A journey of seven souls escaping from the basement

"Asshole, madman, psycho, whatever, Texas, whatever..."

Looking at Texas, whose voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, Lapland said the possible abuse for the other party without caring. He lowered his head and looked at the pendant protected by the barrier in his hand. Try to gradually increase the force and press down.

But until she exerted her strength to the maximum, nothing happened. The barrier that was created was so strong that it was incredible.

"Hey......"

Although the pendant fell into Lapland's hands at this moment, there was nothing she could do with the pendant's protection.

But......

Lapland slowly moved his eyes to the other hand, and Yabu's soul also fell into his hand at this moment.

"Don't!" The other party's look at Yabu made Texas panic. She suddenly raised her hand to do something, but she immediately stopped and stood there, not daring to move rashly.

"Don't worry... I won't hurt Yabu like before." Lapland looked at Yabu and said in a sincere tone, "Can you lift the barrier, Yabu, of course, don't be nervous, this It’s not a threat, my previous apology is true, and I won’t hurt you like that again.”

"...Why?" Yabu asked with a trembling voice as he tried hard to restrain the feeling that spread from his soul to his body.

"Because I hope you forget everything, Yabu, I hope you lose your memory again."

Regarding this act of playing with other people's memories, there was a hint of request in Lapland's calm voice, as if he was asking Yabu to accept this completely unreasonable request.

"Didn't I... say it from the beginning? After driving a nail into a wooden board, even if the nail is pulled out, there will be traces. Even if we reconcile, that matter will still exist forever. In your memory, that won't work, Yabu... that won't work... A mold board with holes is definitely not as strong as a intact board..."

"Lapland, how could you...!" Texas had spent enough time with Lapland that she immediately understood what Lapland wanted to do.

She wanted to make Yabu lose his memory, she wanted to completely smash the wooden board that was already full of holes, and then mold the debris into a brand new one.

Just erase those mistakes that have become facts, reset everything, let everything start, and get a second chance.

"Why can't I, Texas? Why can't I?" Lapland tilted his head slightly and took his eyes away from Yabu, and turned to look at Texas, "You can use the hanging If the pendant is touched, it will cause Yabu to lose his memory. If I get a chance to contact him, why can't I?"

"you......"

"Ah, yes, no doubt, Texas, I already know, I basically know everything, and I have already guessed what happened."

Chapter 111 You actually want it too, right?

After Lapland was beaten by Texas and huddled in the corner of the rooftop, and was about to continue to stay there in a daze, she received a call, and that call was given to her by the boss who repaired the laptop. Call and tell her to pick up the repaired notes.

Originally, she actually didn't want to go at all, after all, it was already like this.

But in the end, perhaps with the idea that at least the thing should not be left outside, Lapland went to get the note back.

To this day, she is still afraid of this matter. She has thought more than once about what would have happened if she had not taken the notes at that time.

After all, it was this move that made her realize that she actually still had opportunities and ways to redeem herself in this matter.

Lapland looked down at her pocket, which contained a repaired notebook. If she didn't have to pay attention to her surroundings at the moment, she wouldn't mind taking out this thing that gave her a second chance. Check out Texas.

"Through the notepad... forget it, you probably don't know either. In short, I already know that being touched by the pendant will reset Yabu's memory, so it doesn't matter if I can guess what happened. Weird, isn't it? What did you say to Yabu at that time? Ah, it probably said that if this guy Lapland found out that Yabu had forgotten her, he would become like a lunatic, right? ?”

"..."

"I'm actually quite curious. Why did you do this and choose to let Yabu pretend that he didn't have amnesia?" Lapland smoothed his hair with the hand holding the pendant, as if to Acting like a show, he looked confused and asked himself questions.

"For my own good? Or for Zhebu? Ah, no, neither was important to Texas at that time. So, it was probably for your own sake. After all, you hate trouble and don't want to Your own life is disturbed. If Lapland knows that Yabu has forgotten her, and it still happens to you, it will definitely be a headache for you. .”

"I..." Texas opened her mouth awkwardly, wanting to explain and refute, but in the end she said nothing.

After all, Lapland's guess was absolutely correct. For her at that time, it was really because she didn't want to get into trouble that she made the choice to let Yabu pretend that she didn't have amnesia.

Although the rhetoric at the time was indeed extremely reasonable, in the final analysis, it was not that there were no other solutions. It was just that I didn't want to cause trouble and chose the easy path.

If I hadn't chosen the easy way out...

"What on earth do you want to say." Texas clasped her hands tightly, and the disgraceful thoughts in her heart were analyzed but she was unable to refute, which made her dare not even look at Yabu's expression at this moment. , she was afraid that Yaobu, who had always trusted her, would have a disappointed look on his face at this moment.

"I would say you made the right choice, Texas."

"The choice was... the right one?"

"You think I'm going to put the blame on you? You think I'm going to say that it's all because of the choice you made that led to this moment? No, Texas, I don't blame you. You, your choice is correct."

After reading the diary and clarifying everything, Lapland's first thought was, why should he deceive himself? If he had not deceived himself and explained everything clearly, wouldn't everything that followed would not have happened?

...Is it really not going to happen?

No, think about it carefully. Although Texas made such a choice because she was afraid of trouble, was her worry wrong?

Judging from his reaction after losing control of his emotions and what he did to Yabu, isn't it already clear?

Her worries were absolutely correct, she was just unstable.

Ah, so accurate. Even if he just chose the easy path, his judgment was still accurate. Texas' understanding of himself was simply disgustingly accurate.

"What I want to say is, Texas, help me reset Yabu's memory." Lapland seemed very confident that she could convince Texas. She was not impatient or threatening, but discussed He said in a normal way, "How about you listen to my suggestion?"

"what......?"

This completely unexpected invitation made Texas froze, completely immersed in Lapland's words. Although she could not understand it, some kind of dark desire in her heart was telling her to continue. Listen, instead of immediately taking away the pendant that is close at hand.

"You probably don't know, he, Zibu, has saved a lot of people in Texas, you would never guess how many."

Although he had made speculations in Chernobog before, it was from that notepad that Lapland finally got a definite answer.

"You said, if he is handed over to your client, if he leaves us, will he still remember us?"

"No... this is not right at all, right?" Yabu tried hard to squeeze out his thinking ability, trying to understand the situation at the moment despite the discomfort and confusion of his mind, but he said to Lapland, "Even if I really need to leave, and that’s just leaving, not never coming back? How could I forget you just because I’m leaving temporarily..."

"Because of the pendant, Yabu, can you guarantee that your memory will not be erased there?"

If possible, how many people can resist wiping away the little bits of dirt left by others on their things to make them look brand new?

"But why? Didn't Texas say that the client's character is guaranteed? In this case, there is no reason for the other party to erase my memory, right?"

"Reason? Reason, my God, Yabu, you actually asked what the reason is, hahaha..." Lapland was obviously stunned for a moment, but then she smiled as if she understood some joke. Same thing, he laughed to himself, "Texas, did you hear that? Hahaha... He actually asked me what the reason was."

That's right...that's right.

"Zhang Bu, you can't understand, but that's normal."

He always gives kindness unconditionally and feels that that is what he should do. This completely spontaneous behavior is probably like the instinct of eating and drinking to him, so much so that he has never thought that this is what some people do. What a precious thing it is in your eyes.

You were strutting around the market wearing something dazzling, and you were targeted because of it, and you were cornered in a dark alley and stripped clean. What you want to ask at this time is what is the reason for doing this?

This is so funny isn't it.

"Texas, you should understand." Lapland pulled Yabu's soul and moved him slightly away from his sight, so that he could look into Texas's eyes. .

"For the person who gets the pendant, this cute ghost has no power to resist. Just like now, he seems to be able to do anything, but in fact it doesn't make any sense. Whoever has the pendant has it, everything about him Who can control it? If he wants to, his memory can be reset at any time. Any thoughts he has, whether he is happy or sad, or even...hatred, disgust, or wariness, can be reset at any time. Something that’s been erased.”

This is so exaggerated that even if he was so angry that he wanted to cut the person into pieces, just touching the pendant can reset his memory. If done correctly, he can even treat his enemies as friends. He blocked the knife, sacrificed everything for it, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to it.

It's simply crazy. Even those Originium techniques that are specially used to brainwash and destroy the spirit may rarely be able to achieve this level.

"I know it's too much to say this, but for the person who gets the pendant, Yabu has no human rights at all. It is just a toy that can be played with and defiled at will. Even children can easily smear them on him. s color."

If that's the case, then why can't it be me who does this?

"Hey, Texas, don't be patient. You have already learned the taste of the marrow, don't you know? You know how precious this thing is, then you should know that if you send him away and give him up, it will really Is it our turn again? So, let’s regain our identity as partners, how about we work together?”

After knowing the function of the pendant, and recalling a series of events since arriving at the Dragon Gate, Lapland figured out one thing.

She has always thought that as a friend, she should help Yabu find the past.

But if you think about it carefully, does she really want Yabu to gain memories?

Not at all.

Rather, deep down in her heart, what she actually hoped for was that Yabu could continue to be a useless person, unable to touch anything, and his memory would be damaged like this.

She would do something to help Yabu recover his memory just because it would make him feel that he was a friend worth trusting, but in the end, that was not what she wanted at all.

Yes, this is not a friend at all, and she doesn't want to play that kind of friend game.

All she wants is to be like a wolf protecting its food, driving away all those who intrude into her territory and not letting others touch what belongs to her.

“Think about it Texas, think about it.”

Lapland figured it out.

Yabu just wants his past, doesn't he?

But why does this past have to be true?

He just has a memory hole in his body that needs to be filled. What is the filling in it? It has never been said that it must be true, right?

"We already understand why Yabu lost his memory, so why don't we make good use of it. We can personally shape a Yabu that is unique to us, right?"

Lapland opened his arms excitedly, as if to welcome something.

She could see and hear Yabu next to her, but she was gradually unable to keep up with her thoughts.

It's so weird.

What happened to Lapland?

My chest felt so uncomfortable, and my whole body felt so uncomfortable, as if all the cells had been ravaged into a pulpy mess, and I couldn't think calmly at all. Lapland's words that revealed the madness in his heart shocked Yabu's brain. The chaos was overwhelming.

It's not that he doesn't understand what the other person is saying, on the contrary, it's precisely because he understands and fully understands that he feels confused.

Because it's like knowing that a person who has seen the killer's appearance cannot be allowed to live. Since the other party doesn't mind saying these words in front of him for him to hear, it means that no matter what Yabu says, No use anymore.

She will never look back on this matter, and her memory will definitely be "killed".

Yabu, who had become a ghost, didn't need to breathe at all, but the physical discomfort and the feeling of powerlessness spreading from the inside out at this moment made Yabu feel a little tight in his chest, as if he was being tortured and holding his hair. I kept pushing him into the water and pulling him up again, feeling like I was out of breath and suffocating.

"Texas..." Zhebu, who could not think of any other solution, looked at Texas for help.

The experience of getting along made Yabu think in his heart that Texas has always been sensible and trustworthy. He hoped that Texas could say something to persuade Lapland at this moment when he could no longer think of any way. , seeing it as the last straw in the final torture.

Although Lapland has been persuading Texas, Yabu knows that this will not have any effect on Texas, who has always been able to stay calm in dealing with everything.

Yeah, Texas is always cool, she would never...not...

"Texas...?"

The moving field of vision finally took Texas into full view, but what Yabu saw was not the calm face as usual. Instead, it was full of abnormal expressions that Yabu had never seen before.

She opened her mouth slightly, her face full of struggle and confusion, and her forehead secreted some fine sweat that stuck her hair to her skin, as if she was suppressing something in her body. When she heard Yabu calling Dirk After hearing the name Sasi, she couldn't help but tremble all over. She stood there as if it was not her name, not knowing how to respond to Yabu.

"Instead of giving it up and losing everything in the end, why don't we take this opportunity to divide him equally? It's okay, Texas, you don't have to be patient, and you don't have to be afraid that your true inner desires will scare you. Bu, after all..."

Lapland shook the pendant in his hand and said that the dark thoughts that Texas knew in his heart but had never tried to explore were put on the bright side.

"As long as you touch the pendant lightly, he will not remember anything about what is happening now, what we are discussing now, and the choices you made."
