On the roof of the Stars Pet Chain Supermarket.
In order to prevent people from jumping off the building, the roof had already been sealed. Even the maintenance staff had to get the procedures and magnetic cards before they could go up to the roof.
On the roof of such a high building, the wind was very strong, even though the ground was so hot that there was no wind at all.
On the roof of the building where no one was supposed to be, there was a girl who looked like a junior high school student. Her sailor suit of unknown material was fluttering in the wind.
She stood on the edge of the roof, overlooking the bustling Shanghai market. The bustling traffic was stopping and moving on the road. Although her body was swaying in the wind, she was not afraid of the possibility of falling from a height of 100 meters.
Behind her, a black and white kitten suddenly appeared, and she turned around at the same time.
"Meow!"
"Wahaha! Xinghai! Raise it up high! "
She bent down and picked up Xinghai, happily raising it above her head. Xinghai, who had always been afraid of people, was now acting like a normal pet cat. It played with her intimately. After all, it had been with her since she was born.
"Is everyone okay? What is the stinky dad doing? Needless to say, he must be in a terrible state looking for you! " She held Xinghai in her arms, sat down on the roof, and said with a smile full of longing, "I really want to go to the pet shop in this era!"
"Fina must be angry with me, but it also likes me the most!"
"Snowy Lionet is the most gentle to me, but I always suspect that it wants to lead me in a certain direction …"
"No matter how naughty I am, Grandpa Tea always secretly protects me."
"Richard brought me a lot of joy in my childhood …"
"Famous is a busy person, and he has endless appointments all day long."
"I don't know how many jokes Sister Shihua's global travel live broadcast will make …"
"When I was playing with mud and climbing trees with Pi, the horrible dad said I was like a mud monkey!"
"Facio is the most honest, always being ridden by me like a horse, hehe!"
"Vladimir and Xiao Bai still love and hate each other all day long …"
"Teacher Xiaodie … I'm really a little afraid of her, always leaving me a lot of homework that I can't finish …"
"Ah! Also! Dad probably can't see it now, but Sister Feifei is actually a career woman. She's working hard to manage the aquarium well. Uncle Qian and Uncle Kun … don't seem to have any plans to find a girlfriend and get married. Wu ~ I really want to get Sister Yiyun's autograph before she debuted as a BL mangaka … "
Even for her, she only had one childhood. She could reminisce about her childhood countless times, but she could only experience it once.
"Meow." It blinked its silver-gray eyes at her.
"I know, it's not time yet." She nodded regretfully.
As long as she wanted to, she could see everything that had happened, was happening, and was about to happen in the pet shop. However, "seeing" and "experiencing" were two different things.
Humans looked at the ants crawling on a piece of paper. Perhaps they felt that the ants were pitiful. The unknown world that they had explored with all their strength and energy was obvious to humans. However, just because they knew the result, did they deny the joy of exploring?
Humans are not ants, how can they know the joys of ants?
When it was time to get off work, fashionably dressed men and women poured out of various office buildings. The expressions on their faces were happy and depressed. They were thinking about getting a promotion and a raise, or falling in love and getting married. Maybe their lives were not smooth, but at least they were fulfilling. Most of them lived their lives in obscurity, but obscurity did not mean mediocrity. They tried, they explored, and that was enough. That was life.
"If I can't find you for too long, Dad will be suspicious. Go back first and say hello to everyone for me." She put Xinghai down and stood up.
Xinghai raised a front paw and said reluctantly, "Meow. Bye bye."
"Bye bye." She also waved.
Xinghai disappeared from where it was.
She knew that Xinghai came here by playing hide-and-seek. Dad looked for it several times at home and couldn't find it. He had already admitted defeat and told it to stop hiding and come out quickly.
"Well, I should go too," she muttered to herself.
The next moment, she also disappeared.
Almost at the same time, she appeared again.
It was not accurate to say "the next moment," because there seemed to be no time gap between her disappearance and reappearance, but for her, time was not linear. The words "the next moment" and so on had no practical meaning.
Only ants would crawl step by step from one end of the paper to the other. Humans only needed to fold the paper and send it over.
One end was connected to the past, and the other end was connected to the future.
The place where she appeared was a dark forest, surrounded by weeds and insects.
The bushes were shaking, and some small animals and night birds were frightened by her sudden appearance and fled into the depths of the forest.
The round moon hung high in the night sky like a silver plate. A bumpy path made by people and animals passed through the forest, stretching into the night.
She opened her hand, and there was a small piece of paper in her palm. But unlike regular paper, this paper only had length and width, no thickness. It was infinitely thin.
When the night wind blew, the paper suddenly began to expand — to be exact, it unfolded.
It was like a three-dimensional greeting card. When folded, there was only an X and Y axis, but when unfolded, there was an additional Z axis, forming a three-dimensional object.
The paper became a mobile phone, or at least something that looked like a modern mobile phone.
She tapped on the screen twice.
A white python appeared in front of her without warning. It was the one in the conference room.
The white python curled up its body, spitting its tongue anxiously, and observed the strange environment around it. The climate here made it feel very cold, and its body was stiff.
"Don't be afraid," she comforted. "This is the destiny that you are destined to achieve."
But the white python was still afraid. Half of it was because of her, and the other half was because of the instinctive fear of death of humans and animals. Only people and elves with iron will could overcome this instinct.
She gently stroked its cold scales. "It's okay. Where there is a 'cause', there is a 'effect'. Where there is a 'life', there is a 'death'. If you don't enter the history books here, you won't become an elfin. If you don't become an elfin, you are just a slightly rare, ordinary albino python. You won't spend the days together with Uncle Li Shentai."
At the mention of Southeast Asians, the cold eyes of the white python seemed to have a little more warmth, and it was no longer so afraid.
It already knew its life's destiny. It would die here, and only then could it become an elfin, and only then could it be captured by Li Shentai.
Perhaps in the eyes of the secular world, it and Li Shentai were both evil people, but the days when it fought hand in hand with him, and slaughtered and devoured other players and elfins were really enjoyable!
After a moment, it nodded and accepted its fate.
It was willing to use death to realize its destiny, in exchange for the good times it spent with Li Shentai.
