Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Stormy Night
It was almost midnight, and I came out of prison and changed into a hoodie in the smashed and tattered mall next to my residence, covering the top of my head with a hat. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
"Boss, you're ....." Genos was soaking wet.
That's when I reflected the heavy rain and snow that fell here. Touching his face, I asked him seriously, "Did you put out what you gave you this morning?" β
He nodded, but was still a little confused: "What is that?" I could see a faint pink hue floating in the air. β
"That's a hallucinogen I made, and I compressed it in that ball for you to launch it over Daylight City to paralyze the spirits of the people inside." I nudged him, "Now, you go to the block and kill all the robots you can." β
Watching Genos go, I let out a quiet breath. Dream Smoke and Fog should stay in the residence.
I pushed open the door and walked in to see only Mengyan, and she was quietly drinking tea alone. The only thing in the room was the TV was on, and I knocked on the door frame to not scare her, shook off the water, and hugged the warm, dry indoor air with a natural smile on my face.
"Ye Bai?" She looked at me with a look of joy or not.
"It's me, you haven't slept yet?" I took a towel from the shelf, wrapped it around my body, and walked towards her.
There was a hint of worry on her face: "It's chaotic outside today, and the news says you're in prison........ I can't sleep. β
I patted her: "Don't worry, I'm not back, am I?" I'll grab something and leave later. β
My face brought relief: "You just put your heart in your stomach, this time it will be over together, and we can go out." I can also pay a good tribute to my parents. β
I walked straight to the back room and glanced at the shelf, on which were the foggy knives. It seems that this Niko is already asleep, and maybe she is secretly worrying about me in the room, because I didn't have her with me.
In the back room were powerful incendiary bombs and powerful cryobombs that I had secretly taken out of my lab. These two items were obtained from my advanced weapons section, and each was the size of half an egg, so it was easy to carry, although there were only three of each.
When I came out again, the smoke was gone. The TV is still on, and the knives on the shelves ..... It's gone......
I screamed in my heart that it was not good!
The danger was already in my back, and before I could turn around, an iron weapon pierced through the back and came straight to me! The sharp knife that drank blood was so sharp that I swallowed the sweetness that came up alive.
Turning his head with difficulty, he looked at the black eyes behind him, and one hand covered his mouth in disbelief. She looked at the palm of her long knife and was stunned, and she shrank herself back and sat down on the ground with trepidation, she looked at what she had done in a daze, and her lips trembled violently.
"I didn't mean to do it....... I was just...... I don't want you to take someone else into your arms......... "She should be very sober and what she says is reasonable."
I felt the strange smell of metal in my stomach and slowly pulled the knife out behind the back of my hand. Blood was pouring down from both sides, and I barely stood on my feet.
Holding the painful echo of my abdomen, I glanced back at her faintly, and I didn't want to say anything more when I saw her lost soul.
"Where's the fog?"
"She's gone to the City of Water to protect Lina's mother and son."
"That's good......" I exhaled, but even when I exhaled, I felt pressured at the moment.
"Do you like that girl?" That's what she asked me.
I walked over to the coffee table and rummaged through the things underneath for bandages, and when I heard her ask, I confessed, "I like it." β
"Why! Isn't our emotion for more than ten years as good as for three years!? Is it really the latecomer who comes first!? β
As if she was crying out for herself, her tears glistening in the moonlight, and the rapidly falling snowflakes made her even more miserable as she sat in front of the window.
"Come here, wrap a bandage for me." I swept over her, lifted my clothes, and bared my teeth at the bloody wound.
A flash of something flashed on Mengyan's gentle face, no matter what it was, I knew it, she was not controlled by Erin's potion, as for why she let Wuyin leave the knife....... I don't know if it's to keep me.
Her fingers trembled and she picked up the bandage a little. I gritted my teeth and ate in pain, and the muffled snort in my throat was already barely enough.
"Hurry up, or you'll bleed more." I urged.
She had just woken up, nodded in a panic, and bandaged me with her hands and feet.
She lost her mind again and became faster and faster, and I hurriedly reached out and pressed her wrist: "At that time, I was young, I had a lot of time, and the first person in my heart was indeed you, but at that time, I was still young and frivolous and didn't care much." After so many things, I was so confused that I didn't have time to think about it. β
I tied a knot in the bandage myself, and then walked to the door in this bloody clothes, looking at Mengyan who was still stunned: "You are a woman, so you have to think more carefully about your feelings, and your actions today are very inconsiderate." Do you know what your knife is called in the eyes of men? β
"What?" She looked at me.
"One cut in two...... I left these four words and opened the door.......
The road was very slippery, and I was thinking of walking in the direction of the battlefield. Maybe it's a coincidence, Elle sent me a message asking me to go to the rooftop of the Blue Label to find her.
I slowly closed my eyes and looked up at the sky, wondering if this was finally the time.....
On the roof of the Blue Cards, I did meet Elle. She was beautifully dressed, in a delicate gothic dress that matched her petite body. She was on the edge of the roof with two beautiful snow feet naked, and the emotion in her eyes as she looked at me made my body tremble, I think it was because it was too cold.
I didn't look at it: "It's dangerous, come and talk about it." β
She showed a completely different posture from her usual appearance, she looked so dignified, so elegant, and her eyes were so soft. The smell of aristocratic women exuded from her body, and she moved lightly on the edge of the rooftop.
Her beautiful eyes stared at me faintly, "I want to ask you to spare Erin." β
"Hah! It's as simple as that? β
Forgive me for laughing out loud, this plead....... It's ridiculous!
She hesitated for a moment and replied to me very seriously: "It's as simple as that." β
My face sank in front of her little by little, and my gaze became colder and colder: "Don't you think it's too naΓ―ve?" Don't talk to me that you're under 18 years old. You're smart, you're even smarter than Irene. β
"No matter how naΓ―ve she is, she is also my own sister." Her position is firm.
I understand! Of course I understand! It was Erin who pursued something that had brought her and me to where we are now! Can I step back? No!
Her long, blonde hair was clumped, and her little face was covered with rain. The cold wind blew and her thin delicate body trembled slightly, but even so, she still spoke without hurry: "Ye Bai..... Profit can change everything, and you can let her go as long as I can pay the price. β
I chuckled, "That's what I told you when I was on the run." β
She covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yes, only interests between people are eternal, and you can say such ruthless words." β
"So what are you going to trade it for?" I looked at her with interest.
An indifferent smile appeared on her face, and she didn't answer, but her body had already moved!
I watched her fall back a little, and a ripple suddenly rippled in my heart........
Her reluctant gaze was still on my face, her gentle body slowly unfolded, and she slowly closed her eyes to meet death.
The ripples in my heart unusually widened into waves, and then the waterfall poured down to wash away my calmness.
"Cut!"
I secretly hated that I still couldn't let go, and my feet rushed to her without obeying the call, and when I saw that I was approaching, I threw myself forward and tried to reach out and grab her who was already hanging on the edge of the cliff.
Her little pale and tender hands were covered with water, slippery and slippery. I looked at her pale face, "Do you think that's all it takes?" β
"One life for one life, don't many of you in China like to say that?" She looked at my face with love in her eyes, and her atmosphere became more and more bleak.
I tried to pull her up, but she tried her best to stop me, and in the end I almost slipped down. I gave up my strong tactics and was ready to communicate with her.
She put her other hand on my right hand: "Compared to that emaciated young boy, you have more scars, and you are stronger, and more mature. β
"Tell me how you got to be like this?" I think my hand can hold on for another hour or two, but luckily she's light.
"The day you were sent to Korea, you were hunted down by the black chess team, and that time they sent out the Adepts. You're an ordinary person, and you're going to die, so I stopped that guy for you. Unfortunately, I never expected that they would send such a strong person to kill me in one face, and there was not even a corpse left. β
My hands are shaking! Why are you shaking so much? Why did my eyes flash with her smiling face?
"Later, I was revived in the family cemetery and woke up to a strange old man. He told me that it was a supernatural phenomenon that could make it possible for him to resurrect his dead relatives after death. She looked at her body, her face showing tenderness.
"So...... "I have a dry throat.
She smiled brightly at me: "So, this body has stopped growing. This is the body of our sister, who died after a serious illness at the age of fourteen. Her name is Amis and my name is Elle........"
I...... What should I say? It's complicated...........
Her sapphire eyes slowly gathered the light of hope, and her little face was full of pitiful pleading: "Please....... Leave Erin alone....... She's the youngest sister, and we just want to revive the decayed family, so that everyone who left can come back, and let the dead sister still laugh with us........."
"I'll let her ........ go"
Why!? Why!? Why would I say yes to her so easily!? She cast a spell on me? No, it won't! She's magical in her own right.........
"You....... Do you still love me? β
I don't look away at the noise in the distance, my vision blurred. I'm struggling, I'm miserable, but I have a word to ask her at this moment.......
I turned to face her, "Then you tell me...... Whose hand am I holding? β
Her pupils shrank suddenly, her shining eyes dimmed instantly, and she was stunned as if her whole person was frozen there. Even if I feel distressed, I can only grit my teeth and endure it now, who told me to ask!
"yes, whose hand are you holding? The girl who gives you the best impression and the best memories is called Amies, and the girl who keeps cheating on you now is Ellie........"
I didn't dare to look at her face, gasped hard, and said to her, "You better come up." β
"The price hasn't been paid yet, and I can't go up." Her voice reverted to its previous indifference.
"But!" I turned my head abruptly to see her smile at me, and the smile was so beautiful, and the flowers were not as amazing as she was at the moment!
"Goodbye......."
The soft words sounded in my ears, and I was startled, and sweat washed my whole body again. I can barely feel the heart anymore.
A flash of determination flashed in her eyes, and she took out a sharp knife from her waist like lightning, and before I could react, she gritted her teeth and cut off her own hand!
Her body sank! Out of my grasp! She's falling! She fell to the ground! What do I TM do!? What am I doing here!?
I stepped back from the edge and exhaled violently to exhale all the breath in my chest! She was still holding her small palm in her palm, and the blood at the broken wrist was shocking! Why does my chest hurt too? Wrist pain! How do I feel like I can't hold it? It's so heavy all of a sudden!!
Ahhhh...........h
I........ Crying all heart, until the sun tore through the thick clouds...... One night, I took her hand and fell to my knees in repentance......
.......
"Boss ......"
I woke up in a trance, and Genos was sitting next to me.
Draped in one of his suits, I groaned, "Where is this?" β
"This is the gate of the south gate of the City of Day, and now the attack has begun at 8:34." Genos explained the current situation exactly to me.
"Now that it's already started, there's no reason for me to lie here quietly." I did it, rubbed my sore shoulders, and was about to leave.
Genos reached out and stopped me.
"How?"
He took out three things from behind him: "Boss, this is yours." β
Gun! The gun that has been inseparable from me since the beginning...... and the healing that old Anne left me and his life savings.
I smiled lightly, "Let's go, Genos, it's all over for today." β
The war outside the door is tense, and the robot that Dream City gave them has perfectly broken the leg of a war fortress, and now it can only be used as a map cannon. The east gate was broken through by the two of them, Yardley and Uncle Red, and without the help of the war fortress, there were relatively many fewer maintenance robots.
Twisting his abdomen, which was still aching, he looked at Chu Shizuku, who was ready to go at the south gate, and waved at him.
"If your body can't bear it, don't follow it." Chen Changguan appeared behind me like a ghost.
I almost punched him in the face, and I withdrew my hand halfway through. I stared at him like a terrible demon: "You're really scary. β
"Alas~ The final boss is not me, as long as it doesn't hurt you, won't it be?"
That's what I hate the most! He looks unfathomable, as if he can guess anything. Even if one word is wrong during the conversation, he can find a breakthrough!
I sneered, "We haven't turned our faces yet." β
"Don't worry, it won't be in the future!" His smile was confident.
Then we put all the focus on this war, and then the end of the war should be the end of all this.......
To be continued.......
