[Detective: Not bad, the first semester went well.]
【Girl: Hey, I studied very hard. 】
[Girl: Detective, I learned how to make cookies. Can you try the cookies and the tea I made? ]
…
Su Mingan tasted Alice's biscuits and felt the fragrance of flowers blooming in his mouth. They were delicious. Black tea also had a spring flavor, like peach blossoms blooming on branches.
Alice said that this is called "Spring Heart Cookie", a kind of cookie that people like to make when they express their longing for spring.
“Every time I think about the return of the detective after spring, I’m looking forward to it.” Alice said:
"I thought about what you said to me, that you would come back in just half a year. So, these past few days I have been making spring cakes and brewing black tea over and over again, just for the moment when you come back, so that you can eat the freshly made spring cakes and drink the hot black tea."
“It’s so nice to see you smile now.”
Su Mingan was startled, and then he realized that he was smiling. Every time he entered this game, he felt very relaxed, just like returning home.
…
[Detective: Has anything happened in the past six months? For example, any important policies, any famous heroes, or any sudden monsters? ]
[Girl: There hasn’t been anything major happening recently. I just heard that a certain force has established a country.]
[Detective: Jianguo?]
[Girl: Hmm... I think it's called something like Huo Mu or something? This new country claims to rebel against the gods. No one cares much about this newly established small country. Such a newly established small country basically cannot last long.]
[Detective: So there are gods here too. ]
[Girl: Yes, the gods often send down oracles to tell the king what to do. Everyone will listen to the gods’ orders.]
[Detective: It sounds like the gods have a good reputation.]
[Girl: Of course. The churches in the city are often crowded, and the streets are full of residents going to pray.]
[Detective: Alice, what do you think of gods? ]
[Girl (thinking for a moment): I believe in all the goodness in the world, and I long to see happy smiles on people's faces. If gods can make people happy, I am willing to believe in gods. But if gods are actually bad guys, I will not believe in gods.]
[Detective: Rare rationality.]
[Detective: If one day, the gods ask you to confront me, Alice, what will you choose? ]
…
Alice was obviously stunned. She didn't understand why Su Mingan suddenly asked such a question.
…
【Girl: I...will choose you. 】
[Detective: Why? That is an omnipotent god.]
[Girl: The vision of the gods is too broad. They can see all the suffering people on this land. The number of people is in the billions, and they cannot see the joys and sorrows of a single person. But you, Detective, you only have me in your vision. You only care about my fate, and your eyes can see me better. So, if I have the opportunity to choose, I will choose you, because you are the person closest to me. You are not a god with a broad vision. We are the only ones who can rely on each other. ]
[Detective: Even if you are against the world?]
【Girl: Even if I am against the world. 】
…
Su Mingan sighed.
Although Alice was only thirteen years old, when she thought about the prospects of this game, she vaguely saw a cruel future.
"destiny".
She has been chosen and there is no escape.
Just like he was chosen by the death replay.
"...Why are you so nice?" Su Mingan said in a low voice.
"Oh, by the way, Detective, I also learned how to grow flowers from Grandpa Morgan across the street. Please come with me to the backyard!" Alice suddenly pulled Su Ming'an back.
Lifting the curtain of the back door, Su Mingan looked up and saw - a sea of lilies.
The white flowers swayed in the late spring wind, as if they were carved from white marble or crystal flowers. Alice walked to the sea of flowers, opened her arms, and the warm wind lifted her floral skirt, dancing among the white flowers.
"These are the flowers that Grandpa Morgan left with me. He asked me to take care of them for him." Alice shouted, "Detective! I have been taking care of these flowers. Do you think they are beautiful?"
"......Yeah." Su Mingan nodded.
"As you like." Alice laughed.
"I'm going to give this pot to Doctor Weiwei, and this pot... this pot will be left for Aunt Jenny. And this pot, Knight Wendell said he likes lilies very much, so I'll give it to him next time he comes to inspect..."
Su Ming'an looked up and looked at the busy Alice.
How long can this ordinary life last?
Suddenly, he saw a new icon appear in the lower left corner of his vision.
…
【Pre-game questionnaire. 】
…
Su Mingan clicked it, and a panel appeared:
[This questionnaire is issued by the gods to all Dream Patrol members in order to explore their game satisfaction. There are ten questions in total, please answer them truthfully. There will be a small reward after filling out the questionnaire. ]
[Question 1: ...]
…
This familiar game questionnaire made Su Mingan feel as if he had returned to the era of playing computer games.
"God?" Su Mingan whispered.
In addition to the anchor platform administrator, forum pinning administrator, forum post deletion administrator, and psychological counselor witness, Shenling has added another position - game satisfaction investigator?
The gods of this world really have a kind of... indescribable cyber sense. The end of Cthulhu is actually science fiction.
