Chapter 31 Devil's Eye
"My mother..."
The eyes in the darkness stood at the other end of the door, and she could see clearly through the hole revealed by the broken window paper.
"Ri Ei, don't worry, it can't get in."
"My mother...I'm scared..."
She held the cross on her chest tightly, as if this could bring herself strong confidence.
"Almighty God, please give me faith to disperse the 'demon'..."
...
"My mother, I heard that you and my father went to visit the Yasuno Shrine yesterday with several members of Congress?"
"Yes."
"Why don't you tell me? I only found out after reading the news!"
"You are still young, so there are some things that I don't want you to know."
"But I heard that this incident has caused many dissatisfactions from neighboring countries and may also cause diplomatic disputes. After all, the shrines worship Class A war criminals identified by the International Court of Justice after World War II!"
"It is because you know your personality that you don't tell you. The adult world is very complicated. If a family wants to develop, it must rely on the power of these politicians. In the future, the family will be inherited by your brother, so you don't have to think too much."
...
"My mother... Chongyi... Where is he?"
"He is your friend, why ask me?"
"I know...you took him away! Why?"
"You should be more cautious when making friends. He openly collected information about the Japanese army in China during World War II, and even compiled the content of the false Nanjing incident with the intention of publicizing it."
"My mother, he just wants to publish the historical truth! The history books we are studying now are not real history at all!"
"He was brainwashed by the Chinese. The so-called Nanjing Massacre was just a lie made up by the Chinese. Riei, you are from my Fukuzawa family, so you should consider the people of our family..."
...
"I saw that eye again...just like when I was a kid..."
"Ri Ei, the 'demon' cannot hurt us..."
"But I remembered that what I saw in that eye was my reflection..."
"Ri Ei! What crazy words are you talking about! You will marry the son of Fujiki Parliament in a few months! The Parliamentarian is likely to become the next Prime Minister. As long as we marry, the future of the family will be unlimited!"
"Aren't we the family of exorcists? But I feel..."
"Li Huiyi!"
"When we die, we will become demons..."
...
Rie Fukasawa leaned against the wall with a wrinkled photo. Blood was everywhere on her body.
At this time, she was staying in a room in the hotel.
"I suddenly remembered when I was a child..." She lowered the photo slightly and looked at the ceiling with empty eyes, "I had seen the 'demon' when I was very young..."
"Your Fukazawa family is an exorcist family, so it's not surprising that you will encounter a 'demon'." Yaslan was debugging the compass in his hand to ensure that the barrier was solid.
She kept looking at the door. The cloaked men were now outside the door, but they were blocked by the barrier and could not enter.
"'Demon'... in Japan, it should be called a monster? For example, Zakiki Boy, Feitou Man, Shuitun Boy?"
"Monsters and 'demons' are different, Ticlow."
"Is that a photo of you and your family?" Yaslan walked slowly and noticed the photo. The room was pitch black, and only the compass released a little light source, so the content of the photo could not be seen clearly.
"yes……"
"them……"
"Everyone should be in hell... because of this sudden end of the world. Why did the end come and why it suddenly swept the world? No one knows... But none of the people who should go to hell can escape..."
Yaslan opened the hotel's wardrobe.
"Fortunately, there are women's clothes." He then took out the clothes, threw them on the bed, and said, "You go and change your clothes first. You are covered in blood, so you are very uncomfortable, right?"
"What?"
"Don't worry, I won't do what you worry about. If I do what I shouldn't do now, it will only increase the sins in the Hell scroll, and maybe I will go to a deeper hell after death."
"No...I believe you..."
"I don't know how long we have to be trapped, but we have to be prepared for a long time and wait for Glendinje and the others to rescue him."
Riei looked at the clothes placed on the bed, her cheeks blushed slightly, then picked up a few pieces of clothes and hugged them in front of her chest.
She suddenly looked at Yaslan in silence.
After a long time, just as Yaslan was about to speak, she spoke.
"I had a classmate and friend in college, named Takaichi Aoki. Although I received the education of becoming an exorcist, I usually live a school life like ordinary people. Out of my interest in history, I applied to the History Department, but as I studied, Takaichi told me that he felt more and more that there were too many false and untrue content in our country's history textbooks. You are a Chinese, so you should have some understanding of this, right?"
"Unforgettable. Japan attempted to erase the crimes they committed in the past war, but unfortunately history could not be forgotten. However... at this time, it seems meaningless to say this."
"Tongichi wanted to study the real history. For this reason, he traveled thousands of miles to China and carefully studied the history of the Japanese invasion of China during World War II. Especially... the bloody history of the Nanjing Massacre that shocked the world during the Tokyo Trial that was buried by our government. To be honest, I have read the papers he wrote, and the contents of these materials are detailed and conclusive. Our ancestors actually committed such a crime that was not even as good as beasts in foreign lands. If the legendary 19th Hell really exists, their names should be recorded in the 19th Hell of the Hell of Revelation!
"God is just. Most of the Japanese soldiers who participated in the Holocaust were buried in the Pacific battlefield. Their souls must be tortured in hell."
"However, I decided to write the paper with him, and decided to help him collect historical materials, and even decided to visit the soldiers who participated in the war and survived to this day. At this time... he disappeared. I soon found out that this was the work of the family, and they were worried that my actions would anger the right-wing politicians they had tried to please. At that time, even our country's prime ministers visited the Yasuko Shrine repeatedly, and they naturally chose to change their minds. And I could not save him in the end... Now, I didn't expect the family's actions. I naively underestimated everything, and I really thought that the pursuit of true justice could be blessed by God... My stupidity killed Tsuichi, and I was thinking... This may be the crime I recorded in the Hell volume of Revelation."
Yaslan's face showed a little shock. After all,... the Chinese people's perception of the Japanese devils has always been bad, but they rarely heard of them. There are Japanese people like Takaichi Aoki who devoted themselves to the truth of history.
It turns out that there are only inferior individuals and no inferior nations.
(About the question, Your Highness the Princess... Do you agree with the real history of Fukasawa Riei and Takaichi Aoki? Do you think the Nanjing Massacre is indeed true?)
(Manipulation and whitewashing history has been around since ancient times. I am not foolish enough to be deceived by the clumsy lies of those right-wing politicians.)
"That's not your sin, Miss Fukuzawa." Yaslan suddenly said something, "Compared with me, your behavior is not a crime at all."
This line is not found in the newly revised script.
Riei looked at Yaslan in a little surprised, then lowered her head, stammered and said "Ariado" (thank you), walked into the bathroom, and closed the door.
After changing his blood-stained clothes and looking at the broken mirror in the bathroom through the faint light, Riei felt a little dazed for a moment.
When I was young...
It's not Riei's childhood, but An/Bei Shentong's childhood...
The part in the mirror that was cut makes Riei (Dark Eye) feel that her face seems to be divided into two halves.
(The script says: Riei looked at the mirror at this time. She seemed to see the demon on the other end of the door she saw when she was young...)
At her feet, the bloody clothes she changed into were thrown by her bathtub.
