Why does John go to the moon?

Mencius doesn’t know, Confucius doesn’t know, and Lao Tzu doesn’t know either!

Therefore, players have to go back to a longer timeline, or find the old man's purpose of going to the moon, or implant the psychological suggestion of "going to the moon" into him when he was a child.

In this way, in the timeline of John's old age.

The matter of "going to the moon" became a matter of course.

To do this, they need a "memory fragment", which is a prop that evokes memories and enables timeline retrieval.

"Memory fragments? I only have this..."

As he spoke, Old John picked up an umbrella from the bench and handed it to the two of them.

"This thing..."

Alliance area anchor Ma Chachong took the umbrella from Old John, a little doubtful:

"Can this also be used as a memory fragment?"

Talking.

The horse bug presses the handle.

Buzz——

As the handle vibrated, the umbrella in the game was opened by him.

Then a white light flashed and time went back.

…

[Two years ago, Xiaoxi just passed away from illness]

When the screen returned to normal again, the umbrella was back in Old John's hand again.

At this time, time moved forward a little, and it was drizzling in the sky.

Old John is standing by the lighthouse at the moment, holding an umbrella.

To be more precise, he is holding an umbrella over the tombstone.

His umbrella was tilted towards the tombstone, as if he was afraid that the tombstone would get rained on.

Although most of his body was already wet, he didn't realize it and just muttered to himself.

As the quiet and slightly sad sound of the piano came, Old John's voice seemed slightly hoarse:

"It's all over...Xiaoxi."

"Now, I can take care of her like you do...she will never be alone again."

"Maybe... I will never understand, but I will always be loyal to your wishes."

"Anya will also be grateful to you..."

"But when I leave too,"

"Who will take care of us..."

Having said this, Old John, who was hunched over and looking sad and haggard, sighed.

The rain pattered on his umbrella, making a rhythmic ticking sound.

Seeing this, Ma Chachou walked up and came to Old John:

"Is this...your lover?"

"Who are you?" Due to the time jump forward, Old John at this time still didn't recognize him at all, let alone the matter of 'life reconstruction'.

"My name is Lao Sao," Ma Chachou said, "I am a doctor who is passing by."

"oh……"

Old John nodded, not really, but continued to look at the tombstone, feeling lost:

"She shouldn't have slept here, I mean she couldn't have done this..."

"...Forget it...you won't understand..."

"Because even I often can't understand her..."

Questions like the Riddler linger in the minds of Ma Chachong and all the viewers in the live broadcast room——

What does Old John mean? What does ‘she could have done otherwise’ mean? What does ‘doing so’ mean?

Moreover, before Lao Sao talked to him, who was [Anya] that Old John murmured to himself?

The layers of mysteries and the feeling of being peeled off the cocoon made everyone fully immersed in it, and there was a lively discussion——

'What does Old John mean? He shouldn't be buried here. Does he mean the creek shouldn't be buried here?'

'Where should I be buried?'

'No, I think what the old man means is that Xiaoxi should not have died in the first place'

'hiss--'

'Fuck!'

'Is that... related to [Anya]?'

'Who is [Anya] again? Their child?'

"The old couple has no children. Didn't you see that it was Old John who was taken care of by the nanny in the end?"

'Listen to Old John, they all know this [Anya], and she is someone Xiaoxi cares about very much.'

'Tsk, this is an interesting game. I have to clear it today, otherwise I won't be able to sleep all night.'

'Seconded!'

‘+1+1+1…’

Seeing the encouragement from the audience, Ma Chachong nodded again and again:

"Okay, okay, let's clear it no matter what time it is today, otherwise I won't be able to sleep even if I don't talk to you..."

While talking!

The horseworm is looking for new clues nearby.

And at the top of the lighthouse, he found a familiar object——

Plush platypus doll.

A white light flashed and time went back again.

…

[A few years ago, when Xiao Xi was dying]

This is the first time players see Xiaoxi, John's wife, who has orange-red hair.

At this time, John had not yet moved into the house on the beach.

He was still guarding the critically ill Xiaoxi wholeheartedly.

And the platypus was held in the arms of the stream.

There were still paper rabbits all over the ground.

"...it's enough,"

"Even if you pay for the surgery, you still have more than enough money left, don't worry..."

While talking, John tucked Xiaoxi into bed.

"White lie."

Xiaoxi inexplicably said:

"...That's what you said."

"alright--"

John seemed to show a comforting smile, telling Xiaoxi not to think too much:

"There must be enough money..."

"Okay." Xiaoxi interrupted him: "I don't like you lying, and I don't want to violate my beliefs."

"But we need that money to treat you..."

John's voice was low and seemed to be filled with incomprehensible pain:

"I understand Anya is very important to you, but...but you have gone too far now...she is not even..."

"You know what would make me happy, John?"

Suddenly, Xiaoxi turned his head and looked at John.

"……What?"

"You know, right?"

"..."

Seeing that John was silent for a long time, Xiaoxi's mood seemed to drop.

"...I won't agree to the treatment. We can just keep the money..."

"But if you agree with my ideal, repair that house...and then...take good care of Anya for me."

A moment of silence.

"John?" Xiaoxi's voice sounded again.
