Arknights? Yesterday's Arknights!!

Arknights? Yesterday's Arknights!! (Written by Sleepy Rabbit)

"I want to do something for this world, for the people, for everyone."

An Xin still remembers the oath he took when he joined the police force.

Even after he transmigrated to this world, it was the same; in each game, he made countless choices, and finally changed the world.

"Twenty years ago, I helped Wei Yanwu; two years ago, I helped Talulah; I saved Alina, creating a new timeline."

On that day, the Black Serpent Talulah saw Alina and the warrior Talulah alive and broke down in tears in front of everyone.

"At that time, Skadi reached out her hand to me and told me she was in pain and asked me to kill her. I chose to assimilate with her and become a part of her."

Later, Skadi, the newborn of the deep sea, and Skadi, the deep-sea hunter, forced me to choose one of them. I said I didn't want to give up either of them.

"One day in Syracuse, I met a little girl who was homeless. She said she had no home, and I said I could be your brother, and we would be family."

When we were in Longmen, she found me, but there was someone who looked exactly like her, only slightly older.

The game continues...

Arknights? This is Yesterday's Arknights!

All regrets will be made up for.

Volume One

Chapter 1 An Xin, a Policeman from Longmen

"Have you heard? Today's interview was changed to Mr. Chen. Poor thing."

"Oh no, Inspector Chen went in person? We're really short-staffed lately. With those standards, whoever meets Inspector Chen's criteria will be the one we need to keep hiring."

"Sigh, if only Sister Gui were here, she could hire a few more people and share the burden."

Two police officers from the Imperial Guard were slurping rice noodle rolls at the entrance, gossiping about the latest news.

The protagonist of the gossip is in a rather simple office, with only a desk and a long bench for entertaining guests.

The woman had long blue hair, and her eyes revealed an unwavering belief, but her face was grim.

In other words, he always had a sullen face.

Holding a document, she questioned the young man opposite her as if she were interrogating a criminal.

"Name?"

"An Xin".

"age."

"Twenty-two years old."

"Where did you graduate from?"

"Victoria Royal Guard Academy"

While eating rice noodle rolls that morning, he overheard some news that the man in front of him, Officer Chen, had also graduated from the Royal Guard College of Victoria.

An Xin paused for a moment, "In a sense, I can be considered your junior."

"Bang!" Chen Huijie slammed the materials onto the table, making a loud noise.

With a long face, she said, "Did I ask you? You're trying to get on my good side right away?"

“I don’t want to curry favor, but you’re interrogating me like a criminal, Inspector Chan. I’m here for a police interview, not to be a convict.”

An Xin remained calm and composed, showing no fear of Chen Huijie's angry actions.

He did nothing wrong, so why is he acting this way?

Chen Huijie looked at An Xin's arrogant expression, rubbed her temples, and looked down at the materials.

It's not that An Xin's conditions are bad, but rather that his conditions are too good.

The young man had dazzling long, curly golden hair like a golden lion's mane, running from his forehead to his shoulders. A strand of golden hair slid down his forehead and across his face, adding a touch of unruliness to his handsome features.

He was wearing a long trench coat over a white shirt, with a sword and a staff hanging at his waist.

Standing at 1.95 meters tall, with his muscular physique, he appeared even more robust, making him look like a real lion.

But Chen Huijie knew he wasn't a lion.

The horns on his head, his composure, and his unruly arrogance all betrayed his identity.

Anxin is a pseudonym.

His true identity....

This document is written in a file, and so far only she and two other people have seen it.

Another rich kid who came here to gain prestige. Chen Huijie hated these kinds of people who got in through connections, but his conditions were just too good.

He learned boxing in Yumen when he was young and has been practicing Originium Arts called Thunder Magic. He studied in Victoria when he was a teenager and came to work here immediately after graduation.

Chen Huijie couldn't think of any reason to refuse. Based on her open and fair thinking, An Xin should even be ranked first in this interview.

Since there's no way to refuse, I'll just have to take him in for now. What a spoiled brat. If he makes a mistake, I'll send him away later.

Before letting him leave, she asked one last question, staring at the young man with her eyes.

Why do you want to be a policeman?

An Xin paused for a moment when faced with this question.

Many things flashed through his mind. His gaze calmed and then turned serious. He straightened his body, met Chen Huijie's eyes, and slowly recited two lines of poetry.

"If all living beings can be fed, I will not hesitate to lie in the setting sun despite my weakness and illness."

Though my position is humble, I dare not forget my duty to the nation; even after the matter is settled, I must wait until my coffin is closed.

A long silence followed, filled with scrutinizing gazes, as if time had stood still.

Chen Huijie turned around, her back to An Xin, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She felt that An Xin was somewhat familiar, much like someone she remembered.

No, it can't be him.

Although the name is the same and the coat looks very similar to the one at her home, the age doesn't match, and the medical report clearly states that An Xin does not have Oripathy.

She witnessed it with her own eyes... that person's right arm was pierced by Originium. So many years have passed; perhaps he's already succumbed to Originium disease...

Stop thinking about it. Chen Huijie snapped out of her reverie, turned around, interlaced her fingers, and rested them on the bridge of her nose, meeting An Xin's gaze.

“Someone once said something similar to me, which is similar to what you mean.”

He was saying, "The greatest heroes are those who serve their country and its people."

An Xin was very calm, even a little indifferent, and asked in a flat tone.

"I got accepted?"

"Okay, get your things today, and report to the Guard Bureau tomorrow. From now on, you'll be working for me." Chen Huijie was still annoyed with this gilded young master.

"Yes, Inspector Chan."

An Xin, stand at attention and salute.

After that, he turned and left.

After leaving the house, An Xin realized that she hadn't asked Inspector Chen where to pick up her uniform.

He greeted the policeman at the door and offered him a cigarette.

I remember this guy giving me a meaningful look when he heard I was there for an interview, and even patting me on the shoulder, telling me to try harder next time.

An Xin didn't understand at the time, but now she understands a little better. She smiled and asked.

"Hey bro, can you tell me where we can get our equipment?"

“Oh, turn left and go find Miss, she’s in charge of this.” The police officer answered subconsciously, then his eyes widened, he grabbed An Xin’s wrist, his jaw dropped, and asked again.

"You passed the interview?"

“Yes, Inspector Chen told me to go get my clothes.” An Xin nodded and turned to leave.

The astonished old police officer rubbed his eyes, watching the young man's figure disappear around the corner.

Just then, An Xin suddenly felt a light blue, semi-transparent screen appear in front of her.

Goldfinger?

Finally here.

He had been in the time travel for a while. He was originally a student who had just graduated from police academy. He went back to his hometown to take the police exam, but one time when he was on a mission, he encountered criminals who were illegally possessing firearms.

An Xin never expected that a small civil case would involve firearms, and that the other party would launch a sudden attack.

After being shot, An Xin used her last strength to hold the prisoner down before losing consciousness.
