Back to the Future 1999: Raining at the Same Time

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Chen Xi, who was carving something on an animal bone, was startled by the sudden sound and nearly cut his finger by not holding the carving knife firmly.

"Hey, Xiaotao, you scared me to death!"

"Aren't you still alive and well?"

Laughing and patting Chen Xi's back, Tao Xi sat down beside him and looked at him.

"What are you doing?"

But Chen Xi just smiled, said nothing, and continued carving.

"Hello, Chenxi."

"Chen Xi?"

"Chen Xi!!!"

"Please take care of me."

"Hey!"

"Slightly?"

"Don't ignore me!"

He kept changing his posture to harass Chen Xi, but he only had eyes for the sign in his hand. He smiled the whole time without saying a word.

Tao Xi looked at Chen Xi, her cheeks becoming more and more bulging, gradually swelling into a pufferfish.

"Hmph! Just go with your sign! I won't serve you anymore."

Having said that, he turned around and was about to leave, and at this moment.

"Peach."

"what!"

Tao Ding, who had already turned around, stood still, but still did not look back at Chen Xi.

As if to please her, he trotted up to Xiaotao, loosened his grip on the dominoes, and blew away the bone powder on them. Then, a slightly crude peach forest appeared in front of Xiaotao.

"Although I'd like to say it's a birthday present, Tao obviously doesn't have the knowledge or memory for it. So..."

As if deliberately keeping her in suspense, Chen Xi took a deep breath, and when she was about to explode again, he said:

"Xiao Tao, I like you."

The relationship between the two has actually long surpassed that of ordinary lovers, but for Chen Xi, he still wants to have a formal confession so that Xiao Tao can feel his feelings.

"Well, I like you too."

Taking the dominoes, Xiao Tao looked at them curiously, but responded indifferently to Chen Xi's confession.

"Hey, Chenxi, what's the use of this thing?"

Tao Xi was stunned by Xiao Tao's reaction, and her attention was attracted by this novelty, so she didn't notice Chen Xi's actions at all.

He reached out, took a step forward, and gently took Tao Xi into his arms.

Haha, I almost forgot, Xiaotao has this kind of personality.

'Chen Xi' had a helpless yet somewhat relaxed smile on his face, and he silently complained: This... is really distressing.

He closed his eyes, put his mouth close to her ear, and repeated:

"Xiao Tao, I like you."

"Yeah, I know. I like you too, Chenxi."

This time, he responded with an extremely serious tone. Chen Xi, who had heard the clue, had not yet reacted to what was happening when a light kiss landed on his lips.

"Chenxi, I like you!"

The girl's smile was like a peach blossom in full bloom, and her delicate and misty blushing face was imprinted in Chen Xi's mind, becoming the most beautiful scenery here.

He told himself that these were all fake, and whether it was this body or the girl in front of him, they would eventually not escape the fate of dying at the hands of giant beasts and monsters.

But at this moment, looking at that brilliant smile, how could he suppress his heartbeat, forget everything, and forget the pain of the first stage.

At this moment, he just wanted to look at the girl in front of him a little longer and wanted this moment to last longer.

And 'Chen Xi' has the same idea as him: to use his life and everything he has to protect the girl in front of him!

And he did it, he stood in front of Tao Xi.

When the tentacles of the giant creature pierced through the bodies of both of them at the same time, he looked back at his dying moment and was very lucky to see Tao Xi's blood-stained, happy smile, as if to say, it's not bad to die with you.

Heart-wrenching pain came from all directions, Chen Xi's wailing, Chen Xi's unwillingness, and Chen Xi's pain surged up and once again held Chen Xi tightly.

But this time, he smiled gently and reached out to touch that smile:

"Thank you for finding me, Xiaotao."

……

"Xiao Tao!"

Waking up from nothingness, Chen Xi once again appeared in the extremely familiar white room, but he stumbled towards the door, shouting Xiao Tao's name.

But no, there were only three figures in the distance looking at him with questioning eyes.

"Hey, you guys!"

He ran towards those people, the panic and anxiety in his heart almost overwhelmed him.

"Have you seen a girl this tall with pink hair and two buns?"

"No."

The guy with strong muscles laughed heartily.

"Let's not talk about this brother for now. My name is Galen, what's yours?"

Garen put his arm around Chen Xi's shoulders and pulled Chen Xi into his arms.

"Chenxi."

Holding onto Garen's arm, Chen Xi now only wanted to break free from this embrace that was actually a restraint.

"Don't be so anxious. Let's put aside the unimportant things and get to know our new companions first, how about that?"

"How could it be insignificant?"

The roar immediately cooled down the heated atmosphere created by Garen. Breaking free from his restraints, Chen Xi walked away angrily.

However, soon, another tall figure stood in front of him and stretched out his hand towards him:

"clear."

Her voice was just like her, with a hint of coldness.

"Go away!"

Slapping Qing's hand, Chen Xi continued his search.

He kept shouting and running, but the scene around him was the same, like an endless loop, and Tao Xi was nowhere to be seen.

Chen Xi, who finally couldn't hold on any longer, fell down and lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

At this moment, a mischievous girl squatted beside him, blocked the light above his head, and poked his face.

"Hey, my name is Yuzu, what's yours?"

"me……"

Chen Xi was breathing heavily and no longer had the energy to answer her question. But at this moment, a sword suddenly appeared and stabbed into his side.

Is it...

The roar of the giant beast sounded simultaneously, and the whistling wind of fists came closer and closer.

Ding!

He jumped up from the ground almost instinctively, raising his sword to block.

The overwhelming force knocked him away, leaving two deep marks on the ground.

"Hahaha."

With the sword at his side, after this attack, Chen Xi's vision began to blur.

But the giant beast raised its fist again and hit the girl who was still standing there in a daze.

"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

He suddenly threw the sword in his hand and stabbed it into the giant beast's head. Chen Xi quickly rushed to Yuzu's side, picked her up and retreated.

"roll!"

He loosened his grip and dropped the girl, then rushed towards the beast again.

Same as before, same as last time, behemoth, battle, victory or death.

But why am I the only one who survived?!

Where is Xiaotao?

Such doubts lingered in Chen Xi's mind, but he simply didn't have the spare time to think about such things at the moment.

The previous attack had already angered the giant beast, and it was now waving its fists in a disorderly manner. Fortunately, it was not rational, giving Chen Xi the opportunity to dodge back and forth.

But without the sword, he had no way to kill it, and if he didn't kill it, the battle at this stage would not stop!

"Fireball!"

A sudden chant was heard, followed by a violent explosion.

The expanding blasting wind knocked Chen Xi and the giant beast to the ground.

"Didn't I tell you to leave?"

He quickly got up from the ground and rolled over to avoid another punch from the giant beast.

"I...I...I."

"Aim for his eyes, and cover me while I retrieve the sword!"

"Ok!"

The behemoths encountered for the first time are generally not very strong, and they are quickly reduced to ashes by the two of them working together.

'Chen Xi' stood firm with the help of his sword, but the sword suddenly broke. When he was about to fall, he was supported by Youzi behind him.

"caught you!"

Looking at the smiling face in front of him, Chen Xi fainted without hesitation.

……

While wiping the sword, Chen Xi listened to the laughter of three people from afar;

While cleaning the mud from the sword blade, Chen Xi saw them fighting with each other;

After finally swinging the well-maintained sword and putting it into the scabbard, Chen Xi looked at the wounds on their bodies, some deep and some shallow.

……

Poke.

"Are you still alive?"

Another death, another reincarnation, another new body, new experience.

Countless times, countless times...

Ever since he lost Tao Xi in his first death, Chen Xi has always kept a distance from his later companions. He doesn't want that painful memory to appear in his heart again.

Although there were still some people and things that really entered Chen Xi's heart again, it is undeniable that he has become increasingly insensitive to the death of his companions.

This is true for Chenxi and 'Chenxi'.

until……

"Ciallo? If you're still alive, please reply. My name is , what's yours?

It’s lonely being alone. Wake up~”

"Um?! ?"

'Chen Xi' was not fully awake at this time, and could not see anything with his eyes closed. But the moment he heard the name, Chen Xi briefly took over his body again, sat up suddenly, held the hand of the owner of the voice, and looked at her in shock.

Silver shoulder-length hair and eyes of the same color, Veldin?!
