Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1561: Sakura Mizugan’s decision
In the next few days, Qiao Yuansi felt like he was in a trance and having a long dream.
Let’s say it was a dream. She could remember clearly what happened in the past few days. She said it was not a dream, but she felt as if she was “no longer where she was” - her self seemed to have been Most of her body was removed, and the person who owned her body was no longer Qiao Yuanji.
No, no, it's like an outsider has taken over her body; to be more precise, her self began to deform before Qiao Yuansi's face deformed.
The night she realized she couldn't understand her lesson plan, Qiao Yuansi could hardly describe her feelings in words. Neighbors can become monsters, and the world can end, but if she loses her intelligence, she doesn't know who she is and how she can survive. The foundation she had built for thirty-three years suddenly collapsed and shattered. She buried her face in her arms and cried silently for an unknown amount of time before she was finally persuaded by Sakura Mizugan to put down her lecture notes and go to bed. Before falling asleep, there was still a vague hope in my heart that "maybe it will be better after a sleep".
When she got up the next day, she felt no discomfort at all.
Sakura Mizugan seemed to have been awake all night. As soon as he heard Qiao Yuansi's footsteps, he sat up from the sofa and followed her around the room with his eyes.
When she was about to enter the kitchen to prepare breakfast, Sakura Mizugan stopped her, spread her textbooks on the dining table, and asked: "Do you understand?"
Qiao Yuansi stared at the page for a while. "I know every word...it's so hard to understand what they mean when they are put together. What does this mean?"
"Then read slowly and read sentence by sentence."
Qiao Yuansi couldn't help but rolled his eyes and buried his head again. She forced herself to read slowly for several minutes before barely understanding a sentence or two. This progress only made her irritated. She pushed the table and stood up and said, "What's the use of reading this? I'm hungry. I don't want to." Saw it."
Sakura Mizugan said nothing. He sat at the other end of the dining table and watched her enter the kitchen and watch her prepare breakfast for one person; he didn't speak again until she slowly finished eating.
"The red marks on your face have lessened." He said calmly.
"Oh," Qiao Yuansi was reminded that there was still a red mark on his face. He touched it and said, "I don't think it's a big deal. It should be completely gone in two days."
"Do you still think you can't transform?"
"No," Qiao Yuansi waved his hand, feeling that this statement was really ridiculous: "I am a living person, and my face suddenly deformed. Why? Is there any scientific reason to explain it? There is none, so Impossible."
Sakura Mizugan's expression was as if he suddenly heard something unbearably stupid, and his brows furrowed as he stared at her. "...What?"
It's hard to explain why, but Qiao Yuansi suddenly felt as if his feet had been stepped on, all the thorns on his body stood up, and he was ready to defend himself. "What," she stared at him with vigilance and said challengingly: "Those transformations, the end of the world, you are the only one talking about it, right? Did it appear on the morning news? Did it appear in the newspaper? Why didn't I? See?"
Sakura Mizugan wiped his face, as if he couldn't believe the current situation. "Have you forgotten the facts you have seen with your own eyes?"
"There must be an explanation for what I saw," Qiao Yuanji said. "I have been hiking and camping for so long and I am tired from driving. It is possible that I saw it wrong. And to say the least, what if I deformed? I don't Or should I still eat and sleep and live my life as usual? If I become a monster, the school will still pay me my salary. Stop talking about this. It upsets me and I don’t want to hear it."
When she stood up to collect the plates, she thought of another thing and warned him: "Don't talk nonsense when you go out, otherwise I won't care about you if they catch you."
Sakura Mizugan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he immediately raised his eyes, as if he was stung by these words and was momentarily at a loss.
Even though Qiao Yuansi was bothering him now, when he met his eyes, he couldn't help but be startled - the color in his eyes was too clean and clear, as if a small piece of blue sky had been frozen on the snowy field. She suddenly remembered that when she first saw him yesterday, she thought he was like a wild eagle flying across the mountains... How did she come up with this metaphor? Did she think of it?
She dropped the plate on the table with a clang, clutched the back of the chair tightly, and gradually came over with memories of yesterday.
She has not forgotten what happened yesterday; but she really can't remember it just now - yesterday's memory seems to have turned into some old letters that were put away. They are still there, but they are just sitting far away in the drawer. , never crosses my mind easily.
"Don't give me the textbook," Qiao Yuanji said hoarsely, still hanging his head, "That one may be too difficult for me... There are some general reading books, please give me that."
Before she finished the last word, Sakura Shuigan jumped up and went to find a book. He seemed to be afraid that if he moved too slowly, Qiao Yuansi would slip away from this body again, so he quickly placed a stack of books with the word "General Knowledge" in front of her.
Qiao Yuanji's whole body was trembling slightly for no reason, and she flipped through several books in succession. The frustration and frustration that she couldn't read or understand became more and more intense; when tears came up in her eyes, Ying Shui'an But suddenly he breathed a sigh of relief, squatted down in front of her, and whispered: "It's okay if you feel sad, it's okay if you feel sad."
"...What does it mean?"
"Listen to me," Sakura Mizugan's tone was slightly urgent, "Those red marks are making your mind and personality begin to change. I don't know how those red marks take effect, but maybe we You can suppress it in reverse."
"How to suppress it?" Qiao Yuansi didn't realize he was crying until he saw water dripping on his hands.
"...by alleviating the symptoms it causes." Sakura Mizugan said softly like a doctor comforting a child: "If you feel that these are still too difficult, just do some simple thinking training with me. . You said yourself that the virus cannot kill 100% of people, so why can’t you survive it with resistance?"
While doing the thinking training, Qiao Yuansi's face in the mirror was clean again, with no trace of blood left.
It’s strange to say that her intelligence has not deteriorated and she is still very fast at solving math problems, but after a while, she started to answer the elementary school-level thinking questions incorrectly one after another. She soon became unwilling to do it anymore, but Sakura Mizugan wouldn't let her go - even though he was tall and thin, his strength was astonishingly terrifying. He didn't look like a human at all, but more like a construction crane.
After Qiao Yuansi held him down, he was still very patient and asked: "...Which of the examples I gave above is the truth?"
She couldn't answer, so he repeated it again. The two of them went back and forth, like a see-saw, and even Qiao Yuanji herself could feel that her state was also advancing and retreating, good and bad, in this back-and-forth tug of war - but there was a little bit of sakura. Kishi was right: as long as she kept fighting for position through training, her rate of deterioration would be temporarily arrested.
The "transformation" factor is like a living creature. After realizing that this position is not easy to grab, it slowly loosens its grip. For a full afternoon, Qiao Yuansi's condition did not deteriorate again; the two of them waited anxiously until the evening, and finally breathed a sigh of relief - finally getting through the next day.
On the third day, Qiao Yuansi's condition was still similar to yesterday. The two did another half-morning mental training, and everything seemed to be gradually getting better; Sakura Mizugan looked more and more happy, and his eyes were shining. If a bird hadn't hit her window that afternoon, no one would have noticed.
It was an unknown, very beautiful bird, with a fat body of tawny brown and pointed black tail feathers. It was injured somewhere, and it fluttered a few times but still couldn't fly. When Ying Shui'an stood up after hearing the sound, Qiao Yuanji ordered: "Throw it into the big trash can in the community."
Sakura Shuigan turned around and glanced at her. "It's not dead yet."
"That's almost dead," Qiao Yuansi waved his hand, "hurry up and throw it away."
Sakura Mizugan smiled at her almost tenderly.
When Qiao Yuanji lowered her head again, she suddenly felt a hand grabbing her collar, and with a strong lift, she was lifted up by Ying Shuigan. He dragged her to the door, his movements could even be called rough, and said, "Pick it back up."
"Why?" Qiao Yuansi pulled his arm back hard and asked angrily.
"Because you are not that kind of person." Sakura Mizugan said simply.
A big bird, every time it **** its wings, scares Qiao Yuansi, and she is naturally very unhappy - if she hadn't dared to offend Sakura Mizugan~IndoMTL.com~ she wouldn't have wanted to put this Birds are brought into the house. She held the bird and sat down on the sofa. The mirror she had placed there before happened to be on the coffee table in front of her. As soon as she sat down, she saw her face in the mirror swaying. It was as if a wave of waves had hit his face, curling up and down, and passing by in a flash.
She was frozen all over.
Sakura Mizugan stood on the aisle behind her. She probably saw the image in the mirror, but she didn't say anything. For a moment, except for the flapping sound of the bird flapping its wings, there was only dead silence in the living room.
"Why...I haven't gotten worse," Qiao Yuansi said hoarsely, "How..."
The footsteps of Sakura Mizugan approached from behind. When he stood behind the sofa and bent down, Qiao Yuansi felt a warm hand slide into his neck and gently pinched her neck. Her throat was pressing against his knuckles, and it was the first time she felt that her throat was such a fragile thing.
"I'll tell you the truth," Ying Shui'an said slowly and calmly. "I thought about it the day before yesterday. Since this world can still function normally, there is no need for me to kill you even if you are deformed. There may be nothing wrong with letting you live well in this world with other monsters. But now...I have changed my mind."
Qiao Yuansi's teeth were chattering slightly, and he didn't even dare to move the bird in his arms.
Evolvers are far more terrifying than shapeshifters.
"I don't like what you are gradually becoming. If you can't survive it, I might as well kill you now."

I didn’t expect it took so long! It feels like the progress is a little slower than I thought...
