Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 5395 (Five Thousand Three Hundred and Ninety-Five) Fear

The Gray Hand asked, "What did he do when he heard what you said?"

"He said... I was just making excuses. It's not that I just didn't understand what he meant by 'self-reflection', but... I didn't have the awareness of self-reflection at all."

The Gray Hand Man said again: "You didn't refute him?"

"No." The man said, "I simply... don't dare."

"What did he say?" asked the Gray Hand.

"He then went on to tell me...if I...had self-reflection, I would not have killed him a long time ago," the man said.

"How do you feel when you hear this?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"It's extremely uncomfortable." said the man.

The Gray Hand asked, "What did you say to him again?"

The man replied: "I didn't dare to say."

"Are you afraid of the consequences?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"No." said the man.

"Why is that?" the Gray Hand Man asked again.

"It was purely because... I felt so bad." The man said. "So you believe what he said to you this time?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." said the man.

"Do you think you were the one who killed your father?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

When the brown-handed man heard the gray-handed man asking so many detailed questions, he was shocked at first. He glanced at the tree bead and found that it was still the same as before. He thought it was not a big problem. He thought that this period of time might just be due to special circumstances. Even if the man heard something related to the cause of his father's death, he would not fall into a state of being unable to communicate normally with others. The brown-handed man wondered how long this state could last, and was afraid that it would suddenly no longer be the case. In that case, the man might fall into a state of being unable to communicate normally with others again. Because he felt that he should not think of the worst, the brown-handed man hoped that this state would last longer. The gray-handed man asked a lot of details. At the same time, he thought of another problem. That is, the gray-handed man later asked very detailed questions, and he only felt that the gray-handed man's questions were reasonable during this period, and he didn't feel strange at all. He also thought that even if he asked questions, he would definitely ask the same questions as the gray-handed man. He felt that the more detailed the questions, the better.

As soon as he thought of this, the Brown-Handed Man felt that something was really wrong. This was because the Gray-Handed Man and himself seemed to have changed in that they did not pay as much attention to the changes in the direction of time as before, but it was difficult for him to control it, and he did not know whether the Gray-Handed Man had any way to control it.

The Brown Hand Man was about to say something to the Gray Hand Man, but then he decided to just listen to their conversation first, and not speak immediately, otherwise his communication with the Gray Hand Man would take up more time. The Brown Hand Man thought that this time, during which the Gray Hand Man could ask the man questions about his father's death without worrying about the man falling into a state of being unable to communicate normally again, was particularly precious.

Only to hear that person answer: "It's just... it's just that 'I', not me... not the me now."

The Gray Hand said, "I know. Haven't we been talking about that 'you' all this time? In that case, you don't need to emphasize that 'you'."

The man said, "I... understand. But... in my heart, that 'me' is different from the real me. That 'my dad' is also different from the real 'my dad'."

The Gray Hand Man said, “It’s different.”

The man said, "Oh... yes. Maybe... I care too much and worry too much... I hope everything is okay... It's okay."
