Chapter 14: The Crying Fat Man
That night, Mu Ge was taken to his home by Huang Qi. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info took advantage of the fact that his adoptive father and adoptive mother were asleep and hid him in his own room.
Huang Qi's adoptive father and adoptive mother are not rich, and they have been adrift in the city for decades, but they can only buy a community house of less than 80 square meters in this busy city.
The two worked hard for life for the first half of their lives, but their bodies were exhausted, and they eventually lost their fertility. In desperation, he chose to go to an orphanage to raise a child.
Huang Qi's house is relatively large according to his words. It occupies a quarter of the entire house. From here, you can also see the love of his adoptive father and adoptive mother.
But even so, in the room, in addition to a wooden bed for sleeping, there is a desk.
After Mu Ge entered the room, he looked at the randomly placed photos on the desk, and couldn't help frowning: "What are you collecting these photos for?"
Those photos are almost all weird-looking people.
Some of them have hairy palms like bear paws, and some have red wings stretched out from their backs, like bats, flying between the two floors......
These are aliens. They have genes in their bodies that are biased towards ordinary people, which can give them some special abilities, and they can transform a certain part of their body at will.
The man whose palm turned into a bear's paw could easily smash through a stone wall with a single punch, and the man with wings on his back could fly through the sky like a bird, and his speed was incomparably fast.
However, if they do not take shape, they are no different from ordinary people.
It's just that Mu Ge can't figure out what Huang Qi is doing collecting photos of these strangers as an ordinary person.
"Meow~" When Mu Ge looked through those photos, Xiao Bai, who was surrounded by Mu Ge in his arms with one hand, seemed to be tired, and broke free from Mu Ge's arms directly, and then jumped into Huang Qi's bed and got into the quilt.
Looking at such a humane Xiaobai, Huang Qi opened his mouth wide in surprise.
Hearing Mu Ge's question, Huang Qi shrugged his shoulders, then sat on the edge of the bed casually, and looked directly at the pile of photos in front of the bed: "It's just curiosity." ”
Mu Ge secretly condensed his brows and looked at Huang Qi, but when the two looked at each other, Huang Qi's gaze was very unnaturally away.
"Let's be honest. "Growing up with Huang Qi since childhood, Mu Ge thinks he still knows Huang Qi very well. He is a very sincere person, and he has never panicked a few times since he was a child. And every time he lies, Huang Qi's eyes always want to look to the left.
Just like it is now.
Under Mu Ge's gaze, Huang Qi scratched his head and laughed twice exaggeratedly.
Standing up from the side of the bed, Huang Qi walked to Mu Ge's side, sorted out the pile of photos together, and then put them in front of him and looked at them one by one.
"Actually, I'd like to be an alien. Anyway, they have the power to fight against injustice. Looking at the photo of the palm turning into a bear's paw and sticking a fist to the wall, and the wall cracked with countless cracks, Huang Qi put the photo in front of Mu Ge and grinned: "Look, are they very strong?"
Mu Ge looked at the photo that Huang Qi put in front of him, casually sandwiched the photo in the middle with both hands, and then looked sideways at Huang Qi, and raised his eyebrows for some reason: "So what?"
Huang Qi smiled, put the photo in his hand on the table, then leaned over, opened a drawer on the left side of the wooden table, and took out a cigarette from it.
Skillfully taking out a lighter from his pocket and lighting the cigarette, Huang Qi walked to the window in the house, opened the closed window with one hand, and then took a hard puff of cigarette butt and spewed out a puff of smoke into the house.
Standing behind Huang Qi and looking at Huang Qi's broad back, Mu Ge always felt a little depressed.
"Mu Ge, do you remember Xiaohe in the orphanage? I was the first and only sister I recognized. Huang Qi looked out the window.
From the height of the tenth floor, you can see most of the city outside. And when you look up, you will be full of starlight, and it seems that you can hold the starlight in your hand when you lift it casually.
Mu Ge seemed to remember something, and suddenly became silent.
"She was seven years old when she died. I still remember that day she told me she wanted to eat marshmallows. I promised her that when she grew up, she would buy a lot of cotton candy for her to eat, so that she could eat as much as she wanted. However, that very night, she died. The heart was taken out and the body was dumped in the back hill of the orphanage. Huang Qi's voice began to tremble, looking at the stars in the sky, Huang Qi only felt that his vision was blurred.
The smoke that lingered on his fingertips obscured his vision like a mist.
Is it because of the smoke? Maybe......
"I know that it was the Inhumans who killed her. But the dean told me that Xiaohe just fell to his death because he was accidental. I cried out to avenge him, but the dean locked me in the house and trapped me for ten days. ”
"I want to avenge her, but I can't find the killer. Even if the murderer is found, how can I, an ordinary person, beat another person?"
"After being picked up by my adoptive parents, I thought my life would be fine. But Mu Ge, do you know, every day watching them go to the construction site to move a few tons of masonry for others in order to survive, you know?"
"I've always wanted that I also have the gene of an alien in my body. When the time is right, it will trigger. At that time, I will be able to avenge Xiaohe, and I can use my abilities to help my adoptive parents and make them live a better life. ”
"But no, I'm just a normal person. It's just a useless, useless fat man! Mu Ge, why did you say that it was Xiaohe who was killed by the alien back then, not me!"
Huang Qi leaned against the wall, and the cigarette pinched on his two fingertips had already been snuffed out by him.
The shrugged shoulders and the sobbing voice seemed to want to spit out the bitterness that had accumulated in my heart for all these years.
Mu Ge looked at Huang Qi silently, and asked himself in his heart, is he an alien?
Born with black pupils, and the ability to continue to awaken later, open the door of the dark world, see the dangerous light on others, and control the dark qi, no matter which one, it can be regarded as an alien.
It's just that from the beginning, these three abilities were almost hidden by him. What Mu Ge thinks about is to be an ordinary person in this chaotic world.
didn't expect that Huang Qi had the life he had always wanted, but for Huang Qi, his biggest wish was to become a stranger.
Perhaps, this is life, there are always too many uncertainties.
Walking behind Huang Qi, the corners of Mu Ge's mouth showed a little indifference.
"Fatty, Xiaohe's revenge, just leave it to me. If you can, you have to go on normally. ”
As an alien, you not only have to face the white eyes and indifference of everyone around you, but you also have to be on guard against MK's group of people at all times.
If...... Even if there is a slight possibility, Mu Ge doesn't want Huang Qi to really have alien genes in his body.
