After Li Ming finished telling this story, he turned to look back at Gu Xi. "All these years, I never told you about this because..."
"I know." Gu Xi calmly interrupted him, meeting his gaze. "Ming, I feel the same way you do. That thing... I'm afraid it's no good."
Li Ming lowered his gaze. "Later, I also tried to sound out Miss Chen and her sister a few times, but they were very tight-lipped..." That was why, even now, Li Ming still didn't know why they suspected the object's appearance was connected to the start of the apocalypse.
Gu Xi, however, was reminded of something else.
"Ming, I remember that year, on a mission in the remote regions of the northwest, you asked me to destroy a meteorite, didn't you?" she asked, looking up at Li Ming.
Li Ming smiled. "So you remember?"
Gu Xi raised an eyebrow. "So that meteorite... was just a decoy?"
