Chapter 342 Two Girls, the Blue Truth
eye.

blue eyes!
The azure light in the pupils was as strange and bright as that of the time-space assassin.

This means... the girl looking back from the motorcycle is also a [Time Traveler]!
The girl also has to look at the road ahead while driving the motorcycle.

So he turned his head briefly, told Lin Xian his name, then immediately turned back to look forward, stepped on the accelerator, and drove at high speed on the deserted road.

She was not wearing a helmet.

The tiny ponytail behind her head, as small as a hamster, fluttered in the night wind and was blown straight.

The ends of her hair swayed on the tip of Lin Xian's nose, sweeping it vaguely.

"You are also a time traveler." Lin Xian said.

"Yes."

The girl leaning forward and stretching her arms to ride the Harley motorcycle shouted into the night wind:

"It's obvious that I, like the girl who was chasing you, am a time traveler. And judging from the degree of blue light in my eyes, it's not difficult to tell that we traveled through time not far apart."

?

Lin Xian grasped this knowledge point:
"You mean, the blue pupil color caused by time-space rejection is determined by the time span of the time traveler? If the time traveler comes from the future several decades later, then the light may be weaker, so weak that it is difficult for people to detect the glow."

"And if it comes from a few hundred years from now, the brightness will be like yours, like a blue light bulb... I originally thought that this brightness was related to the so-called energy in your body."

This is the end.

The case is solved.

Lin Xian once discussed with Liu Feng the issue of the brightness of a time traveler's blue eyes.

Lin Xian believed that the blue light in the eyes was simply an energy or battery indicator. When the time traveler was about to disappear, the light would become dim.

Liu Feng, however, believes that this brightness represents the intensity and warning level of space-time rejection. In other words, the more dangerous and powerful the enemy is, the brighter the pupil color will become and the easier it will be to detect due to space-time rejection.

So far, both of them guessed wrong.

The girl who saved him has already said clearly that the brightness of the blue pupils is related to the time span of time travel.

"What era are you and that time-space assassin from?" Lin Xian asked, supporting her shoulders.

"I can't say."

The girl gave an expected answer:

"You should understand why I can't tell you, because of the limitations of the laws of time and space. Although we have different names for the laws of time and space, the general meaning is the same."

"Including the things you asked me, such as where I came from and who sent me, which are beyond the limits of the laws of time and space, I have no way of telling you. But what I can tell you is that I am here to save you, and I have been looking for you for a long time. This world is too big, and if you are not in the East China Sea, it is really difficult to find you."

"If I can't sense that... let's call it what you call it, the time-space assassin. I can sense the approximate location of the time-space assassin, and she can sense me. I feel that her movement frequency in the past few days is too frequent and too accurate, so I understand... she must have found her target."

"So in order to find you, I used the [Space-Time Similarity Attraction Induction] to follow her whereabouts and came all the way to Princeton, USA. I followed her wherever she went, and sure enough, I found you."

……

Lin Xian listened to the girl's tender and clear voice and understood the whole story.

It’s probably just like what was portrayed in the science fiction movie “Terminator 2”?

A time-space killer from the future, a time-space bodyguard also from the future, and two Terminator robots start a road chase to defend a teenager.

and so.

These two girls are of similar age and equally skilled, one is here to kill me, and the other is here to protect me?
Although I don't know the specific reason.

But judging from the facts, it seems to be true.

In fact, if you compare them carefully, you will find that apart from their similar age, these two girls have many other differences.

The space-time assassin who came to kill him was relatively taller and more muscular, with obvious muscle lines and signs of training.

Although overall she looks like an ordinary little girl with thin arms and legs, her muscular lines show that she has undergone special training.

Then in terms of appearance, the Time and Space Assassin has short black hair that reaches his neck, which looks very sharp. Combined with his expressionless, mask-like face, he is really scary.

On the other hand, look at the girl who saved me.

Although she does look to be around fifteen or sixteen years old, she is smaller in stature, shorter, thinner, with narrower shoulders than the Space-Time Assassin, and has fewer signs of training on her body.

In terms of hairstyle, although her hair is also black and not very long, it is tied into a cute little ponytail, which is very adorable.

Lin Xian could roughly guess why these two girls who were good at fighting didn't have long hair. It must be because long hair was not conducive to fighting, and was also very cumbersome and troublesome. The real killers in the movies... were often bald, and they were resolute and would not be caught by others by their hair.

There is a big difference between the two girls in appearance.

The girl who saved him obviously had richer expressions and was more lively. She looked more like a normal person than a robot.

Although the two of them looked back at each other for only a moment, Lin Xian could see clearly that the girl was also stunningly beautiful and delicate, far more beautiful than a sculpture.

This is not surprising.

After all, she and the time-space assassin both came from the distant future, at least several hundred years later, so they naturally received the same drug enhancement and gene editing, and their physical fitness and appearance were equally top-notch.

But compared to these...

What really concerned Lin Xian the most was the girl's name.

【Yu Xi】

Lin Xian was still very surprised to hear this completely unexpected name at this time, this place, and this event.

He has been thinking about this during this period.

What and who is the Yu Xi mentioned by Huang Que referring to?
He thought of many possibilities, but couldn't convince himself.

Because Huang Que had made him guess too many riddles, he also found the pattern of Huang Que's riddles... that is, it is straightforward enough and simple enough.

But I never expected it.

This puzzle is just like the previous mirror puzzle. It is not convoluted at all and does not require any thinking. The answer is right in the question!

Yu Xi...

It’s actually a person’s name!
It's not a metaphor, not a reference, not a name, not an adjective... it's just a real girl sitting in front of him.

Before Huang Que disappeared, the last words he left behind were to "never leave Yu Xi".

So she had known for a long time that she would be hunted down by the time-space assassin sooner or later.

And she also knew that there would be a time and space bodyguard named Yu Xi who would travel back in time to protect her.

"Do you know Huang Que?" Lin Xian looked at the small ponytail behind Yu Xi's head.

"I don't know him." Yu Xi replied.

"Then do you know Zhao Yingjun?"

"Of course I know."

Yu Xi leaned to the right, turned the corner, and drove the motorcycle onto the right side of the road without slowing down:
"Isn't Zhao Yingjun your friend in Donghai? She used to be your boss, but later you went out on your own. However, the businesses of your two companies are highly overlapping. In fact, there is no difference between being separated and not being separated."

"I'm not talking about Zhao Yingjun of this era."

Lin Xian interrupted her:
"I mean Zhao Yingjun from your era. Do you know him?"

"do not know."

The super short ponytail that looked cuter the more she looked at it shook:

“Never heard of this person.”

Lin Xian was somewhat puzzled:

"But... no matter if she's Huang Que or Zhao Yingjun, no matter what her name is, she knows you. She knows your name, and it seems she also knows that you will come to see me."

"That woman had a very distinctive feature. She particularly liked to wear earrings, high heels, and trench coats. She also liked to cross her arms and look at people while talking... Think back, among the people you knew in your time, were there people like this?"

The hamster-like ponytail shook again:

"No, I don't know him at all."

……

Fine.

Lin Xian didn't ask any more questions.

If the girl named Yu Xi still answers this question with "I can't say" or "There's no way to say", then Lin Xian can just assume that this girl must know Huang Que.

just.

Now this girl denied knowing Huang Que and Zhao Yingjun without any hesitation or emotion, just like a stranger who heard their names for the first time and didn't care at all.

This means that this girl most likely really doesn't know the yellow bird.

Ok……

Lin Xian sat on the back of the motorcycle and thought.

Judging from the timeline, this is not impossible.

Now it can be confirmed.

The yellow bird traveled from the future several decades later.

Yu Xi, and the time-space assassin, come from at least a few hundred years in the future.

They lived in different eras, hundreds of years apart, so it was normal that they didn't know or hear of each other.

The only thing that cannot be explained is... why Huang Que knew the name Yu Xi accurately and also knew that Yu Xi would definitely travel back hundreds of years later to protect him.

This is a bit mysterious.

After all, this is a direct prediction of what will happen hundreds of years later. Even the gods don’t dare to be so sure, so where does Huang Que get his confidence from?

Unfortunately.

Now that the yellow bird has disappeared and the little girl Yu Xi doesn't know about this, it's probably impossible to find the answer to this question.

"So, how much do you know about that time-space assassin? Do you know her details?"

Facing Lin Xian’s questions.

Yu Xi shook her head again:
"Like you, I also met her for the first time today. Before today, I didn't even know what she looked like, whether she was a man or a woman, her age, her figure, and what era she came from... I had no idea at all. You can even say that you know her better than I do."

"I just felt a few days ago that we were all within the Dragon Country, near the East China Sea. But then, she went to a very far place, probably in the direction of Europe, where there was a time traveler with very weak perception."

"I was planning to follow her, but before my plane arrived, her location changed again and she returned to the East China Sea. And the faint sense disappeared. I don't know if she disappeared naturally or was killed."

"Then, her location changed again and she came to the United States. It was through this unnaturally fast change of location that I deduced that she was acting with a purpose, and her goal was accurate."

I see……

So, everything fits in:

"It seems that the connection between time travelers like you is still very accurate."

Lin Xian explained to Yu Xi:

"I went to Copenhagen a few days ago, and that time-space assassin killed a friend of mine in front of me. After returning to Donghai, she tried to kill me again, but I drove away and I immediately flew to the United States, thinking that it was safe abroad. But I didn't expect that she would chase me to the United States, and her methods were even more brutal. She was no longer afraid of accidentally killing me."

"Sorry." The girl driving the motorcycle looked at the street light ahead and whispered:

"If I had found you earlier, maybe your friend wouldn't be in danger. That time-space assassin obviously had a more accurate way to know your location. Maybe someone in the current time and space provided her with clues... I am much worse than her in this respect. I am fighting alone without anyone to help me, so I didn't find you until today."

"No no, it's not your fault, you don't have to apologize."

Lin Xian felt that this girl was a little too reasonable. How could she be blamed for Huang Que's incident?

"I just have a question."

Lin Xian continued to ask:
"Look at you. You are restricted by the laws of time and space when you talk to me now, let alone doing anything else. Can you hurt me? Can you kill me?"

"That's obviously impossible." Yu Xi shook his head:

"As soon as someone makes a move to hurt you, before the harm comes, the law of time and space will immediately prohibit it. What do you call this law of time and space?"

"Forced avoidance." Lin Xian replied.

Yu Xi nodded, causing the ponytail behind her head to bounce up and down:

"Your name is quite good. Yes, you also know this truth. Time travelers must not interfere with history, change history, or do anything beyond the scope of established history."

"If you force yourself to do something that interferes with history, the consequences and outcome will be dire. Not only will you be forced to avoid, but you will also greatly reduce the time you can stay in this space-time. Even... if you do something excessive enough, like killing someone, there is no doubt, yes, there is no doubt! You will be completely erased by the laws of space-time and disappear from this world."

“But that’s where the problem lies!”

Lin Xian frowned:

"I don't know if you saw what happened just before you saved me. That time-space assassin is not restricted by any time-space laws at all! Not only can she hurt me, she can even kill me. And I am now sure that nothing will happen to her if she kills me, and she will not be rejected or forced to avoid me by time and space."

"Not only did she want to kill me, but she almost beat my driver to death in Donghai City... Although her punch missed the target and only punched through the glass without hurting my driver. But judging by the severity of her attack, she didn't care about the backlash and restrictions of the laws of time and space at all. She really didn't care about the life and death of my driver and me."

"So... what's going on? Logically speaking, nothing and everything should be able to escape the restrictions of the laws of time and space, right? Aren't the laws of time and space absolute? I have always believed that the laws of time and space are absolute. Whether it's you or my time-traveling friend Huang Que, the laws of time and space are strictly enforced every time and never show mercy."

"But why is it that the same thing doesn't work for that time-space assassin? Is this normal? Do you time travelers have a way to circumvent the backlash of the laws of time and space by revising history?"

“【That is absolutely impossible.】”

The girl Yu Xi answered without hesitation:
"Even if it's to revise history, that's something that only people in your time and space and this era can do. We time travelers are greatly restricted by the laws of time and space... We can't say or do anything that has a big impact."

"So, if what you said is true, that is, the time-space assassin is completely unrestricted by the laws of time and space, I think it is impossible... But since you have sworn that this is the fact, I will not say such meaningless denials as impossible."

"I can only say that a time traveler with obviously blue eyes can actually transcend the laws of time and space and is not restricted by the laws of time and space..."

“This is definitely not normal.”

……

What Yu Xi said once again corrected Lin Xian's previous wrong judgment.

He naively thought that the reason why the time-space assassin could use violence against him was because she and the instigators behind her found a specific way to correct history, and then calculated the "positive correction" and "negative correction", and then neutralized and offset the historical disturbance caused by killing him by synchronously changing certain things.

Sure enough, this idea is totally unrealistic.

Who can be sure how big a butterfly effect killing or saving a person will have?

"So, my previous assumption that the space-time elasticity could be neutralized and offset was completely wrong."

Lin Xian spoke to himself.

Then he looked up again:
"Although it is very unreasonable and abnormal that the time-space assassin can ignore the laws of time and space, there must be a reason, right? There must be some special reason that can allow her to gain this ability... Do you have any clues?"

"No."

Tonight, Yu Xi had no idea how many times she had shaken her head. Even Lin Xian was getting a little tired of seeing that ponytail swaying:

"Lin Xian, don't worry about how she managed to ignore the laws of time and space, but you have to understand that I am still restricted by the laws of time and space. If you really want to find out the reason why the time-space assassin transcends the laws of time and space... I'm afraid I can't help you. You need to study, explore, and find the answers yourself."

……

Lin Xian listened to Yu Xi's familiar tone of voice and felt a little nostalgic.

Isn’t this what Huang Que always says?
Unexpectedly, the big riddle man left and the small riddle man came again.

The big yellow bird left, and little Yu Xi came.

In fact, what bothered Lin Xian the most was...

It's not just that the space-time assassin ignores the laws of space and time.

Instead.

[Why! Forced avoidance happens to me? ]

This matter was really too unbelievable... completely incomprehensible. So much so that when Lin Xian saw the invincible and flawless space-time assassin walking towards him, he was really a little desperate.

How should this battle be fought?
Not only was the opponent's attack power fierce and not restricted by the laws of time and space, but she was also immune to all of his attacks. Shooting at her would only make him stiff and paralyzed.

None of the cheats in online games are as powerful as hers.

This space-time assassin has full attack and defense and also has a paralysis aura... He can only be described as invincible.

Lin Xian didn't speak for a long time.

Yu Xi turned around worriedly, took a look, and then comforted:
"Don't be too depressed... We can slowly figure out a solution. Don't worry, my mission is to protect you. I will protect you with my life. If the time-space assassin wants to kill you, he must step over my dead body."

"And you just saw that although you can't attack the time-space assassin, I, who am also a time traveler, can. Not only can I hit her with a motorcycle, I can also shoot her with a pistol and burn her with fire..."

"So you don't have to worry, Lin Xian. That time-space assassin is just scary to you, but in my opinion, she is not unbeatable. There is no difference in fighting power between the two of us. We are both time travelers. We have both experienced drug enhancement and gene editing in our respective eras. Our strength and fighting ability are basically the same."

Listening to Yu Xi’s heartwarming words.

Lin Xian nodded.

He was not depressed, nor did he lose his fighting spirit as Yu Xi thought.

I have been through so much.

How could I be hit by such a small thing?
He just feels...

There must be something weird.

There must be something I missed.

There must be some details I haven't noticed yet.

【Everything has its cause, and every cause has its effect.】

It is impossible for a time-space assassin to be immune to the laws of time and space without any reason. There must be some trick, some operation, some secret...

As long as we figure out why she is not restricted by the laws of time and space.

Perhaps, we can find a targeted solution.

then.

Defeat her!
Inexplicable……

Lin Xian recalled the words Gao Yang had shouted at Ji Lin's birthday party -

“Our greatest honor is not to stand firm, but to have the courage to stand up again after falling down countless times!”

Because he was so shocked at the time, Lin Xian still remembers this sentence clearly.

Gao Yang said that this is a famous saying by Oliver Goldsmith, a famous British writer in the 18th century.

I don’t know whether this little-known fact is true or not.

But at least, this famous saying makes sense.

Yes.

Why be afraid of failure?
From childhood to adulthood, from knowing the truth of dreams to now, hasn’t Lin Xian suffered enough failures?
Countless people around him told him.

Failure is not scary.

The scary thing is that you lose the courage to stand up again.

As it is now.

The enemy is very powerful.

But Lin Xian believed that it was definitely not so powerful that it could not be defeated!

"I'll try to find out why."

Lin Xian patted the girl Yu Xi's shoulder:

"Then where are we going now?"

Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling————

Lin Xian's words had just fallen.

The phone rang.

I opened it and saw it was Angelica calling.

He pressed the answer button:

"Hey?"

"Haha, that female secretary has fallen asleep."

On the other end of the phone, Angelica seemed to be smoking a cigarette, because Lin Xian heard the sound of a lighter.

"You are so awesome."

Lin Xian exclaimed:
"To be honest, I really envy your current situation. It's really like heaven and earth... So, did you find out anything?"

"of course."

Angelica smiled on the phone:

"When have I ever failed?"

"Come on, Lin Xian, which one do you want to hear first? The one about lolita control... or the one about artificial intelligence?"

Lin Xian narrowed his eyes:

"Tell me about lolicon."

Angelica chuckled and said slowly:

"This female secretary complained to me that her boss, Jask, had hidden a teenage girl... an oriental girl, in the tower for several months."

"She is very worried that this incident will ruin Jask's reputation and even lead to jail time. Because you may not know Lin Xian, in the United States... once this kind of thing is exposed and confirmed, Jask's life will be over."

Lin Xian changed his hand to hold the phone and adjusted his posture on the motorcycle seat:
"Any other characteristics of that teenage girl?"

"The secretary said that the little girl was very beautiful, as if she came out of a cartoon. Her face was so finely carved that it looked like a work of art."

"In addition to being pretty, the secretary also said that the girl had neck-length black short hair and looked very cold and taciturn. Ah, there was one more thing that the secretary remembered most vividly, which was..."

Angelica exhaled a puff of smoke and said softly:

"The girl's eyes were blue. And... terrifyingly bright."
