I loaded the dream game

In order to facilitate explanation and prevent the girl from thinking that nothing happened... and to avoid other interference factors, Xia Zhi gave up the idea of ​​directly copying her current body and simply selected her "healthy" body from a year or two ago as her "second form".

It's just one or two years older, there shouldn't be much difference, right?

This is what I originally thought of the summer solstice.

But he was proven wrong.

Girls in their puberty period should not be underestimated.

Xia Zhi sighed in his heart, and then realized something

Could it be that Xia Zhi also has this potential in the future?

He couldn't help but fell into thought.

On the other side, after a long time, the girl who had recovered her original body finally returned to the living room with a blush on her face that had not yet faded. It was unclear whether it was because of anger or shyness... Considering the degree of affection between her and myself, it should be more of the former, right?

When Xia Zhi was thinking this, the girl threw the key back to him in annoyance.

Still not working?

Looking at the metal key that was returned, Xia Zhi thought to himself.

If you think about it carefully, it's no wonder.

After all, the girl suffers from psychogenic aphonia, and the loss of voice is a psychological cause, not a physical illness... If it were a tree, the operation just now could probably "cure" it, right?

But for Yuiya Miku, physical "recovery" alone cannot cure her mental illness.

But... this is troublesome.

Unlike the body, consciousness and psychology happen to be the areas that Xia Zhi is unwilling to directly interfere with or change.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Zhi looked at her and asked

"Miss Yui Miku...why are you so obsessed with singing?"

"What does this have to do with treatment?" the girl asked after calming down a little.

"Just think of it as psychological counseling, how about that?"

Xia Zhi tried to put the other person in Xia Zhi's shoes and switched himself to the intimate brother mode...

Hearing his words, the girl hesitated for a moment.

She seemed to be struggling for a long time, and finally pursed her lips slightly, her face slightly dimmed.

"Because I have nothing else besides singing..."

Seeing that she was no longer rejecting anything and was willing to confide, Xia Zhi stopped talking and quietly waited for her to speak... er, write

The girl used to be useless except for her special talent in singing, so she devoted herself to singing... Through singing, she experienced for the first time the feeling of being liked by so many people, and finally felt her own value, so she really liked this thing.

"But even I have been deprived of everything," the girl continued writing, and the expression on her beautiful face became ugly.

"The people who once loved me betrayed me, the people who once supported me left me... At that time, I lost everything, even my only voice."

It doesn't matter what happened to those who betrayed her, but... singing was clearly the only meaning of her life.

If you don't get the sound back

She bit her lower lip.

"In the end, I had my voice back, but before I could... I came to this strange world, and then I lost it all for no apparent reason."

If this kind of blow happened to her in the past, she would probably not have been able to bear it.

However, being trapped in this time and space without a future is no different from being dead.

This is probably one of the reasons why the girl did not attempt suicide like before.

"...Really?" Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems like she was pulled into this world just after she became an elf.

He shook his head and pulled his thoughts back.

After thinking for a while, Xia Zhi came up with a solution.

"Ms. Yuxiao Miku, do you hope that people like you as a person, your songs, or your voice?" he asked the elf girl.

Hearing his words, the girl came back to her senses and looked puzzled.

"What's the difference?"

"Of course there is a difference."

If what the girl wants to get back is her own voice...

Xia Zhi looked into her eyes and continued

“Let me be your voice.”

Hearing this, the girl froze in place.

.......

Chapter 987 Trust built on deception

Become your own voice?

What means?

"Look, don't many works have such plots written about it? Because of an accidental loss of a sense such as vision, the people close to her will use their own to replace it and help her perceive the world."

Facing the girl's puzzled look, Xia Zhi thought for a moment and explained.

Yui Miku tilted her head and thought of a suitable example.

"Guide dog?"

"..."

A few black lines on Xiazhi's forehead

This child really can't speak.

Ignoring the laughter of a certain time elf lady in his mind, Xia Zhi shook his head, looked at the silver-purple-haired girl opposite him, and continued

“Not relying on performances, not relying on looks, not relying on commercial packaging, not relying on anyone else… just relying on your own singing.”

“Everyone recognizes and likes your talent and your voice… Because you don’t rely on anyone, no one can take away everything that belongs to you. How does it feel?”

It sounds good, but...

Not relying on anyone else means

"Don't I need to rely on you?"

"I'm just your voice." Xia Zhi replied.

The girl fell silent.

She didn't know how the boy would do what he said, but compared to these, she cared more about another thing.

"…Why are you helping me like this?"

"The reason is very simple, just like I told you before..."

Xia Zhi looked into her eyes and said seriously

"I want to save you."

Save me…?

The girl lowered her head and murmured these words silently in her heart.

After a long time, she suddenly raised her head again, and her eyes became firm as she looked at him.

"I do not believe!"

Looking at this sentence, if you add a question like "Really?" in front of it, it will have a familiar feeling.

Xia Zhi complained in his heart, looking at the girl in front of him, who seemed to have touched a wound in her heart. She lowered her head and typed a long string of words excitedly, and sighed slightly.

Although I don't know what she wants to say, I can roughly guess that it is nothing more than some words of doubt and venting of emotions.

If I hadn't demonstrated some of my fighting skills before, I believe she would have started to chase me away, right?

Because I refuse to trust others anymore, do I refuse salvation?

"How did you convince her?"

He asked the elf girl in his heart.

"Don't think that she is resisting. In fact, deep down she is longing for redemption and trust." Tokisaki Kurumi replied and reminded.

At this time, Yui Miku had just become an elf not long ago, and it was just that she had difficulty trusting other people. She was far from the point in the original story when she first appeared, because she abused her abilities and did whatever she wanted, gradually treating others as objects and slaves.

There is a fluke of salvation in my heart, and when faced with real salvation and hope, I will still subconsciously believe in it.

Xia Zhi thought to himself.

That's why I chose to trust Kuang San once again... and then I was let down again.

In other words, although the previous actions of this time elf were helpless, they did add a lot of difficulty to my current self.

Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yui Miku in front of him.

At the same time, Tokisaki Kurumi also fell silent, and seemed to be curious about how he could convince this alert elf girl.

Deceive? Hide? Or try to influence with sincerity?

Tokisaki Kurumi waited quietly for the boy's words.

On the other side, Xia Zhi thought for a moment in his heart

Now that she has refused to believe anyone else...

"Then...how about just think of it as being cheated by me?" he said.

……what?

Not only Tokisaki Kurumi, but even Yui Miku who was still typing was also stunned in the same place, with her eyes slightly widened.

"I say, how about you just think that I deceived you from the beginning?"

Facing the girl's surprised eyes, Xia Zhi continued to speak slowly

"I used you, I deceived you..."

"Because there was no trust in the first place, there was no possibility of betrayal, right?"

What the girl hates and resists is deception and betrayal, so if she knew from the beginning that everything was built on "deception", then there would be no basis for being deceived and betrayed, right?

Isn’t clear mutual distrust another form of trust?

"..."

Yui Miku came back to her senses from her surprise, clenched her hands a little, and looked at the black-haired boy in front of her with a complicated look in her eyes.

She had never met such a person, nor had she ever encountered such a situation.

I can't understand, I can't understand...

He laid it all out, even at the cost of not trusting him anymore.

"What do you want to do?"

"Now that it's confirmed, I can't possibly betray you...6"

Xia Zhi looked into her clear silver eyes and said seriously: "On this basis, you can give yourself a chance."

"...Will you let me save you?"

It was still about salvation, but this time the boy's words had a different meaning to Yui Miku's ears.

Save me...

The girl repeated this sentence in her heart again, and her mood changed subtly from before.

She took a deep breath and continued typing:

"Do you think I would agree to this knowing that I was being deceived?"

"You said it yourself, you have lost everything... So, you have nothing to lose anyway, right?" Xia Zhi replied.
