I'm mentally retarded, who asked me to join Rules Monster Talk?

Chapter 303 Reunion with Mother
It's not something he inherited from someone, it's... the name he gave himself.

There are definitely not a few people with this name in this world, and he is just one of them.

However, compared to others, this name has a different meaning to him.

So, starting from today, the boy...became Xiao Yi.

"Huh..." Xiao Yi took a deep breath, carried his mother-in-law on his back, and was about to leave.

Then, he discovered that Eve was standing not far away, waiting for her silently.

This sister, whose origin is unknown and extremely mysterious, has always been by his side for some unknown reason.

No matter where he went or who he met, she was always by his side and never left.

Unknowingly, Xiao Yi suddenly noticed that if she was not around him, he would feel empty in his heart.

But...she has never left her, even now.

"Xiao Yi...your mother may no longer be in this city." She said.

"That's right." Xiao Yi said, "I want to know, sister, what you think."

And once I leave him, then... what will happen to him?

Yes, Xiao Yi has been able to speak since he was a child, but... such a repressive environment made him afraid to talk to others or connect with others.

Rather than forcefully tearing them apart, it might be better to slowly disconnect.

"...Xiao Yi." Eve smiled softly at him and said, "What a nice name."

However, Eve was actually a little tangled in her heart.

"..." Xiao Yi looked at her silently, waiting for her next words.

Gradually, the wind blowing in the face becomes colder and colder, and winter is coming.

"..." And Eve also lowered her head in a rare move.

This made Eve feel sad again. She didn't know what kind of expression she should use to face Xiao Yi.

After thinking carefully, she finally mentioned something to Xiao Yi, something she had wanted to bring up before but never had the courage to bring up.

There is no need for too many words or expressions of emotion, just this is the best way for them to get along with each other.

For Eve, after leaving here, when she returns, she will be able to see the Xiao Yi she once was.

Xiao Yi didn't ask any more questions. Since Eve didn't want to tell him, it must mean there was some reason why she couldn't tell him.

Eve couldn't help but start to worry, maybe...it would be better if she kept a certain distance from him.

I can no longer have any more contact with Xiao Yi, and I can't let him know my name.

"...Let's go, sister." Xiao Yi walked to her side and said to her slowly: "Let's... go back."

Now, he has finally changed, and I, by his side, have witnessed his change.

Witnessing the boy's growth all the way, seeing him grow into what he is now, already taller than himself, and finally getting the name that belongs to him. More importantly... he was finally willing to speak to others.

"Let me make the decision? I..." Eve didn't know how to answer this question for a moment.

"...That's it."

"..." Xiao Yi was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Sister, do you... think this would be better?"

At this moment, feeling the icy cold wind, Eve felt herself becoming calmer and calmer.

"By the way..." At this time, Xiao Yi asked again: "Speaking of which, sister, what is your name? I haven't known it for so long."

However, Xiao Yi grew up, and the price was to lose something.

"Me?" Eve didn't dare to look directly into Xiao Yi's eyes.

"And..." Xiao Yi added: "I have a name now. I chose it myself, and it's called Xiao Yi."

They were still wandering around the city looking for Xiao Yi's biological mother, without stopping one day.

Then, with Eve's help, Xiao Yi took care of her mother-in-law's funeral affairs, and they once again returned to their previous wandering life, a life where they were only accompanied by each other.

There is no doubt that Xiao Yi, a child, is extremely afraid of isolation and loneliness. He knows the pain of loneliness better than anyone else, and naturally he is more afraid of it than anyone else.

"Me? My name is...ah." Eve was about to say it, but then she was suddenly stunned for a moment, then she forced a forced smile and replied:
"Let's talk about it one day in the future."

Eve is now experiencing what she once envied most, and she is undoubtedly very happy and satisfied in her heart.

Yes, separation is doomed. She will inevitably leave Xiao Yi one day in the future. This is inevitable and necessary. As long as Eve stays with Xiao Yi until a certain moment, it is enough to ensure that Xiao Yi's existence can continue.

Because she finally remembered one thing. Soon, she would leave Xiao Yi's side.

He only needs to know that it is enough to have a sister by his side, so that he can connect with the future.

However, at this moment, she suddenly remembered a sentence that her uncle said to her... Children cannot make decisions, so make the decision yourself.

"...Yeah." Eve just nodded silently, and then stayed with Xiao Yi, watching his pace and adjusting her own steps.

"After searching for so long, I still haven't found any trace. Maybe your mother is no longer in this city. We..." Eve hesitated, but she still mustered up the courage to say, "I'm afraid we can't find her anymore. When it comes to your mother, no matter how hard you try, it's impossible to achieve, so let's stop this matter. I'm sorry... Even though you worked so hard and it was an agreed upon thing, I said I wanted to give up. ”

……

However, this is only for her. For Xiao Yi, it was... the sister who grew up with him, left him forever.

So, Eve gritted her teeth and nodded vigorously.

"Well, I think that would be better for you."

"...Really?" Xiao Yi lowered his head slightly, "Then what should I do next if I don't find my mother?"

He was confused about what to do if he gave up the goal of life that he had always insisted on.

"..." Eve took a deep breath and asked, "Xiao Yiqian...does he have any wishes?"

"Wish?" Xiao Yi looked at Eve for a moment, shook his head, and replied, "I don't know."

"In that case, let's go find it together. Find what you want to do, your ideals, your wishes, and then pursue it... I will also be by your side and help you find it."

"..." These words made Xiao Yi feel at ease in his heart, "Really? That's good...I will look for what I want to do next."

"...Well!" Eve showed a happy smile: "Look for it slowly, let's go."

Saying that, Eve subconsciously extended her hand to Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi quickly held her hand.

The two held each other's hands, no longer searching for something on the road as eagerly as before, but for the first time, slowly, without any purpose, but just like this, simply experiencing the road they walked together. .

At this time, Eve looked at the people coming and going on the street and asked doubtfully:
"Speaking of which, it's so cold now, why are there so many people willing to hang out outside?"

Xiao Yi replied: "Maybe...it's because the Spring Festival is coming."

"Spring Festival?"

That was a special and very important festival in this country. Eve didn't know much about it. They really didn't care much about it before. However, for others, it is different.

"It turns out it's a holiday." Eve nodded, "No wonder everything is so lively. Speaking of which, we didn't pay much attention to this holiday before. This should be a very important holiday here, right?"

"Probably." Xiao Yi was silent for a moment, then looked at Eve and suddenly said: "By the way, sister..."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

"On Spring Festival, let's go out for a walk together."

"…………Eh?"

Eve was stunned. This was her first time being invited by Xiao Yi. This was something Eve had never dared to think about before!

She was so excited that she almost jumped up on the spot. Of course, she subconsciously wanted to nod in agreement.

"Yeah! I...uh!"

However, in the next moment, the joy on Eve's face completely disappeared.

Is it really okay for me to agree to this?

Haven't you already decided to slowly cut off contact with him?

"..." So, Eve clenched her little fists, holding back the emotions that were about to burst out of her heart, and almost squeezed out a voice from between her teeth: "No... I won't go."

"……Yeah?"

Xiao Yi's reaction was also very dull.

……

On the night of the Spring Festival, Xiao Yi was wandering alone on the street, and Eve was following him not far behind him.

Although Eve rejected him, she still accompanied him, but she was farther away from him than before.

Although Eve is still by Xiao Yi's side, the attitude of rejection is very important.

Eve wanted so much to go to him, but she knew...she couldn't do this.

Although Xiao Yi didn't say anything, he used to never go out except for necessary matters, but now he was wandering outside without any purpose.

Maybe he just wanted to spend the day with Eve in this way.

Although she kept a certain distance, she was still by his side, and that alone was enough.

Suddenly, people around started counting down.

"five four three two one!!!"

At the moment when the countdown ended, the night sky burst into brilliant fireworks.

Xiao Yi was immediately attracted by the gorgeous fireworks. He looked up at the night sky and was fascinated by the colorful fireworks that were blooming in the night sky.

"..."

Eve, however, did not look up at the night sky, but kept looking at Xiao Yi.

She felt that compared to the fireworks, Xiao Yi's face and eyes illuminated by the fireworks were more beautiful.

The corners of Eve's mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.

"That's great, he looks very happy...Eh?"

However, at this moment, Eve accidentally saw a figure that she did not want to see.

"...Why? Why is she here?"

Not far away from Xiao Yi, his... biological mother was there.

She is still in this city now, and then, on today's special day, she also came out to spend this festival together.

Xiao Yi searched for his biological mother for so many years without finding it, but she met him just after he was about to give up!

As long as Xiao Yi tilts his head slightly, he can see her. As long as Xiao Yi sees her, he will definitely find that she is the mother he has been looking for for many years!
"...That's it!" At the same time, Eve spotted the petite figure next to Xiao Yi's mother.

At this moment, Xiao Yi was planning to look in that direction!

Eve's pupils shrank sharply, and she rushed to Xiao Yi, anxious to pull him away.

"Xiao Yi! Let's go over there and have a look!"

"...?" Xiao Yi looked at her doubtfully, and quickly noticed something. He subconsciously looked in that direction, and then...

"...!"

Xiao Yi recognized his mother as expected, and he rushed over!

"Wait!" Eve knew what was going to happen next and wanted to hold him back, but ultimately failed to catch up. She could only look at Xiao Yi's still slightly petite back and leave her.

"Don't go!" She made a weak pleading voice, "I will stay with you and will not refuse you, so..."

Xiao Yi, on the other hand, squeezed through the crowd and finally... came to his mother again.

"mom……"

Xiao Yizheng was about to call out, but he tripped and fell to the ground in front of his mother.

His mother was also shocked when she saw him, and hurriedly helped Xiao Yi up.

"Are you alright?"

She gently patted the dust on Xiao Yi's body and showed Xiao Yi a gentle and unfamiliar smile.

"..." Xiao Yizheng was about to say something, but his mother's words stunned him.

She asked: "Kid, where are your parents?"

Then, a petite little girl came to her mother and asked her, "Mom, who is this brother?"

"I don't know." She said, "I don't know whose child it is, but..."

Xiao Yi's mother looked at Xiao Yi again and said with a gentle smile: "You are injured, can you come with me to treat the wound first? Don't worry, I am not a bad person. After treating the wound, I promise to treat you Send it to your parents."

Just as Xiao Yi thought, his mother was indeed a gentle and kind person.

However, her gentleness and kindness made Xiao Yi feel extremely painful.

She is showing a happy smile now. She must have gained happiness after that.

And that happiness was obtained by giving up Xiao Yi.

Of course, she also forgot that she had a child.
