Chapter 248
Chapter 248
The sky was overcast. It was the rainy season, and there would be showers from time to time.
The sound of thunder came from afar, and the dull roar exploded in their ears!
"Huh?" Xiangyi was stunned, as if she couldn't believe it. After a long time, she came back to her senses. "Brother … you mean, that person's appearance is not a coincidence?"
"Behind all coincidences, there is a certainty. According to the rules of the 'system' that you said, only souls on the verge of death can be selected. Then, you actually don't fit this rule. Because your injuries are not that serious. "
A year ago, Xiangyi was in a car accident and fainted on the spot. However, she woke up in just a few hours and only suffered some external injuries.
Xiangyi frowned. She tried to keep up with her second brother's rhythm. "In other words, I might not be the one selected to travel between worlds …"
"That's right. Maybe you just unconsciously became someone's scapegoat. Think about it carefully. Not all the worlds you go to are safe, right? Physical injuries are small, but if your soul is wiped out, you will disappear forever. "
"This logic is not difficult to deduce. If it's just a trip around the world, then traveling between worlds is the reward. However, if it's a life-threatening mission, then no one will be willing to accept it. "
A gust of wind blew, and Xiangyi suddenly felt a little cold.
Xiang Li paused. He was silent for a few seconds, took off his coat, and put it on his sister's shoulders.
"This is just my analysis. It can't be proven false. Just listen to me."
The girl's eyes fell on her brother's right hand, and her breath stopped.
If it was really as her brother speculated, that person might take over her body again …
What if her brother was hurt again?!
She felt a light pat on her back, and her brother's gentle voice rang in her ears. "Don't hold your breath. What if you hurt yourself?"
Xiangyi felt a little choked up. He remembered all her little habits …
"Brother, let's exchange a secret signal. If one day, I can't answer, don't believe anything that 'I' say, and don't make any sacrifices for 'me'. "
Xiangyi tried hard to squeeze out a smile, but it was uglier than crying.
The family that she valued the most had been trampled on so wantonly …
It was also very likely that it was not an accident.
It was a conspiracy.
"If you can't laugh, then don't laugh." Xiang Li pinched his cheek and pondered for a few seconds. "You want to cry for a while? Don't worry, I have time. You can cry all you want. "
He was really and seriously comforting her.
"How about you cry for five minutes first?"
"…"
"Shall I make a watch for you?"
"…"
Xiangyi was amused by him. As she laughed, her eyes turned red. "Brother, you're still the same as before … you don't know how to coax people."
"Then let's set our secret code. Five minutes?"
"Alright."
Xiangyi inexplicably felt a lot more at ease after the brother and sister talked things out.
It was as if he had been floating in the void for a long time and had finally found a foothold.
Steady and steady, supporting her. She would never have to worry about not having a way out.
"By the way, how did you find out that something was wrong?" Xiangyi thought of the contract that her brother forced 'that person' to sign. It was very detailed. Although it was childish, it restrained 'that person' from doing whatever she wanted.
To put it simply, it was okay to do small things, but there was no room for discussion for big things.
Xiang Li shook his head. "I'm not sure, but something bad must have happened …"
