Has this day finally arrived?
I didn't expect it to be this way.
Mei was speechless, slowly closed her eyes, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, but this action seemed particularly ironic in Li Mo's eyes.
Li Mo used even more force, so much so that Mei's face turned pale instantly, and the corners of her mouth trembled slightly.
"I'll know after you finish that thing, right?"
The air around seemed to freeze, and time became unusually slow at this moment.
Li Mo's chest heaved violently, each breath accompanied by a heavy gasp. He tried hard to suppress the anger and confusion in his heart, his voice hoarse and trembling.
Mei opened her eyes, her gaze piercing through Li Mo's anger and gazing directly at the untouched softness deep within his heart. After a moment's thought, she said perfunctorily, "I don't understand what you're talking about."
Li Mo: "I came here with the answer. Even now, you still want to play dumb, right?"
Mei: “You asked about the notebook.”
Li Mo: "Yes, but so what?"
Mei: "I think the notebook was only opened after you escaped the triple death state and regained your emotions, right?"
"Li Mo, calm down. Think carefully about why the notebook said these things during that special period."
"Also, don't forget. The notebook is a strange thing. You can't trust it completely. After dealing with it for so many years, you should understand this better than I do."
Facing Mei's persuasion, Li Mo said firmly: "But it won't lie, but you will."
"..."
Li Mo's hands trembled slightly, and a faint light leaked through his fingers, illuminating Mei's pale and cold face.
Mei's indifference left Li Mo at a loss as to what to do.
He questioned with anger, just wanting an answer, an explanation, a reason...
An excuse that can convince myself.
But Mei did nothing, just looked at him quietly, without explanation or argument, as if she accepted the truth of what was said in the notebook.
Let the weirdness continue forever and hurt more people...
He couldn't accept this kind of thing.
"I've been telling you everything since a long time ago, no matter the strange objects or strange information. But you've been hiding it. I didn't care at first, because I believed that you and I shared the same ideals and had the same self-awareness as human beings. But why did you do this? We can choose not to save them, but at least we can't choose to destroy more people!"
(17) The Drowned Man and the Deep Sea (4k5)
Li Mo's voice gradually grew louder, almost breaking, with a faint cry in it that shouldn't have been there.
He released his right hand from Mei's wrist, clenched his fist and punched the wall next to Mei's head.
The strong impact made the whole house tremble for a few moments.
Paduo, who had come out to look for food, was so frightened by this scene that her ears dropped to the floor. She quickly turned on the air conditioner and rushed to Li Mo to comfort him, "Hey, hey, hey! Brother Mo, calm down. Don't be angry. Don't be angry. I'll turn on the air conditioner to cool you down. Dr. Mei and we are all family. Don't hurt one of our own!"
Shigure Kirara, who was standing by, covered her chest with her hands and looked at the two of them worriedly.
After spending a long time together, Shigure Qiluo has a good understanding of Mei.
He is the absolute brain of this family and the leader of Li Mo's team.
Her intelligence and talent are unquestionable.
But even so, if it really comes to the time to take sides, Shi Yu Qiluo will still choose to stand on Li Mo's side, regardless of right or wrong.
Li Mo’s choice must be correct, that’s it!
"So, are you confronting me now?" Mei remained calm and composed, but the light in her eyes became much sharper.
Li Mo bit his lip, loosened his hand, took two steps back, and looked at Mei pleadingly: "I know you must have a reason, Mei, use a reasonable reason to convince me..."
Mei replied calmly, "There's no reason. As you can see, the notebook tells you, I'm trying to make the weirdness last forever. Let them exist in any time and space, whether in the past, present, or future. If you want to stop me, then try to kill me, it's that simple."
"After all, you should have seen that scene. I don't know how you returned to the present from the past. You may have experienced a near-death experience, but it doesn't matter to me. My goal is about to be achieved."
"It's my freedom to do what I want, and it's your freedom to stop me. I won't allow you to interfere with my choices, but I won't stop you from killing me either."
"So... Li Mo, what are you going to do now? Are you going to kill me, the one you trust the most, or are you going to endure the sin of me killing everyone?"
"There is no other choice, you can only choose one."
Mei's tone lacked any hesitation or excuse; it was more like a pronouncement of an unchangeable fact. Every word she spoke was like a hard, icy spike, piercing the flesh of conscience.
There was no warmth in his eyes, only endless indifference and determination.
At this moment, the relationship between the two became that of judge and sinner.
When the presiding judge sentences a criminal to death, there are only two options before the criminal: resist or accept.
"Why……"
"There's no reason. I don't need to tell you what I'm going to do. Since you already know, there's no reason for me to explain."
"Why! Why would you do this? I consider you my closest family member!"
Li Mo gritted his teeth, drew out the demon sword Akazenzakura, and pressed the blade against Mei's neck, but did not touch her at all.
Once the blade cuts a hole in Mei's body, the demon sword Akazenzakura will trigger its law and swallow Mei up in an instant.
Even though Li Mo's mentality was already unbalanced at this time, he still couldn't bring himself to kill his once trusted companion.
This confirms what the passerby said when he left: Compared to losing his own humanity, the most painful thing for him is the tragic end of those around him.
Mei looked at the blood-red demon sword that was filled with a monstrous and strange aura, her eyes bulged and stared at her intently.
Obviously, this is a strange thing that Li Moxin obtained, and it is very powerful.
Since it didn't cut her skin to threaten her, the knife's principle was probably a medium related to flesh and blood.
Mei raised her hand, placed it on the demon sword, and pushed it away without using any force.
"Family... You treat me as family, but I have never treated you as family, Li Mo... From the beginning to the end, I have never treated you as family..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
After Mei finished speaking, everyone in the family fell silent. No one dared to speak, and no one offered any words of comfort.
Because this sentence has already indicated the breakdown of the relationship between the two and there is no chance of easing it.
"Clang!"
The red-stained cherry blossoms fell to the ground with a crisp sound. Li Mo's face turned pale as paper in an instant. His body retreated repeatedly as if he had lost his balance. Finally, he stabilized in the corner of the wall, lowered his head, and laughed, the sound was barely audible.
"Hahaha……"
"Is this your answer? Mei...is this your answer..."
Li Mo repeated it over and over again.
"What are the experiences we've shared, through life and death, really worth? In your eyes, besides the people and things you can exploit, is there anything more precious?"
"You have a chance to change all this." Mei replied softly, gave Li Mo a cold look, then turned and left.
The back figure looked particularly indifferent in the dim light, undoubtedly telling Li Mo: Once you set foot on some roads, there is no chance to turn back.
Li Mo leaned against the wall motionless, staring at the ground with trembling eyes, but his vision became increasingly blurred.
He could easily kill the defenseless Mei and prevent this tragedy from happening.
But he couldn't do it, but he had to do it.
Li Mo picked up the magic sword on the ground again and walked forward slowly step by step.
When he came behind Mei and held her above his head, his lip was bitten off, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
Mei didn't resist, and didn't even turn around to look at Li Mo.
This is a great opportunity.
The extremely powerful Li Mo and the weak and unresisting ordinary consciousness Mei.
The outcome of the battle can be seen at a glance, but the powerful one ultimately loses due to his hesitation.
He couldn't bring himself to take action against his former family.
Mei side-glanced at Li Mo, who had no killing intent at all, pursed her lips, her eyes full of complexity.
But it soon changed and became calm and indifferent.
"Since you can't stop me, then try to save more people. Only in this way can you alleviate the guilt in your heart. Don't forget that your conscience has long fallen. What you will face next is an even more cruel hell."
Mei is not a talkative person, especially to his enemies.
Now that Li Mo is standing against her, she should turn around and leave.
Only Mei understands that there is more to every word.
“People suffer mentally because of greed and physically because of violence.”
"For those who possess great strength and fighting instincts, fighting and desire are always an unavoidable test."
"You are now far stronger than your weak former self, but this doesn't mean your future path will be easier. On the contrary, the deeper you fall into the abyss, the more you will glimpse the unpredictable darkness."
"We will meet again in the future. That place is both a transit station and a destination."
"Goodbye, Li Mo."
The moment she turned around, Mei's expression softened.
Only I can protect you...
That's the only way to protect you...
Just like "last time".
Ultimately, no matter what point in time, what the world recognizes is not empty words, but real struggle.
"Li Mo..."
"Brother Mo..."
"..."
Shigure Qiluo and Paduo both came to Li Mo's side, while Mei followed Mei's footsteps.
No matter what, Meiyi hopes that Li Mo is alive. Separating now is for a better reunion in the future.
Half of the people in the house left in an instant. Li Mo slumped on the ground, staring at his left hand with lifeless eyes.
No, it's not over yet.
Li Mo closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"I, Li Mo, made a wish, and the strangeness that Mei had brought about fell into silence..."
Li Mo is well aware of the price this wish will bring. He might fall into a long period of silence, ten thousand years, a hundred thousand years, a million years...
He didn't know, but as long as the essence of the pseudo-man was still there, he could wake up at any time in his own body after making a wish.
This is an alternative way to avoid the cost of making a wish.
However, the expected cost did not occur.
Since he didn't lose consciousness and the strangeness in his body didn't subside, could it be that Mei had to bear this price?
But I clearly made the wish in Li Mo's name, so I should bear most of the cost.
Li Mo opened his eyes in confusion, and the scene before him made him stand still. He looked at the colorless world around him in disbelief.
Everything around, whether people or food, lost its color and became increasingly dull.
"Qiluo? Paduo?"
Li Mo reached out and touched it, and found that time for the two of them seemed to be frozen, but there was no trace of Guiqi around.
What's more, if it was Guiqi who froze time and space, he would definitely be the first to be affected and the first person to be locked.
