Chapter 381 Thank goodness, she's still alive
Having also heard this, Song Juexiao turned his head to look at Jiang Xingni's expression.
The reasons why Jiang Xingni wanted to reveal the truth have been a topic of much discussion over the years.
Initially, most people thought Jiang Xingni was an antisocial element who revealed the whole thing in order to interfere with social stability.
Although those who know Jiang Xingni are fully aware that these are all nonsense, it is difficult for them to stand up and defend Jiang Xingni.
—They themselves are also superhumans. If they stand up, it may cause the public to have a negative attitude towards superhumans. Neither the 49th Bureau nor Taixu Academy will allow them to stand up and defend Jiang Xingni.
Even now, they have discovered that after the truth was revealed to the public, social order has not been disrupted, more and more people with superpowers have awakened, people with superpowers no longer need to hide their identities, and people with superpowers who die because of the supernatural can also become martyrs and be honored.
Jiang Xingni's reputation gradually improved, and many people were willing to refute the rumors about her antisocial personality, lamenting how miserable she was, saying that even in death she was still being attacked by these marketing accounts.
Jiang Xingni looked back with a blank expression.
Song Juexiao once again realized that he had forgotten Jiang Xingni and that she remembered nothing at all.
What were the reasons for doing these things in the past? What were you thinking when you were facing death? Why did you want to reveal the truth about superpowered individuals to the public? Jiang Xingni had already forgotten.
The brief sadness passed quickly, and Song Juexiao quickly adjusted his mindset—after all, Jiang Xingni is still alive, just suffering from amnesia, which is not a big deal.
With Xie Yungui's prophecy, she will return sooner or later; she will remember everything sooner or later.
"So..." Jiang Xingni pondered, then leaned closer to Xie Yungui and whispered, "Is the reason I have to take so many general education courses related to the supernatural because of my past self?"
Xie Yungui had noticed Jiang Xingni's subtle movements as he leaned closer. He didn't show any reaction on the surface, but he had already pricked up his ears, quietly listening to what Jiang Xingni wanted to say—and then he heard this sentence.
Xie Yungui really didn't expect Jiang Xingni's first reaction to this.
"...Back then, you probably never imagined you'd be back to go to university now." Xie Yungui turned her head, glanced at Jiang Xingni lightly, and smiled.
Who would have thought that Jiang Xingni's obsession wasn't with them, her superpowers, or the downtown area, but with a university she had never been to before?
But on second thought, it's actually quite normal.
Regardless of the supernatural abilities in the lower city or the supernatural beings themselves, they were all extraordinary beings, and there was no trace of them in Jiang Xingni's original life plan.
If given the chance, she would probably want to experience the life of an ordinary person, instead of rushing around because of some superpower or monster, and even risking her life for it.
"Or rather, at that time you never even thought that you would actually be resurrected." Xie Yungui thought for a moment and corrected himself.
Jiang Xingni expressed doubt: "Am I really that... a saint?"
She thought for a while, not knowing what words to use to describe the self that Xie Yungui described, and finally chose the word "Holy Mother".
She felt that Xie Yungui's image was too heavily influenced by her; Jiang Xingni didn't think of herself as someone so righteous and willing to sacrifice herself for others.
According to Jiang Xingni's own understanding, it's probably because this option requires less sacrifice compared to others?
...That sounds even worse.
Death is an option where you choose the lesser of two evils.
The children on their study tour did not linger long at Jiang Xingni's grave.
Several children pushed and shoved each other, but as they were about to leave, they finally mustered up the courage to push out a representative. The representative went to Jiang Xingni's tombstone and stuffed all the candy in their hands onto the grave.
Without saying a word, he hurriedly ran off and caught up with his teacher and classmates.
After they left, Jiang Xingni followed Song Juexiao and Xie Yungui to his tombstone.
The tombstone clearly displays Jiang Xingni's name, his birth and death dates, and finally, his epitaph.
"I have fought the good fight."
I have run the longest race I could.
I have kept the faith I have believed in.
From this day forward, the crown of righteousness is reserved for me.
Jiang Xing stared at the line of text for a while.
She spoke softly, "I'm not religious."
—Who wrote a quote from the Bible on her epitaph?!
Jiang Xingni disagreed with this.
But she gazed at her own tombstone.
It's rare for a normal person to have such an opportunity: to see how others will remember them after they die while they are still alive, and what will be on their grave—a few bouquets of flowers, a few pieces of candy.
The sky was clear, and the wind swayed the still-fresh petals gently. Jiang Xingni lightly touched the flower in front of her, then unwrapped the candy and ate it herself.
Seeing the looks in the eyes of the people around her, Jiang Xingni tilted her head and smiled, "Since it's a gift for me, there shouldn't be any problem if I just eat it now, right?"
Xie Yungui smiled and said, "Of course, you can eat whatever you want."
Anyway, no one will stop you over something so trivial.
Song Juexiao looked at the candy and asked curiously, "Do you like this kind of candy? I'll give you some next time."
It's not that I like candy. Jiang Xing thought to himself.
Suddenly, the sound of wind came from behind.
Even faster than Jiang Xingni's actions were Song Juexiao and Xie Yungui's reactions. The two of them realized that someone was walking in this direction the moment Xu Niannian approached, and they were relieved when they saw Xu Niannian's face.
"Xingxing, Jiang Xingni... Jiang Xingni!" Xu Niannian's voice grew louder and louder from muttering to almost shouting.
She rushed over and threw herself into Jiang Xingni's arms.
"I missed you so much, I missed you so much." She sobbed uncontrollably. Xu Niannian didn't know what to say. A flood of thoughts suddenly rushed through her mind. "You're back. I missed you so much. I thought I'd never see you again. I was almost forgetting your face, what should I do?"
Sure enough, her earlier thought that she and Jiang Xingni would gradually drift apart was correct. With such a high-risk profession, could she really not feel anxious because of Jiang Xingni?
If Jiang Xingni were to come back to life again, wouldn't she feel bored, or that her feelings had been deceived?
But when Xu Niannian held Jiang Xingni in her arms, all those thoughts had vanished, leaving only one thought—this is wonderful.
Jiang Xingni is still alive.
