"Hurry up, there's still time!" Li Mo shouted loudly, pulling Mei's melted bones and walking towards the end.

But Mei shook off Li Mo's hand just like he had just slapped her hand away.

"I'm going to die. It won't take more than a minute."

"So it's still not too late for you to leave now!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not in a hurry at all."

Mei walked to the shore, reached out her hand to touch the reflection on the water, and exposed the truth: "The ghost that has been following me, the reflection on the water, is it you."

"..."

Li Mo did not answer, but lowered his head. He was unable to give an answer.

In fact, when he saw Mei didn't leave, he had already thought of it——

Mei guessed the truth and realized that she had forgotten herself.

He is Li Mo's memory, and his reflection in the water is Li Mo's instinct.

As for where Li Mo's soul went, he didn't know.

"Although I don't have you in my subjective memory, countless objective facts tell me so."

"I am a very important person to you."

"You are the person I value most."

Li Mo turned his head and whispered, "That's just your guess."

Mei smiled and didn't deny it. "Admittedly, this is just my guess. I've studied the habits of ghosts. Ghosts act strictly according to instinct and rules, and basically don't have the consciousness of living people. At most, their habits and consciousness in life, after being contaminated, will affect their own laws."

"It may sound ridiculous, but with my awful personality, it's hard to imagine me...entering another person's heart. Even if they become a ghost, existing in ghost form, I will try to restrain my ghostly instincts and act according to the free will of a living person."

"I triggered the law of death, but I wasn't attacked. Is this exception on me? No, it's on the ghost."

"I was thinking... I might have forgotten you. It's foolish to rashly trigger the law of death, but... to me, you're probably someone worth dying for."

Li Mo: "You will die. It's not worth it for a guess. This is not a gamble, because you will definitely die if you stay here!"

Mei: "What does that matter?"

"People always focus on something important besides themselves. After I die, there will definitely be traces of my existence in reality. I am curious whether you care about these traces. Even more curious, when these traces disappear from this world, will you still remember them at some point... these insignificant yet precious traces that once existed but are now gone."

"After that, use the lack of logic to create your own logic. Let everything be the way you like it best."

"All the past is a dream, and reality is the continuation of the dream."

"If you really care about someone, recognize his ideas, respect his choices, and acknowledge his value."

"Then you should realize his dream. Practice his philosophy and understand how he sees things in all their beauty and decay."

“That’s the path I’m following.”

“In the final analysis, what the world recognizes is not empty words, but real struggle.”

The blood spread from her fingertips to her wrists, then climbed up her arms until it covered her entire delicate body.

Li Mo hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab something, but found that he could only touch pieces of cold air and strands of blood.

Mei's smile was still on her lips, and her light purple eyes shimmered with the glimmer of the past. "Death is not the end, Li Mo, be patient. I am the only one who can save you. I will never abandon you and leave you alone."

Chapter 9: "The Origin of Strangeness: Eternal Delusion" (5k)

As the words fell, her long purple hair turned into bloodshot, swaying gently as she fell. Her skin gradually lost its physical texture, and her bones completely melted, turning into strands of flowing light and shadow.

At the moment of Mei's death, the false world shattered, and everything returned to the original world where Li Mo had just made a wish.

Time and space stood still, and the world faded.

Li Mo fell into silence because of making a wish.

In the whole world, only Mei slowly woke up from the silence.

"Just as I thought, I'm back."

After waking up, Mei wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

The day finally arrived and everything was going according to plan.

"Then the next step is to save all the timelines destined for destruction, which is the most crucial step."

Mei raised her head, pushed open the black coffin, and looked at the huge black shadow in the sky - "The Origin of Weirdness: Eternal Falsehood".

"I deceived him and everyone just to see you, so please don't let me down."

Mei walked out of the black coffin, which she had brought back from another world with the help of Mei.

Long before Li Mo brought Shi Yu Qiluo back, she had already placed the paper figure in the black coffin to ensure the complete recovery of her final consciousness.

This is the case with paper ghosts. When the consciousness can no longer feel the physical body, the law will transfer the consciousness to the next physical body.

Afterwards, he only needed to hide it from Li Mo, and use the information brought back by Li Mo to go before various monsters with living consciousness, be killed by them, and obtain unique contamination.

There is only one reason for doing this -

If you die a hundred times and still remain intact, you will learn the true name of the strange source.

This is what the notebook told her.

The accuracy is beyond doubt, and whether the notebook has the ability to deceive is not important. Mei will not take any chances on such things.

From the beginning to the end, she and Li Mo were the same kind of people. They didn't trust anyone or anything, and only believed in their own judgment.

With the help of strange objects, he cut off his soul and replaced the third to last page of the notebook with a paper ghost with his own soul.

Even after doing this, the "Mei" that survives is only Mei with memory and consciousness.

It doesn’t matter whether you are yourself or not.

Only you will not deceive yourself.

Only in this way can we help Li Mo.

Mei took a deep breath, revealing an excited expression, and peered at the nothingness shrouding the earth with great excitement——

"The Origin of Weirdness: Eternal Falsehood."

A disordered chaos that cannot be described or expressed in words.

There are rules for everything.

For humans, the rule for meeting Him is to call out His true name.

If one dies a hundred times and remains conscious, Eternal Emptiness will grant three wishes.

But the moment one sees the illusion, both the living person and the strange consciousness will quickly disappear.

Therefore, whether it is a ghost or a human, once the real name is spoken, it will violate the law of the unspeakable and die immediately or fall into eternal silence. It is impossible to make a wish.

However, everything in the world has its own laws, and everything carries the yin and embraces the yang.

After countless experiments, if the same body has both strange consciousness and living consciousness, then the strange law will prioritize the strange consciousness.

And the more strange consciousness there is, the smaller the impact of the rules will be.

Mei made the boldest guess of her life. She only needed to be exposed to enough conscious weirdness and let those special threads entangle herself, so that she could maintain a brief period of sanity when she saw illusions.

"call……"

Mei slowly closed her eyes, letting her heart gradually calm down along with the rise and fall of her chest. When she opened them again, her eyes were unusually deep and sharp.

He took a deep breath, his breath long and powerful.

"Eternal Delusion, I already know your true name."

As soon as the words fell, a bottomless black appeared in the faded world, just like Li Mo's pupils in the passage.

In an instant, darkness seemed to become tangible, opening a huge abyssal eye in a way beyond common sense, and casting its invisible yet endlessly heavy gaze at Mei without any obstruction.

This gaze had no specific form. When it fell on Mei, her heart suddenly stopped, her blood stopped flowing, and her mind was frozen.

"Tsk... not bad..."

Mei bit off a piece of her lip and remained conscious... but not for long.

This is an absolute pollution. Even the slightest contact will instantly silence even the strongest consciousness.

What now protects her from contamination are the strange traces of consciousness left by the paper ghost that once killed her.

"I wish—"

Mei stood up and gently stroked her mutilated lips, and flesh quickly grew back.

"I reject your advent. I reject your advent!"

"Cut off the past and bury this time."

"My little happiness with him..."

After making three wishes, their bodies softened and their consciousness gradually became blurred.

The time for death has arrived.

Strange tentacles emerged from the void, moved slowly, and penetrated Mei's body.

Her eyes became empty and dull. Her consciousness became blurred and her thoughts became chaotic. It was as if countless voices echoed in her mind, trying to pull her into an endless void.

Eternal delusion gradually disappears in this space and time.

The stagnant time is starting to turn again, the faded colors are restored, and the world becomes bright and colorful again.

"Look, is that man going to die?"

"Stay away from her."

Mei walked home with a blank look in her eyes, covered in blood. Her body was like broken glass, with cracks and wounds everywhere, and it could shatter into pieces at any time.

She smiled palely.

I used to think the way home was very short, so short that I could get home after just a few words with Li Mo.

Now I feel the road home is so long, so long that I dare not look up, for fear of falling down and not being able to return home...

"Is it a zombie? Which mental hospital did this patient escape from?"

"I don't know, it's better not to meddle in other people's business..."

The streets are bustling with people coming and going.

Although I was walking on a crowded street, I felt like I was alone, walking in a deserted world.

"Mei! Mei!"

After waking up, Li Mo immediately used his ghostly vision to catch sight of Mei, who was in a dishevel on the street.

Without any hesitation, he moved to her at all costs and rushed forward to find out what was going on.

Obviously, only Mei's own time and space were not frozen, so why did Mei become like this after time turned?

"what……"

A hoarse groan came out of Mei's throat.

Mei walked over, not daring to look at him any longer, as if facing the sun. But it was also like facing the sun, even if she didn't look at him, she could still see him...

The last remnant of consciousness wanted to speak, but no sound came out.

Her current consciousness could only support saying one sentence to Li Mo...

——We must have met countless times. You are the one I love so far... Even if the world keeps repeating itself, I am willing to follow and protect you.

——You are the reason for my living, and I am the support of your humanity.

Countless words flashed across the starry sky of thoughts like shooting stars, disappearing in a flash.

Each one has a different color and temperature, short-lived and dazzling.

It can be gentle and delicate, like the whisper of first dew, gently caressing the heart; or it can be fierce and surging, like a rainstorm on a summer afternoon, stirring up ripples...

But she found that all this was inappropriate.

She didn't need these roundabout confessions at all, because... every word she said to Li Mo was a confession.

Remember what I said.
