The blond boy looked at the wind chimes swinging back and forth on the window and shook his fleshy calf, as if he was bored, and as if he suddenly thought of something, he asked the silver-haired old man beside him: "Grandma, what do you say... …What kind of color will prayers and hopes be?"

"Well, if prayers and hopes have a color, I think it must be golden." The gray-haired old man touched the cat lying on his lap, and smiled kindly at the child beside him.

"Why?" The young child didn't understand why grandma could say 'it's golden' so definitely without any hesitation.

"Oh, why?" The old man deliberately dragged his tone, watching the expression on his little grandson's face with satisfaction becoming more and more curious.Then, like telling every story in the past, he said in that long and gentle tone: "This is a very long story."

The child drove the cat off with a smile, lay down on the old man's lap, and asked, "How long is it?"

"It's very long." The old man couldn't give the child an overly specific answer. All she could give was her feelings when she was still a child.

That kind of moment is as long as a lifetime, as distant as a world away, the desire and sadness for living.

It has been so long since that time, so long that she has already grown gray hair, and the old man's thoughts are in a trance for a while.She looked at the sunlight coming through the window, and once again recalled that night that was so dark that there were no stars, the warm and hot golden fire tore through the clouds in the sky, and burned wantonly until the whole world was ignited.

The collapsed and gloomy world flickered in the golden flames and was reborn.

There is also the warm temperature of the palm of the girl in a suit, the tactile sensation when it falls on the top of her head, and the deep voice.Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help laughing slightly, she patted her grandson on the shoulder, her eyes became softer, and said softly: "Grandma will tell you this story slowly and bit by bit. .”

"Until you grow up and become a responsible adult."



The city's power supply system had problems a long time ago, and I don't know when it started, and hot snacks could no longer be served in the oven.

Mom no longer calls Dad, and the TV has become a black box that cannot speak.

'Why don't you go to another city?' the girl once asked her mother.

She wants to go back to the old life, the forever warm and bright home, the TV where she can watch cartoons, and the food other than compressed biscuits.

If the current house can't do it... If I change to another place, can I return to my original life?

The girl couldn't help thinking this way.

'My poor Elsa, where do you think this is? The woman interrupted the child's fantasy, her voice was lower than usual, and there was a trace of undetectable pity and sadness in the girl's eyes.

"This is New York." I don't know if it's unconscious, or if it's too perfect to hide, but there is a hint of imperceptible indifference and superior arrogance in her emotions, and she added: "The center of the world."

"New York has become like this, and those congressmen are still avoiding important things. Now!? There is no news at all. Is this going to let all citizens wait to die?" In a violent mood, "Damn aliens, useless army!"

Finally, she said coldly: "Aisha, my daughter. New York has become like this, where else do you want to go?"

"This is New York, the center of the world." She repeated this sentence again, as if clinging to the last stubbornness and stubbornness.

An eleven or twelve-year-old girl instinctively disliked the emotion in her mother's eyes, although she couldn't tell why.

She thought about it, and replied to her mother with what a Chinese friend she met on Youtube said.

"—Wow, that sounds great, do you want to applaud you again?"

These words were like the sharpest needle, piercing the woman's anger fiercely.Her straight back collapsed in an instant, and she waved her hands wearily and said, "Forget it, what the hell am I talking about..."

"I'm sorry, Aisha." The woman stroked the girl's cheek. During this period of time, she had added a lot of fine wounds on her fingers, and the wounds had scabbed over, leaving slight bruises on Aisha's tender cheeks. Tingling.There was a layer of water in her lake-colored eyes, and she said hoarsely: "Mom shouldn't lose her temper with you."

Is mom sad?But...it doesn't seem to be sad?The girl was a little confused, and it took her a long time to understand that at that time, the emotion in her mother's eyes was helplessness, helplessness and pessimism about the status quo.

"This is something that a child of your age... shouldn't encounter." Mom's embrace was as warm as ever. She stroked the girl's blond hair and said softly, "I'm sorry, Mom didn't protect you well."

"Ah, by the way, there is nothing to eat at home." The woman stood up suddenly, she wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, turned around, leaving only Aisha a back view.

"—wait for mom to come back."

These were the last words Elsa heard from her mother, and the last time Elsa saw her.

Why... didn't you catch up and give her a hug at that time?The girl has been regretting it since that day, how great it would be if she caught up with her at that time...

The mother never came back. Later, she found her body. The wound was man-made... To some extent, it may be that human beings are the most dangerous.

No matter when, there is no shortage of people like that, who stink like rats in the gutter, and whose dirty mind can never see the light.

Mother is gone, even if she is alone, Aisha still wants to live.

All living creatures instinctively reject death and yearn for light.

As long as you persevere, there must be a day when you can be saved, right?



"Let's go." Li Xiang hammered his shoulder, moved his shoulder joints, and stretched out his hand towards Alfred, "The purpose of attracting the other party's attention has been achieved, and the cruel words have been let go, now it's time to go back and see Let's see how things are prepared."

"Something?" Alfred looked confused.

"It's those gems." The corners of the girl's lips were raised slightly, raising an inscrutable arc, "Even if the master is an idiot who doesn't know anything, I believe that the others will always know."

"Too much!!" Alfred was extremely dissatisfied with the title 'idiot', he protested: "Please call me the number one hero in the world."

"Okay." The girl was extremely obedient, and responded according to the other party's intention: "So, do I have the honor to go back with the world's number one hero?"

Hey, I am really a good follower who will spoil the Master.Li Xiang sighed contentedly in her heart.

"But—" the girl changed the subject, looked towards the shadowy corner of the collapsed building not far away, and said in a hoarse voice, "Aren't you coming out yet? Keep looking at the little guy over here."

was discovered? ?No, it should not be possible.

Aisha covered her mouth and nose subconsciously and held her breath.

"It's you." In the blink of an eye, the girl walked step by step into the cave formed by the collapse. The moment she saw Aisha, her eyes lit up, "Huh, so it's a little girl."

"You...what do you want to do?" Aisha said nervously, clutching the corner of her dirty skirt, "I don't have anything to eat anymore."

"Come on." The girl with a very different personality from when she was a ruler, very simply exposed the girl's small thoughts, she rolled her eyes and said, "Did you see the battle just now?"

"I've noticed your breath from the very beginning." She touched the girl's dirty cheek with her fingertips, "It's not good to lie."

"Well, yes." The girl's lake-colored eyes stared coldly at the golden-eyed girl, and Aisha vented on herself: "So I saw your secret, and you want to kill me?"

"...Huh?" Lixiang was stunned, how did things happen to this point, or am I broken?

"You kill it." Aisha looked at the other party's still cold face, without any wavering eyes, and then thought of her overbearing fighting power before...

Maybe it was because the life after losing her mother was too exhausting. After walking day by day, she still couldn't see any hope, which made the girl more and more tired. Coupled with the trigger of this incident, she finally gave up on herself easily.

After saying that sentence, her mentality became faintly relaxed, and Aisha smiled at the girl with bright hair.

"If possible, can you kill me... less pain? I'm afraid of pain, really." Facing the girl's overly sincere lake-colored eyes, Li Xiang was silent for a moment, cleared his throat, and asked road:

"—When did I say I was going to kill you?"

"You won't kill me?" The relaxed feeling surrounding the girl suddenly disappeared with these words, and the beautiful lake-colored eyes were once again stained with a layer of shadow. She lowered her head, and her tone contained strong tired, "Whoa, that sounds awesome, do I need a clap?"

Unlike the previous conversations with my mother, it lost a bit of innocence and added a bit of sarcasm.

"You seem to be more sad, why?" The girl asked the other party, while slightly tilting her head, looking at Alfred who was standing beside her.

"You..." Al's sky-colored eyes were full of hesitation, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly became sad.

The night fell in his eyes, infecting the sky into a gloomy blue.

Obviously wanting to say more sarcasm and hurtful sentences, it is best to let that girl kill her.However, when Aisha saw those blue eyes through the lens, she hugged her knees and fell silent.

She found that under the gaze of those eyes, she couldn't say a single hurtful word.

She just hoped that the young man...wouldn't be so sad.

Alfred finally spoke with a weird atmosphere, and he asked the girl, "Why don't you want to live?" Why did you give up?Obviously... These countries endure the pain of being crushed, recast and crushed again and again anytime and anywhere.

The reason for not giving up after such pain is just that I want more people to live.

Live, come out of disaster, and laugh.

If, just say if.If the people in the country no longer want to live, then... as a country, why are they so persistent?

"Live... ah." The girl suddenly removed the thorns all over her body, revealing the softest inside. Lixiang and Al were caught off guard by the sudden change.

Aisha smiled brightly and innocently at a man and a woman standing outside the cave, and said, "Mom won't come back."

"Mom has golden wavy hair and the most beautiful green eyes." The girl rubbed her cheek with the back of her hand, "She used to be such a beautiful person... Even if she was strangled to death and lay on the dirty ground , she is still so beautiful."

Aisha's voice was extremely soft and gentle, as if frightening the woman sleeping in the other side. Different from the gentle tone, her eyes were so bright and firm, as if they were burning hot, she said firmly: "Beautiful girl, even if No matter how embarrassing she is, she is still beautiful. Just like my mother, no matter whether there are more and more wounds on her fingertips or a tired spirit, even if she dies, she is still in my heart..."

The girl was still crying after all, big tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and fell on the ground, soaking the dust, which gradually poured into her chest, making her eyes no longer bright, and her heart dying like ashes.

The sadness that had been suppressed for a long time finally broke out.The girl bit her lower lip firmly, and squeezed out the words she wanted to say from the cracks of her lips: "Even if she dies, she is still the most beautiful girl in my heart."

"...I'm so tired." Aisha closed her eyes and said softly, "Do you know?"

"This country has... abandoned us." The crisp ending sounds, as if if she speaks like this, she will still be the child who can hide in her mother's arms.

She looks like the replica of a woman on the last day.

The same, imperceptible indifference, and the unpleasant condescending arrogance, with the same expression, said the same words:

"—this is New York, the center of the world."

"New York has become like this, what are those congressmen doing?" The girl continued coldly: "Useless army, bloody aliens."

"Since the country has abandoned us, it doesn't make any difference if one day is added or one day is missing, right? It's about the issue of surviving."

"No...I..." Alfred, who once publicized his ideas in front of many countries and threatened that he was the hero who saved the world, couldn't help but take two steps back when faced with a little girl's words.

I... didn't give up on you guys.

Lixiang, who had been paying attention to Alfred all the time, looked at his master's increasingly bleak gaze, and took the initiative to put his arms around Alfred's shoulder and patted it lightly.

"You are wrong." She said to Aisha: "This country has not abandoned you, nor has it abandoned you."

"Even though it hurts a lot, he is still insisting on continuing this country." The girl's voice suddenly increased, and she said loudly: "Stand up!"

"As long as you are here, this country will never fall, never lose its spine, never give up on you."

"If you need something to support you so that you can continue to live." The girl smiled frivolously, but her golden eyes were determined, as sharp as the light of a knife drawn out of its sheath.

"—then look at me, I am strong, so strong that I will never fall."

"I am strong." She repeated again: "I am strong enough to take everything back for you."

"Is that enough?"

The girl who is too dazzling makes Aisha yearn for it, and she hopes that one day, she can live as firm and dazzling as this girl.

The girl wiped away the remaining tears on her cheeks, and said in a low voice, "Enough is enough."

"Ah." The girl nodded impatiently, "That's it, the people and the country are mutual."

"No matter what happens now, the future will definitely get better and better." She suddenly thought of something, chuckled, and said to the girl, "Since you are so free, then, I will give you a task."

"You have to look at me, keep looking at me."

"Watch me take back everything for you, watch me drive away the 'fucking aliens' for you. At the same time, you have to tell my story to others." The girl's face was paralyzed again, "The most important thing Definitely, definitely, don't forget me."

"Even if it's 'Fujimaru Tachika', there is always a moment that you want to be remembered."

Restoring the singularity again and again, bringing the world back on track again and again.

Meet new people again and again, and be forgotten by people you know again and again.

The exploits of a girl are not remembered, not praised...forgotten.It's like this every time, after the singularity is fixed, no one will remember what ever happened.

Although I have long been used to it, but... There are always such thoughts in my mind once or twice.

It would be great if I could not be forgotten once, but be remembered, even if... there is only one person.

"—Okay." Aisha's voice brought back the girl's thoughts. The girl took a step forward and grabbed Lixiang's clothes, "This is our agreement."

"Yeah." When the head was hot, he said something terrible, and after the heat was over, it was a joke.The girl smiled and shook her head, thinking to herself, just take it as a thought for the little girl.

How is it possible to be remembered?

Although she didn't care, she still said to Aisha: "This is an agreement."

Afterwards, Lixiang sighed slightly as she felt the girl following her behind her.

Went out for a while, got into a fight, and picked up a little girl.

Li Xiang seemed to have seen how exciting the face of that British gentleman would be.

The author has something to say: After reading the news...that Typhoon Mangkhut.

I don’t know if there are any little angels from Guangdong. I’m so worried. If so, please be careful, the typhoon is terrible.

Hmm....I really hope that the mysterious barrier can bounce off the typhoon.
