Hollow Knight: Hallownest

"The 135th day of becoming a maintenance worker: I really don't understand why those bugs at the crossroads have such a special liking for road signs. They just stand there to guide them, exposed to the wind and rain every day without any Geo to earn. It's so miserable that they are still damaged by those bugs. Even the road signs are crushed. It's really pitiful. I hope those bugs that destroy road signs can become road signs in their next life so that I can repair them!"

"The 140th day as a maintenance worker: Oh my god, it's only been a short time, why is the road sign at the crossroads broken again?! Damn caterpillar, don't let me catch you destroying the road sign, otherwise I will use my wrench to remove your sore leg and use it as a road pole!"

"The 151st day as a maintenance worker: I finally caught the bug that destroyed the road sign! Hehe, after my earnest advice, he finally realized his mistake. As for why I didn't use a wrench to fix him... it must be because I didn't have the heart to hurt his powerful muscles!"

"The 152nd day as a maintenance worker: I'm in so much pain, I'm taking a day off."

"The 178th day of becoming a maintenance worker: The maintenance worker's ball is finally about to begin! Although we are scattered in various places, the hearts of maintenance workers are always together! I haven't had a serious talk with other bugs for a long time. If I have to have one, it must be Lalai! Wait for me, Lalai!"

"The 180th day as a maintenance worker: I repaired several road signs today. They said my job was useless, tiring and without much Geo. They could recognize the road even without road signs... I'm so tired, but I won't be discouraged! They are all wrong. There will always be new bugs that need guidance, right?"

"The 183rd day as a maintenance worker: fix signs, mend lamp posts, or let them break! I'm the best repairman... In five days the dance will start, so exciting!"

"The 184th day as a maintenance worker: I'm so tired, I'll take a day off."

"The 185th day as a maintenance worker: I'm so tired, I'm going to take a day off."

"The 185th day as a maintenance worker: I'm so tired, so I'll (cross it out) Mai Mingting, Mai Mingting, how can you let yourself fall! Those new bugs still need the road signs in your hand to provide guidance!"

"The 186th day as a maintenance worker: I'm so tired, I'm going to take a day off."

"The 187th day of becoming a maintenance worker: the dance starts tomorrow! I have to take good care of myself, Lalai, and this time I will definitely muster up the courage to express my feelings to you!"

"The 188th day of becoming a maintenance worker: Today should be a good day. I met many maintenance worker friends at the dance who I haven't seen for a long time. They talked to me a lot. Due to different jurisdictions, I have always been very curious about places outside the crossroads. I heard that the scenery over there is very good. I really want to switch with them.

Although I have been talking to them for a long time, my attention is not really on them. I am sorry, but you should know, Lale, that I will only dance with you. I am waiting for you. "

"The 189th day as a maintenance worker: Lalai, I heard from your colleagues that you are still on your way, right? Please, please don't catch up. The people at the crossroads are all crazy! So are my fellow maintenance workers! They are no longer taking out wrenches to repair road signs... God, please bless Lalai to hear my reminder!"

"The 190th day as a maintenance worker: Today, many sentries wearing different uniforms came to the crossroads. The riot was brought under control. Fortunately, those crazy big guys didn't smash my door, otherwise who would repair the road signs at the crossroads in the future. Lalai, I hope you are safe."

"The 193rd day of being a maintenance bug: Today I was so hungry that I had to go out to look for food, but fortunately those crazy residents were gone. Perhaps they were taken away by the sentinels. I exchanged some food from the surviving residents. It was because of them that I knew that the source of the riot was actually Dirtmouth above.

I heard that a lot of insects died in the past few days, and they were dragged to the cemetery above by the sentinels. Lalai, stay away from here. I hope we will meet again."

"The 194th day of becoming a maintenance worker: My heart is always beating restlessly, Lale, can you hear my prayers?"

"Day 198 of being a maintenance worker: Oh my god, maybe I shouldn't have gone to that place. I've never seen a body more miserable than a broken road sign. I don't think I'll be able to sleep for a long time.

But who would have thought that I would bring back a poor child because of this. Seeing such a scene at such a young age must have left a deep psychological trauma. "

“The 220th day as a maintenance worker: These days are definitely the most idle time for me. Although I know it’s not nice to say this, those bugs that destroyed the road signs may have died in the riot. If possible, it doesn’t matter if I can repair them a little more.

By the way, the child I picked up has recovered a lot, but maybe because the shock was too great, he even forgot his own name.

These days he has been following me around to check all the road signs at the intersection. What surprises me is that he is particularly interested in this somewhat boring job! Maybe I should call him a 'little repairman'? "

"The 232nd day of being a maintenance worker: Some infected residents have been sent back by the sentinels. I heard that the teacher found a way to temporarily suppress the madness. It's amazing...

When the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. When road signs fall down, short people are needed to support them. Maintenance workers are also very important!

That kid is a quick learner. He actually figured out how to fix road signs using only the tools in my house. But he's a little timid and doesn't dare to do anything. He always needs me to accompany him."

"The 240th day of becoming a maintenance worker: I took the child up and down the crossroads for a long time. He knew the location of every road sign without me telling him, especially the one next to the elevator shaft. It seemed that the child was particularly fond of it.

I think this is a stage that every maintenance worker will go through, finding the signposts in reality, and then finding the signposts in the heart.

Road signs are important to every insect, at least for maintenance workers, they are an indispensable part of life. "

"The 243rd day of being a maintenance worker: Oh my god, this is the first time I see the king in person! I am so lucky! To see the brightest signpost in this land under my feet! I feel like everything is going to be fine!"

......

"The 257th day as a maintenance worker: The footsteps on the crossroads began to increase again. The doors and windows that were closed before were opened, just like the street scene before the dance that day. Maybe I should have expressed my feelings earlier.

Do you remember the first time we met? I actually spilled the wine on you, whom I fell in love with at first sight. I was so scared, but you didn’t get angry. Instead, you smiled and extended your hand to me.

That was the first time I had a dance partner...

Lalai, I like you, will you respond to me?

I think you have, because when I first met the boy he was wearing that wine-stained piece of clothing which I shall never forget.

You know, Lale, a mechanic can't lose his road sign, but I've lost you.

This diary should belong to a maintenance worker."

......

"First day as a repairman: Life is so good. Fixing signs, patching lamp posts, I say leave them broken! I'm the best repairman ever!

My name is Lalai, and starting today, I am the new repairman at Crossroads!"
