First Player

Chapter 257 Chapter 255·"Dear, you must remember"

The drizzle like a bead curtain gradually formed a line, laying a heavy rain curtain outside the cave.

Inside the cave, the blood-red color was vividly dancing.

The shivering girl hugged her body, her head lowered, her whole body curled up, bright colors dancing on her hospital gown.

"Guilty, you say?" she asked.

"Yes." Su Mingan said, "Dongxue, have you ever regretted it in your heart?"

"..." Dongxue tilted her head.

She suddenly stood up.

The thin hospital gown clung to her body like pieces of paper, folding up as she stood up. Her wet black hair stuck to her cheek. She clenched her fists, her thin body trembling.

She sighed and stared at him with dark eyes.

“Is not wanting to grow up a disease?”

Her black hair was wet and clinging to her body. Under the large hospital gown, her exposed arms were covered with traces of electric shocks and whippings.

...It was a scar engraved in her skin and flesh, etched in the bottom of her heart.

…

[During the days of correction, Dongxue thought about committing suicide countless times. 】

[Later, she gradually discovered that a woman named Yang Xia appeared beside her. 】

…

Su Mingan's eyes wandered slightly, still thinking about the organization of the next sentence.

—— Then he saw Dongxue suddenly stepped forward and hugged him.

The moisture of the rain hit her face, her skin was covered with water stains, her hair scratched his neck, and the wrinkles in her thin clothes were extremely obvious.

At this time, there was nothing charming in his mind.

He knew that Dongxue loved Yangxia, and only Yangxia.

As a visitor from another world who came to the task halfway and talked nonsense for a long time for the last clue, he should not be the object of her affection.

His mind was still full of all kinds of newly organized words, but he didn't expect that the other person didn't say a word, just hugged him up and caught him off guard.

He didn't have any heartbeat feeling of being held, and his thoughts were extremely rational at this time.

——He was thinking about whether Dongxue's favorability would change due to his next behavior.

He was thinking rationally here, but the barrage exploded in an instant:

【Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit! 】

[nmd let him go! He is not your Yang Xia! Climb away——]

[Holy shit, am I the only one who envies Su Ming'an? 】

[Damn it, you didn’t forget that Dongxue is a boy, right? 】

[Oops, I suddenly don’t envy you anymore. 】

[Faced with this kind of transgender person... some words are really difficult to say. I don't know how to persuade this kind of person. I feel that pushing away will definitely reduce my favorability...]

[Dongxue is also quite pitiful. She just has a disease... a psychological disease. 】

【……】

Dongxue hugged him and closed her eyes.

Her arms seemed a little clammy, the flames did not dry her clothes, and she was shivering all over from the cold.

Su Mingan suddenly felt something was wrong.

The neck where Dongxue pressed against his shoulder seemed to have no Adam's apple.

He also felt that the softness against his body did not look like a male body.

"Yang Xia." She suddenly said softly, her voice trembling, as if she just wanted to ask for affirmation: "You are my creation, do you love me?"

When she asked "Do you love me?", her voice was on the verge of pleading, and every word was trembling violently.

…

[Yang Xia appears next to Dong Xue. 】

[But everyone is saying that Yang Xia is fake - she fell in love with her own illusory creation. 】

[Dongxue doesn’t believe it. 】

[She promised Yang Xia that they must live together forever. 】

[But Dongxue gradually discovered that Yang Xia would only persuade her to become better and mature. She confessed to the other party, but was rejected. 】

[Dongxue is very confused. 】

[——Why does the creation not love the Creator? 】

[——Why can’t her illusory creation do everything she wants? 】

…

"..." Su Mingan did not respond.

He was thinking about some possibility.

Some special clues gradually connected in his mind.

"——But, I don't want to grow up." Her mood suddenly fluctuated violently.

It was as if a tight string had been suddenly broken. She opened her red eyes, her whole body was shaking like a sieve, and her tone was hysterical:

"——If you grow up, if you abandon the past...I, I..."

Dongxue's movements became tighter and tighter.

She held him tightly, as if surrounding the whole world.

"Now, in the future, or in the longer future - I will never meet someone like Yang Xia again!"

She roared in pain.

"——I learned nothing from what she taught me, and I possess nothing from the qualities she possesses!"

"This kind of me, this kind of me..."

She closed her eyes and her body shivered with cold.

She had woken up from her late night dreams countless times and saw her figure standing in the brightest place.

Yang Xia raised his eyes, held up his umbrella, and seemed to stay where he was forever, looking at her.

——She has always been childish and has the sin of "not growing up" and the sin of being reprimanded by her parents.

But that person will always stay where he is, waiting for her. Like a blue whale that sank to the bottom of the sea with her, like a bird holding a branch for her.

——In this world where heterosexuals are not tolerated, she experienced an unspeakable secret love.

Across the long years, through cold, summer and winter.

"...Yang Xia." She said, "Stop trying to persuade me to mature."

There was a hint of cold pleading in her voice, as if she was afraid that he would reveal something.

"...Please, Yang Xia." She said, "...let me go."

Su Mingan smiled.

While Dongxue's mood was changing, the clues in his mind were already connecting.

As he pulled down her wide collar, he saw the condition of her neck.

Dongxue's skin is not delicate, it can even be said to be rough. There are even pinch marks left after abuse on the front of her neck, like a light red stroke.

…He confirmed that she didn’t have an Adam’s apple.

"But I already understand, Dongxue." His tone changed little by little.

Dongxue's body shook violently.

"Dongxue - am I really a figment of your imagination?" He spoke without stopping, and his tone was as decisive as a razor's edge.

Su Mingan knew that his behavior was cruel.

But he needed that last piece of clue, needed to clear away all the fog.

...Even if it hurts someone.

But he never had the [room] to choose to let someone go just because he felt sorry for them.

He looked at Dongxue, and the softness in his tone disappeared little by little.

"Dongxue - wake up." He said: "Admit who among us is the imaginary existence."

"Ding dong!"

The long-lost system voice rang in Su Mingan's ears.

The next second, as if some switch had been triggered, a series of system voices sounded in a queue.

"Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!——"

Like dominoes falling in an instant, the prompts of clues and links are endless.

He gradually cleared away the fog and saw the truth that he had ignored.

Dongxue's words echoed in his mind.

[...I have been looking for Yang Xia, looking for her every night. 】

[But she will grow up, mature, and leave me. 】

[…Why does my creation not love her Creator? 】
