Farewell and New Clues: The Truth of the Twin Guardians
Amid the alarm of the interstellar flagship, Xiaodou lay on Bai Shenyuan's shoulder, watching him switch between three personalities to command the battle - Bai Yan's personality was responsible for delaying the pirates with sweet words, Lin Shen's personality was responsible for cracking the enemy's system, and Ling Yuan's personality was responsible for accurately shooting strawberry shells.
"Baby, your tail brushed my chin~" (Bai Yan's personality, with red ears)
"There's a hole under the third wafer deck on the port side. Nibble there!" (Lin Shen's character, pushing up his glasses)
"Hold on tight, I'm going to speed up." (Ling Yuan's personality, cold face but holding Xiaodou's paw tightly)
Xiaodou was so dizzy that he simply opened his mouth and bit into the core of the flagship's strawberry. The moment he took a bite of the fruit, a wedding march began to play throughout the spacecraft, candy rained down from the ceiling, and the mechanical hamster "Little Sweet Bean" appeared, pushing a ring box. Inside the box was a ring inlaid with a fragment of an interstellar map. Next to it was a note: "After you eat this strawberry, marry me~"
"Bai Yan!" Ling Yuan's personality roared, "Who told you to hide the proposal program in the core?!"
"Shh..." Bai Yan's personality chuckled, "Look at Xiaodou's expression."
Xiaodou looked up with a strawberry seed in his mouth, his eyes reflecting the candy stars in the sky. His tail wrapped around Bai Shenyuan's wrist: "The map fragment in the ring..."
"This is your betrothal gift." Bai Shenyuan switched back to Lin Shen's personality and gently wiped the juice from the corner of his mouth. "Gather all the fragments and you can piece together the concept of the rat tribe's way home."
A holographic screen suddenly popped up on the robotic cat, revealing the interstellar map had been completed. The AI matchmaker determined the "blind date mission was overfulfilled," and his relationship value skyrocketed. Xiaodou's treasure-hunting mouse form began to fade, and he was about to depart for the next world.
"Wait!" Bai Shenyuan grabbed his claws, and the three personalities spoke at the same time, "There's still one thing we haven't done."
The next second, Xiaodou felt himself being wrapped in embraces of three different temperatures - Bai Yan's warmth, Lin Shen's warmth, and Ling Yuan's burning heat, which finally converged into a gentle kiss and landed on the Tianyan pattern between his eyebrows.
"This is the guardian's oath." Bai Shenyuan whispered, and the ring automatically slipped onto Xiaodou's paw. "No matter which world you travel to, this kiss will lead you to me."
Xiaodou's face turned as red as strawberry jam, but at this moment, the mechanical cat sent an urgent coordinate - a time and space rift appeared in the "Linshen Bakery" in the modern campus chapter, and it was suspected that the natural enemies of the concept rat tribe had invaded.
Before the time-space jump, Xiaodou touched Bai Shenyuan's ring with the treasure-hunting radar, and the final scene flashed:
- Scene from three thousand years ago: Xiaodou (the concept rat king) handed the ring to the guardian, and the ring broke into three pieces, falling to the demon world, the modern world, and the interstellar space respectively.
- Present-day scene: In the bakery basement, Lin Shen is praying in front of a totem mural. The teardrop mole at the corner of the conceptual rat's eye on the mural completely matches Xiaodou's.
"It turns out that I made the ring myself!" Xiaodou exclaimed.
Bai Shenyuan chuckled and switched back to Ling Yuan's personality: "So you are destined to be trapped by me - from the past to the future."
The moment the light engulfed Xiaodou, he heard three overlapping voices from Bai Shenyuan saying, "Next stop, see you at Modern Campus. This time, I'll be your deskmate. Let's see how you chew chalk in class~"
When he opened his eyes again, Xiaodou was lying on the desk in the high school classroom, holding half a chocolate gold coin brought from the interstellar space in his claws. On the gold coin were condensed three phantoms of Bai Shenyuan: Bai Yan waving fox fire to bake osmanthus cake, Lin Shen was making a mechanical mouse in the laboratory, and Ling Yuan was assembling a candy battleship on the interstellar battlefield.
"Classmate, class is about to start."
A familiar voice came from beside him. Xiaodou looked up and saw Bai Shenyuan in school uniform, covering his face with a textbook. The tips of his ears were as red as the morning glow. There was a note tucked into the textbook: "Your tail brushed against my homework book. Let's go to the bakery after school to steal osmanthus cake together?"
Outside the classroom window, the trail of falling cherry blossoms unexpectedly formed the shape of the demonic world's swallowing sky pattern. Xiaodou shook the ring in his paw and found a new line of small words on the inside: "In the deep forest, deer are seen, and mice are expected to come."
