"Whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll get stabbed anyway. If you keep dragging your feet, you'll get nothing—" She said this very softly and very slowly.
"You're finally willing to look at me properly now, aren't you?"
She smiled brightly, a smile that was sunny and infectious.
Cold sweat beaded on Bai Weiran's forehead, and four words floated into his mind: "Nowhere to start."
No matter what he said, the girl who called herself Mingguang understood his answer, and she even approached him from the position of being able to anticipate all his answers and accept everything.
She has a yandere-like obsession, but she doesn't have the usual yandere emotional problems.
If she starts to lose control of her emotions when she is refuted or rejected, he will have an easier time dealing with her.
But now—
Seeing Bai Weiran's serious expression, Mingguang narrowed her heterochromatic eyes and smiled as she put her sunglasses back on.
"It's okay, this is fine for today."
"Ranran spotted Mingguang and even spoke to him."
"As long as I can talk to Ranran, today's task will be completed."
She stopped her approaching steps, and the two of them were now standing at the entrance of the police station.
Yes, Bai Weiran knew there was a police station in this alley from the moment he turned into it.
His original plan was for her to make a scene and lose control of her emotions; it would be even better if she carried a weapon, so he could catch her a stalker red-handed and call the police.
He felt no guilt whatsoever in sending a beautiful young woman to jail.
But she didn't make a scene; she remained calm and smiling, and Bai Weiran's plan failed miserably.
"Well, I'll give Ranran more opportunities to get to know me in the future."
Mingguang waved to him, turned and left, not forgetting to blow him a kiss, his back lightly skipping and hopping.
The female police officer on duty looked up from inside and thought the couple was quite cute.
Nana tilted her head slightly next to Bai Weiran.
She was completely confused. She had initially thought that the person following Mr. William must be a bad person, a paparazzi, or a sasaeng fan.
But how can bad people, paparazzi, and sasaeng fans give up so easily?
And she's also very cute—
Nana always follows Xiaoxi around. Having seen so many overreactions from paparazzi and stalker fans, she no longer sees anything wrong with Mingguang.
Bai Weiran felt there was a problem.
Being followed by a strange stalker, his values didn't follow his physical appearance—
Reporting the incident to the police is impossible, as it's difficult to establish a case without concrete evidence of personal injury or illegal trespassing.
Bai Weiran walked past the police station and into the other end of the alley, frowning in deep thought.
Xx
On the television screen, the weather anchor was reporting heavy thunderstorms that night, reminding people to keep their doors and windows tightly closed.
In the mountains on the outskirts of the city, a large hole was made in the wall of the Ming family's house, and the wind and rain howled in. All the power was cut off, and only the flashes of lightning could illuminate the wooden Gundam standing in the hole, which was still touching the ceiling even when it was bowed down.
It appeared and disappeared intermittently as the electric light flickered.
One cannon on the left and two on the chest—three cannon barrels in total—were aimed at the parents and daughter who were trembling and embracing each other on the ground. The cannon barrels hummed and vibrated as they were injected with energy.
"Whether you stick your neck out or not, you'll get cut anyway; if you keep dragging your feet, you'll get nothing."
Xia Yanle's voice rang out in the darkness, as cold as a soft knife, directed at the petite figure standing stiffly beside the giant.
"The person who wants to hurt you is right here. I'm giving you your chance."
"...Tell me what you want to do!!"
The girl looked up, and the lightning flashed, illuminating her pale, panicked expression and heterochromatic eyes.
Xia Yanle leaned to the side of the cockpit, looking at her with a slight smile.
The subject of the mission, Mingguang, was born in a way that was different from other children.
Mingguang has an older sister who was born with a hereditary disease. Her parents were originally well-known medical experts in another country. They tried everything they could to save their eldest daughter's life and donated her organs. Through scientific methods, they had Mingguang. Because of genetic technology, Mingguang has developed a rare heterochromia.
Abnormal parents, abnormal love.
Although they share the same genes, all the love is concentrated on one person.
Later, their transplant plan in Mingguang was discovered and reported by a friend. The country's child welfare agency planned to intervene forcibly, and the parents fled to the suburbs.
Mingguang has no friends, no identity, and lives hidden in the mountains on the outskirts of the city.
She had no opportunity to receive an education, and her parents had no intention of disciplining her. Her knowledge was limited to fairy tales, which she had to secretly listen to her parents telling to her older sister by the window. She was very poor at recognizing characters and lagged behind her peers, so she couldn't understand the Three Character Classic at all.
But she played in the mountains and forests every day, and her physical fitness level was far superior to that of ordinary people.
The only requirement Mingguang's parents had for her was that she be healthy, while constantly telling her that her purpose in life was to live for her older sister.
Mingguang is a born yandere, and her thirst for love is different from that of ordinary people. She loves her parents first and wants to give to them unconditionally. But Mingguang is not stupid. When she sees the difference in her parents' attitudes towards her sister and herself, Mingguang realizes that she is not treated as a "daughter" or even as a "person".
She was torn by pain and caught in a dilemma.
However, children's emotional awareness and understanding of the world are too limited.
You can leave them.
Mingguang couldn't have imagined it, nor could he have done it.
She didn't have the courage.
Later, she met Xiao Weiran.
She is like a child when facing authority figures, naturally timid, evasive, and ingratiating. But when facing Xiao Weiran, she displays an unusually yandere side, bewitching and imprisoning Xiao Weiran.
Xia Yanle could completely understand why Mingguang liked Bai Weiran.
Bai Weiran himself doesn't understand, but all the yandere girls do.
He was utterly unafraid of monsters; neither fear, panic, cowardice, timidity, nor profound emotions could diminish his reason and humanity. Moreover, this peculiarity only grew more captivating with age and experience.
The yanderes all seized upon this uniqueness and flocked to it.
She had previously discussed this task with Mr. Weiran, and he gave her a lot of advice.
They are all very insightful and logically consistent.
But in Xia Yanle's opinion—it was all too slow.
He's the companion type, very patient, but not the right fit for her.
One of the reasons for her impatience is related to Xia Yanle herself, because she uses the platform's energy to build Gundams and fire cannons to blast riverbanks all day long, causing her energy bar to quickly run out of power. Now, every time she enters a mission world, she sees her energy bar and her almost dead phone battery, both burning red, which makes her anxious.
With each level drop, warning alerts blare incessantly, a deadly barrage.
She's squandered all the platform's potential; now she's just a lowly employee rushing to deliver results, wanting only quick profits.
She looked at Mingguang and lightly tapped the edge of the cockpit with one finger.
Today it was just the two of them; she left Mr. Xiao Weiran on the riverbank.
Because she wanted to see what Mingguang would do.
Xia Yanle doesn't dislike Mingguang; in fact, she appreciates people who know their stuff.
But if someone who knows the value of a product doesn't deserve it and still tries to reach out, she feels that her own possessions are being defiled.
She pointed to the trembling middle-aged man and woman.
"They are your parents, but they want you dead."
She then pointed to the pale girl in the middle.
"She's your sister, but she wants your organs."
"Come on, choose one of the two! I'll eliminate either one for you, and you'll be free from worry from now on."
Xia Yanle shrugged.
The more I think about the emotional stream between people, the more confused I become.
She just wanted to solve the problem.
Xia Yanle's seemingly offering Mingguang a choice between two options is actually a trap.
She wanted to test where Mingguang's bottom line was regarding human life—
If, faced with a choice between killing her parents or her sister, Mingguang only struggles with whether to kill them, it means she has completely bypassed a basic principle—human life.
This little yandere has crossed the line of human life; she absolutely cannot be allowed to live.
This goes against Mr. Weiran's philosophy. Keeping him alive for the future is like a time bomb, which will cause trouble for Mr. Weiran, himself, Xiaomengmeng, and Ms. Qin whom he has not yet met.
Mingguang slowly raised his hand.
Xia Yanle's fingers also stopped tapping on the edge of the cockpit.
As expected... we can't keep them?
The girl's fingers moved between the three trembling figures, her small lips shaking, her face pale. Finally, she lowered her hand, tightly gripping the tattered hem of her skirt, suppressing and enduring the temptation as she pushed it away.
"No—I won't choose anyone—"
"...Because Xiaoran and I made a pinky promise. He said, he said...as long as I respect others from now on, in the future...he...he is still willing to be my friend."
"Mom and Dad, it's true, I was born for my sister's sake..."
"...But my father, mother and sister haven't hurt me yet, I have no...no reason to kill them."
Xia Yanle let out a soft "Oh."
Mr. Xiao Weiran, I didn't expect you to still be useful. I misunderstood you before.
“But even if you don’t hurt them and stay with them, they will hurt you sooner or later,” she warned.
"In reality, being a saint doesn't end well, unless the screenwriter gives you a cheat code. Now that I'm helping you, you won't be responsible for anyone's death. Are you sure—?"
Xiao Mingguang bit her lip, her eyes suddenly darkening as she was pushed to the limit by the temptation of the two choices and the fear that had haunted her since childhood.
"Then Mingguang doesn't want them anymore!!"
