Back to the Future 1999: Raining at the Same Time

For a moment, the suffocating darkness strangled everyone's throat, the breath of death licked people's spines, and some timid investigators were so scared that they squatted down with their heads in their hands.

"Everyone, don't panic! Activate mystical magic to illuminate the field of vision!"

As expected of a captain, he was the first to calm down and issue the correct instructions.

But...

"Whoever dares to light the lamp, I don't mind helping him in the King of Hell, turn off the lamp~"

Another slimy tentacle flew past, licking the ear of a small female investigator and cutting off the tip of her staff that had just been condensing mystical magic.

"what!"

The darkness came again accompanied by screams, but this time no one dared to move.

"Hmm, it's a bit quiet~ Where's the struggling? Where's the screaming? Where's the show and revelry I want?!"

As the words fell, rustling sounds began to sound around everyone, like the sound of a small rodent gnawing on something, appearing like a spell, further increasing the fear in people's hearts.

at last……

“Ah! Ah, ah!”

Screams began to be heard, and people continued to fall into the sticky liquid.

"Master, I have followed your instructions and transformed the sharp teeth below into an incarnation to create fear."

"Nothing disabled, was it?"

"No, at most we only left some wounds on their muscles, but no damage to their bones."

"That's good."

……

Sitting on the roof of the house next door, Chen Xi swung his legs back and forth in the air. He smiled as he watched the farce he had directed below, and then jumped.

"Could you please stop trying to jump off a building? It's exhausting to be held back by the wind!"

"I still have you."

Dancing with the knife in the air, rubbing his little head.

"It's because of you that I dare to do this. It's all thanks to you~"

"Humph, it's good to know!"

Hahahaha, a little bit tsundere, just control yourself.

After comforting the baby in his arms, Chen Xi landed safely.

However, the world below was already in chaos. From their perspective, compatriots kept falling down around them, and groans and screams were heard everywhere.

The vision that I usually rely on the most is completely taken away, leaving only a numb body and brain waiting in a world with only screams, waiting to see if I will be the next lucky person to be visited by the god of death.

Razor was still trying his best to comfort everyone, but to little avail.

"Everyone, calm down! Stay where you are! Protect your injured companions. Running around will only trample on those who are already injured!"

This was indeed the case, but the crowd was in complete chaos and could not hear any instructions at all.

In the world they perceive, there are only screams, death, and the sticky liquid they touch after falling to the ground.

"Master, I have released a chaotic and terrifying dream as you instructed. No one will notice you now."

You Meng also emerged from the darkness, holding an empty bucket that was slowly dripping with some liquid.

Nodding with satisfaction, Chen Xi touched Anma, who was constantly activating his abilities beside him. From the moment darkness fell, he asked Anma to put a shield on everyone to prevent them from suffering any irreversible damage.

After all, it's just for fun. If someone really dies, the fun will be really over.

"Okay, let's go."

Following Chen Xi, he came to Veldin and patted her shoulder.

"Chen Xi!"

"Shhh."

He quickly covered Veldin's mouth and signaled her to speak more quietly.

"Is it fun?"

"Uh-huh!"

Even in the darkness, Chen Xi seemed to be able to see little stars twinkling in Veldin's eyes.

"I have something more interesting here, do you want to try it?"

"What is it?"

"Let Sister Anya go back to the Foundation with you."

"?!"

"Don't worry. I'll let Youmeng follow you. He'll distort other people's perceptions so that when you two stand together, they'll only see one of you."

"How about playing a little game of True and False Si Chen every now and then to entertain those old fogies at the Foundation?"

"But, is it really okay?"

It’s not that Verdin thought this was bad fun, but he was a little worried that Sister Anya would be in danger if she followed him to the foundation.

"it's okay no problem."

Push Anya out and place her next to Veldin.

"Look! Exactly the same!"

"Chen Xi!"

Although she didn't know what Chen Xi was going to do, Anya had a vague feeling that what he was going to do was more than just having fun.

Gently touching Anya's lips, Chen Xi stopped her from saying anything else.

The two of them were already too familiar with each other, and Chen Xi was afraid that if she opened her mouth, he would change his mind.

Putting the sharp tooth necklace on Anya's neck, Chen Xi said:

"Sharp Teeth, you must protect them this time!"

"Yes!"

In the darkness, Anya's eyes were bright, staring straight at Chen Xi, but Chen Xi avoided looking at her directly.

With a wave of his hand, Daowu and Anma were transformed into their original forms, and they were put together in Anya's hand.

"Take it with you, so you can look after me."

"Chen..."

Finally, Chen Xi slapped a card into Anya's hand:

"If anything really happens, just go inside and hide. I'll ask you to take care of the lead glass, Lovell, and Nana inside."

"Chen Xi!"

I don’t know what happened, but Chen Xi’s behavior, as if he was making arrangements for his last wishes, was definitely wrong.

"What happened? Tell me, we'll face it together, together. Don't do this!"

However, as if he didn't hear Anya's words, Chen Xi pushed her away and disappeared into the darkness.

"The veil."

"Chen Xi!"

However, the curtain had been removed, and the expected figure was no longer visible in the darkness.

"Huh?! I'm fine, I'm actually fine!"

When their vision returned, everyone was surprised to find that they were fine, with only minor injuries, and the "blood" they had touched before was just a fake substitute.

Although doubtful, the result was good. At least no one was injured and Si Chen was safe... Miss Si Chen? !

Razor turned around suddenly and found that Miss Si Chen was still standing there safely. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, he noticed that Si Chen, who was usually known for her calmness, was standing there blankly, staring at one place.

"Relax, Miss Si Chen, the crisis is over. Even though the Hand of Reshaping escaped, the fact that everyone is safe is a victory!"

Thinking that Si Chen was still immersed in the fear of the darkness, Razor comforted her with a hearty smile, and at the same time he was glad that this poor Miss Si Chen still retained some of the appearance she should have at this age.

"Yes, yes, he ran away. He ran away again."

Responding blankly, Verdin seemed to be back in that rainy night, his eyes gradually becoming empty.

And in her eyes, Anya's crazy figure was reflected.

Youmeng's cognitive distortion has taken effect. Sounds, movements, everything are erased from the cognition of everyone except Veldin.

"Where on earth did Chen Xi go?"

Grabbing Youmeng's collar, Anya questioned her madly.

"Calm down, Miss Anya. The master will be fine. Your mission now is to follow Miss Verdin to the foundation."

"Tell me! Tell me! You must know, don't try to play dumb!"

Helplessly holding Anya's hands, Youmeng sighed, and just as Anya showed a happy expression, she spoke:

"My master and I have an agreement that I cannot tell you. When everything is settled, my master will tell you."

"Please trust the master, he will be fine."

"Hehe, believe him?"

Anya sneered through her tears.

"Then why doesn't he want to believe me? He doesn't even want to tell me what to do!"

Pulling Anya's hand off, Youmeng showed a defiant look towards them for the first time.

"No one can do anything about that except the master."

"Let's go, please trust the master."

Helped up by Youmeng, Anya followed the foundation like a zombie, and the light in her eyes had also disappeared.
