Chapter 930 Chapter 920 Eight · "Life after life, eternal life."

"Today is celebrating your birthday, so there's no need to overwhelm the host." Su Mingan shook his head.

"But, Detective, do you know what my birthday wish is?" Alice's mouth curled up.

"What is it?"

"My birthday wish is—" Alice approached, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in his ear: "[I hope Mr. Detective can have a happy birthday.]"

Her voice was light and ethereal, but each word was bitten clearly, like when she was 12 years old, she held his hand and walked forward step by step in the heavy snow.

Su Mingan's eyes flickered slightly.

At this moment, like a flock of birds flying into the room from the wide open window, they crashed into the bottom of his heart.

He doesn't know how he feels.All the warmth of the Tenth World seemed to gather here.

People presented gifts to Su Mingan one by one.

The red-haired teenager is Pat the Wild Child.With his pocket in his pocket and a somewhat awkward personality, he handed Su Mingan a sunny doll: "Here, detective, thank you for giving the children 39 Kerr two years ago. This is the sunny doll that the children made for you together."

The blond-haired young man was Knight Wendell. He was wearing a white shirt and looked reserved and clean.He carefully handed a stack of postcards to Su Mingan: "Mr. Detective, this is a postcard of all the lakes in Fort City. Happy birthday to you."

The brown-haired man is Difu the hunter. He looked a little indifferent, and handed a few bullets to Su Mingan: "This is the bullet I made. It can be used in the gun in the future. Protect Alice."

The blue-haired boy is the only son of the Baron's family, Issy. He smiled softly and gave Su Mingan a golden pocket watch: "Detective Your Excellency, this is a collection of antiques I bought at the auction. I heard that you like antiques very much." , maybe this will help you."

The one with short brown hair is Josh, a fighter. She patted Su Mingan on the shoulder carelessly: "Brother Detective, if you meet a bad guy in the future, put on the boxing gloves I gave you to fight, it's powerful!"

Finally, Mei Mi, the neighbor's gardener sister, gave Su Mingan a bouquet of beautiful white lilies, and said timidly, "Mr. Detective, I wish you peace and happiness in the future and a smooth life."

Facing such enthusiastic people, Su Mingan thanked them one by one.

Little by little, his pupils were filled with warm light, and the loneliness, depression, and pain that were regarded as aliens during the day were gradually suppressed.

"Detective." Alice tilted her head: "It's my turn, guess what gift I prepared for you?"

"...Spring heart cake?" Su Mingan thought for a while.

Alice laughed: "Am I just a spring heart cake in your eyes?"

"No, because I have never eaten such a delicious thing..." Su Mingan shook his head: "Some people I met were really not good at cooking. But the spring heart cakes you made are delicious."

He guessed a few more answers, but Alice shook her head and said she was wrong.Just when Su Mingan couldn't figure it out,
Alice smiled slightly, and suddenly stretched out her hands——

"Crash-"

Su Mingan seemed to hear the sound of white doves flapping their wings.

He lowered his head, and seemed to see the snow-white wings, they were clustered together, as white as fine snow.Alice held them up and held them up to him.

It is morning flower.

——White morning flowers.

"Mr. Detective, I heard that the white morning flower means the birth of a miracle, and the blessings of the world will be etched in your soul forever." Alice said loudly: "I give you the white morning flower, I wish you— —Life is bright, healthy and eternal, life after life, forever. I wish you all the happiness in the world, everyone will give you kindness, and may goodness follow you forever.”

Su Mingan's vision trembled violently.

...Wait, it sounds familiar.

The words are so familiar, and the name of this familiar flower——

"Chaoyan..." Su Mingan said.

"Huh?" Alice tilted her head.

"No, Alice." Su Mingan took the flower, and the white petals were soft: "Sorry, I just called someone else's name. Thank you, Alice."

Chao Yan is an orphan girl from a small village in "Louis Moon Country", and Alice is a girl from "Girls Dream Project". They have an ancient oriental background and a steamy western background. They cannot be the same person.

"Alice is Alice." Alice held Su Mingan's hand: "Okay, Mr. Detective, let's cut the cake."

The two closed their eyes, made a wish, and blew out the candles.Sister Rita helps them cut the cake.The quality of sugar and salt in this era is not good, and the cake is not very tasty, but everyone eats it happily.

Wendell specially chose the part with strawberries for Su Mingan. Div didn't eat a few bites, and was hit on the face by Pat with a piece of cake, and the two began to wrestle.Sisters Rita and Josh hurried to break up the fight, while Mei Mi sat and watched with a smile.

The room was lively and lively, Su Mingan was biting the cake, and Alice sat beside him, smiling and watching the scene in the candlelight room.

Issie quietly sat beside Alice, and asked her in a low voice: "Alice, can I continue to teach you the violin in the future?"

"Forget it, I'm a violent woman, and I'll break the strings at every turn. I'd better continue to learn fighting from sister Josh." Alice said with a smile.

Izzy listened, a little sad.

He didn't know why Alice always pushed herself so hard, she basically practiced swordsmanship from morning till night.And the musical instruments and paintings that she really likes, she dare not touch, as if there is a scourge chasing her behind, asking her to become stronger quickly.

Many people said that she is a muscular girl, but she just listened plainly, and then continued to practice without giving herself any rest.

"Alice..." Izzy said.

"I think this is very good." Alice said calmly.

Her gaze stayed on Su Mingan: "I want to become stronger, and I want to protect Mr. Detective. This is my wish. It is difficult to have both. If you want to be strong, you have to give up your dream. I am not ashamed of being good at force."

After hearing this, Issie could only respect her thoughts.

The birthday party didn't end until nearly two o'clock in the morning.Su Mingan and Alice returned home.

Alice lay on the bed and covered herself with the quilt.At her request, Su Mingan read her a bedtime story for the first and last time.

Because——when she opened her eyes again, the detective would disappear, and then she would go through a long and lonely half a year, living alone, going to school alone, leaving school alone, cooking alone, until he appeared again.By then, she was 15, no longer the age of a child to ask for a bedtime story.

——Time is just a moment for him.

——For her, it was a long half a year.

Su Mingan sat by her bed, under the crackling of the fireplace, read her fairy tales:

"A long time ago, there was a beautiful Rapunzel. A tsunami suddenly occurred in her kingdom, and her kingdom and her friends were all submerged by the tsunami."

"As a survivor, she boarded a lighthouse and waited, hoping to find her friends. She used the lighthouse to guide the passing ships and asked the sailors to search for her friends along the way."

"She waited, waited, waited for a long, long time, her kingdom was still flooded, and her friends were nowhere to be heard. How she wished that there would be survivors among her friends, and that even one of her friends would come to her Right now, tell her, 'I survived'."

"Year after year, Rapunzel looked at the sky and said to herself: 'Please, don't leave me waiting alone, please take me with you, or come to me alive '."

"Until one day, a white dove flew from afar and told her—'Princess, don't wait any longer. Winter has come, and the winter snow has buried everything. Beneath the ice, all your friends are dead, and none will come back'."

"Such hopeless news hit Rapunzel's heart, and in the end, Rapunzel chose..."

After reading this, Su Mingan raised his head and found that Alice had fallen asleep.

"Good night, Alice." Su Mingan closed the book.He was just about to quit the game when he suddenly saw someone standing in front of the door.

It was a masked young man in a bard-style robe with bagpipes pinned to his waist.

"You are Xiao Hei?" Su Mingan remembered that Alice once met a bard named Xiao Hei.

"Detective, take Alice away as soon as possible." Xiao Hei said: "Keep her away from everything related to the gods. Otherwise, you will encounter catastrophe."

"Why do you say that?" Su Mingan asked.

Xiao Hei just repeated: "Please hurry up and take Alice away from here, the farther you go, the better."

Su Mingan suddenly heard a "ding dong". At this moment, he finally received the long-overdue main task of the game——

Su Mingan knew very early on that this was not just a cultivation game.

It has a main storyline.

As a child named by the Eye of the Old, Alice will face the coming disaster.

……

[Main task: Together with Alice, investigate the truth about the frequent occurrence of alien species in this world and kill the alien king. 】

[Mission Reward: Clear the game. 】

……

"Is a disaster about to happen?" Su Mingan's voice was very soft.

At this moment, there was only a feeling of "finally here" in his mind.

"Probably." Xiao Hei said.

Su Mingan nodded.

The warm days here are also over.

The heavy darkness is about to sweep towards the present world and the game at the same time, but he can only raise the light in his hand, with only a faint hope, and he will not retreat a step until he sees the bottom of the abyss.

"Thank you for your reminder, but not only me, but she will not choose to escape." Su Mingan said: "We are all people who cannot let tragedy happen."

Xiao Hei didn't speak, just turned and left silently.

Holding the white Chaoyan flowers in his arms, Su Mingan stood under the street lamp, looking up at the heavy snow.Snowflakes fell freely, brushing his black hair.

"Clang-clang-clang-"

Under the bell, he sighed:
"Very big snow."
