Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 185 He's dead, what will you do?

"Sister, are you feeling better?" The young Bai Yuekui looked at his "twin sister" on the hospital bed with concern in his eyes.

She watched as her older sister vomited blood.

She even used her own T-shirt to wipe her sister's mouth, but the more she wiped, the more blood flowed. She was terrified that her newly recognized sister would vomit blood and die on the spot.

Bai Yuekui nodded slightly: "Much better."

The technology at the Nirvana Research Institute is far superior to that of Dragonbone Village.

With the combined use of medical nanorobots, gene editing, and source body conditioning, her internal injuries were easily alleviated, and her body was restored to balance.

“I’ve wanted to come see you for a long time, but they both said your condition was unstable, and they only notified me today that I could come,” the young Bai Yuekui couldn’t help but complain.

On the day of the incident, she wanted to visit Bai Yuekui.

But it was ruthlessly stopped.

These past two days she's been unable to eat or drink, and she keeps getting distracted while doing experiments.

Bai Yuekui smiled and said, "Next time I'll tell them not to stop you."

"Will there be a next time? Will you cough up blood every time you do that?" The young Bai Yuekui asked with concern.

Being Ultraman isn't easy!
Bai Yuekui shook his head: "It wasn't like this before, but I got injured and that's how it became."

"Is it because of the injury?" The young Bai Yuekui paused for a moment.

She whispered, "I thought you would say it's the price of power, like a superhero in a movie, and then add, 'With great power comes great responsibility.'"

Bai Yuekui shook his head: "Gaining power does indeed come at a price."

"But it's not true that with great power comes great responsibility. That's only true in movies. In reality, it's the opposite: the more capable a person is, the less responsibility they bear."

"Huh?" The young Bai Yuekui was a little confused.

Bai Yuekui slowly spoke: "People with powerful abilities usually enjoy resources commensurate with their abilities."

"The problems that trouble ordinary people may only require a little effort to solve for the strong, but they don't even feel the existence of these problems, so they don't think that solving these problems is important, and therefore they will not take responsibility for solving them."

Bai Yuekui paused for a few seconds, then continued, "On the contrary, those who are weaker face more problems in life and work than the stronger ones. Some of these problems are difficult for them to solve, yet they have no choice but to bear the responsibility of solving them, because the strong will not concern themselves with them."
"With great power comes little responsibility."

"The less ability you have, the greater your responsibility."

The young Bai Yuekui wore an expression that seemed to understand but not quite.

She didn't actually understand.

No one in the world understands you better than yourself.

Bai Yuekui glanced at her younger self and immediately realized that her younger self hadn't understood, so she began to give examples: "For example, air pollution."

The young Bai Yuekui roused himself.

Air pollution?

Jiuchuan is now facing the problem of air pollution. There are already vending machines selling Heluo compressed air on the streets, and the sales are good. Every day, you can see workers restocking the vending machines.

"Those who cause air pollution and those who have the ability to limit air pollution both live in environments free from air pollution and are completely indifferent to the issue of controlling air pollution."

"On the contrary, ordinary people take to the streets to protest every day. These people, who have no ability to solve anything, are more eager to solve the air pollution problem than any wealthy businessman or politician."

The young Bai Yuekui vaguely understood.

"So is this a moral issue?" She paused for a moment. "Are you that kind of person too?"

Bai Yuekui smiled: "What do you think?"

“I think,” the young Bai Yuekui said, his eyes darting around, “you’re the kind of superhero you see in movies. You fight monsters until you cough up blood and end up in the hospital, but you just don’t say those fancy lines like in the movies.”

Bai Yuekui smiled.

She changed the subject: "What kind of person do you think your father is?"

The young Bai Yuekui hesitated.

In the past, she would have undoubtedly accused Bai Jingyu of being the latter. With great power comes little responsibility; a power-hungry ruler, a heartless and ruthless villain.
But now it seems that Bai Jingyu is far more complicated than she previously thought.

The reason I didn't save her mother back then was because saving her mother would hurt more people, and even if I risked everything, I might not succeed in the end.

He appeared indifferent to her, but in reality, he kept in touch with Bai Yuetian and cared about her whereabouts.

They are even actively preparing to fight against the apocalypse.

"Yue Tian told me that he has told you everything that happened in the past," Bai Yue Kui said softly.

When do you plan to apologize to him?

She gazed at her past self.

"Apologize?" The young Bai Yuekui's eyes widened, like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on, its fur standing on end.

"I'm not going to apologize to him!"

She unconsciously made a loud noise.

After she finished speaking, she realized that she had overreacted and looked embarrassed.

"Sister, I don't want to apologize," she whispered.

Bai Yuekui countered, "Why?"

"I'm not ready yet." The young Bai Yuekui bit his lip.

“My brother told me a lot, and later I checked it myself and found that the truth was indeed as he said.”

"I've been too willful all these years."

"I lost my temper with him last month, and this month I went to apologize to him. I don't know what to say, how to face him, or how to face myself."

The young Bai Yuekui's voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.

A sense of desolation was evident on her face.

If you do something wrong for decades, and one day you suddenly realize you're wrong, it really takes a lot of determination to correct it.

Bai Yuekui nodded: "So how long do you plan to prepare?"

She understood her past self; although she was naive and immature at that time, she was not the kind of person who knowingly made mistakes and refused to repent.

"I don't know," the young Bai Yuekui said, looking bewildered.

"Maybe one or two years?"

"It's possible that I won't be able to face the mistakes I made in the past until he's about to pass away."

"He was wrong too, wasn't he?"

“He’s the one who knows the whole story best. If he had told me the truth sooner, I wouldn’t have treated him like that all this time.” The young Bai Yuekui looked annoyed.

She was angry at herself for being naive and ignorant, and also angry that Bai Jingyu didn't say anything.

This is Hisakawa, not Gotham!

Bai Jingyu, you're my real dad, why are you cosplaying as the Riddler with me?
“What if he suddenly dies?” Bai Yuekui said softly.

The young Bai Yuekui was stunned.

"You finally realized you were wrong and understood your father's deep love for you," Bai Yuekui said, his expression complex as he recounted the story.

"Before you could say those words, the end of the world suddenly came."

"he died."

"You didn't even have the chance to see him one last time. All the words you wanted to say were sealed in your heart, never to be spoken again."

"What should you do after that?"
