Chapter 42: The Old Man Is Missing

Dust's figure shuttled slowly. He was constantly perceiving whether there was still a unique aura around him. During the day, the place where the sun can shine is at least safe, as long as you don't set foot in the shadows. However, after searching for a long time, Dust still did not find the breath of other living people. With a huge Apocalypse City and a population of tens of millions, is it true that there is not even one person left?

Dust suddenly remembered what he had done last night, just to find ordinary people he felt worthy of protection, but he pushed everyone else into the abyss, into the point of no return. Although they know that they will not be able to continue to live, this is also caused by their own indirect actions.

Is it worth it?, he asked himself. Suddenly, he heard someone reply to him: It's worth it. Make an affirmative choice for him, whether the emotion is good or bad, right or wrong. All in all, it's Dust's own choice.

Let's go back to the hotel first, and send the little girl to Nuo's side first. By the way, and her grandfather.

Chen immediately rushed back to the hotel, returned to the room, and saw Wu Yun's little girl sitting on the bed with some anxiety in her heart.

"Brother Xiaochen, are you back?" Seeing that Chen suddenly appeared in front of her, she felt very happy. Maybe she had a lot of anxiety and anxiety before, but the moment she saw the dust, everything disappeared.

"Well, I'll pick you up. Send you to a safe place. "After taking a bath, the little girl who changed her clothes was very amazing, which made Chen feel a sense of brightness. Although the cheekbones are a little thin, and the body is petite compared to children of the same age, it must be caused by malnutrition. But this still can't hide the beauty and cuteness that belongs to her.

There were still many scars left on her face, which made him touch her face with some distress, "Does it hurt?"

She shook her head, "It doesn't hurt." ”

Because she had experienced more bitter and painful pain, the kind of pain that went straight to the heart, was far from being comparable to the pain of flesh and skin.

He didn't know her past, but when he saw that a little girl could be so strong, he couldn't help but feel more pity in his heart.

"Let's go. Dust took the girl's little hand and led her back to the gymnasium. Now the dust is more familiar with the skill of spatial displacement. In the past, he only allowed himself to carry out spatial displacement, but after last night's fierce battle, between life and death, he was quite proficient in this skill, at least he could carry out displacement with people.

Growing up in battle is also a consideration for Huaxia.

He wanted the girl to awaken her abilities and protect herself in these troubled times, and he didn't want her to awaken her abilities because it meant that she was going to be on the battlefield of the night...... But no matter how much he wanted to, the girl's awakening ability was out of the question, and he had already saved her, which was all possibility.

"Hey, Brother Xiaochen......" She was a little shy, but still mustered up the courage to ask, "Can I ...... With my grandpa, huh...... Do you want to live with you?" Wu Yun looked expectantly, and it could be seen that she was very concerned about the answer to this question.

Dust was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but smile and touch her hair, soft. He knew it wasn't possible. In the days to come, he will almost always be accompanied by demons, neighbors of darkness, and walk in the world without a fixed place. For the sake of the whole world, the home of all people, it is the responsibility of the Adepts.

If the tall man does not stand up, there will only be less room for survival.

"Brother, no. My brother still has a lot to do. Seeing her eyes dim, he felt another pang in his heart. There is really a magical power of night that can extend time indefinitely, even though there is only one night, but it is as long as five or six years.

An hour is a year. Dust didn't know that he had become a kind of support for the little girl, different from the kind of affection given by her grandfather, but for a six- or seven-year-old girl, love was not realistic.

Feelings of gratitude, feelings of attachment? Well, this explanation should be relatively good. Chen is also very helpless, he also loves this little girl very much in his heart, but if nothing else, she and her grandfather should be transferred to the city called Yunhai, where all the ordinary people who survived the night but did not have the ability to awaken.

Her future and destiny, at least for a short time, will belong there.

"My brother will come to see you. Chen said softly: "In the new environment, you can get the best life, you can go to school to study, and you can make many, many good friends...... You're going to love that. ”

"But ......," whispered the girl, "there is no brother." ”

Dust sighed, said no more, snapped his fingers, and he left the hotel with her.

The next second or a few seconds, the dust is not very clear, all in all, the error will not be more than three seconds, and he will arrive at his destination accurately.

"Dust?" No, noticing the little girl he was holding next to him, as if it was the same girl he had seen in the night before.

"She ......" Nuo was interrupted by Dust before she could finish speaking, "I saved her, so there should be no awakening ability, you can greet her more, and her grandfather." Brother No, I'll have to ask you for help later. ”

Nuo nodded, probably the girl in front of him is what Dust said, the person worth saving, right?

"Brother, where are you going?" the girl asked pitifully. She now only trusts Chen, and she is afraid of herself

"I'll go find her grandfather first. ”

Dust snapped his fingers, the figure disappeared, and the space flickered.

He immediately rushed to the place where he had told them not to move around. It's a relatively hidden location, and as long as it's not shouting loudly or making a very shrill sound, it's basically impossible to be detected.

However, no one was there.

Even the car they drove with them was gone.

Dust suddenly felt that something was wrong, although he had told them not to leave this place, the girl was indeed an accident, but it could also be attributed to her inner uneasiness or curiosity. But the old man is different, he is an old man after all, he is still wise and discerning between right and wrong, how can he not believe in the possibility of this whole incident happening?

However, the facts are in front of you, the old man is really gone, from beginning to end, completely, as if the world has evaporated. Dusty face, trying to make some traces around, however, there was no at all.

The silence of the city was terrible, the dark clouds dispersed, the dawn shone on the world, the snow turned into meltwater, and the cold had a hint of warmth. Deeper, however, no one notices that tiny parts evaporate from the sunlight, return to the clouds of nowhere, and land somewhere, reopening their own untold stories.

Dust patrolled again and again, but he didn't find even a clue. Now it's not the problem, after all, things have happened, and there is no way to dwell on it anymore, I'm not strong enough, and the night is a beast that devours everything, constantly eating and digesting every moment. And the old man was just an ordinary person among them. In the vast night, in the black world, the sea of ghosts is like a tide, and he is also sighing in this world.

The old man was gone, and he had hoped that the girl would take her grandfather back, but he couldn't.

Instead of snapping his fingers and turning around, he turned around silently and decided to go first to the people in the city who were still alive, they needed someone to guide them, and he couldn't afford to spend his time here.

"I'm sorry. Dust silently said sorry to the little girl in his heart.

Soon, the girl will be sent away to a place where no one knows and lives alone. Although I can go to see her, but if one day ...... Why, this bleak reality will happen in front of them, for the dust to choose? No, it's not a choice, he has only one answer.

"There are many more people waiting for me to guide. Dust comforted himself.
