Chapter 196 Chapter 145 Taking Back the Future

Pomo and Puis did not let the two Ni Lans meet. There was no need for the future Ni Lan to know what happened. They also did not want the present Ni Lan to know what happened and worry about it.

The Pu family's house is very big, and both Ni Lans don't like going out alone. Instead, they feel more at ease staying in a familiar house.

Instead, Ah Xing often went to look for Ni Lan from the future.

"Brother, come with me to have barbecue tonight!"

"good."

No matter which Ni Lan it is, she will always respond to Ah Xing's requests.

But Ah Xing seemed even sadder.

She had no way to stop the curse of the sacrifice. Even though Ni Liu was dead, the ten years of sacrifice still refused to let him go.

Puis is the busiest person. He is constantly strengthening the Pu family's control over the reefs and islands in the Deep South China Sea. On the surface, he still maintains his loyalty to the imperial capital of Saint Snow, but the fighting behind the scenes has already gone on for many rounds.

He must do this in order to fulfill his promise to A Xing and protect Ni Lan.

Pomo no longer wandered around like he used to. The past obsessions had disappeared, but of course new obsessions had emerged.

They knew the secret behind Ni Lan, but it would be better if they didn't know it.

There was absolutely no way to relieve the pain, and I could only watch Ni Lan die...

But, it is not a dead end, Pomeranian and Puisi are so sure, based on the farewell warning given by Ryuka Shokai.

In the future that Ni Lan was familiar with, Pomeranian and Puisi sacrificed themselves in order to stop Prince Gus.

Now, Prince Guts's plot could not continue because others were still at the other side.

If he wants to continue his "great cause", he must be resurrected, like Puys.

And Ni Lan, who experienced the future, returned to the past, and finally died ten years ago, also ended up on the other side.

They could also find a way to allow Ni Lan to be resurrected through this once-in-a-decade opportunity.

Ni Lan will have a healthy body, a bright future, and everything they have always dreamed of and should have.

With this in mind, Puis became even less concerned about the royal family.

Sooner or later they will become enemies of the royal family.

Even though they have a solution, they still feel the same pain as their friends whose lives are slipping away.

And, there is bad news.

Three months after the Ni family's demise, Ni Lan could no longer hear.

Ni Lan has accepted this well now, probably because she has been preparing herself mentally since she became the sacrificed one.

Next was death, which he had imagined many times, so he was not afraid of it.

Rather than fear, I feel more relief and a little bit of reluctance.

Pomo and Puisi tirelessly took Ni Lan to explore the world, and they never gave up on him even though he had lost his hearing.

For this expectation, Ni Lan did not give up. Before his death, he tried his best to respond to all the people around him who cared about him.

Ni Lan learned to recognize words written on his palm faster than learning Braille, and this is currently the only way he can communicate with his friends and sister.

However, even Ni Lan himself didn't know that his death would never come.

Because he has lost his future.

——

This was a day that seemed no different from any other.

Ni Lan, who knew everything, woke up from her sleep. Compared with the dream with colors and sounds, the reality with nothing was more like a nightmare.

All the things in his room were placed according to his own habits. Amo, Yi Si and A Xing didn't dare to move anything when they came into his room, for fear that he might lose something.

It is also one of the few ways that can increase Ni Lan's sense of security.

Ni Lan changed her clothes and washed up just like before, but everything she did was more solemn.

Until Pomo came to him and took him to have breakfast.

In fact, Bo Mo arrived very early, but he would rather pretend that he had just arrived than keep Ni Lan waiting for a long time.

His world had been silent for too long, and Pomo was unwilling to let it extend even for a second.

After Ni Lan was ready, Pomo carefully touched his right shoulder. This was the "secret signal". The one who touched the right shoulder was Pomo, the one who touched the left shoulder was Puyis, and Axing would directly hold his hand.

"Good morning, Amo."

Ni Lan greeted with a smile, then waited patiently for Bo Mo to write a response on his palm.

'Good morning, Alan, did you sleep well last night?'

Knowing that her good friend is by her side makes Ni Lan feel very comforted, especially on this "special" day.

"Yeah, I slept well."

At this point in time, Amo and Esther are still by his side, which proves that everything he wanted to do was successful.

Nothing made Ni Lan more excited than this fact.

As for himself? He never thought about himself.

Ever since both Ni Lans lost their hearing, they no longer had any way to let each other know of their existence other than through touch.

So there is no need to deliberately separate them like before. Today, Bomo uses the excuse of having something to accompany the other A-lan, and tomorrow Yi Si says he is busy and goes to accompany the other A-lan again.

Although it was a little strange to see two people who looked exactly the same, by now they were used to it.

But today is a completely different day.

"Alan, Yi Si." Ni Lan spoke rarely, "and A Xing."

Even though he couldn't hear it, the other Ni Lan looked at him as if he had noticed something.

Their starting point and end point are about to coincide.

"My time is almost up."

The fork in Pomo's hand hit the plate with a crisp sound, and the coffee that Axing was holding spilled out. Even Puis stood up in a state of disbelief.

Ni Lan was not the only one who was mentally prepared.

But they can never remain as calm as Alan.

Ni Lan didn't know how they would react, so she continued talking.

"Just live well and don't worry about Gus's affairs."

He no longer needs to hide his purpose.

"For you, this is the end, but for me, this is just the beginning."

The young man raised a brilliant smile, but in fact it was more than just a smile, as any intense expression rarely appeared on his face.

"I still have to get to know you in the past, and my life has just begun, so don't feel sorry for me."

He will gradually restore his five senses and gradually recognize this cruel but hopeful world.

Then, get to know the young Amo and Es in the best possible way.

So, don't feel sorry for him.

Ah Xing knew that her brother couldn't hear her, but she still couldn't hold back her tears. She could only cover her mouth to stop herself from crying out loud.

Pomo's hands were trembling slightly, and he was inevitably dragged into the vortex of memory.

He couldn't help but recall every detail of his time with Ah Lan, recalling the past that was full of danger but also hope.

Puys pursed his lips into a straight line and clenched his back teeth to try to maintain his composure despite his devastating emotions.

Until Pomo came to Ni Lan and patted his right shoulder.

Ni Lan obediently stretched out his hand, thinking that Bo Mo wanted to say something to him, but what he felt was a cold metallic sensation.

He stroked it carefully and found that it was the pocket watch he had given to Bomo a long time ago.

The golden pocket watch seemed to have lost its power and was no different from an ordinary pocket watch, lying quietly in his palm.

So Ni Lan pushed it back.

"This is a pocket watch I brought back from the past," Ni Lan explained. "It really has lost its power. It's not a very thoughtful gift. Ah Mo, you should accept it."

This pocket watch, like Ni Lan, has experienced the reversal of time and has flowed all the way back from the end point to the starting point.

Its true owner has left this world, so it has lost its power.

As a gift, it seems perfect.

So Pomo took this hard-earned "gift" from his hands again.

Then he began to write on Ni Lan's palm.

"Alan, do you really have to go?"

Ni Lan could feel Bomo's fingertips trembling, but he did not blame his friend for asking such a meaningless question.

He just nodded.

Bomo bit his lower lip tightly, fearing that he would cry.

But he also knew that Alan could neither see nor hear.

He continued writing on Alan's palm.

'sorry.'

The young man was stunned, not understanding why his friend would write these three words.

"Why should I be sorry?"

Bo Mo couldn't explain it, but he couldn't help but think that Ni Lan's bumpy life had nothing to do with them.

He just held Ni Lan's hand tightly but couldn't say anything.

Of course Ni Lan could sense the boy's trembling.

He stopped talking, groped his way closer, and then hugged Pomo.

"Amo." He did not feel sad. "It is my greatest luck to know you. You are my best friends."

"My future stops here, but you don't. Live on, become whoever you want to be, do what you want to do, be my eyes, my ears, my hands, my tongue, my nose, and see the world for me."

Everything he did was for today.

Don't feel sad, Amo.

Let's move towards the future with dignity.

——

After midnight, both Ni Lan disappeared.

This is the future he cannot enter.

Both Pomo and Puisi did not sleep all night, and Ah Xing fell asleep as if he had fainted due to excessive grief.

It was almost dawn when the conversation between the two finally came to a conclusion.

"Es, I'm going to leave Shennan for a while."

Nine years and eleven months have passed since Puyis last resurrected.

They only have the last twenty days to prepare for Ni Lan's resurrection from the other side.

"You go find Ms. Liuhua Chenghai first, I'll come after I make arrangements for Shennan."

"good."

No future?

An unprecedented determination flashed in the young man's eyes.

He just didn't believe it and insisted on tearing open a hole in this unreasonable world to let Ni Lan have a future!

must!!!
