An infinite journey starting from paradise

Lin Shangren continued, "Besides, doesn't using the shadow consume spiritual energy? The long-distance teleportation just now consumed a lot. If I continue to use the shadow, what if something goes wrong? It's better to use the knight form to save energy. After all, this energy is provided by Fululu.

"It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but only a moment to deploy it. You've absorbed so much of my yang energy, so it's okay if I use a little bit, right? Hey, Fururu-chan."

"A thousand dead heads! It's not even a hundred days yet, and I've only been given seventy-four rounds since our soul fusion, and that's even counting the times with Bai Ye and that dragonfly girl." Within Lin Shangren's soul, the bat lady roared, "Just wait. Once this is over, I'll squeeze you back a thousandfold. Be prepared!"

"learn."

Acknowledging Furulu's request, Lin Shangren turned to look at the frightened Sanshin Reiko and the bewildered Akazawa Izumi and Ayano Aya, and asked, "Are you all right?"

"What a ghost!"

Sanshin Reiko threw herself on Lin Shangren regardless of anything.

"I was so scared! You didn't tell me we'd encounter this kind of monster... I almost died. I'd never run errands for you again, even if I die... Wuuwuwu..."

Looking at the sobbing Sanshen Lianzi in his arms, Lin Shangren asked tentatively: "Then I'll leave?"

“Don’t leave!!!”

Sanshen Reiko hugged him tighter, pressing her naked breasts against Lin Shangren's body. Through his thin shirt, Lin Shangren could clearly feel those two cherry-red spots pecking at his chest like the beaks of young pigeons.

"That group must have mistaken me for one of yours. If you leave, I'll be in even greater danger! Don't try to shirk responsibility and abandon me. Take responsibility for it, you bastard!"

"What you said makes me sound like a scumbag who abandons you after having fun with you." Lin Shangren scratched his head. "Okay, okay, okay, don't cry. I will take responsibility. I can give birth to the child, and I will marry you and take good care of it. How about I kiss you now? Come on..."

Seeing that Lin Shangren really bent down to kiss her, Sanshen Lianzi quickly took a few steps back and covered her chest: "Who wants you to kiss me! Hooligan, pervert!"

"You're right, I did. But I kept my promise and came to save you in time. And you didn't get hurt, did you?"

"That's true, but...but...I just feel bad about going through this kind of thing..."

"Here, the gun is for you." Lin Shangren pulled out a Glock from the shadows and handed it to Sanshen Lianzi. "If you're unhappy, just shoot the guy who attacked you twice. Put it in her mouth to piss her off, and then burn her breasts with the red-hot barrel... cough cough cough..."

Lin Shangren originally wanted to say something forbidden, but he happened to meet the confused eyes of Ayano Aya and Akasawa Izumi.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing here? What is that flying monster? Why did the teacher become covered in purple crystals? Why did the monster shatter? Why is Teacher Sanshen hugging Teacher Lin? Are they a couple? What? They have a child? No... What does this have to do with us?!

"Teacher...you...uh...we...this...um. How should I ask?" Akasawa Izumi couldn't form the right words for a moment.

In the end, it was Lin Shangren who explained the current situation concisely and skillfully.

"So Teacher Lin came to Kitayami Town to solve the disaster of Class 3, Grade 3, and Teacher Sanshin is assisting Teacher Lin. Cai and I are just innocent passers-by who were accidentally involved." Akasawa Izumi concluded.

"I'm just an innocent passerby who was caught up in the accident... Damn it, this guy who wants to repay a favor!" said Sanshin Reiko.

Anyway, her image has collapsed, and she is too lazy to pretend to be elegant and intellectual in front of the two students.

"That's roughly what happened. I already have some clues about who's behind all this. The details still need further verification. Um... everyone, please turn around and step aside. The scene that's about to happen will be a little... not suitable for children."

As he spoke, Lin Shangren walked towards the vampire princess's "human stick" sealed in the amethyst? Or should I call it "princess handle"? In short, it was a torso with only the head left.

He snapped his fingers, dissolving the crystal that enveloped the vampire's head. As the crystal disappeared, the vampire finally let out her first scream after having her limbs torn off.

Lin Shangren stuffed the short-barreled Remington enchanted with physical exorcism into the vampire's mouth. The barrel, emitting golden light, emitted a burst of white smoke the moment it entered the vampire's mouth.

"Shut up. Or I'll hurt you more."

……

"I am back."

Misaki Mei pushed open the door to Misaki's doll workshop. For Misaki Mei, it was "a month ago." Her mother-in-law was probably still back home, and Misaki probably wouldn't have heard a word from anyone at that moment. But she still said, "I'm home," as if out of habit.

It was as if after saying this, this somewhat weird puppet workshop could at least feel a little like "home".

"Welcome home, thank you for your hard work...sister."

"!"

Jian Qiming was stunned. Not far in front of her stood a girl who looked exactly like her. The difference was that Jian Qiming had red eyes, while the girl's eyes were a deep dark green.

The girl wore a lake-blue, one-shoulder dress that made her already pale, sickly skin look even more dismal. She was thin, sickly, and pale, like a fragile porcelain doll. Just like… Jian Qiming.

The girl looked at Jian Qiming with a smile, came closer to her very warmly, and reached out to take the schoolbag that Jian Qiming was carrying.

"Sister, how was your first day of school? Mom is preparing dinner. She made your favorite orange chicken. We'll be eating soon."

"The admission procedures were completed quickly, and I'll be able to attend Kitayami Middle School soon."

"I really hope I can be assigned to the same class as my sister... hehe."

The girl kept mumbling, as if she was very familiar with Mizaki Mei, as if she was really Mizaki Mei's twin sister. But Mizaki Mei knew very well that she did have a twin sister, her name was Fujioka Misaki...

"The girl's name is Misaki..." A voice of unknown gender sounded from Misaki Ming's mind, "She is my twin sister..."

The voice gradually became clearer, and finally it turned into the voice of Jian Qiming himself, and the things described by the voice gradually squeezed into Jian Qiming's memory.

"Misaki and I are twins, and Kirika is our mother. Misaki has been recuperating at home due to her frail health. Recently, her health has improved, and she can finally go to school like a normal girl.

Misaki and I are sisters... We will never leave Mommy... Misaki and I are sisters... We will never leave Mommy!"

"No! Who are you?!"

Jian Qiming felt a burning sensation in his chest, and the silver ring emitted a faint blue light.

"My twin sister is Fujioka Misaki, and I'm not Kirika... Aunt Yukiyo's biological daughter. Tokita Mitsuyo and Tokita Yukiyo are fraternal twins, but they look very similar, raised in the same environment and receiving the same education... Mitsuyo married first. She married a man named Fujioka, a young, hardworking clerk at a food-related company. Yukiyo married a year later, to the wealthy businessman, Mr. Misaki.

Later, Mitsuyo became pregnant first and gave birth to twins, Misaki and me. Yukiyo also became pregnant after I was born, but her child didn't survive. She was terribly sad, almost going crazy. And then, just then, the doctor told her that because of this accident, she would never have children again...

The Fujioka family, having received twins, were concerned about their inability to raise both children due to financial constraints. The Mizaki family, on the other hand, was determined to rescue Yukiyo from her despair... Thus, one of the twins born to the Fujioka family was given to the Mizaki family as an adopted daughter. That was... me.

The correct memories in Jian Qiming's mind kept emerging, fighting against the new memories that were forcibly implanted into her brain.

"Although Misaki is the sickest one, she has never shown favoritism towards anyone and always values ​​us sisters equally..."

"Aunt Wuguo... to her, I'm basically just a replacement for her unborn child. It's probably the same for my father, right? She loves me beyond belief. When my eyes were sick, she not only tried her best to treat them, but also made me a special prosthetic eye... I'm very grateful. But a replacement is still a replacement, and she always looks for the reflection of her unborn child in me."

Memories blended together, and Qi Ming covered her head in pain. The girl who called herself Misaki asked worriedly, "Sister, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Who are you?" Jian Qiming pulled off his blindfold. "Are you the deceased? Or... something else?"

"The deceased? No."

The girl who called herself Misaki held up Misaki Mei's face.

"I'm not Wuguo's unborn daughter, and her daughter won't be resurrected in this world as a dead person. Because... she's not dead at all. Don't worry, you won't die soon either."

I'm curious why you're not affected by the overwrite. I need to research this... "

Just when Misaki was about to attack Misaki Mei, the door of Misaki's doll workshop was pushed open.

Chapter 341: A disagreement leads to a fierce fight

According to the general routine, when the key female character is in danger, the protagonist, who is a trustworthy man (the most reliable and trustworthy man in the world), should appear as a hero in time.

But this time, it wasn't Hayashi Naoto who opened the door to the Misaki Doll Workshop, but Sakuragi Yukari and Kakinuma Sayuri. Their reason for coming here began nearly two hours ago.

Two hours ago, when Hayashi Naoto just started to have in-depth contact with Ayano Aya in the closet, Sakuragi Yukari was coaxed by Teshigahara Naoya to the music classroom on the first floor and listened to the tape.

Since Sakuragi Yukari's character was not as resolute as Akazawa Izumi's, she was hypnotized by Mochizuki Yuya into believing their outrageous and dangerous plan: to unite students who could not be the deceased and then hunt down those students whose families were connected to Class 3, Grade 3.

As the class monitor, Sakuragi Yukari had easy access to the student rosters of Class 3, Grade 3, and thanks to her popularity, she maintained contact with some of the seniors who had already graduated. So, upon returning to the classroom, Sakuragi Yukari quickly identified a few people she could "unite with": Kakinuma Sayuri, Ogura Yumi, and Mizaki Naru.

Among them, Kakinuma Sayuri is Sakuragi Yukari's best friend. Kakinuma herself doesn't have a strong opinion and is the easiest to "unite with." Ogura Yumi's brother died in the disaster that morning, and her hatred for the "dead" and the disaster is probably the deepest. It shouldn't be difficult to persuade her to kill the deceased to avenge her brother.

As for Mizaki Mei, who had been pretending to be someone she didn't exist, now that the disaster had already begun and the deceased had already infiltrated the class, there was no point in continuing to pretend there was already someone who didn't exist. Of course, she couldn't openly reveal this. So, Sakuragi Yukari quietly greeted Mizaki Mei and secretly asked for her address, so she could go to her house after school to discuss it in detail.

At this time, Sakuragi Yukari and Kakinuma Sayuri came to Mizaki Mei's house as promised, and happened to see the scene of Mizaki Mei and Misaki being "sister-friend and sister-respectful".

"Misaki-san, what are you doing...you..."

Looking at Mizaki Mei and Misaki who looked almost exactly the same, Sakuragi Yukari couldn't tell which one was the person she was looking for.

At this moment, Jian Qiming, who originally had a painful expression on his face, suddenly said: "Class leader... This is my sister Misaki. We are twins."

Tokita Misaki also smiled kindly and said, "Yes, you are my sister's classmates, hello. My name is Tokita Misaki, and I am Ming's twin sister."

"Tokita...?" Kakinuma Sayuri asked doubtfully, "What's your last name..."

"My sister takes my father's surname, and I take my mother's. My mother told me that our names were decided upon when she was in junior high school, before she met our father. She planned to have two children, one named Naru and the other Misaki, but the man she married had a surname called Misaki. Because Misaki didn't sound nice, I took my mother's surname," Tokita Misaki explained with a smile.

Hearing what his sister said, Jian Qiming felt a pain in his head.

"Because my name Misaki sounds the same as Aunt Yukiyo's husband's surname, I was adopted into the Misaki family...

Memory, this memory is real."

Mizaki Mei once again overcame the effects of the memory overwrite, but this time she maintained her apparent calmness, pretending that her memory had been overwritten, and enthusiastically invited Sakuragi Yukari and Kakinuma Sayuri in.

"We can only invite the squad leader and the others in. If we just ask them to go out and talk, this unknown thing might hurt us directly. We have to find a way to calm her down first." Jian Qiming thought, "Then find a chance to escape... What should I do? Who should I ask for help? Escape to the Fujioka family? No, I can't let Misaki and... Mom get hurt."

"Ah, there are guests at home. Are you Ming's friends?"

At this time, Wuguo came down from the second floor.

"Mother…"

Jian Qiming looked at the woman who was walking down the stairs. Unlike her usual gloomy and decadent self, Wu Guo today looked very... well... Jian Qiming couldn't find the right keywords.

Formal? Cheerful? Glamorous?

Kirika, or rather, Tokita Yukiyo, had obviously dressed up carefully. Her hair, which was previously casually tied up and resting on her chest, was now in a bun. She put on makeup after a long time, and for the first time ever, she wore a dress, a black spaghetti-strap dress with thin black straps hanging on her round, pale shoulders. Although it was a flat neckline, the neckline was very low, so two three-dimensional arcs could still be clearly seen.

The length of the skirt is also very... ambiguous: if it is longer, it will appear conservative; if it is shorter, it will make people feel frivolous. Now it is just stuck at the threshold of "still holding the lute half-covered".

Jian Qiming had never seen Wuguo dressed like this before. For a moment, she even doubted whether the woman in front of her was really the adoptive mother who had raised her for so many years.

"Come up, Ming and Misaki's rooms are on the second floor. By the way, stay and have dinner together tonight. I have prepared a lot of delicious food to celebrate." Wuguo said with a little excitement.

"celebrate?"

"Celebrating Misaki's recovery, and celebrating the return of Naruto and Misaki's father."

Wuguo answered, his eyes full of longing and happiness.

At the same time, in Wuguo's studio, a note fell to the ground.

"Let my daughter, let Misaki come back to life! Let me and my children have a complete family, and let our family live happily together forever."

The note was written by Wuguo.

An hour ago, Wuguo was on her way home from buying groceries when she saw a woman wearing a black kimono embroidered with red spider lilies. The woman's clothing, jewelry, makeup, and even appearance were exactly the same as the vampire doll Wuguo had made.

Wuguo was just about to take a closer look at this Coser whose aesthetic taste matched hers perfectly, but she witnessed the vampire princess transform into a group of bats and fly away.

This scene had a similar impact on Wuguo as the time she saw Kyogoku Makoto run off with his cart. Wuguo rubbed her eyes, thinking she was hallucinating again. That was until she returned to the puppet workshop, to her studio on the second floor.

It's gone...it's gone.

The vampire princess's doll disappeared! Was it really alive? Could it be that the wish she made on the note this morning had come true?!

Wuguo couldn't believe it.

Try it, try it again. Write your wishes down on paper. You have nothing to lose.

With this thought in mind, Wuguo wrote down his greatest wish on a note.

Just like the fable of the monkey's paw, the fulfillment of a wish often comes at a heavy price. To overwrite reality is to consume one's life.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will be more accidental murders in Beiyemi Town.

However, Wuguo was lucky, or rather, the residents of Beiyemi Town were lucky. As expected, an accident happened this time.

As for the person who caused the accident, it was of course Lin Shangren.

So what are Lin Shangren and his team doing now? What has he learned from the vampire princess? Has he identified the mastermind behind this?

To answer the second question first: Vampire Princess was born only today, and her actions are all directed by the mastermind behind the scenes. She herself knows nothing. Lin Shangren only learned from her that she is actually a puppet created by the Mist Fruit. As for why she came back to life, Vampire Princess herself is completely clueless. Therefore, Lin Shangren was unable to obtain much useful information from her.

As for the first question, "What is Lin Shangren doing?"

He was making… well, love.

Beiye Jian Town, Sanshen Lianzi's house, Sanshen Lianzi's bedroom.

The apricot-yellow curtains were drawn, letting the setting sun in a few inches, filling the room with a soft light. In the twilight-like twilight, a white, naked female figure knelt in the center of the room.

Her snake-like waist twisted slowly, each rise and fall causing her delicate buttocks to tremble uncontrollably. Sweat dripped down her fragrant skin, sliding down the watery curves of her waist and hips and down her thighs. Her toes were tightly curled, the soles of her feet red and tender, and she cried out in pain.

"Lin...Lin Shangren, you...hurry up, I'm almost out of strength...ah! Don't...don't move..."

Mikami Reiko's tone was forceful, but her body betrayed a certain weakness. Lin Shangren merely thrust forward, and her back stiffened, causing her to tremble uncontrollably. Mikami Reiko lowered her head, resting her chin on her neck, and forced her watery, silky eyes open. Her expression, almost on the verge of tears, resembled a cat trying to maintain its composure while also begging for mercy.

"Why don't I do it?" suggested Lin Shangren who was sitting.

"Stop talking nonsense! Humph...ah!"

Sanshin Reiko sat down abruptly, swallowing it whole, all the way in. This thrilled her so much that she threw her head back and screamed, shaking her hair and nearly fainting. Lin Shangren also felt like he was being tightly wrapped, as if a thin strand of hair had penetrated his body and was quickly pulled out, drawing out all his essence, blood, and strength...
