Chapter 575: Strengthening
Even so, she did not get angry. Even if it was not love, the relationship between her and Sora was beyond ordinary friendship and companionship.
The definition of life and death may be too heavy, but now, there is no doubt that they are the people who understand each other best in this world. At dawn, Awanyin Lingyu rushed into the laboratory with full kinetic energy and greeted the empty space warmly. At this moment, Kongkong had already prepared a table full of interstellar delicacies. "Oh my God! It's the craftsmanship of Brother Kongzhi, I won't be polite!" Awanyin Lingyu sat down without hesitation and devoured the interstellar dishes that were his.
Makise Kurisu, who was standing by, obviously didn't have enough rest. She leaned towards the table tiredly, attracting the surprised look of the girl eating next to her. She had been hostile to Makise Kurisu before, and naturally avoided all non-research contact. But now, when no one showed up, why did she choose to sit next to Amanone Suzuha? Did she lose her way in her sleep?
Makise Kurisu didn't think about it. She noticed a silver strand of hair on Amanon Suzuha's head that was playfully raised. She slowly raised her fingers and gently smoothed the messy hair. This made Amanon Suzuha tense up and she was at a loss.
Did she take the wrong time travel potion? Smoothing out Amanon Suzuha's hair, Makise Kurisu folded her hands on the table, supporting her heavy head. Turning her head to look at the dumbfounded girl, Makise Kurisu couldn't help but chuckle. She knew that this future warrior had an extraordinary origin, but at first glance, he was still an innocent child.
Seeing Makise Kurisu smiling at her, Awanone Suzuha immediately felt despised and eagerly swallowed the food and interstellar drink in her mouth, and was about to refute. However, "The experiment to eliminate D-mail will start tonight." The words hung in her throat and disappeared in an instant. Staring at the deep tranquility in Makise Kurisu's eyes, Awanone Suzuha had no way of understanding the original intention of this decision.
Different from others, the change of world line only modifies partial memory. Losing some memory, but the new memory that replaces it still allows everyone to remain the same. For her, Makise Kurisu, this time of crossing the world line is of great significance. Now, she is no longer indifferent to the words of Sora, and what Sora said has been confirmed one by one. Those words that were said out of shock at the time were indeed true in the original β world line——
[The Suffering of Makise Kurisu] This is a fact that cannot be erased even if you travel back to the starting point, and it is a scene that will definitely be repeated in the future.
Therefore, Makise Kurisu understands that returning to the starting point means killing the self that exists in this world at the moment, and the self that she first knew died on that day. The fate of Shiina Mayuri makes Makise Kurisu decide to abandon herself.
"Why..." "All I did was restore the proper order." Makise Kurisu said in a cold tone. "On the contrary, I, who was supposed to be dead, was able to devote myself to the research and development of the time machine, and even achieved success, which is a huge surprise." What Makise didn't say was that she also met someone who really cared about her... Although they knew each other for such a short time, it felt like they had been together for years. Their bond was like a magical cosmic miracle.
Looking back now, even though they only knew each other for a day and a night in this world line, she and Kong Bai had already had long-term contact in the previous world line. Even though she lost those fragments, Kong Bai's memory still carries it to this day. This also explains why, even when they quarreled, she never really got angry and felt a subtle intimacy. Perhaps from the moment he crossed the world line just to find her, her rebirth was a preparation for a reunion.
Oh, as a firm believer in rationality and science, I actually have such emotional thoughts at this moment.
Makise Kurisu noticed Awanon Suzuha's tangled face and smiled. "Let's not talk about me for now." Chewing the interstellar delicacies carefully bought by Kongbai, she admired the power of its food to win the hearts of the stars... "By the way, Awanon," she turned to talk to Awanon Suzuha during the meal, "It just so happens that there is still a full day of daylight today. You said that you wanted to return to this era and meet your father again. How about taking this time to look for him?" The great turmoil last night has made the whole city panic, and the high-level security has been strengthened. Even if they don't know the truth, SERN members dare not act rashly in the near future. The next few days should be relatively quiet.
"Uh huh... that's true." Awanyin Lingyu remembered the note left at the counter in the morning. Manager Brown Tube and Xiao Zhuo had already left in the night. After seeing the extraordinary power displayed by Blank, he must have guessed that the top management of SERN was horrified... In this virtual society full of surveillance, even a person like him at the bottom might be able to temporarily escape from the boundless surveillance network. Now, while the situation is still uncertain, the best time for him to escape has come. In addition, he also left the shop and property certificate as a symbol of making up for Blank's loss.
But sadly, he knew nothing about the 4.4 world line, and had never foreseen the cruel reality that his life would return to its original track after Blank's world travel. Can he touch the edge of redemption again? Awanyin Lingyu has no answer to this.
