Lily walked slowly on the way to school. She was still in her mind what her father had just said, what she planned to do in the future.

When she entered the academy, she was looking for this answer, but she still couldn't find it.

"What will you do in the future? Just like Maya, find a stable job and life? Then find an ordinary husband like your mother and give birth to your own descendants?"

When Lily thought of this, she shook her head desperately. This is definitely not the future she wants.

"Use my power to protect Hope Island? Become a guardian of everyone? But the problem is that the sea is calm now, and the most dynamic is that the friction between the governors can be coordinated by the Explorer Association. I can't use it."

Before she knew it, she came to the gate of the college. She thought for a while and walked in.

When finding your own life goals, the knowledge you learned before is useless in this regard, and you must find a way from other directions.

Therefore, Lily went to the library to find the answer, hoping that the island library has a complete range of books. In addition to some banned books, basically all the books from the sea of ​​Earth were included.

She believed that there must be one of these books that can help her solve her doubts.

On this day, Lily stayed in the entire library for a long time. She read too many books day and night, but she didn't find her own answer.

Just as Lily stepped on a ladder and searched over the heavy bookcase, a surprised voice came from below. "Lily? What are you doing here? I have been looking for you for a whole morning, but I haven't found it."

Lily lowered her head and found that her friend Maya was looking at her in surprise.

"I'm not doing anything, I'm just looking for my own future." Lily slid down the ladder and told her about her troubles.

"I never thought about this before. Mr. Charles pulled me onto the boat. He made choices for me on the road, and even the choices he made for me in the end, even the choices he made for me in the end."

"I don't need to think about anything, just accept the results quietly."

"In nearly ten years, my only goal is to return to my parents, but when I really returned to them, I found that no one was leading me, and I knew exactly what to do next."

"In other words, I can no longer find the meaning of myself. Maya, I am really confused now."

If Lily is still the past, perhaps the future she wants is just to be with her parents happily forever, eating, dressing and looking good every day, but she is no longer the Lily who has a simple idea.

But now, knowledge has made her way of thinking no longer naive, and it is not possible to rely on her parents when she grows up.

But this still didn't help her find the answer.

Although I don’t understand some things in Lily’s words, such as becoming a human, I can still understand the general meaning.

"So, do rich people live like this? They are good-looking and rich, but you actually feel that life is meaningless? I really want to change it with you and let you taste how fulfilling the life of the poor is."

Lily gave her a blank look and pulled her towards the door of the library, "Can you help me think of a solution? Are you not my good friend?"

"As a good friend, I remind you that you will be close your graduation exam soon. Your only goal now is to get a graduation exam."

When Lily heard this, she suddenly felt nervous, "Yes, there is also the graduation exam, this is the final one for the time being. Let's go and review it."

Just a few steps, Lily felt something moving behind her. When she turned around, she saw an old man hunchbacked slowly walking by with a stack of books in her arms.

Lily knew him, he was a librarian named Sartre, and a scar on his forehead was very easy to remember.

"What's wrong?" Maya asked in confusion, holding her hand.

Lily shook her head, "Nothing, maybe she felt wrong." After that, she left with Maya.

The old man picked up the book Lily selected on the table, "How to Find Life Goals"

He looked at the title of the book and looked up at Lily's back, then climbed up the ladder and put the book in his eighth hand back.

As the graduation time approaches, Lily has temporarily found a short-term goal, which is to pass the test and has no time to think about anything else.

During the exam days, all the students were extremely nervous, and everyone knew the value of the students in the first session.

As long as they can graduate, the Governor promised a bright future waiting for them.

But in other words, if the test is not passed, it will be a stain on the future resume and will affect their employment, and no one wants to become a stain.

The anxious days of tests finally passed. After the final collective public revision of each other, the transcript results finally came out.

When they learned that the two had successfully passed the test, they hugged each other excitedly.

Facing the cheering students, the officials from the Ministry of Education of Hope Island next to him were also full of joy.

The Governor's investment has finally paid off. Once these people enter the job, Hope Island's technology will once again reach a big step.

That night, the college held a farewell dinner, and the pressure brought by years of study was released on this day.

Under the influence of alcohol, the dinner scene was mixed, but now no one cares about it, laughter, cheers, and many people even hugged and kissed each other.

Lily did not attend, and she returned to the embassy again, looking at the chairs she had sat on and the books she had read.

She was about to leave here and she was close, but she still couldn't find her goal.

"Child, are you very confused now?" An old voice came from behind her, scaring Lily.

When she quickly turned around, she realized that it was the librarian. Lily crossed her legs and bent her knees slightly to give him a skirt-raising ceremony. "Mr. Sartre, have you not been to the dinner?"

"It's all the territory of young people, I want to live a few more years." Sartre, with a peaceful face, walked to Lily.

He patted the scar on his forehead with his hand, "Do you know what this is?"

Lily stared at the ugly scar curiously, "Mr. Sartre, have you ever been injured on your forehead?"

Sartre shook his head, "No, there used to be a white inverted triangle here."

Upon receiving this news, Lily opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Are you a believer of the Church of Light?"

She thought that Sister Linda was the only believer of the God of Light, but she didn't expect that there would be something missing.

"Once it was." Sartre sat slowly on the stool, thinking about the past. "Do you know how desperate I was when I learned that my god was dead?"
