[British and American Drama] Mental Correction

[Chapter 10]

The interaction between Spencer Reed and the girl did not impress Claire. She realized that no matter how confused she was, this was not a good time to talk, so she decided to give up for the time being.

What really surprised her was that the voice sounded again: "This is a good boy." Claire felt it was absurd to say something inexplicable and then disappear again.

She is not a defensive person, otherwise she would not have encountered such a situation, even though in the following years due to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), she was unable to communicate with people normally, and her son was full of strangers in the early stage. Hostility, but once in contact, it is easy to let go of your guard.

And this unknown creature without a name still made it difficult for Claire to define: "What the hell are you?" She couldn't help expressing her confusion again, but the silence she thought didn't happen, the electronic voice was silent Then he said: "Everything happens for a reason, just like I chose you."

"In the future, you will know everything. I hope you will be able to see all this rationally."

Claire had an ominous premonition: "What you said includes what happened to me?"

"……include."

"What you...!" However, all her confusion was interrupted: "I can't tell you now, because you are not ready yet."

Claire couldn't help but sneer: "What are you going to do?"

"When you have no malice towards the world, I will do my best to grant you a wish, including going back to the past, before the crime or even when the crime happened. You can even choose to judge him by yourself."

The woman's eyes flickered, but she asked another question: "Are the worlds you let me go to the real world?"

"They are real, but they are derivative worlds that are independent of the real world. It's like you read a book, and you think it's just a book, but what is said in this book may be a derivative world that can be independently derived. world. And each derivative world is independent, and they even have a complete history, laws, and even a world view."

"Then why did Hannibal appear in my reality?"

"...every time you experience a world, this world will merge with the reality you are in." But this answer did not satisfy Claire. In fact, she even thought that this inexplicable system was full of lies, and it did not answer She confides the most important parts!Whether it's just not telling, or false whitewashing, Claire can't find any reason to trust it before hearing the absolute truth!

This feeling is simply terrible!

"The malice you have been emphasizing towards the world is ridiculous! In fact, I don't think I have any malice towards the world! If your request is just that, then I think I am qualified to go back to the past and change the past now! !!"

"No, you don't understand. It doesn't matter what you say, and what I say... The real future has not changed."

After a long silence, the system only uttered such vague words, and then disappeared again, as if it had never appeared before. And that night, Claire entered another dream.

In this world, Claire uses her own body.

She returned to her 17 years old.Young, beautiful, fresh, without lifeless eyes.

There is an extremely clear light in her gray pupils, and even the corners of her lips are naturally turned up - because she always smiles.In addition to the difference in life experience, the looks of Mr. and Mrs. Weiduo have changed slightly from reality. Oh, and her birthplace was unexpected. Everything seems to have returned to her 17-year-old.

This year, she hasn't been kidnapped, hasn't been caught by that centipede fanatic man and taken into a dark warehouse as a test object, and hasn't encountered such terrible things...

Even knowing it was a dream, Claire couldn't help crying at the person in the mirror.Probably only in the dream can she calmly reveal her embarrassment and pain for the first time.

In this year, Claire seemed to be following the path of her own life. She was admitted to a good university, made three or five suitable friends, and fell in love.

Yes, she made this dream a reality, no matter how cowardly and ridiculous it looks in the eyes of those who only know the truth, but Claire hypnotizes herself again and again, this is her "reality".Those disguises that seemed strong seemed unwilling to be put on again once they had a chance to peel off her skin.

But even so, some deep-seated unease is always lingering.Like a shadow in the abyss, peeking at the light through the narrow gap.

In the incomprehension of her relatives and friends, Clare always insisted on learning Western sword, Sanda and free fighting.In the first year of entering university, she was always found in the classroom with a bruised nose and a swollen face.At that time, she was an outlier in school, a weirdo.Young alumni have speculated about many scandals about her:

For example, she has a violent boyfriend who always gets beaten up and doesn't retaliate balabala~~

For example, her family is involved in gangsters and owes a lot of money to usury, so balabala~~

E.g……

And then, as Claire finally hoped, she began to fight back in these lessons, at least with fewer facial wounds.Her grades are excellent, and she never lacks courses, and because of this, she has met some friends in the same major. They may not be very close, but they can be regarded as chatting.as well as--

"Claire?" The man's voice was full of magnetism, and he asked in a low voice behind him uncertainly, which made the voice sound even deeper.

Claire turned her head, and Steven Toth stood behind her, his blue eyes seemed to have light, this kind of loving, wanting to be close to his eyes made Claire a little stunned for a while.She belatedly remembered that they were already lovers.

This vaguely feels like an RPG game. She "woke up" three years ago. Of course, you can think that Claire consciously experienced all the youth that she should have experienced but did not experience. Performed it again.And love is naturally in it.

Steven Toth was the first man to show affection to her without making Claire feel resistant.Because of this, she agreed to his pursuit.

The man smiled, and when he smiled, he wrinkled his nose unconsciously. Only at this time, this handsome and charming face looked childish and cute like a boy.He handed her the bag in his hand: "I guess you must have not had breakfast again, so I brought it to you when I came here. Let's go for a walk after class later." Steven's affirmative sentence didn't sound like it. He didn't care about Carlisle's response, but his slightly pursed lips still revealed his little uneasiness.

Claire nodded: "Okay." Her voice sounded cheerful and lively, and the carefree sunshine made her even feel a little sick.Yet Claire is obsessed with this sense of falsehood almost masochistically.

The smile on her face became even sweeter, and she reached out to hug Steven.Her height of 173 fit into Steven's arms.His shoulders were broad, and he smelled of male eau de toilette, which was very fresh and pleasant.

The friend behind him rolled his eyes helplessly: "Damn single dog is about to raise a torch!"

Steven raised his hand and smiled in surrender, then sat beside Claire with his arms around her.Even if he was being teased all the time, the man always had a good-natured smile, his eyebrows and eyes were frankly filled with happiness and joy, and he looked like a foolish boyfriend in love.And the background sound is the professor's lecture sound. Because of the elective courses, some people have already secretly started doing other things.

It all seemed like a dream, even more unreal.Claire rested her head on Steven's shoulder, thinking silently.

After that, no matter how Claire called the system, there was still no response.Amidst the melancholy and anxiety hidden under her cheerful exterior, after a few months, Steven proposed to meet Mr. Vidor.

This is a very normal thing, they have been dating for half a year.It shouldn't even be up to Steven to bring it up, she should have let Mr. Vidor know of his existence back in their relationship.

Facing the lover's expectant eyes, Claire smiled and nodded in agreement.Everything seems to be getting out of control.

She stood in the kitchen and looked at Steven who was chatting with Mr. Vido. The man's sculpted legs were crossed, and his fingers holding the wine glass were slender and graceful.There seemed to be an ocean in his blue eyes, forever reminiscent of the colorful shimmering surface of the sea in the warm sun.I don't know what Mr. Wei Duo said, he raised his head and laughed, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, full of hormonal smell.

They can really talk.Claire's real panic came when she realized she was smiling.Why is she here?Why weave such a dream for her...?

No no no, this is not a dream, this is a dream!

"Damn it," Claire cursed, but still no one responded.She didn't even want to imagine what expression she should use to face the [real] situation when she woke up.

Everyone hates this feeling of being played with and applauded, making her anxious and angry.At this time, Steven looked at her: "Hey, honey, why don't you come over here, you like fruit pudding~"

Claire came over, and she kissed Steven and Mr. Vido on the cheeks—in any case, she knew she couldn't give up this time, even if they were all lies, she had no possibility to ignore her desire .

one year later:

When their caps fly into the sky, it heralds the end of their college careers.Steele held her up high, then asked over Claire's laugh, "Want to go on a graduation trip?"

"what?"

"I said~!" The man leaned closer to Claire amidst the excited cheers of the people around him, and pressed his nose against her: "Want to have a graduation trip~?"

The corners of the lips are raised, and the smile is charming.

"Okay~" She heard her own voice, which was so light that it was about to float in the air.
