Page Ten: Formal Explanation about the Bookmark
“Mommy is here~ Give me a hug… Mwah… Tsk! What am I thinking!”
I threw the body’s head back onto the pillow and covered my face, crouching aside.
Please forgive me for doing such a perverted thing. After all, I’m also a tragic cup who lacked maternal love since childhood…
Even after doing this, I couldn’t feel any maternal love. After all, maternal love isn’t something like a breast wash cream.
With a hollow heart, I wiped the name off the bookmark, and my consciousness began to return to my body.
When I woke up again…
Damn, why am I back in the hospital ward? It seems this was another dream created by Master Hālìlùyà.
“Cháng Kǎi girl, you’re having fun, aren’t you?”
A childish voice came from the door of the ward. Today, the white-haired loli was wearing a white coat that almost touched the ground. She wore a white shirt and black pants underneath. To look more like a doctor, she not only wore glasses but also held a medical chart and had a pen clipped to her left chest pocket, looking like a capable female doctor.
You’re the one having the most fun! Every time you appear, you play dress-up!
I reached out to touch her head, but she slapped my hand away.
“You’re getting more and more disrespectful. Can you just casually touch my head?”
I rubbed my reddened hand, pouting, “But Master, you always dress so cutely, I can’t help it…”
And the soft hair of the loli master felt quite comfortable to touch.
“Even if you can’t help it, you have to. Last time, I didn’t have time to explain… girl, don’t you think your outfit is a bit dangerous?”
She glanced at my chest where the patient gown was tight, and when I looked down, I saw the white skin peeking through the buttons. No wonder I felt so suffocated. (No bra)
“…”
“Do you understand how I feel now, cow girl?”
Why did the nickname change too?
But indeed, this outfit wasn’t quite right. Since I haven’t mastered controlling dreams, I could only ask Master for help.
“Good Master, I want to change into something more conservative~”
“No problem.”
Master snapped her fingers silently… she seemed to be bad at this.
There was a dull thud on my body, and a puff of white smoke rose.
The white smoke dissipated, and my patient gown turned into a white dress with a collar, tied with a black ribbon. It was unexpectedly retro.
Short sleeves with silk gloves revealed a piece of arm, and there was even an elastic rope around the waist for cinching. Although it was just decorative, it made the chest look even larger due to the cinching effect.
The length of the skirt was unclear, but at least when I crossed my legs, I couldn’t see my feet anymore.
If not for the collar, this dress would look like a wedding dress.
“Tsk tsk, ‘People rely on clothes, horses rely on saddles, dogs with bells run faster.’ This saying does have some truth.”
Satisfied with her work, Master Hālìlùyà nodded confidently.
“Now, Cháng Kǎi girl looks like a noble lady.”
If I could choose, I’d prefer to wear ordinary clothes. Being called a noble lady is still too much for me.
Even if I were a girl, I wouldn’t suit such luxurious dresses. After all, I grew up in a village, lacking the inner charm of a noblewoman.
After all the commotion, it’s time to get back to the main topic.
“Master came today to find the reason for the bookmark malfunction, right?”
In the dream, there was no effect, and in reality, only the clone had consciousness. This should not align with Master’s original intention.
Since it was created to allow both Xiǎo Lěi and Zhào Zhào to exist simultaneously, having only one side with consciousness would be meaningless.
“You got half of it right.”
After changing out of the patient gown, not only did I feel relieved, but without the distraction of the chest, even Master breathed a sigh of relief. She jumped lightly onto the bed and sat beside me.
“I came here specifically for the bookmark issue, but the bookmark itself is not faulty. The problem lies with you, Cháng Kǎi girl.”
I raised an eyebrow. How could the blame be shifted onto me?
“Don’t doubt it. Let me explain.”
She clapped her hands together, and when she opened them again, a piece of blue putty appeared in her palm.
“For example, a person’s soul is like putty, and the body is the container. Only when the soul is placed in the container can a complete person be formed.” And the soul changes according to the influence of the body, becoming different people?
Then, she squeezed the putty hard, splitting it into two pieces.
“Like this, if I place these two pieces of soul into two containers, what do you think will happen?”
She threw the question at me, as if expecting an answer.
“It… will become two independent individuals?”
“No, you’re just answering based on the expected effect of the bookmark. Actually, doing this would result in one consciousness controlling two bodies. Even if the soul is split into two parts, it remains the same consciousness.”
The same consciousness?
That would be terrible. Whether it’s Zhào Zhào’s or Xiǎo Lěi’s consciousness, it would be terrible either way.
If it’s Zhào Zhào’s consciousness, then Xiǎo Lěi’s body would become a victim of his madness, leading to scenes of an R18 book.
If it’s Xiǎo Lěi’s consciousness, then Zhào Zhào’s body would turn into a gay who likes me! A 190 cm tall girlfriend, how could I handle that?
“But the bookmark I made doesn’t work like that! It’s not just about creating a body and splitting half the soul!”
The loli master put her hands on her hips, proudly puffing out her tiny chest. “I severed the connection between the two souls, so the same soul gives rise to two different consciousnesses, achieving the ultimate effect of dividing one person into two.”
It’s like running two systems on one computer at the same time.
“In the end, it’s still one person, right?”
“That’s right, and they share a life-or-death relationship. If one dies, the other will die too. Unfortunately, I can’t solve this problem. After all, life is full of risks, and doubling the risk after splitting into two is normal.”
“If the clone receives a fatal injury and erases its name before dying, can the soul still return to the original body?”
“You always try to find loopholes.”
Not said in a scolding tone, she reshaped the putty into a ball and threw it back to me.
“You’re right. The clone’s soul can return, but the original body must be nearby. If the distance is too far, the soul will dissipate before returning. In that case, the remaining soul will dissipate eventually. Each soul dissipates at a different rate, but within ten meters is safe.”
I was startled. After all, I’ve used it three times, and fortunately, I always erased the name near the original body.
“That’s not right. What you said doesn’t match my experience at all.”
“I told you, it’s entirely your problem!”
She clapped her hands again, this time opening her palm to reveal a yellow transparent rubber ball.
“You’re unique. Other people’s souls are like putty, but yours is this. It can’t be shaped or dispersed.”
“Why is my soul a rubber ball that can’t be separated?”
“I’m not sure either. It might be because you’re a divine apprentice being tested by Heavenly Path. There may be some protective strategy for your soul.”
She threw the rubber ball forcefully into the empty ward, bouncing around and finally hitting the ceiling and bouncing back to hit her forehead, causing her to cry out in pain and tears to well up in her eyes.
“We are in a dream located within your Sea of Knowledge. Your current form is merely a projection of your soul. Since your soul cannot be separated, it naturally won’t have an effect in the dream.”
She swept her bangs aside, pointing to the bump on her forehead, indicating that the Sea of Knowledge is here.
I wanted to rub that bump for her.
“In reality, because my soul cannot be separated, the bookmark-created body simply absorbed my entire soul, which is why the original body became a vegetative state.”
“Exactly, you understood quickly. Similarly, because a person’s soul resides in the Sea of Knowledge, when the clone touches the forehead of the original body, it temporarily restores the connection between the souls, unifying the consciousness and sharing memories.”
The body is like a mobile suit, the Sea of Knowledge is the cockpit, and the soul is the pilot. Forehead touching is like New Type’s naked drifting.
“That’s all about the bookmark, Cháng Kǎi girl. Do you have any more questions?”
“No, this bookmark is amazing~”
“After all, it’s a divine artifact made by me~”
“Master is so awesome!”
Patting her head, the soft fur feels excellent.
“Hehe.”
She laughed痴痴地笑了两声，随即反应过来，打掉了我的爪子。
凶道：”说了别摸老夫的头啊！”
