Finally, before parting, Kiana returned to the moon and said to Mei:

"Mei just needs to go back and have a good sleep. When you wake up... everything will be fine. The whole world will have changed dramatically!"

As the people who trusted each other the most, Mei of course believed Kiana and nodded with a sweet smile.

"Okay, I believe Kiana."

After returning, Mei fell asleep with anticipation.

Kiana on the moon manipulated the power of the end to cover the entire earth, but he found something wrong in the process.

An energy that does not belong to Honkai was mixed in, distorted, obscure, and uncontrollable.

"We have to stop..."

Kiana instantly realized that there was something wrong with this energy and wanted to stop herself from using the power of the end to cover the earth, but something strange happened.

The huge eyeball of the Cocoon of the End began to bleed. Before Kiana could react, the blood had spread to her waist, and the lunar base was instantly submerged.

"Use the power of the Herrscher of the Void to send these out."

"Wait, why... my connection with the imaginary space is broken?"

Kiana wanted to manipulate space to send the blood away, but when she tried to connect to the imaginary space, she found that the connection had been broken.

This means that she has lost her Herrscher power and cannot use Honkai energy.

"How can this be?"

Even in the restraint barrier and the quantum sea, the connection between the Herrscher and the imaginary space will not be cut off, it is just impossible to connect, but not completely unable to sense.

"Well……!"

Before Kiana could react, blood had already flooded her head, cutting off her contact with the air.

Kiana tried to swim to the surface of the blood, but her limbs kept moving, and a large amount of blood continued to flow into her ears, mouth, nose, and eyes...

Chapter 16 Who Killed Me, Who Killed the Mockingbird?

The intense tearing sensation made Kiana curl up into a ball, unable to continue thinking normally, and her whole body was convulsing.

The blood completely submerged Kiana and swallowed her, and took control of the contaminated power of the end in Kiana's place, covering the entire earth.

"Ugh!"

A brief, heart-wrenching roar was heard in the city, and every human body infected by the power of the end was deformed.

Their appearance gradually became unique, and their internal organs disappeared one by one, with the heart being the first to disappear.

The noise did not last long. In just a dozen seconds, billions of people became heartless corpses.

They struggled frantically before dying, but to no avail.

As long as they remain on Earth, they cannot escape the strange pollution, and their limbs will be cut and separated.

Just like how Li Mo’s limbs were cut and separated.

Li Mo suffered the bitter fruit of the stigma on Mei's back, and now, this bitter fruit fell upon everyone.

Lines of collapse and erosion appeared on the broken arms and limbs. Under the gray sky, on the roads, in the alleys, in the stairwells, in the houses... corpses filled every empty space.

The wailing lasted only a moment, and then the world came to an end with a whimper.

Or maybe the world was not destroyed, but humans destroyed themselves.

The early morning sun filtered into the room through the gaps in the curtains, casting a warm orange glow.

The girl slowly woke up from her soft blankets. She opened her eyes slightly, a dazed look flickering in them. The sunlight filtered through the window, caressing her pure face and reflecting the hope and vitality within her heart.

"It's the next day, Kiana should have done it... What does the world look like now?"

Mei stretched her lazy body and got up lightly. Stepping on the soft carpet, she changed into a smart and simple casual outfit.

The morning air was filled with a light fragrance, as if washing away the fatigue of the final battle.

Mei quietly walked to the window and drew aside the curtains. In an instant, bright sunlight filled the room, illuminating everything.

She looked out the window. In the distance, the grass on the leaves sparkled with crystal dewdrops. The breeze blew, and the flowers in the grass swayed gently, emitting a fragrant aroma...

What made Mei feel strange was that she did not see any servants taking care of the garden in her own villa.

But Mei didn't take it to heart. She walked out of the villa with joy and prepared to go to the street to welcome the new world.

On the way out of the villa, Mei said to herself: "First, I'll go to St. Freya to find the principal, Bronya, and the class monitor, say hello to them, and then tell my dad that I won't be going home tonight."

Because she wants to leave the Earth and go to the moon to see how Kiana is doing and share the joy of saving the world.

Although the two have just separated, Mei still cares about Kiana's living habits.

Wouldn't Kiana return to her paramecium state just after leaving me?

Then I have to torture Kiana severely.

Mei was in a very good mood and had already made plans for a wonderful day before she even went out.

But just when Mei arrived at the door of her house, a strong sour smell hit her brain.

Mei couldn't help but cover her nose and said angrily: "It stinks, what happened..."

She continued forward and suddenly found a body at the door of her house. The body was that of an adult man, and the side profile looked very familiar... but Mei couldn't find the corresponding person in her mind.

"Why is there a corpse here?" Mei was very puzzled. She stretched out her hand to turn the corpse over to look at the face.

The moment her fingers touched the corpse, Mei's heart beat violently, and a memory that did not belong to her suddenly appeared in her mind.

As if she were experiencing it herself, Mei felt as if she were on the operating table, with chains shackled to her limbs, and the doctors around her looked at her indifferently as they injected shot after shot of anesthetic into her body.

But she remained conscious until she saw the doctors take out the blades and cut her chest, over and over again...

The sharp knife cut through the skin, and the sternum was roughly severed, revealing the heart inside the body.

Then the knife cut the blood vessels of the heart brutally, and the severe pain almost made Mei faint.

But she couldn't control herself. This was not her memory, nor her experience.

Mei felt the same pain completely from the first person perspective.

How could they do this! Meiyi was puzzled as to why the surgery was so cruel and completely disregarded the feelings of the person involved.

Mei was filled with righteous indignation and mentally blamed the person who performed the surgery, until she heard the doctor's urgent words...

"It's a success! Quick! Transplant the heart into Miss Mei's body!"

Mei's head seemed to explode, and at this moment, she turned her head from the first-person perspective to look at Mei on the next bed.

Suddenly, Mei's consciousness was pulled back to reality, her eyes widened, her chest heaved violently, and she gasped for breath.

"What did you just see...was that...me?"

Mei tried to calm herself down and recover from this sudden shock.

There was a hint of panic in the silent air, which made her feel even more uneasy.

The scene in her memory was a heart transplant operation, and the recipient was herself.

Thinking of this, Mei couldn't help but put her hand on her chest, her heart beating up and down, rumbling.

I did stay in the hospital for a year, and there were a few nights when I felt particularly sleepy. Now I think it must be because my father put some sleeping pills in it in advance.

Then he was sent to the operating room, injected with anesthesia, and underwent a heart transplant.

"Why didn't Dad tell me? If it's just a heart transplant...it's not like I can't accept it, or is it that the person who gave me the transplant didn't want to?"

Mei recalled the doctor's brutal method in her memory, and she wouldn't want to do that either.

But there is a bigger question right now, why can she enter into empathetic memories when she touches the corpse?

Whose memory is that?

"I want to know who transplanted my heart..."

Mei suppressed her nausea and touched the corpse again.

This time she tried her best to maintain her self-awareness, and the scene in her memory was still the operating room.

Just like last time, she felt her chest being cut open, her organs being removed and transplanted to Mei's memory.

"This time it's the liver, and in a week we'll have the lungs."

"It won't be long before we can transplant all of this monster's organs into Miss Mei's body. Then we can enjoy our retirement with the bonus given by President Raiden... As for this guy, he's really pitiful."

The doctors' voices were vague and intermittent, and they were speaking incomprehensible words.

But Mei heard the most important sentence clearly, which was to transplant all the monster's organs into her body.

Mei woke up suddenly, her consciousness pulled away from her memories. In a trance, Mei put her hand where her liver was.

"Dad locked me up in the hospital for a year just to give me an organ transplant? But why?"

Mei is no longer a child, she knows what this means. There must be something wrong with her body, so her father would find someone to perform surgery on her and even promise the doctor a generous bonus.

"For the last time, this time I have to be patient and read all the memories." Mei made up her mind to find out the truth.

"It's said that transplanting parts from Mei Raiden's body into another person can temporarily delay the strange effects of the stigmata..."

"You mean...she's been surviving this way?"

"Well, as a price, another person has to bear all of Raiden Mei's injuries. However, as she ages, transplanting parts alone can no longer delay the onset of her natural stigmata."

"So the president found him?"

"Yes, a monster that can't die no matter what. He bears all the pain for Mei Raiden, including all the suffering in the future. As long as he doesn't die, Mei Raiden will always be safe."

"..."

Mei heard the doctor's conversation in its entirety, and at this point, she learned the truth about the stigmata.

I also understood why my father asked me to call him brother, and what kind of person he was.

Mei had experienced the pain of the stigmata when she was a child. At night, she would curl up in bed, sweating all over. She couldn't hold a single position for more than half a minute. She would tremble, sweat, feel tired, nauseous, and vomit...

Fortunately it didn't last long.

But the torture of memories goes far beyond that: blood drawing, amputation, crushing hearts...

One year, two years, five years...it seemed like there would never be an end.

In the memories, Mei was endlessly tortured from a first-person perspective and treated in various cruel and bloody ways.

Her eyes were removed and given to the blind.

Her limbs were severed and sewn to the mutilated body,

Her blood was drained from the water source to cure all diseases,

……

……

The dark room and the cage of humiliation and oppression broke her wings and deprived her of her life.

Just like the robin in the biographical story, it was persecuted to death and could only helplessly hold the blood in its mouth over and over again, making pale and weak cries.

Who Killed the Mockingbird?

Morality is like an iron chain that locks its limbs.

Who Killed the Mockingbird?

Using ignorance as a knife, cut off its wings.

Who Killed the Mockingbird?

Lies are like a black cloth that covers its eyes.

Who Killed the Mockingbird?

Use justice as a cage and block its throat.

Who is the robin?

Is it her Raiden Mei?

No, the robin is Li Mo.

Suddenly, Mei was pulled out of her memory. She collapsed on the ground, her eyes trembling uncontrollably as she looked at her snow-white, flawless hands. The scenes of reality and memory kept overlapping.
