"It's still raining in this world, you have no right to feel sorry for yourself."
Looking at the serious and familiar face in the mirror, Bi Qigu paused every word, opened and closed his lips, his face was serious, and his eyes were sincere.
"I'm Detective Hikigaya."
"I am, Agent Hikigu."
"I am, the agent who will never fail again, Hikigu!"
……
After finishing speaking, Bi Qigu's whole spirit was different. He had a new and higher level of consciousness, and he became a better and stronger version of himself.
He deeply felt the consequences of failure—if it was what he thought, the ghouls wanted to turn all human beings into ghouls, so he was trying to save the failure and prevent the ghouls from taking the next step.
The ghoul has already got two containment items, one is a sword and the other is a seal, so there should be one more... In other words, Bi Qigu still has a chance.
Never fail again!There is no qualification for failure!Can't afford the consequences of failure!From now on, either he succeeds or he dies!
In the past, Biqigu, even in secret, still slack off, just like that Biqigu in daily life, lonely and good at being alone, silent and unwilling to take the lead in everything, reticent and too lazy to make suggestions;
Even if I have the awareness to dedicate myself occasionally, even if I actively participate in the struggle occasionally, I am just being bullied by the weird, and more of them are passively fighting back.
Now, Hikigu knows that it's useless to be passive, and it's useless to be alone... He just wants to protect the people around him, but if he doesn't nip all the dangerous factors in the bud, no one knows what those sneaky things will be. If you don't set your sights on this world, when the time comes, how can there be any eggs under the overturned nest?
That being the case, let's be a new agent, a different Biqigu.
This damned mysterious world is trying to force Hikigu, well, let him struggle hard.
"I, Hikigaya, will definitely become a weird executioner. And, I will never miss!"
Maybe this failure is not a bad thing - if Hikigu succeeds in stopping the ghoul's plot in the end.
This failure raised Bi Qigu's consciousness to a higher level. He only felt that his whole body was transparent, his thinking became more agile and clear, and his whole person seemed to be sublimated.
So many times people's thoughts are really not related to age, but only related to experience-in the mysterious 20 days, Bi Qigu's growth rate and sublimation times are much more than his past 18 years of life.
Hikigu wiped off the water droplets on his body with a towel, and walked out of the bathroom wearing a bath towel.
His body under the towel was a bit scary: a terrible spider web-like crack on his chest, and the rest of his body was densely packed with tiny wound marks—it was the result of the woman's heavy blow that shattered his whole body.
Although I don't know what kind of medicine the old man used, combined with the real product of Biqigu, his serious internal and external injuries were all healed in such a short period of time, but these scars were not affected by the medicine, they stayed .
Standing in front of the bathroom door, outside the window is the hazy rain, behind is the house full of clouds and mist.
His body was covered with serious scars, but the corners of his mouth curled up, and Bi Qigu's smile was as bright as a flower.
Hachiman's first defeat, how do you know it's not a blessing?right?
……
Walking to the bed, Hikigu took off his bathrobe and picked up the clothes beside the bed.
After carefully checking every detail of every piece of clothing, Hikigu put on the clothes, pants, socks and shoes from the inside to the outside.
Half a minute later, Hikigu changed back into the detective outfit as his arm slipped through the cuff of the straight windbreaker.
The windbreaker was washed very clean. Although there were holes in it from last night's battle, it didn't affect Bi Qigu's heroic appearance at this time.
There is still a tube of reagents in the inner pocket of the windbreaker, which has not been opened, and is placed there intact. Bi Qigu took it out, checked it again and put it back carefully.
Picking up the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5990 watch, Bi Qigu checked it carefully, and after confirming that the watch had not been tampered with by the old man, Bi Qigu put it on his left wrist and buckled the strap.
Hikigu put the M1911 out of the magazine again. The enchanted bullets were ejected one by one. The gun body was skillfully disassembled into parts. Hikigu checked them one by one. The gray M1911 was tucked into the holster inside the windbreaker.
The magazines in the magazine pocket in the windbreaker were also taken out by Hikigu to check the bullets one by one to make sure nothing went wrong.
As for the enchanted dagger?That dagger had been lost in last night's battle... To be precise, when he was hit flying by that woman, the dagger in his hand fell out.
Finally, Hikigu patiently tested them all, shook the windbreaker on his body, and then exhaled lightly.
The old man hasn't touched his things...or at least, Hikigu can be sure that these things haven't been tampered with.
On the one hand, Bi Qigu should speculate on the strange and mysterious old man with the greatest malice; on the other hand, Bi Qigu should be cautious and responsible to himself.
——Never fail again, never be negligent again, don't be 100% sure, don't be [-]% sure, he only needs to be foolproof now, as long as he is [-]% sure.
This is not forcing oneself, nor is it showing off one's ability. For Bi Qigu, or for a qualified agent, this is "have to", nothing more.
Turning around, Hikigu took big strides, went to the door and turned the handle, and opened the door with a "click".
The dimly lit corridor in front of the door was very quiet, there was no one there, and the doors on both sides of the corridor were closed tightly.
Noticing the stairs to the left of the door, Hikigu took two steps, closed the door behind him, and went down the stairs.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw the old man at the counter wiping the cups carefully with his head down. The whole hall was decorated with the classic furnishings of the cafe, but the glass doors and windows were closed tightly.
Seeing this, Hikigu, who was walking down the stairs quickly, slowed down on the last few steps, as if he couldn't bear to break the silence.
"Aren't you open for business today?"
The old man raised his head and saw Hikigu, squinted his eyes and smiled, shook his head, then lowered his head to wipe the glass in his hand.
"I wanted to take care of you, but I didn't have time to entertain guests. I didn't expect you to get better so quickly."
"You saved me, not just to save me, did you?"
Hikigu's footsteps left the steps, and walked towards the old man with gentle steps, with a deep and steady voice:
"Let's get straight to the point. Do you want to tell me something? Or, what do you want me to do?"
"Straight to the point..." The old man was still wiping the cup with his head down, which made Hikigaya unable to see his eyes, "But I really have nothing to do, saving people is saving people, and I didn't think about anything else... I Didn’t you say that? I’m just an old man passing by.”
The corner of Bi Qigu's mouth curled up, and he got closer and closer to the old man, "But you also said that I can leave directly after I get dressed."
"Yes, I said so."
"Clap."
Bi Qigu paused.
"Then I'll take my leave."
Turn around, take a step, the pace is very fast, Bi Qigu left the old man's back looking chic and without hesitation.
"Everyone is waiting for me to go back."
The old man lowered his head and wiped the coffee cups. He was not satisfied with polishing them until they were shiny and shiny, so he continued to wipe them.
He didn't look up, and it seemed that he didn't intend to keep him.
"Click, click, click!"
Bi Qigu's footsteps are really non-stop, and they are getting faster and faster... The distance from the counter to the door is not too far, and Bi Qigu has already touched the handle of the door.
"Squeak-"
Opening the glass door, the humidity of the rainy day outside and the smell of wet dust on the street entered Hikigu's nostrils.
"Young man, stay for now!"
"Squeak-"
The two voices proceed almost simultaneously.
Hikigu put down his right hand holding the handle, stamped his feet, turned around, blinked his eyes,
"Coincidentally, I was just about to say that it's very windy and rainy outside, and I want to wait until the rain stops before leaving...here."
The old man who claimed to be Fangcun Gongshan: "..."
"It's a pity that I was the first to say it, so the result is completely different from what you said first...Young hero, well-deserved reputation, you are very good."
Kozen Yoshimura sighed, put down the coffee cup in his hand with a "click", put the towel on the counter, raised his head, and looked at Hikigu.
"We do need to talk."
"I'd be happy to hear it." Hikigu nodded happily, "I knew you would."
Walking to the side, Bi Qigu found a seat and sat down, facing Kozen Fangcun at the counter, and the two looked at each other from a distance.
——It was only then that Hikigu saw Yoshimura Kozen's eyes.
In the past, Hikigu didn't understand eyes, but later he learned criminal psychology by himself, and he has his own way of looking at people's eyes.From the eyes of the old man, he read confusion, pain and helplessness.
While Hikigu frowned, he realized that he might have unexpected big gains.
"So, where do we start?"
Bi Qigu asked.
The old man bowed his head and pondered for a while,
"Then let's start with an unqualified father and an incompetent leader."
With a low voice, he raised his head, and the surroundings of his eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and the color of his pupils changed from the black pupils of normal Asians to a black and red scary color.
——That's a color unique to ghouls.
"!!!"
Hikigu jumped up directly, and the chair rattled and rattled.
"Are you a ghoul?!"
"Yes." The old man had expected this reaction from Hikigu, and nodded slightly with a little pain.
"Don't be afraid, child, the ghouls are not as vicious as you think, and I have no malice towards you."
"This……"
Bi Qigu's mood was a little calmer, and he realized that he had overreacted.
Taking two steps back, Bi Qigu slowly sat down on the chair hesitantly and vigilantly, his eyes flickering, one hand has reached into his arms to touch the handle of M1911, and he is ready to open the "real thing" at any time.
"Sorry... I think you can understand, I have a reflexive aversion and a relatively strong reaction to ghouls now."
"I understand, I understand what they did to you, and I apologize to you on their behalf...Of course, I know it's useless."
As he spoke, the old man bowed 90 degrees to Hikigu.
Bi Qigu took a deep breath. He had just made up his mind to crush the ghouls to ashes. It was indeed a big test for him to have such a close and peaceful contact with a mysterious ghoul whose strength was unpredictable.
If it wasn't for this old man who saved him, Hikigu promises that even if he wasn't an opponent, he would immediately take out the M1911 in his arms and open fire—the innocent and ignorant ghouls were in a hurry as early as the day when the arrest warrant was issued to the whole world I went to the association to surrender and prove their innocence. They are being investigated by various associations. They are definitely not wandering the streets of the city like they are now.
In other words, there is a high probability that this old man is not a participant, but he is definitely not an uninformed person.
"No, you saved me, so you don't have to apologize to me... Please tell me, what's going on with all this?"
Hikigaya asked, realizing that he was getting closer to the truth, the real truth and not the truth he had deduced before.
The so-called turning all human beings into ghouls is just Hikigu's own inference;
To be honest, Hikigu himself felt that although that kind of thing was big, it was not enough for the ghouls to go on and make sacrifices without complaint or regret, like the most fanatical believers.
And now, the truth is at hand.
"Before everything is revealed to you, I want to introduce myself to you again."
"I am a ghoul, a ghoul with a special status among the ghouls."
"Because we only eat human corpses, we also have the title of ghouls in the mysterious world."
The old man straightened up, his black and red terrifying eyes met Hikigu's eyes, so that Hikigu could see the sincerity in his eyes.
——Although my appearance is terrifying, my heart is Akagi, so you can believe what I say.
"However, rather than being a ghoul or a ghoul, I would rather call myself a name that many of you don't know."
Hikigu frowned: "What?"
Yoshimura Kozen whispered a term that Hikigu had never heard before:
"……sinner."
The voice of the old man was mixed with pain and helplessness, and it came faintly, like the sigh of the wind from the boundless wilderness, or like the sad chant of the flowing water that has flowed through thousands of years.
"Sinners who have redeemed their sins for thousands of years, still continue to bear their sins, and will continue to redeem their sins for countless years to come."
……
Chapter 83 The Truth, God, Man, and the Six Realms (Two in One)
"Sin...sinner?" Bi Qigu raised his eyebrows.
This sensitive word immediately reminded him of the densely packed, inexplicably terrifying crucifixes and similar imitation ghoul crucifixes he saw in the ghoul's lair base.
