"Qing Chen, as a fellow Time Walker, I've seriously studied you. As far as I know, the Parent's Association is not an organization that abuses violence, and neither are you," Marquis Winston said, seated beneath white lights as he examined the grim gray metal walls around him. "Before this, I didn't even consider you a threat in the Outer World. But I was wrong."
Qing Chen was silent for a moment before saying, "In life, there are always choices to make. Every person may be equal, but the lives of those I care about are indeed more important to me than yours."
"I understand," Winston said. "I really did become a Time Walker long ago."
"Good. Being honest will save us a lot of trouble," Qing Chen said.
Marquis Winston sat in the interrogation room, the ghastly white light falling across his face. "So I have no choice now? I have to cooperate with you against the Kingdom of Roosevelt?"
"Yes," Qing Chen said. "But I don't think you need to be so depressed. Once we succeed, you'll be one of the heroes too."
Marquis Winston gave a bitter smile. "What are you going to use to defeat the Kingdom of Roosevelt? Forgive my bluntness, but even if you join forces with the Giant Dynasty, it won't amount to much. Once they leave the Forbidden Forest, they won't be very useful in modern warfare. I need your promise that even if you fail, you won't expose my identity."
Qing Chen shook his head. "You'd better sincerely pray that we win. We're all passengers on the same boat now. If we fail, I'll hand every one of you over."
Marquis Winston: "..."
Qing Chen smiled. "Don't worry. We'll definitely succeed."
"What do you intend to use me for?" Marquis Winston asked
