Chapter 1021 The End of the Stage!

Spirit world.

The end of the stage.

Xu Xiao woke up from the chaos, only to feel a black patch in front of his eyes and a sharp pain in his head as if it was splitting.

After a long delay,

When the pain subsided, she was able to look around.

Everywhere I look, there is darkness.

There was only a beam of white light directly above her head, like the last protection, isolating her from the surroundings.

"Where am I?"

"Abyss Tower...in the bonus floor of the eighth floor?"

Xu Xiao's eyes gradually widened and he subconsciously touched his wrist.

But there was nothing there.

Not only did the [Glowing Wristband] disappear without a trace,

Even the storage belt and other equipment items disappeared!

The clothes on my body became ordinary clothes.

It was the school uniform she often wore before the apocalypse, which was washed so much that it turned white.

There was no sound, and no prompt.

Before Xu Xiao could figure out the situation, a bright white light suddenly appeared above his head!

The bright light, strong enough to blind one's eyes, instantly dyed the surrounding darkness into bright white!

Xu Xiao's consciousness was already in a trance, and after this stimulation, he lost consciousness again.

When she woke up, she was already sitting at the dining table.

Steaming dishes were placed in a circle on the table, and in the center, a small and exquisite cake was placed.

Nine candles burning quietly,

The flame is warm and soothing.

Xu Xiao stared at the flickering flame on the candle for a long time.

Then he seemed to realize something and looked up suddenly.

Not far from the table, she saw two familiar faces.

His mouth opened subconsciously, and a call filled with surprise and confusion was about to come out.

But when the voice came out, it turned into a childish question:

"I'm nine years old, and I'm going to light nine candles for my birthday."

"So when Dad has his birthday next week, do we have to light forty candles?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately drew mature and steady laughter.

The face that was becoming increasingly blurred in his memory was clearly reflected in Xu Xiao's pupils.

His face was full of love, as if he had never left.

"Dad doesn't need so many candles."

"For Dad's birthday, all you need to do is buy a small cake and put a thin candle on it. It's just a token of your appreciation."

Xu Xiao's mind went blank and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

But the childish voice did not stop.

Still following the original rhythm and tone, he continued:

"That won't do! Dad's birthday only comes once a year, and it has to be the same as mine!"

"Well... if we want to put forty candles on the cake, the cake needs to be bigger..."

"Hahaha, forty candles, how big a cake would that be?" The kind-looking man smiled.

"Dad is very happy that Xiaoxiao can remember dad's birthday. I feel so happy in my heart."

"Sweet?" The child's voice sounded again, full of ignorance and curiosity:

“Is it as sweet as the cream on the cake?”

"Sweeter than the cream on the cake!" the man laughed heartily.

It seemed as if at this moment, he was the happiest father in the world.

But a strong fear arose in Xu Xiao's heart!

"Okay Xiaoxiao, the candles are almost burned out, make a wish quickly!"

A gentle female voice came from the side, causing Xu Xiao's heart to tremble violently.

don't want,

Don't make a wish!

I don't want to make a wish!!

Xu Xiao's body trembled unconsciously like a frightened rabbit.

She tried desperately to close her mouth and stop herself from saying words that would lead to terrible consequences.

But she had no control over how things turned out.

Because the tender child's voice could not wait to ring out.

"My wish is that in a week, Dad will have a big birthday cake with forty candles on it!"

don't want……

Xu Xiao's soul seemed to be drained away, and he lost all his strength in an instant.

My parents’ laughter and their loving promises kept ringing in my ears:

"Okay, Xiaoxiao's wish will definitely come true."

The surrounding scene darkened again.

Xu Xiao felt like there was something inexplicably new in his mind.

I can’t say exactly what it is, but there is definitely some different content.

It’s like a candidate in the examination room who suddenly remembers that he has a pen in his hand and an answer sheet in front of him.

She seemed to know what to do.

The dark vision becomes clear again,

What catches your eye is the old-fashioned wall clock.

In my blurry vision, the pointer just pointed to twelve o'clock.

It's this time!

Xu Xiao turned his head suddenly and looked towards one side of the living room.

Then the phone rang.

Just one sound,

The call was immediately picked up by the mother who was standing by with a look of deep concern on her face.

As if she was worried about disturbing someone who was sleeping, she lowered her voice and asked anxiously.

His face turned pale visibly quickly.

Xu Xiao couldn't hear the specific content, but she could roughly guess it.

Under her gaze, her mother hastily left a message on a piece of paper, packed a few pieces of her father's clothes, and hurried out.

The moment the door closed with a click, Xu Xiao felt all the restraints on his body disappear.

She can move freely!

Xu Xiao immediately stood up and walked towards the note under the glass table.

The above content is just one sentence:

"Mom has to go out for something. If you're not back in the morning, take the money in the drawer and buy some breakfast for yourself, then go to school obediently."

Worry and fear appeared in Xu Xiao's eyes, and he immediately turned and walked towards the bedroom.

Open the door and turn on the light.

A familiar layout comes into view.

But on the small bed surrounded by dolls, there was no nine-year-old girl as she had expected, rubbing her sleepy eyes and sitting up in a daze.

Those who have to write the answer sheet,

is her.

A flash of enlightenment appeared in Xu Xiao's eyes, and he immediately ran out the door.

Dark streets and dim street lights.

There was a fine rain in the sky.

The cold wind that blew from time to time stuck the thin school uniform that had already been soaked to the girl's body, taking away the little body temperature she had.

But Xu Xiao's speed did not slow down at all.

It seems that as long as you keep running at the maximum speed, the destined ending can be changed.

I don’t know how far I ran or how long it took.

Xu Xiao finally arrived at his destination.

It was a public toilet.

I don’t know if it was caused by natural aging or if it was destroyed by some unscrupulous pedestrian.

The street lights next to the public toilet were completely off and visibility was very poor.

However, Xu Xiao could still see a few thin candles rolling on the rain-soaked ground.

One of them seemed to have been stepped on.

The candle bodies became flat and cracked, with only the wick barely connecting them.

"Do not……"

Xu Xiao stepped back in panic, shaking his head:
