Looking at the information on the light board in front of me, every piece of data recorded on it, as well as those very similar appearances and initial points to myself, as well as those piles and trivialities of life......

"It's the opposite."

"But it's the same."

"The point of my disagreement with him was the same as that of the twelve-year-old...... When I was twelve, I got the plug-in code, and this 'Natsuki' was invested in a billion at the age of twelve. ”

"Before the age of twelve, our experience at the orphanage was exactly the same, exactly like coming out of a script...... Whether it is the character of the friends I have made, or the mental path after the incident, even the attitude of the old man towards him is exactly the same as mine......"

"It seems that the white code in my body was specially left for me by the night elder...... The original host of this white code is a character who has been specially trained to create the source code that best matches me and does not reveal the details. ”

"It's a pity ......"

"You would have had a happy life of your own, but because of my arrival, you were killed by Ye Lao, and then the tanuki changed the prince and turned me, the summer tree, into you......"

"So, that's why I never got back to changing the historical data?"

Natsuki stood in mid-air, thoughtful.

As early as the day the code was taken away, Natsuki found that no matter what he did, it didn't seem to constitute an energy backlash, but Biqing was still like that, being eaten back every day......

At that time, the two of them guessed that this was very likely to be related to the white code in Xia Shu's body.

It's just speculation, but there is no source of the white code in the body, and there is no way to start at all, so it has been delayed there without investigation.

Suddenly, the golden key fell into the upper right corner of the light board information screen, and turned into a golden arrow, as if the page was closed on a computer, and the light board screen was turned off by point X.

Click......

From top to bottom, the huge light panel screen gradually shatters into fluorescent light and dissipates into the world.

And the silk threads that originally extended from the sun also cracked in an instant.

The sun's gravitational pull disappears, and the code pull multiplies.

Natsuki's consciousness was instantly sucked into the white code.

inside the white code.

It's a boundless space.

The upper part of the head is a broken mirror.

On the soles of the feet are red numbers, blue letters, black symbols, and white bubbles.

He just lay on top of the colorful river, half of his body soaked in liquid, half naked and exposed to the air, watching as the debris above his head grew more and more, and the mirror surface became smaller and smaller.

And every mirror accurately reflects his facial features and body.

It was as if there were countless of them staring at him.

"It's ......"

Natsuki stretched out the palm of his right hand, and the consciousness that made up the palm of his hand extended infinitely and elongated, connecting and merging with one of the lenses, and the consciousness also submerged into it.

……

1997, orphanage.

The birds are singing and the sun is shining.

Natsuki held a math book for his first year of high school and lazily lay on the bench next to the track and field to preview his homework.

Knock knock!

A soccer ball flew in from a distance, and after a few bounces, rolled down to the bench.

"Brother Natsuki!"

The child who acted as the goalkeeper waved at Natsuki and shouted, "Please kick the ball over!" ”

"Catch it!"

Natsuki fastened the book to the chair, put his hands in his pockets, and got up and raised his feet.

Boom.

Kick the ball back.

"Thanks!"

After stabilizing the ball, the child shouted, "Brother Xia Shu, do you want to play together?" ”

"You guys play, I'll read the book again."

Natsuki shook his head, looked at them with a smile, and after a while, picked up his book again, and was about to continue previewing, but saw a little girl standing under the tree next to him.

The expression on her face Natsuki was very familiar, it was the kind of grievance, helplessness, and fear that blended together, and she looked like she was about to cry.

"Looking at Mian Sheng, is it the child who just entered the hospital today?"

Natsuki thought for a while, put the book in his backpack, and then walked to the little girl's side, and said softly, "Why are you here alone?" Don't you go and play games with them? ”

The little girl glanced up at Natsuki, her eyes suddenly brightened, but she quickly lowered her head.

With his hands behind his back, he twisted and said, "...... I think...... But, but I'm afraid. ”

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid...... They don't want to play with me, I ...... I ......"

As she spoke, a mist rose in the girl's eyes, and she felt like she was about to cry in the next second.

"No, it won't."

Natsuki smiled and stretched out his hand, pressed it on the little girl's head, gently tapped it twice, and said, "The children here love to make friends, and they will definitely be willing to play games with you." ”

The little girl hesitated, "Really? ”

"Of course it's true."

Natsuki bent down and asked again, "Do you want ice cream?" It's so hot today, it's the best time to eat ice cream. ”

"Is that okay?"

"Okay, let's go, my brother will take you to buy ice cream to eat."

"Hmm...... Thank you big brother, I ...... My name is Xiaoyu, Ning Xiaoyu! ”

"Nice name."

Xia Shu pinched Xiaoyu's face, and the soft little face suddenly turned red and hot, "Are you feeling unwell?" Why does it feel so hot on your face? ”

"No, I ...... I just ......"

"It's fine, if you're not feeling well, I can take you to the infirmary......"

Xia Shu smiled and said: "By the way, my name is Xia Shu, I am the big brother in this courtyard, if someone bullies you in the future, you will report my name, and it will be fine." ”

Under the blue sky and white clouds.

The bright sun fell on Natsuki's body.

At this time, the sun is as warm as the sun.

Xiaoyu looked up at Natsuki, and her heart, which was originally frozen by being abandoned, also began to melt because of this warmth.

……

Click-

The mirror shatters and disappears.

Natsuki's consciousness was connected to the adjacent mirror, and the two were connected and merged again.

……

1998, orphanage.

Weekend.

Natsuki returned to the orphanage from school with his schoolbag on his back and bought two roasted sweet potatoes on the way back.

Originally, he was going to give Xiaoyu one, but he came back and looked for him for a long time, but he didn't find him.

But soon, he heard the news of Xiaoyu's adoption.

"Really? That's pretty good......"

Natsuki sat weakly in the chair of the old night's office, his eyes fell on the roasted sweet potato, and fell silent.

Night Old sighed softly, "Because of you, that kid hasn't wanted to leave here, but you should understand that the orphanage is not a good place...... And you were about to take the exam at the time, so I didn't tell you about it, for fear of delaying your studies. ”

"I can understand that."

Natsuki took a deep breath and asked, "Where does she live now?" I want to see her. ”

Night Old: "City A." ”

“…… Is it that far? ”

Natsuki's fists clenched.

If you are doing a green train, it will take at least one day and one night to travel from H City to A City.

Ye Lao sighed: "Originally, that family also lived in City H, but because of the job transfer, they moved to City A two days ago. ”

"Okay......"

Natsuki nodded, looked up and asked, "Grandpa Dean, I want to apply for my part of the bonus." ”

"You're going to see her? City A is too far away, you are not yet an adult, I am not at ease. ”

"It's okay, I've always been lucky...... However, I want to fly there this time, as fast as possible, so that I don't have to delay school. ”

"Okay, I'll let Mr. Zhang go with you, so it's safer."

"Hmm...... Then I'll go back and pack my things first. ”

Natsuki had just stood up when the door behind him suddenly rang.

Knock knock!

Night Old: "Please come in." ”

It was a policeman who came in, and the old man got up in surprise, and just as he was about to ask what was going on, a petite figure rushed out from behind the policeman and quickly pounced on Natsuki.

"Xiaoyu!"

Looking at the young figure in his arms, Natsuki said in surprise, "Haven't you been adopted?" How...... How did it come out here. ”

"My brother is a big liar!"

Xiaoyu buried her head in Xia Shu's arms and choked up: "My brother obviously said that he would protect me for the rest of my life...... ...... that I promised like this"

"It's my brother's fault, and my brother promises that nothing like this will happen again."

Xia Shu looked at Xiaoyu with a complicated expression, reached out and rubbed her head and said, "I bought you baked sweet potatoes, do you want to eat them?" ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Yu looked up, and the tears on her face had soaked Natsuki's clothes.

Ye Lao asked Xiaoyu, "What's going on?" How did you get back with the police? ”

The policeman said on the side: "This child ran to the police station in City A, said that she was abducted and trafficked there by traffickers, and then said that her home was in City H, and asked her which orphanage she belonged to, and she said that she couldn't remember, and asked her phone number, and she didn't know ......."

"So we sent someone to send her from City A, planning to find her from house to house."

In 98, the network was not so developed, and the information was not so circulating, so if you really want to find a place, you can only use this stupid method.

"You, it's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, what if you are really abducted and run away!"

Xia Shu stretched out his hand and nodded Xiaoyu's forehead, but Xiaoyu stuck out his tongue and said with a grimace: "No, my brother is so lucky, as your sister, I will definitely be fine." ”
