"elder sister……?"
“Woo…”
Xiaohuan opened her eyes and saw a familiar girl smiling in front of her. She had big eyes, the same pink hair as hers, and a chubby face. She looked very cute. Xiaohuan was no stranger to this face.
"worry?"
"Well, good morning, sister. Hurry up and get up. Mom has already prepared breakfast. If you don't get up, you will be scolded by mom."
"Okay, I'll get up now..."
"Then I will braid your sister's hair."
After washing up, Xiaohuan sat in front of the mirror and looked at her sister braiding her hair. Although she was not very skilled yet, it was already very satisfying for Xiaohuan. After all, You had finally left the hospital, and now, their family could finally live together happily. For Xiaohuan, this was more important than anything else.
"By the way, sister, you haven't forgotten what we are going to do today, right?"
"Of course, let's go together!"
After breakfast, the two sisters smiled, held hands, said "I'm leaving" to their parents, and left the house. They came to the bustling commercial street, where they soon saw two familiar voices.
"Sister, worry!"
"Good morning, sister."
Denghua, who greeted people with great energy, and Yinmeng, who looked calm all the time with her glasses, were also friends of You. They lived in the same ward with You and were also seriously ill, but fortunately, their illnesses had been cured.
...Hmm? How did you cure it?
"Sister, hurry up, the movie is about to start."
A question flashed through Xiaohuan's mind, and then You grabbed her hand and ran into the cinema.
Very happy.
The four of them walked happily on the street and enjoyed a wonderful life. For You and the others, this was something they had never thought of before. With their physical condition, they could not leave the hospital at all, so they could only stay in the ward and listen to Xiaohuan's description of the outside world. At that time, they had agreed to go out and play together after they recovered from their illness.
And now, their dream has finally come true.
"That's the shopping mall over there, it's so big..."
"I heard there are performances in the mall!"
Xiaohuan smiled as she watched the three of them talking and laughing. No one knew better than her how much the three children wanted to go out. They had been living in the ward, and the only world they saw through the window was the world. But for these children, such a life was obviously not enough to satisfy them.
So they found a map and asked Xiaohuan to take photos and stick them on the map. Through the photos, maps and Xiaohuan's stories, they imagined the outside world.
But that alone is not enough...
"Speaking of which, sis, do you remember the one we made together?"
"Of course, I remember it very clearly."
Looking at her sister's smiling face, Xiaohuan nodded.
"At that time I..."
At this point, Xiao Huan was stunned for a moment. However, at the same time, Deng Hua and Yin Meng's voices suddenly rang out.
"Sister, this way!"
"Sister, You, hurry up, or the lantern will eat you up."
"How rude, do I look like that kind of person?"
"Okay, okay, I'll come now."
Hearing the two people's voices, Xiaohuan gave a bitter smile and then walked forward again.
Behind her, a cherry blossom petal slowly fell.
Life is so happy and joyful, but for Xiaohuan, it is not without regrets.
“Haaaah…haaah…”
Curled up in the quilt, Xiaohuan couldn't stop breathing. Her hands rubbed and stimulated vigorously, but the emptiness was not satisfied at all.
She could hear her sister's breathing behind her. Xiaohuan shouldn't have done this, but she had no choice - every night, she would feel her body getting hot, as if she was craving for something... or rather, craving for someone.
Who is that person?
Xiao Huan couldn't remember her name, she only remembered that she was a cute girl with bright red twin ponytails, about the same age as her sister. Sometimes, she would think of her in her dreams, but Xiao Huan couldn't remember what she looked like at all. You and Deng Hua also had no idea that this girl existed.
“Wow… yeah…!”
The intense stimulation spread throughout her body like an electric current. Xiaohuan bit the quilt tightly, trying to suppress her voice, and then she slowly collapsed. She opened her eyes and saw a girl with a red ponytail and bright red eyes looking up from her arms, looking at her with a charming look.
"Xiao Huan is really H, this alone is not enough, right...?"
"Wait, no, Xiaohong..."
Subconsciously whispering to herself, Xiaohuan instinctively prepared herself for the impact, but at this moment she realized that the girl in front of her had disappeared without a trace.
Only endless emptiness remains...
"Xiaohong..."
Muttering to herself, Xiaohuan suddenly widened her eyes. At this moment, she seemed to remember something.
Red ponytail...magical girl, sister...
"worry?"
Xiaohuan turned her head and looked at her sister who was sleeping soundly in the other bed opposite her. However, her sister just closed her eyes quietly and fell into a deep sleep.
"You...did you hear that?"
Xiaohuan stood up from the bed, walked to You's side and stretched out her hand.
"I've been looking for you... I've been looking for you. Where on earth have you been? You?"
As Xiaohuan finished speaking, the next moment, the whole world collapsed.
“——!”
Xiaohuan suddenly opened her eyes and sat up, and the girl with red ponytail in front of her waved at her.
"Hey, you're back."
"I remember now! Xiao Hong! I remember everything!"
Xiaohuan grabbed the red ponytail and spoke quickly.
"About the worries, about the rumors, about everything... I remember everything!"
"I know, but I'm sorry, I have to pay attention to Felicia now. Please wait for a moment."
Patting Xiaohuan's shoulder, Red Ponytail came to Felicia again. At this time, Xiaohuan discovered that there was something wrong with Felicia's expression. Although she was asleep, her face was hideous, distorted, and full of pain and anger.
“What… is going on?”
"What else could it be? That bastard QB! He tampered with Felicia's wishes, and now Felicia doesn't want to accept reality!"
"Why……?"
"You should have heard Felicia say that her parents were killed by a witch."
"Yeah...I have heard of it."
Xiaohuan nodded, while Red Ponytail was furious.
"That's totally made up. The truth is that Felicia was naughty and started a fire in the kitchen, which caused an accident. Her parents fell into the fire to save her. At that time, QB appeared, and Felicia made a wish to it, "I hope that none of this has ever happened." So QB erased this fact from Felicia's memory and implanted a false memory that 'her parents were killed by a witch.' So for Felicia, it really never happened... I OO you f*cking QB, you bastard, this is a violation of the contract!!"
Red Ponytail was almost mad at this moment, she didn't expect QB to be so shameless. Felicia's meaning was clearly that 'I was naughty and caused a fire in the kitchen, which led to the death of my parents', which never happened. But you actually made Felicia forget that it was you who did it and put the blame on the witch... Damn, if QB hadn't been exterminated, Red Ponytail really wanted to pull it out and whip its corpse a thousand eight hundred times.
Is there anyone so shameless?!
It’s not like you can’t go back in time, what the hell is this!
No wonder QB likes to choose these little girls to sign contracts. After all, they are young, have limited ability to express themselves, and are easily deceived, so you really deceive them - this is simply a deliberate distortion of wishes!
Now the result is good. The re-contract will make the recaller remember the original wish, so the false memory implanted by QB is eliminated. Now Felicia is about to have a mental breakdown after realizing that her parents were not killed by the witch, but died because of herself.
Felicia was unwilling to accept this fact, and her wish was contrary to this fact, causing the whole dream to be in intense shock. After all, making a wish requires you to have a clear understanding of the matter before you can make a clear wish. For example, Xiaohuan clearly knew that her sister was seriously ill, so she hoped to make a wish to cure her sister's illness.
However, Felicia's wish conflicts with reality. Felicia is unwilling to accept the fact that "it was her own mischief that led to the murder of her parents and it had nothing to do with the witch". As a result, she is stuck at this step and cannot proceed to the next step of wish backtracking. It is like the system software is stuck and is currently stuck at the interface of [Task not responding, please wait or close directly].
So Red Ponytail now has two choices, either wait for Felicia to respond, or just force it to shut down - that is, die. If possible, Red Ponytail certainly doesn't want to choose the latter, but... who knows what the situation is?
"Xiao Huan, I'm leaving it to you."
With a helpless sigh, Red Ponytail looked at Xiaohuan.
"Felicia has always treated you as her mother. Now only you can pull Felicia back from her dream. I need to stabilize her mind here. You have to enter her dream to wake her up... Can you do it?"
"I see!"
After listening to Red Ponytail's explanation, Xiaohuan also nodded vigorously.
"I'll wake Felicia!"
