Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

"So, while there's still time, let's be honest and get to know each other better, okay?"

"...Why are you so cruel all of a sudden?"

Since the outbreak of the Honkai, Anna had been exhausted physically and mentally after suffering a series of blows. Her already tender heart was now even more fragile, like a little girl whose beloved things were taken away by an adult. She suddenly became angry. Her voice was filled with tears and extreme resistance.

"You could have kept me in the dark from beginning to end like last time, wouldn't that be better?"

"What if one day someone told you that the Lin Wei you knew was fake and that he had been deceiving you and exploiting you from the beginning? What would you do?"

Lin Wei's voice was still gentle, but she didn't show any intention of accommodating Anna.

“…How could that be?”

Anna suddenly felt empty inside, as if she realized something. Then she suddenly woke up, as if she was trying to prove something, and waved her hands repeatedly, explaining in a panic,

"You've come to such a dangerous place just for me. If you hadn't showed up in time, I would have died right there... How could you, Lin Wei, be such a bad person who deceived and exploited me?"

She said these words in a very fast tone, then kept silent, looking at Lin Wei pitifully like a little girl who had made a mistake.

It's as if to say, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Lin Wei sighed slightly. Her behavior made him even more worried.

Don’t you know that the more anxious you are to prove something, the more it proves that you are actually very insecure?

"But what if he takes this out?"

Lin Wei's tone became a little tougher, like a strict examiner, and he once again held the black Heiyuan Baihua in his hand.

"I……"

Anna's mouth was dry.

"Or, what about this?"

Lin Wei's voice slowed down slightly, but his hands did not stop moving.

The lance disintegrated into a puff of black smoke again, and then the black abyss quickly condensed into a gorgeous, deep bead; as the bead slowly rotated, Anna's body slowly floated up as if soaked in water, and then slowly fell down.

However, Anna fell right on the edge of the bed where the unconscious little girl was placed. When Lin Wei gently pushed her, she sat down in a daze.

"Look, if he, or something else, showed you what I just showed you, or even more things you don't know, would you still be able to convince yourself so easily?"

Lin Wei's voice was still cruel.

"…Why are you showing me this?"

Anna's voice was a little confused and tired, with an unspeakable sadness and anger at being toyed with. She asked in disbelief,

"Didn't you promise me that you wouldn't be my enemy? Why are you suddenly telling me all this?"

"It's precisely because I don't want this day to come, so I want to make everything clear as soon as possible while there's still time."

Lin Wei shook his head helplessly, and said angrily and amusedly,

"Who made you, a silly girl, so gullible? You're naive, stubborn, and prone to getting stuck in a rut... Sigh, I'm really afraid someone will take advantage of you one day."

They are both Valkyries and are of similar age; but why is Rita so smart, while look at Anna - she is just a complete fool!

They all come from the same system, so why is there such a big difference?

Lin Wei is baffled by her sister...

"Calling someone stupid! Calling someone gullible!"

Anna was embarrassed and angry. She stood up and ran over to slap Lin Wei's chest, protesting as she did so.

"You are naive! You are stubborn! You are obsessed with trivial matters!"

Anna had never suffered such a series of negative words since she was a child; especially when they came out of the mouth of... the guy in front of her, she felt even more angry and wanted to bite him!

"Okay, okay, everything you said is right..."

Now that it has come to this, let her vent her anger. What else can Lin Wei do?

"Haha, this incident has caused..."

Seeing Anna using this childish way to quickly vent all her anxiety and uneasiness, Lin Wei first breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled helplessly.

He felt that he had indeed bullied others today...

Although he also didn't want to get to this point today, but as he said himself - some things have already happened, and running away will not solve any problems.

Whether it's out of consideration for confronting Otto, or out of consideration for being wary of the "Honkai Will" that hangs over his head like a sword of Damocles and seems to be full of some kind of evil taste; this confusing account between him and Anna must be sorted out as soon as possible!

At least, we must not give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of the situation!

Once we bring Anna back to a safe place, it will be difficult for us to have this kind of alone time together again, and it will be even more impossible to have the opportunity to be so honest with each other!

So, no matter how Anna begged and resisted, Lin Wei had to take this opportunity to speak out in advance.

Otherwise, do I have to wait for Otto to add fuel to the fire, or for that "Will of Honkai" to play a carefully edited short movie in Anna's mind; then I have to walk up to her and shout "It's not like that", and then find a way to wake her up?

Why bother yourself with things that can be solved in advance?

So the unconscious and dying little girl appeared at the right time, which happened to give Lin Wei the time and opportunity to plug the leak in advance; how could he not seize it?

Anna took the opportunity to make a scene and vent all the grievances in her heart.

After calming down, Anna felt that her behavior just now was too nonsensical and too ambiguous. She couldn't help blushing, hurriedly helped Lin Wei to straighten her messed up collar, and sat back in a hurry.

"Speak now, you enemy of destiny! I want to see what you have to say to me, the Valkyrie of destiny!"

Anna pretended to be calm and said,

"Tell me all the secrets and stories you have."

Those words also made her understand Lin Wei's intentions and concerns - bad things might happen in the future, so it was better to speak frankly in advance to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings in the future.

This is not difficult to understand, so after calming down, Anna finally chose to accept this kindness.

You don’t want to be my enemy, so you can make things difficult for me, right?

Anna thought indignantly.

She also understood that something big must have happened, otherwise Lin Wei would not have changed his previous secretive style and become so frank and tough all of a sudden.

"Could it be related to this collapse?"

Anna thought with some worry; she was worried about the captain and teammates in the distance, and also worried about Lin Wei in front of her.

After all, she was just a little naive and ignorant of the world, not really stupid.

But even though she had made full preparations, she was still stunned by Lin Wei's next words -

"Do you know Yuno?"

Lin Wei said suddenly.

"...I know. She's a good friend I met at headquarters."

Yuno was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lin Wei in disbelief.

"How do you know Yuno? Is she related to you as well?"

Have they already infiltrated the Destiny headquarters without anyone noticing?

Have I provoked a guy who is deliberately trying to overturn the destiny?

Anna, overwhelmed by her imagination, wailed in her heart...

"I do know Yuno, but she may not be what you think. She is a survivor I rescued in Changkong City..."

Lin Wei knew from her eyes that this girl must have started to imagine some weird plot again; so he decisively told the truth.

"If I hadn't overheard you mention it when we were on Coral Island, I wouldn't have known you knew her, let alone that she was sent to the Destiny Headquarters."

At this point, Lin Wei spread his hands helplessly.

"Look, it's quite a coincidence, isn't it?"

"When did I..."

Anna was about to retort when she suddenly remembered that when she rescued the little girl who also came from Chiba Academy, she did mention Yuno once in order to build a closer relationship with her and appease her emotions.

"Okay, that's true. But wasn't she sent to headquarters by the Far East branch? How does that have anything to do with you?"

"Because I'm also from Changkong City!"

Lin Wei smiled lightly and said as a matter of course.

"...Are you planning to make up another excuse to deceive me?"

Anna had a complicated expression, not knowing whether she should still believe Lin Wei.

"Except for the incident with that photo, I have never lied to you, Anna. It's just that for various reasons, I had to hide some things to make it seem true."

Lin Wei said seriously,

"And now, I'm going to tell you the whole truth, to let you know who 'Lin Wei' really is."

After thinking about it, he suddenly couldn't help laughing. Facing Anna's puzzled eyes, he shook his head and said self-deprecatingly,

"Although, this 'truth' may sound even more outrageous than the lie..."

"Okay, wait for me!"

Anna suddenly jumped up from the bed, looked around, and ran out of the room quickly; a moment later she ran back quickly, holding a chair that she had brought from somewhere.

Then, with a "bang", she landed in front of Lin Wei's chair, clapped her hands in satisfaction, and sat on it. She leaned forward slightly and looked at Lin Wei's face closely.

"Okay. You talk, I listen."

This guy……

"Let me think about where to begin..."

Lin Wei looked at Anna who had regained her vitality, felt relieved, sorted out her words, and said,

"I am a resident of Changkong City. I lived there until the third Houkai outbreak."

"Well, you said you were a survivor there."

Anna nodded. She remembered every word Lin Wei had said.

"I'm a survivor, yes, but I didn't just survive the collapse by chance. On the contrary, I escaped before the collapse broke out."

The identity of "traveller" was too strange to explain clearly, so Lin Wei changed the way he told Anna about his experience.

"One night when I was sleeping, I dreamed of something that would happen in the future, and I knew in advance that Changkong City would be destroyed."

After a pause, allowing Anna to digest the rather large amount of information in this sentence, he said,

"Before I escaped, I sold all my property and used the money to spread some rumors online, hoping that the rumors would scare some people and make them escape like me. Haha, I don't know how effective the rumors were, but I know that I was definitely being watched by Heaven..."

"what!"

Anna, who was listening intently, couldn't help but exclaimed at the word "destiny" and asked hurriedly,

"Then what?"

She naturally knew what methods Tianming usually adopted to deal with such destructive things; so she couldn't help but feel a little worried, and completely forgot that Lin Wei was sitting in front of her intact at this moment.

"Speaking of which, it should have been a bad thing; but for me at that time, it turned out to be a good thing..."

Lin Wei gently rolled up his sleeves and looked at his fair, undamaged arm, recalling how it looked a year ago when it was covered with lines of collapse and erosion.

"My resistance to Honkai is far worse than you can imagine—even though I escaped the Honkai range of Changkong City in advance, I was still corroded by it."

"Ah? And then what? Was it fate that saved you?"

Even though the image of destiny as "great, glorious and correct" has collapsed in Anna's heart, it is still mostly positive overall, so she naturally thinks in this direction.

"Haha, how could that be? Of course I saved myself..."

Lin Wei sneered, then changed the subject and asked,

"By the way, do you know Fu Hua?"

"Uh?"

This sudden change of subject made Anna stunned again. After thinking hard for a while, she said uncertainly,

"I seem to have heard of this name...but I don't have any impression of it."

"That's it, I understand."

Lin Wei nodded in understanding and brought the topic back to the topic.
