Mist System: Legend of Stars and Moon

Chapter 43 Xu Xuerui's Half Life

Xu Xuerui always thought that she could endure the days, but this kind of life soon came to an end.

Xu Xuerui held her daughter lying in a pool of blood. She didn't bring her cell phone with her, so she could only try to ask for help from passers-by around her: "Call 120. Please... please... please."

"120, please call 120."

The neighbors were still in their pajamas, and some of them took out their cell phones and called 120.

Everyone watched all this in silence, no one dared to step forward, they could only sigh and lament.

Xu Xuerui hoped so much that her daughter could come back to life. She screamed to the sky: "My daughter, please wake up! Oh my God!"

"Yaaaa! Why are you so depressed?"

It would be great if a person could get his life back by screaming to the heavens, but how is that possible?

Xu Xuerui asked her daughter in her arms: "Oh my! Who pushed you down? Mommy will call the police to catch him immediately. Wake up!"

There was blood coming out of Xu Ranqing's mouth, and he didn't move at all.

A familiar sound was heard, and an ambulance with flashing lights arrived, like a ray of dawn coming to Xu Xuerui.

With a trembling voice, she said to her daughter in her arms: "The ambulance is here. My daughter, you are saved."

"Daughter, Mommy has prepared a table of your favorite dishes for you, please wake up!"

Xu Xuerui touched her daughter's cold little hand, trying to warm it up, but it was all in vain.

Xu Xuerui had forgotten the time. She didn't know when she was sitting outside the emergency room. Her heart had calmed down a little, and she probably didn't have any time to be sad.

Subsequent death certificates, account cancellation certificates, and various other certificates were waiting for her to apply for, but she had no time to be sad.

Quietly waiting for the end of fate.

The police checked the surveillance footage and found no suspicious persons and no fingerprints from anyone on the victim, so the case was ultimately closed as suicide.

The cremation certificate had been processed, and Xu Xuerui used the remaining money to decorate her daughter and send her to another world.

The crematorium is an alternative assembly line, where relatives send their loved ones off with cries and screams.

When Xu Xuerui arrived, she was alone and could no longer cry. Her daughter was gone with the crisp sound of cremation.

There was no farewell from relatives and friends. Xu Xuerui was the only one who was grieving. Xu Xuerui did not hold a funeral for her daughter. She would not let anyone know about her daughter's death.

She took her daughter's ashes to the cemetery she had chosen and left without even taking a second look.

Good luck fooling people!

Afterwards, the residents of the building moved out one after another, leaving the community deserted.

Xu Xuerui was sitting at the door doing nothing. She heard the sound of people upstairs moving luggage and cursed, "What bad luck. This unlucky thing happened to us."

"When you grow up, will you also jump off the building?"

The girl's cries echoed throughout the building.

"Don't cry, why are you crying?"

The man's stern reprimand frightened her daughter, and she cried even louder.

The man also felt that his daughter was upset and was about to carry her downstairs and put her in the car. At this time, Xu Xuerui opened the door and happened to meet the man.

Xu Xuerui kept repeating: "Daughter, my daughter."

She walked over to the man and tried to hold his child.

The man stepped back hastily. He had not expected to run into this woman here. He put down his daughter, pointed at the woman and said, "Crazy woman, get out!"

Xu Xuerui didn't dare to take a step forward. The man kicked and stomped Xu Xuerui into the house. The girl, under the man's protection, walked to the stairs downstairs to wait for her father.

"Daughter, go downstairs and wait for daddy first."

The girl wiped away her tears, held the handguard tightly, looked carefully at the steps, and rushed down step by step.

When the man saw that his daughter was almost far away, he also went downstairs.

Xu Xuerui went into the house where she was alone, squatted at the door, and began to blame herself for no reason: Why didn't I go out to look for my daughter so late at night, or call her, so that I could see her. My daughter was on the rooftop, and she knew her daughter was on the rooftop. If I had gone to find her at that time, she would not have jumped off the building.

On a summer afternoon, the students all went to school and the park for strolls was very quiet. There was no noise downstairs either. There were no curtains on the windows and the sunlight shone in unrestrainedly, making the entire room very bright.

Xu Xuerui looked at the light on the floor and thought of the classroom in the beautiful afternoon. That was her most carefree time. She didn't expect that time passed so quickly. She was no longer the little girl she used to be. How was that lovely playmate? The road she walked with her playmate was still in her mind. She really wanted time to slow down.

This is Xu Ranqing's room. That day, she opened the child's curtains, hoping that the child would see the light, because light can heal everything.

After today, Xu Xuerui plans to lock this room. Life must go on, and she will continue to live her life even without her daughter.

Xu Xuerui walked to the windowsill and looked at the plants her daughter had grown, bathing in the sun and swaying in the wind.

These plants will also be moved to my daughter's room.

After cleaning the windowsill, she also had to clean the living room, as well as her room, kitchen, and bathroom. Xu Xuerui turned them all into a mess.

Xu Xuerui packed all the things related to her daughter into her room. After a while, she became sleepy and fell asleep on the sofa.

When I woke up, it was dark. There was no sunlight in the room, only the camouflage lights of the high-rise buildings in the distance shining through the glass.

Xu Xuerui fumbled to turn on the light in the living room. After turning on the light, the room was silent, without the usual noise.

She came to her daughter's room and said gently, "Little sister, don't be angry with your mother, come out and eat."

She thought her daughter was just angry for a moment and went back to her room to sleep.

Xu Xuerui's room has no windows, so she relies on the ringtone set by her cell phone to wake up.

Early in the morning, Xu Xuerui was awakened by the ringing of her cell phone. It was seven o'clock in the morning and her room was pitch black. She turned on the light and found the switch.

She knocked on her daughter's door out of habit and went to wash up alone. When it was time, she knocked again: "Little sister, get up. You'll be late for class."

There was no sound in the room. After calming down, Xu Xuerui sat on the floor and thought: "My daughter is gone. She is not here."

For five years, Xu Xuerui has been troubled by this matter. She deleted all the contact information of her relatives, including her parents. She thought she could have a home, but now she has no home and nothing.

Five years later, Xu Xuerui woke up one morning and felt much better. In her dream, she saw her daughter, who asked her to come and see her. This was the only thing Xu Xuerui could remember. She tidied herself up to prepare for her daughter's tomb.

On the way, she went to the supermarket to buy some of her daughter's favorite food and then went to the flower shop to buy a bouquet of flowers.

Time passed so quickly that she thought her daughter had died yesterday.

She also forgot where her daughter's tombstone was. She didn't remember the location at the time, she just remembered that it was in a certain row.

Xu Xuerui looked at the tombstones one by one, and finally found her daughter's tombstone in a place with good lighting.

She didn't dare to face her daughter, because as soon as she saw her daughter, they would inevitably quarrel. She vaguely remembered that her daughter asked her a few questions: Why did you let me be born? What are your expectations for me? Do you love me? What is the meaning of my life?

Xu Xuerui leaned against her daughter's tombstone and began to answer her daughter's questions.

"Daughter, in our minds, if a woman doesn't get married, she will be laughed at by the neighbors. There's nothing we can do about it. Mom got married to escape from that home, and after getting married, she had to have children. This is unavoidable."

"Daughter, I love you very much. I want to make a lot of money to make you happy, but I can't. My expectation for you is that you can grow up happily. I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

"Finally, it's about the meaning of your life. In fact, that's what you should be looking for. Mom can't answer you, but the meaning of mom's life is for you. But now you're not here, so mom should go find her own meaning."

Xu Xuerui stroked her daughter's tombstone and said, "Daughter, it must be painful to jump from such a high building! Mommy will hug you."

"I bought this place with the money I was going to give you for college. I wonder if you like it."

"I'm sorry, Mom has done a lot of wrong things in the past, but please forgive me, okay?"

Xu Xuerui took out the flower clips they had used to contact each other: "Mom has never been able to forgive herself because of the flower clip incident, so the first thing I did after I had the financial ability was to take you to buy the flower clips. I don't know if you have forgiven mom, but it's a pity that even if you say it now, I can't hear you. God! Please convey my apology to my child to my daughter!"

Xu Xuerui took a tissue and wiped her tears: "I'm sorry, Mom actually regrets giving birth to you and not giving you a good life. If we had money, we could pay your money, and you and your brother could grow up together, and he wouldn't bully you. I'm sorry for your brother, and even more sorry for you, my daughter."

Xu Xuerui picked up the wine she bought and started drinking: "Mom, I can't believe what happened back then. You two are my biological children. I don't know how to face this matter or how to solve it. I'm really sorry for you. I thought that after you have a brother, he will protect you."

Xu Xuerui burst into tears and then took another sip of wine: "I thought everything would go in the beautiful direction I thought, I really didn't know! My daughter! It was me who hurt you, I shouldn't have believed that having both a son and a daughter would bring happiness, it was me who hurt you! My daughter! It was mom who let you down, I didn't know, no, I just knew, I just knew, when you ambiguously said brother, I knew it, it was me who didn't want to believe it."

Xu Xuerui opened her eyes, looked at the sunset in the distance and smiled: "The greatest courage I have in my life is to take you away. I still remember the joy on your face at that time."

"Daughter, this is the last time I will come here to see you. When I come to see you again, I will bring your future sister to see you. I will definitely live the way you want to see. I promise that I will live until the end of my life, and then I will come to find you again."

Xu Xuerui placed the carnations she had prepared in front of her daughter's grave. When she left, she looked at the sunset in the distance. She would restart her life again.

On a sunny afternoon, Xu Xuerui packed her luggage and looked back before leaving. The room was as quiet as before. She decided to forget everything here and go to live in an unfamiliar city.

-

Shen Xingxian's schoolbag lay quietly on his bed. There was still half an hour before class time, and he could get to the classroom in time.

As soon as they arrived at the classroom, Diao Xia asked, "Shen Xingxian, you came so late, what did you do last night?"

Shen Xingxian glanced at the window and said, "Playing games."

Diao Xia exposed his lie: "You haven't been online these days."

"Maybe I was watching a movie when you called."

"what movie?"

Shen Xingxian casually mentioned a few movies he knew.

Just after coming out of the system, Shen Xingxian was thinking about what happened inside. When he was stabbed, he heard Xu Ranqing say that she actually regretted it, so what exactly caused her death?

The more he thought about it, the more strange it seemed. There were actually two systems on Blue Star. Could it be that Xu Ranqing was killed by another system? Shen Xingxian thought of that building to find out what was going on.

After the evening self-study was cancelled, Shen Xingxian had a lot more free time.

Shen Xingxian arrived at the gate of Xingfu Community, but unfortunately it was closed, so he could only enter through a small path.

After entering, Shen Xingxian passed by the place where the plush ball tree grew. There was an empty space there, which made Shen Xingxian a little scared. Who entered his brain and gave him that dream?

Let’s discuss this with them later!

The power has been out in the building for a long time, so it is a bit quiet and eerie. Every time you go up a floor, there are endless corridors at both ends.

After reaching the sixteenth floor, Shen Xingxian accelerated and climbed up to the top of the building.

The sound of vehicle horns can be heard clearly, and in the distance high-rise buildings with flashing neon lights are prosperous. The breeze adds a sense of loneliness to the place.

Shen Xingxian looked around and saw a small hole. He loved digging holes. When he was a child, he once dug a snake hole and almost died.

But there were no sticks or anything around, so he had to open his schoolbag, take off his book clips and dig the holes. It would have been fine if he hadn't dug them, but as soon as he did, the mice inside came out and ran around everywhere.

Shen Xingxian was so frightened that he quickly retreated until he reached the rusty fence. His heart was pounding, and he only calmed down when all the rats had escaped.

He stood up and looked down, just like Xu Ranqing did before. He seemed to know the cause of Xu Ranqing's death. This might be an accident. She was struggling between life and death. When she figured it out and was ready to leave, she couldn't go back.

Whether Xu Ranqing committed suicide or was murdered, it didn't matter to Xu Xuerui because her daughter was already dead.

Walking on the horse path on the way home, Shen Xingxian finally felt relieved. Every time he passed the sixteenth floor, he was afraid that Xu Xuerui would rush out and stab him.

Shen Xingxian accidentally looked across the street and saw that person was Xu Xuerui.

He saw the mother disappear into the distance with his own eyes. Shen Xingxian thought, let's not disturb her! She will find her own life.
