Section 10 Monster Battles (8)
a day ago.
As dusk falls, the sky darkens with deep blue and grey – a canopy that evokes old neighborhoods, black mourning dresses and Latin inscriptions.
- In a hospital.
It's not so much a hospital as a sanatorium, with a quiet and fresh environment with a tall building at the end of a huge garden.
In one of the buildings, in the white marble floor, the man in a black suit standing respectfully in front of a certain door saw the figure stepping into the hallway, and his expression was grim, until he saw the person who came—a crack appeared on the face of the resolute line, which was replaced by a little surprise.
He just made a sound, so low that almost no one could hear it, and then he came back to his senses and took it: "Mr. Jiang." ”
Jiang Li tilted his head: "When is it?" He glanced at the door.
"When I messaged you."
"Oh."
Without further speaking, the man in the suit took a step back, bent slightly, and opened the door.
The environment is too quiet, and the sound of opening the door is a drop of water falling into the water, and there is a dingdong.
Jiang Li walked in.
——The man in the suit silently closed the door, with a very "respectful" attitude, which could make everyone who knew Jiang Li startled, thinking that he had hugged the thigh of a rich woman...... No.
The room was rather dark—it seemed cautious, as if it didn't want to alarm the dying man lying on the bed, as if it would allow one to exist a little longer. Wonderful Study..
Even so, the person lying on the bed sensed his coming.
A low and hoarse voice pronounced a name with difficulty and a bit of "indifference".
Jiang Li responded.
"The Times...... It's over. And the man said.
"Don't count, it's just that there's no need to fight anymore." Jiang Li said slowly, he walked to the side of the bed and looked at the person lying in the shadows-
The human figure covered in bandages all over his body really wrapped himself in a mummy or something, and his exposed eyes were already closed—he couldn't open them for a long time, and naturally he couldn't see Jiang Carp at this moment.
"But...... ......"
"It has nothing to do with me." Jiang Li turned his head to look at the portrait on the side, and said slowly—his tone was not heavy, but he was very resolute, "I came to see you today." ”
There was silence again.
There was a long silence.
"We will march with the sword...... Carving out ...... in a hypocritical and miserable world Road. ”
Jiang Li heard the words that sounded from the mouth of the bandaged man who didn't know when-
The last two words were almost inaudible, Jiang Li felt a cool breeze blowing, and when he came back to his senses, the person lying on the bed had not moved.
The last sentence was accompanied by a final breath and ended quietly.
The bell tower in the distance seemed to have sensed that the bell was ringing at this moment - as if a famous influence had been sent off at a grand funeral, but in fact few people knew about the hero's death. Wonderful Study..
People have sung about the deeds of heroes, but they never know how they are getting to a bleak ending because of their glory.
Jiang Li didn't speak for a long time, and for a while felt that such a picture would never be seen again.

"After all, she's different...... Isn't it? ”
At dusk, Jiang Li stood in the alley not far from the school, and smiled slowly when he heard such an inquiry, noncommittal.
"yes, it's like an emotionless machine."
Sand......
It was at this moment that Jiang Li turned his head - the black-haired girl stood a few meters away with a blank face.
Ahh
Bai Chen almost effortlessly smashed the ash world—he saw this scene as soon as he walked out of the school gate.
No more, no less, I heard this sentence.
"Ah, Xiao Chen." Her attention shifted to something else because of the sound—the woman who had come out of the shadows.
Very beautiful woman, with black hair, dyed a faint purple at the ends, and a gentle smile on her face - the long dress on her body was exactly the same as she remembered.
“…… Clay. Bai Chen "recognized" her.
She doesn't know what Sumire looks like, but she recognizes her when she appears in front of her.
"I heard about the fire and came back. It's been hard lately. Sumire nodded slightly, walked over, and patted her on the head.
Sumire walked past Jiang Li—Jiang Li suddenly laughed, something else, but it was too light, so that the reunited "mother and daughter" probably didn't notice.
Bai Chen didn't speak, just looked at her quietly.
"I'll take you home." Sumire said again.
Bai Chen looked at her, and then at Jiang Li, who was looking at the corner of the street and didn't know what he was thinking, with the same smile on his face as usual, his gaze quickly retracted, and he nodded.
"Okay, I heard that you were taken in by Teacher Jiang for a while...... Thank you so much. Sumire took her hand and turned to look at the carp.
"It's a little thing." Jiang Li waved his hand, "I'll go over and take the things away later." ”
"Okay." Sumire answered for Bai Chen—her smile was as gentle as ever.
——
——
Bai Chen didn't know why, so he followed Sumire back to his new home.
She didn't talk much along the way, obviously a minute before hearing Jiang Li's words, "she" was still chattering, and she was bound to say what she looked like.
But by this time, everything was quiet.
She was also able to quietly step into Sumire's new home-
It belongs to the style of Sumire, not a very big home, and there are not many things, but there are some small things everywhere to decorate the environment, reflecting the heart and love of life everywhere.
- Bai Chen could feel all this in her.
"Eat more." Another example is that there are a few home-cooked dishes on the table - Sumire smiled and sandwiched a chopstick potato for her, "I see you have lost a lot of weight." ”
Bai Chen nodded.
"You're still as talkative as you used to." Sumire had a smile on her lips - the light above her head had shrouded her in a warm yellow light, very warm.
"Your work ......" As if he heard a hint of reproach that could almost be said to be absent, Bai Chen slowly spoke.
"It's okay, anyway, I'm not in a hurry, I'll accompany you first." Sumire smiled, "It's been a busy few years, but to be honest, it's an excuse...... Since I brought you home, I still can't go home because of these things, it's my fault, and I won't be in the future. ”
Bai Chen was silent for a moment.
To be honest, she didn't know what this silence made her feel about – she never knew what sadness and emotion were.
Later, Sumire told her a lot of things.
Sumire is a very good woman—Bai Chen has measured it by some of the standards he knows.
Sumire is very good-looking, gentle and virtuous, has a good hall and a kitchen, and her education can be said to be an elite level - I don't know why, Bai Chen feels that she is a person who never gets angry and has hope for everything she is in.
Even if...... Being in some abyss, most likely, is also possible.
I don't know why, but that's what she thinks. Pen Fun Library .
