Chapter 15: The Castle of Her Royal Highness
Infinity Tower, sixth floor.
It was raining again in Tokyo, and the breeze was slanting the rain and falling on the ruins left of the demonic rebellion, looking extremely desolate.
As the Gu God disappeared, the purple flames that burned all over Tokyo were also extinguished. The frightened people came out of the room, not knowing what the Tokyo government was going to do about the aftermath.
However, all this has nothing to do with this black cat with golden eyes. It skillfully jumped from the main road to the eaves, to the power lines, and finally to the door of an apartment in Chiyoda Ward.
As if pinching, the door to the apartment opened, and a chestnut-haired girl, dressed in a gray-black robe, stepped out of the room. She picked up the black cat at the door and walked into the house.
"Well done black charcoal, I'll give you dried fish to eat later."
The girl gently stroked the hair of the black cat named Black Charcoal, and the black cat closed its eyes comfortably and meowed softly. It wagged its tail and spat out the green glow that had been in its mouth.
"Did you already know in advance that Akutagawa guy was going to betray us? [Priest]. β
In the shadow of the room, a middle-aged man walked out. He was dressed in the same gray-black robe as the chestnut-haired girl, and the thumb of his right hand was missing, and the remaining bit was tightly connected to his index finger through the tendon.
"No, I'm just going to do an extra layer of insurance in advance."
The girl was still stroking the black cat's hair, her tone was flat, and she couldn't hear any emotion.
"After all, a pawn who tries to get out of the chessboard can only become an outcast. This has been the case since ancient times. β
"A pawn that tries to get out of the chessboard can only become an outcast...... Is it? β
The middle-aged man kept chanting this sentence and exclaimed, "That is, [the priest] can say such things, and it was really the right choice to choose you to be the [priest] in the first place." Like this time, the Knights' Twin Heroes, the explorers sent by the base, have all been played around by you. That's the miracle that you, Izumi Hayakawa, can do. β
"Don't praise me, [Chief], no, the sixth apostle [of the Piercing Shrike]."
Izumi Hayakawa smiled lightly and said, "The leader of the Gu God Sect has been lurking for ten years, and he has spread such a big net. It's not easy! β
The two exchanged a wave of business and began to talk about business: "Now that the [True God] has been recovered, and the Explorer and the Knights have left, we can carry out the true Gu God Awakening Project." β
"Yes, the real Gu God Awakening Project." Izumi Hayakawa blinked, "Let's turn [the sixth layer] upside down!" β
[Commander-in-chief] nodded and stretched out his hand: "For the Gu God Sect, there is no regret in nine deaths." β
"For the Gu God Sect, there is no regret in nine deaths." Izumi Hayakawa also stretched out his hand, but there was something else in his smile.
ββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββββββββββ
The real world.
Wu Hao locked the bicycle into the corridor while humming a small song. He was in a good mood. I can't remember what happened in the Tower of Infinity, but it's always a good thing that the pay is in hand.
"The world laughs at me for being crazy, I laugh at others who can't see through it, only Wu Hao from heaven to earth, hahahahahahaha!"
While singing, the window on the second floor of the compound was suddenly opened, and Aunt Wang's spindle-like face poked out of the window: "Xiao Wu, what crazy are you crazy in the middle of the night!" Do you know if it's so noisy that others are sleeping? β
Wu Hao didn't care, he still smiled and continued to sing: "The world laughs at me for stealing men, and I laugh at the world for ......"
Aunt Wang's face turned red all of a sudden, she stared at Wu Hao angrily, she didn't know what to scold, and slammed the window shut.
Wu Hao laughed, and his heart was even happier. He carried the contents of the bicycle basket into his arms, ran up to the fourth floor in three steps and two steps to open the door with the key, and shouted: "Sister, sister, I brought you your favorite small steamed buns!" β
There was a dead silence in the room, and there was no sound.
Wu Hao pushed the door open, and it was dark, and the lights were not turned on. He turned on the light, and the ground was full of medicine bottles: amitriptyline, cinnabar tranquilizer pills, and Tianwang heart tonifying pills...... There are about five or six kinds, some are empty, some are left.
On one side of the bottle was the instruction manual, and he picked it up and looked at it carefully.
"It is used for the treatment of various types of depression or depressive states, and has a good effect on intrinsic depression, and is also effective for reactive depression and neurosis of depressive states."
"Common adverse reactions, such as dry mouth and blurred vision. Palpitation. Vertigo, dyskinesia, liver damage, and tardive dyskinesia are common. β
Obviously it was just an explanatory text, but Wu Hao's heart was like a knife. He tossed the manual aside and leaned against the wall for a big breath. It was not easy to calm my mood. He prepared the food and tiptoed into his sister's room.
Like the living room, there were no lights on in the room. A girl sits in the corner. Wearing a white dress with a double ponytail. His eyes were blank and he was clutching his knees.
"My dear sister, Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Majesty the Queen. Your favorite little steamed bun is here~ and dipped in your favorite condensed milk~"
Wu Hao flattered the plate in front of the girl, the small steamed buns inside were still hot, and the white condensed milk was smeared with a smile on it.
"Don't!"
A cold voice spat out of the girl's mouth, she slapped Wu Hao's hand open, and the plate fell to the ground and fell to pieces with a clatter.
"I ......"
As if realizing that she had done something wrong again, a panicked look appeared on the girl's face, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"I love it!"
Wu Hao grabbed the girl's hand and squeezed her eyes.
"Her Royal Highness thinks I've been with you for many years, and I don't know your personality - you are reluctant to eat these little steamed buns, and you want to reward them, and you are embarrassed to say, right?"
The girl nodded.
Wu Hao picked up the fragments of the plate and threw them into the trash, while throwing the small steamed buns that fell on the ground into his mouth, looking at the girl with provocative eyes.
"Sister...... You...... It's ...... at all I don't know...... ...... with condensed milk Small steamed buns...... How delicious is it, don't eat it...... You're sorry, ah!! β
He screamed, frightening the girl.
"Choke...... Choked ......"
The girl giggled at him and hurriedly poured him a glass of boiling water.
Wu Hao drank all the boiling water, he licked his lips, and saw his sister looking at him with expectant star eyes.
"What do you want to see?" Wu Hao asked.
"I want to see it...... Want to see ......"
"See what?"
"Look at Madoka ......"
"Nope! I want to see the headless princess! β
Wu Hao smiled and pressed the remote control, the TV embedded in the wall glowed, and the icons of the network APP were displayed on it, and there were countless of them. He didn't care about anything else, and went straight to "Rabbit Tooth Live." β
Wu Hao's rabbit tooth user only followed one anchor, he clicked on the anchor's avatar, and a girl jumped out of the screen. She wears white gloves and a lace-trimmed pink dress. Her fair skin, beautiful collarbones, and breasts are all a sign that this girl is very cute.
But. She has no head. Or maybe the anchor was clever enough to let the camera only shoot the part below her head.
Madoka is her, but the headless princess is also her.
The anchor's studio has a pink tone, and the bed is stacked with large and small dolls, which is very girly. A black pillar standing upright next to the table was the microphone. The girl sings to it.
"The call from the brave is the rhythm of the heart. Sunlight pours from the sky and passes through the layers of continents......"
The female anchor's voice is crisp and bright, like a canary. Wu Hao's sister in front of the screen was stupid and hummed along quietly.
Looking at the girl's demeanor, Wu Hao's mood was a little gloomy. He secretly thought that it would be nice if his sister had a state like watching Madoka sing every day!
After the song was finished, the anchor room was swiped at once. are all brushing gifts, and there is no shortage of confessions. My sister wanted to send a plane, and Wu Hao agreed.
"Do you think this song is good, this is the theme song of the Infinity Tower movie version that will be released in five days~ Of course, the lead singer is not me~ But but, I'm very happy to be able to sing this song in front of everyone~"
"Also, the VR game of the Infinity Tower will also be open beta in 10 days~ That's the world's first online VR game~ Madoka I watched the promotional video, it's super fun~ Madoka I've already bought the spirit submersible device, and I'm looking forward to meeting you in the game~"
Of course, these Wu Hao knew that as early as a few hours ago, Wu Hao had already passed the only and only closed test of the Infinity Tower. He turned his head slightly, and his sister listened attentively to the female anchor's chatter, unable to take her eyes off it.
Do you want my sister to play Infinity Tower? This is a question that Wu Hao has been struggling with. The Infinity Tower is free, open and fun. But he doesn't have confidence that his sister, who is immersed in pain, and who lives in his own world, can regain happiness through this game?
