Chapter Thirty-Eight: Regretful Youth
Looking at Yang Piaopiao, who had just fallen asleep, Ke Yuan sorted out the books on the table.
After tomorrow's exam, the end of high school will be officially announced.
Although God was unfair to him in the first two years, fortunately, he was favored by the goddess of fate in the last year.
"Ke Yuan! Come on! Yang Piaopiao waved his fist at Ke Piao before entering the examination room.
Ke Yuan, who had already submitted the test papers, sat boredly outside the school gate, waiting for Yang Piaopiao.
The other students also walked out of the examination room with different expressions, but they never saw the shadow in their hearts.
This made Ke Piao a little puzzled, Yang Piaopiao couldn't be so slow?
Walking to the middle of nowhere, he jumped lightly from outside the wall, and jumped into the examination room.
Tiptoeing into the building, dodging the teachers who patrol around.
"How is that possible?" The examination room where Yang Piaopiao was located was empty, and only the invigilator was sorting out the test papers.
The presence of a shield in the examination room made the mobile phone useless, and in desperation, Ke had to walk through the building to find it.
Around the corner, it seemed that someone was crying.
Ke Pi ran over quickly and found that it was Yang Piaopiao.
Holding Yang Piaopiao in his arms, Ke Yuan asked distressedly, "Piaopiao?" What's wrong? ”
Yang Piaopiao, who was crying, raised his head, his lips pale.
"I don't know, I'm so cold, Ke Yuan, am I sick?"
Looking at the girl's helpless eyes, Ke Yuan lifted her up from the ground, "Go, Piaopiao, I'll take you to the hospital." ”
Unexpectedly, Yang Piaopiao, who had just been helped up, suddenly collapsed to the ground.
"I'm running out of strength, what's wrong with me? Ke Yuan? Yang Piaopiao's eyes revealed fear, and he didn't know what to do.
Seeing this, Ke Yu also panicked, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'll take you away." ”
Picking up Yang Piaopiao easily, Ke Piao, who was just about to leave the school, suddenly felt a light in his hand.
Looking down, the girl was surrounded by a circle of light.
"Piaopiao, you?"
Yang Piaopiao, who was being held, didn't know that she was abnormal, and opened her eyes weakly and replied in a low voice, "Ke Yuan, what's wrong?" ”
"No, nothing."
Suddenly, Yang Piaopiao grabbed Ke Piao's collar tightly, "Ke Piao, I feel very bad.."
As if someone had stabbed him in his heart, Ke Yuan bit his lip and nodded, "We'll be there soon, you insist." ”
The aperture became brighter and brighter, and Yang Piaopiao also noticed a change in herself.
"What, what's going on?"
Ke Yuan's brows furrowed, although he didn't know why this was happening, he vaguely felt that it seemed to be related to the meta-brain space.
Yang Piaopiao seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, and she didn't even have the strength to open her eyes.
"Ke Yu. . . I love you. ”
Trembling all over, Yang Piaopiao's whole body emitted white light, and gradually became illusory.
The weight in his hand gradually disappeared, and Ke Pian wanted to hold Yang Piaopiao in his arms.
"Piao Piao!"
The starlight dissipated, and the bosom was empty.
Looking at his hands blankly, Ke Yuan turned around and looked around.
"Piao Piao? Piao! ”
The loud shout attracted the teachers who had not yet left the building, "What are you shouting!" This is the exam room, do you know, how did you get in? ”
Ke Yuan looked at the teacher, not knowing how to answer.
The green wind element swirls around Ke Yuan, causing a strong wind to wreak havoc in the corridor.
"Zeroing Plan, Completeness: 0.8%"
The sudden prompt in his mind made Ke Yuan stunned, and there was some fear in his eyes, "How could it be.."
At this moment, he began to believe that what Hong Lie said might be true.
"No way, I'm going to go back and see."
Muttering and pushing away the teacher who had walked in front of him, Ke Yuan rushed home.
Ke Yuan, who had never taken the initiative to enter the meta-brain space, lay on the bed as soon as he entered the house, closing his eyes and praying that he could return to the space.
I don't know if it's the sadness of losing Yang Piaopiao, or the constantly rising and falling chest at the moment, Ke Yuan can't sleep.
Tonight's F City is not as noisy as it used to be.
Yang Piaopiao's disappearance, except for Ke Yuan, no one knows.
"Initiator, welcome back to the Meta Brain Space."
As soon as his body was condensed, Ke Yu walked directly to the front of the list.
Below, 0.8% of the completion is the same as what the brain is prompted during the day.
Swiped the list up and down, and there was no news about Yang Piaopiao.
"Where did you take Piao Piao!" Helplessly shouted into the light curtain above him, but no one responded.
This time, Meta Brain Space gave a lot more time than usual.
There was a sharp pain in his chest, and Ke Yuan knelt on the ground and gasped for air.
"How could it be..."
Until the space repelled Ke Yuan, he didn't press a single button in front of the list.
Woke up in bed and subconsciously looked to the side.
Closing his eyes and leaning against the wall, Yang Piaopiao's voice seemed to be in his ears in his memory, "Ke Yuan, I really want to marry you." ”
Silent tears dripped down, and my heart was like a knife.
It turns out that all his abilities are obtained in this way.
It's not like a hunt for killing, but like Yang Piaopiao, like a lottery, but it's more ruthless, once it's drawn, there's no chance to resist.
"Ahh The empty room amplified the sound countless times, but it couldn't call Yang Piaopiao back.
Looking at his trembling hands, Ke Yuan's eyes were red, "It's all the fault of this ability, if it weren't for them, Piao Piao wouldn't have disappeared!" ”
Suddenly, it occurred to Ke Yu that Hong Lie seemed to have known this for a long time.
"I'm going back to the meta-brain space, and then I'm going to find Hong Hunt." Thinking like this, Ke Yuan fell back to the bed, closing his eyes and waiting for the next moment to return to space.
I don't know if the meta-brain space felt Ke Yuan's expectation, and Ke Yuan, who had not yet fallen asleep, returned to the white space he had just left in an instant.
Looking at the ground around him and the list suspended in mid-air in surprise, Ke Yu's mood was finally relieved, "Back?" ”
Walking quickly to the front of the list, as if knowing Ke Yuan's sacrifice, this time he gained quite a lot of points.
Although the fire element is more useful in actual combat, the wind element has reached two levels after all, and it is a bit of a waste to turn to other abilities.
The many battles with Hong Lie have made Ke Yuan's control of the wind element more and more proficient, but the disadvantage is that the element has not substantially strengthened Ke Yuan's own.
After choosing the third stage of wind attribute enhancement, Ke Yu strengthened his body again.
The parts chosen this time were the arms and legs, and in the battle, Ke Yu found that the most used parts were these two parts, and they were the ones who were most likely to be injured.
In addition to these, there are still points left.
Ke Yuan, who had never owned such a huge amount of money, didn't know how to use it.
The Wind Elemental's skills will only be activated in the fourth stage, so that Ke Yu will only be able to choose abilities other than attribute enhancements.
"Fire resistance.." Thinking of Hong Hunt's flaming fist, Ke Yu didn't think about it anymore.
It's also the third order, and this time, it's only enough to buy the first order of fire resistance.
A lot of time was wasted, and when the list began to flicker, Ke Wei stepped back slightly, closing his eyes and waiting for the space to teleport him out.
With a roar, Ke Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.
It was cloudy outside, and it seemed that he didn't want these students who had just gone through the college entrance examination to indulge themselves too much.
After the wind element reached the third order, the world in Ke Yuan's eyes changed again.
The green element had disappeared, and with a slight wave of the hand, the wind element automatically floated in the palm of the hand.
Close your eyes and slowly gather the wind elemental beneath you.
For the first time, Ke Wei could see the lines on the ceiling so clearly, and his floating body floated around the room.
With some joy, Ke Yuan smiled and said, "Piao Piao, look, I will fly." ”
As soon as the words were spoken, his expression darkened.
With a thunderous roar, Ke Yuan picked up a coat, pushed open the window and jumped out.
The wind carried Ke Yuan's body and slowly descended, and when he turned around, the Nanhu community was already kilometers away.
Running all the way to the police station, Xiao Dai was dealing with the aftermath of Zhao Le's case.
Seeing Ke Yuan push the door in, he said jokingly: "Ouch, the top student is here?" ”
It's just that the current Ke Yu has no intention of answering.
"Brother Dai, have you found Hong Hunt?"
Xiao Dai shook his head, "Since he disappeared last time, no one has seen him again, and the only sighting site reported by the masses is near the central square." ”
Ke Yu nodded, "Got it." ”
Seeing Ke Yuan's abnormality, Xiao Dai chased after him, "Ke Yuan, what's wrong?" ”
After a pause, Ke Vain held back the tears in his eyes, "Piao, she's gone." ”
Taking off Xiao Dai's arm on his shoulder, Ke Yuan's body slowly floated and flew into the air.
"Can you still fly?" Even though Ke Yuan had already brought too much shock to himself, seeing Ke Yuan fly out of thin air with his own eyes, Xiao Dai still couldn't accept it.
It wasn't until Ke Pian disappeared from view that Xiao Dai reacted, "Yang Piaopiao is gone?" ”
Hurriedly returned to the office and said "Out of the team!" ”
The rain hit his body, and Ke Yu didn't fly fast, and sometimes even fell inexplicably.
But it's much better than running, and he doesn't care about hiding his body, Ke Yuan just wants to find Hong Hunt as soon as possible, and then ask him the reason for the matter.
In the central square, Ke Yu looked at this place in a trance.
The overseer, the old man who bought the cherries, they were all here.
"Hunting! Come out and meet me! ”
In the middle of the square, Ke Yuan shouted to the sky.
The breeze came from behind him, and Ke Pi dodged sideways, followed by a whip kick backwards.
Although there was no human figure in sight, the sound of rain trampling was heard.
Facing the emptiness in front of him, Ke Yuan slowly spoke, "I'm not here to fight with you, I want to ask you something." ”
For some reason, it was not raining in the open space in front of me.
Then, Hong Lie appeared in front of Ke Yu with a grin, holding a black umbrella in his hand.
"What do you want to ask?"
Ke Piao turned around and looked at Hong Lie, and slowly spoke, "Yang Piaopiao, she disappeared today." ”
Hong Lie nodded indifferently, "And then?" ”
"Where has she gone?"
Hong Lie raised his eyebrows, "It's dead." ”
This news made Ke Yu unexpected, and he approached Hong Hunt excitedly, and some couldn't accept it, "Impossible!" Why her! ”
Hong Lie shrugged his shoulders, "How do I know, what I can tell you is that she can't come back, don't think about it." ”
Ke Yu shook his head quickly, "Impossible, you lied to me!" ”
Hong Lie sneered, "Ke Yuan, I'll tell you one last time, they are mortals and doomed to die!" ”
Hong Lie's hand reached out of the umbrella to catch a little rain.
"Even if you and I are enhancers, it is very likely that they will be deleted by the meta-brain space in the end, and these mortals, like rain, will evaporate when the sky is clear."
With a flick of a finger, the rain disappeared from the palm.
Hong Lie smiled "hehe", slowly retreated, and the whole person disappeared into the rain curtain.
Ke Bai knelt on the ground, covering his face and crying bitterly.
The siren sounded, and Xiao Dai hurriedly ran out of the car.
"Ke Yuan, what's wrong?"
As if grasping a life-saving straw, Ke Yuan hugged Xiao Dai's leg and cried loudly: "Brother Dai, Piao Piao can't come back!" ”
Xiao Dai was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”
The clasped fingers cut the palm of the blood, and Ke was silent.
Xiao Dai squatted down and held Ke Yuan's shoulders, "What about you?" What do you mean by not coming back? ”
Seeing Ke Yu giving up on himself so much, Xiao Dai dragged him to the car.
"If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it at the police station."
Turn the key, put it in gear, and roll up a wave.
Like a puppet, he was pushed back to the police office by Xiao Dai, and it happened that Team Jiang was writing documents with his head down.
Seeing the two people soaking wet, they were a little puzzled: "What's wrong with you?" ”
Ke was silent, and Xiao Dai had to explain, "Yang Piaopiao is gone." ”
The corner of Team Jiang's eyes twitched, "When did it happen?" ”
Pushing Ke Yuan in front of him, "You ask him." ”
Taking off the eyes on the bridge of his nose, Team Jiang spoke: "What's the matter, Ke Yuan? ”
"Don't look for it, it's a waste of effort to find it." Throwing down the sentence in despair, Ke Yuan left the office.
"Ke Vain, Ke Vain!" Team Jiang got up and chased after him.
Outside the building, there was no human figure.
Standing in front of the door, Ke Yu hesitated for a long time.
It seemed reluctant to accept this fact, but eventually, he pushed the door and walked into the room.
The fragrance on Yang Piaopiao's body seemed to be still wafting in the room, but the person disappeared.
On the wall, the portrait of Yang Piaopiao's mother still hangs on it.
"Auntie, I'm sorry for you."
Kneeling in front of the remains of the three elders, Ke couldn't cry.
Yang Piaopiao's disappearance, except for Ke Yu and Hong Lie, no third person knew about it.
The phone of the "Ringing Ring" police force rang suddenly, and Xiao Dai, who was busy with his office, hurriedly ran up to connect it.
"Hello, who?"
"Brother Dai, you tell Team Jiang that I want to take the police academy."
Xiao Dai on the other end of the phone was a little surprised: "Have you decided?" ”
Ke Wei wrapped his hand with a strip of cloth, his right shoulder was slightly raised and his head was clamped between the phone.
"Hmm."
Xiao Dai nodded and said, "Team Jiang has gone to the city for a meeting, and I'll tell him when he comes back." ”
"No, I'll go find him."
Pushing open the door, Ke Yuan looked back at the wall directly above the computer desk, and there was a girl with a big smile.
At this moment, the streets of F City are full of students who came out to release themselves after the college entrance examination.
Ke Yuan, who was in a hurry, seemed out of place with them, and Xiao Dai, the place where the Jiang team was meeting, had already informed him.
Located in the very center of the entire city of F, the municipal building.
The cordon of martial law in the audience kept Ke Yuan outside, so he had to wait obediently.
It wasn't until noon that officials came out one after another.
Team Jiang was the last to come out, and beside him was Ju Liu, and the two were whispering something.
The figure on the side of the road was a little familiar, and Team Jiang fixed his eyes on it, "Ke Yuan?" Why are you here? ”
Ke Wei smiled and ran forward, "Team Jiang, I'm here to find you." ”
Liu Ju was also a little surprised, "What, the life after the exam is too boring, and I want to come to the police station to go around?" ”
took out the letter of recommendation from his pocket and handed it to Team Jiang, Ke Yuan said sincerely: "Team Jiang, I want to go to the police academy." ”
Glancing at Liu Ju, Team Jiang was a little embarrassed, "Ke Yuan, it's not that I don't want you to go, this meeting just opened this morning, this police academy, is not allowed to recommend enrollment." ”
Liu Ju's face was also a little apologetic, "Especially the full moon case has not been solved until now, and it is very strict from above, so..."
Ke Yuan bit his lip and nodded, "It's okay." ”
Looking at Ke Yuan's somewhat disappointed face, Team Jiang couldn't bear it, "Ke Yuan, when you applied for the volunteer form, did you fill in the police academy in L Province?" ”
The volunteer form was finally determined to be made by Yang Piaopiao, but it seemed that there was no in his impression.
Ke Yuan shook his head, "There shouldn't be, I'm from the same school as Piaopiao." ”
Hearing Yang Piaopiao's name, Team Jiang suddenly remembered what Ke Pian said when he came to the police station a few days ago, "By the way, have you found Yang Piaopiao?" ”
Ke Yu was silent, and after a long while, he spoke: "Team Jiang, Piao Piao has passed away. ”
After speaking, he put the letter of recommendation in his pocket and left the municipal building, leaving only the two people who looked at each other.
Unknowingly, Ke Yu walked to the central square alone.
The old man who sold cherries was still setting up a stall on the side of the road, and Ke Yuan walked forward with a smile, "Grandpa, how are you doing?" ”
Seeing Ke Yu come to see him, the old man was very happy, and pulled him to his side, "It's much better, I heard that you took the college entrance examination, how is it, young man." ”
Every time the college entrance examination is mentioned, Ke Yuanxin will be stabbed with a knife.
Forced a smile replied, "It's not bad, I'll wait for the news now." ”
The old man also nodded again and again, "That's good, you're a good boy, you have to work hard." ”
After speaking, he took out a few blue tickets from the cloth bag on his waist and stuffed them to Ke Yuan, "Take it and buy something to eat yourself." ”
Ke Yu hurriedly pushed back, "Grandpa, how can I ask for your things." ”
The old man stubbornly stuffed the money to Ke Yuan, "You just take it, thanks to you and I can sell cherries here, and thanks to your granddaughter can go to school." ”
Looking at the crumpled money in his hand, Ke Yuan had no choice but to accept it.
"By the way, grandpa, where does your granddaughter go to school?"
The old man thought for a long time, "It seems to be in the middle school of democracy." ”
"yes, that's a good school." When he said this, Ke Yuan thought of himself at that time.
Just as Ke Pi was about to leave, a man ran out of the department store directly opposite.
Carrying a lady's satchel in her hand, she ran across the road to the square in a panic.
After a while, a woman ran out of breath from inside the mall, "Catch, catch the thief!" ”
The man passed by Ke Yuan, and when he was puzzled, Ke Yuan heard the woman's shouting.
Putting the money on the cherry stand, Ke Yu turned around and chased after him.
The thief was very good at running, but unfortunately he found the wrong opponent.
Ke Pian followed unhurriedly, neither catching the thief nor being thrown away by him.
At first, the thief ran hard while looking back at Ke Yuan, but later found that Ke Yuan seemed to be teasing him.
Ke Yuan, who was chasing the thief, looked relaxed, "Raise your legs and speed up!" ”
The strong feeling of pressure made the thief's last nerve also severe, and he sat on the ground.
looked at Ke Yuan, who was getting closer and closer to him, and said to himself: "Just a broken bag, you chased me for three streets." ”
snatched the satchel from the thief's hand, Ke Yuan sneered and said, "With your physical strength, you are still a thief." ”
After waiting for a long time, the woman who had been snatched of her satchel caught up breathlessly.
The grade seemed to be the same as Ke Yuan, and after taking the bag from Ke Yuan's hand, he bowed again and again, "Thank you." ”
Ke Yu was about to leave when a familiar voice came.
"Baby, what's wrong?" A man also caught up with him, hugged the girl and said with concern.
Turning around, "Kong Ning?" ”
