Chapter 148: The Trailing Grim Reaper
The perspective of the rapid scroll grows secretly, the wind whistles, and the sand and stones go crazy.
The lacrimal glands are nowhere to be dispatched, a few flowers are scattered, and after the soft light filter, what is left is an empty room, two appearances.
Once insignificant, then cynical, and then reckless, it is difficult to collect nothing.
Excavating each other's scarred beliefs, falling and precipitating abruptly, and finally wiping out the Quartet, it is a parting.
In the absence of a voice, I avoided your side face, you closed your eyes and wept, dazzling in the dark.
The glory of fearlessness, the madness measured by humility, I see the stubbornness pulled under the wide-angle lens, it is yours, and mine.
****
This must be the feeling of being dragged back into the sparkling light.
I was finally isolated from the darkness outside the light, the darkness that I never forgot, the darkness that I looked guarded by, was the city that protected me.
After I die, no one can see me, because I am hidden in this dark city.
It was full of nothingness, no sunny sunshine, no boiling sky, but no whirling sorrow.
The only one who has it is him.
Then, I'll cry, I'll laugh, I'll cry, I'll cry.
That's when I learned that there is a kind of warmth that makes people tireless, and that is his gentleness.
I could see the old face reflected in the center of the mirror, and I knew that this feeling was a ghostly feeling, but let me return to the light of day, and I swore that I could not do it without fear of sorrow.
I'm afraid to see people, and I don't want strangers.
I hate that kind of gaze that thousands of troops come in, and I can't help but do it with bad intentions.
Gu Xiaoxiao sat in the back seat of the fast-moving car, and after a long silent gaze in the center rearview mirror in the car, the desolation lived up to everyone's expectations, and she closed her eyes heavily.
A thin layer of eyelids, the light leaves an orange-yellow blurry image, hot, sour, rolling on thin ice, brightly shaking, and then fogging along the retina, coming to the body, but it is three feet freezing.
Xiaoxiao stiffened her body and didn't dare to move, afraid that she would shed tears.
It's time to grow up, and don't let it be drowned in tears.
With her eyes closed, her eyelashes trembling, she deliberately thought of the air around her as a delayed slow motion, and then slowly, digesting each sour and swollen drop into the dullness of time.
Moist a round of ripples, sprinkled with the faint change of the tide to dissolve into the void of flowers, instantly against the light reluctant to extinguish, and then sink into the sea.
I can't find a monologue in my heart, but I feel that the little voice that symbolizes myself is sinking into the swamp of the abyss, sinking deeper and deeper, and wanting to give up has become a luxury.
It turns out that sometimes raising a white flag and admitting defeat will also be ignored.
Gu Xiao was careful to gnaw on all kinds of emotions like a knife, biting his lip and swallowing those moans, wanting to survive this taste of swallowing dust silently, but suddenly felt a warm plush ball burrow into his arms.
Just a second of touch, and it's relieved.
A little wolf opened her eyes, and she saw herself clearly in those stubborn eyes.
The tears of tears, the helplessness of thousands of sails, are all the hesitation and loneliness that I can't help but raise.
Gu Xiaoxiao looked straight at the kitten "Bell" that got into her arms on her own initiative, surprisingly, it didn't scream, just tilted its head and opened its mouth to make a barking gesture at herself.
It was as if it had read some of my stubborn thoughts, and it didn't scream to get the attention of others.
For a while, Xiaoxiao felt that the bell resonated with herself.
Maybe it also understands itself, and sees through my determination to let go of my weakness.
At this moment, Xiaoxiao doesn't want to think about the reality of felines, and just wants a hug.
That's right, it's she who wants to hug.
Reach out and gently pinch its forelimbs under the armpits, pick it up and hold it in your arms.
It was a very soft touch, and this warm and fulfilling hug made her involuntarily greedy.
The whole time, Xiao Xiao didn't feel any fear or hesitation in the bell, she got a real and complete hug, as if it had known her for years, and it was reassuring enough to calm her pulse.
I don't know why, this kitten that was inadvertently picked up by himself is so close to him.
Maybe it's not unintentional......
Edward, who had been sitting in the front seat and driving quietly, glanced in the rearview mirror, and after a brief glance, he returned to the road ahead.
And the little law has been leaning on the back of the leather and looking out of the car window, with a smile on his face that only he knows.
****
What broke the silence was a phone call.
The bell is the simplest and simplest jingle bell, Xiao Xiao heard the sound is now a shock, obviously startled by this abruptness, the arm holding the bell subconsciously tightened, and then she shrank back but also sensibly chose to shut up.
Can't disturb him, it's basic politeness and not fear of being provoked Edward, Gu Xiaoxiao kept making psychological hints, although it was actually not very useful at all.
"Hey, Night."
On the evening of the evening, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart - this is really a beautiful name, is it male or female?
Just by the name of the fantasy of guò, I think it should be a very beautiful person.
"I've already set off and expect it to take another five hours to arrive."
Xiao Xiaoyi raised her eyebrows, she had never heard of Edward telling her Liga Pennoum just now, so she originally thought it was in a foreign country, or some other very remote city, but if it only took five or six hours to drive, it should be quite close!
"Whew...... I brought a new person with me. ”
Xiao Xiao became nervous next to him, and he was a little nervous when he heard the man mention himself, but he couldn't judge the man's opinion of himself from the concise and bright tone of his voice alone.
It's annoying, it's annoying, it's just casual, it doesn't matter...... The little eyes projected at an angle and did not move, and it seemed that the operation in the head must have been overloaded at high speed.
Edward had already seen the little woman in the back seat from the rearview mirror, tilting his head and pretending not to be surprised, but in fact he was already restless, because the strong expression on the little woman's face was so funny, thinking of this, Edward couldn't help but slide a trace of arc at the corner of his mouth.
At this time, there was a repeated inquiry on the other end of the phone, and Edward realized that he was distracted, remorse and shame occupied his facial features, and his mental power always felt that it had been slammed.
"Is there such a strict zhòng? I think it's more than enough for me to go, and in fact, it's a waste for you to go there alone to solve this incident. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao pursed her lips.
This time she didn't grasp the point, but felt that the sentence before this answer, the other party on the other side of the earpiece must have questioned her ability, and she couldn't help but feel a little shocked in her heart, and muttered to herself silently.
In fact, Xiaoxiao is still inferior, Xiaofa looked back at his master, this kind of moment compared to what mature and steady, sophisticated and sleek adult approach, it prefers Xiaoxiao angrily rolled up her sleeves and beat up those creatures or non-creatures she hated and couldn't get used to, chasing them all over the world just for a clear change, whether it was unreasonable, barbaric and spicy, it felt that Xiaoxiao was more powerful, and more charming.
"Night, I'm not listening to your voice a little normal."
The man squinted his eyes, and when he heard the sound, he sat up straight, and she saw that the man's hand holding the steering wheel was a little bulging.
"Hello? Feed! ”
I don't know what's going on on that end.,Xiaoxiao sorted out her thoughts in disbelief.,But I still can't piece together the blank space in the middle.,But just like that, the beginning and the end.,As a newcomer, she's already worried about this partner who only heard his name and didn't see him.。
Partner...... This word, Xiao Xiao shook his head, now is not the time to hold on to the past, so unrelenting, it has become a disease-free moan.
"Well, what's wrong?" Xiaoxiao felt that he should still be bold to ask, anyway, they are all partners who come out together to cooperate, regardless of status, and they must have the right to speak.
Of course, she wouldn't just say it so bluntly, even if the man asked her, she wouldn't say it, she was afraid of being ridiculed and said that they were not some kind of political routine.
"The night that I called just now was originally sent to deal with this incident, but I don't know why, the phone was suddenly cut off."
"Nothing bad should happen......" Xiaoxiao was a little worried, and couldn't help but start thinking about the bad place.
"The night is very strong, I can't tolerate others questioning him, please pay attention."
It was cold, and he gritted his teeth a little, and word by word popped out, and the outline of each word under his tongue was like a shiny blade, and the murderous aura was heavy.
"Well, I didn't, I didn't, I didn't mean anything else, I'm sorry."
I didn't think that Edward was the kind of man who would intimidate her in order to maintain the strength of others, Gu Xiaoxiao was really not malicious, and he was frightened by such an estrangement, so he no longer dared to speak.
"I'm going to speed things up."
The man said, raised his hand and pressed a button, a little obvious felt a violent acceleration, her body couldn't help but fall backwards, her heart seemed to be brought to the top of a waterfall that hung from the sky, deep on the edge, and when she lowered her head, it was a sudden collapse of the turbulent water, but it was the doomed end, the pain of ashes, cold and clear.
"Squeak!"
Xiaofa's cry was loud and shocking at this time, mixed with the sound of wings beating on the car window, and he looked at it in a little puzzlement.
Then she saw it, unable to speak, but with her mouth open and her gaze long.
Because the car they were sitting in was moving so fast, the scenery outside the car was all connected, so that everything was chaotic and blurry.
At this moment, she should have hurriedly shouted at the man who was driving, and told her to emphasize the safety issue, but she had just provoked this man's displeasure, if she spoke again, would she be killed by him directly here?
In order to protect herself, and for the night of losing contact, Xiaoxiao still chose to shut up and let it develop.
It's a bit of a self-defeating taste, and Xiaoxiao is mentally ready to sacrifice for the great cause of soul extermination.
In fact, sometimes the sublime is also a kind of psychological comfort.
****
The five-hour journey was cut short to an hour by Edward's silence, and when the car stopped, he was speechless.
She's not so stupid, since the man pressed a button that doesn't know how high-end, the car has been kept in one direction all the way, and he no longer operates.
With the car's own screen video, Xiao Xiao was stunned to see that when she crossed the narrow gap between the car and the car, as well as the river, the house, and even the mountains, Xiao Xiao obviously felt that the car seemed to fly, and her intuition told her that this car was not an ordinary car, especially in the hour after pressing the button, it definitely became something else.
Seeing that Edward didn't get out of the car, Xiaoxiao naturally didn't move, and sat there obediently waiting for instructions.
Through the car window, Xiaoxiao saw two long logs standing not far in front of the car, it was reasonable to say that something should have been nailed to it, but it was not, Xiaoxiao tilted his head and thought a little strangely.
I don't understand why I stopped here, but I looked at this position at this moment, Xiaoxiao didn't see anyone or a house, but I didn't dare to ask him, there was a feeling that I was blocked from front to back, left and right.
Edward stared ahead for a long time, as if thinking about something, and then suddenly sighed, pushed open the door and got out of the car.
Xiaoxiao heard the man leave a word to himself when he closed the car door, and hurriedly followed him out of the car.
"What did you just say? I didn't hear it. ”
The tone of the last sentence was obviously weakened, and Xiaoxiao seemed to be very careful this time, for fear that the man would show his previous appearance again.
But the man didn't answer her, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but twist her fingers behind her back, even if she held a knife to her neck at this moment, she couldn't do a leisurely stroll he, the horse chaos and the shortage of soldiers had already overshadowed everything.
was panicking there, and the next moment the man's behavior was unexpectedly developed.
"Hey, they've been with us all the way, so it's time to show up."
As he spoke, Edward had an extra pistol in his hand, and he was shocked by the aim in a certain direction behind the little one.
Xiaoxiao stared at the muzzle of the gun stiffly, obviously listening to the words should not be said to her, but why was the gun pointed at her?
Her legs are weak, and now she can't use any strength at all, what the hell is going on, are you afraid? But even the instinct to escape can't be brought into play.
"Full gun 216mm; Barrel 127mm; rifling six, right-handed; Wrap length 406mm; muzzle kinetic energy 477J; combat rate of fire 35 rounds / min; Caliber 0.45 inches (11.43 mm), muzzle velocity of warhead 247 m/s; The effective firing range is 50m; Aiming baseline length 160mm; Loading 7 rounds; hinged barrel offset locking; Barrel short recoil; Single-action launch. Good guns, classics. Looks like you've already modified it. ”
Someone was talking, the voice sounded behind him, Xiao subconsciously turned around to look, and gradually appeared in the air was a man, sullen flaxen curls, brown eyes, crescent-shaped earrings, white shirt, silver sickle-shaped brooch - it was Xu Xinyang (Shaliye).
Seeing the man's warm face, Xiao Xiao hated it, and his body reacted more violently than his consciousness, and he retreated.
It's just that the man is not a vegetarian, seeing the little resisting movements and expressions, the man grabbed the little wrist with an unaffected smile, and then pulled the little woman into his arms with gentle force.
"You let go." The anger was crisp, but it was a pity that the man didn't pay attention to it at all.
"Although the weapon is commendable, the person is even better, and he can even detect my storage." He continued to speak to Edward, who was aiming the gun at him, and his subordinates had not been idle for small clamps, and it seemed that dual-purpose was his strength.
"You let me go, Jan."
"Why don't you call me Shaliye?" The man narrowed the distance between his faces, and his cold breath rushed to the small defensive distance, "Call me Ye from now on, I prefer you to call me like this." ”
Yes, he prefers Xiaoxiao's somewhat arrogant and petty tone to those dead-skinned, disgusting males who call him.
Something is wrong with this man!
Xiao Xiao felt that the cells in every inch of her skin that she was forced to come into contact with Shaliye were trembling.
This man is different from before, is it because what he said before was too much?
- What the hell is wrong with you? Are you Gu Xiaoxiao? You're not right, aren't you!
- Lord Shaliyeh, please take a good look at who I am.
I'm Gu Xiaoxiao, can't you see it? Are you crazy, stupid, or crippled......
――Is it because you have gone too far? I apologize and I'm sorry. Please, don't do that.
- Oh, Lord Death has lifted me up a bit...... How dare I accept your apology?
I'm going back, please let go.
Don't make me repeat it anymore, I'm tired.
…… Time flies.
yes, tired.
The body is, and so is the mind.
After that time, I thought it would be the last goodbye for the two of us.
I thought that as long as we never crossed paths again, I could hold on to my life.
But what are you going to do after I've hurt you?
"What the hell are you doing here, aren't we unrelated? You don't have any good to do with me! ”
I don't know if it will make him anxious if he says this, he stared at him a little angrily, and finally cut this long sentence in his throat.
The air was full of earthy smell, and Xiao frowned, the air made her sick, not because of the physiological meaning of the theory of reality, but because of an inexplicable feeling, but a disgust that made her judge without much thought.
"Put that gun away, you can't hit me."
"You can give it a try."
Edward showed a bloodthirsty anger, looked at him a little dazedly, and then stepped back a little frightened, but it was exactly what Shaliye wanted,
Shaliye wrapped her whole body around her small body, as petite as she was embedded in his arms.
Feeling too intimate, Xiaoxiao began to struggle, but couldn't open it.
"Don't move, Tiny. That's right, let me bring you back like that. ”
"I don't want it!" Little bared her teeth and blushed with anger.
Shaliye approached her, breathing closely, "If I don't pay attention, you will run into the ravine where this bird does not lay eggs, if I don't care about you, who knows where you will run again." ”
Before a "get out" was called, the man behind him let go of his hand.
The little wolf turned around and was about to kick him, but he didn't think he had fallen.
Naturally, the two knights who saved her, Xiao Xiao watched Xiaofa fall on Shaliye's face breathlessly, and the kitten "Bell" grabbed left and right, and was immediately happy.
After catching enough, the bell threw herself into the little one's arms.
"Meow" screamed one after another, and Xiao Xiao couldn't cry or laugh, always feeling as if the one who needed to be comforted was "Bell", and she was just being eaten tofu - making a big fuss.
"Damn." The man got up from the ground, the ivory light flashed on his body for a second, and the scars on his body disappeared in an instant, as usual, smooth skin, perfect bones, and a little pouting, this is cheating!
There is no such thing as fairness, but you should go wherever you want, do whatever you want, and if you are even deprived of your personal freedom, what is the meaning of living!
Xiao Xiao glared at the man, but fortunately, Shaliye didn't do anything to Xiao Fa because of the little memories he had when he was in the Nonsense Tree Forest before.
However, it is clear that he is hating the kitten "Bell" in his arms.
"You dare!"
A threatening sentence exploded countless rays of radiation between the two, becoming a barrier that blocked all threats.
Shaliye raised an eyebrow, and the breeze blew the beautiful broken hair on his forehead.
"It's mine, you dare to touch it!"
"If you don't move, you won't move!" The man put his hands in his pants pockets, "Then since you have a new love, this guy will give it to me." He picked up Xiaofa and waved it in front of Xiaoxiao's eyes, his smile was very bad, his movements were very bad, and every place was very bad.
stepped forward and snatched it, but it was empty.
"You give it to me!"
"No."
The man raised his hand with ease, and every time he flashed, Xiao Xiao felt frustrated, and he looked even more underwhelmed.
"Why didn't I know you were so bad!"
"Want to be gentle?"
"I don't want to."
"You give it to me!" Xiao Xiao was so angry that he stomped his feet.
Seeing the little woman in front of him blushing and rushing to Cheng Dù, who was satisfied, he withdrew his hand.
"Alright, here you go."
Xiaoxiao snatched Xiaofa, and then ran to Edward's side with a puff of smoke.
"Let's go." It's air like Shaliye, it's a road sign, it's a passerby, it's all good, she doesn't know it anyway.
The most surprising thing was that Edward actually accepted it, locked the car and walked with Xiaoxiao to the two lonely and abrupt logs.
Shaliye was a little helpless, but then cheekily followed.
"Look." Edward was the first to spot something lying in the grass.
Gu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to be the first to step on the overgrown grass and walked over, and then the man behind him also followed, only to see that what appeared in front of the three of them was a broken wooden board, and the English letters on it were splashed with black paint-like things.
"What does it mean?" Xiao asked.
"Welcome, Liberalbene."
Note: The prototype of Edward's special weapon gun in the article is the revolver invented by Browning - M1911A1, which is the most famous American pistol during World War II.
