Chapter 101 Chapter 101
In fact, Xia Meng had already given up on letting him use the Sky Split.
Because she realized that Emil had actually known all along that Lance was "dead".
It's just that he doesn't want to face it.
Her guidance just now may have been a blessing in disguise, helping him to untie the knot that had shackled him for many years.
Now that the knot in his heart is gone, it is naturally impossible to use Lance to threaten him to do anything.
Xia Meng has a very strange temper.
I can be very cruel to people I hate.
Threats are nothing, they can do even more extreme things.
She had originally lumped Emil in with Hermann.
On the one hand, it was because he was Herman's follower, and on the other hand, it was because of Billy.
But just now in his mental picture, she felt that her opinion of Emil had changed a lot.
She could feel his helplessness and the strong regret and self-blame in his heart.
It can't be said to be forgiveness, but at least it has diluted her resentment towards him a lot.
And Emil did not disappoint her change of opinion of him.
Emil raised his eyes to look at her and Li Zhou, and said softly, "I have a way to use Sky Splitting again."
Xia Meng: "Are you sure? Aren't you afraid..."
She said, her eyes flicking to the still unconscious Lance behind him.
"Aren't you afraid that Hermann will find out? If he knew you helped us, he wouldn't let you go."
Emil lowered his eyes and said, "I know."
Li Zhou said, "I owe you a favor. If you need shelter or help in the future, you can come to me."
Emil shook his head: "No, you don't owe me anything."
If he had to say he owed someone, it should be that he owed Xia Meng.
He once thought that he only needed to keep Lance, the one he cherished most, at the top of his heart and ignore everything else.
Billy...everyone else in the welfare home can be treated as worthless.
He could do whatever Hermann asked him to do.
But the counseling just now liberated Lance and the memories that were trapped in the rooms.
He also liberated himself.
The defenses in your heart are broken, and the shackles are gone.
But the sin will not disappear.
After the spiritual dark spots in his mental picture disappeared, what was exposed was the conscience that he had tried so hard to hide in his youth.
Li Zhou untied him.
Emil rubbed his wrist and stood up, then tilted his head to glance at Lance who was still unconscious.
Then he took a slow, deep breath.
Turning around, he asked, "Where's the other end? Peking Tower?"
Xia Meng and Li Zhou looked at each other.
They had two goals for this trip, and they have basically achieved them.
The first is to rescue Luo Xunfei, and the second is to collect as much information and evidence as possible on Herman.
The former was completed successfully, and the latter was partially completed, but you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
As the saying goes, slow progress leads to a satisfactory solution. Only by dealing with things slowly can we get a satisfactory solution.
Xia Meng thought about it and decided that going to the Beijing Tower was not a good choice.
It's not an airtight iron barrel.
No one can guarantee that Hermann's men have not infiltrated there.
Luo Xunfei's whereabouts must not be known to anyone.
However, they had no better choice than the Beijing Tower.
Considering that Xia Meng still has a "Magic Eye Buff" on her, the Magic Eye may appear around her at any time and anywhere. Except for the heavily guarded and well-defended Black Tower, no other place is suitable.
Xia Meng pondered for a moment and decisively chose the Beijing Tower, but she did not forget to define the scope in detail.
It had to be the floor and room in the Black Tower where they lived.
After listening to this, Emil nodded and said, "I'll try."
There is no doubt about Emil's skills.
In less than a minute, the portal was successfully opened in Xia Meng and Li Zhou's dormitory in the Black Tower.
Xia Meng took a look and after confirming that there was no problem, she signaled Li Zhou to move Luo Xunfei back first.
Li Zhou carried Luo Xunfei on his shoulders and crossed the gap in the sky first.
Xia Meng walked behind, and before crossing the crack, she looked back at Emil.
Emil stood there silently, a dark light flashing in his eyes as he looked at her.
"Xia Meng." He suddenly called her.
Xia Meng: "What?"
Emil was silent for a moment, then said, "From what I know about Hermann, he won't give up on you. From now on... you must be more careful."
Xia Meng knew this very well.
This is also what she found a little unbelievable.
She frowned and asked in confusion, "There are so many guides in this world, why is he so persistent?"
At worst, can't we just change someone?
There is always a better choice!
Besides, does a sentinel have to have a guide?
She saw that Li Zhou had not even received any counseling for so many years before he met her, and he relied entirely on Guidance Su to support himself, but wasn't he living well?
Emil looked up at her with helplessness in his eyes.
"It seems you really don't understand."
Xia Meng was bewildered: "What don't you understand?"
Emil whispered, "Guides are absolutely attractive to Sentinels. Once a Sentinel has been guided by a Guide, it's hard for them to resist this temptation."
It was a feeling of relaxation that purified even the soul.
The more powerful the Sentinel is, the more likely it is that the mental black spots in the body will grow wildly every time it uses its power.
If you don’t have strong willpower to restrain yourself, you will easily sink into darkness if you are not careful.
Even he...
In that brief moment when she turned around just now, he even thought about going with her regardless of the consequences.
"Besides..." Emil hesitated for a moment, then warned, "Hermann...seems to be planning something. You'd better be careful."
Xia Meng blinked.
She kind of believed what he said about the attraction.
How long has it been?
Emil could now sell Hermann without hesitation.
Absolutely amazing.
Xia Meng smiled and said, "I see. Thanks for the reminder. Goodbye."
She waved her hand, turned around, and stepped through the space tunnel opened by the rift in the sky.
I took a step forward and stepped on the soft carpet.
It was their room in the black tower.
Li Zhou had just come out of his room and walked up to her: "Luo Xunfei, please stay in my room first. Do you need a doctor to come and see you?"
Xia Meng rolled up her sleeves and said, "Let me take a look first. Is there a first aid kit here? I'll help him treat the wound first."
A first aid kit is usually standard equipment in any room.
Li Zhou had never used it, but he knew where it was.
He turned around, opened a hidden cabinet on the wall, and took out the first aid kit.
Xia Meng reached out to take it, but he didn't give it to her.
He held the first aid kit steadily in his hand and said, "Let me do it. I can also treat simple wounds."
Xia Meng was a little confused and didn't quite understand why he suddenly became so active.
But since he was happy, she was also relieved.
So she waved to him and walked towards Li Zhou's room first.
"Okay, let me check him out first. If there's nothing wrong, I'll leave it to you."
The two entered the room and Xia Meng walked straight to the bed.
After a set of preliminary examinations, it was basically confirmed that Luo Xunfei did not have any serious injuries. At most, he had some bleeding skin injuries. He was also a little weak and had a slightly high body temperature.
Luo Xunfei was also a guide, so Xia Meng did not rashly use his mental power to explore his mental picture.
But she could feel that although his mental power was weak, the fluctuations of his mental power tended to be stable, so there should be no problem.
She tightened the disposable medical gloves on her hands and turned to Li Zhou, saying, "The other wounds are easy to deal with. They just need disinfection, but the wound on your abdomen is a bit deep and may need a few stitches. I don't think you can handle it, so let me do it."
Li Zhou really can't do delicate work like sewing.
He moved aside somewhat unwillingly.
Xia Meng works very efficiently.
After all, I graduated as a medical student and did a lot of sewing work when I was in school.
She instructed Li Zhou to help her, handing her tools and providing lighting. In no time, Luo Xunfei's wound was almost healed.
Finally, she straightened up and took off her gloves while saying, "I think he might have a fever in the next two days. I'll have to give him two anti-inflammatory pills later."
As she spoke, she rubbed the back of her neck.
Li Zhou glanced at her, and as he pulled her out of the room, he said softly, "Are you tired? Luo Xunfei has nothing to do here. Do you want to go back to your room and rest for a while? Take a shower and have a good sleep."
Xia Meng sighed and raised her hand to rub her brow: "It's not time to rest yet. Director Zhou and my teacher still have a lot of things to do."
Li Zhou held her, stepped forward, raised his hand and touched her pale face, and said with a bit of heartache: "Leave it to me."
He could feel that she was very tired.
I am exhausted both physically and mentally.
From the moment he woke up in the orphanage to the moment she counseled Emil, she must have been holding on the whole time.
Xia Meng's first reaction was that something was wrong.
Some things are better for her to communicate in person.
But there are many things that she is helpless about, and now even she herself doesn't understand what is going on.
For example, the spiritual image of the orphanage’s maze-like corridors.
I have to give her some time to figure out what it is before I can think about what to do next.
Hey, Li Zhou is right.
She needs to rest first.
Xia Meng exhaled and relaxed her shoulders.
Only then did she realize that her shoulders, neck and back were stiff and sore.
It's too tiring.
So she nodded: "Then I'll go take a shower first."
Li Zhou touched her hair, bent down and kissed her forehead, and said softly, "Go. Leave the rest to me."
Xia Meng turned and entered the room.
Hot water has been stored in the bathtub in the bathroom.
She undressed, lay down in the bathtub, and leaned back relaxedly.
The hot water flows over the body, the water temperature is just right.
She closed her eyes comfortably and felt all the pores in her body relax.
The body relaxed, but the mind was still working subconsciously.
She was recalling everything she saw in the orphanage.
All of that was horribly real.
It was as if she had really experienced that kind of childhood.
What's going on?
Generally speaking, mental images are the composition of a person's inner subconscious mind and will have traces of subjective conscious processing.
The information in the brain is huge and complex, and it must be constantly processed in order to be presented in the mental picture.
During the processing, there will be a certain proportion of importance, just like in a dream, the important parts are retained and the unimportant parts are disposed of.
Then the final result is a result that tends to be personal subjective imagination and preference.
It’s like watching a TV series, there are always main characters and supporting characters.
The mental picture always unconsciously projects more "views" onto the protagonist.
But it was strange that Xia Meng did not feel the sense of clear priorities during the more than two months she was there.
She couldn't even tell who the owner of the mental image was.
At first she thought it was herself, the little girl also named Xia Meng.
Then she felt neither like herself nor like Hermann nor anyone else.
In that world, everything is unbelievably real.
All "eyes" fell equally on everyone.
There, everyone has a complete and clear trajectory.
It's like... reality.
Xia Meng suddenly opened her eyes.
A somewhat absurd idea suddenly popped up.
——What if everything she experienced really happened?
She murmured in disbelief: "How is it possible..."
She quickly raised her hand to rub her face and shook her head.
She felt that she was probably too tired.
My imagination went into overdrive and I started to become completely illogical.
