Chapter 22: Lazy Sunset

The sun in the sky seemed to be about to go down, and it was lazily sprinkling the glowing red sunset. Liu Mengchao narrowed his eyes slightly, letting these sunsets shine on his body. He wasn't walking slowly, but he wasn't so hurried. It's not so much that he is in a hurry, but that Liu Mengchao is wandering aimlessly now.

On the one hand, such a walk helps Liu Mengchao organize his thoughts, and on the other hand, Liu Mengchao is also searching for some people. Because after Liu Mengchao jumped down from the tall tower using the Leap of Faith, he had already discovered a problem that was not serious, but it was somewhat annoying.

The world knows nothing of itself. Where the so-called Central City is, if it is like a headless fly, it may destroy everything that was originally planned.

And Liu Mengchao, who was in such a predicament, immediately appeared in his mind the appearance of a person.

Edward? Erik.

Anyway, this short, blond braided man is the only person he knows in this world, no matter which aspect, if you want to get as close to the plot as possible, I'm afraid the best way is to rely on the protagonist's actions, right?

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao's pace couldn't help but speed up a little. He knew that the Edward brothers' goal was the Philosopher's Stone, and although the stone in his hand had just been destroyed, he also learned the whereabouts of the Philosopher's Stone from Rust again. Central City is the answer that woman gave herself.

It's funny, isn't it?

Liu Mengchao asked himself like this, and replied to himself like this.

Walking aimlessly, turning a street or two, and walking through a street or two, Liu Mengchao still did not see the Edward brothers in his field of vision. Even though Edward was short and unrecognizable, his younger brother in armor was so tall that he could tell it at a glance even in the crowd. The so-called lighthouse in the sea of people. Isn't that what you say?

"Sir!"

Just as he was about to continue walking, a soft cry suddenly came from behind Liu Mengchao. This voice is somewhat familiar to Liu Mengchao, and it is simply familiar to the point of being a little weird. After all, there are not many people Liu Mengchao knows in this world, and even very few.

So when he heard the voice behind him, the corners of Liu Mengchao's mouth grinned slightly, and he laughed directly. I saw him turn around slowly and look at the person walking behind him.

Long hair, white dress.

This is the scene when it first comes into view, with a slender figure accompanied by a pair of watery eyes. His reddish-brown eyes seemed to be able to speak at any moment.

"You're calling me?"

Liu Mengchao turned around as he spoke. He smiled at the girl who appeared in front of him, looking at this face that was all too familiar. Rosa, that's the girl's name. It's just that this girl doesn't seem to have any resemblance to the original at all, no......

It should be more interesting.

"Willow ...... Dream tide, is that you? ”

Obviously, they had only met each other just now, but at this moment, this girl's appearance was like seeing Liu Mengchao for the first time. No, the expression on her face was as if she had been given a new lease of life.

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao's footsteps slowly walked forward. A smile spread across his face. This smile is like seeing a friend I haven't seen for a long time, and I am full of hearty enthusiasm.

"I ...... Thank you for giving me the courage to live again...... I...... I'm completely different from what I used to be......"

Rosa said as she ran towards Liu Mengchao. The long reddish-brown hair on the back of her head also fluttered at this moment, like a flag waving in the wind. The girl's steps are so light. It's just that the smile on his face is so warm, as if he has seen a long-lost lover. There seemed to be tears in her eyes.

No one will refuse to throw herself into her arms, especially a girl with a pure appearance and tears in her eyes.

Liu Mengchao will not refuse as it should be. Not only did he not refuse, but he even opened his arms with a smile on his face.

Without hesitation, Rosa threw herself into Liu Mengchao's arms.

"I ...... What a pleasure to meet you! ”

"Me too."

Liu Mengchao nodded slowly.

"I'm glad to see you when you died." Rosa looked up suddenly. A rare smile suddenly appeared in those tear-filled eyes, "I think you should be able to feel the hard thing on your lower abdomen by now, right?" ”

These were Rosa's words, and Liu Mengchao did not answer. He still held the girl in his right hand, and there was still a smile on his face.

"Although you are a precious human pillar, it does not mean that you cannot be damaged at all." The corners of Rosa's mouth grinned slightly, and her eyes stared at Liu Mengchao and said, "After all, I'm not an incompetent Rust. ”

"Really?"

Liu Mengchao did not refute Rosa's words in front of him, and even the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, as if the person being pointed at a gun was not him.

"Of course!"

"No, I think you're still a little bit off." Liu Mengchao said with a smile, and then the whole person turned around without hesitation.

"You!"

Rosa subconsciously wanted to pull the trigger of the gun in her hand, but suddenly discovered something even more terrifying! I don't know when the trigger of the pistol was actually broken, and it couldn't be pulled at all!

And in the next second, Rosa felt a cold chill suddenly appear on her neck.

The Hidden Blade, once again appeared where it should have been, at the right time.

Liu Mengchao was behind Rosa, the corners of his mouth grinning slightly, with a hint of indifference and mocking smile.

"I don't know who you are, but I think you're pretty good at imitating people. I have to say that the girl named Rosa you imitated has no flaws in her appearance. ”

"From looks?!"

Rosa, who was pointed at her neck with a Hidden Blade by Liu Mengchao, was obviously angry. This is his most proud skill, and now he is actually evaluated by Liu Mengchao as just in appearance! This is a great shame, this is a great mockery!

"You see, if you look emotionally, your expression should be the same as theirs right now."

As soon as Liu Mengchao's words fell, Rosa's eyes subconsciously looked into the distance.

Brother Edward!

This is the person who appeared in her eyes, and although the two brothers were far apart, he could still feel the nervousness conveyed by the two brothers.

"So, goodbye, botched copycat."

Liu Mengchao's left hand gently stepped forward, and the Hidden Blade pierced Rosa's throat with a pop.

"Liu Mengchao! What are you doing! ”

Blood splattered, accompanied by Edward's incredulous questioning, swaying in the lazy sunset. (To be continued......)
