I’m drowning, and from now on
, in front of
me is Qi Shi’s tall and straight back, with silver buttons shining in the light on the edge of his dark uniform.
Originally the mood because Qi Shi is quite relaxed, all of a sudden by this news into the dark.
My fingertips trembled slightly and I blinked to make sure I was right. Kill target is Qi Shi? Countdown 1 minute?
Just a few seconds, the brain quickly turned to think about the meaning of this sentence.
“Qi Shi..” I pulled him over to look, and he glanced at me, then quickly looked at me with a sharp expression. The moment we looked at each other, we both realized what was going to happen next.
Although we don’t want to face such a tense and uneasy situation, the intuition born in the danger of living for a long time forces us to face the facts quickly.
By now, almost 30 seconds have passed.
“Run!” The moment the voice burst out of my throat, even I was startled, almost a subconscious reaction without thinking. As soon
as he said he would run, Qi Shi and I took a step and began to run. The corner is at the end, and when you get to the stairs, you can run to the lobby. When I
ran to the corner, Qi Shi suddenly grabbed my arm and pulled me back with lightning speed.
Almost at the same time, a sharp solid with a strong wind passed in front of me. Then it hit the wall with a crisp crash.
It was a bullet, but no sound was heard before. It should have been silenced.
The five-minute hunting game has begun.
Qi Shi covered me and hid behind the wall. He quickly pulled out the gun on his waist and gave me one. After
I was kidnapped, Qi Shi had given me special training to teach me how to use guns and other weapons, including some fighting skills. I didn’t think it might come in handy at the chief’s house.
“Why do you have two guns?” I asked in a low voice.
Qi Shi raised his eyebrows, his tone was calm, and he even made a few jokes: “Is this the point?” The corners of
his mouth were raised, and his whole body exuded the aura of a battle-tested top killer, which was cold and confident. Damn, it’s always at this time that I find this man unusually handsome.
He motioned for me not to move, leaned out and fired quickly, and then there was a sound of heavy objects hitting the ground.
Qi Shi nodded, and I ran up with him. At the corner, three or four men in masks and uniforms were lying down.
At the same time, more people came from the front and back, almost surrounding us.
It was clearly the chief residence with tight security, but there were so many unidentified people wearing masks that it was hard to say whether they had the chief’s permission behind them.
In short, the chief is either a bird of a feather with Zhao Ye or a puppet. When the
situation was on the verge of breaking out, Qi Shi pursued the principle of striking first and opened up a bloody road.
While Qi Shi is dealing with the masked man in front, someone in the rear wants to get rid of Qi Shi. I was so worried that I shot subconsciously, but I didn’t expect to hit the man’s arm accurately, which led to a cry of pain. As soon as
I was stunned, the man next to me noticed this side and pointed the gun at me, but did not shoot immediately. But Qi Shi also solved the front person, quickly solved these several people.
No time to think about the hands actually really stained with blood, will not kill a person, there are more and more pursuers behind, must leave as soon as possible. Qi Shi and
I were running fast in the corridor. I looked at the communicator. Less than three minutes had passed.
Suddenly glancing at the blue words beside the door of the room next to me, I had a brainwave, unscrewed the door handle, pulled Qi Shi and ran in, locked the door with my backhand.
The rooms are large with very little space for people. Apart from a small part of the ground in front of us, there is a large swaying blue water wave in front of us, like a swimming pool with infinite vertical distance, which makes the interior like a dream.
This appears to be the top of the azure gallery seen earlier, with an interior “ocean view” below, surrounded by high walls of glass. Usually the staff may feed from here and go in to clean up.
And look into the water, inside the shadow, with the water waves shaking and fish swimming, can not see clearly. If I remember correctly, I have seen similar coral and rock landscapes before. The
message indicates that the duration is five minutes. Anyway, it should be safe to avoid these five minutes. There was a rustle of footsteps
outside the door, or perhaps there was no sound, just a hallucination caused by too much tension in the brain.
I had a brainwave and said to Qi, “Let’s jump.” Two minutes
to go, and you may be able to avoid the pursuers with the help of obstacles in the water. And even if we were found, it would be very difficult to accurately shoot objects in the water because of the refraction of light. It can take two minutes at any rate.
Said to jump, I pulled Qi to jump down, but did not notice Qi’s stagnant expression when I spoke. After
jumping down, the fish around us were startled and quickly swam around.
Qi Shi blinked his eyes, his dark hair swayed in the water, and the whole person was particularly refreshing against the blue water. For a moment, there was an illusion of taking underwater portraits of beautiful men.
Qi Shi frowned and opened his mouth to spit out a string of bubbles. I was so frightened that I immediately covered his mouth and motioned him to hold his breath. He looked
around and found a colorful coral-like object behind him. I pulled Qi Shi to swim over there, trying to hide behind the shadow of the object. The
water was unusually quiet, isolated from outside sounds. But you can also hear the sound of underwater, the sound of water waves, the sound of fish swimming.
Then there was Qi Shi in front of him, a quiet, drifting handsome man, with blue and white water shaking on him.
This feeling is very wonderful, as if the whole world is only me and Qi Shi. And some nervous fish swimming around. From the
surface of the world came the sound of metal clashing, and then the sound of human footsteps. Looking up, it seems that you can see black shadows. Did
the damn thing get found out? How long has it been? It should be almost a minute.
Being underwater is like coming to another dimension of time, and as you hold your breath longer, the length of experience increases exponentially every second.
Qi Shi, on the other hand, looked like his face was tangled together, as if it were very painful. In other words, he just looked very uncomfortable. Can’t this guy swim?
I shook my head and motioned to him to insist that it would be over in a while. But his face became more and more ferocious, and he shook his head painfully at me, as if he could not hold on any longer.
He finally could not help but open his mouth, spit out a lot of bubbles, the whole person is almost a wilting seaweed.
Seeing that the time should be coming soon, we can’t be found at this time. I
don’t know where the inspiration came from, so I touched Qi Shi’s face and blocked his mouth.
And Qi Shi stared at me in an incredible way.
55
that moment actually did not think too much, just want to give Qi Shidu a breath to let him hold on for another ten seconds. But I didn’t feel incredible until I put it on. The
weak struggle came to an abrupt end.
Qi Shi is like a robot without power, floating motionless in the water. Only the broken hair was left to sway silently with the waves. The
blue and white light of the water hit his face, and his dark eyes looked wet in the water, a little more misty, and at a loss. The
usually proud and unrestrained demon God suddenly turned into a child who was at a loss after being shown kindness.
And I only have the touch of Qi Shi’s lips in my mind.
Qi Shi’s lips are very soft and cold, but when you feel them carefully, you can feel the burning temperature from your lips. The
blue artificial sea water floats between our mouths and noses, and even if we don’t breathe, every pore seems to be able to feel the salty smell.
It is like stepping on the dense foam on the windy seaside and falling into the gentle waves with your lover.
I looked at Qi Shi.
He was motionless, and if it weren’t for the occasional flutter of eyelashes, he might have thought he was a down robot.
But there are too many things in those eyes, such as shock, confusion, confusion, and even something similar to vulnerability. It makes one’s heart tremble.
When I kissed him, did he feel as incredible as I did? Will you be as nervous as I am? Will you be bumping into the deer in your heart? What does it feel like for him when his lips touch? Is it also the brilliant fireworks in your mind, and is it also the sudden fall into the soft water waves? Is it the same for him that I feel so intensely at
this moment?
It may only be a few seconds, but in a flash of lightning, countless thoughts have flashed through my mind. And countless thoughts, all about Qi Shi.
Although on the surface, we are still just floating quietly in the water, so quiet that only the murmur of the waves swaying.
But I’m sure I heard someone’s heart beating wildly.
I am sure that everything I feel now is the same for Qi Shi.
Soon, there was a rustling sound of footsteps at the top of the water, and the shadow left with it. Qi Shi and I separated and dragged him to the surface. With
two clatters, Qi Shi and I surfaced and collapsed on the ground like a narrow escape, gasping for breath.
I looked at the communicator. There was more than one minute left before diving, and now there are only more than thirty seconds left. It seems that we have been in the water for tens of seconds. Every day is like a year. Fortunately, I was good at swimming before, and I had a little ability to hold my breath. The
room was empty, and those people probably didn’t want to waste time, so they went to other places to look for it.
Qi Shi covered his chest and looked pale.
Wet broken hair stuck to the forehead, constantly flowing down, eyelashes drooping, like a delicate beauty who had just been saved from drowning.
“How are you, all right?” I gasped.
Qi Shi looked up at me, his eyes were stimulated by the water, and he looked red. He took a long breath before he slowly recovered.
See I want to laugh a little, has always looked omnipotent Qi, who would have thought in swimming is actually a small white.
His eyes were red, his ears were red, and he seemed to have some. Nervous? I can’t help laughing. Are
you still thinking about what happened just now? It doesn’t mean anything. It’s something you have to do in an urgent situation. You can understand it as a simple physical touch, which is no different from shaking hands and hugging.
I spoke quickly to deny and explain, and my eyes were a little uncertain, but I was also very nervous.
Qi Shi did not speak, but looked at me steadily, his eyes became deep little by little, and seemed to be restored to the cold and proud killer.
That.. I really didn’t do it on purpose. It’s just hard to see you. If I don’t do something, I’m afraid you’ll die. I continued to explain awkwardly.
“I think I’m drowning.” I heard his slow, deep voice ringing in the room surrounded by water.
“From now on.” It’s
over. I’m over. I seem to understand roughly what he means, and it seems that even with me. Drowned.
Drowning in something that can make a proud and unrestrained demon God suddenly become a child at a loss, and that can make an omnipotent person vulnerable.
‘OK.. “”. ” My face turned red, and when I turned my head away from looking at Qi, it seemed to be a steaming teapot.
/ (/)/Drowning, but damn it, this guy hasn’t officially confessed to me yet.
But that’s not the point now. Today’s point is to get out of the door of the chief home alive.
Go, go? Go home.
I straightened up and left the pink bubbles behind and held out my hand to Qi Shi. Qi Shi reaches out his hand to hold it, and the moment he holds it in his palm, there is a sense of stability in grasping the indispensable things in life.
There are also some things that are shy and unspeakable.
Fortunately, Zhao Ye’s group of people abide by the rules of the game, saying that five minutes is five minutes. So when we walked out of the room, it was clear all the way, and we quickly went downstairs and arrived at the door. The
two men, wet as if they had been fished out of the water, walked out of the chief’s house with cold steps and haughty expressions.
And the guards at the door, as always, were expressionless. They probably turned a blind eye to anything that happened in such a mansion, as long as it had nothing to do with their duties.
Even if you become a drowned rat, you still have to walk out of the proud posture. So Qi Shi and I did not look like we had just escaped a chase, but walked through a show.
Zhao Ye this group of people should not be with Qi Shi what deep hatred, just want to kill him. Can’t wait to launch a time-limited game in the chief’s home, which is specially made for me to see.
“At that time, they used you as a target to let me know my weight and make an early decision.”
Take Qi Shi as an example, let me know that I am weak, it is impossible to retreat completely, only to show weakness is a wise choice. I see
this very clearly, and so does Qi Shi. “What do you think?”
I smiled coldly and heard my own gloomy tone: “I didn’t intend to listen to them in the first place, but now that I’m making such a fuss, I’m going to refuse even more.”
In fact, they did not immediately make a decision that would not waver, but when they went to move Qi, they saw me fight with them.
Qi is Qi, but we still have to come up with a reasonable way to get away. I went home like a
drowned rat. Although I looked more aggressive on the surface, in Qiao Chen’s eyes, his sister looked like she had been destroyed.
He frowned and, without saying a word, pulled me to the sofa. At the same time, he looked at Qi coldly and told him and the others to go down. Everyone
else went down, but Qi Shi did not move at all. On the contrary, as soon as the corners of his mouth were raised, he almost rolled his eyes and wrote which onion you were on his face.
“Well, go and clean up first.” I motioned with my eyes, and Qi Shi quickly realized what I meant.
It’s time to have a serious chat with Qiao Chen about this negotiation and my choice.
Qiao Chen found a heavy towel and put it on me. The towels were large and thick, covering the top of the head to the thighs. He stood behind me and began to gently wipe my hair with a towel.
In fact, the hair is almost dry, I want to come back and take a bath quickly, but now it is not good to refuse Qiao Chen’s occasional brother-sister relationship, so I still numbly wipe it with him.
Qiao Chen’s strength is just right, neither too light to wipe the moisture attached to the hair, nor too hard to pull the hair. Neither of us spoke, and the lights at night were deliberately soft, and the atmosphere seemed a little tender.
“Have they wronged you?” Qiao Chen’s voice was still as gentle as ever, and inexplicably more than a trace of coldness, probably blaming Zhao Ye for their ignorance of the current affairs. Instead of asking if the conversation was going well,
he focused directly on the fact that I was wet. Presumably he also thought that things could not go wrong with him, but that those people had done something unpleasant in the process.
“If I say I have been wronged, what will my brother do?” The movement on
Qiao Chen’s hand stagnated for half a second, and then continued to wipe it as if nothing had happened.
“Will my brother help me teach those people a lesson, or will he pretend that he doesn’t know anything about it and let it go?”
Qiao Chen wiped patiently for a few minutes and stopped, and his hair was almost finished.
Sisi, you know the purpose of this communication. The most important thing is to make the other person give up the goal of you, as long as the goal is achieved, it is successful. I am sorry that there was some unpleasantness in the process.
“If I can bear it any longer, I’ll find a way to deal with Chao Yeh and the others, but I still need to wait and find the right time.” Qiao Chen explained in a low voice, as if he were comforting his sister in other ways.
“But this communication was not successful.” I sighed. “I’m going. They gave me a choice. I can choose to shut up and be Miss Joe quietly, or I can disobey them and go on to be the next target of the game.”. They said it was because I was the sister of Director Qiao that I had the chance to negotiate. Did
you already know? Did you already know what the negotiations were about? And then you let me go? How do you want me to choose?
Qiao Chen was silent for a moment, and his voice was a little tired. “Si Si, it’s just an expedient measure.”. I’ll deal with Chao Ye for the time being, and in the long run I’ll find a way to get rid of those people.
He did not admit but did not deny, presumably even if they do not know the details, but also guessed what kind of plan Zhao Ye they will give. Either shut up and acquiesce, or stand against them and fight against them. Are these people in Area like this.
What if I say no? To shut up is to acquiesce in the continuation of the game. It has already come to this point. It has already been exposed once. Now the whistleblower is going to compromise with them..?
I can’t do it. You can’t bow down to them, and you can’t watch others go through this again.
Zhao Ye this group of people took great pains, first engaged in what the gold version of the series, and then under the guise of providing reconciliation opportunities, not to eradicate dissidents so simple.
They want to make dissenters submit, bow their heads before them, surrender their dignity and bottom line, and become their kind.
“Wait..” Qiao Chen does not face my problem directly, just let me wait.
Perhaps the problem is not with Chao Yeh and others at all, but with the extreme hierarchical division of Area and Area ABC. Anyone who is in such a position of being able to do whatever he wants and having one hand over the sky is likely to do the worst thing.
“Shut up.” Qiao Chen quickly interrupted me and walked up to me, looking down at me coldly.
Do you know what you’re talking about? Never say such a thing again, especially in front of anyone outside.
“Don’t be an enemy of Area A. Don’t ever think of it.” What
if there is such an idea? What will happen if you become an enemy of Area a?
“Will die.” Qiao Chen’s answer was concise and clear. He stared down at me as if there was an unfathomable whirlpool in his eyes.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the misty warmth that had just wiped his hair suddenly disappeared.
Qiao Chen’s expression was so grim that he had never even seen him so serious. On weekdays, he always wears an elusive smile, like a tiger who seems docile after rest, but may show his claws at any time.
But now, there is a kind of solemn feeling of encountering something more vicious.
If you are an enemy of Area A, even I can’t protect you. Don’t do anything stupid. Sisi, be patient for a while, and I will give you an explanation.
You are my sister, and I will always protect you. But when even I can’t protect you, I want you to be safe.
Qiao Chen first warned, then softened his tone to appease him. First a stick and then a candy, the stakes are clear.
「……」
In the end, I didn’t argue any more, but my feelings were a little complicated. Qiao Chen is still Qiao Chen after all, or the kind of person on the top floor of Area A.
He can spend some time and even do a lot of things for his sister, but he can’t let others destroy the interests of Area a, because that’s also his interests.
If one day you have to make a choice, how will Qiao Chen choose.
Thinking about these things, I didn’t fall asleep in the middle of the night. I got up to go to the living room to pour a glass of water. I was startled by a figure when I opened the door.
“Qi Shi?” I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Why are you here?”
As soon as I opened my mouth, I found something wrong with Qi Shi. His eyes were a little confused, and his face was unusually red, even in the dim light at night. “What’s wrong with you?”
Before he could reply, Qi Shi fell down towards me and was caught by me. I reached for his forehead and found it terribly hot.
Is this a fever?
My first reaction is no, no, Qi Shi will also have a fever? According to his physical quality, it is reasonable to say that these minor illnesses and disasters will not befall him. But now, Qi Shi is like a kelp. The feeling of
being hit by Qi Shi is like catching a heavy discus. The discus was still warm, and it was terribly hot.
He was still in his pajamas, and I don’t know how long he had been standing at the door, and whether he suddenly felt uncomfortable in the middle of his sleep.
“How long have you been standing at the door? Why haven’t you knocked?” I helped him to the bed to lie down and asked with a little amusement.
“Mmm.” He closed his eyes and gave a dull hum, a heavy nasal sound that sounded painful and funny.
“When did you start feeling sick?”
「…… After taking a bath. Qi Shi answered in a weak tone, buttoning the following buttons lazily, revealing a pale Adam’s apple, looking like a sickly noble son.
I used the thermometry meter to measure Qi Shi’s body temperature, and my heart kept murmuring.
We both soaked in the water, but he had an accident because of his stronger physical quality. He was not stimulated by the underwater incident, was he? I always blush when I think of it.
Being so noisy, there is little sleepiness left that is better than nothing. The
temperature showed 38.9 ° C, which made me confused. Burn so badly, won’t burn the child silly?
I took out the medicine and made it into a soup. I brought it over and handed it to him. “Get up and drink the medicine.”
Qi Shi closed his eyes and did not speak, but the slightly shaking eyelashes revealed that the guy was conscious.
“Get up and drink. If you keep burning, you’ll burn yourself silly.”
He simply turned his head and moved the quilt up a little to cover his face. He looked at
me and laughed. This man was occupying my big, fragrant, soft bed, and he was “grumpy” and refused to take the medicine. Did he want to be coaxed by this young lady?
I quickly lifted the quilt: “It’s not bitter. You should have no taste now. You can’t drink it.”
Qi Shi continued to pretend to be dead, and I asked with a smile, “If I don’t drink the medicine again, I’ll force it mouth to mouth.”
His eyelashes trembled even more, but he remained motionless and serene, as if he were ready to say, “Come and destroy me, don’t pity me because I am a flower.”.
Do his spring and autumn dream, I hot hand to destroy flowers, directly lifted Qi Shi from the bed to let him lean on, and then pinched his mouth on the forced irrigation.
Qi Shi frowned and finally opened his eyes. His pale face was full of sorrow. “I’ll do it myself.”
This time he finished the medicine in one breath, and then lay down wearing a mask of pain, as if it was a great torture to let the medicine stay in his mouth for one more second.
(_) Why is this guy acting like a spoiled child? Yes, it’s a little cute.
I still remember that I was kidnapped as a player in an abandoned house before. At that time, Qi Shi was injured and would deal with it without expression. Even though he was seriously injured and tottering, he stubbornly explained the way to treat him without a hum.
But now, he is acting like a spoiled child because of a high fever.
Perhaps it is not that Qi Shi’s tolerance has changed, but that he has regarded me as a trustworthy object, an object that can act like a spoiled child?
Looking at Qi lying quietly in the warm light, his heart settled down inexplicably. Just because of Zhao Ye’s depressed mood, it magically disappeared.
I found an ice bag and put it on Qi Shi’s head.
He immediately opened his eyes and looked at me. His dark eyes were like those of a bear in the forest who was not familiar with the world. They had lost the indifference of the past and were more confused and innocent.
“How do you feel now?”
“Suffering.”
“After taking the medicine and sleeping, you should be fine. Go to sleep.”
“Um..” “I’m not comfortable. I can’t sleep.” He hummed in a second tone. What should I do if I can’t
sleep? I’m mostly faking it. I’ll be fine after a beating.
Wrong. Again. If you can’t sleep, just chat with him, which makes me full of energy now.
When Chiao Chen said that he could compromise for the time being, he thought it was an expedient measure. But will be very unwilling to bow to that group of people. Qi Shi, why do I feel that sometimes here, it’s better to be free when I’m in Area C with you?
Said it was a chat, but basically I was reading it, and then Qi Shi would say “hum” between my words to show that he was listening.
Sometimes I still think of the days in the abandoned house. It’s funny, isn’t it? But I think of lying inside doing nothing, just looking at the clouds outside, and watching SpongeBob SquarePants with you.
“Ahem, it’s not that. It’s the cartoon you watch most often.”
“It seemed like it was a good day when you didn’t have to think about anything. Of course, at that time you were still very worried about whether you would die.”
“Although I know that the freedom of being abandoned is meaningless, occasionally there is always a feeling of wanting to escape.”
Qi Shih chimed in with a gossamer air: “It’s easy to get cranky when you’re too tired.”
He stretched out his hand with difficulty and clapped it at his side. “Lie down and rest.”
Perhaps Qi Shi’s appearance is not 0.1% aggressive, so I will express my feelings in this exciting night. In fact, I know it’s just an occasional complaint, but it’s so reassuring to have such a person listening to your thoughts. There was nothing he could do
in this way, so I lifted the quilt on the other side and climbed into bed. After a
pause, Qi Shi suddenly said, “Sometimes people question their own decisions, but I’m here, and I can see it very clearly from my side.”. So there is no need to hesitate. I will support you.
Then he said nothing and seemed to fall asleep. I stared at his side face for a long time, and finally whispered good night. Half an hour later, I took Qi Shi’s temperature and found that it had returned to 37.8 ° C. I also closed my eyes with peace of mind. As soon as I opened my eyes
in the morning, I was facing Qi Shi’s enlarged face.
He was looking at me intently, half of his face glimmering in the morning light, quiet and beautiful. We were only about two or three centimeters apart, and we could feel his gentle breathing.
I stared at him for more than ten seconds, and my dizzy head gradually came to my senses. Qi Shi had a fever
last night. I let him lie down here, and then I fell asleep. So now in front of this sideways face to face with me when Qi, is a real person?!
I swished back tactically, pulled away from him, and felt something was wrong. What
on earth is there to be embarrassed about? It’s not that we haven’t “slept” together before. Anyway, it’s just a simple sleep. =
“How are you now? Are you better?”
“Better, but not all.” Qi Shi’s voice is still a little weak.
“It’s normal. If you have a good rest today, you should be all right.”
We were talking balabala, and suddenly Qiao Chen’s voice came from outside the door. “Sisi, haven’t you got up yet?” I
was so excited that I shouted outside, “I’m going to sleep for a while. Today is the weekend. I don’t have to go to work!”
Yes, you heard it right. It’s like this. I’m still in the class of the Urban Construction Department.
Afraid that Qiao Chen came in to see, I also specially climbed over Qi Shi’s body to the side of the bed near the door, kicked Qi Shi in, and lifted the quilt up to cover him.
The action is very fast, and it is done in a flash of lightning.
I have something to do and will be back later. Don’t go out today. It’s not safe outside until you make a decision. Have a good rest at home. Qiao Chen’s exhortation came faintly through the door.
“Okay, I’ll think about it.” Listening to the sound outside far away, my hanging breath finally came out.
Then I lifted the quilt and found that Qi Shi had closed his eyes. “Hey, are you all right?”
No, I can shrink in bed for a long time when I watch horror movies. Is Qi Shi’s vital capacity really so low? This is not scientific.
I shook him in panic and was suddenly dragged into the quilt by him. The quilt was a little dark, and Qi Shi’s face could be seen slightly through the gap. Hearing and smell were magnified in an instant, and the breath of Qi Shi was all in front of him.
Are you sleepy? Would you like to sleep a little longer?
His voice was still a little low after the fever subsided, and it sounded in the dark bed, like a 360 degree subwoofer, which made me tingle all over.
It seems that many times in the late night of my girlhood, I curled up in bed and listened to music with headphones, and suddenly I heard a song that amazed me. Accompanied by the voice of the lead singer, some of the restlessness of adolescence began to roar, fantasizing about what amazing people they would meet one day in the future.
The girl’s mood, which I thought would rarely appear again, seems to have begun to explode again and again recently.
I probably never thought that I would meet Qi Shi.
No need.. I’m not sleepy. I said sullenly, hiding the blush on my face by the darkness in the quilt.
Really not? You didn’t sleep much last night, did you? Qi Shi yawned, twisted and twisted to my side, and his breath was warmly entangled between my breath.
Ha ha, I think this person has recovered, and it can’t be better. Feeling guilty
, I threw back the quilt with a defiant roar: “What are you going to sleep for? Get up and work.”
There’s a lot of work to be done. I thought carefully about Zhao Ye and Qiao Chen’s words and had an idea in mind, but I still need to investigate the possibility of success.
58 Of course, the power tree
with Zhao Ye as the core is rotten to the bone, or perhaps the top of the whole a area is the same, but the surface still has to take into account one thing.
That is the legal and moral framework that holds the world together.
Despite sucking the blood of BC, there is still a conventional framework in Area A: human rights need to be guaranteed, fairness and justice on the surface, and so on.
For example, the living standard of citizens in Area is superior to that of citizens in Area BC, but anyone’s life is the bottom line; for example, residents in Area BC cannot move upward under common sense, but under certain circumstances, they can get the opportunity to join Area by virtue of their own talents and efforts. ABC adheres to this rule and maintains the balance of good operation in each district.
Simply speaking, it is the setting of this book. Well, at this moment, I was suddenly glad that I didn’t wear a book that set the bottom people either dead or disabled, which made the situation even more difficult.
So when Zhao Ye’s affair was exposed at the meeting, the people who had a good life expressed their shock. Although the chief is actually Zhao Ye’s team, Zhao Ye was demoted on the surface.
If we want Zhao Ye to stop, we may need to skillfully borrow a wider range of public opinion and public opinion. But in this way, it will really annoy the other side, and maybe it will break the net.
You have to think of a way out.
When I had begun to write and draw on the transparent panel and planned my retreat with Qi Shi, Qi Shi was still lying lazily in bed, thinking about what to eat today.
“What shall we have for lunch?”
“Little E, send me a copy of all the information in the no-man’s land..” Previously, Little E predicted that the escape to the no-man’s land was listed as one of the survival paths.
No man’s land is a vast and boundless desert, which is rarely mentioned in the original book, but has been mentioned in passing, saying that the hero first appeared in no man’s land. And I had inadvertently mentioned it to Qi Shi, and he was reluctant to mention the past. It is estimated that the living conditions
there are very bad, and there are no resources. Because of this, it is a good place that is relatively difficult to catch up with.
“How about these? Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs, braised pork in brown sauce, fried chicken legs, pig’s feet with salt and pepper..”
I’ve even been thinking about the packing list and what supplies I need to take if I really want to continue my escape.
“Well, you want to eat, too?” Qi Shi is still thinking about the food.
…… When
I turned to look at Qi, he was half leaning on the head of the bed, his face was still weak and pale, and he coughed twice when he saw me looking over.
“I’m still convalescing, so I have to eat better to make up for it.”
Qi Shi did not nod, but his eyes were full of acquiescence.
I laughed and said, “You’ve just had a fever. It’s not suitable for these big meat dishes. It’s better to be light.”. I think we should eat porridge at noon. Oh, no, you eat porridge. I’m fine as long as I’m normal.
Qi Shi did not speak, the atmosphere around seems to be more gloomy, as if there are countless Minions in the side pretending to cry sadly, looks funny. Wait, where does this inexplicable sense of picture come from!
All right, just eat, so he doesn’t have to think about & # x3D all the time. =
It’s also true that I haven’t been in the kitchen since the reunion in Area A. Although the dishes eaten every day are more exquisite, Qi Shi sometimes mentions the dishes he has cooked before. Will this guy miss the past? What does he miss when he misses it. It
‘s not my cooking, is it? O _ O
, “Eat, eat, okay?” I don’t have to worry about those big things any more, and I will have a rest this weekend.
At this time, the communicator suddenly rang, and when I opened it, I found that someone had sent a message on the office software. Who is so diligent on weekends? I have never seen a colleague who will work overtime on weekends in Area A. The person who
sent the message was a man named Bai Meng, who showed that the position was still in the Department of Science and Technology. I thought about it for a long time, but I didn’t remember where I knew such a person.
Bai Meng: hi beauty.
Me, mouth twitches:?? The second character of this
person’s name is very rare. I looked it up and found that the pronunciation is the same as “day.”. Bai Meng, Bai Meng, I read it several times and felt vaguely that something was wrong. Daydream?
Bai Meng: Guess who I am? In
connection with this sentence, I am more and more sure of my guess. I quickly opened the otherworld version of dark net and sent a message to our three-person chat group. Lack of sleep
every day:??
Colorful white: I found it so soon, Jiong. I also want to make a bet with you, and if I don’t guess correctly, I will ask you for some conditions. Lack of sleep
every day: What do you want? 453 No.
453：……
Colorful White: Oh, it’s been discovered. Lack of sleep
every day: Someone said he wanted to be free before, but he refused to come to Area A. Do I remember correctly?
Some kind of clear sound rose and fell in the minds of the three of us, and it was the sound of a slap in the face.
Colorful white: Cough, the world is impermanent, and people’s ideas must be changing. For example, 453 used to have a good relationship with me, and then he only cared about you. Hey, I really feel bad, do you know? 453 This heartbreaker. Speaking
of 453, Xiaobai can really talk about it for a whole day. Is this the friendship between men? = Lack of sleep
every day: Really? How good is the relationship with you? Why doesn’t it look like it.
Colorful White: When 453 was not famous, I had already discovered his potential and often chatted with him. A hero cherishes a hero. It’s a pity that he refused to meet him after many appointments. When
I glanced faintly at Qi on the bed, he replied quickly.
453: Please leave this group chat if you want to create something out of nothing and add oil and vinegar. At the end of the
bullshit session, Xiaobai explained that he still wanted to come to Area to see it, not to prove his strength because there was no need to prove it, but to see how Area designed Eva.
Eva has condensed the painstaking efforts of all the staff of the Science and Technology Department into a huge and complex management system, which manages the operation of the world.
If Eva is destroyed, the operation of the whole district will also be affected, most of the existing rules will be suspended, and people’s lives will be thrown into chaos.
So the top computer experts are here to keep an eye on Eva and fix any bugs that appear.
Colorful White: Of course, don’t get me wrong, I don’t miss 453 and his partner or anything. So when we make an appointment for dinner and so on, someone has to do the friendship of the host.
Small white to Qi Shi’s teasing stem, afraid is never able to get rid of it.
“Leave him alone.” Qi Shi directly grabbed my communicator, shut down the software and threw away the communicator at one go. “It’s not easy to be just the two of us. We should do something meaningful.”
Qi Shi looked at my eyes very seriously, and there was only one pair of eyes on his pale face.
I stared back at him and suddenly blushed. What is the meaningful thing that two people can do. But according to my understanding of Qi Shi, it’s not a proposal like “Come, come and lie here and watch XXXX together.”.
But before he could say it, he was interrupted by a phone call, and Su Xin happily asked me to go out and play with him.
“Sorry, I can’t do it today. Qi Shi is sick and I have to watch him. How about staying with you next week?” Are you
sick? What’s the matter, are you all right? Su Xin on the other end of the phone was very surprised, and there was an inexplicable jump in her tone.
Then she seemed to say a few happy words to the side, and then said proudly, “It’s all right if you don’t come. We can go there!”! Let’s go to your house to visit. Just wait. “
Come quickly and hang up quickly. Hang up the phone. Qi Shi and I looked at each other.”. This is the end of a wonderful weekend. The
balcony was open, and the half-drawn white gauze could not hide the continuous green landscape of the skyscrapers outside the house, which was blown in by the breeze from one end to the other, like a strong wind blowing white sails. The dress of
the boudoir group is floating in the wind, the hair that has been carefully handled is also fluttering in the wind, and the smile on her face is more light. They sat grinning at the head of the bed, chirping around Qi Shi, who was leaning on the bed.
It seems that everything is floating in the wind, only the balloons moored in midair around the origin of Qi Shi. Rare ease and leisure.
“It turns out that Qi Shi can also get sick. I always thought Qi Shi was the omnipotent patron saint.” Su Xin seems to have seen something new, come in already around this topic more than three times to emphasize her shock.
“Ah, it’s just Sisi’s patron saint.” Speaking of this, her tone seemed to be somewhat melancholy. But what the hell is a patron saint..
“Man is iron and rice is steel. At this time, you should eat something delicious to make up for it.”
Everyone relaxed and chatted, all the unbridled happiness between the little sisters.
“By the way, when you and Sisi were in Area B, who was cooking..” Su Xin bad smile incarnation gossip goddess, a small mouth as if smeared with oil. They already know a lot about the past of Qi Shi and
me (although they have added oil and vinegar), but they are still very interested in the details. Su Xin, in particular, has never stopped “torturing” Qi Shi and me.
While they were talking vigorously, I began to bring up another topic: “Don’t you think I’m nosy about the recent exposure of Chao Yeh?”
How can it be meddlesome? It’s clearly doing harm to the people. That kind of scum has done such a disgusting thing, and it’s cheap to demote him. Su Xin was very angry, and the sisters next to her were all filled with indignation.
I casually made eye contact with Han Cheng-cheng, who was smiling and staring at me as if she had a deep meaning: “Some things are meddlesome, but things that involve the bottom line are different.” Again,
I confirmed my observation. During this period, I collected a lot of public opinion information and got a general understanding of the attitude of ordinary citizens in Area towards society: rights are different, but life is the bottom line. And through the question to your little sister, this point has been verified again. The next step is how to use this to end the game.
“Don’t worry about Chao Yeh. If he makes any more trouble, we’ll be your backers!” Su Xin patted her chest heroically, as if she were very heroic, but more like a serious little white rabbit, which made people want to ravage her.
But Han Chengcheng leaned close to my ear and whispered something that only I could hear clearly: “Just stop here. Don’t continue to put yourself in it.”. Personal suggestion, without moral considerations.
Before he could ask, Han Chengcheng had already retreated and continued to hug another sister as a pillow, looking as if nothing had happened.
「…… It’s almost noon, Sisi. Let’s cook. Su Xin’s eyes glowed, and the other sisters clapped their hands in praise. Just when Qi said something about my cooking in the past, I heard people move their index fingers, and somehow, I was finally driven to the kitchen to cook.
The little sisters gathered around the kitchen, looked at this pot and that pot, touched all kinds of bottles and cans, and volunteered that they had contracted here today. The maid at home looked shocked and said how could we do it, and then they drove us down.
As a result. The
dish was poured into the pot and jumped out of the oil star, and Sister A jumped two meters away.
A fish was alive and kicking, and Sister B was afraid to step forward with a kitchen knife.
Facing the bright red meat, Sister C covered her mouth and looked for gloves in disgust.
As soon as I took care of A, there was an accident on B’s side. As a result, C began to ask for help. In the
kitchen, chickens fly and dogs jump, screaming one after another. It’s not like emmm people are here to help, it’s like they’re here to tear down the house.
Ah, why does the sweat run down my forehead? It is because my sisters love me deeply.
Even Qi Shi came over in his pajamas and slippers, saying that he wanted to help, and that he wanted to show his hands. Reveal what, an obscure broth of lumps of meat and vegetables? =
“All right, all right, all of you are grandfathers. Go down and wait until you open your mouth to eat.” In the end, I drove all the noisy people down to drink tea, leaving only the seemingly reliable Han Chengcheng.
Then she glanced around, glanced at her fingers, which she had never touched, and walked away in high heels. “I’m sorry, but I’m not very interested.”
…… Work does not do, join in the fun are top-notch!
However, this kind of excitement seems to be very good, and I can’t help smiling.
Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs, braised pork, fried chicken legs, salt and pepper pig’s feet.. When the dishes that Qi Shi had been thinking about for a long time were brought to the table, his eyes were shining, his whole body was full of energy, and he could not see the appearance of the patient at all.
He quickly stretched out his chopsticks, and when he reached the third piece of ribs, I stopped him with my chopsticks and said, “Brother, you’re not ready yet. Don’t eat so much greasy food all at once.”
Qi Shi sighed painfully, took back his chopsticks and turned to pick up other dishes.
Su Hsin and the others giggled. “Sisi is Qi Shi’s nemesis.” I have black lines
all over my face, and this person is my nemesis.
“What can I say? These dishes don’t look as elaborate as the chef’s, but they do taste great.”
No, I think Sisi can compete with the chef! When you go to the competition, I will definitely vote for you! Su Xin is not stingy to praise, listen to people very useful. Talking and laughing at the
dinner table, it was very lively. I don’t know when it will be the next time we get together so easily and leisurely.
I contacted Zhao Ye and said that I was willing to choose the wise way. “Congratulations, Miss Chiao. I knew you were a smart person.”
I cooperated to reply a few words, showing sincerity as much as possible, and dispelling Zhao Ye’s guard.
Yield? It is impossible to yield, but on the surface, we can try to uproot these people behind their backs.
I have shot a video in the name of Joss, and I will publish it in Area at the right time, exposing the behavior of Zhao Ye and this group of people to the whole vision of Area a, so that the people in Area can judge them.
Under the monstrous public opinion, someone must give a certain explanation.
“So, Miss Jo, we’re having a party at the Chief’s tomorrow night. Would you like to come?”
No, I think you know what I mean. I don’t want to play hardball with you, so I choose the wiser way, but I’m really not interested in participating in your game. You can just pretend I don’t exist. Let’s not disturb each other and be well.
Chao Yeh sighed hypocritically, “That’s really a pity. After all, Lucy really wants you to go there.”. I’m just playing with him. I don’t have to do anything else.
I was silent, and the little figure of Lucie came to my mind, like a little prince on the planet who had watched the sunset 44 times.
“What time?” Before coming to the grand mansion of the chief
once again, everything has already changed.
Located on the top floor of a building with more than 100 floors, overlooking the whole a area, there is a kind of pleasure of sitting on the world. The low-key and brilliant architecture is wonderful, stripped of the shell but decayed to the extreme inside.
Like a seemingly bright and beautiful whirlpool, when you go in and get beautiful things, you are also selling other things you cherish to the devil. Behind the
elegant dark solid wood table, Lucy, dressed in a black dress, with a shirt carefully carved with fussy lace, was sitting on a chair shaking his legs like a proud prince.
Lucie was in the study, and now he was sitting in the chair that represented power.
If I remember correctly, I was led to the door of the study that night, and the faint whine I heard in the darkness, the golden flash in the darkness, probably originated in this position. It makes the whole house feel uncomfortable.
“Here comes my sister.” A cheerful voice came out of Lucie’s throat, with the unique crispness of youth, as beautiful as morning dew.
Lucy sat on the chair and shook half a circle, half of his body facing the magnificent scenery of the French window: “Look, how beautiful the scenery is, how shocking it is.”
“My sister has made a wiser choice. I’m really happy. I can see my sister more often in the future.”
He jumped down from his chair and came to me in a light and playful way. “I have a lot of things I want to do with my sister.”
He leaned close to an exhibit on a nearby cabinet and said, “This sculpture is my favorite. Sister, don’t you think it’s very unique?”
It was an unidentified object half man and half beast, with a congealed red liquid in the corner of his eyes, and it was not clear whether it was tears or blood, which was the only bright color on the white body. I opened my mouth and didn’t know how to comment.
And Lucy didn’t care, pulling me around excitedly. He enjoyed talking about half of the decorations in
the study, big and small.
Even the study is connected to the bookcase next door, where books are connected from the corner to the roof, and countless books are placed on the shelves, waiting for the occasional visitor.
No one patronizes it, only Lucie.
“Sister, do you know that even if I read one book here every day, I won’t be able to finish it all in my life.”
Sister, do you like reading? Well, it doesn’t matter if you don’t like it. There are many places here. Do you want to go to the garden or see the blue? There’s also a cinema where we can watch movies all day long!
His chirping tone was full of joy, like a child who proudly displayed everything he liked. No, at this age, he is actually a child.
I seemed to understand why he wanted me to play with him, because it was less lonely than walking through the house alone.
But I’m not really interested.
What’s the matter, sister? Aren’t you happy? Is it because I didn’t let your bodyguard in?
Qi Shi was stopped in the hall on the grounds that Lucy only wanted me to play with him alone. That’s part of the reason why I’m a little anxious. Although I’ve dealt with it, it’s hard to guarantee that they won’t do anything more to Qi Shi. “I’m sorry, because I really want to play alone with my sister, and I don’t want to be disturbed by others,
” Lucie said innocently. My sister’s bodyguards are very powerful, but they always distract her attention.
I smiled and said, “It’s good that Lucy is happy. You’ve taken care of everything this afternoon.”
But my attention is really not here, and I often look at the gate.
“Is my sister looking for the chief uncle?”
Yes, there is a blind spot just now, that is, why is the chief missing? And Lucie, who knows everything here, seems to be the real owner of the mansion.
“He’s supposed to be in the playroom with the others.” Lucy’s tone was casual. “Don’t worry about the trash. Let’s just have a good time.”
Rubbish..? I was somewhat stunned as to why Lucie was able to so naturally call the Chief and others trash.
And my heart is also more and more uneasy, from come in to now that kind of uneasiness gradually intense, Lu Xi’s words is to bring this kind of uneasiness to a high point.
Yeah, what are they if not trash? It’s just that they were born here, and the rest are complete waste from head to body.
Lucy sneered cruelly, but quickly put on her innocent face. “Don’t be afraid, sister. They won’t hurt you, as long as I don’t like it.”. Uncle Garbage listens to me the most, and they have to listen to Uncle Garbage.
The most innocent expression, saying the most weird words. But gradually, it confirmed the guess in my heart. A very dark guess.
I opened my mouth, but I couldn’t say anything. Where to start, what role does Lucy play, and what is the relationship with the chief? Is Lucy “controlling” the chief in her own way? The
answer is already clear, as bizarre as anything seen recently. I’m not even surprised anymore. Everything is probably normal here. Is
my sister scared? I don’t think so. My sister is smart and capable. That’s why I like you.
I think my sister must understand me. Sister, as long as you want, we can get everything we want, standing here, overlooking everything below. The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his eyes sparkled.
Lucie.. Did you participate in the design of the game? I finally opened my mouth and asked a question that I had always cared about.
“Yes.” Lucie admitted it as naturally as if she had had lunch.
“Why?”
They love excitement, blood and screaming, darkness and struggle. Only by the stimulation of those things can we feel the vividness of existence. Then I will give them a little more to enrich these ideas, and let them go on walking dead. When he
said this, there was no guilt or fear on Lucy’s face, as if it was not a living person who was dragged to participate, but a virtual entertainment.
Probably seeing the complexity of my eyes, Lucy added, “Sister, you are still a little soft-hearted. You should not have suffered a real crime.”. As long as you have been there and endured the unbearable nausea, you will understand that everything is so indifferent.
I was silent. There was something
in Lucie, a dead spirit that had no interest in life, and an unconscious hatred that wanted to destroy everything around him. Including himself.
The exchange was brief and shocking, and then I stayed with Lucy on the soft carpet and read picture books with him for two hours. My heart is so confused that I can’t read it. In
fairy tales, there are countries full of flowers, princes and princesses, talking cats and rabbits, and Lucy looks at them carefully, asking childish questions from time to time. In a certain way of acting,
he pretended that what he had experienced did not exist and felt a moment of silence. Before she
left, Lucy suddenly said, “My sister is different.”
If it was my sister before, would she scold me and persuade me? But I didn’t say anything today.
“If you’re unhappy, you can refuse. You don’t have to force yourself. Come back when you’re willing to play.” His voice could not tell whether he was happy or dissatisfied, and his figure looked very lonely in the huge room. It was night when
I came out of the top floor, and the sky was covered with a bright crescent moon, and the stars around me were dim.
As the glider slid down rapidly and senselessly, Qi Shihe experienced a short and long fall.
“What’s the matter with you, coming out with such a heavy heart?” Qi Shi lightly glanced at me, he is always like this, can easily see my mood.
You.. Have you ever seen a man who wants to destroy himself?
When the pain exceeds a certain threshold, you may not be able to bear it and want to destroy yourself. The people we saw in Area C are living a hard life, and Xiaoxi is still holding the hope that the future will be better. I know that everyone feels pain to a different degree, but under what circumstances do you want to destroy yourself?
“There is no point in hoping when you have suffered what could not be worse.” Qi Shi hit the nail on the head and said what I wanted to say, with sharp and calm eyes.
This night, there is a vague idea in the heart gradually grew into a prototype. Only a world in which
no one suffers the worst is worth living in. Maybe I don’t know how to reach it yet, but it has become a small goal buried in my heart.
. Focus on not getting lost ~
