Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

Lin Wei had recalled his life and faced his past many times before, but never once was it as direct, as specific, and as overwhelming as it is now.

He once thought he had let it go, but when those memories he had experienced, forgotten, unforgettable, pretended to forget, or couldn't forget reappeared before his eyes like holographic images,

Those memories and feelings buried deep in your soul and engraved in your cell's DNA, along with those images, sounds and smells, make you feel the pain, joy, happiness or sadness again.

The leaf that connected the complete memory had been crushed by Lin Wei. Without the key, the information that constituted the complete memory disintegrated into indistinguishable colors, images, and sounds, and merged into the vast ocean. It was impossible to find it again without having time to trace it.

The demon that had always existed in Lin Wei's heart and was awakened by the memory did not calm down with the ebb of the memory. Instead, it kept roaring, requiring Lin Wei to use more energy to soothe it until it became quiet again.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. But you know I'm not a good person, so just think of it as accompanying me to watch a few good shows."

Lin Wei walked in front with great interest, strolling casually in this bizarre world, looking for something with a clear goal, and picking up one or two pieces from the colorless black and white ocean. He would either marvel at it and say that such a thing had ever happened, or he would rack his brains and ponder, but could not remember which puzzle piece this piece belonged to.

The Herr followed behind, watching Lin Wei as excited as a child playing with his favorite toy, sometimes talking to himself, shouting, sometimes excitedly holding up a puzzle piece and running to him, then laughing as he talked about his dark history in the past.

Looking at his excited and nonchalant expression, it was as if he was telling other people's stories instead of his own dark history.

The Herrscher was somewhat confused about what he was trying to do.

She had indeed looked through Lin Wei's memories, but that was a purposeful search for information. She would just glance at the content she didn't care about, or simply put it aside. So what she experienced today, the memory scenes she saw, as well as the Lin Wei who was as excited as a child now, and the Lin Wei who was as crazy as a demon just now, were all things she had seen for the first time.

Lin Wei was right. I really didn't understand him. This time I got into trouble...

No, it’s still unfair!

The lawyers are still indignant.

"Ling, come and look at this, I found something fun!"

Lin Wei, who was running far away, was waving something excitedly in his hand and shouting at her from a distance.

The Herrscher rolled his eyes and pretended not to hear.

Are you here to play a treasure hunt?

I lost to such a thing?

The Herrscher felt more and more aggrieved and felt that his loss was even more unfair!

Seeing that the Herrscher ignored him, Lin Wei was not angry. He smiled and moved closer to the Herrscher with a shameless face. He held a small object in his hand in front of the Herrscher and said mysteriously again,

"Ling, let me show you something fun."

Now she couldn't pretend not to see it. Ling looked down in confusion and was immediately furious. It turned out to be a small orange skirt!

tease me?

"Where did you steal it from? You stole a little girl's skirt? Lin Wei, do you have any manners at all? Do you have any morals at all? You are disgusting! Vulgar! Despicable!"

The Herrscher's defenses were completely broken, and he could no longer pretend to be cold and cruel. He simply combined all his new and old grudges and started cursing.

Of course, the Herrschers 50,000 years ago were of high quality, and their vocabulary of insults was extremely clean.

Now Lin Wei was unhappy. You can say that I am not a good person, but you can’t say that I am a gangster. This is slander!

"Don't be excited, don't be excited..."

Lin Wei quickly explained and tried hard to maintain the little reputation he had left.

"This is my own stuff, a rather absurd experience, but quite interesting, so I showed it to you to have fun. Who knew you wouldn't appreciate it and even slander me? It really makes me sad..."

shut up!

The Herrscher glared at me and said, “I shouldn’t have taken up this conversation!”

"Forget it, I won't explain it. Just let you see it for yourself..."

Lin Wei unfolded the orange skirt in her hand, which was a child's dress for little girls of four or five years old. She used it as a key to unlock a memory, and angrily wanted to prove her innocence to the Lawgiver and wash away her grievances.

The Herrscher glanced at it from the side, and it was just that...

How strange! Let me take another look.

The scene in my memory is in a bedroom. A little boy stood on tiptoe to open the door of the closet, and struggled to find clothes to wear the next morning. Then he pulled out a pile of colorful clothes from the corner. They were obviously for girls, red and yellow brightly colored clothes, and skirts with cute patterns.

The little boy was very confused, wondering if he had a sister or a younger sister. So he picked up an orange skirt and ran to his mother's bedroom.

"Tsk, no one knew what happened at the time. Who knows if the nurse said something wrong when she left the delivery room, or if my grandparents who were waiting outside the delivery room misheard what the nurse said. In short, for quite a long time, a large group of relatives in my family thought that my parents had given birth to a daughter..."

Lin Wei had a strange look on his face. It was unclear whether he was angry or thought it was fun. Anyway, he explained the whole story in a strange tone. Then he stretched out his hand and switched to another picture.

A little boy of three or four years old was running up and down in the large yard where neighbors gathered in a sky blue skirt. He even showed off to the neighbor's sister that his blue skirt looked prettier than hers.

Lin Wei, who was outside the screen, looked up at the sky in shame, and covered his eyes with one hand with a "snap".

This is so embarrassing. What happened? This is all...

So weird, please give me more...

The Herrscher suddenly became interested.

"That's what happened. A bunch of relatives gave our family a bunch of little girls' clothes, toys, and even hair bands... Hey, half of the closet over there is filled with them."

Lin Wei brought the scene back to the bedroom and pointed to the open wardrobe.

Then he felt that he had explained everything clearly, Le Zi had been shown to Ling, and most of the people had been thrown away. He grinned at the little skirt in his hand and threw it towards the memory picture in an unlucky manner.

As soon as the skirt slipped out of her hands, it disappeared along with the memory image, turning into a chaotic stream of information that merged into the sea.

"It seems that you were loved by everyone when you were a child."

The Herrscher said this half sarcastically and half sincerely.

Having just watched such a lively comedy, the Herrscher felt that it would be a shame for the cheerful atmosphere if he did not speak up.

This is so weird, it seems like I’ve been cheated again?

The Herr was unsure, but she didn't want to think too much about it. Because she was more concerned about another thing.

She had roughly read Lin Wei's memories, and his life was clearly not like this.

That kind of deep madness and malice is obviously more like a Herrscher than myself!

It was clearly revealed just now, wasn't it?

He should be the same as me...

But why does it look different?

The Herr was a little confused. Could it be that he was deceived again?

But Lin Wei had clearly said before that he empathized with him. And the sudden burst of crazy killing intent that seemed to be real was obviously not fake, so what could he say?

Not sure, check again.

The Herrscher followed without saying a word. This time she no longer resisted, nor did she pretend not to hear. She wanted to observe the soul of this bastard carefully.

"Which memory is next?"

Lin Wei seemed to really treat this trip as an adventure, and set off for the next destination with great enthusiasm.

The Herrscher followed silently behind him, keeping quiet.

She shouldn't have been curious about the past experiences of a mere human being.

But Lin Wei was different. She couldn't ignore this strange man. This seemingly ordinary human had indisputably defeated her. Because of this, she couldn't ignore the opportunity to explore his soul.

"Hey, a candlelight? What is this?"

Lin Wei was walking forward when he was suddenly attracted by a flickering fire in his peripheral vision. He let out a light exclamation, then turned and walked in that direction.

Anyway, we are all exploring our own memories. In this torrent of memories where time and space have no meaning, it is the same no matter where we go.

Lin Wei silently passed through countless colorless and black and white fragments of memories, his eyes fixed on the warm candlelight, which flickered continuously, as joyful as a child, and was therefore so eye-catching. Lin Wei felt that his heart was also leaping along with the flame.

He walked up to the fire, took a deep breath, and carefully reached out to touch it.

Lin Wei could feel that from here on, he would find what he was really looking for.

As Lin Wei reached out and touched it, the flame was no longer a flame, but turned into a birthday cake with eight candles on it.

After all, this is a world of memory, and everything here is made up of information. It is not surprising that a piece of fragment will turn into a relatively complete memory as a whole. So Lin Wei just glanced at the changes in the objects in his hand and put all his attention on the picture in front of him.

It was the living room of a house. It was already night and all the lights in the room were turned off, but it was not dark because there was a large table in the middle of the room, filled with all kinds of delicious food, snacks, fruits, and sumptuous meals. In the middle of the table was an exquisite birthday cake with eight small candles on it, emitting warm orange light, making the whole room dim but extremely warm.

There were more than a dozen elders crowded around, and they all surrounded the smallest figure sitting in the middle like stars surrounding the moon. That was little Lin Wei. He was dressed up in his best clothes, wearing a paper crown on his head, and sitting in the middle of everyone to accept the most sincere blessings from the elders.

But Xiao Lin Wei's expression did not look happy. Instead, she had a bitter face, which made her look very out of place amid the laughter and joy, and she also seemed very aggrieved.

He had a sad face, facing his uncle who was filming with a camera across the table. Then, as the camera light flashed, Xiao Lin Wei suddenly rubbed his face and smiled triumphantly. Then, as his uncle shouted "One more photo", he immediately put on a bitter face and stood up to face the camera.

"Xiao Wei, you should be happy when taking birthday photos."

The grandmother standing by gently coaxed her grandson after Lin Wei finished taking the photos. She was a little confused about what weird ideas this little guy had.

"Hehe, that's why I did it! Grandma, think about it, when I grow up, I'll show these photos to others. They will definitely ask, 'Why do you have that expression in this photo?' Then I'll tell them the whole story, and their expressions will definitely be very funny!"

"Oh my, it's Xiao Wei after all. This little brain is different from other children. He will definitely be an extraordinary person when he grows up!"

"..."

Lin Wei outside the screen quietly watched this warm family gathering at night, without saying a word, with a trance-like expression, as if recalling a memory.

I was so naive back then, thinking that my family was beautiful, the world was beautiful, and the future would be beautiful too.

Unfortunately……

Those photos that we promised to keep for the future no longer exist!

Looking at the little self in the picture holding the biggest piece of cake given to him, carefully scraping off the cream on it and disdainfully giving it to others, Lin Wei suddenly laughed softly and picked up the piece of cake in his hand, which was exactly the same as the one he had had back then.

Lin Wei reached out and picked up a little bit of cream, then carefully put it into her mouth.

Oh, still so sweet...

Lin Wei recalled that when she was a child, she always thought the cream on the cake was too sweet and greasy, so she only ate the dry cake at the bottom.

Tsk, what a waste...

Lin Wei let out a long sigh, carefully feeling his throbbing heart, and smiled as he explained to the Herrscher who followed him.

"I was born with a rather strange way of thinking, and I always have all kinds of strange ideas, so I looked different from other children since I was a child. I am the only child of my parents, and they would take me with them wherever they go. I am also the youngest among all the children of my relatives, so my brothers and sisters would give in to me. In addition, I was more sensible when I was a child. Although I was naughty, I didn't make much trouble, so I was more liked by relatives and elders..."

"Over time, it became what it is now."

Lin Wei pointed at the heartwarming scene behind him, but had no interest in looking back.

He sighed again, then smiled and said to the Herrscher, "Look, even I almost forgot that I was so happy when I was a child!"

Although he was smiling, his tone was extremely cold.

It was an undisguised mockery, as if mocking one's own former self-righteousness, and as if mocking the hypocritical nature of the world.

The Herrscher said nothing, for she knew that this was just the beginning.

Ling's literary literacy is not bad. She knows that "to praise something, one must first criticize it" or "to criticize something, one must first praise it". After all, that's often how the story goes.

"So, where are your parents?"

The Herrscher carefully looked around at everyone at the birthday party and asked a very crucial question.

Chapter 31: Ugly Lin Wei

"So, where are your parents?"

Lin Wei was stunned for a moment, and had to look back at the warm scene that he hated again, carefully recalling the situation at that time, then laughed and said,

"My father was probably drinking with friends, or was he at work? I don't remember. I just know that he is usually not welcome at such family gatherings. The whole family you see are all 'relatives' from my mother's side."

Lin Wei emphasized the word "relatives" very heavily, and his sarcasm was so thick that it seemed tangible.

"As for my dear mother, she is probably playing mahjong right now, right? She always has this hobby, playing mahjong all night long. Hey, let me show you a picture."

Memory is magical. Even though it is a mixture of disordered information, there are always some intricate connections. Some of them do not even require a real connection in time and space. "Association" is also a method of retrieving memory.

Lin Wei suddenly thought of an earlier memory scene, smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and pulled it out completely.

This is another small room, just a single room, with a bed, a sofa, a desk, a water dispenser, and nothing else. There is not even a toilet, just like a prison, imprisoning a little boy alone.

This little boy is younger than Xiao Lin Wei who celebrated his birthday before, so it is obvious that the timeline is before this.

"Let me think, I was about six years old at that time, right? If I remember correctly, it should be the May Day holiday. My father was on a business trip during that time, and my mother took care of me alone. Then as you can see, she left me here alone, it seemed to be a friend's house, and she didn't know where to go to play mahjong!"

Lin Weixin walked into the picture, stood on the windowsill and looked down.

"Wow, it's at least six stories high, it's really high! Tsk tsk tsk, look at this window, there's not even any protection, aren't you afraid that I'll fall out of the window and die if I get too anxious?"
