No... blame it!

Lin Luo sighed secretly. Although Reimeng concealed it well, at the moment she turned around, Lin Luo still caught the flash of despair and sadness in her eyes.

Lin Luo has not seen this kind of look, or it can be said that he has seen a lot... Once, when Misaka Mikoto wanted to save Misaka’s sisters but was unable to save, it was this kind of look, when Tosaka Rin remembered the passing When Altria faced Lily’s Knights of the Round Table, she also had this look when she was her parents. When Yuri Nakamura told the story of how her three younger brothers and sisters were killed by the robbers, she still had this look. With such a look.

He knows the meaning of those eyes better than anyone else. Under those eyes, he knows the cry and cry hidden in his heart better than anyone else.

So in an instant, Lin Luo understood what kind of sad soul was hiding under Reimeng’s heartless mask, and how long it was under Reimeng’s attitude of “rejecting people from thousands of miles away”. For that person, even if he knew that it was destined to be just a luxury, he definitely hoped that he wanted to see each other again... the maiden of the first generation!

When he came to the corridor and sat down cross-legged, Lin Luo slowly closed his eyes. He seemed to be able to see that in this small shrine, a maiden took a little girl’s hand, walking and laughing with happiness, and then Still in this shrine, the little girl was sitting alone on the corridor, looking at the stone steps opposite, crying while waiting for the maiden who was doomed to return, her desolation and loneliness.

Opening his eyes, Lin Luo's face was filled with a wry smile, but there was a trace of relief in that wry smile, "The burden on his shoulders is heavier, but...there is another reason for deciding to do it."

Reimu who walked into the kitchen did not come back, but left the shrine and gradually went away. Lin Luo did not stop or catch up, because he knew that no matter what language was for Reimu, she didn’t know where she was going. It doesn't make any sense. Among the things she needs, there is absolutely no option for comfort!

"Father." The girl's crisp voice came from her ears. At this moment when Lin Luo was in a daze, Ming Meng had already opened the door of the compartment at some point, and looked inwardly at this side.

Lin Luo turned his head, smiled slightly, and beckoned to her, "Come here."

Mingmeng smiled and ran up immediately. When he ran to Lin Luo's side, Lin Luo picked her up, put her on his legs, and then put her arms around her body and asked, "Where did you just go? Up?"

"Playing in the house." Ming Meng replied with a smile.

"Have you had lunch?"

"Not hungry." Ming Meng shook his head, then raised his head and asked, "Where is my father?"

"Well, I'm not hungry either." Lin Luo touched her head with a big smile. He is actually very distressed. Although he has decided how to choose between the Great Enchantment and the Miko, he knows that the choice is not just the end, but the beginning, and even this beginning is likely to make everyone fall into absolute Dangerous situation, so even though he had already decided, he still couldn't completely let go of his hands and feet to do it.

He seemed to feel that he was standing on the cusp of the storm, and if he was a little careless, he would fall to pieces, of course, including those connected with him, all would fall.

He knows that this kind of mentality is very bad, but he can't control it. He really can't calm himself down completely. Only at this moment, holding this little guy in his arms, he finally feels a moment of warmth and peace... Because he doesn't need to think too much when getting along with Mingmeng.

"Now, don't call my father anymore, call me father." Lin Luo said.

"Why?" Ming Meng asked curiously.

"...I don't know, maybe I just want to change back to myself."

"Return to yourself?" Ming Meng tilted her head, her face blank, "Isn't the father now the father?"

"Of course it didn't mean it..." Lin Luo felt a little funny, but didn't know how to explain it, so she said, "When you called your mother, did you call it Mother Mother?"

"No, just call mom."

"That's fine, call me Dad later."

"Oh." Ming Meng nodded obediently, seeming to understand.

"Dad, Mom just ran out alone, what did she do?" After a while, Ming Meng asked again, children always talked more about topics.

"Probably a walk."

"Aren't we going?"

"Well, let's stay here if we don't go."

"Why? I don't think mom is in a good mood. If we go together, mom will probably be a little happy."

"Well... how do you say this, everyone has their own secrets, and they also have a side that they don't want to be seen by anyone, even if they are the closest to them, so we just have to wait here. "

"Why?" Ming Meng tilted her head and thought for a while, still a little confused.

Lin Luo was very patient about Mingmeng's sudden incarnation of one hundred thousand whys. He touched her head and smiled: "You may not understand these things now, but you will gradually understand them when you grow up."

"Oh." Ming Meng nodded, as if she had understood it, but she could still tell from her bright eyes that she didn't understand at all.

Mingmeng is a very clever child. What she learns through what she sees and hears is something that many adults can't understand, but after all, she is only a two-year-old child, the most complicated kind of human heart. No matter how smart the world is, it’s impossible to see through it, let alone her.

Mingmeng didn't understand, so naturally she wouldn't go to the horns. After a short silence, she quickly found another topic and said to Lin Luo: "Dad, thank you."

"Huh?" This time Lin Luo was confused by her, "Thank me for what?"

"Because Dad kept the promise and allowed my mother to wake up again, she is a true hero." Ming Meng said innocently, raising her small face, and then kissed Lin Luo on the cheek with a chuckle.

"Uh!"

Lin Luo was taken aback for a moment. It was not Ming Meng's sudden intimacy, but the words hero.

When Reimu died suddenly at that time, in order to comfort Mingmeng and to encourage himself, he did tell Mingmeng that he was a hero, so he must be able to save Reimu, but... he knew that he was nothing. The hero has never been.

At the beginning, in the Forbidden World, in order to save Misaka’s sisters, he fought a battle with one side. He who won the victory became the hero of the sisters’ hearts, but only he knew that he had to fight because he had no choice but to fight. If you act, Mikoto will be in danger. Once Mikoto has an accident, he will not live long... To put it bluntly, everything he does is essentially for himself, although he did save a lot of people.

And then the Moon World, Weapon Race World, Magic Teacher World... He saved many people and became a hero in many people's minds, but he knew that he was not a hero because... rescued Some people don't have any risk, just do it casually, while the other part is involved in his own safety. If he doesn't save, he himself will be in danger.

One is to stand in a safe area to save, which is charity, and the other is to stand in a dangerous area to save, which is self-protection...How can such behavior be considered a hero?

No matter how much he deceives himself, he cannot conceal his display and purpose.

Of course, in the fourth battle of God, he sacrificed his own life to save everyone. At that moment, he truly became a hero for everyone, but...sacrificing some people to save others, this is not saving at all. , Even if the person who sacrificed is himself!

He just let himself get rid of, but left the sadness to the living, such a selfish behavior...

Hero, I am far from worthy of such a name... Lin Luo secretly laughed at himself.

But Ming Meng said that he is a true hero.

Perhaps in Ming Meng's heart, the meaning of the word "hero" is very simple, just because she has done what she hopes but can't do, but this naive remark also represents her deepest expectation.

"Mingmeng." Lin Luo said.

"Ok?"

"What kind of person do you think a hero is?" Lin Luo asked

"He who makes everyone happy." Ming Meng said without hesitation, looking at Lin Luo with the eyes of a hero, full of respect and worship.

"You can be happy... But what if this hero's behavior will put everyone in danger?"

"It doesn't matter, because if it's Dad, it will be successful." Ming Meng's innocent tone is full of seriousness.

"Haha." Lin Luo smiled, a little helpless and free and easy. Ming Meng drew an equal sign between him and the hero, so that when a big hat was smashed down, he really had no retreat.

If he continues to hesitate, then he has lived up to Ming Meng's expectations, if he can't become a hero, then he betrayed Ming Meng's trust... this is unforgivable.

"I really convinced you!" Lin Luo laughed and put Ming Meng up next to him, and he himself stood up from the corridor.

"Dad?" Ming Meng tilted his head, unable to understand Lin Luo's sudden move.

"You are here waiting for my mother to come back. I will leave first." Lin Luo told her, and after finishing speaking, he stepped forward.

"Where is Dad going?" Ming Meng stood there, asking loudly.

Lin Luo kept walking forward, without turning back or hesitating, with a confident and calm smile on his face, slowly stretched out his right hand, pointed at the sky, and said in a very firm tone.

"Go...become a hero!"
