"Look over there," Xia Zichen pointed toward the distant alleyway. "They" from three years ago were walking toward them in the rain. Back then, he didn't yet possess the Star Mark, and her Wind Pocket didn't smell of lavender. But as two coffee beans simultaneously slipped from their pockets in reality and rolled to their feet, a flicker of confusion and familiarity crossed their eyes.

The black cat squatted on the railing, with its tail curled up around the space-time anchor point: "Meow~ Now you know why you in every universe like to carve 'waiting for your return', right? Because since the first space-time, you have been waiting for each other." Before the words fell, the anchor point suddenly exploded into countless points of light. One of the points of light drilled into Lin Yue's pocket three years ago and turned into the wrapper of the Courage Candy that she often bought later.

The starship's repair system began to operate, and Old Zhang's holographic projection reappeared, only with a few more strands of white hair at his temples. "Children, Star Track has detected anomalies at three new spacetime nodes... This time, the fluctuations originate from a universe where everyone is BE." Lin Yue and Xia Zichen exchanged glances and tightened their hands. The Wind Bond and the Star Pattern Light filaments intertwined, drawing a symbol of a contract across time and space in the air.

Xia Zichen looked down at the newly engraved mark on the hilt. This time, it didn't read "Waiting for Your Return," but "Together We Go to the Game." In Lin Yue's Wind Pocket, the courage candies and memory candies were slowly merging, the words on the wrappers constantly shifting: "To us throughout time and space—No matter how many reincarnations I pass through, I will always hold your bloodied hand at the end of the rainy alley."

The black cat yawned and threw the gears of the pocket watch into the starry sky: "Next stop, BE Universe. Remember to bring enough lavender, the rain there smells like rust." As the gears turned, the starship leaped into the turbulence of time and space again, leaving behind a string of ripples composed of star patterns and wind runes, slowly spreading in the depths of the universe, like a vow that would never fade.

Foreshadowing for the next chapter:

1. "They" in the BE universe are all dead, but the time of death on their tombstones is synchronized with the "present" in reality.

2. After the Courage Candy and the Memory Candy are combined, a new ability is generated: the ability to briefly see the other person's perspective flashback

3. The black cat's true identity is the conscious clone of the original creator, and its gear glasses can analyze the "sweetness value" of the time-space paradox.

4. “They” who picked up the coffee beans three years ago are unconsciously reorganizing their core according to the trajectory of the future.
