I, enter the zero world, change the ending

"Oh, yes. Okay then. My name is Sikong Zhiyao."

"Then I'll call you Mr. Sikong, or classmate Sikong."

It felt so formal. Zhiyao sighed softly, "Why be so serious? Just call me by my name."

"Does Mr. Sikong think we're close enough to call each other by our first names?" Shen Hong asked in an undeniable tone, adding at the end, "You can also call me Hinasaki from now on."

"Let me make a deal. Can I just call you Shenhong?" Zhiyao asked weakly.

"No!" Shenhong rolled her eyes at him and refused firmly.

"Okay, then call me Hinasaki. Hehe, I'll be leaving first, Hinasaki."

Shenhong nodded and waved goodbye gently. Then she remembered something and called Zhiyao again, "Excuse me, what do you do for a living?"

Madoka hasn't seen anyone for almost four days in a row, and is isolated at school as usual. Although she is afraid to confide in others, deep down in her heart, she still retains a certain desire to communicate with others, and there just happens to be someone in front of her who is determined to make her her friend.

"Why don't you guess?" Zhiyao crossed his arms and leaned against the lamppost.

"You should be older than me, a college student, right?"

Hearing this, Zhiyao lowered his head sadly and sighed in frustration, "I can only say that it used to be..."

"What do you mean?" Shen Hong didn't understand why this person suddenly became so depressed. "Did he drop out of school for some reason?"

"Yes and no, you wouldn't understand anyway."

As she spoke, Zhiyao couldn't help but smile bitterly. Every family has its own problems. Shenhong thought about it for a moment and decided not to ask about it for the time being.

"So what do you do every day now? You always seem to have a lot of free time."

The two palms immediately came together, and Zhiyao grinned.

"Master Sanhe."

Sanhe God? What is that?

Sanhe wasn't quite sure, as for the Great God, Crimson Heart said that since it was linked to the word "God", he should be some kind of clergyman, which means that this person works in a shrine or temple.

"There happens to be a shrine in this city. Do you work there?" Shenhong asked.

Obviously she misunderstood, and in this world she naturally didn't know that it was actually some kind of joke.

"So you don't understand, huh?" Zhiyao laughed, her face turned away in amusement. "The Sanhe Gods are... well, let me tell you the truth. They're people with neither a stable job nor a fixed place to live. They sleep wherever they feel tired, and only work for day wages. They usually work one day and play three days."

"Isn't that a homeless person?" Shenhong suddenly realized.

She also found it very interesting that this person could actually link homeless people with the word "God".

"Tsk, don't be so blunt."

"Any other relevant characteristics?"

"I have to drink a large bottle of mineral water for two yuan, and eat a bowl of noodles for three yuan, which is about 40 and 60 yen in Japanese yen."

"I've never seen such low prices." Shen Hong couldn't help but sigh, then realized something was wrong. "But you don't look like a homeless person. At least you're dressed cleanly."

“It hasn’t reached that point yet.”

"Or you should find a job quickly."

"I've already told you that I have my own difficulties. You won't understand anyway... I can still hold on for now. When I really can't, I'll go open the treasure chest."

"Open the treasure chest?"

I always feel that this is another statement that does not match the literal meaning. Shenhong's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his eyes conveyed the message that an explanation was needed quickly.

"It means looking through the trash can."

It turned out to be this, and to think that such a thing could be said so humorously. Crimson, having been successfully amused, suddenly turned her face away and almost laughed out loud.

During this period of chatting, Shenhong found that her mood was indescribably good, so much so that her favorability towards the man in front of her had increased a little. She inadvertently remembered that this man said yesterday that he had not eaten for three consecutive days. Based on the principle of helping in any way possible and driven by her kind nature, Shenhong took out her wallet.

"Did you spend the 200 yuan I borrowed from you at noon?"

"No, I plan to eat later."

"How about this? Yesterday afternoon you saved me, and this afternoon I instigated you to go to the police station..." Shen Hong said as she counted out three thousand-yuan bills from her wallet. "I haven't formally thanked you yet, so how about I lend you some more money? And you should find a job as soon as possible and pay me back when you get paid."

As for whether the other party might disappear after receiving the money...

Anyway, she only borrowed it this time. If the person on the other side really was that kind of person, then she could only say that she had made a mistake.

Besides, the 3000 yen was originally going to be taken away by the bad classmate who bullied her. She felt it was not a loss to bet on the bad classmate's character with the money that was recovered by the bad classmate.

"Are you sure you want to give it to me?!" Suspecting that he had heard it wrong, Zhiyao rubbed his ears to clear his ear canal.

Seeing Crimson nod, his heart rate soared with excitement.

"How can you be so kind!"

"Well, it's mainly because I feel..." Shenhong felt a little embarrassed and turned away shyly.

"Since you are so filial, I can only accept it with a smile." Zhiyao was so proud of herself that she started to make jokes without restraint.

As soon as these words were spoken, the deep red face fell in an instant.

"I changed my mind. You should go open the treasure chest."

"Don't worry, I was wrong. I'm so magnanimous..."

After a while, almost half an hour had passed. When she came to her senses, it was almost half past seven. Thinking that it was almost time to go home, Shenhong waved her hand and turned around.

"Hey, Hinasaki."

Zhiyao's voice came from behind.

"Ok?"

"I'll go to your school tomorrow."

She opened her deep red lips slightly, and was about to say something when she was immediately stopped by the words "It's a deal."

Then Zhiyao left quickly without giving her a chance to speak.

Soon, the boy's figure disappeared at the end of the street. Shenhong continued to stare at him until he could no longer see him, and then he sighed meaningfully.

I am really entangled.

I don't know why, but I actually feel a little bit of anticipation.

……

It was almost eight o'clock when I got home and the room was pitch dark.

Walking into the living room and looking at the dining table, Shenhong found that the table cover had no signs of being moved. She lifted the cover and saw that the dinner belonging to Zhendong was still intact.

"elder brother……"

Have you found Mr. Gao Feng?

Can you come back tonight?

It’s been four days since I left, why is there still no news?

A strong sense of loss came over her heart. Shenhong sighed and put the dinner into the refrigerator one by one. The silent room was as empty as her heart.

When my brother is not around, I always feel like I have no interest in doing anything.

Turning on the TV, Shenhong sat on the sofa, staring at the screen with boredom, occasionally switching channels. Gradually, she shifted from sitting upright to lying on her side, and finally curled up into a ball. As time went on, she even started yawning. Suddenly, she remembered that she hadn't finished her homework, so she pulled out her workbook and pen from her bag and began writing quickly.

It was eleven o'clock, time to take a bath, but Mafuyu still hadn't come home.

Turning off the TV, Shenhong walked into the bathroom and turned on the hot water shower.

The gurgling water hits the ground, making a splashing sound. The bathroom is filled with white mist, like a paradise connecting the human world and the heaven.

At half past eleven, after finishing her bath, Shenhong dried her body and hair and changed into pink pajamas.

It was already late autumn at the end of September, and the air was chilly. Shenhong covered her body with a blanket, curled up into a ball, and pricked up her ears to listen for any movement at the door and the next room.

"You really won't be back tonight."

Even though I am used to loneliness, being alone at home for a long time is still a bit indescribable.

At this moment, a female ghost with long flowing hair flew past the window.

As if she had sensed something, the female ghost turned around and came back, placed her two palms on the window surface, and stared into the room with her creepy empty eyes. Shenhong had noticed this situation long before she was discovered. At this time, she was quietly hiding in the quilt, holding her breath and waiting for the female ghost to leave.

Soon, the female ghost left. Shenhong got up, closed the curtains, lay back on the bed and stared at the ceiling, her vision becoming increasingly blurred.

……

The endless horizontal plane, with a huge orange-red setting sun hanging in the sky. Standing in the water about knee-deep, Zhiyao stared at the sky, his dark pupils reflecting the orange glow.

A dark shadow with a human outline passed by, making Zhiyao, whose figure was clearly visible, look out of place. As her sight moved from the high school to the front, the next moment, a white figure appeared in the distance. Zhiyao widened her eyes and looked carefully, recognizing that it was 23-year-old Hinasaki Shinku through her hairstyle and clothes.

At the same time, a deep red voice appeared in my ears like magic.

"I've been able to see things that don't exist since I was a kid, and only my brother can understand my pain."

Following the sound, Zhiyao involuntarily took a step forward.

"At that time, my brother chose to stay there, and I was the only one who survived."

However, no matter how he stepped forward, even though he was sure that he was moving forward, the distance between him and Crimson did not shorten at all.

“If I could, I would go back to that time.”

His sixth sense was telling him that Shenhong was about to disappear. Zhiyao was so anxious that he was at a loss, like an ant on a hot pan.

"If I could see you again, even just for a moment, I would..."

The crimson figure began to fade, and its presence became blurred.

Zhiyao gritted his teeth unwillingly and took a deep breath.

"Wait--"

"Give me--------"

“Wait a minute————————————————————————————————————————!”

Finally, the resistance of the water miraculously disappeared, and he began to run at full speed, walking in the water as if it were flat ground.

There are still ten meters left.

Five meters left.

Three meters left.

one meter.

He stretched out his hand, almost unable to stand.

Just as the fingertips were about to touch Shenhong's shoulder, Shenhong disappeared.

The endless horizontal plane, with a huge orange-red setting sun hanging in the sky, was empty in this space except for a young man who was in collapse and on the verge of despair, and his wails of pain.

……

"what!"

When he woke up, Zhiyao's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He sat up suddenly and looked around for a moment, and his fear gradually disappeared.

But his heart could no longer be calm.

The night he first traveled here, Mafuyu had already walked into the Himuro residence in front of him, and it was Shenhong's turn next.

Entering the Himuro residence is the beginning of everything.

The huge gear that drives the girl's tragic fate has begun to turn.

Chapter 9: [Her destiny was rewritten by him]

At four o'clock in the morning, the streets were deserted, with only the street lamps emitting a soft orange light.

The scene in the dream was so vivid that Zhiyao could no longer fall asleep.

According to the planned plot, there are still nearly six years before Shenhong disappears. Zhiyao feels depressed when he thinks that the girl he finally has an intersection with is sentenced to death in advance.

But what should I do next? Do I really have to experience the feeling of helplessness in the dream again in reality?
