I returned to that desolate ruin.
Once, it was our safe haven from danger.
Now, it feels more like a resting place for my soul.
The night wind swept through the dilapidated iron gate, bringing a chilling bite.
Darkness consumed everything.
Only the moonlight barely filtered through the cracks in the window, casting mottled patches of light.
The iron gate creaked, like a ghostly whisper.
Guo Weifeng's voice shattered the silence.
"Yaqi, I know you’re still here."
His voice was low, as if afraid to disturb something.
I slowly materialized.
My translucent form appeared ethereal and fleeting in the moonlight.
Complex emotions surged within me.
A comrade who fought by my side.
Now, he had become the one to bid me farewell.
"Guo Weifeng."
My voice was as light as a sigh.
"How did you know I would be here?"
He gave a wry smile.
"This place... is where we shared the most experiences together."
His gaze wandered over every corner of the room.
"I think, if you were still here, you would definitely come back to this place."
He paused, a hint of nostalgia in his voice.
"Every time we faced danger, we would hide here."
"This place holds special meaning for us."
His words pierced my heart like a needle.
I am still here.
But I no longer belong here.
"Thank you."
I lowered my head.
My transparent hands seemed like they could vanish at any moment.
"If it weren't for you, I might never have completed my revenge."
"And I wouldn't have been able to seek justice for the victims."
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
"You not only helped me find Corpse, but also protected me time and again in danger."
"You stood by me to fight against those bad people."
"Don't say that."
He stepped closer, his gaze resolute.
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to dismantle that criminal organization."
"We accomplished this together."
"You used your strength to intimidate those villains."
"Only by exposing their flaws could we succeed."
His words were sincere and warm.
Yet they made me feel even more lost.
"But now, I don't know where to go."
My voice trembled.
My body was becoming increasingly transparent.
"Yaqi, you have completed your mission."
His tone was gentle yet firm.
"Those victims can finally start their lives anew because of your efforts."
"And you should let go of everything now."
He looked out the window.
"Look, those who were once imprisoned have now been reborn."
"They will live well with hope, and that is all thanks to you."
Let go?
My heart had long been consumed by hatred.
All that remained was emptiness.
What else could I let go of?
"But..."
I closed my eyes.
A surge of indescribable emotions welled up in my chest.
"I still have so many things left undone."
"I still have so many regrets..."
"I can't bear to leave..."
"I haven't even had the chance to truly experience this world, and now I'm already supposed to go."
"I understand your reluctance."
His voice was deep and gentle.
"But you can't stay here forever."
"Those victims have been able to start anew because of your help."
"You should look forward as well."
"You have protected justice in your own way."
"That is already quite remarkable."
His gaze was tender, free of fear and distance.
It was as if he were looking at an ordinary person.
This made my heart ache.
Once, I thought I had been abandoned by the world.
Yet he looked at me with such eyes.
It made me feel that I still belonged to this world.
"Yaqi, do you know?"
He suddenly smiled, his tone lightening a bit.
"In fact, I've always admired you."
"You have courage, persistence, and strength."
"Perhaps you deserve a new life more than anyone else."
"In another world, you will no longer have pain or hatred."
"It will be very happy."
New life?
This word feels so foreign to me.
Tears blurred my vision.
If only I could start over.
I want to live a normal life.
I want a future free of hatred.
But now, that seems impossible.
I looked out the window.
Those who were once imprisoned stood in the sunlight.
Their faces wore smiles that had been absent for so long.
They were striving to readjust to this world.
This scene brought me comfort.
It also filled me with an unprecedented sense of relief.
"Guo Weifeng."
My voice carried an unusual seriousness.
"Promise me, you will continue to uphold justice from now on."
"Help ensure that more people are no longer harmed."
"And take good care of those victims."
"Help them truly step out of the shadows."
He paused for a moment, then nodded solemnly.
"I promise you, no matter what happens, I will do my utmost to uphold justice."
"I will pay attention to the lives of those victims and help them reintegrate into society."
"To ensure they are no longer harmed."
His promise warmed my heart.
I knew he was someone I could trust.
"That's good..."
My body grew increasingly transparent.
"Guo Weifeng, I am truly happy to have fought alongside you in the final moments of my life."
"Meeting you has been the luckiest thing in my tragic existence."
His eyes glistened with unshed tears.
His lips moved, but no words came out.
Moonlight bathed us, as if draping a silver veil over this scene of impending farewell.
I lifted my head, feeling the gentle moonlight.
It seemed to penetrate my spirit, reaching deep into my heart.
"Goodbye, Guo Weifeng."
I whispered, a faint smile gracing my lips.
"Goodbye... Yaqi."
His voice trembled.
He reached out, wanting to grasp me.
But he only held onto emptiness.
My body gradually faded away.
Everything around me became blurry.
I took one last look at this room filled with memories.
And at the person I trusted the most before me.
In that moment when my consciousness completely vanished,
I felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
All the pain and hatred dissipated into thin air.
In some corner of this world,
Those who were once imprisoned basked in the warm sunlight.
Their laughter rang out like silver bells, clear and bright.
It was a longing for a new life, filled with hope.
I knew their future was brimming with infinite possibilities.
And this was the beautiful ending I had earned with my life.
Perhaps, in another world,
I too would have my own rebirth.
A world without hatred, only love and warmth.
