Stealing Pens: Travelers from the End of the World

Tan Yuchen was silent for a while, then walked over and sat down cross-legged.

"Are you a squirrel?"

【Yes. 】

Qin Yuchen reached out and pinched 007's ears, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where is this?"

[The space created by world consciousness. 】007 put his paws on Qin Yuchen's wrist, trying to use his arms to climb up to his shoulders.

Qin Yuchen frowned, picked up the back of 007's neck and put it further away: "Dirty."

【Am I not dirty? 】007 looked down at his beautiful and smooth hair, feeling a little aggrieved, 【I love to be clean! 】

"I'm not talking about you." Tan Yuchen pointed to the blood on his body with a smile and said, "Why are we coming in?"

【Oh yes. ] 007 took out towels and a medical kit from the space, [The main purpose of our visit this time is to return things. I can't leave the host, so I have to go in trouble. 】

[My dear, you should deal with it first, but I don’t know if it will be useful. After all, my consciousness entered, so the injuries on my body may still be the same after I come out. 】

"Yeah." Tan Yuchen didn't care when he heard what 007 said. He just carefully cleaned the blood stains and then casually wrapped some bandages, "What else is there?"

007 took out the tea set from the space and fiddled with it while saying: [The energy ball of world consciousness. 】

[Now, that pine cone I put there. 】

"?" Tan Yuchen picked up the pine cone on the table and looked at it carefully. He could feel that there were two energies inside, one was warm and familiar, and the other felt very similar to the one here.

"Why are the energy balls here with you?"

【Uh……】

A gust of breeze blew past Qin Yuchen and stopped on the other side of the stone table.

Qin Yuchen squinted his eyes and noticed a shadow covered by white clouds appearing opposite him.

He looked at the figure and seemed to turn around, then sat down.

Qin Yuchen raised his eyebrows and asked 007 with his eyes.

Before 007 could speak, an ethereal, distant and somewhat old voice sounded:

(Children from the end of the world, long time no see.)

"..." Tan Yuchen held his chin with his right hand and looked at the person opposite him whose face could not be seen clearly with an expressionless expression, and asked, "World consciousness?"

[Yes, big. ] 007 spoke appropriately, [This is the ultimate thing I mentioned to you. 】

"Ah."

"Long time no see?" Tan Yuchen knew his memory very well. He knew with certainty that he had never encountered such a thing, so he was a little surprised when he heard the words "Long time no see."

007 and the world's consciousness were silent for a moment. 007 handed the brewed tea to the two of them, then sat on the right side of Tan Yuchen and thought about what to say:

[Well... My dear, He met you more than thirty years ago. 】

【That’s when you came to this world. 】

Qin Yuchen lowered his eyes and looked at 007, waiting for its next chapter.

007 was in trouble and felt that it was quite difficult to explain this matter. It secretly glanced at the Ultimate who was drinking tea solemnly opposite, patted his belly and said: [Ultimate, how about you explain it. 】

(...cough) Finally, he put down his teacup and coughed lightly, thought for a while and asked,

(Child, do you still remember what happened before you traveled through time?)

Tan Yuchen nodded.

(This has to start before your accident...) Finally, he picked up the pine cone, held it in his hand and waved it, and the scene in front of Tan Yuchen changed.

The place where they are now is his previous world. At night without large-scale human activities, only the moonlight brings some light.

The depressed streets are full of zombies stumbling around, some squatting in corners to eat.

As soon as Qin Yuchen saw the golden light flashing across the horizon, he heard the ultimate voice speaking,

(Those are the distress signals sent by the consciousness of this apocalyptic world. When it senses that its last bit of energy is slowly disappearing, it wants to contact other consciousnesses in thousands of worlds.)

(The purpose is to get you to leave.)

"...Why?" Tan Yuchen didn't understand.

【God’s choice. 】007 sat on Tan Yuchen's shoulder as he wished, and rubbed the side of Tan Yuchen's face with his fleshy cheek.

Qin Yuchen thought there would be a continuation of this sentence, but after 007 finished speaking, he sat quietly, firmly grasped the collar with his claws, and stopped talking.

"choose?"

(Yes.)

Ultimately, before Qin Yuchen could ask any more questions, he continued, (I happened to wake up one day after the signal was sent, so I contacted him.)

(But if we want the destiny of one world to carry the consciousness energy of two worlds to another world, we still need to find something that can carry this energy, so we found 007's headquarters, the Space-Time Bureau.)

The scene in front of me changed again. Night turned into day. There was a small modified truck running fast on the street. There were many zombies jumping up around the car. The cargo box door at the back was open. Inside Two machine guns were firing continuously.

Halfway through the car, something happened in the cargo box. Unclear sounds of fighting were heard, and then two corpses and a young man covered in blood were pushed out, and were finally submerged in the zombies.

007 saw the young man being devoured and disintegrated by the zombies, and rubbed his head against Tan Yuchen's face again, as if he wanted to comfort him in this way.

Qin Yuchen reached out and patted 007's little head, with a calm expression as if he was looking at an outsider.

(You were almost eaten when 007 found you. It used its own energy to protect the last bit of flesh and blood and brought you to me.)
