"Look, doesn't it look even more like you now? If Mei saw you like this, she would be heartbroken, wouldn't she?"
"..."
"They are all gone."
Kevin said this after a moment of silence.
There wasn't much sadness in it; it was as if it were simply stating a fact.
But this fact is mixed with too much pain.
At this moment, the strongest fusion warrior of the former civilization was like a child who had suffered greatly returning to the side of his loved ones to complain.
It's hard to imagine that Kevin would show such a side of himself. If the executives of World Serpent saw this, they might feel like their idol has been shattered.
But as MEI said, Kevin is actually just an ordinary big boy.
Although he has some exceptional talents, if fate hadn't forced him down that path, being a salaried programmer working 996 hours a day would probably have been Kevin's ideal destiny.
Instead of being a 'hero' who is burdened with the expectations of others and held hostage, as is the case now.
"I'm sorry, Kevin, for putting so many unreasonable expectations on you."
A hint of apology lingered in her sweet voice, making Kevin's nose sting with tears.
But he was no longer the boy he once was, and he wouldn't lose control and cry because of this.
At most, there were some small, inexplicable ice blocks on the ground.
They're still warm.
Ps:
After traveling to the Starry Sky Railway World, he obtained a Starry Sky Train and the ability to travel through the world. He accidentally picked up a beautiful girl named "Firefly" and after this beautiful girl ate up all his savings for two and a half years, Wen Sheng decisively decided that he wanted to make money! Make money!
"Look at the rootless tree branching out, look at the boundless water rippling... Drive the train that belongs only to you, and create that..."
Wen Sheng: "What? Train! Transporting goods! Making money!"
"..."
Liuying: "I'm sorry... our conductor, he... he's not in his right mind."
The little boy with white hair and blue eyes was reflected in the purple-gold pupils. The rememberer, whose words were interrupted, was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
"It's okay. Come to my room tonight. I'm quite knowledgeable about memory treatments~"
Liuying: "? I always feel like something is weird."
Wen Sheng: "Pull the goods! Make money! Pull the goods! Make money!"
Liuying: "Pulling goods... making money? But you are not losing..."
Wen Sheng: "I'm not a downtrodden dog!"
Chapter 296 LOL, you think you can trap me like this? I...!
Warm ice crystals, a novel experience.
This is a feeling that even Paradise Airi's memories did not retain.
After all, her memories only extend up to that final dinner party.
For Jiang Qiao, this was also a unique feeling.
Compared to mere words, experiencing something firsthand with your physical senses is undoubtedly a more direct and comprehensive way of feeling it.
Her slender hand, holding the mark, pressed it against her chest. Through her youthful bosom and beating heart, it was as if her body was responding to this emotion.
Just as she once said.
My tears froze, but...it felt so warm...
However, for Kevin now, the shy boy from back then has changed a lot.
The uncontrollable outburst, his absolute 'loss of control', lasted only a moment, even accompanied by the melting of the warm ice crystals, making one doubt whether everything had really happened. Only the dampness left between his fingers proved that everything before was not a bubble.
"Long time no see, Alicia."
His tone was as flat as ever, just like his face, revealing little emotion.
"How calm! I thought you'd be a little more excited when you saw me."
"But after all, it's Kevin~ Thinking about it that way, it doesn't seem so strange after all."
Ten slender fingers, as delicate as scallions, pressed together, their fingertips touching and supporting each other. Soft, cherry-colored hair swayed gently with the movement of her body. 'Alicia' opened her bright blue eyes, which revealed her charm, and smiled sweetly.
"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me like that? It's really rude to stare at a girl's face like that. If Mei knew, she might get jealous. Hmm, just kidding. Knowing her personality, she definitely wouldn't mind, right?"
"But aren't you going to say anything?"
Kevin remained silent.
In fact, even with numerous pieces of evidence, Kevin still had reservations before actually meeting the other person.
But after seeing it with my own eyes...
That familiar feeling left him speechless for a moment—it was just right, exactly the same taste as back then!
If you were to say that what's in front of him is fake, Kevin would have to pull out his Skyfire and give the person who said that a perm.
—Do you dare say she's fake?
But apart from that, Kevin found himself unable to utter a single word when faced with the girl in front of him.
It's not because I have nothing to say, but because I have so many things to say and so many questions in my mind.
When he finally saw the other person in front of him, he didn't know what to say.
Ultimately, even 50,000 years ago, Kevin had no way to deal with Alicia.
He hesitated for a long time, and finally blurted out a sentence:
"Are you here to stop me, Alicia?"
'Alicia' blinked.
Then, a 'pfft' sound came out.
"Haha, what is this?"
"Kevin, Kevin, after all this time, this is what you wanted to say when you see 'me' again?... Hmm, that's definitely Kevin's style."
"In that case, fine."
After smiling for a moment, the pink-haired girl, supporting her slender waist, pointed her hand to form a gun shape and said with a smile:
What if I answer: Yes?
"..."
"Does it really have to be this way?" Kevin asked in a strange tone after remaining silent.
The voice remained as cold and clear as ever, but it carried a hint of difficulty and sadness.
But this also undoubtedly reveals his attitude towards it.
—We will not compromise.
Just like how Kevin wouldn't stop even if his former best friend Sue stood in his way.
As the executor of the Stigmata Project, he is a 'hero' burdened with the prayers of millions.
Even if Alicia stood in front of her, the outcome would be no different.
"I'm sorry, you should know that."
“Alicia will never agree to or allow that plan to be carried out.”
When the Stigmata Project was first introduced, Alicia strongly opposed it and even deliberately approached MEI.
But the result was as expected—it ended in regret.
Because they need a plan that is guaranteed to succeed.
After that, Alicia also lost the ability to stop the plan.
But if we put it back into this era and in front of this plan...
Given Alicia's personality, she would never stand idly by.
In fact, both Jiang Qiao and Kevin had already anticipated this outcome.
Their deliberate avoidance of each other was not because they didn't want to see each other, but simply because—when they did meet, they couldn't get along in a way that allowed them to compromise.
This is a contradiction in stance, which does not change with the change of identity, and is even more acute after putting on the guise of [Alicia].
Because this is something Alicia would do, and had to do.
However, this applies to everyone.
It's not a good experience to be comrades who once entrusted their lives to each other but are now forced to fight each other.
Especially for Kevin—he witnessed the other person's departure firsthand.
