Su Ming'an followed Noel's finger and looked at the fiftieth painting - which was also the last painting.
It depicts a student in uniform, standing in the bright sunshine, looking up at the tall teaching building, which looks like a huge, dark monster in the thick shadow.
The shadows in this painting are so heavy that only the dark silhouettes of the students can be seen.
…
After Su Lixian's death, the Holy Alliance accused her of "crimes against humanity", claiming that it was Su Lixian who destroyed the real special medicine. No one dared to redress her since then.
The 49th Fire Bearer, Dr. Su Jihe, works at the psychological counseling center in Daoya City.
Dr. Su was prepared to be attacked by the Holy Alliance. After all, the first 48 people would be hunted down by the Holy Alliance. But this time, he waited for a long time, and the Holy Alliance did not attack.
According to what Lin Yuzi said before her death, if the Holy Alliance Army did not come to attack, it would mean that Li Mingyue did possess the power to fight against the gods and was protecting the city of Doya.
"In this case... does the fire no longer need to be passed on?"
Dr. Su looked at the blue moon at night.
He felt a vast freedom in his heart, as if forty-eight souls were cheering in his heart - this long-lasting transmission of fire - could finally come to an end.
The fire had reached a safe place, and no Covenant would take it away, and no fiftieth victim would be born.
Under the bright blue moonlight, he pushed up his glasses and let out a long sigh.
The side effects of today's special medicine have been eliminated, and it can be promoted to the public. But he knows that as long as the gods make an oracle, the special medicine will be blocked again. He needs to contact Li Mingyue - contact this person who is said to be able to compete with the gods.
One night, Dr. Su, dressed in a white coat, walked into the church.
The moment he stepped into the church, he almost thought he saw an angel from ancient mythology. The cardinal in white had deep and peaceful eyes, as if reflecting the deep blue full moon.
"Hello Bishop Li, I heard that you are someone who can compete with God. I am Dr. Su from the Psychological Counseling Center, and the 49th Fire Bearer. I need your help." Dr. Su went straight to the point.
"I can't compete with God." Li Mingyue said.
Outside the window, a full blue moon in the sky was gazing at them eternally and compassionately.
"However, I can indeed protect this small town. Congratulations to the forty-nine of you for finally passing the fire to the right place. This is a safe place." Li Mingyue said.
"It is you who are protecting the city of Daoya, so the gods cannot interfere here." Dr. Su said.
Li Mingyue nodded silently.
"How did you protect a city with your human body? And why did you choose Daoya City?" Dr. Su asked in confusion. There are so many important cities in the world, why did Li Mingyue choose to protect an insignificant small city?
Li Mingyue walked down from the platform. Dr. Su saw that the bishop was not covered with a speck of dust, as white as snow.
"Because there is a child in this city who looks most like me." Li Mingyue said.
"Sorry, I don't understand." Dr. Su looked confused. This was his first time meeting the Riddler.
Li Mingyue pointed to the long table next to them and asked them to sit down and chat.
There was a pot of wine on the table. Dr. Su smelled it and found it was peach wine. Li Mingyue poured him a glass.
Li Mingyue's cold and slow voice was like the flowing blue moonlight:
"I wonder if you have ever heard of the concept of 'Original', Dr. Su."
"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. You just need to know that the gods have always wanted to create the "original" by humans."
"Because the gods want to bring a person from another world here. In order for that person to enter this world, this world must have an 'original' that is similar to him."
"But unfortunately, in this huge world, there is no one who is particularly similar to that person from another world. The gods can only find a way to create an original."
"After repeated screening, the gods found that among billions of people, Su Wensheng from Daoya City in Wubang Country was the person most similar to the alien, but Su Wensheng still did not meet the standard of 'original'."
Li Mingyue said this and drank a cup of peach blossom wine.
Dr. Su suddenly understood and said loudly, "I see! So the gods wanted to transform Su Wensheng, making him look like the person from another world, so that the person from another world could come over! But you didn't want that person from another world to come over, so you chose to protect Daoya City and prevent the gods from interfering here, to prevent Su Wensheng from being transformed into the 'original' person from another world."
Their voices echoed in the empty church.
The white porcelain columns reflect the fragmented light of the moon, and the fragmented light and shadow are soft and peaceful.
Li Mingyue looked at Dr. Su with eyes like a clear gauze. Dr. Su was surprised to find that it was very difficult for him to struggle out of this look, as if something unspeakable sucked him in, reminding him of a painting that had been sealed in the Middle Ages, a compassionate archangel carved on stained glass.
"What you said is basically right." Li Mingyue said, "But there is one thing wrong - I want that person from another world to come over, and I also hope that Wen Sheng can become the 'original' of that person from another world."
Dr. Su: "Why do we have to have people from another world come here?"
Li Mingyue: "Save the world."
Dr. Su: "You mean, the gods brought that alien here to save the world?"
Li Mingyue shook her head: "No. The gods are here to destroy the world, I am here to save it."
Dr. Su: "You and the gods both want to lure that alien here. How powerful is he?"
Dr. Su felt that his worldview had been overturned - a person from another world descended on a high school student, could he destroy or save the world? Who exactly was that person from another world, how old was he, how wise was he, and how powerful was he?
