Chapter 1 The Storm is Coming
Gao Ying will never forget Zhu Sunling's eyes.
Especially when she said the word "lost", her eyes were extremely empty. Her beautiful face, because of the empty eyes, looks like a delicate doll that has been sucked out of the soul.
Her heart was empty. She just lives for the sake of living, has no goals and ideals in life, just ...... I simply don't want to die, so I pursue eternal life.
Zhu Sunling experienced a "loss" that she could not bear, and tormented her to this day and has never stopped.
Recalling Zhu Sunling's many contradictory and incomprehensible personalities, Gao Ying found that he didn't know when, his feelings for Zhu Sunling had gradually changed from simple curiosity to being attracted to her.
This kind of change, even Gao Ying himself is not aware of it.
Of course, it is undeniable that Zhu Sunling is indeed very attractive as a woman, but for Gao Ying, who has always lived on the edge of life and death, he has no heart to think about these at all. After all, the future is a bit elusive for him.
At this point, he is very awake at all times.
However, he also admits that he is indeed somewhat attracted to Zhu Sunling.
"Thank you for accompanying me to the movie." Zhu Sunling looked at the night sky above her and said, "I'm going to return soon, what are you going to do next?" ”
"You can do anything."
The two walked along the streets, and at night in Queens, New York, as the second most populous district in New York, was also quite lively.
They tacitly ...... There is no mention of going to the beginning of the parable.
And Gao Ying didn't know what to say to her for a while.
"That...... I just saw in the movie that the alien army destroyed New York to a pulp, and now I come out and look at New York in good condition, and it feels amazing...... ......"
Speaking of which, Gao Ying himself felt that he was simply talking about it without words.
"Americans always like to destroy their cities in movies, and I don't think that weird you think."
"Hmm...... Also, the Statue of Liberty and the White House have been destroyed in many movies...... This is unlikely to be the case with the cinema of our country......"
Then, Gao Ying felt embarrassed herself. All he said was almost all nonsense.
What the hell happened to him? Why are you suddenly incoherent?
That's not what he wanted to say at all.
Gao Ying's pace gradually began to slow down.
And then...... He finally thought about what he had to say.
"Zhu Sunling. Life...... It's not just 'losing', it's also 'gaining'. Eternal life is too ethereal for us now, I just want to live now. In addition to eternal life, you have other things to consider pursuing. ”
However, Zhu Sunling replied coldly: "When a person dies, everything he gains will still be 'lost'." Moreover, it is irreversible, eternal 'loss'. I've had enough of 'losing'. ”
Gao Ying was speechless for a while.
"Of course...... Maybe there is another destination after death. But I don't want to be like that. It was more horrific than death as I used to understand it. ”
Of course, Gao Ying knew what Zhu Sunling meant by another kind of destination.
"But in fact, this exam may be more likely to make us that kind of ......"
"I've never pursued anything else, anything else you're talking about, I've never thought about it, not once." Zhu Sunling didn't know why, and naturally said these inner secrets that she had never told anyone in the past in front of Gao Ying.
"Life is a constant 'loss'...... Either you get something that can be eternally 'get', or you ...... I don't want anything. When I have eternal life, whether I become a god or a devil, I will pursue what you say...... And those other things. Until then, I didn't need anything. ”
When she said these words, Zhu Sunling's eyes were extremely firm. Gao Ying, but he didn't know what to say.
Over time...... The time has come for the return.
Gao Ying, Zhu Sunling and Yan Yuchu returned to the classroom.
From David's body, Gao Ying extracted a reward, that is, he could open a space entrance similar to a Doraemon dimensional pocket from the palm of his hand, and Gao Ying stored all the purchased firearms in it. Frankly, this is a handy ability, though it doesn't help against ghosts in the slightest.
"Pretty good." Gao Ying was absent-minded at this time, but his eyes were always focused on Zhu Sunling.
Yan Yuchu looked at Gao Ying's expression and said meaningfully, "Did something happen?" ”
"No...... No. Gao Ying subconsciously denied it, "the movie ...... It's pretty good. ”
"You've already said that."
"Hmm...... It's very good-looking. ”
Zhu Sunling looked at Yan Yuchu and said, "I'll go to rest first, you are free." ”
Yan Yuchu paid attention to Gao Ying's eyes staring at Zhu Sunling's back, he was a person from the past, and he had once loved a woman vigorously, so he understood something from Gao Ying's eyes. That look was full of reluctance, pity, and ......
"Gao Ying, for us, the first priority now is survival." Yan Yuchu had to remind Gao Ying: "We...... Well??? This, what is written on the blackboard? ”
When they returned, all three had their backs to the blackboard, and now, they all saw the wanted notice!
"Three designated Hell-level rewards, the first is that you can be exempted from erasure if you fail the exam three times, the second is that you can permanently seal the skull eyes on all the exam papers in the exam room you belong to, and the third is ......"
The third reward, almost no one can refuse.
"No...... No way? This, this kind of reward can also have? Gao Ying almost couldn't believe his eyes: "I want to kill myself and receive the reward!" ”
"This is also a killer reward at the bottom of the box in the Hell class, and it seems that the dead person is really an important companion of the person who issued the wanted notice." Yan Yuchu's expression also began to become grim: "This is too tricky!" Everybody is going to come for you! Kill you and you'll get these three designated rewards! ”
Gao Ying suddenly looked at Yan Yuchu and said, "Why don't you kill me and receive the reward, anyway, I can be resurrected once." ”
"Are you serious?"
“……”
"I'm telling you clearly, this wanted warrant needs to be sent by your head, and no one can get a reward."
Yan Yuchu suddenly thought of something, and said, "Just in case, you go to find Zhu Sunling." ”
"Looking for her?"
"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. You give her orders not to be ...... for the sake of a bounty."
Gao Ying immediately understood: "Yu Chu, do you mean that Zhu Sunling will kill me in exchange for a reward?" ”
"It is difficult to draw dragons and tigers, and it is difficult to draw bones, and you don't know your heart. Not betrayal, just because the price is not high enough. Zhu Sunling and you have only worked together on the exam once, and she asked Verwin to bring you into this exam room because she values your ability, but if you can kill you in exchange for a higher price......"
Gao Ying knew that what he said at the beginning made sense.
But somehow, he didn't want to think about Zhu Sunling like this.
She...... Not such a bottomless person.
