Doomsday Wonderland Vol. 9: Esculent Alethia [Complete]

1047: Lin Sanjiu

When Lin Sanjiu's face gradually became clear in the night, Meowie Hu couldn't help but stand up and greet her with a meow. It was a cat sound that seemed to contain the scent of milk, causing Lin Sanjiu to startle and quicken her pace. "Dr. Hu? Is that you? Are you really here?"

Just from hearing a single meow, she recognized it as Meowie Hu. The little cat became excited, raising its tail and rubbing against Lin Sanjiu's legs, nearly tripping her. In the midst of the overwhelming joy of their reunion, Bohemia stood aside with her hands bound, her mouth drooping like an old lady.

"You didn't need me when things were happening. You only show up after everything is resolved. You certainly know how to choose your timing." Bohemia crumpled the paper crane she used to guide Lin Sanjiu and tossed it back. "Why is Dr. Hu so close to you? It's really hard to understand."

"Perhaps it's the imprinting effect."

Meowie Hu finished rubbing against Lin Sanjiu's legs and sat on the ground, analyzing itself in a calm and objective manner. "Shortly after my consciousness evolved, I met her. We adventured and survived together for quite a long time. Cats, you know, always like familiar things. So whenever I see Lin Sanjiu, I feel safe. Not to mention, she usually carries a lot of corpses with her."

Lin Sanjiu chuckled softly, stroking its head a few times. Its two pointed ears were pressed down and sprang back up repeatedly. She asked Bohemia, "Are you okay?" and was about to put the person she was carrying on her shoulder down on the ground. The person in black leather clothes with pale and bloodless skin vaguely visible was Puppeteer, who was still unconscious. Bohemia with sharp eyes quickly exclaimed, "Don't put him there! Move him a little!"

"What's wrong?"

"That white line is a Descartes Spirit."

This explanation would probably not make any sense to anyone. Lin Sanjiu stared at the white line for a while, puzzled, until the white line, unable to bear the invisible pressure, finally twisted its body and greeted them, "Yes, it's me, a Pocket Dimension."

"It can talk!" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but be startled, almost throwing the Puppeteer in her hands. "A Pocket Dimension? What is it doing here?"

"It seemed like it wanted to absorb me," Bohemia bragged about her achievements, feeling proud once again. "But I quickly imprisoned it. It wasn't enough to give me a fight."

Immediately, Bohemia and Meowie Hu recounted everything that had happened from beginning to end. While Lin Sanjiu listened, she carefully laid Puppeteer on the side of the road and sat down beside them.

"It's quite interesting..." Lin Sanjiu sighed softly when they finished speaking, "There's actually a Pocket Dimension that evolved from a single sentence? And you know about Descartes?"

Bohemia blushed, feeling scorned. "Who are you looking down on?"

"You never went to school..."

"Just because I didn't rely on school, you think you know everything? I think you have cognitive dissonance!"

As the two of them argued, the Descartes Spirit remained silent, only watching. Only the buzzing sound of the white line resonated in their minds, "I respect your differences, but could I take a step first..."

"Don't even think about going anywhere." Bohemia stepped on the wriggling white line with her heel. "Once we finish talking, I still have some questions for you. Be quiet for now, or I'll sprinkle some salt on you and eat you."

The white line lay on the dark road as if it had died.

With the sudden reunion of the two, there were naturally many things to say. They talked in a chaotic manner, making noise for a while, and, in the end, no one could hear what anyone said. Finally, they resorted to playing rock-paper-scissors to decide the order of speaking. Dr. Hu could only throw out paper most of the time, and even the few times it made a different move, they could tell from the movement of its front paws. As expected, it was the first one eliminated, and Lin Sanjiu emerged as the winner.
