Chapter 009: Death (I)
The rose, a flower species extinct in the world where Jocais is still alive, is known only through ancient books. But everyone also knows that this kind of flower represents love, true love.
It's a pity that there is no real love in this world, and everyone thinks so, so they prefer daffodils to show respect for love.
Although Jokath was the same person, when he saw the rose for the second time, he already had a different idea in his heart than the others. He sees this idea as hope, hope for the future, hope for love, hope for life.
It's just that he doesn't want this hope to arise because of Xiao Su, but not Dong Yang.
It was somewhat regretful, but Qiao Kaisi did not express this feeling in front of Xiao Su.
Following Xiao Su out of the door of the Shangri-La Hotel, Qiao Kaisi gently grasped his right hand, he now has spiritual power, so he wants to try to see if he can have the same ability to manipulate time and space as Xiao Su.
The current space-time came to a standstill after a brief flicker, because Xiao Su's ability had been restored.
Qiao Kaisi raised his right hand, thinking about Xiao Su's manipulation of time and space, took a deep breath, and slowly gathered his spirit.
A warm current slowly flowed down Jokath's veins to his right hand, and then his right hand became hot, and his fingertips even felt to swell, as if the warm current was about to splash out of his fingertips.
At the same time, his forehead was also drenched in cold sweat, his expression also looked a little painful, and even his breathing became a little disordered.
"Stop, if you gather strength like this, your body will be overloaded and explode." Xiao Su, who had already walked away, felt Qiao Kaisi's pain, so he flashed back to Qiao Kaisi, raised his hand and grabbed his wrist, cutting off the circuit of the warm current.
Jokath felt his body hollowed out and half-knelt on the ground, looking a little lost.
Xiao Su just smiled, let go, and turned his head to look at the river next to the hotel.
As Xiao Su lowered his hand, the stagnant time and space returned to its normal appearance again, and the streets became noisy, masking the sound of the gurgling of the river, and also covering up Qiao Kaisi's unwilling complaints.
"Why can't I?"
Turning back her head, Xiao Su looked at Qiao Kaisi who was half-kneeling in front of her, she knew why he was so lost, but she didn't have a trace of comfort, but said coldly: "If you want to have the ability to manipulate time and space like me, you need not only to have the spiritual power of the Dark Spirit God Clan, but also to know how to control the order of time and space." β
"Order ......"
"Yes, whether it is in your third dimension or the second dimension where I am, each space-time has its own order and trajectory." Saying that, Xiao Su couldn't get used to Qiao Kaisi's depressed appearance, and couldn't help but reach out and grab Qiao Kaisi's collar and pull him up.
"Just like your body."
"What does it have to do with my body?" Qiao Kaisi asked, but he didn't expect that he would be carried like this by a woman who was a head shorter than himself, and he was still in full view of everyone, so he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Xiao Su snorted lightly, let go of his hand, turned around and said: "If you want to control time and space, you need a body and spirit that can withstand the load generated when time and space are reversed, obviously you are not qualified for this now." β
"So how can I have it?" Seeing that he was not without a chance, Qiao Kaisi's eyes became energetic again, and he rushed to Xiao Su in two arrow steps.
Looking at Qiao Kaisi's expectant and pious eyes, Xiao Su was stunned. She knew that Qiao Kaisi was so eager to have the power to manipulate time and space, but he just wanted to find the whereabouts of his fiancΓ©e Dong Yang as soon as possible and fulfill his personal long-cherished wish.
There is actually no problem with this, as a contractor, Xiao Su understands that he must help Qiao Kaisi.
And on the road to collect bridges, no one knows what else will happen, and once the contractors are separated, mortals are afraid that they will be more than lucky.
"After all, the bridge needs to seal the spirit beast to get the ......" Thinking like this, although Xiao Su felt a trace of inexplicable sadness in his heart, he still raised the corners of his mouth and said to Qiao Kaisi: "First of all, you have to have a healthy body, and then in the process of collecting bridge, you are constantly familiar with the ways and means of controlling spiritual power. β
When it came to collecting bridge, Qiao Kaisi also came over suddenly, it turned out that he and Xiao Su still had this matter.
"Damn, I don't say if you still forgot about it?!" Xiao Su didn't expect Qiao Kaisi to take the contract so seriously, and immediately became angry.
Seeing that Xiao Su was about to get angry, Qiao Kaisi also quickly compromised and explained: "How dare you? It's not like it happened all at once, and there are a lot of things that I can't use in my brain. β
"Better so, or I'll exercise all my power for your life."
Xiao Su's sneering smile made Qiao Kaisi chuckle in his heart. After thinking about it carefully, he remembered that he owed his life to Xiao Su because he knew Xiao Su's name.
How to think about it, how to feel at a loss but helpless, Qiao Kaisi couldn't help but glance at Xiao Su.
But now, he felt that he had more important things to do, that is, to go back to the headquarters of the convenience store and reply to the results of Celine's explanation.
"Are you going to go back?" Xiao Su pierced Qiao Kaisi's thoughts and asked.
While raising his hand to greet the taxi, Qiao Kaisi responded: "Otherwise? I'm a three-dimensional creature who wants to eat, what can I eat without income, and what can I take to practice without food to withstand the load of time and space? β
"So human beings are hypocritical, and they can't live without eating or drinking." Xiao Su said, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
It happened that a taxi should stop in front of Xiao Su, and she shook her head while getting into the car.
Qiao Kaisi looked at Xiao Su who was sitting in the back seat, but he smiled coldly, quickly walked around to the driver, left a hundred yuan, and then leaned into the driver's ear and whispered: "I ran out of the mental hospital, and I happened to be met by a kind person like me, so I bothered the master to send it back." β
The driver squinted at Xiao Su in the back seat wearing a sports jacket that was torn by the fight, and couldn't help but smile.
Looking back, he waved his hand at Qiao Kaisi and said, "A hundred yuan is not enough." β
"Two hundred is always fine." Qiao Kaisi didn't expect the driver to sit on the ground and start the price, so he couldn't help but give the driver a blank look, but he still licked a hundred yuan without hesitation. Although the mental hospital can't trap this Protoss, it's good to be able to gain temporary freedom.
The so-called is to take money to eliminate the disaster, the driver collected 200 yuan from Qiao Kaisi, immediately locked the car door, and galloped away with Xiao Su with a bang on the accelerator.
Looking at the back of the taxi that gradually disappeared from view, Qiao Kaisi couldn't help but stretch and take a deep breath of free air. But his expression of enjoyment suddenly froze, as if he remembered something.
She ...... Why not...... Noisy? At this time, Qiao Kaisi realized that Xiao Su, who was sitting in the taxi, seemed very calm, and even if he didn't get into the car, he didn't have any reaction.
"According to the general setting, wouldn't you slam the car window with both hands and scold me for being a villain?" As he spoke, Qiao Kaisi couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and his heart also became uneasy, always feeling that something bad was about to happen.
But no matter what happens to him in the near future, Jocais feels that it will be later, and he should have a rare time of freedom first.
Moreover, you can't take Xiao Su back to the company to see Celine, otherwise Celine will think that he is going out to pick up girls. After all, no boss likes an employee who doesn't do what she instructs, and if she can't keep her job at that time, I'm afraid that next month's rent will not be paid.
Sincerely, Longyou Shoal was played by shrimp, and Tiger fell Pingyang was bullied by dogs. Thinking about it, Qiao Kaisi couldn't help but look back at the lobby of the Shangri-La Hotel again before leaving.
At this moment, he suddenly felt some sympathy for You Qianyin, sympathized with his struggle in the cracks, and sympathized with the sneer he still had to maintain when he was toyed with by those rich kids. And now he is not like this.
But this qiΔ will change, Joe Kath always believes.
After three bus transfers, two subway transfers, and a 100-meter sprint up the stairs, Joe Kath finally arrived at Celine's office before Celine got off work.
It should be a little anxious, and the other employees have already left work and no one has reported it, Qiao Kaisi decisively forgot to knock on the door and rushed in, seeing the scene that should not be seen.
And when Celine and Joe Kath looked at each other, an awkward atmosphere instantly filled the entire office, and this atmosphere slowly turned into Celine's anger.
Pulling up the transparent leg socks, buttoning the buttons on the chest, and putting away the wet wipes on the table, Celine was so angry that she crumpled the used wipes in her hand and smashed them at Joe Kath. Joe Kath did something wrong, how dare he dodge, he could only let the wet wipes smash hard in the face.
The wipes soon fell at Joe Kath's feet, but his face was left with the smell of matcha from the wipes, and the seductive smell of Celine, some fishy but with a faint fragrance.
"You don't want to live anymore, do you?" Celine pulled down her skirt, twisted her ass again, and scolded Jokayth coldly and angrily.
Qiao Kaisi smiled awkwardly, but pointed to the speaker and said, "That...... Boss, did you turn off the video first? The voice...... Endure...... Sultry. As he spoke, Qiao Kaisi couldn't help but let out a long breath and slowly closed his hands in front of him.
"It's quite provocative, so do you know what it's like to be interrupted alive just about to be unblocked?" Celine said, and couldn't help but be so angry that she took the calendar on the desk and smashed it at Joe Kath.
It's okay for the soft thing of the wet wipes to hit his body, but the monthly calendar thing Qiao Kaisi thinks it's better to dodge it.
Seeing that Qiao Kaisi actually dared to dodge, the unsatisfied depression in Celine's heart burst out instantly, and she walked towards Qiao Kaisi with a fierce momentum, and said even more resentfully: "Since you ruined my good deeds, then you can only make you pay!" β
