Volume 2: The Holy War of Blood Chapter 88: Smile
When Glenn opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar room, and his head was still aching.
"Where is this?" Glenn struggled to sit up, "How did I get here?"
"It's my home. Alina walked in the door, "You passed out last night without knowing what happened, so I took you back to my house." ”
"Is this your home?" Glenn got up from his bed and stood on the floor, his legs still trembling slightly. "You shouldn't have brought me back, it's too dangerous for you. ”
"I can't just leave you on the side of the road. Alina poured a glass of water and handed it to Glenn, "You are my benefactor anyway, and I will never be able to do anything if I am left alone." ”
"You're just so kind. Glenn took the cup and drank it down, "Sometimes being too kind can lead to unimaginable trouble. ”
"But I believe that the world needs kindness. Alinor opened the curtains as she spoke, and a blinding orange-red light burst through the window, causing Glenn to squint.
"What time is it?" Glenn suddenly realized something, "Tell me quickly, what time is it?"
"Now?" Alina glanced at the time of the watch on her wrist, "It should be 17:37 p.m., the sun should be about to set, what, is there anything important about this time?"
I guessed right. Glenn couldn't help but blame himself in his heart, those orange-red lights were obviously the afterglow of the setting sun, if that was the case, then he would have to leave to go back now.
"I almost missed a big deal. Glenn immediately began to straighten his outfit, "I have to get back quickly, and I can't be late no matter what, not even for a minute." ”
"Wait a minute, please. Alina looked at Glenn, who was busy, and said, "You haven't fully recovered yet, so you can't just go out and walk around." ”
"What's the big deal with my life?" Glenn didn't stop moving, though his head was still aching. "I have to do something, not for myself, but so that the souls I have hurt may rest in peace. ”
"I said no. Alina grabbed Glenn's arm, "You're in a very bad state right now, how can I be relieved to let you out like this?"
"Leave me alone!" Glenn shook Alina's hand away, "You should have heard last night what kind of person I am, Alina, leave me alone, this is to atone for my sins, that's the only reason I'm fighting now." ”
"I don't know what you're fighting against, but you can't do anything just to atone for your sins!" Alina finally shouted out the words that had been suppressed in her heart.
"What did you say?" Glenn looked at Alina in surprise, and now Alina's eyes flashed with tears, but the look pierced Glenn's heart, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"I said you can't do anything. "You just want to die, Glenn, I know what you're thinking, you just want to die, am I right?"
"My death is atonement!" said Glenn, gritting his teeth, he didn't expect his inner thoughts to be fully understood by the girl in front of him. "That's the only thing I can do as a wicked person. ”
"You can't win just to fight to die. Alina grabbed Glenn's hand again, "I know you're remorseful, your heart is suffering all the time, but you must not fight with such faith!"
"It doesn't make sense anymore. Glenn's tone darkened, "My life is completely meaningless, my fight has no reason at all, and now I don't even know what to fight for." ”
Looking at the man in front of her, Alina felt very sad in her heart, she couldn't bear to see Glenn suffer so much, and even wanted to let herself suffer instead of him, this feeling was so strong, she didn't want Glenn to leave her from the bottom of her heart.
Why is this so? Alina finally understood her heart completely: she loved this man, perhaps from the first time they met, and after a few days of getting along, this relationship was intensifying, and finally became such a fiery love as it is now.
"You come with me. After a moment of silence, Alinor pulled Glenn outside the house, and the orange-red sunset shone on Glenn's face, making his already cold skin suddenly feel a hint of warmth.
Alina's home is located along the River Thames, the river reflects the orange sunset, and the river is flowing in an orderly manner, and occasionally a fresh breeze blows, making the boats moored in the river also sway slightly.
"What a beautiful place. Glenn exclaimed, "I've often walked along the Thames, but I've never seen this neighborhood, no, I guess I chose to ignore these sights myself." ”
On the bank of the river, you can see an old man fishing, his expression seems leisurely, as if he has completely integrated with this scenery, and it looks even more poetic against the backdrop of this sunset.
In addition to the old fishermen, there were three or four children playing with the shore, and they were laughing happily, the young children were always idle and carefree, and their brass bell-like laughter was even more heartwarming.
I used to dream of being like them. Looking at the children playing, Glenn's eyes unconsciously moistened, how I wished I could play like them in that extremely dark orphanage, and I also wanted to laugh out loud!
A gust of wind blew across his face, and in an instant Glenn felt as if his head had been completely healed, and he felt that his whole body and mind had been completely relaxed, something he had never felt before.
"It's beautiful, that's how we ordinary people live. "It's too ordinary to be ordinary, but we like to live this way because we choose it." ”
In the setting sun, Alina's face looked even more beautiful, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be burning in the sunset, she was so elegant and natural, but her every move deeply attracted Glenn's attention.
She was laughing, Glenn thought to herself as she looked at Alina. Alina did smile, just like those innocent children, and their smiles warmed his heart like the sun in the sky.
"Please live, Glenn. Alinor took Glenn's hand and said, "Please fight to survive no matter what, because I don't want you to leave me like this, so please live!"
Tears rolled down the corners of Alina's eyes, and the sight pierced Glenn's heart deeply, he had never experienced that someone would ask for it to keep him alive.
"What will the world become?" said Alina as she watched the sun fade into the sky, "Maybe we may not even see tomorrow morning, but we are still alive, don't give up hope, isn't that why we can survive!?"
"I know you're carrying a lot of things, Glenn. Alina put her hand on Glenn's chest, "But your heart is still beating, so there is still hope for everything, so please live on, can you promise me?"
If I fail, then all of this will be gone. Glenn couldn't help but think to himself, whether it was Aliana's smile or the children's laughter, it would be gone! What was this feeling of reluctance? I was going to fight, to be able to make them smile again!
"You smile beautifully. Glenn suddenly said, "That's the best smile I've ever seen, can you smile me again?"
"What are you talking about?" said Elina, who listened to Glenn's request, and smiled sheepishly. "I'm obviously talking about something very important right now, what does it matter if I laugh or not?"
"That's the smile. Looking at Alina who was laughing, Glenn finally smiled. "I'll never forget this smile in my life, even if it's for this smile, I'll live!"
"You promised me. Alina asked excitedly, "No regret, no matter what happens, please come back to me alive!"
"I won't go back. Glenn stroked Alina's face with both hands, "I've found my reason to fight, and for that reason, I'll definitely come back alive!"
Alina finally couldn't help it, she hugged Glenn's body and sobbed, and Glenn also hugged her very lovingly and gently, in this twilight, the hearts of the two completely understood each other at this moment.
For the sake of people's smiles, for this piece of true peace, I will fight! Not for the sake of death, but for these truly precious things, for these things that people cannot give up, fight to the end!
The time is almost up. Renault sat on the steps in front of the door, waiting for the return of some man. It's time to come back, Glenn, and you've found a real reason to fight.
"I'm back, Renault. As soon as Renault thought like this, Glenn had come to him unconsciously, and at this moment, Renault could not find the sense of confusion in his eyes at all.
"Looks like you've found a reason to fight. Renaud smiled and said, "That girl can actually enter your inner world, which I never thought of before." ”
"She made me realize that there are so many precious things in this world that are worth fighting for. Glenn's eyes were unusually determined, "In order to be able to see that heartfelt smile again, I will fight to the end." ”
"That's right, Glenn. Renault stood up, "That's why it's worth fighting, those are the most precious things, the things that are worth fighting for our lives!"
"So, everything is ready, isn't it?" Glenn laughed, "You should have all the preparations in place during my absence, right?"
"It has been prepared for a long time. Renault took out two bags from behind him, "Put everything on, and we'll leave as soon as the time comes." ”
Glenn took the bag thrown by Renault, looked at the bag in his hand, and couldn't help but smile: "Finally, this time has come, and the hope of mankind is firmly held by you and me!
