Chapter 126 Chapter 97 See you tomorrow
Finally, there were only three people left.
Bomo sat with his legs slightly crossed, and the expression on Ni Lan's face said it all.
"If you have any questions, please ask."
Ni Lan also knew that this day would come, and he was prepared for his friends to make a rough guess, so he didn't feel guilty.
Anyway, I didn’t know what happened the day before, and I don’t have to care about things that haven’t happened the day after, so Ni Lan just took the attitude of avoiding today.
However, Ni Lan's frankness made the two of them a little uncomfortable.
There is a sense that he is ready to be 'interrogated'.
Puis planned to start with Pomeranian.
"Alan, you should know about Pomo's special ability."
The three people's understanding of each other's abilities was actually based on guesswork in the beginning.
Neither of them had clearly introduced their abilities to Ni Lan. Now that I think about it, they had actually assumed that he knew about it.
But now I still need to confirm it.
Ni Lan nodded.
"Pomo [predicted] the original future of the Siper Hanging City, as well as the last time at the Deep South Sea Reef Islands and the time before that at the Lanster School of Supernatural Powers." Puis said calmly, "But the worst results did not happen."
That was not the first time that Bo Mo had a "forecast", but the initial changes did start with the appearance of Ni Lan.
The blond boy looked at Ni Lan, "Alan, you changed the future by coming back from bad futures time and time again, right?"
Ni Lan really didn't expect that they could guess so closely. He lowered his eyes and did not answer.
Pomo was a little anxious. "I'm sure I haven't seen you, but you knew my name and I's name from the beginning. Alan, don't hide it from us anymore!"
He really couldn't understand why there was a need to hide this, but he also felt that Ni Lan would not bring up these things on her own initiative.
Ni Lan smiled, but this smile contained too many unspeakable emotions.
Helpless, hesitant, sad.
His friends were waiting for his explanation. He didn't want to lie, but he really didn't want to make them worry.
Ni Lan was silent for a long time, until both of them thought he was trying to fool them again, then he finally spoke.
"Because I believe in you..."
"Alan, even if you say so..."
“I just don’t trust myself.”
Pomo stopped in the middle of his rebuttal, his clenched fists trembling slightly, and looking at his friend's apologetic eyes he could not utter any words of blame.
He was serious and really felt that he was the most untrustworthy person.
"I don't know how far you have investigated." Ni Lan lowered her eyes. "My memory is very confused. I can't trust myself, but you are different."
He smiled with relief, "No matter what happens, you are the most determined people who will never change your will at will. I can trust you at any time."
Puis just felt like something was blocking his throat.
He suddenly realized that Ni Lan had experienced countless restarts, which one could be considered a success? Which one was the end?
In the repetition with no end in sight, Ni Lan has to start all over again each time. In the uncertain attempts, is he going to spend time explaining things to them again and again?
After the incident was over, Ni Lan also agreed to answer their questions. Their reluctance was actually completely unreasonable.
Time is the cruelest thing. It can make people forget something easily, and it can also make people miss something endlessly.
Maybe one day, they will forget Ni Lan...
This thought only lasted for a moment, yet it made Puis feel uncontrollably panicked.
He remembered what he had done to Ni Lan in Shennan at midnight under the moon.
Puis was eager to get to know Ni Lan better. He was used to the way he interacted with Pomo, and he was always afraid that the boy would disappear completely one day.
Compared to Pomo, he was not very good at expressing his emotions, and his intuition always told him that he must find ways to get to know Ni Lan better.
But isn't this also a kind of doubt?
Compared with Ni Lan's trust in them, his repeated tests seemed more like an unreasonable pressure.
"Alan...what do you remember..."
Puyis suddenly realized that the lost memory was the most urgent thing for Ni Lan.
Ni Lan knew what he was worried about.
"Don't worry, I won't forget you."
The end point of his journey, the motivation for him to wake up from zero time and time again, was all before his eyes.
Ni Lan never worries about things that he doesn't care about. The things he really needs to worry about are things that his current friends cannot perceive.
That's good.
——
I should be happy to hear this.
Ni Lan really treated them as friends, but for some reason, there was a feeling of depression flowing in Bo Mo's heart.
I don't know when it started, but his eyes always subconsciously followed Ni Lan.
It’s not about yearning, it’s not about attention, it’s not even about the pursuit itself.
Can we really go this far if we're just friends?
Ni Lan must be more important in his heart than he imagined, which is why he gets angry at Ni Lan for "hiding the truth" again and again.
But the most helpless thing is that even if they knew everything, they couldn't help.
In the long yet rapidly changing time, Ni Lan was alone.
His foresight and ease are all built on this loneliness.
No one could stand by his side, and he could only stay trapped in time, waiting for hope to come.
When I realized this, it was as if someone was strangling me by the neck and I couldn't even breathe.
Bo Mo subconsciously wanted to ask Ni Lan how many times this had happened, but he couldn't say anything.
"Alan..."
"What's wrong?"
Ni Lan had no idea what was going on in their minds.
"I'm very sad, and I feel powerless." Pomo had no problem expressing his true feelings. "I know that you don't need help, Lan, and you don't need our worry, but I'm sad because I can't help you. I'm afraid that you will disappear in a place where we can't see you without knowing it."
When he returned to Lanster Academy of Supernatural Powers from the South China Sea Reefs, he was really shocked when he heard Teacher Qian Che say that Ni Lan had been missing for a year.
Ni Lan was completely stunned.
In his heart, Pomeranian and Puisi were the omnipotent people. When did he become the omnipotent person in their hearts?
"The fact that I can come here and appear in front of you proves that things are going well."
Ni Lan was not lying, although their understanding of this sentence may be different.
Sure enough, Pomo fell into some kind of sadness again.
Obviously, the things he had predicted had changed, but he just couldn't be happy at all. Bo Mo really didn't want to see Ni Lan in this way.
But he had no choice.
"Don't worry, it's not as difficult as you think." Ni Lan tried to lighten the mood. He didn't want to leave a weird impression on his friends. "I'm right in front of you now, am I not?"
Neither of them answered. It was obvious that such an explanation could not comfort them.
But in the end they still had to compromise.
Pomo sighed and rested his chin on his hands.
"Alan, what are you going to do next? You should be the sixth seat of the Lightless Ones now."
It was a done deal, and they had no way of changing Ni Lan's will. They could only take this opportunity to ask more questions so that they could make preparations early.
"Of course I will join the Lightless Ones. As for what I will do." The boy's smile was innocent, but he said something shocking, "I want to overthrow this organization."
Both of them had exactly the same thought in their minds: It is true.
Ni Lan has always had a very clear goal in mind, and Pu Yisi finally responded.
"Alan, why do you choose to do these things?"
Yes, there is a problem that has never been solved. What did Ni Lan experience in the past? Why did Ni Lan choose to change all this?
Ni Lan was silent, and Puyis knew that he had asked the point, but he was not forcing his friend to answer.
"I can't answer that question right now...I'm sorry."
Sooner or later, Pomer and Puys will reach his starting point, and therefore sooner or later they will know the real truth.
But Ni Lan didn't want it to be now. He didn't want to cause trouble for his 'past' self.
In order to change the topic, Ni Lan took the initiative to talk about the Lightless Ones.
"After that I will go to the Lightless Ones and probably won't be in touch with you much." It wasn't long after they reunited, but they had to separate again.
Ni Lan is just like this, always on the road, just like the meaning of supernatural powers to him, time is so precious.
"Alan!"
"Did you know that the royal family is secretly looking for you?"
Ni Lan was obviously stunned.
"The royal family is looking for me?"
He really didn't seem to remember.
The atmosphere is quiet at this moment.
Ni Lan frowned. The memories he had at different points in time were not the same. Even if there were troubles, it was not something he could worry about right now.
But in order to reassure the two, he still responded with an uncertain tone.
"It seems... that's the case."
Puis sighed, as if he saw the fool Pomo again.
Be careful, that's a wanted warrant issued by the royal family!
"Alan, you don't remember it."
It is indeed very worrying. Memory should be certain, but it becomes elusive when it comes to Ni Lan.
"Anyway, I am now considered an officer of the Lightless Ones. I guess... a lot of debt is not a burden."
Ni Lan said this with a smile, trying to tell a joke, but it wasn't funny at all and neither of them laughed.
"...Feel sorry."
"Alan!!! You really make me so angry!"
Pomo stood up angrily, but could do nothing but clench his fists.
Puyis looked at Ni Lan and nodded, no longer agreeing with what Pomo said.
Ni Lan could only lower her head in embarrassment and accept the criticism from her two good friends.
Admit your mistakes sincerely, but be determined not to change.
