Kirara Yoshikage gave a warning:
"Close the door."
Akiyama Mio silently closed the door, locked it, and then sat down opposite Kira Yoshikage somewhat stiffly.
Kirara Yoshikage whispered:
"Tell me what happened, in terms of time."
"it is good."
Akiyama Mio took a deep breath and sorted out her thoughts. "Probably, around 8 o'clock, I will die, and so will Ritsu and the others. We will be strangled to death by the manager of that livehouse, a woman with severe burns and bandages all over her body, and then hung from the ceiling with bandages.
“At 7:08, I went back in time, which should have been exactly an hour ago.
"We wanted to leave the livehouse, but the manager stopped us. There were also other people in the livehouse who stood in our way. The manager wanted to kill me, but was..."
She paused, “Stopped by Killer Queen, they all exploded in front of me and time went back again.
"At 6:15, I sent a message to Kira-kun to confirm, and then came here as Kira-kun requested."
Kira Yoshikage touched the screen of his phone, lighting it up. It was now 19:02.
Since the backtracking time is 6:15, the explosion should have occurred at 7:15.
There are still 13 minutes left.
Kirara Yoshikage withdrew his gaze from the time displayed on his phone and asked softly:
"Let me confirm first. At 7:15, when the explosion occurred, Tianzhong and the others were still alive, right?"
"Ah."
Akiyama Mio recalled carefully and nodded heavily.
They were alive, she could confirm that.
But why did Kira-kun ask this?
Time has gone back. Even if the time comes to 19:15 again, what happened before the go back will not happen again, right?
If nothing can be changed, then wouldn’t it be a waste of time to go back?
"Can you wait a little longer?"
"No problem at all."
After a brief thought, Akiyama Mio nodded and agreed to Kira Yoshikage's request.
After all, it was Kira-kun who saved them, so she could do anything.
"Anything you want to ask?"
In view of Akiyama Mio's cooperation, Kira Yoshikage didn't mind answering some of her questions.
But before Akiyama Mio asked, Kira Yoshikage took the initiative to explain:
“Killer Queen is my stand, you can think of it as a special superpower.
"Although Killer Queen can turn back time, there is a price to pay and a strict limit on the number of times she can do so. If you fail to save yourself and others within three times of turning back, you will still die, because turning back time cannot change a predetermined fate."
"Then let's..."
Akiyama Mio's face turned pale. Wouldn't they still die at 8 o'clock?
"Except the one time I took the initiative to use it."
Kirara Yoshikage saw her fear and whispered:
“简单来讲,第一次回溯是从8:08回到7:08。因为是我主动使用能力,所以从7:08到8:08的这一个小时已经被改变,即便原本会发生的事情也不会再发生。
“第二次回溯是你从7:15回到6:15,由于这一次回溯是被动发生的。所以从6:15到7:15这期间发生的事情,必定会再次发生。”
Kira Yoshikage picked up the empty coffee cup on the table:
“如果这个杯子会在7:07摔碎,那即便你在7:15将时间回溯至6:15。如果不加干涉,这个杯子依旧会在7:07摔碎。
"By the same token, if someone dies at 7:10, they will still die at 7:10 even if they go back in time."
Akiyama Mio immediately understood:
"So the people who exploded in the livehouse will explode again at 7:15?"
"Correct."
Kira Yoshikage nodded slightly. He understood it very quickly.
"But……"
Akiyama Mio frowned slightly. For some reason, she always felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what it was.
But soon, she seemed to have thought of something and blurted out:
"If what happened during the flashback period is bound to happen, then it shouldn't be only the people who died during this period who will die, right? Just like we were originally going to enter that livehouse at 7:00, doesn't that mean that when the explosion happened, I will still be there? But I'm clearly here now!"
“That’s why I said, without interference.”
Kira Yoshikage said this and suddenly threw the cup in his hand towards Akiyama Mio.
"what!"
Akiyama Mio exclaimed and subconsciously caught the cup to prevent it from falling to the ground.
Kira Yoshikage continued to explain:
"This cup should have broken at 7:07, but it didn't because you caught it."
Akiyama Mio asked subconsciously:
"Is fate changed?"
But she soon remembered what Kira Yoshikage said, 'Going back in time cannot change the predetermined fate. What has happened will definitely happen again.' A guess that is closer to the truth flashed through her mind, and she looked a little hesitant:
"Destiny was 'delayed'?"
"Correct."
Kira Yoshikage nodded slightly, stretched out his hand towards the girl, and motioned Akiyama Mio to hand him the cup.
Then, Kira Yoshikage loosened his grip and let the cup fall freely.
And this time, no one interfered.
With a snap, the cup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
"It didn't break at 7:07, but it will still break at 7:08. What has happened will definitely happen, but human intervention can delay the event of 'cup breaking'.
"Of course, you can also make the event happen in advance, for example, you can actively break the cup at 7:06. In this way, the broken cup cannot be broken twice.
"And the only one who can interfere with fate and delay or advance the occurrence of events is you, the one who knows that time has been reversed."
"so."
Akiyama Mio quickly understood and began to analyze carefully, "We were originally going to enter that livehouse at 7:00, but because of my interference, the event of 'appearing in the livehouse' was also delayed. We will still enter that livehouse, but not at 7:00."
"Correct."
Kira Yoshikage nodded, "But it will only last until 7:15, because then I will disarm the bomb. When the bomb is disarmed, even the fate that was originally going to happen will be changed, and you will not have to enter that livehouse again."
Akiyama Mio breathed a sigh of relief. If that was the case, then there was nothing to worry about.
But the reason why Kira-kun insisted on defusing the bomb at 7:15 was probably to ensure that the 'people' in the livehouse were killed, right?
No, even though her vision was blurry at the time, she could vaguely discern the changes that had taken place in the livehouse.
One thing she was sure of was that those people were definitely not human!
Akiyama Mio asked cautiously:
"Kira-kun, are there ghosts in this world?"
"Have."
Kira Yoshikage gave an affirmative answer, "But more people call them 'spirits'. There are good spirits, but more are evil spirits. Some people also call them vengeful spirits or cursed spirits. Correspondingly, there are also people with special abilities. I call them psychics, but some people consider themselves sorcerers or Onmyojis."
"So the 'people' in that livehouse are actually all evil spirits?"
"should be."
"why?"
"what why?"
"Why do they become ghosts?"
"I do not know."
"Huh?" Akiyama Mio blinked.
Kira Yoshikage slowly raised a finger:
“First, let’s make one fact clear.
“I am neither omniscient nor omnipotent.
"It's not like I can always give you an answer if you ask me."
"..."
Akiyama Mio blushed a little. For a moment, she really felt that Kira Yoshikage was an omniscient and omnipotent god!
But if you think about it carefully, you will find that this is actually a false proposition, just like the classic question on the Internet:
Could God create a stone that he couldn't lift?
If he can, it means that God is not omnipotent, and there are still stones in this world that He cannot lift.
If not, it means God is not omnipotent, because he cannot create a stone that he cannot lift.
Since it is normal that gods are not omniscient and omnipotent, doesn't it make sense for her to think that Kira Yoshikage is a god?
After all, Kira-kun can even go back in time. Although there is a limit to the number of times he can do it, this is already very powerful!
Even God may not be able to do such a thing, right?
"Anything else you want to ask?"
Kira Yoshikage's voice brought the girl back to reality. She hesitated for a moment and shook her head slightly.
Although she still had many questions, Kira Yoshikage had already answered enough, and it would be impolite to ask more.
Kira Yoshikage looked at his phone. It was 7:16.
He stood up and put his hand on top of Akiyama Mio's head.
Akiyama Mio obediently moved closer so that he could touch her actually.
"..."
Kira Yoshikage was silent for a while, but in fact he just wanted to retrieve Killer Queen.
But it doesn’t matter.
He doesn't lose anything anyway.
Ruffling the girl's hair, Kirara Yoshikage gently advised:
"Then I'll leave first, you wait two minutes before leaving."
"Okay, okay."
The girl's pretty face flushed slightly and she lowered her head shyly.
"And one more thing."
Kira Yoshikage stopped, holding the door handle of the private room.
Akiyama Mio raised her head.
"You pay for the coffee cup."
"Eh?"
Akiyama Mio blinked, but before she could react, Kira Yoshikage had already left the private room and the cafe.
"Eh!!!"
