The silver blade slowly moved away.

"My chain of cause and effect was cut off by you?" Fu Jin asked.

She skipped the precedent answer and hit the nail on the head: "You don't have a chain of cause and effect in the first place."

If there really wasn't a chain of cause and effect on him from the beginning, then she would undoubtedly not have been able to break something that didn't exist.

「… That's right." Fu Jin had a headache, his guess was wrong again.

No, or rather, his intelligence was wrong again.

Why did the association's investigation reveal that his causal chain was broken on the night of April 30? What does it mean to send him back to the position determined by the chain of cause and effect? She didn't deny that she had killed him, so what? There was so much he wanted to know.

Fu Jin sighed, and he changed his direction and spoke again: "Do we know each other?"

She skipped his question again, "I call it."

Fu Jin seemed to think of something, and his expression was complicated, "... May you be eternal?"

"...", willing to skip his question again, "She's been tracking your whereabouts."

Something flashed through my mind. This brain hole opened too big for a while, and Fu Jin suddenly showed an indescribable expression, "If you are like this, I will suspect that you are a set NPC, and the mission is to tell me the information that the program has been set, once the problem is out of scope, you will be very embarrassed."

May I look at him with a blank face.

「… She's my friend." For the first time, she answered the question head-on.

Fu Jin breathed a sigh of relief, very good, it seems that it can be communicated.

"Your pets, you'd better get rid of them quickly." Without waiting for Fu Jin to ask any more questions, she said.

"Did you say Fu Da or Qian?"

"You call it Fuda?" Yuan was stunned, and glanced at Fu Jin strangely, this time she showed an indescribable expression, "... You'll regret it later."

"Why did you lose it?" Fu Jin gets back to the point.

"Its right eye connects to someone else's eye."

Someone is watching him all the time? Fu Jin frowned.

"I have one more question." If it wasn't to cut off his chain of cause and effect, then what was the purpose of the knife she swung in the air at that time?

Wishing to ignore him, she glanced at the window, and there were dark clouds outside.

"You should go back."

…

The kitchen was faintly lit by the morning light, and Tai stood at the kitchen door expressionlessly.

"Tick."

As soon as the water from the faucet was turned off, the last drop of water fell.

After standing like this for a moment, he turned and walked in the direction of the hallway.

"Knock knock."

No response.

Tai frowned, he dropped his knocking hand and lifted his foot.

- "Bump!"

With this sound, Erichy and the descendants immediately appeared.

"What's wrong?" Elixi asked, looking at the fallen door.

Tai turned around, his face sinking like water, "Mr. Fu is gone."

She walked over, looked at the empty room, and asked, "What did you bring?"

"I didn't bring anything but a computer." Tai said, frowning again, "Are you going to find him?"

"No, I don't." Knowing this, he stroked Tai's face as if soothingly, "Mr. Fu will have his own ideas." She put down her hand, turned and walked back to her room, "We'll just have to wait."

Tai watched as the door closed and turned back to the balcony.

Elysie watched as Tai opened the glass door and went out, she reached out and grabbed his wrist, "Where are you going?"

"Look for him." Tai slapped Erich's hand away, and he replied with some irritation.

"We're bodyguards, not babysitters." Erichie's expression was a little playful.

"Wouldn't it be nice to give him a little time and freedom to think?" Elysy said.

"He doesn't have the ability to protect himself at all!" Tai roared.

"Do you really think he doesn't? Do you think Fu Jin didn't even consider this? Please, from the beginning to now, apart from mind reading, how much has he let you know?"

"If he runs away without even thinking through this, then he doesn't have the value of being so protected."

Seeing that Tai seemed much calmer, Elycy slowly let go.

"You're out of control." She said bluntly.

Tai lowered his eyes, and he replied in a low muffled voice, "... Hmm."

"It's useless if you go. If Fu Jin didn't think we could help him at all, he wouldn't tell us what he knew."

A wicked smile tugged at the corners of Elysy's lips, "You just believe in believing in the Descendant, at least she's never made a mistake."

Tai was silent.

「... I see." For a long time, he said so.

Leaning against the door, listening to Elysy's words, her expression strangely solemn.

As if considering something, the fingers of the descendants were rhythmically pointed on the wall.

...

Fu Jin stood on the street on the outskirts of the city. In contrast to the realm of dreams, reality sits on a cloudless clear sky.

Looking at it, he seemed to notice something, and suddenly turned around and looked behind him.

Behind him, in the empty place, there was a silver-haired man with his hands in the pockets of his long black coat, looking away with indifferent eyes.

Sensing Fu Jin looking over, the man withdrew his gaze and turned his head to look back at Fu Jin.

Here comes the second visitor after the elders of the association.

The man looked Fu Jin up and down. He spoke, a little playfully, "You're much thinner than I thought."

And Fu Jin said the sentence he asked most often during this time: "Who are you?"

"The person you're looking for."

Hearing him say this, Fu Jin felt embarrassed.

Who is he looking for? He's been looking for too many people lately.

But if you want to talk about the number one person who wants to find out...

"Wish for eternity?" Fu Jin showed a subtle expression, he thought it was a woman.

When the man heard this, he showed a look of astonishment that was very inconsistent with his temperament, and when he came back to his senses, he actually smiled, with that smile in his slightly sharp eyes, and became very gentle, like Fu Jin when he looked at the cat.

"It's not."

Sure enough, it's not. He's really confused, and everyone has been trying to guess lately that it's for eternity.

Fu Jin stroked his forehead and sighed. Not again. What should he say to a stranger who may be an old friend?

"Do we know each other?"

"No, the first meeting."

The man looked at the helpless Fu Jin, and slightly hooked the corners of his lips, "Introduce yourself, surnamed Yu, some people call me zero."

"You should know me?"

"I don't know." Fu Jin said.

"The guild didn't tell you anything?" The man asked.

A smile appeared on Fu Jin's lips, "Yes, no."

He felt that he had grasped the knack of obtaining information, and as long as he cooperated and said that he didn't know, no, or didn't know, then some people would automatically tell him what they knew, just like the supporting characters who gave the protagonist equipment in the novel.

"It's nothing, it doesn't matter if I don't know, I'm just asked to come and see you." But Zero was not affected by the routines that Fu Jin had been encountering, and after a short period of surprise, he quickly put this matter behind him.

"Trusted?" Fu Jin frowned.

"Your readers."

"No, I don't." Fu Jin said coldly.

"It's rare to be a companion, don't you listen to me?" Zero questions.

Fu Jin chuckled, "I'm not your companion."

"How do you know?" Zero questions.

"I have no interest in destroying the world." Fu Jin said.

"I'm not interested in destroying the world." Zero smiled, "Looks like we're still very similar."

Fu Jin subconsciously rejected this sentence, he frowned, "What are you doing here?"

"Persuade you to save the world?" After thinking about it, he actually made an answer full of bad taste.

The real face is faster than the book, this person only said one second that he has no interest in destroying the world, and the next second he wants to instigate him to stand on the opposite side of him.

Fu Jin's cheeks twitched slightly, "I signed a contract with the association, and I can't beat you in my life."

"There will be a way." Zero said.

"Hah..." Fu Jin stroked his forehead first, and then put down his hand.

At that moment, a familiar and long-lost sneer appeared on his face, "If you touch my things, of course I will blow your dog's head." Fu Jin said, his slow tone full of smiles.

"But if not, what does it matter to me whether to save the world or not?" He turned his face sideways, as if enjoying his words, and squinted slightly, "Getting stronger is just to solve puzzles, and I hate everything that is not under my control. If anyone calculates against me, then I will surely show him what will happen to me."

After hearing his words, Zero actually smiled, "Wait for the good news."

As the word good news ended, zero also dissipated like the wind.

Fu Jin looked into the distance, like Zero had just appeared when he first appeared.

He believes that Zero really has no interest in destroying the world.

But, so what?

Fu Jin took out his mobile phone, filtered all the people he knew in his heart, and finally clicked on Yan Ziyi's avatar. He also sent a meaningless message to Hikoko, "Trash."

Hikoko had just woken up when he replied, "You are."

It was rare for Fu Jin not to worry about him, and he focused on the next sentence.

- "Let's meet."

"Tomorrow night, noon, old place."

The phone vibrated and came a reply from Hikoko, who said, "Okay."

…

When Fu Jin returned to the hotel room, it was already early in the morning.

Before dawn, the thick curtains closed to isolate the whole world.

There was a person sitting on the edge of the bed, it was dark, and Fu Jin didn't know who it was.

"Mr. Fu, are you okay?" The other reached out and placed his palm over his forehead.

Yes.

"No fever." He said softly, withdrawing his hand.

"I'm not too sick, I don't even get colds often." Fu Jin said, sitting up, "Why are you here?"

"Really? But I always have the illusion that Mr. Fu is not in good health." Yi smiled, "Just wanted to ask Mr. Fu some questions."

"Please." Fu Jin moved a little to the other side of the bed.

"What do you think of your conversation with them?" Yi asked Fu Jin.

They. Does it mean that the elder of the association? What would the manager like? Men in Black Zero?

「…」

"It's all three. I just want to know what you think." He replied, in a soft tone.

Fu Jin raised his eyebrows and replied conservatively, "... It's interesting."

This is equivalent to answering nothing.

He smiled unmindfully.

"Anything else?"

「…」

"I..." Fu Jin lowered his eyes, pondering word by word, and after a long time, he said, "I don't know."

Unlike Tai, he often has the illusion that he is a child, like a student who has been evaluated by a tutor.

He smiled, "It's been two years, and although I can't know it very clearly, what mankind has been pursuing since its origins... In fact, you may have known it all along."

Because you can't get what you want, do you think you're lonely and yearn for stories that are rare in reality?

Fu Jin did not answer.

Yi continued, "Mr. Fu, how much do you think I know about you? One-sided? All?"

"What are you obsessed with, why you are here?"

"Mr. Fu, are you disdainful, lazy, or... Don't you think it's necessary?"

Fu Jin was suddenly silent. That's right, he... It's just that I can't think of it inexplicably.

"It seems that Mr. Fu has understood, so Mr. Fu, please choose."

"From this moment on, do you want to risk your life to know the truth, or will you be sealed with all your memories sealed again and live your life without knowing anything?"

Fu Jin smiled, he opened his lips, and responded with great affirmation, "I, I want to know the truth."

Yi also smiled, her hand went around Fu Jin's head, and ripped off something, transparent, invisible, she whispered, in a blessed tone, "Then, please open your eyes and take a look, this world."

"Don't be deceived by anyone, including yourself."

"You will see the most incredible world."

"It's going to be a world you've never seen before, it's unimaginable."

If you are not satisfied, then go and ask for what you want.

This is the only ability that human beings are born with.

…

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

Fu Jin missed the appointment.

Yanzi also waited in the restaurant for three hours, but Fu Jin did not come.

Not only did no one come, but there wasn't even a single message.

Nothing will happen, right?

Hikoko was also stunned.

He called the waiter, ordered two more dishes, and continued in the restaurant.

Then he sent a group message on his mobile phone to ask if anyone knew Fu Jin's whereabouts.
