It will take the initiative to play with you, joke with you, laugh and chat with you, but make sure not to think that you are truly friends with it.

Otherwise, when you naively believe that you are well-acquainted, when you think your relationship has reached that point, and you go up to hug its shoulder and make a joke it often made with you before.

It will immediately put on a cold face and ask you back:

'Am I familiar with you?'"

Li Zhiyuan: "It can't take a joke."

Silhouette: "It looks down on you."

Li Zhiyuan: "I understand."

"This is the first point. The second point is about your illness. Like you, I have memory gaps, and once you're aware of it, you can't be clear about exactly how much is missing.

So, regarding your illness, I really don't have much advice to offer, maybe you don't need any advice either.

Because the answer might be hidden in this difficult process of exploration and trial.

Writing the answer clearly on paper, showing it to you, even shouting it in your ear thousands of times, would be meaningless and might even have a counter-effect.

You've already started treating your illness; I can see that there's been some effect, so just keep going.

Not giving up, fighting against the illness and the 'self' within you that you don't want to appear is, in itself, a kind of medicine."

"Okay, I understand."

"The third point, let's talk about my matter. Fortunately, after you leave this Dream, you will forget everything except the deeply understood parts, so you will also forget that I'm already dead.

That way, in reality, you should continue searching for traces of me. If you find any signs that I'm not dead, you'll rush over and stomp it out, helping me cut off my breath. I thank you."

Li Zhiyuan, puzzled, asked: "Is this point worth going over again?"

"It's worth it. I did die, and it wasn't easy, but in the end, I succeeded in dying.

But sure enough, there will be some nasty people thinking of bringing me back to life, won't there?"

"Bring you back to life?"

"I'm very worried about that, so you have to watch out for me. Whoever tries to revive me, don't listen to what they say, cry, or shout; just directly kill them all.

Because those who truly understand me would all hope for me to remain completely dead."

"Indeed."

"Before I died, I should have made special arrangements, fearing that someone would mess with my dead self, and under normal circumstances, this shouldn't happen.

But after seeing you, I changed my mind.

I started to worry.

The further you go, the more excellent you become, in order to suppress you... I'm afraid it might actually bring me out as a sacrifice.

If that's the case, the next time we meet, it won't be so harmonious and friendly."

"I'm quite looking forward to it; if this is the final exam, I hope the person who knows me best can come up with the questions for me."

"You cheeky boy, you're happy, but what about me?"

"You know, people like us don't have feelings."

Silhouette: "Don't say that. Even though I'm already dead, I'm quite looking forward to it too.

Just thinking about it is interesting, the two of us, one in front and one behind, after so many years and generations, can still force it to choose the lesser of two evils.

But it's just a thought, if you spot any signs of this in the future, you still have to preemptively thwart this plan.

Because it will anticipate, just like it didn't wait for you to grow up this time before dragging you onto the boat, it similarly won't wait until you're about to take the final step before holding its nose and bringing me out.

If you let me bully the young, you won't have a way out, understand?"

"Understood."

"Good, hearing that word makes me feel at ease."

"As it should be."

"Alright, that's it."

"Wasn't it over ten thousand points?"

"The ones after aren't composed yet."

"Mm."

The silhouette waved, the machine stopped rotating, and he and the boy got off the carousel together.

"In this world, I've been here, and I'm tired of playing, now it's your turn to play."

"Mm."

"Play well, and make sure not to play yourself to death."

Li Zhiyuan returned to the original Array location, where four unfamiliar companions obediently gathered around.

The boy activated the Array, and together the five of them disappeared from the spot.

The main subject of the dream left the Dream, and so the amusement park began to collapse faster.

The blurred silhouette stood still, gradually starting to dissipate, becoming even more indistinct.

He tilted his head back, looked up to the sky, and spoke:

"You really are more shameless than before."

...

"Beep!"

A horn sounded, pulling all five people in the car back to reality.

Throughout this process, none of them felt anything concrete, as if their minds just went blank for a moment, and all the events from the previous dream were erased.

Yet there was still a real impact.

Rusheng was covered in blood, collapsed in the back compartment, and just moments after waking, he lost consciousness and fell into a coma again.

Lin Shuyou clutched his eyes, kneeling there in great pain, as the blood continued to flow.

Tan Wenbin was extremely exhausted, his mind numb, yawning, and his head knocked against the steering wheel, causing the horn to blare earlier.

Yin Meng sat in her seat, head thrown back, her headache severe, reminding her of the consequences of secretly drinking the rice wine her grandfather brewed when she was little.

Facing such a sudden change, Li Zhiyuan frowned: Could it be that we've already entered the Dream?

Then now, does this count as reality?

But no matter what, we have to deal with the situation at hand first.

Li Zhiyuan extended his finger and flicked Tan Wenbin and Yin Meng on the forehead, releasing them from the hypnotic state.

Although the two still felt uncomfortable, they indeed felt much better than before.
