Collapse? No, this is daily

The sudden change made Xilin nervous. She began to devote herself wholeheartedly, fearing to waste any second.

In this childhood home of John's memory, the two saw little Johns one by one.

They were either running around or chatting with someone whose face could not be seen clearly. There was also a little John who was happily playing football on the road.

"Oh, his technique is great, it's like the ball is following him," Dr. Watts complimented.

But at this moment, Xilin found that she suddenly could not control the character, and the scene on the screen was forced to move upwards.

Anyone who has played the game knows that this is the trigger for the mandatory CG.

John's mother, who had just finished chatting at the door, started the car and prepared to reverse.

Little John, who was completely unaware of the situation, happened to pass by while kicking a ball.

bump!

There was a screech of brakes.

Thump, thump.

Everything in the background suddenly turned dark, and in the darkness echoed the heartbeat of little John.

"He is really lucky to survive the car accident." The male doctor sighed.

"No, he didn't survive." The female doctor suddenly replied.

What do you mean?

The scene that followed made everyone’s brain feel like it was buzzing.

Another 'Little John' appeared. He quickly ran to the side of the knocked-down Little John and shouted in pain: "Joey, wake up, wake up!!"

"Mom, why did you knock Joey down!!!"

Faced with her son's accusation, the mother just shed tears silently with empty eyes. The moment she realized that she had hit her son, her spirit... collapsed.

It turns out that John was never an only child.

He has a twin brother named 'Joey'.

This tragedy, caused by his mother's carelessness, also caused him to lose his own brother.

The mentally ill mother force-fed John a large amount of beta-blockers, perhaps because she missed Joey or wanted him to forget the pain.

And the things like transforming into warriors that Xiaoxi mentioned in order to awaken John's memory turned out to be Joey's hobbies all along, and these hobbies were imposed on John by his mentally ill mother.

When Xilin thought that this reversal was shocking enough, the real truth about going to the moon had quietly been unveiled before her.

With a flash of light, the two doctors jumped back to a few months ago.

The scene changed and they arrived at a bustling amusement park.

Chapter 24 Rabbit Constellation

John felt a little disappointed because he didn't get the train because he was a step later than Joey.

He took a small schoolbag containing prizes and walked alone to the cliff behind the mountain. There was a thick fallen tree trunk there. John put the schoolbag at his feet and sat on it.

Looking up, the cold bright moon reflected the starry sky in his eyes. The vast sea was as smooth as a mirror. The chirping of insects in the quiet breeze added a sense of tranquility, which made him exclaim in surprise. The natural magnificence diluted his inner loss and made his mood visibly better.

Just when everyone thought that John was the only protagonist of this memory, an unexpected character appeared.

The footsteps slowly approached, and a girl with short orange hair walked into John's sight from the foot of the mountain.

"this......"

Xilin's eyes suddenly widened. At that moment, it was as if an electric current passed through her body. She felt numb all over as if she had been electrocuted.

“Xiaoxi, this is Xiaoxi!!!!”

Looking at the screen, Xilin's fingers trembled and she could hardly control her voice.

It turns out that they didn't meet each other in high school at all. It turns out that John and Xiaoxi have known each other since they were very young!

John’s first meeting turned out to be a reunion for Xiaoxi!

The barrage of comments exploded directly, and it was so dense that you couldn't see a single line clearly.

The plot continues. After Xiaoxi noticed John sitting there and greeting her, she, who suffers from autism, turned around and left.

"Wait, don't go!"

Perhaps it was because he felt a special connection or because they met in this secret area that made John want to keep the girl, so he left the tree trunk and chased after her without hesitation.

"I'm John...what's your name?"

When he got closer, he smiled and spoke to the stream whose back was facing him.

"...You took my spot."

Xiaoxi didn't turn around, but just turned her head to secretly glance at John, and then responded faintly.

"Oh, sorry! I didn't mean to monopolize it."

"Well, would you like to sit with me?"

Seeing that Xiaoxi still didn't turn around, John thought for a moment and extended an invitation to her.

"Are you here to see the stars?"

Xiaoxi asked suddenly.

"The same to you?"

After hearing John's response, Xiaoxi finally turned around and faced him.

Under the soft music, the two children sat together on the thick tree trunk. They looked up, and the same starry sky was reflected in their sparkling eyes.

At this moment, the screen suddenly turned black, and a beautifully made CG appeared.

In the center of the CG is the back of Xiaoxi and John.

Under the cool, bright moonlight, they sat side by side on the tree trunk.

"Look there... Did you know there were so many lights in the sky?" John asked subconsciously, amazed by this unprecedented scene.

"Yes."

"Oh... Yeah, me too."

"You just said this is the only place you are, right?"

"Only during Mardi Gras."

"Don't you like crowded places?"

Seeing that Xiaoxi didn't respond, John continued: "Actually, I don't like it either."

"Look, you haven't told me your name yet."

"I won't tell you."

Xiaoxi obviously didn't like this topic. She tried to explain: "...People in school all laughed at me because of this."

"why?"

"Because, hearing the name makes them want to go to the bathroom."

"Well...it can't be more common than the name 'John'. It's so common that there are people called him almost everywhere in the world."

John said helplessly when his name was mentioned.

“Even India?”

"Probably."

"Ordinary, what's wrong with being ordinary?"

"Well, that would be boring, I guess. If everyone has one, then what's the point?"

"I don't mind."

Xiaoxi said seriously: "Just for once... to have a name that everyone has."

"Just like the stars in the sky, although they all look similar, they are all equally beautiful."

Considering Xiaoxi's illness, these childish words made everyone feel as if something was stuck in their throats.

As an ordinary person, things that are readily available to everyone else have become an unattainable luxury here in Xiaoxi. Being ordinary is sometimes the greatest happiness.

"What do you think those stars are?" John suddenly asked, as children's thoughts always jump out of control.

"My dad said they were giant balls of burning gas."

"Oh, I bet he made that up." Not getting the answer he wanted made John directly rebuttal.

"Why would he lie to me?"

"You know, adults always like to make up stories, like Santa Claus, the Easter bunny, kangaroos... that kind of thing."

At this time, Xiaoxi suddenly said: "Have you ever tried to make an Easter bunny with stars?"

"Like looking for constellations in the sky?"

"Yes."

"Well, I've found others, but never tried rabbit."

"Do you want to try it?" Xiaoxi's voice was filled with anticipation.

"Well, let's see who can find the best rabbit constellation first."

Children are always interested in this kind of things.

"I'll count to three and we'll start. Three, two, one, go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Xiaoxi say, "I found it!"

"what?"

John turned his head and looked at the stream in disbelief. How come the game was over when he hadn't even started yet?

"where?"

"Heaven."

"But where in the sky?"

"It's right there. Think big. It's bigger than the others!"

"Um......"

Following the line of sight of the stream, he tried to raise his head, and soon, the big moon in the center of his vision attracted his attention.

"Wait...wait a minute!"

John shouted excitedly, as if he knew what the stream meant.

"I saw!"

John's cheers also excited Xiaoxi. She couldn't wait to ask, "Tell me what you saw?"

The moment Xiaoxi's words were spoken, Xilin, who was watching this scene, was stunned where she was.

She wanted to open her lips, but her choked throat couldn't utter a word.

So familiar, this sentence is so familiar.

The conversation continues.

"It's there, right? It has two ears and a head!"

"anything else?"

anything else?

These three short words blurred Xilin's vision and she could hardly see the picture clearly.

Who would have thought that these short words would be regarded by the stream as a bridge connecting John's past and future, and this question would last for half his life.

"There...are two feet!"

Unlike Celine who was about to cry, John in the picture was still pointing happily at the night sky.

"Yes, any more?"

"And, there is the moon. The moon is its round belly!"
