Previous Chapter: Extra 2 Forest of Terror 3

"Look, sister, it's snowing!"

I pointed out the window curiously, screaming excitedly.

After a night of heavy snowfall, the streets had turned white, and the carriages drove by, leaving traces in their wakes.

Sunnyvale, the capital of the Empire, had a spring season, so I had never seen snow as a child, but I learned from the stories my mother told me that there was such a magical sight.

At this time, my sister was lying on the bed, she had a high fever for several days, and she couldn't even move, and when she heard me say this, she reluctantly raised her head and smiled: "Well, really...... It's so beautiful......"

"Wow~" I still looked at the goose feather snow with emotion, and I couldn't help but open the window and reach out to catch the falling snowflakes. A large cloud of snow fell on the palm of my hand and slowly melted into water, which felt cool and comfortable.

At this time, I heard my sister coughing behind me, and hurriedly closed the window, the room was cold enough to let the precious heat escape.

"Sister, are you hungry?" I suddenly remembered that I was busy with my life, my sister was sick, and I should be the one to cook and take care of her, but I was distracted by the snow, "I'll prepare breakfast now!"

I opened the kitchen cabinet, and there was no food in it, and then I opened the rice bowl, and the rice in it was gone, so I went to get my sister's wallet, but unfortunately, we didn't even have any money left.

My sister is sick these days, so no one makes money, and the stored food is quickly eaten, what should I do now?

It was always not okay to stay at home and starve to death, so I put on my sister's coat and went out in the snow.

Two years ago, our family was fairly well-off, my father worked in a factory, and my mother worked as a servant in an aristocratic family. But one day, my father died at work, and my mother was also sick from work, so I soon went to compensate him, leaving our ten-year-old twin sisters to depend on each other.

The poor family can't afford to pay for two children to study, usually my sister helps with housework, I go to school, after my parents die, my sister can only go outside to make money, I want to drop out of school to help, but she disagrees, she said that I am the only hope for the family, if you want to change the status quo, you must have culture, can not give up halfway.

I lived up to my sister's expectations, my grades have been very good, but it didn't take long for my family to have no money to pay tuition, I could only be forced to study at home, usually do no housework, my sister washed the clothes, in order to prepare for next year's school admissions exam, I am sprinting with all my might, it is said that there can be preferential treatment for extremely poor students, and scholarships to offset the tuition.

But finally one day, my sister fell ill, in order to take care of her, I had to put down the book, take over all her work, but then I realized that I don't know anything, just like a daughter, the clothes can't be washed, and the food is burned, but my sister is still not picky, and often apologizes to me.

It wasn't until I was about to go out that I found that I couldn't wear my previous clothes, so I could only borrow my sister's clothes to wear, and after two years of not going out, I suddenly realized that I had traveled to another world, and everything around me was so unfamiliar, and I suddenly lost my sense of direction.

"Morning, Miss Tirecher!" an unknown shoemaker uncle beckoned to me, but it was my sister's name.

"Why haven't I seen you for so many days?" said the uncle, "I thought you were sick." ”

"You...... Hello. I didn't know how to explain it to him, but remembering the address my sister had given me, I asked, "Uncle, how do I get to Canterbell Street?"

The uncle looked at me with the eyes of a monster, "Hey, isn't this where you often work? Why don't you know memories?"

I sneered, trying to explain the situation to him, but I felt that it was too troublesome, and I completely lost my ability to communicate after two years of separation from society.

But my uncle was kind enough to point me in the direction, "Go ahead, cross two streets, turn left, and you will reach the intersection!"

"Thank you!" I hurriedly walked forward.

"Hey, don't forget it's the Osborne Hotel, don't go to the wrong place!" Uncle Shoemaker didn't forget to remind.

I walked in the snow and Sunnyvale never snowed, so there were no snowshoes for sale, I wore flat boots. There will be a thin layer of ice on the ground that is being driven by horse-drawn carriages, and if you don't step on it, you will slide.

There were already a lot of pedestrians on the road, sitting there and scolding, I almost got hit, and now I feel that the snow is not fun at all.

...............

When I came to the designated place, a fierce woman was yelling at me, "You dead girl, where did you go to the wilderness? Don't you want to do it after you haven't come to work for so many days?"

"I'm sorry...... I could only bear it silently, "I've been sick for several days, and I'm only getting better today." ”

"Then you won't ask someone to bring a message?" the woman still didn't stop, "do you know how busy we are young people, tell you, you're all gone this month's bonus!" and threw a dirty rag at me, "What are you still doing?"

"Yes...... It's ......" I said so, but I didn't know what I was supposed to do.

The colleague was also a little girl, with dark skin, and when she saw the proprietress walking away, she stepped forward and asked, "Ti Ruixue, I heard that you are sick?"

"yes, I got a cold. "I didn't know her, but I didn't want to be suspected.

"Oh, don't be viral!" the girl subconsciously took two steps back, "Why is it so fast?

I shook my head, what a joke, how could a place as tall as a hospital be accessible to people like us.

"Is it okay to work?" the girl asked with concern, "Do you still feel sad?"

"Don't be sad. I then asked, "So what are we going to do?"

"Hey, you can't have a burned brain, do you?" the girl exclaimed, and then suddenly realized, "Oh, you're pretending to be stupid and trying to be lazy, aren't you? It's not that easy! Then he threw the mop in his hand in my hand, "Go, clean the toilet first, then tidy up the kitchen, wash the dishes, wash everyone's work clothes, clear the snow, and help serve the food at night......"

............

I have never worked, of course, I will inevitably be scolded, the toilet is so dirty, how can it be wiped clean? There are so many dishes, how can it be washed quickly? The weather is cold and the water temperature is so biting, is it not normal for my hands to be numb and break a few plates? This has to be deducted from wages, which is really unreasonable!

"Ti Ruixue, I don't think you want to do it anymore!" the proprietress looked like a life-threatening ghost in the back, "I used to think you were quite neat, but now your bones are loose?

Well, I'll wash my brush, I'll wash and brush!

At the end of the day, I'm tired as a dog, I haven't eaten today, and now my stomach growls with hunger.

The proprietress squinted at me, her eyes were vicious, I was a little scared, I didn't know how much money I could take today, don't tell me that it's not enough money to lose the plate.

"Take it!" the proprietress threw me a money bag, which I opened with joy and saw that the amount was far beyond my expectations.

"It's next month, I'll lend you first. Although the proprietress said sharply, her attitude changed, "There are still a few bags of leftovers in the kitchen, you can also take them back." ”

I was flattered, how could this old witch be so merciful?

"Take good care of your sister. The proprietress continued, "She's a good employee, I hope she recovers soon, we need her in the store." ”

Hearing her say this, I couldn't help but be moved, it turned out that she already knew that I was an impostor.

I was about to say something, but the lady interrupted me: "Although your performance is terrible, you still work hard, and I hope to improve tomorrow." ”

"Hmm!" I was so encouraged, I grabbed the money and food, and hurried home.

............

About a week later, my sister almost recovered, we went back to our normal life, and I started to prepare for the exam again, but the good times didn't last long, the store where my sister worked closed down, and I never saw the vicious proprietress again, and then our lives fell into crisis again.

I wanted to go to work with my sister to earn money, but she didn't agree, she insisted that I study, she picked up rags every day, asked for food, and even sold blood during the most difficult period, but she still didn't have money for me to eat, live and buy school supplies.

In the end, my sister decided to sell, I was too young to understand the dangers of doing this business, what I could see was that the conditions of my family were improving day by day, and I even felt that the nightclub job was good, and I didn't have to work very hard to make money, so I proposed to work with my sister, but I received a cold slap from her.

I couldn't understand that, why did she hit me when I was out of good intentions? I wanted to fight back, but I saw her eyes with tears in them.

She put her hand on the top of my head and said softly, "Little fool, my sister is willing to do anything for you, because you are ...... You are the only sustenance for my sister's life!" she suddenly hugged me, "Even if you die for you, but you promise me that you must live well and be happy!"

I couldn't understand what she meant, but I could feel that she loved me, and I hugged her tightly, and we cried together for a long time, and I never asked for it again.

Later, I was admitted to the coveted school, and was admitted to the military academy that everyone was very jealous of, and my sister was ransomed by a marquis to become his maid, and our fate finally turned around, but we had to separate and live our own lives.

After five years in the academy, I was trained like hell, and I don't want to remember it anymore because it was so cruel.

At first, I thought that I could start a warm college life, bloom my youth, and meet a handsome guy and talk about a vigorous love, but it turned out to be nothing, every day in addition to training and training, the Imperial Research Group even conducted a radioactive mutation test on our body, which made the skin of my left hand lose its normal complexion, and I became like a vitiligo patient.

What's even more outrageous is that every semester, instead of taking entrance exams, we fight each other, and only those who are alive are eligible to continue studying, so our numbers have been decreasing, and there is no friendship between our peers, only deep hostility.

But I put up with it, because the Empire promised that if we graduated alive, we would become nobles and enjoy the treatment of high citizens, and yes, this is what I want to strive for day and night.

When I was a child, I had a lot of plans, but the premise was "if I become a nobleman, I will ......", so aristocracy is my pursuit, the premise of all my dreams, and now it is so close to me.

As I grow up year by year, my heart has become more and more ruthless and mature, and I would have hesitated to kill people, but now I don't even blink my eyes. In order to make us more persevering, the school also often organized us to go to the execution site to execute prisoners.

As the knife fell, a head flew up, blood splashed all over me, I began to like this feeling, looking at the pitiful eyes of the condemned prisoners, I seemed to have become the king of Hades, holding the power of life and death and seizing power, yes, this is the right, it is the superior!

Eventually, I graduated with perfect marks and was spotted by the Elite Knights of the Empire, who awarded me the title of Lord and the Order of Noble Knighthood, and my mood was filled with happiness.

I was canonized by Joska, the captain of the Seventh Brigade of the Royal Knights, a man with a perpetual smile on his face.

"Are you willing to give your body and soul to the Empire?" He asked solemnly.

"I do!" I replied, half-kneeling in front of him, without hesitation.

"Are you willing to give everything for the organization, including your life?"

"I do!"

"Very well, you get up. Joska helped me up and smiled, "Congratulations on becoming the number 62 member of our Order, you will not have a name in the future, the number 62 will stay with you for the rest of your life, can you agree?"

"Of course. "I don't care about the name or anything.

Joska nodded, "Number 62, but before that, you have one last loyalty test left." ”

"Just command!" I replied loudly, "no matter what I ask my subordinates to do, I will go to the soup!"

"Hehe...... Joska sneered and waved his hand, "bring it on." ”

Somehow, I suddenly felt a little uneasy, and an ominous premonition came over me.

I saw two guards escorting a young woman dressed as a maid and walked up.

I felt like I was about to suffocate, and even though I hadn't seen her in five years, I recognized her at a glance.

"Sister!" I shouted, trying to rush up and hug her, and she called my name, trying to break free from the guards' hands, but they held me down.

"Let go of my sister, this is my sister!" I think that now that I am a nobleman, I should be able to give orders to ordinary soldiers.

But they were indifferent, as if I didn't exist at all.

"Number 62!" Joska snatched up from behind me and reached out to stop me, "Don't get excited, listen to me first, it's said that your sister works in the Marquis of Besses's palace, right?"

"yes, so what?" I asked impatiently.

"Hmph, they're mortal enemies of our Knights. Joska said, "You have this relationship, but I'm afraid it will be bad for your career." ”

I gritted my teeth, understood what he meant, and hurriedly said, "Then I will persuade her to leave." ”

"No, no. Joska sneered, "Even if she resigns, then she has served the hostile forces, who knows if she will collaborate with the enemy?"

I felt like my teeth were about to break, and I never dreamed that they would use my sister to embarrass me, although my mind is mature, but my sister is my most important bond, I don't want them to hurt her, so I made a difficult choice, "Okay, I cut off my sisterhood with her, from now on, I don't know Ti Ruixue on the 62nd, and I won't communicate with her for the rest of my life!"

Hearing me say this, my sister's eyes suddenly moistened, she lowered her head, and her tears couldn't stop falling.

But why am I not in great pain? Our hearts are broken at this moment.

But Joska was clearly not satisfied, he waved his fingers again and again, and said flirtatiously: "Is there only a little bit of your loyalty to the Empire?

I suppressed my anger and asked, "So what does the chief want his subordinates to do?"

He handed me a dagger, "Now is the last chance to show your loyalty, you can figure out what to do for yourself!"

My mind went blank, and my hand holding the knife was shaking wildly. His meaning couldn't be more obvious, he wanted me to kill my sister, just kidding, how could this be?

That's right, I want to be a nobleman, I want to look down on all beings, I want to ascend to the sky in one step, but I definitely won't take my sister under the knife, she is my twin sister!

I was raised since I was a child, and in order for me to succeed in my studies, she did chores, asked for food, picked up rags, and even sold blood!

Yes, now that I have a chance, I have risen to the top, and I have lived up to her expectations, but how can I forget her? Not only that, but how can I point a knife at her?

Am I a brute? No, the crow can feed back, am I not even as good as a beast?

Thinking of this, the knife in my hand fell in response.

Joska's eyes changed when he looked at me, his smile completely disappeared, he patted me on the shoulder, and said in a dark voice, "Is this your answer to me? Is this your loyalty to the Empire?

Then he stomped back and forth, still babbling, "Do you know what kind of behavior you are doing? Harboring the relatives of the enemy forces is treason! He will be stripped of his knightly qualifications and hanged in public!

I didn't care about his words at all, and now I know that I have embarked on a path of no return, and now it's too late to turn back, okay, if you can't resist, then leave it to fate......

"Little fool ......" At this time, a hand was placed on the top of my head, and this familiar feeling immediately melted my heart, yes, this is my sister's hand.

Since I was a child, whenever I was sad and confused, my sister would comfort me like this, "You promise me, live well, you are my sister's only hope and sustenance, your happiness is my happiness, we can feel each other's hearts, because we are twin sisters, aren't we?"

My body was shaking, my teeth were shaking, and the sadness prompted me to cry, but my body instinctively prevented me from doing so.

Then, my sister picked up the dagger on the ground, put it in my hand, and said softly: "My sister can't live anymore, even if you don't do it, they won't let me go, in this case, don't hesitate anymore, live in my place, let me die in your hands, okay?"

I wanted to shake my head, I wanted to say no, but I couldn't speak, I couldn't say a word, maybe subconsciously I had acquiesced to her words, and I had gradually turned into a devil and desperate to live, so I was resisting my conscience. I didn't dare to look up, I was afraid that I would lose my mind.

My sister saw that I didn't move, so she continued to persuade: "Since we were children, we have had a rough life, and I have been thinking that if God is destined for us to only live one, then I hope it is you, so I am happy to die, so ...... It's not a bad thing, my sister is willing to give everything for you, even if it's her life......" Then she raised my hand, pointed the sharp knife to my throat, and said loudly, "Come on, do it! Don't let me die at the hands of a coward!"

My eyes were already wet, and the fire burned all over my body, and suddenly, I couldn't help but scream, raised my knife and slashed down, the tentacles felt like I had killed a prisoner during an execution.

At this moment, I felt that these hands were not my own, but I remember slashing and slashing, and each knife was as painful as if it had been cut on me.

By the time I regained my composure and stopped, my sister was already lying in a pool of blood, still with a happy smile on her face.

"Wow......" I threw myself on top of her and cried, saying I'm sorry, and Joska laughed from behind......

............

I held my sister's body, came to the cemetery near my hometown, and buried her well, now I have completely lost my expectations and desires for the future, without my sister, my life will lose all color, leaving behind infinite loneliness, I want to go back to my childhood, become the ignorant me, live a poor but very warm life with my sister, think about the future life, in addition to killing or killing, is this the life I pursue?

At this time, the sky darkened, the clouds were thick, and the goose-feather snow began to fall, and I looked up to see the snowflakes flying in the sky.

"Wow, I haven't seen snow in years!" someone next to him sighed.

"yes, I remember going down when I was a kid, and I haven't seen it since. ”

I look at the snowflakes and can't help but think back to my childhood, these snowflakes are beautiful, but they will soon wither, right? Just like my sister's young life.

I couldn't help it, my tears fell and dripped on the snowflakes on my sister's grave.
