When the fog dispersed, Lulunaka returned to the Cape Chapel.
The sea breeze was refreshing, the sound of the sea was continuous, and the sky was blue and the sea was quiet. It was as if she had never left at all. After a long journey, she finally came back here in a circle.
No chapel could be as strange as this one. So in front of Lulunaka's eyes, there was no doubt that it was the place in her memory. As for whether it was real or not, it was another matter.
If there was anything different about everything in front of her, if Olga and the others were here, they would probably be surprised. This chapel didn't look as shabby as they saw when they first arrived.
The clean brick walls, the brand-new door, and the constant sound of the bell.
Someone was ringing the bell. In the chapel of the Cape Chapel, Apo would not do such a thing, and Lulunaka had no such interest.
Lulunaka stood not far away. In her line of sight, she could see the entire chapel.
"It's so familiar, yet so unfamiliar … What year did it look like?
I feel like I can't remember. "
While Lulunaka was observing with interest, the door was pushed open and some people came out.
It was a group of young children. Some were slightly older, and some were still young.
They were wearing all kinds of clothes, some were wearing simple clothes, and some were wearing gorgeous clothes. There were even a few children with strange skin colors and scales on their skin.
These children still had the naivety of their age, and of course, they were naughty. Their chattering sounds were as annoying as birds. Even if Lulunaka stood far away, she could still remember all kinds of troubles in the past.
In the middle of these children, there was a person who was surrounded by these children.
She was wearing a black Nuns suit. Although she was petite, she was already tall among these children, although she was still far from an adult.
The children pulled her, which made her have a troubled expression on her face. She looked like a person who had dozens of chicks hanging all over her body.
Although her face was full of annoyance from being pulled by these children, she did not seem to have any intention of being rude to them and still allowed them to pull her.
Lulunaka rubbed her chin, looking pensive. "Was I so gentle in the past?"
She muttered to herself, "If that's the case, then it doesn't seem strange that I've raised a bunch of idiots, bastards, and wretches.
Indulging children too much may not be a good thing for education … "
The one surrounded by the children was none other than Lulunaka.
This Lulunaka in the Nuns costume wasn't as gentle as the Lulunaka in the cloak said. Her face was full of annoyance, and her mouth was saying something, forming a sharp contrast with the laughing children around her.
If this was considered as gentleness, then Lulunaka's standard judgment of gentleness was more strange.
This Lulunaka in the Nuns costume led these children to the back of the church. It seemed that she intended to go to the end of the high promontory.
Seeing this scene, Lulunaka recalled all kinds of things in the past.
"These little fools are always thinking about whether they can catch fish in that kind of place. God knows what kind of fishing rod can withstand the beating of the waves. Besides, instead of fishing in that kind of place, it's better to hang people there. Maybe they can attract a few big fish. But those fish can't eat them."
At that time, Lulunaka didn't have the interest to hang people under the promontory to be beaten by the wind and rain. Perhaps this saying was a bit wrong. She didn't have this interest in the past, and she didn't have it now.
But at that time, she did often hang some ignorant people under the promontory for a day and a night, or a few days and nights … until that person collapsed or was half dead.
From this point of view, Lulunaka in the past was indeed gentler than she was now.
At least Lulunaka in the Nuns costume wouldn't hang Julius under the promontory.
Maybe, maybe, probably wouldn't do such a thing.
Lulunaka in the Nuns costume led a group of children and disappeared in front of Lulunaka's eyes. They didn't seem to notice Lulunaka in shabby clothes. Of course, it was possible that they didn't notice her.
"Should I go and greet them?
Hello, the other me in the past; hello, the future me … This kind of wonderful conversation is really interesting. "
When Lulunaka stepped forward to follow them, a voice came from behind her.
"Why do you want to go there?
Is this a very important thing? "
Lulunaka was not familiar with this voice.
This was not strange. People could recognize other people's voices, but their own voice was always familiar yet strange.
Lulunaka turned around and looked at the owner of the voice.
At this point, Lulunaka was no longer surprised by the appearance of another her.
"Although I can't go and say hello to my other self, it doesn't seem to be much different from saying hello to you."
Lulunaka smiled and then waved to the new Lulunaka. "Hello, the previous me."
The new Lulunaka was wearing a yellow robe with a hood on her head, which made her whole person blended into the shadow of the robe.
This Lulunaka without a smile on her face was exuding an aura that had nothing to do with happiness.
Her face was solemn. If it weren't for the fact that her appearance was exactly the same, the feeling she gave people was completely different from Lulunaka.
Of course, she was not Lulunaka. In the distant past, Lulunaka was not called Lulunaka.
She used to have many names, but now only Lulunaka was left.
"Looking at you, it feels like you have a mother … or a sister?"
Lulunaka observed the yellow-robed Lulunaka in front of her and clicked her tongue in wonder. "Looking at my past self, it really makes people feel shy.
You're not going to teach me a lesson, are you? "
"What you need is not education, but self-reflection."
The yellow-robed Lulunaka said. Her voice was very cold. Although the voice was the same, it sounded like a completely different person.
"From the past until now, you always messed up everything, but you never thought you did anything wrong.
You gave power to others, and they died because of greed; you gave wisdom to others, and they died because of thinking; you gave freedom to others, and they died because of indulgence … You messed up everything, everything. "
"You're not really going to educate me, are you, the other me?
Heavens, it feels like I have a mother, and this mother is the me from who knows how long ago! "Lulunaka held her head with both hands, with a painful look on her face.
Her exaggerated acting did not make the yellow-robed Lulunaka in front of her have any change in expression.
"If you were me, you should understand how I feel, right?
It's like a mother who I haven't seen for a long time suddenly appeared, and then said a lot of things to me, without giving me a chance to interrupt. "Lulunaka continued," Do you regret it?
Repent!
You're wrong, you're guilty, you shouldn't be like this … Saying things that make people upset, as if you want your child to die.
Was I like this in the past?
Is it because people always hate their past selves? That's why I'm so upset when I see you now. "
As Lulunaka spoke, she came closer to the yellow-robed Lulunaka.
Their faces were very close, and their foreheads were about to touch.
"Or should I say, I wasn't like this in the past?"
"I'm you, and you're me." The yellow-robed Lulunaka's answer was very simple.
Hearing her words, Lulunaka's face showed a strange smile, "No, no, no … You know, if you were really me, then you wouldn't say such things.
Do you know what I would say?
I'm not you, and you're not me.
But I belong to you, and you belong to me … I'm us, and we're me.
I'm one, and you're one. One is both me and you — One is us. "
The yellow-robed Lulunaka turned into a mosaic, and then disappeared in front of Lulunaka's eyes.
The chapel on the cape, the forest in the distance, the blue sky and the sea, all turned into a mosaic, like broken glass, falling to the ground and no longer existing.
Lulunaka was now in a dark and empty space, and she was holding a diamond-shaped purple crystal in her hand.
This crystal was the size of her fist, and the beautiful surface had a seductive glow.
No one would not be attracted by the thing in Lulunaka's hand. It could stimulate people's greatest desire and greed, but its use was not limited to that.
Lulunaka held the large purple crystal in front of her eyes, "After so many years, you still don't have the ability to learn. But it's too much to expect a prop to have such a function.
But this year, you're quite interesting. After reading my memory, you want to imitate me?
His impersonation is quite similar. "
Thin and dense cracks appeared on the purple crystal.
Lulunaka continued, "Unfortunately, I know what kind of thing you are, but you don't know me. This is something you can't understand because you're already broken."
The cracks spread all over the surface of the purple crystal.
A clear female voice came from inside the crystal. "The damage level has reached 78%. The agreement has been damaged. Activating safety measures to protect the customers … Currently, the number of customers in use is …" The female voice was flat and emotionless. Although she was speaking, it only made the people who heard her feel that it was out of place and surprised.
This was definitely not what a human voice should sound like.
Lulunaka continued, "The number of customers is 467.5 million. I'm not counting the change.
As an entertainment product, the serious consequences of your malfunction are shocking. This number of deaths can be recorded in history — unfortunately, there won't be that kind of record.
But this doesn't seem to be a strange thing. Anyway, people have disappeared once because of something even more ridiculous. And an entertainment product like you has become a nightmare of dreams and trials … It's a pity, but it's also helpless. Before you completely malfunction, I have to make you disappear first. "
The female voice became weaker and blurrier until it finally disappeared completely.
The purple crystal in Lulunaka's hand turned into powder and dissipated in the darkness.
"Thank you for helping me until the end."
Lulunaka looked at her empty palm with a faint smile on her face, "As an entertainment product, your problem is indeed fatal. But as a trial, sometimes you can bring me some interesting people or things."
The darkness around Lulunaka suddenly disappeared.
She was once again in the thick fog, standing on the patterned floor.
It looked like she had never left this place. It had only been a short period of time.
"Let me see where the others have gone." Lulunaka walked into the thick fog.
After that, she walked into the old building where Padding and the others were.
