Chapter 254

Qiao Suisui turned her face away, wanting to avoid this question.

Zongfang, however, pressed step by step, contrary to his usual behavior.

"According to what you just said, on the second timeline, you discovered Luka was gone, then you went back to the past to try to change it, which is why there was a third timeline. Then what happened on the third timeline that made you go back to the past again and again?"

Qiao Suisui's red lips parted slightly, but she stopped speaking. She didn't dare to look at Zongfang's eyes, but at this moment, the men's gazes were all fixed on her, making her feel somewhat pressured.

Ka'er couldn't watch anymore and blocked her, obstructing Zongfang's pressing gaze, "What are you doing? Usually, if someone says a harsh word to her, you look like you're going to kill someone, what are you doing now? Don't force her."

Zongfang grabbed Ka'er's collar in irritation and pushed him aside, "If we don't ask clearly, what if she goes back again one day?"

Ka'er was startled, frowned, and stopped speaking.

Luka also didn't stand out to stop it for the first time, which was very unusual. Instead, he stared at Qiao Suisui tightly, also waiting for her answer.

Zongfang knelt on both knees in front of her, grabbing her shoulders and not giving her a chance to hide.

"Tell me, why do you go back again and again?"

Qiao Suisui lowered her eyes, the corners of her eyes already red, her eyelashes trembling, still not saying a word.

Zongfang saw her looking like she was about to cry but still refusing to open her mouth, his anxiety flaring up, but the force of his hands remained restrained, not too heavy but still tightly confining her.

"If you won't say it, I'll say it for you."

He took out a letter and held it in front of Qiao Suisui.

"On the first timeline, Anubis died, you were very sad, so you also... with him." Zongfang gritted his teeth and swallowed that word, very avoidant, continuing: "But I don't know the reason, you came back. To find a way to save him, you went back to the past.

On the second timeline, you failed, and even changed Sikesaisi's ending, so you went back to the past. The third timeline is the same, until you went back to school and gave this letter to your past self. Every key node written here is what you experienced, you know which choice is the optimal solution, so you taught your past self, trying to change the future by changing the past.

You were for saving Anubis from beginning to end, right?

You could be reckless again and again for him, but never thought of telling me, right? You didn't believe at all that I could solve these with you, right?"

"That's not it!"

Under the questioning, Qiao Suisui had already shed silent tears. She had red eyes, her voice was a bit hoarse, and her volume increased involuntarily: "You were gone, Luka was gone, Ashi was gone, you were all gone, what was I supposed to do! What could I do?"

The pressure since the start of time retrospection broke like a taut string with a "hum."

Perhaps it was too tired, perhaps it was relief, or perhaps because they were all by her side at this moment, everything finally returned to the way she wanted. Qiao Suisui collapsed and cried, crying until she could almost not breathe, but the sadness, sorrow, and heaviness that had accumulated in her heart were all swept away with the tears, like a release of pressure.

Zongfang had already hugged her tightly the moment she spoke, his large hands protecting her head, kissing her forehead while crying.

Luka stepped forward immediately, squatting by her side and constantly stroking her back, helping her catch her breath.

Laiboli stood stunned in place, his brain "boomed," feeling he couldn't hear anything around him, only able to see Qiao Suisui, who was covered in tears at this moment.

What did she just say? She said she was gone, so she went back to the past again and again, just because she couldn't accept the fact that he died, so she kept changing? She also said she died herself, what exactly happened originally? So... everything today was exchanged by her persistence again and again, never giving up? Ka'er's pupils vibrated, and he associated countless things in an instant, "Photos..."

Then he suddenly turned his head to look at Anubis and asked with a trembling voice: "Which day did she go back to? Which day was it when you saw her!"

Anubis said: "National Memorial Day."

Ka'er's figure swayed.

The day the former Head of State was assassinated was designated as National Memorial Day, requiring all Federal citizens to observe silence. And it was that day... he had memory loss, and photos of Zong Yan at the crime scene appeared in his light brain... His words lost all joking and impropriety, becoming toneless: "Who killed the former Head of State?"

Qiao Suisui raised a pair of red eyes, her expression firm.

"I killed him. And Li, I killed him too."

Hearing this, Ka'er looked up, breathing heavily, feeling a sharp pain in his heart. The other men heard her words, their eyes full of shock and heartache.

"You also erased my memory?"

"Yes."

30 minutes, he and she had been together for 30 minutes. In 30 minutes, she killed two people, kidnapped Zong Yan, and even before leaving, didn't forget to leave him a chip to gain freedom!

Ka'er looked at Qiao Suisui, his eyes full of pain. He shouted hysterically: "Why... why didn't you tell me, I could have killed him, you should have told me! I should have done it! Why did you do these things yourself..."

Ka'er killed someone for the first time when he was a child. He and Kai were trained to become child soldiers of the Federation, and the target of the first shooting training was a living person. Although they were all prisoners imprisoned for crimes, the feeling of shooting a paper target and shooting a real person was completely different. He killed that person, one shot hitting the person's chest.

Snow leopards have very sensitive hearing, and Ka'er hated this sensitivity.

Because he even heard the "puff" sound of the bullet piercing the flesh, hitting the meat, and then piercing through the chest.

After that day, he gained a piece of knowledge: when a person dies, blood surges out, it doesn't splash out like he imagined.

After that, he vomited for ten days, no matter what kind of nutrient solution he had, he would vomit. It was also after this time that, apart from the necessary intake for growth, he had no desire for any food or nutrient solution, especially when doing missions, he would eat as little as possible.

This was the feeling of killing.

Ka'er knew he had become numb because he had swallowed the feeling of killing again and again in subsequent training and missions, but that didn't mean it wasn't terrible.

But the person he had always protected, the person he held in the palm of his hand, the person he was even afraid would melt if he held her in his mouth, had actually killed someone, and even personally photographed the bloody scene, just to leave a bargaining chip for him in the future.

Ka'er's heart ached so much he couldn't add to it, and he suddenly fell to his knees on the ground, drained of strength.

After hearing her words, Luka's fingertips couldn't stop trembling. At this moment, he hated himself to the core.

His hands cradled Qiao Suisui's cheeks, his guilt overflowing.

"I'm sorry, I'm incompetent."
