"So you slept here, and I thought you were going back. Why didn't you go with Ling? "Red Moon wakes up Kate from her sleep.

"It turned out to be Xiao Honghong, where is this, why did I fall asleep here...... Huh...... I remembered that Xiaoling and Xiaoxun were going to other circles, and I had some things I wanted to check, so I came here to look for them, and I fell asleep unconsciously, it's really not good, I just had a super unhappy dream, and I actually dreamed that Xiaolingling didn't want me anymore, na, is Xiaohong's second circle really over? Why do I still feel like something else is going to happen? What kind of world government would end this incident so calmly? Kate stretched and looked at the red moon standing in front of the self-recording book in the center. Are you in a daze? Or are you thinking about things? Xiao Honghong has a lot of things hidden in her heart, will she tell me one day? Because Xiao Honghong looks very tired, for women, Lord Ben cherishes it very much, especially Xiao Honghong......"

"How boring it would be if it really ended like this, don't you think? Or is that little thing that just happened enough to kill your boring time? "Red Moon looked at the four candles of different lengths and colors under the central 'floating book'." I'm curious how you can tell I'm tired? I didn't even realize it. ”

"Hmm......? Forget it, I've slept enough anyway, and my body is almost recovered. Kate got up and stretched wide. Since there is nothing wrong with Xiaohonghong, then I have to leave too, I still have my beautiful, dazzling job, and those lost lambs waiting for me. Satsuki, next time, if there is a next time, you remember to call me. Also, if Little Red Moon feels tired and uneasy, please let me know, and I may be able to help you share some of the ......" Kate gently kissed Red Moon's hand behind the back of her hand and left the library on the third floor to go back to the place where she should have gone back.

"Next ...... Event? …… It's really tangled to think about it, because that person's death date has come so soon, and I will have something that I don't want to happen, I haven't been in such a mood for many years, I think I've forgotten this feeling, it seems that I haven't really died...... If this is destined to be the time for you to leave, then I will prepare a funeral for you, which can be regarded as the 'special treatment' of me and the Red Moon for you. "Red Moon caressed the book 'A Brief History of the Fryne Family' that Kate read before going to bed......

"There's not much time left...... From the very beginning of the 'Civilian Area Incident' to the 'Third Circle' to the 'Second Circle' that just ended, sure enough, the gears have begun to turn, and I don't have much time left, this time it will really end, if this time has not fulfilled my wish, then I am willing to give up...... Although this is not what I want, although I want that person to be reborn, if this is a wish that is destined to be unfulfilled, I am willing to give up, however, there is still time, until this candle burns out, my time is still there, it must be ...... I'm sure you'll get back to me......

"Next is the time of the world, there will be some unexpected big changes, two of the ten protective circles have been 'broken', it is already very dangerous, and the rest will not be too far from death...... You're going to help me push this huge gear, Liyue. ”

Somewhere in the world:

"When did you come?" As soon as the cloaked man woke up, he saw Liyue sitting comfortably on the sofa opposite him and reading the news. "Why are you here?" The man in the cloak doesn't remember telling him where he lives, and although he has cooperated before, the relationship has not progressed to the point where he can enter without his permission! The important thing is that he was not aware of his arrival until he saw him!

"I've been in for a long time and saw you sleeping, so I didn't bother you, don't worry I didn't peek at you, but if you want to kill me, then whatever." Liyue on the sofa didn't seem to believe that the man in the cloak would kill herself. "But let me ask you more, you seem to have a nightmare? Keep talking about 'revenge' or something, and dad and mom? I always thought you had no parents like me, but I guessed wrong? It seems to show me another side of you that I shouldn't have seen, will this reason make you kill me? Liyue ignored the murderous aura of the cloaked man, and still said to herself.

"Is it okay for you to come to see me?" The man in the cloak didn't want to bother to ask Liyue how he found the place he lived, as long as it was everyone who lived in this world, as long as the man wanted to find it, there was nothing he couldn't find, of course, excluding the people who lived 'there'. It is also because of this that this man is so valued by the World Government and the Hunters Association. His existence is the greatest 'pride' of this world, but he himself doesn't think so, this 'genetic human'.

"I said last time we parted in the second circle, we won't meet again, but I'm really here to say goodbye to you today, because I'm finally dying......" Liyue lazily nestled on the sofa was still calm to the sound of no waves.

"Huh? What do you mean? For a while, the man in the cloak didn't understand what Liyue's words meant. In the past, he had to guess when he spoke, but he didn't expect to have no clue this time.

"The matter of the second circle, it is obvious that I helped the world government, but the old men of the world government want to hold me accountable, what is this called, yes, cross the river and tear down the bridge! That is to say, before crossing the river, the existence of the bridge is needed, but after crossing the river, the existence of the bridge becomes meaningless, and the monsters created by themselves do not listen to their own words, so they have to kill toys that have no value but can still threaten their interests. That's why I said I was going to die. Alas...... For the sake of our acquaintance, I have come to say goodbye to you. Liyue's complicated smile indicated that he was not at all relaxed at all, at least not as relaxed as he said this.

"Hmph, don't pretend, you're going to obediently let those people kill you?" Hearing Liyue's words, the man in the cloak didn't believe a word, this man had the same purpose as himself, and even stronger! Let him just give up, liar. Although I don't know what happened, this man's ability to plan three and two circles means that he is absolutely capable of dealing with the difficulties he said this time.

"Poof! …… Hahahaha! Hearing the words of the man in the cloak, Liyue laughed, and the more she laughed, the louder she became, and then she laughed directly on the sofa. Why do you know? Didn't you believe what I just said? Am I so incapable of lying? "I guess enough laughing. Liyue returned to her usual appearance. "Since it's been exposed, I won't play anymore, I thought you would be a little sad about my death."

"Hmph." The man in the cloak snorted disdainfully. "That kind of cheap sympathy, you don't need it."

"I can't fool you, but although I won't die, it's not much better...... If you say it, you won't save me. Liyue shook her head.

"You want me to save you? That's not your plan. The cloaked man sighed weakly. Only the man in front of him can make him feel that he still has a trace of emotion, he is a 'friend', right? After 'that incident', this man was the only person he was willing to associate with, because he was on the same level as himself to see things? Or does he have the same hatred as himself? I don't know anymore......

"I don't have any plans." Liyue stared at the cloaked man with a smile on her face, although she couldn't see his face, but Liyue knew that under that cloak hat must have a very helpless expression, he should be the only person she could call a 'friend', no matter what kind of identity the other party is, they have the same purpose, and their abilities are equal. Friend's I'm afraid I won't be able to find a second one.,That ZERO isn't a friend.,Not to mention an opponent.,If you have to say.,It's just a stupid toy in your hand.,I must not get along with him.。 So after negotiating the terms with the old-fashioned world government, the first thought was to say goodbye to this friend who considered himself a 'friend', although he didn't even know what he looked like.

"Forget it, it's your business whether you plan it or not. Since you're going to die, that's the end of our cooperation, and I won't see you again in the future, and I'll treat your coming here today as if it were nothing. "The man in the cloak ordered Liyue to leave. Since his actions have been controlled by the world government, there is no need for him to be involved, I don't know if God will make a joke to expose his identity like this, not yet, not yet, he still has a lot of things to do!

"Cut, you're more boring than me. Anyway, I'm done with it, and I'm saying goodbye to you, so I won't disturb your sleep. Liyue got up and prepared to leave.

"Wait." The man in the cloak remembered what he had heard from Hongyue, so he called Liyue, who had already opened the door.

"What? Finally reluctant to give up on me? Liyue looked back at the cloaked man.

"This is for you, I don't know what your plan is this time, maybe...... This was really the last time we saw each other. So this is for you, and with this, all the people under my command will be at your disposal. The man in the cloak handed Liyue a silver ring encrusted with dark crystal on his hand.

"What is this? Are you proposing to me? Liyue took the ring, because her hand was bigger than the cloaked man's hand, so the ring that she wore on the caped man's middle finger could only be worn on her ring finger. But as soon as he put it on, there was a tingling pain in his finger, and then the ring was deeply embedded in the flesh and firmly grasped the phalange. Liyue frowned, it seems that this really can't be taken off.

"This ring is a symbol of my status, and as long as you have it, you can command my army at will, including those I have domesticated the aliens." The man in the cloak said when he saw that the ring was already on Liyue's hand.

"Why did you give me this thing?" Liyue wiped the blood off her finger and found that there were no scars on her finger, this ring has the ability to heal?

"Because I'm dying." The man in the cloak said solemnly.

"Hah, you're making such a joke with me? Are you learning and selling? I didn't expect you to joke too. "I obviously feel that the man in the cloak is not joking, but I still don't want to believe that what he said is true, because no matter how he thinks it, he will not be the kind of person who will be killed casually, birth, old age, sickness and death? Just kidding, he shouldn't be an ordinary person.

"I'm not kidding. And even if this ring is in your hand, as long as I am alive, you will not be able to use it, and one day the gem on the ring will turn red, which means that I am dead. You are the only one in this world who can continue to accomplish our common goal, and even if you were to rebel against me, I would easily kill you, so I have nothing to worry about. The man in the cloak stared at the ring on Liyue's hand.

"Why does that sound so scary? You don't want people to see your face so much, but you give me this thing that you say is a symbol of your status, so you don't afraid that I will find your weakness? Liyue just asked jokingly. There are some things that the parties don't want to know, curiosity is easy to kill themselves, although they have no expectations for the world, but they don't want to die in vain.

"Whatever. Now you can go. The cloaked man sat back in his chair.

Hearing the words of the man in the cloak, Liyue was speechless. The door opened and asked, "We...... At last...... Friends? ”

"It doesn't count."

"Yes. How can we be friends. That goodbye, goodbye. ”

The door was shut......
