Gu Huaiwei wanted to make her face paler.
But she didn't have time for death makeup.
The wound on the arm was healed by a female doctor.
Gu Huaiwei had just woken up, her face flushed. In order to hide her energetic appearance, she curled up in the quilt, covered her eyes, and brewed tears.
"That's not a nightmare, it's the future..."
Her fingers tightened, gripping the corner of the quilt.
"I'm sorry... I was too conceited..." Gu Huaiwei's voice was choked with sobs, and her breathing was rapid, as if she was really scared. "I thought that after going through so much, I was strong enough to fight against you..."
The little boy said bluntly, "You should have realized this a long time ago."
Gu Huaiwei lowered her voice, trying to keep it trembling: "I now understand that these abilities are not gifts, but disasters!"
The little boy looked at her coldly: "Before, you said you would never let go, but now you have come to your senses. Humans are really fickle creatures."
"Take it away! Take it away!" Gu Huaiwei spoke faster and faster, and she hit the little boy with a pillow. "I want to become a normal person again! As long as I become a normal person, you will let me go, right?!"
The little boy caught the pillow with one hand, and his eyes changed subtly.
"You're right." He walked to the bedside, held down Gu Huaiwei's waving hands, sat down, and coaxed her with a rare gentle tone, "Don't be afraid, I will help you."
"Really? How can you help me?"
"I will take away the source of your pain."
From the female doctor, Gu Huaiwei learned that the little boy's name was Lili.
They are close.
What Lili received before was an empty theme park card.
He originally hated Gu Huaiwei and did not believe in the prophecy.
After Gu Huaiwei came back, he never showed up because of other people's concerns about the manager's position.
The female doctor had to stop him.
Gu Huaiwei is very cunning, and Lili feels that she has gone too far and will not gain any benefits, so she chooses to stop temporarily.
He must be feeling aggrieved.
The incident Gu Huaiwei had caused before was just to make him think that she had changed her mind out of fear and was willing to hand over her power.
He now has his chance.
Gu Huaiwei nodded obediently: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Lili narrowed her eyes slightly, and a smile that was almost joyful appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Listen carefully, I don't believe that stupid prophecy.
But if you give me your power and obey my will, I will be able to get you out of paradise alive."
"But...but...I'm scared." Gu Huaiwei stammered, pretending to be timid. "Will the other managers be unhappy?"
Lili looked down at him with contempt, as if he was looking at an idiot: "Just don't let them find out."
He had never been quite convinced by the Ferris wheel.
Although they call each other family, they are equal and are sealed in paradise together. No one is subordinate to anyone else.
Because the Ferris wheel is ranked first, it always acts like an elder.
The rest of the people just had to listen to his arrangements, which was really annoying.
And Gu Huaiwei is the breakthrough point to break this balance.
"I won't lie. If...if I'm discovered, I'll be dead! Ahhh! I don't want to die!"
She was lying in bed in a cricket pupa.
"Shh, be quiet, your shrill voice is giving me a headache..." Lili lowered her head and looked at Gu Huaiwei's miserable appearance with disgust, "You won't die until the bet is fulfilled."
"But I heard that if I want to join you, I have to die first. How scary."
Lili explained unhappily, "That's because the power in you doesn't belong to you. In your current state, you simply can't control this power well."
"According to the prophecy, you must abandon this fragile body, sacrifice yourself, and join us."
"We will remove the human part of you, completely break you down, and reshape you... As long as the six of us work together, even if you don't cooperate, we can remove your abilities from your body."
Gu Huaiwei covered her head with the quilt and wrapped it tightly: "I don't want this."
Lili raised the corner of her mouth and threatened her: "That will be a very painful process. You don't want to go to this extent for that illusory bullshit prophecy, do you?"
Gu Huaiwei didn't speak immediately.
Lili's words just now revealed a lot of key information.
After observing for a period of time, Gu Huaiwei also discovered the conflicts among the managers.
The current paradise is superficially a parliamentary system, and everyone seems equal.
But once the gates of paradise are completely opened, this fragile balance will be broken.
They are no longer willing to maintain the co-governance model.
After leaving paradise, they will fight for their own territory.
Gu Huaiwei is a container that carries power. Whoever obtains this power has the potential to become the master of the outside world.
All the managers who approached Gu Huaiwei privately and wanted to obtain her power wanted to be dictators after leaving the paradise.
Gu Huaiwei bit her lower lip, digging her nails into her palms. "Then we have to leave the castle first, otherwise if we are discovered by other administrators, they will definitely stop us."
"Okay." Lili put Gu Huaiwei's outstretched hand back into the quilt and gave her an appreciative look. "Although you're crazy, you're not stupid. You've thought it through very carefully."
"Then we..."
"Tomorrow evening, go to the rose flower and wait for me."
"good."
Because of Gu Huaiwei's previous tricks, Li Li threatened: "Don't even think about running away. You can't escape as long as I'm here."
"I won't." The exit was in the castle, so Gu Huaiwei certainly wouldn't run away.
The next evening, scorching clouds of fire burned in the sky, and the red sunset shone on the roses, making the colors of the flowers appear even more intense.
Wherever the wind blows, the branches of flowers tremble slightly.
Gu Huaiwei's mood was unusually calm.
"Let's go." Lili was wearing a black cloak. He threw one to Gu Huaiwei, "Put it on and follow me closely."
Gu Huaiwei followed Lili down from the back mountain of the castle. She was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a small path down the mountain. The entrance was hidden and there were no monsters living nearby. It was definitely a good route for escape.
"Is the place you're taking me to safe? Will we be discovered?"
"I'll take you to my secret base." Lili still had some childish habits. "I'm the only one who knows where it is, and no one else will find out."
"Am I the first person you brought there?"
"Hmph, you got it for free."
Gu Huaiwei chatted with Lili along the way to divert his attention, then pretended to be curious, touching things here and there, and secretly marked the road with the juice of red roses to prevent herself from losing her way back.
Thick fog gradually rose between the mountains and forests.
They came to the hunter's cabin, the walls of which were covered with animal specimens. Li Li first took some firewood and lit the fireplace in the cabin to dispel the coldness in the house.
Gu Huaiwei observed the animal specimens.
Among them were sheep fur, peacock feathers, wolf fangs... Gu Huaiwei seemed to have seen them all.
