Chapter 85 Epilogue: Tulip (Part 2) She will always live in Qubie...
"Of course, the house over there is much more comfortable!" the old woman said. "Alright, then you guys rest here for a while. I'll go catch up with the old man!"
After the old woman finished speaking, she waved to He Yuezhe and Xiao Jianguo, then quickly ran away from them to reminisce about the past with the old man.
…
"Host, the target of the mission lives in this building," the system said. "I will send you the maps before and after the renovation!"
"good."
Ever since being punished, He Yuezhe basically stopped talking to the system on his own initiative unless he had something important to talk to it about.
But the strange thing is that the system's attitude towards her is uncharacteristically abnormal. No matter whether it is a trivial matter or a big matter, it will always bring it up, even if no one pays attention to it.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Little Walnut leaned in He Yuezhe's arms, rubbed her arm, and asked curiously.
An itchy feeling came over me.
"No, I'm talking to the system." He Yuezhe shook his head. "But don't move around, or you'll fall."
She walked in the corridor of the central building, looking at the people coming and going in front of her. Along the way, she met many people who greeted her and said they wanted to take a photo with the savior. She found a random excuse to run away, but her hands couldn't help but tightened.
"Sister, is your system really different from mine? I feel it's as stupid as mine." said Little Nut.
Yes, so much time has passed, and He Yuezhe had to admit that this little nut was the "Qu Bie Xing" in the diary.
It came from the previous world that He Yuezhe had visited.
——The game world of the holographic era.
"As for man-made creatures, not everyone is as smart as you," He Yuezhe smiled and scratched its nose. "Qu Biexing?"
"Hehe," Qu Biexing laughed innocently, "You know my name."
"Ha, what do you think I read in that diary?"
"I thought you were just plain bored."
“…It’s a bit boring indeed.”
"Host! Have you seen the map? Give me a clear answer!"
“…”
"elder sister?"
"Wait."
He Yuezhe put Qu Biexing into his pocket and ran to where the old woman was moving things.
…
"Mother-in-law!"
"Hey, what's wrong? Is someone bullying you?"
The old woman was cleaning the floor with a mop and turned around quickly when she heard the sound.
"No," He Yuezhe stood outside the door with his hands behind his back, "Grandma, I have a friend here, I want to go find her, is that okay?"
"Sure, then you can keep the nut. Its... uh, oh magic should be quite useful."
"OK."
"Hey hey hey hey hey hey!? I, I, come help?!"
"yes."
Beads of sweat appeared on the old woman's forehead. She shook the hair on both sides and wiped it away with a towel.
Her thin cheeks, against the backdrop of children's stickers...
"Um, why did you put a sticker on your face?" He Yuezhe asked.
"Oh? Ah, you mean this?" The old woman was stunned for a moment, then seemed to react. "This is something my child left behind. I thought it was useless anyway, so I just found a place to stick it."
"Good, such a random answer."
"Hey, little guy, come here quickly, help me put white paper here and there, and then..."
"Oh, okay."
"Then I'll go first."
"Go ahead, go ahead. We'll call you when you leave."
"Bye, sis."
"Um."
^
"Connecting all the houses together... would everyone really agree to this proposal?"
"Host, I'm not quite sure about this. It seems to be related to the basic settings of the world." The system replied.
"I remember the basic premise here was that 'humans are wrapped in plastic wrap because they care too much about what others think of them,' so after they took it off, everyone became more cheerful, and it didn't deviate from the premise."
"Ah, I understand."
"Ding-ling-ling."
He Yuezhe walked from the second floor to the top floor and finally found the familiar door.
The ground in front of the door was a little uneven, and a faint smell of blood was spreading from it.
A rug with a bear pattern on it was placed at the door, as if trying to cover it all up.
"No. 0705, user, you have a new visit request, please process it as soon as possible!"
Below the doorbell, a figure appeared on a display screen and slowly spoke.
"...It's coming!" The girl's voice was unusually cheerful.
"Squeak."
The black stone door was pushed open.
A small figure poked its head out from the crack in the door.
The girl was wearing a bear nightgown, her bangs pinned to the side. Her frail figure was in stark contrast to the overly tall door.
"Host, you really can't be soft-hearted this time."
"Hello."
"You—He, Yuezhe!?"
"Ding Dong, your visit request has been processed! I wish you a happy life and everything goes well!"
"You finally recognized me." He Yuezhe laughed twice when he heard that.
Twenty tugged at her sleeves, and the scar on her arm was faintly visible under her clothes.
"Great savior who saved the world, may I ask why you haven't left yet?" Twenty asked a question, but his words were extremely affirmative.
He Yuezhe said, "I'm here to get something Chen Shuo left for me. You should know where it is, right?"
"What if I don't want to give it to you?" Twenty looked left and right, walked out and grabbed the hem of He Yuezhe's clothes, "He Yuezhe, tell me, if I give it to you, will you leave here quickly?!"
"No, I will 'accompany you until death'." He Yuezhe shook his head.
"...Okay, I was just kidding. I'll get it for you. Wait here for me."
"good."
…
The gap in the door was blown a little wider by the wind outside the window.
The fluorescent TV and soft sofa inside appeared in He Yuezhe's eyes again.
"In addition to this great savior, we would also like to express our special thanks to the members of the organization that provided us with the materials this time."
"They are Qian Bao, an off-campus employee, Lin Jining, an off-campus employee, and Qian Die, the organization's top employee."
“Maybe there are many friends who don’t know them yet.”
"In fact, they also did their best during the 'Great Purge' many years ago."
"Among them, Qian Bao, a special staff member assigned to the school, and Lin Jining, a special staff member assigned to the school, tragically died in the 'Great Purge'. We express our deepest condolences for this."
"So today's—sizzle—"
"Hey, you're not watching TV, are you?"
He Yuezhe was indeed watching, and was watching very intently.
"No, I'm just standing here waiting for you." She confidently made way for Twenty and denied it.
"I don't believe it," Twenty sneered, "but I'll give it to you anyway. This is what she asked me to do, and I can't keep it for myself."
A brand new square gift box was handed to He Yuezhe.
"Let's take a look."
Untie the perfectly tied bow, open the box, and a faint fragrance will greet you.
"It smells so good..." He Yuezhe couldn't help but say.
"Hehe, you haven't seen this before, right? This is the giant underwater grape, a limited edition!" Twenty put his hands on his hips, "It's fragrant and delicious!"
...So the cube I had been in was actually this gift box?
"You gave this to me?"
"Hey! Hey hey hey hey, no way!!"
It seems to be true.
He Yuezhe turned his gaze back to the gift box.
The item that took up the most space was the grape that had once been possessed by her, followed by the even older diary.
Apart from the two things that He Yuezhe had already touched, the remaining things were a bunch of dried flowers, a bunch of hay, a small gift that He Yuezhe had given to Chen Shu a long time ago, and five clay figurines with strange appearances and shapes.
The little people were all wrapped together in bubble wrap with a sticky note on them.
——"Xiaozhe, I wish you a peaceful and safe life!!!"
The font is familiar, but it's written a little crookedly.
There were several simple drawings of different sizes drawn on the wrinkles with a graffiti pen.
"Can you hold the box for me, please?"
"oh."
Open the bubble wrap and the little people with names on them will appear.
——"He Yuezhe", "Chen Shuo", "█ █ █", "█ █ █", "Yuan Yang"
After being freed, the little people kept dancing.
For some reason, their faces have become blurred and their facial features are basically unrecognizable.
The clothes she wore were quite strange, which made Twenty, who was holding a gift box beside her, dumbfounded.
"You used to dress like this?" Twenty asked, moving closer and looking at the little man with the name "He Yuezhe" on his sticker.
"Host, this is indeed very advanced and fashionable."
He Yuezhe coughed twice to cover the little people: "Ahem, that's enough!"
"I'm leaving now. See you again if we're lucky, Twenty." She smiled at Twenty, then took the gift box, packed it up, and walked towards the stairs.
"But He Yuezhe, the most untrustworthy thing in our world is 'fate'."
Twenty's voice came from behind: "So, see you next time."
“…”
"goodbye."
^
"Oh, it's just a relief. If my child were still alive, he might be as capable as you!"
As soon as he walked downstairs, He Yuezhe heard the old woman talking to someone with a smile.
"Grandma, I'm back."
“Sister, help!!!”
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about? Why do you want help?" The old woman looked puzzled, but did not stop it.
Qu Biexing immediately rushed into He Yuezhe's arms and complained aggrievedly: "Sister, she, she, she...!!"
“Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…”
"Hey, let me tell you first, I didn't bully it."
"That's right, why would our Boss Tang bully a little doll?"
Along with the sound, an old man slowly walked out from the depths of the house.
"What?! Host, this isn't—"
"Have you had a good rest and finally decided to come with me?" The old woman, who was called "Boss Tang", did not refute, but just mocked the old man twice.
"Ouch, that's because I didn't know you were awake." The old man took out a fan from his waistband and fanned himself, saying, "And my injury... Ouch!"
"Be careful." The old woman rushed over quickly, supported the old man, and looked at him worriedly.
"Long time no see, Boss Yang."
"Hey, hey, Boss Tang, I have to introduce this to you."
"Do you know each other?"
"Of course, she's my old customer! During the time I was in the department store, she often came to buy things from me!"
Yang Zhizhi, no, to be precise, it’s Yue Zhizhi.
With the help of the old woman, he walked in front of He Yuezhe and started to introduce himself to the old lady in a random manner.
"So, I'm still pretty well connected, right?" Yue Zhizhi puffed out his chest and asked, "Even without you, I can still communicate with people. Isn't that impressive?"
"Okay, okay, okay, you're like a little kid. You're so old, and you still want me to praise you. How shameless."
The old woman flicked his forehead hard, and Yue Zhizhi almost fell to the ground.
"Ouch, it hurts! Pomegranate, you just watch and don't even say a word to help me?"
"Ouch," He Yuezhe said, "I accidentally dropped Qu Biexing on the ground. She quickly picked it up and said, "I'm fine."
"Hmph, well, now you're ganging up on me, an old man? Maiya, you don't even care about your robots," Yue Zhizhi said as if he was acting like a spoiled child to the old woman. "That's not heartwarming at all!"
"We're just friends. How can a friend control a friend? Besides, for an old man like you, I think the more you're scolded, the happier you are."
Yue Maya was almost carrying Yue Zhizhi.
He Yuezhe held Qu Biexing in his arms, followed the two of them, closed the door of the Black Stone House, and walked downstairs.
…
"Sister, do you know that old man? Who is he?"
"Old man? Well, having lived for thousands of years, he really deserves the title of 'old man'."
"Maiya, look at them. That little doll actually called me an old man. I'm so young, am I an old man?"
“…Indeed.”
"Old man, who are you? Don't we know each other?"
"Old man, I'm a giant monster that eats nuts, hahahahahahahahahaha!!"
"Don't scare it."
"Hey, Xiaozhi, you really are getting younger and younger."
"Oh my, I love to hear you praise me, Maya. Can you praise me a few more times?"
"Ha, that's a nice thought."
"Sister, they have a very good relationship, even better than the two of us."
"Of course they are. After all, they are..."
"What is it?"
"It's a partner!" "It's a lover."
"Maiya, aren't we married?"
"Are you talking about that ghost marriage? It's too unlucky. Let me calculate the date and we can talk about it another day."
“T-then…”
"Shut up."
"oh."
"Sister, let's talk quietly. I'll be scared if there's no sound."
"Okay, you want to—"
"He, ahem, pomegranate!!!"
Behind them, above the stairs, a girl's clear voice suddenly appeared.
"Oh my, isn't this the twenty-year-old little girl?"
"You really have a good network of contacts."
"Boss Yang and Boss Tang, you are here too."
Twenty ran down quickly and walked at the end of the group.
"I'm here to say goodbye to you," Twenty said. "I heard that you, Boss Tang, were moving soon, so I thought I'd come and see you off."
"Host……"
"Then send it to the first floor. When the decoration is completed there, I will treat you to dinner." Tang Maya's face was filled with a big smile.
"Yeah! Boss Tang, even though you often make the kitchen explode, the food tastes really good!"
"Oh my, that's quite a compliment."
"Boss Yang! Stop being so sour! How can you be called a good man if you can't even mend clothes or water flowers?!"
"cut."
"Twenty Sister, don't be angry, I can mend clothes and water flowers. I can help you!"
"Stop meddling in my affairs, you little idiot! Now that I'm leaving you, you're saying all this? Could it be that—you don't miss me at all!?"
"Host……?"
The sunlight finally broke through the darkness and shone on Tang Maya and Yue Zhizhi, who were in the lead.
"I, I miss you too... wuwuwuwuwu..."
"Don't cry, don't cry, it's so annoying!!"
"Well, let's get in the car and put our things there first. You can come over when you're done talking," said Tang Maya.
"Maiya, it's finally our two woooooooooooooooooooooooo??"
"Okay." He Yuezhe responded.
^
"Sister Pomegranate, Sister Twenty, why aren't you talking?" Qu Biexing was a little worried.
It originally thought of not disturbing them and finding a place to cry secretly.
But who would have thought that when it came back, it saw the two of them standing there and unwilling to speak.
"Is it because I'm here?"
"Don't think too much." Sister Pomegranate touched Qu Biexing's head with concern.
Qu Biexing felt like crying again.
It turned around, held back its tears, and then looked back.
"Twenty Sister, why are you crying? Are you unhappy? I'll go pick some flowers for you."
"No need! Cough cough cough cough..."
"Then let's go."
Sister Pomegranate picked up Qu Biexing, and Qu Biexing snuggled in her warm embrace.
"oh."
Sister Pomegranate's pace was getting faster and faster, she was almost running!
Qu Biexing faced the wind, turned around and pretended to bury himself in Sister Pomegranate's arms.
"Sister Pomegranate." Qu Biexing heard something seem to break in the gift box she was holding. "Slow down, everything is broken."
Through the gap between her arms, Qu Biexing saw the building called the Centralization Building.
It is very big and very high.
Is this why Sister Twenty, standing at the door, looks so insignificant?
Qu Biexing didn't understand.
"Sister Pomegranate?" it called softly to the person who didn't answer and ran wildly holding it.
【Qubiexing. 】
Qu Biexing suddenly heard his own name. It turned out that it was his twenty-sister who was signing in sign language.
She actually saw herself...
But why did she become shorter?
But why didn't her hands move?
But why can't the sunlight shine on her?
The twenty-sister whom Qu Biexing has always, always, and forever loved;
This twenty-sister who always protects it and always tries her best to find it;
This younger sister, who is still young but always likes to protect it—
Why can't Qu Biexing see her anymore?
Why can't Qu Biexing hear her? !
Why can't Qu Biexing feel her anymore? ! !
——Is she dead?
Died next to a garbage dump?!
No, no ...
Qu Biexing covered the patch on his heart.
No.
She is alive.
She will always live in Qu Biexing's heart.
