Is this okay?

Altair said, "Have something to drink to warm up."

Liuli said, "Thank you." She reached out and picked up the teacup. Her cold hands felt a warmth, and her brows slowly relaxed. She took a small sip, exhaled a breath of stale air, and felt her whole body relax.

At this moment, Altair also sat down, took a small sip of tea, let the aroma of the tea linger in his mouth, and revealed a blissful smile of enjoyment.

Seeing her smile, Liuli felt something was off, something strange. After a brief moment of thought, she realized what was wrong—she was too calm.

Yes, a feeling of calm and indifference. Even though the person she loved most had disappeared, she seemed completely unconcerned, her composure unbelievable, like the calm before a storm.

What is she waiting for?

Once she calmed down, Liuli immediately sensed something was wrong. She was smart and quickly realized this, but she didn't understand what Altair was waiting for—she felt vaguely uneasy.

Unexpectedly, at that very moment, Altair's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he glanced sideways at Liuli.

Liuli was startled. "What's wrong?"

The next second, Altair leaped from the sofa towards Liuli and shoved her aside. At the same time, a military knife appeared in his hand, and he slashed at the empty space beside him.

Swish! !

The blade flashed, so fast that Liuli didn't have time to react.

As the blade flashed, a cry of pain rang out.

"Ouch! My hand!"

—It's Yukari Yakumo!

At this moment, Liuli finally saw the situation clearly. A black gap had opened next to her seat, and a snow-white hand was suspended in mid-air. There was a wound on the hand, which was bleeding, but the wound healed in a second.

Altair stood in the living room protecting Ruri, not giving Yakumo Yukari any chance when she suddenly appeared. At the same time, she stared at the gap, her expression turning serious. "Yakumo Yukari, come out. We're practically equals in ability; your gap is useless against me."

As soon as she finished speaking, the gap opened, and Yakumo Yukari sat in her own gap, raising her hand to unfold the folding fan in front of her mouth and nose to cover half of her face, her eyes smiling as she watched Altair and Ruri in front of her.

"It's the same type of ability, how annoying."

Altair smiled slightly. "Yes, similar abilities. Although there are many differences, we are both ability-based characters. So what are you here for?"

Yukari Yakumo's eyes narrowed, and she said bluntly, "What are you here for? Of course, I'm here to stop you. Don't you see what's going on? You've completely misled a perfectly good child. Don't you have any conscience? But what surprises me is that you're here too. You usually don't care, do you?"

Altair smiled slightly: "There's really no way around it. I won't let you succeed!"

Yukari Yakumo said angrily, "That's enough! You're the ones who caused this mess. How are you going to clean it up later? And that newbie over there, don't be fooled by this guy. Amo has been lying to you from the beginning, and this guy is in cahoots with Amo. By the way, where's Amo? Why isn't he here?"

Mentioning Leng Mo, Liu Li's face darkened, and she couldn't help but lower her head so that Yakumo Yukari wouldn't see her expression.

Seeing Ruri's silence, Yukari Yakumo couldn't help but wonder, "What's going on? Could it be that that guy is hiding somewhere, trying to ambush us?!" As she spoke, she immediately became vigilant, looking left and right, afraid that Leng Mo would suddenly betray her.

However, Liuli said tremblingly, "Amo is dead."

Yukari Yakumo: ? ? ? ?

Ruri gritted her teeth, furious with herself, "Amo gave me his power... I'll never see him again!!" She looked up at Yakumo Yukari and cried out in sorrow.

Yakumo Yukari looked at Ruri with a confused expression, as if saying, "Are you kidding me?"

Leng Mo will die? He wouldn't die even if the world exploded! Do I look like an idiot to you? You actually believe that?

At that moment, Yukari Yakumo stared intently at Ruri and said seriously, "You've been fooled again. He's not dead."

Liuli said, "He was ambushed, and when I tried to take him away, he gave up. He gave me his own power and disappeared completely before my eyes..." She was very sad.

Yakumo Yukari exclaimed, "How could that be!"

Liuli said firmly, "Amo is dead, he's gone! But he lives on in my heart, in my chest, and with me!"

Yukari Yakumo: An elderly man on the subway looking at his phone, JPG

Yukari Yakumo was speechless. She glared at Altair reproachfully. "Look what you've done to such a good child! She's just a teenager! You heartless bastards!"

Altair gave an innocent smile; it really had little to do with her, she was just acting along.

Upon receiving such a response, Yukari Yakumo immediately realized that there was no way to continue the conversation. She had been thinking of laying things out clearly and then retaliating against Leng Mo, but now there was no chance left, as the other side had already gained the upper hand.

Now that things have come to this... now that things have come to this—we have no choice but to reveal our final trump card!

Turn the table!

As long as I take drastic measures, Leng Mo will definitely not stand idly by. The moment Leng Mo appears, everything will fall apart on its own!

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for showing no mercy!"

Yakumo Yukari's expression changed drastically on the spot, and her immense demonic power erupted instantly, shaking the entire room. However, she overlooked one thing, which was how Ruri saw things—after hearing that Leng Mo was dead, her attitude changed drastically on the spot, clearly showing that she no longer had any scruples and could act recklessly.

Immediately, Ruri became serious and assumed a fighting stance. She felt pressure as she watched Yakumo Yukari unleash her demonic power. She was a complete novice in combat, having previously relied on Leng Mo's power to overwhelm opponents. She was unfamiliar with how to use this power.

Across from her, Yukari Yakumo said fiercely, "I'll destroy you—! Let's see how that guy keeps up the act!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yakumo Yukari opened a huge gap with her hand. She wanted to unleash an attack in one go to kill Ruri. Only in this way could she make Leng Mo emerge, and then she would be victorious.

As long as you're ruthless enough, the gentle and kind Amo won't stand idly by!

Thinking of this, her demonic power grew even stronger, even carrying a world-destroying aura.

It's now!

Yakumo Yukari's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and she raised her hand, aiming it at Ruri's position, unleashing her demonic power.

"Abandoned Line - A Journey to Abandoned Stations!!"

Boom boom boom——!

A huge abandoned train burst out from the gap and rushed towards Liuli on the other side without any mercy, showing no restraint whatsoever. Its impact force and demonic power were at their peak.

The abandoned train was moving at lightning speed, giving Liuli no time to react or even realize what was happening.

Liuli stared wide-eyed at the abandoned train coming towards her. She wanted to dodge, but her body couldn't keep up with her thoughts, and she could only stand there and belatedly try to avoid it.

However, such an approach is impossible to dodge.

Realizing this, Yukari Yakumo revealed a triumphant smile. "Hehehe, you can't escape now! Are you still going to hide now?"

Unexpectedly, at that moment, Altair pushed Liuli aside, his eyes filled with tenderness as he looked at her.

Liuli turned her head in surprise, "Althael?"

Altair smiled slightly and said gently, "Liuli, if Amo's power can be transformed into your power, I will believe in it wholeheartedly, so... I can't stay with you for the rest of the time."

"Huh? What do you mean..."

Boom——! ! !

Before Liuli could finish speaking, the abandoned train instantly swallowed Altair's body, leaving only the train's body behind, while Altair disappeared without a trace.

boom--! !

The abandoned train pierced through the hotel wall, crashed into the high-rise building opposite, and then slammed into the building.

"Al-Tair!"

Regaining her senses, Ruri looked through the shattered wall at the building opposite, her face filled with astonishment and disbelief. She couldn't understand why Altair had been hit so easily, and even had a feeling that it was intentional...intentional!!

Ah Mo, he's my hero. Altair's happy smile flashed through his mind.

Her pupils contracted as she sensed something and looked at the building outside, billowing smoke in terror. It was as if she had figured things out and was gradually understanding everything.

Why did Altair show a regretful smile and then act indifferent after learning of Leng Mo's death?

That's not indifference at all!

Instead, she planned to go with him!

That's why she acted indifferent, that's why she was so gentle with me, and that's why she seemed to be doing it on purpose just now!

How could anyone be indifferent to such feelings!

How could one not care about such happiness!

Regretful! Shocking! Regretful!

Liuli stared in disbelief at the building across the street, at the spot where the thick smoke had dissipated.

My heart trembled, I was shocked, and then felt a belated sadness.

In the ruins, Altair lay covered in blood in the crater shattered by the abandoned train, his face still bearing that gentle, happy smile, though the look in his eyes had gradually faded.

She smiled wistfully and said, "Finally... we can be together, Amo."

As soon as she finished speaking, her body slowly transformed into specks of white light, flickering like fireflies in the night, and then disappeared.

In the final second, she looked at the glass of the building across the street and gave it an apologetic yet happy smile, "I'm sorry, I lied to you. From now on... you'll have to carry this burden alone."

Altair vanished completely!

"Al-Thai-Er!" Ruri screamed in sorrow upon seeing this scene, trying to call her back.

She understood Altair's feelings for Leng Mo, because Altair was who he was today because of Leng Mo, so she understood Altair's actions, but—!

"—This doesn't make sense at all! Why! Why did you do this! Altair!! You could have...you could have..." Ruri cried out sadly in the direction Altair had disappeared, but there was no one left to answer her questions.

Upon witnessing this scene, Yukari Yakumo was dumbfounded, standing there speechless, her mind completely blank.

Thinking about it carefully and putting myself in their shoes, I suddenly realized, oh dear, I'm doomed!

From Liuli's perspective, no matter how she looks at it or thinks about it, her side is the enemy!

You're a god!

Is this also in your plans?

A-er-tai-er!

what--!

She felt like a groundhog in the countryside, standing on a wooden pole and letting out the purest cry towards the distant sky.

Holy crap! Holy crap! Did I shoot myself in the foot?!

She was stunned, staring at Liuli, who was overcome with grief, completely at a loss. She slowly took a half-step back, shaking her head in disbelief and astonishment, "No...this isn't right...I clearly didn't mean that..."

A fierce glint flashed in Ruri's eyes as she abruptly turned to look at Yakumo Yukari, unleashing her most sorrowful rage.

"Yakumo-yuki!!"

"No! That's not how I am! I didn't mean to do that. You've been deceived by them. Whether it's Amo or Altair, they're all lying to you. I'm the one on your side!" Yakumo Yukari tried to explain the truth, looking at Ruri in a panic, but the more she spoke, the more wrong it sounded. Perhaps at this moment, any words would seem pale and powerless.

Ruri glared angrily at Yakumo Yukari, gritting her teeth and shouting, "Look what you've done!!"

"Ah, this..." Yukari Yakumo felt guilty and had no idea how to explain this!

There's no point in explaining anymore; this is a situation that can't be cleared up even if you jump into the Yellow River.

She stood there pale and conflicted, her mind racing. "Destroy it all, hurry up, I'm tired."

The next second, black energy erupted from Liuli's body. She sensed it; it was Leng Mo's power. It seemed to erupt endlessly, like Leng Mo's anger, without any limit.

She stood there, clutching her chest, as if she had finally understood something. "I understand... I understand what the power Ah Mo left me was—it's the power of the heart..."

At this moment, Liuli fully understood how power was used, and felt the warmth surging from her heart—the warmth given to her by Amo and Altair.

At that moment, she realized something.

I've grasped the power I gained from Leng Mo!

She glared angrily at Yakumo Yukari, who looked at Ruri in horror and took a half-step back.

"I am going to kill you!"

Ruri clenched her fists in anger and charged at Yakumo Yukari, her fists and body unleashing unprecedented power under the black force.

She threw a punch at Yukari Yakumo, the speed of which was astonishing. However, this speed was not fast enough for Yukari Yakumo to dodge, but her mind was not on the battle at the moment.

"Listen to me...you...you don't come near me, ahhhhhh—!" She stared in terror at the oncoming glass, leaned back, and raised her hands to her chest.

boom--!

Only Liuli knew what kind of scene that punch had created. But even such a scene could not quell the anger and sorrow in her heart.

"Puwawawawawawawawa—!"

Upon being struck, Yukari Yakumo coughed up a mouthful of blood. She was thrown into the air, spinning and leaping, her eyes closed. She was in unbearable pain—both physically and mentally. She felt utterly helpless, with no chance of recovery.

Boom——!

She gave up thinking and flew backward, crashing through the wall behind her, passing through the hotel, and plummeting straight down to the ground in the distance.

Rumble!
