Witch Punk 2840

Chapter 185 How can Lilian have evil intentions?

"Hey..." Xia Ye was stunned.

However, Lilian did have a blank expression on her face, as if she had never seen Xia Ye before.

She suddenly understood...

As a person who originally had no head, Xia Ye couldn't be more clear-the witch's memory is divided into two parts, one part is stored in the cup, and the other part is stored in the head.

And Lilian, or the original Lilian, now only has one cup left.The girl in front of her should be a backup body created by her through some kind of contract, right?
After putting the cup into the backup body, Lilian can be "resurrected".However, the new Lilian inherits only the memory stored in the cup, and the other memories will disappear with the original body forever...

In this case, can the "Lilian" in front of me really be Lilian?

For a moment, Xia Ye even hated himself for reacting so quickly, and figured everything out in just a few seconds.The cruel fact was like a knife, pierced through her chest, and twisted a few times fiercely.

"Sister? What's your name? My name is Lilian. Your expression looks so sad. Are you feeling unwell? Can Lilian help..."

Looking at "Lilian" in front of him, Xia Ye finally couldn't bear it anymore, and his emotions rushed out like a flood that broke the embankment.She rushed forward, hugged the girl tightly, and cried loudly like a scream, completely losing her usual carefree appearance.

The girl trembled slightly, as if she had been taken aback, but instead of pushing Xia Ye away, she hugged her gently, and patted her back gently with her palm:

"Sister, just cry if you want to cry, it will make you feel better."

"Don't... woo... don't leave me... Lilian..."

"Lilian won't leave, Lilian is right here."

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

"Sister must have encountered something very sad. It's okay, Lilian will always be with you."

……

Obviously the girl's figure is smaller than Xia Ye, but at this moment, she is like a gentle mother, comforting her non-stop.After an unknown amount of time, Xia Ye's mood finally gradually stabilized, and she wept intermittently for a while before reluctantly leaving "Lilian"'s shoulder.

Bursts of dull pain continued to come from the heart.

The girl looked at Xia Ye's crying face, took off the backpack on her back, opened it, took out two tissues, and handed them to her.

"Sister, wipe it off."

"Woo...thank you..."

After Xia Ye wiped away her tears, the girl took out another cloak.

"This is the only thing in the bag, use it to wrap yourself first."

"Um……"

Like a small animal, Xia Ye nodded obediently, took the cloak, and wrapped it around her body.

"Does my sister have a place to live? If you don't mind, you can go to my house, take a bath first, and I'll make something for you to eat."

Hearing these gentle words, Xia Ye raised her head and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar girl in front of her. She couldn't help but wanted to cry again.

"Actually... I live in your house..." she said, holding back her tears.

"Eh?"

"That starts a month ago..."

Xia Ye spoke softly, starting from the first time he met Lilian, and told the experience between the two of them bit by bit.It wasn't until this moment that she realized that she actually remembered so many details, which were obviously trivial things in life, and she obviously only regarded Lilian's home as a place where she could live for free at the beginning.However, every time I dragged my tired body and opened the door, I would hear the joyful voice of "You are back, sister Xia Ye". Before I knew it, I had accepted it, fell in love with it, and couldn't live without the warm feeling of home.

But I am a fool, I have never paid attention to all this... No, it is better to say that I am subconsciously avoiding, unwilling to face up to it, because only by turning my heart into cold steel, measuring everything with benefits, and turning myself into a complete egoist - only in this way, I will not have to experience the pain of losing important people again, and will not be hurt.

I always thought that I had already become that kind of person.

but……

It wasn't until Lilian's death that she suddenly realized that her heart was not as cold as iron, it was indeed ice-cold, but it was just a piece of fragile ice, which would be shattered if it fell hard.

"...You suddenly appeared in front of my eyes and helped me block the moth beast's fatal blow. You were so painful that tears flowed out, but you still tried to smile and said to me, 'You can trust me...'. Then, your body exploded, and only the cup remained. Thanks to you, I killed the moth beast. Then, you appeared, took the cup from my hand, and put it in my body. I know you are Lilian, but... you are no longer the Lilian I used to know."

The girl quietly listened to Xia Ye's narration, until the last sentence, she suddenly showed a surprised expression.

"Sister, actually..."

"Ok?"

"That, that..." The girl's expression was a little weird, with some... apologetic?
Just as Xia Ye was feeling strange, she suddenly saw a gleam of light in the girl's azure blue eyes.

The light was fleeting, and the girl froze for a moment.Xia Ye immediately noticed that there seemed to be some inexplicable change in Lilian's body.

"?"

When Lilian recovered from her sluggish state, the expression on her face suddenly became more... strange.The girl's cheeks were red, a little excited, but also a little embarrassed. In addition, Xia Ye saw again from her eyes, that expression as if she had done something bad...

"Sister Xia, Xia Ye... that... I, I'm so happy..."

"Eh?" A bad premonition inexplicably rose in Xia Ye's heart.

"If I hadn't listened to your confession, I wouldn't have known that sister Xia Ye valued me so much and would be so sad after losing me. Lilian was really touched..." The girl looked at Xia Ye with red eyes.

"Wait, wait a minute... What the hell is going on..." The ominous premonition became stronger and stronger.

"I'm sorry, I didn't have time to tell you before, but actually... the memory I saved in my brain will not be lost. It will be uploaded to another... place synchronously all the time. After I change my body, this part of the memory will be synchronized to the new body, but... there is a delay of about 20 minutes, so during this time, I will be like a person who has lost memory..."

"???"

The premonition became reality, Xia Ye opened his mouth wide and looked at Lilian.

She was happy, very, very happy, because Lillian—the real Lillian—was standing before her unharmed.

but……

If Lilian is okay at all, then those words I just said in front of her, those words that are so numb that people's toes are on the ground...

What the hell is that? ! !
The most hateful thing is... Lilian is still laughing!

The girl was burying her head, wringing her fingers and giggling:
"Hehe...I didn't expect that sister Xia Ye is such a sentimental person...Because you are always busy with things, and you look like you have no time to talk to me...Sometimes Lilian can't help but think that she is really useless. To sister Xia Ye, maybe she is just a dispensable existence...But I didn't expect...Sister Xia Ye looks at Lilian so much...Lilian is really happy...But, after hearing that kind of words...It really is a bit embarrassing...Hehe..."

"……forget."

"Eh?"

Lilian raised her head and found that Xia Ye was staring at her with a crying expression - not crying out of sadness, but crying out of shame and anger.

"Since you can upload and download memories, you must be able to delete that memory just now, right?!"

"Eh, eh? Which memory is Xia Ye talking about?" The girl blinked her eyes and asked without any malice.

"W-Which part..." Xia Ye blushed before she could answer.

"Is it the part 'Lilian, please don't leave me'? Or the part 'every time I get home, hearing your voice makes me feel so happy'? Or..."

"Stop talking!!"

Xia Ye grabbed Lilian's shoulders, looked at her for a while, and quickly lost the battle.

She lowered her head, let go of her hands, and slowly squatted on the ground. She shrunk into a small ball, covered her face with her palms, and only one ear that had turned red was exposed among the pure white hair.

"I'm sorry... Sister Xia Ye, but Lilian's memory cannot be deleted at will..."

She heard Lilian whisper.

"And... for Lilian, that is also a very precious memory that she absolutely does not want to forget. If possible, Lilian would like to always remember what Sister Xia Ye said just now..."
