Volume 1 The New Guest in the City Chapter 16 Eternal Loyalty

Giving a lifetime, or even a life, for a person is simple to talk about, but in reality, it can be a very difficult decision.

After all, you may not get anything, and you will end up destroying yourself.

"Sister...... You said...... Why are there always so many people who want to abandon those puppies, they are obviously very cute and loyal. The short-haired sister tugged at her sleeve, "Didn't you say that dogs are good friends of humans?"

My sister was silent, and when she saw those stray dogs, her heart fluctuated. Once, she would feel pity for them, but now, she will empathize with them.

"Because...... Puppies...... Need freedom......" the sister looked dumbfounded, "their owner...... I feel like I can't keep them locked anymore...... ......."

My sister said these words completely unintentionally, and she didn't know what she said, she just wanted to say an answer that made her sister feel better.

In the face of crisis, life always has an innate behavior, that is, to run away and to avoid.

But as a creature with complex thoughts, when faced with a crisis, we may be controlled by that reflex for a while, but some people will have some thoughts about it more or less after calming down.

Some people think that they should stand up and protect others, some people think that they are useless and that standing up is a free gift, and some people think that their lives are greater than anything else, and they will not get anything by helping others.

However, when a dog is in danger, it will run away immediately. But when they find that their master is also in danger, they will never hesitate, even if they are injured, they must rush to the master to protect their master.

Because they are so simple, they only know that they are their masters, and since he has done so much for me, I have to give everything for him.

In contrast, is the complex human mind in some ways degenerate? In the minds of white-haired girls, such thoughts often pop up.

Back to the abandoned dog, if time is pushed back again, now, the white-haired girl can feel the despair of being abandoned even more.

Betrayal, bullying, isolation, those are the shadows inside her, pushing her down the abyss step by step.

In her heart, there is always a sentence lingering - why when she is about to encounter danger or suffer, the first reaction of human beings is always to protect themselves first and abandon others.

Even herself, perhaps.

This is instinct, and it is also a common disease of human beings, because of it, countless lives have reluctantly left.

Arriving at a flower bed, the white-haired girl stopped running, and suddenly remembered what had happened. If people had not chosen to betray and compromise on that day, perhaps that disaster would not have come.

"Xiaoyu, are you alright?" a familiar voice came, but it aroused the vigilance of the white-haired girl.

In the mayor's office of Black Lake City, the mayor saw a man with a stack of file bags walk up to the desk and sit up straight and asked.

"Can you find out what happened in Guardian City?"

"Found the mayor, we went through it for a long time, and we just finished sorting it out. ”

In the mayor's office, the mayor flipped through some materials of Weidun City. These materials were compiled by the mayor for his subordinates as much as possible, and they included the history of Weidun City, ranging from various criminal cases to civil disputes.

In addition, there are all the materials that have been preserved before and after the natural disaster in Weidun City.

However, there are only a handful of such information, and this is the tip of the iceberg of natural disasters.

It can be said that this natural disaster is too powerful, and in ten minutes, a city that has flourished for hundreds of years has been reduced to ashes. The only remaining ruins are near an execution site.

And this is where the retained materials generally point to.

They don't know what's going on here, they can only speculate. One of the most likely is that as the legend of Guardian City legend, a natural disaster struck due to a failed execution.

Of course, this is just speculation, and it may not be the case.

"The last admin?" hiss......

The mayor looked at the mutilated piece of a file, frowned slightly, and just wanted to continue reading when he was stopped by Councilor Li.

"Mayor. Councillor Lee walked up to the mayor with a form.

"Huh, what's the matter?"

In response to Councilor Lee's words, the mayor put the file he had just seen in a conspicuous place, preparing to continue reading it later.

"The situation in the white-haired residential area has stabilized, and it seems that the screening process can be accelerated for the time being. ”

"Okay, approved. ”

After watching Councillor Lee leave, the mayor was about to continue looking at the mutilated file, however, as if it had grown legs, he found that the file could not be found.

The file was like an illusion, as if it never existed.

I really couldn't find it, so the mayor decided to let it go first and take a look at the other files. After looking at it for a few minutes, the mayor suddenly turned to a file that was badly burned, but almost half of it was successfully restored.

From the above, it can be seen that there was once a supernatural case in Weidun City, and there was a girl who was pushed to the forefront and was discussed by almost the whole city.

"She has the power to destroy the city at will......"

"I've seen her tear down a building with a wave of her hand......"

"She tore the man to shreds out of thin air, and the blood was still floating in mid-air......

"She's a monster ......"

"She's going to kill us one day......"

"She brought disaster, and the country wants her, and we must kill her......"

The mayor's eyelids trembled as he read the slightly strange text on the file. These are the words of the citizens of Weidun City, which were collected and recorded in the archives.

What the hell had she been through? Who had she killed, why did she destroy Guardian City? If Guardian City hadn't understood her, she wouldn't have done it.

"Are you real? Is it really Xiao Jing?"

In the sparsely populated alley, Nangong Yu met Xiao Jing again, but because he had just met a fake Xiao Jing, Nangong Yu was very vigilant.

"What nonsense are you talking about...... Yes...... I understand" Xiao Jing said and crossed her arms and smiled, her eyes suddenly filled with something, revealing a strange red.

After a while, Nangong Yu relieved himself. After calming down for half a second, Nangong Yu suddenly threw herself into Xiao Jing's arms at a cheetah-like speed, which made Xiao Jing stunned for a moment because she had never been so active.

"Little ...... How do you ......?"

"I'm so scared...... I'm almost worried I won't see you......"

"I see...... You've met a clone...... Don't worry, the Dead Country has not mass-produced clones, the clones in potential Black Lake City have almost been killed, and they are in the experimental stage......" Xiao Jing said and thought of something, "What did you do to that clone......

The air fell silent for a moment, and there was no sound for a long time.

"Hey...... Xiao Jing...... Looking at the way you are beaten......" Nangong Yu's tone was a little heavy.

"What's wrong?"

“...... I'm so cool. ”

"Eh, you......"

Saying such unfortunate words in that soft and warm voice like a marshmallow is indeed Nangong Yu's nature.

"Forget it...... It's rare for you to play a joke on me. Anyway, did you see the mayor? I was going to look for you at the riot, but I was dragged back by the people who died in the country. ”

"See, he's really looking for me. ”

"You're really not going to let him find you......? It seems to be in a hurry...... I mean, after you left your makeshift office in the white-haired neighborhood, our eyes were on it. ”

"I know. Nangong Yu's expression was a little wrong, "But they found me and told me that the game was going to start again." ”

He ...... Are they ready?"

"Maybe I'm halfway there...... The rest is the game part......"

In Nangong Yu's heart, there is a sentence at this moment, a test for Black Lake City: Can the people of Black Lake City survive this "game" safely?

As if to reflect the scene at this moment, a cool wind blew the fallen leaves, gently snuggling up to Nangong Yu's side.

"When I was wandering, I met a dog. Nangong Yu suddenly diverted the topic.

"Hmm, why did you say this all of a sudden......

"You say...... Why dogs are so loyal to their owners and decisively sacrifice their lives to protect their owners. But humans don't have to ......"

Xiao Jing was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then the corners of her mouth rose slightly and sneered.

"Because for a human being, a dog is just a part of his life. But for a dog, the owner is the whole of its life. ”

"Why can't human beings treat others as the whole of life......

"Yes, your sister is. ”

"Uh...... Never mind...... I'm starting to say inexplicable things again...... You don't hear it...... I'm a mess right now......"

When Nangong Yu was wandering, she once met a dog.

The dog looked pitifully at Nangong Yu, who had finally managed to get a few buns, she was originally a kind person, and when she saw such a dog, her heart fell into a struggle.

Eventually, she gave a bun to the dog, however, instead of eating it, the dog turned around and ran away.

Out of curiosity, Nangong Yu followed, and in the end, she saw a decadent man drinking against the wall, who seemed to have become like this because of some huge blow.

Maybe it was because it was hard for people to survive in those days, and he was drinking all the time, and he didn't have any other food around him - except the buns that the dog had brought in his mouth.

From the man's words to the dog, it can be seen that the man has given up on it because he has no money left to buy food.

Then the dog brought him food.

Knowing the dog's intentions, the man's tears poured out like a flood that burst the embankment, and he cried while holding the dog, talking to himself all the time, unable to calm down for a long time.

From his words, Nangong Yu can know that he was abandoned by his girlfriend, with no money, no love, no home, and only a poor dog.

This dog is the only one who will never abandon him, and this is its eternal loyalty to this man.

It is very simple, so simple that it is willing to give his life to the master, without thinking about his own gains and losses. Even in the end, they may die quietly in the cold wind.

Now Nangong Yu thought about it, those two-faced people are not worthy of being compared with a dog at all. Dogs are supposed to be a symbol of purity and loyalty, not a lowly animal.

"You're thinking of those people again, aren't you...... That's human...... Instinct...... Haha......" Xiao Jing crossed her waist.

"Very ironic instinct ......"

The cold wind blew again, and the leaves nestled next to Nangong Yu kept shaking, as if they were trying to comfort Nangong Yu in a panic.

After a long time, Xiao Jing patted Nangong Yu's shoulder confidently, and then hugged her with one hand: "You have to believe in them, the nature of human beings is definitely not evil." ”

"When you say that, I'm starting to feel like a heinous sinner again......"

In just a few seconds, Xiao Jing's smile dissipated unconsciously. She sighed suddenly, and her mood, which usually seemed optimistic and relaxed, became heavy.

"I hope you don't become the next him. ”

"Who?" Nangong Yu frowned.

Faced with Nangong Yu's question, Xiao Jing didn't intend to answer directly, but mentioned Shen Mengyun, whom Nangong Yu met not long ago.

"You know what? Since losing that man, even children like Shen Mengyun have become less confident in people. Until she met you, Shen Mengyun, she now takes you as the next sustenance, she has been on your side now, don't let her break her heart again, okay?"

Xiao Jing smiled again after speaking, then walked around behind Nangong Yu, lay on her back, put one hand around her neck, and poked her face with the other hand while continuing: "You must know that you are not alone, we are all on your side, and I believe that Black Lake City is also on your side." ”

Nangong Yu's words suddenly froze, and then tilted his head slightly: "Let me ...... first." Alone quietly ......"

At the end of the conversation, Xiao Jing nodded, left one last trusting gaze, and turned to leave.

There was another gust of wind, and the fallen leaves that were nestled next to Nangong Yu quietly left, and the sorrow that was entwining her temporarily let go of her hand and hid in the corner.

At this time, a soft and immature milk dog bark attracted Nangong Yu. The voice was right next to her, and looking down, a little brown teddy dog was looking at her. Seeing such a cute puppy up close, Nangong Yu couldn't help but squat down and gently touched its head.

"Puppy ...... Hey hey ......"

Judging from the name brand and the small clothes, it has an owner, but at this time, it is so close to Nangong Yu Station, and its owner may be nearby.

Wrong...... Maybe it's right next to her?

"Finally found you. ”

Sure enough, when Nangong Yu just thought of this, a man's voice came from behind him.

Nangong Yu was stunned for a moment, an invisible sense of oppression restrained her, and she suddenly felt a tightness in her heart. When she slowly raised her head and turned around, she was at a loss for what to do.

The time to come finally came, and after all the hardships, the mayor finally found Nangong Yu.
