She had no idea what the consequences would be if she came into contact with Honkai energy now, but the only thing she was sure of was that it would not be a good result, and it might even be a big trouble.
Seeing Xilin’s stubborn look of making trouble but not willing to admit it, Lu Mian shook his head helplessly and stretched out his little paw to touch the former’s smooth forehead, “Every living person will encounter the same mistakes as making a wrong decision in a moment of impulse or confusion.
“After all, there is no living person who will not make wrong choices, and there is no living person who will not regret.
"Your mother and I will always be by your side and share the consequences of all your choices with you, but if possible, I actually hope that you can look directly into your own heart."
"Um - I'm sorry." Xilin stammered, like a little girl who had made an innocent mistake.
But he was the Ruler of the Sky who had no intention of causing the meteorite to fall to the earth and kill countless people.
Lu Mian did not respond. After all, he didn't want an apology.
He turned around and drifted away, leaving only one sentence:
“Killing can be a means to achieve an end, but it can never be a direct end. Remember this.
"Now go and pick up your friends."
The sound was light, but when it fell to the ground it was like a bolt of thunder out of nowhere.
Xilin was distracted for a moment and forgot all the movements, and just stood there in a daze, a little overwhelmed.
So he knew, when!?
[After many days, Xilin, who had been reborn for almost half a year, felt sweaty again. ]
[She originally thought that even if her hiding was not perfect, it was still relatively perfect.]
[After all, her mother Meiya has not shown any sign of doubting anything.]
[But I didn't expect you to guess something and choose to reveal it at this critical moment. ]
[Actually, it’s quite interesting.]
[The girl didn't even think about what kind of mother would be defensive and suspicious of her own child? ]
【...】
[After dealing with all the researchers in the Babel Tower Laboratory, you and Xilin returned to the group of small experimental subjects.]
[Xilin was very familiar with the process, and picked out several girls with different expressions, as if she had practiced it a thousand times in her mind.]
[And you were busy finding the original homes and new places for all the remaining girls. ]
[Seeing this, Xilin, who was excited but cautiously talking to those "old friends", inadvertently smiled happily.]
[But I no longer worry about rebirth. ]
[Perhaps it is because time really has a magical power, at this moment she has been quietly changed too much. ]
[Naturally, I won’t dwell on this kind of thing anymore. ]
[If possible, she would like to let you know. ]
-----------------
[You and Xilin went out for a trip, but when you returned home you brought back four little girls for Meiya.]
【This is more or less a bit humorous. 】
[If it had happened in the past, the already poor families would have been even more destitute because of this.]
[But your family is quite wealthy now, so you won’t be bankrupted by these new mouths.]
[So as long as Xilin is willing, Meiya actually doesn't mind raising a few more children. ]
[With this in mind, Meiya welcomed the new members of the family.]
[The little girls who have no parents and no home can't resist such a mother-like role. ]
【It is extremely pleasant to be together. 】
[Let me briefly introduce these four girls. ]
[The oldest one is the same age as Xilin and is named Bella. She has beautiful long light blue hair.]
[Unlike the somewhat foolish Benares Bebelong who appeared in later generations, this master is very calm and steady.]
[She has the aura of a big sister in her every move. 】
[The younger one is a playful girl with a fiery red high ponytail. Although she is a little naughty, she is not naughty, so it's okay.]
【Its name: Agata.】
[Next in the row is Aurora, who has long light green hair and a calm and peaceful look, and looks very virtuous.]
[It is worth mentioning that this little girl inexplicably gives you a sense of déjà vu, and she looks a bit like Su. ]
【Um......】
[Maybe it’s an illusion...]
[The last one is a little girl with gray-gold twin ponytails and a slightly gloomy and dead look.]
【Her name is Galina.】
[The four girls looked at each other and knew each other. ]
【After that, you no longer have any interest in knowing anything about them. 】
[After all, they are Xilin's friends, not yours. ]
【It’s normal that you are not interested. 】
[However, because of your easy-going personality, you two will get along quite well in the next few days...]
【As the saying goes: With books, you are long; without books, you are short. 】
[Time passed slowly, and several months passed in a flash. ]
[Unconsciously, it has been more than a year since you started the simulation, and more than a year has also passed since Xilin was reborn. ]
[In the past year or so, you have been subtly influencing Xilin's thoughts.]
[Even though she still doesn't like strangers, she is definitely not as extreme as before. ]
[There will be no more situations like the one before in the Tower of Babylon where they were so angry that they wanted to touch the Honkai energy reactor right after they got angry. ]
[This is also due to your contribution as a guide. 】
[In addition, you also consciously or unconsciously guided Bella's subsequent children.]
[Although it is done casually, it is also quite effective. 】
[After talking about the children's growth and changes, let's talk about their common mother, Meiya. ]
[The bottle of primary healing potion that was only half full did not completely cure Meiya's illness.]
[There is still a stubborn root of disease deep inside. ]
[Although it does not affect life span, there will no longer be severe pain accompanied by vomiting blood like before. ]
【But it’s not a good thing after all. 】
[So you found an opportunity to directly activate the Black Abyss White Flower to erase it.]
[The power of the Black Abyss White Flower is amazing, isn't it? ]
[At this point, the summary of the past year has come to an end, in order to celebrate this special time of "one year anniversary" in various senses. 】
[You also held a family gathering for your first anniversary.]
Midnight, on the Siberian plains, in a large brick and cement house.
In the luxurious cement house which had expanded a lot and had more of a homely feel than before, Lu Mian, Mei Ya, Xilin and the four little ones headed by Bella sat around a round table with candles burning, enjoying dinner together in the atmosphere of a family gathering.
In the dim firelight, Bella, Agatha, Aurora and Galina gathered together and talked in low voices.
Xilin stood aside with an expressionless face, eavesdropping silently.
On the other side, Lu Mian and Mei Ya were also talking.
"Madam, as part of our first anniversary celebration, do you want to go out and play?" Lu Mian, who had not eaten much, squatted beside Mei Ya and asked.
Hearing this, Maya was slightly stunned, "Go out and play?"
"Yes, let's go out and play," Lu Mian nodded, and then began to explain bit by bit, "It's always windy or snowy here, and although the white expanse is solemn, there is absolutely no other scenery.
"Do you want to go out and take a look? Go to the endless sea of flowers to see a rain you have never seen before, or go to the beach to feel the sea breeze."
He was really good at it, and the places he picked were almost all places you would never see in your lifetime on the Siberian plains.
Mei Ya was naturally persuaded, but still a little hesitant: "Is this a good idea? Will it be troublesome?"
"Hey, it's not a big deal. Since you also want to go out and play, then it's settled." As he spoke, Lu Mian's tone gradually became tinged with a hint of smile.
And just like that, the children, Sirin, Bella, Agatha, Aurora, and Galina, were barely aware of it.
The two family heads, Lu Mian and Mei Ya, quietly planned a trip.
[After that, you and your group really went on a journey, leaving the Siberian plains and this vast white place.]
[Just as you said, we first went to a flower field full of colorful flowers. ]
[Coincidentally, you really encountered a rain there, a rain that Meiya and others who had lived on the Siberian plains since childhood had never seen.]
[Well - thanks to the unknown bishop in white bishop's robes for the coincidental rainfall.]
[I won’t go into details, but to sum it up, you took a lot of photos in that sea of flowers full of coincidences.]
[Some photos were taken on a sunny day, and some were taken in a drizzle. Everyone was smiling happily. ]
[After this wonderful trip to the sea of flowers, you did not board the return flight, but went to the nearest beach. ]
Noon, at the seaside.
The sun shines gently on the blue sea, and the waves sparkle like countless diamonds.
The waves gently hit the rocks on the shore, breaking into countless waves before composing a melody unique to the sea and the coast.
The beach at the seaside is soft and smooth, and there is a wonderful feeling of warmth and comfort when you step on it. The sand glows a light golden color under the sunlight, like a colorful ocean connected to the blue sea.
In the distance, the blue sky and the sea merge into a line, and it is really hard to tell where the sky is and where the sea is.
The sea breeze blew gently, bringing with it the freshness and unique salty taste of the sea water. A few seagulls soared in the sky along the sea breeze, leaving behind a few echoing cries.
The usually bustling beach was now deserted, with only a group of people and a cat.
Because this place is reserved.
[Well - I would also like to thank the unknown bishop in white bishop's robe for the friendly offer of the private viewing of the sea. ]
Lu Mian led Mei Ya and others who had changed into swimsuits and walked on the beach, feeling the slightly salty and humid sea breeze, looking very comfortable.
If the sea of flowers before was where he took them around to play, now the seaside is where they play together.
Because he really wanted to go to the beach, have some fun, bask in the sun, etc...
Lu Mian ran to the beach with great interest, kicked the waves, and then turned around and shouted to Mei Ya and others behind him:
"What are you waiting for? Come and play with us?"
Hearing this, the children, who had never seen the sea before, ran to the beach and splashed water on each other.
Lu Mian didn't run away in time and was splashed several times.
In his heart, he silently thought of the mischievousness of his girls. He walked over to Maya who was standing far away and watching, and asked in a gentle voice:
"Why don't you go over and play with the girls? Is it because you're not as interested in the ocean as you thought?"
"No, I just felt that at my age, I was still wearing clothes like this and playing in the water with the kids.
"A little bit, a little bit..."
Mei Ya didn't finish her words, but Lu Mian could guess what she would say next, which made him even more speechless.
After being speechless for a while, Lu Mian squinted his eyes and looked up and down at Mei Ya's outfit.
Although everyone wears a swimsuit when going to the beach, there are extremely obvious differences between swimsuits.
For example, the one the other person was wearing at the moment was almost no different from the children's swimsuits worn by Xilin and the other little girls.
The main focus is conservatism.
