【Double White Crows】Symbiosis

Chapter 16

Tacitly avoiding the embarrassment of performing a bloody drama in full view, the two slipped out quietly while Tiri regained Alice's power.Before leaving, the strange thief gave the trickster a sharp knife, which means "all irrelevant people go away".The treacherous master raised his chin in the direction of everyone, signaling him to rest assured.

Going around to the outer wall of the castle, using perception to confirm that there are no other ambushes nearby, the strange thief turned to look at the white crow.He bowed his head silently

"what you want to say."

White Crow has a lot to ask.I asked you if you knew I was worried, and asked where you went.Ask if you remember me.

"Why are you here?"

The Phantom Thief didn't seem surprised that he would ask this. "After I returned to the spiritual world, I went to find 'White', the doll you call Tiri. He told me how to end this chaos. But I can't single-handedly defeat 'Black', so I ask He made a suggestion."

"Most of Black's power comes from countless demons, but the mental forms with real brains rarely come into contact with him. Therefore, he does not have many powerful 'dominators' with area control. As long as I go to seek refuge, he will You must be overjoyed to accept me immediately."

"You're crazy!" A crack finally appeared on White Crow's indifferent face, "What if you really become a ruler!"

"Just kill me." The strange thief smiled, "Bai also asked me the same question. I told him about my body and asked him to treat me as a chess piece that can be discarded at any time. The synchronization rate has reached 87 The % of me is not much of a threat to you."

How can I do it.The white crow looked at the strange thief but couldn't say anything.

"What's more. I have the confidence that he can't turn me into a ruler." He paused, "If he can't realize my 'desire', he won't be able to assimilate me. So when he knows my request I was shocked for a long time, and then threw me into the black air to stay with a little girl named Alice. Although I don’t know the specific reason, it is a force that compulsively interferes with the spirit. People will see To see the scene you want most, as long as you don’t wake up, the mist will gradually erode your body and become the dominator unconsciously.”

"I can guess that Alice longs for family and friends in the real world to be controlled by the black. What do you see?"

The Kaitou was stopped by the question, and slowly looked away and turned his head to the side.

White Crow wasn't sure if this reaction would make the old man blush. "Give me an answer."

"I..." I saw a future with you, and when I woke up it was never possible again.

"I saw you." It was White Crow who spoke first.

"What?" The strange thief was so shocked that he directly pushed the white crow against the stone wall of the castle.

"Too, too close... You stand back." He was afraid that the other party could hear the frequency of his heartbeat, "I'm very strange. I didn't see a shelf of games, I didn't see myself becoming a popular person, or even... I didn't see Mom and Dad. I only see you."

You are the deepest desire of my soul, the obsession to win, the never-ending pursuit.

"Me too."

"what?"

"I saw your past, present and future. What the illusion gave me is the world of 'you can see the mind form from childhood'. I accompany you in birth, growth, maturity, and old age. Finally, when you close your eyes Hold your hand from time to time and turn into fly ash. It sounds the same as now, but that world is not my unilaterally waiting, you are also accompanying me."

In that world, we are no longer cold data, and the mental form will also have its own emotions.It's normal to be with your own spiritual form for a lifetime, because you will never have conflicts, and you don't have to worry about the sadness of losing your spouse if you live and die together.

That is a dream, and one cannot live by fantasy.

"Since this is your wish, what is the 'I' like in that world?" White Crow said with some difficulty, why didn't he want such a world, "What is the difference from the current me so that you don't want to wake up? Come?"

The strange thief's hand on his shoulder seemed to use all his strength to hurt his bones, but the white crow didn't hide.

"In that world, you said...you love me."

"Then it makes no difference."

In the next second, the white crow grabbed the strange thief's collar.Lips touched, and the fur of the cloak tickled his cheek.

The phantom thief, who realized what the answer was, uncontrollably pushed the man against the wall.The familiar touch made him unable to withdraw easily.The amorous boy kissed him back tenderly with a technique he had learned from him.Lips and tongues are intertwined, 87%, 88%, 89%... 90%.

Invincible.

When Alice's consciousness inside recovers, the chaos will come to an end.The incapacitated phantom thief will no longer be the choice of the white crow when he liberates his mind. This is their last side.

"...cough cough."

The charming atmosphere was shattered in an instant, and the phantom thief who was pushed away by the young man in panic was so angry that he almost drew his gun and aimed at the head of the trickster in the corner.

"you wanna die?"

"I didn't, I didn't, I didn't see anything..." The little white flag created by the magic box waved in the corner, "That little girl hopes to find a big brother wearing a cape."

"Let's go." The lowered white crow gently pulled down his sleeves, "I want to talk to her too." He walked ahead of the strange thief.

The Kaitou blinked, confirming that there was a faint blush on the boy's pale cheeks.

After the threat was lifted, everyone else took the first step. It is not good to waste too much time and arouse the suspicion of the family members. Now only Tiri and Alice are left in the hall.Kuro seemed to have been shrunk down into a doll by Alice, who was hugged by Alice.

"Big Brother!" Seeing the two people coming in, Alice happily ran towards the Phantom Thief, "Thank you!"

"It was you who saved us, so I should thank you." The strange thief knelt down and picked up Alice and patted her on the back.

"Alice is terrified..."

The way the two get along well is very novel, and the white crow looks at Ti Rui next to him.

"It was the strange thief who woke up first and helped Alice get out of control." Tiri explained, "If he hadn't ambushed behind the throne, it would be hard to guarantee your safety now."

"At that time, we only considered that Alice's attack would not exceed the hall, but we forgot about Hei's own strength." The trickster behind him admitted his mistake sincerely, "The performance almost failed."

"When doing AOE, you should also consider the opponent's level A. I will teach you next time when you switch." White Crow smiled, "Alice."

"What's wrong?" Alice, who was put on the ground by the phantom thief, turned to look at the white crow, "Brother also wants to go back? He disappeared like everyone just now!"

"Yeah. But there is one more thing I want to ask you." White Crow pointed at the Phantom Thief, "Alice, can you make him appear in the real world?"

"Alice tilted her head strangely, "Isn't that the same as the chaos caused before? "

"Almost, but right and safe this time."

"Hmm..." Alice thought for a while, "What Brother Crow wants is a specific form that can be seen and touched."

"Yes."

"I can indeed let myself be seen by my friends in the real world, but other people can't feel my existence. Xiaoyou is called a freak by others because he chatted with me. Brother Baiya doesn't want to be called a freak by others, right? ?”

"So I'm sorry big bro. Alice... can't do it."

He failed.

For the first time, White Crow realized how ridiculous he was.He tried to find the most perfect solution, and he adopted the easy mode in which the brave defeated the dragon to rescue the princess and then made a wish to the fairy, forgetting that all of this is not a game that is also composed of data.Reality is reality, the previous confusion was due to Hei forcing Alice to overdraw his power, and now he obviously can't let Alice's newly recovered body go into overdrive again.

"It's expected." The strange thief didn't seem to have much regret, "How can I break the rules for so long. Then, Miss Alice, can I grant one of my wishes?"

Feeling guilty for not being able to help the white crow, Alice turned around quickly after hearing this, "Okay! Alice will do as long as she can!"

"Is anything ok?"

"Yeah!" The little girl nodded happily.

"Then..."

"Cut me off from him."

"You crazy thief!" White Crow was about to punch him in an instant, but was held back by Tiri, who had grown bigger due to the recovery of strength behind him, "Do you know what you are talking about!"

"Calm down White Crow." Tiri's voice fluctuated slightly, "He's doing it for the good of all of you."

"Didn't you recognize him as your big brother!" White Crow yelled at the trickster next to him, "Why didn't you stop him!"

The trickster casually said, "I've done enough. His synchronization rate has just exceeded 90% and entered an irreversible state. No matter how long he stays in the spiritual world, he will not be saved. Incapacitated. Don't forget, if he hadn't regained a little strength these days, he wouldn't even be able to do the sneak attack just now."

"You still have to fight, White Crow. The Kaitou is completely incapacitated, but the other mind-forms will help—"

White Crow's body trembled with anger, "You all regard him as a tool for fighting, an immortal monster, a scumbag with unknown positions..."

"But I treat him as a human being!"

He didn't intend to meet him again at all, that's why the kiss was so hard and desperate.

There will never be another "person" who can fall in love with a monster like himself.

"Big brother...do you really want to do this?" Alice hesitated seeing everyone's reactions, "Brother Crow seems to be in pain."

"It's okay." The strange thief seemed to have suddenly remembered something, and raised his hand to signal Alice to wait, "Since it's already 90%, it doesn't matter if it's more." He walked towards the white crow.

Glancing at Ti Rui, the other party let go of his hand tactfully.White Crow obviously had some difficulty even standing still, but he still clenched his fists and stared at the strange thief.He sighed and looked at the boy who was similar in stature to himself.The other party's eyes were burning with incomprehensible emotions, hatred, despair, sadness, and...expectation.

Then let him extinguish this last hope.

Holding the boy's cheek in his hands, he kissed it for the last time.Different from any purpose and action in the past, this is just a kiss, as gentle as a superficial touch.

The synchronization rate exceeds 90%, the player White Crow obtains the highest level of authority, and the final level is unlocked.

Crow's eyes widened, and he saw familiar golden shards, now blooming like flowers.It was something that the thieves hid at night by the sea.It is discarded data, blocked information, and top secret during the research of the spiritual world.

It's feelings.

The psychic world is only a tool for healing, and the emotional psychic form can get out of hand without the technology being perfect.In order to avoid accidents, this part was sealed as a secret, and the clause "excessive synchronization rate will cause loss of ability" was set to shake the mind-forms' minds to continue exploring.Because with feelings, humans start looking after their own interests.Nobody ever wants to cross the 90% that stands for a death sentence.

The white crow saw their shared memories, and at this moment every frame seemed to be full of ironic jokes.

Lips separated.

"Close your eyes when you kiss."

He said the same thing when we first met, from the beginning to the end.

Something landed on the crow's shoulder, the familiar plush touch.It's that cloak.The white crow remembered that the cloak was also a part of the data, and now it faithfully followed its master and turned into an entity.

"A farewell gift. Bai, take him away." The inseparable inseparability was just an illusion, the other party suddenly pushed hard, and the white crow fell backward into Ti Rui's arms.He heard Tiri sigh. "Let's go, White Crow. The forced transfer is activated."

"I don't want it! You obviously—" He rushed forward to catch the strange thief.The hand that had already touched the back turned into a point of light.White light flashed, and the world in front of him became blurred. He couldn't tell whether it was tears or space distortion.

"Go ahead, Alice."

Sitting down on the floor of the activity room of the Special Course Department, White Crow panted heavily.Tiri knew that he needed some time to be alone, so he looked at him wordlessly for a while before disappearing back into the spiritual world.

The afterglow of the setting sun cast on him through the glass window, it was already steaming hot June, but he seemed to be in an ice cave.It was already a holiday, and the teaching building was empty and quiet.The evening wind knocked on the wind chimes in the corridor, sending out crisp echoes.

He suddenly realized that there was no one who would bother him again and again.

White Crow held the cloak in his arms with one hand, stood up while holding the table with difficulty, and took out his cell phone.

Mind liberated.On the other side of the bridge, that familiar shadow has not come, and will never come again.

The phone slipped, and there was a hideous crack in the middle of the smile logo.

White Crow knelt down on the ground, firmly grasped the cloak on his shoulders, and covered his eyes with the fur collar.He is twitching.The wet fluff on the collar drooped ugly, the fluff sticking together into strands, and the water dripped on the ground, unable to bear the weight at the tip.He recalled that he once got angry with the other party and wanted to install a bug in it.

Now he can't hear anything.
