"Little ...... Bamboo. ”

There was a dull pain in his chest, his head seemed intact, and in a trance he could only see a clear sky.

I don't know why, now I just want to hug her tightly.

"It's time for us to go back after school, brother?"

"yes, go back, you can't stay in this ...... anymore"

"Brother? Wake up. ”

The chaos and smoke were gone, but I couldn't hear what she was saying, because ......

In the blurred vision, it should be a cute and fair little face, which is blood-red for some reason at the moment.

It's that she's been working silently, probably expressed in this blood red.

"Brother? You okay? ”

No...... Very good, Wen Cheng muttered weakly.

The heart was pounding and accelerating, like a sign of death, and the blood was squeezed and almost burst out of the chest.

Hold, hold, these words just echo in my head.

Keep this girl who belongs only to me, keep this slender arm, cute face, small body, and keep this unworldly doll.

"Brother, hold on, I'll ......"

As the head in his arms drooped, Xiaozhu's voice disappeared.

◇

When Wen Cheng woke up from his hospital bed, he found that the air was fresh beyond reality, but it also carried a hint of blood.

His gaze quickly fell to the girl beside him.

Su Meng stood on the side of the bed, she used to be much gentler, but recently she began to slowly become expressionless, but the warm little hand on his forehead trembled slightly, I don't know if it was out of self-blame or unease.

She looked to the other side of Wen Cheng.

At first glance, it's hard to figure out who the bloody doll lying on the bed next to it will be, but the breathing slowly rises and falls, and the dropped shoulders scattered on the pillow are reassuring.

As Wen Cheng woke up, Xiaozhu also woke up slowly, because the anesthetic needle was about to fail, and blood was constantly oozing from the bandage, she clutched the sheets hidden in the quilt and endured to prevent herself from screaming, but the painful expression showed everything.

Erosion all over the body.

Xiaozhu, who found that his brother saw it for the first time, immediately struggled to turn his back, but at that moment, Wen Cheng couldn't forgive himself even more.

The white sheets were a large area of blood red as the quilt was opened.

"Wen Cheng, the healing device can't recognize the Heroic Spirit...... Sidgar is not there...... So ......"

At that moment, Wen Cheng's switch seemed to be smashed, and unknown guilt poured out like a spring, he did not choose to call Xiaozhu, but slowly got up, such hesitation was interrupted by Xiaozhu.

"It's okay brother...... I'll just take a break. ”

The sound is crisper than expected.

"Hmm......" Wen Chengran his throat and said, "Let's sleep a little longer." ”

"Hmmm......"

Wen Cheng gave Su Meng a heavy look, and Su Meng sat down next to Xiaozhu and held her bandaged hand.

Then Ning Ran knocked on the door, and Wen Cheng, who had changed back into his shirt, was taken to a room by her, and Liu Zhen was sitting next to him.

It was six o'clock in the evening. The location is the Commission's Shinnokumi's separate office.

In short, Wen Cheng didn't have much of the heart to think about the war situation during this time, and he quickly understood the silence that Liu Zhen and Su Meng showed at the same time.

He also had to face the reality that the cave had collapsed, the Mirror Pavilion had stopped functioning in a ruin, and dozens of members of the Yu family, including Yu Zheng and Yu Xin, had all died.

According to Liu Zhen's explanation, when the Mirror Pavilion ceased to exist, the spirit cores of Yu Xiao and Xu Yan would fall into nothingness, and they would continue to wander in that moment of eternity.

The good news is that Rumei was slightly injured, Aesop's ministry was completely wiped out, the Muggle system and the committee took into account the contribution of the True Group and acquiesced to the True Group's occupation of Laohe Mountain, Hadi did not answer the phone, and the Yuan family was still preparing for the old man's funeral.

On the other hand, the remnants of Aesop discouraged the idea of the spiritual veins around the city and hid in the suburbs to wait for Asmo's instructions.

Hey?

Why can't you listen to it?

In short, no matter what she was saying, Wen Cheng couldn't listen to a word of Ning Ran's report.

Since my vision is to unify the magic world for Liu Zhen, didn't Lao Heshan take the spirit vein? Why can't you be happy?

Because my sister is injured?

No, my sister is stronger than anyone else, and I don't need to comfort her.

Because Xu Yan was lost.

This time the main combat objective was lost, disappearing into the void.

The mission failed.

"Team leader, not only now, but also in the future," Ning Ran patted the back of his hand to bring him back to his senses, "We all need to learn to accept this. ”

Even if I'm dead, you have to accept it.

At least seeing Wen Cheng with a hint of loss, he was not as firm as Ning Ran expected.

A mission is something that continues even after a failure.

The world is real, and we have to face the fact that the mission has failed. If Xu Yan disappears, then the next chief engineer will have to be found, and the next one will die, and then the next one.

Even if you have the ability to loop, don't abuse it. Staring at him like this.

"Little smoke ......" Wen Cheng muttered, and Liu Zhen, who seemed to be aroused by the same fragments, got up and came to the window, overlooking the West Lake under the sky.

Sometimes attacking or defending doesn't always get the job done. But......

In the midst of the endless nightmare just now, the child seemed to have the smile I had hoped for, and she and I shared longing.

"Find me as soon as possible, Brother Wen Cheng."

"That," Ryu Zhen said suddenly, "...... now"

It seems to be an inappropriate topic, but Wen Cheng in the setting sun began to look at her.

"Now I seem to remember when I graduated from junior high school, my dream was a small success," Liu Zhen smiled briefly, "At least I didn't think it was great the moment I turned into magma, but now that I think about it, it may have been a gap." I think you'll understand. ”

"I don't want to understand these mysteries," Wen Cheng said in a deep voice after drinking a glass of water, "You and Yu Xiao understand...... That's why you're amazing. ”

But I know that my judgment criteria are different from everyone else's, that is, no matter what the environment considers me, I will persistently go to one goal, and until this goal is achieved, I will propose the next one.

"So the nuclear source or something," Wen Cheng continued, "has nothing to do with me. ”

"I didn't mean that......" Ryu Zhen frowned, but her voice was much softer, "So far, only your answer on this question is completely different. ”

Most magicians have made it their goal to penetrate the nuclear source, and I know that this is an even greater pain.

For Liu Zhen, Wen Cheng's answer is not a refutation, but a certain virtue of letting go.

Wen Cheng didn't mean to continue on this topic, there were four words swirling in his mind at the moment: faith anyway.

He gave Liu Zhen a look, and Liu Zhen instantly understood.

It doesn't matter what he believes, whatever he does, anyway, I just need a little cigarette.

The two nodded quietly, and at the same time summoned the strength of their arms to prepare for suicide.

Ning Ran, who had been observing words and expressions, wanted to stop them, but normal questions didn't help, so she asked a fatal question,

"What if the anchor point is engraved on the outside of the loop this time?"
