Strange Cards

Chapter 454 I'm sorry

After Qi Wu received the strange token, Gu Nian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and slumped softly into the chair.

"Little New Year".

"Are you alright?"

Qi Wu looked at Gu Nian, who casually waved his hand and said.

"I'm fine."

"Your sister has almost finished making dinner. You should go home now."

"I'll come over after resting for a while."

Qi Wu nodded, put away the design drawings of the two belts, took a deep look at Gu Nian, and spoke.

"Little New Year".

"Are we all going to die?"

"..."

"If we don't give it our all one last time, everyone will die."

Gu Nian looked at Qi Wu and slowly sat up straight.

"The appearance of the first Calamity, Pomp, already foreshadowed that all Calamities possess the power to destroy a planet with their bare hands, because the power possessed by each Calamity is all at the conceptual level."

"And the power that I, Shigure, and the Joker possess is even more terrifying; it can be considered as power that has been stolen from the underlying code that runs the world."

"The three of us each possess one of the most fundamental powers in the world. The Joker in my hand controls destiny, while the other Joker possesses the terrifying ability to alter the world."

"The power that Shigure developed is specifically designed to counter the Joker; it's a power called nullification."

"It can render everything ineffective and is the most crucial force for saving the world."

"We can only be firewood, burning ourselves out as fuel to save the world."

"Death is inescapable. Not only you and me, but even Shigure, who possesses the power of nullification, cannot escape it."

"As for the warmth provided by the campfire..."

Let the people we love enjoy it.

Gu Nian noticed that Qi Wu was staring intently into his eyes. After a short while, Qi Wu seemed to have confirmed something before he smiled and said...

"Thanks, Xiao Nian."

"I suddenly realized that death isn't so scary after all."

"I'm going back now. Come back for dinner soon."

Gu Nian stared in the direction Qi Wu had left until Qi Wu had completely disappeared from his sight before murmuring something.

"I'm sorry, brother-in-law."

"The feeling of knowing in advance that you will die, and even knowing when you will die."

"It probably won't feel that good, will it?"

"However, we both feel the same way about this."

"..."

"sorry."

……

Shi Yu looked at Bei Hai, who had escorted her out of the police station, and stretched her wrists slightly.

"Captain Beihai, you should be close to becoming a bureau chief by now."

"I haven't been back to Nanhai City for several years, how come the public security here has become so bad?"

"You're not the kind of troublemaker."

As Shigure spoke, he casually opened the black hole, walked halfway inside, and then turned to face Hokkaido.

"I may never be in the South China Sea, but my informants can always keep an eye on it."

"Xiao Jiu is fine, everyone is happy."

"If that girl calls me one day and says she's been bullied."

"That's not something that can be solved by a few deaths."

As Shi Yu spoke, she walked into the black hole, and the black hole closed the moment Shi Yu entered it.

Beihai stared at the direction Shiyu had gone for a while, then rubbed his temples, which gave him a headache. He lit a cigarette, turned around, and walked into the police station.

When Shi Yu returned home, she saw Liu Yu wearing an apron standing in front of the stove, slowly tasting and adding salt with a small spoon.

"Xiao Jiu?"

It seemed that Liu Yu was taking it too seriously. Shi Yu was startled when she suddenly spoke, and the salt shaker in her hand suddenly slipped and fell straight into the stewed beef brisket.

Just as the salt shaker was about to fall into the tomato, potato, and beef stew, Shiyu activated time stop in time.

"Zawarudo!"

After activating Shigure, Shigure calmly picked up the salt shaker, swept all the salt grains that had been frozen in the air back, and then put the salt shaker back in its original place.

Looking at Liu Yu, who was still in the same position, Shi Yu scratched his head and said.

"I use the time-stopping technique in this area."

"If A finds out, he'll probably scold me."

The moment Shiyu finished speaking, five strange straight lines of spades flew in through the window, completely ignoring the world where time had stopped and entering Shiyu's body.

"Now I know, you're going to get cricketed by me tonight."

Shiyu took out the Ace of Spades and spoke.

"You're back?"

"How come it's so fast?"

The Ace of Spades slowly lit up, and then said...

"I couldn't find it, so I went to look in other places too."

"All traces of the natural disaster have disappeared; it seems to have been deliberately hidden."

"I see."

"It's alright, thanks old friend."

A gave a soft hum and pointed his ghostly finger at Liu Yudao, who was still in a time-stopped state.

"If you don't cancel the time stop soon, that little girl will become the winner of the Best Action Award."

"Time has stopped for one and a half minutes now."

Only then did Shigure realize what was happening and quickly canceled the time stop.

At this moment, Liu Yu looked at Shi Yu who had appeared beside her, and her body trembled violently.

Just moments ago, Shigure's voice was still behind him, but the next moment Shigure suddenly appeared beside him.

"Brother Shiyu?"

"What's wrong with you?"

Liu Yu spoke, then suddenly realized that the salt shaker in her hand was gone.

Seeing Liu Yu searching around, Shi Yu pointed to the salt jar placed in the salt jar position.

"You were immediately frightened when I opened my mouth."

"If I hadn't activated time stop quickly, this pot of tomato, potato, and beef stew would have killed a salt seller today."

Shi Yu said, taking a spoon, tasting the flavor, and then giving a thumbs up.

"Not bad, Xiao Jiu."

"The food tastes so good."

Liu Yu nodded proudly. Shi Yu had no doubt that if Liu Yu had a tail, it would be wagging wildly right now.

Just like the white rain back then.

Shi Yu took off Liu Yu's apron, put it on herself, and then pushed Liu Yu out of the kitchen.

"Then go take a shower now, and hurry up."

"I'll cook the rest of the food, and we can eat it right away after I take a shower."

Liu Yu tilted her head back and spoke.

"Is it too late?"

"Girls take a long time to take a bath."

"There's still time."

"I'll simmer the two soups a little longer."

"Go quickly."

Liu Yu nodded and walked briskly up to the second floor.

Then, watching Shigure washing vegetables in the kitchen, A created a body exactly like Shigure's and leaned against the refrigerator.

"You're starting to look like a good family man."

"If I hadn't been following you around, who would have thought that the modern-day Shura was also a good man who could cook?"

Shi Yu carefully processed the prawns in her hands, squeezing out the prawn brains and removing the prawn veins before speaking.

"I don't care what I do."

All I want right now is for Xiao Jiu to be happy.

P.S.: I'm late, everyone.
