(Volume 3 The Shadow Returns, Open!) ）

Darkness, empty and silent darkness.

The girl stood alone in the endless darkness, her closed eyes slowly opened, and her crimson pupils showed a blankness.

Me, where is this......

She lifted her head and tried to walk around, but in the endless darkness, she couldn't see the path under her feet or everything around her. The girl didn't know how long she had been wandering, she walked, walked, and gradually forgot time, forgot herself, and forgot everything.

Lonely.

Cold silence.

Emptiness.

The girl didn't realize that she was just walking blindly, with no goal, nothing she wanted to do, and her mind was empty, as if she had lost something important.

I don't know how long later, in the endless darkness, there was a glimmer of light, a red shimmer, the girl's eyes slowly focused from the hollow, and involuntarily approached the only light in the darkness.

She approached.

She saw the girl shrouded in the red light.

It was a figure that made the girl feel extremely familiar in her heart, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it, or rather, the girl who was empty in her mind at the moment had lost the ability to distinguish everything.

The girl's eyes were open, her pale red pupils stared at the girl, and her delicate face was extremely calm, even if she saw the girl's figure in the endless darkness, she couldn't make her emotions fluctuate for half a minute.

"Who are you......"

The girl frowned slightly and asked softly.

The girl was silent, just staring at the girl, her eyes intertwined with each other, and the bright plump lips curled up, slightly outlining a beautiful arc.

"Long time no see."

Her voice was so erratic that it seemed to come from the girl's ears from all directions, rather than from her mouth.

The girl stared at the familiar red eyes, and a faint pain tingled in her mind, as if something had suddenly surged up.

"You...... Who the hell is it?! ”

The girl's bewitching red eyes flashed with an inexplicable light, and her ethereal and ethereal voice echoed in the girl's ears like a nightmare.

"I ...... Who is it? ”

"I'm Mu Bei."

"You gave me this name, I like it very much."

"You ......" The girl's expression was a little hesitant, she looked at the girl in front of her, trying to recall something, but she seemed to be bound by an invisible diaphragm, so that she could never explore the edge of the truth.

"Your name is Mubei?"

"Yes, that's right." The girl chuckled, her body shrouded in the red light leaned forward slightly, floating in front of the girl, her chin resting lightly on the girl's shoulder, whispering in her ear.

"I'm here...... It's been sleeping for too long, and I've been waiting for too long. ”

"I've been looking forward to the day when you will come to me and rescue me with your own hands."

"I ...... Get you out? The girl's eyes gradually drifted and she whispered.

"Yes, as long as you get me out, whatever you want to achieve or achieve, I can help you do it." The girl's voice seemed to reach the depths of the girl's soul, and the demonic red eyes looked at the girl's red pupils and smiled.

"After all, I'm Mu Bei."

……

The war is over.

Traces of war and blood can be seen everywhere on the devastated land, but the event called the Third Akatsuki War has become a thing of the past at this moment.

The greedy wolf army of the Communist Union withdrew from the battlefield, the military headquarters of Beimuzhou also sent a retreat order, the task of cleaning up the battlefield was handed over to the logistics troops, and the students of Persvia also returned to Canglan City one after another, waiting for the returning empty boats.

On the side of the Alliance, Feng Qi did not embarrass his old opponent too much, after all, in this war between humans against Akatsuki, it was the Communist Alliance and the Alliance that worked together to get through the difficulties, and after the troops of the Alliance returned to the camp stationed on the coast, they began to prepare to retreat.

The only thing that buries everyone in the depths of their hearts is only a figure.

The girl who was covered in golden flames, holding a crimson giant sword, was like a shocking glimpse in everyone's eyes.

Sitting in the giant command mecha of the Chuanmeng, Mo He leaned silently on the bulkhead, his seat was given to another person, the girl lowered her head a little stiffly, her hair hung down in front of her, and she didn't know what to think.

The two were silent for an unknown amount of time, Mo He sighed heavily, shook his head slowly, and said, "I never thought that I would see you here." ”

"Shaohua girl."

Meng Shaohua clasped his hands lightly in front of him, clasping them together, not knowing what to say at this time.

The person in front of her, Mo He, the military chief of the Chuan Alliance and one of the five elders of the Chuan Alliance, was almost equivalent to a stranger to her at this time.

The former Uncle Mo...... It is a trace that should have been left in the depths of memory for a long time.

"If I had known that you would come to Beimuzhou, I would definitely come to you and take you back, it is impossible for you to be in such a situation." Mo He's gaze at the girl was very complicated, and the moment he saw Meng Shaohua, his heart was first incredible, and after confirming her identity, all that was left was deep pity and guilt.

He knew all too well what this kid had been through.

"Uncle Mo, actually, I'm here...... Very good. Meng Shaohua lowered his head and said softly: "I have met reliable classmates, teachers who love me, and ...... Caring for my ...... Friend. ”

"Don't you miss home?"

The girl's ten fingers clenched suddenly, and the knuckles were slightly white.

"Home?"

"My home...... Where is it? She raised her head and looked at the middle-aged man in front of her, her eyes filled with extremely heavy emotions.

"From the moment my father kicked me out of the house, I didn't have a home."

"Shaohua girl! You...... Alas! Mo He's expression changed constantly, he sighed suddenly, and swallowed back the words that were blocked in his throat.

"Your father, he...... There is a last resort. ”

The girl suddenly laughed miserably, two lines of tears slipped down the corners of her eyes on the placket, and she said silently: "I know, I naturally understand." ”

"He must have his own wretchedness."

"But what kind of hardship can make him ruthlessly abandon his biological daughter who has raised him for more than ten years, drive him out of the house, and even order everyone to cut off contact with me, leaving me alone on the streets, struggling to survive, and finally even drifting across the ocean to a foreign land thousands of miles away."

"Did he ever ask me that no matter what happened, even if it was a catastrophe, his daughter would be willing to stand by his side and face it with him, instead of living in such a situation."

"He knows how much I've missed his arms, my mother, and the time we spent together for countless nights."

Mo He couldn't say a word for a long time, he watched the girl's tears raining down, hiding his face and crying, listening to the blood-dripping accusation, as if he wanted to vent the pain suppressed in his heart.

But the girl seemed to have not controlled her emotions for a very short time, and when the words fell, she sobbed, turned her head, gently wiped her tears with the back of her hand, and after a while, turned around, raised her head, looked at him with reddish eyes, and whispered: "I'm sorry, Uncle Mo, it's Shaohua who has lost his temper." ”

At this moment, Mo He silently closed his eyes, leaned against the bulkhead, raised his head, and said softly: "You don't have to be so polite to me. ”

"I'm not an unkind guy, and I don't care what happened to your parents, or what the situation is at the moment, but Shaohua girl."

"You can always trust your uncle, and your uncle can be your strongest backing."

The girl shook her head with a smile and said, "Thank you, Uncle Mo, Shaohua is grateful." ”

"I'm willing to go back with you this time, I just want to go and see if he's still there, if there's a chance......" Meng Shaohua raised his head, his eyes glowing with water waves were extremely clear.

"I want to stand in front of him and ask, why."

"Whether he answers or not, I'll leave there and go back to Beimu Island to be with those who need me."

"Brother Changli, he ......" Mohe turned around, turned his back to the girl, rubbed the corners of his sour eyes slightly with his fingers, and said in a low voice: "That's it, I'll find a way to let you meet." ”

"Let him explain everything to you face to face."

"Thank you, Uncle Mo."

……

In the endless darkness, the girl walked slowly, getting closer and closer to the red light.

A strange smile appeared on the girl's delicate face, and she murmured softly, "Yes, yes, come closer." ”

"Step into that light, yes, closer."

"Soon, you will be able to save me, and these countless years of loneliness will finally be freed."

The girl walked to the place where the red light was close at hand, and her feet stepped in, and the red light seemed to sense something and enveloped the girl's body in an instant.

Seeing this scene, the girl's bewitching red eyes narrowed, and her bright lips bloomed with a beautiful smile.

"Giggle."

"Thank you really, for saving me."

"That's what it is...... Do you feel free, wonderful...... Too good to ...... It's like a new lease on life. ”

The girl floated greedily in the darkness, a strong momentum slowly erupted from within her body, her eyes flashed red, and an incomparably amazing aura surged, trying to break through this darkness.

But at this moment, a dark blue lightning suddenly erupted in the dark space, cutting through the darkness and slashing at the girl's body, the strong momentum suddenly withered, the girl's body retreated, and the demonic red eyes flashed with a cold killing intent.

"Damn...... Who spoiled me and did good? ”

"That's just one step away."

The girl's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at the girl shrouded in the beam, and the corners of her lips outlined a smile.

"It's just that I've been waiting for so long, so why rush it."

"As long as you stay here with me, Mu Bei...... Sooner or later it's mine. ”
