Chapter 468 173. One step away

"A classmate, I screwed up." Li Aoz said casually, "Although I don't know what you're doing here, but it's just in time to come and help me—"

"...What do you mean by being overwhelmed?"

Yawen turned her head slightly, and said expressionlessly:
"Your classmate looks very young, with a tall figure and healthy skin. It's not like a frost-plated woman from the blue star like me, who is pale and looks old."

"Hey, you brought food here? Just in time, she doesn't know when she will wake up, we are all big eaters, so we came at the right time—"

Before Li Aoz finished speaking, Yawen interrupted:
"Oh, you still know her hobbies very well. You all love to eat. That's great, Li Aoz. It's fun to eat in the cafeteria with beautiful classmates, right?"

"Our cafeteria is really delicious."

Li Aoz said casually:

"One thing to say, you didn't see her eating, it's really more appetizing—"

"Li Aoz!" Yawen couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted loudly, "I, I... I'm just like this. Is it of no use to you?"

Li Aoz was at a loss.

"What are you talking about, Yawen, you haven't seen each other for several months for some reason, and you've been avoiding me—"

"Ah, yes, I've been avoiding you all the time, it must be better to be by my side every day, Qingqing me, a young and beautiful girl classmate!"

Yawen bit her lip, she lowered her head, the confidence taken away by the [Secret Society], and the 'inferiority' quality of being a [tailor], at this moment, she fell into deep self-blame.

"I'm sorry, I'm useless for nothing, yeah, I'm nothing to you, I always feel like I'm different."

Li Aoz stood there blankly, he really didn't know what happened to the other party.

Yawen came here for no reason, and then got angry for no reason, and said some inexplicable words.

"I thought: I went to space with you, came to an alien planet together, and followed your footsteps all the time. In this way, the relationship between me and you will surpass other people."

Yawen's voice became lower and lower, choked with sobs.

"I said, why are you crying?" Li Aoz held Di Yalan and walked forward.

pat.

Yawen took a step back, bowed her head and said:

"Am I crying? Nope, hahaha... hehe, hehe..."

Yawen turned her head away and said coldly:
"Li Aoz, I won't cry for you."

As she said so, there were crystal marks on her cheeks.

Li Aoz stood where he was, seeing her like this, and didn't know what to say.

After a moment of silence, he glanced at Di Yalan in his arms and said:

"If there's anything, go back and talk slowly. I have to take her to the infirmary first."

Just as Li Aoz was about to turn his head, Yawen suddenly raised her head and shouted:

"Li Aoz—you idiot, I'm jealous of you!"

pat.

Li Aoz turned around with serious eyes. He put Di Yalan down and walked slowly towards Yawen step by step.

"……Fool."

Yawen bit her lip, her nose sore, she hurried forward, opened her arms to Li Aoz, and shouted:
"You idiot, idiot, mentally retarded, and stupid! I really miss you, Li Ao—"

"do not come!"

Li Aoz shouted abruptly.

sand…………

Yawen stood where she was, and the distance between her and Li Ozi was less than a few centimeters.

"Oz..."

Li Aoz held his breath, picked up a stone from his feet, and threw it on Yawen's head.

boo——

Yawen stared blankly at the front, the stone fell towards her quickly, and then disappeared a few centimeters in front of her.

She lowered her head and saw a miniature of a stone emerging from the sand on the ground.

"Dimensional barrier." Li Aoz let out a foul breath, his eyes were serious: "It was written by [Wan Yue]."

"Mr. Li Aoz..." Yawen looked at Li Aoz: "Us, this is?"

"Someone released dimensional barriers everywhere in the school. As long as they touch it, they will be two-dimensional." Li Aoz frowned: "This is terrible. I was suppressed by the Higgs field, even if I used the arcane, I couldn't." There is no way to get rid of it, and it will be discovered by the school."

Yawen must not be able to hear herself, so the action of throwing stones just now made her brake quickly.

No wonder there are no people around here... Wan Yue, it must be Wan Yue who attacked the school.

Li Aoz could basically guess his purpose—to identify the fragments of the eye.

"This guy...just at this time!"

Li Aoz clicked his tongue.

"Mr. Li Ozi! What are you talking about? I can't hear you!" Yawen shouted, "I want to go to your side...I want to stay with you."

"After all, sound is essentially a mechanical wave... and it will be blocked by interference. This is troublesome. If the sound can't get through, I can't get through it either."

Li Aoz shook his head:

"Yawen, you take good care of yourself. Find a crutch or something to explore the way. The dimensional barrier is invisible. Not only will it separate us, but if you are not careful, you will fall into the nearby two-dimensional surface. A drop of water can kill you."

"I... what are you talking about?"

Yawen couldn't hold back anymore, she was dizzy for a while, fell to her knees, and sobbed softly:

"Why... why me?"

"I finally met you. I want to bring you delicious food. I want to tell you that I have found a solution to the blood of the ether. I think...I miss you."

"Why is it like this? It's right in front of me, only one step away?"

Yawen cried.

She knelt on the spot, not knowing how much pressure she had accumulated recently. Once she cried, she couldn't stop anymore, and the light makeup on her face was washed away.

Li Aoz couldn't hear her, and had no time to comfort her.

He had to say:
"Yawen, time is urgent, you find a safe place to stay."

"...I don't want to go anywhere." Yawen's eyes were red and swollen, her voice choked up: "I have never been necessary to exist, even to you, I am just a dispensable thing."

"Yawen—"

"What is so meaningful... is it actually a lie to me?" Yawen said quietly: "Without the secret society... as expected, citizens are nothing."

She covered her face, her skin was torn, and small white spiders crawled out of it. Her tone became more frightening, her inferiority complex became stronger, and the blood of ether began to flow uncontrollably.

Her figure became more and more strange and terrifying, and the traces of Yawen Heskissing's existence gradually faded, replaced by the characteristics of being a "tailor".

She murmured in a low voice, bringing up another illusory voice, and said together:
"...I should, go find the secret."

hum!
[What kind of nerves are in your fucking head!Yawen Heskissing! 】

The sound of reverberation swept across, passed through the dimensional barrier, and echoed in Yawen's ears.

"…………Eh?"

[Tailor] Slowly raised her head, half of her face had turned into a spider, and the eye belonging to Yawen Heskissing was staring at Li Oz with tears glistening.

Li Aoz took off the head of the cloak, exposing the ripples of the original void space, so that he could maximize his ability to echo and communicate.

【Yawen, I don’t know what kind of mental journey you have been through recently. I can’t feel your heart. You may have been suffering and tormented, but I can’t share your worries. You may be deep in darkness, waiting for redemption. , but I can't do it either.I'm not a pompous person, and I won't give you forever guarantees. 】

"Mr. Li Oz..."

[But you can rest assured. 】

Li Aoz's voice kept echoing in Yawen's heart:
[No matter where you are in the dark corner of the star abyss, my voice will arrive before any light. 】

[Go forward, Yawen, protect yourself. 】

[When you are walking on the road, pay attention to the echo, only this, my guarantee is eternal. 】

Yawen looked at Li Aoz.

The spider's limbs gradually withered, and the cracks on her body healed. She hugged herself alone, and was silent for a long while. Facing Li Aoz, she opened her mouth and slowly made a mouth type:
"I brought you food, now I can only eat it myself."

[We can have a better meal together. 】

Li Oz said:
【Wait for us to go home. 】
