Chapter 311 The True Wish
"Actually, I really appreciate you."
Facing Lu Xi's silence, Haimo suddenly bowed deeply to him, and said sincerely:
"At the last moment when I was able to preserve this intellect and this memory, you helped me fulfill my long-cherished wish, which was something I never even dared to dream of before."
“[Make bacteria acceptable to the public]—this is the ideal you told me when I first met.”
Looking fixedly at the beak mask in front of him, Lu Xi slightly shook his head:
"Actually I did nothing. The usefulness of bacteria is entirely of its own nature, and I'm just telling you what I know."
"No, it is the knowledge you provided that opened up a brand new path for me who has reached the end."
Looking at Lu Xi very seriously, as if thinking about something, Haimo's tone suddenly became a little lighter:
"Can you listen to me tell a story at the end? Even if this is a memory destined to disappear, I still hope it can be known by others...even if it is forgotten immediately after hearing it."
Faced with such a request, Lu Xi naturally would not refuse:
"Well, tell me."
----------------
Even among the demon clan with a large number of talents and abilities, the Bartley clan is quite special.
The clansmen of this clan known as the [Natural Plague Warlocks] are born with the ability to control invisible diseases.Although they are a bit weak in one-on-one duels, the large-scale, low-consumption epidemic talent allows them to shine in every human-devil battle.
However, Highmore was still dissatisfied with it.
"When I was very young, I was excluded by people from other races around me because of my [Plague Warlock Clan] identity. Even the bravest War Ghost Clan would not easily approach a guy who might be carrying a deadly disease."
Recalling his predicament at that time, Haimo smiled lowly:
"At that time, what I was most afraid of was going out. I saw other people on the street talking and laughing with their peers, and I could only walk alone. I always felt that they were laughing at me behind my back——Based on my current experience Looking back, it was just an unimportant and random thought, but at the time, it made me even hate the outside world."
Sometimes the heart of a child is prouder and more sensitive than that of a man.Think of yourself as the "center of the world" subconsciously. Once you have such an idea, you will feel that even the unintentional actions of the people around you have some kind of malicious purpose.
"Lonely, gloomy, unable to find topics, and unwilling to communicate with others. At that time, I was completely autistic from the beginning to the end, and I once desperately thought that this was the normal state of my life."
He has been whispering about the [past] memories that became clearer due to the loss of the [now], but at this point, Haimo's voice became slightly higher.
"However, I met [her]—"
He took out the big round-bottomed bottle that never left his body from his bosom, and looked at the pink liquid in it that seemed to be alive and shaking slightly, Haimo's voice seemed to contain endless tenderness:
"—with my [Alice]."
--------------
After encountering the bacterium he named "Alice", Haimo acted aggressively as if he had finally found his target.
Catalyzed by magic power, observe carefully every day, and patiently record the different results after different stimuli.All of this is not because of anything else, it's all because of——
"I, I want Alice to really communicate with me."
Carefully rubbing the bottle wall through the glove, what Haimo said made Lu Xi and Miss Maomao stunned at the same time:
"It's not about guessing my mind like this now, but being able to talk to me, walk with me, and do some interesting things with me like other lives. All my efforts so far have been for this reason. "
"But...but I failed."
Sitting slumped on the steps, Haimo's face was just blocked by the shadow of the sun, only a pair of glass lenses reflected a somewhat sad cold light:
"No matter how hard I try, Alice can only maintain this appearance. Don't talk about normal communication, it doesn't even increase in size—Master Lu Xi, according to your understanding of bacteria, did I go the wrong way? .”
It was wrong, and it was so wrong.
Lucy was a little speechless.
Haimo's behavior is no different from the technical geeks on the earth who rely on technology to move their two-dimensional wives.This side is transformed through magic power, while the other side of the earth is transformed through AI, 3D projection, VR and other technologies.
Regrettably, as of before Lucy's time travel, the commercial products closest to "Two-dimensional wife moves" are mostly smart speakers.It is not extravagant to have a seamless conversation like a real person. The electronic voice alone can dissuade a large number of people.
Brother, what's the difference between pointing at your cat and saying 'change for me'?
It's strange to say that so many complaints flashed through his mind in an instant, but when Lu Xi looked at Haimo's confused eyes under the lens, he couldn't say anything.
Unlike the earth, the different world is more tolerant of the existence of "dreams".And no matter where, people who bravely pursue their dreams and are willing to dedicate their all to it are always great.
In the end, Lu Xi still did not deny Haimer's ideal:
"...Sorry, I don't know much about this."
"So that's what I thought. Although Master Lu Xi doesn't seem to care about anything, he actually cares about people very much."
Without further questioning, Haimo just continued to rub the round bottom bottle in his hand as if he understood something:
"Whether my vision succeeds or not, it is destined to be a bubble now when everything is about to be lost."
"The purpose of my voluntary application to come to the human side is actually that I can't bear the incomprehension and attitude of the members of the family."
"'Disease is just a disease, it is our best tool' - I can't accept this mainstream statement. I can understand the fear of the disease in my people, as a family who will die of exhaustion when exposed to bacteria, but I still hope to find someone who treats bacteria as life on an equal footing. Thanks to your help, that wish has now come true."
Turning his head to look at the yogurt samples in the basement, Haimer's tone reveals the joy from the heart:
"I never thought that with my own hands that can control the epidemic, I can actually create the existence that brings other intelligent life [happiness]. When I heard the good news you brought, I felt something that I never thought Happiness—I believe that Alice is the same. If I want to end my life with something, there is nothing more gratifying than this!"
"end?"
Hearing something different from these words, Lu Xi was silent for a while:
"... Osiris should have enough technology and resources for your body to survive. If you trust me, sleep in the trial area first, and wait until I find a cure for this amnesia—"
"—Thank you very much for your kindness, but there is no need. As a family who knew their end from birth, I have already prepared for it."
The words interrupted Lu Xi's suggestion, and Haimo looked at the bottle in his hand, with unparalleled firmness in his eyes:
"I want to touch her with my own hands."
"Even if my organs are failing, my skin is wrinkled, my teeth are falling out, and even the second I touch her, I will disappear because of my own constitution. I will touch her with my own hands with a consciousness beyond death."
"—This is the [end] I chose for myself."

Chapter 312
"Why, still thinking about that Bartley?"
Stretching her head out of Lu Xi's chest pocket, Miss Cat looked up at his expression—different from usual, there was a little gloom and dullness in those eyes.
It seemed that he was still thinking about Haimo.
After a pause, Miss Cat raised her tone a bit:
"Ah! Don't worry about this anymore! This is the fate of the Bartley family itself, which is the same as the final death of human beings, except that one is complete amnesia and the other is physical annihilation."
"...As expected of Pikachu, it's really interesting to see."
Recalling Haimo's peaceful farewell to himself, Lu Xi sighed softly:
"I've been thinking since just now if there is a way to get him a hand—cough, don't get me wrong! This is my first demon boy, I've been fishing for so long, I should be a cadre anyway What to do."
"There is no need to hide it, holder of joy, the [movement] you feel now is not something to be ashamed of. After listening to Haimo's memories just now, my long-lost heart is touched."
Naturally, Lu Xi's clumsy acting skills cannot be fooled by the vicious Selena.However, Miss Maomao didn't mean to hate him at the moment, instead she lowered her voice a little:
"The guy who brazenly challenges the impossible and never gets tired of it naturally has this kind of charm. When I was fighting for hegemony alone and trying to annex the Holy See and the Empire by myself, a large number of my subordinates chose it because of this. Join the lonely."
"—and then defeated by the vicious Shield Hero in an extremely despicable way, right?"
Jokingly stretched out his index finger and rubbed Miss Maomao's head, and when the other party was about to start struggling from embarrassment, Lu Xi suddenly said seriously:
"Thank you, Pikachu, I never thought I would be comforted by you one day."
"!!!"
Miss Maomao's eyes instantly became extremely horrifying:
"Why, why are you talking in a handsome guy's voice all of a sudden! Are you an idiot? Are you an idiot?! Don't think that you can capture Gu by doing this? These flirting moves are useless to Gu!"
Even though she looked like an experienced ruler just now, in a blink of an eye she turned into such a cute and arrogant standard that would make Ah Wei explode. the essence of
As a trainer, you must not show weakness in front of your Pokémon!Otherwise, it will develop into the relationship between Muyinli Charizard and Xiaozhi!
She covered up her emotion just now with a beautiful Assassi flirt, and after Selena calmed down a bit, Lu Xi asked:
"So, you mean we're just watching?"
"Exactly. That man has accepted his fate and is ready for it—this can be seen in the rejection of your proposal."
Shrinking most of her body into Lucy's pocket, Selena said:
"Therefore, we only need to treat his ending as if we were saying goodbye to an old friend who is going to die——【Watching calmly, full of blessings】."
"..."
Being stared at by Lu Xi made her heart a little hairy, and Miss Maomao couldn't help shivering:
"You, what are you going to say?"
"...No, I'm just surprised that such a reasonable thing was said by you."
Knowing that it is difficult to lie in front of Miss Cat, Lu Xi honestly confessed:
"When we met for the first time, you directly pulled tens of thousands of undead out of the ground. Why didn't you think about respecting the dead like this?"
"Then, isn't that because Gu was defeated by you guys in the end—no, it was because [he didn't win yet] you guys!"
She puffed out her chest stiffly, and even though she tried her best to conceal it, an imperceptible blush still flashed across Miss Cat's face:
"Learning experience from failure is the character of an outstanding person like Gu! What do you know!"
"Yeah, I know I know."
Lu Xi nodded with a smile and added fuel to the fire: "Didn't you learn from your previous failures when you were fighting Yuxia? Have you learned the shield hero's [22 stacked shields]? It's amazing~"
What answered him was Selena's short hand thumping in anger:
"No, don't talk to Gu in the tone you talk to a child!!"
------------
"...Master Lu Xi has left."
Watching Lu Xi's figure disappearing at the exit of Osiris respectfully, Haimo let out a long sigh of relief and sat down on an empty bench in Sky City:
"Miss Lu Xi is fine, but I didn't expect that puppet master to have that kind of demonic nature. Under the watchful eyes of such two big men, I can still recall the past on my own. It seems that the closer I am to death The saying that the more courageous you are, the more correct you are.”
"..."
Of course, with no one around, there was only a rustling wind in Haimo's ears.Coupled with the story just now, the scene in front of me is even more bleak.
"...No, it's not bleak."
I don't know who to refute, Haimo took out the round bottom bottle that he couldn't leave, and looked at the crystal in the bottle tenderly:
"Aren't you always by my side? Even though it looks silly in the eyes of others, in my heart, Alice has always been connected with me?"
"..."
Under the sunlight, the pink liquid in the bottle trembled slowly following Haimo's hand.The refraction of the bright light reflected a calmness—of course, Haimo's words would not receive any response.
"Yeah, I should be used to it by now, shouldn't I?"
Although comforting himself in this way, Haimo slowly clenched the hand holding the bottle:
"When I was eating alone when I was a child, Alice, you were by my side, and you were as silent as you are now."
At that time, I always believed that my hard work would be rewarded.One day you will turn into the most beautiful girl in the world.When the time comes, I will hold your hand, walk up to those bad boys who don't play with me, and give you the most passionate and deep kiss.
"Growing up a little bit, when my theories were ridiculed as whimsical by everyone, you, Alice, were by your side, silent as you are now."
At that time, I kept fantasizing that one day I would let you break free from the shackles of the present.Maybe we can hold hands and walk on the street like ordinary couples, even though others don't know that you were originally a bacterium, even though I may not be able to prove my theory in my life, as long as I have you by my side, I am satisfied.
"Later, when everyone gave up persuading me, and instead persuaded the people around me not to approach me, Alice was by your side, silent as you are now."
At that time, I have been wishing extravagantly, longing for the thing called "miracle" to come to you and me.You don't even have to prove anything to others, and you don't even need to show off for me.I just want you to talk to me alone and say that your consciousness is real, that feeling of same-spiritedness at first sight is real - that's enough.
