The flickering candle swayed in the wind, as if it were a soul struggling in pain, crying helplessly to the world. The white figure reached out and tried to build a wall for it, but nothing improved.

Seeing the light flickering on and off, the white-haired girl's heart also tensed for a while.

"Leave the candle alone, it won't go out. ”

An old and dying call pulled the white-haired girl back, and she looked at the old man on the bed behind her, and walked slowly over. At this time, the old man's life was as dying as this broken candle, and the white-haired girl wanted to protect him, wanted to pull him back, but she couldn't do anything at all.

"Grandpa...... Are you alright......" the white-haired girl asked softly in that marshmallow-like warm and sweet voice.

"It's okay, this disease, since the day I came to the mountain forest, it has flare-ups every once in a while, and each time it is more and more serious. It looks like there's no way to escape. Anyway, there is always a day when a person dies, and I've lived so long, it's not too bad to die. ”

"Don't say that...... You can live ......"

"Hey, I've lived enough. ”

A cough sounded as usual, and the white-haired girl could clearly hear that the cough was getting weaker and weaker day by day. This nameless terminal illness has been bothering him for years, and maybe he really needs to be relieved.

Bringing the decoction, the white-haired girl fed the old man very skillfully, just like her grandfather.

Ah, that's right, her grandfather.

Maybe she didn't mention her grandparents, but her grandfather had already passed away, when she was very young. At that time, she asked her father what was wrong with her grandfather, and her father just gently held her cheek and told her softly, "Grandpa is just asleep." ”

She always remembered this sentence that after she was in a car accident and pulled her sister out of the travel bus, she also told her sister this in her father's words, even if her sister is no longer an ignorant child.

Mom and Dad just fell asleep, a sentence that I didn't believe.

"Child, let me ask you again, do you still insist on accepting this power?" the old man cleared his throat, and spoke with great difficulty, "It may save people, but it can also kill you......"

Suddenly returning to reality from the memory, the white-haired girl nodded, still so stubborn.

Then you must know that the harmony of this world is definitely not achieved overnight, and it is definitely not something that can be maintained for a lifetime after success. If you want this world to last, then you have to keep working hard. The old man still looked very hesitant, and he still didn't seem to be at ease with the white-haired girl.

"I understand, I really want to make this world a better place. ”

"I hope you can slowly discover the essence of people in your life, and human beings will always be a life that grows up in contradictions. As he spoke, the old man looked at the flickering flame on the candle, and suddenly stopped talking.

This world is like this candle.

Although it has light, there is no one to protect it, and it will be extinguished in the wind one day. At that time, someone will have to light it with their own light and let it continue to burn. People can't slack off, once they have a fluke mentality, then everything will gradually die in the wind.

In this indifferent world, I have witnessed the flames being extinguished again and again, and I wonder if the "candle keepers" who guard this "candle" can continue to protect it......

"Today's investigation is over, and Bai Nanyu is still as usual. ”

Recently, the small organization calling itself the "Black Lake City Autonomous Group" has been paying close attention to the movements in the city center and Bai Nanyu's every move. At this time, the investigator had already returned and informed the "superiors" of the information they had received.

After listening to his words, the man wearing the peaked cap nodded: "Bai Nanyu, that guy has been doing these ordinary things until now, does she really have such a powerful ability?

"I'm afraid it's just the same as looks, it's just the ability to heal. A man next to him interjected.

Smiling softly, the two put an end to the conversation.

Only half a day later, a man came over and told them that they had found the injured Peng Yuyun, so the autonomous group sent someone there.

In order to know what would happen over there, Xu Wenxin also offered to follow and went over there together. Of course, there were more than those that prompted him to make this decision. This trip just gave Xu Wenxin a good opportunity to get out of their sight, after all, he saw something that "shouldn't be seen".

After chatting for a while, the atmosphere became a lot more relaxed. But in the midst of this laid-back atmosphere, there was suddenly a little ominous noise.

A few people in the room stopped everything and walked to the window. On the streets, some people openly began to pursue the dead country, talked about the anti-Black Lake city government, and claimed to be compatriots of the dead country. The most important thing is that there are not just one or two people who do this, but groups of three or two everywhere.

Just as he was confused, the man in the cap took out his mobile phone, suddenly sat down, and smiled calmly. He beckoned to a few people with blank faces and asked them to look at the push of their mobile phones.

The army of the dead country is approaching the border of Black Lake City, and a big war is about to break out?

Looking at the urgent news pushed by the headlines, and then looking at the streets, they found that all the public screens had been occupied, and they had become the scene of the confrontation between the Black Lake City army and the dead army broadcast by the media.

The army of the dead country really came this time.

Just as the king of the dead country had predicted, the army of the dead country arrived in Black Lake on time, even though it was already almost sunset. This incident attracted the attention of the media, so it was quickly broadcast, and under the influence of the Internet, it spread all over Black Lake City, and even spread to other cities.

Bai Nanyu, who had already predicted this time, was dormant between the city center and the border area where the army of the dead country arrived, ready to deal with emergencies on both sides at any time.

If the Dead Country is allowed to break into Black Lake City again, then Black Lake City, which has just improved for only a year or two, will become chaotic again. With a feeling of apprehension, people involuntarily stopped their affairs and paid attention to the live broadcast.

On every street corner and square with a large screen, pedestrians stop and watch the situation unfold. Don't think about it, someone must be ready to surrender to the enemy as soon as the country breaks through Black Lake City.

But when you look at it rationally, this is really the best thing to do.

In the crowd, all kinds of people walked through, and even the owner of the bookstore Wu went outside and looked at the big screen on the corner together. I don't know what people's moods and thoughts are at this time, but I know that their expressions are slightly frightened and worried at this time.

And in this worried crowd, there are still strange people mixed in.

In a square close to the center of the city, Captain Liu, the leader of the security squad who had defected not long ago, walked into the crowd at this time, looked at the person in front of the crowd, and smiled with his pockets in his pockets.

In front of this crowd is the leader of one of the self-organized groups of the people of Black Lake City, who is trying to calm people's emotions and tell them not to bow to evil. If everyone thinks that others will surrender and be saved, so they surrender themselves, then won't the people of Black Lake City be finished?

So, it's time for these leaders to show what they're capable of.

It is worth mentioning that among these leaders, there are also six people from the eight-member meeting in the city center, except for the mayor and Wu Shengquan. Wu Shengquan, just to deal with the emergency situation in Heihu City, he returned to the security team and went to be on guard at any time.

In fact, those leaders, in another way, have a similar role to the Eight.

Seeing that people's situation gradually calmed down, and their attention was still on the big screen, the renegade Captain Liu began to touch something around his waist, his eyes staring directly at the leader. This action was not very hidden, and a woman standing behind him did indeed see it.

The woman who understood what was going on was looking at him nervously, unable to take her eyes off at all, and he just sighed, and the woman quickly covered the face of the girl next to her and turned away.

"Mom, that guy has a gun, he's aiming at people......"

"Don't say it!" the woman rudely covered the girl's mouth, but the people had already heard the girl's words and looked in the direction she was pointing, at Captain Liu.

The deafening sound of gunfire sounded as if to send a warning bell to the world, and then the leader at the front of the crowd collapsed, bleeding all over the ground. After killing someone, the sneering Captain Liu was stunned, and then pointed the gun at the girl. For a while, some of the crowd dodged, some tried to block in front of the mother and daughter, and some were ready to move and didn't know what to do.

Looking at the appearance of those people who wanted to defend it out of a sense of justice but were hindered by timidity, a trace of contempt suddenly appeared in Captain Liu's eyes, but he just looked at the group of people like this, and did not make a move.

Anyway, the target has already been killed, and it doesn't matter if the others kill it or not.

As if teasing everyone, Captain Liu pointed at the girl and then at the others, smiling like an ignorant child. However, this did not last long, the crowd quickly opened a mouth, and several armed men quickly ran towards Captain Liu, and when he just turned his head, he was overturned with the butt of a rifle, and then several people immediately suppressed him and snatched his weapon away.

Captain Liu did not struggle, but was unusually calm, and he was terrifyingly calm.

"Why are you, is the reason for your disappearance to be a traitor?" A familiar voice came, and Captain Liu looked up just in time to see Wu Shengquan walking in front of him.

"Hello, Captain Wu. ”

"Why. ”

"Hahaha, there's no way, I can't live if I don't do this. Anyway, a lot of people are like that, aren't they? Everyone is like this, and I'm not stupid, that team member betrayed me for his own life, and I killed him. You should have found his body, I did it. "Captain Liu is right.

This bad thing and calm appearance is really infuriating and a little frightened, in Wu Shengquan's impression, this Captain Liu is a very rational and kind person.

Although sometimes he has some duplicity and makes tsundere-like actions, he is still a good person in general.

And now that the facts are in front of him, he actually chose to rebel, and killed people so calmly, and he didn't panic when he was caught by acquaintances. This contrast was something they didn't expect at all, and it was something they couldn't believe at all.

But in fact, it is because he is rational that he chooses these.

"Actually, when I saw the slain guards with you that day, I had already figured it out. Instead of being a slave and hanging out with a bunch of unconscious miscellaneous fish, you might as well be a bad guy. So as long as there is a chance, I will naturally leave you, and that little cub just gave me this opportunity, why not?" Captain Liu really explained lightly.

A nameless anger filled his mind under the helpless obstruction, Wu Shengquan, who heard these words, nodded in disappointment, pointed at Captain Liu and scolded: "Okay, you said well, take the rest to the interrogation room." ”

As soon as the words fell, a message immediately came from the communicator, saying that Wu Shengquan wanted to lead the team members to a certain place to support the scene. After Wu Shengquan responded to the notice, he looked at Captain Liu's faint, smug smile again, waved his hand lightly to let him take him away, and then led the team members to the place where the incident occurred.

He may not have noticed that the gaze in Captain Liu's eyes at this time was hinting at him. Black Lake City is bound to be chaotic, the question is only whether it can be stabilized again after this chaos.
