On her eighth birthday, Alice received a birthday present from her cousin, a rabbit doll.

Now her teddy bear has company.

But as Alice grew up, her father's alcoholism gradually increased.

At first, it was just cursing and smashing things, but it gradually turned into beating. Little Alice and her mother suffered a lot.

When she was ten years old, her cousin's family discovered the wounds on Alice and her mother and chose to call the police, but she was scolded by her mother for being nosy. The police from the Northern New Land Region came to see that their family had the same caliber, and they all said that the car overturned and fell. No longer in charge.

Because of cooperating with her parents to lie, little Alice got a new doll, Duck Duck.

Asking Li Le to say that this cooperating lie is really stupid. But considering that Alice is only ten years old now, it is barely understandable.

And even if she doesn't cooperate, her parents will settle the matter, right?

Li Le remembers that the Northern New Land region has always been the place with the most and the strongest privileged classes in the world. This is a legacy left over from the pre-United Nations era.

——

"Li Le and Xiao Ai haven't woken up yet?" Outside the dream, the girls gathered to block the Mad Hatter and Copperfield.

The crystal wings behind the little fish spread out, and countless rays of light shone on the little bear, repairing its body.

This ability to repair seems to be a conceptual fix. Filled with a dreamy feeling that I wondered what would happen. These abilities are seriously against the rules of physics, or rather, against the rules of physics on the surface.

The deepest rules, strictly speaking, cannot be violated. Because rules are a feature of the world, breaking a set of rules is equivalent to applying a deeper set of rules. Also, no rule is a rule.

"Hehehe, interesting." Copperfield looked around, then looked behind him. The top powerhouses from all sides of the human race are slowly approaching.

Then, it's time to retreat.

The illusion master disappeared before everyone's eyes. He appeared in the distance to join his last card, Franklin.

After swallowing an unknown number of souls, Franklin, who had lost his main consciousness at this time, fought with Alice's duck doll for a long time in an inconspicuous place outside Utopia. After Copperfield joined, Duck Ya was subdued almost instantly.

The dolls really work hard to protect their masters.

Behemoth was already close to the edge of the dream. It opened its big mouth and wanted to eat Alice's dream, but saw the rabbit doll drew a hole in front of it, and punched Behemoth with its fist sticking out of it.

and it didn't help. But really the only thing it can do.

In the dream, the unicorn found that the wall in front of him was melting. It's a little lost, and it doesn't seem to know whether to be happy or worried.

It was less than half an hour since Li Le entered the core dream. Of course, he himself thought it had been a long time.

The flow of time is obviously different, and of course, it doesn't really stay next to Alice for five years. Only her key memories are displayed in front of Li Le's eyes.

Since the alarm incident, the Alice family and the cousin's family have gradually become estranged.

Of course, that's a matter of parents, and little Alice often sneaks out to play with her cousin. Now she is in elementary school and her cousin is in junior high school. Li Le could see the familiar feeling from the facial features of the two.

This cousin has many similarities with Captain Bess, both in character and appearance.

"Well... I think she will be willing to recognize your sister." Li Le touched his chin. Continue to follow Alice.

What happened next made him feel a little familiar.

Alice goes to high school. My cousin, who is close to graduating from university, came to a school as an English teacher.

Her father's business failed. There is a huge gap in funding. The creditor was willing to lend him money, on the premise that he would deliver the little beauty Alice from his family to him.

Apparently, Alice's father agreed.

Her mother also agreed. But Alice disagreed, so she went to another city to seek refuge with her cousin.

The People's Federation's protection of children's rights is fairly reliable, and it is impossible for her parents to force Alice to go back. It can only be scolding people in front of the cousin's door.

"Tsk." Li Le was so angry that he wanted to hit someone, but he couldn't affect the dream.

Alice hugged the bear cub crying in the room.

Li Le sat beside her and gave her a false hug.

At that time, Alice must have wished to have someone by her side, right? In other words, look at the time, the end of the world is almost here.

In order to comfort little Alice, the cousin gave her another unicorn doll. Well, it feels like little Alice likes dolls for the same reason that Li Le likes lollipops - these are the only things that can comfort them when they are sad and scared.

Just as Li Le thought, when Alice was in her third year of high school, the end of the world came.

There are countless lost people, aliens, brain eaters, and various dreams unique to the New World in the city. The order is completely broken.

Alice was lucky. She and her cousin killed several brain eaters, gained spiritual power, and possessed some magical souls.

Together, they explore a dream, and in the dream, dolls bear and dolls rabbits gain magical powers.

Alice, who gradually became stronger, began to protect her cousin and classmates.

Even from Li Le's point of view, Alice who reached level six in the early days of the apocalypse was not bad. It should be said that in the second year of the end of the world, the seventh level is very strong. Except for the official people who have been preparing since the end of the world, few people have reached this level.

The eighth level only started to increase slowly in the last three years. The ninth grade is five or six years old. As for the tenth level, there is only one in the eighth year of the end of the world.

But this kind of strength is still not enough to protect everyone in the apocalypse.

Or in any case it's not enough.

"Sister Alice." Ellie, a little girl with blond hair like Alice who lost her parents, leaned in front of her: "You're back."

My cousin came over and picked up little Ellie, rubbing her hair: "Why didn't you call me first?"

"Hey hey hey." Little Ellie tried to pass the level, hugging her cousin's head and rubbing her head, "I like Sister Mia the most."

"What about me?" Alice came over and asked little Ellie.

For a time, the little girl was in a dilemma and at a loss.

Li Le looked at this warm scene and sighed, he estimated that the ending of this story would not be very good.

It should even be said that it would be cruel. This little Ellie, and that cousin Mia. Most likely he will die... and the people around him, Li Le has not seen a single impression. Explain that in the utopian era, they are all gone.

"Ugh."

I don't know if it was Li Le or Alice's lament, which sounded in the room.

A shark doll was swimming above the two of them, turning over from time to time, looking anxious.

In the next room, the glass jars shattered one by one, and the people inside Alice hated woke up from their dreams with blank eyes.
