Elena closed her eyes and her voice was hoarse:
“…… I waited four years, until I was an adult, and every day I wanted to hear about Guy and Alex’s remains in the newspapers and on the radio, but I didn’t wait until all the channels I had access to no longer broadcast news about the war. “
“…I gave up and kept waiting.”
Elena’s chest rose and fell slightly: “After I became an adult, I left the town to go to school, work, and live, but this place still haunts me. After I turned thirty, I saved up money and came to this small town where there was a war.”
“It was very prosperous at that time, and the damage after the war was still repaired to some extent. Some people built a large factory relying on the rich wood resources of the rainforest, which attracted many people to work, but this prosperity did not last long. ”
Elena looked back in the direction of the abandoned town: “The workers and machine tools in the large factory were running day and night, transporting the wood here to the world. Soon the wood here was exhausted, and a lot of trees were lost. Rainforests that originally received heavy rainfall gradually turned into deserts.”
“… Later, everyone here left again, and I am the only old woman who is still guarding the tomb here.” Elena patted the tombstone where she was sitting, and suddenly said, “Oh, by the way, Didn’t I forget to tell you about this cemetery?”
She rubbed her temples and sighed: “… When people get old, they tend to mess things up. This cemetery was used as a collective cemetery to bury dead soldiers during the war. After the war, it was acquired by a private owner and turned into a cemetery. Commercial cemetery for sale.”
“But most of the corpses buried here are nameless corpses from the war. The government did not allow them to be removed, so they have been buried here. The named corpses were all taken away by their families.”
“When I came here, I found the owner of this cemetery and said that I was willing to spend my own money to build two empty tombs for Alex and Guy in this cemetery. That is to say, there are no corpses in the tombs, only the remains of them. Something for me.”When Elena said this, her eyes became vacant: “But they quickly gave me a reply, saying that Alex can have a cemetery in this cemetery, but Guy Davis cannot.”
“…I asked them why, and they said that because Guy Davis had a rebel record, according to regulations, he was not eligible to be buried in any cemetery in the country.”
Elena’s voice suddenly became hysterical: “I screamed at this group of heartless businessmen, I said Guy Davis is dead!! He has been dead for more than ten years! Even God can forgive him after death. It’s not your turn to judge him for his crime!”
“Even a mouse with indigenous blood can purchase a grave in your cemetery. Why can’t an upright and kind person be buried!!”
Elena held on to the tombstone with a fierce look in her eyes. She choked and gasped:
“…I was young and vigorous at that time, and I was unwilling to accept it. I almost lost all my money and sold all my clothes and jewelry in order to sell them to Guy’s tomb from this cemetery seller…”
Elena smiled proudly, but tears fell from the corners of her eyes:
“I still succeeded. This cemetery dealer agreed to sell me the grave in violation of the regulations. You see, with enough money, the sins of this group of people who refuse to give up pursuing even death can be easily erased.”
“… After the cemetery dealer left here, this cemetery fell into ruins. I retaliated by changing all the tombstones here to Guy’s name. At that moment, it was really a mischievous pleasure.”
Speaking of this, Elena fell silent.
“…In Alex’s grave, I put some things that I took from his house, Guy, in Guy’s grave…” Elena couldn’t help but take a deep breath, “Because I really can’t find it. I didn’t want anything related to him, so I put in the old wedding dress I made for him.”
Bai Liu looked at Elena calmly: “Later, you found that the wedding dress was missing, right?”
Elena looked directly into Bai Liu’s eyes: “Yes, there hasn’t been a day in these years when I haven’t been tortured by the guilt of not agreeing to his marriage to Alex. I put it in Guy’s grave. The letter I later wrote to him agreeing to all his requests, and the wedding dress.”
“But one day the tomb was opened, and the wedding dress and letter inside were gone. There was still a reply letter from Guy. It was indeed his handwriting. The ink on it was not dry yet and was still fresh.” Elena’s breathing quickened, “I doubt, doubt…”
Bai Liu asked softly: “You suspect that they are not dead yet, they are still alive, but they just don’t want to see you.”
Elena was silent for a long time and said softly: “…Yes.”
“I started to experiment, and I found that whenever I put the wedding dress and letters on the grave, they would sometimes disappear the next day, and sometimes it would take a long time to disappear, and some new letters would appear, and the letters would disappear. It’s from fifty years ago.”
Elena breathed out: “These two things representing repentance may be the only reason why they are willing to come to see me. I started writing them according to the content of the letters and making wedding dresses for them, hoping that they would be willing to keep them. Come down and take a look at me.”
“…I hope I can personally say to Guy and Alex, I’m sorry, and God wishes you happiness forever.”
[May God wish you happiness forever] – Bai Liu had seen this sentence on Guy’s wedding dress.
Elena drooped her eyelids and said with some difficulty in breathing: “…I waited and waited for who knows how many years, made who knows how many wedding dresses, and wrote how many letters, until everyone left. Here, I still haven’t stopped waiting for them to come see me.”
“…Sometimes, I suspect that I have gone crazy.” Elena smiled, her eyes full of the vicissitudes of life, “I will see Guy in a wedding dress and holding a bouquet appearing in this cemetery from time to time. He still has a happy and beautiful smile on his face that I hope he can have. “
“…But when I got closer, I found that he was just a corpse that had been stitched together.”
She looked at Bai Liu with cloudy eyes: “If you are really Alex and Guy’s comrades, please tell them that I don’t expect them to forgive me for my despicable behavior. I just hope to meet them. It’s okay even if they don’t forgive me.”
Elena slowly shed a tear: “…I just want to see them be happy.”
“And not because of me, Alex’s fiancée, who can’t be together until death.”
“I will tell them.” Bai Liu stood up and smiled softly, “The wedding dress you made is very beautiful and suits Guy very well.”
Elena was stunned and raised her head.
Bai Liu said softly: “I have attended their wedding. Guy likes your wedding dress very much. He was very happy when he married Alex in the wedding dress. He said that he was so happy that he would willingly die for it the next second, too..”
Elena opened her lips. The look on her face was empty and broken. She looked at Bai Liu with suspicion and forced a smile: “Hey, young man, it’s enough to tell some flattering lies once already….”
Bai Liu pulled out a silk-like white gauze scarf from his pocket.
Elena stopped talking in disbelief.
“This is the veil of one of your wedding dresses. My friend accidentally pulled it off Guy’s head during the wedding.” Bai Liu handed it to Elena and smiled, “I never lie to please people, ma’am.”
Elena stared at the veil for a long time, then tremblingly stretched out her hand to touch it: “…the hair on it is indeed Guy’s hair. This is a wedding dress I made a long time ago. The thread hasn’t been connected here yet.”
“Are they…happy?” Elena held the veil and raised her head carefully and asked.
Bai Liu lowered his eyes: “They are indeed living happily in a place where you can’t see them.”
After Elena handed the letter to Bai Liu, Bai Liu and his party said goodbye to her and went back.
Liu Jiayi frowned in confusion: “If this is the real game world line, and the false game world line we experienced is the same relationship between the inner world and the outer world like Rose Factory, then there should be only one Guy— No, there were probably so many Guys who wore all the wedding dresses that Elena made.”
“Is it possible that it’s a seven-day cycle?” Tang Erda tried to come up with a new explanation. “The real world outside is running as usual, and the war world inside is a seven-day cycle. There will be a Guy in each cycle, and then Guy will be killed after death. Alex was buried in the cemetery.”
Bai Liu shook his head: “No, there is a contradiction in this explanation.”
Tang Erda asked: “What is the contradiction?”
Bai Liu glanced at him: “The effect of Alex’s potion is to change things back to the way they were seven days ago. It is not a cycle in the true sense. He can only restore existing things to the way they were seven days ago.”
“In other words, if Guy ran from the war world line to the real world line, then there would be no Guy in the war world line.” Liu Jiayi quickly reacted, “But we did see Guy in the war world line, so This argument doesn’t work.”
“And only Guy has multiple living dead. No one else in the War World line has this situation.”
Liu Jiayi thought: “I think the general direction of Tang Erda’s seven-day cycle is correct, but there must be something wrong with Guy, the NPC. I don’t understand why he is allowed to enter from the war world line to the real world line?”
“You have to ask Alex, the creator of the War World Line.” Bai Liu looked up at the mist that appeared in front of him again.
