Demon Sage

Donald meets his wife on a bridge in the southern suburbs of Preston.

What a beautiful picture of the amnesiac reuniting with their loved ones, hugging, kissing, expressing heartfelt feelings, such a picture is almost predictable.

But the actual situation is that the two sides maintain a high degree of restraint, even if it is the first meeting before strangers, the atmosphere may be better.

Donald was restrained because of the disgust he had with his wife in front of him and his ignorance of the situation.

What about the girl in front of you? She seems to be in her early 20s, even though her face is calm and quiet, why is she so reserved to the point of being on guard?

After being silent for about two minutes, Donald began to realize that there must be something or a contradiction between his predecessor and this girl. At this time, it was even more difficult for him to speak.

Oops…what can I do now, I dare not say a word…ask her if she has eaten? Or should I tell her that I accidentally fell and knocked my head and lost my memory?

Donald instinctively realized that he would end up badly by doing so, and wisely chose to remain silent.

More than patience, he has confidence.

“I will reduce my meeting with Freddy in the future.”

After a while, the girl spoke first, but the amount of information was a bit large.

Who is Freddy?

What is your relationship?

Why did you two tell me specifically about meeting less?

And still in this reluctant compromise tone.

“Um…”

Donald really didn’t know what to say except for the ambiguous word ‘um’.

I agree, no problem, I agree with your approach or no, I disagree, your approach is wrong, and none of these replies are appropriate.

He should try his best to avoid overly subjective responses.

Hide your clumsiness, hide your thoughts as much as possible about some unfamiliar affairs, and don’t let the other party seize the opportunity, which will expose his ignorance of the matter and cause suspicion and misunderstanding.

The current Donald can’t stand any temptation in the details of his life.

“en? Whatever you are, I’ll explain to you one last time that my relationship with him has absolutely nothing to do with what you think…you have the right to remain skeptical , go home, you have been missing for a week, I told the neighbors that you go to a friend’s house for a while… I hope you can think more before you run away from home next time, I don’t have too much Time is spent looking around for you.”

The girl didn’t say anything more, Donald Grant’s silence made her a little puzzled, because the quarrel a few days ago could be said to be very intense, but then She was relieved again, seeing the man’s sloppy state and the faint smell around him, it was obvious that he had already realized the disadvantages of running away from home.

Conversely, this can be considered a good thing.

Donald is very happy to have someone lead the way, at least he doesn’t have to go to the police station anymore, and he can avoid the dilemma of needing to explain why he doesn’t even know where his home is.

The question now is what happened between the girl in front of her and her predecessor.

From the feedback from memory, they are husband and wife.

There is a contradiction between the two sides, and the contradiction is not small, so that Donald wants to run away from home… No, in her eyes, the runaway is probably Donald for his Demon Descension Ceremony Preparations, is this a premeditated quarrel?

But it’s also possible that the quarrel spurred Donald into trading with the demon to get something.

There is also a key point. After the quarrel, why did Donald run away from home like a young daughter-in-law, and it is not usually women who return to their parents’ home?

**

233 Iris Street.

In front of you is a small building with a second layer, from top to bottom, with a flat roof and a small balcony. It is built with brown and red bricks. There are many potted plants on the protruding windowsill on the second floor. The door on the first floor is made of redwood, with a house number hanging on it. There are other houses on the left and right sides. The structure is similar. This seems to be a living area.

Entering the door, the home is clean and tidy, umbrella stand, shoe cabinet, corridor, this is the first part, the end of the corridor is the kitchen, the living room is on the right, and the stairs are on the left.

“Grant, I don’t want to quarrel with you again, this is your living expenses this month, a total of 10 shillings, an increase of 1 shilling over the past, this is the last time I will give you living expenses, you have It’s almost half a year after graduating from college, and then you have to find a job by yourself, I remember you studied religious studies? You can try to interview for church paperwork, or you can… Anyway, you have to start taking responsibility for yourself.”

The money bag was handed over, and Donald subconsciously took it. This action was a little smooth, and the formulaic tone made him feel a little cold, as if it was a boss paying workers monthly wages.

The girl looked towards her eyes with undisguised alienation and disgust, Donald felt it.

Actually, he also despised himself fiercely in the bottom of his heart after knowing that his predecessor was still asking for money from a girl of the same age after six months of graduation.

The bedroom should be upstairs. When the girl walked to the living room, Donald did not follow him, but walked up the stairs alone. He needed to organize his thoughts and figure out the current situation and his own situation.

It’s a little out of place to speak to anyone before this.

The rigid relationship between husband and wife is a good buffer at this time.

However, halfway down the stairs, Donald’s eyes inadvertently caught sight of the living room sofa. The girl, he suddenly realized a problem that he had ignored before.

In memory, Donald’s parents died in a grocery store fire four years ago. He and the girl should have been married in recent years.

According to common sense, after marriage, she is Donald’s family, strictly speaking, the only family at present. Shouldn’t it be more cherished if relatives are lost and found?

Even if there are irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides, even if it is hatred, this is a way to deepen the impression, isn’t it?

Why is the impression so vague? Even when I saw her, there were only words and emotions that were so lacking that they could be described as barren.

apart from this , there are no memories that can be recalled.

Suddenly tightening his palms and grasping the armrest, Donald vaguely sensed something was wrong, but he couldn’t grasp the fleeting inspiration.

Gently rubbed his temples, continued to lift his feet, and finally reached the second floor.

It’s another corridor with three rooms in total. Donald pursed his lips and took out the keychain in his pocket. There were three keys on it, one was the door, and he saw exactly the same in his wife’s hands. , then one of the remaining two keys should be the bedroom.

He was going to try to open the door, but he didn’t have to bother because he just walked to the first door and saw the number hanging on it.

Donald ·Grant

Take a step back and look towards the room next to him. Sure enough, there is also a house number on it.

Infinita ·Alfred

That was the girl’s name, Donald thought to himself.

They are living apart and it’s possible that they never lived together.

Brush Lala~

Turn the wheel, the water sprayed from the metal shower head poured on the body, Donald of the Demon Descension Ceremony has not taken a bath for a while, clean The feeling of comfort made him feel better.

Just in the shower.

There is a mechanical water meter in the upper left corner of the bathroom, dark brown material, and some gears are exposed inside the dial. Watching the numbers on it beat, Donald shut off the water in time and stood in front of the mirror , look inside yourself.

Lighter skin, pale-gold hair in the middle part and ears, different from his wife’s emerald green eyes, high nose bridge and thin lips, the overall appearance of facial features is deep and quite Stereoscopic.

If the stubble on the chin is removed, in the words of the previous life, it is entirely possible for him to rely on his face to eat.

“This is who I am now…”

Gazing at himself in the mirror, Donald adapts to the current state, but the trance that appeared in the alley before is not. Attacked again at this time.

I closed my eyes and opened my eyes, my skin in the mirror was completely pale in an instant, the whites of my eyes turned black, and my emerald green eyes were gradually dyed with red light…

“no!”

Growling and punching the mirror, there was someone downstairs, so he deliberately lowered his voice and restrained his strength.

The next second, the self in the mirror returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

Palms, arms, necks, chests, backs, thighs and even buttocks, Donald turned around in front of the mirror naked after taking a bath. If there were outsiders, the title of pervert would probably be taken seriously.

He has watched a lot of movies in his last life. Regardless of whether they are true or false, there will be more or less marks on the people who are parasitized by demons or who sign contracts. He wants to confirm his status.

The result is that there is no change, the body is still his body, and the scene just now seems to be just his hallucination.

Shaving off the stubble and putting on clean clothes, the bedroom has few things, a single bed against the wall, plaid bedding and white pillows neatly stacked on top.

A writing desk with stationery by the window, a wooden chair with a cushion stuffed with cotton.

A wooden bookcase filled with various religious books, apart from this is a chaise longue and a bedside table with a radio on it.

After a brief tour and exploration of some corners, Donald begins to sort out the situation.

Note, dark red beads, this is something that came out of the sewer.

The books from several bookcases are related to religion, social environment, especially the existence of demons.

And the last key, a diary found in the bottom drawer of the bedside table, with a few pages of text.
