I am the kind of person who feels "it's so nice to be home" when I lock myself in the closet... Although I am also very talkative in social situations, I always feel that the little kid who makes up stories alone in the closet is the real me.
Only creation is my little black box. Every time I immerse myself in it, a sense of security and freedom comes with it.
The key words of Volume 5 are “escape” and “starlight”. Careful readers can find that this volume, from the title “Exodus” to the titles and names of some chapters, all use some allusions from the Book of Exodus.
"Escape" is an action that most human beings have to perform throughout their lives: when we are weak, we escape from our weak self and become as strong as possible; when we are poor, we escape from our poor self and feed ourselves; when we are fragile, we escape from our fragile self and become strong.
We escape from the past and move towards the future.
This kind of "escape" is not as embarrassing as the literal meaning, but carries an attitude of "as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood to burn", just like the protagonist of this volume, Carly Fellowes.
Most of the plots in this volume are about Carly trying her best to escape from various force majeure. When faced with insurmountable mountains, she will not rush into them like a moth to a flame, but will cleverly circumvent them with a method of taking advantage of the opponent's strategy and then escape.
She is a wise person, and does not have the reckless and tough style of Perlis. Instead, she is like a loach, able to navigate the dangerous world with ease.
Her purpose is to pursue her own "starlight".
There is a sentence in "The Catcher in the Rye": "An immature idealist will die tragically for his ideal, while a mature idealist is willing to live a miserable life for his ideal."
"Starlight" is the bright light that guides people forward in the darkness. It is the faint light that shines in the night. Even if it is small, it is fascinating.
This is one of the reasons why Carly was able to overcome numerous obstacles. In order to see Perlis again, she would head towards the "starlight" even if she had to "escape" by any means necessary.
In this volume, the behavioral logic followed by most characters is to chase their own "starlight".
In order to witness the starry sky, Cecilia Fellowes resolutely climbed up Step 2.
Will Tran went to the Black Island without hesitation in order to find a possibility of his deceased wife's resurrection.
In order to find her brother, Hallilali gave up her perfect life in the high heaven and headed for the dust planet.
In order to protect the students he loved, Hassanka was willing to risk his life even if it meant he would die.
In order to find her sister, Lianbao, a socially anxious person, actually walked out of her room and drove a shuttle to bombard the sea.
Even a clue-type character like Chadwick Smith, who doesn't have many scenes, does everything for his son to have a place in the coming storm.
Everyone's trajectory is guided by the starlight, and they may pass by or meet each other in the flowing night sky.
We are all chasing our own starlight, even if the universe is cold.
I am a simple person, well... a little bit immature, a little bit lonely. I pursue very simple things, because I refuse to be corrupted by those unrealistic things, and prefer simple things that touch the heart.
I know that, perhaps from the perspective of many readers, the plot of Carly embracing Pearlis after passing through the white flame will seem very "earthy", because this is already a very conventional writing method...the protagonists go through untold hardships to achieve their goals, and the villains suffer a setback.
But I just like this... I don't like to call it earthy, I call it pure.
Some people may think that I can't make this plot more dramatic... um...
I actually thought of many IF solutions for this section...
For example, the introduction of Carly's black water line, the ending can be: Carly and Perlis embrace and cuddle, and then suddenly turn black, and stab Perlis in the chest. Then switch to Lapras's perspective, explaining that Carly actually has black water in her body, and all this has been planned for a long time" (Carly's black water line has been in her body for a long time, and this plan is used in Volumes 6 and 7)
Another one: Carly was shot dead by the Black Angel in order to protect Perlis. After Perlis contained the White Flame, she lost her anchor, destroyed the Black Island, and became the new villain... But Carly didn't die. When the Black Angel was killed in seconds, Carly contained the Black Water inexplicably, and then began to fight Perlis as a god. In the end, she killed Perlis with great pain, watched her die in her arms, and then...
You see, it's not difficult to deliberately write a fancy ending or one with many twists and turns...
In fact, there are many more complicated ways to deal with it. These two are what I thought of temporarily. I don’t think they are fancy enough... not sharp enough...
But I really think... a simple and heart-touching ending is better...
I hope that all those who have cherished aspirations can meet again. Sincerely, this world may not treat everyone fairly, but the starry sky shines generously above our heads.
Okay, no more second-year thinking...
Anyway, I can finally write about the two little ones again... Next, I plan to write a special chapter about them, so that I can have a good time... and let everyone see some beautiful things...
Then, there is the extra chapter of Pace’s Thebite line. This line should be super exciting, eh!
Finally, a personal extra chapter for Laplace will be added, and then the serialization of Volume 6 will begin.
Volume 6 is quite large, so I will spend more time polishing the outline. Before that, let Mo Xiaoniao take a break...
Writing is still very tiring... Thank you for reading my book...!
There are two more volumes expected to finish this book, and I won’t stop.
Everyone must live a good life and try to make themselves happier every day!
If my words can bring anything to you, I will be honored!
Let us encourage each other, witnesses.

Sea of Starlight
Carly was panicking now.
As a rational scholar, she rarely panics. Even in the [College], she has always been known for her calmness and clarity. No matter how big the problem is in the experiment, she can deal with it calmly.
But now, she was panicking.
Too close... and...
"......"
The gentle waves in the early morning hit the hull of the Blue Reef, causing it to rock gently, making the atmosphere in the entire cabin as comfortable as a cradle.
Carly was lying in bed, staring at the little one in her arms, not daring to move.
When she opened her eyes, Pearlis was already in her bed.
It’s not that there’s anything shameful about sleeping in the same bed... In fact, Carly often tries various ways to trick Pearlis into being her pillow, and has succeeded many times.
But the number of times that Perlis came up to me on her own initiative... was very rare.
Not to mention...she was sticking to that place——
"Well..."
The sleeping Perlis moved her head slightly, Carly trembled slightly, and then she exhaled deeply.
Little White Flower seems a little too clingy...is it because they've been apart for a long time?
This little guy has always lacked a sense of security. Although he usually acts straightforwardly and efficiently, some things in his heart will not change with time.
So pitiful... She actually threw herself into my arms...
"..."
Carly smiled softly before wrapping her arms around the little white flower's back and holding her close to her.
She missed Pearlis too, how could she not miss her.
"call......"
Feeling the warm breath of Pearls spraying on her chest, Carly lowered her head deeply and kissed Pearls on the forehead.
Pearlis didn't react. She closed her eyes, looked adorable in sleep, and her cheeks were so rosy that bubbles seemed to come out of them.
So cute...
Carly couldn't help it, so she held Pearl's cheek again and kissed her lightly.
Soft, hot and bouncy.
After being kissed twice in succession, Perlis still had that peaceful sleeping face, without any reaction at all.
So cute...
Carly smiled gently, stroked her hand along Pearlis's face to her little chin, and then gently touched her lips with her fingertips.
As if she hadn't had enough fun, Carly poked Polys's cheek with her fingers, then pinched it gently, causing Polys's expression to change.
I posted this myself. It's not too much to play with it a little more~
Carly thought so and kissed Perlis on the forehead again.
At this time, Perlis uttered a soft groan:
"Um..."
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, then she half opened her eyes and looked at Carly sleepily.
Before Carly could do anything, Perlis pounced on Carly's chest again and said softly and coquettishly:
"Sleep... um..."
After saying this, she buried her head in Carly's chest and fell into a deep sleep.
This series of actions made Carly feel her heartbeat suddenly speed up, almost jumping out of her throat and out of her heart.
This is so cute...
Carly hugged Polys a little tighter. This soft little thing was breathing gently in her arms. There was nothing more precious than this.
In this case, let's sleep in a little bit today~
Thinking of this, Carly leaned against Perlis's forehead, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The waves of the North Sea of I-Tran were still gentle, rocking the ship and singing the lullaby of the sea.
......
"The little white flower posted it here by itself~"
"No... Impossible...!"
"Why would I lie to you? You hugged me so tightly, like a little kid looking for his mom~"
"Impossible...impossible..."
"Ah, little white flower says one thing and means another."
In the restaurant inside the ship, Carly and Polys were enjoying breakfast in a private room.
Fortunately, the previous black fish attack did not penetrate the granary, otherwise there might be no food to eat.
As one of the flagships directly under the jurisdiction of Canghuang, the dining standards of the Blue Reef are very rich. It can even receive ambassadors and businessmen from other countries directly on board, which shows its high standards.
However, neither Paulis nor Carly chose fancy food: two simple bowls of udon noodles, Paulis chose tomato beef, and Carly chose pork bone soup.
Eating something hot in the morning makes me feel alive.
"call..."
Perlis drank the last mouthful of thick soup at the bottom of the bowl in one gulp and exhaled a breath of hot air.
Her face was still red, and she didn't know if it was because of the hot soup or what Carly had just said.
It would be too embarrassing if it got out...Grissom, Mei, Aoi, and Rei should all have a good impression of me. If people knew that I would actively fall asleep in someone else's arms...
No...it must not be spread out!
"..."
Taking a deep breath, Perlis looked up at Carly with a little trepidation on her face.
But before she could say anything, Carly tilted her head and smiled:
"You don't want me to tell anyone, right?"
"Huh?" Perlis panicked, "Um...that is...um..."
"I can promise you, but you have to confess something to me."
"Confess...confess?"
"Yes, be honest. You can't lie to me. You must tell the truth."
"Um..."
"Is that possible?"
"Yes...Yes..."
Faced with the sudden request, Perlis was a little overwhelmed and confused, so she could only nod.
Confess...what can she confess...could it be...the size of that place? But...she knows...hasn't she seen it all...
Thinking of this, Perlis blushed, immediately shook her head, and looked determined:
"Say it!"
"puff..."
