Chapter 895 Words are like knives
Before Conan could examine what he was talking about, Hattori Heiji, who ran into the room first, had already moved the Buddha statue on the ground, and as expected saw the blood stains hidden in the corner.
The dried reddish-brown traces were covered by the tatami pattern directly pasted under the glass by the Buddha statue, occupying a considerable area. Considering that it was only about a quarter of the original blood stain, it is not difficult to surmise that it was said that he had seen it the morning before. What a horrific scene.
Shi Lian sighed, clasped her hands together, looked at Chuan Jiu's expression hesitantly, and then looked back at Tang Ze who was smiling at him. In the end, she just recited the Buddha's name, no longer hiding anything, and truthfully described the cause and effect of the incident.
A mother who has been disqualified for eighteen years suddenly realizes her conscience. She returns to the place where she abandoned her child in order to get back the missing feelings. But she has never been a mother and has avoided this role for more than ten years. She is obviously not something. Good mother, this caused Shi Lian's dissatisfaction, so she hoped that before they formally recognized each other, she could at least sincerely repent for her past actions.
Chuanjiu was the most well-behaved and obedient of the children he brought up. His incomplete family caused a lot of loss in his growth, but it did not prevent him from growing into a very good person.
Shi Lian, who never thought she was good at educating children, felt that this was a good relationship that Chuanjiu had forged by herself, so she always hoped that God would treat this lonely child better.
Love brings sorrow, love brings fear, nothing more than this.
"...Greed, anger, and ignorance are all karma." Speaking of how he sent a woman who attempted suicide to the hospital and therefore missed the time to clean up the scene, Shi Lian clasped her hands together again and reflected on herself, "This is also my fault. I didn't To tell you the truth, maybe I don’t want to face this. What the young gentleman said makes sense. Your birth is not your choice. You have been abandoned by your family once. It is your own freedom to deal with this relationship. You are no longer a child who cannot take care of yourself, and you have even become more mature because of this matter. I should let you know about the inner demon.”
Chuanjiu, who never expected the truth to be so brutal, stared at him blankly for a moment, then lowered his head and looked at the blood on the ground that had dried completely and could no longer be washed away.
His loss was palpable. After all, no child would wish that his parents didn't love him, and it's not a good feeling to have his hopes frustrated.
But after Chuanjiu was silent for a moment, he just clasped his hands and returned a salute to Shi Lian, who was already showing his age: "There is nothing wrong with your idea. Since this benefactor has forgotten the past, it means that I and She has no fate. She really shouldn’t force things that are not fate.”
"That's fine if you think so. But what I did was really inappropriate." Shi Lian also looked at the mark and closed his eyes. "Words are like knives. If used improperly, they will become vicious beasts that eat people." , a murderous weapon. You must use it carefully after understanding the other person's intentions, no matter who the other person is."
"Master, you are still so harsh on yourself..." Chuanjiu smiled bitterly, slowly exhaled, and his expression became visibly relaxed.
It can be seen that after letting go of the nostalgia and concern for his biological parents and letting go of this weird urban legend, Chuanjiu's condition has improved a lot, and there is even a vague sense of open-minded Buddha nature in his whole body, which is consistent with This quiet temple is completely integrated.
It's a very touching scene, with a hint of sadness and warmth. Apart from concealing the fact that a tourist committed suicide in a courtyard, the abbot did nothing extraordinary, so naturally it was not the real police's turn to appear.
The matter seemed to have come to an end with the master and apprentice talking about the problem. However, Conan pushed up the glasses on his face and felt some subtle changes in the surrounding environment.
At the same time, Tang Ze hooked his fingers and glanced at the panel that only he could see. After confirming that he had made some progress in collecting desire stones, he retracted his hand with satisfaction.
This was the main reason why he made a special trip to exchange with Hoshikawa Teru. Tang Ze was not sure whether his teammates could do this for him in collecting environmental elements.
Conan, who was thinking hard, silently followed Kogoro Mori's pace, but his thoughts always stayed in that small Japanese room.
Akechi Goro's secretive mouth words flashed before his eyes, and he looked at the pool of blood again, as if he vaguely heard a sharp scream that sounded for a short time and then disappeared without a trace.
If this matter has something to do with Cognitive Hexue, then the biggest difference between him and Hattori Heiji and others is probably that he accidentally followed the guys from the Phantom Thieves on a trip to "the other side of the world." one side".
Thinking again of the mother who lost her memory inexplicably and Chuanjiu who could see strange blood stains...
"Well, it does have something to do with cognitive psychology."
Tangze, who had already eaten and drank enough, held his chin, watching the hungry detectives who had no food until the afternoon, and glanced at the girls sitting at the other table talking quietly, confirming Conan's suspicion.
"Although it is not similar to what those monster thieves did, you have heard of it, right? People who are strongly stimulated may lose their memory without suffering any trauma. Human emotions and feelings are complicated. , but after all, it is also a physiological reaction caused by various substances in the brain. When it fluctuates violently, it will in turn affect the human body itself. "
"Just like many mental illnesses have somatic symptoms?" Hattori Heiji, who sounded quite interesting, tried to discuss it.
"Yes, it feels almost the same. Cognitive psychology, compared to ordinary psychology, emphasizes the role of cognition in transforming the world. I will explain it to you with simple principles," Tangze lowered his head and looked at the person in front of him. For dessert, use a spoon to scoop out the strawberry decoration on top. Come, dangled in front of both of them, "Her regret and trauma turned into substance, directly separated from her 'cognition', and stayed in that place. And Chuanjiu also had the same feeling because he witnessed the too bloody scene. ”
To put it in a way that Tangze himself can better understand, this mother has precipitated a stone of desire.
Although the desire stone in this world somehow grew out of Tang Ze, making him seem like a filter of cognitive power, Tang Ze has not forgotten that the desire stone itself is one of the collection elements of the game. , is a crystallization composed of human memories and desires, itself something that can be discovered and collected by the masker. *(Note)
The reason why she did not form a shadow or a palace may be related to this. It is also possible that without the detective and his intervention, the unsolved legend could not be forgotten for a long time. The more deeply affected it was by the desire stone, it also transformed into Things like the Buds of the Palace...
In short, perhaps one of the biggest impacts of the suturing of the two worlds is that some urban legends that could only be filmed in two episodes of Approaching Science have somehow gained scientific basis and become real urban legends.
Such as today.
"I, can it still be like this?" Hattori Heiji held his forehead in surprise, "Doesn't that mean that what Denku experienced was not an illusion at all, but a real urban legend?!"
"This is indeed the case at this stage of research. Just like when Lan and I lost our memory before, then why do you think Kyousuke Futo, a psychiatrist, relies on external objects to directly cause our degenerative amnesia? There must be a reason for the phenomenon. It will be understood as metaphysics before there is any reason. This is also a normal stage of scientific development." Tang Ze spread his hands and talked seriously.
In fact, he is not completely talking nonsense. He has read through the information left by Tangze and his wife, and has other crooked colleagues' documents as supplementary materials. Now Tangze is not good at doing research, so it is okay to talk about the principles.
"I thought those who engaged in cognitive learning were just magicians..." Hattori Heiji slowly turned his hat back. "A magician with a scientific explanation." Conan corrected, and then fell into the next step of thinking, "In that case, how did Goro Akechi discover it?"
"Well, because he is a person who has undergone experiments. Maybe he will notice something is wrong." Tang Ze shrugged, putting on a helpless expression of pretending to be innocent, "Who knows, this is a science after all. As a discipline that is still developing, there must be many unexplainable people or things like this in the world... Why are you two looking at me? ”
When Karasawa put the strawberry into his mouth, he raised his head and saw the two detectives grabbing the edge of the table for no apparent reason and moving towards him.
Hattori Heiji didn't say anything. He just put down the plate he had emptied and moved closer. Then he whispered like a secret signal: "The power of making your wishes come true? So, what Kudo said, you That, that ability, is it real..."
Although this is indeed something that should be plotted in a low voice, looking at him in a sneaky way, he seems to be asking "if there is such a resource"...
Feeling that he had nothing to hold in, Tangze leaned back a little defensively: "What do you want to say?"
"Ahem, just, you asked us before, that, that is, if we have any wishes that we want to realize..." Hattori Heiji's voice dropped even lower, and he looked almost sneaky.
"If you want to confess, go and confess yourself." Tang Ze, who had already guessed what he was going to say, raised his hand.
Hattori Heiji became even more excited when he heard what he said: "You can really feel my thoughts!"
"Do you still need to feel this? It's almost written on your face." Conan raised his eyelids, "I've told you to work hard on this kind of thing yourself, how can there be any reason to let others do it for you..."
"Yeah, the most we can do is help you with advice." Tang Ze also spread his hands, "If you ask me, you shouldn't worry about anything all day long, such as the occasion, timing, and atmosphere. Just find a day with clear weather and be serious. Isn’t it enough to just tell her? Although it is said that ‘sharpening a knife does not stop chopping wood’, you can’t just sharpen the knife without chopping wood?”
"This, this kind of thing, can't be that simple... Moreover, the two of us have been fooling around together since we were young, and we grew up together. Even if we hold hands, it's like the left hand holding the right hand." After talking about it, his voice As thorough as a mosquito, "If there is no suitable occasion and I don't say it very seriously, she will just think that I am joking... This is not okay..."
Conan, who was still listening to him carefully at first, wanted to roll his eyes the more he listened, so he simply ignored Hattori Heiji, who was in the troubles of adolescence, and extended his hand to Karasawa expectantly.
Tang Ze rolled his eyelids, but still reached into his commuter bag in cooperation, then pulled out a can of cold coffee and stuffed it into his hand.
"Why do I feel like you're not making a wish at all? You just treat me like a coffee machine that doesn't cost money..."
"Well, it's better than some idiot who wants to make a wish and confess successfully, right?"
"Okay, let's talk about it, it's true."
"Hey you two, I'm still there..."
Xingchuan Hui, who had changed into casual clothes and was sitting in the corner with glasses on, listened to the movement behind him and rolled his eyes silently.
Although he understands the truth, Tangze also held a formal discussion meeting in the group, discussing how the cognitive base of this world is likely to be related to the field of criminal investigation. As an important guide, detectives are all objects worthy of developing good relationships. It was an important speech, but he still didn't understand why the leader was playing guessing games with these detectives all day long.
The hostility of Akechi Goro played by Karasawa towards them is fake, but Hoshikawa Teru himself, who was used as a prototype and formed a part of Akechi Goro, really does not like them.
I don't like their taking things for granted, nor do I like their extravagance.
"I still haven't noticed that there is something completely wrong with the leader. Who is the fool? I say..."
Moreover, he really didn't realize what was so great about their so-called excellent qualities that Tang Ze always praised?
When they feel that Goro Akechi is on the opposite side, isn't their attitude just as annoying?
Hoshikawa Teru's idea only lasted until the opening of the Detective Koshien variety show.
After he put on the Akechi suit and stood neatly and delicately at the door of the TV station, waiting for Amuro to take them in for communication and exchange with Karasawa, because he was successfully packaged and sold, he had to deal with Hattori Heiji, who was traveling with him, saw him from a distance and took the initiative to walk over.
Behind him was Toyama Kazuye, who was waving his hands and cheering for him.
She found a poster in her hand at some point and shook it while shouting: "Hey, idiot Heiji, work hard, you are the representative of our western region, don't lose!"
"You're so noisy!" Hattori Heiji turned his head and awkwardly rejected Aome's support. He stood in front of Hoshikawa Teru and cleared his throat.
Hoshikawa Teru, who raised his head from the phone screen, maintained Goro Akechi's normal gentle smile and raised his eyebrows at him, as if asking him what he wanted to say.
"Well, uh, I'm here to apologize. I did go a little too far when I said that to you before."
Xingchuan Hui, who had just complained about him in his heart:?
