Eriko Makabe opened her eyes and found herself standing on the street. She was still wearing crumpled pajamas, her bare feet touched the rough asphalt ground, and the sun shone warmly on her body.She looked around blankly, and found that she was indeed not in that small room anymore.It wasn't until the shrill car horns on the road that she completely regained her sanity, and then she hurried back from the middle of the road to the side of the road.

Did she go back to the past?

Through the window glass of the roadside store, she saw the electronic quartz clock hanging inside, clearly showing the time at this time, 2216:4 on April 13, 10.She let out a soft "Yeah". It was not long before her parents died, and she had to rush back.Fortunately, it was not far from her home, so she ran desperately.

Faster, faster!

She didn't have time to avoid the pedestrians on the street, and the rampage caused many people to curse, but she didn't have time to care about it, she just wanted to be faster.

When she ran to the door of the house, she was already exhausted. She propped up her trembling legs, panting heavily, and it took a long time for her to recover a little.She straightened up and took several deep breaths before knocking on the door.The mother's familiar voice came from inside the door. The moment the voice came, various emotions surged up at the same time, happy, nostalgic, wronged...

Makabe Chiyo heard the knock on the door without haste, she thought it was the debtors, hesitated for a moment, and then asked who it was, but got no response.She walked slowly to the door, and through the peephole, she saw her daughter standing at the door.She quickly opened the door and asked in confusion, "Eriko, why are you back?"

She suddenly saw the wound on Makabe Eriko's head, and before she could speak, she was hugged. Hearing her daughter's wronged cry, her heart was pulled hard, and she hugged her gently, gently Pat her on the back to comfort her.

Makae Riko hugged Makabe Chiyo tightly, she was so shocked by the sense of joy she had lost and regained that she couldn't speak, tears couldn't stop falling down, maybe because she was afraid that the person in front of her would disappear like a bubble in an instant, no matter how Makabe Chiyo comforted her, She refused to let go.

That person didn't lie to me, my mother is still alive!she is alive!

Time went back to the time when Eriko Makabe called the mysterious man.

The phone that Riko Makabe thought would not be answered was picked up after a burst of beeps.A familiar low-pitched male voice sounded from the receiver, with a blunt modulation. It was indeed the voice of the weird man she met yesterday afternoon.She didn't care whether the other party's words were true or not, she just didn't want to go on like this anymore, she wanted her parents to survive.

After she said her request, she quickly hung up the phone, and then suddenly felt that her behavior was ridiculous. How could there be such an absurd thing as changing history in this world?It seems that I am really crazy...

But in less than 10 minutes, a blinding light suddenly lit up in her room, and the small space was instantly illuminated. The man who spoke strange words appeared in the light, his face as cold as plaster was pale under the light Infiltrate.The moment the man saw her, he showed that weird smile again, and said, "I told you, you will need it."

The man handed her a compass-shaped metal device with obscure Chinese characters written on it, which was slightly smaller than her mobile phone.The man told her that this device can help her go back to any part of the past she wants to change, but the number of times is limited, and the device will be completely destroyed after reaching the limited number of times.

"The device needs to be driven by spiritual power, but Ms. Makabe has no spiritual power and cannot be activated." The man stood in front of Eriko Makabe, condescendingly looking at the girl who was playing with the compass, and spoke the truth without any fluctuations in his tone. .

Then when the girl raised her head and stared at him angrily, she changed the topic: "But I can help Ms. Zhenbi start it, but I need Miss Zhenbi to pay a little reward."

Makae Riko looked at the man's inorganic black eyes, as if bewitched, and asked, "What reward?"

The man grinned, showing his white teeth, with a ferocious smile like a ghost returning from hell, and he said, "Your one-year lifespan."

Makabe Chiyo finally persuaded Makae Riko to come in after all the talking, and then she found medicine to wipe her daughter's wound. When she saw the countless bruises and abrasions on Makae Riko's body, she was already shocked and speechless Come.

"Tell your mother honestly, did you get bullied at school?" Chiyo Makabe asked seriously. In the past, there would always be some small bruises on Riko Makabe's body. Chiyo Makabe asked Makae Riko in the past. It wasn't that he was bullied at school, but he was beaten and fooled by Makabe Eriko.She and her husband also went to the school and asked the teachers if their daughter was being bullied at school, but the teachers said there was no such thing, and after repeated requests from the couple, the teachers insisted that this would not happen. matter.

Now it seems that it was just that Riko Makabe didn't want them to worry.

But Makae Riko still just shook her head and said: "No one bullies me, mom, don't worry." Then she snuggled into Makabe Chiyo's arms with infinite nostalgia, her mother's embrace was as soft and warm as ever, she sniffed the familiar sweetness of her mother Xiang felt extremely at ease.

Riko Makabe left her mother's arms. Looking at her mother's face with delicate makeup, she suddenly remembered the purpose of her trip, but she couldn't ask rashly, she could only ask insincerely: "Mom, are you going out?" ?”

"Well, just go out and do something, and Eriko just stay at home." Makabe Chiyo gently stroked her beloved daughter's hair and smiled softly, "Waiting for Mom and Dad to come back."

Eriko Makabe jumped up immediately, she grabbed Chiyo Makabe's arm, and almost begged, "Don't go, please, stay with me."

Makabe Chiyo touched Makae Riko's sad eyes, and her heart trembled. She felt that Makae Riko seemed to have noticed something, so she could only compromise: "Okay, sit down first, and I'll call your father in."

"I'll go with you!" Riko Makabe was still worried, she was afraid that they would leave her directly.

With Makabe Chiyo's explanation, Makabe Kenichi no longer wondered why Makabe Eriko came home suddenly, then he parked the car he just rented from the rental company, and followed his wife and daughter back to the house.

"Father, don't you and mom go anywhere today, okay?" Makabe Riko didn't wait for Makabe Ken to speak, and directly expressed her request, no matter what, they couldn't just let them die like this.

She looked at the electronic clock on the wall, and the time showed 11:10, 50 minutes before the accident, as long as she persisted a little longer.

"Eriko, don't mess around, my mother and I have something to do, and it's not like we won't be back." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Makabe Eriko burst into tears.

"But I can't watch you die!"

"What nonsense are you kidding?!"

No matter how Riko Mabe explained, her parents didn't believe her words.

Yes, going back to history and traveling through time and space is a plot only in movies, how could there be such absurd things in reality.

"Are you too tired, child?" Makabe Chiyo put his arms around the crying Makabe Riko, "Have you forgotten what your mother told you?"

"Even if you have nothing, you can't think about dying."

In the hardest time, when she was harassed by debt collectors day and night, when the whole family was frightened, her mother still told her this.

How could such an optimistic and strong person commit suicide?
