A prince from a certain American comic book

Using the river of time to trace back to a mortal wouldn't break the critical point that Ike himself estimated would alert the Time Stone.

"The river of time."

“Annie McCulloch, come out here.”

"Oh!"

The once tranquil river of time was suddenly stirred by a thought in Ike's mind. Ike stood on the edge of the river of time, watching the waves grow larger and the sound of the river of time grow louder and louder.

With a loud bang!

A drop of water bounced off the wave the moment it appeared.

Ike's eyes lit up.

A thought crossed my mind.

The moment the water droplet merged into the river of time, Ike also saw Annie McCulloch's timeline.

Chapter 081: The Truth That Makes You Frown

Annie McCulloch's timeline is still intact. (Ice and Fire Chinese website www.BHzw.Cc)

The dead also exist on the timeline, but their timelines are fixed and they only flow from the main road into the side streets.

However, Annie's timeline converges within the main river channel.

The past, present, and future are all there.

Ike waved his right hand.

With a single thought, he entered the timeline that belonged only to Aini.

Ten minutes later.

Sean, who was pacing back and forth in front of Ike, who was getting impatient, stopped in his tracks.

Ike slowly opened his eyes.

Sean looked at Ike with a thirst for knowledge.

Ike, however, frowned deeply.

quite a while.

Just as Sean was about to explode with impatience, Ike snapped out of his daze, looked up at Sean, and said, "I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"

Sean was taken aback: "...Good news."

Ike said with a smile, "Annie is still alive. In fact, Annie is still in Baltimore."

Sean's face lit up with undisguised surprise.

really.

Even a tough guy who changes girlfriends every time he completes a mission had the purest love when he was young.

That's what Ike thought to himself.

Sean laughed out loud, but before he could enjoy his laughter for long, he suddenly remembered that Ike had mentioned two pieces of news, so he asked Ike, "What's the bad news?"

Ike said expressionlessly, "The one who wants to kill us is Annie."

Sean asked incredulously, "...What?"

Ike nodded calmly.

This news is shocking.

When Ekko first saw it, he couldn't believe it either, and even used time rewind twice to confirm it.

In the time rewind, Ike saw everything.

The beginning of Sadako's videotape.

Charles and Annie's viewing.

The phone rings after the film ends, and Ike even sees Annie's panicked expression when she answers the phone in the time loop.

Then came the argument between Annie and Charles.

A copy of the photo of Annie before she left home.

Then, Ike even saw the young deliveryman he had met once before at the door, whom he didn't recognize, embracing a panicked Annie.

After that...

Ike looked up at Sean and said calmly, "Jack Freeman, does that name sound familiar?"

Sean wiped his face and nodded, "Of course, he used to be Annie's neighbor, and that Dalmatian was a gift from Feliman to Annie before he moved."

Ike then looked at Sean with a strange expression, as if Sean had a vast, green grassland above his head.

No wonder this guy likes to put hats on other people when he grows up.

The shadows of youth can follow you for a lifetime.

Sean was completely baffled by the look he was getting.

Ike snapped out of his daze, patted Sean on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "I need you to be prepared."

Sean blinked.

After half an hour.

Sean drove and parked on the side of one of Baltimore’s most chaotic streets.

Sean peered out the car window at the six-story apartment building with its orange-red exterior and asked curiously, "Are you sure Annie is here?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Ike glanced at the room and nodded, saying, "Yes, third floor, room 305. Go ahead."

Sean, who had just gotten out of the car, looked at Ike, who was sitting in the passenger seat and showed no sign of getting out, and asked, "Aren't you coming along?"

A smile appeared on Ike's face as he said, "If I go, you'll probably regret having me come along."

Sean frowned.

On the drive here, Ike had already asked similar riddles more than once: what color is grass, what is the word for environmental protection, what color are vegetables, and so on...

In short, the more Sean asked, the more confused he became.

Ike shook his head at the bewildered Sean and said, "Go quickly, but let me remind you, everyone gets angry, but a true strong person will not let anger control them, but will make themselves the master of anger."

Sean scratched the back of his head.

quite a while.

Sean shook his head and crossed the street toward the apartment building with its orange-red exterior.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Ike watched Sean walk in excitedly and sighed softly.

Ike knew that ten minutes later, Sean DeCarter, who would emerge from the apartment door looking distraught, would ultimately be transformed and extraordinary.

in other words.

Ten minutes later, Sean DeCarter would no longer be an ordinary person, but would be blessed with good fortune. No matter how reckless he acted, as long as he didn't want to die, he wouldn't die.

A man's growth is always inseparable from a woman.

Women always think there are far too many scumbags in the world.

But what?

They never considered one thing: why are there scumbags? What men remember most is always their first time. Similarly, men always have a different feeling about their first possession than about anything else that comes after.

Yes.

The existence of scumbag men is entirely due to women.

Ten minutes later.

Accompanied by a sharp and somewhat familiar scream, a series of fighting sounds came directly from the window of the third-floor corridor of the apartment.

However, the situation quickly calmed down.

Ike blinked and looked up at the third floor of the apartment with a sense of wonder.

next second.

Ike's eyes narrowed, and he pushed open the passenger door, speeding up like lightning as he sped towards the apartment wall.

boom!

With a tap of his right foot, Ike used a Tai Chi-like push to deflect most of the force of the object falling from the third-floor corridor window and then pushed it to the side.

With a loud bang.

With a wail, although most of the force was dissipated, the unidentified object still crashed heavily onto the concrete ground.

Ike faintly heard the sound of bones breaking.

Not long after.

Like an angry bull, Sean rolled up his sleeves and walked out of the apartment, heading straight for Jack Freeman, who was lying on the concrete floor with a broken right arm and wearing only his underwear.

Ike blocked Sean's path.

Sean looked up at Ike and said in a hoarse voice, "Get out of the way."

Ike shook his head.

Sean glared angrily.

Ike smiled, glanced at the residents who had come out for their morning exercise and noticed the commotion, and then said calmly, "If this guy dies inside the room, I can help you sort it out, but if he dies outside? Is it worth it?"

Sean's gaze swept past Ike's shoulder and landed on Jack Freeman, who lay on the ground looking somewhat like a skinny monkey.

The skinny monkey clutched his fractured right arm and wailed in pain.

Ike asked, "Did you see Annie?"

Sean regained his composure, calmed the anger in his chest, looked at Ike, and nodded.

Ike laughed and said, "Let me guess, when you were beating this guy, did Annie say, 'You're not my boyfriend, it's none of your business who I'm with'?"

Sean's gaze at Ike froze instantly.
