Eve showed her white wrist, and several wounds were slowly healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was a strange recovery like Lorenzo's. Her face looked frightened, although it was unclear how Lorenzo did it.
Yes, but she knew very well that it was something ominous.
"Am I... am I contaminated?"
The girl was a little scared. She shouldn't have told Lorenzo. Once she was really contaminated by the demon, Lorenzo would definitely kill her directly due to his character, but Eve also knew the dangers of the demon. Between the two, she
I still chose to be honest.
"It's not..."
Lorenzo stared at her and spoke slowly after a long time.
"It takes many conditions for a demon to contaminate a person, and the contaminated person will directly distort and mutate like Sabo, but you don't... your state is very stable... just like me."
"Like you?" Eve asked tentatively.
Lorenzo did not speak. He stood up and walked towards Eve, his eyes gradually lit up with fireworks, and the power called secret blood awakened in his body.
After a long time, the fireworks went out, and Lorenzo sat down again, but this time his eyes were full of confusion.
"There are only so many consequences after contact with demons, so your condition is actually quite easy to judge, but..."
After hearing this, Eve panicked and sat upright like a student.
"Eve, you know there are some things that once you come into contact with them, you can never leave them, such as monsters.
There is such a criterion in my knowledge, which is called a psychic. Most people do not have the ability to be a psychic, so even if something dark approaches them, most of them will be fine. In this regard, use two
It is more appropriate to describe the world. You can understand that we and the monsters live in the same world and the same city, but usually the monsters cannot see us. We are just a vague mist in their eyes. But
I can't see them either."
Lorenzo's voice became magical, and something seemed to fill the room unconsciously. It was everywhere, but it was impossible to distinguish.
"But if you understand too much dark knowledge, then this will deepen your connection with it. You will become clearer in the eyes of those monsters, and you will also see them."
Lorenzo smiled at this.
"For example, I am a psychic medium in human form. With the help of a little bit of herbs, I will be able to see things that living people cannot see."
"Eve, if you want to understand your own state, you will inevitably learn that knowledge. You will fall into the darkness little by little. The monsters in the fog will become clear to you, and you will gradually become
Become a psychic and be chased by darkness all day long."
Lorenzo looked at her seriously.
"So, the decision is yours. If you want to understand all this, you will inevitably deepen your connection with the darkness. Maybe your connection will be severed after many years, but no one can guarantee what will happen next. I need
It's your decision, the door to darkness is right in front of you, it's up to you whether to step in."
Listening to Lorenzo's words, Eve fell silent. She knew very well what Lorenzo meant. It was taboo knowledge. Once she understood it, she was destined to fall into the abyss.
"I have a few questions, am I going to turn into that?"
Eve asked.
"As long as you don't come into contact with demons, the possibility is very small. After all, your condition is very stable."
"Did this anomaly happen tonight?"
"No, the cause of tonight should be a secret blood of low purity, which caused everything in chaos, and the abnormality in your body should have come from a long time ago."
A long time ago? In other words, I had an encounter with this thing called a demon a long time ago?
Eve unconsciously clenched her hands, her finger bones turning white from the pressure.
The girl looked at Lorenzo intently. The detective didn't know when he had returned to his previous state. He no longer felt like killing embryos in cold blood, and he looked like a scum of society while sitting on a comfortable sofa.
The decision is right in front of her. The so-called crossroads of life are roughly like this. The girl thought a lot for a while, and finally answered seriously.
"tell me!"
The girl's eyes were firm and serious as never before.
Lorenzo was stunned. He had not seen this kind of look for a long time. He remembered that the last time he saw him, he was still working as a priest in Florence. Those children looked like this when they talked about what career they wanted to take in the future. They were full of persistence.
Stubborn and naive.
"I...can I hear the reason? If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't decide my origin, I wouldn't want to deal with these monsters."
After saying this, Lorenzo unconsciously thought of Saab, who died in his hands not long ago. No one can decide his own origin.
Eve's expression was slightly gloomy, but after thinking about it she still said it. She looked very calm, or terrifyingly calm.
“I’ve been having nightmares since I was very young, and I don’t actually know what they are. I just always dream about a scene, and I keep dreaming about it over and over again.
A woman was lying on the bed sleeping soundly. I couldn't see her face clearly, but I always felt very close to her. But suddenly something came out of her belly, just like the demon I met, it came out of that woman's belly.
It crawled out of my stomach...I couldn't see the thing clearly, and every time I wanted to see it clearly, I would wake up with a fright."
"Actually, I stopped dreaming about these things a long time ago, but I dreamed about them again the day before my mother died, and she died the next day. I was still young at the time, and I don't know if it was curiosity or something, but my
My mother was lying in a coffin filled with flowers, and I lifted up her clothes when no one was paying attention."
Eve curled up on the sofa with her head in her hands, muttering to herself.
"Like a miracle, I opened a corner of my clothes and there was a hideous scar on my mother's belly, as if some monster had crawled out of her belly."
"Actually, I have almost forgotten these, but just like the connection you said, as the connection continues to deepen, those things that I have forgotten have come back. I think if I go deeper, I may be able to know something.
."
It was a nightmare that had been surrounding Eve. She thought she had forgotten it, but sometimes she would suddenly remember it. As she grew older, it became clearer and clearer, as if the god of death crawled out of the scar and took away her mother's soul.
.
Eve always thought that this might be her imagination, but after tonight, everything strange was covered with the shadow of a demon.
Lorenzo took a deep look at Eve. Everyone did the same. Eve thought she had a chance to make a choice, but in fact the weird darkness was like a swamp and would not easily let go of anyone who set foot in it.
People, she thought she had the chance to refuse, but just like fate, there would always be a reason to push her to take action.
"I hope you won't regret it."
As Lorenzo spoke, he began to recall the things he had sealed away in the depths of his memory.
