“Is she... pregnant? ”

Song Cherry covered his lips with surprise, and Song Hao ran frowned directly.

Often, attitudes towards pregnant women are somewhat subtle.

This woman may not be forgiven, this woman may be hated, but when a little life is conceived in this woman's body, her situation will be somewhat different.

I'm afraid she won't be forgiven, but that little life born in her body is innocent.

Unstained, pure life is always loveable.

Our respect for pregnant women is due to her greatness in nurturing life.

“This is so cruel!” Song Cherry's face is pale - only Paul, seven or eight years old, on the stage, and the little life in Joan's stomach in red, only one of the two allowed to live.

For a moment, when Song Cherry looked at Alaiyah again, this blue-haired, blue-eyed girl no longer made her feel sophisticated and cute, but unnamed scared.

Because it was all done at her will - she set out such a cruel struggle for survival that she created it herself.

Joan, the red coat on the steel platform, stood idly like lightning struck him at the moment.

She lowered her head, her palms touched her abdominal position, her hair covered her face, her sadness and disgust everything was invisible, only that slightly trembling shoulder appeared so clear.

“You can't do this! You can't do this!! ”

Song Cherry suddenly looked excited. He quickly walked to Lok Qiu and grabbed his arm. "This is unreasonable, this is simply unreasonable! Do something! Do something! ”

“I've already told you not to interfere with Alayer's work.” Lochu shook his head, "and now that he had said it, he had to wait for the result. ”

“But this is so weird... so weird! ”

Song Cherry grabbed Lochu's arm with his hands instead, "That's unreasonable! Why must there be such a choice! Paul's just a kid! What happened to him? With so many people in the world, so many billions of people, can't we even accommodate such small lives? ”

Lochu was silent for a moment.

Song Cherry was a little scared and shook: “Do something... time, time is running out! ”

Alejandro has said that there are only sixty seconds left, and that time is passing fast, perhaps less than half, perhaps even less.

“Constant.” Finally, Rocciu opened his voice.

“What?” Song Cherry stunned, and Song Hao ran behind her.

“Probably of similar quality.” Lochu appealed: “Physically, everything on Earth is energy conservative. Liquid, solid, gaseous, converted to each other, and humans should be in this cycle. The soul… If it has weight, the soul should also be included in the constant cycle. Since it is the conservative parties, even if only a few more are out, it will make everything confusing and will no longer maintain the balance at this stage. Even at this stage..."

Speaking of which, Lochu suddenly stopped and glanced at Alayer.

The teenage girl was just following the change on the steel platform, while her arm was slowly stretched out... Rochu knew that time was probably near its limit.

The paved steel platform, a piece of steel, began to collapse and fall into the abyss below - meaning that the space left to Joan and Paul the Red was shrinking rapidly.

The giant sheet of steel falling from the sky didn't go into the abyss for a moment, and there was no sound - but it was the silence that made people feel scared.

Time seemed to pause at this point, when there was very little room left for Joan and Paul in Red to move, when the stripped steel plate was approaching Joan in Red's feet.

She glanced down and suddenly walked over to Paul.

Behind her, the steel sheets were still peeled off on one piece of land - finally, the moment she arrived in front of Paul, the number of steel sheets was only nine, giving the appearance of the Nine Palaces.

She stood in the middle of this steel plate with Paul.

“Paul... is that right?” Joan in red suddenly asked, reaching for Paul's cheek.

“Mom?” Paul looked at Joanne in red in awkwardness.

She suddenly asked softly, "Who changed your name for you, you know? ”

Paul shook his head blindly.

“I don't know.” Joan in red squatted down slowly and looked up at Paul's face, and his voice softened: “I... I have a child in my stomach that is about to be born. Paul doesn't know who gave you his name, but this kid in my body, he doesn't have a name yet. Paul, you know what? ”

Red Joan's palm slowly fell and grabbed Paul's wrist.

“Mom...” Paulton was terrified, “scared...”

Because at this moment, the remaining nine pieces of steel again peeled off the four pieces on the square - the remaining five pieces, giving the appearance of a cross.

“Paul, don't be afraid.” Joan in red sounds lighter, "by the way, Paul, have you seen your father? ”

Paul heard the word "father" and suddenly covered his ear - he seemed very afraid to hear the name.

Red Joan opened her lips slightly, but soon she stood up and hugged Paul, “Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Come on, listen. I'm in there. Can you hear anything? ”

And at this moment, the steel sheet peels off again.

……

Peeled - Four of the remaining five steel plates, also peeled directly at this moment, leaving only one space for red Joan and Paul to stand alone.

And Alayer reaches out again at this point —— meaning that the time she gives has come, but the results have not yet come -- and she will implement a backup plan to erase these ‘unstable' factors and then recreate them and put them into their original space-time trajectory.

[Target locked.

[Clear the program to start.

At the palm of Alayer's hands, a little bit of light began to converge —— they quickly turned blue and white.

And in these two light spheres, Song Hao ran into despair - he felt a great deal of power in these two light spheres!

“Can we wait a minute?” At this moment, Rocchu suddenly reached out and gently pressed Alayya's wrist and looked at Alayya Dao.

Alayer turned to his head, seemingly puzzled, and looked at Lochu: [Request? Orders?

“Would you like to refuse the request?” Lochu stared into Alayer's eyes.

The flashing blue light in these pupils began to faint and then quickly converged, and Alleyer said directly: [Affirmation: the time limit has been reached and must be cleaned up.

Lochu was silent for a moment -- and in this moment, Alleyer ignored him at all, and those two eyes of light were about to shoot out.

Roquette just said, "Orders. ”

The light bulb in the palms of Alayer's hands was frozen. [Accepted: Sub-administrator Alayer, No. 003 suspending the purge procedure… the procedure has been suspended.

Saying, Alayer's hands slowly put down, then looked at Lochu, [Report: The time limit has come, the 'instability’ factor will affect this time and space, and is currently being calculated...]

“Actually, there's still time, right?” Lochu looks at Alayer, "since two have been eliminated in a row, which means that the original burden has been considerably reduced. In that case, we could delay it a little longer. ”

Alayer's gaze kept flashing, even closing his eyes directly. It took him a few seconds to say: [Start fixing the time limit, fixing... fixing...]

So Alleyer fell into silence. When Song Sakura saw this, she couldn't help but relieve herself. When she looked at Lo Qiu, she smiled with a comforting smile. "I did not wrong you! ”

“No.” Lochu shook his head, "I just wanted to test if the so-called root cause permissions really could just order Alayer... if the time had come and no result had been reached, then the original end would have just been postponed. ”

“Anyway...” Song Cherry bit his teeth, "you still helped, didn't you? That at least proves that you are not the same as her... Did you know that the feeling you just gave me was the same as this Alayer gave me! ”

Lochu didn't speak, just turned around and looked silently at Joan and Paul in red over that last piece of steel.

He suddenly asked, "Do you think she's gentle now, real or fake? ”

Song Cherry opened his mouth and looked subconsciously.

At this moment, Joan in red has a tender face and a locked mouth. It is a moving motherhood… as if it were the mother who was breastfeeding the child.

True, false, no one can make it clear.

She said she was an actor herself.

……

“What did you hear? ”

Though there was only one last piece of steel left, Joan in red could not see any look of fear on her face, her eyes tender, as if infected, Paul's emotions gradually stabilized.

Paul raised his head and looked at Joan in red with confusion, "Mom, I can't hear a thing. ”

“Can't you really hear me? ”

Paul shook his head slowly.

Joan in red caressed his belly, his curtains drooped, "but I could hear this child in his belly, always calling me Mom, Mom. You know, the kid still talks to me a lot. ”

Paul opened his eyes as if he felt incredible.

Red Joan touched Paul's head, "Do you want to know what this kid told me? ”

Paul nodded.

Red Joan's voice got a little crisp, "he said to me, 'Mom, Mom, I want to come out, I want to meet Mom’, and that's what he said to me. So..."

Red Joan smiled and held Paul's armpit, lifting him up, "So if Mom wanted this kid to come out and meet her, but needed Paul's help, would Paul do it for her? ”

“Mmm!” Paul nodded heavily.

Joanne in red said softly, "What a good boy, Mom will always love you, always, always. ”

And so she raised Paul, her hands out of this only piece of steel, and she said, "Always, always, always, always...”

Look, Joanne in red is about to loosen her hand —— and once she does, Paul will fall into the abyss below, into the cracks of the dimension.

“No!”

Finally, Song Cherry screamed in horror below.

The sound is penetrating, and in this empty and quiet world of mirrors, the sound is clearly transmitted to the ears of Joan and Paul in red.

But Joan in red didn't care, she just looked at Paul with a smile on her face, "Paul, you know? Mom really wanted to be your mom, really wanted to be able to give birth to you personally. But if Paul was here, Mom couldn't have given birth to him. ”

“Mom, don't Paul anymore?” Paul asked with fear.

“Yes.” Joan in red suddenly said, “I'll have Paul. My baby, his name is... Paul. ”

Red Joan instantly loosened his hands.

Paul fell directly from the only steel platform, directly into the depths where he had fallen.

At this moment, Joan's eyes in red were cold, watching Paul fall, without any expression on his face, and he said softly, "I'm not your mother. But one thing you can be glad about is that you've actually met your father —— though, it's just this time of day. ”

“Mom...”

Voices, little shadows, also quickly disappeared into that dark abyss... on steel plates, and now there is only Joan in red.

Song Cherry grabbed Luo Qiu's arms and drowned helplessly at this moment.

She looked at Joan, the red coat standing on the steel plate, and her eyes became indifferent, as if she were just looking at a corpse, an object that contained no life.

“Why… is this…" Song Cherry felt a little cold and subconsciously held his body.

She looked at Lochu blindly and found that Lochu was not even blinking at the moment. She looked at Song Haoran and saw him smiling all the time. At this time, her face appeared slightly shady.

“I've won!” Joan in red suddenly called out, “Alayer! I won this time, didn't I? ”

[Limit time correction completed… Limit time reached the threshold…] The paused Alayer finally opened his eyes, and the blue eyes sparkled again and looked toward Lochu: [Question: Do you want to continue pausing the clearance procedure? Q: Do you want to continue suspending the clearance process?

Seeing Joan in red in silence, after a third questioning by Alleyer, he finally opened his mouth: "Even though there are countless shining pearls in the sea, there are times when the shell cannot be broken. Even, it can't be shaped at all... do as you please, Alayer, I don't care. ”

[Understood.] Alayer nodded: [Root permission approved, proceed with the cleanup procedure. It is proposed to start the backup plan, and Joan will recreate it.

Alayer opened her hands and a gleam of light emerged from her hands only, slowly.

In the air, this glow gradually stretches, transforms, trims, and eventually changes into a human form - and as these glows begin to fade from the top of this human form, they appear in front of everyone… yet another Joan.

It's just that Joe's body looks gray, like it's made of clay.

By Alayer's words, it is not from time and space that this Joan -- she, Joan, was re-created.

[Memory, recreation.] Alayer nodded at the forehead of this new Joan. [Fusion starts, virtual soul implantation... implantation succeeds... fusion time is expected to be 400 seconds... wait.

Watching this recreated Joan's skin tone gradually tend to be normal, like the one who really fell asleep... Red Joan screamed all at once!

“What are you doing!!! What the hell are you doing!!!” Joan the Red screams wildly right now: “I win!! I've won! I'm the last one left!! I am qualified to replace this time and space Joan!! I am the winner!! Alayer!! Alayer!! Do you want to break your promise!!! Let me go!! Let me go!! ”

[Rejected: Conditions for victory have not been met and ‘instability’ factors remain. Clear the program to restart.

Alayer slowly lifted her palms at this moment, a light sphere with horrific power that emerged once again from her palms.

“What do you mean you didn't meet the winning conditions!! I'm the only one left!!!” Joan in red is facing Alayer, panicking, "are you blind? Paul made me throw it away! How can there be an 'unstable’ factor here!! ”

But Alayer didn't say anything this time.

It makes Red Joan even more exhausted, “Liar!! You are all liars!! You're just having fun with me!! You are all liars!!! You've been planning on letting none of this go from the beginning! Let's all die! You, deprive me of everything!!! Liar!! Devil!!! ”

“Idiot!” Coldly, Song Hao ran's voice sounded.

This made Red Joan even more excited, but when he saw Song Hao Run, he smiled. “Look at you, you're smart. Why didn't you think of the simplest thing? Though you're the only one on the table? And the other one? Did you really win? ”

“One more… and one more?” Joan in red glared at the moment and turned around suddenly.

However, this sheet of steel is only one square meter in size, and who else can hide it there? Red Joan kept spinning his body, and all he saw was air, "You lied to me!! There is no such thing!! ”

“Who says no?” Song Hao opened his eyes and continued with a grin: “He is in your body, he is the child you are carrying. ”

Joan the Red was struck by lightning.

“Don't you see? ”

Song Hao ran a glance at Alayer and said: “She said that the victor can replace Joan of our time and space. But it didn't say, including the child that wouldn't have existed... the child in your stomach, I'm afraid, you had it in another time? So for this time and space, the child himself is the biggest ‘unstable’ factor! All you have to do is carry him, and you can't win! You're just wasting your time. ”

“Impossible... Impossible... Impossible! I don't believe, I don't believe... I don't believe!!” Red Joan suddenly pressed his hands against his head, "you lied to me!! You're all lying to me!! ”

Song Hao is a son and daughter of Jianghu. He has his own set of guidelines for happy and benevolent enmity. At this time, he looked at Joan in red and laughed. “The sins of heaven are especially forgiving, and the sins of self... cannot live. ”

“I don't want to--! ”

Joan in red suddenly screamed, and at this moment she suddenly saw her palms raised - and she had a sharp grip on her hand for a Western fork!

This fork is supposed to be Joanne's sweatshirt. When did it get to Joanne in red? Song Hao ran's head flashed... was it Joan the sweatshirt that accidentally dropped when he pushed Joan the white coat off the platform?

But time was not enough for Song Hao Run to think about it.

Because at this time, Joan in red suddenly used this Western fork to stick hard into his abdomen...

The light sphere in the palm of Alayer's hand, which also detached directly at this moment, quickly shot at Joan in red.

That glowing ball of time is like a glimpse of the sun.

In this white glow, Joan, the red coat on the steel plate, made a terrible scream - as the light ball approached, only Joan, the red coat, was shaking his hands up, and something seemed to be holding in his hands... that bloody life.

“I won...”

Incandescent glow that eventually devoured everything, all the sight, all the feeling.

……

As the light gradually dissipated, the steel plate was no longer visible in the air, nor, of course, the presence of Joan the Red.

But it doesn't seem to represent a complete end —— because Joan, who was recreated, hasn't opened his eyes.

“Man... is it really that scary?” Song Cherry glanced at Song Hao Run blindly. "In the end, did she give...”

Song Hao ran did not speak.

“At least he's been here. Though he never opened his eyes and never saw his mother conceived for the first time, he did come. ”

That's Rochu's voice.

When Song Cherry looked back, Lo Qiu walked forward and jumped into the dark abyss without warning.

“You guys wait here for me. ”
