lost narrative poem

Chapter 856
The room is Japanese style, with mats on the floor, and the space is surrounded by sash windows and fusuma.

It was originally a beautiful and elegant theme, but at this moment, it was ruined by messy comic books, game consoles, light novel readers, figures, posters, etc., etc., by these too homey things All the classic beauty.

Coupled with that expensive-looking desktop computer, the sci-fi water-cooled chassis is like an unreasonable sledgehammer, making people think about how beautiful they are before stepping into this room. How depressing it was after the room.

"His Royal Highness, Zi Yakumo is gone?"

Opening the door directly, Bayi Yonglin saw the beautiful girl in the room sitting in front of the computer desk, playing games as usual, her expression was gentle and calm, as if her mood hadn't been affected much look -

It's still elegant and gorgeous, and it's unspeakably expensive. One person brought back the bad temperament of the messy house girl's room.

"Oh, Zi Yakumo left just now." Penglai Shanhuiya replied casually.

"..."

"..."

Yayi Yonglin pondered for a while, but in the end she didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "What Yakumozi said, did you agree, Your Highness the Princess?"

"What? Is Yonglin trying to stop the concubine?" Penglai Shan Huiye turned her head with interest, and asked with a chuckle. Her expression seemed natural, and her crooked eyes were only full of expectations and Smiling, without any gestures of coddling or concealing.

Graceful, unhurried, of course, elegant and graceful.

"No, your highness, you can do it if you want." Yayi Yonglin shook her head and said calmly, "I just want to tell you, it's best not to go with the idea of ​​joining in the fun."

"If you don't want to join in the fun, what is this concubine doing?" Penglai Shan Huiye played with her lock of hair, and said flatly, "Could it be that Yonglin, you still want to make this concubine serious?"

She did agree to Yakumo Zi, she hardly thought about it, but she was mainly holding on to the previous dissatisfaction and fun ideas, and was just going to make up for that guy, so as not to find out that the damage was not enough when the team started.

It was just to have fun, not to really have any thoughts, at most it was just getting angry with that guy before, and now it's just wanting to take revenge.

Her Royal Highness thinks so, that's all.

"..."

"..."

There was a noticeable silence.

Bayi Yonglin looked at her princess, but didn't say anything.

"Eh? No, Yonglin, what do you think? Do you really want to make this concubine serious?"

Penglaishan Huiye was amazed at this moment, she stared at Yayi Yonglin suspiciously, looked up and down carefully, and wondered if Yakumozi, the bad woman, immediately turned around and turned into Yonglin after she left. Lin's appearance, using her defenselessness to trick herself.

But it seems that this is not the case, it is indeed Yayi Yonglin herself.

"I don't want you to be serious, Your Highness, but I hope that you don't take part in this kind of thing because you are not serious..." The Sage of the Moon stared at Mount Penglai, "This is different after all. of……"

"What, it turned out to be going around in circles and changing ways to warn the concubine."

The princess seemed to be relieved, and nodded in agreement. It turned out that Yayi Yonglin was talking ironically, so she could understand it.

The Sage of the Moon sighed lightly, but didn't say anything more.

Be that as it may, boredom is the worst thing for permanent residents.People in Penglai can't die if they want to. If there is no accident, in the endless future, when human beings are extinct, all monsters are dead, and even the earth and the moon are destroyed——

Maybe there are really only a few of them who want to spend endless days and nights in the cold and dark universe, taking care of each other and getting through.

It’s okay now, at least in Yayi Yonglin’s expectation, it’s definitely much better than Penglai Shanhui’s going to find Fujiwara’s red pot soup every now and then. The boring daily life is indeed terrible. Yes, but that interest is still...

……

……

"Ms. Hiratsuka...well, I feel like he's an elder, so I won't invite you today, and invite you with your parents later."

Staying in the living room and biting the pen holder, Xia Ran checked the list one by one, and finally confirmed that it was correct. He stretched, then picked up the list and handed it to the side.

The puppet maid who did not know when she appeared by the side had already reached out to take the list, she lowered her head and quickly checked it, her long eyelashes fluttered a few times, and asked in a calm tone: "Master, what's the list?" Is that so?"

"that is it."

The magician nodded. He originally wanted to invite all his parents, but after thinking about it, he felt that it would be better to invite another day. Otherwise, the atmosphere of the banquet would probably become very formal, as if someone had The atmosphere of the elders' wine table is a bit subtle.

"Well, I'll follow up..."

Charlotte said lightly.

"Then please..."

Xia Ran was very relieved about the head maid. He looked at the exquisite girl doll and pondered for a while: "By the way, Charlotte, are you ready to upgrade to version 2.0?"

"Master, I want to remind you that I am already version 5.0." Charlotte replied solemnly without even moving her eyelashes. She was not when she was first created, but now like this.

It was Xia Ran's adjustments and optimizations over and over again, adding up various major upgrades and minor upgrades, and finally got the current head maid.

"Ahem, don't worry about the details, anyway, I'll give you another upgrade tonight." Xia Ran coughed softly, his vision is completely different now, so when he looked at Charlotte, he suddenly felt that his only skill was waiting for him. There is still room for improvement.

Well, since it is an alchemy doll, it can actually be classified as a robot in a broad sense, so do you want to upgrade it according to the level of Emperor Geta?

But won't this be too petty and petty?Xia Ran thought of this, and the thoughts in her mind turned rapidly, and in an instant, she had already listed countless upgrade plans specially tailored for the head maid.

"Okay, Master..." Charlotte nodded, without any special expression, as if she didn't have much feeling about this matter, and she just followed the master's idea.

"Don't be sullen, at least act happy?"

The magician said, he blinked, and suddenly felt enlightened: "Or you don't want to live as an alchemy figure anymore? This is also okay, I will give you the blessing from the true god, and you will have a real soul..."

"..."

"..."

"It's not this, I don't have any entanglements with this, Master." Glancing at her master, Charlotte couldn't help but sigh.

Because of her background, she would not feel that she was just a puppet, and that there was no such thing as obsession.

"Then why are you sullen, do you have any opinion on me?" the magician said dissatisfied.

"..."

"..."

"Master, I think..." Charlotte raised her eyebrows. She thought for a while, and she didn't plan to go around in circles anymore. She simply said, "I think you are playing stupid."

"What's pretending to be stupid?" Xia Ran asked pretending to be stupid.

Charlotte didn't even want to talk to him anymore, but out of her duties as a maid, she still thought about it and said, "Master, you want to draw a line with other girls, I'm afraid it won't be that easy, You better be mentally prepared."

"What do you mean by clearing the boundaries? Am I that kind of person?" The magician sighed, "It's not the same thing at all, okay? They think too much, but they don't listen to my explanation. I'll talk to them tomorrow. Just say it."

He still held an optimistic attitude and felt that this misunderstanding could be resolved.

"In their eyes, it's a signal to draw a clear line. It's the reason not to worry about scarcity but to worry about inequality. Master, you should be very clear. If only Ms. Yukinoshita has something, it's tantamount to telling them that they won't have it. "The head maid said seriously.

"...Well, I know it's not about being few but about being uneven, but this is a marriage contract, so everyone can't have a share, right?"

The magician twitched his lips.

"About this, Master, can I ask why you suddenly thought of getting engaged?" Charlotte asked seriously, "According to your personality, it shouldn't be because you think "marriage is the grave of love" or "if you are married will be bound by the law?" "

"Everyone is mortal, the grave itself is not the point, the point is who is buried with him..."

Xia Ran thought for a while, then nodded very positively.

As he spoke, he chuckled, probably remembering the situation at that time, that extremely cute and troublesome person, who was both too fragile and frighteningly strong, upright and cunning, an annoying part of himself I also like all of them.

He had the confidence to continue like that, and felt comfortable maintaining those appropriate distances, but on that day, he still made a promise to exchange lives with each other.

"Then have you ever considered the thoughts of those who died without a place to bury?" The chief maid's cold voice sounded, pulling Xia Ran back from the memory of her thoughts to the disturbing reality.

"What is there to die without a burial place...don't say it is so terrible."

The corner of his mouth twitched a few times, Xia Ran turned his head to look outside the living room, the midsummer sun shone viciously from the porch and windows, and the bursts of cicadas made people upset, and at this moment his heart was also irritable There was an impulse.

——Having said that, I’m actually a little nervous.

—Perhaps... it would be better to reverse the time axis?
Silently looking at the slightly irritable teenager, Charlotte pursed her lips, and suddenly couldn't bear it anymore. Maybe the Master was already mentally prepared, but now she was upset again, but she just Just wanted to remind you.

After a moment of silence, the head maid said softly, "Master, are you ready to face the last supper?"

"……Ready."

The magician took a deep breath and nodded heavily, but his eyes were a little erratic.

"I'll explain it to them."

"Do you think they can listen and explain? Are you sure it's not adding fuel to the fire?"

"If it really doesn't work, let them vent it..." Xia Ran's expression was slightly weird, and he smiled bitterly, "Isn't Zi shaking people around, if it really doesn't work, let them vent that It's okay to be angry."

Charlotte nodded silently, so it's not that she doesn't know, but she's just pretending to be stupid?

……

……

Time flies by.

Today's Gensokyo has been shrouded in a subtle atmosphere since early in the morning. Although a banquet was organized again on the large open area of ​​Fengshen Lake in front of Moriya Shrine on the top of Youkai Mountain, but But there is no joyful atmosphere.

There is only a dull and weird air, and its source is not unique, but the intertwined and diffuse low pressure envelopes the entire venue.

The entire Monster Mountain was silent, and even the human world far away under the villa was affected. I don’t know how many people feel depressed for no reason. Although they don’t know what happened, they are cautious and dare not Make too much noise.

The whole village fell silent. People talked or did something in a low voice as much as possible, and they always felt that if the sound of breathing was too loud, it would usher in a catastrophe.

As for the banquet scene, even a group of little guys including Qi Lunuo didn't dare to make a fuss.

The three Sao Ling sisters who were invited were trembling, the forced smiles on their faces were uglier than crying, and the music they played did not feel cheerful at all, but was completely out of tune, dragging ghostly, harsh It's ugly, it's like mourning and joy.

If they had known that this banquet was so dangerous, they would not have come.

"Guys, please come here with me..." Charlotte was not affected at all, maybe she was the calmest one, so she can still do her own job well now, for example, the reception is late There are also a few people in An Yilun.

It can't be said that they came late, they were actually very face-saving, whether it was for the sake of classmates and friends, or for the sake of authority in the circle, they had rushed over early in the morning.

However, today's banquet is different from the past. Whether it was prepared in the first place, or came to laugh at the first time because it was aware of the wind, that is, to watch the fun, they all came early to occupy their seats. Li Lingmeng, those eating activists——

So early in the morning, the place was already full.

"Am I dreaming?"

An Yilun also rubbed his eyes, looked at the surrounding environment, the green mountains and green waters, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, and looked back suspiciously, feeling as if he was dreaming in a fairyland.

The moment they entered the shrine, they walked out of the shrine again, and arrived at a paradise-like world as if they had passed through a mirror. Straight down.

There was an open-air banquet on the open ground, just like viewing cherry blossoms, and many people sat silently in their seats.

At this moment, An Yilun's mind went blank. He looked back subconsciously, and found that his senior sister and his childhood sweetheart also looked blank, like sleepwalking patients. Then he confirmed that he was not hallucinating.

But, but...

why?What is Xia Ran's background?And this banquet... Could this be the truth of the world?

At this moment, an emoticon package inexplicably appeared in his mind - I don't pretend anymore, I have a showdown.jpg
Because of Charlotte's careful care, none of them were affected by the terrifying atmosphere that seemed to be real. They just followed the head maid to a certain seat in a daze, and were arranged to sit down, and then Because of the wings and horns of some girls around him, he fell into a deeper sluggishness.

"Everyone is here, Master."

Charlotte compared the list and confirmed that there were no omissions. Even the most insignificant Kato-san had already arrived at the scene, so she decisively notified the owner.

"This, that's it..."

Xia Ran, who stayed in the kitchen and couldn't go out, twitched the corners of her mouth, hesitated, and said nothing.

"Are you going out now?" Charlotte asked indifferently. She felt that this kind of thing could not be delayed, and it was better to face it earlier.

"I expected this scene, but I didn't expect it to be this bad... The atmosphere is not right." The magician whispered, and peeked out of the kitchen. The dull and weird air made him feel that he was not well.

He didn't read the future, because he probably already knew what Zi and the others were going to do.

Secondly, it was because he felt that the scene might be too tragic, and he really didn't dare to look at it... How many equal parts of the future is this?
"That, Reimu..."

After thinking about it, he turned his head and looked at the red and white miko who was walking around in the kitchen, who couldn't help Yakumolan and Izaya Sakuya at all, and who was already eating, with sincere and sincere eyes. And sincerely asked——

"As Hakurei Miko, you have the obligation to prevent monsters from attacking humans, right?"

"You are not human." The red and white witch bit off a steaming meatball, narrowed her eyes to show a happy expression, and at the same time gave a casual answer of rejection.
