When I rushed back to Qi You's house, it was about four o'clock in the afternoon. And then when I used the key to unlock the door, I was surprised to find that the door of Qi You's house was simply locked - there were people in the house.

I pushed open the door and saw that there was no one in the living room, and the door of Qi You's room was closed, so I stepped forward, raised my hand and tapped the door twice, and said tentatively:

"Qi... Bless? ”

“…… Uncle, you're back. A few seconds later, Qi You's response came from the room, through the door.

"Why did you come back so early today?" I instinctively felt that something was not quite right with Qi You's state.

"......" waited for a moment, but no one responded.

"Are you sick? If you don't feel well, I'll find you some medicine..."Before my words fell, there was a rush of footsteps in the room, and then, the door was slammed open from the inside, and Qi You's figure came out of the crack in the open door, and then threw himself into my arms.

"What's wrong?" I was a little overwhelmed, and after a few seconds of stalemate, I had to place my dangling hands on her shoulders.

Qi You buried his face in my chest and said in a vague voice: "Brother Lele, Brother Lele, is he ......?"

“…… Well. After a long silence, I let out a low murmur from my nose.

After hearing my response, Qi You's body trembled even more.

"Why...... Brother Lele is gone, and after tomorrow, you, you will also leave. Speaking of this, Qi You's voice was already mixed with crying, "I'm left alone again." You're on me... So good...... It's been a long time since I've had a lot of fun like this, for... Why is this happening..."

If we don't stop the infection of alien organisms, then a tragedy like ours will surely behave on many more people after the seven-day period is over. So, for the sake of the future of all mankind, I have to do it.

Everyone understands the truth, but after these experiences, I can't say the above high-sounding words at all.

I stroked Qi You's long hair, raised my head slightly, my eyes were a little itchy, my nose was astringent, and my vision to the ceiling was a little blurred by something, like a hazy mist.

If my high school classmates had seen my weakness at this time, they would have laughed at me again.

But I can't cry now, especially in front of a little girl, it's too low, even if I'm suppressing intense sadness in my heart at the moment.

"Uncle, you say...... Why am I able to feel alien beings? ”

"Why did you suddenly ask about this?"

"Could it be, will it be because... For I am the seventh alien being, the mysterious ...... Alien Leader? ”

！！

The words that came out of Qi You's mouth made my heartbeat stop at this moment, losing its original beat. I froze in place, my mind blank, and I just felt that everything around me was leaving me—the cry of Qi You in my ears, the ordinary but warm home I was in at the moment, my perception, my space, and time......

I had certainly considered this reason beforehand, but whenever my mind wandered to the subject, I immediately resisted moving elsewhere. So, when this topic was really said from Qi You's mouth, I couldn't think of how to answer it at all.

"Uncle..."

“……”

"You talk..."

“……”

"I ...... Am I the last alien being... You say!! Qi You's emotions that had been suppressed for a long time finally broke out at this moment.

The fabric on my chest was soaked with Qi You's tears, and the wet touch hit my heart through the clothes and through my chest.

I opened my mouth, but finally closed weakly, and the action was repeated over and over again, as if I were playing the same video clip over and over again.

"Uncle... I'm right, that's why I've been slow to discover the seventh Primordial Alien Being, because she's been hiding among humans all along, and she's naïve enough to save them. ”

"I'm not only an outlier among humans, I'm also an outlier among alien beings, right......"

When she said this, Qi You's emotions actually calmed down abnormally, she let go of her hands that were tightly gripping my shirt, spread her arms, and then wrapped her arms around my waist, and continued to increase the strength.

"Big... Xiu Thorn, you speak, you haven't spoken, I feel so blocked in my heart. ”

"You say, when I disappear, will I go to another world? Will he meet Brother Lele there, and will he still be as good to me as before? ”

"You...... Don't think about it. "I know I'm pale at the moment, and the comforting words that come out of my mouth may be the opposite.

"That makes sense, why I came to your world and got you involved in such an incident." Qi You rubbed his head on my chest, "It's okay, I'm already very satisfied, I've been really happy these days." By the way, I dreamed about you and me, as well as Brother Lele and my parents, and we got together for dinner. It was a wonderful feeling, it was like being there, and I'll never forget it. ”

"No, it won't!" I interrupted her, "How can you be the last alien lifeform, don't think too much about it. ”

Qi You raised her face, a smile slowly rose on her little face stained with tears, she shook her head lightly, looked at me and said:

"Uncle, do you remember the incident of 'there was an outbreak of infection in a high-end community, but in the end the source of the disease could not be found'? It is because of this incident that people have speculated about the 'leader of the alien lifeforms'. ”

"I've heard the name of the neighborhood before, and it was this morning – my new English teacher lives there, he's taken over from Mr. Yao, he's a good teacher, and he's getting ready to tutor each of us students with low scores."

In the end, the smile on Qi You's face had turned into a bitter but relieved smile, and tears overflowed her eyes again.

“…… It's—maybe it's just a coincidence, maybe I'm the 'leader'!" If I disappear, your world will return to its normal trajectory, and then it will all be over! It has nothing to do with you! You trust me! By the end of my life, my voice had become hoarse and frantic.

"Uncle... You don't have to comfort me anymore. Qi You rubbed the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, but he couldn't dry the tears that continued to flow, "Uncle, accompany me to Fangte Kingdom tomorrow!" ”

"What... Is it? ”

"It's our biggest playground, I've never been to it, I was going to go with my classmates this vacation, but I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't have a chance again. ”

“……”

"Okay, come with me, please. Speaking of which, I haven't skipped school yet. Tomorrow is my birthday, remember the first time you met me and identified yourself to me, you won't forget it, right? ”

"Nope!" I said immediately.

Qi You curled the corners of his lips happily, his eyes half-narrowed with joy were still flowing with tears, "Then come with me, it will be a birthday gift for me." ”

Saying that, Qi You hurriedly ran to her room, and after a while, she ran back quickly, with three more paper tickets in her hand, "This is Brother Lele secretly sent me yesterday, he is much more careful than you, he originally, originally wanted to wake you up while you were sleeping, and then ...... with us" Qi You suddenly couldn't say any more, she threw herself into my arms again.

This time, instead of suppressing the grief in her heart, she began to cry loudly.
