"elder sister... "
Stasha tried calling out again. The perception of this change was so strong that she could no longer ignore it as an illusion.
"I'm here."
Luo Ling stretched out his hand, followed the source of the sound, and habitually wanted to touch Stasha's hair.
It was just that because she was sitting in a wheelchair and Stasha was not short, even if she stretched out her hand she could only barely touch Stasha's bangs. Luo Ling shrank back in embarrassment.
I never thought that one day she wouldn't be able to touch other people's hair.
At this moment, Stasha squatted down on her own initiative, moving slightly closer to Luo Ling, and her light breath fanned on Luo Ling's face.
Although she didn't say anything, Stasha's meaning was obvious.
Luo Ling was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and reached out again to gently touch Stasha's hair.
Stasha just looked at her sister at this moment, looked at her smile, opened her mouth slightly, wanted to say something, but finally closed her mouth and smiled.
That's right, it was her elder sister... the elder sister she was most familiar with.
Until this moment, Stasha finally realized what the strong sense of disharmony she had felt before was, and what the change that had returned now was...
Although my sister was gentle and amiable as always, she seemed like an empty shell. Her emotions were sincere, yet seemed simulated in some way, with an inexplicable falsehood.
Only at this moment did Stasha finally and truly feel the presence of her sister.
Although there seems to be some differences between her and the sister in my memory, but... it doesn't matter. Maybe my sister has just grown up a little. People grow up and change as they grow up. My sister is definitely no exception.
"Let's go home." Luo Ling said softly.
She could sense Stasha's emotional changes and roughly guessed something.
Even though Luo Ling used entirely Alyssa's memories, emotions, and body to construct the current Saint Alyssa, no matter how perfect the simulation is, it is still different from the real Alyssa.
Human emotions are complex, changeable, and unpredictable... Even puppets can never simulate real emotions.
This is why, although Luo Ling could use Puppet Song to "resurrect" his sister in this way, he never did it.
Because Luo Ling knew very well that her sister who appeared in this way was just deceiving herself.
And now, Luo Ling is deceiving Stasha.
This sister who looks similar to her.
"Um... "
Stasha nodded, walked behind Luo Ling, pushed the wheelchair, and even her steps became much lighter.
She did not feel that her suddenly luxurious life was so wonderful. To her, it was not even as good as the night when she saw her sister come back alive.
"Sister, do you remember?" Stasha took the initiative to speak, "When I was younger, you had to work until very late every day before you could come home to be with me. The situation at that time... was just like now."
"Of course I remember."
Luo Ling nodded slightly. She possessed all of Alyssa's memories, so of course she knew all about these things clearly.
Stasha was only seven or eight years old at the time, and Alyssa was expelled from the church because of some things. She could only work as a cook for a wealthy family every day to earn a meager living expenses.
The person who hired Alyssa was not a prominent aristocrat or a wealthy capitalist, but just an ordinary middle-class family in Victoria, so the salary she received could only provide enough food and clothing for the sisters.
Unfortunately, this kind-hearted family later went bankrupt, and Alyssa lost her job and had to take care of her younger sister, gradually falling to the point of living in the slums in poverty.
After that, it’s a story everyone already knows.
At least... before Alyssa's change, these difficult days were already the warmest memories that Stasha cherishes the most. No matter how hard it was, she was happy to see her sister coming home on time every day.
"We loved going out at night."
Stasha said excitedly, "It's near Mount Gauldin. At night, there are fireflies flashing in the woods, and there are stars in the sky..."
Having said this, Stasha suddenly choked.
At this moment, she realized that her sister... would never be able to see such a beautiful scenery again.
"Sister, sister, I'm sorry..."
Stasha kept saying this, her voice a little flustered.
"It's beautiful. I remember it all." Luo Ling smiled and continued, "The bright and beautiful starry sky and the twinkling fireflies complement each other... It is indeed a rare beauty."
"... ..."
Stasha lowered her head slightly. She felt that she had accidentally touched her sister's sore spot and was blaming herself for it.
How stupid! I got carried away when I was happy. How could I forget my sister's eyes... She can't see anymore. If I upset my sister like this, she will be very sad.
"Stasha, do you like it?" Luo Ling suddenly asked.
"ah?"
Hearing this, Stasha was slightly startled.
"Do you like it?"
Luo Ling asked again.
"like... "
Stasha replied quietly.
"If you like it, let's go see it again, okay?" Luo Ling chuckled and said, "I remember that Gaoluding Mountain is not far away, and we can get there in just a few steps."
"Ah? This... But there are no fireflies now?" Stasha replied, but from her expression, she still missed the scene she saw at that time.
Especially... with my sister.
This is the finishing touch to the beautiful scenery in my memory.
However, there are more fireflies from June to August, and it’s only February now... How could there be any
"I'm just asking if you want to," Luo Ling said, "If you want to, let's go and see."
"Of course!"
Stasha nodded repeatedly.
Being able to take a walk with her sister in this quiet night, as if there were only the two of them in the world, she didn't want to miss this opportunity at all.
Even if you can't see the stars and fireflies.
"good."
Luo Ling smiled and gently held Stasha's hand.
In the night, they strolled to the place they remembered from the past, near Mount Gauldin.
Looking up, you will see the sky full of brilliant stars and the bright moon hanging in the sky. This alone is a stunning sight.
But it is still far inferior to the stunning scenery in my memory.
It's a bit of a pity.
But, this is already pretty good.
Just as Stasha was thinking this, she saw her sister suddenly raise her hand and point to the sky.
She heard it.
"Look, it's fireflies."
The next moment, the sky was filled with stars and scattered fireflies drifting slowly and steadily.
Just as I remembered.
Even she is still the same.
She laughed.
"Yes, sister."
“It’s a firefly.”
First of all, I would like to thank all the readers who are willing to subscribe to this book for their support!
To be honest, before the bounty was launched, I had never thought that this would happen. I had planned to work harder in early February and almost pay it off, but now...
It will probably take until March to pay it off.
Since the launch, Cat has been in a very low mood due to poor performance. He feels that all his efforts have been meaningless. In addition, he has been frustrated in finding a job, and all kinds of bad luck have come one after another (for example, the gym ran away the next day after he signed up for a gym membership). He hasn't suffered from Jade Syndrome, but he is definitely feeling uncomfortable.
Of course, Cat is still continuing to tell this story. Perhaps Miss Luo Ling’s story is more heartwarming, which is inconsistent with the current trend of killing, killing, killing, but Cat still likes it very much, purely likes it.
In other words, Mao likes every story and world he has created, as well as every Miss Luo, so he will never give up under any circumstances, not to mention that now he knows that there are so many readers who like it as much as Mao does~
Although her current grades were also very poor, even compared to the worst performing white-haired Lolita, which was 700 lower than her average subscription, the next period of time would still be very difficult, but... at least now, Mao had mustered up the confidence that Miss Luo Ling's story should not end in a stumbling way.
Therefore, the previous outline adjustment plan was cancelled, and the length will be approximately 1.2 million to 1.5 million words. It will be appropriately increased based on the development of the plot, and will never be less than 1.2 million words.
In the coming February, Mao will update from time to time. This month, at least 60,000 words will be updated, plus the basic update word count of 120,000, the total will be 180,000. This guarantee will be issued at the end of the month with a screenshot of the monthly update word count as proof. Mao never breaks his promise.
This bounty ends tonight. If there are large rewards later, I will increase it. But I think this is enough motivation. Don't fight, don't fight (bruised face)...
Special thanks to the three great masters Xiguaxiong, Qiancheng Xiaodeng, and Feigong Chihaya for their great support, as well as the love of all readers, Maotu Xiazuo.jpg
The current situation of arrears is as follows: starting from the day of the bounty, the basic update is 4,000, and additional updates will be made upwards.
Chapter 45: Lonely Luo Ling, the New God (5k5)
After a short but wonderful night of tenderness, Luo Ling looked at Stasha's sound sleep and the remaining happiness on her face, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
She is also a younger sister and knows exactly what her younger sister wants.
Even though Luo Ling hasn't been able to get it yet, it's still okay to give Stasha some comfort.
Unfortunately...
"Stasha... I think you should be able to guess something."
Luo Ling sighed softly in her heart. This was also something she was powerless to do anything about.
The puppet's disguise and control are already perfect, but in front of real emotions... it is still pale and powerless.
Luo Ling really couldn't give Stasha a real sister, and could only temporarily satisfy her sincere and pure wishes in this way.
"Yes...it's time to leave."
Luo Ling moved her gaze away from Stasha's sleeping face and activated the final review mechanism. A steady stream of information poured into her mind, all about the "company" and the "pioneer".
A lot of information in the world of awakeners is incomprehensible to ordinary people, even in Victoria, so most of the time, many actions of the "Company" and the "Pioneers" do not avoid ordinary people.
Unfortunately, these puppets are not ordinary people. They just look like humans. In essence, they are no different from the mycelium of Puppet Rumor. It is not a problem to understand this information.
So... in addition to directly related information, thousands of puppets spread across Victoria are like Luo Ling's spies, collecting all useful information for her.
A vast intelligence network hidden between the real and the real world is deeply rooted in the territory that the "Company" thought it had complete control over.
The most terrifying thing is that there is no need for connection and communication between the various points of this intelligence network, the risk of exposure is almost zero, and they will never betray Luo Ling.
Even if a certain being noticed that a certain puppet was abnormal, at most they could only kill the puppet, but could not trace back any valid information, let alone uproot it from the puppet.
This is the most significant advantage of the Puppet Rumor Intelligence Network compared to other ordinary intelligence networks.
"... I feel like through this program, I can develop some additional businesses? Like being an intelligence dealer or something like that?" Luo Ling thought about it, but quickly gave up the idea.
The main thing is... she has no one to take responsibility.
Alyssa is the most suitable one, but she is now the Saint of the Church of Light and it is impossible for her to be responsible for such equally complicated business. The burden is too heavy. Luo Ling still loves this Saint very much.
Elsa...
If this girl were to become an intelligence dealer, it would be considered an excellent performance if she didn't sell herself out.
The main reason is that Elsa is too young. In addition, this child is naive and not suitable for doing things that require smartness and flexibility.
And Lina, she is a super fighter.
With the help of Puppet Rumor's ability, Lina can even go head-to-head with "dangerous and weird" level beings. In terms of direct combat power alone, she is stronger than Luo Ling. It would be a waste for her to be a small intelligence dealer.
Besides, no one knows where Miss Knight is fooling around these days.
As for Luo Ling herself, she certainly could not take the initiative to come forward, so this idea had to be put aside for the time being, and if there was a suitable candidate later, she could deal with it another way.
