Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 153: I just wanted to have a meal!
Bai Jingyu stared blankly at Bai Yuekui.

The word "Dad" resonated in his heart, like a swan flapping its wings on a long-silent lake, creating gentle and never-ending ripples.

At that moment, Bai Jingyu's heart melted.

Everything else faded away silently, leaving only Bai Yuekui's gentle face and her trying-to-remain calm gaze.

月魁
"Hey!"

The young Bai Yuekui couldn't contain her impatience. She asked urgently, "Is this person my twin? If not, I'm going to sue her right now!"

Bai Jingyu came to his senses.

He exchanged a glance with Bai Yuekui and saw a faint smile in Bai Yuekui's eyes.

twin?
An interesting point.

Let's deal with ASH's unauthorized actions later; first, let's help Yue Kui resolve this immediate issue.

Bai Jingyu nodded slightly.

"That's right, she's your twin sister."

As soon as he finished speaking, the young Bai Yuekui's eyes widened, his heart filled with turmoil.

"What a joke!" she gritted her teeth.

"How come I didn't know I had a twin sister? My mother never told me. You must be lying to me!"

Bai Jingyu pursed his lips.

At this moment, Bai Yuekui spoke up: "For the happiness of some people, others must bear the burden in the darkness. Between you and me, you are the happier one."

She gazed at her younger self, her eyes filled with nostalgia.

The young Bai Yuekui didn't notice the look in his eyes; her mind was in turmoil, and she was almost unable to organize her thoughts logically.

The person in front of me who looks so much like me is actually my twin sister!
If I hadn't happened to be at this restaurant today, I don't know how much longer I would have been kept in the dark. But what was the reason for keeping it from me?
“What about the end of the world?” she blurted out.

At this moment, her thoughts were in disarray, and she asked whatever came to mind.

"Both Jiuchuan and the Coastal Alliance received doomsday prophecies from higher-dimensional beings, and I have even witnessed the end times firsthand."

Bai Jingyu took a deep breath.

"The end is nigh," he said earnestly.

He didn't want to tell the young Bai Yuekui about the apocalypse so soon.

The first creeper will sprout from the ground just a few days after Professor Horn's presentation. It won't be too late to reveal the brutal reality of the apocalypse then.

But now that things have come to this, continuing to hide it will only create rifts, and it might even be taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives.

After all, Hisakawa's enemies are not just the Mana ecosystem.

The young Bai Yuekui was stunned.

Her innocent, naive face was filled with confusion, and her thin shoulders swayed slightly, as if she might fall at any moment.

Bai Yuekui smiled and then hooked his index finger.

A few rays of light coalesced.

The empty chair moved itself behind the young Bai Yuekui's buttocks and then forcefully pushed against the young Bai Yuekui's knee.

tom!
Young Bai Yuekui sat down without thinking.

Like a startled rabbit, she turned her head in a panic, only to find that there was no one behind her.

"Don't be nervous," Bai Yuekui said calmly.

“We are your family.”

"I won't hurt you."

"You should tone down your temper and become more mature. Your kindness and foolishness will kill many people," she said softly.

At this moment, the young Bai Yuekui came to his senses.

She said nervously, "Even if you really are my twin sister, it doesn't mean you can judge me so easily."

After saying that, she looked around at everyone.

"Today has truly been an eye-opener for me: a traitorous brother, a sister who appeared out of nowhere, the Riddler's humph, and the impending doomsday."

The experience, which lasted only a few minutes, shattered the values ​​she had cultivated over more than twenty years.

"Is there anything else you're hiding from me?"

The young Bai Yuekui had a complicated expression.

She saved money on dinner tonight because her stomach was already full of shock and questions. She felt like she was in a dream.

How ridiculous!

How come there's suddenly an older sister?
How did the world suddenly end?

What did I come here for? I think I just wanted to have a meal!
"Eat some while it's hot." Bai Yuetian got up and put a piece of fish meat, with all the bones removed, into her bowl.

Bai Yuekui replied slowly and deliberately, "After all these years, it's only now that we've met again. If I said there's nothing else I'm hiding from you, you probably wouldn't believe me. Let's eat and talk."

After saying that, she picked up a peanut for herself.

Boom!

The peanuts are very crunchy.

“I’m not hungry,” said the young Bai Yuekui.

Bai Yuekui shook his head: "This is a place to eat. If you're not going to eat, then leave."

The young Bai Yuekui fell silent.

Seeing that the other two people at the table were engrossed in their rice and showed no intention of speaking, she had no choice but to pick up the fish from her bowl and take a small bite.

hiss--

Really fragrant!

Bai Yuekui said calmly, "I have the ability to predict the future. Do you want to know when Professor Horn will die?"

"Pfft!" The young Bai Yuekui spat out his food.

"What did you say?!"

Her almond-shaped eyes were wide open; she was incredibly cute.

Bai Yuetian picked up a napkin and silently wiped the drool and rice grains off his face. He didn't say anything, but his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth were full of disgust.

"You guys chat, I have some things to take care of." Bai Jingyu glanced at ASH.

Suddenly, a voice came from the side.

"Mayor Bai, wait a minute!"

The proprietress asked nervously, "Mayor Bai, I just heard you talk about the end of the world. Is there really going to be an end of the world?"

The restaurant not only housed the Awakened One, but also the proprietress and several waiters.

They also heard the conversation.

"This will soon be no secret," Bai Jingyu said slowly.

He glanced down at the two moon wolves who were enjoying their meal, and said, "I'm building fortifications. Your cooking is quite good. I'll have ASH issue asylum certificates to you and your families."

The proprietress was overjoyed: "Thank you, Mayor Bai!"

If there is no apocalypse, fine. But if there really is an apocalypse, with Bai Jingyu's promise, they and their families will be safe!

“But from today onwards, none of you can leave Jiuchuan, and you must never tell anyone what happened today.” Bai Jingyu’s gaze swept over everyone present.

The atmosphere was slightly heavy.

The proprietress paused for a moment, then nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, we won't say anything. You can have Ash keep an eye on us!"

"Hmm." Bai Jingyu nodded slightly.

sieve--

The projection disappeared.

Bai Jingyu turned to look at ASH beside him and asked expressionlessly, "ASH, who gave you permission to do this, to let the two Yue Kui meet without my permission?"

"I'm sorry," ASH said, bowing his head in apology.

Then it added, "But I didn't deliberately lead them to meet; I just went with the flow."

"Yue Kui has lived a peaceful life for more than 20 years. A few more days won't make a difference. Let her know some things sooner so that she can accept them more easily when the end of the world really comes."

Bai Jingyu shook his head.

After a two-second silence, ASH said, "I know you won't agree, but this is the best outcome. Do you really want the Moon Queen to be in a panic when the end of the world comes?"

Bai Jingyu took a deep breath: "You understand what I really want to say."

"Why did you make this decision without informing me, and why are my two daughters involved!"

Before facing the Mana ecosystem, should we first resolve the omnic crisis?
