"Qin Chuhe" stared motionlessly at the silver pistol against his chin, revealing a sinister smile that would never have appeared on the real Qin Chuhe's face.

Cheng Mo's face turned cold, and he pulled the trigger without hesitation, and a sterling silver bullet decorated with intricate reliefs was accurately shot into "Qin Chuhe"'s jaw.

"Qin Chuhe" twisted his face for a second, and stretched out his gnarled fingers to grab Cheng Mo's throat, but Cheng Mo dodged.A few seconds later, the body of "Qin Chuhe" began to disintegrate from top to bottom, collapsing into a pool of viscous blood-colored liquid like suddenly encountering hot molten iron.

Inexplicably, Cheng Mo felt that the pool of liquid looked familiar, but before he approached, the pool of liquid seemed to have life, twisting and rushing from the bottom of his feet to the deeper narrow passage on the right.

It didn't succeed, and a gleaming dagger flew out of the darkness, nailing it firmly to the hard floor tiles.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Before Cheng Mo could see everything clearly, he was the first to fall into a long-lost embrace.The smell from Qin Chuhe enveloped him, and the warm palms rubbed his hair.Qin Chuhe checked him up and down, and suddenly embraced him again, pressing the tip of his nose against the back of his neck.

A deep voice sounded in his ears, with a sigh of relief:

"You're all right."

Cheng Mo patted him on the back, and the strange sense of disobedience disappeared. This time he knew it was the real Qin Chuhe.

"I met an impostor."

Qin Chuhe nodded and said: "Just now you let go suddenly, the space distortion happened at that moment, and I was separated in another space. After you see through the deception, release the space that imprisoned me, and I can return here."

"Did you also meet an impostor who looked like me in that space?"

"No." Qin Chuhe seemed to laugh silently, "There is no need for this. I can tell you apart at any time."

There was no hesitation in his voice, Cheng Mo couldn't help but paused, and said after a while: "That thing that pretends to be you..."

Qin Chuhe looked at the pool of liquid that was struggling in vain under the shackles of the dagger not far away, and said, "That's the liquid from the blood pool. This thing can copy the player's body intact, including the memory. By the way, how do you recognize... ..."

Qin Chuhe paused.He seemed to understand something, and gradually frowned.

Cheng Mo slowly pulled away from Qin Chuhe's embrace, seeing Qin Chuhe's suddenly ugly face, smiled faintly:

"You've realized something, haven't you? I'm asking that impostor "you" to kiss me once like we did for the first time. As far as I can remember, we've never kissed, so when that impostor didn't When I deny it, I judge that it is not you."

"But if he completely reproduced your memory, it means that in your memory, we did kiss." Cheng Mo stared into Qin Chuhe's eyes and asked word by word, "Can you tell me why I kissed you?" In my memory, there is nothing related to you? Is it the first time I met you?"

Qin Chuhe's silence seemed as long as a century.He pursed his lips tightly, and his deep eyes suddenly dimmed following Cheng Mo's question, like a flame extinguished by the wind.

Cheng Mo felt a sudden pain in his chest, and Lu Yifan's words couldn't get rid of in his mind, gradually overwhelming other fragile possibilities that secretly sprouted in his heart.

——Have you ever thought that Qin Chuhe may not exist in the real world at all, he is just a special NPC like Jacky in the game?

If this is the case, then the reason why Qin Chuhe did everything possible to not let him recover his memory can be figured out-they can't be together at all, even if they really love each other.Qin Chuhe can't go to the real world he lives in, and if he wants to see Qin Chuhe, he can only pay a price and enter one copy after another.Qin Chuhe's life is unlimited, but he is just an ordinary person, and cannot accompany him forever.

Cheng Mo suppressed the sharp pain in his chest, took a long time to take a deep breath, and broke the silence with pain and difficulty:

"Aren't you... unable to go to the outside world?"

Qin Chuhe's whole body was shaken, and the blood on his face faded away, and the bottomless black pupils were full of despair and pain that people couldn't face up to.

Lu Yifan's speculation turned out to be true.Cheng Mo closed his eyes forcefully, trying to calm down the hotness in his eye sockets, and pulled out a sour smile:

"It turns out that those dreams were real. I wanted to bring you so much into the world I lived in, and even dreamed of saying 'take you home'. But NPCs can't go to the real world, right?"

Qin Chuhe was shocked again, and it took a long time for his tense body to relax slowly.As if he had given up on something, he slowly raised his head to meet Cheng Mo's gaze, with a pained and relieved smile on his still pale face:

"You know it all."

He used affirmative sentences instead of interrogative sentences, and all the strength of Cheng Mo's body was drained by this sentence that he had fully recognized.

"We met in a random dungeon." Qin Chuhe leaned against the wall, his eyes shifted to a place far away, his voice suddenly became low and soft, "As you can see, I am a man who is similar to Jacky. The special NPC that can freely travel between different instances, and sometimes even pretend to be a player. This is one of my pleasures, and this fun made me meet you in that instance.”

"Because of my special ability, I can always appear in the dungeons you randomly enter, and we get to know each other once and for all. At that time, you didn't know that I was just an NPC, and you regarded me as a player who likes to challenge different dungeons just like you. And I didn't tell you this, at first I thought it was unnecessary, but later I didn't dare."

"We started to form a team together. You were originally a very strong high-level player, and I have many special abilities. The team formed by the two of us has almost never lost." Qin Chuhe lowered his head and smiled for some reason, " Gradually, I found that I could no longer move my eyes away from you, and one day, you suddenly told me that you liked me too. We just let the flow take its course and were together logically."

"When I'm with you, sometimes I gradually forget that I'm an NPC. Until one day, you discovered my secret."

"I chose to confess to you. Now that I think about it, that was the decision I regret the most." Qin Chuhe's eyes fell on Cheng Mo's face, he looked gentle and sad, "I meant to let you and me give up, but You gave me an unexpected answer."

"I chose to enter the game and make a wish to bring you to the real world. The price for this wish is very high. The price I pay is to lose all the memories related to the game." Cheng Mo took Qin Chuhe's words, and he finally understood The whole thing happened.

"That dungeon failed." Qin Chuhe said softly.

That's why he met Qin Chuhe as soon as he entered the game. The first encounter he thought was actually a continuation of countless encounters.That's why Qin Chuhe tried every means to prevent him from remembering the past, because once he knew, he would definitely make the same decision again without hesitation.

"If I hadn't entered this game, I would never be able to think of you. And you also said that you were not the one who let me enter the game. Then who else made me keep coming here?" Cheng Mo murmured.

There was a trace of pain in Qin Chuhe's eyes:

"It's you."

<<

"That's your insurance to prevent yourself from being unable to enter the game after losing your memory. You used the game's hosting and automatic matching mechanism to force yourself to enter the copy even if you lost your memory. That's why you never entered the game. After going through the initial setting interface of the game, you automatically become a teammate with me, and you don’t know what you mortgage every time you enter the instance. Because before you lost your memory, all these conditions were set by you.”

"When I knew about this, it was after seeing you who had lost your memory. The moment I saw you again, I realized that you never thought of giving up, even if you lost your memory." Qin Chuhe was sad Looking at him intently, "You left a possibility for yourself, waiting for the moment when you think of me like now, you believe that you will definitely make the same decision."

"Unfortunately, 'it' is the same as you think. This time, the fake me should also be the ghost of 'it', in order to let you discover the truth and lure you to mortgage your memory again. Once you decide to use memory again As a collateral, 'it' will definitely be able to take back this memory again. The more times the memory is taken back, the harder it is for you to think of me, and in the end, you will completely forget me."

"'It'?" Cheng Mo suddenly remembered the conversation between Qin Chuhe and Jacky that he overheard late at night. At that time, Qin Chuhe seemed to have mentioned this confusing pronoun.

- Don't use the privilege 'it' gives you to do superfluous things.

What does this 'it' refer to?At that time, it sounded like Qin Chuhe and Jacky were quite afraid of it.

"'It' is the scheduler and ruler here, the center of this game world, another name is 'Jupiter'. No one knows what it is, it has no form, and when it appears rarely, it is the will It is directly given to the NPC, and the NPC will pass the message on its behalf, and these NPCs generally appear in the instance as kings."

"For example, Odin?" Cheng Mo recalled the recurring dream in which the father of the gods driving an eight-legged horse pierced Qin Chuhe's heart with the eternal spear named Kungunir.

"Copy No.0, that is the first copy, one that can never be cracked."
