The moon on an autumn night is always clearer than ever, although the more vivid the color, the more lonely it is.It was nearly early in the morning, and apart from the unassuming conversation between me and her, there was only the faint smell of rose incense.She still gave me a glass of orange juice and didn't make tea.A stack of half-new tarot cards, lying in the spread of black cloth.A dim light falls on the back of the card, like a flowing water stain."
I know you're not human, you're a youkai."
Twilight's fingertips twilighted in circles on the cards, and her green eyes shimmered with a broken glow under her lowered eyelashes."
You know I'll come back to you again."
I wasn't surprised at all, and my eyes fell on her cards.Twilight smiled and said without looking up, "The people who come here to find me are people who want help." ”"Am I the one who needs your help, too" I suddenly saw something familiar in Twilight's body, and I remembered the people who kept coming to me, the guys who were eager for my help."
Maybe you are."
Twilight suddenly looked up, her green eyes like a nightmare that wanted to lock people in, "My cards will tell us everything we want to know." ”"I'm not one of those kids."
I politely reminded her.She stopped talking, took the plate, symbolically shuffled the cards, turned over the first one, and said to herself: "At some point, in the past, and even now, you felt like an outcast. ”"I'm not going to pay you for divination."
I shrugged.She didn't answer me and turned over the second card: "I saw you wake up from countless nightmares, panicked, sad and helpless.Sword IX. ”I smiled and shook my head: "Go on." ”She continued to flop the cards, and said without hesitation: "You have tried to cross the river of sorrow in your heart, the other side of the channel of true light, and you have been looking for the man you lost, who has the heart of a lion and the pride of a king.However, your search journey is full of thorns and dangers. ”"Oh," I nodded, "and then, give me a closing remark." ”A weird smile appeared on her lips, and she flipped out the last card, a "Grim Reaper", and pushed it in front of me.On the card, the skeleton standing proudly on the horse, trampling on the living creatures of the ground with great might."
If I were you, I'd seize every minute left."
Every word she uttered was frozen for 10,000 years.The rest of the moment I sneered in my heart.The roof of the room suddenly went out, a wind from out of nowhere rushed towards me and her, and in the darkness, I only heard the sound of the tarot cards on the table clattering and falling to the ground.After two or three seconds, the lights came on, and there was nothing unusual around except for the tarot cards scattered on the ground.There was only one open window, still shaking slightly."
It's windy at night, so you should remember to close the windows."
I winked at her and politely leaned over to pick up the dropped card for her.One, two, my heart briefly tightened when my fingers touched the tarot card that landed at my feet.Straightening up, I handed Twilight a bunch of cards I had picked up, got up and said, "I've been bothering you for so long, sorry, it's late, take my leave." ”Twilight got up to escort me to the door, and there was no sound in his winning steps, and there was always an inexplicable, victorious posture on his face."
Come back when you're free."
She waved at me.I was about to leave, when I suddenly turned around again and gave her a particularly bright smile: "By the way, your closing statement, that Grim Reaper card, you seem to have overlooked a detail. ”"What," she raised an eyebrow."
That Grim Reaper card, when viewed from your position, is upright, a metaphor for death and the end.But in my position, it's reversed. ”I cleared my throat, "If the Positive Grim Reaper is dead, the Reverse Grim Reaper is to put the Grim Reaper to death and live after death. ”I saw Twilight's smile instantly stiffen, because of some kind of malice or unwillingness.This kind of expression really shouldn't appear on someone as beautiful as a fairy like hers."
Speaking of tarot," I winked at her, "my tarot skills may not be below yours. ”I turned away from Twilight, and the red gold peace clasp on my wrist swayed with my hands, making a crisp jingling sound in the silent night t1706231537:
