Noel smiled but didn't respond.
He pointed to the ladder next to him, indicating that he could climb up to the eaves from here.
"Let's go upstairs and eat. It will be early morning soon and there will be the final fireworks display. The view upstairs is great," he said.
Of course, they all jumped up directly, only Lin Yin had to climb the ladder with great difficulty.
"So, in your family, people also eat cake on birthdays." After climbing onto the roof, Su Mingan took a look at the fruit cake stacked with layers of cream.
Come to think of it, he still didn't know which country Noel was from.
The cake with burning candles is simple in style, not particularly exquisite, and has no complicated patterns on it, giving people a very simple and refreshing feeling.
"In my hometown... we don't have the custom of eating cake like this." Noel said with a smile: "I asked Yin Ke to make this for you."
"Yin, Yinke?" Su Mingan imagined the scene of the giant crow making a cake, and the picture was a bit unbearable to watch.
No wonder this cake looks so simple.
Noel raised his knife and fork, cut a piece of cake without candles, and handed it to Su Mingan who was sitting on the eaves.
The cold wind of a snowy night blows on my body, and as the cold cream enters my mouth, it brings a unique chill.
"I just took a hot spring bath, and now there's a cold wind..." Lin Yin wrapped her white cotton robe tightly around her body and muttered.
Even though she could run around in a short skirt, her physical condition was not strong enough to withstand the cold wind, and now she was shivering with cold.
"cluster."
A crisp sound.
Noel held the fiery red stone in his hand, and a flash of red flame appeared.
"Don't be afraid, I have this." He smiled, stood up, and the temperature control tool in his hand lit up.
The cold wind seemed to stop at this time, and the temperature in the air began to rise.
Lin Yin stopped shivering and her face became hot.
The air around seemed to gradually become warmer, and along with it came the prelude to the midnight fireworks festival.
"Look up—"
Several people looked up.
“Bang!”
The first beautiful firework suddenly burned hot in the night sky at this moment.
There seemed to be cheers from the crowd not far away, accompanied by dense and scattered applause.
The final celebration, the fireworks display began.
The bright colors enveloped the quiet roof, and the various lights shone on the faces of several people. The night sky above was brighter than the day.
Su Mingan wiped the cream from the corner of his mouth and raised his head.
“Crash!”
Another sound of fireworks bursting was heard.
His eyes were instantly fixed on the extremely brilliant fireworks.
...so much so that when he withdrew his gaze in an instant, there were still remnants of light spots in his eyes, and the eyes of his companion beside him, as bright as stars, suddenly broke into his field of vision and took over that moment of light.
Two pieces of cake appeared on the plate in Noel's hand.
"——I wish us good luck in fighting each other."
Noel stood up and held up the cake plate high towards the blood-red sign that looked like a lighthouse.
"I wish us good luck in military affairs!"
Lin Yin shouted.
Noel scratched his head: "I went to look up the information. Next, it seems that I need to make a wish?"
"Make a wish! Make a wish!" Lin Yin shouted, looking more excited than anyone else.
"Let's go together." Su Mingan said.
Several people participated in it. They closed their eyes and silently recited their wishes in their hearts.
At this moment, the slightly cool night breeze seemed hot.
The slightly longer black hair on his forehead scraped Su Mingan's eyebrows. He opened his eyes and the itchy warm breeze caressed his cheeks.
Under the brilliant waterfall of light, he saw two extremely bright spots of light in his field of vision, which looked very much like Noel's eyes looking at him.
A group of four people, sitting or standing, made beautiful wishes for the future in the last few seconds of the year, looking at the brilliant fireworks in the sky.
Lin Yin closed his eyes and thought to himself:
[May my Lin family be safe and sound, and my parents live a happy life...]
Lu Shu closed his eyes and lowered his head:
[I hope that one day... I can get my revenge, avenge my family, and... I hope that I can continue to walk with the "good people" in my mind. I hope that this hopeless game will end soon, and we can completely get out of this cruel copy...]
Noel clapped his hands and closed his eyes:
[I hope I can find my ideal "new world" soon. I hope my fellow travelers will not be isolated. I hope those children will get what they want.]
Su Mingan looked at them and closed his eyes.
The night wind blew on his cheeks as the light of the fireworks gradually faded away in the sky.
"--alright?"
The three of them opened their eyes one after another.
"Okay." Su Mingan opened his eyes.
"I'm curious about what you wish for." Noel said, "Strength, power, and status, you should have everything now, right? You are really in a position that countless people envy."
“Don’t speak out your wish!” Lin Yin immediately followed up: “It won’t work if you speak it out loud, just keep it in your mind!”
She lay on the eaves, moved over little by little, stretched out her hand and patted Su Mingan on the shoulder.
"Whether the wish comes true or not, we are here today and we are really happy. When this damn game is over, we must get together to celebrate. Ah, and those old friends and my mother, I really miss them. When the game is over, I must reunite with my old friends..."
As Lin Yin was talking, she imagined the future: "Also, there is the boiled fish fillet in my hometown, it's delicious, I really miss the taste of my mom's cooking, I miss home... After the game is over, I must have a good cry with my mom..." She patted Su Ming'an's shoulder vigorously, and then her movements faltered.
