Chapter 5: The Red Queen

"Do you remember this?" Following all the way, all the way up, Zhao Bai'an followed the Red Queen to the highest point of the castle, which should be an observatory. Here, she could see the whole playground, maybe not just the playground, but the whole plate.

In the left front of the castle is the entire playground, which is roughly a triangle in shape, not very large, but contains a lot of small items. The parallel left side of the castle, the upper right part that Zhao Bai'an did not explore after entering the playground, is a forest, not dense, and it can be clearly seen that there is a lovely wooden house sitting there.

Overall, this is a heart-shaped area, with the gate of the playground being the sharp corner of the heart, and the castle and cottage on either side of the top of the heart.

Here it is again, this inexplicably familiar feeling.

It seems to be able to help Zhao Bai'an dispel her confusion, but it actually increases her confusion.

"Do you think of anything?"

"Well, it feels familiar, like I've been here before." But it was just a feeling, and Zhao Baian could only answer ambiguously.

"Nonsense! Of course you've been here! What is a little familiar!! It should be very familiar and familiar! A sucker! The Red Queen changed again into the same way she was when she first met, and after hearing her answer, Zhao Baian even felt that her beautiful red hair was about to stand on end, although she didn't.

"Stupid! Big Fool!! The Red Queen stomped her foot, and her speech quickened because she was angry, and she pointed to the hut in the forest in the distance, "What about over there!" Look over there, Bunny's house! It's your home too! The place you've carefully built, the place you've spent the longest time before! You don't even remember? ”

Poof.

It seems that something hit Zhao Bai'an's heart.

"Indifferent big idiot! I don't remember anything, so I might as well not come back! I built you this amusement park thanks to my great construction! ”

"Huh? Made for me? Poof, another heavy heartbeat.

The atmosphere froze for two or three seconds.

"I'm sorry, I was angry just now." Without warning, the Red Queen turned into cold mode again.

"How do you ...... Didn't you just die of anger? ”

"I'm angry now."

This anger is inexplicable, and the degassing is also fast. It seems that the Red Queen does have the demeanor of a queen when she is in a calm mood.

"Is this the legendary dual personality?"

"No, it's all me." A cold, calm voice came.

"Otherwise, it's a double personality."

"Don't get off topic." The Red Queen ignored Zhao Bai'an, "It was angry just now. Me, or all of us here. Not all living beings and objects are looking forward to your return. I'm so glad you're back here. ”

The Red Queen smiled at her: "At the same time, there is one more point I want to correct, the wooden house over there is indeed your home, but this is also your home, and any place in this land of love is your home." ”

"I think your lack of memory may not be accidental. As for why you haven't been here for so long, I don't know, but maybe there's your own reason. The Red Queen walked closer to Zhao Bai'an, "There's no need to think about it all, maybe it's not bad as a new starting point." ”

The Red Queen stretched out her hand: "Reacquaint yourself, I'm Huo Miki." ”

"Poof......" is deceptive, this name is too dramatic.

Zhao Bai'an shook the hand of the Red Queen and said what he thought in his heart: "The fire is very suitable for you, but Miki feels that it is too incompatible with here!" And it's not like the queen at all. Instead, it's like the name of an outsider like me, Zhao Bai'an. ”

"Alas, I have emphasized it many times, this is your home, your home, and there is no outsider at all." She paused, "Besides, I'm not the Red Queen." ”

"Huh?"

Am I a fixed mindset? Impossible, isn't this who the Red Queen is? is so red, so queenly (except for emotional moments, of course), she is a red queen. Zhao Baian felt that there was no problem with this.

"Or rather, I'm not all the Red Queen. By analogy, you have always been Zhao Bai'an, but you are still Ai Li here, and you may have other titles at other times, but you are always Zhao Bai'an, which is not wrong; In the same way, I am Huo Miki, and if you ask anyone who the Red Queen is, it must be me who she is. But if you ask me who I am, my answer must be that I'm Miki, whether it's here or somewhere else, I'm Miki. She paused, and smiled at Zhao Bai'an as if she knew she hadn't fully explained clearly, "Got it?" ”

"Em, I feel understood! You're Miki. She raised her eyebrows, as if she was glad that Zhao Bai'an could call her that.

"Still, it's a little bit like a boy's name, or it doesn't feel like a girl's name at all." Zhao Baian muttered softly.

"Oh, hehehe." Miki shook his shoulders, as if he had heard something funny, "I didn't say I was a girl." ”

"Wow! But you, you, you, you're like a girl! Such a posture, such a voice, and wearing a skirt! Huo Miki's words startled Zhao Bai'an.

"No one has dictated that skirts are a girl's prerogative." Miki smiled slyly, "And, ah, I'm like this because you want me to be like this." ”

"What? Am I a big pervert who likes to make other people's women's clothes! Zhao Bai'an exclaimed in some surprise, something in his heart gradually collapsed.

"Poofhahahaha, no, no, you misunderstood." Hi Miki clutched his stomach and laughed without an image.

"Huh?" Zhao Bai'an's mind was a little dazed.

"First of all, it is important to say that what kind of clothes to wear has nothing to do with gender, boys can also like to wear skirts, and girls can naturally wear undershirts or tank tops. Besides..."Hizogi paused, "I'm not a girl, yes, but I'm not a boy either, I'm genderless." ”

"Huh?!" Because the answer was too unexpected, Zhao Baian gasped.

And when I say "you hope," I don't mean what you understand. Miki continued to explain. It's your innermost thoughts or wishes. I don't think it's very clear. ”

Huo Miki tapped his head with his right index finger: "How can I say it, it's not just me, this Red Heart Island, it's all because of your preferences and your wishes that it became like this." For example, this is a situation that resembles Alice, what is sold in the store, and so on. ”

Hearts Island ...... It turns out that this is an island, and it is really an island as its name suggests.

"Em...... I feel as if I understand something, but how is this possible? There's no logic at all. ”

"yes, I don't think it's you who makes no sense." Miki looked at me with suspicion, who had lost his memory, didn't know the state of affairs, and could only ask questions. "But there are some things I don't fully understand why, it's just that it's been like this since I can remember, maybe it's some rules of this world."

"Okay." Zhao Bai'an decided not to continue to investigate, "Then what about the 'other places' you just said?" ”

"Oh, it looks like you're listening to me very carefully."

Of course, Zhao Bai'an is still quite sensitive to the information hidden in her words, not to mention that she is still in a state where she is not very clear about anything, even if some of them are not very clear, she can hear every word very clearly.

"I think it won't be long before you figure it out. Rather than let me bother with you here, you should understand it yourself when the time comes. ”

Hey, hey, you're a lazy interpreter!
