Chapter Twenty-Three: A Door
At night, the lights in the city are as bright and bright as usual, and Hitomi sits on his comfortable sofa, wearing a pair of glasses and looking intently at the PMT in his hand, and the lines of code on the projection screen flash quickly, like a rushing river, dazzling.
Suddenly, I could only hear a slight knock on the floor window of the living room, Hitomi was startled, and then quickly reacted, rolled her eyes coquettishly and stood up, walked to the window and opened the curtain, but saw Hugo standing on the eaves of the window and smirking at herself.
Hitomi opened the window and let in the cold breeze and Hugo, Hugo walked into the room and said, "The weather has been quite cold recently, and I can freeze to death on the way here." β
Ah Tong glared at the grinning Hugo and said: "Don't complain, who told you to come in through the window if you don't have to go? You deserve to freeze to death! You have to go to the door and change your shoes, the room I just cleaned is dirty by you." β
Hugo smiled, ran to the door of the room to change his slippers, and when he returned, Hitomi had already adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner in the room and started to make hot coffee for Hugo.
"Has the wind been tight lately?" Hitomi asked with concern, although she complained about Hugo's behavior of entering through the window, but she knew in her heart that Hugo would not be like this if it weren't for the special situation.
Hugo leaned lazily on the sofa, and then hugged a fat big dog doll in his arms and said: "It's okay, but the people of several forces are staring at me, although they are all watching from the wall, but when they reach a certain degree of tacit understanding, they may have to attack me. β
Ah Hitomi listened to Hugo's big words, a pair of beautiful eyebrows wrinkled a little tighter, Hugo is now facing the oppression of the situation she can understand, think that after Liu Zhengyi was imprisoned, many political forces or the media will focus on their brother and sister, during that period of time, Ah Hitomi can be said to be living like a year, and later if it wasn't for the moon god Hao secretly solved this time, I'm afraid Ah Hitomi's nightmare will last for a long time, but the relationship between the Liu family and the moon god family Liu Zhenmin has never revealed to Ah Hitomi, Liu Zhenmin doesn't want her sister to fall into the whirlpool of this struggleγ
Looking at Hitomi's solemn expression, Hugo thought she was worried and said: "Don't worry, I'm already one hundred and twenty careful when I go out this time, and at the same time, Mr. Hua has also found a few stand-ins for me, and they have helped me share a lot of attention. By the time I got here, I had already confirmed that there was no tail behind me, but if the other party really had a master who could make me unaware, there was no way to do it. β
Hitomi shook his head lightly and said, "Now your situation is very bad, and it is not a way to go on like this." β
Hugo shrugged his shoulders and said, "But now I can't do anything, after all, my legs are on them." At this time, the coffee was already brewed, and Hitomi poured two cups of steaming coffee and handed one of them to Hugo.
Hugo took a long sip of coffee in satisfaction, and then said to Hitomi: "Now I am most worried about you, since Dunk Island I have learned that they know me so well, it is completely outrageous. There is really no secret for a person to face the power organization under the state apparatus. After a pause, Hugo took another sip of coffee and praised: "The coffee is delicious." β
Hitomi looked at Hugo and smiled, "Fortunately, you have enough secrets, even if Tianying or the Templar are afraid it will take a long time to fully understand them." This sentence was really very intriguing, and Hugo paused slightly, but did not say anything.
Fortunately, Hitomi didn't mean to continue to ask, and just when Hugo wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, Hitomi suddenly said, "Have you seen my father?"
Hugo almost squirted out the coffee in his mouth, but he barely swallowed it and nodded. Hitomi looked at Hugo's strange reaction and asked, "Did something happen?"
"Well, of course not. Hugo hurriedly denied it.
Hitomi tilted her head and frowned, revealing an expression that you don't want to hide from me. Hugo knew that although Hitomi had not known him for the longest time, he knew him best, which even Hugo was very surprised.
Hugo put down the coffee cup in his hand and said, "I have met your father and heard some things. β
"Really? That's great. A look of surprise appeared in Atong's eyes when he heard this.
"My brother and I have met my father before, but we can't beat both of us, and my father is silent, so there is really no way. β
Hugo smiled and nodded, "It's natural, after all, he wants to protect the two of you." β
Hitomi nodded in understanding, and then said casually, "How did you get my father to believe in you and tell you everything?"
Hugo was immediately silent about this, this question was the most resistant to Hugo's heart, Ah Hitomi found that Hugo's reaction was wrong, shook his head and said: "If you can't say it, you don't have to say it." β
Hugo hesitated for a moment, then finally made up his mind and said, "I'm going to threaten your father with you." β
As soon as the words came out, the air in the room immediately condensed, and the whole room seemed to be in a vacuum.
After a while, the corners of Ah Hitomi's mouth barely showed a smile and said, "It's a good way, it's okay." β
Hugo looked at Hitomi and said seriously, "Hitomi, I'm sorry." I... The situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to think of a better way to get your father to believe me. β
Hitomi shook her head and said, "It's okay, after all, it's just... Threaten it, you haven't done anything again, it's really okay. But having said that, Hitomi's eyes were still rosy, and the crystal tears flickered through her eyes, which made her even more pitiful.
"Hitomi, I..." Hugo stood up and held Hitomi's hand, but Hitomi turned around and said, "I'm sorry, Hugo, I want to be alone first." β
After saying that, he rushed into his room, and Hugo flashed out to stop him, but Hitomi quickly closed the door and turned Hugo away with a "bang".
Hugo took a slap and hurriedly knocked on the door: "Hitomi, I'm sorry, please listen to my explanation, I..."
"Hugo, I really understand everything you've done, really! Would you please let me be quiet, okay?" Hitomi's almost begging voice came from behind the door, and Hugo was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
The room was quiet again, and the air was suffocating.
Hugo slowly turned around and sat down leaning against the door. On the other side of the door, Hitomi was also leaning against the door, and the two were close to each other, and there was only one door and one separation.
After a long time, Hugo sighed: "Hitomi, you say, is everything we did worth it?"
