Chapter 874: I Who Exist For You 10
Jin Chen immediately put his arm around his shoulder and went in.
"You just said the diary was first written when you were sixteen?"
"Yeah, let me show you."
Yishen pulled him down to squat in the corner, just like many times when they were youths.
The diary was opened, the handwriting on the front page already blurred, stained with the marks of time.
The reason Yishen could easily find this diary is because he left a special bookmark on the page where he first recorded the fantasy world.
Called a bookmark, it was actually just a piece of paper with a lightly sketched simple drawing.
"Huh?" Yishen picked up the bookmark, memories flooding back, he suddenly turned and examined the bookmark toward Jin Chen.
"Speaking of which, when I first started describing you, I took a hallucination as inspiration, and it turned out quite similar."
Jin Chen curiously took the bookmark and played with it, "It's quite similar, truly amazing."
Although it resembles Yishen by sixty percent, the person on the bookmark can clearly be seen as himself, not Yishen.
Yishen flipped through his youth diary, feeling quite moved, like the joy of fulfilling a dream, also able to share with his youthful self.
"This place is where I first described you, that is, ten years ago."
Yishen's tone was very joyful.
This evidence predates the timeline presented by the other side by nine years.
"This description..."
Yishen finished reading that slightly immature passage, paused doubtfully, and looked at Jin Chen's attire today.
"How does it feel, kind of similar?"
Jin Chen, who finally realized:!!
"Oh no."
He stood up, gave Yishen a tight hug, as if comforting him by rubbing his shoulder, "What's described is me, even if it was ten years ago, it's still similar."
"Having the diary is fine, let's go home."
"Alright."
Yishen also didn't pursue it further.
He put the small diary into his backpack, and had no intention of leaving the other books and volumes in the wooden crate behind; of course the task of moving them back was given to Jin Chen.
——
When the two left, the three members of the Yi family still didn't dare come out of the room.
The journey was calm and peaceful.
Only after returning home did Yishen discover the problem when he checked his backpack.
The diary had disappeared.
"It's gone?"
Jin Chen was stunned, his eyebrows almost twisted into knots.
"Could it have fallen out when we bumped into someone earlier on the road?" Yishen wasn't sure, but the backpack zipper was also loose, so that could only be the reason.
"When did you bump into someone on the road?"
Jin Chen suddenly became alert, sat up straight, and asked, "Was I beside you at that time?"
"Yes."
Yishen carefully recalled, "I just got bumped on the shoulder; the street was crowded, so I didn't pay attention."
"Impossible."
Jin Chen's face turned somewhat cold.
He had been watching Yishen closely; being bumped would definitely not go unnoticed.
There were still members of the Time Exchange on the street, and Yishen's memory was tampered with again.
【Holy shit, this is terrifying.】
Jin Chen's mind raced a thousand turns, but his expression gave nothing away; he gave a comforting embrace and gently said, "I'll go look for it later, don't worry, Shen Shen, rest in the room for a while."
"I'm not tired..."
Yishen's body went limp, and he fell into Jin Chen's arms.
【What are you doing knocking out the Main God?】0731 confused.
【The timeline jumps too much, possibly affecting his memory.】
Jin Chen scooped him up horizontally, carefully carried him into the bedroom, turned on the air conditioner, and set up a barrier before feeling at ease.
He supported himself with his hands, bent over, tucked in the blanket, and gently touched Yishen's face with a soft motion.
Then he stood up and disappeared into the room.
——
【Host, friendly reminder: If you regress to a timeline where you exist, avoid colliding with another version of yourself, otherwise the consequences could be severe, possibly resulting in being sent back to the world inside the book.】
Jin Chen opened his eyes and scanned the crowd on the street.
In the flowing crowd, he found the backs of himself and Yishen moving forward.
He grabbed a hat, put it on, and silently followed the two.
But Jin Chen obviously forgot one thing.
No matter which timeline's version of himself, he is always very vigilant.
Therefore, the first thing Jin Chen drew attention to was his own self.
Upon realizing this, his heart raced wildly, almost coming face-to-face with the version of himself turning back.
He hurriedly stepped back, but accidentally ended up meeting the probing gaze of a Time Exchange member.
Yo, they came to the door.
Jin Chen twitched his fingers, a dagger appearing in his palm; when the red light stopped, he saw an unknown number preparing to attack Yishen.
He had grabbed that person and slammed them onto another road a few seconds ago, then instantly blended into the bustling crowd.
"It's you brat who hit him,"
Jin Chen slapped this person's head with one palm, knocked them out and threw them into the trash can.
【Damn! Host, dodge quickly!】
0731 screamed.
As the words sounded, Jin Chen instantly dodged the spiritual power attack, his peach-blossom eyes widening in shock, and at the same time heard footsteps.
His own spiritual power!
Oh no, hurry and run.
With a snap, his figure vanished.
"Damn it."
Jin Chen looked puzzled at the person in the trash can.
Who's so kind, even beating that person for him?
——
"Ouch."
Jin Chen appeared at home, sweating profusely for the first time.
He shook his head, organizing the extra memory fragments that had surfaced, almost punching himself.
"Tell me! Why are you being so vigilant?"
Almost got myself killed!
0731 laughed happily.
Jin Chen scooped Yishen into his arms, then carefully moved him from the bedroom to the living room, laying him on the sofa and covering him with a blanket.
Yishen slowly woke up, realizing he had fallen asleep on the sofa, and instinctively sought Jin Chen's figure.
"Dear Yishen..."
Jin Chen slumped against the other sofa, "I'm a bit tired, hug—"
His expression was listless, his tone slightly spoiled.
Yishen's heart went soft, he wrapped himself in the blanket and walked over, hugging through the blanket for a moment, "I fell asleep; why didn't you wake me?"
"You too… are tired, rest a bit."
Jin Chen touched his nose, rested his chin on Yishen's shoulder, and said in a muffled voice: "I also got the diary back; go post a clarification."
"Okay."
Yishen responded, the sleep-loosened hair tie fell off, his shoulder-length hair strands softly scattering; just as he tried to rise and separate the embrace, Jin Chen's fingers curled a lock of his hair.
"Yishen's hair is fragrant too." Jin Chen suddenly said for no reason.
"... Alright, let go."
Yishen, who had lived twenty-six years and never been praised like this, tapped Jin Chen's forehead, pushed him away, his cheeks slightly red.
【Detected Villain Blackening Value -2, total 58!】
——
Time Exchange.
"Number Four and Number Five are dead too?!"
Number One received the news, almost unable to catch his breath.
He took off the earpiece, his teeth itching with hatred.
Originally, it was only because of the grudge between Xuyuchuan and the target that they wanted to eliminate this truly strange person, but now it has become a mutual grudge of life and death between them.
"Number Seven! Connect all Skynet, quickly go check this person's identity!"
"Number Nine! No matter what method you use, you must gather manpower and quickly eliminate this person!"
"Also! Put me through to Xuyuchuan! Quickly!"
The smart screen lit up, a few seconds later.
"Mr. One."
Xuyuchuan looked toward the void, his tone respectful, "Is there something?"
"You! You must guard that target! Now it's fine—we've lost several members to that person."
