Chapter 176: Mirror Room

In the dream, Jin Jiuchi felt like he had returned to the previous evening when the cruise ship was still docked on the port. Hundreds of NPCs surrounded him, either hugging or bidding farewell to each other, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere. 

However, amidst the crowd, the little girl stood alone, crying.

Dressed in a pastel blue summer dress with her hair tied in twin ponytails, she appeared to be around Shen Nianzu's age when he disguised himself as a child. Although Jin Jiuchi could not discern her features clearly, he could see her tears falling pitter patter to the ground like a stream of never-ending raindrops. 

Her silhouette looked particularly melancholic and lonesome in the midst of the heart-warming atmosphere, so much that Jin Jiuchi could not resist sneaking a few glances at her.

His heart began to itch and he heard himself saying to Shen Nianzu, "Nian'er, there's a child over there crying. Should we do something?"
