"Dr. Mo Zhi #189..."
Amiya's face was filled with self-reproach. She explained, "I... I'm not... I..."
"The fog has cleared."
"The Civil Affairs Bureau has sent a notice. They've found more traces of the Reunion movement."
Hoshiguma walked over, "They said they were tracking an enemy, female, white hair—"
Amiya: "..."
"Amiya, Lao Chen is urging me, telling you to—" It was then that the carefree Hoshiguma noticed Amiya's pale face and didn't know what to say.
[Leave it to me]
The prompt appeared at the opportune moment. Mo Zhi (Doctor): "Leave it to me."
"Then..."
Hoshiguma: "Then we'll leave it to you, Dr. Mo Zhi."
"It's best to depart within five minutes."
After Hoshiguma left, Amiya still looked self-reproachful. She lowered her head, gazing at her toes, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Doctor..."
[Are you afraid?]
[...Or rather, do you dislike this power?]
[Amiya, there's no need for regret.]
Mo Zhi knew that at this moment, as the spiritual mentor for everyone, and especially as the person Amiya trusted the most, she had to step forward.
Otherwise, Little Rabbit would continue to live in remorse and regret.
Thus,
Mo Zhi chose the first option: "Are you afraid?"
She intended to go through each option to fully understand Little Rabbit's inner thoughts.
"Ah...? I...?" Amiya explained, "Doctor... I'm not afraid of anything..."
After a while, she deflated like a balloon and revealed her true feelings, "Of course, I'm afraid, afraid of losing again... that's why..."
"No, I just don't want to..."
Sigh!
Mo Zhi sighed heavily. The Doctor was more important in Amiya's heart than she had imagined.
Poor child...
She looked at the wronged rabbit before her, feeling increasingly distressed.
How wonderful,
"I really want to pat her head. This child's care and concern for the Doctor are beyond my imagination."
Mo Zhi hesitated at the second option, "To be honest, I can't bear to choose the second option. Saying that would be too inhumane."
Saying this,
This detestable woman had already jumped out of the story, reset, and returned to the selection screen, then pressed the second option.
Saying she didn't want to, but her body was very honest.
The audience couldn't hold back.
'Holy crap, are you a demon?'
'With that tone for the second option... I want to punch you a couple of times.'
'Little Rabbit is already so wronged, aren't you inhuman!'
.......
[...Or rather, do you dislike this power?]
"I... I don't know..." Amiya was somewhat flustered, "I don't know if I should say it like this... but I..."
"It shouldn't just... hurt others."
"I don't want the Doctor to see me, to see me up close... taking a life."
When she saw the different text options, Mo Zhi knew she had guessed correctly.
"Damn it!"
"I feel like I missed a lot of content!"
Recalling the previous three choices, she hadn't paid much attention, assuming they were all the same.
Now it seemed the old thief was very well-prepared.
The first choice revealed that Amiya cared about the Doctor immensely, willing to risk everything for him.
The second showed Little Rabbit's true heart.
Mo Zhi no longer hesitated and clicked the third option—[Amiya, there's no need for regret.]
This was a relatively heartwarming comfort.
"I have no regrets."
"No, I mean..."
"I will use my power for the Doctor, no matter what he carries. I have no regrets about killing him."
Amiya's words deeply touched the hearts of all the viewers present.
Such a cute Little Rabbit bravely pouring out her heart to the Doctor, expressing her care for him.
This kind of firm, chosen feeling...
Who among the Doctors could resist it?
After all, the players were role-playing as the Doctor. This feeling of being resolutely chosen gave many a sense of satisfaction that they couldn't experience in reality.
'Little Donkey, I love you!'
'Amiya: (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻'
'If the Doctor were evil, Amiya would easily become a murderer.'
.......
In an instant, gifts flooded the live stream.
In the viewers' words, they were gifting for their beloved Little Rabbit, not the streamer.
See,
Once you capture the players' hearts, why worry about the game not becoming popular?
In the game,
Amiya also had her own reflections, "But, of course... perhaps there was a better way originally."
"Because I couldn't find that way, he died."
"This... I regret."
"I don't want... I don't want you, Mo Zhi, to see me like this..."
"I said I would free the Infected on this land from their suffering... yet at the critical moment, I still have to convince myself, time and time again, to take the lives of the Infected."
She blamed herself, "I'm truly too weak."
Amiya's reflections allowed Mo Zhi and the viewers to understand the fundamental difference between Rhodes Island and the Reunion movement.
'Guardians are also perpetrators - Kal'tsit.'
'Too weak, this is all because we lack power!'
'Here, Amiya feels the contradiction in her actions. She said she would save the Infected, but here she is killing people.'
'It's the same act of taking lives, but Amiya is reflecting, while Reunion is not. This is the essential difference.'
'At least so far, most of the Reunion movement has been blinded by hatred.'
'Don't just ask questions, comfort my Little Rabbit!'
.......
The viewers couldn't stand it anymore. The streamer, Doctor, you said you would solve it, but you just kept asking and asking.
Little Rabbit was almost crying from being questioned, and you wouldn't even comfort her.
[Amiya, at least you protected me.]
The prompt appeared, and Mo Zhi seemed to have grabbed a lifeline.
If she didn't pat Little Rabbit's head and comfort the adorable little rabbit soon, the viewers would revolt.
"—!!" Hearing the Doctor's comfort, Little Rabbit's eyes widened.
Her actions were affirmed, her feelings understood, and that felt wonderful!
"It was what I should have done."
"I understand."
"I never believed that anything was truly destined."
"It's just that, no matter what... no matter how far I go, I will protect you, Doctor."
After being comforted by the Doctor, Little Rabbit's knot untangled. Her sad expression disappeared, and the melancholy in her eyes gradually faded.
"How about that!"
Mo Zhi proudly raised her head, "Are you still scolding me?"
"If you don't watch all the options, can you see such a rich and colorful inner world of Little Rabbit?"
"I have to say, this Little Rabbit is becoming more and more endearing."
"It's just that Misha is a bit tragic. She personally witnessed Little Rabbit kill her own brother, and Amiya had made a promise to her. What a dramatic situation."
Mo Zhi's gaze shifted back to the game.
Meanwhile,
The Reunion forces, who had already retreated, all turned back.
They too had flesh and blood. Frostbone was their brother, and they could not let him be left exposed on the battlefield.
W was also among the returning forces. Her strength was so immense that the Civil Affairs Bureau and Rhodes Island were pushed back steadily.
But she wasn't here to kill.
Instead, she was there to give Amiya a phone call.
Then, she left after dropping a flashbang, making a stylish exit.
Upon receiving the phone, Amiya heard the voice of the person on the other end, it was Misha.
Misha questioned Amiya, why, when he had done nothing wrong, did he suffer such treatment, merely because he was Infected?
This made the viewers' blood pressure skyrocket. He was about to kill Amiya's most important person, and he had done nothing wrong?
Clearly, Misha had become like Frostbone.
She told Amiya that she was Infected, and she would stand with the Infected.
As expected,
Once one has their own stance, other stances become their enemies.
Facing her deceased brother, Misha solidified her resolve.
Alex was dead, but Frostbone might still be alive.
She slowly put on the mask that belonged to Frostbone...
