Chapter 40: The Necklace

If all the clues revolve around me, what Oude is planning is likely to be related to the truth of this world, could it be the incandescent flame?

"Could it be that he and Crewe are trying to make something? This thing ......" Before I could finish speaking, the old man raised his hand and interrupted me, "Is there anything strange about his sister Ouya, think about it." ”

Ouya? In my impression, Ouya has always given people a well-behaved, cute and naughty feeling, except for a small face that is beautiful, there is nothing special about it.

"Except for his sweet appearance, there doesn't seem to be anything special about it."

"If you think about it, don't you realize that the person closest to you is actually not the one who made your body?"

Well? I was slightly stunned when I heard the old man's words, no matter how I look at it, Oude is closer to me, this body is made by him, and he has to find him every time he changes the battery, and the itinerary is also carried out by Oude, plus the secret he deliberately hidden...... Ouya is just his sister, although she is very kind, even with robots......

I seemed to understand something, and my eyes widened a little. Wait, after all, why did Oude make me, I remember he seemed to mention it once, it was for Ouya, in order to protect Ouya's safety, he created a robot like J7, and it was also for this reason that my battery was modified, just to better protect Ouya at a critical moment. I was created to protect Ouya, and Ou De's favorite is also Ou Ya, if that incandescent flame is some kind of weapon, then Ou De was in such a hurry to take Ou Ya away before, it can be explained! Think about it this way......

A smile tugged at the corner of the old man's mouth, "It seems that you already know the answer, sometimes as an outsider may see it more clearly, now I think you may be the first to leave the world of Tisball...... Ahem, ahem, ahem! As soon as the old man finished speaking, he coughed again. He covered his mouth with his hand, his whole body trembled, and the cough continued for more than ten seconds before stopping, and when he took his hand away, I saw blood on the palm of his hand.

"Don't worry too much, it's not the first time, it's just that my throat is uncomfortable."

He was lying, and it was evident from his haggard look and pale face that he was afraid that he was dying.

"The answer should be in the girl named Ouya, I'm afraid the rest can only rely on your own, I've talked too much today, I'm tired, you should go back."

I looked at the battery on the monitor, there was less than an hour left, and it was indeed time to go. I got up and tried to help the old man into the house, but he stopped me.

"I can still walk on my own, you can go quickly, if there is no power on the way, I can't lift you." As he spoke, he smiled.

Without saying anything more, I nodded and turned to walk towards the door. I'm afraid I'll always remember this old man's affairs, he helped me too much, but I couldn't help him with anything, maybe the only thing I could do was to really find the truth of this world with the hope in his eyes.

"Little machine." Hearing the old man's call, I stopped and turned to look at him.

"I did a lot of mistakes, even after I came into this world, and I ruthlessly sacrificed my teammates to achieve my goals. You must remember that you should never twist your soul, or even if you resurrect your lover, she will not be happy, and don't go my wrong path again. ”

I nodded heavily, and the old man waved his hand at me and said no more, and I left the antique bookstore and headed back to my lodgings.

……

"Oh, my mission is finally over, fortunately this old bone is still quite angry, and it is almost impossible to hold on......" The old man seemed to be relieved, his face became relieved, he smiled faintly, and slipped from his chair and fell to the ground as soon as his body went limp.

His breathing was already extremely weak, and the scenery in front of him was gradually blurring, and he was too tired and tired to finish what he had to say and pass on hope to the next person.

"Hehe, I'm still talking about you, why don't I worry about my own life......" A smile rippled at the corner of the old man's mouth, and the scenery in front of him was gradually replaced by pictures, and the figure of a woman slowly appeared in front of the door not far ahead. Her figure is a little chubby, with an apron tied on her body, her long hair tied in a ponytail at random, and her face cannot be seen clearly, only the smile on her face brings a kind and warm feeling.

"Mother......" At this time, the old man's eyes were full of tears, and he could not be more familiar with this kind figure, which was the mother who gave birth to him and raised him and worked for him all his life.

The arc of the old man's mouth rose a little more, but the tears couldn't stop flowing down, "Mother...... I've always ...... I've never told you...... In fact...... I'm glad I ...... I'm glad you're my mother...... It has always been ...... Thank...... Thank you...... I love you...... If there is an afterlife...... You're still my mother......"

Breathing gradually stopped, and the old man closed his eyes forever with a satisfied smile, and his mission was finally completed......

……

All the way back to the residence, the battery has bottomed out, if you set off a little later, I am afraid I will not be able to come back. When he came to Oude's door, he didn't open it, and he must have heard the footsteps brought by this heavy body. It seems that I have brought danger to Ouya, so that I have completely left a bad impression in Oude's heart.

With a deep sigh, I turned around and went back to my room.

Lying on the sleeping pod, my mind is still thinking about the conversation with the old man, there are so many things that have happened today, almost subverting my perception of the world, the more I understand it, the more I feel that there is a lot of fog ahead, and the truth of this world ......

In the end, it is only a preliminary guess that it may be related to Ouya, but it is not yet known how it is related. But now it's enough to know that, and I still have a few days to think about it.

I also wondered if I would have discovered something else if I had left Tisball with Ode, but in retrospect it was clearly not. On the fourth day of our arrival in Tisbor, dragons will attack humanity en masse, and everything will be destroyed. Even if Oude really has some means to solve the Wyvern, I'm afraid there are only two final results, either I am completely trapped here for eternity, or I die because of someone or something, anyway, it is not the ending I want.

Feeling a little tired...... It's the first time I've felt this way, and I haven't felt tired much all this time, probably because I have let go of some of my burdens...... My thoughts stopped, and I fell into a deep sleep.

By the time I opened my eyes again, it was the next morning, the second day since I had arrived at Tisball for the third time. As soon as I got up from the sleeping pod, Oude pushed the door and walked in, without saying anything, he came behind my back and replaced the battery and walked out of the door, or Ouya beckoned to me at the door to let me pass.

Judging from previous experience, the afternoon of the next day should have been when they went to the Tisball Arsenal on the ground to run errands, and the family also suffered misfortune at that time, and in the evening they were seen by Ouya, who wanted to go to the market, and their bodies were seen by Ouya, who caused a lot of trauma to her heart. If you think about it, it seems that such a scene will happen in any life.

I looked at Ouya who was bouncing and following Ou De, my mood was somewhat depressed, obviously the clue was in this girl, but I couldn't think of a reason.

Seeing Ouya's smile, Ou De had to shake his head helplessly, reaching out to touch Ou Ya's hair, Ou Ya naughtily turned around and let Ou De fall into the air, and the necklace around Ou Ya's neck naturally followed.

I happened to look at her inadvertently, and I was stunned when I saw the necklace. The bronze necklace was inlaid with white gemstones, and it looked pure and beautiful, shining in the light. But why is the jewel on this chain white? I think it's supposed to be gray.

I took a moment to think about it, the jewel on this necklace was indeed gray, but not at first, but when Oude forcibly pulled her onto the flying ship, the gem turned pure gray, and when I first saw Ouya, it was indeed white.

Looking in my memory, I suddenly realized that although there are many differences between the people of the first and second lives, there are a few things that happen every time, such as the military factory I will go to this afternoon, and Hualiu Street, and the dragon attack on the fourth day, these three things will be experienced no matter what. If you put these things on Ouya, she saw the corpse in the bazaar in the afternoon of the military factory, she was forced to ignore the girl's pleas for help in Hualiu Street, and she was forcibly pulled away by Oude when the Wyvern attacked, no matter which thing was the last thing she wanted to see, and every time something happened, the necklace on her chest seemed to dim a little until it turned dead gray.

How could such details be discovered by a person who is desperate to resurrect his lover, even if he is very calm. It seems that it is enough to stop these things from happening.

Ay...... I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed all over my body, but at the same time, I felt that my heart was so tired and tired. The real clue was always close to me, but I didn't notice it at all. After coming to this world, I destroyed all the things that needed to be protected, leaving only a distorted cold mask, Cher, I'm so stupid, I abandoned everything you like, I betrayed my conscience, sacrificed morality, hurt others, I really deserved to die, that sigh at that time, you were reminding me......

I'm sorry Cher, I miss you so much, I love you so much, but I lost the most precious thing because of it, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, please believe me one last time, wait for me again.
