Homura Akemi's voice was calm, but it was full of a direct and forceful tone.

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

Ye Lisha smiled slightly, looking at the question with a puzzled expression, not understanding what it was.

The next second her pupils shrank, and she saw that Homura Akemi had disappeared from her sight. By the time she realized it, she was already standing behind her, reaching out and pressing her shoulder.

"Didn't you already guess? Leng Chang isn't the person you know, so why are you still deceiving yourself like this?"

"..."

Suddenly, an endless silence descended, and Ye Lisha slowly lowered her head, her expression unseen.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

When she spoke again, her voice was hoarse with suppressed anger.

We're leaving.

Homura Akemi didn't dwell on the issue further, but instead spoke calmly.

Upon hearing these words, Ye Lisha, who was sitting in the chair, widened her eyes in shock and abruptly looked up at Homura Akemi: "What do you mean?"

"The literal meaning. The matter here has been investigated and clarified. The reason for the logistical delay was that the Liu family replaced the supplies with near-expiry ones halfway through the journey. The person who carried out the order was Liu Yin, and the order was issued by Long Heng."

Homura Akemi calmly recounted everything.

"Long Heng?!"

Ye Lisha stared in disbelief, her eyes wide with shock, but she quickly came to a thoughtful understanding of everything.

From the very beginning, she sensed that someone was making arrangements for her, but she never expected it to be her direct superior, Long Heng, who had promoted her.

Moreover, the current mission was issued by Long Heng, which means that the ambush on the way and Gao Zhen's suicide were both tacitly approved by Long Heng.

"Holy crap—! How could it be him?!"

Ye Lisha gritted her teeth and angrily rebuked, clenching her fist and slamming it hard on the desk.

Homura Akemi didn't seem to care about the situation and said seriously, "What happens next is not something you can get involved in."

You want me to give up?

"This is the best option for you."

"What a joke! Do you know what I've worked so hard for?! If I give up now... then who will defend against the monsters' attacks in the future?!"

Ye Lisha roared through gritted teeth, her eyes bloodshot, as if she were seeing the beast tide breaking through the defense line once again.

If I give up here, it won't just be me, but the death of three million residents.

Homura Akemi, unaware of Ye Lisha's reasons for her insistence, said calmly, "I don't know what you're insisting on, but you really shouldn't be the one to take action now. Are you going to shoulder all the pressure and go against your boss? Even if you can manage, the question is, how are you going to deal with someone who holds your life in their hands?"

"Why? Who are you people?!"

Ye Lisha looked up at Homura Akemi and questioned her loudly.

Homura Akemi calmly leaned down and whispered in Ye Lisa's ear, "You don't think you're the only one who knows everything, do you, Reborn One?"

"!!"

Thump! Thump! Boom!

Ye Lisha's pupils dilated in shock as she opened her eyes and stared at Akemi Homura in disbelief.

Her rebirth was her biggest secret, and now that it had been so easily exposed by Homura Akemi, how could she not be shocked?

"Could it be that you also..."

She asked nervously, if that were the case, she could tell Leng Chang everything.

"No. This world is not the world you know. Simply put, your world is broken, and for a broken world to survive, it must merge with other worlds. It just so happens that it has merged with this world."

"What do you mean?"

"You've already realized it, haven't you? Leng Chang isn't the Leng Chang you remember."

Homura Akemi didn't continue explaining, but instead spoke earnestly.

"..."

Ye Lisha pursed her lips, not wanting to answer the question, and just looked at it intently.

"Ye Lisha! Isn't it strange? Why is Gao Zhen, who is supposed to be dead, still alive? Why did Leng Chang remind you that he is not that person? Why can't you feel any closeness to Leng Chang no matter how hard you try?"

"Stop talking!!"

"That's because you've been wrong from the start. We're not the people you think we are, not even from the same world."

Homura Akemi's voice was like a knife piercing Ye Lisa's heart, making her tremble with fear.

The next second, Ye Lisha pulled out her pistol and angrily pointed it at Homura Akemi. However, at the same time, Homura Akemi also pointed her pistol at Ye Lisha.

"You bastard—!"

Ye Lisha gritted her teeth and glared angrily at Akemi Homura.

The gun barrels, like black holes, were pointed at each other's heads. The air seemed to become still as the two men stared at each other expressionlessly.

"I'm sorry to break your happiness, but it's time to accept reality."

Homura Akemi looked at Ye Lisa intently without the slightest hesitation.

"What exactly is your purpose?!"

Ye Lisha angrily questioned him.

"It's very simple: restore the world to its original state. Let you return to your own world."

Homura Akemi's deep eyes were filled with coldness and a chilling light.

"you--!"

Ye Lisha roared, even tightening her grip on the trigger, as if she wanted to kill Akemi Homura right now.

As long as I kill her, no one will know what happened here, and I can continue.

As long as Leng Chang is by her side, she will not be afraid even if she cannot change her fate of death in the end.

However, just as she was about to pull the trigger, she hesitated and once again saw Leng Chang's hand on hers, stopping her. A familiar, gentle voice rang out, "This is not what you should be doing, Commander."

"..."

She gritted her teeth, suppressing her anger and her own pain, as she watched tears well up in Homura Akemi's eyes.

Just then, the office door was pushed open.

Leng Chang, Sato Kazuma, and Kitahara Iori walked in with smiles on their faces.

In an instant, Homura Akemi and Lisa Ye looked over at the same time, their murderous gazes were incredibly piercing.

"Ah! My eyes! I can't see anything!"

"Yabei! I forgot to turn off the gas!"

"Oh no! My stomach hurts, I can't hold it in anymore."

The three of them quickly retreated silently with their own excuses, and even closed the door behind them.

The next second, Homura Akemi and Lisa Ye both had a glint in their eyes and shouted.

"Get in here!"

"Get in here!"

crunch.

The door opened again, and Leng Chang, Kitahara Iori, and Sato Kazuma peeked out silently, their clear eyes revealing their eyes.

Then he quietly walked in, and gave a friendly smile as he looked at the two sides facing off.

"I don't know what happened, but could you please put down your guns? After all... you can't kill people like this."

"..."

"..."

Leng Chang's words immediately silenced everyone, and they all felt their lips twitch slightly.

What you said is true, but aren't you just adding fuel to the fire?

Kitahara Iori and Sato Kazuma couldn't help but give a thumbs up, their eyes filled with admiration and praise.

As expected of Chusheng, his words are truly unique.

This incident weakened the aura of Homura Akemi and Lisa Ye, and the tense atmosphere from before disappeared.

Finally, Ye Lisha was the first to put down her gun, and she collapsed into a chair as if she had completely broken down.

"It wasn't easy... to get to where we are now..."

Her voice was filled with sadness; she still refused to accept the current situation.

Homura Akemi silently put away her weapon and turned to look at Leng Chang, saying, "I've explained it for you."

"You call what just happened an explanation?"

Leng Chang asked dumbfoundedly, "Is this what you call an explanation, given that you were about to fire a shot the next second?"

"The rest is up to you."

Homura Akemi said nonchalantly, and silently walked to the side to lean against the wall.

"..."

They truly are one of our own.

Leng Chang looked at Homura Akemi speechlessly, feeling utterly overwhelmed. He turned to Kitahara Iori and Sato Kazuma for help, only to find them munching on potato chips and popcorn with their mouths dripping with oil.

There's no hope.

But it doesn't matter!

Now we have no choice but to reveal our last trump card!

When it comes to shamelessness, I'm definitely the better one!

His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said earnestly, "When did you discover it?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lisha took a deep breath, looked up, and sighed, saying, "Perhaps it was on the way here... the moment you captured the assassin."

"I see."

Leng Chang nodded thoughtfully.

"A recent college graduate actually managed to cross two kilometers to catch the killer and bring him back in the blink of an eye... Heh..."

Ye Lisha gave a self-deprecating laugh, then shook her head, her expression full of bitterness.

"So why did you admit it? I told you a long time ago that you mistook me for someone else."

Leng Chang subtly sat down in the chair opposite Ye Lisha, his expression full of concern.

"If you're not, how can I keep going? What's the point of me saving all this...? You all know I'm a reincarnated person, right?"

"know."

"Since I've been reborn, why hasn't Leng Chang been reborn? If he's not here, what's the point of my rebirth!"

Unable to control herself, Ye Lisha slammed her fist on the table. The violent impact echoed throughout the office, and a fierce glint flashed in her dark eyes.

"Since you're not the Leng Chang I know, then tell me! Where is the person I do know!"

She angrily questioned Leng Chang.

"..."

Leng Chang felt a little guilty about this. Normally, he was Leng Chang, but as a noble person who didn't choose his partner, that identity of Leng Chang was excluded by his passivity.

But it doesn't matter!

There's still a chance!

If the world is unbound from integration, then everything can return to its most original starting point.

"Answer me! If you're not Leng Chang, then who are you?!"

Ye Lisha stared intently at Leng Chang and asked loudly, as she was already showing signs of a relapse.
