Odd Containment Specialist

Xia Shou's steps slowed down again, because Alice's hand on his neck tightened again, but this time it didn't seem to suffocate him.

"You came in too, or are you going to come in?" A strange voice came from the front, and then a bamboo hat appeared in the field of vision, followed by a raincoat, a raincoat made of long blue-green thin gems.

When Xia Shou saw the other person's face, he recognized him in an instant.

S-level investigator, Edward!

The person who disappeared after entering the Blood Demon House, and still did not appear after the Blood Demon House was solved, but the life lamp was still on.

What a strange illusion, Xia Shou thought, and then planned to pass by the other person.

Edward spoke: "I am not your illusion, I have been investigating you all the time, to be honest, I almost missed it."

Xia Shou ignored it and continued to walk up.

Edward flashed in front of Xia Shou and directly raised a sign with words written on it.

[Stop, do you think you are the special one? Traveling from another world to this world, suddenly gaining some mysterious power, and then becoming the protagonist of this world?

Do you think it is possible? Your original world should be a very ordinary world, a world where all kinds of weirdness do not exist. 】

He continued: "Turn off the communicator, I am not an illusion, they can hear me talking."

Xia Shou frowned slightly and slowed down his pace.

The other party knew that he was a traveler.

But the lighthouse of fear can read the things that people fear in their subconscious mind, so it is normal to be seen through.

"Do you still think of me as an illusion? This is the scary thing about this place, and it is probably the reason why that person chose this place.

He had already calculated this day, knowing that even if I came in and blocked your way forward, I couldn't stop you, because you would regard everything you encounter as an illusion.

It is indeed a bit difficult to win your trust in just a few words, and I have thought of this obstacle a long time ago, but I have to try.

I will ask a few questions, think about it yourself."

After speaking, Edward took out another stack of cards and handed it to Xia Shou.

Xia Shou took the cards cautiously and read them one by one. There were questions written on them long ago.

[Are you sure that the personality in the Death Note is really good for you? Can its words really be trusted? ]

[Shangguan Yan, how much do you know about this person? She sent you to the Blood Demon House and gave you blood that can increase your abnormal level, and the price was just to let you work overtime. Is this reasonable? Do you think you are worth it? ]

[In your opinion, you may be worth it. After all, you really have a lot of cards, Dorian Gray's pocket watch, the Death Note, and some secrets that even I can't find out clearly, but from Shangguan Yan's perspective, she should not know, so her decision is very subtle. ]

[Two possibilities.

1. If she doesn't know your cards, then you are a worthless person, and she has no reason to arrange this urgent task for you.

2. If she knows your cards, then how did she know? What does she want to do by using you? ]

Xia Shou stared at the questions on the card and fell into deep thought.

It must be said that the questions raised by Edward are very worthy of thinking, and all kinds of suspicions are logical. Xia Shou has also thought about it many times.

In terms of the level of hallucination, this Edward is a very realistic and deceptive hallucination, and it is even impossible to tell whether it is a hallucination or not.

But on the other hand, Xia Shou also had an idea, that is, to ask the other party the truth.

If the lighthouse of fear can give a logically self-consistent explanation, then even if this explanation is not the truth, it has great value, at least providing a reasonable thinking route.

In this way, the use of the lighthouse of fear is not only to scare people, it is even a universal answering machine that can give information and ideas that the parties are completely unaware of.

"It's interesting, just say it directly, what is going on? If you really found the truth, it doesn't matter if you tell it now, and you can still win my trust, but if you can't even say anything useful, then you are an illusion that can only play conspiracy theories." Xia Shou said coldly.

"I'm waiting for you to say this. Let's stop and talk. Stopping won't affect you. If you want to continue going up after listening to what I say, I can't stop you.

But I want to remind you that the current Fear Lighthouse is not in normal state. You will definitely die if you go up.

Before I continue, you'd better turn off the communication device. People outside will not use this to help you. It's purely for research. So if you turn off this device, there will be no loss for your tower climbing operation this time."

Xia Shou decisively turned off the communication device. As the other party said, the one-way communication setting can only be used for research afterwards, and it is of no help to the ongoing tower climbing operation.

"You say it." Xia Shou said.

"You will be possessed and replaced by the person in the death record notes." Edward sat down on the steps again and got straight to the point.

Xia Shou stopped and sat down on the steps. He also wanted to take a break and verify his new ideas.

But just as he sat down, Alice's hand around his neck suddenly tightened, and then a new transparent hand emerged from the air, grabbed his arm, and tried to pull him up!

But why would Alice pull herself up? Isn't this Alice's existence just to scare him and make him escape from the lighthouse?

"Hey, why do you look like that? You don't even have the patience to sit down and listen to me for five minutes, do you? Or do you have a bleeding illusion?" Edward looked puzzled.

Xia Shou stared at Edward with his eyes, enduring the increasing pressure on his neck, his brain working fast.

This Edward can't see Alice, so Alice is an illusion? This Edward is the real climber? !

Edward said that the tower has become fatal, which is exactly the same as the reminder of seeking death, and now Alice who forces herself to climb the tower is the fatal factor?

Although it seems reasonable at first glance, in an illusion, everything may be an illusion.

Edson said that the fear factors in the fear lighthouse will cooperate to make the fear reasonable, so now Alice's action of forcing him to continue climbing the tower may also be a disguise specially made to stimulate his inner desire to escape.

"Go ahead, I'm listening." Xia Shou said hoarsely, not letting Alice pull him, and continued to move towards the top of the lighthouse.

"Okay, then I'll briefly summarize what I've investigated. You should know something about me. I disappeared in the Blood Demon House ten years ago, but my life lamp is still on in the Control Bureau. After you passed the Blood Demon House, you didn't find any trace of me, right?"

"That's right."

"According to the archives, the architectural layout of the Blood Demon House ten years ago was not upside down, and the gravity was completely normal. The person who turned it into what it is now is me, in order to give those who enter the Blood Demon House through dreams a clear reminder that this is not reality, but a dream.

The Control Bureau has far less information about that house than I do. That house will randomly capture people who are sleeping, usually disabled people, because disabled people have a stronger desire for a healthy body. , it is easier to attract the blood demon, and they will kill each other in that room, and by devouring other people's limbs, they can make up for their own missing parts in reality.

For example, if I don't have a right hand, then I will devour other people's right arms. As long as the number of times is large, the other party's right arm will lose its function in reality, and my right arm will be broken and regenerated, becoming a healthy one.

That room is such a place where people plunder each other's physical resources. You should have investigated this, right? "

Xia Shou frowned slightly and nodded slowly. The conclusion given by Edward can be consistent with Liu Guangyao's self-narration. Liu Guangyao's right hand is seriously corrupted, but it can still coexist with the body. In addition, Liu Guangyao did enter the blood demon's house in his dream, participated in the escape, and really met Edward.

All of what Edward said is right.

"Go on."

"But before I took action, the rules of the Blood Demon House were actually even worse. Those distorted spaces all came from reality, and they were all scenes that the participants were very familiar with. The people who participated in the escape were often from the same social circle, and a disabled person was responsible for hunting down relatives and friends in reality.

Of course, this kind of dream projection into reality would not be so extreme, and the cost of limb mutilation became less serious after being shared by many people. However, another more troublesome hidden danger also arose, that is, the hunters could not distinguish between dreams and reality at all, because the Blood Demon House's imitation of reality was extremely perfect.

This led to many people misjudging reality as dreams and killing their friends. This is the very famous Blood Demon incident, and the way I eliminated the Blood Demon incident was to use the inversion instrument The dream space was messed up in this way, so that they could easily distinguish whether the scene in front of them was a dream or reality.

So the Blood Demon incident was solved by me, but later the Blood Demon House extended new rules, which you know better than me. "

"Then what do you want to say? The Blood Demon incident is now completely over, and what you said cannot prove your true identity."

"You are right, but that house is the key link of the whole thing. Before that, I was thinking about how to escape from Shangguan Yan.

And the Blood Demon House created that opportunity for me.

I entered the Blood Demon House simply as a task arrangement, but my disappearance was planned by myself.

Because that house happened to have a mechanism that allowed me to escape from Shangguan Yan's control, I took advantage of that mechanism. "
