Chapter 40: Retreat
After finishing the silent recitation, Mo Yuan blinked in response, and the corners of his mouth wanted to squeeze out some smiles, but failed.
Xiaolan closed her eyes with satisfaction, the calm sea of blood, reflecting her pale and tired face, dyed with a few faint flushes, the corners of her mouth with blood stains, the smile that she had barely maintained before, finally stretched out naturally, she opened her arms, let her body, facing the sea of blood, fall, fall.
The moment it touched the sea, there were no fluctuations, no ripples in the sea of blood, and it accepted her so gently, as if it should have been integrated.
Her nose, her mouth, her eyes, her ears, little by little, disappeared into the water, until her entire body disappeared without a trace.
Mo Yuan's reason, at that moment, was quietly taken away.
-
"Hey, Mo Yuan, you're a man who hates bitter drinks, sitting in a cafΓ©, it's really funny. β
"I think our understanding of the definition of 'singing' is a bit skewed. β
"Let's not talk about that, let me enjoy the night sky in front of me for a while, and I always feel that I will never have a chance to appreciate it again. β
"Ha, with your partner, it is unknown whether I can be promoted to deputy team leader. β
"Rather than a partner, I'd rather treat you as the only ...... since we met at the academy Friends ......"
-
The flow of time, the chaos, the scattered memories, then or now.
Mo Yuan's eyes widened, wanting to see more clearlyβhe wanted to remember her long black hair, but saw it gradually yellowing and withering, he wanted to remember her clear eyes, but saw it gradually drying up, he wanted to remember her provocative and mocking occasional but gentle and fragile expression, but he saw it gradually stiffen and dim.
The sight that fell on Xiaolan's face trembled uncontrollably, and in an instant, the overflowing heat blurred Xiaolan in her eyes, blurred the red sky and the red sea.
-
Cold tears, shining with cold light, floated up the corners of their eyes.
In front of Mo Yuan, the black and endless calm sea water suddenly swirled, and gradually, the whirlpool loomed, gentle and deep.
Home.
He, falling in, disappeared.
"Something is unusual. Yue said.
"Yes, there are some discrepancies. "Wisdom looks at the whirlpool that is gradually calming down, under the starry sky, on the sea, there is nothing.
-
"Boom-"
The door to the restaurant was blown open.
"Order you, give up all resistance, you have no way out!"
"Cut, people are dead before they dare to rush in. "A low, hoarse, disdainful voice.
"It's going to be a boring escape again", the woman put on her veil again, but she couldn't hide her cold voice, and her resolute but gentle eyes, "When I go back, I will report truthfully." β
"Heh," a deep, hoarse voice said, "You can go back, thanks to me, and you know, there are devices that can incapacitate people in an instant." β
The woman's eyes were stunned.
"Although you have miracles, I still can't be sure if you can stand it, so ......", a low, hoarse voice, "At first, they were alive, maybe they were thinking about the safety of the hostages, and the security guards were still worried, but now, only the unconscious customers remained......"
"Thank you", the woman stood up, nodded solemnly to the man, and looked down at Mo Yuan and Xiaolan who had already fallen on the table, the bullet penetrated their hearts from behind, and in just a moment, life was over, clean and neat, "But dead people, there is no value to bring back." β
"The corpse, disassembled, can't it be used?"
"Retreat. The cold voice refused to answer.
Sound.
A violent sound suddenly exploded from a distance behind the woman.
Super high-rise buildings, special multi-layer tempered glass, shattered in response to the sound, turned into powder.
In an instant, a strong air pressure difference and a strong wind suddenly rose, throwing out the tables and chairs near the window.
The woman stood steadily, the wind ruffling her veil.
"They, run! Stop them!"
"Interesting", a man sneered, staring at the surveillance screen, "The turbulence formed by the air flow between super high-rise buildings is not so easy to deal with. β
The waiters standing all over the restaurant, suddenly, like puppets on the line, effortlessly picked up the customers who were sitting beside them unconscious, blocked them in front of them, and swarmed towards the blasted open door.
"Let's go!" said in a deep, hoarse voice.
The woman watched him run towards her, and as soon as her eyes made contact, she was cold and composed, and then she passed over herself and ran towards the place where the explosion had occurred before.
The woman turned around and followed, hesitated for a moment, then looked back at Mo Yuan again - the tablecloth was snow-white, dazzling red, and Mo Yuan who fell in it, he opened his eyes, unwilling, regretful, painful.
She thought over and closed his eyes.
"Let's go!" said in a deep, hoarse voice.
"Good. She looked away, hiding her tenderness, and there was only determination in her eyes.
-
"How's the deal going?"
"The deal will be done in a different way. β
"Hmm. β
"Also, there was a long-running deal that was half done and the other half, for their own reasons, couldn't be done. β
"Oh, that's good news. β
