The Collapse Begins in Changkong City

"What's going on? Why are things that shouldn't be here appearing? Can this man change things? Then why is there a marriage line on my body?"

"Miss Aponia, Miss Aponia, can you hear me?" Wang Tang waved her hand in front of Aponia.

"What's wrong, Mr. Wang Tang? Is there something you need?"

"No, no, I just noticed you were spacing out, Miss Aponia, so I called out to you."

"Mr. Wang, there's no need for you to keep calling me 'Miss'. Just call me by my name."

Wang Tang tentatively called out, "Na Aponia."

"Hmm, that sounds a bit better!"

Pado, standing to the side, took in the whole scene. This... this is too fast! They've already been all lovey-dovey for only 5 minutes. Pado can't even imagine what would happen if they were left alone together.

The more you try to prevent something from happening, the more likely it is to happen. The next second, Aponia looked at Wang Tang with the kind expression she usually only showed when she was praying and said softly, "Mr. Wang Tang, may I say something further?"

"Okay..." Wang Tang had barely uttered an "okay" when Pado covered her mouth. Wang Tang asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's wrong, Pado?"

Pado quickly shook her head, knowing she had acted impulsively this time. Seeing that Pado didn't have any Wang Tang, Wang Tang turned to Aponia: "Of course you can."

"Then please come with me, Mr. Wang Tang."

Aponia then led the two to a room and turned to look at Wang Tang.

"I understand. Pado, wait for me at the door for a few minutes."

Pado felt a little wronged and at a loss after hearing this. Was she not going to play with me anymore? Just as Pado was still lost in thought, Wang Tang patted her head.

"Okay, Patho, I just have something to talk to Aponia about, it'll be quick."

Pado nodded somewhat reluctantly, watching quietly as Aponia led Wang Tang into the room.

...............

Upon entering the room, Wang Tang found it to be a very simple room with virtually no decorations. But that made sense, given that this was Twilight Street; a simple room was already quite nice.

Aponia entered the room and sat calmly on the bed. "Please sit down, Mr. Wang Tang."

Upon hearing this, Wang Tang slowly sat down. Somewhat puzzled, she asked, "Is this Aponia's room?"

"Yes... this is indeed my room."

Wang Tang was completely dumbfounded after hearing Aponia's affirmative answer. "Did I just walk into someone else's boudoir?"

"Mr. Wang, I have some questions I'd like to ask you. Could you answer them for me?"

Wang Tang looked at Aponia with a mocking expression and said, "Tell me what you want to say, and I'll give you an answer depending on my mood."

"Who are you? Do you know me?"

"What does this mean?" Aponia could only rephrase her question when she saw that Wang Tang did not understand.

“I can see that you have countless lines of fate, big and small, but I can only see a small part of them. The vast majority of the lines of fate seem to not exist in this world.”

"So what can you see in me?"

Aponia shook her head. "I can see some vague figures in you."

Wang Tang frowned and asked疑惑地问道, "Wh...what figures?" Aponia's words nearly made Wang Tang's CPU overheat. "Can you describe their general characteristics?"

"Okay, I'll give it a try." After hearing her agreement, Wang Tang sat calmly on the bed and waited for the result.

A few minutes later

"I don't know why, but I can barely make out their faces." Wang Tang was a little disappointed by Aponia's answer, but then an idea suddenly popped into his head.

"Aponia, can you tell the color of their hair from my clothes?"

"Yes, of course I can do that."

"They are: red, yellow, and two silver-white ones, that's all."

"Why these colors? And who do these hair colors represent?" Wang Tang began to ponder who these colors might represent.

"By the way, Aponia, when you look at them, can you roughly estimate their height?"

Upon hearing this strange question, Aponia nodded. "The yellow man is about 165 centimeters tall, while the others are probably between 168 and 175 centimeters."

[Wang Tang: "??????"]

"Why does it feel so familiar? The blond guy is 165cm tall. The more I think about it, the more likely it is to be Kong. Following this logic, the other people could be the Captain, Qiong, and Zhe."

Aponia looked at Wang Tang's somewhat strange expression and asked curiously, "Mr. Wang Tang, what are you thinking about?"

"Hey, I think I know who those people you saw were."

"Hmm, who are they?"

Why are you so curious about this?

"I don't know why, but I feel like those people are a part of you."

"Alright, alright, let's change the subject. We won't get any results even if we discuss this all day."

Aponia originally wanted to continue asking this question, but after hearing Wang Tang suggest changing the subject, she suppressed her curiosity and asked, "So, are you lusting after my body?"

Hearing this, Wang Tang was completely dumbfounded. "No way, you could even tell that?" Holy crap, Aponia's precognition... that's too overpowered! She can even tell that I'm lusting after her?

"I can't see your future, I only see a marriage line connecting you to me."

"The marriage line???"

"Yes, although I don't know why this thing appears, I can see that people who can see the marriage line are basically destined to be together."

After thinking for a while, Wang Tang sincerely asked, "What do you think now? If you don't want to, I will try to stay away from you, so that our marriage will be over."

Aponia's eyes suddenly widened. "Mr. Wang Tang, I originally thought you would take advantage of our marriage to do something to me, but I never expected you to have such thoughts."

Wang Tang waved her hand and said, "You can't believe in fate. After all, it's not like we're destined to be together, right?"

"I didn't expect that I wasn't as insightful about this as Mr. Wang Tang."

"Do you have any other questions...? If not, let's go out."

Aponia shook her head to indicate that she had no more problems.

The two stood up and walked towards the door.

………………

Pado pressed her ear against the door to eavesdrop on Wang Tang and Aponia's conversation, but the door was so sturdy that Pado heard nothing.

"Oh dear, what are they talking about? I'm so anxious!"
