Chapter 332 Wishes

Fu Yi felt like he had heard a joke.

But this joke is not funny at all.

I was caught here just to save myself? Nothing is more ridiculous than this.

"Have you ever thought about it, kid?"

When the sweet meal was over, the cat cook wiped the corners of her mouth, spread her paws flat on the table, and asked solemnly: "Thinking makes people wise, and thinking also makes people painful... But if you don't think, what will happen if you don't think?" You can only fall into ignorance forever and become a monster without knowing it."

Fu Yi frowned: "You won't know it if you think about it?"

"When you think about it, you realize you've become a monster, just like us."

The Cat Chef shook her head as if she was mocking herself: "The more I think about it, the more I fear, the fear of our future, the fear of the end."

She said, "Fear of death..."

"What choice will you make before the doomed destruction comes? Survive at all costs, or give up all struggles and pray for God's mercy? Or resist without overestimating your capabilities?"

Around Chef Cat, there seemed to be countless voices overlapping each other, asking each other solemnly: "Have you ever thought about the future, child? Your future... In this dark world, is your future bright? Will you die someday in the future?"

"We thought about it."

"Then we came to the conclusion, and finally, here we are...and now we come to greet you," said the Cat Chef.

"It's that simple," she said.

Fu Yi shook his head: "To be honest, I don't see any connection between your conclusion and the illusion in front of me."

"This is exactly the solution and result we came up with."

Chef Cat knocked on the table, and the snowstorm outside the window suddenly stopped. Then, the sun shone brightly, and countless exotic flowers and plants grew out of the fertile land.

Colorful phantoms kept flashing out of the window and inside the house, and curious eyes peered inside from time to time.

He seems to be a boy, a girl, an old man, or none of them.

Thousands of cats squatted on trees, on the ground, on roof beams, on tables, chairs, and even next to Fu Yi, poking their heads and looking at the outsiders carefully.

Some of them barked softly in a friendly manner, and some boldly stepped forward to nuzzle her, wanting to play with her.

Fu Yi floated up in a panic, isolating the cats, and turned back to look at the cat cook: "These... are all hallucinations, right?"

"That's right."

All the cats said in unison: "What you see are the measures and results our species has made to deal with the doomsday, a shelter in nothingness.

Since there is no way to prevent death, we can postpone this day indefinitely... Before this future that is destined to usher in extinction, we can be saved and sleep in the endlessly long time.

And now, all we want to do is share this peace with you.

Outsiders, stop being attached to the world outside that is destined to sink into destruction. Why not stay here? Stay in this fantasyland where all your desires can be satisfied? "

"..."

Fu Yi fell into silence.

She could instinctively feel the sincerity in their words, and she could also feel the fear of doomsday inherited in the blood of the body.

This world is going to end.

There is no doubt that it is.

If they hadn't concealed themselves, then it was indeed a self-intentioned act of kindness to bring the two of them into it... In this cruel world, what could be more precious than the happiness and peace before death?

After being silent for a long time, she suddenly asked: "What if I refuse?"

A white cat said: "That means... you have not understood..."

Black Cat said: "Maybe you just don't understand."

The tabby cat tilted its head: "What's wrong with being here?"

"We need to sleep outdoors..." the gray cat said, "endure hunger and pain, but here there is no sorrow and despair..."

The Persian cat raised his eyes: "There is actually no difference between truth and falsehood."

"The end will never come."

The calico cat cub passed by her, raised his head and glanced at her: "Before destruction comes, we can all die in happiness and peace."

"You just still have obsession with the outside world."

The cat cook, who was as kind as a grandmother, picked up the cub and put it in her arms: "Would you like to make a bet?"

"What bet?"

"Let us prove to you that there is no difference between the outside and the shelter."

Cat Chef said: “There is everything here, no matter what kind of life you want to live and what kind of things you want to have, you can be satisfied.

We'll prove it to you. "

"How to prove it?" Fu Yi frowned.

"Make a wish, child."

All the cats said in unison: "We can grant your wish, any wish... You have three chances to ask us for what you want.

If there is anything in what you know and possess that we cannot achieve or obtain, then the existence of this sanctuary is unnecessary for you.

If you can't get the happiness and peace you want here, you can leave with your friends. "

They paused for a moment, and then Chef Cat said seriously: "But if you can't find anything here that doesn't satisfy you, can you please stay here?"

Let's all be friends together, and we will definitely get along very happily. "

"..."

Fu Yi said nothing.

Don't know how to respond.

It is true that this is a fantasy, but the fantasy is too real. Even time seems to be accelerated and any ideals and desires can be realized...

It was true that she had a way to withdraw, but doing so would be equivalent to leaving Huai Shi here alone.

If she wants to continue exploring in this Witch's Night, she must win this bet, otherwise she may have to stay here and dream for the rest of the time.

To be honest, she felt there was nothing wrong with dreaming.

Being friends with a bunch of cats seems like a lot of fun, too.

But sure enough... she still felt that it was more interesting to go on adventures with Huai Shi.

Therefore, you have to win.

So, what is there that you have outside that you can’t get here?

Even if she didn't know the details of the Ascendants and Hell, she knew that the only thing she could never make at this time was material demands.

Material is the most harsh thing, but in illusion, material becomes the simplest thing.

Maybe, try lying?

But is there really no way for the other party to know what he is thinking?

She thought for a long time and suddenly made her first wish.

"I want freedom."

All the cats stared at her in silence, unmoved.

Only the grandmother-like cat cook looked at her with pity, as if she already knew what she was thinking, and asked softly: "Did you have that kind of thing when you were outside?"

Fu Yi was silent.

Have you ever?

she does not know.

Whether it's her father's steel cradle, or her mother's control and planning of her life... How much of this belongs to Fu Yi?

She didn't answer.

She had never had this luxury thing outside of the dream of Witch Night.

For a long time, she lowered her head in frustration and sighed deeply.

Then, he made a second wish.

"friend."

She looked up and asked, "I don't have any friends here."

"Actually, your friend is here too." Cat Chef said softly: "Do you want to meet him?"

"Um?"

Fu Yi laughed as if he had some understanding: "I thought you would say that you are also my friends."

"Friendship is mutual, isn't it?" Cat Chef said warmly: "We do hope to be friends with you, but at this moment, I'm afraid it's hard for you to trust us from the bottom of your heart, right?"

Fu Yi took a deep breath.

A big stone fell in my heart.

It's good that Huai Shi is still here. At least he didn't run away somewhere or was abducted by some ghost.

In fact, Fu Yi suspected that as long as the cats pretended to be her, and with a little inducement, Huai Shi would jump into the trap on her own with the bones in her mouth.

"Let me state in advance that this is not my last wish -" Fu Yi raised her hand and asked, "Can I see him?"

"certainly."

Chef Cat nodded, and immediately showed a somewhat embarrassed look: "However, he seems to be busy, and I'm afraid he won't be able to take care of you for a while... I'm not lying, you will know after you see it."

She waved and pushed open the window.

There was no snowstorm rolling in outside the window, and the cats on the trees and grass disappeared silently, replaced by a familiar scene of ice and snow.

In the deep pit, three huge wolves were fighting fiercely, and they had reached the most dangerous moment.

Roaring sounds came and went.

"Yes 7!"

"Yes 9!"

"I can't afford it!"

"Exploded!"

"I am the king!"

Huaishi jumped up from the ground and laughed triumphantly as he threw a hand of iron cards to the ground: "I won again!"

"Fuck, what kind of luck!"

"Are you a cheater?"

The other two wolves, whose faces were covered with tinfoil strips, looked at Huai Shi suspiciously, but they couldn't find anything to do with him.

"If you don't get caught, you won't be considered a cheater."

Huai Shi whistled, took out a long strip of tin foil again, spat, waved his hand and put it on the faces of the two wolves, and sighed: "You are still young!"

Huai Shi's poker skills can only be described as average.

But he couldn't stand it. He used to play poker with Crow in the basement when he had nothing to do after training. For such a long time, his poker skills had not improved at all, but his experience and ability as a trickster were slipping away day by day.

Even if these two wolf beasts copied Huai Shi's personality, physical fitness and even short-term memory, how could they replicate the experience and instincts gained from the crow's face of blood?

"Keep going, there's still one round left!"

Huai Shi took the lead in shuffling the cards: "But you can't keep your word. If I win this round, you have to let me and my brother go."

"Wash quickly, wash quickly..."

"Just fight a couple more times. Aren't you pretty free anyway?"

The two brothers shuffled the cards happily, and someone else suggested: "Hey, do you want some midnight snacks? Are you hungry? We have short crispy pork and edamame here, which can go with the wine..."

…

In the dead silence, Fu Yi stared at the scene outside the window in disbelief.

It’s really yours, Huai Shi! I worked so hard to save you, how the hell did you reach an agreement with the criminals so quickly?

Chef Cat smiled and looked at the scene outside the window, then looked back at Fu Yi: "Maybe you can wait a while and watch them compete with Landlords to determine the outcome..."

"No need." Fu Yi sighed in frustration: "Winning by playing Landlords would be too embarrassing, right?"

Chef Cat smiled, closed the window, and asked solemnly.

"So, have you thought about your last wish?"

Fu Yi nodded.
