I loaded the dream game

Seeing the boy handed her another bottle of yogurt, she did not refuse this time, but asked: "Is this your request?"

"Just wanted to ask if you needed something to eat."

Xia Zhi replied, paused for a moment, and added:

"And... please forget about what happened just now."

Rokuko nodded slightly, took the yogurt in his hands, looked at him and said:

"If that's your request..."

"「Seal Master」——!"

As the girl finished her words, a huge key-shaped tin staff fell into her hands.

A question mark popped up in Xia Zhi’s head.

"Wait, what do you want to do?"

"Seal your own memory."

Rokuko answered without changing his tone, and looked at the boy as if it was a matter of course:

"Because you made me forget."

"..."

I just asked you to ignore that incident, not to seal that memory.

...Okay, it was indeed my choice of words in communication.

"forget it."

Xia Zhi sighed slightly and asked her to put down the "Master of Seal".

Lily, who was standing by, looked thoughtful.

"Is it possible to seal one's own memory?"

"Even humans may forget a fixed memory when they are stimulated. There is no reason why elves can't do it, right?" Xia Zhi replied.

Although the principle is different...By the way, have you finished touching it?

"Ah, sorry..."

Lily then realized that her hand was still pinching the boy's face. She blushed and took her hand back. She recalled how she and the boy met and looked up at him.

"...Why didn't you tell me?" She puffed up her cheeks slightly...

"You didn't ask me." Xia Zhi replied.

Lily thought about it and it seemed so.

However, generally speaking, no one would ask a stranger they just met "Are you a god?"

and many more……

Lily recalled that when she was exhausted from climbing a mountain, she suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and then a constant flow of energy emerged from deep inside her body.

He said at that time that it was a blessing from God...

……I see

The girl clenched her hands slightly in front of her chest, pursed her lips and thought about something, then turned her head without saying a word and walked to the side.

"Where are you going?"

Xia Zhi asked doubtfully.

"go home!"

Lily answered without turning her head, disassembled the telescope she had just assembled, held it in her arms, and walked down the mountain.

It looked like she was angry.

Looking at the girl's back as she left, Xia Zhi thought to himself, and then he saw her walk to the rock wall she had just climbed up, hesitated for a moment, and then turned back.

"I'll go with you."

She raised her little head and looked at Xia Zhi and said this, trying hard to control her expression, but her slightly blushing cheeks revealed her inner embarrassment and shyness.

"If you're scared, just tell me. I won't laugh at you." Xia Zhi comforted him.

"I'm scared, please take me down."

Is this child thin-skinned or thick-skinned?

Xia Zhi couldn't help but complain in her heart, but still agreed... You can't just leave her like this, right?

Judging from the courage she had shown before, she could really stay alone until dark without daring to come down.

"...Speaking of which, since she is yours now."

On the way down the mountain, Lily was carried on the boy's back, feeling the warmth and security brought by being close to her. She hugged his neck and clung to him. After thinking for a while, she asked in his ear:

"Then the compensation for the instruments in my bag..."

Summer Solstice:…

To be honest, we have only known each other for less than half an hour.

.......

Chapter 1157 Seeing is believing

Because they had nowhere to go for the time being, Rokuko was now wary of Hinata and the others, so Xia Zhi had to take her back to his temporary residence.

I originally wanted to find her some casual clothes to change out of the cheongsam she was wearing... It's not that it doesn't look good, but compared to everyday clothes, this outfit looks more like cosplay and is more eye-catching.

After he said this, Lily suggested that they could go to her house and find a set of her clothes for the girl to wear.

After all, although there may be some difference in figure, in terms of height, the difference between the two is actually not that big, so as long as they find larger-sized clothes, they should be able to... fit into them?

But, the rent has already been paid by others, so how can I have the nerve to wear their clothes?

After thinking about it, Xia Zhi decided to bring Rokuko to the girl's home.

...It's not for any other reason, I just simply want Lily's help in dressing up.

However, the girl doesn't seem to be interested in this right now.

"Summer Solstice..."

Looking at the blonde girl who took a piece of clothing and went into her room to change clothes as instructed by Xia Zhi, Lily turned around and looked at the boy next to her.

"If you are really a god..."

She hesitated for a moment, pursed her lips slightly, and continued to ask:

"Then do you know...what the outside of the wall looks like?"

"Didn't I tell you? There's nothing over there."

Xia Zhi replied, looking at the several sets of clothes placed on the sofa in front of him and feeling troubled... If the girl didn't help, it would be a bit difficult for him to choose clothes by himself.

However, Lily was not satisfied with his answer.

Nothing... Not the answer she wanted.

Rather, it is too general and there is no way to get any useful information.

"It means literally, 'nothing'."

As if he noticed the girl's thoughts and gave up the idea of ​​choosing, Xia Zhi turned around and looked at her, repeating with a heavier tone.

Lily was stunned for a moment, and gradually understood what the boy meant.

"You mean... outside the wall, there is nothing?"

“It’s more than just things.”

After thinking about it, he felt that there was no need to hide anything. Since the girl wanted to know the truth, Xia Zhi briefly explained to her the current situation of the world.

Lily was very smart. Although many details were omitted, she quickly understood the general situation from the boy's simple explanation.

"You mean... all the existences in our time and space were stripped from the original world?"

She widened her eyes slightly and asked in disbelief.

There is a slight deviation, but generally speaking it is not much different.

After receiving the boy's affirmative answer, Lily felt her head becoming dizzy again, and her mind was a little dazed by the huge amount of information.

After a long time, after she recovered from her shock, her lips moved slightly a few times, and after a moment she continued to ask:

"The original world..."

"The situation outside is indeed similar to what the amnesty announcement said." Xia Zhi replied.

"..."

Lily fell silent.

Although she got the answer she wanted, she didn't feel happy at all.

Now, she only feels that her mentality has undergone a drastic change.

Things that I once cared about so much, now just feel... to be meaningless.

If there's really nothing outside

If they are really just fragments of the "real world"...

Then what is the meaning of all that I have done... no, what is the meaning of my existence?

Looking at the confused and depressed girl, Xia Zhi sighed slightly.

"Don't you want to 'see is believing'?"

He bent down slightly, looked into the girl's confused eyes, and said:

"Just because I said it, do you believe it?"

"Whether it's a yes or no, you have to figure it out, think about it, and get the truth yourself... right?"

"..."

Listening to the boy's words, Lily's eyes gradually became clear.

Yes... blindly believing in unproven statements is called "superstition".

So, is blindly believing in a person’s one-sided statement also another level of “superstition”?

Even if that person is a god...but even this matter itself has not been proven yet, right?

The facts themselves are not important

Having the will to think, to work hard, to find out is what I originally wanted...denial and resistance to this "superstitious" world

Lily's eyes regained their sparkle.

"But, Xiazhi, I..."

Something suddenly came to her mind.

The boy came to this time and space specifically... to save the girl named "Hoshimiya Rokuko".

Then, are she... and these other people who are in the stripped-away time and space the ones he wants to save?

"What do we mean to you?"

"Did you forget it?"

Seeing that the girl had regained her spirits and finally started thinking about other things, Xia Zhi smiled and touched her head.

"I also said I would protect you." 840

"That is to say... you are also one of the people I want to save."

"Can I believe this?" Lily tilted her head slightly.

"Can't we just verify it carefully in the next period of time?" Xia Zhi replied.

Hearing his answer, Lily's face was filled with smile again.

"Summer Solstice."
