After leaving the Counseling and Counseling Service Center, Chen Dao left school and boarded a bus.

There was no one on the train, Chen Dao sat by the window, his head leaning against the window, watching the scenery outside the window.

Just after hearing the conversation between the counselor and the senior senior, and hearing about the senior sister, Chen Dao suddenly understood that the root of his current state was not only related to the difference between the environment of this world and the other world.

If he was alone, it would be impossible for him to survive in the other world for thirty years anyway.

He was able to survive and continue to grow stronger, not only by himself, but also by many crossing partners like him.

They fight side by side, they cover each other, and they can even sacrifice themselves for their fellow soldiers.

Even the cowardly and timid people before the crossing will become brave after a period of survival in the other world.

Because cowardly and selfish people will not have partners who can support each other and fight side by side, and they will die soon.

And, in this cruel and hopeless world, there are so many things that are more frightening than death.

"I'm back...... Returned to this peaceful, safe world, and is trying to get back to the life it once was, but ...... What about them......"

Before returning from the crossover, he and his companions were attacking a high ground they had named "Desperate Volcano".

They didn't know what was on the high ground, only that it was probably a very powerful weapon, treasure and the like, and they were chased and followed by a group of giant beasts, and there was no way to escape, and they could only hope that something on the high ground could help them turn the situation around.

There were also a large number of monsters on the high grounds, desperately trying to stop them, as if guarding the thing.

They paid a huge number of casualties, and finally approached the top of the high ground, and in the end it was Chen Dao who got the thing.

Then, he didn't know what was going on, so he returned to the state before the time crossing, back to the "original origin".

How's it going, my companions?

Are they still alive?

What do they think when they see me disappear?

Thought I was dead and grieved for me?

Or is it despair in the face of countless monsters and beasts that you have chased?

After returning from the time, he never dared to think about these questions, and kept his attention on the world and himself.

But in reality, he is well aware that this is a problem that he cannot bypass.

If he can't face his heart and face this problem, there is no point in him going to a psychiatrist.

But...... How could he deal with it?

He didn't even know exactly how he got back and how he could help them.

If there was only one chance to come back, would he be willing to give it to someone else?

He found that he was afraid to answer the question.

When the bus arrived at the terminal, Chen Dao came back to his senses and got up to get off the bus after being reminded by the driver.

He heard a man and a woman behind him discussing in a low voice:

"It seems to be the little guy who cries and eats chocolate on Valentine's Day."

"It looks like it is."

"Why are you crying again, are you falling out of love again?"

"Who knows."

Chen Dao was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that his vision was hazy now, his cheeks were slightly wet, and he was crying on the bus just now?

Then he noticed that the man and woman behind him just now were the little couple who were in the same car with him on Valentine's Day.

It seems that the girls' school is the same as Chen Dao, and the boys' school is here.

Standing on the edge of the trash can that threw flowers a month ago, Chen Dao looked around, hesitated, and thought.

He didn't come here by accident, he was looking for someone.

Among those partners in the other world who were born and died and suffered together, the one who had the closest relationship with him was a girl named "Little Seven".

He and "Xiao Qi" have known each other in the other world for more than 20 years, and they have been together for the longest time among all their partners.

There was even a time when all their companions around them died in battle, and only the two of them were left, supporting each other, fighting side by side, struggling to survive.

"Xiao Qi" has saved him at least hundreds of times, and the number of times he has saved "Xiao Qi" is also more than three digits, the two can really block each other's guns, and they can completely hand over their backs to each other's partners.

Even if he was able to get that thing in the other world in the end, it was under the cover of "Xiao Qi" behind him who forgot to die.

He came here just to find "Xiao Qi".

Or to be precise, the "Little Seven" before the crossing.

It's also strange to say, he has known "Xiao Qi" in the other world for more than 20 years, and he has never known what the real name of "Xiao Qi" is, and he has never asked.

As for why it is called the nickname "Little Seven", he knows it.

"Xiao Qi" had just crossed over not long ago, and before he could awaken the energy in his body, he failed to find a way to stimulate his super powers, and he lost a finger in the process of being chased and killed by a beast from another world.

So later, a group of crossers who also spoke Chinese jokingly called her "Nine-Fingered God".

Later, he was called "Hong Qipo", and then referred to as "Qipo", and then slowly became "Xiaoqi" and "Ah Qi".

Surviving in the other world, there is basically no time to relax, in the dense forest, in the grass, in the sky, underground, in the water, danger is everywhere, even when they are chatting and talking, the strings in their hearts are always tight.

Sometimes partners who have been fighting side by side for a year or two find out after the other person dies that the total dialogue may be less than ten sentences.

Maybe that's why he didn't ask for "Xiao Qi's" real name - subconsciously they don't have much hope of returning to this world, and in the other world, no one knows when death will come - the more they know, the more painful it will be when life and death part.

But no matter what, he and "Xiao Qi" have known each other for more than 20 years and can almost be regarded as partners and comrades-in-arms who get along day and night, so compared to others, they still have more communication, almost everything to talk about, and they know a lot of information.

He knew that "Little Seven" was also a student before the crossing, and that he was in the same city.

But he didn't know exactly which school, which major, and which dormitory building he lived in.

However, through "Xiao Qi" told her about the small restaurants she often eats, the cafes she often visits, and the large chain bookstores that can only be reached by four bus stops, Chen Dao roughly surmised that the school she attended should be here.

While strolling around several colleges and universities that were relatively close, he recalled all kinds of information that "Xiao Qi" had talked to him about in the other world.

Then he found that in the other world, where he was often hungry and had no so-called cooking methods, the "gossip" that he and "Xiao Qi" talked about the most was actually related to eating.

More than once, they wondered what they would eat if they could return to this world.

Then they discussed the delicious food they had eaten before, and divergent their thinking to study the various foods in the other world, if there are conditions, how to cook them to be delicious, what seasonings to add, and how to deal with them.

Unconsciously, he had already walked to the door of a restaurant mentioned by "Xiao Qi", but it was not a meal at this time, and there was no one inside.

He didn't expect to stay in this restaurant, after all, this restaurant is not something that "Xiao Qi" goes to eat every day.

However, he is also ready to try the restaurant's signature dishes "Iron Will" and "Red Age" that "Xiao Qi" said - the former is fried tofu, and the latter is braised pork knuckle.

Just as he was thinking about whether to go in and eat now, or go to other places first, and wait until he was hungry to come back, a crisp voice not far away called out his name:

"Chen Dao! You actually came over to help? Why don't you tell me on WeChat first? ”

He looked back and found that it was a short-haired girl riding a shared bicycle, with delicate facial features, carrying a backpack, and she was followed by six young people who were also riding shared bicycles and carrying bags, both male and female, and it looked like they should be classmates.

"Hey, what's the look on your face?" The girl laughed.

After being stunned for a second, Chen Dao finally remembered that the short-haired girl in front of him was Ye Xiaojie, who he was extremely obsessed with and unrequited in love "thirty years ago".

"Why are you here, such a coincidence......" Chen Dao had no choice but to say.

As soon as she heard him say this, not only Ye Xiaojie, but also her companions behind her laughed.

"Wow, brother, you can say such an old-fashioned excuse so naturally, your acting skills are okay, and I will arrange a role with many lines for you later." A tall girl behind Ye Xiaojie said with a smile.

However, Ye Xiaojie saw that Chen Dao's expression really didn't look like acting, so she said strangely: "Didn't you watch my circle of friends' request to convene a video group performance?" ”

Only then did Chen Dao know that Ye Xiaojie and her club were going to make a short film and needed some group actors to come over to help, so they posted a message in the circle of friends, saying when and where they were going to make a film.

Although this place has not yet arrived at the filming location, Ye Xiaojie knows that Chen Dao's school is far away from here, and when she sees him here at this time, she naturally thinks that he has seen the circle of friends and came to help him.

"It seems that I misunderstood, but if you're okay, why don't you come and play together, we're all friends of the club here, and the self-made videos we shoot require a lot of group performances. It's not far away, just two or three hundred meters in front of Ronghua Park. ”

"I'm sorry, I still have some business." Chen Daowan refused.

"Okay, I'll get back to you then." Ye Xiaojie said, said goodbye to him, and continued to ride a shared bicycle with other classmates to the shooting destination.

Chen Dao was going to go to a few restaurants and restaurants mentioned by "Xiao Qi" in the vicinity, determine the location, and roughly construct the usual activity route of "Xiao Qi" in his mind.

The direction he walked was just in the same direction as the place where Ye Xiaojie and they took the video, and now they are setting up the scene in the fitness activity area of a small park to determine the personnel.

As he passed by their shooting point, Chen Dao slowly slowed down and looked over there, frowning slightly.

A few seconds later, Chen Dao suddenly walked quickly towards Ye Xiaojie's location.

Obviously, Ye Xiaojie had always noticed the appearance of Chen Dao stopping to watch on the side of the road just now, so as soon as he approached, he raised his head and smiled: "Chen Dao, you change the ......."

However, as soon as she raised her head, she was frightened by Chen Dao's cold eyes with a hint of fierceness, her breath was suffocated, and the whole person froze.
