In the early hours of the morning, Lin was suddenly awakened by a chill coming from his neck.

Lin opened his eyes and found An An sitting on his hospital bed. At this time, An An held Lin's injured shoulder with one hand, and with the other hand, holding a fruit knife, it was on Lin's neck.

Lin's heart was suddenly shocked, he couldn't help but turn his head to look to the side, An An directly mocked with a smile: "Don't look at it! Levi and Ai Fan have something to do, and now there are only two of us left here." The expression on An An's face was quite serious, and his eyes were extremely sharp, which was completely different from the feeling he usually gave people.

Lin subconsciously struggled, but An An covered his mouth, pressed Lin on the bed, and said, "Don't struggle." Now there are no magic weapons in this room, do you think you are my opponent if you fight alone, not to mention, your hand is still injured, you are just a cripple!"

Lin felt that he had some difficulty breathing, and immediately gave up struggling.

However, after Lin gave up resistance, An An also suddenly let go. He put the knife in his hand back into the fruit and sat back on his bed. An An's behavior this time was obviously just to scare and scare Lin.

Next, An An looked at Lin who was panting heavily, and asked with some hesitation: "Why didn't you tell the truth?"

After some tossing just now, Lin coughed a little again. He finally sat up, calmed down, and asked in disbelief, "So you've been awake a long time ago?"

"Yes, it was because I heard your answer that I didn't ask for your life. Tell me, how the hell did you find out?" An An showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, and a sly look appeared in his eyes. It seems that this is An An's true character, a smart and sharp ruthless character.

Lin looked at An An with a somewhat complicated mood. It seemed difficult for him to connect the person in front of him with the one he was familiar with, the innocent and innocent An An. In particular, An An's current tone of speech gives people a very strong feeling, which is completely different from the usual soft tone, which makes people feel unaccustomed to it, just like schizophrenia.

Thinking of this, Lin couldn't help but feel that his head hurt a little again. He rubbed his head and said with a wry smile: "I don't know very well, it's just an intuition, right? When I was at the bottom of the pit, I looked at you, and I always felt as if I had seen the same scene, and I had similar memories in my mind." And in that memory, you didn't act like a fool could do it, so I blurted out that question. And now, I already regret the indiscretion of the time. ”

The corners of An An's mouth raised slightly, and at the same time, he showed a noncommittal smile at Lin's answer.

At this time, the moonlight shone in from the window and sprinkled on An An's face, making the blue color in his eyes particularly bright, and there was a faint feeling of gentleness. The atmosphere in this ward has eased down a little.

As the surrounding atmosphere eased, Lin felt that his heartbeat was not as fast as before. He suddenly realized that between himself and the real An An, he was actually able to talk well.

So then, in the gentle moonlight, Lin also asked a question: "What about you? Why are you pretending to be stupid? Levi and the others should not know about this matter......

"Quite simply, everyone in the court wants me to die. I don't know what else I can do to keep myself alive but to play dumb, so I have to do it. ”

An An looked at the scenery outside the window and said lightly, as if he was just talking about things that had nothing to do with him. But the fluctuations in his eyes clearly revealed that he recalled the past.

And this inadvertent emotional outpouring also made the atmosphere between the two a little milder, and the two were chatting casually like old friends.

For An An, it seems that he has not spoken to anyone normally for many years. Therefore, this kind of conversation, which is obviously normal, has become a new experience for him.

"What about you? Why are you pretending to be yourself? Such a large circle requires extremely strong mana. Even if multiple professional mages join forces, I'm afraid they won't be able to do what you do, right?, it can be seen how amazing your true talent is, I'm afraid to describe it as one in a million, it also underestimates your ability, right?" An An said.

Lin's eyes instantly darkened. He said slowly: "I have been a burden that no one wants since I was a child, whether it is in the Land of Streams or in Twin Moon City, I will only be disgusted. Along the way, I gradually got used to it. ”

An An didn't believe Lin's statement, but pointed out sharply: "I don't think this is true, right? Is it because of Gao Ze? Everyone knows that Gao Ze regards that Valentine as the only hope to save the country, and he has reached the point of going crazy." But Valentine's performance was really disappointing. Now his identity as a prophet is supporting the belief in Gao Ze's heart. Are you worried that your performance will overpower Valentine, causing Gao Ze's confidence in Valentine to shake and collapse, so you have been showing incompetence, right?"

"I've been in poor health since I was a child, and I've never been of much use. And Valentine is a prophet no matter what he says...... I just don't want to disappoint Gao Ze. ”

An An couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Don't want to disappoint Gao Ze? Then he can really only despair in the end! You better think clearly, is that Valentin really worth your hope? Since Valentin lost the last game, there have been a lot of rumors about him in the academy. said that he was a false prophet with no ability, cheating his reputation and cheating money. ”

"Don't talk nonsense......"

"I'm not talking nonsense. But you, after so many years of getting along with him, really never doubted his authenticity?"

An An sighed and continued: "Actually, I overheard the conversation between Roland and Rand that day. Referring to Valentine, Roland said that Valentine and Rand's mother, Catherine, the famous prophet, were not of the same kind. Although the direction of this sentence is not clear, I always feel that Roland should know something?"

"Why did you tell me this all of a sudden?" Lin glanced at An An, his expression revealing a little uncertainty and irritability.

"I don't know. An An shook her head. From the bottom of his heart, he felt unworthy for Lin, and at the same time, he felt that Lin was very similar to himself in some ways.

So An An asked again: "Then what are your plans next?"

"I ...... I don't know. Lin lowered his head and replied in a low voice.

Lin actually knew his current situation very well, but he didn't have the courage to change all this. He didn't like his current life, and he didn't want to go back to the country of streams. But...... There is no place for him in this world. So he didn't know what else he could do other than keep the status quo.

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Gao Ze is not a suitable monarch. What's more, he doesn't appreciate you yet. Staying by his side will only make you miserable, and you obviously have talent, why don't you want to use your talent to do something for yourself? This world is so big, it's not just the country of the stream that is your destination!"

Listening to An An's sonorous words, Lin was a little stunned. But then he shook his head with a wry smile: "No matter what, it is my motherland, and I can't do anything to turn my back on the country of the stream...... What about you? Are you going to pretend to be stupid for the rest of your life?"

An An glanced at Lin and said lightly: "Of course not." But before Levi ascends to the throne, I will have to maintain the status quo for a while. I can't let him get distracted by my business. He's done enough for me. ”

Lin also smiled, he didn't fail to understand An An's thoughts and practices, so he said: "What happened between us should never have happened." After getting out of this hospital, we were still just ordinary classmates. ”

"Of course. ”
