Chapter 254 National Memorial Day

Qiao Susu turned her head away, trying to avoid the question.

However, Zongfang, contrary to his usual behavior, pressed forward step by step.

"According to what you just said, in the second timeline, you found that Luka was gone, and then you went back to the past to try to change it, so there was a third timeline. So what happened in the third time that made you go back to the past again and again?"

Qiao Suisui opened her red lips slightly, but hesitated to speak. She didn't dare to look into Zongfang's eyes, but at this moment, all the men's eyes were on her, making her feel a little pressured.

Karl couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he stood in front of her to block Zongfang's gaze, "What are you doing? Normally, if someone says something harsh to her, you look like you're going to kill someone. What are you going to do now? Don't force her."

Zong Fang grabbed Karl's collar and pushed him aside in annoyance, "If you don't ask clearly, what if she goes back someday?"

Karl was startled, frowned slightly and stopped talking.

Unusually, Luka did not step forward to stop it at the first moment. Instead, he stared at Qiao Susu closely, waiting for her answer.

Zongfang knelt on his knees in front of her and grabbed her shoulders to prevent her from dodging.

"Tell me, why do you keep going back?"

Qiao Susu lowered her eyes, the corners of her eyes were already red, her eyelashes were trembling, but she still said nothing.

Seeing that she was about to cry but refused to speak, Zongfang became furious, but he always controlled the strength of his hands so that they were not too heavy while still holding her tightly.

"If you don't say it, I'll say it for you."

He took out a letter and held it in front of Qiao Susu.

"In the first timeline, Anubis died and you were very sad, so you followed him." Zongfang gritted his teeth and swallowed the word, very evasive, and continued: "But I don't know why you came back, and you went back to the past to find a way to save him.

In the second timeline, you failed and even changed Scorsese's ending, so you went back to the past. The same thing happened in the third timeline, until you returned to school and gave this letter to your past self. Every key node written here is something you have experienced before, and you know how to choose the best solution, so you teach it to your past self, trying to change the future by changing the past.

You were trying to save Anubis the whole time, right?

You risked your life for him again and again, but you never told me, right? You don't believe I can solve these problems with you, right? "

"no!"

Qiao Suisui was crying silently under the repeated questioning. Her eyes were red, her voice was a little hoarse, and her volume was unconsciously raised: "You are gone, Luka is gone, Ash is gone, you are all gone, what should I do! What can I do?"

The pressure since the time travel began was like a taut string that broke with a buzz.

Perhaps she was too tired, or perhaps she was thankful, or perhaps it was because they were all by her side at the moment and everything was finally back to the way she wanted. Qiao Susu broke down and cried, almost unable to breathe. However, the sadness, sorrow, and heaviness that had accumulated in her heart were swept away with the tears, like a release of pressure.

Zongfang had already hugged her tightly the moment she said that, protecting her head with his big hands and kissing her forehead with tears in his eyes.

Luka immediately stepped forward, squatted beside her and patted her back to help her calm down.

Liberi stood there in a daze, his head buzzing, and he couldn't hear anything around him. He could only see Qiao Suisui, who was in tears.

What did she just say? She said she was gone, so she kept going back to the past. Was it because she couldn't accept the fact that he was dead that she kept changing. She also said that she had died before. What happened in the first place? So, was everything today the result of her insistence over and over again and never giving up? Karl's pupils trembled, and he thought of countless things in an instant, "Photos."

Then he suddenly turned his head to look at Anubis and asked in a trembling voice: "Which day did she return to? Which day was it when you saw her?"

Anubis said, "National Memorial Day."

Carl's figure shook.

The day the former leader was assassinated was designated as a national memorial day, and all federal citizens were required to observe a moment of silence. On that day, he experienced memory loss, and a photo of Zong Yan at the crime scene appeared in his mind.
His words lost all joking and irreverence, becoming toneless: "Who killed the former leader?"

Qiao Susu raised her pair of red eyes with a determined expression.

"I killed him. And Li, I also killed him."

Hearing this, Karl raised his head and gasped heavily. He felt a sharp pain in his heart. When the other men heard her words, their eyes were filled with shock and distress.

"You also erased my memory?"

"Yes."

30 minutes, he and she had been together for 30 minutes. In 30 minutes, she killed two people, kidnapped Zong Yan, and before leaving, she even left him a chip to gain freedom!

Karl looked at Qiao Suisui, his eyes full of pain. He shouted hysterically: "Why. Why didn't you tell me that I could kill him? Just tell me! I'll do it! Why do you have to do this by yourself?"

Carl killed someone for the first time when he was a child. He and Kay were trained as federal scouts, and the targets of their first shooting training were living people. Although they were all prisoners who were imprisoned for crimes, the feeling of shooting at paper targets was completely different from shooting at real people. He killed the man with one shot in the chest.

Snow leopards have very sensitive hearing, and Carl hates this sensitivity.

Because he could even hear the 'pop' sound as the bullet pierced through the flesh, hitting the flesh and then passing through the chest cavity and out.

After that day, he gained some knowledge: when a person dies, blood gushes out, not splashes out as he had imagined.

After that, he vomited for ten days, no matter what kind of nutrient solution he ate. After this time, he had no desire for any food or nutrient solution except for the necessary growth intake, especially when he was doing tasks, he would not eat if he could.

This is what it feels like to kill someone.

Carl knew that he had become numb to the feeling of killing because he had gotten used to it and swallowed it over and over again in subsequent training and missions, but that didn't mean it wasn't scary.

But the person he had always protected, the person he held in his hands, the person he had to cover her eyes even when seeing cruel scenes, the person he was afraid would melt in his mouth, actually killed someone, and even took pictures of the bloody scene with his own hands, just to leave him a bargaining handle in the future.

Carl was so heartbroken that he fell to his knees in exhaustion.

After hearing her words, Luka's fingertips could no longer control the trembling, and he hated himself at this moment.

He held Qiao Susu's cheeks with his hands, and his eyes were filled with guilt.

"I'm sorry, I'm incompetent."
