Witch Punk 2840

Chapter 280 Destined Death
January 1, the seventh day after the dream began.

Asia Pacific Power chose the safe house for the two of them, which is a two-bedroom apartment located on the 20th floor facing north and south. There are windows on the north side, but there is no tall building over 15 stories within sight; on the south side, toward the city center, there are many tall buildings, but the apartment faces this side only with thick cement walls.

According to "Circuit Breaker", this apartment basically eliminates the possibility of being sniped.

"But is this floor too high? If we are attacked, there will be no place for everyone to run." Dong Zhou suddenly asked.

Xia Ye glanced at her sister in surprise. Dong Zhou didn't seem like someone who cared about such things, but she wasn't sure if Dong Zhou had asked this question at that time. Too many years had passed and she couldn't remember. Every detail.

"Circuit Breaker" showed a "good question" expression: "In the event of an attack, you can retreat from your bedroom to the apartment on the 19th floor."

With that said, she opened the wardrobe in front of Xia Ye and Dong Zhou, grabbed the gap left on the edge of the bottom board, and lifted it up, revealing a hole that was only big enough for one person to pass through, and a staircase at the edge of the hole.

"Our people are arranged in the apartment downstairs. After you go down, they will cover your retreat. In addition, the apartment on the 21st floor is also ours." She pointed to the top of her head. "There are also decorations on the outer wall to the north. With the sensor, if the opponent wants to make a surprise attack by rappelling, we can receive an early warning in advance.

"All in all, under the existing conditions, all security measures have been as thorough as possible. The company does have more secure methods, but those are prepared for higher-level incidents and we have no right to use them..."

Probably to reassure the two of them, "Circuit Breaker" was introduced in detail, but Xia Ye's attention was not on that. She finally remembered - she was the one who asked about how to evacuate in the past, but now, the person who asked this question People have become winter sun.

Could this be seen as a change?
She was not sure. Judging from the experiments of the past few days, some details in the dream could indeed be changed, such as the sentences of the dialogue, but as long as a slightly more critical node, such as choosing A or B, was like being nailed to death, it could not be done at all. Change nothing.

So, from "asking questions and eliciting responses from the other party" to "asking questions in winter and eliciting responses from the other party", is this a key change?
She suddenly sensed something, just above her, vaguely, as if separated by countless layers of barriers. I walked to the balcony on a summer night and looked up. The winter sky was clear and clear, with only a few clouds in the blue sky.

There was no giant head like I thought, and no threads connecting it.

Of course it's impossible. This is 2085, it's Earth, there is no witch, no witch contract, and no witch king.

But Xia Ye was still a little unwilling, and recited in a low voice:

"M—RH-ts-zV"

This is the witch text of "Thunder Feather". The sound dissipated in the air, but the crimson feathers made of lightning did not appear around her.

A voice suddenly came from behind: "That contract is of no use here, sister."

Xia Ye turned around suddenly and found Dong Zhou standing a few steps away.

"City Lord?" she blurted out.

But my sister was just stunned: "Huh?"

The natural expression of surprise was definitely not fake. The two had been together since childhood, and Xia Ye could easily tell them apart.

But she confirmed again: "Were you talking to me just now?"

Dong Zhou's expression became more and more confused: "No, brother, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing... maybe I haven't slept well these past few days and I'm hearing hallucinations." Xia Ye said half-jokingly.

It wasn't an auditory hallucination, she was sure of it.

There seems to be something wrong with this dream, which is a good thing. If everything is normal, then he will only witness the death of his sister again.

What would happen if the outcome of death could really be changed by oneself? When he returns to Debso Tower, the city lord will automatically turn into winter? The winter sun that has never died, and whose personality and memories are exactly the same as before?

——Obviously this is just a guess without any basis, but Xia Ye's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.

Maybe this is the meaning of entering this memory?

The power of the brain is so magical, maybe it can really change the past?
To take a step back, no matter whether the guess is correct or not, you should at least give it a try. What if you succeed?

She took out her phone and glanced at the screen. The time was now 11:05. She remembered that the attack happened at noon, but unfortunately she couldn't remember the exact time...

But fortunately, I still remember the process of the attack. As long as I analyze the situation at the time, I can respond accordingly...

"……Huh?!"

"What's wrong, brother?"

Xia Ye didn't reply, and she was suddenly shocked to find that she couldn't remember the entire attack. She clearly remembered that she remembered it, it was unforgettable, and she would never forget it. But now when she thought about it carefully, she found...the only thing she clearly remembered was, There was only the scene of him holding his dead sister.

She didn't know what went wrong, but there was no time to investigate. Now, she could only do something with this few remaining clues, and the background of that scene——

It was this apartment. As for the specific location... Xia Ye quickly glanced around and immediately discovered that it was a location between the living room and the main door.

If you leave here now, will you be able to change history?

"Circuit breaker, I want to go out with my sister." She said suddenly.

"Going out?" Circuit Breaker glanced at her in surprise, "For your safety, I don't recommend doing this. If you have something that needs to be dealt with at the company, you might as well tell me and I will find a way. Online or other "Xia Ye is not going to go to the company, she just wants to leave here, but she is not going to waste time making up reasons either:
"We're not going to the company," she said. "We just want to go out. If we insist, will you stop us?"

Circuit Breaker was not angry and said businesslikely: "Of course not. I'm here to protect you, not to put you under house arrest. Although I strongly don't recommend you do this, if you insist, I will notify someone to arrange a vehicle now. "

"Does it take a long time to arrange a vehicle?"

"Within three minutes."

"Then as soon as possible, we will go out as soon as we are ready." Xia Ye said.

Circuit Breaker gave her a strange look, but in the end he didn't ask anything, took out his cell phone and started to communicate.

Things went surprisingly smoothly. Xia Ye originally thought that the other party would use various reasons to prevent herself and Dong Zhou from leaving the safe house, but she didn't expect that he agreed so easily.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, Dong Zhou's voice suddenly came from behind again:

"It's useless, sister..."

Xia Ye turned around suddenly.

The other party was looking at her with calm eyes. For a moment, she couldn't tell whether it was her sister or the city lord.

Almost at the same time, there was a rhythmic knock on the door, which was the code that Circuit Breaker had agreed with other colleagues in advance. The circuit breaker walked over and didn't rush to open the door:
"Who?"

"Distribution box."

Circuit Breaker glanced at his cell phone. The footage from the surveillance camera showed that it was indeed the distribution box standing at the door, but according to the arrangement, he should be staying in the apartment on the 19th floor at this time.

"What's the matter?" Circuit Breaker continued to ask.

The distribution box did not answer, but placed a piece of paper in front of the camera. On the paper, it was written that the current task of the "air switch" would be suspended immediately and the "distribution box" would take over. Below the order, there was a familiar autograph.

Circuit Breaker has encountered similar situations in the past. There are many reasons why the company urgently transfers field operators from the mission midway. It may be that the operator is suspected and needs to be reviewed; there may also be another urgent mission that requires the operator to be removed. Temporarily transferred there.

It doesn't matter what the reason is, what matters is that the signature - the details hidden in the strokes show that it is not a forgery, and that the person did like to give instructions in handwriting.

Since the top management was going to be replaced, she certainly had no reason to refuse to cooperate.

"what happened?"

Noticing the movement behind her, Xia Ye temporarily turned her attention away from Dong Zhou. Looking back, she saw the circuit breaker preparing to open the door.

"Normal staff rotation, don't worry." The other party said.

"Oh……"

Xia Ye was stunned for a second. Suddenly, an almost intuitive guess appeared in her brain, like a cold needle piercing her spine.

"Don't open the door!!" she yelled.

It was already too late. The door, which was strong enough to withstand anti-material rifle fire, was opened a small crack by the circuit breaker. The next moment, gunshots roared, and the woman's body flew backwards from the door into the living room like a torn sack.

The door was kicked open, and the "distribution box" holding a large-caliber capacitor pistol strode in. Behind him, closely followed by a group of heavily armed soldiers.

Their guns were pointed at the two men.

Xia Ye suddenly turned around and rushed towards Dong Zhou. They were less than two meters away from the glass door between the balcony and the living room, and that glass was also bulletproof!

Gunshots rang out almost simultaneously, passing through the living room and passing by Xia Ye. Suddenly, she felt a huge force push on her right shoulder. With this force, she carried Dong Zhou and rolled to the balcony. Before she had time to get up, she stretched her legs and quickly hooked on the door frame. The glass door slid and blocked her body. forward. Gunshots rang out soon after, leaving cracks like snowflakes on the bulletproof glass.

It was only at this moment that Xia Ye felt severe pain coming from his right shoulder, where a bullet had just passed through.

But she ignored her injury and turned to look at Dong Zhou. Her sister's eyes were dull, as if she had been frightened out of her wits - but the next second, she rejected her idea.

She saw her sister's lips opening and closing slightly, and a long string of syllables flowed out:

"SrbD-lc-RrMt——■-SmDsfmLrfsDr-"

The last time Xia Ye heard the same witch text was from Victoria's mouth, and Victoria only knew one witch contract:
"Pray"

Dongzhi suddenly disappeared from her eyes, and when he reappeared, he was in the center of the living room. The girl was running so fast that she seemed to be teleporting.

Immediately afterwards, messy gunshots and screams rang out in the living room.
