Chapter 7 Concealment
"Xiaoyu!"
This time it was the girl who was exactly the same as in his memory, the one who had been searching for him for two years.
"It's all said, I'm not the Xiaoyu you said. ”
The girl, who was still looking around for something, seemed to show a little joy when she saw Tong Xiaofeng and walked in his direction.
"Looks like you're all right. ”
Hearing this, Tong Xiaofeng realized something, and remembered the black beach where it was raining lightly.
"Isn't that a dream?"
"Dreams, if you're referring to last night's events, it's certainly not a dream. You said you were going to be my assistant. Do you want to deny it?"
This was so sudden that Tong Xiaofeng didn't know how to face it. There are so many questions you want to ask, but you don't know which one to ask first.
"Then why did I sleep in my room, and where did you go?"
"Anyway, I'm a god too, is it hard to know where your house is? As for where I'm going, you don't need to care, and there are some things that you better not know. Compared to this, I carried you on my back for a few kilometers last night, and I almost didn't tire me to death, I hope you can come in handy in the future. ”
Compared with Tong Xiaofeng's surprised expression, Lin Yali next to him was unexpectedly calm. showed the usual smile, without a slight change. I don't know if it's for Tong Xiaofeng, or for this girl who looks like Tong Xiaoyu.
"Now shouldn't be the time for small talk, I see that you are in such a hurry, isn't there something important?"
Lin Yali's words made the girl suddenly realize that she should have something more important, but for some reason she left it all behind after seeing Tong Xiaofeng, and now she is really a little annoyed when she looks back.
"I'll go back to your house to find you. After saying this, the girl turned around and threw a gorgeous back to the two of them.
"Wait. ”
Tong Xiaofeng didn't want to let her go like this, but as soon as he took a step, his hands had already pulled him back.
Watching the girl go farther and farther, Tong Xiaofeng turned his head a little helplessly, and the owner of the hands was looking at him, with the usual smile on his face, as if all this was not done by her.
"Yali, why are you pulling me. You're a little weird today, what's wrong?"
"Let's go home first. With that, Lin Yali pulled Tong Xiaofeng away.
This series of abnormal phenomena made Tong Xiaofeng puzzled, Lin Yali was still the same Lin Yali, only the slowly clenched hand and the gradually faster pace were changed.
"What the hell is going on, do you know anything? Is it about Xiaoyu?"
Facing Tong Xiaofeng's questioning again, Lin Yali stopped her steps, easily opened Tong Xiaofeng's hand, and when she turned around, her smile had already converged, and her face was unprecedentedly serious, which was an expression that had never appeared on her.
"It's her decision, it's your sister's decision. You shouldn't be so persistent, and you shouldn't have anything to do with her, she's no longer your sister. ”
It's inexplicable again, although Tong Xiaofeng didn't understand it, but it has already shown a lot of things. So he didn't speak anymore, just looked at Lin Yali with a wistful expression.
In the past two years, Lin Yali has not refused any of his requests, but this time she just continued to hold Tong Xiaofeng's hand and silently walked towards the way home.
The atmosphere of the National Day Golden Week is fully filled with the streets, and the sound of fireworks in the distant sky talks about the joy of the festival. Only these two exude a gloomy aura, as if they want to isolate the whole world.
Tong Xiaofeng was like a child who had done something wrong and didn't dare to say anything more, just being led away silently. It was the first time he had seen Lin Yali like this. Clearly, she knew a lot of things he didn't know. And it's all about the missing girl.
The journey home was much longer than usual, and the word torment had already explained his situation. Lin Yali's hands held him tightly, and the huge strength made him unable to break free.
"Yali, my hand hurts a little. ”
Finally, the power from his hand decreased a little, but Lin Yali still didn't look at him, just walked vigorously in the direction of going home.
After a period of "torture", the two finally returned to this small western-style building.
As soon as she got home, before Tong Xiaofeng could ask the question in her heart, Lin Yali went upstairs down the stairs. Tong Xiaofeng, who was just about to follow, heard Lin Yali's voice from upstairs.
"Wait there. ”
The tone of reprimand made him retreat down the stairs, and it was the sofa in the living room that accepted him in distress.
For the first time, Tong Xiaofeng found that waiting turned out to be such an uncomfortable thing, and time seemed to stand still.
Fortunately, time could not really stop, and at the same time as he continued to be distressed, there was a sound of the door opening from upstairs. The voice was a little low, and it made his heart even more uneasy.
As the steps on the stairs got closer and closer, he saw his mother's worried face and Lin Yali who was expressionless behind her.
"Xiaofeng, don't go to her again, she's not your sister anymore. ”
Hearing this, Tong Xiaofeng didn't know what he felt in his heart, it was a little sour, mixed with a faint bitterness, although it was not strong, but it was the most painful feeling in the world.
He didn't know what the two people who had supported him for two years were hiding from him, and he wanted to turn the pent-up emotions of the two years into a roar now, telling the two people in front of him how much he wanted to find his sister, and telling them how terrible it was to lose a piece of his heart.
It's a pity that he can't do it, it's not that he's cowardly, it's just that the worry on Tong Li's face and the seriousness on Lin Yali's face have fully shown that they are not wrong.
It's just that he doesn't know the facts, who should he vent his anger on? Could it be the girl who disappeared for two years? No, I'm afraid it's just him.
Smiling as if self-deprecating, Tong Xiaofeng no longer wanted to pray for the truth, and from their words, he had already deduced that the girl was Tong Xiaoyu.
"If one day, you go to a far place and never come back, do you want me to come looking for you or forget you? ”
Facing Tong Xiaofeng's questioning, both of them showed painful expressions. Obviously, they are also extremely struggling inside. Tong Xiaofeng took advantage of this gap and ran to the door, believing that with his athletic ability, he could easily break through their blockade. In fact, the two of them did not stop him, and let him rush over.
It's just that when Tong Xiaofeng thought that everything was going smoothly, an accident happened. His brain felt like it had been violently pounding, and he struggled to keep his balance, and he turned around with the last of his consciousness to see what was attacking him. It's a pity that all that flashed in the air was a gradually dissipating beam of light and Tong Li's painful face in the distance.
Looking at Tong Xiaofeng, who closed his eyes and slowly fell, Tong Li and Lin Yali both felt a sense of guilt, even if they thought that they had done nothing wrong, Tong Xiaofeng was not wrong.
After sighing lightly, Tong Li walked towards Tong Xiaofeng, who fell into a coma, looking at his face with pain and anxiety, Tong Li could only use her hands to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Yali, you really can't erase this child's memory, let him sink like this, I'm afraid he will be drawn into that war sooner or later. ”
Facing Tong Li's question, Lin Yali could only show a wry smile.
"If I could, I would have done it two years ago. He was able to instinctively resist my divine power even when he was unconscious, and even two years ago it took a huge price to tamper with that little memory. He's so special, and as his compatriot, I can't guess which god he is. ”
"What should I do, I've lost a child and I can't afford to lose him anymore. ”
"Don't worry, it's not just your desire to make him human. ”
Lin Yali seemed to have made some decision, and resolutely walked out of this small western-style building.
Seeing that after Lin Yali left, Tong Li's last line of defense was also destroyed, and she picked up Tong Xiaofeng, who was still in a coma, and cried.
No matter whether the voice will reach the outside or not, no matter what outsiders will think when they hear it, she cried like this. Concealment may not be a technical job, but it is more tiring than a technical job. Because when it is exposed, it hurts more than one person's heart.
