Volume 2 The Game for the "Half-Dead" Chapter 62 He has done everything he can
Black Lake City, as peaceful and quiet as ever, is crowded with people and traffic on the streets.
The boy who was tied to a chair listened to the noise coming from the broken wooden window, and thought that he would be taken to the barren mountains and mountains, or the abandoned city without people, but it turned out to be just a temporarily abandoned house in the downtown area.
This was the time before the female members of the Order of Seven fell from the building, and while the Guardians of the Dead were whipped and interrogated by the female members, the overseers came to the place where the boys were.
Upon entering, the overseer glanced the boy up and down, a sympathetic look on his face.
"What about young and vigorous kids, I guess. 16οΌβ

"Pretty much the same, just a little short. The regulator waved his hand, trying to find a step for himself.
"Far from it. β
The boy pursued mercilessly, causing the supervisor to immediately raise his palm and signal him to stop. Then the regulator changed the subject and got down to business.
"Child, I can spare your life and play a game with you. The Overseer said arrogantly as he walked over to the boy, then behind him, with his back to him, "I'm going to tell you what we're going to do next, and I'll tell you all the truth. It won't tell you exactly what you're trying to do, but it will tell you the time and place, the number of participants, and the approximate goal. After that, you can't tell anyone. As soon as you say it, someone will hunt you down. β
It's really a mandatory game.
Whether the boy agrees or not, he has become a part of the game when he hears those words. Even if he chooses to pretend not to hear, indifferent like a passer-by who doesn't care about himself, then he can be considered to have made a choice in the game.
This boy is just a civilian, he is not a member of the organization, let alone a hero. But after learning about these things, he was no longer a passerby. So, it's no longer a matter of self-interest, and the boy has to make a decision here.
Perhaps, many people will think that they are passers-by, and it is difficult to accept being dragged in like this.
Do you want to be peaceful? Do you think it's good to live your own life and don't want to participate in the rights and wrongs of the world? Maybe some people are really too much and numb, but that's not what it should be, let alone an excuse.
If you turn a deaf ear to a shared crisis and wait until the crisis spreads beyond control, it may be too late to regret it.
But having said that, it's really hard to do it.
Ignoring the boy's thoughts, the Overseer told him of his plan and left him in the room.
"You're stupid enough to tell me the plan, and as soon as I make it public, everyone will know about it!" shouted the boy the moment the Overseer walked out the door.
Regulators, however, are confident.
"It's you, stupid kid, think about it, when you say those things, the people who listen must be the ones who are willing to bear it, must be the ones who are on your side?" the overseer's head tilted slightly, "Or is it worth saving?"
It was these few words that finally detonated the doubts and fears accumulated in the boy's heart.
He had met people who turned and ran when they saw danger, people who seemed to be good people but turned around in the blink of an eye...... Those things planted seeds in his brain, waiting for the day when they burst out.
Yes, if after saying it, those people are afraid of things and pretend not to hear, or those people are the people of the Guardian of the Dead Country, then wouldn't it be in vain?
Also, those people did not show up when his girlfriend was tortured and dying, and they did not appear until the end of their self-righteousness. Even though a female member of the Sevens later came to his aid, they were eventually arrested without help......
The supervisor told him to keep a good watch, and the next case would prove this fact again, that is, the female member of the Order of Seven fell to her death without anyone noticing.
At that time, no one told him in his ear that those who were afraid of things were really just the surface, and he was just living in the shadows. So, in accordance with these, he disguised himself with suspicion and turned his heart into a fortress of darkness.
That's why he remained silent in the interrogation room.
He was worried that it was useless to say it, and that speaking out would only allow him to die in vain.
Fortunately, in the end, before it was too late, someone finally broke into the fortress and rescued him. It's just that he doesn't know how long he can see the sun.
Finally, the boy came back to his senses, looked at the dimly lit interrogation room as if he had just woken up from a dream, and then looked at the sumptuous meal on the table, knowing that there was no way to escape.
So what? Anyway, he's managed to get the message to the right person, he's done everything he can.
"By the way, I've always wanted to ask. This is my last meal. "The boy is very calm, like a condemned prisoner who has no attachment, calm as water when he gets the decapitation.
"Uh...... Yes...... What does the last meal mean?" asked the guard next to the boy knowingly.
"Brother guard, what you are holding in your hand is a gun. β
"Are you really that reassuring of him? He must be dangerous tonight. β
Xiao Jing talked with Bai Nanyu and walked to the street, and after feeling that there were no people from the Dead Country Guards around, they finally began to talk about the boy.
If that boy really wants to live, leaving with Bai Nanyu is the best way.
However, the boy rejected Bai Nanyu in his heart. After learning what the boy was thinking, Nightmare showed Bai Nanyu what he was thinking.
It was a city that was crumbling.
The beautiful memories with her make it up, walking through every street, every intersection, those beautiful memories and promises, all of which appear in front of me like a marquee.
Once, there were two people in the city, but now, she's gone.
What Bai Nanyu saw in his mind may only be known to Nightmare and her. The boy understood that Bai Nanyu had that supernatural ability when he was red-eyed, so he didn't resist, but poured out his heart in this special form.
Those memories were like hallucinations that covered everything in front of Bai Nanyu's eyes.
She saw everything that was as sweet as honey, but at this moment it turned into bitter scars. Maybe in the eyes of others, he will definitely be puzzled, but Bai Nanyu suddenly understood.
After all, she saw more than that.
"I understand, but Nightmare tells me he doesn't want to go. Bai Nanyu, who came back to his senses, replied lightly.
"Obviously no one will come to save you, why do you still say it, I don't understand. β
In the interrogation room, the guard who bought dinner for the boy finally gave up his disguise, revealed his identity, and began to ask the boy why he did it.
Yes, this guard is a member of the Guardians of the Dead, sent to spy on him, and must kill him after he says those words. So what he prepared for the boy was really a severed head meal.
The boy nodded, as calm as a stone statue.
"Yes, I didn't understand it either. But Bai Nanyu reminded me, and she made me understand. "What if no one saves me? at least I can save somebody else." Isn't that the other way around, 'somebody will save me'?"
Yes, why should I think about whether there is anyone to save me, why do I have to think about whether others will help each other? As long as I am willing to save others, the saved person will definitely be more or less grateful, and there will always be someone willing to save him.
"What are you talking about? I still don't understand......" The guard was confused.
"She told me that if people don't help me, I won't help people, and no one will help them. If people don't help me, but I help others, then someone will always be infected. The boy breathed a sigh of relief, "That's why she will devote herself to helping others and making others have ...... It seems to be called ...... Feelings of indebtedness. β
Feeling indebted?
Maybe this is the case, when a person and you don't know each other, then one party is in trouble, and the other has no reason to help. However, if the other party has a strong sense of justice and likes to help others, then this time the other party will leave a sense of debt.
Don't say anything, if he is a person who only knows how to take, it is an exception, as long as this person is a normal person, then he will always think that someone has helped him.
This debt has not been repaid, maybe every time someone is in trouble, he will remember it.
There are already many people who "owe" Bai Nanyu's "debt", I don't know if they will pay it back, who will they pay it back, and when will they pay it back?
The guard hesitated and shoved the gun he was holding back into his waist.
He originally wanted to use this gun to force the boy and not allow him to leave, but at present, it seems that he is shaken. Bai Nanyu's heart to the boy has been transmitted to him again, just like the spread of the virus.
"By the way, do you know? Bai Nanyu, even if some people in the Dead Guards killed people and did a lot of bad things, she would not kill anyone, but would throw them to the guards and let them give these people a chance. The boy looked at the guard, and his calm heart rippled, "Because there is a naΓ―ve girl who awakens her innocence."
The girl felt that it was useless to kill a prisoner, unless the prisoner really did not change his life, otherwise it would be the best result if the prisoner could try to pay for those crimes. β
"Then she was so naΓ―ve. The guard laughed.
"Isn't it good to be naΓ―ve and simple? People are just too complicated, and only when they live will they be miserable and tired. β
It's like, no, it's about life. This sensual guard, just wanted to live, so he succumbed to the guns of the Dead Guards and became their man.
At this time, the boy's words once again made him start to waver.
There may be many, many more people in the world who "have no fixed place".
"Are you going to kill me?" β
"I ......" the guard hesitated.
"Complete your mission, or you'll be killed. The boy was still very calm, and at this time, in his eyes, he had the courage to look at death as if he were home.
The guard dug into his pocket, clutched it tightly, and finally put it back again.
"I can't do ......"
"Then why are you taking on this task......? You better do it, even if you let me escape, you will die, and I will still die when I get out. It's better to let you live, that's what you want, isn't it?"
The guard struggled to raise his head and gritted his teeth and pulled out a bottle of poison.
He knew that there were still many people guarding the road outside, and the boy would never be able to escape.
"I still want to know, Bai Nanyu can protect you, why didn't you go with her at that time?" asked the guard, placing the poison on the table.
"I'm not leaving, I don't want to go. β
At that moment, it was as if there was a world in the boy's eyes.
In that crumbling empty city, everything is crumbling, disintegrating, falling. The light on the horizon illuminates the sky, but it is powerless against the dark ground.
The boy walks on the road without grass, as if he is walking on the road to hell.
Until a girl's figure appeared in front of him, he wanted to touch, but he couldn't. He told her that he wanted to accompany her, but that he had a mission. When he has completed his mission, he will go to her.
He was already very close, and now he seemed to be able to touch her.
It may indeed be stupid, the guard tried to persuade him, but for now, he could only kill the boy and complete his mission. So, he handed the poison to the boy.
"Eat, when you're full, let's go on the road. β
