I'm not Yingjie

The air conditioner blew warm air, making the whole room extremely warm and keeping the endless cold wind out.

Lin Ji waited patiently for the girl who was pouting in thought. She was thinking about the problem seriously, without any joking in mind.

"I don't know either." In the end, the girl came to an ordinary conclusion and said with a wry smile, "Even if I start thinking about it now, I don't know how to maximize my life value. Donate blood while alive, donate after death? But I always feel like something is missing. Do good deeds all the time? Oh, I'm so distressed."

"…You don't have to think too much. Just pretend I didn't ask."

"But."

The girl raised her head, her bright eyes still twinkling under the light: "But if it were me, I would definitely spend every day as usual."

"Why?" Even though he knew he was dying?

"Hehe, because I don't have any lofty ambitions, or in fact, most people don't have any great ideals, so I just need to live my life well."

“Perhaps many people will panic, feel regretful, desperate, and give up on themselves when they first know that their death is approaching, but they should be able to cheer up soon. After all, even if you know it, what does it matter? Death will not forgive you because of your regrets. The key is to face the rest of your life calmly.”

The chestnut-haired girl gently brushed her hair by her ears and smiled at Lin, "Even if tomorrow is the end of the world, school will still be open, traffic lights will still remain on, and farmers will still worry about this year's harvest."

"Because this is just ordinary human beings. They don't have any lofty ideals, but they still live strong."

Chapter 56: Abandoning Martial Arts

"Uncle, are you leaving?"

Anna asked as Lin walked to the door and pulled the door handle.

"Ah."

"But it's raining heavily outside." Anna looked out the window worriedly. The howling wind and rain were scary. "Besides, it's so late. Why don't you just stay at my house?"

"Need not."

"No! If you catch a cold when you go back, won't people misunderstand that I infected you?"

"...No way." Lin sorted out the logic, but still couldn't figure out how he could have mistakenly thought that she had infected him when no one knew they were together.

Lin's current erosion condition is not optimistic. He doesn't want others to stay in the same room with him for too long. Although Mebius said that there will be no big problem as long as there is not long-term close contact, it is still better to be careful.

Besides, his purpose of coming to see Anna has been achieved, so it would be better not to let her delve further into the matter.

Even if tomorrow is the end of the world, human beings are still alive and well. Perhaps this is the answer.

Faced with his death approaching, he racked his brains to think about how to make the most of his life. Anna, who was unaware of the real situation, solved his doubts.

Anna pouted and tried to persuade him to stay: "Either show me what you look like under your helmet, or stay here overnight."

"This option is not valid." Lin didn't need to choose between the two.

"Ahhh! No means no!"

"...What do you want to say?" Lin turned around and asked Anna who was angry.

"Hehe, uncle, you are quite perceptive." Anna performed a facial expression change, twirling her fingers cutely and smiled at Lin Mei, "Actually, I have something I want to ask you for help with tomorrow."

"No time."

"Oh, how shameless! I rejected the beautiful girl."

“…I’ve refused many times.”

Both Alicia and Anna are fully aware of their good looks. Lin has seen this trick countless times from Alicia, and it has no effect on him at all.

Anna keenly heard the hidden meaning in his words: "Many times? Uncle, you don't have a girlfriend, do you?"

"No."

"I do not believe."

Anna's overly subjective behavior left Lin completely speechless.

Lin paused for a moment and then said, "I'll come see you tomorrow."

After saying that, without waiting for Anna's response, he opened the door and left.

"Wow!"

The heavy rain beat down mercilessly on Lin's body.

Anna was right, the rain was heavy, as if all the water in a year was poured down all at once, soaking him.

……

Lin's appearance, Lin's age and the cause of Lin's death.

This question gave Mei a tricky feeling, as if she had been cheated.

It's like playing a game. Someone tells her at the beginning that there is a treasure in the deepest part of the palace, and your only goal is to find the treasure. However, on the way to find the treasure, you are given puzzles to solve, and the method to solve the puzzle is another puzzle. One thing leads to another, and people are always confused.

In particular, the levels of these three questions seem to be not on the same level. Mei asked Sakura, Kevin and Eden respectively, and they all answered Lin's age, which shows that age is not a secret and everyone should know it.

However, when it came to appearance, Sakura and Eden began to hesitate, and only Kevin said coldly "I know" and that was it.

Finally, when asked about the cause of Lin's death, Ying remained silent, Eden drank without saying a word, and Kevin just turned around and left.

Most of the people here died in the previous civilization. Of the Thirteen Heroes of the present civilization that Mei had seen, only Kevin and Hua were there. Even among the fusion warriors with a long lifespan, only two had reached the present civilization, so it was even less likely that Lin would survive.

But judging from their performance, Lin did not die of natural causes, but it is also impossible to confirm whether they really know the cause of Lin's death. Even Mobius has that attitude. If they don't cooperate, it will be difficult for Mei to find out who meets the requirements from this group of complicated Yingjies.

Of course, Mei doesn't have to pursue the matter of Lin. She has already obtained Lin's mark, and she should be able to get the truth by continuing to explore on her own.

But... Alicia said that if you can solve this problem, you can ask her directly...

This indirectly shows that Lin and Alicia are the key figures in the paradise of the past life. Perhaps she will still not be able to avoid these two people in the future.

Then let's try to search for information first.

Mei thought of someone. She did say that she would do intelligence business. She wondered if she was still in the store now.

So Mei entered the paradise of the afterlife with the attitude of giving it a try.

At this moment, a pair of green eyes stared at her back and smiled.

……

"Hmmmm... Today is also a bumper day for cans."

"Meow~"

"Let me see, the goods I got from Sister Wei Erwei are in..."

"Pattofilis."

"Meow meow!"

The cat-eared girl jumped up as if her tail was stepped on, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was Mei standing behind her.

"It's Mei-sister."

Mei was very curious about Padu's behavior. How could a brave girl be so timid? There shouldn't be any monster in the paradise that could beat her.

"I thought it was Brother Lin." Padu collected some strange things, and Mei happened to see the floating cannon that Lin had used before.

Do you throw it away after using it once?

Mei frowned and asked Padu: "What...are these?"

"Hmm? Sister Mei, are you interested in the merchandise? You should have told me earlier. These are all rare items." Padu happily poured out the contents of the sack. They were all weapons that Lin used when fighting her.

A micro-missile launcher that destroys the Herrscher's shield, a device that creates phantom projections, two long swords of different shapes, a large amount of gun bullets and six floating cannons.

"You...Lin bought it from you?"

"No, Brother Lin gave them to me after he was done with them and told me to do whatever I wanted with them."

"..."

In other words, these weapons are not actually advanced equipment to Lin, but rather junk that can be sold as scrap at any time?

Seeing that Meiyi didn't seem to have any desire to buy, Paduo packed the things back with a bit of disappointment: "Brother Lin said that he doesn't need these anymore, and it would be better to give them to a more suitable person, but Sister Meiyi doesn't seem to be the right person."

"I have a weapon." Mei shook her head, "No, I came to you for another matter."

"Doing business?"

"You said before that I could buy intelligence from you."

"That's right! That's right! Mei-sister, whose gossip do you want to know? I'm a well-known intelligence expert in the Land of the Past! There's nothing I don't know!"

Seeing Padu's eyes light up, Mei felt relieved and asked, "Do you know what Lin looks like?"

"..."

Then, Mei saw that although Padu was originally in high spirits, a cat-like alertness suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Chapter 57: Moving Forward

Born in darkness, with only endless nights on all sides.

He lifted his slow legs and walked towards the distance, somewhere unknown.

Slowly, it seemed to have found the direction and started running.

I couldn't tell whether the scenery around me had changed, but I could feel myself moving forward.

At some point, a beam of light appeared in the distance, so I breathed a sigh of relief and ran towards it at a faster pace.

Close.

I felt secretly relieved.

I'm about to touch that light.

"Don't come over here, Lin."

Everything stopped.

With that loud shout, everything fell into darkness.

……

Lin suddenly opened his eyes and turned over from the bed.

"Tick."

The electronic clock on the table was ticking, from five fifty-nine to six o'clock.

The flickering lights outside the window sway on the curtains.

The cup was thrown to the ground.

Sweat flowed from the corners of his forehead to the back of his hands.

"..."

"Lin, what's wrong?"

The helmet on the table emitted the voice of Prometheus.

Lin stared at the digital clock on the table.

Time keeps moving forward.

……

"Captain, is it okay for us to stay on standby at the base?"

Kosmo asked the questions that had been in his mind for the past two days.

Kevin is doing simple physical training. When he has no other tasks, he will exercise. He learned this from Lin.

Lin would often come to practice with him during this period of time. Although Lin's attacks were ruthless, they did help Kevin improve rapidly. At least now the two of them were evenly matched in bare-handed fighting.

Now the people in this empty gym are Kosmo and Kevin, and Kevin is the one providing guidance.

After leaving the headquarters and returning last time, Lin never came to the gym again. When Kevin mentioned sparring with Lin, Lin silently refused.

Mr. Lin was the first one to change, but Kevin didn't even know when he changed or why.

Kevin stood up after doing a set of push-ups and said to Kosmo, "We need to follow orders. The autonomous judgment of actions is based on the needs of the mission."

"but……"

"Kosmo." Kevin stopped him with his eyes, then waved his hands and assumed a fighting stance. "If it were Hen or Lin, they would answer you the same way. It is the nature of a soldier to obey orders."
