Help, I've become a paper man

As soon as Song Yi received the news, he contacted Ying Rushi and made an internal shift adjustment from Chenxing. Anyway, most of the people on the front line are Stardust, so it is more reliable to ask this person for help.

Ying Rushi did not disappoint people. After agreeing to the appointment, Song Yi received a notice that "you will make up the class the day after tomorrow" before he even finished his meal.

Song Yi expressed his thanks readily, but when asked the reason, he immediately shut his mouth and didn't say another word.

He witnessed with his own eyes the enthusiasm of everyone that day. The fact that the carrier pigeon was leaving was specifically notified to him because of an agreement and also out of friendship.

It may not be because of him, it may also be because of Yan Changyue.

But no matter what, he couldn't just leak it out as soon as he walked out the door.

Privacy is important.

He didn't want to say, and Ying Ru didn't ask. After a simple farewell, they each had their own jobs, said goodbye on the spot, and went in different directions.

Song Yi followed the location left by the carrier pigeon in the letter and searched for it.

There were not many people on the road, and she calculated the time well, just in time for her work break.

The last round of Stardust has just set out, and the next round has not yet started.

When Song Yi arrived, he saw the other person at a glance. The girl was standing under the wall. When the wind blew over, her cloak was lifted and even her ponytail was shaking.

A few days ago, she still looked sick, but now when we met again, the sickness had completely disappeared and she looked more relaxed.

"You're here." The carrier pigeon said, waving its arms at him. Not only did it stand up straight, but it also turned around and was about to leave as it spoke.

It's a complete "say goodbye, just say goodbye" attitude.

Song Yi subconsciously said: "Where are you going? It's not safe to go alone... I'll walk you part of the way."

He was halfway through his words when he realized something was wrong and changed the content midway without abandoning the meaning.

Just keep a slight distance in the "escort".

The pigeon replied: "Don't worry, there are dangers all the way. I am walking in it and adapting to it."

It was an explanation and also a comfort. She walked forward, and the light falling on the girl's body made her look tall and majestic.

Song Yi touched the tip of his nose and was not rejected, so he continued to follow the other party.

Because at this moment, he realized that no matter what the other party said, he had to send him off.

Just for my own curiosity.

He suddenly understood from the words of the carrier pigeon that the carrier pigeon was observing Stardust and watching their fight, and he was also observing everyone.

In order to record, the carrier pigeon is more like... in a strange world, imitating the posture of the indigenous people, wanting to get closer to everyone.

The first person Song Yi met when he first came into contact with the world was Yan Changyue.

After that, he followed Yan Changyue, and the people he came into contact with were either Sui Yuesheng or other "bosses".

But when he left Yan Changyue and her network of relationships, he experienced another extreme.

One type is striving for wealth, and the other type is striving for life.

He was in the middle of it, interacting with two types of people with different abilities, and he never noticed it, but the foundation had been established from the very beginning.

This one, like the Pigeon one, is different.

She doesn't risk her life for people or stars, nor does she take life for anyone.

If he had to describe it, Song Yi racked his brains and the only word that came to his mind was "self".

Carrier pigeons also have goals and ideals. They are not grand or tough, but more like "what you want to do" and what you do.

Not as persistent as Yan Changyue, not as philanthropic as Ling Zhi, and not even as obsessed as Zhigui.

When Song Yi realized it, he still felt... shocked.

Before this, Yan Changyue had said it, Ying Rushi had also said it, and countless people and Xingchen had told him time and again:

“You take on the world and you make choices.”

It seemed as if an invisible dividing line had been drawn under his feet.

On one side are humans, and on the other side are stardust. He can either stand with Yan Changyue or with Zhigui. If he really doesn't want to, he will still stand in the middle, which is closer to Ling Zhi's idea.

Until the carrier pigeon showed up.

She is strong and confident. She does not depend on others, does not believe in any one side, and does not worry about her identity.

Whether it is stardust or human, there is no difference in her eyes.

The existence of the carrier pigeon seems to be telling Song Yi: "You are wrong. Don't worry or be confused. You can just be yourself."

Song Yi followed her and continued to move forward. His thoughts never stopped. Monsters were constantly refreshing, and they were bound to encounter them as they passed by.

The two of them didn't communicate, but still cooperated well, killing as they walked. Even though there was no dialogue, it didn't seem awkward.

There must be a reason why Song Yi took the initiative to escort them. He didn't say it, and the pigeon didn't think about it too much. After a brief thought, she found the direction.

It's probably for information. Carrier pigeons encounter this kind of situation quite a lot, so it's not surprising.

And some public information, even if she doesn't say it, is spread among people.

The pigeon suddenly asked: "Do you know Jian Nuanyang?"

This familiar name, coming from a distant memory, appeared again, and Song Yi's head paused.

He did not feel strange, and his memory was still flashing. He recalled what the other party said in the Duke's copy, and the two people from Chenxing took turns to use this person as an example when persuading him...

"Remember...what happened to her?"

When Song Yi asked this question, what he was thinking in his head was "This person looks neutral, is he going to criticize Yan Changyue too?" He subconsciously focused his mind and listened attentively to the answer.

The pigeon did not elaborate on the story, but just smiled and shook his head, commenting: "It's great that there are still people in the world who remember her."

Now it was Song Yi's turn to be confused.

He pressed on: "So, she also...sacrificed?"

The pigeon nodded first, then shook his head again and replied, "I guess so. You can think of it this way. After all, she probably didn't want too many people to know about her death."

"After years of imprisonment, I was able to be saved because of the coming of purgatory, but it's just that things don't go as planned, alas."

The carrier pigeon sighed and shook his head, waving the staff in his hand straight away, pushing away the monsters that were approaching, and it had no effect on his progress or his lamentations.

But the topic was interrupted here. Song Yi was extremely anxious. He looked at her while typing, anticipating her next words.

No need to wait for a few seconds, the pigeon continued: "Physically speaking, they are free, but what is more terrifying is the spiritual predicament they are in."

"I didn't just happen to pass by. After Purgatory appeared, as soon as I received relevant information, I went to look for them."

"So, I was able to deal with her sister together with Jian Nuanyang at the beginning."

"To be honest, I met her in a dungeon. We usually communicated with each other in dungeons. We have never communicated with each other in private."

Speaking of this, Song Yi also remembered that when he wanted to contact the other party, he was directly rejected. He was curious about the specific reason at the time, but looking at the expression of the carrier pigeon, he had a bad feeling.

Just as he thought, when the pigeons spoke again, they fluently described...their lives of being "abandoned".

It's not just personal freedom, but also other rights and interests, including Jian Nuanyang's system. Someone will also check it specifically to make sure she does not resist and will not abandon her sister and run away.

Not to mention food, clothing, housing and transportation, which are almost at the limit, barely allowing them to survive.

Song Yi felt a chill down his spine just from listening to it, but the next moment, the carrier pigeon changed the subject and said:

"My sister had just been rescued and was still in a state of panic. She also had mental problems. She clearly expressed resistance to my presence and was even willing to hurt herself."

"To ensure her safety, most of the time, I would meet Jian Nuanyang after she falls asleep, but this is not good either. Occasionally, she would catch me."

"At that time, her mood was even worse. Later, in order to escape from the monsters, we needed to find a camp and temporarily live there."

"At that time, Jian Nuanyang suggested that I go first and look for her and my sister. After I left, she could protect my sister on her own, which was no problem."
