Their commission was suspicious.

“But when Ling described the scene of your meeting with her, you didn’t say it like that. How do you explain that?” Alicia pulled Ling out from behind Sakura.

"Uh, that... Brother Luo..." Ling, who had suddenly been pulled out from behind her sister and was now facing Chen Luo, stammered a little.

After all, he had just sold Chen Luo out.

"Hmm? Ling? What did she say?" Chen Luo glanced at Ling and asked in confusion.

“It’s that children’s playground, the children’s playground. And didn’t you recognize it at a glance?” Alicia said.

"Oh?" Chen Luo drawled.

"Ling, did you say something like that?"

"Lolo, don't even think about it..."

"No, absolutely not. What children's playground? I don't know anything about it!" Ling immediately stood up straight and shook her head.

"!!!"

Alicia, who wanted Rin to betray her, ended up being betrayed by Rin herself.

Chapter 233 Pink Alicia should be captured with a pink sack!

"I'm so angry! Why are you so stubborn?" After Ling betrayed her, Alicia couldn't provide any evidence that Chen Luo was indeed Chen Luo, and she glared angrily at Chen Luo.

Chen Luo is clearly Chen Luo, but he won't admit it.

"Eden, he bullied me." Alicia pulled Eden over and hugged him.

“Alright, Ellie, if he doesn’t want to admit it, then he doesn’t have to. What difference does it make?” Eden comforted Ellie.

"No, no, this was originally a welcome party for him, but Lolo won't admit he's Lolo, how can we go on like this?" Ellie shook her head.

"So the welcome party you're talking about is just blinding people with fireworks, fixing their shape with nets, and then tying them up in sacks?" Chen Luo couldn't help but complain from the side.

“This is a pink burlap sack, the same color as my hair,” Alicia emphasized.

"..."

"Besides, it's your fault for putting me in that pink sack back then. Now that I'm putting you in it, why are you getting angry?" Alicia said angrily.

"When you asked me what color burlap sack I liked, I thought you were joking. Who knew you actually found a pink burlap sack somewhere? I'm just getting back at you now." Aisha's tone suddenly became a little aggrieved.

Upon hearing Alicia's words, Chen Luo's heart stirred.

"A pink burlap sack?" Chen Luo asked softly.

"Yes, yes. Alicia belongs to everyone, how can you keep her all to yourself? You're so greedy," Alicia huffed in dissatisfaction.

"Isn't that pink sack you saw before very similar to this?" Chen Luo asked Alicia, holding the pink sack, after rescuing Raven from a net and a sack.

"Huh? Now that you mention it, it does look quite similar." After Chen Luo's suggestion, Alicia looked the burlap sack over and over and suddenly realized that it really did look like the pink burlap sack Chen Luo had used to cover her back then.

"I see, I understand now. It was all Steins;Gate's choice." Chen Luo nodded in realization and then put the pink burlap sack into his backpack.

I'll use this pink burlap sack to cover Alicia's turban once more.

Chen Luo's actions were definitely not to avenge Alicia's earlier attempt to trap him, but rather to follow the choices of fate.

Yes, it's definitely not for revenge.

Judging from the fact that he got another children's playground from Ling right after he got one, he is likely to use what he has now in the future.

Is it possible that Alicia, who was once covered in a pink sack, harbored resentment and planned to cover Chen Luo in a sack again when they met 5 years later?

So Alicia specially commissioned Velvi to customize this burlap sack made of special materials, intending to put it on Chen Luo. However, Chen Luo noticed something was wrong beforehand and avoided it.

Then, they traveled back 5 years through the bar and used the sack that Alicia herself made to cover Alicia.

Then, Alicia harbored resentment and planned to trap Chen Luo 5 years later...

Hmm, that's a very reasonable explanation.

Chen Luo decided to obey fate and history.

But then the question arises: did Chen Luo trap Alicia first, or did Alicia trap Chen Luo first?

"Wait, what do you mean?" Alicia sensed something was wrong.

Especially after Chen Luo quickly put the sack into that strange space, Alicia sensed something was even more wrong.

“Ellie, after eliminating all the impossible factors, no matter how unbelievable what’s left, that’s the truth.” Su slowly walked over from behind.

"And haven't we all noticed it? Luo's attitude of wanting to integrate into the world but always maintaining a sense of detachment and distance." Even with his eyes closed, Su's words were still convincing.

"At certain crucial moments, he will try his best to minimize the losses, as if he has the ability to predict or see through the script. Moreover, compared to the Luo of the past, although the current Luo is still strong and his ability to escape is superb, he still seems a bit green."

Although Su didn't open her eyes, she saw things more clearly than anyone else.

"Sigh, but this is too outrageous, isn't it? I can hardly believe it." When Alicia was pointed out, she didn't seem too surprised, but a little doubt still lingered between her brows.

Clearly, Alicia had some suspicions about this, but she still didn't quite dare to believe it.

“I’m not saying that Lolo is weak. In fact, no one has ever been able to truly test his strength. But to say that he is so powerful that he can travel back in time and cross a distance of 5 years is really too impossible, right? It would be difficult to reverse time even a little bit, wouldn’t it?” Alicia looked Chen Luo up and down.

"If Alo's strength is truly so great that he can travel back in time to 5 years ago, then why couldn't he save civilization with such power? That's very strange," Alicia said, somewhat puzzled.

"Perhaps it wasn't that there was no way to save them, but rather that there was no way to save them. In fact, Luo appeared at the Firemoth quite late, not long after the destruction of civilization, was he?"

"In fact, at that point in time, the more people understood the current situation, the more desperate they were about it, wasn't that right? Beset by internal and external troubles, humanity faced not only collapse, but also the collapse of humanity itself..." Su's voice was unusually filled with a touch of vicissitude.

Perhaps it was because Su had seen so much that she had a deeper understanding of the situation at the time.

"Don't say that, Su. Humanity isn't as hopeless as you make it out to be. The souls within humanity that shine with light and hope are the most beautiful things in the world. Besides, even though our civilization has failed, haven't we still left a spark for future generations?"

"Moreover, Luo did do something. He may have already made many people's endings as perfect as possible, we just don't know it. At least I don't believe that Luo, who was somewhat estranged from the previous civilization but still gave his heart, would do nothing when he knew the world was about to be destroyed."

At this point, Alicia couldn't help but look at Ling, who was standing next to Chen Luo, looking rather obedient and embarrassed.

Standing next to Chen Luo, Ling looked just like a little girl who had done something wrong, standing next to her parent.

Chen Luo's indifference seemed to add a touch of soul to this atmosphere of "doing something wrong".

If Sakura and Ling are sisters, then Chen Luo and Ling are like father and daughter.

“That’s right.” Su nodded in agreement.

At least in terms of saving the day, Chen Luo was indeed good enough, even too good. Ling's appearance was a pleasant surprise for everyone in Ying Jie.

Needless to say, Sakura herself was overwhelmed with emotion upon seeing her younger sister again after tens of thousands of years, and seeing that she still retained her innocence. The word "excitement" could not be used to describe her feelings.

If Sakura were a bound spirit belonging to the Pure Land of the Past, she might have already become a Buddha.

Even Qianjie, who was always cursing and swearing, temporarily suppressed his pent-up anger when he saw Ling.

If Aponia knew this, she would probably come out of the Deep, but unfortunately, Aponia stays in the Deep and is far too out of touch with the world.

Not just anyone can go to the deepest part of the place. Alicia can go there freely, but she has been thinking about how to surprise Chen Luo these past few days.

It's not that Aponia was forgotten in the deepest part.

Instead, Alicia always felt that Aponia would come out without her having to call her, because Aponia always sensed Chen Luo very keenly whenever he appeared.

Perhaps Aponia is emerging from the deepest abyss right now.

"However, perhaps it was the seeds we left for the next civilization that led to the destruction of our world." Suddenly, Su's tone changed in a way that was hard to describe.

"What do you mean?"

"Based on current observations, the earliest known civilization of Luo should be in the present, 5 years from now, not from 5 years ago. The terrifying nature of time is self-evident; changing something small 5 years ago could lead to a catastrophe 5 years later. In other words..."

"So, in other words, only one of our civilization and the civilization born from Alo can exist under Alo's control, right? Saving the previous civilization from the Honkai means that the current civilization is about to perish. Oh dear, I didn't expect Lolo to be under so much pressure, bearing the life and death of two civilizations." Alicia suddenly looked at Chen Luo with some pity.

For ordinary people, bearing the life and death of two families is one thing, but bearing the life and death of two countries is another, and for the most extraordinary, it's bearing the life and death of two races. Chen Luo, however, is bearing the life and death of two civilizations. To say that the pressure isn't immense would be impossible.

Alicia herself was not angry because Chen Luo did not save the civilization or choose the civilization. Instead, she felt sorry for the pressure Chen Luo was under. As expected of the popular Alicia.

"..." Chen Luo stood silently beside Raven.

The burden of the life-or-death struggle between two civilizations is too heavy for Chen Luo to bear; he simply cannot save them.

The existence of a pre-civilization signifies the demise of the current civilization.

Chen Luo doesn't have much of an obsession with the pre-civilization, at least for now. The only pre-civilization Chen Luo knows of is Mebius, and at most, Klein. There really can't be any more.

The key point is that the only two people they knew survived in the previous civilization and made it to the future.

If Mebius didn't want to die, he could survive in this devastated pre-civilization even without entering the hibernation pod.

As for Klein...

Chen Luo has done everything he could; now he can only leave the rest to fate.

So, without knowing anyone else from the previous civilization, they went to destroy the present era for their sake...

That's not what you call a great benefactor; that's called chaotic evil.

You're so high and mighty, so amazing. You're trading billions of people in this modern civilization for a hopeless past civilization.

Judging from the fact that the current civilization is still thriving, Chen Luo in the future has at least not replaced the previous civilization with the current one. However, Chen Luo in the present does not know what changes he has made.

Although there are 13 people involved in the case here now, Chen Luo feels that they may not know the truth, or at least it is impossible for them to know the complete truth.

Chen Luo believed he knew himself quite well and that keeping it a secret was definitely the right thing to do.

“Aili, you’re right, but there’s one thing you’re wrong about. Have you forgotten? At least from Ling’s account, Rocco isn’t from this world. He’s from another world,” Su suddenly said.

"Oh, I remember now, but if that's the case, then I'm going to get angry." Alicia, who had been looking understanding, suddenly puffed out her cheeks, walked up to Chen Luo, and glared at him angrily.

"Hmm?" Chen Luo subconsciously took a step back.

What kind of trouble is this former civilized woman up to now?

“If you were born in the current civilization, Alo, I could understand why you chose the current civilization over the other two. But since you are an outsider, you still chose the current civilization. That makes me angry. Am I, Alicia, not pretty enough? Or is our relationship not sincere enough?” Tears welled up in Alicia’s eyes, and she lowered her head in disappointment.

"Um..." Chen Luo didn't know what to say for a moment when he saw Alicia in this state.

Hearing Chen Luo's hesitant, guilty, and self-reproachful tone, Alicia, who had her head down, smirked.

"Just kidding!" Alicia suddenly jumped up, startling Chen Luo.

"Sorry? We're really not that close." But at the same time, Chen Luo also uttered six words.

"..." Alicia's smile froze on her face.

"Ugh!!! I'm so angry! Kevin! Beat him up!" Alicia pointed at Chen Luo in a fit of rage, while simultaneously speaking to Kevin, who was standing there like a block of ice.

“You can’t hit it.” Kevin said coldly.

"Where's my sack? Where's my sack?" Angry Alicia suddenly started looking for her sack, almost forgetting that Chen Luo had taken it away.

I'm going to seduce him 100 times! 100 times!

Okay, use a burlap sack to cover it.

Remembering the sack in Chen Luo's hands, Alicia suddenly spotted the large net on the ground that could swallow a whole person.

Alicia grabbed the long handle of the large net and swung it towards Chen Luo.

If we don't have burlap sacks, a net will do.

"Holy crap!" Chen Luo was startled when he saw the huge net coming towards him, and then subconsciously pulled the raven he was holding onto in front of him.

"..." Looking at the approaching net overhead, Raven glanced at Chen Luo with a look of utter despair.

nnnd!

"I'm sorry, it was all very sudden just now. How about this, I'll give you a penance scroll?" Chen Luo sincerely apologized to the raven wearing a net on its head.

Meanwhile, on the other side, at the culprit's place, Alicia was also poking her fingers together with her hands.

"That indulgence, if I remember correctly, was something I bought to make you forgive me, right? How did it become something I used to forgive you? So I spent 200 work points to buy an indulgence to make me forgive you?" Raven was furious as she looked at Chen Luo apologizing.

“This indulgence is worth 200 work points. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll just forget about the bet you lost earlier, okay? Please forgive me, dear Nata.”

"Don't call me by my name like that," Raven said angrily.

While Chen Luo was apologizing, Eden was also trying to persuade Alicia.

"Is it possible that, Ellie, Luo doesn't actually know us?"
