"Eh......" Summer Night was stunned.

However, Lillian did have a blank expression on her face, as if she had never seen a summer night before.

She suddenly understood......

As a person who originally had no head, the summer night could not be clearer - the witch's memory was divided into two parts, one stored in a cup and the other in her head.

And Lillian, or the Lillian who used to be, now only has one cup left. The girl in front of her should be a backup body created by her through some kind of contract, right?

After placing the cup in the backup body, Lillian is able to "come back to life". However, the new Lilian inherited only the memories kept in the cup, and the other memories disappeared forever with the original body......

In this case, can the "Lilian" in front of him really be considered Lilian?

For a moment, Xia Ye even hated himself for reacting so quickly, and he figured everything out in just a few seconds. The cruel truth was like a knife in her chest, and it twisted a few more times.

"Sister? What is your name? My name is Lillian. Your expression looks so sad, is it because you are not feeling well? Is there anything Lilian can help with......"

Looking at "Lilian" in front of her, the summer night finally couldn't bear it anymore, and her emotions were like a flood that burst the embankment, surging out in one go. She pounced, hugged the girl hard, and cried loudly like a scream, completely losing her usual appearance.

The girl's body trembled slightly, as if she was startled, but she did not push the summer night away, but hugged her gently, and gently patted her back with her palm:

"Sister, cry if you want to, cry out, cry out and feel better."

"Don't ...... Woo...... Don't leave me...... Lilian ......"

"Lillian won't leave, Lillian is here."

"Woooooooooo......oo Woowoowoooooooo......oo

"Sister must have encountered something very sad, it's okay, Lilian will always be with you."

……

Obviously, the girl's body is even more petite than Xia Ye, but at this time, she is like a gentle mother, constantly comforting her. I don't know how long it took, but Summer Night's mood finally stabilized, and she sobbed intermittently for a while before reluctantly leaving Lilian's shoulder.

A dull ache continued to come from my heart.

The girl looked at the face of the crying flowers on the summer night, took off the backpack on her back, opened it, took out two tissues, and handed them to her.

"Sister, wipe it."

"Uh......h Thank you ......."

When the summer night wiped away her tears, the girl took out another cloak.

"That's all you need in your bag, so let's wrap it in it first."

"Hmmm......"

Like a small animal, Summer Night nodded obediently, took the cloak, and wrapped it around her body.

"Does my sister have a place to live? If you don't dislike it, you can go to my house, take a shower first, and I'll make something for you to eat. ”

Hearing these gentle words, Xia Ye raised her head and looked at the familiar but unfamiliar girl in front of her, she couldn't help but want to cry again.

"Actually...... I'll live in your house......" she said, holding back tears.

"Huh?"

"It started a month ago......

Summer Night spoke softly, starting from the first time she met Lillian, and told the experience between the two little by little. It was only at this time that she realized that she remembered so many details, which were obviously trivial things in life, and that she had only regarded Lilian's home as a place to live for free at first. However, every time I dragged my tired body to open the door of the house, I would hear the excited voice of "You're back, Sister Summer Night", and unconsciously, I had accepted, liked, and could no longer leave that warm feeling of home.

But I'm a fool and I've never paid attention to all this...... No, it is better to say that you are subconsciously avoiding and unwilling to face it, because only by turning your heart into cold steel, measuring everything in terms of interests, and turning yourself into a thorough egoist - only in this way will you not have to experience the pain of losing an important person again, and you will not be hurt.

I always thought that I had already become that kind of person.

But......

It wasn't until Lillian died that she suddenly realized that she was not as cold as iron, it was indeed cold, but it was just a fragile piece of ice that would shatter if you fell hard.

“…… You suddenly appeared in front of my eyes and helped me block the fatal blow of the moth, and even though it was painful that tears flowed from my eyes, you still tried to smile and say to me, 'You can trust me ......', and then, your body exploded, leaving only the cup. Thanks to you, I killed the Mothbeast. Then you appeared, took the cup from my hand, and put it inside you. I know you're Lillian, but... It's not the Lillian I used to know. ”

The girl listened quietly to the narration of the summer night, and it was not until the last sentence that she suddenly showed a surprised expression.

"Sister, actually, ......"

"Huh?"

"That, that ......" The girl's expression was a little strange, and there was a little ...... Regret?

Just as the summer night felt strange, I suddenly saw a glimmer of light in the girl's blue eyes.

The light flickered, and the girl's whole body froze for a moment. Summer Night immediately noticed that there seemed to be some inexplicable change in Lilian's body.

“？”

When Lilian recovered from her sluggish state, the expression on her face suddenly became more ...... It's weird. The girl's cheeks were red, a little excited, and a little embarrassed, and besides, Xia Ye saw in her eyes again, the expression as if she had done something bad......

"Summer, Summer Night, Sister...... That one...... I—I'm so happy......"

"Huh?" A bad premonition inexplicably rose in the heart of the summer night.

"If it weren't for listening to you, I wouldn't have known, it turns out that Sister Xia Ye attaches so much importance to me, and after losing me, she will be so sad, Lilian is really touched......" The girl looked at Xia Ye with red eyes.

"Wait, wait...... What the hell is going on......" The sense of foreboding grew stronger.

"I'm sorry I didn't have time to tell you before, actually...... The memories I keep in my brain will not be lost, and they will be uploaded to another ...... all the time place, after I change my body, this part of the memory will be synchronized to the new body, but ...... There was a delay of about twenty minutes, so, during this time, I would be like an amnesiac person......"

“？？？”

The premonition became a reality, and Summer Night's mouth opened wide and looked at Lillian.

She was happy, very, very happy, because Lillian, the real Lilian, was standing in front of her unscathed.

But......

If Lillian was all right, then the words she had just said in front of her, those fleshy words that made people snap their toes......

What the hell is it?!!

The most odious thing is...... Lillian is still snickering!

The girl was burying her head and wringing her fingers as she smirked:

"Hey...... I really didn't expect that Sister Xia Ye is such an emotional person...... Because you're always busy with that, and you don't look like you're having time to pay attention to me...... Sometimes Lilian can't help but think that she is really useless, maybe she is just a dispensable existence for Sister Summer Night...... But I didn't expect it...... That's how Sister Summer Night thinks of Lilian...... Lillian was really happy...... But, that's, that's what I heard...... It's still a little embarrassing...... Hey hey ......"

“…… Forget. ”

"Huh?"

Lillian looked up and saw that Summer Night was glaring at her with a look that was about to cry—not with grief, but with shame.

"Since you can upload and download memories or something, then you must be able to delete the memory just now, right?!"

"Huh, huh? Which memory is Sister Summer Night talking about? The girl blinked, and asked without any bad intentions.

"Which, which ......" Before Xia Ye could answer, his face turned red first.

"Is it the 'Lillian, please don't leave me'? Or is it the part that makes me feel so happy to hear your voice every time I come home? Or ......"

"Say no more!!"

Summer Night grabbed Lillian by the shoulders and looked at her for a moment, before quickly being defeated.

She lowered her head, let go of her hands, and slowly squatted on the ground, her whole body shrunk into a small ball, her palms covering her face, and between the pure white hair, only one ear that had become red was exposed.

"I'm sorry...... Sister Summer Night, however, Lilian's memories can't be deleted at will......"

She heard Lillian whisper.

"And...... For Lillian, it was also a very precious memory that she would never want to forget, and if she could, Lillian would always remember what Sister Summer Night had just said......"

I'll just say there's ^_^ no knife
