[Fifth Personality] Escape from the manor

I don't remember that I have shown my love to him, but judging from his words, I have, and that show of love failed to wait for the result.

……

Qiao Yan was taken aback by Joseph's obvious words of love.

Although she had thought about this possibility from Joseph's strange attitude towards her, when this moment actually came, Qiao Yan still found it hard to believe it.

In her heart, she didn't even have the shyness and joy of a girl after being shown her love under normal circumstances.Normally, even if you have no intention of admiring someone who shows love to you, you will always feel a little happy when you encounter something like this. After all... liking is a very beautiful feeling that can bring people happiness feel.

However, the current Qiao Yan didn't feel the happiness and shy joy brought by this kind of relationship at all in her heart, she only had some confused doubts and numbness.

like her?

Why?Why?Why do you like it?What attracted him to her?Appearance or something else?

Regulators like it, is it credible?

Will they feel this way too?

……

The hand clasping the back of Qiao Yan's neck moved forward to caress her face, and Joseph said:

"I thought you'd be happy..."

When he lowered his eyes to look at Qiao Yan, when the eyelashes were covered and half covered those faint blue eyes, it was especially moving.

He sighed slightly:

"Time always brings too many changes."

He lowered his head to kiss her again, and in his gradually hot breath, there was some emotion in his young voice:

"But I won't change."

Man dies, but time lasts; time lasts, and he is immortal.

……

The distant bells echoed in the manor, as if a drop of water fell into oil, instantly breaking the calm on the surface.

———It's three o'clock in the morning.

What happened that night was too psychedelic, and it was too unlike the style that this weird manor should have, which made Qiao Yan's dreamlike trance more obvious.The sudden sound of the bell awakens Qiao Yan who is about to fall into this dream, just like Cinderella in Andersen's fairy tales.

The bell after midnight breaks away all the beautiful illusions formed by magic, and presents the most real existence to everyone.

The handwriting written on the back of the paper on the notebook clearly came to mind:

[So far, I have won 6 games and lost 3 games. 】

【I will seize the last hope with the confidence that deceives myself. 】

【I will win and return to my world. 】

……

The corners of her eyes were still so dry that nothing could fall out, but Qiao Yan seemed to overlap with her past self, and she could understand the mood in which her past self wrote those words:

He is obviously desperate, but he deceives himself to keep calm and not fall into madness, in order to seek that ethereal hope...

"-jamaisl'espérance.【No hope】

-Quoi-l'éternité. [What?eternal】

Qiao Yan raised her face to look at Joseph, and slowly finished reading the poem. Her black eyes were stained with an inexplicable brilliance due to some emotion, and the corners of her lips were slightly curved, finally revealing a smile that belonged to joy. Smile:

"No, I'm happy, just too happy."

Emotions surged in her heart, and she didn't even know whether the words she said were true or lies.The throbbing of the heart at that moment may or may not be true.

The pair of blue eyes of the beautiful and delicate supervisor stared at Qiao Yan, like two clusters of blue flames burning in the bones.A few seconds later, he smiled and embraced her with a half sigh:

"There are always some things that don't change."

"I thought young people were romantic, maybe I should be more serious."

The music that sounded from nowhere became smaller and smaller until it disappeared, and the moonlight pouring down from the glass window above the head returned to its cold true color without the rendering of the music.

Qiao Yan looked at Joseph in front of her, and suddenly said:

"too late."

The bell struck three times just now, and it was indeed too late.

Joseph took her by the hand and walked towards a place in the hall where the moonlight did not shine:

"It is indeed too late."

A door appeared in front of them.

"You can stay and rest tonight..."

He took Qiao Yan's hand and kissed the back of her hand.There was a smile on his beautiful face, and those blue eyes were watching Qiao Yan faintly, as if waiting for her answer.

Qiao Yan couldn't help but look away a little bit:

"Forget it, it's too intrusive."

Qiao Yan didn't know what would happen if she stayed at the Odiris Manor on the side of the mirror, but her uneasiness was still faithfully expressed through her refusal.

Joseph sighed slightly, seemed a little regretful, but he was quite a gentleman and didn't bother too much, he opened the door in front of him.

The bright light appeared in an instant, and Qiao Yan subconsciously closed her eyes, and then through the door, she saw the place where they came from --- the room with many small rooms full of portraits on the wall.

Qiao Yan was a little surprised that it was so easy to refuse this time.She stepped into that door and still waited tensely for something.

She was waiting for Joseph's conditions, judging from previous contacts.She always has to pay something in exchange for this time's peace.

"At the stroke of midnight, the beautiful princess fled from the ball, leaving only the glass slipper on the steps."

Joseph told a fairy tale in a tone of exclamation, and then he looked at Qiao Yan:

"Cinderella left her glass slipper, so... Yan, what do you want to leave me?"

When he asked about this passage, Qiao Yan's tense mood relaxed a bit, because the condition finally appeared.The known is always better than the unknown.

Qiao Yan raised her hand and wanted to take off the hair ornament on her head, but Joseph stopped her with a smile:

"Wear it, it's beautiful. These are my gifts for you."

Meaning that something that belongs to her must be left behind?

But apart from this beautiful dress, the only thing that belongs to Qiao Yan here is the dusty dress she changed.Those clothes... Qiao Yan thinks that Joseph just wants to throw them away.

The gray clothes were replaced by gorgeous skirts, and the bell was ringing to leave, and there was one thing left behind...

At a certain moment, Qiao Yan felt that she really became Cinderella in a fairy tale.

……

In the end it was Joseph who suggested:

"Let's take a group photo."

He placed a camera on a tripod in front of Qiao Yan:

"Good times are always worth remembering."

Qiao Yan didn't refuse anymore, or she knew that she couldn't continue to refuse.

The white light on the camera flashed, and two black and white photos floated into Joseph's hands from the air.

He handed one of the photos to Qiao Yan:

"As a memorial to tonight."

On the black-and-white photo, a girl in a Chinese dress and a boy in the same dress are half-embracing. The picture is very harmonious, much like a couple in love.

……

After Qiao Yan accepted the photo, Joseph sent her out of the room to the mirror in the lobby on the first floor.While in the hallway, she met a strange person.

It was a woman with a pale complexion and slightly curly long brown hair. Her head was covered with a gray-black gauze, which looked a bit like a gypsy girl, but the doll was exposed at the joints of the arms that were not fully covered by the cloth. General traces.

She has a mature and beautiful appearance, but her expression reveals a bit of childlike innocence, and even her movements are a bit playful.She was biting the white textile thread in her mouth, playing with the textile thread as she walked.

As she passed by Qiao Yan, she let out a happy laugh, and then the textile thread in her mouth entangled towards Qiao Yan like a spider web.Qiao Yan dodged subconsciously, and the girl dressed as a gypsy was not angry, she just looked at Qiao Yan and smiled:

"Run, run! Prey in the net~"

"Miss Valletta."

A gorgeous French saber appeared in his left hand, cutting off all the textile threads.Joseph called out the girl's name in some trouble, trying to make her stop this prank.And Qiao Yan beside him was a little surprised: Is that the supervisor [Spider]?It looks too different from her in the game.

Valletta, whose name was called out by Joseph, didn't stay long. She continued to play with the spinning thread in her mouth, and then happily walked around the corner of the corridor and disappeared.

"Hee hee hee hee~ I can't run away, prey in the net~"

Her playful laughter faintly entered Qiao Yan's ears.

……

A mirror taller than one person reflects the silhouettes of two people.

The gorgeous dress of Qiao Yan in the mirror is the same as in reality, while Joseph in the mirror has lost its color and looks like an old photo in the game.

The moment she walked through the mirror, Qiao Yan subconsciously looked back: Joseph, who looked like a teenager, was smiling at her:

"Looking forward to the next meeting."

Qiao Yan completely disappeared in the mirror.

The teenager standing in front of the mirror chuckled softly, a black and white photo was spinning on the slightly sharp fingertips of his right hand.

The photo shows two men and women half embraced.

Dots of color bloomed from the photo, and in an instant, the girl in the photo turned into color.
