In the control center on the 100th floor of the Game Command Company headquarters building, Tiandis is checking a piece of information, mainly about the changes in magic concentration in various regions of Eden over the past hundred years. Based on this, she will formulate
Next step plan. The realistic girl queen always likes to plan things in an orderly manner and then execute them step by step. This is determined by the rigorous and serious side reflected in her character. She is not like someone who just does whatever they want.
, do whatever comes to mind, without any rules.
Last time, Tiandis asked her for a detailed report on the population changes of the mortal race over the past hundred years. The guy pulled his face on the spot and acted reluctantly, as if what Tiandis wanted her to write was actually
It was not a report, but a suicide note. Although she finally handed it in, Tiandis knew very well that she must have secretly asked Heaven for help and asked her to ghostwrite it.
The silver-haired girl, who looks taciturn but actually really wants to be recognized by others, always puts herself in the position of her younger sister. She never refuses her sister's requests, and she can't even think of a reason to refuse.
If this continues, Alice will lead her into trouble sooner or later!
Tiandis had already turned the report to the last page. The dense data and complex formulas above were memorized by just a glance. When she closed the report, she already had a general idea in her mind. She raised her head,
Just as he was about to ask for more information from the heavens to improve his idea, he found that the girl seemed a little absent-minded. Although her hands kept moving, she was still swiping up and down in the void, bringing up more virtual light screens and surrounding herself.
Surrounded, but his attention was obviously not on the information displayed on the light screen. Instead, he raised his head and glanced in the direction of the door from time to time, and then quickly looked back, giving people a feeling of guilty conscience.
Tiandis was slightly startled. She rarely saw Tianjie being distracted. Perhaps only when the two of them first cooperated, because her mother left Eden and she was not familiar with the job, she was occasionally distracted.
Although Tiandis discovered this situation at the time, she didn’t know what to do. After all, she was not very good at comforting others, and her relationship with heaven was not that good. If it was Alice, of course she could
He pointed at her nose and scolded her to make her wake up, but in the face of a girl who was deeply saddened by the loss of her mother, how could she be scolded without any reason?
So this situation lasted for a long time. It wasn't until Tianjie caused a major mistake that Tiandis found an opportunity and taught her a lesson in a stern tone. Afterwards, he even gave her a jar of candy. Finally,
It brought the girl back from that sad and negative mood. Since then, she has not been distracted at work. Sometimes she is even more serious and focused than Tiandis, as if she wants to put everything into her work.
She devoted her mind and heart to her work, forcing herself to forget the sadness caused by her mother's departure. Her persistence even made people a little uneasy, so much so that Tiandis had to hold her behind to let her take a breath occasionally.
Don't push yourself too hard.
Alice may have noticed this, so when she returned to the Temple of Heaven several times, she would force the girl to go to the game museum on the 99th floor to play games with her and relax. As for why she had to
Play games to relax, not through other means... Seeing that the effect was obvious and Tianjie's character was becoming more and more cheerful, Tiandis turned a blind eye and didn't care about her little selfishness.
However, could I be too indulgent to her? I actually transmitted my bad habits to Tianjie and taught her to become a bad boy who would desert at work... Alice, you deserve death!
Tiandis did not hesitate to blame all the faults on Alice. After all, her character was fully worthy of the suffering she suffered.
Since the girl was just a victim, Tiandis did not intend to teach her a lesson like last time, but asked in a calm tone: "What's on your mind, Tianjie?"
"Ugh!"
Tianjie, who was caught on the spot for deserting, had a rare expression of shame and panic on her little face. Her eyes were wandering and she looked around. She didn't know whether she should tell her the truth, because someone who sneaked in from the door was trying desperately to
Use your eyes to hint that you should not speak out.
One side is his sister, and the other side... is also his sister. Heaven is in a dilemma, not knowing how to choose.
But after seeing her tangled little expression, Tiandis seemed to understand something for a moment, and said thoughtfully: "Don't you want to say it? Or can't you say it? Let me guess, is some idiot threatening you?
, so that you are not allowed to tip me off? By the way, let me guess again, that fool is... right behind me, right?"
After saying that, she raised her left hand, clasped her middle finger with her thumb, turned around and flicked it without hesitation, and hit the attacker on the forehead with perfect accuracy, making a crisp sound. Alice was in pain after the attempted attack.
With a cry, he staggered back two steps. The area on his forehead that was hit by the bullet had turned red. Tianjie couldn't bear to see it, so he looked away, thinking: That must be very painful, right?
Alice also felt very painful, so she covered her forehead and glared at Tiandis: "What are you doing, Tiandis? How dare you sneak attack me!?"
Even Tiandis was amused by her shameless act of biting back: "I should be the one to ask you what you are doing, Alice? You dare to sneak up on me with such a little trick, you look down on me too much, and you think too highly of me.
By yourself. Or do you want to go back to the old days, when you were chased all over the place by me after you made a mistake? At that time, your mother was still protecting you, but now that your mother is gone, I would like to see you.
How will you escape?"
She sneered and flashed her intimidating fists intentionally or unintentionally.
When she said this, some unbearable black history suddenly appeared in Alice's mind. She shuddered suddenly and realized that she seemed to be the one who was wronged. She quickly pretended to cough twice and cleared her throat.
, said righteously: "As a human being, you can't always be immersed in memories. The most important thing is to look forward, so don't mention the past things anymore and let them go with the wind."
"What an open-minded mentality." Tiandis sneered: "I don't know when you became a philosopher."
"I already have been!"
"hehe."
Tianjie looked at the sneering Tiandis on the left and the furious Alice on the right. There was a curious look in the depths of his seemingly indifferent eyes. Of course, he was not interested in their quarrel. In fact, this was already
It was a common thing for her. Generally speaking, it was Alice who took the initiative to stir up trouble. Of course, she was often the one who suffered in the end. In Tiandis's words, she was just so idle that her bones were itchy and she just looked for trouble.
What she was really interested in was the story about the past that was inadvertently revealed in the conversation between Tiandis and Alice.
Before she was born, the story of the goddess, Tiandis and Alice living together in this heavenly temple had a very subtle attraction for her that made her want to know more about it.
She asked curiously: "Did Alice often make mistakes in the past?"
"Of course." Tiandis's slender eyebrows raised slightly, just like her character, she was direct and sharp, not giving Alice any face: "She used to be much more frivolous than she is now. She doesn't sit in the room playing games all day long.
, even if she sneaks out to play, she doesn't even pay attention to the tasks assigned to her by her mother. She often causes troubles, so that my mother and I have to work hard to help her clean up the mess. Tianjie, you see, you don't know,
On the day Mother introduced you to us, she actually sneaked out to play. I told her at that time that if she continued to be so playful, Mother would sooner or later let someone else replace you."
Perhaps because of long-standing grievances, Tiandis seldom said many words, especially those involving heaven, which made the little girl open her mouth slightly. She did not expect that such a thing would happen.
Tiandis gloated again: "She also swore that she loved mother the most and would never let anyone else replace her. But as soon as she entered the office, she saw you, with that surprised and nervous expression on her face.
I still remember it now. But to be honest, I do think you are more suitable to be the young queen than Alice. How about you, do you want to consider it? Heavenly Realm..."
"Wow!" Alice interrupted Tiandis's voice with a dance: "Don't say it, don't say it! It's been so long, why do you have to remember it so clearly? Besides, it's just the past that was immature.
It’s just a small mistake I made during the period. I am not what I used to be today. Tiantis, if you always look at things with the old eyes, you will suffer big losses one day!”
At the end of the story, Alice herself believed this rhetoric. She raised her chin and looked at Tiandis with a proud look on her face, with an expression that said, "I just didn't take it seriously, but once I got serious, even I would be shocked." In view of this
She really likes to come into contact with those weird fantasy works in the earth world. Tiandis has no doubt that the next second she will pop out of her mouth something like "Thirty years in the east of the river and thirty years in the west of the river. Don't bully the poor girl."
Weird stories, if they were from heaven, she would be very interested in them, but she lacked interest in them, so she just waved her hands casually and said lazily: "In that case, I have a question that I would like to ask the grown-up Miss Alice.
, why do you, who should be performing your duties on the mainland, stay in the Temple of Heaven? If I remember correctly, you have been here for almost half a month, right? Let me guess, yes
Has your position been lost on the continent? Or does it mean that mortal civilization no longer needs your guidance?"
"Uh!" Alice's expression froze, and then her eyes wandered. She didn't dare to look at Tiandis, and just defended herself hesitantly: "This, this, of course there is a reason, I have something very important.
I have something to do, so I stayed in the Heavenly Temple. Isn’t it a dereliction of duty?”
"The important thing you mentioned is playing games, right?"
"Absolutely not!"
This time, Alice answered confidently, because it was indeed not the case.
Her original intention of staying in the Heavenly Temple was to provide cover for her friends, including Nigflame, and to mediate during their negotiations with Tiandis, so that the negotiations would not break down so quickly.
——In other words, the breakdown should not be so ugly. As for the success of the negotiation and the possibility of Tiandis relenting, she has not considered it at all.
The strange thing is that half a month has passed since she left the Dragon King City Idolia and returned to the Heavenly Temple. Why is there no movement at all from Negflem and the others? It’s because the matter is so big that it requires
Did they repeatedly discuss the decision, or did they simply give up after losing their own support? If so, they should at least inform themselves, right?
Alice probed in a subtle way: "Well, let me ask, just asking. I have no other meaning. Don't get me wrong...that is, has anyone come to see you recently, Tiandis?"
"have."
"who!?"
"A very boring guy."
Tiandis looked at Alice sideways, and the meaning was already obvious.
I-I tolerate it!
For the sake of her friends, Alice decided to swallow her breath.
Tiandis felt that she was a little weird today, but he didn't take it to heart. He just asked casually: "How long do you plan to stay here, Alice?"
Alice squeezed out a sentence with a smile: "Stay until I want to leave, what, can't you?"
This is my home! I can treat myself however I want!
Tiandis glanced at her and said sullenly: "What about your job? As a leader and representative of civilization, you refuse to go deep into civilization. Instead, you play games in the distant Temple of Heaven. If your mother
I found out about this when I came back... hum."
Maybe you really have to find someone else to replace you!
"Absolutely, absolutely impossible!" Alice heard the implication of her words and was startled in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm on the surface: "The current state of mortal civilization is very stable. I am only leaving for a short time, and nothing will happen.
What's the matter? Besides, who said that if I stay in the Temple of Heaven, I will only be able to play games? Can't I work here?"
"Indeed." Tiandis nodded, agreeing with her statement for the first time. For some reason, Alice suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Since you are so concerned about the mission, I can't stop you." Tiandis showed her a sinister smile: "I happen to be tired and want to go back to rest. I will leave the control center to you for the time being. You have to work hard.
Oh, Alice."
Before Alice could object, she turned back and asked her other sister: "Tianjie, how are you? Do you need a rest?"
The silver-haired girl shook her head silently. She didn't need to rest. This was not because she was trying to be brave, but because Tiandis had set a strict schedule for her, which kept her full of energy. As for Tiandis' need to rest, this was also
This is not an excuse she used to fool Alice, but because she really needs a rest. After all, she has been working here without sleep for half a month, which means she has not left since Alice came back, even if there is no physical problem.
, it is inevitable to be mentally tired.
"Okay, then you can stay here to assist Alice in her work." Tiandis yawned, ignored Alice's resentful expression, and walked out of the control center, waving lazily to the two of them.
Farewell: "I'll go back and take a nap first. Remember to keep an eye on her and don't let her sneak out to play games?"
Seeing her back gradually disappearing from sight, and finally disappearing completely, Tianjie and Alice retracted their gazes at the same time, and then looked at each other, looking at each other.
After a while, Alice asked tentatively: "How about we also..."
"Alice," Tianjie interrupted her calmly: "It's time for you to work."
