Walking the Fox

Jiulou Kingdom, during the interception time.

The street is very lively, people from different worlds are living their day happily, everyone's face is filled with happy smiles.Standing at the door of Little Wolf's house, the silver-haired boy staring at the expressions of the people on the street and the surrounding environment finally realized why everything here gave him such a strong sense of disobedience, because the time in this place is constantly repeating itself.

As the sun set and the time returned to the night, the child who had been in contact with them left with his mother and sat in a chair in the living room. The silver-haired boy spoke for the first time today.

"The number of people is decreasing, and...if this continues, we may get lost in this world." I have been observing, not speaking, not acting, just quietly observing this world full of violations.

After the observation of the silver-haired boy, he seemed to understand why this world was called 'Intercepted Time'. "These people who repeat the same time again and again have changed because of our appearance." Seeing that they were silent, Hitsugaya Toshiro continued.

"Those people are living people..." Hei Gang asked, his eyes became sharp.

"At least I can be sure that they are not phantoms." Fay stood at the window, looking out at the empty and desolate outside.

The night is not like the day, the moment the night falls, the world enters silence.

"Then...then as long as we do something here, what will those people become?" An ominous premonition rose in Mo Ge Na's heart.

He closed his eyes, opened them again, and the little wolf's brown eyes flashed with deadly anger. "People who exist in that intercepted time, repeating the same actions in it. Even so, they are alive. Repeating the same things, not going forward into the future to maintain their existence."

"Once there are people who don't do the same thing repeatedly, the balance will collapse..." The silver-haired boy looked at the outside world with his pair of emeralds. He clearly knew that they could not stay here, otherwise... the people here will eventually die. One day it will all disappear.

The death here is different from the death he thinks, there is no soul, yes, after the people here dissolve, they die, but why do the people after death have no soul?Thinking of this, he felt something was wrong, what was it?Just as he was about to turn around and prepare to ask Little Wolf something, his brain seemed to be hit by something, which made him unable to cheer up. At the same time, Little Wolf and the others did the same.

The next day, the sun rose, and the streets returned to their original hustle and bustle.

Walking on the street, seeing fewer and fewer people, watching the little boy who kept repeating one thing, Xiaolang's heart hurt more than anyone else.

"You should have found out, right?" The silver-haired boy looked at the little wolf with bright emerald eyes sizing him up. "Qianye and the person you are looking for are not here, but in that ruin."

"Which Sakura is it?" Fay asked, his eyes slamming into the little wolf's.

"It was Sakura, who was always by my side before being imprisoned..." He replied, his eyes glanced elsewhere.Immediately afterwards, he turned around and ran towards the ruins.

And Fayi, Heigan, and Toshirō Hitsugaya are also preparing to keep up. In fact, among the four of them plus a Mogola, only the silver-haired boy can reach the ruins quickly, because his Shunpo is really fast.

"Big brother, where are you going? It's dangerous to leave the town." The people in the town are melting one by one, except for the little boy, who has the same smile on his face as when we first met. The scene is inexplicably a little weird. "Stay overnight? Brothers...my mother's cooking is delicious!" As he spoke, the little boy's face began to melt. Looking at him, a trace of unbearable anger flashed across the little wolf's eyes, and he rushed In the past, he stretched out his hand and grasped the opponent's hand, with a pain like forbearance on his face. "... Time without progress is the same as death. However, the actions we are going to take next are not a talisman for this." At this point, he paused for a moment, looking at the little boy's face With a bright smile on his face, the little wolf couldn't help hugging him in his arms. "I went here... to fulfill my wish, and this retribution... I will bear it all by myself." After speaking, the little wolf resolutely let go of the little boy who was melting and almost gone.

Go forward, never look back, he has someone to save and protect.

"Payo made of apples, you will definitely like to eat it." The little boy didn't understand what the little wolf said, nor what he meant. He just repeated what happened yesterday, and kept repeating it until the balance collapsed. Until he also died here, like his mother and the people around him, completely vanished into nothingness.

When the little wolf stood beside them, the silver-haired boy slowly said: "If you don't move forward, you will have no future. If you stay where you are, you will never know what will happen next. You have done nothing wrong. You don't need to bear these sins on your shoulders." On myself, if this is your sin, then it is also my sin, I... I am committing the same sin as you. "

"Mr. Hitsugani is right, we are the same." Fay, who was walking on the right side of the little wolf, touched the little wolf's hand, and he could only use this way to comfort him. On himself, the brown-haired boy who took care of everything.

"Thank you." The little wolf closed his eyes, and a reassuring expression appeared on his face.

******

Through a large mirror, Fei Wang looked at Xiaolang and the others who were heading towards him, and smiled. "People with wishes are all the same. When your wishes conflict with others, you have to make a choice. Do you want to give up your wishes? Or trample on other people's wishes in order to realize your wishes? Now, you really... For my wish, I abandoned the people in the town. We are the same, even our wish is the same...you say, right?" After speaking, Fei Wang turned and looked at the girl on the big chair behind him .

The girl's long black hair spread out, and a few strands fell on the ground, intertwined like a big black spider web.If it weren't for the faint ups and downs of her chest, just looking at her pale face with a tinge of blue, her tightly closed eyes and pale lips, she would have been thought to be a dead body.

"It's really strong enough to survive with only faith after the magic power has been exhausted." Walking slowly to the chair, bending over, and reaching out to caress the other's face that was getting colder, Fei Wang stared sharply at the unconscious man. girl. "I really didn't expect that the witch didn't tell you the truth of that matter. The missing memory was confused, so that I even forgot what I had done? It's really stupid. I tried my best not to want him to be implicated. Come in, but in the end, I still can't live up to the arrangement of fate..."

"...You are more stupid than me, Fei Wang..." The girl who closed her eyes opened her eyes, and her vision became clear little by little, all focusing on the man in front of her.Generally speaking, at this time, she should speak viciously to this man, after all, the chief culprit who caused her so far is him.

But at this moment, she didn't even have the strength to move her fingers. The pain of the separation of magic power and soul seemed to divide her into two, and she was torn apart and skinned. After trying that pain once, I don't want to do it again. Try it a second time.Blinking his eyes, his eyes drifted to the ceiling above his head.

The reason why I met him was for the present or the future?

She didn't want to remember too much anymore, those memories that suddenly flooded into her mind almost made her collapse, how could Echizen Chiba have forgotten it?That period she should never forget... After Hitsugaya Toshiro died in that battle, a thought flashed in her heart, yes, it was just a small thought in her heart, it could also be called a wish , that is 'I hope you can come back to me', only at this moment, because of the magic power in her body, time can be turned back, and she also lost that part of the memory in a short time, as for what she paid The price... is half of her soul and her future time.

The crime she committed was the same as that of Little Wolf. She is actually the same kind of person as Fei Wang, they are all the same.

"My sins are too serious. Due to the backwardness of time, Dongshiro's future may take a different path, and because of this, the future of everyone related to him will change. My shaking has caused so many people to be killed. Involvement, I really have to take most of the responsibility." When she said this, her expression was very calm, as if everything that happened at this moment had nothing to do with her.

"Fei Wang, do you want to kill me?" Echizen Chiba did not ask him a rhetorical question, but used an affirmative sentence.

"I've got what I want, your life and death have nothing to do with me." Fei Wang looked at the girl gloomily.

"Yeah, we have nothing to do with each other." After finally being able to do it, Echizen Chiba reluctantly sat up from the chair, staring at her hands that could be said to be adults, she smiled. "Take away the magic power in my body, and correspondingly let me temporarily return to my real age. After a long time, I almost forget what I looked like when I grew up." Originally, she and Echizen Chia were one person, not the current sister form. Xiaolang said that her soul would be missing because he went back in time. Now think about it, what does it have to do with him?The decision she made herself had nothing to do with Little Wolf.

She remembered that at that time she had no older sister, she was the only daughter of Echizen Ryoma and Echizen Satsuki.

The so-called memories are just confusing because they overlap with the current memories.

Standing up in front of Fei Wang, she raised her hand and pulled the white kimono she had changed for some reason.Echizen Chiba raised her eyes and looked directly into the other's eyes, and said indifferently: "Your wish will not come true, Flying King Reed. Even Clow Reed, the wish that cannot be fully realized, are you sure?" possible."

"Is it impossible? Don't worry, this wish will come true soon. Even if everything is at stake, I will take back my lost life again." With his hands clenched into fists, Fei Wang showed an expression of certainty on his face.

Frowning slightly, she didn't continue talking, instead of getting entangled with this person, it's better to leave now.

But how far can she go?

"Can I leave?" she asked.

"Whatever you want." Fei Wang said nonchalantly, restraining his expression.

In fact, Fei Wang is not afraid of Echizen Chiba going out, because she can't go very far with her now, stripping off all the magic power in her body, causing her soul to return to its original incompleteness, and now she is all evil spirits and evil spirits The most wonderful food for the soul.

Of course she knew what Fei Wang was thinking, the girl just twitched the corners of her mouth and sneered.

She and Cub and April [-]st both made choices.

She hopes to go to the future and be with Dongshiro.

Coyo wants the reversed, stopped time to move forward, in order to save both Sakuras.

And April [-]st is the same, choose to move forward, in order not to let yourself disappear.

When she came outside, she subconsciously bit her lip when she saw the motionless killer dolls who had attacked her.

These are dolls made from the souls collected by Fei Wang.

No pain, no crying, no emotion at all.

Instead of killing her, Fei Wang was very polite to her by turning her into a puppet.

The more she walked, the faster the strength in her body was lost. Without the support of that magical power, the soul in her body became more unstable.

The cold palace is just like the Xuye Palace, she shivered from the cold.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, she stepped out of this place and came outside, which was the pool area deep in the ground of the Jiulou Kingdom ruins.

The powerful fusion of magic power and spiritual power outside came from all directions, almost crushing her soul, and suddenly there was pain in her chest. She half-kneeled on the ground, panting heavily, and her vision was a little blurred. She leaned against the rock wall and raised her hand.

Her hands were shrinking, and she could clearly feel the changes in herself.

Are you going to go back to when you were 12 years old?However, it hurts so much, I can hardly breathe, it seems like a mountain is pressing on my body...

Consciousness finally returned to darkness, she passed out on the ground, not knowing what happened behind...
