“Let’s go.”
Fang Qi said softly.
Liguang gently took his hand, and together they…
stepped into the crumbling building!
The stairwell was dim.
Pebbles and rusted rebar ends littered the ground.
The air was thick with the smell of dust and rust.
They followed the trail of bloody footprints.
The blood was intermittent, leading them to a triangular area beneath the stairs.
In the corner…
Fang Qi finally saw them.
Xiaoqing.
And Lin Xiaoyou.
Xiaoqing sat on the ground, her hair disheveled.
She held Lin Xiaoyou, cradling her head tightly in her arms.
Lin Xiaoyou was covered in blood.
But the blood on her face had been wiped clean.
Those eyes, usually curved like crescent moons, were now tightly shut.
Her round little face had completely lost its color, leaving only a ghastly pallor.
Yet, at the corners of her mouth, there was still the faintest trace of a smile?
Mm…
That was the last smile she left for Xiaoqing.
Xiaoqing hung her head low, her dark gray hoodie drenched in blood.
Lin Xiaoyou’s blood.
And her hands were clenched tightly around Lin Xiaoyou’s pink coat.
The two of them remained motionless.
Fang Qi’s gaze trembled slightly.
He walked over to them, crouching down gently.
“Xiaoqing?”
No response.
Xiaoqing kept her head down, her bangs covering most of her face, hiding her expression.
Her eyes were open, fixed on Lin Xiaoyou, but her pupils were completely vacant.
No reaction at all.
“Master.”
Liguang tightened her grip on Fang Qi’s hand, her voice very soft.
“She has already entered… a deep sleep information protection mode.”
“In this mode…”
She lowered her eyelashes gently.
“Only her Master can wake her.”
“Forcing her awake…”
Liguang clutched Fang Qi’s hand harder.
“Would only cause core overload, leading to data corruption, or even… irreversible physical damage.”
Fang Qi looked at Xiaoqing and was silent for a long time.
So that’s how it is…
Only her Master can wake her, huh…
Makes sense.
He had said that if Xiaoqing just went to sleep, she would see her Master again when she opened her eyes.
So she really did “go to sleep.”
No more screaming or breaking down.
Just holding Lin Xiaoyou like this, shutting off all perception of the outside world.
But…
She must have known.
That Lin Xiaoyou in her arms was truly dead.
She probably didn’t believe Fang Qi’s words.
She didn’t have those cross-cycle memories.
She didn’t know Fang Qi could rewind time.
She didn’t know her Master had died several times before and been brought back by him.
But she still did it.
Was this her way of…
Holding onto the last shred of hope?
She sank herself into the darkness along with Lin Xiaoyou.
She hoped that one day, her Master would wake her up, or perhaps…
She would lie here forever with her Master.
“…Don’t worry.”
Fang Qi looked at the two girls trapped in their “slumber” and spoke softly.
“I’ll make sure you both wake up together.”
Then he stood up and raised his head…
“Liguang…”
He looked at the crumbling stairs before him.
“Let’s give it one last try.”
He felt incredibly calm at that moment.
Truly calm.
“These stairs that took Lin Xiaoyou’s life… will they…”
He took a deep breath…
“Take our lives too?”
Liguang gripped his hand.
“Alright.”
Together, they climbed the dilapidated stairs upward.
Derelict.
A true collapsing building.
Every step was precarious.
The concrete surface was cracked.
Exposed rebar snapped off, jutting out viciously!
Rusty wire mesh hung on the walls, swaying with a faint clatter in the wind!
Stones and debris fell with each step, clattering onto the ground below.
“Patta patta…”
One section of stairs had even collapsed halfway, leaving only a narrow edge passable.
Fang Qi squeezed sideways, his back pressed against the rough concrete wall.
Below him was a sheer drop several stories high.
He glanced down…
Damn, that’s high.
Pebbles rolled off the edge…
It took a few seconds for them to hit the ground!
Liguang walked ahead of him.
Her crimson eyes swept rapidly across the stress points of each step!
Occasionally, she reached back to steady him.
Whenever his footing slipped, she would grab his wrist and pull him up with precision!
Mm.
Having his wife by his side gave him a real sense of security.
Floor after floor, they climbed through the ruined stairwell.
A dozen stories, no small feat.
Fang Qi could feel his breathing growing heavier, his legs aching.
But he didn’t stop.
“Master, watch your step.”
Liguang’s crimson eyes continued to flicker steadily.
…
…
Finally, they reached the top floor of the unfinished building.
Wind swept across the rooftop, carrying the smell of dust and rust.
Fang Qi stood at the edge, looking out over the desolate outskirts.
In the distance, the city skyline shimmered in the afternoon sun, its high-rises glowing a pale gray.
Nearby, stretches of barren land overgrown with weeds.
Abandoned building materials piled by the roadside, and a few other unfinished structures stood isolated around them.
Fang Qi gazed into the void below…
“Heh…”
He suddenly laughed.
“Haha…!”
“Well, well…”
He looked at the scenery before him, laughing joyfully!
I came climbing a dangerously crumbling building…
And it still didn’t kill me?
Fate…
I gave you the chance, and you wasted it!
“Fate just isn’t good enough!”
He turned to the silver-haired girl beside him with a grin.
“See, Liguang? What fucking fate…”
“It can’t take my life at all!”
“My life…”
He lifted his hand and gently pinched Liguang’s cute little nose.
“Has always belonged only to you!”
“Xiaoguang.”
He smiled.
Liguang’s pupils contracted sharply!
Her crimson eyes flashed instantly!
Half of her delicate face flushed a deep red!
Her lips trembled…
And then she buried her face hard into Fang Qi’s chest!
But he saw it.
The corner of her lips, already curling upward!
A sick yet blissful curve!
“That’s right…”
Her voice was muffled against his chest.
“Aqi…”
“Your life belongs only to me…!”
The tremor she couldn’t suppress filled her voice.
Fang Qi held her close, feeling the warmth trembling slightly in his arms.
The wind, thick with dust and rust, still brushed past them.
Looking down at the dizzying height below…
He suddenly remembered something.
“Liguang.”
He raised a hand and gently tugged at her tied-up hair bun.
“You know, the first time I gave my life to you…”
He winked at her.
“It was just like this.”
“High altitude—falling!”
Liguang’s body quivered slightly.
Fang Qi reflected on the memory.
He even… felt a faint nostalgia for it!
That was his first time!
The first time he actively sought death!
That time, he leaped off a cliff!
His head hit the reef, and in the moment before death, he saw everything she had done for him in the end.
It was the first time he made her remember everything from that cycle.
The first time… he handed his life over to her.
Fang Qi lowered his head, his lips close to her earlobe.
The little star she once kept hidden in a shell swayed slightly.
“This time…”
He whispered softly.
“Does Liguang want to… join me?”
The silver-haired girl trembled!
She immediately lifted her head from his chest!
Crimson pupils flashed!
Amber pupils trembled!
The curve of her lips could no longer be suppressed—
A slightly twisted smile of happiness!
This really was...
That familiar, reassuring smile!
Fang Qi was smiling too!
He looked at her.
Watched her raise a hand and tear loose the bun at the back of her head!
Silver hair unraveled in the wind!
"...Yes, I want to!"
......
......
Taxi driver Lao Hu hadn’t actually gone far.
He felt something was wrong.
That guy, bringing a girl who was unrealistically beautiful to a place like this...
No matter how he looked at it, it was suspicious!
He remembered this unfinished building!
A few years ago, the news had reported that it was involved in some human trafficking case!
It had been abandoned ever since, with no one taking care of it.
Suspicious—too suspicious!
He parked the car by the roadside a few hundred meters away, pulled out his phone, hesitated for a second, then pressed the number for the police!
"Hello, is this the police? I’m a taxi driver. I just picked up two passengers..."
Speaking quickly, he recounted everything.
A suspicious man, bringing a gorgeous, rebellious girl to this dangerous building linked to human trafficking.
It felt really off!
He described the silver hair as "dyed like some rebellious punk white," and the mismatched pupils as "wearing colored contacts"—in short, Fang Qi didn’t look like a good person!
Corrupting a teenage girl!
Maybe even a trafficker!
The police officer on the other end said they’d send someone to check it out right away.
Lao Hu hung up, didn’t dare leave, and just sat in his car waiting.
Before long, the sound of sirens rang out.
A police car stopped in front of the abandoned building. Several officers got out.
Among them was a female officer.
She looked quite young, sharp and pretty, but her complexion was inexplicably terrible.
Lao Hu hurried over!
"Officers, it’s here! That man brought that girl..."
Suddenly, another young officer beside him gasped.
"Look! The rooftop!!!"
Everyone looked up instantly!
On the rooftop of the distant dangerous building, two figures stood at the very edge.
The next second, they leaped together!
Even from far away, the silver hair could be seen streaming upside down in the air—
Like a waterfall flowing in reverse!
Two figures, falling side by side!
Lao Hu’s words choked in his throat. His mouth hung open, unable to form a single word.
The young officer froze for a moment...
Then, instinctively, he took off running!
He charged forward!
But the female officer stood still.
She stared blankly at the two falling figures.
In her light brown eyes, that flying streak of silver-white reflected.
The wind lifted the stray strands of hair on her forehead, revealing her reddened eyes.
Then...
She closed her eyes.
A tired smile curled at the corners of her lips.
"Thank you..."
......
[Ending??: Trial of Fate]
You climbed the dangerous building, steps crumbling beneath your feet.
You stood at the rooftop, arms wide open, but fate did not come.
So, you smiled.
You told her that your life belonged only to her.
She tore loose her bun, silver hair spreading in the wind.
You leaped together.
You two were truly, already long accustomed to this ritual.
Core fragments and blood intertwined...
All things returned to zero, starting over.
You proved you were a variable.
You got the answer you wanted.
But she died.
She died too.
In the rubble, she held her, sinking into an endless darkness.
Can you really save them?
Does it even mean anything?
BAD ENDING
