The sky is grey. It is the rainy season recently and there are showers from time to time.

The thunder came from far away, and the dull roar exploded in my ears!

"Eh?" Xiangyi looked stunned, as if she couldn't believe it. It took her a long time to come to her senses. "Brother...you mean, the appearance of that person wasn't accidental?"

"Behind all contingencies, there is inevitability. According to the rules of the 'system' you mentioned, only souls on the verge of life and death can be selected. Then, you actually do not meet this rule. Because the injury you suffered is not that serious."

A year ago, Xiangyi was in a car accident and fell into a coma on the spot, but she woke up in just a few hours with only minor injuries.

Xiangyi frowned, trying to keep up with her second brother's pace, "That is to say, it is possible that I am not the one chosen to travel through the world..."

"That's right. Perhaps you just unconsciously became someone's scapegoat. Think about it carefully, not every world you go to is safe, right? Physical injuries are a small matter, but if your soul is wiped out, you will disappear forever."

"This logic is not difficult to infer. If it is just a trip around the world, then traveling around the world is a reward. But if it is a life-threatening mission, no one may be willing to accept it."

A gust of wind blew, and Xiangyi suddenly felt a little cold.

Xiangli paused for a few seconds, then took off his coat and put it on his sister's shoulders.

"This is just my analysis. It cannot be falsified. Just listen to it."

The girl's eyes fell on her brother's right hand, and her breathing became slightly choked.

If it is true as my brother speculated, maybe that person will still occupy her body...

What if my brother gets hurt again?!

I felt a gentle pat on my back, and my brother's gentle and polite voice rang in my ears: "Don't hold your breath. What if you get yourself hurt?"

Xiangyi's nose was a little sour. He remembered all her little habits...

"Brother, let's make a secret agreement. If one day I can't answer you, don't believe anything I say, and don't make any sacrifices for me."

Xiangyi tried hard to force a smile, but her smile was uglier than crying.

The family she valued most was trampled on so wantonly...

It's very possible that it wasn't an accident.

It's a man-made conspiracy.

"Don't laugh if you can't." Xiangli was pinched on the cheek and hesitated for a few seconds. "Will you cry for a while? Don't worry, brother has time, you can cry slowly."

He was really, really trying to comfort her.

"How about you cry for five minutes first?"

“…”

"Shall I time you?"

“………”

Xiangyi was amused by him, and her eyes turned red as she laughed: "Brother, you are still the same as always... You don't know how to coax people."

"Then let's decide on a code word, five minutes?"

"good."

After the brother and sister talked it out, Xiangyi inexplicably felt much more at ease.

It’s like I’ve been floating in the void and now I finally have a place to stay.

Steady, supporting her, she never has to worry about having no way out.

"By the way, how did big brother find out that something was wrong?" Xiangyi thought of the contract that big brother forced 'that person' to sign. It covered every detail, and although it was childish, it restricted 'that person' from doing anything wrong.

Simply put, small works are fine, but big works are not negotiable.

Xiang Li shook his head: "I don't know, but something bad must have happened..."
