Arknights? Yesterday's Arknights!!

Yelena grabbed his wrist, making Yang jump around anxiously, and his tone changed.

"Big sister? Big sister! I haven't offended you. Can we fulfill your request?"

"Come here!"

Yang Ge was no match for Yelena; she grabbed him and asked him a question.

"Where's Talulah?!"

"Huh? It doesn't hurt! No frostbite? Big sister, you're all better?!" He touched the back of his head, initially jumping up and down with excitement, his face beaming. But upon hearing Yelena's question, he looked puzzled. "Isn't the leader right beside you?"

"No, that's not it. I'm asking you... never mind, where do you think I should be? Take me there."

Also, I'm better now.

Yelena felt that explaining was too troublesome, and a direct confrontation would be simpler.

She asked Yang Ge to lead the way, and the three of them followed behind, listening to Yang Ge's rambling.

"Big sister, your outfit is really nice. Where did you get it? The old styles were nice too, but the fabric was too bad. The fabric of yours is really good."

"Why is the leader of Talulah wearing a military uniform again? Haven't you been wearing those light, flowing dresses for the past few months?"

"You must be Teacher Alina? It's been such a long time, probably two or three months. I haven't seen you since you stepped down as political commissar."

"........"

Yang's words made the three of them realize that there was indeed a big difference between the real world line and the if world line.

"By the way, Ms. Alina, why are you wearing a military uniform too? The Reunion Movement logo looks really good. Do we have any spare money to order custom-made clothes?"

"Wait, forget about the clothes." Alina paused. "How is Tian Duan City?"

“Tian Duan City? I don’t know…” Yang replied, “We’ve already taken Chernobog, what could possibly happen to Tian Duan City?”

“It’s over.” Alina was stunned, stopped in her tracks, and looked at Talulah.

"Alina, how about..."

"No rush. There's no point in me going back to Tian Duan City now. Either it's over, or it never happened."

Alina shook her head. "Let's go find the you in this world and get all the answers we need to know."

".......Um."

After this conversation, Yang Ge was completely confused. Anyway, since his older sister was here, there shouldn't be any problems. If something happened, there would still be his older sister and father. He could just follow along and charge into battle.

He led three people into downtown Chernobog, turning left and right, and stopped in front of a house, speaking to the people behind him.

"This is it. The Yetis are staying here for now. Big Sister won't let us go out and do 'that kind of thing'."

In the dark corridor, three people stood in front of the door. Yelena stepped forward, pressed her hand against the door panel, and pushed it hard. Light shone through the window, through the room, and into the corridor.

Froststar sat in the shadows inside the room, while Yelena was bathed in sunlight in the corridor.

"What... what's going on!" Yang Ge was stunned for a moment, then immediately created distance and drew the dagger from his waist.

He aimed his weapon at Yelena, the pioneer. In his view, anyone who could touch his body at will, even if they looked exactly the same, must be an enemy in disguise.

"Alright, Yang, don't be nervous." Yelena stretched out her hand, an ice crystal floating in her palm. "You all recognize this, right? It can prove my identity."

"Winter Mark, who are you?" Froststar stood up and placed her hand on the longsword at her waist.

"I am you, or rather, I am from another timeline, three years in the future."

Pioneer retracted Winter's Mark. "I'll call you Froststar from now on. At this point in time, my codename should still be Froststar. You can call me Pioneer. That's what everyone called me in 1099."

"Why should I trust you?" Frostnova retorted. "Don't you think this is utterly absurd?"

"Well, being summoned here is indeed surprising, but I'm even more surprised by the Reunion Movement in this world. Damn it, what are you doing?"

The Pioneer entered the room, revealing Talulah and Alina behind him. Frostnova frowned instantly upon seeing Talulah, her mind racing with thoughts.

Talulah looked up, indicating that she meant no harm, and asked a question.

"Frostnova, it may be hard for you to accept, but the pioneers here and I do come from the same timeline. I want to know what I am doing in this timeline? Why has the Reunion Movement turned out this way?"

"How is the Reunion Movement doing in your timeline? Are they doing better than us?" Frostnova asked.

"Naturally, we come from 1099. Ursus has been overthrown, and we have established a new nation, a nation where ordinary people and the infected coexist."

At this point, Talulah, Alina, and the Pioneers couldn't help but straighten their chests.

Yang Ge was completely stunned and had no idea what was happening.

Froststar remained silent.

Half a minute later, with an incredulous expression, she asked a few people.

"really?"

“Really.” Pioneer nodded.

Froststar stared at the Pioneer; that face was exactly like hers, and Originium Arts couldn't be faked.

If she really is from another timeline 1099, and is still so healthy...

That means she has three more years to live?

However, no one knows her better than Froststar; she is already at her wit's end.

It would be good enough if we could survive this year.

Froststar asked her, "How did I live to be 1099? At most, by the end of this year, my body will definitely not be able to hold on."

"On our timeline, there is a person named An Xin..."

Before Pioneer could finish speaking, he was abruptly interrupted by Frostnova, who slammed her hand on the table, staring intently at Pioneer, and asked, word by word.

"An Xin? He's in your timeline, he's not dead? Answer me, he's not dead?"

"What? Wait, you know An Xin?" Alina couldn't help but ask.

Now it was the three of them's turn to be shocked. So there was an An Xin in this world?

However, according to An Xin, everything he experienced was fake. He was just a policeman in Lungmen. Why would Yelena in this world know him?

"Why wouldn't I know her? Since you all know An Xin, is it strange that An Xin exists in our timeline?" Froststar frowned, not understanding why they asked such a question.

"This is really a big surprise."

Talulah stroked her chin and crossed her arms. "It seems that Anxin's prediction about the game was wrong."

That makes sense. I met An Xin once when I was a child. Time wasn't an issue for him at all; he just didn't realize it.

It seems that information asymmetry led An Xin to make a wrong judgment, which affected some things.

"There's nothing we can do, isn't An Xin supposed to be an ordinary police officer?" Alina couldn't help but chuckle.

"An ordinary policeman? What ordinary policeman can produce Marxist philosophy and write such a program?" Pioneer Yelena couldn't help but roll her eyes. She thought An Xin was good in every way, except that she underestimated herself.

During the Reunion Movement, no matter what important task was given to him, he felt that he was not up to the task.

Back in Longmen, he found himself feeling like just an ordinary policeman.

That sense of justice and fairness couldn't possibly come from an ordinary police officer.

There was no way around it; before transmigrating, An Xin was just an ordinary police officer who had never even held a girl's hand. As for Marxist philosophy and principles, those weren't required courses; even students who went to school would take moral education classes.

After arriving in Terra, he thought he was physically strong, but he was immediately defeated by Koschche and Wei Yanwu. Later, he joined the Reunion Movement, but he couldn't even beat Big Daddy, let alone Talulah and Yelena.

Even if it was later discovered that he was considered strong among ordinary people, how could someone who had witnessed the peak be overly arrogant?

In reality, even Alina, who had served in the army for three years, couldn't beat An Xin, who was a level seven master trained by a grandmaster. He was actually quite strong, but he just didn't think so.

The three women present did not consider An Xin to be weak, otherwise they would not have fallen for him.

Upon learning that Anxin had also helped the Reunion Movement in this timeline, Talulah shook her head, even more confused, and continued to ask.

"Since you know An Xin, didn't An Xin leave you with Marxist philosophy and a program?"

"It was left behind... but what's the use of that? Things are ultimately inanimate; they need people to put them into practice."

Frostnova has accepted that they come from other timelines. "Talulah, no, I'm not talking about you. It seems like Anxin's death has hit her too hard. She's like a completely different person."

"An Xin is dead?" Pioneer Yelena stared wide-eyed, looking incredulous.

Just a few hours ago, they were with An Xin, listening to her entire gaming experience.

"How long ago was this?" Talulah asked.

“Three months ago, in June,” Froststar recalled, then smiled helplessly as she spoke to them, “In your world, An Xin didn’t die?”

"Not only did she not die, she's also the lover of all three of us." Alina hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Yelena, I have to tell you, An Xin in this world didn't actually die either."

“How could that be? I saw his body with my own eyes. We buried him in Tianduan City.”

“It’s probably an item from the in-game store.” Talulah sighed. “I never imagined that the dividing line between this world and our world would be the moment the game officially ends. I should have told Anxin this as soon as possible.”

"What are you talking about?" Froststar was getting more and more confused, and now she couldn't understand anything at all.

"It's okay, we can talk about these things later. Alright, we may have to part ways."

Talulah looked at Frostnova, "You have to take me to see the me of this world. I need to find her and demand justice. Anxin's death is a huge blow to us, but we can't let her down. Anxin left behind the philosophy and the platform, ruining the Reunion Movement like this."

"And what about us?" asked Yelena, the pioneer.

“Let’s go to Sky City and see how it’s doing,” Talulah said. “Don’t worry about me. Reunion is an extension of my will. No one can hurt me.”
