The doctor jotted it down on the paper.
TuTu stared absentmindedly at the milk in his hand.
The doctor chuckled and softened his voice: "Don't worry, let's ask some very routine questions. If you don't want to answer, children also have the extra right to be lenient; you can refuse to answer any of them."
Tu Tu silently lowered his head, his fingers sliding rhythmically along the rim of the milk on the outside of the cup.
“Go ahead and ask,” TuTu said.
“Okay,” the doctor said, tapping the pen tip on a blank space on the page, “please let me first learn about your arrival.”
TuTu took a sip of hot milk and began to tell the story:
"I am the last person to appear among all the people I know. In my mind, when I first joined this group, Chang Le, Ye Buqi, Wei An, the madman, and the young lady were all in front of me."
"That was more than half a year ago, just before this body was about to wake up from its coma, when I appeared."
"At that time, in that room, which was the central control room, Chang Le only left a few words before falling asleep leaning against Ye Buqi. Ye Buqi told me that Chang Le needed my assistance to complete his plan."
"The plan is what Chang Le left behind—"
Death comes at a price, and I cannot die so easily again;
I need to make the debtor and myself pay the price for his death;
After the project is completed, let's discuss our matters.
The doctor wrote down these three sentences and drew a line connecting them to TuTu's portrait.
"This is easy to understand. Lele chose to die, but it triggered Shen Fuguang's passive protection. In the end, Shen Fuguang died, while Changle barely survived because of his Reverse Scale's automatic protection. Changle will live on with his share of the life. That's the first sentence."
“Chang Le can’t let go of Shen Fuguang’s death. She wants to make amends to those she owes, including herself. Therefore, she needs a plan to help her achieve this goal. That’s the second sentence.”
“After she achieves her goal, she can consider relinquishing some or even all of her control and disposal over her body. This is why Ye Buqi, Wei An, and the Madman also agreed.”
The doctor asked at the opportune moment, "Do you agree as well?"
TuTu nodded slowly:
Yes, I agree.
Because I was born for this purpose, if I don't participate and play my part, I... will disappear.
I am a system, a system created by the 'Lord'. Besides my pre-programmed memories and abilities, my nature is lively and active. I am curious about this world, and I hope to understand and explore this wondrous world through Chang Le's perspective.
In exchange, I would achieve her goal and make her happy before she even remembered... Yes, that was my original plan, but reality was far crueler than I imagined.
TuTu's hands trembled as he placed the milk on the table, lowered his head, and whispered:
"The plan that was discussed was a continuation of Chang Le and the Madman's original revenge, but this time the revenge was restrained and replaced, and the method was changed from straightforward destruction to a softened emotional bond."
My role is that of the 'system,' the guide, and the 'gatekeeper.'
"Until Chang Le gets closer to her target or can't stop her from remembering everything, my job is to guide her behavior, perfect the 'transmigration novel's beloved character's script, conceal the existence of other people, and comfort and accompany her as a pet."
"When performing these duties, my memories are also affected by Chang Le's memories."
"After confirming my role, I happily told them that I would make Chang Le as happy as possible, not let her feel sad or lonely, and make her the princess in my world. But I was too naive."
"Just like Wei An mocked me, saying I was a fool who fantasized, Ye Buqi also gave me a label, like her 'control,' Wei An's 'revenge,' I am—'fairy tale.'"
"Fairy tales mean sweet and fake things wrapped in tragedy."
"This is also my first time interacting with people, with the world, and with Chang Le. I tried my best to infect Lele with my own sunshine and happiness. I like playing with Lele, but..."
"I...I messed up, I didn't do a good job."
TuTu suddenly looked up: (╥╯^╰╥)
Doctor: "Uh..."
Before I could think of what to say, TuTu suddenly transformed into his child form. The little boy sat on the sofa and suddenly burst into tears.
Little Tutu: ??﹏??
The doctors were stunned.
Little Tutu's emotions, like a roaring spring stirred by the sound, poured out uncontrollably:
"Waaaaah... I didn't mean to. I didn't expect it to be such a painful thing... I can't do anything. I can't even hide my identity. I can't comfort Lele... I don't have any adult abilities at all... I'm scared... Waaaaah... I need to find Lele..."
Little TuTu: 。 ゜゜(′O`) ゜゜.
The child was crying so hard he could barely breathe; it was heartbreaking to see.
The doctor found it both funny and pitying, and handed him a few tissues.
Little Tutu didn't care whether it was snot, cold sweat, or tears; it wiped itself clean for a while, and then slowly calmed down on its own.
Little Tutu's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her vision was squeezed out by her swollen eyelids.
Little Tutu belatedly realized his mistake and blushed with embarrassment, so he simply "poofed" and turned into a big rabbit doll.
The doll leaned crookedly against the sofa, looking cute with a touch of silly charm, but at least it didn't look like the disheveled state it had just been in when it was wailing.
Little Tutu, who can now be called Rabbit, speaks with a nasal tone as if nothing had happened:
"That's all I know."
The doctor looked at him with unusual tenderness and asked, "So, you're unhappy because you feel that Lele isn't doing well because you haven't taken good care of her? Is Changle asleep again?"
The rabbit's two big ears drooped down.
The doctor then asked, "It sounds like your mission is over. Will you disappear?"
Rabbit's two ears stood up straight, and she shook her head vigorously: "No! Lele said I have to stay with her!"
The doctor chuckled softly, "Well, little bunny, I think you can be a little happier now. Because Lele is already happy just to see you here."
"As for the minor shortcomings of the 'system,' since this is your first time and you have no experience, I don't think anyone will blame you."
The rabbit's eyes sparkled: "Thank you, doctor!"
"Alright, little one, go back and sleep with Chang Le. She'll be panicked if she wakes up and doesn't see you."
Rabbit immediately jumped off the sofa, transformed into its adult form, bowed to the doctor, grabbed the mess it had made on the table, and ran towards the door.
Running to the door, TuTu turned back and said, "Um... doctor."
"What's wrong? Please tell me."
"Would you like to see Wei'an? Ye Buqi said he's not suited to go out, but after learning you're here, Wei'an really wants to talk to you."
