Chapter 159
"Warning: The player's survival points are running low! Please replenish as soon as possible!"
"Ding—the player's survival points are zero! The countdown to life extension is 60 seconds, please add survival points as soon as possible!"
"60, 59, 58..."
"3, 2, 1—survival points are zero!"
"Ding - the game is over, the resurrection failed."
With the failure and end of the game, the life signal that was still active gradually faded, almost inaudible, and finally cleared to zero.
At the same time that life dissipated, the ruler on the human plane sensed it. He silently watched the world he had been controlling since ancient times. He didn't even remember when he became The current own is just that he hasn't felt such mood swings for a long time.
He had noticed long ago that this life was different from all the others.
Human beings, monsters, ghosts, dead spirits... There are various ways of life, but in the end, they are all inseparable from life and death. No matter how powerful a creature is, it will eventually perish. Nothing in this world can exist forever, the only thing that is eternal It's time.
And he is in charge of time.
From ancient times to the present, from the era dominated by monsters, ghosts and gods to the era when human beings dominate the hidden abilities, and then to the chaos and doomsday of the world, and then a new order and way of life are born, and a new era begins.
He has seen this kind of thing countless times. One person died, two people died, tens of thousands died, and hundreds of millions were annihilated. Such a tragic event cannot even be called death, but a part of history.
He has seen too much, whether it is a human being with a short lifespan but excellent intelligence, or a non-human being with a long lifespan and powerful strength, all life will end. This is the law and law of nature, and no one can escape.
Even the vampires who live forever in darkness will meet their doomed death. Even if they escape time, they cannot escape the fate of time arrangement.
Even the gods would perish, except him.
Maybe he is a god, maybe not.
In this world, he represents time, and what it is has no meaning to him.There is no name, no memory, no emotional recognition, only eternity, which is time.
Therefore, he has no mood swings, and he cannot feel any feeling about the birth and death of life, so the time he planned can be used in an orderly manner towards the established end point, without mistakes or omissions.
Except for one human.
There is a human being who breaks free from the laws of time, or in other words, she just wants to escape death, but because of this, she strays into the cycle of time.
She is still a human being, she has not turned into any other biological species that can prolong her life, she is still just an ordinary weak, smart and selfish human being.
But she survived longer than those apparently immortal creatures.
No one is immune to death.
But she cunningly used this method to deceive time and him.But time also punished her, 500 years, 1000 years, 1 years, she will never leave this reincarnation.
She has failed.
Time is not so easy to steal, either way, it is extremely difficult and costly.
All living beings cherish their lives, and they will always struggle.
He's used to it, and occasionally he'll pass the endless hours watching them struggle in the face of death.
Long-lived creatures complain of eternal boredom and misery, and when they do die, struggle endlessly.
That's because they don't yet know what the real eternity is.
500 years, 1000 years, 5000 years... long?
For him, it's not just a fraction of an endless time.
But for them, it is forever.
For that human who was also struggling in the face of death, that was enough time for her to sacrifice other things in exchange for survival.
He knew that there were things from other planes in her body, which was probably why she was able to use this method to survive.
If he sensed it, he should be expelled.
This does not belong to this plane, and she does not belong to this plane after binding.
But he still left this poor and despicable human being.
How pitiful, I would rather be controlled and live without freedom.
How despicable, trading an emotion so precious to someone else for their life.
Silently watching that life gradually die out due to failure, time fell silent. In the incomparably long years, he has seen countless such things, and this is just one of the countless.
but……
Turning her head to look at the red-haired boy behind her for a while, the bright and attractive girl stood up in the class, she bent down and kissed him, part of the broken bubble gum stuck to his lips, so when kissing him, still Can taste sweet and sticky taste.
All the voices suddenly fell silent, and everyone turned around in shock and curiosity to see them kissing majestically in the classroom, as if watching a high-ranking goddess fall into the human world, so they were dumbfounded and refused to look away .
It turned out that they were really together.
But once you associate the extremely normal thing of dating and dating with a girl kissing someone else, you feel that it is a bit unbelievably surprising and weird.
Even if everyone cares about her gossip, no one really thinks that she will like anyone in school, they always feel—
It's impossible for such a perfect person to look up to.
"Suzuki-san!"
Putting the shouts behind her behind her, the girl with exquisite eyebrows and eyes turned and left the classroom bombarded by the sudden declaration of love.
She was beautiful enough to be a famous painting hung on the wall of the palace, and even the movements of raising her hand to stroke her hair looked like well-designed animations.
But the girl who just kissed her classmates in front of everyone in the class did not show any emotion. Her snow-white skin was still soft and smooth with a light natural blush, but it was not a blush caused by embarrassment.
Although those bright eyes filled with fine starlight were beautiful and gentle, they faintly revealed a kind of calm indifference. She left the unfinished self-study class without saying a word.
There were classrooms on both sides of the corridor, and she was the only one in the quiet corridor. She was not worried about meeting the teacher, so she just walked down the stairs.
The slender figure is wrapped in the school uniform of the High School Affiliated to Lihai University. Even though the western-style uniform and short skirt are all black, which makes people feel dull, there is a bright and gorgeous style wearing on the delicate and gorgeous girl.
Even if she walked past quietly, the people sitting by the window couldn't stop looking at her during the teacher's lecture.
Seeing the girl walking far alone and even going down the stairs, the boy frowned at the thought of something, and he stood up decisively, attracting all the sideways glances in the classroom.
"What's the matter?" Because his grades were excellent and his usual performance was very good, the teacher was not angry, but asked very gently.
"Sorry, teacher." The boy bowed slightly, his upright figure and handsome face made people feel pleasing no matter what he did, "I feel a little sick to my stomach."
"That's it, then you go." After finishing speaking, the teacher added a word of concern, "If you still feel uncomfortable, you can go to the infirmary to have a look."
But the young man was in no mood to listen anymore, he just nodded hurriedly to thank him, and then walked out from the back door of the classroom.
Thinking that he was really uncomfortable, the teacher didn't care about his eagerness, just coughed twice to draw the attention of other students in the classroom, and continued to teach.
She had already finished, so she didn't need to care about what happened in the school anymore, but when she walked to the school gate, Suzuki Suzuka still paused, and she couldn't help but look back.
There are familiar buildings behind her, and the way to leave in front of her. Suzuki Suzuka can still feel some inexplicable emotions. She has been in this school for nearly two and a half years, even if she avoids everything and strategy Unrelated things still left a memory about this school.
Letting out a breath, Suzuki Suzuka looked at it for a while and then turned her head. No matter how reluctant she is, she still has to leave. She has already collected all the survival points, and staying any longer is just a waste of time.
After clicking on the attribute page, she pressed the restart button without hesitation.
"Bell flower!"
A sudden sound came from behind her, which startled the girl. She paused in her hand, barely staying a centimeter away from the virtual interface buttons that only she could see, interrupting Suzuki Suzuka's speech. action.
But it was just a pause. Suzuki Suzuka heard the voice, but she didn't look back, but continued to press it after a short hesitation. She still had to leave in the end. Saying goodbye would only add to the sadness, and they wouldn't remember it anyway. Yes, so it's better not to get involved.
However, a hand stretched out from behind and pulled Suzuki Suzuka's wrist quickly and forcefully. The calluses on the palm, abdomen and fingertips were grinding the girl's delicate skin.
The owner of the hand has practiced tennis for a long time, so her fingers and wrist are very strong. Once she holds Suzuki Suzuka, she can't press it down.
The person holding her pulled slightly, but Suzuki Suzuka didn't resist, and turned around to face the visitor in obedience to the other party's wishes. She looked at the young man who came here for some reason, and her brows were slightly frowned, both puzzled and melancholy hesitate.
He came here by running, so there are some ups and downs in his breath that has always been stable. This distance is not too much for a teenager who often increases his training in private, but he is a little nervous when facing Suzuki Suzuka at the moment. , so the slight shortness of breath is actually affected by emotions.
The boy opened his eyes, and his clear pupils appeared lighter than usual under the bright outdoor light, as if they had become a little more transparent, vaguely reflecting the shadow of Suzuki Suzuka.He has grown very tall at this age, so he can easily look down on the girl when he approaches her.
Glancing at Suzuki Suzuka, she looked away. She was not used to the sudden hot gaze of the other party, so she turned her head slightly, not daring to look directly at him.
This stalemate is not a solution, the attribute page she opened has not been closed, it is still unfolding in front of her eyes, waiting for her to press restart at any time.
So the girl moved her lips, wanting to say something, but the other party asked first.
"Why are you leaving?"
Unexpectedly, he would ask this question, Suzuki Suzuka was slightly taken aback, but she quickly calmed down and thought of a reasonable explanation, "...I just want to go home, there is something at home."
Seeing that the boy on the opposite side fell silent without speaking, Suzuki Suzuka lowered her eyes and looked at the place where their bodies touched. Even though she stopped, the boy's hand still held her tightly.
"Liu Jun, can you take your hand away?"
"you are lying."
As soon as her eyes moved, Shilian Er opened his mouth. When he opened his eyes, he was very different from squinting his eyes slightly, like a sword that was always in its sheath was pulled out, warm as if Yu's temperament has also become fierce, so that it won't make people uncomfortable, but it won't make people ignore it either.
Once the dusty sword is pulled out, it will be difficult to seal it, and he has endured long enough.
Shi Renji said too firmly, but she, the speaker, forgot to refute, and he didn't give Suzuki Suzuka time to think and make up reasons, "When you lie, there is a 48.9% chance that you will lower your eyes , with a 51.1% chance of touching the hair next to the ear."
His eyes were narrow and long, so even if he didn't deliberately create pressure, he would look sharp, and the boy was looking at her intently now, all his emotions and thoughts were concentrated in his eyes, even if Suzuki Suzuka wanted to ignore it, it would be difficult.
"If I hadn't held your hand, you would raise your hand to comb your hair now." Maybe it was because of some urgency, so he spoke faster than before, with a sense of urgency, "Right?"
He knew her far better than Suzuki Suzuka imagined.
In this short confrontation, what was revealed behind the scenes was the effort Shirenji had spent in collecting related information on Suzuki Suzuka in the past few years. The more carefully he understood, the more he cared about Suzuki Suzuka.
The girl also realized this, she struggled to grab her wrist, but couldn't break free from Renji's hand, so she could only raise her eyes to look at him.
"So what?" She pursed her lips, which meant that Suzuki Suzuka was now a little bit resistant. Her plan was to leave immediately after collecting the favorability points, but the appearance of Renji interrupted her plan. So Suzuki Suzuka was a little irritable.
The longer it drags on, the more reluctant it will be. This is not the first episode of Suzuki Suzuka. She knows that nostalgia for the past will only hurt herself. May I?"
She shook her hand, using all her strength this time, she knew she couldn't break free, but this let Shi Renji know that she really wanted to leave, the boy usually wouldn't make things difficult for Suzuki Suzuka, he was good at analysis , and always stay out of it, so I can see it most clearly.
But he himself fell into it, and he talked about what he didn't understand.
Unlike what Suzuki Suzuka thought, Shirenji not only did not let go but also held Suzuki Suzuka tightly, "This is none of my business."
"what?"
Shocked by his actions, Suzuki Suzuka didn't react and asked again in surprise.
"Your matters are all related to me." The boy repeated it loudly without hesitation. He stared intently at Suzuki Suzuka. He had been watching from the sidelines for too long, and the matter had nothing to do with him, but it was even more tormenting.
Why can't it be him?
Because Suzuki Suzuka chose someone else, because his friends also like her, because he doesn't want to screw up the relationship between them, because many...
He just thinks too much.
"I like you."
Shi Renji had confessed to Suzuki Suzuka before, but she did not accept it.
But considering all kinds of things, he still didn't say this sentence out of his mouth. How could it count if he didn't say it? Looking at the girl's starry eyes, he took a deep breath, as if he could feel the struggle of his tightly clenched wrist Sometimes it drives the heartbeat that is beating violently in his chest.
Quiet, Suzuki Suzuka didn't move anymore, and she didn't move her eyes this time either, just silently staring at Shirenji in front of her.
Maybe because he felt that the previous sentence was not good enough, the boy slowed down again, and repeated it very seriously: "I like you."
Suzuki Suzuka's expression paused, she looked at the boy for a while, opened her lips and finally responded, even though it was no longer necessary after the favorability point was full, she still answered seriously.
Although she will leave here soon, and now this sincere boy will eventually forget the person he loved so much, Suzuki Suzuka nodded after a pause.
"Well, I know."
Seemingly surprised that what Suzuki Suzuka said was this sentence, Renji opened his eyes, and then smiled helplessly with his lips bent, light and gentle, "...the next sentence is that the probability of rejection is 100% .”
"It's not that you are bad." Burned by that soft and faint smile, Suzuki Suzuka subconsciously wanted to look away, but she still restrained the urge to escape, and looked at the handsome boy seriously, "It's just I--"
"It's just that you don't like me."
Maybe it was to revenge Suzuki Suzuka, Renji smiled and countered with what she said, "Well, I know."
"I still know." Unclamping slightly, Shirenji moved his fingers from Suzuki Suzuka's wrist to the girl's soft and delicate palm, "You have no one you like."
The girl restrained her calm eyes and looked at him in surprise. She murmured, "Mr. Liu."
"I thought you liked Genichiro, but you don't." Uncovering all the things that should have been hidden in secrets made Renji's eyes sink slightly, but he continued to talk, because he Knowing that this is his last chance, "...if you really like him, you won't agree to leave him."
"Isn't it?"
The virtual light screen that only she can see is still flickering on one side, but Renji is still holding her hand, he unfolds the truth naked, everything is hard to hide, Suzuki Suzuka frowned Lips, "I don't like him, and I won't like you."
This is considered an admission.
"So, I won't like other people either."
Completely beyond Suzuki Suzuka's expectation, Shirenji was not hit by her blunt refusal at all, but got closer. He calmly completed her words, so the person who felt nervous became she.
"Normal people's emotions fluctuate from 0 to 100, both negative and positive, but yours is only 0 to 10."
He studied for a long time before he dared to confirm this matter. In fact, it is not difficult to find it if he observes carefully. It's just that Shi Renji didn't want to connect this defect with Suzuki Suzuka, so he stayed in Suzuki Suzuka's dislike of Sanada. on this conclusion.
"It's not that you don't like it, it's that you can't like it."
Touching the truth step by step, Shirenji became more and more calm. He knew that this was an extremely critical moment. Whether he was completely rejected by Suzuki Suzuka or accepted by her would be determined by his next sentence.
The tip of his leather shoe touched Suzuki Suzuka's shoe, and Renji stopped. He was already very close to this girl who was secretly loved and admired by countless people, but he knew that he was actually far, far away, even Not qualified to contact the real Suzuki Suzuka.
Suzuki Suzuka has an emotional disorder.
He had to confirm his new conclusion in the end, so her refusal was no different than her acceptance.
The more things you don't have, the more you want to get them.
That's why she doesn't refuse other people's overtures.
Renji guessed that the reason why she chose Genichiro Sanada among them was probably because he showed the most obvious liking for Suzuki Suzuka.
Yukimura Seiichi is too good at covering up, if he doesn't want others to know, others can't know, and he is too used to keeping a low profile, once he notices other people's affection for Suzuki Suzuka, he restrains his own thoughts.
If he had acted more clearly, Suzuki Suzuka would have chosen him.
No matter how much you regret the past, the key is, what to do in the future, how to grab Suzuki Suzuka?
"Get in touch with me."
He gently held Suzuki Suzuka's hand, and the young man's slender fingers penetrated between her fingers. Suzuki Suzuka's skin was very fair, and his complexion was not dark, so the handshake would not be abrupt.
Shirenji stared at him, and Suzuki Suzuka became nervous unconsciously when he became serious. She had seen Shirenji who was focused on winning in the arena, and knew that he couldn't be more serious at the moment, so even if she didn't want to listen , or chose to listen quietly.
"I'll let you know what you like."
He studied countless times, just for this moment.
If he hadn't seen Suzuki Suzuka leaving strangely during class, Renji wouldn't have said it in such a hurry, but he vaguely felt that it would be too late if he didn't say anything, so he chased him out impulsively.
He could have arranged it better and more perfectly, but it's not so bad now.After saying it, Xie Lianji felt strangely indifferent, if it wasn't for the beating of the heart in his chest so violently, he almost thought that he really didn't care about the answer anymore.
"In front of me, you don't need to act." The heart was beating so fast, so Shirenji couldn't help but take another deep breath to calm down the heartbeat, "What I like is only Suzuki Suzuka, not Lihai Ji."
Suzuki Suzuka has been listening to Shirenji's words, although Suzuki Suzuka is serious, but it is only out of respect.
But suddenly, the girl's expression gradually changed. Shirenji was actually not sure which of his words moved her, but he knew that he moved Suzuki Suzuka, and that was enough.
"Linghua, don't you want to give it a try?"
He let go of Suzuki Suzuka's hand, and turned to spread his palm, with the palm stretched out towards her, and his fingers were still buckled slightly inward due to tension, as long as something fell into his palm, he would Hold on tight immediately.
The slightly cool fingertips tentatively reached into the palm of Shi Lianji, causing him to tremble subconsciously, and then he tightened his fingers to hold the hand that came back after he let go.
With a strong tug, the young man hugged the slender figure into his arms.
However, when it was buried in the boy's chest, Suzuki Suzuka made a voice after a long silence: "I am dating Yagyu-kun."
Shi Lianji didn't speak.
"Niou-kun confessed to me, and I didn't refuse." Suzuki Suzuka's voice seemed a bit muffled as he stuck to the boy's body, "I also agreed to Marui-kun's confession."
"and also……"
She was still opening her mouth, and the breath she exhaled was sprayed on Shirenji's chest, as if it could reach all the way to his heart, he pulled Suzuki Suzuka away, then lowered his head and kissed the person who was going to spoil the atmosphere by chattering at this moment.
She agreed to associate with him, and he would not give her any chance to test others.
No one here knows Suzuki Suzuka better than him, so Shirenji is the most suitable candidate and the person who knows what to do best. With him, Suzuki Suzuka doesn’t have to do anything, he will take out everything To please her without expecting anything in return.
This is called love, and he will teach Suzuki Suzuka himself.
The attribute page stayed for too long, Suzuki Suzuka looked at it for a while, and finally reached out and closed it.
She thought, just stay here for a while, she still has so many survival points.
Anyway, she has already been ambiguous with so many people. After knowing the truth, Shi Lianji will leave her, and the other targets of the raid will also leave her, and there will be no delay if she leaves again.
Closing her eyes lightly, Suzuki Suzuka let herself be immersed in this delicate and gentle kiss for the time being, this was her first kiss that was not carefully calculated to manage her favorability.
It's nothing special, neither ridiculously sweet nor intoxicating.
However, when their lips touched, Suzuki Suzuka couldn't help but think wildly when there was no need to worry, it turns out that other people's lips are so soft.
And once she stayed, she never left again.
Time watched her struggle and demise, and then he made a decision without saying a word, giving this human being another chance, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a punishment for her.
However, he was a little bit reluctant to part with this life, which simply passed away like that.
The second time, he sped up her peripheral time a little bit, and this time she left decisively.
"Goodbye, Li Haida."
Watching her disappear from this node of the timeline, the God of Time moved his eyes and turned to look at another time node, and then the disappeared human appeared there as he expected.
Then there is a new one, another strategy.
Even if he didn't agree, he didn't stop her from doing so. This was the fate that came into being after her own choice, and he couldn't intervene to change it.
"You've already stepped in."
Somehow, the ancient law that maintains this plane has been distorted, and the law of causality in the world has also changed because of his adjustment.
He warned himself, there is no second time.
Time was still moving forward forever, and he also put away his slightly fluctuating mind and continued to observe the movement of time.However, destiny is like this. Human beings have destiny, and gods will naturally have it, and no one can escape.
As long as there is an exception, there will be a next time.
