Chapter 88: Lights [1/2]
The uneasiness slowly fermented in Liu Mengchao's heart along with the sunshine that was gradually sinking westward, and it seemed that an inexplicable taste began to squirm from Liu Mengchao's stomach, making him gradually feel uncomfortable.
"Your face is a little pale, Liu Mengchao."
Qi Qi, who had been walking in front of Liu Mengchao, suddenly turned his head, and looked at Liu Mengchao quietly with a pair of red eyes, as if he was also silently asking Liu Mengchao about his current physical condition.
Liu Mengchao didn't answer, just shook his head lightly, signaling that everything was okay. It's just that the feeling of uneasiness that is getting stronger and stronger has already spread all over Liu Mengchao's body unconsciously, making him almost speechless.
"We're ......"
At this moment, the footsteps of the prayer stopped. In front of them was a well-decorated apartment. Liu Mengchao glanced up, there were seven floors in total, facing south, and the sun should be very good.
With this in mind, Liu Mengchao followed behind Qi Qi step by step, walking through the slightly dim steps to the door of the room.
"Kazuma...... Pray!? ”
Sakura's back first appeared in front of Liu Mengchao, accompanied by a scream that almost made everyone cover their ears.
"You too...... Live here!? ”
Sakura Manji's brown eyes were full of surprise. I saw that he kept scanning Liu Mengchao with an inquiring gaze, and then returned to Qi Qi's side.
"You...... Do you live with Liu Mengchao? ”
Sakura Manji asked a little nervously, but there was a curious expression on his face.
"After all, it's a personal bodyguard, and this is also a helpless thing." Liu Mengchao smiled nonchalantly, as if he was talking about an innocuous little thing.
"But...... You are...... A man! Sakura shouted softly, as if a louder voice would make it seem disrespectful to Kasuke.
"Well, I'm a man." Liu Mengchao smiled and nodded, "Fully functional, normal orientation." Have a formally married wife. I have a lively and lovely sister and ......."
Liu Mengchao gently pouted his finger on the tip of his nose, then laughed and said, "There are still many lovers who have been let down by me." ”
It's ...... It's incredible.
This is what Sakura Manji wants to say most in his heart now. His gaze kept wandering over the bodies of Qi Qi and Liu Mengchao, and then ran away timidly like an antelope hiding from a lion.
This...... What the hell is it...... Liu Mengchao...... He, he, he, he! Is he the lover of all good-looking girls!
Sakura Manji wanted to yell at Liu Mengchao, but after thinking about the feeling of being pointed at a gun in the back of his head, Sakura Manji turned around wisely and pointed his face at the door.
"That'...... I'm really lucky...... Be able to be neighbors with Kazuki-san. Sakura Manji struggled to make his voice sound high-spirited. Full of joy.
"Hmmm......"
Liu Mengchao's brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at Sakura Manji with his back to his body again. His body was slightly rickety, as if he wanted to lower his center of gravity.
This is...... This is......
Liu Mengchao took a deep breath and suddenly reflected. This kind of body movement,It's obviously the performance of the frustrated.,How slow is it?,Will completely ignore Sakura Manji's body language.。
Could it be that the ability of your own psychology has deteriorated?
Liu Mengchao was a little unsure, but he shook his head slightly, watching Sakura Manji open the door. disappeared in front of him without a sound.
"Click."
With a soft sound, Kasuki also followed the cherry blossom and opened the door.
Inside the house, it was dark. Nothing to see.
This is Liu Mengchao's first feeling.
The footsteps of Qi Qi were also very light, and the girl who walked in front of Liu Mengchao was like a white and light feather, gently floating in front of Liu Mengchao's eyes and into the quiet and dark room.
"No lights?"
Liu Mengchao followed Qi Qi into the room. I couldn't help but ask.
There was no answer, only a huge floor-to-ceiling window answered Liu Mengchao's question. The girl with long pink hair and shawl is barefoot, like a girl stepping on a clear stream. Quietly but with a hint of cheerfulness, he walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.
There is only a single piece of transparent glass on the window, which quietly shows the world outside in front of Kai Qi. And now, the barefoot girl sat in front of this window, her long pink hair scattered on her knees, and her hands as white as jade wrapped around her knees, rippling around Liu Mengchao's body with the girl's light breathing.
It's like a painting.
Liu Mengchao laughed unconsciously, took his own steps, and stood beside Qi Qi. He didn't speak, maybe the scene in front of him was not suitable for a sound, so even the Qi Qi, who liked to sing, was silent at this moment.
I don't know how long it took to say that when there were more and more lights outside the window, Liu Mengchao smiled self-deprecatingly and sat down.
The floor is covered with a sturdy coffee-colored floor, which is not hard, but seems to be somewhat soft.
The two people's shoulders are so close that it seems that they can easily reach each other's side even by breathing.
Liu Mengchao still didn't speak, but Qi Qi's bright red eyes had already lit up. Liu Mengchao, who was sitting next to her, couldn't tell whether it was the light outside the window that illuminated the eyes of Qi Qi beside her, or the eyes of Qi Qi that illuminated the world outside the window.
Everything is like a dream.
Suddenly, a soft laugh rang in Liu Mengchao's ears. Somewhat unexpectedly, Liu Mengchao turned his head and looked at Qi Qi's slender neck like white porcelain, and a mischievous strand of long pink hair on top of his pink ears.
"Liu Mengchao, isn't this just a lamp?"
Qi Qi turned his head and said to Liu Mengchao with a smile. Her eyes were bright, as bright as the light outside the window, Liu Mengchao met Qi Qi's eyes, and turned her head to look at the room that was still dark just now.
At this moment, it seemed that everything in the room became clear. You can see a double bed covered with a white bedspread, you can see the chair huddled in the corner, and you can see a wide sofa.
"The room was completely illuminated." Liu Mengchao nodded, smiling and echoing the words, "It's really clear." ”
The room was lit by the light outside the window, and the girl's eyes were lit up by the stars.
Liu Mengchao raised his head slightly, but looked directly into the distance.
At a great distance. There seemed to be darkness, unlit by the sparkling lights.
————————————————————————————————————
In another dimly lit room, there was a young man with a pale face, standing in front of the bed, looking at the girl lying on the bed, without saying a word.
She ...... I haven't woken up yet. ”
The young man's voice trembled slightly, and his face turned even paler. Cold sweat was running down his cheeks without saying a word.
"Yes, until now...... She didn't wake up. Liu Ling tilted his head slightly, looking at Qi Xiaoxiao, who was completely asleep, and his tone became anxious. Do you know what's going on, Gao Xiaowan? ”
She couldn't help but ask out loud, wanting to get some answers from Gao Xiaowan. It's just that Gao Xiaowan just shook her head slightly, and staggered back to the door.
I saw Gao Xiaowan's eyes slowly turning red, and they seemed to be filled with blood.
"I want to ...... Now only one thing is clearest. Gao Xiaowan said slowly, her voice became jerky, and it seemed that countless stones were stuck in Gao Xiaowan's throat, "For example, ......"
"Qi Xiaoxiao is not dead." Liu Ling said slowly, his voice was as soft as the sound of the wind.
"But it didn't live either." Gao Xiaowan said without hesitation. "Liu Ling, you also saw Qi Xiaoxiao's forehead, right?"
"It's a burn mark." Liu Ling said softly beside Gao Xiaowan, as if he was worried that he would wake up Qi Xiaoxiao who was asleep, "And Qi Xiaoxiao's hand is ......"
"It's left-handed......," Gao Xiaowan said next. The teeth were almost chattering, "There were burn marks too." ”
"But who can directly hurt Qi Xiaoxiao." Liu Ling shook his head gently, "If you look at it purely from the perspective of combat effectiveness, Xia Na is only in the middle of Qi Xiaoxiao. ”
Not to mention that although Xiana is fighting with Qi Xiaoxiao. But this kind of thing will never be done. Her abilities also have nothing to do with such sleep. ”
Gao Xiaowan let out a long sigh, but in the blink of an eye, her forehead was already covered with sweat. The sweat ran down Gao Xiaowan's forehead and down her cheeks. It dripped to the ground with a clatter.
"So...... There is only one explanation for this situation. Liu Ling squinted slightly, looked at Qi Xiaoxiao who had fallen into a dead sleep, and said in a trembling voice, "It can only be 'him'." ”
"In other words......", not only Liu Ling, but even Gao Xiaowan's voice became trembling, "'He' is by our side now, constantly watching us......"
"Watching us struggle in the trap of 'his' death......," Liu Ling said softly.
"But traps always have to have a purpose...... Otherwise, what would keep Qi Xiaoxiao alive? Gao Xiaowan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Maybe for 'him', Qi Xiaoxiao is just a bait." ”
"So what is the object of the entrapment...... It must be ......"
"Liu Mengchao."
In this dimly lit room, the two looked at each other and said the answer in their hearts. Although none of them had seen the plan of the man hiding behind the scenes, they already knew what 'he' was trying to do.
It's just that the two wise men can only look at each other wordlessly at this time.
After a long time, Gao Xiaowan took a deep breath and looked at Qi Xiaoxiao, who had fallen into a deep sleep. I saw Gao Xiaowan's black eyes, which seemed to be some women, quietly glowing, and then smiled at Liu Ling who was standing in front of him.
"Be vigilant and observant." Gao Xiaowan pursed her lips, "Don't sleep." ”
There is also Gao Xiaowan's most reluctant advice to Liu Ling.
"Wait for Liu Mengchao to come back."
Liu Ling nodded lightly, sighed slightly, looked at Gao Xiaowan's back, and asked slowly, "What about you?" “
"Me?"
The corners of Gao Xiaowan's mouth, who was facing away from Liu Ling, suddenly curled, it was not a timid smile, it was a smile of expectation, it was a smile full of fiery desire to win.
I saw Gao Xiaowan put her hand into the right pocket, groping for the empty pocket, until she found the candy hidden in the corner.
"I'm going to get some sleep."
When the words fell, a bright red candy wrapper slowly fell from Gao Xiaowan's side, silently. (To be continued......)
