"Fuck off." I yelled at her in a hoarse voice, like a trapped beast that had just been seriously injured, and my whole body was filled with distrust. Seeing her approaching me, I immediately stepped back defensively, clinging to the wall behind me, and struggled to get up.

Immediately I felt dizzy and fell back into bed.

Only then did I notice that it was a hospital bed.

"Oh, don't move, I won't hurt you. My name is Echo and you were brought back by IFY...... I'm sorry about your brother. But you still have a way to get him back. She stopped where she was, lest she further exacerbate my emotions at the moment.

She hooked her lips and smiled, revealing a smile as eerie as the woman in her dream.

"Just join us on Zbrita."

I looked at the ceiling and sneered.

"You've already figured it out, haven't you?" I smiled miserably, "Why do you have to sacrifice him?!" You have to do that, don't you?! ”

"Did you misunderstand something? We don't want to see anything like your brother, but with our K's healing power, we can bring your brother back from the dead, as long as it hasn't been more than 24 hours......" The girl didn't seem to see my darkened face at the moment, and said to me with a smile and winking at her big eyes, "But you also know, we're not a charity." All human and material resources can only be enjoyed by employees...... You know what I mean, right? Well, to give you a reference, you've slept for about 3 hours since IFY brought you back, and there's less than 21 hours left for you to think about. ”

After speaking. The girl smiled and bowed to me, bouncing to leave the room.

"You did it." I had been staring at the ceiling and suddenly opened my mouth, tears flowing again, "At that time, the mechanical arm wasn't actually about to explode, right?" …… It was IFY who did it, and the use of his 'spells', including his deliberate failure to save my brother later, was all premeditated, right? ”

"No, it's that you've just been hit by this kind of blow now, so your thoughts are too sensitive, right? IFY also went out of his way to bring you back. If only he knew you thought so. It's going to be very sad. The girl's hand was on the doorknob, and she didn't look back, unable to see her expression clearly.

"No, I have proof." I closed my eyes. A mocking smile appeared. "I just remembered. He ...... when he uttered the words, 'That arm you just broke is going to explode,' snapped his fingers. ”

The heart began to ache dullly.

It's all to blame that I believed someone I shouldn't have believed, and brought him to my brother...... I killed my brother.

It's all my fault......

"Bang." I heard the door closing. The girl named Echo didn't end up saying another word.

I curled myself up in a ball and hugged myself. My head and heart hurt dullly.

Why could she say the word "death" so easily? ……

I was chilling all over my body and shivering.

What the hell did I do......

I want to see my brother, I want to meet my brother again. Trying to make sure he's okay.

I didn't really want to admit that something really happened to my brother until I saw him in person......

There are more than 20 hours to go...... If only before that, I can't be sure that my brother is really safe. I joined this "volunteer" company.

I said to myself in my heart that I would leave myself the last psychological way back. As if I had made up my mind, I trembled and struggled to get out of bed.

Ignoring my dizzy and aching temples, I unplugged all the IV tubes from my hands and stumbled outside.

The other side.

"Wouldn't you be going too far?" A silver-haired man looked at the display in front of him and frowned.

"Don't say that, K." A flirtatious voice appeared behind the silver-haired man with a swaying wine glass. IFY's gaze crossed the side of the silver-haired man, K, and looked at the screen, the girl who had to keep herself on the wall to maintain her balance, her face was uneasy and desperate, and her eyes were filled with endless sadness, and she couldn't help but take a sip of the red wine in her hand in a good mood, "What a beautiful expression, it's a work of art." Ah~ah, I really want this face to remain on this expression from now on. ”

"Be careful, she'll bite you back in the future, IFY. Did you hear that? She had just guessed all of your crimes in front of me - the loopholes you left behind were too obvious. A petite figure pushed the door open, a cold expression on its face.

"Echo, why did you say that." IFY looked aggrieved, "I'll take care of the proportions, I finally have someone to have fun with, don't you want to be like this...... Guarding the camp in the rear every day, but you can't imagine how boring it is. As he spoke, he lifted the gauze on his hand, "When will this be good, K?" Really, I don't want to be alone in the base camp anymore! ”

"You hit that girl in the neck with this hand today, so the stay period has to be extended." K didn't even look at him, "And aren't you with Zoe and Josh?" ”

"Oh? Those two awesome recruits who haven't been trained for so long, you say? IFY SMILED DISDAINFULLY, "ONE OF THEM WAS EMBARRASSED TO WORSHIP ME...... Just thinking about the look in his eyes makes me sick! ”

"IFY, you're talking too much." Echo gave him a warning look.

"Why, I'm telling the truth, okay?" IFY stroked her lips disapprerovingly, "Besides, isn't it all about strength here?" ”

"yes, so I can beat you back to the way you used to be when you first got here." Echo stared expressionlessly at the girl on the screen who had finally moved to the door of the "ward", her face was as white as paper, and her delicate voice said harsh words that obviously did not match the image, "If you let me 'wipe your ass' behind you like today, I promise to do what I say." ”

"......" A hint of gloom flashed in IFY's eyes, and then immediately returned to the original frivolous feeling, and said to Echo with a grin, "Oh, don't be so fierce Echo-chan, I know you're the strongest, so I've always listened to you." ”

"You'd better be." Echo didn't even look at IFY and walked out of the room again.

IFY's face finally darkened, and he gritted his teeth secretly.

K, who had silently witnessed the whole process, sighed, did not speak, and left the room.

And Zoe, who had been squatting outside the door on the other side and eavesdropping, also clenched his fist at his side at this time, and ran away from behind the door with a gloomy face. (To be continued.) )
