[Cunning and careful. ----】

【*100*】

[Target person, cunning Shenye. 】

[...he ending has been achieved. 】

[Number of forced escapes from the world: 1.Cumulative he times: 2. 】

【...The cumulative number of rule violations: 3 times. 】

[The reward and punishment mechanism is forced to open. 】

[Now, the final settlement will be carried out...]

[Now, the final settlement will be carried out...]

【...The countdown to leaving the world begins. 】

Tang Xiaodou listened to the voice in his head in a daze, and suddenly his mind was filled with great fear, and he subconsciously held Qiao Niu's hand tightly.

Why did you achieve the cunning he?Without any warning—

But she has no room to think anymore, she can only think and hear the "judgment" issued by the voice in her mind.

She failed.

Accumulated two he's, plus one violation penalty counted as forced to leave the world - a total of three violations, she is about to be truly obliterated.

Just like every time she left the world before, she felt that her consciousness was being pulled away, and her body was slowly becoming less like her own.

The cold countdown continued in her ears, and she tried to open her eyes in fear, wanting to take a look at the cunning around her.

But because his eyes were too stimulated by the strong light, his vision was still blurred, and he couldn't see the appearance of Qiao Nie clearly, only the outline of his figure could be vaguely recognized.

The five senses that were slowly disappearing made the temperature between the two clasped hands gradually fade away.

At the last moment, in the midst of her desperation and fear, amidst the knowledge that she was about to lose all knowledge, a burst of unexpected and peaceful sadness suddenly appeared in her.

That was in addition to the reluctance to give up where she came from at this time, the reluctance to him that she hadn't realized before.

…………

The body seemed to be hollowed out and then stuffed with cotton wool, weak and powerless, and even the thoughts were wandering and unclear.

Tang Xiaodou figured out some clues in his sleeping consciousness, and he felt that he had not completely "disappeared".

In this frozen state, she suddenly heard the voice of n'.

[Xiaodou, long time no see. 】

All the chaos was broken by this sound, and after being fragmented, another scene appeared brightly; the gilded spiral staircase, the dome splashed with light, the hovering bookshelf, and thousands of lights and shadows spread out.

She floats in the corridor.

She gradually regained her "body"; then her limbs became conscious, and she could "see" and "feel".

She lowered her head, and with this movement, her hair slowly floated away like seaweed, and a few strands floated in front of her eyes, blocking her vision.Stretching out his hand to brush it away, he saw that the scar on the back of his hand was still——

She returned to Shilang in the form of "Tsururume Rin" in the last world, just like every time she left the world in the past.

[You are only one step away from going home, but you have reached the last he. 】n' said again.

She woke up because of this sentence, and said hoarsely: "I don't understand."

[Under the premise of the collapse of the rules in the last world, it is not surprising that there will be any developments. 】n''s tone contained a hint of regret. [But no matter how many 'impossibles' appear, this world is always affected by your will.It doesn't matter whether it's people who don't belong to 'here' appearing in the world, or 'he' who is not the target of the capture... But, I probably know the reason why the last he suddenly appeared. 】

[Just like you said, 'love others before your own feelings', you would rather risk your life to protect the other party... Only at this level of sacrifice can you really understand it?By this time, I should tell you the answer to the mystery...]

【...Because you clearly fell in love with the target of the attack, so you have this kind of judgment outside the rules. 】

[Once you understand this mood, the game can be perfectly cleared. 】

[This is the real condition. 】

Hearing this sentence, Xiaodou raised her head reflexively and wanted to "look" at n', but then realized that she couldn't see the other party—n''s voice was far and near, and she couldn't judge the source of the sound. ——Her eyes were slightly fixed, looking in vain at the messy hair floating in front of her, her mind was in chaos. "What do you mean by clearing the customs? So the 'conditions' you told me are all false from the beginning to the end? You—"

[My mission has been completed. 】n' interrupted her, 【Xiaodou...】

n' paused after calling her name.

Suddenly, there were fragmentary rustling sounds from the inside to the outside of the corridor, and all the books on the bookshelf slowly floated up.

【Congratulations, you can go home now. 】

After the words fell, Xiaodou couldn't digest the meaning of this sentence for a while.

The noise of the books bumping against the brackets became louder and louder, and the entire time corridor vibrated slightly. The vortex-like clusters of golden energy rolled one book after another, hovering and spread out above the head.

The voice of n' echoed in the gradually violent wind current in the time corridor, and the entire time corridor was gradually swallowed up by the radiant glare.

After such a long time, I waited for such an answer——

Xiaodou's pupils constricted, and she opened and closed her lips to ask something, but found that she could no longer make a sound.

All the past memories quickly flashed back in her mind, and she watched her body disintegrating under the strong light in disbelief.

If so, was the purpose of pulling her in from the beginning just so simple?

The trembling numbness poured into the chest from the limbs, and Xiaodou couldn't tell what it felt like now.

It's like walking around in a maze for most of the time, so long that I have become another person. When I finally found the exit, I thought I was back to the place I came from, but found that I walked into another maze .

【So, this is the last time we 'meet', Xiaodou. 】

[Relax, it's time to go home. 】

……

She seemed to be having a long dream.

The fatigue accumulated over the years was gently taken away in the dream, leaving only a sense of relaxation with nowhere to come and nowhere to go.

A gentle gleam of light appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness, illuminating the darkness layer by layer.The chest seemed to be soaked in warm water, steaming with melting heat.

Outside voices gradually appeared in the haze.There are birdsong, the sound of leaves, and faint human voices.An increasingly rich orange-red color permeated the closed eyes, probably because it was dawn and the sunlight outside was shining directly on the eyelids.

Xiaodou slowly woke up, but did not open his eyes.She remained motionless and continued to listen to the increasingly clear sounds around her.

She felt that her arms were padded under her cheeks, and she felt a little numb.

The voice behind her repeated what she had just heard: "Erdouzi?"

She waited for him to call her for the third time before she dared to open her eyes slowly, as cautiously as if she was performing some ritual.It's just that as soon as the eyelids opened, the scene in front of him was only clear for a moment, and then it was blurred by tears.

The computer screen has entered a dormant state, and the breathing light in the lower right corner slowly flickers on and off, at the same rhythm as the light on the keyboard that is also dormant.Cotton candy-like clouds of mist are rolling in the electronic weather gun placed next to the screen, indicating that the weather is fine and sunny.

"Tsk, you haven't woken up yet?" The voice behind said again, and then a hand pushed her head. "Hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face, play this broken game and sleep in front of the computer all night, it's really you."

Hearing this, she turned her head with tears all over her face.

A young man with a slender figure and delicate eyebrows, who resembled her by seven or eight, stood behind her yawning again and again. He closed his half-opened mouth.

"Oh, my ancestors..." His tepid tone tensed up without a trace, "What's the matter, what kind of golden beans are you dropping?"

Xiaodou opened his mouth, but the first thing that came out was not a crying sound, but a sticky laugh.She couldn't stop laughing, she was crying while laughing, she reached out and hugged the person in front of her, buried her face in the other person's stomach, the muffled laughter stopped, and finally said the first whole word.

--"elder brother."

Tang Dou stood there, full of doubts, and the hand on her head didn't know what to do, so he patted it: "... Xiaotang Dou? Are you okay?"

Her arms around him tightened suddenly, and her whole body trembled. "Dou Da Tang," she choked and her throat became greasy, "I thought I'd never see you again. Are you...are you real?"

Tang Dou Daou still maintained a half-bent posture, standing or sitting or sticking there, as if completely dazed.Xiaodou was immersed in his scorched inner world, and while laughing, his eyes burst into tears. He didn't say a word, as if he knew everything, and as if he didn't know anything, he stroked patiently after a while. He picked up her stupid hair, stubble after stubble, as if waiting for her to vent.

Tang Xiaodou felt that the time she had been away for so many years, it seemed that spending the same time at home crying all of them would not be worth it.

……

In the end, Tang Xiaodou didn't spend the same amount of time crying all the things that should be cried.

She was tired from crying after only two hours, but miraculously wanted to laugh again.

She regained her senses and wanted to say something to her brother, but found that she was no longer in front of the computer desk in the living room. Tang Douya had already sneaked her into the room while she was crying like no one else, but she couldn't remember it at all. this process.

She raised her head and stared at Tang Dou, and said in a voice broken from crying, "Dou Da Tang, I'm finally home."

Tang Doudou made the younger sister cry so hard that she almost broke, and sighed, "Little Tang, don't you have a game next week? You're going to start training tomorrow, right? If you think about the business, you won't be stupid. "

Xiaodou said: "I won't go, what day is it today, I miss you, you can stay with me for two days."

As she spoke in a daze, she was surprised that she could still say a whole sentence under such circumstances.

"No, no, unless you retire. Today is February 2th. What do you miss me, what do you miss me..." Tang Dou Daou had no choice but to answer her confused question, but he didn't say "You and I" What do you think when I see you every day" or "We haven't seen each other for seven hours a night, what do you miss me", but say——

"We have to see each other every day from now on, what do you want me to do?"

This is her brother Tang Doudou.

Thinking of this, Xiaodou reached out and grabbed his sleeve, "I haven't seen you for a long time, of course I miss you."

Soybean stared at her for a while, and finally just let out a helpless "ah".

"Okay. I'm going to ask for leave now."

…………

Tang Xiaodou stayed at home with Tang Dou for half a month before calming down.

When it's over, life has to go on.After half a month of buffering, she moved back to her residence in the city center, and was ready to reintegrate into her original life.

When she took the first step out of the house, she thought it would be difficult, after all, she had been "away" much longer than her own original life.And this kind of thought that made her shudder every time she thought about it broke her courage to recall that experience.

——February 2th was the day she "left" and the day she came back.The reason why I remember it so clearly is because that game was bought by Xiaobai on the day it was released on Valentine’s Day—she had dreamed of Nanke Yimeng for decades, and it’s only been one night here, so nothing around her has changed. Competitive players in their heyday had a secondary school nickname called "Dou Shen".

Then she discovered that despite being away for so long and everything around her seemed strange, it didn't take long to find the familiarity whenever she picked up the pieces of her original life step by step.

It has been half a year since he returned from the base to his empty apartment to pack up and return to the place where Soybean lives.After Xiaodou stepped into the threshold of professional competition at the age of 15, he soon became famous and his life became better. He moved to the downtown area not long after, and this is the family building of the community where the two brothers and sisters first lived. I still live here for the convenience of work, and Xiaodou also comes here to live here for a while from time to time.

Both of them have a lot of affection for the old house. Now that Dou is on a business trip, Xiaodou gives his room key to the team's nanny aunt, and goes back to look at the old house by himself.

The final season is about to start, so after she came back, she packed up her batteries at home and went directly to the base to meet the intensive qualifiers and training camps, and she didn't even see her friends much.Returning to the arena is one of the ways for her to follow the doctor's advice, keep herself "busy" and adapt quickly. Coupled with spending time with her teammates every day, she can quickly regain her state in a special atmosphere.The base was boring for several months, with almost no contact with the outside world. Although the base had all the facilities, but because of the high intensity of training, she didn't even have time to touch the web browser. One phone call and it's over.Suddenly coming out of the base all the way back to the old town, she was still a little unaccustomed to the sunshine outside.

She slowed down and walked along the road she was accustomed to since she was a child. Along the way, there were some scenery that had not changed for many years: breakfast stalls, pet stores, newsstands, and old video rental stores.She stopped in front of the video rental store out of nostalgia and looked inside.The clerk was dozing off. Apart from CDs, it also sold books. There were no tomes. They were mostly youth novels and comics, mainly for middle school students nearby.

Seeing the comics on the bookshelf, she froze for a moment, then walked in after hesitating for a while.

In addition to the comics, there are also d-version CDs of all new works released in the past year on the shelf.She looked over one by one, but didn't find the one she was looking for.She didn't give up, and went to find another one, but still couldn't find it.

It's normal to not be able to find one or two, but she searched around and found that there were none of what she wanted.

The clerk, who was dozing off at some point, woke up and introduced several works that sold well behind her.She couldn't help but turn around and ask the ones she was looking for one by one. The other party looked blank and waved his hands and said that he hadn't heard of them all.

She couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat, and took out her phone to search quickly.

not a single one.

Those worlds that she clearly remembered, that she knew, that she experienced, were the only ones—without a trace, as if they had never existed.

Standing under the bright sun, her whole body was icy cold, and her palms were so slippery that she couldn't hold the phone.

Standing there for a while, she immediately turned around and walked quickly towards home, running back to the old house as if fleeing for her life.

As soon as the door was opened, there was a fragrant smell of oranges, and several freshly peeled orange peels were placed on the heater.Xiaodou suddenly remembered that the day he "come back" just now, the room smelled like oranges, and he couldn't help being dazed for a moment.Entering from the porch, her dedicated computer in the living room was wiped clean, the mouse and keyboard were still arranged according to her left-handed habit, and Dou Dao never touched the computer except when cleaning the machine.

She walked up quickly and turned on the computer.

It only took a few months for her to fully adapt after she came back. On the contrary, the memory of the experience when she was not here seems to have been dusted. Occasionally, when she thinks about it, there are only some unresolved questions in her heart.Until just now, when she found that the traces of these memories had completely disappeared, she suddenly felt an unprecedented panic and an unrelieved touch.

The computer started up quickly, and the game icon of "True Love Kiss" was still on the screen.

She immediately opened the game and found her last save file half a year ago.Tap lightly, the picture goes dark and then brightens again, and a Japanese night scene like an ancient painting appears in front of you.The night was surrounded by a corner of the palace with painted buildings with cornices, reflecting two figures in the middle.One is a tall samurai, the other is a princess in brightly colored clothes.

After a while, Xiaodou remembered that this was the last story she typed before leaving, Ryuya Toyoshima and He Ji.

Press the mouse lightly, and lines of small golden characters appear on the screen.

[Toyoshima Ryuya stands quietly by the window, his handsome face is strongly illuminated by the moonlight.The muscles of his right hand holding the saber are strong and powerful, it has cut off the heads of countless enemy generals, but now it gently holds your palm.

The gentle strength is full of caring, which is the opposite of the pure masculine strength.

"Your Highness," he said in a hoarse voice, "If I want to stay in the palace to accompany Your Highness, I... have to give up my status as a soldier, and I will never touch this knife again, and I will never go to the battlefield again..."

His expression is full of pain and struggle; you can't help holding his face...]

[1. Hug him. 】

[2. Kiss him. 】

It's been too long, and Xiaodou has forgotten how he chose at that time.She looked at this large section of familiar and unfamiliar text, and then looked at the two options below, and suddenly remembered many things.

The mood gradually calmed down and then sank, she pressed the first option.

【You stretch out your hand and quietly embrace the helpless man in front of you.

He froze for a moment, then carefully hugged you back. "……your Highness?"

The warrior who never hesitated and went forward when he went to battle to kill the enemy, now showed a bewildered and heartbreaking sadness.

You have no choice but to pat him comfortingly and ask him...]

[1 Ryumi, can you tell me your troubles? 】

[2. I love Long Mi, does Long Mi also love me?If yes, please stay for me. 】

"Tell me your troubles..." Xiaodou murmured the lines on the screen, moving the cursor slowly.

【You ask him: "Long Mi, can you tell me your troubles?"

Toshima seemed shaken.After a long time, he smiled wryly.

"I'm ashamed, I'm... a little scared. I'm a warrior, and the only meaning of existence since I was conscious is to fight—do you understand? I may be worthless after leaving the battlefield, and I can't even protect His Highness as before. .At that time, I will no longer be me..."

He stroked the long hair at the back of her head.

"...Maybe it's no longer...the 'me' His Highness wants."]

What should I choose next?

Xiaodou remembered that he had seen this story, but forgot the details of the turning point.She hesitated for a while, and pressed the option she wanted.

【"...Go back to the battlefield." You cut off his words softly. "Go back, Long Mi. This is not the place you should stay."

"!?" Toyoshima raised his eyes in disbelief: "I can't leave, how could His Highness stay..."

"What nonsense?" You laughed out loud. "Who said you were going to stay?"

"...Please take me with you, Ryumi. Your army is not fighting for my father, but for your giri. Take me with you, to the direction where you are pursuing giri Bar."】

At this point, the screen went dark again.Unknowingly, Xiaodou had already sat in front of the computer with full concentration, and only then did she come to her senses, her palms were already a little wet with sweat.And the computer screen lit up again at this moment, showing clusters of fallen flowers one after another like a scroll unfolding; Hunting and flying in the mountain wind.

Toyoshima hugged He Ji, and galloped in the opposite direction to the distant city.The horse's hoof splashed the remaining flowers all the way, and the memories between the two were intertwined with light and shadow, and the picture gradually faded like this until it disappeared completely.

Another line of small golden characters appeared on the screen.

[he achieved.Congratulations on entering he ending for the first time. 】

[To celebrate the player's first he, the system will issue commemorative gifts to you.Please check in the gift box. 】

Xiaodou quietly looked at these few lines of small characters, with a lot of thoughts in her mind, but she seemed to have nothing, and just sat there like this.

After a long time, she returned to the game start interface and clicked into the gift box.

The gift is delivered by email, with a link to receive the gift attached under a small string of text.It's just that just after Xiaodou saw the first line of the text, he felt as if ice had started to freeze from his fingertips, and his whole body began to chill.

[Xiaodou, we should have said goodbye when you saw this. 】

[You probably still have a lot of questions in your mind.However, if you consider thoroughly investigating the background of this game, I am afraid that there will be no answer. This is just an ordinary love game. 】

[If you encounter strange things, please don't pay too much attention to them. 】

[Because at the end, I want to give you another gift as a souvenir. 】

[For this reason, some strange settings and small changes had to be made. 】

[Then, I wish you happiness. 】

The word "n'" in gilt color flashes silently just below the mail.

...
