Chapter 24 The Distant Horizon

Since the day when Moment was born, she quickly fell into a deep sleep as soon as she came out of the container.

I don’t know how many days passed,

When she woke up, she was lying on a big soft bed with a plush blanket wrapped around her body.

She felt her body was a little heavy and numb, and she couldn't even turn over.

The images from the past few days have not been completely erased from my mind, making it feel like a nightmare.

As long as you slowly open your eyes, the nightmare will disappear.

Slowly move your stiff thighs all the time and force yourself to sit up from the bed.

Clothes are ready on the bedside table next to you.

It's a set of light-colored underwear and a sleeveless dress.

Always relying on instinct, I picked up the clothes on the cabinet and started wearing them.

While I was concentrating on getting dressed, the door handle of the room began to turn quietly.

A head poked out from the crack in the door. When the visitor saw the scene in the room clearly, he quickly closed the door.

He was always keenly aware of the movement outside the door and stopped what he was doing.

"Is it the master?"

The shoulder straps were not pulled up at all times, so I ran to the door excitedly and tried to push the door open.

"Ahem, put your clothes on first and then come out." The voice outside the door was anxious.

"Well, I understand, Master."

With his innate knowledge, he always wears his clothes obediently.

Finally, the door was opened, and there was a man in a black suit waiting silently against the wall.

Seeing that he was dressed neatly, the man let out a sigh of relief.

"From now on, you can just call me leader. I still can't accept the title 'Master'."

"Really?" The moment seemed a bit down.

"Oh, leader, you have been single for so many years, wouldn't it be great to have a little girl call you master?" A man with a frivolous behavior appeared behind the leader.

"No one else can be as perverted as you, [Ghost Card], you unscrupulous leftover man."

"What do you know? This is the desire and pursuit of love." said the man whose codename was [Ghost Card].

The leader didn't take care of the [ghost card] and just walked past him without notice.

"Alas, the leader has changed." Guipai sighed resentfully.

He followed the leader to the restaurant.

The round table in the restaurant is filled with a dazzling array of breakfast items, making you drool with envy all the time.

"Now, you must be starving, these are all prepared for you."

Before the leader could finish speaking, he rushed to the dining table, grabbed a piece of cake, and bit into it without any etiquette.

When he was a child, he always had white skin, a pair of pink eyes with naturally white pupils, long black hair, and a few light freckles on his face.

The leader sat silently on a chair aside, waiting for the moment to finish eating.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, the leader walked out of the headquarters and went to the business district for a whole day.

The next day, noon.

Creation Agency Headquarters, Laboratory Zero.

The leader opened the hatch of the laboratory. There were more than a dozen staff members in the laboratory who were engaged in research on creation.

Everyone's attention was focused on the parts and tools in front of them, and they did not notice the arrival of the leader at all.

"Hey, everyone, please stop what you are doing. I have something to tell you." The leader stopped what they were doing.

"Well, isn't this the leader? [Ghost Card] has already told us what you want to say." A voice came from the crowd.

"Congratulations, leader, for successfully developing a humanoid girl who truly has a soul." said a researcher in the laboratory.

"Thank you for your support." The leader thanked every researcher in the laboratory one by one.

For civil organizations that grow in adversity, every researcher is the pillar on which the spirit of the creation mechanism depends for its survival.

Gratitude in this sense is a customary etiquette that has long been formed.

"However, although it has been successfully researched, it is still a bit troublesome." The leader scratched his head helplessly, "Although she has the body of a girl close to eighteen years old, her mind is only about ten years old. It seems that she has no control in this aspect.

good."

"It's okay, the leader can create a humanoid girl, which is already very impressive." A researcher said.

"Stop flattering me. You must behave in a civilized manner in the future, and don't lead her astray." The leader roared seriously.

"Yes, leader, we understand." The researchers straightened their backs and responded in unison.

The leader looked around, took a look at everyone's achievements, then turned and left.

The laboratory door slowly closed automatically.

As soon as the leader left, the researchers in the laboratory started a chattering discussion.

"Since the birth of the humanoid girl, the leader seems to have changed into a different person."

"Yes, but I like the current leader better. He looks domineering."

"Alas, the leader actually withstood the temptation and treated the humanoid girl as his own daughter. It seems that we are totally out of luck."

"It's true that a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory. You kid...what do you think about all day long?"

Two hours later.

Taking the intercity subway, the leader brought time to the suburban plains of the capital.

It is the only undeveloped natural grassland in the technologically advanced future city of Kerno City.

Melody Planet people can enjoy the natural scenery of blue sky, white clouds, green grass and flowers here.

Behind the grassland are endless high-rise buildings, guarding it silently like a group of loyal knights.

Always looking at the grass curiously, reaching out to touch the lush grass, like a child discovering a new toy.

The leader followed Shi Ji quietly, staring at Shi Ji nervously, fearing that something might happen to her.

This afternoon, I always wore two double ponytails, a black suspender skirt, and a pair of Mary Jane shoes.

Looks very young and cute.

The sky gradually turned dark, and the distant sky glowed with an orange-red sunset.

The leader spoke first: "Moment, I'm sorry. I created you without authorization."

"Master, what are you talking about? You gave me precious life. Everything I have belongs to you."

"Jiji, although you have an appearance close to adulthood, you are still a reckless child at heart." The leader said to Jiji.

He lowered his head in frustration all the time, "Does the master think that I am annoying, or do I still have the inability to judge right from wrong?"

"You must always remember that people will grow up only after experiencing certain things. This should also apply to you as a humanoid girl."

"Although I am not good at dealing with people, I will definitely teach you basic common sense." The leader looked at the moment solemnly.

"Since the master said so..." Moment raised his head again.

"Perhaps this is also a kind of redemption." The leader said openly, "However, I will not regret spending my whole life to create you."

"Then I have a master like you, and I don't regret it." He always looked at the leader.

The leader smiled knowingly at her.

"Moment, can you see that line?" The leader stretched out his right hand and pointed to the red clouds in the distance. "That's the horizon."

"Horizon?" He always showed doubts.

"That's the dividing line between the ground and the sky, that's also the dividing line between the past and the future, and the present is right in the middle between the past and the future." The leader felt the sunset comfortably while looking at the horizon.

A clock faintly flashed in Moment's eyes.

She was stunned for a moment, wiped her eyes, and looked towards the distant [horizon].
