I found my sister under a wooden board in my parents' room.

This is a basement that has been dug for a long time. I think my parents must have been waiting for this day for a long time.

Sensing someone's arrival, my sister weakly said,

"Mother, I'm dying of thirst."

When I handed the cup to my sister, she visibly startled.

She stared at me blankly for a while and suddenly burst into tears.

"Are you satisfied now?"

She screamed, and her voice echoed throughout the basement.

"Our parents don't love me. They only see me as a medicinal tool to save you! Are you satisfied now?"

I squatted down and stared at my sister for a long time.

She had become much thinner, and being locked up here for a few days had made her paler than before.

More importantly, she had become extremely weak.

Just as Mother had said, she and I had exchanged lives, and her life had already started to fade away.

My sister looked a bit frightened as I stared at her, stuttering and asking what I was doing.

I said, "Li Wang, you've been spoiled since you were little. You're willful and capricious, always doing things according to your own desires without considering others."

My sister, "......"

Her expression changed from anger, confusion, and blankness to realization, and finally back to anger.

She glared at me with gritted teeth and asked, "Did you come here just to tell me this?"

I shook my head.

"What I mean is, you're not dumb."

My sister froze for a moment.

"You said those things to Mother and hit me to provoke her. If I'm not mistaken, you were willingly locked up here, and you voluntarily drank the medicine. You planned all of this on purpose."

My sister looked at me blankly.

"You also deliberately drew a line between us and intentionally said those things to me."

I became somewhat anxious, "What exactly do you want to do? Don't you want to live anymore?"

My sister blinked her eyes, tears welling up and falling down with a pattering sound.

"I'm sorry."

My sister started crying convulsively, "It's not intentional, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

I didn't understand why she was apologizing to me.

Clearly, I had taken her life, so why was she apologizing to me?

I hurriedly asked her, "Did you already know? When did you find out, and what else do you know?"

My sister didn't answer me. She continued talking to herself, "I can't live anymore. Mother said that once our lives started to exchange, they couldn't be stopped."

"Brother, I'm about to die."

"I can't go on living."

I felt like I was standing in front of a puzzle.

I spent more than ten years to finally uncover this puzzle.

But after this puzzle was solved, it contained another puzzle.

This puzzle was hidden in Li Wang's heart, and I might never know it in this lifetime.

My sister cried and laughed again.

When she smiled, her already scarce flesh and skin tightly adhered to her bones, looking extremely terrifying.

"Brother, I have a wish, and only you can help me now."
