Chapter 86 Interlude (Part 3) The tree is about to wither, and the Creator is...
[Checking task completion——]
[Ding Dong—Testing Completed!]
[You have completed the quest: express your wish to accompany her until death. Salvation completed!]
[You have completed the side quest target: Yang Jin's wish to know the truth. The salvation is complete!]
[Extra Mission Reward: Nut Doll x1!]
[Energy acquisition rate: 0.7 times!]
[Evaluation: You completed the task quite well! Keep it up and don't slack off!]
"Host, why are you in such a hurry to leave this time?" After the task settlement was presented, the system approached He Yuezhe and asked.
"According to the platform's statistics, after completing the mission in the second world, employees generally..."
"What will happen?"
"Oops, I let it slip. Host, just pretend you didn't hear it, right? Otherwise, I'll be punished by the platform too."
"The platform, like you, can also directly see my 'memories', right?"
He Yuezhe held Qu Biexing and ran all the way.
Until the sun-drenched, flower-filled avenue before me was enveloped by a burst of white light.
In the white light, as she passed through the mission completion, the memories she had created in this world kept emerging beside her.
"Host, this is a secret! Just keep it to yourself. There's no need to ask me, right?" The system-turned kitten flew in the air, speaking haltingly.
Qu Biexing in He Yuezhe's arms had turned into an ordinary nut doll that couldn't speak or move at some point.
It leaned quietly, looking straight ahead.
"What kind of place is the platform?" He Yuezhe murmured in a low voice.
The white ridges and wrinkles under my feet look like a huge curtain.
And just like that, she was walking on top of a play that was being performed.
"Host," the system said, "you know almost everything you can."
"I can't know that, and I hope you won't ask me about it again."
"Because everything about this 'platform', even if I knew it, even if I told it, no one would hear it."
“Like this—‘The tree is dying,’ ‘and the Creator is losing himself.’”
The system said again.
"Host, all you heard was 'My Aquarius is delicious,' and 'Maizi is also very good at cleaning teeth.'" Such strange words, right?"
"……Um."
"Then, who was that person who was very close to you before?" He Yuezhe asked.
"Yes, yes... She's not a threat to you anyway, so there's no need to pay attention to her!"
"What is her relationship with the platform?"
“‘Hire’—Ahhhhhhh, host, just pretend you didn’t hear that!!!”
The system rushed over and covered He Yuezhe's mouth with its furry paws.
"Oh right, to make up for my 'negligence' in these two worlds!"
"Host, every world you enter next will have its original world line to provide you with information, so your actions will be much more convenient!!!"
"Hmph, I won't report you, what are you afraid of?" He Yuezhe curled the corners of his mouth and touched the system's head.
"That's good!" The system breathed a sigh of relief. "Host, we'll be at the garden soon. Please be careful with your words and actions!"
"So, what we say here will only be known to the two of us?"
"Host!!!! I've already told you to just figure it out yourself, don't ask me anymore!!!"
"Okay, okay, I get it."
"Strange, why hasn't this mission world been destroyed yet...?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Wha, nothing, host, nothing!!"
^
"Good evening! Master, I'm back!"
As soon as the two were teleported to the garden, the system couldn't wait to rush to the side of the tassel tree and started rolling around.
【Good evening. 】
[Welcome back, both of you.]
It was a familiar girl's voice.
However, He Yuezhe felt that the voice seemed to become more mechanical.
"Master, how is the energy this time? I've already tested it in advance. Although the amount is not large, it is very suitable for you to absorb!"
[Yeah. You're thoughtful.]
"Alright, then—Hey, Host, why are you standing there? Come here quickly, I'll show you a mission replay!"
"Oh, sure."
He Yuezhe then turned off the energy visualization and closed his eyes.
She gently touched her dry and painful eyes through her eyelids, then walked over.
[Okay, the story review is about to begin, please be prepared!]
"Host, please sit down!" the system patted the bench and said.

…
"Host, you don't choose to read the character biography this time?" The system was a little curious.
He Yuezhe shook his head: "That's not necessary."
"So, do you have any questions for me or the platform?"
"Yes, I do."
Just after He Yuezhe finished saying this, the system began to blink at her violently.
"Host, what do you want to ask?"
"Well, I want to ask..."
"Ugh! U ...
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?! This is a garden, not a place for you to vomit!!!"
“…”
He Yuezhe looked at Qu Biexing who suddenly started vomiting while being held by him, and had no choice but to pat its back.
"Are you okay?" He Yuezhe asked with a worried look on his face.
“Ouch! O ...
"Host! Why is it eating the bracelet?! I don't even eat these!!!"
[Hey, is this the special item you brought back from your small world?]
"No!! Master, it's actually——"
^
"Ugh ugh ugh cough cough cough!!!"
When Qu Biexing woke up from a dizziness, she saw some kind of white flowers hanging around her mouth and on her clothes. She gasped in fright.
——As expected, it choked on the food it had not yet vomited out.
"Qu Biexing, are you awake?"
"Wuwuwu, wuwuwu, wuwuwu, cough ...
"But, where is this?"
“Why are there so many flowers blooming, but no fragrance at all?”
"I remember the flowers that my mother-in-law planted at her house were so fragrant." Qu Biexing frowned and said as he cleaned the flowers off his body, "Are these all fake flowers?"
"Fake flowers? Qu Biexing, what are fake flowers?"
"Fake flowers are fake, artificial flowers. They're made by humans... I heard there are even some made of glass!"
Qu Biexing took out a clean piece of white paper from his pocket and said quickly, "You must have never seen it before! I'll fold one for you and you'll recognize it!"
"Really? Thank you."
"No, you're welcome!" Qu Biexing felt a little embarrassed.
This was the first time that anyone other than Twenty had thanked it.
Although Sister Twenty often says that she can fold paper, it is actually her skill.
But strangely, Qu Biexing did not feel the energy fluctuations caused by the skill.
In other words, it learned the art of origami by itself, right?
"How about it!?"
Qu Biexing shook his head, ignored these unanswered words, and held up the results in his hand high.
"It looks great, you're amazing."
"Of course! I am—I am!!! I am…"
Strange images swarmed into Qu Biexing's small mind and occupied it.
"I am……"
Those images made Qu Biexing's brain hurt so much.
It covered its head and the things in its hands fell to the ground.
"Qu Biexing. What's wrong with you?"
"I, I, my head hurts so much," Qu Biexing was in so much pain that he could hardly speak clearly, although he was not very good at speaking.
"Qu Biexing. Do you need my help?"
"I, I..." Qu Biexing's eyes were a little blurry after being rubbed by its little hands. It raised its head and said, "I'm fine. I'll be fine in a while."
It unconsciously imitated Twenty's tone and intonation, and even this sentence was once said by Twenty.
"Qu Biexing. Why aren't you looking at me?"
"Aren't you showing me kindness by giving me flowers?"
"You... aren't her?"
"Who are you?"
"I?"
"I am."
【who I am? 】
How could you ask such a question? Qu Biexing.
You and I are both "created."
"Created" things should not have a desire for knowledge, should not have a self, and should not create.
【Qubiexing. 】
[qubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexingqubiexing]
You betrayed us.

"Little Nut? What's wrong with you?"
He Yuezhe was holding Qu Biexing, and the nut-shaped doll began to twitch violently before it had finished spitting out the tassel bracelet.
"Host, is it possessed by evil spirits?!" The system was startled and hid behind the tassel tree.
"…Somewhat."
He Yuezhe didn't quite know what to do at this moment, so he could only keep Qu Biexing in a safe and comfortable position as much as possible.
"Host, what I just told you about, ah, what do you think?" The system said shyly, "It's about those issues regarding the platform and the world."
There was a silence.
He Yuezhe looked at the tassel tree that moved without wind and whose energy could only gather five meters around it.
She touched the system's head and said softly, "Yes, I have known Lin Jining for a long time."
"Even these three deaths were a result of our first encounter."
"This plan was born the moment I removed his vital core."
"I looked at him and he looked at me."
“‘Death’, ‘I need death’, ‘Death by any means necessary’.”
"—This is what I told him, my plan."
"As for the platform and 'that'..."
"'Everyone go to hell'?"
"S-Host...?"
"Do you think I would think that?"
"But, I'm sorry, this time, let's all walk this path together."
He Yuezhe lowered his head and said with a smile:
"Then, I'll die with you, okay?"
