Bella Risa looks at herself in the mirror, her make up remover, and she says, "Xiao Xiang, let me guess if someone was a great likeness of someone who died 1,000 years ago.

"Big Brother, do you think the Earth will always be so peaceful? How nice it will be if the Earth doesn't revive!" "Big Brother, in my next life, when you look for me, if you find a boy who likes to eat mulberries, that must be me." "Maybe you'll become a woman in your next life," Chu Xun chuckled and said.

Every day at lunchtime, I remember our moments together. Even here, a million miles away, she plagues me. Gianna! Maybe this is part of my penance; this suffering is worse than any death. It's like dying slowly, bit by bit every day—sort of like what I'd done to Felice and what I plan to do to the others.
