Chapter 103

If it's a family member, it should be my sister, right?

Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously rubbed Hatae's hair. The other party not only did not resist, but also took the initiative to rub her palm, showing a pleasant smile, looking like a clingy child.

If possible, she wouldn't mind having another sister.

But there must be a prerequisite.

So, she asked Bo Dao straight to the point:
"Why do you want to kill everyone on the island on the 24th? What is your purpose?"

In their third reincarnation, Amidai Shinpei and Shadow Ushio lived until the Summer Festival on the 24th, and personally experienced the scene of Hatada and Yanki Masa people wiping out everyone on Hito Island. This memory passed through the previous memories. The sharing was also conveyed to her.

However, Amidai Shinpei and his group have yet to get an answer as to why they did this.

Only during the fourth reincarnation, they once caught Bo Dao and got some unclear words from her like "We are going back" and "We are going back together as a family".

She was also very curious about this. Since Bo Dao had landed on this island hundreds of years ago and had always been at peace with the residents of the island, why was he suddenly going on a killing spree now?

"Have you shared memories with Shenpei and that traitor?"

Bo Dao tilted his head when he heard this. He didn't pay too much attention to it, but said positively:
"So……!"

Halfway through, she suddenly paused and then changed her words:
"Because I want to take everyone back to my hometown!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka noticed this subtle abnormality.

Since the Shadow Tide can quickly transmit information through shared memory, there is no reason why Hatao, as a [mother], cannot do so.

But for some reason, the other party suddenly chose to use words.

Is it because she still doesn't trust him?

But it doesn't feel right.

Also, return to your hometown?
This keyword attracted her attention, and Bo Dao soon gave her the answer.

The hometown in Bo Dao’s mouth is called [Chang Ye].

Although it is said to be her hometown, it is more accurate to say that it is an alien space that accompanies her.

[Chang Ye] is located in a higher dimension than the current world, where time does not flow, and it is a paradise of eternal peace.

However, only she and the shadows she reproduced can live in [Eternal Night] for a long time. If ordinary humans enter [Eternal Night], their bodies will gradually collapse until they turn into invisible data and become the nutrients of [Eternal Night].

Therefore, her plan is very simple, which is to transform the islanders she likes into shadows, take them to [Eternal Night], and live a happy life forever.

"Forehead"

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression was a little subtle.

This also means that Bo Dao’s intentions were good, but due to different concepts and extreme methods, her behavior was unacceptable to people and caused serious consequences.

Such a strong sense of sight.

She felt as if she had dealt with similar incidents countless times when she was in Chaldea. Didn't she expect that it would be the same this time?

And speaking of it, it seems that most of the initiators of those events eventually came to Chaldea and became her followers.

Ah this
Thinking of this, she couldn't help falling silent for a moment.

But looking on the bright side, doesn't this mean that she is an expert in handling such incidents?

Of course, now is not the time to consider these issues, because Bo Dao's words cannot fully explain her behavior.

So she went on to ask:
"If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to just transform the residents of the island into shadows and then return to [Eternal Night]? Why do we have to kill everyone on the island?"

Hearing this question, Bo Dao suddenly felt depressed and said aggrievedly:
"Because I was seriously injured and I have to recover first."

"Severe injury?"

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously expressed concern:

"Where are you injured? Are you okay?"

Seeing that the concern and worry on her face didn't seem to be fake, Bo Dao suddenly smiled from the bottom of his heart. It seemed that even the injuries on his body improved a lot under the other party's care.

"Well, it's okay for now."

When she talked about her injuries, her smile faded a lot. "However, my body is getting weaker and weaker now. If I continue like this."

As if thinking of something terrible, Hatae's body trembled slightly with fear. Seeing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka touched her head comfortingly.

After being comforted by Fujimaru Ritsuka, her mood stabilized again and she continued to tell the reasons for the entire incident.

During the war, Wakayama City and Hito Island, which was a defensive base at the time, were targeted for air raids and bombed. It was at that time that the body of Hatada was severely damaged.

As a high-dimensional creature that feeds on information, her body can recover naturally as long as she replenishes enough information.

On the earth, the creature with the most information is human beings.

Since she transformed into a human and lived in seclusion on Ridu Island, she has been feeding on human corpses. However, after suffering a severe injury, she urgently needed a lot of information. However, the residents of Ridu Island were unable to meet her needs.

With her injuries unable to recover for a long time and lack of food, her body became increasingly weak and even gradually died.

Moreover, since [Chang Ye] is an alien space that was created with her, if she dies, [Chang Ye] will also collapse.

This is obviously not the result she wants to see.

So she and Yankiri Masato made a plan, which was to turn the residents of the island into shadows, and at the Summer Festival on the 24th, she would recover from her injuries by devouring a large number of tourists, and then take everyone to [ Changye] and live a happy life forever.

"Great, this plan!"

After saying that, Hatae stared at Fujimaru Ritsuka with shining eyes, like a child waiting to be praised.

"Forehead"

But at this moment, it was difficult for Fujimaru Ritsuka to praise her against her will.

Because according to the other party's plan, she is also the tourist who should be devoured!
At this moment, Yankiri Masato, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly smiled and said:

"Speaking of which, it seems that we still don't know the name of this lady from the same race as Bo Dao."

"Yup!"

Hatae suddenly woke up, and then looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka. Upon seeing this, she could only introduce herself:

"My name is Fujimaru Ritsuka, just call me Ritsuka."

Bo Dao asked expectantly:
"Then can I call you Sister Lixiang?"

She laughed:
"of course."

Bo Dao happily jumped forward again.

"Sister Lixiang!"

On the other side, seeing the intimate interaction between the two, Yankiri Masato smiled and said:
"So, Miss Ritsuka, now that you have heard our plan, what do you think?"

Without waiting for Fujimaru Ritsuka to answer, he asked and answered himself:
"Great, right?"

"Since you are a member of the same race as Bo Dao, you should also understand how insignificant human beings are to Bo Dao."

"I only sacrificed some stranger tourists, but in exchange for Bo Dao's recovery and the immortality of the entire island's residents, I think there is no better deal than this."

After speaking, he smiled and said:

"Therefore, I sincerely hope that as a fellow member of the Boda clan, you can also join our plan."

"I think, compared to those insignificant humans, Bo Dao and us are your real family, right?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the squinting man in front of her and had some inexplicable thoughts in her heart.

According to her extensive experience in handling such incidents, there are generally one or two culprits in incidents.

One is a culprit like Bo Dao who, despite his good intentions, causes tragedy for various reasons;

There is also the real culprit who is often hidden and has truly bad intentions, leading the former astray or adding fuel to the fire.

This guy named Yankiri Masato is very much like the latter.

With this thought in her mind, facing the other party's invitation, she thought for a while and then said:

"Sorry, I refuse to join."
