Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 992 Glass Dome

The little girl stared blankly at the five people in front of her.

The spreading lines of blood around her body completely disappeared, and her twisted body began to recover—

Instead of reverting to its original state covered in knife scars, it gradually began to become... transparent, just like those afterimages that vanished in the bumper car area.

"You...you are good people."

The little girl said softly.

"You are all good people..."

Where are you going now?

Yu Shijiu looked at the little girl who was about to disappear in front of him and asked again.

"I'm going...I'm going to find my mom and...and my old self..."

The little girl's voice grew softer and softer, and her body became increasingly transparent.

"It hurts so much... my body hurts so much... why does my body still hurt so much..."

The Ferris wheel turned slowly, and the lights in the cabins flickered under the dark red sky.

Yu Shijiu crouched in the cockpit, looking at the little girl in front of him who was about to disappear.

Her body had become almost transparent, with only her dark eyes retaining a last vestige of reality as she gazed at him sorrowfully.

"Brother, it hurts so much... Why does it still hurt so much..."

The little girl murmured, tears sliding down her cheeks and dripping onto the cabin floor, turning into tiny specks of light that dissipated into the air.

Yu Shijiu raised her left hand, and the faint red marks on the inside of her arm were still glowing slightly.

The frequency of the light was almost perfectly synchronized with the last faint light emanating from the little girl's body.

"Because you haven't found the answer yet."

He said suddenly.

The little girl was taken aback.

"The person you're waiting for hasn't come back, so the pain you feel is still there."

Yu Shijiu's voice was very soft, "But you're not her, right?"

The little girl's body began to tremble violently.

The light that was about to completely dissipate around him suddenly brightened for a moment.

"You are just a part of what she left here."

Yu Shijiu continued, "It's the part that hurts her the most, scares her the most, and makes her the loneliest."

"...How did my brother know?"

The little girl's voice became even softer, so soft that it was almost inaudible.

"Because I've been there too."

Yu Shijiu lowered his head and looked at the little girl's pale face.

"There is also a part of myself that remains in a place of great pain."

"That Shi Jiu..." Xu Han's eyes welled up with tears as she listened from behind, her legs trembling as she said, "Please don't say anymore..."

He almost cried while listening to it.

But Yu Shijiu continued speaking.

"Later, someone brought me out of that place."

He looked up and smiled gently at the little girl:

"Although I still think about it sometimes and it hurts, I still say that if you have someone by your side, it's not so hard to get through."

The little girl stared at him blankly.

A few seconds later, she smiled too.

A small, faint, and transparent smile appeared on her pale face covered with knife marks.

"Brother, thank you."

She said softly.

"Thank you for seeing me."

The moment the words left her lips, the little girl's transparent body completely transformed into countless shimmering points of light, slowly rising and dissipating into the dark red sky.

Only a badge remained, lying quietly on the cockpit floor.

The Ferris wheel-shaped badge, inlaid with colorful light bulbs, is glowing softly.

Yu Shijiu looked at the glowing badge lying on the floor and picked it up.

Congratulations to player Yu Shijiu for obtaining the item: "Tranquility Badge"

[Item Description: A unique prize from the Ferris wheel area, symbolizing a tranquil wait.]

[Item Effect: When worn, it slightly enhances the wearer's perception of mental pollution, but the side effect is that it will slowly accumulate "Loneliness Value." When the "Loneliness Value" reaches a critical point, the wearer will have the illusion of being abandoned by everyone—(Note: This item is only effective in the dungeon "Hush, Please Be Quiet.")]

Yu Shijiu put the badge back in his pocket and stood up.

The tourists in the surrounding cabins had somehow returned to normal, sitting in their respective cabins, their faces regaining that standard, stiff smile as the Ferris wheel slowly turned.

It was as if all that absurd and bizarre thing had never happened.

"Shi Jiu".

Anjie walked to his side and said worriedly:

"Are you ok?"

Yu Shijiu nodded, but his gaze was fixed on the area below the Ferris wheel.

Through the semi-transparent cockpit glass, he saw a small figure standing alone behind a window in the direction of Ghost Castle.

She was wearing a pink tutu, with her hair tied in two curly ponytails, and red ribbons slid down her cheeks, making her face look somewhat blurry.

But you can still clearly see that it is xylitol.

Behind the glass, Xylitol looked up at the Ferris wheel.

Because they were too far apart, Yu Shijiu couldn't see her expression clearly.

But he could sense it—

Xylitol is looking at him.

Or rather, she was looking at the spot where the little girl had disappeared.

Did she sense it?

He Lingling's voice came from behind, carrying a hint of solemnity and unease.

"That little girl was part of her, a part that remained inside the Ferris wheel."

He Lingling said.

"What exactly did Xylitol go through?"

Finally managing to overcome her weakness in the legs, Xu Han asked in a low voice from the side.

No one answered him.

The Ferris wheel, now back to normal, continued to rotate slowly, carrying them down.

When they stepped back onto the ground, the female staff member named Sky, wearing a white dress, was still standing at the narrow entrance with a gentle smile on her face.

"Did you have fun? If you like, you can ride it again."

Motian smiled and continued his recommendation.

"Next time."

Yu Shijiu touched the badge in his pocket and replied.

Mo Tian's smile remained unchanged. "Okay, welcome back next time."

Anjie glanced at the Ferris wheel, said nothing, and the five of them quickly left the Ferris wheel area.

Behind the window glass of the haunted house.

Xylitol stood still, motionless.

She suddenly felt a little empty inside.

It was very light and faint, as if something had disappeared from a very, very far place.

Mutangtang silently raised her hand and touched her chest.

There, that hidden place that had always been aching, seems... not to hurt as much anymore?
