"Pretend...... A blue moon? I was stunned. James, what are you talking nonsense? ”

James looked at me seriously and said:

Mr. Yang...... It's not some nonsense, it's ...... It's really my personal decision...... I always thought I was a calm person...... But now, seeing the confinement like this, I really ...... Stand. I want to save her. What she just said...... I heard it all. I know the heart of the confinement...... However, this has nothing to do with her. I just wanted to save her...... Even if you die...... I don't regret it either......"

Mr. Yang...... I think everyone has the power to decide their own destiny. I think it's time for me to make my own destiny decisions. Please forgive me, Mr. Yang, for the next ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to help you, and I won't be able to accompany you on......"

James' words made me a little hard to believe my ears. Because I've been here these days, I've learned too much about James' character. I looked at James in a daze and said,

"James, this ...... It's not like your style......"

James smiled wryly and said:

"Actually, my style has always been simple since the game of God...... That is to protect the confinement ...... When Confinement was arrested, she hoped that you would be able to escape, so I helped Confinement fulfill her wish...... However, this is the wish of the confinement child, not mine. Now that her wish has come true, I can let go of my burdens and pursue my own wishes. ”

James's words are neither heavy nor light. But from his simple three or two sentences, I can deeply feel his deep meaning for the confinement.

This man is really in love with Yuezi.

He had already shown this when he was in the fire. I actually get it all the way.

James looked at me seriously and continued:

Zhu Qingyun said that he wanted to find Blue Moon and form an alliance with Blue Moon. As long as the blue moon appears, he can let the confinement go, so ...... I wanted to take the plunge and try it. Though...... It's almost impossible. However, if it succeeds......"

"But what if it fails?" I couldn't help but say, "What about you...... Will also die. ”

"If it were you, you had a glimmer of hope, would you go to save the confinement?" James looked at me and asked suddenly.

I stiffened slightly, then gritted my teeth and nodded.

"I will...... I would definitely go. However, Qiqi ...... I'm ...... now Can't leave Qiqi alone...... Alas. ”

Just before I could finish speaking, Xue Qi's weak voice suddenly came from the bed.

"Daddy...... Let's save Sister Yuezi......"

"Qiqi?" I turned my head, but saw Xue Qi, who was sleeping on the bed, had opened her eyes at some point, and was looking at me with her hand on her forehead, her breathing was a little short, and her cheeks were a little unhealthy flush because of fever.

Xueqi's eyes were full of tears, she coughed weakly twice, looked at me with almost pleading eyes, and said:

"Daddy...... I beg you...... Let's go save Sister Yuezi...... She's become like that...... It's pathetic...... Please...... Leave me alone......"

Looking at Xue Qi's cheeks full of tears, my heart hurt as if it had been pierced by ten thousand arrows. I was starting to lose control of my emotions, and at that moment, I made up my mind.

I bit my lip with difficulty, looked at Xue Qi, and said:

"Qiqi, the more you say that, the less I will save the confinement! …… Qiqi, Dad, I ...... I can't live without you anymore, you know? ”

Hearing my words, Xueqi's ears also turned red, she coughed violently, she looked at me tiredly with tears in her eyes, and said in disbelief:

"Why, Daddy...... Why? Didn't you say, we're family? Why should we abandon our families now? Sister Yuezi is our family! ”

Xue Qi's words made me a little breathless, and my cheeks were also hot, so I couldn't help but raise my voice and said:

"Dad wants to save it too! But...... Dad, I'm not sure! What if I go for nothing? What if this is a trap?! ”

"Then it's a big deal to die together!" Xue Qi's voice suddenly became sharp, startling me.

I stared blankly at Xue Qi, as if I had just heard an incredible story.

With tears in her eyes, Xue Qi looked at me stubbornly and said:

"It's a big deal, let's die together...... Dad, I'm not afraid of death...... I'm not afraid of death at all...... But I hate it now...... Leave your family behind and hide away from yourself......"

Xue Qi's words slapped me on the cheek like a poisonous whip, making my face uncomfortably hot. I felt my heart pounding. I've been a dad for more than a decade, but there's never been a moment when I feel as useless as I am now.

Xue Qi said with a crying voice:

"Daddy...... I'm really not afraid of death...... I remember when I was 12 years old, I was found out in the hospital and had a terminal illness, and at that time, the doctor said that I would not live for more than a year. At that time, I knew I was going to die, and I cried all night, and Dad, you also hugged me, and cried all night...... That night, I said to my dad that I wanted to go out and see the outside world, and I didn't want to lie in a hospital bed and die like a dead man...... As a result, the next day, Dad pulled out my saline tube and walked out of the hospital with me in his arms...... And then in that year, you took me all over China...... You took me to Xinjiang, to Hainan, to Yunnan, to Harbin...... At that time, every day, I thought, maybe tomorrow I will never see you again...... However, if I can die by your father's side, I will definitely not regret it, and I will not be afraid...... What I'm afraid of is that Dad, you left me alone and left ......"

Speaking of which, Xue Qi couldn't go on, her cry suddenly became louder, and then she began to cover her mouth and cough violently.

Xueqi coughed more and more, and my heart began to panic.

At some point, Xue Qi suddenly clutched her throat and trembled violently.

I was so frightened that I rushed up to pat her on the back.

Xue Qi coughed uncomfortably, and when she looked up again, I was shocked.

On the back of Xue Qi's hand, there was a thick pool of blood.

At that moment, I was stunned.

I suddenly understood.

Xue Qi is not a fever at all.

Her body has long been dead.

The rush of these days, the pain of these days, little by little, has accumulated in Xue Qi's body, and her small and weak body has long been unable to bear it.

Finally, at this moment, it completely broke out.

Xueqi's remaining days are long gone.

She is well aware of this.

But...... She never told me.

God has said that He will help me win God's game.

But no one thought about it.

It turned out to be a doomed game.

Destiny is such a trick on people.

I hurriedly grabbed a glass of warm water from the table for Xue Qi to drink, but Xue Qi only took a small sip of water, but coughed even more, large patches of blood splattered out of her mouth, and the snow-white sheets were quickly wet.

Bright blood slowly flowed down the silk quilt, like a poisonous snake.

It's so shocking.

Xue Qi had already realized something, she stared blankly at the blood on the back of her hand, and then raised her head and looked at me with tears in her eyes, but the corners of her mouth showed an unnatural bitter smile.

"Daddy, am I going to die...... God gave me four more years...... Now, he looks like he's going to take it back......"

I quietly held Xueqi's hand and looked at her blankly, but it was like something was stuck in my throat, and I couldn't say a word.

But the tears couldn't stop flowing.

It's as if all the tears in my life have turned into a flying moment in this moment.

"Qiqi...... You're going to be fine......" I said in a trembling voice.

But this, let alone Xueqi, even I don't believe it.

At this moment, all of a sudden, I was disillusioned.

All the built futures collapsed and collapsed, and thousands of buildings disappeared in an instant.

There's no way around it.

There's really no way around it.

I know it deeply.

I can't keep Xue Qi anymore.

Xue Qi is really leaving me.

Every minute, every second, her life passed slowly like sand between her fingers.

Xue Qi gently grabbed my hand and looked at me with an almost begging look.

Say to me softly.

"Daddy...... In the past, when I was sick, I begged you to say that I was going to see the outside world, but now I ...... I want to go home...... Dad, can you take me home with my confinement sister? I miss home......"

My memories began to flow back.

My mind began to regress.

It was as if everything had gone back four years.

Back to the day when Xueqi was terminally ill.

……

That day, Xue Qi was also lying weakly on the hospital bed as she is now, looking at me with her dark eyes.

“papa…… You said you were going to take me outside...... "At that time, Xue Qi, who had been lying in bed for an unknown number of days and had been dealing with salt water, suddenly begged me with a hint ......of crying.

And I just looked at twelve-year-old Xueqi.

At that moment, I looked at Xue Qi's innocent eyes and looked at her earnest expression, and for a moment, I felt that my whole person was boiling, and an indescribable huge force began to surge in my blood. It was a force from the depths of the soul, more powerful than all the forces in this world.

That force broke through the defenses within me, cut off all my sanity, destroyed the last shackles that bound my reason, and made me do crazy things.

At that time, I knew that that was Xueqi's last wish.

She didn't have much time left. Even if they are treated, they can only last for a few more months.

Rather than watching her get weaker in her hospital bed, I'd rather make her happy every day for the rest of the day.

So I couldn't refuse her last plea for me.

"Okay, Papa will take you!!"

At that time, I stood up from my seat, held back tears, and looked at Xueqi.

"Papa, I'll take you to Xinjiang to play! Let's go! ”

That day, at that moment, I cried and shouted, picked Xueqi up from the bed, and then walked to the door of the ward step by step with her relieved smile.

When they saw my crazy behavior, the nurses and doctors ran up in a panic and tried to stop me, saying that Xueqi was still being treated and couldn't go out, but I was pushed away, and I didn't look at them, so I walked out of the hospital with Xueqi in my arms.

Never look back.

As I walked towards the hospital door, Xueqi began to lean into my arms and smile.

And I started to cry.

I walked faster and faster, and the shouts of doctors and nurses came from behind me, but I didn't hear them.

Finally, I walked out of the hospital gates.

The golden sun shone on my body, Xueqi's face.

A warm feeling permeated me and her body.

Sober air, busy streets, golden sunshine.

Holding Xue Qi horizontally, looking at the flow of people coming and going in front of me, I made a crazy decision that day.

I'm going to take Xueqi with me.

I'm going to take her away from the city where she's lived for ten years.

Take her to places she's never been before.

Take her to the farthest and most beautiful places.

I'm going to take her to see the snowy mountains, take her to see the grasslands, take her to see the forests, take her to see the sea.

Take her to see the outside world.

That was the promise I made to Xueqi, an iron oath that I could never break in my life.

At that time, I made up my mind.

In Xueqi's few remaining days, I want her to spend every day in happiness, smile happily every day, and never cry again.

So, in the rest of Xueqi's life,

I'm going to make a simple but grand plan

That is, with her,

Travel all over China!

……

……

Four years later.

On this day, at this moment, also by the bedside, Xue Qi looked at me weakly, looking at me with her dark eyes, begging me.

However, she said the exact opposite.

Four years ago, she wanted to see the outside world.

Four years later, she just wanted to go home with me.

What did the four years bring and what did they take away?

And what is left?

What will always stay in my heart?

"Daddy...... I want to go home...... Let's go home together, shall we? Xue Qi looked at me and called out again.

The begging sounded with a thick cry.

At that moment, I looked at Xue Qi's innocent eyes, looked at her earnest expression, four years overlapped at this moment, and in an instant, I felt that my whole person was boiling, and a huge force that I didn't know where it came from began to surge in my blood.

The power of four years ago resurfaces in this moment.

That force broke through the defenses within me, cut off all my sanity, destroyed the last shackles that bound my reason, and made me do crazy things.

At that time, I knew that that was Xueqi's last wish.

She didn't have much time left. Even if they are treated, they can only last for a few more months.

Rather than watching her get weaker in her hospital bed, I'd rather make her happy every day for the rest of the day.

So I couldn't refuse her last plea for me.

"Okay, let's ...... Go home!! ”

At that time, I stood up from my seat and looked at Xueqi with tears in my eyes.

"Daddy, I'm going to take you home! Let's go! Let's go together! Let's go home! No one is missing! ”

Holding back tears, I picked up Xueqi from the bed, and then slowly walked to the door of the room with her relieved smile.

Never look back.

Four years have flown by.

However......

All...... Like yesterday.

Four years......

Looking back, it looks like a lot of things have happened.

But think about it.

Nothing seems to have changed.

Everything is exactly the same as it was at the beginning.

Ten minutes later, we came to a small town near the Hubei region.

And before that, we found a mobile phone. In fact, it is not difficult to find mobile phones, in this time when everyone is in danger, there are dead bodies that have been blown up or turned into zombies on the streets of many places, and we can easily find some mobile phones from these dead bodies.

This is what Yuhui suggested to me. Yu Hui said that she had participated in the hacker alliance in the past, and was a member of the very famous hacker alliance in the world, and at that time, she knew many other members of the hacker alliance, and Yu Hui also knew the location of many hackers' private spare computers and DDoS attack tools, so we used the aperture to find the location of one of the hackers' working machines, and after confirming that it had not been bombed by nuclear bombs, we started to act.

Because in the current situation, even hackers have fled, so we easily hacked into the hacker's storage room, and in the hacker's basement, we found a dusty computer.

After getting the computer, Yu Hui said to me expressionlessly:

"You guys, get out of here first. After finding the IP of the confinement child, I will send the address to your mobile phone. Then, you go over. ”

I looked at Yuhui with a frown and said:

"Why get out of here?"

Yu Hui Says:

"When I search for an IP, I may be reverse-locked. If Zhu Qingyun had locked on to my address, he might have dropped a nuclear bomb at my place. If you're there, you'll be blown up together. ”

Hearing Yuhui's words, my heart sank.

At that moment, looking at the deep loneliness on Yuhui's face, I knew that at this moment, she really made a huge determination.

In the dimly lit room, Yuhui looked at me quietly, under her fluent short hair, her eyes were so clear, and there was still no expression fluctuation on her face, but in her eyes, I saw a thousand words.

Sometimes, the mouth is not the most expressive window to the human heart, the eyes are.

"Yuhui, tell me honestly, you don't let Zhu Qingyun find out your certainty...... How big is it? I was silent for a while, then asked bitterly.

Yuhui was silent, looking at me without blinking.

Finally, she said softly:

"It's huge."

It's huge.

This is the answer that Yuhui gave me.

She didn't tell me how sure she was, and I didn't know she was comforting me.

Or rather, even she doesn't know.

After a pause, Yuhui took out a small black object from her waist bag, handed it to me, and said:

"Here's this."

I took the black object that Yuhui handed me, looked at it, and found that it was a small portable hard drive.

"This portable hard drive...... Is it any use? ”

Yuhui lowered her head slightly, didn't look me in the eyes, and said a little overwhelmed:

"It's ...... My secret. You take good care of it for me. If...... I'm dead, you...... You can take a look. I...... You are only allowed to see it once. ”

Yu Hui's words suddenly became slurred, I don't know what she was hiding in the hard drive, but I saw that Yu Hui was a little unspeakable now, and I still guessed something more or less.

"How many times have I told you, Yuhui, don't say such things casually." I took a deep breath, patted Yuhui on the shoulder, and said, "We'll all be fine, okay?" I'll keep it for you, wait for you to come back, and then I'll give it back to you. ”

Yuhui just looked at me fixedly, her lips moved for a moment, and then, she just nodded her head lightly and hummed softly.

After that, she didn't say anything more.

Under Yuhui's calm gaze, I left the warehouse with Xueqi, who had fallen asleep, and left the land with James.

At the last moment when I exited the warehouse door, I turned back by chance, only to see the figure of Yuhui gradually engulfed by the black shadow of the warehouse.

In the dark, she looked so slender, so lonely, she stood there like a snow-white sculpture, her eyes not covered by shadows, but still looking at me steadily.

I smiled at her, gave her a look of encouragement, and then, with James, teleported to another safe place on Earth.

In a safe place, James and I sat across from each other, staring at the screen of our phones and discussing what to do next.

"There's still more than an hour left. Next, if Yuhui successfully gets the coordinates where the confinement is, then I will go to see Zhu Qingyun's people as Blue Moon, and the meeting place is in the square where it is convenient to teleport, and I will use Blue Moon's identity to ask to see Yuezi and take her out of prison. James looked at me and said, "And you, Mr. Yang, took the opportunity to rescue her when she was escorted out of prison." Our Opportunity ...... Only once. If that fails...... It's not just confinement that can be dangerous...... We...... It can also be dangerous. ”

I glanced at Xueqi lying on the bed, then at James, and finally nodded heavily, and said:

"I know. Let's let Xueqi lie here first. Let's get out of here first. ”

So, after temporarily reoccupying Xueqi from a comatose pass, James and I once again went to another relatively safe place, where we anxiously waited for Yuhui's message to inform us.

One minute...... Two minutes......

Time was flowing at an extremely slow pace, and on a few occasions, I even wanted to stop what I was doing now and go straight to Yuhui and tell her not to do it.

However, we have made up our minds that there is no turning back.

After about twenty minutes, all of a sudden, I received a text message on my phone.

My heart was shocked, and James took out another camera to take a picture of the text message as soon as I clicked on the text message, and then, after we left the phone in place, we fled the scene as fast as we could, until after two consecutive transmissions to a relatively safe area, James turned on the camera and checked the content of the photo he had just taken.

The content is very simple, just two simple sentences, one of which is the coordinates, and the other is: "He found me." ”

Seeing this, my heart sank into the abyss with a thud.

Tears flowed down my eyes, and I felt my feet go limp, and I almost fell to the ground.

James was in tears, too, and he stood by like a wooden man.

I looked at the picture stupidly, and it took five seconds for me to come back to my senses.

I looked up at James again, trying to say something, but I opened my mouth several times, but I couldn't say anything, as if I was dumb.

"No......" Finally, I squeezed this sentence out of my throat, but I felt that my throat was not my own. Yuhui is such a careful person, how could something happen to her......"

My hand holding the picture began to tremble violently.

However, I waited in place for five seconds, and I didn't wait for Yuhui to arrive.

According to our prior agreement, Yuhui will be in front of us within five minutes after sending us the coordinates, and no matter what happens, she will not be late.

But now...... Five minutes, but it's already passed.

Yuhui never came.

At this point, I'm finally completely sure.

Yuhui, something really happened.

A stream of heat rushed to my brain, and at that moment, I opened the aperture without hesitation, but it teleported to an area a few kilometers away from Yuhui's location.

When I stood at the edge of Yuhui's area and looked in the direction of Yuhui's location, I was stunned.

I don't know when, Yuhui's town has completely disappeared.

Where the town disappeared, only a circular pit remained.

All the houses and high-rise buildings were bulldozed and melted down by this sudden round pit, and the houses in some places were so strange that they were only half melted.

It's as neat as the cake we cut for Xueqi at her birthday dinner.

I know that the energy of the nuclear bomb was not able to dissipate outside the aperture when it exploded in the aperture. I've seen this too many times in the past few days.

The black craters were like the eyes of the Grim Reaper, and they lay there silently.

And in the middle of the pothole, everything has disappeared.

Yuhui? Warehouse? Computer? Small building?

Everything was moved to the ground in an instant.

Goodbye.
