Aoki didn't expect to get a real answer from suhuilan. The question has been in his heart for so many years. In fact, he doesn't remember how many years have passed, or even when he began to live in Liuying lane.

He once chatted with the neighbors in Liuying lane. The neighbors said that when he first came to Liuying lane, he stood under an old willow tree dressed like this, with a bird on the top of his head. At first, people thought he was shooting advertisements or portraits there. Liuying lane is an old street, so people often come to take pictures, and the crew came to take pictures. So the neighbors didn't take it seriously at that time. Later, they found that there were no photographers or cameras nearby, so they began to doubt whether the man was ill.

The neighborhood said that he stood under the willow for a day and night. Later, when he saw him again, he lived in a flower bar.

Aoki also asked the lifelong flower how he came to the bar. Every time I ask this question, I touch his forehead all my life and ask him with worry. If I drink too much or have a fever, I'm not sick.

He didn't remember standing under the big willow for a day and a night.

That willow is very old. It is said that it was the first willow planted in Liuying lane. Other willows were inserted with the paper cut from the tree. Every spring, the old willow will hang many graceful green branches to cover the withered and twisted trunk, so as to announce to the world that its vitality is still very strong.

Aoki has no memory, but can't find the memory before that. At least what happened later is still very clear, but he just can't dream. But he always felt that there was something wrong with his brain, not that he had no memory. Every time he recalls, he will have a headache, just like wearing a hoop curse. As soon as he recalls, he will be cursed.

Suhuilan looked at the green wood in a daze and asked, ”what do you think?”

Aoki said, ”nothing.”

Suhuilan smiled and didn't speak.

Subconscious thinking can't be concealed. If it's an ordinary person, what he thinks is tantamount to mobilizing his memory and will appear in his dream. But Aoki can't even dream. Of course, he can't know what he's thinking. He doesn't even need to use mental power to hide and shield his thoughts.

”Go out,” Aoki said.

Su Huilan nodded, ”it's time to go out.”

From Su Huilan's dream, they returned to the hall.

He found that when Su Huilan withdrew from her dream, there was no sign and feeling of dream collapse. He didn't know whether her mind control had special skills or whether there was any special reason for the game.

They stood in front of the mirror again.

Aoki was thinking, suhuilan just went in from the mirror, so did she come out from the mirror bit by bit? He should come out and wait first, so that he can see how suhuilan came out. But now it's too late to regret. You can't ask others to go in again.

Standing in front of the mirror for a while, Aoki asked, ”where are the archive and exit options for this game?”

He and Su Huilan are now in the box like a coffin. The box cuts off the perceptual connection between their consciousness and body through some mechanism, and directly inputs the game scene into their brain. So, how does the box know when they want to leave the game?

From the perspective of the game, there should be a mechanism that allows players to quit at any time.

Su Huilan said: ”now it's just for us to test the internal logic of devices and games. The archive and exit functions have not been completed. However, I heard that this function may not be available in the future.”

”Er... How to end the game?” Aoki was speechless. Which game would have no exit option?

”You can forcibly shut down.”

”Forced shutdown? We are in the box. Our body perception is cut off and our hands and feet can't move. How can we force shutdown?”

”The first generation of space box products is not perfect enough,” Su Huilan said. ”So when we came in, Professor Mei set the time for us.”

”That means we can only wait here now?” Aoki wanted to say that this is a regular shutdown, not a forced shutdown.

”That's right.”

”How long did the professor set for us?”

”Two minutes. Including the time of switching on and off, our actual time in the dream will not exceed 30 seconds.” Su Huilan smiled. ”This is also the most fascinating part of the game in the future.”
