In a small roadside hotel mixed with fish and dragons, in a certain hourly room.

Jiang Chao was half-lying on a bed with one arm on his pillow. Next to him sat a thin, ordinary-looking girl. The girl's eyes were staring at the white sheets, and she was in a daze. Suddenly, Jiang Chao stretched out a hand and groped on his body.

"When is it, you still want to do this kind of thing...... the girl twisted her shoulders and said, her voice coquettishly white Jiang Chao.

"What are you afraid of! Isn't it just expulsion, my brother-in-law is the director of the school, and he must have gone to intercede for me. You just wait to see the show, it must be thunder and rain. It's definitely fine! Jiang Chao's tone was full of indifference.

He sat up all of a sudden, stretched out his other hand, and put both hands on the girl to get up. The girl hummed in her throat, not knowing whether she was reluctant or in pleasure.

Soon after, there was a rustling sound in the room, followed by a high-pitched cry that seemed to be afraid that others would not be able to hear it......

The process lasted three minutes.

The crisp white sheets became a mess. Jiang Chao lay upright on the bed, his eyes staring at the ceiling, his eyes motionless, as if he was dead. Only his heaving chest proved that he was still alive, proof of what had just happened.

"Hey, you say, what is Principal Tan asking us to do?" The girl pillowed her head on Jiang Chao's arm, and her voice seemed a little uneasy, "Why do you want to meet in the hotel?" I had a bad premonition. Otherwise, let's not go......"

Jiang Chao's eyes were still staring at the ceiling motionless, as if there was a fascinating and wonderful ball game on it. After a while, he suddenly spoke, "Cut...... What else can there be, it must have been my brother-in-law who talked to him. Didn't the surname Tan say it, and he wants to talk to us about the issue of student status. It is estimated that nine times out of ten, things have already been settled, but just hold on to it, for fear of extraneous branches, it's a routine! Weiwei, don't worry, as long as I am here, your student status will be fine. Jiang Chao patted his chest and promised, "As long as I open my mouth to beg my brother-in-law, the person surnamed Tan will definitely be able to open the net and will not pursue our affairs." ”

"That's good...... I really hope that Principal Tan can see your family's face and leave me some mercy. I don't want to transfer. Because ......" The girl named Weiwei listened to Jiang Chao's assurance, smiled sweetly on her face, rolled her eyes, licked her lips at Jiang Chao in the air, made a seductive expression, and rubbed her unclothed upper body on Jiang Chao's arm honestly.

Seeing this, Jiang Chao smiled evilly on his face, and pounced on him with a "whoosh". Vivi pretended to exclaim. The two immediately had another battle of clouds and rain.

Or three minutes.

"Hurry up and put on your clothes, it's almost time to go see the guy surnamed Tan." Jiang Chao put on his clothes and said. At this moment, he looked like an addict who had been sucked dry of blood by a vampire, and when he got up, he not only staggered and stood unsteadily, but his face was even more pale and bloodless. But even so, he still looked at Wei Wei when she was dressing, and she looked like a pervert reincarnated.

"Don't rush, don't rush, I'm putting on makeup......" Vivi's coquettish voice came.

After a while, the two walked out of the hotel room together and went downstairs.

After only a few seconds, the door to the room next to them opened, and Li Quan slowly walked out of it.

He listened the whole time. The walls of the small hotel are poorly insulated and everything is clear. He didn't care how Jiang Chao and that girl messed around, he just wanted to get Principal Tan's action steps to confirm the timeline.

From the conversation between the two just now, he has basically determined that the day Jiang Chao and this girl disappeared should be in front of him.

"Hmph, talk about student status? It seems that Principal Tan used this as an excuse to trick Jiang Chao and this girl into going to that hotel. Eventually, the two disappeared and became missing persons. Everyone else thought they had eloped. ”

Standing in front of the corridor window, Li Quan saw Jiang Chao downstairs taking the girl into a taxi, and the car drove away quickly. He didn't plan to follow the two of them anymore, he had to rush to the scene in advance to solve the problem.

When Jiang Chao and Weiwei came to room 502 of the hotel agreed with Principal Tan, at the door, they knocked on the door for a long time and did not see Principal Tan open the door. Jiang Chao listened to the door for a while, and found that there seemed to be no one inside.

"Strange, why is there no one?" Jiang Chao took out his mobile phone and dialed Principal Tan's number. As a result, a faint ringtone came from room 502 and echoed on his phone. No one answered the phone for a long time, and the door still didn't open. "It must be right here, I hear the phone ringing inside, but he doesn't seem to be there."

"Shall we wait?" Vivi proposed.

"Okay, then wait a minute." Jiang Chao said.

They were destined not to wait for Principal Tan, because Principal Tan had already died inside. Just ten minutes before they arrived at the hotel, Li Quan arrived here one step ahead of time and knocked on the door.

Principal Tan was surprised when he opened the door to see that it was Li Quan, he didn't expect Li Quan to come, which disrupted his original plan. However, Principal Tan still warmly invited Li Quan into the room. Li Quan is now the school's sweetheart, the seedling of the head coach of the provincial basketball team, and his future is immeasurable. Principal Tan didn't mind taking this opportunity to communicate with Li Quan and communicate his feelings.

"Xiao Li, come, come in and sit, you came to me for ......"

When Li Quan stuck the dagger into his back from behind, Principal Tan immediately realized that Li Quan attacked him from behind, but he didn't understand why Li Quan did this until he died.

Principal Tan's body fell heavily in a pool of blood, and he couldn't see it.

Day and night alternate rapidly. Li Quan returned to his normal time from three and a half months ago.

Next, he didn't need to confirm whether Jiang Chao was rescued, he just needed to confirm whether Yao Feifei was saved or not, and he could confirm whether it was successful this time. Principal Tan was killed by him again, and Jiang Chao was also saved by him, if the problem was really here, it should have changed this time.

But when he came to school, he found that nothing had changed. Five police cars in front of the school are still blocking the main road at the intersection.

Li Quan does not give up, he wants to see the truth with his own eyes. So in the midst of the siege, he infiltrated the school and finally confirmed that nothing had changed. Yao Feifei's seat was still empty. Everything is the same as before.

Li Quan stood in a daze for a while.

"It's not Jiang Chao's problem...... It's not Principal Tan's problem either...... No matter how many times I kill Principal Tan, the result is still the same...... What the hell is the problem?? Or should I not kill him at all? ”

Footsteps could be heard in the hallway. A balding middle-aged man accompanied two uniformed police officers in this direction. Li Quan looked over and recognized this bald middle-aged man as Jiang Chao's brother-in-law, he still remembered that Jiang Chao's brother-in-law was the director of the sports group, and at this time he was several years older than the person in his impression.

"This is the class. Two police officers, the children are still in class, so don't disturb them for my attention. If there is anything, you can call their homeroom teacher to come out. The head teacher's surname is Xue and he has taught Li Quan. Director Liu said that the tone did not have the commanding and domineering appearance in Li Quan's memory.

"Got it. Go get busy, comrade. A police officer said. None of them could find Li Quan beside them.

"Hey! Good, good. After Director Liu finished speaking, he took the things in his hand and left.

Only then did Li Quan notice that Director Liu had been holding a broom in his hand, and the uniform that Director Liu was wearing, if he remembered correctly, was the clothes worn by the school cleaners.

Li Quan was stunned for a while, sighed, and understood everything.

……

Li Quan did not give up.

After only a day's rest, he once again set out on the road to revise time.

This time, he plans to save the four members of the Qi family. The Qi family died in the arson, and he wanted to see if the changes he made could have an impact.

Even a hint of it would be fine.

This time, he started with his own memories. Thinking back on what happened, it is not difficult to roughly calculate when the Qi family was wiped out.

He remembered what had happened since he had returned from his third time crossing into Azeroth. At the time, he had just learned to summon demons in Azeroth, and Red Bull Lords had just been created. Upon his return to Earth, he was immediately blocked by the police in a rental house.

He remembers very well that the police said at the time that the murder happened "three days ago", when a fire broke out at night in a high-end villa in the lake and mountain villa area, and concluded that it was arson.

This is an important clue. The point in time to determine that he needs to return is roughly as follows: four months ago, three days before the return of the third time crossing, at night.

It only took him one time to get to the exact right time.

Or wait and see. He waited outside the Qi family's villa, and when the arsonist appeared, he immediately went up and caught him. It turned out that this was just a down-and-out man who took people's money to do things for others, not the mastermind behind the scenes.

He remembered that the mastermind behind the scenes had a farmstead, and it was not clear where it was. Last time, he hid in the other party's car and went with the car. Of course, this did not bother him. You just need to travel back in time, go through the whole thing again, and write down the route.

After some twists and turns, he finally succeeded in preventing the fate of the four members of the Qi family from being burned alive. Then he killed the psychopathic principal in the farmstead.

At this point, there is no reason for the Qi family to die again, at least not now.

Standing outside the farmstead, with the manor lit by a raging fire in front of him, Li Quan fell into thought, and the surrounding firelight reflected his face flickering.

"It stands to reason that since the troublemakers behind the Qi family are dead, then the Qi family of four must have been saved by me. But ...... "But he found that he didn't have much hope in his heart." "After all, the first few times, for some unknown reason, every one of my revisions failed, and in the end nothing changed anything. What will be the result of going back this time? For some reason, he was faintly resistant to knowing this answer.

Li Quan returned to normal time.

After a little inquiry, sure enough, nothing has changed. The murder of the Qi family still exists.

Li Quan suddenly felt that these things were like scars that were firmly and deeply rooted in time, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't erase them.

Is that all? Could it be that you really can't save yourself?

"But isn't that what Harry Potter did? Why didn't I do it when it was my turn? Li Quan was a little frenzied, he squatted down and grabbed his hair with both hands.

There is a huge gap in my heart......

A strong sense of failure......

All like black holes, began to devour him.

He didn't want to admit that all his previous efforts were wishful thinking and dreams. The most difficult thing for him to accept was that he didn't understand why all this was happening, why it was the way it was. It was supposed to go well......

A feeling called despair gradually grew and spread in Li Quan's heart.

Even when he had been forced to flee the country a few months earlier, when everything seemed to be so bad, he had never felt so hopeless.

It is the sadness of when a person discovers that no matter what they do, no matter how hard they try, they cannot change anything.

Li Quan's breathing gradually became heavier, and his eyes were red and swollen. His fists were clenched, and his bones turned white.

His emotions seemed to be on the verge of a breakdown at any moment.

And at this moment, a pure plant energy in Li Quan's body flowed through his whole body, making him quickly calm down. His mind also returned to a state of clarity.

The voice of the system came: "The state of the host is worrying, and it is recommended that the host adjust its mentality in time." ”

"I ...... It's okay......" Li Quan took a deep breath, and his breathing gradually stabilized, "Thank you, system." ”

"What is the host concerned about?"

When Li Quan heard this, a wry smile appeared on his face. "Because I thought I could save everyone. But in the end, I found that I couldn't save myself. All my previous efforts turned out to be a joke. ”

"Is it because of Yao Feifei?" The system asks.

Li Quan was slightly stunned and nodded.

"What does the host think of this Yao Feifei?" The system asked again.

Li Quan felt a little strange that the system rarely took the initiative to ask questions, let alone such questions that were not related to the system itself and the collection of plant samples. He was puzzled, but the incomprehensible thing was not bad.

"She's mine...... A very good friend. Li Quan hesitated for a moment and replied.

The system was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said, "A friend is someone who cries with you, laughs with you, and is there for you when you need it." ”

Li Quan was stunned again.

He remembered that the system asked him what a friend was, and he answered the system, but he didn't expect the system to write it down. Can it understand what it really means to be a friend?

After a while, Li Quan came back to his senses from the chaos of thoughts, he stood up, raised his head, and a smile appeared on his face.

"System, you're right. A friend is someone who cries with you, laughs with you, and is there for you when you need it. Now, she needs me. How can I feel sorry for myself like a weakling here? There's a lot of work to do......"

His gaze regained firmness.

"Whatever happens, I shouldn't give up. Not working once, not working a few times, doesn't mean it doesn't work every time. What is holding me back now must have some kind of principle in it that I have not yet discovered. So, I should keep trying to modify until it works! ”

This time, the system was silent.
