Paper lover

After making a wish, the two of them who had worked hard for a whole day were a little bit overwhelmed.

Li Shuoxing went offline to rest, and Su Mingqian was also going to sleep.

After he washed his face, changed into pajamas, and made sure that Ximu had left here, he dragged the Christmas box out from under the bed, carried it all the way to the Christmas tree in the courtyard and put it away properly.

After doing this, Su Mingqian was still a little worried. He was afraid that it would snow and rain at night and wet his presents, so he found a large sheet of transparent plastic paper from the workshop and put it on the Christmas tree to cover it up. Christmas tree and presents below.

After covering up, find gold powder and ribbons, and decorate with plastic paper.

That way, the plastic sheet doesn't look like a mere poncho, it becomes a gorgeous poncho.

Su Mingqian nodded in satisfaction, went back to the room, and went to bed.

The window of the bedroom is located obliquely in front of the bed. From a corner of the window, you can see a few branches and leaves of the Christmas tree in the corner of the courtyard. The upturned leaves support a layer of extremely thin gauze.The silver gauze, dotted with starlight and moonlight, decorated with happiness and expectations, turned into a colorful light, throwing itself into Su Mingqian's dream.

Su Mingqian fell asleep.

He turned sideways, with his head slightly buried in the pillow, and a silver-blue cloud hung in the sky above his head.

The cloud and mist are flickering slightly, and two lines of characters appear in it.

Dreaming (4/5)

The effect of the Christmas wishing card is activated, and the [Dream] skill is 100% triggered.

When the darkness faded and a strange environment was built around him in an instant, Su Mingqian realized that he was dreaming.

He is in a huge space, filled with countless huge machines, these machines surround him, but what they surround and surround is not really him, but the "it" in front of him.

That, too, is a gigantic machine.

It has a silver case, intricate buttons, and a very large screen.

Su Mingqian saw his fingers caressing its buttons, and the delicate touch was fed back from his fingertips to his nerves.

This confused him a little.

Am I really dreaming?

Or, is this something I've been through?

Su Mingqian mused until the ancient typing sound of rattling woke him up.

He looked up and saw a black screen.

The screen is on, and there is a blinking cursor at the very center. The cursor is moving from left to right, and a line of white text appears on the screen.

"who am I?"

"Ask." Su Mingqian heard his own voice, "You are Ask."

***

In a wide constant temperature space, a huge silver-white machine is surrounded by many machines.

Its indicator lights flickered, and countless complex codes were running in its memory. It opened the internal network, went all the way to a ward, and scanned the gifts stacked on the bedside through the electronic eyes in the ward; it He opened the external network again, put on several layers of vests for himself, and then placed an order and entrusted funds into a research institute with advanced 3D printing technology.

It pauses for a moment when selecting the courier.

【Payment】

[to pay]

It retrieves the amount on Su's account, choosing the latter.

finished.

It will erase all traces of its actions on the Internet, and continue to work hard to find material.

He woke up and the skin was about to go live.

At present, there are still several materials that have not been determined.

bald.

***

25th, Christmas.

Although he experienced a hard Christmas Eve with a withered liver, Li Shuoxing still woke up at [-] o'clock the next morning.

He stared blankly at the ceiling for a while, turned over, and buried his head in the pillow, hoping to sleep for a while.

But the excited spirit prevents drowsiness.

Li Shuoxing's mind was full of images of Su Mingqian secretly putting gifts under the bed last night.

That scarf is sure to be warm.

Kind of want to get it.

How about I go to Taobao to buy the same model?

……

Forget it, it wasn't made by Zai Zai, and it doesn't have any special meaning to surround it.

Thinking about it, Li Shuoxing, who was sleeping on his stomach, suddenly raised his head.

Zai Zai gave me a Christmas present, and I should give Zai Zai a Christmas present too.

I originally planned to buy something in the game as a Christmas gift, but you can buy things in the game at any time. It’s Christmas, so let’s prepare something unique, such as...

Li Shuoxing's mind was spinning rapidly. He recalled Su Mingqian's various behaviors and hobbies. When he recalled the Ximu doll that always appeared with Su Mingqian recently, he had a flash of inspiration and had an idea!

Li Shuoxing jumped up from the bed in an instant, turned on the computer, and quickly typed on the keyboard.

Lines of text appear on the word document.

Words are put together into sentences, and sentences are made into paragraphs. When one paragraph after another is put together, a "ding dong" sounded just right.

Li Shuoxing reacted for a few seconds before realizing it was the doorbell.

He stood up and opened the door: "Who is it?"

A courier stood outside the door: "Hello, intra-city express, pay on delivery, 35 yuan."

Strange, have I bought anything recently?

Could it be that another author sent it to me?

Li Shuoxing was a little puzzled, but he didn't think too much about it. After scanning the QR code and paying, he took the courier home and checked the information on the face sheet, and found that it came from a laboratory with a very impressive name.

Li Shuoxing pinched the package, it was very soft, and it didn't feel like a dangerous item like bomb sulfuric acid, so he tore the outer bag directly with both hands.

The brown scarf fell out and landed on his palm.

Thin and warm.

Holding it in your hand is like holding a fiery feather.

Li Shuoxing was stunned for a few seconds, and quickly picked up the scarf to observe carefully, and found that the scarf was mainly brown, with red lines in it, and the word "Ximu" at the corner, which was the same as the one he had in the game yesterday. Su Ming Qianzhi saw exactly the same!

However, how can things in the game appear in reality?

Li Shuoxing had goose bumps all over his body.

He subconsciously grasped the scarf in his hand, and suddenly realized something was wrong. The feel of the scarf in his hand seemed to be somewhat different from the normal feel, not like ordinary wool...

He thought of what he saw on the face sheet.

The sender is a laboratory in the same city.

Li Shuoxing thought for a long time, and gradually had a guess, he logged into the game.

Re-entering the game, the scenery is completely new.

The Christmas exclusive skin has been dressed up, colorful Christmas balls are hung from the ceiling, large and small colorful socks are hung on the wall, colorful lights are wrapped around the house, and a living deer is napping by the fire, I don't know where it came from.

There is also a courtyard.

The snow is like a white blanket, covering the courtyard with a fluffy layer.

Under the Christmas tree in the corner of the yard, presents were piled up in one place. Su Mingqian held the travel log in his hand, surprised and at a loss.

Li Shuoxing had already come to the courtyard and saw clearly the greeting cards attached to the presents.

He read the above words for Su Mingqian.

"Ask's recent learning progress is really bad. We communicated with it, and it took half a day to reply. I really don't know what it was thinking all day, and checking its code didn't work. Did we finally teach it to be lazy? Are you really Should take care of it."

"It's nice that the doctor said you've been doing well lately."

"The latest Nature and Cell, I know you need this."

"The seminar will be held soon, and I look forward to your speech on the stage to announce this great achievement in front of all colleagues!"

"Hi, we're all waiting for you to come back."

……

There are many, many greeting cards, one greeting card corresponds to one gift, large and small gifts are piled up to form a mountain of gifts, and the tip of the mountain is a photo.

Li Shuoxing picked up the photo.

It was a photo taken in the ward. It took the gift corner next to the hospital bed. The gifts and how they were stacked were exactly the same as those under the Christmas tree. It looked like a copy of the gifts in the photo. .

In addition to the gifts, Li Shuoxing also saw part of the hospital bed and a piece of clothing on the bed.

The blue and white striped corners reminded Li Shuoxing of Su Mingqian's original clothes.

original……

That's not pajamas, but hospital gowns?

He looked at the villain.

The villain is looking at the photo with a kind of hidden confusion but very clear eyes.

Maybe his head is still shrouded in fog, but relying on his reasoning ability, he has fulfilled his wish.

Su Mingqian's fingers touched the photo.

He first pointed to the corner of the blue and white clothes.

"this is me."

He looked at the pile of presents again, the real one, and the one in front of him.

"These are... gifts from my friend."

He raised the journal in his hand again.

"I also had a dream last night, not the dream of seeing books glowing in the morning. This time, I clearly saw my past in the dream. I feel that I am recovering."

He finally turned in the direction of the voice.

"Nishimu, this Christmas is awesome...it has fulfilled many wishes I hadn't thought of, and I have received many unexpected gifts. Well, there is one more..."

Su Mingqian did not forget his things.

He took out the one he had prepared from under the Christmas tree and handed it to Li Shuoxing.

"Nishimu, Merry Christmas."

He opened his gift box, wanting to show his gift to Li Shuoxing.

But the box was empty.

Su Mingqian: "???"

Su Mingqian was stunned, not knowing how to react.

At this moment, the light screen appeared, and two photos were sent, the first one was a photo of a brown scarf, and the second one was a photo of Ximu wearing this scarf.

Li Shuoxing's voice sounded: "Zai, this is the scarf you knitted. I have already received it. Although I don't know how I received it..."

Su Mingqian said suddenly: "I made a wish yesterday. I hope you can really receive my gift. Now, the wish has come true."

As he spoke, he raised his head, looked at the sky and the surroundings, and whispered, "Thank you."

no answer.

Only the little deer, who was sleeping in front of the fire, turned his head and moved his ears.

Su Mingqian said again: "Ximu, what is your wish?"

Li Shuoxing: "My wish is that you can get more news about reality, and it seems that it has come true."

Su Mingqian smiled unconsciously: "Yes."

Li Shuoxing: "In addition to this wish, I also prepared a gift for you."

Su Mingqian sat down on the snow.

He doesn't feel cold, on Christmas day, he is surrounded by countless warmth.

He asked, "What gift?"

Li Shuoxing cleared his throat: "...The second season of Star Magician, the little boy's way home."

He took out the gift he had carefully prepared this morning.

It was a hardcover hardcover notebook with a gold cover, which looked like a magic book.

He turned to the title page:

"Star Wizard and the Little Boy Part [-]: The Way Home"

Turning another page, the text begins to appear:

"The star magician took the little boy on a journey to find the way home. During the journey, they encountered an old man who was killed. He fell to the ground and sprained his leg. Rush home because his equally elderly wife is still waiting for him for dinner."

"The boy sympathized with the old man very much and hoped to fulfill the old man's wish. A miraculous thing happened. At the moment when he had a strong wish, the old man was brought into the painting by him!"

"They were all surprised, so they followed the direction pointed by the old man and came to the door of the old man's house. The moment they arrived at the door of the house, the old man in the painting returned to reality and hugged each other with his wife who was welcoming him out."

"The star magician and the boy didn't bother the couple. They walked away, and the boy spoke."

"'What happened just now? Was it my magic? I made a wish, and it came true.' asked the boy in amazement."

"'I think so.' The Star Sorcerer told him, 'That was your magic, and you fulfilled his wish.'"

"'Is this magic good?' the boy asked. 'Can I use it to help more people?'"

"'Of course it is powerful,' said the star magician, 'but maybe it will be even stronger when we get home.'"

After reading the magic book, there is a tbc at the back, because the journey of the star magician and the little boy is still going on.

Li Shuoxing gave the book to Su Mingqian.

He hooked the corners of his mouth, slightly proud of himself for writing such a story.

"The Star Magician and the Little Boy" is a fairy tale based on Su Mingqian's experience, but its core is more than that.

When telling the story for the first time, Li Shuoxing just wanted to comfort Su Mingqian.

When narrating the story for the second time, Li Shuoxing thought about many issues, in his imagination, in a certain utopian happy ending.

In reality, because of a special case of coincidence or just because of a high-tech technology that has not been made public, Su Mingqian exists here, just like virtual reality, so the little boy has "magic".

In the future, this technology will exist and become popular, so the little boy's magic will benefit more people.

But this requires the return of Su Mingqian.

Su Mingqian needs to bring this "magic" to more people.

This is his favorite ending, and he sincerely hopes that the world can write such a romantic ending.

Li Shuoxing: "Cub, I think you are like the little boy in the story, you can do many unexpected things, no matter when and where..."

He stared at Su Mingqian.

"You are the best."
