Chapter 11

I answered it with anticipation, and what I heard was Akisaka's first sentence: Is the battery of my phone enough?

Well, that's OK.

I looked and for this operation, I followed Akira's instructions to fully charge my phone.

Although I am in a strange place now, I am indeed abiding by scientific laws. Apart from the inexplicable and infinitely extended road, there is no other special place.

Then, don’t hang up your phone and keep the call open.I've reached your location.Akisaka's tone was a bit solemn.

Oh, by the way, when I contacted Akasaka, I had already shared the instant positioning with Akasaka through the software.But she didn't share it with me, she just asked me to follow her judgment.

What's going on over there?I thought about it and asked.

Um.

Akisaka's tone hesitated for a moment, and said: To be honest, there is a wall in front of me.That is the block you know.As for your location, it is displayed very close to me on the software.But no matter how you go, you can't rely on it together.But you don't have to worry, I'll find a way.

Then the voice paused, it should be Akisaka who was looking for a way to break the deadlock.

To be honest, this situation is strange.

I am in a completely claustrophobic environment and my eyes can't see anything.

What you step on is a seemingly familiar road.

But what you hear in your ears is gradually fading away from daily life.

People have five senses.Vision is lost at this time.

Because there is no sound around me, I am now in a state of nothing.

I tried my best to smell it, and I could only smell the normal smell of grass in my nose, in other words, it was the same as the smell of walking in the green belt.

And for taste, I can't ask me to apply a layer of dust on the ground to taste it.

As for the touch, the only feeling under the feet that is most directly in contact with the surroundings is not special.

Logically speaking, in normal times, even if I am a man, I will panic when I am alone and thrown into a black hole.

But now, my heart is unexpectedly calm.Even more calm than the tension of preparing to take action.

Because I know that I was not alone. If I were alone in the majestic wasteland, no one could see or speak, then I would have been at a loss.

But Akisaka was still outside, she knew me and thought about me.

Thanks to modern technology, the mobile phone in my hand, like an invisible rope, connects us two people in different positions.

The two parts of the body are separated, but the heart is held together with the reins known as trust.

This is much better than the ancients who could only look at the stars after getting lost.

Speaking of the stars, I hurriedly looked up, and there was still darkness above my head. I don’t know if it was after entering Shenyin, whether it was simulated by a big tree in the green belt, or if it really entered other spaces. Maybe it was really bad luck. There was a dark cloud above my head.

In short, let alone the stars above your head, you can't even see a shadow on the moon.

Akisaka, can I turn on the flashlight?After thinking about it, I asked.

Well... Akira's voice was long, as if it was humming out of his nose, so I guess, this um was just an expression that she heard me, but was still in a state of thinking.

Now, Akisaka's silent thoughts seemed to have been a long time for every question I had. After a long time, she replied in a bright voice: It is better to follow the previous plan, but it doesn't matter if he makes some adjustments. If Kawa is afraid, then turn on the flashlight.

If someone else said this, I would definitely think that this was a malicious aggression, but if it was Akisaka, it should be the literal meaning in the sentence. I knew she couldn't see it, but I waved my hand, Oh, then forget it, I'll bear it.

Well, that's fine!

Since Akisaka is still working hard outside, the most important thing for me at the moment is to make an agreement with Akisaka to play the protagonist in the story until she meets me.

The curious students talked about the anecdotes of strange stories with curiosity.The strange story that is trapped in the story cage from the falsehood is also chasing the living people who are thinking about the story.

Still in all the weird stories, the struggle of the characters who are trapped in an inexplicable situation is the necessary condition for building weird stories in the story.

Of course, this fear and struggle are also the cause and effect between the real living person and the real false stories.

If everything is in broad daylight, no evil charm can be hidden.There is no room for strange talk.

But why did I come here for?

If it is for safety, then it shouldn't be coming from the beginning.Since you are already here, there is no need to look at each other. It is the right thing to do to cooperate with Xiyue and crack this story.

In my memory, in the initial version, the missing boy came across a person who had never described his face in the story, and was guided by the other party when he was almost exhausted.

The recent version seems to have become a familiar place after finding it in a daze, running around in panic for a long time, and when my heart is about to collapse, I find that there is a familiar place ahead.

No matter which version it is, this weird thing seems to be very safe.

It’s like…when you run out of physical strength and have extremely negative mentality, you will definitely be able to open the channel for return.

So, after Akisaka discussed with me at that time, he chose this as the object of the initial strategy.

Moreover, I wasn't completely alone.Akisaka's protection is still on my arm.

In the afternoon, Akira borrowed needles and thread from the activity room, and then picked the middle fingers of both hands. At first glance, the blood beads of rice size appeared as round and bright as blood pearls. He placed the blood beads on my arm, then bent down his head, as if he was gently kissing my arm, and licked and kissed the location of the blood beads on my arm with his soft little tongue.

It made the place where it touched and felt a warm and comfortable feeling. When Akira raised his head, I saw three small red moles suddenly appeared on his arm, appearing in a triangle shape.

Then, Akira explained to me with a smile that she used the family's secret technique to get out the blood dripping of the fingertips and tongue tips, and then condensed on my arm.

In this way, it means that my blood and energy are also connected to her body. Although I can't do anything too big, some necessary protection is still fine.

This is also the best way she can use when she is deeply trapped in the barrier of common sense modification.

Xiyue's blood was also kept on my arms, quietly like a real mole.

There was no heating or pain, and there was no feeling of existence at all. In Xiyue's explanation, her blood of the demon repelling demons was not awakened. In other words, this direction is very safe.

Then it is to keep walking, constantly trying to find whether this road that seems to be endlessly extended, whether it has a so-called end.

During this period, I also turned the direction several times according to Xiyue's instructions, but whether it was to the left or right, the bottom of my feet was stepping on the hard stone surface.

I couldn't help but start to get irritated, and the grid symbolizing the battery on my phone was constantly shrinking.

At the same time, although there is no clear blood bar information to prompt it, I also know that my physical strength is decreasing rapidly.

The muscles of the legs became tired, the pace of taking steps began to slow, and each step began to accumulate fatigue at a perceived speed.It's so bad.

There was nothing unusual along the way.

There is no monster in horror movies that always hides behind you and is ready to choose someone at any time, nor is there no ghost of black hair and white clothes swaying in front of you.

In short, there was nothing along the way.

The road seems to spread infinitely from under your feet, and it will never end.

It was like falling into the legendary Infinite Purgatory, where there was only a piece of nothingness.

Even for the invisible and intangible ghosts, there is a prison of inescapable and inextricable. Empty will swallow everything until you can no longer find yourself.

It is said that this is even more terrifying than ordinary hell of stolen and swords.

I feel that I will become a part of this strange story.

The legs and feet began to hurt, and the soles of the feet were rubbing against the shoes, as if there were already worn scars, and the inside was hurt.

However, I don’t know if it’s the influence of the strange story, but I can’t stop.

Sorry.I made a mistake in my judgment, and the other party's body was never found.The call with Akisaka has been kept on hold, which is her apology again.

Just a little soon.I replied a little annoyed.How many times has this been a chat?

From the first attack, it became a character in the strange story, just like in the plan.

This development as planned really inspired me a lot and a sense of excitement in participating in the mysterious story.

However, when the plan reached the second step, Akira reported that the existence of the strange story could not be resolved no matter what.

As a false stranger, after establishing a connection with us, it is still an illusory existence.

It is impossible to explore and cannot explore. In this way, we can only continue to do it according to the internal logic of the story plot.

Then, when I started to feel tired while walking, I unfortunately discovered that strangeness had deviations.

I can't stop taking the steps!

It can change the pace, change the direction of walking, and slow down the speed of walking...

These are all possible, but the only point is that you must always keep walking.

Whenever I want to stop, there is always an inexplicable strong impulse that drives me to take steps uncontrollably.

This situation has been going on for a long time.

After looking at the time, several hours have passed.

This is an explanation that does not exist in the strange story. If Akira told me that I would walk continuously from school until the early morning, I would have thought about it more at the beginning.

I began to regret it a little. Every step I took now seemed to have worn the soles of my feet and then swelled up with blisters.

Moreover, the blisters seemed to be being crushed by another stage. The legs seemed to be filled with lead sand and were so numb. It seemed to be gradually replaced by something, and it was about to become something that was not my own.

But now, I can’t stop even if I want to stop.He obviously wanted to sit on the ground and rest regardless of the instrument, but his legs could walk towards the endless front.

Perhaps it is because the impetuousness of the body has begun to affect the brain, and the brain has also begun to become anxious.

I regret it a little. If... if I hadn't agreed to Akisaka, I should have been sleeping in the cool bed at home now.

But... I can only keep walking, not knowing when or where I will go.

How long will it take? Ah... I said weakly to my phone again.

This kind of behavior is probably very rude and causes trouble.

Of course, I am not referring to a very ordinary communication method like mobile phone calls, but... I can't help crying at Xiyue almost every three minutes.

The rationality in my heart told me that I should give Akira some time.Have confidence in her, trust your friends, and don’t disturb her analysis.

However, my feet that kept walking and painful made me feel that I was already an overheated machine, without adding lubricant and oil, and that the supper I had in the afternoon was almost exhausted.

The whole person is on the verge of failure and lacks rationality.

At this time, only Xiyue's voice, who was still caring about me on the other end of the phone, could comfort me a little bit.

So... although it is embarrassing to admit it, it is embarrassing.But I seemed to be mentally addicted to Xiyue, who was younger than me in terms of age, and tried hard to harass her every few minutes.

Just like in a famous drug addiction scientific experiment, a teenage mouse who was addicted to drugs tried hard to press the button representing the exit of methamphetamine, waiting for the impact that could infinitely stimulate the head.

Well...I'm sorry.

Xiyue's voice was still a calm apology. It might sound like people feel that they were ruthless and cold at first, but after being in contact with Akira for a longer time, I could vaguely feel that it was a kind of stubbornness to suppress my emotions, and I could probably guess the reason.

After all, if she, as a demon-breaker, is in a stage of emotional collapse, then what should those protected do?

Sorry, He.

Xiyue apologized to me again, and it was really hard for you to stay in the story of "Strange Talk" alone as bait.As the decider of the plan, I was unable to predict the mutation of the strange talk, which was also my responsibility.I will take responsibility.You wait for me!

Alas!

This time it was my turn to be stunned.

This tone is still as plain as ever, just like Akisaka's calm expression that he often deliberately maintains, but the content inside sounds full of determination.

Although I was urging Akisaka over and over again, my intention was not to make her do anything reckless because of me.

Hey hey hey... I spoke loudly at the microphone, but there was no sound on the other end. I don’t know if Akisaka refused to reply, or if he simply fell into a state of inability to respond.

Um!

I wanted to stop, but I still couldn't do it.

So I had to turn around. I had no idea where I was, and walked back in the opposite direction I thought I was. Maybe I just thought that doing this would make it closer to Akisaka.

Classmate He, I'm here!Not far away, the girl's crisp and nice voice came from the side.

I was stunned. In this gloomy and nothingness, she seemed to be the only redemption and the only hope.

I hesitated for a moment, and the next moment, I firmly picked up my phone, and light burst out from the flashlight, shooting in the direction where I was talking.

At that moment, I held my breath, and I was nervous and didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow.

The capture plan that was previously formulated has completely deviated from the trajectory.

It seems that everything is going messy. Even if it is a illusion made up of a strange story, turning on the flashlight can only see the grimace that can scare people. I also want to see it clearly with my eyes.

Fortunately, Akasaka is in the light.

Akisaka changed into the beautiful white but not so convenient for movement, and put on a casual sports suit that was convenient for movement.

He wore long sleeves and long trousers, a schoolbag, and his shoulder-length hair tied into a capable single ponytail.After the light shone, Akira narrowed his eyes, as if he was also confirming my authenticity.

Then, she raised the cell phone in her hand, leaned the microphone to her mouth, and said something to it.

The sound is not loud, just so it is hard to hear directly at this distance.So I instinctively leaned my phone towards my ear, making you wait for a long time, I'm here!

The gentle sound seemed to have a feeling that you could absolutely rely on.

For a moment, I actually felt very moved.

Then when she ran to me, I suddenly felt a little uneasy again and asked quickly: Didn’t you agree to support me as an observer? Now you are in, then...

Well, it doesn't matter.Akisaka pointed his white finger at himself and then turned to me.

Ideally, a person would have penetrated into the weird interior and acted as a character inside.Then another person observes the story of the story of the inside and outside.However, since I can never analyze it, it will be difficult for the plan itself to carry out from the beginning.Therefore, there is only another solution.

What is it?I asked hopefully.

Well, that's why I'll come in with you too.Then, being attacked by weirdness, so that even if an incomprehensible illusory matter is endured with physical and mental health when attacked, then weirdness will be truly fixed to me.

What... I took a step back.

Yes, that's all.Akisaka then nodded, and Pure Che's eyes showed a determination to make up and not have to stop it.

This is not the result I want.

Watching the girl beside me being attacked, then using her flesh and blood and innocent life as the price to defeat the weirdness, I was rescued in this way...

This is……

She intends to be my victim.

No...don't do this... I felt the mouth was so dry when I opened it.

Bitter tone, dull tone.

I tried my best to keep my emotions. Didn’t I agree that this weird talk is safer? If exhaustion is used as a condition for disengagement, I can be liberated from it in just a few days at most.

What greeted me was Akisaka's decisive rejection, no.

At this time, the two of us were walking side by side on the trail, chatting with each other.

If you don't look at what you say, it's like a sneaky student couple having a secret meeting.

However, Akisaka's words made me sadder.

I... haven't had much time.Akisaka spoke in a tone of regret and sadness.

The power of the barrier that is modified by common sense is strengthening every day.Although I have no idea how much common sense I have been distorted.But even I can feel that I am slowly being changed.This situation cannot be allowed to continue.There is not much time left for us for safety, at most two weeks. No, we don’t have two weeks at all. Maybe we can still grasp the time we wake up, only a few days. In this case, there is no time to waste.

I was silent. For us, a few days is indeed not something that can be squandered at will. How is the deadline determined?

Akisaka said, his tone full of heavy weight: I guessed, but it was not a guess for no reason.The basis is very simple, the node is the Academy Festival.

I suddenly remembered that in two weeks, it would be the annual school festival.

It's similar to the animation, when the school will have a few short days to open.

Students will participate in various activities, such as opening a dessert shop, selling used books and miscellaneous items at home, and in short, some relaxing activities that can communicate with each other.

Akisaka bit his lips. The reason why the barrier is a barrier is its closed characteristic.People who usually go to and from school are fixed.And they go to school regularly, and most of them go home regularly.Regular work and rest, fixed personnel, and closed campuses all make the barrier's subtle guidance common sense possible.Even if someone comes occasionally, the extra power is enough to suppress the thinking of a few outsiders.However, on the day of the school festival, a large number of outsiders from the town will come to visit, and the number of visitors will exceed the number of students.This is unimaginable to the burden of a barrier.Since that's the case, there are reasonable reasons to think that at that time, the other party could either give up on this barrier.Or, you will have enough confidence to brainwash all new townspeople.

Akisaka's reasoning made me shudder, but after thinking about it for a moment, I had to admit that it made a lot of sense.

There is really not much time!

But even so, it is still too dangerous.

This will not benefit or benefit Akasaka, and it will only make her situation develop in a worse direction.Even though I know that something must be done,...

I still tried to persuade: Maybe there are other good solutions.

Obviously, I had no expertise and my dry words could not shake Akasaka's determination.

She smiled and shook her head, her eyes full of openness after making up her mind.

The girl held her hands behind her back, as if she was just taking a light walk, and told me: Do you know, classmate He.In my family, in ancient times, it was a large Onmyoji family.This area was originally the place where my family was responsible for taking care of.Even now, as a branch of the family, I still have the duty to guard the land veins.So Ah, this is not a matter of nothing to do with me.But you, for my part, have been here with me, and I am very happy!

He looked at Akisaka suddenly smiled.The smile that bloomed on her face was beautiful and cute.

But, too stupid.

It's really too stupid.

I continued to persuade me dryly, but if even you failed... then...

Akisaka suddenly pulled my hand and interrupted me. The girl's tenderness in my palm was soft and warm. I was very happy. I was obviously in such a dangerous situation, but I still had to stop me. This idea moved me very much.

Then she broke free from my palm and gently patted my little hand on the back of my hand, but there was no need to say anything more, and there was no need to persuade me anymore. I had already thought about it.Now, it's time for me to play solo.Come here, but don't stop me anymore!

Akisaka ran forward a few steps, then began to speak in a solemn tone.

It’s not that I don’t want to persuade or refute anymore, but Xiyue’s eyes were so firm that she seemed to be shocked by this generous beauty. I silently followed Akasaka’s pace, listening to her speaking like a dramatic monologue.

The content is the historical origin of this Strange Talk Story and the changes in all versions.

In the girl's voice like a narration, we are walking inside the body of this story.

Just as Akizaka opened his mouth, I felt... it was windy.

It is not real, it can bring a cool breeze that is refreshing and comfortable.

And more like in my feeling, something is moving.

But there is something lurking in the dark, which is captured by my senses, but cannot be understood.

It can only be described in the form of wind as close.

Something was with me, listening quietly to Akasaka's solo, wandering in the deep darkness, and ready to move.

The wind is blowing...

The above is the full version of the so-called "strange lost/stairs/repository". Next, the ending is. From now on, I will imitate the student president and rewrite this strange story. Let another story be passed on in a more interesting form that conforms to modern people's thinking.

Akira raised his finger and said to me.

Or, just put your face on me.Her expression was full of solemnity, and her half-closed eyes should be trying hard to capture the strange direction.

The strange existence, the birth of strangeness, from the beginning, nothingness, clumsiness, lack of characteristics, has a body in the polishing of the circulating one by one.

It has life in circulation and discussion.Talk about and spread strange talk has also become a process of adding fuel to weird things.

But, since it is a story.Since it is just circulated by words, there is naturally no so-called original copyright.

That is, it can be modified!

Akisaka spoke out her ambitions openly to the only listener.

No, there should be one listener besides me.

Although I don’t know whether the quantifiers of the position are accurate for non-human things.But judging from Akisaka's sure-fire expression, she was very sure that the other party was listening.

When we talk about this weird thing, it may have lurked beside us.

If it is a living person, if you hear his fate manipulation in his hands, you will be frightened, worried, and even more angry!

After figuring this out, Akisaka opened the corners of his lips in my increasingly panic expression.

The pink cherry lips twitched and closed, but no sound was made.Because it's very simple, I can read her lips, it's coming!

My heart trembled for no reason.

The wind is blowing!
