Chapter 1558: Making a Wish on a Shooting Star

"Should I say I'm surprised? You would never do this to me before... I mean Xiaobai."

"Haha..." It was a joke, and Gray Snake gave the standard response when hearing a joke.

A casual laugh and a gentle shake of the head.

"In fact, it's just a tiny bit. The amount just makes the taste a little weird."

"Remember? You actually liked it before."

You don't say, Bai Mo remembered it immediately after the gray snake reminded him.

"Are you talking about that time when I thought the strawberries were too small and put Jackal's special spicy chili sauce into the ice cream instead of strawberry jam?"

"Yes." These two words contained a smile that was difficult to conceal.

It was obvious that he had thought of something, and even though he was usually able to keep his emotions under control, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"That day, you were so hot that you ran around the base, rolling around and breathing fire..."

After a pause, perhaps realizing that he had lost his composure, the gray snake coughed lightly, controlled his emotions, and tried not to laugh.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring that up."

"But your spitting fire at that time is a real adjective."

"..."

In fact, Bai Mo really wanted to tell Huishe that you don’t have to add that last sentence.

But forget it. Now, I don’t seem to feel ashamed when people remind me of my childhood in front of Gray Snake.

"Thinking about it now, I seemed more like a normal person back then."

Recalling that time and looking at her current situation, she couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Although I would occasionally think about some things at that time, but..."

"That innocence, that ignorance, that heart that can be bought by a little ice cream, that soul that can be aroused by a small gift."

“I will be happy when I get something delicious, I will imitate a good story with a stick, and I will forget a heavy burden because of a simple thing.”

Compared to now, perhaps...

The little girl who sits under the tree holding a comic book and burying her head in the comic book is truly alive.

She was the one who held up a small stick and shouted out her expectations and aspirations, with confidence and innocent fantasies...

Only then can he be called the last light in that story.

Taking a step forward, Bai Mo placed himself under the snow.

She stretched out her hand, and snowflakes fell into her palm, but quickly dissipated, just as she had said before.

Once it falls, it is really over.

"how to say……"

"It's a bit irresponsible, but... I'm very happy."

She wanted to turn back, but remembered that the gray snake didn't want to meet her.

She kept this agreement very well.

Just like the gray snake will always stand behind Xiaobai.

More than a thousand times, without moving a single step.

How long have you felt this way?

Alicia...

dad……

It seemed that apart from them, Gray Snake was the third one, the one who had always been standing behind her.

But they...

But it is the enemy.

"time is limited."

The starry sky at night is beautiful, and midnight is approaching.

"In the end... I think I can ask a question that I have never asked before."

"..."

“I think at this moment, I am looking forward to it.”

Last time, Bai Mo asked a question that had only appeared once in a thousand times.

"My father, why did he leave?"

That question, just this once.

Gray Snake did not answer, I don't know...

Will he regret it?

And now, he has to face the same choice again.

"If I beg you now, can you give up the Stigmata Plan?"

Some people say that the problem itself is a choice in life, with countless branches extending from one choice.

They are compatible and intertwined with each other, and finally span the night and become the dazzling stars.

When you walk in front of it, one of the stars will light up for you and come into your life.

Add a memory to your path that may not be so beautiful.

That's why we say that the stars guide you in the right direction, because that is the future you have not yet reached.

and so……

If the stars in the sky are all the ones that have not made a choice, then what Bai Mo is asking and thinking at this moment is the brightest star in Gray Snake's life.

He appeared before my eyes so suddenly.

Yes, abrupt.

He hadn't prepared, hadn't thought about it.

I never even imagined that Bai Mo would ask this question.

That day, the young master he respected the most asked him a question.

That day, she bowed her head to him.

Just because...

I want you to live.

"I know what the Stigma Project means to you."

"I don't expect my words to change this belief."

"So, after all your efforts, control your stubborn temper."

"Just like the countless times I have yielded to take care of that disobedient child..."

"One more time, one last time."

"..."

Bai Mo knew very well what the Stigma Project meant to Gray Snake.

She would not be so arrogant as to think that Xiao Bai would have a higher status in Gray Snake's heart than the Stigmata Project.

Bai Mo had never had such a ridiculous idea.

Therefore, she only hoped that Gray Snake could finally...

Take a step back.

"You know, if a person can reach the end, isn't that a kind of perfection?"

But unfortunately, not every star shines to point the way, just as not every question will have the desired answer.

He took a step forward, and the black umbrella separated the girl walking into the snow from the falling snow in the sky.

He was like a gentleman, a proper butler, keeping quiet behind the scenes and looking ahead.

"I think if I can reach the place called 'the end'..."

Gently, he handed the umbrella to the girl's side.

"It's just that I can't hold an umbrella for you."

The last snowflake fell.

It landed right in the middle of the umbrella.

Take a deep breath and let the cold air fill your nostrils.

"Yes, I understand..."

She took the umbrella beside her and looked up.

The snow stopped, the fog dissipated, and a star in the sky lit up in Bai Mo's pupils.

"Another star has lit up."

She held out her hand, and this...how many times had this happened?

"The speed of time here is different from that outside, right?"

Shrugging his shoulders, Bai Mo withdrew his gaze, as if nothing that had just happened had ever happened.

"We have been here for more than a thousand days and nights. What about outside..." It was obvious that I already knew what the girl wanted to ask, but in the end, she shook her head in relaxation and faced the stars again.

"Forget it. I'm afraid I won't be able to see the real starry sky before the last starlight disappears."

"..."

"The real starry sky may not be this magnificent."

"I know." Facing the gray snake's comfort, Bai Mo became more relaxed, and even the movement of his head seemed a little slow.

"The stars here are beautiful, but it's just a dream."

"And I...have kind of forgotten how I really feel."

“So I think when the real stars pass by, I will definitely look up.”

"Until then……"

The stars in the sky are getting brighter and brighter, shining like shooting stars that stay for you.

Holding on to the railing, the girl stood on tiptoe.

"Come and make a wish."

She leaned forward, closed her eyes, and raised her head, pious and solemn.
