"From what you're saying...you actually feel quite conflicted. On one hand, you admire and worship VV, yet you repeatedly say you dislike him, and when you bring him up, you seem vaguely angry. You describe his cold farewell...could it be that he left you behind when you were eleven and ran off by himself?"
"You're spot on," CC chuckled:
"It's exactly as you guessed. I'm starting to doubt that you two are different people. Just like you said, VV had meant to tell me the safe's code, but he ultimately didn't... Even though I cried and clung to his clothing, refusing to let him leave, even begging him to take me with him, he still mercilessly left me in the wilderness and went away."
"Do you hate him?" Lin Xian asked.
"It's hard to say," CC admitted:
"After all, it's just a memory fragment that isn't mine, a life I didn't live. The little girl VV abandoned wasn't me. But sometimes I can empathize. How could he be so heartless and leave behind an eleven-year-old girl?"
