…
Act I.
You have been pursuing someone.
You have watched him for a long time, you have witnessed his suffering and pain, his repeated deaths, his struggles in retrospection, and his tears alone in the abandoned timeline... You have an idea - if only I were by his side at that time, it would be great.
You want him to be happy.
So, you have been looking for him, but you can't remember what he looks like or his name.
…
You passed by a church where people were performing a play. It is said that a few hundred years ago, the evil god destroyed an era with his own hands, and his crimes were too numerous to list.
An actor with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a veil symbolizing an evil god, sang loudly: "I am the evil god Su. For my own selfish desires, I buried the era of immortals and demons and massacred countless innocent civilians. Now I am trying to kill the steam era. Only when the new god A wakes up can he save us..."
The lyrics are harsh and make you angry.
"Stop! Stop!" You rushed to the stage: "What you are singing is wrong! The facts are not like this at all, you are confusing right and wrong!"
An old man frowned and said, "Then tell me, what is the truth?"
You were stunned, your mind went blank, you couldn't remember anything about the old god, you just spoke subconsciously.
“Anyway…anyway, you are wrongly accusing the good God.” You could only stammer.
They all shook their heads and sighed: "The evil god has bewitched another little girl. Look how crazy she has become..."
You were pushed away, and the wooden sign of the lighthouse in your arms fell to the ground and broke into two pieces. You felt sad... He gave it to you personally.
...Hmm? Him?
who is he?
…
You passed by an art shop and on a whim, you started learning painting.
You try to draw the person in your mind, but your mind is blank. You want to write his name with ink, but only silent water marks are left.
...Who am I looking for?
You bid farewell to this city, wandering in different countries, constantly enriching yourself. Along the way, your fame grows. People say that there is a "painting fairy" in the world, and a painting is worth a fortune.
But you never found him.
…
You have traveled to almost every corner of the world.
The flames of war spread across the land, and the battle of faith between the old god Su and the new god A began, but you still haven't found that person.
You feel more and more tired, so you find a small village by the sea, live there and stop traveling.
You adopted a baby and watched him grow up. As you began to live permanently, in order to avoid being rejected by others, you no longer maintained your youth and allowed your body to age.
…
You start to dream frequently and your heart always feels empty.
"Aunt, your legs and feet are not good, where are you going?" Your adopted child Qin Ying hurried over and stopped you from rushing into the sea.
You stare blankly at the sea, fantasizing about something.
...Will someone suddenly appear, stepping on the mechanical roulette wheel like a hero?
"Aunt, what are you looking at?" Qin Ying squatted down and looked at the colorful candies in your hand. He thought you were an old man with Alzheimer's disease because some of your behaviors were really nonsensical.
You look at the candy wrapper in your palm.
Lemon candy, strawberry candy and pineapple candy are all delicious.
"Made in Italy..."
It's strange, why can you pronounce this completely unfamiliar text? It's like it has always been buried in your mind.
Who gave you this candy?
"Stars..." You look up and see the sky full of shining stars.
It's like you made a promise with someone. It's like someone once held your hand and looked up at the sky with you.
...On Fuyuan Festival, the stars in the sky are the eyes of the deceased, they are lighting the way forward for us.
Who said this...?
——You are the heroine on the stage, I will never forget you.
Who is it?
…
"Su Ming'an——!" You woke up in the middle of the night, and for some reason, this name came out of your mouth. You quickly wrote it down.
The ink is smudged, and you stare at the name for a long time, but your mind is still blank.
【Su Mingan】.
Qin Ying heard the noise, pushed the door open, and saw your name on the drawing paper.
"This is the name of the evil god. Why did your aunt write it down? Throw it away!" Qin Ying hurriedly tried to pull you.
"Su Ming'an...Su Ming'an..." You repeated the name over and over again, and your tears wet the portrait.
…
One day, you fainted due to exhaustion.
When I woke up again, I saw a clean and tidy room. A young man with long black hair was sitting at the table. The light from the window sill fell into his eyes, emitting a cool and clean light.
You sit up in bed.
"You fainted at the beach, and I happened to pass by and saved you. Your soul is very thin, probably because you woke up from the bottom of the sea early. For safety, you will stay by my side and recuperate from now on." The black-haired young man looked at you: "I'll go call a doctor."
You clearly don't know him, but you feel particularly peaceful in your heart.
"Don't go first." you said.
He turned back to look at you, his eyes soft.
"Can I know your name?" you say.
"As you can see." He said, "The evil god Su Xiaobai."
"No...you are not an evil god, and your name is not Su Xiaobai." You subconsciously retorted: "Did we know each other before? Otherwise, there is no need for you to save a stranger."
