Chapter 59: Unanswered Questions
There is a question that Li Ai has never received an answer. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info whether it was two and a half years before he was there, or two and a half years after he had lost him, she couldn't get an answer. She stood behind the three sofas tiled down in the living room, facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, silent, silently confused.
"Li Ai!" Zhang Zhou, who had just regained control of his body, had not yet reacted, and a shout that was still at the level of consciousness resounded throughout the room through his vocal cords, but it made him discover that he had returned to his body. Realizing that he was so obviously showing his concern in front of the parties, Rao was his heart. A face couldn't help but turn red, and turned his head to avoid Li Ai's gaze. And this shyness made him not notice that there was something wrong with Li Ai's face, so he once again passed by the opportunity to break away from fate.
That black hand just took advantage of the fluctuations in his mind to prolong the time it took for Zhang Zhou's consciousness to occupy his body, and perfectly avoided the possibility that he might have doubts after hearing Li Ai's words. The only gap in fate created by the cultivation was missed.
Hearing Zhang Zhou's shout, Li Ai subconsciously withdrew his outstretched hand to his waist. Facing the real Zhang Zhou, she didn't know what to say for a while, so she had to lower her eyes, silent, silent, silent, silent, silent
He was also silent. The silence was intertwined with hers, with what had just happened, and the room was filled with a very strange atmosphere.
As if they couldn't stand the strange atmosphere at last, they suddenly raised their heads at the same time and said, "You ......" and only spit out the word, and they stopped in shock at the same time, staring at each other silently, choking for a moment. Their original intention was to break the unspeakable silence, but they never thought that such an accident happened, which made the atmosphere even more strange.
"How are you?" Li Ai tilted his head, avoiding Zhang Zhou's still staring gaze, and asked in a low voice. Although the feeling of being watched by him condescendingly made her uncomfortable, she had no intention of getting up. It seems that once you get up, the distance you are now will no longer exist.
"I'm fine." It wasn't until she looked away from the other side and opened her mouth to ask that Zhang Zhou woke up like a dream and hurriedly responded.
"Is that so?" Li Ai spoke in a low voice, as if he was making an inquiry that did not need to be answered. Seeing that there was no follow-up on this topic, and the atmosphere between him and her would return to that unspeakable silence, Zhang Zhou was a little anxious for a while. He tried to find new topics to perpetuate the conversation that broke the unspeakable silence. He always felt that it would be bad if the silence was allowed to continue......
"Well, why are you here?" After a pause, Zhang Zhou had a flash of inspiration in his mind and threw out this question that made him a little puzzled. He remembered, he didn't seem to have told her his address, did he? So how did she find it? Slowly putting his thoughts on these questions, Zhang Zhou quietly relaxed. He felt that the strange atmosphere that surrounded him was slowly dissipating.
As he tried to dispel the strange atmosphere and dilute the unspeakable silence, Li Ai also bit his lower lip lightly, trying to ignore what had just happened. However, less than two minutes had passed since that scene, and there was even his body temperature on her wrist, and he himself was standing less than three meters away from her. How does this allow her to calm down in a short period of time? Although she knew that he was not the one who made those actions, at least the body belonged to him.
In comparison, what happened just now was not dominated by Zhang Zhou's consciousness after all. He only saw all this through the vision of his right eye, and finally came to his senses at a certain distance from Li Ai. After all, he hadn't personally experienced that incident, and the impact he had received was far less than that of Li Ai. Therefore, when he calmed down, Li Ai was still in turmoil. Therefore, the question he threw out, she understood that it was not the same as Zhang Zhou's original meaning.
"We are companions." She lowered her eyes and whispered, "When I am in trouble, you will come to my help; So, on the other hand, in the same situation, I will also help you. ”
"Huh?" Zhang Zhou was a little confused, he scratched his head, and only then did he understand that Li Ai seemed to have misunderstood what he meant. However, such words made his heartstrings tremble. In the past six months, although she would treat his wounds like a companion and listen to his emotions and uneasiness, she never really admitted that she was his companion. And now, Leng Buwei has been recognized by her, Zhang Zhou couldn't help but be overjoyed for a while, showing a happy smile.
And clearly hearing his questioning voice, Li Ai suddenly understood that he had misunderstood what he meant. She was embarrassed for a while, but she didn't want Zhang Zhou to see it, so she stood up and said in a low voice, "Since you're fine, I should go back too." ”
Subconsciously said this farewell word, Li Ai suddenly remembered the gate set for her by those people. She raised her eyes and glanced at the sky outside the window behind Zhang Zhou, secretly estimated the time, and her face instantly turned pale.
Only ...... are left It's been about half an hour! Although he was in joy, Zhang Zhou was keenly aware of Li Ai's uneasiness, he frowned, turned to follow her gaze, and when he noticed the twilight outside the window, he quietly understood the reason for her paleness. After estimating the distance between here and her house, Zhang Zhou's frowning brows relaxed slightly. If you take a taxi, you can get there in more than ten minutes, but ...... He remembered Li Ai's habit and rubbed his temples with a little headache.
He was silent, but he stepped forward quickly, stood beside Li Ai, grabbed the wallet and key that he had placed under the pillow with the green puppet, and then reflexively grabbed Li Ai's soft wattle, pulled her and quickly rushed out of the room. Pulling the door with his hand, Zhang Zhou pulled Li Ai, who was still a little confused, and quickly rushed down the stairs, and then stood on the edge of the road in front of the apartment. After waiting for a while, he reached out and flagged down a taxi, shoved her into it, still gasping for breath, and sat down next to her.
After telling the driver the name of the apartment where Li Ai lived, Zhang Zhou moved his gaze to Li Ai, who was very uncomfortable, under the driver's somewhat strange gaze. Seeming to be a little afraid of this thing that he hadn't sat on for a long time, Li Ai subconsciously grabbed Zhang Zhou's arm, which was close at hand.
There was no word all the way, until they arrived at their destination and sent Li Ai off the car, and there was no conversation between them. And when Zhang Zhoumu escorted Li Ai into the cage-like apartment, he suddenly called out to her, "Li Ai." ”
She stopped where she was, but she never looked back, and she didn't respond in response. She just stopped, waiting for his next step.
"I ...... Can it be the same as before? He asked in a low voice, with a hint of apprehension in his words. He knew what kind of pain he had put her through. I know what I'm asking for. I know how difficult such a request is. Still, he spoke. He...... I don't want to lose her. She didn't want to lose the shelter she was in.
"We ...... It's a companion. She didn't answer directly, just whispered. Then he walked towards the entrance of the apartment. Behind her, Zhang Zhou smiled with relief. He turned and walked over to the impatient taxi driver, who was already waiting, and as he closed the door, he peered through the window at the cage and was pleased to find that the hole he had broken was still there, unhealed.
The taxi hissed a little hoarse in the vibrations, then slowly turned around on the lane shrouded in the faded gray sunset and the gradually brightening neon colors.
The winter night has begun to envelop the land and render the whole city. Under such a cold night, Zhang Zhou got out of the car and set his eyes on an alley not far away. It was one of the only six rifts left in the city. Today, it was his turn to open the rift in this half of the city where he was.
Zhang Zhou waited until the taxi behind him walked away, then lowered his eyes, opened the enchantment, and walked towards the alley with the crack step by step. After a few moments, he walked out of the alley, looked over the corner to some distant place, and wondered if he would go to the other half of the city tonight, and bring forward to today the anomalies that he was scheduled to deal with only this Saturday.
However, after visually measuring the distance, he finally calmed down, turned around and walked in the direction of his house. The fight just now finally made him vent the heat in his heart because of Li Ai's recognition.
He has been ...... since then What is true is no longer a human being.
While he was trapped in the alley, dragging his long knife and fighting the evil creatures imprisoned in it by the runes he had set in advance, Li Ai stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, pressing the metal railing, letting the cold winter wind pass through her open window, stirring her long black hair, and taking away some of the hot heat on her cheeks.
She unconsciously clenched her palms, and there ...... There was still a bit of temperature that didn't belong to her.
After a long time, she closed the floor-to-ceiling window, took a step back, and peeked at the faint phantom that belonged to her through the faint ghostly light projected into the floor-to-ceiling window. Trying to see her emotions clearly on her face. It's a pity that she can see through other people's emotions through their expressions. But he can't see his mood clearly through the reversed mirror. It is difficult for a doctor to heal himself, which is exactly this truth.
She withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes, and whispered as if asking who and as if asking herself.
"If at the time...... If it's really Zhang Zhou, what will happen to me? ”
