The player is playing like a god, but their cheat code is Aatrox.

But if she had a sister, why did her father never mention it?

Why does that girl never come to see her?

Why squat in the tree and watch her from afar instead of walking right up to her?

Rose's thoughts were in turmoil.

Just then, the bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

Rose snapped back to her senses instantly and, without a moment's hesitation, rushed straight out of the classroom.

Everyone in the classroom was astonished by her action.

"Hey, isn't that Cold Rose?"

"Hmm, it seems so..."

"It's really rare to see her in such a hurry."

"Yeah, she usually seems so relaxed and unhurried, doesn't she?"

"Maybe she's found a boyfriend."

"Oh? Who can handle this huge block of ice?"

The students were buzzing with discussion, but Rose was unaware of it.

Even if she knew, she wouldn't care.

She just wanted to get to the teaching building as quickly as possible, to that tree, and to find the girl she had just seen.

Roses grow very fast.

It only took her one minute to go from the fourth floor to the first floor.

Without hesitation, she went straight to the big tree.

But when she got to the tree, she circled around several times, but didn't see a single person.

It seems they've already left.

Rose thought to herself, feeling a little down.

Just then, a very strange feeling suddenly welled up in my heart.

Rose suddenly looked up

Not far away, the girl appeared out of nowhere and stood there quietly.

Rose's gaze met the other person's.

The girl smiled slightly, then turned and ran.

Rose instinctively reached out her hand: "Wait!"

She immediately chased after him.

The other person wasn't running slow, and Rose chased after that figure for quite a while before the two reached a secluded corner, where the girl finally stopped.

Rose also stopped and quickly walked to the girl's side.

"Phew—why are you running away?"

After a pause, Rose looked at the girl with a complicated expression, her tone carrying a hint of disbelief:

"Are you...my sister?"

The girl seemed surprised by what Rose said.

She thought for a moment, nodded, then shook her head.

Rose was bewildered. What did it mean by nodding and then shaking her head?

"What... exactly do you mean?"

The girl finally spoke, her voice clear and cool, with an ethereal quality:

"You and I... I guess you could call us sisters."

Is it?

What does it mean to count as?

Rose was even more confused: "Wait, I still don't understand, why did they say 'consider'?"

The girl glanced around and reached out to grab Rose.

Rose was stunned for a moment, but did not resist, letting the other person pull her along.

The girl led her to a bench where it was quiet and there was no one in sight.

"My name is Rose. Your prototype, your blank copy."

Rose's gaze froze.

"...What? What do you mean by my prototype? What do you mean by my blank copy?" Her mind was completely in chaos.

"Aren't you my older sister or younger sister?"

Rose nodded: "You could say that."

Rose felt a tangled mess stuck in her chest.

What on earth is she talking about? "What does 'considered' mean? Can even biological sisters be considered 'considered'?"

Rose remained calm.

"You and I share 99% of our genes, so it wouldn't be a problem to say we're sisters."

Rose was stunned.

This is not the kind of 99% that genetically points to a kinship.

The other person was saying that their genes were 99% similar to hers.

"...So, you're a super soldier too?"

The roses nodded.

Rose was silent for a moment before speaking again: "Then... why did you only show up now?"

She originally wanted to ask, "Then why did you come to find me?", but she changed her mind before she could finish the question.

"Because... I'm very curious."

When Yueji spoke, her voice remained as cold and clear as ever.

"Curious? Curious about what?" Rose asked, puzzled.

"I'm curious... what your life is like."

The rose stared at the wild rose and said something that the wild rose found hard to understand.

Rose paused for a moment.

"my life……"

She recalled her childhood alone, the quiet, colorless world before Cang Yu appeared.

Rose gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"Ha, what's so curious about my life? It's just... being alone."

After speaking, Rose looked away.

She thought the rose would ask further questions or show a sympathetic expression.

But Yueji just sat quietly beside her, her icy blue eyes gazing at the treetops swaying in the wind in the distance, saying nothing.

The silence lasted for a while. Rose spoke somewhat awkwardly:

"And you? Where did you... used to live?"

"laboratory."

Rose spoke in a calm tone, as if stating a fact that had nothing to do with her.

Rose's heart was suddenly clenched by something.

laboratory.

It's not a home, not a room, it's a laboratory.

but--

"Why? Why would you stay in a place like a laboratory?"

Rose initially thought the other person also had super genes and was in the lab to cooperate with research. But what Rose said next made her eyes widen in surprise.

Rose shook her head: "I don't know. I've been in the lab since the moment I opened my eyes."

How is that possible?

"You...were locked up in a lab at such a young age?"

The rose remained silent for a moment, then shook its head.

Before Rose could even catch her breath, Rose's words followed.

"I wasn't young anymore. According to them, I was ten years old at that time."

However, Rose keenly sensed that something was amiss.

What does "according to them" mean?

Why wouldn't I know my own age? Do I need someone else to tell me?

wrong

Rose said she had been in the laboratory since she opened her eyes.

Rose seemed to be thinking of something, her lips touched up and down, but she couldn't bring herself to speak.

Rose noticed her unusual behavior: "What's wrong?"

Rose looked at Rose's almost expressionless face, hesitated for a moment, and then asked:

"You...don't have any memories of your childhood?"

The rose remained silent for a moment, then shook its head.

"No. I have no memory of it. I have none of the childhood you mentioned." Her tone remained calm.

"That's why I'm curious, curious about your life. Because in a sense, you are me."

The rose stared straight at the wild rose.

"We have the same abilities, similar appearances, and a 99% genetic similarity. It's just that our lives are different."

Rose's face remained expressionless.

There was no anger, no resentment, no excitement, and no expectation.

It's like a robot without emotions.

Rose's unease grew stronger.

An ominous thought arose in my mind.

Could it be that they've brainwashed and controlled the rose bush?

Moreover... their emotions were erased.

Rose didn't notice the change in Rose's expression. It seemed that because she had no emotions, she was simply unable to discern these things.
