This is not a parallel world, but a time travel in the same world.

After the shuttle, old Qiao's memory became blurred from the moment he escaped. Because Xiao Qiao lost the link and changed his life, he should no longer remember his life.

But Old Qiao must go to kill Yushi's mother to wake him up.

Therefore, the memory of Xu Qing probably didn't exist at the beginning. Old Qiao was flashed when he returned to the past, and he entered information such as Xu Qing. In order to wake up the rain caller, matrix arranged similar tasks for many people, that is, when they went back, they flashed their phones and asked them to go and kill the rain caller's mother.

But in the end, there must be a flashing shuttle to complete the task to activate the raincaller, so so many people keep coming back. . . .
