Back to the Future 1999: Raining at the Same Time

While Anya and Snyder were playing, Chen Xi quietly cleared the space under his feet and left the wasteland.

After all, he had to leave. If he said goodbye formally, he probably wouldn't be able to resist even Anma's coquettishness. So, leaving quietly and quietly was the best option.

With a flash of golden light, Chen Xi appeared in a secluded corner of the foundation without attracting anyone's attention.

But... this hysteria really doesn't want to let me go for even a moment.

They had just left the wasteland, and the counterattack from the spirit was so swift that it made Chen Xi want to split his limbs, melt his whole body, and suddenly appear in the foundation with a long trail of bubbling blood to cause chaos.

"Youmeng!"

"I'm here."

In the shadows, You Meng, wearing a dark swallowtail butler's coat, a snow-white shirt and gloves, gradually emerged. With her hands one in front and one behind, she bent her waist slightly, her manners elegant, rigorous and capable.

"Give me the illusion!"

Wave after wave of counterattacks seemed to be revenge for the comfort enjoyed some time ago, and the scenery in front of Chen Xi's eyes kept flickering and hazy.

Soon, a soft light barrier enveloped this small corner, and then quickly merged with the environment, making it impossible to see any clues.

However, within this barrier that isolated him from the outside world, Chen Xi's body was already disintegrating bit by bit, and pieces of it melted and fell to the ground, dragging along sticky and smelly blood plasma.

The white bones that gradually appeared were not completely broken, but were irregularly fractured and turned into flesh and blood slime. Chen Xi, who was constantly pumping out blood, spit them out one by one and inserted them into his body. As he squirmed, they collided with each other and made a rattling sound.

“Ah, ah—! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh—!”

I no longer knew where the sound came from. The sound waves vibrated and bounced off every drop of blood, scribbling them around the body into a beautiful and enchanting painting.

Standing by, watching Cheng Youmeng's entire journey, he couldn't help but reveal an expression of pity. He then merged back into Chen Xi's body and into his spirit.

The master's fluctuations this time were particularly obvious, so even if only Youmeng was there, he could roughly find the node of the problem with his own advantages.

However, this was only a temporary solution, providing only temporary relief. Furthermore, if Chen Xi went berserk again, then… this barrier he had constructed with his own strength would instantly crumble. And he, too, would be drawn into the void of reincarnation.

Finally, Chen Xi, having regained his human form, leaned against the wall and walked out of the illusion barrier constructed by You Meng. Drops of sweat trickled down his trouser legs onto the ground, marking the path he had taken as he moved.

"Thank...thank you, Youmeng."

Chen Xi knew that he had no way to respond now, and he also knew that if he lost control again, "You Meng" would leave him and Chen Xi's home forever.

Leaning against the wall, taking a few breaths and tidying up his appearance, Chen Xi stopped the nearest person and asked where Si Chen was going.

……

Thanks to Youmeng's help, Chenxi gradually got used to his current body. He changed into a new set of clothes, composed his expression, and headed towards where Verdin was.

From a distance, Chen Xi could see the orange puppy loyally surrounding Verdin. Holding several documents, it reported something to her with a mixture of curiosity and seriousness.

Without disturbing them immediately, Chen Xi quietly approached and eavesdropped on their conversation:

"Si Chen, these are the recent field investigation missions assigned by the Foundation. One involves a vampire organization that is gradually emerging, and the other involves a sacred tree that claims to be able to cure all diseases in the world."

"Both of these have been observed by the Foundation, through heavy rains, and are occult events discovered and recorded across multiple eras. The Foundation believes they require significant investigation."

After putting the documents containing the two things at the bottom, Sonnet stared at the last report in his hand, looking a little overwhelmed.

"What's written on it that makes you look like that?"

Fourteen, holding the document, did not move for a long time, so Veldin came to her side and looked at the "notice" that puzzled her with her.

"Si...Si Chen, Tai..."

However, before she could get over her shyness, Verdin beside her had already read out the title written on the file bag word by word:

"Special Proposal and Specific Details Regarding the Establishment of an Independent Department, the Hour Squad?"

Seeing this, Virtin was actually as confused as the sonnet.

Back then, Sister Anna, Quanhuan, Isabella... those figures who were recalled in the rainstorm would appear again and again in his dreams.

How could that arrogant vice president who wanted to keep me in his hands and trample me under his feet suddenly give me and the mystic such great power and freedom?

"I thought, maybe I can be the answer to your doubts?"

A familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, and Verdin suddenly turned around in surprise and hugged his brother whom he had not seen for a long time.

It was not until Chen Xi reminded him with a light cough that Virtin noticed his situation. With a slightly red face, he let go of his hand as Sonnet stared at Chen Xi with shock, loss, resentment, and finally some resentment in his eyes.

"Why did you think of looking for me, Chenxi?"

"Well... I came here because I missed my lovely sister. And I'm doing a little business with the foundation."

"So, this is your achievement?"

"Well, you could say that. You might not know it yet, but your suitcase can carry the occultists safely through the rainstorm. This way, you can also save the friends you've made throughout the ages and bring them along with you."

"And this requires you to have greater power and freedom, so this document is what I fought for you."

After saying these words, Chen Xi seemed even weaker. However, as a reliable brother, he hid this fact well from Verdin. However, he couldn't hide it from Sonnet, an excellent student.

"And now, I have something to entrust to you, which is one of the main reasons why I fought for this document."

The word "entrust" made Veltin feel the different weight of what was going to happen next.

"This is the key to my wasteland. It's a place similar to yours, but my family lives in it."

"I'm having some minor health issues right now and don't have the time to take care of them. I have to find someone I trust enough to entrust them to."

"Wildin, can I trust you?"

Having said that, in fact, Chen Xi had already pressed the key in his hand into Veltin's palm.

"There's a person named Snyder here. She's an ordinary human. Please let her hide in my wasteland when the rainstorm comes. I believe you two will have a good relationship~"

After saying the last sentence, Chen Xi planned to hide and escape into the distance.

He couldn't hold on any longer...

But Verdin quickly grabbed his wrist and asked anxiously:

"Chen Xi...will you come back?"

"Brother...Brother..."

Hearing this name, Chen Xi's eyes lit up. He smiled and touched Weilding's head, saying:

"Of course I do. I can't bear to make my little Verdin sad. We promised to stay with each other forever, didn't we?"

Xiao Wei seemed very happy to get another promise. He slightly pulled down the brim of his hat to cover his fluttering eyebrows and lowered his head to hide his slightly flushed cheeks and the uncontrollable corners of his mouth.

Seeing that the child was almost comforted, Chen Xi turned around and touched Sonnet's little head.

"Yours too. Take good care of Si Chen for me. I will have the foundation appoint you as Velding's first assistant. From now on, you will only stay by Velding's side and be her most important and closest person."

"So, promise me that you will take good care of her, okay?"

After receiving a positive answer, Chen Xi let go of his hand with satisfaction, and gradually faded out of the sight of the two and left.
