from the past to the future

Ling Ya never expected to see IV again.

He thought IV had died at that time, and he also wore the bracelet that Li Xu brought back from the orphanage as a souvenir, and they went on a trip together.He never expected that a ghost would be thrown out of the bracelet because of an impact.This is even more unreliable than the fact that he is Balian, not to mention that the object is still that IV.

"Ling... teeth?"

The translucent shadow floating in the air was obviously stunned when he saw Ling Ya, he seemed to have just woken up from a long dream, and he still couldn't tell the difference between reality and dream, he felt His body was extremely light, as if he had lost weight, which made him feel like he was not consciously living in reality.Then, is this god Ling Ya who appeared in front of him also a part of his dream?

"IV?"

"Ling Ya, what's going on? Why did I become like this?" IV feels that his current state is not so much a weight loss, but rather an excessive lightness!It's completely in a state of buoyancy, okay?

"...Don't you know the reason, IV."

"Huh? If I know, do I still need to ask you? Now I can only ask you, Ling Ya, can you explain?"

"I do not know either……"

In Ling Ya's cognition, IV had already died ten years ago, but the IV that appeared in front of him now has the appearance of him when he was still 17 years old. Through talking with him, Ling Ya found that this IV is Even the memory is only until the age of 17.The last memory fragment is the last battle between Yuma and Astral, and then the resurrection of the Seven Emperors. After that, the memory is gone. It seems that I just woke up after sleeping and found myself inexplicably time-traveled.

Ling Ya can't judge whether this IV is lying, and of course he doesn't think that IV's sloppy tone of keeping secrets can be concealed for long, but if he really doesn't know about it, then why he was sealed in the form of a soul? In this bracelet there is no way of knowing.Temporarily placing an IV, Ling Ya hurriedly called back to Japan, asking Li Xu and Drube to find Toron, he was the only one he could rely on in this situation.However, when the two of them rushed to Tolon's residence, there was no one there. After careful inquiry, they found out that the owner had moved out ten years ago.

Thinking about how he had neglected Tolón in the past ten years, Ling Ya felt very regretful, but now, facing this young IV, he had to overthrow everything he had been with him in the past and start over again, he didn't want to. Knowing what attitude to treat him with is better.Because in this IV's memory, they are just ordinary... they can't even be called friends, Ling Ya thinks so.Although there was a breakthrough in their relationship later on, that was later and had little to do with IV at 17.

Ling Ya looked at the bracelet on his right wrist. IV's soul was resting inside. Ling Ya had just told him about the current world, including the fact that he himself had died. A huge shock to IV, if it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that it would have to collapse, but IV just remained silent for a long time, expressing that he needed to be alone, and returned to the bracelet.

I don't know what kind of environment is inside the bracelet, Ling Ya doesn't want to ask for the time being until IV's emotions are relieved.And IV staying in the bracelet actually facilitates Ling Ya's actions, because he is still not sure whether the IV in this posture will be seen by anyone other than him, if it brings great obstacles to his action, That would be very nerve-wracking.

In fact, it shouldn't be such a troublesome thing, the big deal is to just find someone passing by to experiment, but the two of them wandered around for a few times, but they couldn't even find a robbing gangster.Ling Ya can't experiment with the waiters in the hotel, in case it brings some supernatural rumors to the hotel...it shouldn't have any effect on him?

After simply packing up his luggage, Ling Ya put on his card bag and was about to go out when he saw a transparent shadow dangling from the bracelet. IV was still not used to the feeling of floating in the air, and he couldn't even maintain his balance. So much so that he was in an upside-down posture, and he felt exhausted.

"Where do you want to go, Ling Ya?"

"Alit's ruins, now go and see the situation at the scene."

"Are you planning to attack at night? That place should be a scenic spot. I saw advertisements outside on the road. I feel that such an open-air place should not be too difficult to enter?"

"I'm not going to steal."

"The point is not that, Ling Ya."

Ling Ya looked down at IV's upside-down face, and said with a smile, "If you don't want to go, you can stay."

"...Don't be kidding, I can't stay two meters away from you now."

"Just take off the bracelet." Ling Ya made a gesture to take it off, and IV became anxious, and quickly changed his words, "I'll go, of course I'll go! Anyway, even if there is a monitor, it shouldn't be able to capture me. In the worst case, I'll just Don't show up... just be careful."

"You don't have to worry about me." Ling Ya said, "You'll know if you have a monitor or not."

"That's right." IV folded his arms around his chest, and was silent for a while, looking at Ling Ya who was also standing upside down from his perspective, and asked, "Speaking of which, who is Ariete?"

"..." At that point in time, IV didn't know who Arite was. Ling Ya felt that this was simply a test of his memory.

Ling Ya didn't bother to worry about those small details, so he decided to take it one step at a time. There was still time, so he went to the ruins for a walk first. As for other things, he would think about it after the cards were settled.

The most troublesome thing for IV is that there is no way to get out. After all, the inside of the bracelet is much duller than the outside, and the space inside is not too big. Anyway, IV has no intention of wandering around inside.But there are too many passers-by outside, once he appears, it may cause panic among the surrounding people, so when will he be able to verify whether his current state can be seen by ordinary humans, it is really boring.And it was obvious that neither he nor Ling Ya could telepathically communicate with each other, which created a very big obstacle in the communication between them.

Naturally, Ling Ya didn't know that IV was panicking. Before going out, he put on a hat and a pair of sunglasses. In fact, he didn't need to pretend, but it was also to guard against the surveillance cameras that might be around the ruins. It is best to have a little feature photographed. Although the ruins of Alit is a gladiatorial arena, perhaps those tourists would prefer to see a live gladiatorial match than to visit the scenic spots, but in today's society, Unless it is in an official competition, it is still possible to see this kind of life-threatening gladiatorial fight on the black market, let alone this open-air arena that is conspicuous.

However, this place is also the place of glory of Alit's life, and also the place of his death when he bid farewell to the world.For Alit, this place is of great significance, and the No. card transformed by his best friend has returned to the Starlight Realm together with Astral, and what he delivered to Ling Ya is the Super Hundred No. card, No.105 Burning Boxer, even though it was a card full of false and hateful memories prepared for him by Qian Yuzuo, it was also an important bond for their Seven Emperors.Handing it over to Ling Ya, he couldn't be more relieved.

After returning to the hotel, after hearing Ling Ya's plan, IV suddenly showed a subtle expression that he couldn't understand, and he said, "So why do you need to put the card back, isn't it better to keep it safe?"

"...I thought so too at first, but this card doesn't belong to me after all. Instead of putting it here with me, it's better to put it back where it should be."

"Why do you have to come so far? According to what you said, the person named Arit entrusted the card to you. You can choose to return it to someone close to him?"

"IV, have your words changed a bit?"

"What... isn't it because you are the only one I'm talking to!"

When Ling Ya said this, IV immediately became dissatisfied. After becoming a spirit body, he could not eat or sleep. Although it had no effect on his body at all, the restriction of the bracelet prevented him from being more than two meters away from Ling Ya. , and this also means that when Ling Ya tastes delicious foreign food, he must!stay aside!Open your eyes!watch!But I can't eat it! !Resentment will accumulate unconsciously, and Ling Ya, as IV's only confidant, naturally cannot avoid hearing the other party's complaints often.

"I still want to know why I became like this, why I couldn't find my father."

"Since you passed away... no, to be precise, since the three of you brothers were not by his side, Tolon has been locked away, and even moved when we didn't know. I'm sorry for not taking care of it. he."

"After all this, I can't find my father." IV also had nothing to do about it, and Ling Ya's apology only added to his uneasiness.If the three brothers are really gone as Ling Ya said, then one can imagine how deep the pain the father will go through.However, even worrying about his whereabouts is useless now, Ling Ya has asked Li Xu and the others to find him, and IV just needs to wait for the news.

"Let's not talk about this for now, Ling Ya, tell me about your next move."

"You mean going to the ruins to put the card?"

"Ah, try to do something that can attract my attention now, even if I think about my physical condition, it won't help me at all, it would be more enjoyable to run around in the ruins with you many."

"I told you it's not about stealing things." What kind of strange thing is running around? Ling Ya suppressed the complaints in his heart, and didn't want to think about too many other things. He explained to him tonight based on IV's proposal. "According to my observations this morning, I found that there are a total of three places where cameras are installed."

Ling Ya took out a map bought at a local stall, spread it out and pointed out the location to IV, "One is in the forest to the south, it's hidden among the branches, it's hard to find if you don't look carefully, there are two They are respectively installed on the high platforms on the east and west sides of the ruins, because there are no exhibits themselves, and the two cameras are just for surveillance to prevent someone from destroying the ruins.”

"Looking at it this way, infiltrating is really quite easy." Looking at the map, IV expressed his affirmation to Ling Ya's analysis, then changed the subject and asked an important question, "Although there are not so many monitoring of the ruins, But at any rate, you can still clearly capture the person, Ling Ya, what is your plan? Put on a black suit and hide in the dark night, or use your ability to put it back in an open and aboveboard manner?"

"I won't use my strength casually, IV." Ling Ya shook his head, "Also, I forgot to mention that there will be people patrolling around here. The patrol time is about 15 minutes, and they are quite diligent."

"So that's how it is." Although Ling Ya didn't finish what he said, IV understood what he meant, "It's a good way."

"Then let's rest for a while, and act when it's late at night." Ling Ya yawned sleepily as he said that, he had been huddling around in the crowd all day, and just had to worry about finding the monitor. He has no time to deal with those small traders, and he can't help but realize again that shopping is really a very tiring thing. "How about you sleep for a while, IV."

"No need, I've had enough rest while staying in the bracelet, and I'm sleeping too... Ling Ya?"

The boy was lying on the bed, and fell asleep without even adjusting his sleeping position. He looked really tired. IV faced him speechlessly, and after a while, he floated to the window sill to look at the blazing red sunset gradually setting behind the horizon, unable to look away for a long time.

What he is, he can't get the answer.

Late that night, when Athens was immersed in the tranquility of the night, a figure leaped neatly on the roof, and when passing through the woods, he blocked all the branches and leaves in front of the monitor at a very fast speed.However, the surveillance range of the two monitors in the ruins had a blind spot. Taking advantage of a few minutes of slack when the guards changed shifts, the boy hid behind Juyan's palm and called out the soul in the bracelet.

"Are you ready?"

The soul nodded, just as a footstep moved towards them, he immediately nodded knowingly with the boy, but when the light gradually approached this way, the soul swallowed nervously, and then rushed out in one go , Standing in front of the guard.

The other party didn't notice his existence at all, just shook the flashlight left and right twice, then turned and went to patrol in the other direction.

Not sure whether it was a sigh of relief or a little disappointment, one person and one soul looked at each other silently for a few seconds, and finally gave each other thumbs up in unison.Afterwards, the process of putting the card back was also very easy. The dead angle of the monitor did not reach the top of the palm at all. Ling Ya used the back of his hand to cover his shadow, carefully and quickly put the card on, and quickly retracted it.

Just as he was about to retreat, IV hurriedly stopped Ling Ya, saying that it would be too monotonous to leave like this.Ling Ya had no choice but to emphasize once again that they did not come to steal, and IV insisted on leaving some evidence. Ling Ya couldn't help it. He raised a finger and decorated the monotonous night sky with beautiful flowers. .

That night, the inexplicably rising fireworks woke up the sleeping tourists nearby. Everyone couldn't help but admire the beautiful fireworks. The card in the palm attracted a group of reporters and onlookers.While they were reporting and suspecting this, they did not know that the instigator was silently walking past them, headed for the airport, and headed for China.
