Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 154 "Karin" in Quotes

It was dawn, and the scent of water lilies wafted from the small pond in the garden outside the window, and a row of robins were jumping on the telephone poles outside the window.

Someone rang outside the bedroom: "Good morning, Mr. Traveler in a foreign land. I'll bring you breakfast."

This sound was the singing that continued until 12 o'clock after Mayor Keso left.Shangluo, who was originally in a daze, woke up immediately.

"Mr. Traveler, are you there?"

"Yes." Shangluo in pajamas hastily put on his school uniform and went to open the door.

Karin stood in the doorway with a breakfast tray of cream of mushroom soup and toast.

Karin changed her hairstyle today and wore a blue headband that let her hair fall down the sides.

"Thank you." Shang Luo took the tray.After Mayor Keso's narration last night, his mood is a bit complicated now, and he doesn't know how to treat "Karin" in front of him.

However, to his surprise, Karin also stood there after taking the tray, as if she wanted to say something.

Her eyes are so close.Let Shangluo also confirm her identity—these eyes are the same as those I saw Caesar in the night of Alexander, with a faint light flickering in the pupils.

"Sorry." Karin's eyes dodged, "I"

"Do you have anything to say?"

Karin really wanted to say something.After hesitating again and again, she still shook her head: "I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. Anyway, please enjoy your breakfast. Please rest assured that this is made by Karin's mother. The soup she made is delicious, really delicious. tasty."

After speaking, Karin turned away and walked to the other end of the corridor.

[Now that Karin is mentioned, it may be necessary to add quotation marks.]

Shang Luo nodded.He originally thought that only Mayor Kelso knew about it, but now it seemed that "Karin" herself knew about it.

"She was hesitant."

[I recognized her expression, 89% of it is apology. 】

"What is she apologizing for?"

[Maybe he is apologizing for his own birth.After all, she is Karin's counterpart.I just don't know when she knew it. 】

"I'm afraid I knew it from the beginning. The mayor said that she studied very hard and often helped the family with housework. She was as perfect as a treasure given to her by God. I am afraid that from the beginning, what drove her was apology but She has nothing to apologize for, she doesn't have the right to choose."

【No.Changelings are also new lives, and they cannot decide when and where they will be born.It's just sad to be born in someone else's body. 】

"But in the final analysis, this home belongs to Karin herself." Shang Luo put the tray on the indoor dining table.This thick soup with bread gave him a sense of sight of fried dough sticks soaked in soy milk, and the taste was familiar to him.And like Karin said, it was delicious.

"Anyway, I don't want to put Karin in quotes for the time being. It's a tough question to decide, but in the end, the biggest victims are Karin herself, and her family. Even this... this quoted 'card Lin' was also a victim. It's such a sad story, all played by the power of the forest."

[This is the inescapable karma of the Romans.Anyway, what are you going to do? 】

"Karin, put Karin's own interests first, that's all I can do. After ensuring that Karin is protected, I will consider other people. I'm not an angel, I can't make everyone get the best ending , I can only help those who are most in need. Tsk, why is this problem so difficult to solve, it’s like I have the switch of the tram in my hand, and I have to control whether it kills one person or kills a group of people.”

【Well, what would you choose? 】

"This problem is based on the premise that people must be killed no matter what. So I can only do the math. Since I have to kill people no matter what, I can only kill the one with the fewest number of people. This is of course It’s not a happy ending, and it also made my sympathy suffer. But—my sympathy has a limit. My sympathy will not overflow, it will eventually stop at the boundary of ritual. But I will try my best .”

He sighed: "And it's not like I don't have a choice, right? Who came up with the problem, why do I have to answer it according to his thinking? I still have a chance now, I should overturn that tram!"

[You are not allowed to speak ill of the train!The tram is so cute, why do you scold it. 】

"Where are you going? Why do you always like to empathize with strange things, such as file folders or something... By the way, you are weird. But this is a metaphor, a metaphor."

[Metaphors don't work either.The tram is the most innocent, it doesn't know anything yet, it was taken hostage in front of it, and blood was splashed all over its face.Woooooo~ The tram is the most pitiful thing. 】

"Okay, okay, I'll change the metaphor when I think about it."

He continues to eat.The bisque tasted really good.

"Good morning, foreigners from Cathay." Titus looked refreshed, "Did you all sleep well last night? It's time for class."

"It seems that someone is vaguely playing a broken record." Wen Yuan held her head, "I didn't hear it clearly, but it must be more difficult for people sleeping next to me."

"Is there?" Han Xingzhi was stunned for a moment, "I can sleep on my head, so I don't feel it."

"Xuanxiu is really good, but I seem to have eaten too much gas. After playing games for a while, I exhausted all my energy before falling asleep." Lu Liang yawned, "But I seem to have heard it too. But at that time I was Playing games, I don’t seem to be able to hear you very clearly. That place is the closest to Shangluo, isn’t it?”

"Ah, yes. A broken record."

In a sense, it was indeed a broken record.Unlike the myth, it is not an ugly little monster sent from the forest, but a daughter who has become "perfect" because of guilt.However, she is still incomplete. After all, she from the forest has not been able to escape the wear and tear of time, and she is broken.Even she knows it herself.

Titus gave him a meaningful look, then tapped on the blackboard:
"So everyone, our introduction to occult science is divided into two parts. Before the second half of the class talks about the theory, the first half of our class will be used to study the objects of this mission: the Golden Branch and the Forest King. The so-called myth is The history shown through stories is the eternal continuity of history.”

He said exactly the same thing as Mayor Kelso—this didn't surprise Shangluo, because that's what he told the mayor.

"The forest king we have to face, its origin is far longer than the written history, it is the 'witch king'. The witch king does not refer to those kings with magic power in the game, the witch king here is an anthropological expert There are nouns. It refers to the early human civilization history, those early human shamans and chieftains gathered together, rulers with both gods and human nature, are one of the earliest forms of human power. Many witch kings until quite In recent times, it still has the right to rule, such as the forest king in front of you. Yes, it can still become the secular ruler of Lake Nemi, which is true. However..."

He said sternly: "I don't want anyone who still has a choice to take this bloody road...it's a terrible road."
