The next day, the Toothbreaker came to visit. Accompanying him, there is also Wang Mazi.

Wang Mazi is here to apologize. It's just that at this time, he and Xu Wenbiao are no longer people of the same world at all.

Xu Wenbiao casually said a few perfunctory words, and then sent him away. However, Xu Wenbiao had a good impression of Broken Tooth Dog and Fang Zichuan, so they had a meal together. And tell the two of them that if there is anything, they can call themselves at any time. Broken Tooth Dog and Fang Zichuan were very moved, but they didn't know what Xu Wenbiao's promise meant.

A red-level ability is not yet a top powerhouse in the ability world. But in the world, there is nothing that can bother him.

After eating, Xu Wenbiao drove to the villa again, and saw that Geng Shanshan was already very capable in her work in the sales office, and she couldn't see the youthfulness of more than ten days ago. Moreover, other colleagues were also very polite to her and shrugged their shoulders, this kid can be regarded as capable. Otherwise, no matter how much others help, if you don't have the level, it will be in vain.

On the third day back to Binhai, Li Jing returned.

When he received the call, Xu Wenbiao was a little excited and immediately rushed to Li Jing's house.

Then, when he saw her, Xu Wenbiao was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong? Don't know each other? Li Jing shook off her hair arrogantly, "Haven't you become pretty?!" ”

Xu Wenbiao's expression was a little complicated, and he looked at Li Jing, "Unexpectedly, you turned out to be an anomaly." ”

The ridiculous expression suddenly froze, Li Jing looked at Xu Wenbiao who was standing at the door, "You have actually been promoted to the red rank?!" ”

"Don't you explain?" Xu Wenbiao looked at Li Jing, a girl who had known each other for more than 20 years, a girl who once thought she knew very well, but at this moment, she looked a little strange, "Don't tell me it's just a coincidence." ”

"Come in." Li Jing turned sideways, "Since you have seen it, I will tell you everything." ”

Xu Wenbiao silently walked into the room, picked up the water cup on the coffee table and drank it dry, and sat on the sofa with a somewhat complicated mood.

"Ever felt weird?" Li Jing pulled a chair and sat down opposite him, looking at Xu Wenbiao, "For so many years, no matter how unlucky you are, however, you have never been life-threatening. ”

Xu Wenbiao looked at her, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and lit it, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly, "I always thought that my bad luck had reached the extreme, and I didn't think it was a kind of luck not to die." So, you said this question, I never thought about it. ”

Li Jing smiled, but the two once extremely close partners were like strangers at the moment, and even began to talk a little-for-tat, "Once by chance, twice by chance." Countless accidents add up to not be accidental. Over the years, you've suffered so much bad luck, but you're still alive. That's because I'm always there for you. Even in the years when you disappeared, I have been secretly protecting you. Because, I, too, am your guardian. ”

"Why didn't you tell me?" Xu Wenbiao looked straight into Li Jing's eyes.

"Because, your father wants you to be an ordinary person." Li Jing said lightly, put aside her face, and looked out the window.

"Why? Don't tell me! Xu Wenbiao's voice was a little heavier.

Li Jing turned her head and looked at him, "Tell you what?" Tell you, you're not human at all, or, tell you, we can't be friends at all, I'm just a guard for you?! ”

Neither of them spoke. They looked at each other and looked away again.

"Even if you tell you, what can you do without the ability to awaken?" After a while, Li Jing said lightly: "Don't tell you, you still have a relative in this world, and a friend, including your grandfather and me." If I tell you, you're really nothing. Alone, in this world. Moreover, there is no power to resist. Before, although you were unlucky, at least you did not lack happiness. If I really told you everything, what do you think would be like under that kind of loneliness and boundless pressure? ”

Xu Wenbiao knew that Li Jing was right about the ground. But he couldn't take it. He thought that the relationship between the two was the most intimate, purest and most flawless, but he didn't expect that from the beginning, Li Jing was purposeful by his side. He couldn't accept, couldn't accept that the friendship between the two was tarnished by anything, even if it was for his good, he couldn't accept it.

The human heart is so strange. The same sentence of grass and mud horses, if passers-by scold the ground, they will forget it after a while. If a friend scolds the ground, it may take root in the bottom of the heart and can't be pulled out for a long time.

Li Jing looked at the silence in Xu Wenbiao's eyes, and knew that the relationship between the two could never go back to the past. There was a trace of pain in his eyes, but he pretended not to care and said: "My father is a strange person, and back then, he was saved by your father. Become his follower and move to your father's village. Later, there was me, in order to repay the kindness, when I was seven years old when my ability awakened, my father told me to protect you for the rest of my life. ”

"So..."Xu Wenbiao slowly stood up, his expression indifferent, "Everything around me is fake." You, your father, Lao Liu, and my grandfather are all guardians arranged by my father? ”

"Nope." Li Jing looked at Xu Wenbiao, and a trace of pain flashed in her eyes again, "My feelings for you are real." ”

"Hehe, hehehahaha." Xu Wenbiao smiled a little bitterly, turned around and walked out.

"Your grandfather is not a stranger." When he opened the door, Li Jing said quietly behind him: "He is just an ordinary old man, forty years ago, he took in your father who has not yet awakened his ability. ”

"Really?" Xu Wenbiao smiled, pushed open the door and walked out, and dropped a sentence lightly, "It's not important." ”

Walking on the street, people come and go. Xu Wenbiao felt unspeakably lonely.

I once thought that even if the whole world abandoned me, at least there would be Li Jing. However, today Xu Wenbiao knew that he was still lonely.

Walking aimlessly, the people around him who are talking or laughing or expressionless or busy or leisurely, seem to be walking in another world, close at hand, the end of the world.

Recalling the years he had experienced with Li Jing, a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind.

Life, if only as first seen.

The mobile phone in his pocket was vibrating, and when he took it out, it was a message from Li Jing: "Back then, when your father left, he once said that he was going to the Bermuda Triangle. ”

Putting the phone back in his pocket, Xu Wenbiao casually found a step to sit down, smoked a cigarette, looked at the people on the street, and didn't know what he was thinking.

People come and go, and the hour hand flies.

On the ground under Xu Wenbiao's feet, a layer of cigarette butts was piled up, and there were more than a dozen empty wine bottles. When it was getting dark, he threw the last cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it, returned to the pawnshop, looked at the fat cat and said, "Inform the Dawning Alliance to prepare something for me, I want to go out." ”

The fat cat looked at him, "Where are you going?" ”

"The Bermuda Triangle!"
