One hour ago.
Villa A834, candlelight flickers gently.
Li Xiaozhi signed for the metal box in front of the committee and did not refuse their request to open it on the spot.
Ninety-nine love letters were neatly stacked in the box, all recording the two people's love story.
No other details were mentioned.
The group looked at each other, thinking there were no clues, and then left.
Not long after Li Xiaozhi saw the group off, Wan Anna, wearing a bathrobe and drying her still-damp hair, walked out of the bathroom with a casual expression.
"What are you doing? Making such a fuss?" Li Xiaozhi asked, holding the box that was still open.
The keyhole of the metal box matched perfectly with the cross necklace around his neck.
"I'm confessing my feelings to you, aren't you surprised?" Wan Anna smiled charmingly.
"Stop joking, okay?" Li Xiaozhi frowned. "You've caused trouble and you're trying to hide here?"
“Then they have nowhere else to go…” Wan Anna looked at him with a pitiful expression.
Li Xiaozhi's helplessness was always tinged with indifference; even with Wan Anna's provocations, he wasn't very interested.
"Tell me, what exactly are you planning to do this time?" Li Xiaozhi casually tossed the box onto the sofa.
"Click—"
The lid of the metal box simply broke off.
Li Xiaozhi didn't even glance at it, and went straight to the bar to take back the wine he hadn't finished drinking.
It seems that ninety-nine love letters are not as comforting as a sip of wine.
Wan Anna smiled slightly, tying the belt of her bathrobe as she walked towards the luxurious sofa.
Looking at the "shattered" metal box, she admired her own "brilliant plan" but also felt that the result was very sad.
Yes, the correct way to open this box is to use Li Xiaozhi's necklace to open the first layer, and then open it completely with a slight bump.
She even predicted that Li Xiaozhi would disdainfully discard the love letter after seeing it.
"What is that?" Li Xiaozhi returned to the sofa with the wine and happened to see Wan Anna elegantly arranging the love letters she had written.
Li Xiaozhi's gaze was not on the love letters, but on the sealed document bag that had appeared out of nowhere.
Wananna treated this document with the same disdain as he treated love letters.
"Just some unimportant documents."
"document?"
Li Xiaozhi frowned slightly; he was all too familiar with Wan Anna's expression.
His intuition told him that this was exactly what the committee wanted.
Li Xiaozhi put down his wine glass, strode to the file folder, and opened it without hesitation.
"this……?!"
For half an hour, the room seemed to stand still.
Wan Anna stood quietly to the side, looking at the love letters one by one, as if recalling those innocent and beautiful past moments.
"Today, I met someone. During a mission, I unintentionally saved him, and he said he wanted to repay me with his body. It scared me..."
"He said I was amazing, getting accepted into the Nuojin Patrol Team at such a young age to rid the people of evil! He told me to keep it up, and I will!"
"He left without saying goodbye today, saying he couldn't ruin my future, but he clearly promised to repay me with his body. What a big liar!"
"I'm leaving for a new mission tomorrow. Will we never see each other again...?"
"Tonight, he actually came to see me. I cried and told him that tomorrow's mission was very dangerous. He comforted me, and suddenly I felt brave! Because... because... we're officially together now!"
He said, "We'll get married when I get back from my mission."
"I'm back... He was with a girl, his model partner. He said he was a bit busy and asked me to wait a little longer..."
"I have to go out on another mission..."
"He's got a new girl by his side again, and it seems like he hasn't mentioned marriage in ages. Could he have forgotten about it...?"
"Today, he said he wants to be with a girl, a very beautiful girl... If I help him fulfill this wish, he will grant my wish in return... I've been waiting for this day for so long!"
"So this is what it feels like to control someone else's destiny... even more wonderful than controlling your own..."
Li Xiaozhi finally understood... that Wan Anna had gone mad long ago.
It turns out that Xiao He had already returned.
It turns out that the person I am now is only separated from the beautiful figure I once longed for by this document.
It turns out that Xiao He is equivalent to Xiao He, and is equivalent to another "Lord of Ice".
The Lord of Ice possesses the power of Hanfulaf, the "God of Life." He can unleash a "Ten Thousand Year Revival" to destroy humanity, just as Xiao He can.
Because... she wasn't human to begin with...
Li Xiaozhi felt as if she were in a dream.
He knew that Xiao He was quite powerful as an elementalist, but he didn't expect her "background" to be so complicated.
Lost in her own "masterpiece," Wan Anna was oblivious to his growing reluctance to leave. She carefully folded the ninety-nine love letters, walked gracefully to his side, and asked tenderly, "Do you like this hundredth love letter?"
“You…” Li Xiaozhi tried to calm himself down.
If Xiao He didn't have such an extraordinary background, he would have taken her by force no matter what. But the "Ten Thousand Years of Revival" was a matter of great importance, and it wasn't something he could decide on a whim.
After all, I love this wonderful world so much, how could I possibly want it to be destroyed?
As an ordinary human being, how could I be willing to face the devastation and apocalyptic crisis?
Wan Anna was no longer the Wan Anna she used to be, and Li Xiaozhi couldn't help but feel a sense of fear towards her.
