Curtain 30 The Life of the Upright Fifth

Alice covered Yutong Juai's eyes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It was like a signal, and then before Yutong Shiai could make any moves, his senses were stripped away again. Sight, Hearing, Smell, Taste, Touch...... In the end, the only thing that impressed me was that before all this was lost, something seemed to have fallen into Yutong Shiai's arms.

Now that everything is back to zero again, Yutong Shiai is once again in endless darkness, and he knows that he will have to return to Alice's bedroom again. But he still haunts the object he had fallen into his arms.

He has bad conjectures.

Returning to this void and darkness for the third time, Yutong Shiai also began to summarize the situation just now. In the conversation with Alice just now, there was a third person interjecting. And the third person, both in terms of sound and content, is the first Alice who pushed Yutong Shiai into this space before.

The one who agreed with him to be together forever and forever. At that time, Yutong Shiai didn't notice the accent deliberately used by the other party, but now that I think about it, I will find that the other party seems to have bitten the word "I" very hard.

Two identical starts, and two different choices, make Alice react differently. But these changes are not only because Yutong Shiai has taken different measures and dialogues, but also because of the difference in [Alice]. If it's a different Alice, Yutong Shiai almost subconsciously reminds of Alice's birth ceremony.

Death to the upright.

The first deceased was the curious, and the curious who entered the paradise chased the beautiful scene, broke away from the team and lost his way, and was seduced by the clown with a Penglai jade branch and cut off his head.

As soon as I thought of this, Yutong Shiai felt more and more that the bad prediction just now seemed to have come to life. But for him, there was no way to change all this, all he could do was to stretch out his hand and push open the door that appeared in front of him.

The space in front of me is still Alice's bedroom, as always, unchanged. Yutong Shiai walked to the side of the bed, squatted down and stretched out his head to look, but there was still no trace of Langinus. So he got up and walked to the window. Outside the window is still a deep and damp enchanted forest under the bright and warm daylight, like the sneer of the witch's black cloak.

Then, Yutong Shiai calculated that it was almost over, and turned back, waiting for Alice to come from the corridor and appear outside the door, and then Alice showed a surprised expression.

"Ten loves?"

"It's me."

From here on, Yutong Shiai decided to change the conversation again, and Alice's eyebrows furrowed.

"What are you doing here, there's nothing interesting here."

Ah, there has been, change. Thoughts flashed in Yutong Shiai's eyes, this time the order was strictly based on the death of the righteous person that day, after the last curious Alice who kept asking questions, this was the innocent young Alice.

"No, it's not actually a boring place. In fact, it's a very interesting place for me to know. ”

Yutong Shiai smiled and shook her head. Alice listened to him, looked left and right around her room, and then pouted.

"There's something interesting about somewhere, and there's no desire to find out. Okay, Shiai, don't stay here, go, go out with me. ”

At the end of the girl's speech, she jumped for joy, as if she was very interested in going out, and then turned to run outside. But when Yutong Shiai heard this, he felt a chill on his back. He remembered why the first Alice had chosen to push him into the void.

"Love, Alice! Wait a minute! Don't go! ”

He hurriedly raised his hand and took two steps forward, and Alice, who heard his voice, stopped and turned her head suspiciously.

"What's wrong, Ten Love? Don't you want to go out with me? ”

Seeing that Alice's face rarely showed such a simple expression, Yutong Shiai scratched her head after looking at it twice.

"Hmm...... It's not, I'm just ...... Well, a little hungry, yes, a little hungry! ”

"Hungry? Hunger is the enemy, and that's true. ”

Alice nodded, with a serious expression. Yutong Shiai looked at the other party's troublesome appearance on the side, and smiled bitterly.

"So wait a minute, how about we get something to eat?"

"Yes. But first, don't drink alcohol. ”

Alice raised her finger seriously, and Yutong Shiai also breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, listen to you."

Then Alice smiled again and turned around to go downstairs, Yutong Shiai shook her head, and just wanted to follow, suddenly seemed to sense the gaze of someone from outside the window. He turned his head and looked out through the glass.

In the deep darkness of the enchanted forest, the man in the blue dress could be seen standing in the cracks in the trunks of the trees. Because of the obscuration of the tree trunk, only the dark blue dress that was dull due to the poor lighting and the dim object that the man was holding in his hand could be seen. As for the man's appearance and color, it was obscured by the woods.

Yutong Shiai's heart seemed to leak a beat, and his breathing stagnated, and he just wanted to walk in to see it, when Alice's energetic voice came from the corridor.

"Come down! Ten loves! ”

Yutong Shiai turned her head to look at the corridor meaningfully because of the other party's call, and when she reacted and turned around, the person in that place was gone. The dark and lonely enchanted forest is like a bottomless abyss, cracking the mouth of sneer.

Yutong Shiai took a deep breath and turned to go downstairs.

That's definitely Alice the Curious. Yutong Shiai told himself so in his heart.

On the first floor, Yutong saw Alice placing a round cake on the table in the dining room. In the center of the cake was a sunflower.

Yutong Shiai saw the sunflower, and her brows furrowed imperceptibly. This option is truly haunting.

"Come on, come on, ten loves!"

The girl Alice waved her hand to signal Yutong Shiai to go over, Yutong Shiai looked at the excitement on each other's faces, and could only follow the other party to come to the other party's side, and then Alice grabbed Yutong Shiai's shoulders and pressed him on the chair.

"Listen up!"

Alice's voice was rarely raised, and it seemed that she was indeed in the mood.

"Ten Ai has never had a birthday, right, so I'll help Ten Ai once today!"

Birthday or something, Yutong Shiai really doesn't know what day the thunderstorm night he was born on. Yutong Shixin was silently guessing about everything around him, but at the same time, he also knew that what the young Alice was showing now was also Alice's true emotion.

Alice genuinely wants to celebrate his birthday.

Yutong Shiai smiled slightly.

"Thank you, Alice."

"Hey, hey."

Alice didn't hesitate to smile, and then she snorted a little unwillingly.

"I wanted to go out with my ten loves and come back in the evening, but it wouldn't be nice to light a candle before the sun went down."

Candle?

Yutong Shiai looked at the cake, the puppeteer Alice has perhaps the most dexterous hands in the whole of Gensokyo, and the cake she made is naturally as delicate as a work of art. And on top of this cake that people are almost willing to appreciate and not willing to start, it seems that there is only this sunflower that is suitable for the job of [Candle].

“…… Alice? ”

Yutong Shiai looked at Alice who naturally took out a match and polished a match. He wanted to say something, but he had a hard time saying it. The rationality of wanting to say something and not wanting to stop the desire to light a candle for his sake were in a stalemate, but Alice still hadn't decided after lighting the sunflower.

But the winner was clearly Alice.

Yutong Shiai sighed, looked at the sunflowers burning in the flames, watched the flower plate burn out little by little, listened to Alice's soft singing of happy birthday in her ears, and shifted her eyes to Alice who looked soft and happy in the firelight.

Perhaps this is also a necessary awareness?
