Chapter 6: The Real World

There was nothing in the refrigerator, Gu Fangyan only found a tomato after rummaging through the cabinets for a long time, and the remaining half of the shallots cut yesterday.

How did you survive for so many days......

Fortunately, he took out Master Bao Kang's instant noodles from the kitchen cabinet, so he directly boiled water and put in the dough, poured various seasonings into it in an orderly manner, stirred it with chopsticks, and cut the only tomato into slices and added it by the way.

After taking the instant noodles into the bowl, the color was not bad, and he greedily inhaled the fragrance that reverberated in the air, and forced the instant noodles to the living room. "It's just instant noodles, so let's eat them on the spot. He carefully brought the instant noodles to Ling Chenxuan.

Ling Chenxuan looked at the steaming and fragrant instant noodles, and then looked at Gu Fangyan, who hung the corners of his eyes, and his gaze moved on the instant noodles.

Gu Fangyan's mind was full of the last pack, wow, wow......

"What about you?" he picked up his chopsticks with some hesitation.

"I have leftover rice bowls. Gu Fangyan weakly stretched out his finger and pointed to the lunch box on the coffee table that was about to fall off, and the plastic bag outside the lunch box had not been thrown away. "I'll take it ......hot," he said, hunching his shoulders as he lifted the plastic bag and stuffed it into the kitchen's microwave.

By the time they both sat on the sofa with chopsticks, it was almost ten o'clock. The room was quiet, the light rain was ticking on the window, and the room was filled with the rich aroma of Master Kong's instant noodles.

Gu Fangyan was really hungry and crazy, so he buried his head in eating, and gnawed on his rice bowl, which was not heated very thoroughly, and the rice was still warm inside. Ling Chenxuan was frightened by his arrogant momentum, and began to bury his head in instant noodles.

The atmosphere is quite harmonious, as if they are just a group of hard-working North Drifter teenagers, and they are all tired to death after a long day of running. The previous battles were just an illusion, and life was still so fucked-up and joyful.

Dinner was over in a hurry in less than five minutes, probably because he was in too much of a hurry, and Gu Fangyan felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach......

"Thank you. Ling Chenxuan arranged the chopsticks neatly and glanced up at him, "By the way, I don't know what your name is?"

Gu Fangyan patted his head, "Yes, look at my brain!" He scratched his hair, "My name is Gu Fangyan, the customer's Gu, Fangzheng, Yan are three fires." ”

Ling Chenxuan's eyes paused slightly, and he was silent for a few seconds, "There shouldn't be many people with the surname Gu, right?" he asked.

"Anyway, I'm the only one in our class whose surname is Gu. Gu Fangyan looked at him a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Ling Chenxuan shook his head slightly, "It's just curious." ”

The room was quiet again, Ling Chenxuan leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes, resting quietly like an old monk meditating.

Gu Fangyan's gaze was wavering and fidgeting, he looked at Ling Chenxuan and then at the ceiling above his head, then at the TV, and finally couldn't help but ask, "What's that...... Don't you have anything more to say to me?"

To be honest, he is still very uneasy, according to the normal development of the plot, Ling Chenxuan should not threaten him viciously, and he said that he must not tell the third person about today, otherwise he will gouge out your eyes, and then he said again, I will definitely swear to keep it a secret. In the end, they became people in the same boat, and no one could betray anyone.

It stands to reason that this should be the case, right......

But at this moment, Ling Chenxuan's face was as calm as the wind, and he closed his eyes quite relaxed, as if this home was originally shared by the two of them, and he just went out a long way, and now he finally went home.

"What do you mean?" Ling Chenxuan opened his eyes to look at him.

Gu Fangyan was a little stunned, thinking to himself, wow, big brother, do you want to be so calm, no matter whether the young man before was a human or a ghost, or if you killed someone, right?

"Don't bother me, you're still that young man...... Is it really okay if he just disappeared out of thin air?" Gu Fangyan said hesitantly.

"You seem to care about him?" Ling Chenxuan curled his eyebrows.

Gu Fangyan moved his mouth, he didn't say a word, he was really a little speechless, is it okay to be a killer and ask for a little professional, but respect his profession a little...... Anyone, as long as he has existed in this world, will definitely leave countless marks, even if he is a ghost lost in the world, there must be some things that cannot be easily rewritten or even erased.

"You can compare the city to a giant machine that is always working, and the people who live in the city are equivalent to different kinds of gears, and the importance of the gears depends on the value that the individual creates in this society, so each person's value is different, and the corresponding gears are also different. Ling Chenxuan stood up and said lightly: "A machine is often composed of countless gears, some gears are crucial and play a decisive role in the normal operation of the machine, while some gears are insignificant, even if something goes wrong, it will not affect the operation of the machine." ”

"Think about it, if you know that there is something wrong with one of your complex machines, but it doesn't affect the normal operation of the machine at all, do you choose to take the machine apart and find the problem or simply ignore it?"

He looked at Gu Fangyan quietly, like a high school politics teacher looking at an innocent student.

"Moreover, when a machine has been running for a long time, it is bound to produce some useless scum dirt, and no one cares about the existence of these dirts, because they are worthless. It's like a homeless man may freeze to death in some corner of the city right now, but what does his life or death have to do with you?"

"There are too many worthless people in this world, there are many homeless people, gangsters, and social scum in the margins and corners of the city, of course they have the right to live, but they can only wander in the boundless darkness and live meaninglessly, the world does not welcome them, and some people even hope that they will die soon. ”

"So you should understand why I call those ghosts the Lost, right?" Ling Chenxuan's face was neither happy nor sad, his eyes were as cold as snowy mountains on the horizon.

Gu Fangyan looked at him in a daze, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

And Ling Chenxuan's rather extreme and even extreme point of view, to be honest, he didn't understand it very well, how could it be meaningless? The homeless will also have the relatives of the homeless, and there are no pure good people and bad people in this world, should some people die if they have no value?

In this complicated world, even bad people will have people who want to protect or be protected, maybe they once had a kind of kindness, maybe they also wanted to be a good person for a few moments, but they were tricked by fate again and again, and ridiculed by the world. But who's to say that they are not strong enough, in life, they are just a group of desperate outlaws.

People always laugh at them for not finding a way out, but fucking give them a way.

He couldn't look at things from Ling Chenxuan's point of view, he was just an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary, and the latter was a killer with a long knife in his hand to face this cold world, perhaps in Ling Chenxuan's eyes, the law of the jungle was the eternal iron law of this world.

"If, I mean if...... Those lost ghosts also have friends that belong to them, if one of his good friends suddenly disappears, then he can't ignore it, right?" Gu Fangyan's voice was a little hoarse.

"If it is an ordinary person, it will naturally not be ignored, but if it disappears as a ghost, then all the details of that ghost that once existed in the memory of a human being will be quickly forgotten because of his demise, because he does not belong here, his existence is a loophole, and this loophole will naturally be repaired after death. Human beings will quickly forget everything about him, they will not remember who the stranger in the photo is who they took together, they will not remember who the stranger who has been eating and shopping with them all the time, and they will continue to live as if nothing had happened. ”

Some people say that human memory is actually like an unreliable computer disk, which has to receive countless information every day, and even the disk will age after a long time. No one cares how many strangers rub shoulders with them in a day, and some people can't even occupy even a tiny sector of a disk.

Ling Chenxuan sighed softly, "This is a good thing for each other, some memories, it is cruel to not forget." ”

"Everyone may have a blank memory, no matter how much they recall, they can't remember the content, and they don't even know the ending. Ling Chenxuan stared at Gu Fangyan coldly, his voice with an iceberg-like texture, "You have to re-examine this world, this world with exorcists and lost people. The world is not as glamorous and peaceful as it seems, and there will be killings, deaths and strife in unseen corners. ”
