Cyberpunk 2074: Shadows of the Past

"Do you know Déjà vu (French: déjà vu)?"

2074, January 13, 13:15

Clementine was walking on the beach, holding Joel's hand, and suddenly asked the man walking beside her for no reason.

The sound of waves breaking on the beach lingered in my ears.

The sea is wailing in pain for a long time.

"What did you say?" Joel woke up from his trance.

"Do you know Déjà vu?" Clementine pulled him to stand where he was and asked again unchanged.

"That should be a familiar feeling..." Joel's voice was broken, mixed with the cries of the waves dying.

"New experiences evoke previously forgotten memories."

"Forgotten memories?" Clementine tilted her head in confusion.

"I always feel that I seem to have forgotten something, something important to me..." Joel stood beside her, frowning.

"I feel fine this week...until I meet you, I will constantly feel like Déjà vu..." Clementine grabbed his hand and started walking on the beach again.

"Have I seen you somewhere before?" They looked at each other and said in unison.

"Maybe it was from the past life, and the relationship will continue in this life... maybe." Clementine thought optimistically, with a smile on her lips.

"Maybe..." Joel was noncommittal and allowed her to pull him forward.

"Déjà vu..." Clementine turned to look at a seaside hut, "That feeling is coming again..."

"Have you seen this cabin?" she asked Joel next.

"Perhaps...in a dream..." He rubbed his chin. He was a rational thinker and liked to answer ambiguously.

"I always feel like we are destined..." Clementine likes romance and is always willing to immerse herself in fantasy.

"That's true..." Joel showed a rare smile, "Whether it's a previous life or an illusion, it's always fate that we can meet on the same train."

"Then cherish it!" She shouted with a smile, jumping on the beach, her flying long hair dazzling him.

"Okay!" He was infected by Clementine's passionate emotions and responded loudly, chasing the woman who was drifting away.

"Do you like this feeling? The feeling of running on the beach, by the sea, away from all worries and noises!" Clementine patted the thin back of the panting man who finally caught up with her.

"It's good to come here once in a while..." He breathed heavily in the humid sea air, his legs as heavy as lead.

"Look at your weak look, but your mouth is so stiff..." Clementine shook her head and laughed, hugging the man's entire arm and dragging him forward.

"...The running scene just now...do you feel like Déjà vu?" The cold wind penetrated into his lungs, irritating him so much that he had to slow down his breathing.

"No..." She thought for a few seconds and replied softly, "So it's just an illusion..."

"After all, we are in the real world. How could fantasy things happen to us..." Yahweh relayed Joel's answer word for word.

The detective lady and her assistant were standing next to the vending machine outside the beach, about two hundred meters away from the target.

Xi Da once wondered how Yahweh used his illusory body to participate in and influence the real world.

It wasn't until she used the chip to open her "God's perspective" with her prosthetic eyes to observe him, and saw billions of data streams flying freely in the man's ten slender fingers like threads, that she suddenly realized it.

"Data is my loyal servant, Xi Da." Yahweh seemed to have insight into her mind. While monitoring the target, he took the time to explain, "Data is my eyes, my ears...my five senses...data is almost useless. Everywhere..." He paused and meant something.

"So... in fact, we don't have to run out to stalk the target. Can't you easily do it at home?" Xi Da hid her body in his warm arms to avoid being caught by the cold and damp sea breeze.

"My signal source is inside your head..." Yahweh knew that the little lazy boy in his arms would have such questions. He had already thought of his response, "I'm worried that the force is too strong and you won't be able to bear it."

"Don't say this in broad daylight!" She turned around and pressed her face against his chest, covering her pretty face that turned red.

Yahweh seemed to be relieved, but the slight gasp was clearly heard by the girl lying in his arms.

"I will wait for you until you make up your mind one day..." Xida silently recited the promise she made when they first met, closed her eyes, and quietly enjoyed his warm embrace.

"I've thought about it!" Clementine excitedly grabbed Joel's hand that was about to let go, "Shall I stay at your house tonight?"

"Huh?" Joel opened his mouth wide in surprise. The woman's straightforward words cleared away the layers of doubts that had troubled him, but they were like a stick, knocking his head dizzy.

"'Ah' what? Is it weird?" Clementine tilted her head and looked at the man's stunned face. The sea breeze blew her long blue-green hair, covering her eyes and blocking Joel's ability to peer into her soul. way.

"Do you think it's strange? Yahweh? Our acquaintance and love? Do you think it's strange?" Xi Da listened to the man's low voice, leaned her head on his chest, and asked softly.

"We? Our meeting and falling in love were destined, Xi Da." Yahweh thought for a few seconds and gave her the firmest answer.

"Why?" She was excited after receiving the honest answer, and her curiosity couldn't help but flooded her heart again.

"The day we met... I saw the fire in your heart. I have never seen anyone's emotions be so intense and so pure before... You are a real person..." Yahweh caressed her hand. Hair, closing eyes, thinking back to their first meeting.

"Larch Buttermoss is extremely talented, but he is very scheming, waking me up and hindering me. In the end, his wisdom is mistaken for his wisdom; Ott Cunningham is trapped by love, hurt by love, and his heart is as dead as death; Saburo Arasaka sends his dream to Eternal life, all ambitions shrivel into bubbles and stink..." He word by word, recalled the faces he had seen.

"Only you, Xida..." He lowered his head and stared at each other with her eyes open. "You voluntarily bear thousands of shackles on your body, but there is endless fire burning in your heart. You struggle, wanting to release your heart. The fire will burn this world together with yourself..."

"So...your beauty is unparalleled..." Yahweh gently held her beautiful and flawless face with his hands, and even he was willing to sink into those violet eyes.

"It was you who woke me up, it was you who attracted me, it was you who infected me, Xi Da..."

"I love you with all my heart...my Seraph...Xi Da." He lowered his head and kissed her moist lips, holding her tightly in his arms with both hands, as if embracing the whole world.

"Yahweh..." She murmured, allowing her body and mind to stick together tightly with him, without any separation.

There will be another update in the evening
