(Continued) The story of a fool and DNF has a perfect ending

The fool was truly desperate, because everything he had done over the past two years was all for the child! To buy fashion for the child, the child had worked overtime countless times and was scolded by the boss countless times. The persistent fool never thought about giving up. The reason he topped up so many Q coins for the child was so he could buy the fashion she liked. Because the fool doesn't understand more than the child does, the amount of Q coins goes from dozens to hundreds, hundreds and then thousands! The value of thousands of Q coins is basically everything to the fool. The idiot quit his job and is bedridden every day. Why did the child treat me like that? What did I do wrong? Was it because I didn't protect her well enough, or was the fashion I bought for her not pretty enough... The fool sinks into descent every day, gradually losing his original passion for life. The child is completely moved by the fool, and every day she revisits the element where she used to level up with the fool, hoping he will come online. How she wishes the fool would kindly say to her, 'Child, I'll protect you, you fall behind!' But after waiting again and again, only disappointment remains. The child repeatedly collapses on the computer keyboard, crying uncontrollably, feeling she hasn't cherished this bond and hating her own actions even more... Because someone has given so much to her, the child starts acting like a fool by leading people there every day without taking money, as long as the newbie gives her the strawberries dropped from the tree. The child seems to be atoning by helping her collect strawberries every day, hoping that one day she can meet the fool again! The girl was online every day, sending messages to Master but never replying even once. Every time, all she saw was Master's gray avatar! The girl never forgot to test Master's space every day, hoping that one day Master could see—the disciple wanted to see Master! Every day, the girl looked at the edited photos taken during the video call with Master, and every time she couldn't help but shed tears. The girl didn't want to give up like that. Even without the child, Master could still have herself! So she helped the fool collect strawberries. Again, bringing people was free, just the strawberries dropped by beginners were much better than before. Every day, she tirelessly shared her tips on playing the game with newcomers, while reminding them not to get addicted to the game—healthy gaming, and to enjoy life! She created a guild specifically for collecting strawberries, called 'Strawberry's Waiting~ Fool.' The guild was newly established, and since everyone had heard the Fool's story to some extent, many people came to the guild, hoping to become members and help him collect strawberries long-term! Among these people, a large portion were those who had helped her! With the guild, collecting strawberries became much easier. Every day, people came here to give away strawberries in an endless stream, and some even bought strawberries with RMB to give them to her. Everyone just hoped the Fool would be moved and come back soon! The number of strawberries went from 10,000 to 20,000, from 20,000 to 30,000, from 30,000 to... And so, the number of strawberries kept climbing!Until one day, during a thorough inspection, the DNF network monitoring team discovered that a group of DNF players' accounts had stockpiled large quantities of strawberries used to restore player health. The team members were puzzled—who would bother to farm servers with such low-level health replenishments? They never imagined that thousands of players had donated them together. So these accounts they considered abnormal violated the player game conventions and were banned. Soon, the announcement posted a list of accounts that had been banned, and the girl's accounts and the accounts where strawberries were hoarded were all vivid in her memory! At that moment, the girl was in utter pain—why had her account been shut down? She hadn't used hacking to gain illegal profits! At the same time, the girl's accomplices saw the announcement and were furious. So on the day of the Expo opening ceremony, they held a rally on the same channel. Everyone started using server speakers and said the same message: We have not violated the game convention, we have not used any illegal hacker links, we are all for our shared dream! And so, everyone shouted together, hoping Tencent could distinguish right from wrong! Because there were so many speakers flooding the server and they were all on the same channel, some players occasionally disconnected due to slow internet speeds! This server anomaly drew close attention from the network monitoring team. After reviewing stories about fools, they conducted online investigations of some players, and only then did the team realize—so that's how it is! The team reported the incident, and the Prime Minister's office was instantly in an uproar. Everyone was worried about the impact of the incident. In the end, the director of Tencent's news department decided to turn this shocking story into the media and mobilize the whole society to awaken the fool! At the same time, Tencent's top media executive apologized to all DNF players and called on everyone to join the 'Find Fool' campaign! In no time, major well-known websites nationwide, blogs, newspapers, and radio stations... all covered the fool's story as front-page headlines! The fool's story became a hot topic of conversation during daily conversation! The child had known about this for a long time but hesitated, wanting to join the girl's search for the fool, but felt guilty because it was she who made the fool leave! She regretted it deeply, until one day, the girl was invited to appear on Tencent TV for a themed event called "Fool, We Need You." On the show, the girl called out: Actually, there are three of us together. I hope my friend 'child' can come back and join us... The child completely loses his last mental defenses, finds the girl, and joins their team! Meanwhile, the incident reaches a climax. Back to the fool's side: having lost interest in gaming, he works hard. He finds a food delivery job and comes home late every day! Now, the fool gradually understands that he must live for himself! Instead of living in virtual games every day!Things finally took a turn for the better. Once, by chance, Fool was delivering food for others as usual. On the way home, a gust of wind blew a newspaper into the front wheel of Fool's bicycle. Fool pulled it out, glanced at it, and threw it into the trash. Not ten steps later, a thought flashed in Fool's mind: the word 'Fool'—wasn't that what the child called me? Wasn't that what my apprentice called me? So Fool turned back, found the newspaper from just now, and trembled with both hands, eyes growing wetter as he read! Suddenly, Fool tore the newspaper to pieces and turned to leave. Impossible, the child is too indifferent to me; she simply doesn't like me! I refuse to believe it! Back at home, until bedtime, Fool kept thinking about what he had just seen, recalling the words, 'Fool, come back! We need you!' And so, Fool dozed off in a haze. The next day, Fool delivered food as usual. This time, the bike was loaded with food. As he left, the boss reminded him to be careful. Just ten steps out, as he was getting ready to go, he heard someone at the newsstand next to the restaurant say: 'Come buy the paper! Fool has been found! Fool has been found! He's still alive! Buy the paper…' Fool froze. So it was true, really true? No way—I am the Fool, the only Fool, I will never let anyone else pretend to be me! Just then, the boss came over, asking why he hadn't set off yet. The people buying newspapers gathered around, and Fool said: I am the real Fool! My friends are looking for me! Then Fool found an internet café and hurriedly logged into QQ. Only then did he realize that they had been leaving messages for him every day! Fool replied: I am the Fool, I miss you, I really miss you! Where are you all? Tears brimmed in Fool's eyes. He hadn't expected that it was the child and the apprentice with gray avatars just now, and suddenly everything clicked! At the same time, they replied: We miss you too! Here is our contact info ***. 'No frills, I just want you to come back ordinary and simple!' said Fool. A few days later, as they wished, they met again at the same restaurant. Coincidentally, they were all from the same city! Fool finally reunited with them, a long-awaited reunion! Fool used his work savings to buy a gold ring to give to the child; surely this was more precious than the purple bamboo! The child felt guilty! But the child had already realized something clearly: the one who liked Fool more was actually the girl! While they were cutting the cake, the apprentice saw that the master's eyes were only on the child and couldn't help shedding tears, saying she felt unwell and had to leave first. The child understood—seeing their attentiveness, the girl could only choose to step away! Then the child looked earnestly at Fool and said, Fool, the one who truly likes you is your apprentice. She has given endless sweat and effort for you; she is your spiritual support! Girls like her are rare nowadays. Don't you hurry to pursue her and give her the ring! Give it to her! Wishing you both happiness! Go quickly! Fool finally snapped out of it, sprinted two hundred meters, shouting, 'Apprentice, don't leave me! Wait for me! I love you!' The apprentice turned back, wiped her tears, ran toward Fool, and they embraced. Fool put the ring, symbolizing the highest love, onto her finger!
