Chinese New Year Reunion Chapter

Its ninety thousand things are empty, only the ashes can glimpse the new life

The things that really existed in the memory, the imprints left behind, all disappeared.

Stars, dresses, Cecilia flowers, lin bells, jade hairpins, golden feathers, small rice crackers, paintings...

It's all gone.

Even Paimon, who was always by your side, is gone.

It's just like……

... like a "dream".

After that day, it was as if nothing had happened.Parents said, when you came back that day, you suddenly insisted on going to the street to buy new year’s goods. They were worried about you, so they asked Uncle Wei to take care of you; I didn't take anything, my face was ugly, and I almost fainted at that time.

You start to pin your hopes on that little camera that records your countless memories.But when you exported all the photos and rummaged through them one by one with the last hope, you only found the scenery you took alone; even if it was your impressive group photo, there was only your big smile on it.

Everyone's existence seems to be erased.

Or……

...Everything, from the very beginning, didn't exist?

As New Year's Eve approaches, the surrounding atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger.The family didn't mind that you didn't buy anything that night, and happily took you out to buy new year's goods.

……

"Under such circumstances, those relatives outside will definitely not be able to celebrate the New Year together this time." Mom sighed, "At least we were together last year."

Dad patted her on the shoulder: "Okay, it was a coincidence last year! Look at the new additions every day, let's not move around."

"That's right," my mother said after a pause, "I called my parents in the past few days, and said that my father's condition is still good, and I can go and have a look. However, there are restrictions on the current prevention and control, and two people can be admitted at one time."

"Okay, let's go in the afternoon." Dad rubbed the top of your head, as if you were a child, "You stay at home."

You spent the morning sitting in a daze in your room.Have you ever thought about whether you can ask a friend for help, but this is too outrageous...

what should you say

I played a game and met a lot of people in it.

One day, they stepped out and entered the real world.

Then, now they're gone again without leaving me a trace?

I'm afraid no matter who heard it, they would laugh out loud, or say "Are you serious", or "Don't be ridiculous, today is not April Fool's Day", and maybe they will seriously suggest you to see a doctor, I'm afraid it's not because of the work pressure that I'm bewildered.

You have to admit the fact—

—Maybe, you really should see a psychiatrist.

In the final analysis, back to the beginning of everything, the first time you saw Chen Ge Pot, it was when you stayed up late for two consecutive weeks to catch up on a project; every time you saw everyone, it was when you needed them most when……

"Maybe it's due to some kind of stress mechanism," the psychological counselor I met before replied after reading your help message that omitted many key details, "Look, don't there often be such examples? Because it is difficult to accept A certain reality, psychologically automatically differentiated into a personality..."

"Of course, it's also possible that the pressure of life is a bit high. In short, it's good to observe the situation recently. You can go outdoors more, don't recall your wrong memories for the time being, and breathe more fresh air. choice."

You feel so cold, but after putting on a thick down jacket, you feel so hot and irritable.Memories are constantly questioned, repeated, emphasized, intertwined haphazardly—

—Obviously, it should have happened.

What exactly was the shadow cut off at that time?

What exactly did you see?

People say "after it's all over"...

In the end what happened?

Or……

——"Nothing happened"...?

You shook your head irritably, trying to let yourself go for a while.After hesitating for a few seconds, you hung up your down jacket and went out in your coat.

Maybe the moderate cold can refresh the brain a bit.

You walked out of the house aimlessly, looking around in a daze at the scenery around you.

On that trip back home, you kept imagining what it would be like to be together.You have imagined introducing this place to your friends, you have imagined that Mr. Zhongli will study a rock curiously; In the familiar and unfamiliar streets, everyone in Mond can enjoy the atmosphere of the Spring Festival, and people in Daozuma will see another kind of eternity...

You thought it would be like this.

The ground felt soft to the touch.You subconsciously raised your head and looked around, seeing dead branches everywhere.

Unknowingly, you have unconsciously returned to this place——

——You haven’t left your hometown to go to another city in the past. At that time, you also had troubles exclusive to that age.Unsatisfactory grades, failed to buy the picture book I wanted, no pocket money to buy snacks, and quarrels with good friends...

Then, you will come here.This is indeed a public area, at the southernmost end of the community you live in.Because no one comes, you call it your "secret base" and often rest and read under the tree.

In spring, these dead branches will be full of budding flower buds.When it is in full bloom, the magnolia trees are full of trees, like the swollen feathers of pigeons. When the wind blows, they will flutter and fall to the ground, with blooming petals everywhere.

yes……

... This is the magnolia tree.

You thought you just couldn't see the magnolia tree blooming anymore.

It's just that I didn't expect that even the people who wanted to see flowers together at that time can't see them now.

Suddenly, you felt a cold touch on your cheek.You bounced up subconsciously and turned your head, shouting in surprise: "Pimon—"

...with nothing around.

In the distance, we can only see the red lanterns hanging on the tree opposite, swaying in the wind, and the snow falling from the calm sky.

"It turned out to be snowing..."

You forced a smile, and slowly sat back on the wooden chair under the magnolia tree.

The people, things, and things around you, even including you, have changed too much in these years.The only things staying here are magnolia trees, wooden chairs, and those sealed dreams.

"...Snow, it's so beautiful."

In the evening, the fine snow rustled and fell silently.You start to recall the countless dusks and snow scenes you have spent together, the troubles you have had together, the people you have met together, the goals you have achieved together...

The scenery in front of you is gradually blurred, and you can't tell whether it is the melted snow or the tears of farewell that pass through the corners of your eyes.The memory is cut into fragments, which is obviously very beautiful, but just by looking at it, you will feel the pain of being cut.

Or maybe you really are just...too tired.

Maybe, just sleep for a while.

When the snow stops and the dream wakes up, it can be regarded as...

You suddenly heard a low, somewhat helpless sigh coming from your ear.Afterwards, you felt your body sink, as if someone was gently putting on the down jacket for you, and then carefully buttoned it for you.

so warm...

... no, no!

You jerk your eyes open to meet eyes as blue as cornflower petals.

"...Abedo?"

A look of sadness flashed across Abedo's fair face, and his eyes, which had been calm until now, were trembling slightly at this moment.He raised his right hand slightly, and a Yanghua containing the power injected by everyone was condensed in the palm of his hand.

He could sense the power of life flowing in the tree in front of him.

This is the magnolia tree she once mentioned.

He devoted his entire life to alchemy, and finally let him cut off the last "lock" with his own hands.

"Sorry." It was difficult for him to maintain his usual calmness in his voice, "...to make you feel sad."

This is the best way for her.

It was also... the best arrangement they could think of.

"alchemy……"

Abedo muttered to himself, a self-deprecating smile curled up on the corner of his mouth.

"...It's really cruel."

——"Mr. Abedo, the research topic I mentioned before..." Sasuke ran over with a thick stack of research reports in his arms, "This is the area where I detected anomalous elements, and the index has exceeded the standard you gave Calculated and marked on it.”

He took the research report and nodded while flipping through it: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"However, Mr. Abedo, what kind of research topic is this calculation method for?" Granu had already taken out his notebook for recording, and looked at him curiously, "Is it because the textbook hasn't covered it yet?"

But she didn't get the answer she wanted.After turning a page, Abedo's face suddenly became much more serious, and he just said apologetically to her, "I will tell her a more rigorous answer when the research has made preliminary progress", and then left in a hurry with a look on his face.

Abedo discovered the "door".

It is a door leading to countless unknowns.

He yearns for the "unknown", because he may be able to find the meaning he has been looking for all his life.

But the familiar Xinghai atmosphere behind this door prevented him from acting rashly.

It was also that breath, after he clearly knew how dangerous it would be for him to continue to explore this matter, he still did it.

because……

...he wanted to protect her.

"It really did appear." Wendy put away her usual smile, "That happened a long time ago... I shouldn't have explored it."

"If "she" knew about it, she would definitely not let it go. "Ying looked at Abedo coldly, "I advise you, don't open it. "

"Kage, don't you understand?" Yae Kamito interrupted, "This door does not belong to "her". "

"You mean..." Ying frowned.

"'She' can do this to this world, why can't she do similar things to other worlds? " Yae Shenzi raised his eyebrows.

"...No, the risk is too great." Shadow closed his eyes, "Furthermore, this door was detected. It has existed here for thousands of years, and "she" didn't cast a glance.Putting it there is the safest decision. "

"This door only appeared recently." Abedo stated calmly, "I made a similar inference because of the frequent occurrence of elemental anomalies. Please ask Grano to investigate at several anomalous points."

"This is the best time for us to get to know 'her' . . . "

"...No." Ying struggled in his eyes, "I can't bet the whole rice wife as a rebellion."

"It doesn't have to be like this." Zhongli, who had been silent all this time, said slowly, "At the beginning, in response to our strong desire, we each separated a ray of spirit to accompany that traveler in another world. She carried something called "Dust" song pot".With the help of immortal power, he created an independent cave.If the door is placed here, although it cannot completely prevent detection, it can also play a role of "covering". "

"But the traveler isn't here right now?" Wendy frowned, "Except for the owner of the Dust Song Pot, we can't freely enter and exit the Dust Song Pot."

"I remember Traveler's Dust Song Pot, which was entrusted to someone else for safekeeping..."

"I."

A still childish voice came, and Paimon flew out from behind them, and his eyes with tiny stars were filled with firmness: "I can help you."

The crowd watched her silently for a moment.In the end, Ying, who had been denying this plan all this time, sighed first: "If that's the case, then fine. Son of God, gather everyone and divide their souls into the pot."

Zhong Li also stood up and nodded slightly to them: "I will go to Gechenlang City to discuss the specific plan."

Wendy smiled at them encouragingly and waved her hand: "Go forward with courage, Poetry and Wind will remember all of this."

Abedo lowered his eyes and looked at Paimon who had been following her.

"Abedo, is it because of curiosity?" After a period of silence, Paimon suddenly said, "This matter is no longer the scope of research, and you can withdraw completely."

Abedo paused slightly before leaving, and after a while he smiled lightly: "I want to ask you this question more than my answer. How about..." He turned his head, and a sharp gleam flashed across his eyes. Look, "In the whole thing, your situation is the most dangerous, right?"

He didn't expect her answer, but when he turned around to leave, he saw Paimon showing a big and bright smile:

"Because Paimon is a traveler's best partner."

"So, I want to protect her."

Their plan worked.He pushed the door open, like she pushed the door to Teyvat for a long, long time.With the power of Zhongli, the tunnel was stabilized; with the power of mortals, the "chain" involved in this "lock" was explored; with the power of Wendy, the dangerous wind was calmed down; and the power of shadow, He tried his best to block "her" line of sight.

The final research was done, and he left her with the last piece of the puzzle.

Their plan finally succeeded.

The consciousness of "her" was blocked, and the "will" formed by pure power was cut off by the shadow and the "lock".

Everything is set back on track, except for...

Abedo was asked to do countless delicate experiments, but he was never afraid.Because alchemy creations have no emotions and cannot make mistakes.

But now, his hands are constantly shaking.

This is the ending he wrote for her, and it is also the ending he wrote for himself.

He is the best candidate.He understands the power of life in another world, and also understands what "memory" is——

——Her memory, the bond between her and them, is the last "chain".

Her world is already safe, and she has no obligation to bear the burden that does not belong to her for their selfishness.

——"Abedo..."

The girl's voice was small but clear in the silent snow.

"Everyone……"

Tears streamed down the side of her face.

"……do not leave me……"

she begged.

Abedo froze.

"Wake up." He lost the reason and calmness he was proud of, grabbed her shoulders and shook, his blue eyes were full of anger, "Did you hear what I said? You Do you understand what such a choice means?"

"This means that you have to bear the pressure brought by this secret. We are aliens here, don't you want to give up the most precious ordinary life to bear the pressure of being an "alien"—"

"I heard."

The girl in front of her suddenly raised her head, her tear-free eyes shone with determination.

"You are not alien—"

She showed a big smile.

"—You are my important friends."
