August 28, two o'clock in the morning, Wu Tiao Building.
Without hesitation, Shi walked through the entrance that required swiping a card, entered the elevator, and pressed the button to go to the top floor. []
The door opened silently.
Open the door leading to the roof.
With his back to the moon, which has given birth to magic, women, and death since the age of the gods, there is a figure floating.
Around it, there are eight girls flying.
The white figure that emerges in the night sky is a woman. She wears gorgeous white clothes like a dress, black hair that reaches her waist, and her slender hands and feet exposed from the outfit, which further shows the elegance of this woman and her thin eyebrows. With cold eyes, she can probably be classified as beautiful among beauties, and her age is estimated to be in her twenties. Having said that, it is still questionable whether the age of life can be used to evaluate the ghost itself. The woman in white is not as uncertain as the ghost. It¡¯s extremely realistic to be here. When it comes to ghosts, I think it should be said that they are the girls whirling in the night sky with her as the center. The girls who are light and helpless in the sky seem to be swimming rather than flying. Her figure is unclear, and sometimes she even becomes transparent. Now, above Shiki's head is the woman in white, and the girls swimming in the night sky as if to protect her.
"Hmphit's true that this guy has demonic nature." Shi Shi said to himself mockingly, "Then it's impossible not to kill him."
"You, go fly." The woman hinted, but it only caused a slight dazzling effect on her.
"You are flying." The woman gave a more powerful hint.
"However, Shiki has clearly seen the line manifested by death.
"A joke." Shi raised his left hand without any pretense, "That kind of longing does not exist in my heart. Since I have no real sense of being alive, I don't know the pain of existence. Ah, in fact, even your things It doesn¡¯t matter. But if you take that guy away, I will be in trouble. Speaking of which, it was originally on my side, so you¡¯d better come back.¡±
¡°Go down!!¡±
"It's you who want to fall." The short knife pierced the woman's chest, and the woman's body fell silently.
He left without saying a word.
After Shi left, another girl came here. Next to her, a black hole opened silently, and the spirits of eight girls were sucked in.
In the morning, Aozaki Orange¡¯s Ningyo Museum.
Chengzi: "Yesterday was the first day of the Astronomy Network. It's about time that society noticed the correlation."
Qianye: "Eight people? Hey, isn't it six people?"
Chengzi: "It increased while you were in a daze. Since June, there have been an average of three people per month. There will probably be one more person added in the next three days."
Mikiya: "But according to outside reports, there is no connection. The girls who committed suicide were not in the same school, and they had no social contact. But maybe the police concealed the information."
Chengzi: "It's just saying some unfounded things. It's not Kurogiri's style to doubt people randomly."
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Because,?Because of?Yipiao Astronomy. Even if there are so many people, it would be great to publish something like the last words of one of them, but there has never been anything similar published. Isn¡¯t this concealment?¡±
Orange: "So, this point is related. No, it is more correct to say that they have something in common. Among the eight people, most of the deceased have multiple witnesses proving that they jumped off on their own, and there are no details about their private lives. Find out the problem. I am neither taking drugs nor participating in any bigoted religion. There seems to be no suspicion that the sudden suicide is due to extreme personal nature and uneasiness about my own existence. Therefore, I have no words to leave behind. . The police won¡¯t pay attention to this commonality.¡±
Qian Ye: "In other words, it's not that the suicide note was not made public, but that there was no preparation from the beginning?"
Style: "Qian Ye, the person who jumped off the building will be over after the eighth one. He won't appear again for a while."
Qianye: "It's over? Do you know what's going on?"
Shi: "Because I saw it. There were only eight people flying in the air."
Mikiya: "Oh, are there only so many people in that building? Shiki knew the number of people from the beginning."
Shiki: "Yeah. Although I've taken care of that guy, I think those girls will still be around for a while. It's unpleasantI mean orange. If humans fly carelessly, this is what will happen to them in the end. ?"
Orange: "What will happen? Because there are personal differences, I can't say clearly, but in the past, there has been no attempt to successfully fly by human power alone.try. (Magic, sorcery, and technology are not powers that belong to humans per se.) The word flight is linked to the word fall. But those who are fascinated by the sky will lack this fact. As a result, there is a situation where even after death, the target is above the clouds. Instead of falling to the ground, it fell into the air. "
Qianye: "Well, I'm sorry. I can't keep up."
Cheng Zi: "Huh? That's nothing. It's just the ghost on the Wu Tiao Building I mentioned before. Is that guy physical or just a consciousness? It's not clear without actually seeing it. I originally planned to do it when I have free time. I went to take a look, but since Shiki had been killed, there was no way to confirm it. You have already heard about the incident where Shiki saw the girl floating above the Wutiao Building. In fact, there is more to this incident. There seemed to be humanoid things flying around the girl. What we just discussed was the possibility that there was something similar to a net there, judging from the fact that they failed to leave the Utiao Building. Utiao Building There is a person floating in the air on the top of the building, and around him are the figures of girls who have committed suicide. These girls are probably ghosts. That's all it takes to describe the incident, it's simple."
Qianye: "What? It sounds like a third-rate novel."
Chengzi: "Maybe."
Mikiya: "Huh? However, Shiki first saw the ghost in early July. Then there were four people in Wutiao Building at that time."
Type: "Eight people. From the beginning, the people flying in the air are Piao Tianwen. There will not be more than eight people jumping off the building. Because the situation of those guys is exactly the opposite order."
Mikiya: "Does that mean I saw eight ghosts from the beginning? Isn't this the same as that kid who heard about the future vision?"
Style: "How is that possible? I'm normal. It's just that the air there is very strange. By the way, it's like the incongruity you feel when hot water and cold water are mixed together. So"
Orange: "So, the time there is distorted. There is not only one way for events to pass. The distance to decay is completely unequal. Assume that an individual called a human being and the memory he possesses , it is not unreasonable that there is a time difference in the process of decay. When a person dies, will his record disappear? It will not disappear, right? As long as there are observers, there is no reason for all objects to suddenly disappear. They will only move towards The nothingness gradually fades away. Human memory, no, should be said to be a record. The observer is not other people but the surrounding environment. In this case, a special race like them will remain as an illusion on the street even after death. This is one of the phenomena called ghosts. Those who can see this vision are people who share a part of this recordthat is, friends or blood relatives of the deceased. Shiki is an exception. In short , although there is a saying that "only recorded time passes", what happened on the roof of that building was slowed down. The records of their lifetimes have not caught up with their original time. As a result, there are only memories. Still alive. What was reflected as an illusion in that place was probably the actions and facts of the girls being played back extremely slowly.¡±
Style: "That's it for the theoretical explanation. Such a phenomenon itself is harmless. The problem lies with that guy. Although it seemed to be solved at the time, it is still possible that similar things will be repeated if the main body still exists. I can I don¡¯t want to be Miya¡¯s amulet anymore.¡±
Orange: "I feel the same. Leave the aftermath of Ujo Kirie to me. Just help me deliver Kurogiri. There are still five hours before Kurogiri's get off work. If you want to sleep, you might as well use the floor over there. .¡±
Mikiya: "By the way, who is that guy?"
Chengzi: "In the past, she also belonged to the flying category Kurogiri. What can you associate with the scenery seen from a high place?"
Qianye: "that, is very small, isn't it?"
Chengzi: "That's because you've gone too far, Kurogane."
Mikiya: "That's right. There's almost nothing that reminds me of it, but I think it must be very beautiful. I was overwhelmed by the scenery seen from a high place."
Orange: "The view from a high place is spectacular. Even if there is nothing extraordinary, it will feel very grand. However, when you see the world you live in at a glance, this is not the impulse you feel. From a bird's eye view There is only one impulse that comes from my horizonthat is, remoteness.
Human beings can only feel at ease with the things that surround them. No matter how elaborate a map is to illustrate the fact that it exists here, it is nothing more than knowledge. For us, the so-called world is just a range that can be felt with the body. If we don't go in personIf you stand at the junction of the earth, country, or city that your brain recognizes, you will not have a real sense of that junction. And in fact, this way of understanding is not wrong. However, once faced with a too broad horizon, this understanding will be different. The space of ten meters in radius that my body can feel is the same as the space of ten kilometers in radius that I can look down on. Which one is the world you live in? The former is the one that gives people a more realistic feeling. See, there is already a contradiction here. Compared with the narrow world that one can experience, the vast world that one sees should be able to give people a better understanding of the world they live in. However, in fact, there is no real sense that I am in this vast world. why. That's because real sense is always generated by prioritizing information obtained from one's surroundings. Here, reason as knowledge and reality as experience rub against each other, quickly causing wear and tear, and consciousness begins to become confused Why is the street seen from here so small. It's hard to imagine my home being in that place. Is that park shaped like this? I didn't know there was such a place there before. This is a completely unfamiliar town. I don¡¯t know why, but I always feel like I¡¯ve come here from a far away place A high viewpoint can make people feel this real feeling. No matter how far away it is, there is no doubt that even now he himself is standing in this town. "
Qian Ye: "Does that mean it's bad to keep looking down from a high place?"
Orange: "If it's too much. The sky has been known as a different world since ancient times. Flying itself is a journey to a different world. If you are not armed with civilization, you will be infected by abnormal consciousness. In other words, Normal consciousness will go crazy. If there is normal consciousness to protect it, it may not be adversely affected. For example, if there is a solid footing, there will be no problem. Once you return to the ground, you will return to normal."
Qianye: "Although this is temporary, it can be regarded as a state of madness, right?"
Orange: "Everyone will fantasize about taboo things, Kurogiri. Because people have this amazing masturbation ability to enjoy imagining things they can't do. But, by the way what I'm talking about now It's a bit close. The important thing is that the temptation related to that place only appears in that place. But this is natural. The example you just mentioned is not that the consciousness is crazy, it is just rational paralysis."
Type: "Chengzi, it's too long."
Chengzi: "It's not long. In terms of inheritance and transfer, it's just the second part."
Shiki: "I just want to hear the Yumi part. I don't intend to listen to you and Mikiya chatting. If it's like you said, there's something wrong with the scenery seen from a high place, so what about the ordinary viewpoint. Even when walking around, Our viewpoint is always higher than the ground."
Orange: "But the ground that you think is level also has an uncertain angle. But forget it, even if this is included, the normal field of view would not be called a bird's-eye view. The so-called field of view does not refer to the image captured by the eyeballs , but refers to the image understood by the brain. Since our vision is protected by our common sense, it has become common sense that we do not feel high about our own height.
There is no concept of height in it. But on the other hand, human beings, no matter what kind of people they are, live in the overlooking horizon. Not a physical observation, but a mental observation. Their personal differences come in all shapes and sizes. The more the spirit expands, the higher it points. However, even so, it is impossible to escape from the box that one is in. Humans are creatures that live in boxes, and they are creatures that can only live in boxes. It is impossible to have a god's perspective. Once this limit is crossed, people become monsters. Hypnosis (hypnos) becomes thanatos (thanatos). It is very unclear which one becomes the other, and it is impossible to determine the result. The shaking of Wu Tiao Building may be the world she sees. The inconsistent feeling of air felt by Shiki can be speculated to be the wall that distinguishes the inside and outside of the box. That is a discontinuity that can only be observed by human consciousness. "
Type: "It's a discontinuous surface. Which side is the warm current and which is the cold current, for you."
Chengzi: "Needless to say, for you it's the opposite."
