Chapter 1: Dead and Alive
It's always colder at night by the sea. The stars in the sky shone brighter than the diamonds in the palace of King Qansar. The wind wrinkled the window screens, making it even more difficult to see the scenery in the distance, and the waves in the distance crashed against the rocks on the shore, playing a melody that had not changed for thousands of years.
The night is as cold as water, but the cold air always makes people feel more sober.
Mo Li stood on the balcony on the second floor, quietly looking into the distance. It was a silvery white beach, the sand was particularly delicate and soft, and whenever the waves crashed, the usual fine yarn shimmered like crystal. On the far side of the sea is a small island, and there is a man there, quietly waiting for the dawn to come. Is he, like himself, calmly thinking about his thoughts in the dark night?
No, he won't.
Mo Li smiled self-deprecatingly, how could a person like him have something on his mind? Even if there is, it will never have anything to do with itself. He won't change his state of mind because of something, he wants a cold-blooded killer, not an emotional person.
And what about yourself? How long has it been since it was as calm as it is today?
It seems that it has been a long time, and since the day he lost his parents, Mo Li's world is destined to be impossible to be peaceful again. The catastrophe fifteen years ago made an innocent little girl become silent, even though she looked plain as water on the surface, her face was as cold as ice, but in fact, her heart was not crying for a moment.
No matter how hard she trained, no one else had ever seen a trace of displeasure on her face, and even when the enemy's blood splashed on her body during the mission, no one else saw a trace of excitement in her eyes. She, don't leave. The first gold medal female killer of the Lieyan League, what she has is always a cool head and agile skills.
But in such an ice-like body, there is a heart that never gives up and screams. Only the voice shouted in her heart is the motivation for her to live. Anything can be calm, but the mind cannot be calm.
But tonight was destined to be different.
Maybe it's because the weather is particularly good tonight, or maybe it's because fifteen years of feuds are finally coming to an end. Mo Li's restless heart suddenly quieted down on this moonlit night, and the calm made her feel incredible.
Just when Mo Li was immersed in his thoughts, there was a slight noise behind him. Although the voice was very soft, but years of experience in the killing field made the well-trained Mo Li react immediately, Mo Li quickly turned around at the same time, his hand also touched the gun on his waist, and at the moment when she opened the safety and pointed the gun at the person, she suddenly heard a familiar voice in her ears.
"Hi~ It's me." Feng'er raised her hands and looked playful, as if she was not worried about the other party's gun at all.
"Feng'er?" As soon as he saw someone coming, Mo Li quickly put the gun away, put it back on his waist, and then returned to the balcony as if he didn't see anyone.
If Mo Li is in this world, there are people who can be relied on and trusted, then Feng'er is definitely one of them, they grew up together since childhood, training, eating, and sleeping together, they can be regarded as inseparable, even when they go out on a mission, they are also the absolute best partners, they have been helping each other through thick and thin, life and death over the years, so seeing her come, Mo Li is not surprised at all, at such an important moment, she is happy to have her best friend by her side.
Feng'er also seemed to be accustomed to Mo Li's indifference, and followed unmindfully: "Are you really going to go tomorrow?" This thing was like a big stone, pressing tightly on Feng'er's heart, making her almost breathless, and when she thought that there would be a life-and-death battle between Mo Li and that person, she felt like someone had choked her neck, and even gasping for breath became a luxury.
"It's settled, nothing can change." Mo Li lit a cigarette, sandwiched it between his fingers but did not smoke it, and the expression in the smoke was even more solemn. Fifteen years of grievances are coming to an end, and no matter whether they win or lose, they all have a result. Whether it's for yourself or your dead parents, you finally have an explanation.
"Mo Li, he ...... After all, he is our leader, and if it weren't for him, we might have died. Feng'er didn't understand why Yiqiē came so suddenly, she wasn't ready to accept such news.
Under the moonlight, Mo Li turned his head to look at Feng'er and said lightly: "Then, I'd rather be dead." "Yes, if fifteen years ago, I also died, then the current one qiē would not be so complicated.
At this time, she was still calm, and she didn't seem to catch any relevant feelings on her face, but the wind that was close to her noticed that her breath was messed up, and what was in her eyes was not just hatred.
It turned out that she still cared.
"Baby, I know, nothing can ...... Shake your mind, it's just that I'm really conflicted right now. Feng'er lowered her head, trying not to let Mo Li see the tears in her eyes.
Hearing that Feng'er seemed to have something to say, Mo Li turned to look at her, waiting for her next step.
Feng'er looked at this friend and friend who had grown up together since childhood, and she suddenly felt that she didn't know her, she knew that this girl named Mo Li still had too many things on her back. In the past fifteen years, everything she has brought to the people around her is a disguise, and no one can see through her heart.
"Don't you want to say something to me?" There was an inquiring tone in her tone, and she wondered why, why the two most important people to her had come to this point.
Mo Li sighed, thought about it, and said helplessly: "Feng'er, do you know? Today is the most peaceful night in the past 15 years. Fifteen years ago, my parents were killed in a conspiracy, and I was only six years old and watched them die in front of me. Pain, helplessness, confusion, fear, I didn't even know I could live. But this kind of life is meaningless, there is no joy, there is no hope. Some are just pain, or nightmares. ”
"Every one of us here is actually burdened with hatred......" she tried to enlighten her, but she didn't want to make the last move until she had to.
"Feng'er, you don't understand." Mo Li interrupted her and said: "I am different from you, although I was also rescued by the leader, but fifteen years ago, he killed my beloved parents with his own hands, and he was the enemy who killed my parents. ”
"Oh God." Feng'er was a little incredulous, no wonder, no wonder Mo Li said that this was a knot that could not be untied.
"I still remember the scene when he was driving a black car and blocking our way on a mountain road. I watched him point his black muzzle at my father and shoot him in the center of the eyebrow, and you know what it was like? My mom hugged me and was shaking. I was so scared that I even cried. When the gun was pointed at my mother, I even saw her pupils dilate unconsciously, and blood splattered all over me, do you know what it was like? I don't know why he didn't kill me, but brought me back, but in the past fifteen years, I have been thinking day and night about how to kill him, so I will not give up. Taking a deep breath, Mo Li patted his friend's shoulder. The tacit understanding between the two is enough for them to understand the meaning of doing it.
No wonder Mo Li kills people, it always hits the eyebrows with one shot, it turns out that there is such a story.
"Mo Li, he taught us everything, you can't kill him at all." He knew everyone here, but they didn't know him, and it was a battle without suspense.
Mo Li didn't speak, his eyes looked firmly into the distance, and there was the place they had made an appointment.
Feng'er knew that as long as Mo Li made up her mind, no one could change her.
Don't leave, don't blame me. Although you can't kill him, he will definitely die, and he will die in your hands, and he is afraid that he will be willing.
Just when Mo Li turned around to leave, she suddenly felt a trace of danger behind her, and at the moment she woke up, her body quickly reacted to dodge, but it was still half a beat late.
Mo Li only felt the familiar sound of gunfire ringing in her ears, which she was familiar with, Walther P99 with a silencer......
Mo Li only felt a heat in her chest, and it was obvious that she had been shot. If the person who fired the shot was someone else, the shot must not hit his own vital point. However, the shooter knew all her evasion routes, and this shot was very accurate.
Mo Li smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that she would die in this situation, not in the mission, not in his hands, this person ......
"Feng'er, you always have your reasons, let me die to understand!" Mo Li found that she was almost out of strength to speak now.
"Sorry, Mo Li, he can't die, I love him, I have loved him from the beginning, but he never loved me, he only loves you alone. I can't let him die, so you have to die. The next moment, Feng'er's face suddenly turned hideous, and she raised her gun again without hesitation, pointing it at Mo Li's eyebrows......
Just as she was about to buckle the trigger, Mo Li suddenly took out a small flying knife from her waist and threw it at Feng'er with all her strength......
When someone puts you on the brink of death, even if it is death, you have to pull him along. This is a rule that everyone in the alliance knows, and the habit cultivated over the years made Mo Li almost subconsciously make a move.
Before the gunshots rang out, Feng'er's body fell straight back, her eyes widened angrily, as if she didn't believe in her fate, her eyes were full of resentment and unwillingness. Why, how did the three of them get to where they are today?
"What's the trouble of losing both!" Mo Li clutched his chest and said: "Originally, I didn't want to let him die, Feng'er, I can rush my back to your muzzle on the killing field, and trust you unconditionally." Why don't you believe me in love? How could I possibly let the person you and I both love die at my hands......"
The night is still calm.
