Restricted fantasy invasion

Chapter 436 433 Easy to fool
"This is the best I can do for you."

In a building covered in blood and flesh, Ye Shiyu, wearing a cloak and holding a torch and a long knife, stopped in her tracks.

As she spoke, she turned around and looked at the person behind her.

Bai Yi turned her head to look around at the surroundings, having already learned about the situation of this "if" line.

In this "if" scenario, Yan Huan also dies.
And then, this disastrous outcome occurred.

"."

Looking at Anle in the sky, which seemed to have transformed into an evil god, and thinking about the missions he had been traveling through time, and that the next time he traveled through time would be the location of the final knot.
If we can untie that knot, maybe...
Thus, Bai Yi's expression hardened. Even in the "what if" scenario, she still spoke to Ye Shiyu.
"I will definitely save Yan Huan!"

"Xiao Huan."

Upon hearing this name, Ye Shiyu, whose face was etched with the marks of time, couldn't help but feel her eyes darken.
"Are you crazy too? He and his mother have been gone for so long, what's the point of talking about saving them?"

"No, I"

Bai Yi was about to explain when Yan Huan suddenly spoke up from her shoulder.

"Time's almost up, meow, Baiyi."

“Didi. Ta-da.”

It was now nearly 4:44 PM.

They are about to travel back to the first day of the spring semester, the place where Yan Huan first met Miao Jiang.

"Finally, it's almost over. Ugh, this journey has been..."

As the final moment approached, Bai Yi took a deep breath and said this.

Hearing this, Yan Huan, perched on her shoulder, glanced at her and said helplessly,

"I already told you, meow, the more you try to change established things, the greater the resistance will be. That's why these transitions into the 'if' line have become increasingly dangerous!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi simply puffed out her cheeks.

She stole a glance at Yan Huan, her starry eyes shifting slightly as she began to lay the groundwork for a certain idea that was forming in her mind.
"Hmph, we've made it through! It's just that we haven't seen Yan Huan in so many 'what if' scenarios. I still want to see her in the real timeline tomorrow."

Yan Huan vaguely grasped the first layer of meaning in her words, so she added another warning.
"I'm warning you, meow, you're walking through the real past timeline! If others realize you've crossed timelines, especially if your past self or Yan Huan finds out, you're going to be annihilated!"

Especially since it's almost the end.

With just the final step, she could trick her into returning to the present, and Yan Huan didn't want anything to go wrong.

"I'll just sneak a peek at him first~"

Bai Yi pouted, angrily poked the white cat on her shoulder with her finger, and said,
"That was our first meeting! Although... he didn't know that I originally planned to draw him after I finished drawing Zhou Bin's face."

"."

Yan Huan, with dead fish eyes, didn't reply.

Bai Yi, meanwhile, nodded and began to daydream.
"Oh dear, if only I had known earlier that Yan Huan was actually my fan."
"At that time, Anle hadn't acknowledged him yet, he still hated Spencer, and Ye Shiyu was even more of a mess."
"Hehehe, if Sakuramiya Hitomi keeps spying on me and dropping bombshells, I don't know how I'm going to lose!"

Just thinking about it like that is wishful thinking on Bai Yi's part.

She waved her small fists, her starry eyes sparkling, and even fantasized triumphantly about beating them up and winning.

"Hmph, then Yan Huan will definitely pursue me relentlessly and confess her feelings to me. Yan Ye, tell me, should I reluctantly agree, or should I reluctantly agree?"

"."

"Yan Ye?"

Beside them, the white cat had already tucked its tail between its legs and quietly walked away.

"Swallow Leaf!"

"It's almost time, meow."

"You guy!"

Bai Yi puffed out her cheeks, instantly turning into a pink pufferfish.

She grabbed the chubby white cat and hugged it tightly in her arms.

“Didi. Ta-da.”

And before us, as the time approached 4:44, a door to the real world suddenly opened.

Inside, one can vaguely make out the Totsuki Academy, where the spring semester's opening exams are held.

Bai Yi, who was originally thinking about other things, couldn't help but change her expression when she saw the school bathed in the setting sun.

Now that it's finally the end, all her ties with Yan Huan will vanish after today, leaving her still somewhat hesitant and lacking in confidence.

Even though Yan Huan had promised to restore her memories after everything was over, she couldn't help but confirm it one more time.
"Well, why bring this up again? After tomorrow, he probably won't even remember me."

Yan Huan rolled her eyes at her, just about to reaffirm her previous promise.

But when I looked up, I saw her staring intently at me.

"Tell me, Yan Ye, can I save him?"

"."

These words caused Yan Huan's expression to stiffen slightly.

This, it seems, is also the fear he faces.

he.
Can Bai Yi be saved?
"."

Yan Huan remained silent and did not answer the question.

He simply wagged his tail and said softly, as if changing the subject.

"He will remember your cat."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi's face revealed a beautiful smile.

She affectionately rubbed her face against the fluffy white cat in her arms, and the next second, the white light in front of her suddenly became dazzling, completely engulfing her.

“Didi. Ta-da.”

"Kakakaka!!"

And this world, swallowed by tentacles, seemed to rewind, returning to 4:45 a.m. the day before.

"What on earth is this thing?"

Spring semester, opening exam, Class 1B, outside the exam hall.

Inside the classroom, the students in Class 1B were either sitting at their desks reviewing their math notes from the previous semester, or going to the restroom to take care of personal matters, or chatting in small groups.
Only one stunningly beautiful young woman sat in the corridor, staring blankly at the pocket watch that had suddenly appeared in her hand, her face full of confusion.

"Hmm, who accidentally left this here? That's so careless, this thing looks quite expensive."

Bai Yi stroked the exquisitely crafted pocket watch a few times and made this guess.

"Ding dong~"

Just then, the exam bell rang in the teaching building, reminding everyone that the exam was about to begin.
"The exam is about to begin. Please return to your assigned seats. Do not prepare anything unrelated to the exam."

Upon hearing the ringtone, Bai Yi immediately adopted a PTSD-like expression and muttered something under her breath.
"Mathematics..."

[Congratulations, you have obtained the Fleeting Pocket Watch, host of Bai Yi.]

This pocket watch is designed to make your life easier without cost, helping you to change anything that makes you sad or regretful, without being influenced by others.

Currently, you have unlocked the ability: Indifference.

[No-Concern State: Each session lasts 15 minutes. After use, you will enter an unselectable state that is absolutely undetectable.]

During this period, you can do anything, and the resulting interactive effects will take effect the instant the indifferent state ends.

【Please use it without any worries! 】

Hey?
This thing.
real or fake
Bai Yi's expression, which had been as if she had swallowed a fly, froze instantly, and she stared blankly at the pocket watch in her hand.

Is it possible?
Is it an illusion?
"What are you still doing in the hallway? Get back to the classroom!"

"what?"

Behind her, Zhou Bin's annoying voice came, startling Bai Yi so much that she shrank back slightly.

She turned her head and saw a shiny bald head standing at the door of Class 1-A, holding a stack of test papers and looking at her fiercely.

"Yes"

Bai Yi initially agreed honestly, but when she saw that Zhou Bin had entered Class A and could no longer see her, she immediately made a face at that direction.

I wish this thing were real.
Not only Zhou Bin, that guy who likes to tattle on parents, but also Yan Huan from Class A of the first year.
Thinking this, a shadow crossed Bai Yi's beautiful face.

But the shadow didn't last more than a few seconds before Zhou Bin's scream echoed from Class 1-A.

"Where are my test papers?! They're all gone!"

As soon as the sound came, Bai Yi's fingers, which were about to try to move the minute hand, stopped instantly.

"real or fake."

"What kind of post is this? The titles have all turned into hair growth product ads."

The whispers from his classmates only fueled Zhou Bin's anger.
"Stop looking! Collect them all!"

"Yes~"

"Quiet!! No whispering!"

"Teacher, I need to go to the restroom."

"Everyone sit still! I'm going to the registrar's office to make up the exam papers!!"

"."

Seeing this, Bai Yi blinked and immediately hid to the side.

The next second, Zhou Bin emerged from the classroom, his face flushed, carrying a pile of scrap paper. He ran towards the administration office, rubbing his bald head and gritting his teeth.

"It's all over, it ...."

"puff"

Meanwhile, Bai Yi, who was secretly watching from the shadows, was indeed easy to fool.

Even though she hadn't done anything yet, seeing Zhou Bin's discomfiture, she covered her mouth and chuckled to herself.

The students in Class A didn't listen to Zhou Bin either; some went to the toilet, while others chatted in the classroom.

Bai Yi, clutching her pocket watch, stole a glance through the back door at the handsome young man sitting quietly by the window, eyes closed in contemplation. The smile on her face gradually faded.
"Yan Huan."

She gripped her pocket watch tightly, about to turn and leave, when she heard the voices of the girls who had been walking away coming from afar.
"By the way, Miaoqing, didn't you originally take leave? Why are you suddenly back?"

"Hehe, because I suddenly realized that I was assigned to the same exam room as President Yan."

"Oh, so that's why."

"But hey, Zhenmei, I've discovered a secret about Chairman Yan! He's actually a fan of celebrities!"

"Huh?! Really? Who are you chasing?"

"Bai Yi from our school is that actor."

Hey hey hey? !

Bai Yi stood there, her expression one of surprise, then immediately changed position, pressing herself against the wall as if she wished she could grow ears that could hear a thousand miles away to eavesdrop on the conversation over there.

"Ah, that's normal, after all, Bai Yi is really pretty. But I thought President Yan liked Vice President Sakura. By the way, how did you know?"

"I saw President Yan listening to music before the exam, and I wanted to sneak a peek at his playlist. But I found out he was playing Bai Yi's songs, and on repeat!"

"Hey?!"

!!!

Over there, the two girls who went to the restroom together gradually walked away.

But Bai Yi, who had been eavesdropping while clutching his pocket watch, grew increasingly wide-eyed as he listened.

In the end, her face flushed red as she covered her chest and turned away.

"Yan Yan Huan is my fan?!"

"."

Only then did she secretly glance at the handsome boy who was resting with his eyes closed in the classroom.

In that instant, I felt that his appearance had changed.

No longer so annoying, no longer so infuriating.
Yes, thinking about it carefully, I'm actually not familiar with him at all. It was just a grudge I formed with him when I was a child star audition at Yasaka Entertainment.
He did nothing wrong; on the contrary, he was narrow-minded.
Thinking this, Bai Yi showed a guilty expression.

So, the pocket watch she had been clutching tightly gradually loosened.

She glanced at Yan Huan one last time, the hatred in her eyes fading. Then, the next second, she did nothing, turned her head completely, and walked back to her exam room.

"Boom!"

Meanwhile, in the distance, the disguised "Miao Qing" secretly watched her past self walk back to the classroom, and immediately called out to Yan Ye, who was lurking in the shadows.

"Yan Ye, how are you?!"

Yan Ye remained silent, only saying,
"It worked, meow."

"!!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi immediately became excited.

But outwardly, she pretended to cover her stomach, glancing somewhat awkwardly at her companion beside her.

"Um, Zhenmei, my stomach suddenly hurts a little. You can go back first, don't wait for me."

"Ah good"

As she spoke, Bai Yi immediately hid in the toilet stall and looked down at the white cat that had appeared.

"Did it succeed?!"

"It's meow."

Yan Huan nodded and summoned the pendulum clock from her eyes.

Below, on the woven timeline, on Yan Huan's worldline, the last knot suddenly vanished.

At this point, Yan Huan's online world seems to have no connection with Bai Yi anymore.

But Bai Yi still looked at Yan Huan anxiously, shaking his body back and forth.
"You know what I mean by success, Yanye!!"

"Uh"

Yan Huan was shaken back and forth, but remained silent.
"In reality, you can only see a 15-day timeline, how would I know?! Anyway, it's almost 4:44 PM, isn't it?!"

“Yes, yes.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi finally snapped out of her daze and scratched her head sheepishly.

"I was too hasty."

Yan Huan wagged its tail speechlessly, then glanced at the time.

As time ticked towards 4:44, the two of them vanished from their spot in an instant.

Immediately thereafter, another extremely quiet timeline emerged.

After confirming that there was no danger around and that he seemed to be in just one room, Bai Yi quickly looked at Yan Huan.
"Hurry! Hurry! Take a look!"

"Hmm, don't rush meow!"

In response, Yan Huan's golden eyes flickered slightly as she examined the world lines.

Bai Yi nervously clutched her chest, not daring to disturb him, and simply looked at him.

But then she saw Yan Huan's expression change slightly.

"!!"

Upon seeing this, Bai Yi's face instantly paled slightly. She bit her lip, saying in disbelief,
"No way."

"."

Before her, Yan Ye's eyes widened as she turned her head to look at Bai Yi.

"Bai Yi, you...you see for yourself, meow."

As he spoke, he summoned the pendulum clock in his eyes that observed the world line.

Bai Yi's breathing almost stopped, and she quickly looked in that direction.

"goo"

No way, no way, no way!
Despite having made so many efforts, all of his past with Yan Huan is gone.
If that still doesn't work, I
Bai Yi anxiously flipped the timeline above, pulling it all the way to July 1st.

However, the next second, her gaze suddenly fell upon...
That Yan Huan's worldline became smooth and continuous again.

"Hey?"

Her heart was pounding in her chest, but when she saw the restored world line, she was stunned.

Suddenly, she realized something, and her cheeks puffed up little by little.

Her eyes were slightly red, and she turned her head angrily to look at the damn cat behind her.
"Swallow Leaf!!!"

"Meow?!"

Seeing that things were not going well, Yan Ye immediately tried to turn around and run away.

But he was no match for Bai Yi's merciless iron hand that reached out from behind him and was pulled back.

"woo"

However, unexpectedly.

She simply hugged the kitten in front of her tightly, even burying her head in his warm body.
"You scared me to death... Waaah!"

"."

Feeling the dampness of her fur, Yan Huan sighed and brushed her face with her tail.

"I was just kidding, meow."

"But at least we succeeded!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi raised her eyes and finally revealed a beautiful smile.
"Finally, I successfully rescued Yan Huan!!"

"Yes, meow. We can finally go back. Whew, we've been exhausted these past few days."

Yan Huan nodded and said this in her arms.

However, after hearing Yan Huan say this, Bai Yi hesitated and scratched his cheek.

Then, she pouted, suddenly looked at Yan Huan, and asked softly,
"Yan Ye, let's travel through time one more time. Just once, okay?"

"Meow?!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Huan reacted as if startled, shaking her head vigorously.
"No, no, no! Absolutely not, meow!! Don't even think about it! You've already changed enough, what more do you want to do?! If you keep going like this, Yan Huan, who was alive before, might be killed by you again!"

"No! Absolutely not, I promise!"

Seeing this, Bai Yi reached out and grasped Yan Huan's cat head, turning it back to face him.
"When we went to see my dad before, you saw how he acted, right? He's actually a good person. So I'm thinking, maybe there's a chance to prevent him from going to jail or something."

"Are you crazy, meow? That would be such a hassle! We can only go back for one day. Do you really think his crimes can be changed in just one day?! No way, no way, no way!"

“What Officer Zhou said to me that day really bothered me, and I checked the case file on my phone when I came here yesterday. My father might be innocent.”

"Just maybe, meow!"

"."

Bai Yi opened her mouth, then lowered her eyes.

Then, she looked at Yan Huan and said softly,

"I know we've changed enough. But think back on what we've changed."

"Before that comic convention, before I met Yan Huan, because of my mother, and because of my personality, I had always been... well, had a very bad life."

"Finally, after learning that Yan Huan is my fan and after the comic convention, my life finally started to improve a little."

"We've ruined the comic convention, turned it into a stage accident, and my career is now over."
"My mother was still like that when I was successful in my career. If things really continue to develop like this, I'm afraid."

As she spoke, she looked earnestly at Yan Huan and said,

"Actually, it's not that I'm attached to my career, or that I feel it's not worth it to trade Yan Huan for it."

"But, just like I said before."

"If my father hadn't done those things, my mother wouldn't have suffered so much raising me alone, and maybe things wouldn't be like this."
"That way, even if I have nothing left when I go back, as long as I have Yan Huan and normal parents, I will be content."

"."

Upon hearing this, Yan Huan's expression stiffened slightly.

But at this moment, he had to admit that the repeated changes he had made along the way had indeed made a mess of Bai Yi's life.

She did all of this for herself.

He himself knew what ending the time travel meant.
[So gullible!]

[So gullible!!]

[So gullible!!!]

Just now, this reminder kept echoing in his mind like a death knell.

But deep within his golden eyes, on the real world line, on July 1st...
Yan Huan's timeline has shattered like fireworks, without any change whatsoever.

Everything, just as he had guessed, had fallen into the worst possible state.

He had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure: to trick her into returning to the present and then abandon the mod.

But what happens after you do that?
What about after July 1st?

He gave up the cheat code, his life was ruined by being transported back to the past, and then he found that he hadn't changed anything?
He dared not imagine how desperate Bai Yi would be at that time.

"."

Thinking this way, even though Yan Huan had already decided to take another approach to save her, she still couldn't help but feel reluctant.

Simply being alive is not enough.

He wanted her to be happy.

"Only one day."

After a brief moment of thought, Yan Huan raised her head and said this.

"Really?!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yi's eyes lit up slightly.

She hugged Yan Huan tightly, rubbing against her from side to side.
"You're the best, Yanye!!"

"."

"Don't worry, it really is just one day! If going back doesn't change my father's fate, then it means it was destined, and I will absolutely not force it anymore!"

Bai Yi lifted Yan Huan up as if she were a precious treasure, smiling and tilting her head as she spoke.

"Anyway, we've already saved Yan Huan, right?"

"It's meow."

[So gullible!]

"If we can't do anything else, it's okay if Yan Huan is our only fan when we go back! You'll help him regain his memory, right?"

"It's meow."

[So gullible!!]

"Yeah, perfect timing. I can make up for missing his 19th birthday when we get back. He'll celebrate his birthday with me, right? Not with Sakura Miyato, or Anle, or Aruya. And definitely not with Ye Shiyu!"

"It's meow."

[So gullible!!!]

"Then, if he doesn't confess to me that night, I'll... I'll reluctantly confess to him, okay?"

As she listened, Yan Ye, who had been keeping her head down, raised it and looked at Bai Yi.

"He will confess his love to you, meow."

"."

Looking at the white cat in front of her, Bai Yi blinked.

Immediately, she flashed a sweet smile and lowered her head to rub against the cat that doted on her so much.
"That's great~"
