"The antlers are unraveled, and the cicadas begin to sing. Banxia Sheng, Mu Jin Rong. It is the moon, there is no need to use the fire in the south, you can be smart, you can look from afar, you can ascend to the mountain mausoleum, you can be in the pavilion. ”

However, the teenage girl closed the book in her hand with a slight tremble, her slender fingers left clear fingerprints on the thin pages, and her dark and deep eyes gazed calmly as the sun gradually faded, and the light and heat slowly slid into the vast forest made of steel bars.

The summer solstice of the 24 solar terms, the longest day of the year.

It was the day she was discharged from the hospital, assassinated, and left in a vegetative state.

The translucent glass window does not reflect the girl's image clearly, just like the slender figure of a **-year-old child is covered with a set of blue and white striped patient gowns, and the long soft waist-length black hair is properly scattered on the straight back, which makes the already fair skin even paler. The jet-black pupils full of heavy ink are like a black hole that swallows all things, but they are transparent and dazzling.

The corners of her mouth curled expressionlessly, and the activity of her facial muscles pulled the tails of her eyes up slightly, revealing the sweetness and delicateness unique to girls, and weakening a bit of indifference from the bone marrow penetrating the soul.

At the same time, it is also the first holographic online game "Apocalypse" for the summer kingdom to be tested without deletion.

…… Apocalypse

The heart contracted slightly, the girl's dark eyes flashed, she tore off the drip on her wrist casually, and stumbled barefoot towards the outside of the ward.

It's still too late.

"Ciri." The boy's voice came from the end of the hallway, a little hoarse due to the voice change period, but it was not unpleasant.

“…… Pander to... Marsh. The girl looked up and muttered, her voice hoarse, obscure from having spoken to anyone for so long.

She hadn't experienced those dark hesitations yet, and her inability to speak was just a psychological barrier, although it was difficult to eliminate in a short period of time.

But just like she came back into the world and stood in the sun again, it would always be fine.

She was convinced.

The young man is only fourteen or fifteen years old, with short black hair standing on his head like a little hedgehog, delicate eyebrows and eyes like the most dazzling stars in the night sky, absolute modesty and elegance in his gestures, and a hidden edge under his calm expression.

The young man's slightly immature appearance and the heroic and fearless appearance ten years later gradually coincided, Xi Rui stood in place and stared at the young man walking slowly not far away for a moment, his stiff facial expression was still difficult to accurately express joy, but his nose was sore.

The overwhelming grievances instantly surrounded her, and her dark eyes were unconsciously filled with tears, but they did not fall in the end.

She was under 12 years old at the time of the accident, and someone fished in troubled waters in the chaos and injected her with X-T2.

X-T2 is a banned drug that specializes in destroying nerve centers. Because of the drug, she became a vegetative state, did not die, but could not wake up, and became a geismus.

No, she's not dead, she can't be considered a geist, but she seems to have gotten the ability to go out of her body.

To be precise, soon after she became a vegetative person, Aze spent a lot of money to build a game pod specifically for her, but unfortunately, she did not become a player to meet Aze according to Aze's wishes, but inexplicably became a ghost outside the rules of the game.

Then there's a decade-long wandering career in the game world.

No one could see her, and no one could talk to her. She had faced the greatest calamity at her best years, and for the next ten years she had embraced a solitude that would crush anyone, and there was no escape from it.

From young curiosity, to a gradual silence in a long period of solitude.

Her only pleasure is to silently accompany Aze, observing the various people in this game with a critical eye.

Why Rebirth?

Ciri's long, pale and slightly transparent fingers pressed hard against her frantic temples, missing the memory of her rebirth.

Maybe it's important?

It must be important.

There are too many people who don't want her to live, what about those who want her to live?

She didn't know.

Aze bent down slightly to pick up Ciri, because of the growth retardation caused by congenital insufficiency, Ciri is at least a head shorter than children of the same age, compared to Aze's height of nearly one meter eight, Ciri only reached Aze's waist.

Aze rubbed her forehead, and her voice was originally very gentle, but it looked a little funny because of the voice change period that had not yet completely ended: "Why did you run out without shoes?" I've already done the discharge procedures for you, are you hungry? I'll take you to eat. ”

Ciri shook his head and whispered to Aze's ear, his voice faint, "There's... Dark...... Kill..."

The word "I" swirled around the pale, bloodless lips and was swallowed again.

It's not selfishness, but with Aze's character, he will probably put all the protective power on her and ignore herself, which is not what she wants.

It's a pity that her strength is weak now, and she can't even protect herself, and she can't even dodge, how can she protect? You can only rely on Aze.

The look in Aze's eyes froze slightly, and he smiled lightly and kissed Xirui's cheek, "Don't worry, let's go eat first." ”

If it weren't for the parents' order to ...... When he went abroad, the company had some temporary things, and he would not delay until now to pick up Xirui from the hospital.

Xi Rui's pupils dilated, his fingers tugged at the hem of Aze's clothes, and his tone was indescribably firm: "Go back, home!" ”

"What's wrong?" Aze tilted his head and stared at Ciri in confusion, his eyes gentle and doting.

"Apocalypse... Closed beta..."Ciri was sweating profusely, "Eight o'clock." ”

Aze looked at her seriously, then looked down at the time, nineteen o'clock. This private hospital is only about ten minutes away from home, and it is still too late to rush back.

Aze backed down in her eager eyes: "Okay, but you still have to eat first when you go back." ”

Uncle Gu Hexuan and Xi Rui's parents are the core researchers of "Apocalypse", and the Gu family received internal information about "Apocalypse" before Gu Hexuan's disappearance, although it is only partial, and there is not much substantive content, but then he received first-hand information from various places, he knows very well that the game "Apocalypse" will inevitably have a place in the future world, and it is a pivotal place.

But games are always games, not as important as relatives, and Ciri is his family.

The problem is that Ciri didn't know anything about this before. Now that she suddenly mentioned this game, and was so desperately urging him to log in to the game, what did she know?

Whatever it is, it's not a good thing.

And assassinations......

It's not that he doubts Ciri's words, but the other party actually attacked a child?

Ciri may or may not really know anything about it. For a moment, he wasn't sure that Ciri's parents might have left anything behind before the accident.

But reason tells him that it is impossible, and Ciri's parents love Ciri very much, so how can they bear to let Ciri get involved?

Aze's moyao-like eyes flashed, no matter what, he had to protect her, it was his responsibility.

Aze sat in the garden downstairs of the hospital with Xirui in his arms and dialed the phone, "Ah Jue, come to the hospital to pick us up." ”

"Ten minutes!" A clear and flying voice came from the other end of the phone, Xi Rui's eyes widened slightly, still expressionless, and his tone was a little curious: "Ah Jue? ”

"Well, Ah Jue just came back." Aze smiled slightly, "Ciri doesn't have to worry. ”

Xi Rui nodded, Ah Jue is a martial arts genius, and there is a powerful master behind him, those people dare to touch her, but they definitely don't dare to fight Ah Jue's idea.

However, Aze is also very powerful, he and Ah Jue are twins, one writer and one martial arts, and no one can beat them together.

Almost greedily hugged Aze's neck, his black hole-like eyes looked around seriously with a small ghostly light, and every place he could see seemed to be swallowed up. After being a wandering spirit for ten years, it was strange to suddenly have a physical feeling, but she was very happy.

She didn't want to be a ghost again.

Even if she is outside the rules and can go anywhere with impunity, even if she knows everything. But the loneliness of being adrift for ten years without being able to get in touch with the world, as a twelve-year-old child who has just lost his parents, never wants to experience it a second time.

In later generations, "Apocalypse" was called the second world.

Because of the strong support of the state, the currency in the game is interconnected with reality, and a large number of consortia and hidden families have settled in the apocalypse. Coupled with the two completely different time and space of day and night, Apocalypse has also become a well-deserved second world.

When there was a car accident in her previous life, Aze was also seriously injured when she protected her, and Aze had been taking care of them because of the guilt of not being able to arrive in time to protect Ciri, so neither of them could make it to the closed beta of "Apocalypse".

Thinking of the high-spirited Ah Jue because she became depressed, she suddenly felt a little guilty.

Because he couldn't enter the game for the first time, it was three months after Aze recovered from his injury, and at that time, "Apocalypse" was open to the world for public testing, and various forces entered the game chaotically, and they fell into a disadvantage when they entered the game, and the development of the family was also subject to many restrictions.

Even with the abilities of Aze and Aju, they have a place in the game in the later stages, but only Ciri, who has witnessed all the processes, knows how much they have paid for it.

Thankfully, the target of those people was her, so she was the only one who was injected with banned drugs after the car accident, and after it was determined that she could not wake up, those people shifted their target.

The Gu brothers never gave up the investigation, but until she returned to her teenage years, they failed to find the real culprit.

As for her? Maybe you have some minutiae, but because you can't talk to anyone for evidence, those minutiae are even more useless than chicken ribs.
