I don't know why, I started to have this dream again, a dream that I already knew the ending but expected something different. Maybe there is a difference between dreams and dreams.
"Play a game." Chen Chao took out a box.
"I don't like playing games." I wasn't interested and just leaned back.
"Why?"
"Because I don't like dying in games."
"Then just practice, and you'll always survive until the settlement screen." Chen Chao put the box on the table and spun it like a top.
"Not really. I can't even beat a human-machine."
"Then why do you hate dying in the game, but hope to be reborn in reality?" The box spins like a fat spindle, but stays firmly at one point.
"Death and failure are not what I actively pursue. I just hope for a good result."
"Will there be no good results if you fail the exam? If you die a few times in the game, there will be no next time?" Chen Chao raised his eyes. His eyes were a layerless ink color, a dull black. I thought that eyes like this would look dull, but they turned out to be like this, making people feel like they had nowhere to hide.
I am absolutely true to myself. Suddenly I remembered that when I first met Chen Chao, I vowed to say this to him.
Dang——I came back to my senses and looked for the sound. It was the sound of the box stopping. From turning to stopping, there seems to be no intermediate state of swing, which is really strange. Snap - one side of the box opened and a button fell out.
"I don't like dying in games. Then play a casual game!" Chen Chao pressed the button and waved to me. It looked like the staff on a roller coaster, smiling and waving mechanically. Could it be that I watched him slowly get farther and farther away from me next, and then suddenly fall down! Sorry! At least take some protective measures!
My eyes suddenly turned white. It's okay, it's just foggy. I looked around and felt something was wrong. No, it's just white. Why can't I even see myself? No, what does this mean? I'm gone? What are you playing at?
Determination: Do something when you know it is impossible to do
