Chapter 7 Choice and Responsibility

When I went back, the time was close to evening, the neon lights on both sides of the road were constantly reflected in the reversing mirror, the shit shed where the barbecue was bought was still smoking, and the waiter in front of the KTV door also welcomed the guests with a smile on his face, and occasionally there were two houses with red lights and no house number, and through the window you could clearly see the enchanting woman sitting on the sofa inside, throwing winks at the pedestrians passing by from time to time, everything seemed so harmonious, and the smile was always on everyone's face. Although their hearts are suppressed by the bitter water, what is revealed outside is always a smile like a spring breeze, reflecting each other with this season.

No one will know the way, and the tears behind them will not be known, at this moment, the young man driving a luxury car has escaped death several times, and when others cast that kind of envious and complicated eyes, he can only leave an indifferent expression, and then pass by.

"Driving such a good car at such a young age, hey, it's really unfair in this world." Occasionally, a woman would make such a voice, and then drown in the laughter and hustle and bustle of the city, maybe they will not look at each other again in this life, or maybe one day they will meet in that game of life and death, these future things, even the apostles are afraid that they can't predict.

"Drip, drip, drip." There was a faint signal sound on the watch, a red light flashed non-stop, Lin Xiu had just stopped the car at this time, it was not in the game of the Apostle at this time, and he even communicated in this way, obviously because he didn't want others to detect it, Xu Ningning's name was already displayed on the watch, and how far away the other party was from him was clearly visible. This positioning is really useful. It's also thanks to the scientific genius of Gray Plains. Otherwise, it would be a joke to ask Lin Xiu and them to take some parts to assemble this kind of thing.

"Ning Ning, what's the matter?" Being able to call Lin Xiu in such a way at this time was obviously an emergency situation, could it be that they had also met someone from the Apostle Game? I didn't find out when I sent Xiao Ai back just now, and since Xu Ningning had time to contact him, it means that even if the other party is very strong, the gap should not be too big.

"Don't worry. It's okay now, it's because someone came to our house during the day and mentioned something about you, and it seems that he... I know you very well, and I always have a vague feeling that he knows something about us. Xu Ningning's clear voice came from inside the watch.

"What do you mean?" Lin Xiu frowned, listening to Xu Ningning's tone, this person's origin is not small, as for the matter between them, it can be imagined. Naturally, it is an apostle game, and for Lin Xiu, a little person who has always been unknown and has no sense of existence. The other party can be called very familiar, then it is a little abnormal.

"Don't worry, this person shouldn't have any malicious intent, and his identity..., I think we'd better meet and talk." Xu Ningning explained two sentences, feeling that it was not clear to say this, after all, he was going to ask Lin Xiu to come out and make it clear in person, Lin Xiu naturally nodded and agreed, hung up the communicator, and immediately contacted Tifa, this kind of thing is naturally two people want to go together.

On the highway, a red flag is driving quietly, four black Audis are guarding it, and there is a middle-aged man in his forties sitting quietly in the car, who is thinking about the problem with his brows locked at the moment, the two inverted sword-like eyebrows, almost colliding together, he is worried about whether there will be a spark of impact flashing on his face, it seems that he has fallen into some kind of deep thought, the driver is driving quietly, occasionally looking at Fang Jianguo with a locked brow through the rearview mirror, After that, he continued his work imperceptibly, for the chief's habits, he had become accustomed to it, usually before he made a major decision, he would be so quiet as a dead man, if it weren't for the faint sound of breathing, I was worried that he would have died, but the driver also knew that when he recovered from this state of old monkhood, it was usually a series of resolute orders, like a storm that caught anyone off guard.

Fang Jianguo did have a lot of doubts, although he met Xu Ningning today to talk about some unrelated things on the surface, he still vaguely sensed something, what was it? It's normal, everything is too normal, normal makes him feel that there must be a certain point that he has neglected, and it is obviously no longer necessary to go to Lin Xiu again, if everything is really as he guessed, it will not only not solve the problem, but will also cause the other party to be unnecessarily vigilant, but if you want to leave someone to watch, it is really a bit too much, but when he thinks of that somewhat absurd speculation, he himself feels that he has some paranoia.

"Chief, the phone number of the research office." The driver picked up the phone hanging in front of him, stretched out his hand and handed it to Fang Jianguo in the back, the scientific research room has been busy day and night recently, even if it is a busy time, Fang Jianguo will answer the call from there as soon as possible, and the secretary who has been inseparable has also been left by him, which is enough to imagine what kind of attention he has.

"What's the matter?" Fang Jianguo stretched his brows slightly, hoping that there would be some better news over there, after all, these things that have happened recently are a little too weird, and those mysterious people who used to harass the border seem to have evaporated from the world, and they have not appeared again until today.

"Chief! Heads! Call... Great, great! There was a somewhat incoherent voice from the secretary, and there was that irrepressible excitement in his voice, which obviously had achieved good results in some aspects, and for a while he said two words in a row that were too good and did not mention the point, which would have been reprimanded in the past.

"That man... Wake up! After a few breaths of heavy breath, the woman's voice returned to normal slightly, and finally said these five keywords, but with these five words, she knew very well how long it had been bothering Fang Jianguo and their entire research room.

Under the night sky, the speed of the car increased significantly, leaving a long exhaust that disappeared into the moonlit road. this day. Fang Jianguo has been looking forward to it for a long time. If some results can be achieved here, then Lin Xiu and their side can be put away first, for the orphan of the former captain, he doesn't want him to get involved too deeply, but if it really comes to the necessary moment, then he can't worry about those problems, fortunately, the scientific research room still completed the task one step ahead of schedule. As long as he can communicate, Fang Jianguo believes that he can get a lot of useful news, these news, he has a feeling in the dark, it is in line with his guess, and as for whether Lin Xiu will take the initiative to find him, he can not think about it for the time being.

On the other side, after receiving a hurried call from Xu Ningning, Lin Xiu and Tifa quickly met in a hotel booked by Xu Ningning, and the two beauties were the kind that made it difficult to look away at a glance. It's just that Lin Xiu is a little more ordinary, and these three people have opened a room. And followed by an eight-year-old girl, the eyes of several waiters were a little ambiguous.

Xu Ningning recounted what Fang Jianguo said to himself to Lin Xiu word for word, including the things about his parents, Fang Jianguo did not deliberately hide it, Xu Ningning was a little hesitant at the time, but seeing Lin Xiu's eager childlike eyes, he finally told him that his parents did not die of illness, but performed a special mission and unfortunately died, these things were once regarded as top secrets, but now that Fang Jianguo has said it, it is naturally not a secret.

And Lin Xiu didn't have any incurable heart disease, it was a kind of body improver, which could change all the structure of the human body, concentrate, and even see the vibration of the fly's wings, of course, now for them as travelers in the apostle game, it is naturally nothing, but if it is an ordinary person or a soldier, it is too powerful.

Although there have been all kinds of speculations for a long time, and I have also suspected what the reason for the death of my parents, Lin Xiu never thought that it would be so dramatic, is it a pity? Melancholy? Emotional? Maybe there are all of them, or maybe the slightest illusion that I once had, can be extinguished after all, and finally Lin Xiu raised his head and leaned back on the sofa, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but it was so bitter, Tifa knew that he wanted to use this way to control his falling tears, but they still flowed down the corners of his eyes.

There was some silence in the room for a while, Xu Ningning's heart was also noisy, how could she have thought that Lin Xiu's parents were such powerful characters, that was Fang Jianguo's former captain, if it wasn't for the fact that he had entered the apostolic world by mistake, as long as Lin Xiu said a word to Fang Jianguo, it would obviously be a few grades higher in life, those who had looked down on him and rejected him, what a remorse it should be, but unfortunately life is always so dramatic, but at this moment, They were already struggling to survive in another world, where no one could help them in the slightest.

And through the gray plain mourning, obviously Xu Ningning also knew what kind of conflict occurred between the mysterious organization and the border not long ago, at this time, Fang Jianguo came to visit, and it was a little difficult to make people suspicious, fortunately, for Xiao Wai, they didn't have any relevant information, otherwise I am afraid that now they will be invited over and tea, after all, those bizarre stories like myths, not many people will believe it, even if Fang Jianguo wants to protect them, he has to consider more pressures, and it is even more difficult, They can't say these words at all, otherwise they will only be obliterated.

What Xu Ningning is most worried about is the phone number left by the other party after the most disappointment, there is such a relationship, Lin Xiu, who has never known anything about his parents, everything is added up, if you want to say that you don't take the initiative to contact, Xu Ningning feels that she may not be able to do it if she thinks about it, not to mention this Lin Xiu, who doesn't know anything about her parents and values her emotions more than her life, but once she has a relationship with Fang Jianguo, then their future road will be even more like walking on thin ice, these truths, Xu Ningning knows very well, if it is a sober Lin Xiu, Naturally, there is no problem, but this is a matter involving his parents, will he still be so sober?

It's just that she can't say any of this, she feels that she has no reason to let Lin Xiu give up such an opportunity, that's too cruel, he has already paid too much for this team, and now the battle sickle is inseparable, all the decisions are made by looking at Lin Xiu, if he speaks out to stop him, maybe he will give up, but for him, this is too cruel.

I don't know when, the gentle and slender fingers caressed Lin Xiu's face. Silently wiped the liquid that ran down the corner of his eye. Lin Xiu sensed that this was Tifa's move to sit beside him. He raised his hand in a panic, trying to wipe away his tears, he didn't want Tifa to worry about him, and he didn't want her to see his vulnerable side, but Tifa grabbed his hand and pressed it firmly on his leg.

"You're disobedient." What caught the eye was still that beautiful face, the bright and smart big eyes seemed to be able to see through Lin Xiu's heart, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed but he didn't look angry. It's more like a wordless comfort, a somewhat reproachful word, and when it is said in such a way, it is a disguised comfort.

"I've said it all, you... It's never a person, everyone will have a vulnerable side, if it were me, I would lie in your arms and cry out loud, and then let you coax me, if there is any decision. I know that my man will always be with me, so... The same goes for you. Because I love you the same. Gentle words, firm eyes, it seems that every time Lin Xiu's most fragile heart needs comfort, Tilfa will use his own way to heal the scarred heart, once, Lin Xiu longed for this feeling countless times, but today he finally has such a flawless woman by his side.

Sometimes, he feels that Tifa is like his big sister, taking care of him in every detail, while he is naïve like a child, always needs her care, which makes him feel ashamed of himself, and also makes him feel that he is the happiest one in the world.

"Uh-huh." Looking at Lin Xiu, whose eyes were still a little moist, Tifa nodded his head vigorously, it was a firm affirmation that there would not be any wavering, and his palm was slowly clenched in Tifa's palm, yes, he was no longer a person, he had Tifa, a partner, and his own team, any of his decisions could not be like before, only considering his own feelings, and getting more, so he would bear more, and any happiness would be obtained at the expense of sacrifice, this truth, Lin Xiu also understood, It seemed that in a moment, his eyes became firm, and it was a clearer tenacity than before.

"This is the phone number that Chief Fang left when he left." No matter what changes Lin Xiu's heart has gone through, or what has been decided, it is impossible for Xu Ningning to deliberately conceal these news, if he does that, it will be the first crack at the beginning of this team, trust is the foundation for a team to struggle, especially a team like them, once it is broken, what is waiting is a catastrophe, this truth, Xu Ningning knows it very well, therefore, even if he knows that Lin Xiu will sometimes be rash, but for the sake of the whole team, Xu Ningning can only choose to support.

"You..."Xu Ningning opened her mouth wide and looked at Lin Xiu in disbelief, but she didn't even look at the note, and the flames that burned in her palm burned it to ashes.

"It's going to trouble Ning Ning, you were hacked, if he calls you, he will say that he accidentally lost it." Lin Xiu shrugged his shoulders, he had fully recovered, and in his casual words, he had given the most powerful signal, he was no longer the ignorant and willful Lin Xiu, after experiencing this, he was also growing up and maturing at a speed unimaginable to others, and he had become a little responsible, knowing how to take responsibility, knowing how to sacrifice, and knowing how to give up, so as to be able to win more, Xu Ningning looked at Lin Xiu in front of him and gave him an appreciative look.

"Hmm, it's boring, you look pretty good when you cry, why did it end so quickly." Xiao Ai sat on the edge of the bed, kicked the slippers, and said with some unfinished words, Lin Xiu could only answer with embarrassment, but Tifa and Xu Ningning covered their mouths and chuckled, which made Lin Xiu even more embarrassed.

These episodes in reality will not affect them too much after all, since Lin Xiu has already made a decision, Xu Ningning does not have to continue to worry about it, I believe that he himself will be able to handle it very well, in the remaining few days, several teammates gathered together, after all, the next game is about to start, the time to return to reality, there are only a few days in total, the apostle will not postpone the time indefinitely because of someone's prayer or curse, what should come must come.

Xu Ningning rented a large garage in the suburbs, and the other two people led by Wei Dongxu spent most of their time here, usually Dongfang Ling would be beaten by Wei Dongxu with a blue nose and swollen face, maybe it was the loss of important people around them, which made them ask themselves like perverts, constantly becoming stronger and stronger.

There are still two days left before entering the game again, Lin Xiu took out all the props that he grabbed in these two games, and it is no wonder that the Hunter Guild will choose to rob itself to strengthen itself, looking at Lin Xiu's equipment poured out like an upstart, Wei Dongxu really wants to have such a forcible grab, and he can change to new equipment without points, this feeling is really cool.
