The world at this moment is like a calm sea under the dark night for Xiao Qing.

Pitch black, cold, lonely, dead and lifeless, and even an indescribable sense of nothingness brought about by the emptiness and desert.

The night sky is like ink, the sea is like ink, there is no difference between the sky and the sea in the distance, everything is pitch black, the light is gone, and the world has come to an end.

In this world of boundless darkness, only the eyes that gaze into the darkness are not dark, because the light in these clear eyes does not come from the outside world, but from the heart. Miss Lili was right, she hadn't given up yet.

"It seems that I was careless," Miss Lili said lightly, "and there are more than three arguments to support you. That's right, more than just those three. This is the reason why the light in Xiao Qing's eyes was not swallowed by the darkness, and she still held her hole cards.

"But I don't want to look for it." Miss Lili shook the wine in her glass and said, "I'll let you have a showdown." ”

Miss Lili stood up from the dragon chair, stared at Xiao Qing and said slowly, "Your Royal Highness Princess, you'd better be mentally prepared, because the next step is a little cruel." ”

A magnificent grand piano appeared in the hall out of thin air, Miss Lili walked to the piano with red wine in hand, she first took a sip of red wine elegantly, then put the wine glass aside, and slowly sat down.

"The game continues." Miss Lili brushed the long hair that had fallen to her ears and whispered.

Slender jade fingers climbed the keys, and soon a beautiful music appeared in the main hall. The melody is so beautiful that it looks like a stream flowing in the moonlight.

"This is the first piece of music," said Miss Lili, as she played, "and the night returns." ”

Everyone was listening quietly. Among these earthly elites are music connoisseurs, and there are even artists like Keiko Sato, who are themselves engaged in music, but they have never heard such music. This touching melody does not seem to enter the heart from the ear, but directly resounds in the soul. Everyone's soul resonated with this song called "Returning to the Night".

At this moment, there was no hologram in the hall, but everyone still saw the same picture through this melody: the night was cold, and a crescent moon silently sowed a bright light. This flowing light is reflected in a small alley, and the path is reflected like a dancing river. Immediately afterwards, a beautiful girl appeared, and she walked briskly towards the depths of the alley by stepping on this small river paved with moonlight.

The beautiful melody continues to flow, like a galaxy floating in the universe and slowly spinning, everything is so beautiful and peaceful. Everyone present was immersed in the inner peace brought by this beautiful melody, but Xiao Qing panicked, because she suddenly had a very bad premonition!

Everything in the picture is so familiar, the girl who walks home by the moonlight in the picture is herself, but she doesn't dare to listen to it anymore!

Along with the melody of flowing water, the picture is also changing. The beautiful girl had come to the end of the alley, and now she was standing in front of the door of a small house, and the moonlight was impartially hitting her perfect side face, through which she could see that she was laughing.

At that moment, Miss Lili struck the keys a little faster.

Ten fingers fly, and the picture suddenly changes!

The girl in the moonlight was still smiling, but the smile was slowly distorted like a melody.

Is that...... Sneer!

The melody continued to pick up speed, and Miss Lili's long hair flew up and down as she played the piano. The creek in the moonlight evolves into a big rushing river!

The girl sneered as she slowly pushed the door open.

"No!" Xiao Qing tries to stop the girl in the picture from pushing open the door, but to no avail.

The melody continues to pick up speed, like a storm descending.

In the sound of this torrential rain, everything in the hut was vividly displayed in front of everyone: the moonlight poured in through the open door, caressing the cold floor of the hut, and also caressing the two stiff corpses on the floor!

It was then that the piece entered its final brilliance.

Every note jumped out sonorously and forcefully under the soothing of Miss Lili's slender jade fingers, and together they formed the final storm! 
The crescent moon turned into a full moon at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the moonlight was a miserable white, and everywhere it was illuminated by the moonlight, there was a sense of desolation. The people on the ground would never be able to stand up again, but the girl who looked at them still sneered.

"Enough!" Xiao Qing could barely bear it.

It was in this infinitely bleak atmosphere that the curtain came down on the first piece.

"Your Royal Highness," Miss Lili's slender hand re-raised her glass, and she asked softly as she shook the red wine in her hand slightly, "how is this night's return?" "Just now, just ......"

"That's not an illusion." Miss Lili stared at Xiao Qing's eyes and said slowly, "When that door is pushed open, all that is presented in front of you is the truth. "You, you killed them? "Yes. Miss Lili was still staring at Xiao Qing's eyes.

"Why?" Xiao Qing almost crumbled, "Why do you want to do this?" "Maybe they don't deserve to raise a princess. Miss Lili said lightly, as if she had made an excuse casually.

"For such reasons?" Xiao Qing obviously couldn't accept it. 
"No," Miss Lili smiled slightly, "there is no need for a reason. I'm just pouring out your eyes with pain. ”

"What?" Xiao Qing was stunned.

"Those eyes," Miss Lili said, pointing to Xiao Qing's, "are disgusting." Even though you hide it well, the light under your eyes has never been extinguished for a moment, and I have to see how much pain is injected to erase this obtrusive light completely! ”

“…… Do you have to do it? Xiao Qing closed her eyes in pain.

She understands that the fairy tale is over, but the bloody storm has just begun.

"Not necessarily." Miss Lili said loftily, "I can give you a chance. ”

"How do I do it?" 
"Showdown with me. ”

"Showdown?" 
"That's right! Miss Lili snapped, "I want to know what is supporting the light in your eyes and showing your hole cards!" Xiao Qing slowly opened her eyes, and two lines of tears slipped down.

"Sister Li," Xiao Qing said softly, "You read it wrong, I, where do I have any hole cards?" "Hmph. Miss Lili sneered and said, "Your Royal Highness, you are really stubborn. ”

After finishing speaking, Miss Lili put her ten slender jade fingers back on the keys, "You know what? I've got three pieces of music for you. ”

As the first note gushes out, the second piece is played, and it is another piece of music with a beautiful beginning.

The cold night disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by the green spring mountains. Everyone seemed to be standing on a sunny hillside, surrounded by life and a gentle breeze.

But Xiao Qing didn't dare to slack off, she knew the horror of this "game". Gentle knife, knife deadly. Danger is everywhere, and you may suddenly burst out of the lush greenery! 
"The second piece," Miss Lili whispered, "Haruno recalled. The notes flowed slowly, and everything was so beautiful and harmonious. Everyone listened silently, and at this moment it was as if the world was left with only this music. But what doesn't match this beautiful melody is Xiao Qing's state. She froze in place, her eyes glazed over.

It's strange, it seems that something is gradually being lost? But I can't tell what it is.

The melody gradually picks up, as if the sun is rising, and the hillsides are warmer and greener.

Xiao Qing looked around, and the imaginary danger didn't seem to appear? But she understands that Sister Li will never let her go so easily.

At this moment, Xiao Qing saw Meiguo.

This is......

Xiao Qing was stunned.

Sister Qing'er! When she saw Xiao Qing looking at her, Meiguo wanted to scream, but she couldn't.

Sister Qing'er, you, what's wrong with you? Meiguo was conveying such a message with her eyes, because she found that Xiao Qing's eyes were very wrong, and she looked at herself like she was looking at a stranger.

This is...... Who?

Xiao Qing painfully found that she couldn't remember who the little girl behind her was. But the subconscious tells her that this little girl is important to herself!

Soon, she thought of something terrible.

"You, what did you do?" Xiao Qing couldn't help but ask.

But Miss Lili did not respond to her, but gradually increased the rhythm of playing the piano.

It's strange, as if something has disappeared from the body? Although it is not painful.

This is a long and soothing song, as if a person standing in the green spring mountains and fields silently looking back on his life. When the curtain comes down on the last note, the music is over and life is about to end.

"How?" Miss Lili moved her fingers slightly.

“…… It's wonderful. ”

"Huh." Miss Lili smiled slightly.

"What did you do?" Xiao Qing asked. 
"What do you think? Miss Lili forced Xiao Qing's eyes.

In an instant, Xiao Qing understood everything.

"You, you took away my memories?" 
"Not all. Miss Lili said, "I just took away the best part of your memories. Because of this, you can have enough mind and reason to talk to me. ”

"You can remember where this is, who you are, and who I am." Miss Lili said slowly, "You also understand what I'm doing this for. "Why is this happening? Xiao Qing just kept repeating similar words, "Why do you want to do this?" ”

"There's one last piece of music, my dear." Miss Lili whispered, "Dance to death." "Huh? Xiao Qing's eyes widened.

"Huh." Miss Lili smiled, "It seems that Her Royal Highness the princess is also aware of the seriousness of the problem. ”

"Then I'll ask you one last time," Miss Lili said word by word as she stared at Xiao Qing's eyes, "Are you willing to have a showdown with me?" ”
