I! Cleaner!

Is this... the voice of Senior Emma's mother?

After feeling the surging pain in Emma's heart through his clenched palms, Leon reminded her softly without caring whether it would hurt her heart:

"Senior Emma, ​​no matter what you heard, it's not true. We don't have your family behind us. Only by moving forward can we see your daughter."

"I... um..."

After hearing Leon's reminder, pale Emma nodded slightly, and then followed the force of the hand pulling, stepped into Leon's memory for the third time, and saw a little girl who was covered in dirt and her arms were scratched by tree branches, but happily handed her a nest of bird eggs for her to see.

A warmth that penetrated into the heart, along with Melanie's sly smile, quietly seeped into Emma's heart. Although it failed to melt the remorse surging in her heart, it made her heart calm down a little.

The cry of blood-splitting calls behind her still made Emma feel heartbroken every time, but as she stepped on the white blocks again and again, the memories of the poor and difficult but tender Lyon family became a warm hand, not only gently dragging her heart, but also tying the line of reason that was about to break again and again, giving her the courage to take a step forward.

On the contrary, Lyon, who was holding her hand, heard the sighs and cries of regret and a lot of angry scolding from behind her through the soul connected with Emma.

‘Sister Emma, ​​I like you so much, why do you want to hurt me? ’

‘You are the sinner of the Baohua family! If you hadn’t leaked the news, would we have died? ’

‘Traitor! Why do you still have the face to live? ’

‘I am disappointed to have a daughter like you. ’

‘If you still know what shame is, then look back and see how we died! ’

‘Go away, don’t come back to disgust us! ’

‘The last Baohua, very good, you live with this shame! ’

‘Emma, ​​it’s been six years, please turn back a little, let me see you again, okay? ’

Even with Emma’s soul as a barrier, only part of the content can be heard vaguely, but the resentment and resentment in these voices are still more piercing than a sharp knife.

And those disappointed sighs from Emma’s immediate family, mixed in the abuse and condemnation, made Leon’s heart chill.

After learning that Emma was the "last Baohua", he deliberately flipped through old newspapers and vaguely learned some of the situations more than six years ago.

Six years ago, it was the stage of the Patriotic War. When the Baohua family launched a coup, it seemed to have the intention of connecting with the invading Ice Country Aixito. There is even a saying that the invasion of the Ice Country itself seems to have a certain relationship with the Baohua family.

It was precisely because this news was leaked in advance that the Baohua family had to hastily launch a coup. The royal family, which had sensed the crisis, had to use the most severe punishment in order to stabilize its own position, resulting in the death of Baohua Alman, who was once as high as Lionheart Ryan, leaving only Emma and her daughter.

And if the leak of the news was really related to Emma, ​​then with her personality, she would probably be tormented by guilt all the time in the past six years, and it would be really difficult for her to not look back when she heard the curses of her clan members and the sighs of her family.

In addition, the conflict between the director and her just now seemed to have some other meanings.

Although neither of them said it clearly, from what they said, it seemed that Emma was going to do something, but the director did not want her to do it, and wanted to force her to "go the road of no return" in a fierce way so that she would choose to give up.

So, what is it that Emma Senior is driven to do out of guilt or remorse, but the Director wants to stop her from doing?

…

"Leon?"

After noticing Leon's increasingly chaotic thoughts through her clenched hands, Emma's heart trembled slightly, and then she was overwhelmed with guilt.

She only needed to wait for Leon to step on the white brick, and then she could safely pass through this bridge of memories under the protection of his beautiful memories, but Leon had to face his own pain again and again.

When he encountered black bricks for several consecutive times, he had to take the initiative to step back and try again and again until a safe white brick appeared that allowed him to pass.

And it seemed that his luck was not good. As the two continued to move forward, the number of times Leon needed to try began to increase, and in the end he even had to step on the black bricks three or four times in a row before he could find a white brick again.

From the time they got on the bridge to now, I have walked more than sixty steps in total, and the number of black bricks that Leon has stepped on has exceeded one hundred, proving that he has relived painful memories at least a hundred times.

At this time, it should be me, the senior, who should stand in front and protect him from the wind and rain, but because of my weakness and hesitation, I can only let him stand up and bear all this, and relive the painful experiences in his life again and again. This is really wrong.

"Let's go together."

After gently pulling Leon's palm, Emma, ​​who has seen almost all of Leon's beautiful life, suggested in a gentle voice:

"Leon, you don't have to explore the way for me anymore, I should be able to..."

"No!"

Listening to the sharp words in his ears, Leon refused without hesitation:

"Don't be stubborn! I can feel the state of your soul. You are just a little more stable now. If you are stimulated by those memories, I don't think you can hold on!"

You told me not to be stubborn, but aren't you also stubborn?

After biting her lips slightly, Emma suggested softly:

"How about this, you still help me step on the bricks and share your memories with me, but you don't need to find white bricks specifically, let me step on the black bricks too!

Because these bricks are stepped on by you, most of the memories I see are your memories, and only a few pictures of my memories will appear. I should be able to hold on this way!"

"Okay..."

After feeling the soul of senior Emma and confirming that she was not stubborn, but really had confidence, looking at the black and white bridge that had reached the end, Leon nodded slightly, moved his feet to the side, and gave up a corner of the black bricks under his feet.

After noticing Leon's movements, Emma secretly took a breath, then raised her foot and stepped on Leon's painful memories.

"Brother."

The familiar thin girl appeared in front of Emma again, but this time the expression on Anna's face was not the tenderness and happiness in her eyes when she looked at "herself" in the past, but calmness and a hint of regret.

After a short silence, the girl with a pale face on the bed turned her head slightly, and in a voice that seemed to disappear with the person at any time, she suggested weakly and stubbornly:

"Or, just leave me alone?"
