Xingtie, my life is like walking on thin ice

She is very stubborn and won't give up so easily.

Sometimes she would listen to Zhuqing's advice because she couldn't make up her mind.

If she has already made up her mind, it will be difficult for Zhu Qing to persuade her.

"What they're doing isn't just manipulating dreams. Right now, the relationship between dreams and reality is in a very delicate state. None of us can guarantee what the consequences will be if we wake up from a dream."

Zhu Qing said softly, in other words, he couldn't even be sure whether he would die if he died in the dream now.

"I've thought about it, but I believe I can do it."

Liuying stared at Zhuqing with her beautiful big eyes, not blinking. "Remember what we said before? I want to fight alongside you, instead of relying on you to solve all the problems like I do now."

"Zhu Qing, I also have things I can do."

"..."

She is serious.

Zhu Qing sighed.

After being together for so long, how could he not understand the little firefly's thoughts? It's just that people always have selfish motives, just like what Firefly is thinking now.

Similarly, Zhu Qing did not want to see the girl in danger, but for people like them, as long as they continued on this path, danger would be commonplace for them.

Risking your life to do something is just a common thing.

As long as he still had to solve this matter, he had no reason to persuade Liuying not to do anything dangerous.

Forcibly stopping the girl would have no effect other than making the relationship between the two of them more strained.

She wouldn't listen. Every time the girl in front of her asked a question, it was an affirmative statement, and she would definitely do so.

"Life is a precious thing. We shouldn't waste it even in our dreams."

"Just this once."

The girl said again.

Zhu Qing laughed out loud, "You've learned to lie."

"..."

"If it really comes to the point where I need you to deliver the message, I will ask you to do so, but before that, please use my method first, okay?"

Hearing this, the little firefly smiled.

"Good~"

......

The two of them caught up with the robin.

"Sorry for the wait."

"It'll only take a few minutes."

The robin shook his head, not caring, and did not ask what the two talked about.

If they could tell, they wouldn't hide it from themselves.

"Where should we go now?"

"Go find someone."

Zhu Qing looked at Shen Ming who was lying in the distance.

"The Black Swan of Remembering."

As for everyone else…

If Poteo noticed anything unusual, he would make corresponding preparations without being reminded. Although he liked to drink until he was drunk, it did not mean that he was not clear-headed.

On the contrary, he was very smart and his intuition led him through many dangers.

Out of trust, Zhu Qing believed that he could overcome many difficulties and find what he should do.

This trust was not blind faith. Like himself, Potio was a person who traveled alone in the galaxy most of the time. Perhaps Zhuqing was better in combat power, but when it came to unique skills, that guy was no worse.

As for Hua Huo, Zhu Qing didn't plan to look for her again. She had all the scripts under her control. If she wanted to help, she would have found him now.

But now that she doesn't show up, it's obvious that she feels that she has completed control of the situation as a director and doesn't intend to come out to guide the "actors" anymore.

“With her help, we were able to save ourselves a lot of unnecessary trouble.”

"But...that Rememberer, will she help?"

"She will."

Zhu Qing walked up to Chen Mian and patted his head gently.

"Big guy, I'll ask you for help once more. After this is over, I'll give you a gift."

"Gift?"

The bird behind was a little curious.

"Let's talk about it after this is over. Otherwise, if we say it now and don't keep our promise, wouldn't it be a breach of trust?"

As he spoke, Zhu Qing turned his back and looked at the two of them.

"See you outside."

After saying that, he closed his eyes.

Chenmian is a very responsible driver. As long as you can talk to it, it will responsibly take people to where they should go, and it has never made a mistake.

Zhu Qing had experienced this feeling of being pierced many times. Now when he experienced it again, he just felt a little darkness in front of his eyes.

After he came to his senses, he opened his eyes.

In just a moment, Zhu Qing's eyes became alert. He looked at the completely different scenes around him, and his right hand had already grasped the hilt of the knife.

"I thought you would fight me fairly."

Zhu Qing spoke while sensing his surroundings.

Pinocchio Theatre.

Robin had once brought him to this place secretly. If it weren't for the familiar decoration here, Zhuqing would never have recognized it.

Has it been transformed using the power of [Order]?

"That has always been my plan, but I'd prefer to avoid fighting if possible."

Sunday's voice also rang out, and his figure appeared outside a dangerous range.

Putting aside his identity as the mastermind behind Sunday's incident, he did act like a gentleman.

Kind, equal, like a church priest.

This kind of kindness was condescending. Zhu Qing didn't know how he felt about it, but at least he didn't like it.

Zhu Qing put down his hand, "Your current state is not like what you planned."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhuqing."

Sunday had one hand behind his back and looked very solemn.

"I invited you here just to have a chat with you."

"Okay, I'm also curious. At this point, what else is there for us to talk about?"

"A lot, like I'll try to convince you."

Hearing Zhou Li's words, Zhu Qing couldn't help but laugh.

"I take back what I said about you before. You're quite good at telling jokes."

"I know this seems a bit far-fetched, but we have to try it to find out, right?"

Sunday made a gesture of invitation.

Zhu Qing didn't hesitate and followed.

"Since we want to talk, do you mind if I ask some questions?"

"Of course, maybe you can try to convince me."

The two walked almost side by side.

"What the robin said is true. You are indeed a very charming person. It has nothing to do with the heroic deeds you have done. Just based on this character, you are already one of the best among the people I have met."

"Thanks for the compliment."

The two chatted casually like friends.

"If you and I weren't destined to be on opposite sides, I would really like to make friends with someone like you."

"A lot of people say that, and honestly, I don't understand it."

Zhu Qing said this casually. This statement was not false. Not only his friends, but many of his enemies would also say this.

Zhou Ri didn't look away as they walked in the corridor. Even though they had been walking for a while, it still seemed like there was no end.

"It's easy to understand. Idealists like Mr. Zhuqing shine too brightly."

"Idealist...it's a rather retro word."

Zhu Qing did not deny that firmly following one's own path had no direct connection with whether one was an idealist, just like a robin.

She seems more like a pure idealist, but she will also put her ideals into action.

It looks a bit silly, but also very admirable.

"I've also learned a lot about Mr. Zhuqing's deeds. You are a well-deserved hero. But Mr. Zhuqing, have you ever thought about what will happen to those you saved after you, the hero, leave?"

Sunday stopped and in the distance was the stage he had built.

"What will happen to those planets after you leave?"

"For better, for worse, and always the same."

In Zhuqing's opinion, this is not a question worth thinking about because the answer is obvious.

"I have."

Sunday said calmly, "Most of the planets you saved only improved for a short period of time. Afterwards, they either remained the same as before or headed towards a deeper abyss."

"In your opinion, what is the meaning of such a rescue?"

Zhuqing glanced at Zhou Ri.

"Before you answer this question, let me ask you a question."

"Appreciate further details."

There was no rush on Sunday, and he had plenty of time to chat with Zhuqing.

"Each of us begins to die from the moment we are born. In your opinion, are we born into this world just to die?"

"of course not."

Sunday shook his head.

Zhu Qing laughed.

"Whether immortal or short-lived, even the almighty Star Gods, no one can escape death. In a sense, death is fair; it hangs over each of us equally."

“Since the destination has been determined, all we can do is to live the life we want within this limited destination, relying on our own choices.”

"Hope is something that exists but is also illusory. I can't give them hope for the future, but at least at that moment, I can give them the power to choose."

"..."

“Very unique insights.”

Sunday exclaimed in admiration.

"Just as I expected, hindering you from the moment we reached Pinocchio was the right decision."

Zhu Qing slowly typed a question mark.

Obstruction from the beginning?

It took him several seconds to react, and his tone was a little strange.

"So, you deliberately arranged those holidays for the robin?"
