After returning from Shadow City, I called Qian Qian and Older Sister over, saying that I had an important matter to discuss—by the way, I hadn't used that phrase wrong this time, had I?

Seeing how serious I looked, Older Sister could not help sighing. "A Jun, it looks like this trip to the Divine Realm really brought back quite a few shocking pieces of news. I already felt like you had something left unsaid earlier. Is this still related to that Abyss Gate in the Divine Realm?"

"No, this is a personal matter. Something from when we were kids." I thought for a moment. "Sis, do you remember about ten-odd years ago, the day you first told Qian Qian and me that we might be moving? Did anything unusual happen then?"

Logically speaking, something that had happened on some random day over a decade ago should have been impossible for an ordinary person to remember. But that day had been special: it was the first time Older Sister had brought up the possibility of us moving in the future. It was one of the few major events in my first twenty years of bland, uneventful life. I remembered it vividly, and Qian Qian and Older Sister should have retained some memory of it too, so I had been full of confidence when I asked.

"Ah, you suddenly asked about that?" Older Sister was clearly surprised by my question, but she still furrowed her brow and tried to recall it. "Things from over ten years ago really are hard to remember clearly, but I do remember something about the first time I mentioned moving... You and Qian Qian were both there that day, right? Qian Qian's parents had gone out, and she ate dinner at our house."
