Walter noticed that Bo Chang kindly asked, “Miss Fu Hua, are you worried about something? Or are you thinking about illusion and reality?”

"No, Mr. Walter, I have my own answers to the previous questions. I was just thinking about it." Bo Chang was a little surprised by Walter's behavior.

"I mentioned to you before that you are very similar to a friend of mine. She was also confused and spent a long time alone, but she finally got hope and became my companion." Walter talked eloquently.

Bo Chang just looked at Walter, and naturally knew who he was talking about.

"I'm not saying this to belittle you. I just hope that in this vast universe, there will be a day that gives you hope," Walter explained.

"I am not denying the existence of beauty, but when people are pursuing beauty, they often ignore the cruelty of reality. As you said, before gaining hope, they also experienced separation."

“Hmm…” Walter took a deep breath, obviously speechless by Bo Chang’s words, “Yes, after experiencing some things, I will pay more attention to the hard-won beauty. I am narrow-minded.”

"Here." Huang Quan walked over and handed the snow cake he had kept to Bo Chang.

"?" Bo Chang looked up at Huang Quan with some doubts.

"When you are in a bad mood, eat something good and you will feel much better. This is what an old friend of mine told me."

Bo Chang reached out to take the half piece of snow cake, his eyes constantly wandering back and forth between Huang Quan and the snow cake.

The moment he touched the snow cake, Bo Chang knew how valuable it was.

It's warm.

"Thank you." He took a deep breath without showing any emotion and ate half of the snow cake in two bites.

"Ah..." Huang Quan felt a little sorry when she saw Bo Chang eat it directly. After all, she had kept this half piece of snow cake for a long time. How long? She couldn't remember. Maybe it was yesterday? Or a long, long time ago?

Huang Quan placed his hand on the hilt of the knife and stayed there for a moment.

"Huh?" Walter noticed this detail.

"Let's leave this topic here for now and return to the previous topic." Huang Quan said, "If people voluntarily indulge in Pinoconi's dream, should they be woken up?"

"Well... let me tell you a story, Miss Huang Quan." Walter said with his arms crossed.

"There was a man in my hometown. When the world was facing a wound that was difficult to heal, he made a decision. He wove together the dreams of all people in the world, connected the dreams of each person, and then carried them on his own body. He once created a giant, a spiritual Adam. From then on, the giant stood between heaven and earth and became the pillar of the world's existence. As a price... those who find it difficult to move forward, those who cannot move forward... they will lose their future forever."

Walter paused for a moment, as if recalling his experience.

"They indulge in a dream without disaster or pain, and live a peaceful life in the utopia created by the man. However, the spiritual Adam will become indestructible because these people are unwilling to wake up."

"But now you are standing here, which means...that man has failed." Huang Quan interrupted.

"He failed...but he also succeeded..." Bo Chang interrupted again. This surprised Walter a little. He glanced at Bo Chang and continued.

"Because people always have to move towards the future, even if the weaknesses of human nature make them stop, but when they really can't move forward...humanity will definitely try to save themselves, and that man...just as Miss Fu Hua said, he has never been a loser. Like everyone in that world, he has engraved the possibilities of human nature in his heart. He is the sun chaser in the myth, flying towards the sky and welcoming his final victory by falling. After that, countless people will fly past him and fly to a higher sky than him."

"It's in line with Wumingke's pioneering spirit." Huang Quan said.

"Mr. Walter, there's no need to look at me like that. I know what you want to ask. In this vast universe, there are countless similar yet different worlds. In these worlds, there are also countless similar yet different people." Bo Chang got some goosebumps when he was looked at by Walter.

"I agree with this point very much. In different worlds, we met similar old friends and witnessed similar destinies. Although they are not exactly the same, in the story you described, I ended the man's life and was alone." Huang Quan said, "I am not the person you know, and my hometown is not as lucky as your world."

"I regret."

“It’s okay, Mr. Walter. I don’t mind if you clear your doubts.”

"But I still want to know, under the appearance of hunting, what kind of power is driving you to move forward alone, Miss Huang Quan."

"Let's get back to the topic we just talked about, Mr. Walter, I really like your metaphor...Birds are born to fly to the sky, time and time again, generation after generation to pursue the afterglow of the sun. Birds spread their wings and fly, trying to touch the zenith, just because the sun is there." Huang Quan looked into Walter's eyes and said, "Then, when the birds break through the clouds, they no longer see the sun hanging high in the sky, but the incomparably dark sun... Then why do we... have to walk towards the light?..."

Just then, a sad melody came from somewhere.

It made Walter feel creepy, as if he had heard it somewhere before or not.

He turned his head and looked around for the source of the sound. In his heart, he could clearly feel that it was related to the man he had talked about before.

"Note: I really can't find the lyrics. The one I found online seems to be called "See You in the Next World", a song about the destruction of the world, and it seems to be the music of Honkai Impact 3rd."

"Why do people chase after the sun?" Bo Chang spoke at this time, shocking Walter and Huang Quan. "Because they have to fly to the sky, even if there is a dark sun above the sky, only by flying towards the direction of the sun like a moth to a flame can they get a glimmer of hope, even if that glimmer of hope is extremely small... they have to fly, this is the meaning that man made me feel."

"Must fly...It seems that we all have similar experiences." Walter said, and he had more or less clarified Bo Chang's identity.

"Yes... you must... not fly without hesitation... like a moth to a flame... even if the final outcome is destruction." Huang Quan sighed.
