Fog Formula-Warning Book of Fog City Search Chief's Strange Talk

"..."

Seeing that Shenxiu was silent for a few seconds, he didn't answer the question for a while.

"The thing you gave him was yesterday's appraisal report, and I can roughly guess what was written in it. You also said this morning, [hatred is the best courage]." Nanami and Gong said with a slightly trembling voice.

"That's why he wanted revenge, to seek revenge from the mist that made him lose everything. But, last night..."

"We killed people, didn't we?"

There was obvious shock in his voice.

"Yes, you and me?"

"...The report I wrote to him was euthanasia." After seeing Shenxiu silent for a few seconds, he finally put down the book and stood up from behind the chair.

"But in fact, we have no evidence to prove that the fish is really the missing villager. We just found a face comparison similar to it on the comparison library. Maybe it's just a coincidence, maybe the strange fish deliberately imitated the person's appearance. In fact The possibilities of such things are almost endless, or rather. If you feel that this is a comfort, you can choose to believe so."

Jian Shenxiu said, but Qi Haihe Gong's expression had not had time to relax. He immediately changed the tone and said directly.

"But if you choose to face the truth...then I'll tell you—yes."

His words were indifferent, but his expression was firm.

"In this absurd world with fog, you can't find conclusive evidence for many things one by one. Many times you can only rely on intuition or feeling, or--to make all the preparations. So face-to-face When dealing with this kind of problem, you often have only one choice, and that is the law of the razor."

"If it's not necessary, don't increase the entity." Qi Haihe Gong's voice was astringent.

"Yes, when there are no more clear clues, don't make redundant assumptions. Whatever the clues point to, that is the answer." Jian Shenxiu nodded.

"The strange fish had the face of a missing fisherman and was washed ashore with the victim. Even if the conclusion disgusts us, we can only choose it."

"...Does it have to be like this?"

Nanami and Gong bowed their heads in silence. His body trembled slightly, and his fingertips were visibly trembling as they hung down on both sides of his body.

"In fact, you have already guessed this situation, haven't you? Before the dissection started, you had already made a prediction, and you had already noticed the possibility before the comparison. Then why continue the dissection? Why? You can still cut the knife so calmly."

"...that's a human being."

He said like a dream, as if everything that happened these days was just an unusually sudden nightmare.

He killed, less than 12 hours ago. He once accurately commanded an autopsy, and dissected a...

[Humanity]

"Because we have no way to save him." But Jian Shenxiu just interrupted his confusion with a cold voice.

"We have found a lot of mutations caused by the fog, and there has never been a case where they can mutate back. Even if we finally eliminated the weirdness, the ending is the same. And this mutation is extremely painful, even if it is only a partial mutation, It will still cause a lot of burden, not to mention this kind of whole body mutation. If this is the case, and I have lost all consciousness, and have fallen to this level, it is better to leave cleanly."

"..."

This answer made Qihai and Gong choke, and the white-haired boy looked a little confused for a moment. He still didn't seem to recover from the huge shock, he just raised his head and looked at Jian Shenxiu, his expression seemed a little gloomy, and seemed to be full of loss and bewilderment.

"I won't say [maybe it can be cured in the future], and [this kind of thing should be left to him to make his own choice]. After all, as I said just now, I am not a person with such a high moral bottom line. I have no kindness , and it’s not that fair.”

The young man spoke slowly, lowering his head while speaking, his silver-white hair slanted down on his face, showing a sense of embarrassment.

"Um?"

Seeing Shenxiu heard the words, he was stunned.

"But..." the boy continued.

"I thought you were."

"..."

So instead, Shenxiu was silent. He looked at the young man in front of him, and was speechless for the first time.

"Painful?"

There was a moment of gentleness in Jian Shenxiu's expression. He took a step forward, walked in front of the boy, stretched out his hand, and rubbed the boy's head.

"Then keep that feeling in your head and keep it that way."

"..."

The white-haired boy raised his head and looked at him with red eyes.

"I'll tell you that you were doing the right thing. You didn't save him, but you did what you could to give him a break."

Seeing God corrects the way of color.

"But I will not try to appease your pain, or give you any advice. Because pain is not all bad things, some pain will make you have a real sense of life. For people in this era, no pain It's a terrible thing, and numbness is the first step to dehumanization."

"What about you?" Qihai and Gong asked him hoarsely. "Are you numb?"

"I'm not numb either, at least not now." Jian Shenxiu looked calm and his eyes were as sharp as a knife.

"I will only remember all these pains, every pump of my heart, every dilation of my blood vessels. When I judge the sin, they will be my driving force, pushing me on this road Go ahead and move forward.”

"...Okay, it's almost done."

Then he was quiet for a while, relatively speechless with the boy. When the boy's mood calmed down slightly and he returned to that indifferent boy, he suddenly smiled and patted him on the head.

"Go about your business. I still have unfinished manuals to read. At six o'clock this afternoon, I still have something to do."

"Six o'clock?" The young man nodded first, then he was stunned when he heard the time Jian Shenxiu said, and subconsciously said.

"Isn't the scheduled time for the dive at seven o'clock?"

"The scheduled time for the dive is seven o'clock, because I still have a curse on me. The time when the curse occurs is six o'clock. The last person who was cursed drowned himself. I can't carry this curse dive."

Seeing that Shenxiu said calmly, he suddenly pointed out something that was almost forgotten by Qi Haihe Gong.

"This..." Only then did Qihai Hegong react, and for a moment he was even a little afraid to see Shenxiu's face, as if that face was too shining, so shining that it would hurt people's pupils.

He just subconsciously walked out following the chief inspector's clapping, walked outside the tent, and finally hesitated. Looking back at Shenxiu.

"See Mr. God."

"Huh?" Jian Shenxiu tilted his head.

"If the victim is going to turn into that kind of weird fish, and it's impossible to change back. Then this rescue...is there really any point?"

"How do you know if you don't try. What if they can last a minute longer? What if they last until I come to save them?"

However, seeing Shenxiu just chuckled.

"If you can't change things, you will suffer silently, and if you have not yet determined things, you will go all out for them. Besides, under which abyss..."

"And [weird], waiting for my trial."
