What sound was that?

”Tick—”

It appeared again.

Mubai's face changed instantly. He slammed down on the breaks, opened the door and leaped over the seat to charge at Xinghe in one smooth motion—

As he lurched at her, Xinghe heard another ticking sound. After that was a deafening explosion. Xinghe felt her eyes burn from the blinding light. The last thing she saw before the world of brightness swallowed her were Mubai's eyes, filled with determination.

Other than the sensation of their bodies being flung away by an indescribable force, she felt nothing else. After all, one who had lost consciousness would have felt nothing. It was just like death, no pain and no senses.

However, for Xinghe, it was different. Even in endless darkness, she felt her heart ache. Her heart was like being pricked by a sharp object. She felt herself scooting away from the source of pain. She was enveloped by dread.

However, someone seemed to call her name repeatedly from somewhere far away.

Xinghe, Xinghe…

The soft voice was gentle and mellifluous like a man calling his lover. His lover? Is that me? But who is this 'he'?

Xinghe's consciousness slowly gathered itself. Finally, she remembered; the 'he' was Xi Mubai. Xinghe did her best to locate the source of his voice, but it was to no avail. Xi Mubai, where are you?

Xinghe, I'm leaving… I'm sorry, I wouldn't be able to accompany you anymore…

Leaving, where was he going?
