[People showed their faces in front of the camera. A girl with pigtails, a red-haired young man with a mole on the corner of his eye, a woman holding a baby, an old man with white hair...]
[“Lord Oliver said that this time we will definitely be able to put an end to the endless reset! He told everyone the ballad of ‘Entering the Book’. As long as we recite the ballad at the last moment, we will enter the Garden of Eden where there will no longer be a red sun!” The old man said in high spirits.]
[“What will the Garden of Eden be like? Will there be endless candy to eat, endless milk to drink…” the girl with pigtails fantasized. ]
[“That’s the new world created by Lord Olivers himself! It must be perfect!” The yellow-haired boy with a bandage on his face shouted excitedly, raising his fist:]
[“We are going to a new world—We are going to a new world!!”]
[“There is no suffering or pain there, only flowing milk and honey! And golden bread!”]
[His energetic voice immediately made everyone in the slum burst into laughter. They had lived together since childhood and would be together until the last moment.]
[“But…” Maya, the little girl in the wheelchair, stammered, “I heard from sister Nata who works at the research institute that there have been 1,598 failures before us.”]
[“Oh, my little Maya, don’t be so pessimistic! Master Olivers said that this time it will definitely succeed!” Ponny patted her shoulder. ]
[The yellow-haired boy laughed and said, "That's right! I declare - from now on, the 1599th time is the limit! There won't be any higher numbers!"]
【“There are only 3 minutes left!” Ponny yelled. 】
[“Mother Lisa, hold little John tight, we are going to step into a new world together, don’t lose him!”]
[“Do you remember the song that Master Oliver taught you? Don’t sing it wrong!”]
[“Of course, I’ve sung it countless times in the past few days. The church choir also sings it every day, and the speakers in the square are almost broken!” The girl with pigtails raised her hand. ]
[“Then, let’s hold each other’s hands—”]
[They surrounded, the old man pulled the child, the child pulled the boy, the boy pulled the mother, the mother pulled the girl, the girl pulled the big man...]
[Similar to them, every group of people downstairs, every person far away... all looked at the red sun, ready to step into the new world. ]
[There - there is no end and no red sun, only milk and honey. ]
[There - there is no pain or sorrow, it is a brand new world in the book, all troubles can be offset with just a few strokes -]
[“Ten, nine, eight——”]
【The glory of the red sun is coming down little by little. 】
[Whether it was to cheer himself up or to pray, a halo flashed in the old man’s cloudy eyes, and he suddenly cried out in a hoarse voice:]
[“It will definitely work this time. Lord Oliver said it will definitely work this time—!”]
[The old man's roar was mixed with sobs.]
[Because, if it doesn’t work, if there is another reset… people like them, as small and humble as grains of sand, will disappear…]
[Next time, there will be new names like "Little John", "Yellow-haired Boy", "Very Spirited Old Man"... to replace them. ]
【In the eyes of the viewer, these are the same words. 】
【But in their eyes... this is their self and their whole life. 】
[In the great story of Luowasha, they are tiny, traceless, insignificant, not even accounting for a single word, yet they are everything to them.]
【They are transient beings. 】
【“Three, two, one——”】
【This moment.】
[People sang the ballad "Entering the Book":]
[“Look up.
I use the blue moonlight to write about the unknown and vastness of the universe.
You gave me eyes and peace through the dawn.
Thousands of midnights.
You molded a star out of dust and mud..."]
【“——!”】
【The red sun sets.】
[The singing stops abruptly.]
[The intense red light covered everything, covering the entire world. Like a sweeping tide and magma, it covered people.]
[At the end of the shot, there was a burst of red, and vast words emerged from them, from tens of billions of lives, turning into tens of billions of rivers of words, like dense black and gray rivers, flowing into the sky.]
[Above the sky, a web of words flows. ]
[The purple-haired creator is high above the clouds, commanding everything, and the world is at peace.]
[He bowed his head in silence, looking at the silent world, picked up the feather pen, and erased the latest line of words that appeared in the sky——]
[1599th reset (crossed out)]
[——1600th reset (new writing)]
【“…”】
[The Garden of Eden has not been completed, and the ballads that were "entered into the book" still have errors. Unfortunately, this time is doomed to fail. It will take a very long time... before there is a chance of success.]
He did deceive people.
[He is an arrogant and hypocritical creator, destined to disappoint those who have high expectations. ]
[The purple-haired creator sighed silently, waved his feather pen, and wrote down new content again.]
[——The Creator opened the book again.]
[The next story begins again. ]
[“Click”, the old camera fell to the ground, and no one picked it up with a smile. ]
…
Su Mingan looked at the video.
——This is just a tiny one out of 3027 times.
So this is what happened.
He walked forward, but suddenly heard a voice:
…
"——Su Mingan, do you want to read with me?"
…
A scent of blue roses wafted over, and the blond boy's eyes had fallen on him without him noticing.
Su Mingan confirmed that Nuoer had indeed seen him, and then he withdrew from the space to hide: "When did you find me?"
Noel's fingers moved: "I have a habit of placing a silk thread in your hearts. Your silk thread is vibrating too heavily. I know you are very close to me."
Su Mingan said: "So you knew it from the beginning."
Noel said, “Yeah.”
As the black water surged, he narrowed his blue eyes, lowered his hat brim, and suddenly said, "Su Ming'an, make a bet with me."
Su Mingan looked over, but could no longer see Nuoer's eyes: "...What bet?"
