Chapter Seventy-Three: Suddenly, the hearts of the old people have fallen in their hearts, and it is autumn to look back at the mountains and rivers

(BGM - "At The Place Where You Call" electric guitar version, the version of Xiaobo or Liu Linfeng recommended by Netizen Cloud)

Cheng Mo never thought that Xie Minyun would smile so brightly, and that iceberg-like girl would smile even brighter than the summer sun.

The smile shone into his pupils, so bright that he could barely open his eyes, and the burning sensation even stimulated him to resist with tears. The blinding light even pierced his skin, like warm alcohol dissolving in his blood, boiling in his veins, sweeping through the main stream and the periphery, striking his brain and soul.

Cheng Mo did not feel the severe pain, he only felt that he was not standing in a refugee camp on the outskirts of Damascus at this moment, but standing in the cold and endless Lethe River, allowing the muddy water to wash over his body, carving sickness and wrinkles.

The world has no mercy on him, and the darkness of the long night is endless.

However, when he inadvertently looked up, he found an inextinguishable light shining above his head. In fact, Xie Minyun has always been there, illuminating every moment of his loneliness.

But as her husband, what did he give her?

Not only did she not protect her, but she was always guarded by her secret and distant tenderness, even though she was far away from the hustle and bustle, she still projected her love on him in an incredible way, blessed him, and warmed him.

Cheng Mo suddenly felt that those sweet memories mixed with the long river of time were like sharp blades, they passed through his body, and half of the meaning of his life was forcibly stripped away.

A few tears blurred his vision, and he looked at Xie Minyun in a misty halo, as if he was across a galaxy.

A strong sense of loneliness and frustration welled up from the hollowness of his heart, and his thoughts could only drift away, as if he had returned to the time of sinking into the long and boring self-isolation of day after day.

When he was in elementary school, female classmates were watching "Full House of Romance", "Mischievous Kiss", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", and the stationery store was full of posters of idol stars, and female students flocked to it.

At that time, he fully realized that there was such a thing as "love", which must only be related to handsome guys and beautiful women, and bean sprouts like him, who were frail and sick and had no special strengths, could not have a half-dime relationship.

It may be because Cheng Mo constantly hypnotizes himself, or it may be because of the pressure of heart disease that makes him a maverick weirdo. It's just that young Mu Ai is an irresistible human instinct, no matter how firm Cheng Mo is, as he grows older, he will inevitably have vague expectations for the opposite sex.

However, unlike other teenagers, he consciously understands that his cognition of love is closer to the essence, so he has always maintained a judgmental attitude towards those plots that love earth-shatteringly dead and alive, in his opinion, judging a person's IQ is not online, depending on what drama she likes, if it is a girl who likes Cinderella variant dramas such as "Meteor Garden", "Little Times" or "The Heirs", there is a chance that nine times out of ten... and his three views do not agree.

And those TV series that are too realistic, such as "Snail House", "Naked Marriage Era", etc., he also doesn't like it, especially those dramas that entangle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and he hates it even more.

As for the classic classics "Dream of Red Mansions", "Gone with the Wind", "Anna Karenina", and "The Great Gatsby", etc., he can read them, but he has always believed that love in turbulent times does not have much reference value, and the focus of these books is not in love itself. It is the relationship between people and the world in the torrent of the times, and the fate of individuals who cannot be controlled.

Speaking of which, his favorite love story is a comic. And this comic is neither a flirtatious bible with a sci-fi temperament - "The Young Pig-headed Boy Doesn't Dream of the Bunny Girl Senior Sister", nor is it a counter-routine mastery full of illness in the second year of high school - "My Youth Love Story is Really Problematic", and it is not regarded as a guideline by literary and artistic youth-"The Flower of Evil".

It's an ancient anime from the Showa period - "A Moment of Togetherness".

This comic tells an ordinary love story, the content of the story is really too bland, there is no life and death, no car accident amnesia, and even no real sadomasochistic love triangle, from beginning to end, the love trajectory of the male and female protagonists is very clear, although there are some entanglements and hesitations in the middle, but those hesitations and entanglements are not deliberate at all, they are all very realistic problems. Overall, this is a manga that tells the story of the heartwarming feelings between ordinary people.

The hero of the story is a simple and not so wealthy repeater Goyo, while the heroine is a young and intelligent beautiful surviving person with no voice.

In the Showa era when the theme of the end of the world and saving the earth prevailed, the male protagonists were all Ultraman ("Ultraman"), Astro Boy ("Astro Boy"), Monkey King ("Dragon Ball"), Seiya ("Saint Seiya") Such an indecisive central air conditioner is still a rare character, although now everyone is tired of seeing such a Japanese-style male protagonist, but in that era, the character design of the five generations is still groundbreaking.

Cheng Mo didn't have much affection for the five generations from beginning to end, he only liked Yin Wu Xiangzi, and he had no resistance to a gentle and kind light mature woman like Xiangzi who was a little willful.

In his heart, the sound of no sound is too beautiful.

Resting now,It's impossible to become a heroine with such an identity as a survivor.,Don't say that the sound is far from the popular templated heroine.,In addition to the general advantage of being beautiful.,It can be said that it's full of slots.。 doesn't have any strong abilities, doesn't have the identity background of a rich country, and doesn't have a deep love for the male protagonist, and is even a widow who has been married once.

There are no earth-shattering events and incredible reversals in the plot that attracts Cheng Mo, all of them are trivial frictions that often occur in life, and there are some jealousy caused by personality factors, and all feelings are piled up in some minutiae of life.

For example, Otomoko watched Goyo leave home in the morning and patiently waited for him to come back at night. In addition to a tie, the only gift for Goyo is a bento that is carefully prepared every day.....

In fact, Hibiki's gentle protection is everywhere, in the station in the heavy rain, in the drunken night, in every smiling morning, in every dusk waiting for your return.

For a teenager like Cheng Mo, there is probably no more realistic gentleness than this.

And an angel like Xie Minyun who pulled out his sword to protect him was the fantasy of the little boys, and it was too far away from the truth.

Although Cheng Mo was only in junior high school when he watched "A Moment of Gathering", he had an old heart, he had no interest in little girls, and he would naturally have a better impression of mature women, such as Teacher Shen, for example, Instructor Bai.

There is no doubt that a girl like Xie Minyun is not Cheng Mo's ideal type, so at first he didn't think that he would have anything to do with Xie Minyun until he experienced the ups and downs of the Europa journey.

That trip should have been unremarkable completely broke Cheng Mo's perception of the world, and also changed the relationship between him and Xie Minyun. Cheng Mo never imagined that he would become the hero of an adventure story, nor did he think that there would be any touching love stories with a boring person like him.

But the development of the plot is very similar to the bridge in the ninth-rate love, the ordinary and ordinary male protagonist has an unswerving relationship after suffering with the aristocratic lady, just like in "Titanic".

If it is said that it is according to the comedy process, the next step should be that they break the shackles of class together and walk together bravely, like the heroes and heroines in fairy tales getting married and having children.

If it were according to the tragic process, then Xie Minyun or he should be buried under the eternal frozen soil of Siberia, and many years later, he or she, with his or her children, revisited the old place and laid a bouquet of flowers in front of the tombstone on the shore of Lake Baikal.

There is an even more tragic thing, that is, they all went back alive, but they failed to survive the obstacles of time and reality, one married a wife, and the other married a new love. Or the tragedy is a little more bloody, he cheated on Mr. Shen as a phoenix man out of marriage, and staged a realistic version of "The Temptation to Go Home", presumably such a Baixue plot is also very popular.

However, the development of events is beyond Cheng Mo's imagination. When Ennoth returned to Star City, he always felt that it was more likely that the two of them would gradually disappear into each other's world, he had always been very rational, and he knew that the gap between Xie Minyun's family and his family was too big, and he was not the kind of person who was keen on dreaming and could persevere, he never broke the boat, and he had always been able to give up the sunk cost very decisively. Even though Xie Minyun hung the names of the two people on the trees in Yuelu Mountain, Cheng Mo was moved and moved, but he was still not optimistic about the future of himself and Xie Minyun.

To be honest, he felt at that time that if Shen Youyi was not his teacher, Shen Youyi would be the most suitable spouse for him, in fact, even Bai Xiuxiu was more in line with his preferences than Xie Minyun. In fact, after something that shouldn't have happened with Shen Youyi, he decided not to marry for the rest of his life, and he would not make a commitment to anyone's marriage, and he would not break his trust with anyone.

Reality is often even more bizarre, he didn't expect Xie Minyun to have the courage to marry him directly, Cheng Mo knew what it meant to him, as a rational and realistic chosen one, he knew very well that he shouldn't refuse, let alone refuse such a perfect ending of the story.

It's just that he didn't think that this was not the end, just the beginning.

He thought he was just a little man away from the turbulent times, but now he found out that he was one of the protagonists of the great era of torrents. He thought his story was a fairy tale of a princess and a poor boy that ninth-rate screenwriters disdained to write, but now he realizes that his experience is a common suffering process for all mankind that can only appear in a huge work.

If the world is peaceful, he and Xie Minyun should be graduating soon, and they can start living together in the name of justice, not to mention that he just wants to be a librarian, even if he really wants to build a library in space, it is not an unattainable dream.

Xie Minyun is a perfect girl, and she will definitely be a perfect wife, they have similar interests and personalities, and their lives will be sweet and colorful. He vividly remembered what Xie Minyun had said to him in the elevator, and they lived in a town full of auroras, where people were sparsely populated, with long winters and short summers. In the summer, he took his children to the forest to pick fresh wild fruits and mushrooms, while she drove to the town to buy some necessities, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. They planted vegetables and fruits in the yard, and when the sun went down, they made a fire together to cook, and the two children played in the yard......

It's all an ordinary beauty at your fingertips, and now it's all in the mirror.

He remembered the great and obscure book "One Hundred Years of Solitude", which Shen Youyi once gave a lecture on the Internet to talk about this metaphorical book. In Shen Youyi's narrative, the hopeless struggle and demise of the Buendia family from generation to generation is the true reflection of human society. Like the BuendΓ­a family, humanity is constantly repeating the same mistakes in its spiral, like the Ouroboros, a circle of destiny that symbolizes self-devouring.

MΓ‘rquez distills the commonalities of human history and blends them between the lines of One Hundred Years of Solitude.

The times and history are too large for the power of the individual to be worth mentioning.

Just like Colonel Buendia, no matter how good he was in battle and how much power he wielded, he could only indulge in the loneliness of making little goldfish in his later years, that Rebecca, who was strong against fate, closed herself in the house after losing her husband and ate dirt alone until she died, as the only person who had insight into the lonely fate of the Buendia family, Amaranta knitted her own shroud day after day, waiting for death to come, and the most simple and real Meimei, after experiencing a short love, spent the rest of her life in a distant and lonely monastery.

Except for the members of the Buendia family who died unexpectedly, they could not escape the companionship of loneliness in the end, and ended their lives in self-isolation, loneliness and isolation are the inescapable end of life. When you are too old to change and have no choice about the future, the only seemingly feasible way is to seek solace in the past, to anesthetize yourself in the midst of repetitive labor, in the same day.

Isn't this the case in human society?

"Hegemony has no eternity".

All contradictions and conflicts arise because of this, and the times are always developing, not only people will grow old, but also the country will grow old. Wealth cannot remain in the pocket of a person or a country forever, when there is a crack in the solid throne of interests, the hegemony will be shaken, some people will want to consolidate, some people will want to fight, and the cycle will go on and on, forever.

This sense of powerlessness is not only a fate that cannot be escaped by everyone, but also a fate that cannot be escaped by the entire human society.

Each of us is connected to the world, and there is no way to be immune to it, but there is no way to change it.

As the bookstore owner wrote: The past is fake, memories are a road of no return, and all the past springs cannot be restored.

Loneliness for more than a hundred years.

Loneliness is eternal.

"There really is no greater fable than this. Cheng Mo thought to himself, he closed his eyes, his mind was full of the melody sung by Xie Minyun, and her indifferent and warm voice rippled in his blank mind, like a nocturne played by a midnight wandering wave.

"A crying face will one day turn into a beautiful smile

Want to bring this moment to tears

Share it with all the people in the world

Do this gently

Constantly fighting each other and hurting each other

Man is such a fragile creature

But I still believe in the power of love

There must still be one."

In the song, Cheng Mo remembered the plot in the last episode of "A Moment of Reunion", and Yin Wuxiangzi, who was obsessed with missing her lover, finally came out of loneliness, and she said to Wudai in front of her ex-husband's grave: "It's great to be able to meet you~"

Cheng Mo heard the inner voice of Yin Wuxiangzi: love is the only way to overcome loneliness.

On October 6, 2020, a girl asked him, "I put on a citrus lip balm today, would you like to try it?" ”

They hug and kiss above the snow and under the aurora borealis, resisting loneliness with love.

She asked, "Is it sweet enough?"

He replied, "It's sweet enough, but it seems to be a lot worse." ”

She said: "I will pay you back for the rest of my life, and tomorrow we will go to get the marriage certificate." ”

He thought to himself at the time, how could a person promise something so long, and he didn't think of her seriousness, because he felt that there was no time limit for such a thing as love.

Of course he was wrong, and he couldn't have been more wrong.

She didn't break her promise, and it really took her whole life.

It's just that her life is too short.

It was so short that he didn't have time to arrange a confession and farewell ceremony, and he couldn't tell her a metaphor about love and happiness in person, or even become the end of his life and story with her.

Don't be too surprised, there are always unexpected goodbyes in the world, as well as sudden departures, the amount of tears is limited, it is better to cut the memory and treasure it, and respond to parting with a smile.

So Cheng Mo smiled.

He stared at Xie Minyun in the photo and thought, "How can I be in pain? I shouldn't shed tears, I am a cool boy in Xie Xiaojin's heart." ”

He seemed to hear her say to him, "No, it's not cool, you're the coolest one." ”

"Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie......"

Fayl waved his hand and shook it several times in front of Cheng Mo's eyes, before Cheng Mo came back to his senses from the whirlpool of memory, and he pretended to wipe his forehead with his elbow inadvertently, taking the opportunity to wipe away his tears. Then he turned his head and smiled at Fayle, his smile was now very natural, not as stiff as before, as if someone had pushed his cheeks, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to see such a beautiful photo of a Chinese girl here, so I was a little surprised." ”

In the dim light, Fayle didn't see the tears that flickered in the corners of Cheng Mo's eyes just now, his attention was instantly shifted to the photo by Cheng Mo, he looked at Xie Minyun's photo, and said proudly: "It's not just beautiful! Miss Xie is like an angel!"

Cheng Mo whispered, "Yes, she is an angel.....

"By the way, your pronunciation in Chinese is the same, is it a surname?"

Cheng Mo didn't expect to encounter such an incredible coincidence, he would lie about his surname "Xie" at the gate just now, fortunately, this is not a flaw, he nodded and said, "It is indeed a surname." ”

"Do you know her?" said Fayle, slightly agitated.

Cheng Mo shook his head heavily, "I don't know, there are many people with the surname Xie in our Huaxia, although this surname is not as common as Muhammad in the Middle East, but there are many of them." ”

Fayle looked regretful, "You just watched it so seriously, I thought you knew Miss Xie!"

Cheng Mo stared at the slightly yellowed photo and said, "I want to ..... Someone who can get to know her will be happy. "You're right, if it weren't for her, our family wouldn't know where to wander. ”

Fayer was full of emotion, but Cheng Mo thought: Without her, I am still wandering.

Of course, Fayer couldn't see what Cheng Mo was thinking, and seeing that he didn't speak, he turned his head to look in the direction of the room, "Wife, are you up?"

"Get up, get up. ”

A middle-aged woman dressed in the traditional costume of Syria lifted the curtain and walked out of the room, her face not covered with a scarf, but with a beautiful Amira's headscarf wrapped around her head, and cheap red lipstick on her lips, not like she was waking up in the early morning by some inexplicable guest, but she was preparing for a big festival.

Fayer waved his hand and said loudly, "Go and make something to eat for the two distinguished guests, and squeeze two cups of date juice." ”

Cheng Mo hurriedly said, "Don't be so troublesome. ”

Fayer shook his head and said, "No trouble, no trouble." He turned to his wife and said, "Go, I remember that I still have the pastries that Midani brought back from Damascus yesterday." ”

Fayle's wife smiled at Cheng Mo and said hello, then turned and walked into the gloomy kitchen.

Cheng Mo also smiled, in other countries, this may not seem to be enthusiastic enough, but if Syria is not a family and friend, the master's wife will not come out at all, Fayer asked his wife to meet a stranger who has only known him for ten minutes, and has already expressed enough enthusiasm.

All this is because of his Chinese identity, and more directly because of Xie Minyun. Cheng Mo had never felt the kindness of a stranger so warm.

Waiting for the lights in the kitchen to turn on, Fayer pointed to the old fabric sofa on the edge of the small living room and said, "Sit down for a while, date juice and breakfast will need to wait." ”

Cheng Mo beckoned Athena to sit on the sofa, and pretended to ask casually, "Why do you have a photo of a Chinese girl in your house?"

"It's not just our family, it's in our refugee camp, as long as the child has taken a photo with Miss Xie, they will put the photo on it. ”

"Why?"

"To be honest, I don't know why, but everyone just does. Maybe it's because we've never seen her so sincere, kind, and so beautiful. Fayer turned his head to look at the photograph and then at the child holding the handrail, "She is an angel sent by the Creator to walk on the earth....."

Cheng Mo remembered that Nuwa once asked him if he really knew Xie Minyun, and told him that Xie Minyun had donated money to build schools and refugee camps in Africa and the Middle East, and at that time he only felt that everything Xie Minyun did was for political service, even if Xie Minyun himself was sincerely doing charity and wanted to do his part for the world, but from a personal level, it didn't mean much, you must know that even if one country wants to change another country, it is not so easy. If Xie Minyun just wants to do this personally, it is tantamount to doing useless work, and she can't change anything.

As he expected, years later, these places are still in dire straits.

Cheng Mo asked, "Did she donate money to build this refugee camp?"

"It's not just a few refugee camps. Miss Xie also built our only school next to Douma. After a pause, Fayle's tone became ashamed, "When she first came, we had a lot of misconceptions about her, thinking that she was just like those Westerners who came to put on a show, just take a few pictures, and then donate the money to the bureaucrats and leave." But she was completely different from what we thought, not only did she donate money, but after three months she came back and saw that the foundation of the school had just been laid, and she went to the officials of Duma town and was furious, and the next day she began to personally supervise the progress of the project, and she also came over to organize us homeless refugees gathered on the edge of the town to help repair the house, and of course we ignored her until she said that she would pay her salary. At that time, the officials of Duma town advised her not to do this, which would only cause her trouble, but she did not believe it, and insisted on asking us refugees to work, and I was one of them......."

"Is it that after you go to work, you make trouble again and want to raise your salary?" Cheng Mo said.

Fayl laughed, "Dignity, morality, there is no such ...... in the refugee world."

"Understandable. ”

"At first, we just tried to slow down the construction period, but later we found that Miss Xie was really good at talking, so we nominated a representative to negotiate with Miss Xie and asked for lunch and dinner. Although the food supply was very tight at that time, Miss Xie agreed immediately and immediately brought us milk and bread. We didn't remember Miss Xie at all, but felt that she was a bully, so we intensified and asked for a salary increase. I was also one of the elected representatives......."

"I'm guessing she'll agree to give you a raise, but she'll give you a daily schedule that you have to complete. ”

"Haha!" Fayl laughed, "You Huaxia people still understand Huaxia people. That's what Miss Xie told us, and we agreed, but we would secretly come back at night after finishing the work every day and tear it back down at night. I don't know if Miss Xie knew everything we did at the beginning, or only found out later, anyway, one night, we were arrested by her, but she didn't blame us, but told us in a serious tone that this is a school built for our children, and in the future, it will not only allow our children to study for free, but also provide them with free food, she can't stay here for a long time, if the construction period can't be completed on time, she can only leave, and if the school is not repaired at that time, all the follow-up work is likely to have to stop。 I remember very well that she told us ......."

The two children standing on the sofa were the first to say, "Only knowledge can change fate." ”

Fayer raised his hand and touched the child's head, "Yes, she said that knowledge changes fate. That night she also called the old imam, who was bedridden and miraculously recovered, and the old imam said that if we did not want our children to live like us, only to live by the mercy of others, this school was the only chance. We discussed it for a long time, and even if we didn't believe Miss Xie, we still believed in the respected old imam. However, because we have been delayed for too long, we see that the construction period is approaching, and we are still a little far from the completion of the project......"

Seeing that Fayer stopped very deliberately, Cheng Mo hooked the corners of his mouth and made a smiling expression, "You don't need to hang your appetite, I know she will definitely be able to help you." ”

"It's a bit blunt. Fayle smiled, "Miss Xie personally works with us every day, we didn't expect a delicate lady to do rough work better than us, how to say that we are also men, of course we can't admit defeat." Probably with God's help, we finally repaired the school the day before the construction deadline arrived, but no one expected that Miss Xie's troubles had just begun......"

Fayer recounted in detail Xie Minyun's kindness, saying how she persuaded the refugees to send girls to school after the school was repaired, said that she started to build a refugee camp in order to solve the problem of refugees going to school to steal food, and said that in order for the refugees in the camp to have a livelihood, she not only helped plan a mutual aid organization, but also sent seeds and farm tools, and now the large wheat field in the east is the property of all their refugees.

Cheng Mo listened to it with relish, although what Fayl said was dry, Cheng Mo could feel Xie Minyun's relief and satisfaction from those simple words. Cheng Mo knows that Xie Minyun has never been a person who lives only for herself, and she has a great love in her heart that Cheng Mo can't understand.

It wasn't until Fayle's wife brought the wraps, pastries, and date juice that Fayle stopped talking, and Chong Chengmo and Athena made a gesture of invitation and said, "Eat something first." ”

Cheng Mo heard the sound of swallowing saliva, he turned his head to look at the two children who were salivating over the cake, and said, "You eat." ”

"They have. Fayer turned his head to look at the two children, "Go to the kitchen, go to Mommy's to eat." ”

The two children immediately turned and rushed into the kitchen, probably seeing something delicious, and they were screaming happily inside.

Fayer pushed the plate of pastries, burritos, yogurt, and a few small slices of bacon on the table in front of Cheng Mo and Athena, and said enthusiastically: "I'm so sorry, I only have these things at home, please don't dislike them." ”

Cheng Mo heard the thin sound of water in Fayer's voice, probably swallowing, having spent so much time in the refugee camps in Athens that he knew what such a breakfast meant to refugees, and almost took out the food prepared for the "Holy Feast" to share with him and Athena, two strangers.

Words are insignificant at this time, it can't express the hospitality of the Fayer family, which once made Cheng Mo wonder if Fayle had other plans, but what he saw in Fayle's eyes and expression was all sincerity, and his polite demeanor was full of sincerity.

It's the same in the base of queer people, these people of faith are just like that, if they treat you as an enemy, they must divide you to the death and never compromise, and if they treat you as a friend, they will immediately take out the best things and share them with you, and you can't take them if you don't take them. Populations with such a personality are indeed prone to extremes.

Cheng Mo pushed the plate back to the middle of the coffee table and said, "Let's eat together." So saying, he picked up a nut pastry and handed it to Athena, and took a burrito himself, which was covered in yogurt.

Seeing that Cheng Mo and Athena were eating with relish, Fayer immediately smiled with satisfaction, "Thank you really Miss Xie, I really thought that we Syria people had no hope before, but since she came, everything has been fine, as Miss Xie said, knowledge can change fate, and now children who have studied in school can find a good job in Damascus, especially Chinese ..... who study well."

Cheng Mo raised his glass and took a sip of date juice, and asked suspiciously: "There shouldn't be any Chinese tourists in Damascus, right?"

Fayer explained with a smile: "There are not many tourists, but there are a lot of businesses. Damascus's building materials and small commodities are all imported from your China, China is now our largest trading country in Syria, knowing Chinese is popular in Damascus, especially those who can speak and write, the salary is enough for them to live a decent life in Damascus, my brother works for a building materials company, their company specializes in importing various types of windows and glass from China. He said that as long as he contacts the company in Huaxia through the Internet, and then pays with digital currency, he can place an order, and Huaxia will deliver the goods to Hong Kong in less than a month, which is incredibly fast. Fayle said with longing, "My brother said that the main thing is that our oil has not been fully restored now, and when the war is completely over and the oil fields can be operational, I believe that you Chinese people will help us to build infrastructure, and the future described by Miss Xie will come at that time!"

Cheng Mo remembered the war that had just been set off again, and whispered, "It will definitely be." ”

"In short, no matter who we are in the camp, we are very grateful to Miss Xie and to the help from Huaxia. So there's nothing strange about putting her picture in the most prominent part of the room......"

"I am very proud that a Chinese person can bring so many changes to you. Cheng Mo looked at Xie Minyun's photo again and said softly in Chinese, "It's good." ”

When the skyline turned white, Heller and Khalid finally walked back to the armed pickup, which they had left in a grove of sand and dates far from the town of Adra, and seeing that the armed pickup was safe and sound, and was not discovered by the Syrian army, Heller, who was anxious, let go of the tense heartstrings slightly.

Heller slung the gun in her arms on her shoulder, walked quickly to the co-pilot, and said without turning her head: "You have to go quickly, when the day is completely bright, the danger will be much greater." ”

Khalid said yes, quickened his pace to the driver's seat, pulled his car keys out of his pocket, and opened the door.

After getting into the car, Heller breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought that Lektzka bastard would do something with the keys so that we couldn't even use the car, but fortunately it didn't." ”

Khalid inserted the key into the keyhole and twisted it to the ignition position, the low sound of the engine broke the silence of the early morning, the front headlights lit up the twisted tree trunk, and the various pointers on the dashboard also popped up, he looked at the fuel gauge and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Rykska doesn't need to do anything at all, and we still can't run more than twenty kilometers with the remaining oil." ”

"What?" said Heller, turning her head and looking at her, annoyed, "why didn't you say it earlier?"

Khalid defended himself with some grievances: "The situation was so critical last night, I didn't pay attention to how much gas was left in the car!"

Heller slammed the seat hard, "Why is it so unlucky?"

Khalid opened the car door and jumped out of the car, "I'll go and see if there are any oil drums in the trailer." ”

Heller took out her phone from her jacket pocket and tried to turn it on again, the phone with the black screen was still indifferent, she frowned and said to herself: "There will definitely be no oil barrels, this villain Lekczka must have calculated that we can't go back, what should I do?"

Morning dew was pouring on the leaves of the date trees in front of the car, the earth was showing signs of awakening, and the light at the end of the sky was like a rope around her neck, which became tighter and tighter as time passed, and Heller thought to herself, "Even if I rush back now, what can I do? What can I do? Heaven is so cruel to us queer Germans......"

With tears running dry, and unable to bear the overloaded pessimism, she clenched her phone and fell into despair.

It was pitch black, she couldn't see her feet, she couldn't tell the direction, she didn't know where to go.

"It's too bad there's no oil drum in the back!" Khaled's dejected voice rang out, he pulled the car door and sat in the driver's seat, turning his head to look at Heller, who was hiding the pain between his eyebrows, seeing her helpless appearance, Khaled's heart was like a knife, he felt that he should find a way to help her do something, so he asked, "Why don't I find an oil pot and find a way to get some gas at the gas station......?"

Heller pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth, and said, "No, no. We have to go to the refugee camp, I can't just go back....."

When the long sound of Bunker sounded in the refugee camp, Fayer's family went to the temple for the morning prayer, and only Cheng Mo and Athena were left in the room.

And that picture.

Finally when there was no one, Cheng Mo got up and walked to the cabinet, he raised his hand and gently stroked Xie Minyun's cold cheeks with his fingers, although the photo frame and photos were spotless, he still picked up the photo frame and carefully wiped it.

In the silence, Athena suddenly said, "It's strange, why did she choose you?"

"Actually, I think it's weird. Cheng Mo stared at Xie Minyun and said.

"Although it is true that you are not a good match, I am not referring to appearance and family background, I am referring to personality. ”

"Thank you for being so direct. Cheng Mo first whispered to himself, and then asked: "Do you care about a person's appearance and family background?"

"Of course not. Athena said, "But you'll care." ”

"That's right, I do care, I'm quite realistic, I first cared because it was unrealistic, and then I cared because it was too realistic....." Cheng Mo put down the photo frame, "I'm just a coward." ”

"Cowardly? I don't see it. ”

"I can do anything in extreme situations, and I don't think cowardice alone is enough....... I'm supposed to be the kind of person who doesn't want to take responsibility, and I'm good at avoiding it..... She and I are indeed quite compatible in terms of personality. A left-wing liberal like hers who pursues fairness and justice and a classical liberal like me who advocates survival of the fittest are naturally incompatible in terms of three views. It stands to reason that she should look at me as an egoist who is not pleasing to the eye, and I see her like an idealistic sand sculpture. But what's interesting about this world is that as long as you live...... There will be unpredictable things happening, and two people with opposite positions can also love each other, which is actually more difficult to overcome than identity, family background, and appearance, but it happens. It's like right now, you and I, the husband of a red aristocrat and the fiancΓ©e of a French emperor, are in a refugee room at this moment, as if we were guided by the god of fate, and we seem to have come here aimlessly......" After a pause, Cheng Mo continued, "I saw a photo. He rubbed the photo in his hand and sighed softly, "Incredible." ”

"Then I find it even more strange. Athena seemed to think for a while, and after leaving a blank space, she suddenly said lightly, "I think the two of us are suitable." ”

Cheng Mo was shaken violently, and then he told himself that this was just an example given by Athena, and it was natural for a person with low emotional intelligence like her to say such a thing. He suppressed the turmoil in his heart and tried to make himself look like he was out of it. "I also used to think about why she chose me. I have come up with a lot of psychological factors in this regard, the first cause effect, the drawbridge effect, the Stockholm syndrome...... All in all, I think she's probably looking for thrills, after all, a dangerous character like me doesn't have a few ..... around her" Cheng Mo looked back at Athena, "As for whether it is suitable or not...... Before I was with her, I thought we wouldn't be a good fit. But in fact, we got along very well later, she is a person who is used to giving, and I am a person who is used to taking. Don't look at her cold appearance, in fact, there is a bit of overflowing love, maybe she is afraid that I, the person who once saved her, will go down the wrong path, so she chooses me regardless of it! She is even willing to sacrifice herself for a little girl she never knows...... So whether it is suitable or not can only be known when we get along, of course, maybe we have been together for too short a time, and we haven't had time to have friction, but I have some blind belief that she can handle it well. ”

Athena didn't delve into the question of "fit or not", she instead asked, "You mean she repaid you?"

Cheng Mo shook his head directly and said, "This is the element, not the reason." Sometimes love can be very simple, sometimes it can be very complicated, the reason for falling in love with a person may just be the right eye, maybe it is due to complex factors such as appearance, identity, background, experience, etc. Some people's love is clear, and some people's love is not...... Love may be like a mathematical 'happy ending problem', which seems so simple that we can verify some of the conclusions, but we can't prove that given how many points in the plane can guarantee that we will be able to find a convex n-sided from it. Cheng Mo smiled, "In short, as long as the ending is good, some issues don't need to be concluded or proven." (In simple terms, the "happy ending problem" is the problem of connecting some points in a plane into a figure, and is named the "happy ending problem" because the two mathematicians who discovered the problem, George Sekereish and Esther Clay, fell in love when they studied the problem together.) οΌ‰

When Cheng Mo said the "happy ending question", Athena once again entered a state of contemplation, and after Cheng Mo finished speaking for a while, she whispered: "You are really clever in this example. When a system is large enough, like the 'happy ending problem' with enough points, we can always separate some ordered components from it, like convex polygons, even if the system as a whole is disordered. There are so many couples, some people can summarize the rules for the reasons for love, some people can't, you can never prove that there is no law in love, it's like ......"

Both men said at the same time: "George Sekereish and Esther Clay." ”

After a moment of silence, Athena asked again, "Love is more interesting than mathematics?"

"What should I say?" Cheng Mo placed the photo in the middle of the cabinet, he moved left and right several times, then moved to look far away, corrected it a few times, and then turned to face Athena, "...... Solving a math problem is only fun if you want to solve it. When you don't like math and don't want to solve it at all, it's not fun to do it. I don't know if that's accurate......"

"What if he wants to solve that problem, but he can't?"

"That'..... It will probably feel very torturous and painful. ”

"What about you? Is it unsolved or not unsolved like you?"

Cheng Mo stood in the middle of the living room and was silent for a while before he said: "One person is actually very good, but when one person tries to find another person, he will feel lonely. If one day he finds it, he has to lose it...... It will feel very lonely and lonely. He didn't look at Xie Minyun's photo again, nor did he give Athena a chance to answer, he walked straight to the sofa and lifted his backpack, then walked to the kitchen and whispered, "I'll prepare something to eat in the kitchen." ”

Athena looked in the direction of Cheng Mo thoughtfully, until the kitchen sounded a familiar small tune, which was mixed with the empty and distant Bunker, like adding a tear-jerking whisper to the high-pitched and loud holy music, which reminded her of the lemon mousse cake that her mother made for her.

It was a taste that she could not forget until now, deposited in her mind like a stubborn reef. For her, maybe lemon mousse is the taste of her mother, sweet and sour, or it may be the taste of home.

She smelled the aroma of cardamom and coffee, and she knew that Cheng Mo was mixing Coke for her, so she thought about Coke?

And what does Coke taste like to her?

She closed her eyes and leaned back on the couch, as if she were resting, as if she was indulging in a melodious blues.

After the Fajr prayer, Fayer called the UNHCR official he had mentioned, Anezan and heard that Interpol, a Chinese and a German, had arrived at the camp, and he drove from Damascus to the camp in Douma.

Completely different from Fayer, who is simple on the outside and simple on the inside, Anezan is not only short and fat, as cunning and slick as a landlord, but also quite smooth in speech, and very good at playing official.

Because of this, even if Cheng Mo and Athena's appearance was so weird that it didn't work, there were loopholes in the rhetoric, and they didn't even explain how they came to the Duma, and Anezan didn't show any suspicion, and even was quite cautious between the words, which made Cheng Mo feel low.

This kind of "kneeling" mentality, Cheng Mo still understands, how to say that he and Athena are indeed foreigners, for a country like Xulia, they are serious foreigners, and Huaxia is still the sponsor of the Duma refugee camp, it is normal for Anezan to grovel.

What made Cheng Mo sigh was that he never thought that he would be able to live the addiction of a foreign adult in his lifetime.

Anezan didn't mean to verify the identities of Cheng Mo and Athena at all, or Cheng Mo took the initiative to give the documents to Anezan, he took a hasty look, and then agreed to Cheng Mo with enthusiasm on his face to help find Ahmadi Stanger's man.

When Cheng Mo took back his documents, he felt that he was really a pearl, and Pattani prepared several sets of documents for him, each of which could stand up to inspection, and even called Interpol headquarters to find the corresponding person, but unfortunately Anezan didn't care about the authenticity of Cheng Mo and Athena's identities at all.

After agreeing to help find someone, Anezan appropriately expressed the difficulty, saying that the name "Ahmadi Stange" was too common and common, and that there were 70,000 or 80,000 people in the entire camp, and all the information was in Damascus, so it was not so easy to find him.

Cheng Mo guessed that Anezan wanted to ask for credit, and he recalled Khaled's behavior of stuffing people with money when he passed the checkpoint, and secretly thought that Fayer was a kind person, and Anezan was not necessarily so. He tentatively stuffed some euros to Anezan and said that it was to cheer for Anezan, but Anezan did not shirk at all, quietly put the money in his pocket, and immediately gave Cheng Mo three ways to find "Ahmadi Stanger".

"Mr. Xie, the fastest way is to find someone by radio, we can go to the temple minaret now and ask the broadcaster to broadcast the broadcast; if you don't want the person named Ahmadi Stange to know that you are looking for him, then I can also call the heads of the various battalions and let the heads of the battalions secretly look for him, of course this method is a little slower; there is another method that will be a little faster, but it is more troublesome, we will now go to the refugee office in Damascus to check, and the information is all over there. ”

Seeing that there was a way to go directly to Damascus, Cheng Mo naturally would not miss it, and said confidently: "We don't want to startle the snake, so it's better to go to the UNHCR in Damascus to investigate." ”

"Okay, then we'll go now?" Anezan agreed without hesitation.

Cheng Mo nodded.

Anezan smiled humbly, pointed to an old silver sign 307 parked on the side of the road at the gate of the refugee camp and said, "Those two wait a minute, I'll drive the car in, the car is not very good, please don't be surprised." ”

Cheng Mo glanced at the silver car covered in scratches and paint patches, and said with a smile, "It's okay. ”

Anezan said "Wait a minute" and trotted towards the gate with his clumsy body in his back like a fat mole.

Cheng Mo withdrew his gaze from Anezan and turned his head to look at Athena at his side. A faint haze floated among the rows of tin houses, black tin houses like silent boulders lurking in the long history. There were still a few white stars lingering in the sky, the last stubbornness of the night, stubbornly nailed above the fading canopy. The morning sun burned into the field, and they smudged the junction of heaven and earth into layers of gradients, and launched a final charge towards the night.

The overlap of day and night reflects Athena's deep profile and suddenly takes on a filmy texture, rough, vast, desolate, and beautiful.......

The picture was so beautiful that Cheng Mo lost his mind, and he couldn't help but think of the classic scene in "Titanic", the huge ship was sailing on the vast waves, the sunset dyed the sea and the sky red, and Jack and Ruth stood on the bow of the boat, like birds that never landed. The picture in the movie is completely different from the moment, but the intense and magnificent colors are just as magnificent.

The hazy glow of the sun reflected in Athena's pupils, like a beautiful movie scene.

He felt that if he were a photographer, he would be glad that Athena did not remove the mask covering her face. The light and shadow swaying in the darkness and the vague silhouette of her hiding in the darkness are just right. If Athena showed her true face, it would be out of place, her beauty would be too destructive, more violent than the sun, and everything in the world would be eclipsed.

Like Venus with a broken arm, those hands must be amputated because they are too perfect, otherwise others will not be able to appreciate the beauty of this sculpture.

His mind jumped to the image of Athena holding the sword of Perseus, and her whole body exuded an unconquerable charm, which is probably why she let men like Napoleon go forward.

Athena noticed Cheng Mo's intent, but she didn't say anything, letting Cheng Mo admire it.

Cheng Mo sighed in his heart, he knew what he was about to miss, he knew very well that he had made a terrible mistake, he felt sorry for it, but he felt relieved. He looked up at the deep blue sky, listening to the faint sound of the wind in his ears, as if listening to the singing of the woman he might have lost forever.

He forgot the sensational lines that he had thought of a long time ago, and said calmly: "I won't go to Damascus with you later......." He paused and whispered, "Let's say goodbye!"

Athena didn't speak, she watched indifferently as Anezan staggered towards the silver sign 307, the town was a faint haze in the early morning, the occasional car passing by on the road not far away, and the tire noise was unusually clear on such a morning, like the cacophony of a radio.

Some people can search for channels that belong to him, and some people can't. Some people can solve his math problems, some can't.

Cheng Mo forced himself to smile a little, he now felt that smiling was really a good thing to relieve embarrassment, he fixed the smile at the corner of his lips, and said to himself: "I owe you three Ulopolos, you can go to UBS's Paris branch on Avenue Montaigne to pick it up, the key is in the hands of one of my men, his name is Nicholas, the phone number is 06 XX XX XX 91, the password is 97XXXXXXXX, there are four Ulopolos in it, and the extra one is interest......" He put his hand in his pocket and said with some crampedness for the first time, "I don't know what skills you have in my Ulopolos, if you think that a piece of Ulopolos is less compensation and interest, I can make up some money for you, my ....."

"I don't need interest. Athena interrupted Cheng Mo's narration and said flatly.

The sound of the engine starting sounded on the side of the road, and thick white gas floated out of the exhaust pipe of the silver sign, which shook twice like a brown bear rising from the water, and then retreated more than ten meters away, and turned the head of the car flexibly, driving towards Cheng Mo and Athena who were standing in the refugee camp.

The tires crushed the gravel and made a "sand, sand, sand" sound, like a huge hourglass counting down with quicksand.

"Then what do you need?" Cheng Mo asked, he felt his heart heavier than the ground under his feet, and he didn't know if it was because of the unpredictable future, or because of the imminent parting, or because he had taken the initiative to hurt Athena again. He felt the constriction of his blood vessels and the spasm of his nerves, and the pain spread all over his body, so much so that he didn't want time to go on. But the incessant rustling and approaching headlights kept reminding him that he was heading for an end that he was powerless to control.

"I don't need anything. ”

She said in a tone colder than the morning breeze on the Gobi, making the traveler who had no place to return shiver.

"You always need this. Cheng Mo took off the backpack on his shoulder and handed it to Athena. He had entered a state of numbness, not knowing what to say, and the words that he had thought of before were soaked in the heavy rain in his mind, blurred to the point of being unrecognizable. He finally discovers that the source of his pain lies in the irreparable damage to Athena. I have trampled on this hard-won friendship again and again, whether it is friendship or some kind of affection that is a little deeper than friendship. At first, he deliberately longed for such a close relationship between the two of them, but now he was extremely disgusted with his shrewdness and cunning.

He proved that Athena also had a mortal worldly side, and he also proved that he was just an ordinary mortal who would lose reason and choose.

Cheng Mo felt that the direction of life was really unpredictable, he thought that a selfish egoist like him, always put himself first, and would never understand the meaning of dedication and dedication, but now he is violating his principles and wants to try to be a hero without hesitation.

The silver sign car stopped in front of Cheng Mo and Athena, and Anezan pressed the window and said loudly: "Mr. Xie, get in the car!"

"My colleague Wendy and you go to Damascus, and I'm here to watch. Cheng Mo said, and he handed the backpack in his hand a little closer to Athena again.

Athena raised her hand and grabbed the shoulder strap of her backpack.

Cheng Mo didn't let go of his hand immediately, he didn't dare to look at Athena, his right hand trembled slightly unconsciously, he quickly let go of his hand, and thought that he was going to grab something, and waved it in the void, but he didn't take it back immediately.

"No problem, then you can just wait here, you can sit in my office, or go to Fayle's house....."

In Anezan's noisy response, Athena walked to the dilapidated sign car with her backpack in hand, and she walked down the concrete hallway and onto the gravel road. She walked neither fast nor slow, and the sun that had just risen cast a warm light on her hairline and shoulders.

Cheng Mo heard the sound of the hourglass shattering. He couldn't tell if it was love or something else. Whatever the feeling, he did not want to ruin the friendship with Athena at all, he refused to desire to be close, and he was afraid of the arrival of love. He felt that he should more or less try to make amends, so he smiled and said, "We will meet again, and maybe it won't be long before I get in touch with you and ask you to take me to the Garden of Eden, and then ......."

Athena ignored him, she opened the car door, bowed down and got into the car, and closed the door lightly, isolating Cheng Mo from the car.

Cheng Mo closed his mouth, but his expression stopped talking.

Anezan waved his hand at Chengmo, "Mr. Xie, we'll leave for UNHCR now." ”

Cheng Mo knew that this was his last chance to stay, he felt his heart beat faster, and he knew what the only reliable Athena was leaving meant to him. He also knew how much danger Athena would face if she left her behind. He had ruined a girl who loved him dearly because of his conceit, and now he couldn't destroy another.

"Maybe loneliness is my destiny. Cheng Mo thought to himself, he raised his hand, smiled with all his might, and said to Anezan: "Let's go!"

Anezan waved.

Athena sat in the back seat, frozen like an immortal sculpture.

The silver sign moved slowly, the tires ran over the gravel, and he looked at Athena's side face, on the other side of the glass window. He felt like he was the one who had left, sitting on a small sampan, far from a fertile and lonely island. He saw Athena's eyes deeper than Star Swirl in the rearview mirror, and the distant attraction made him hold his breath.

He couldn't help but walk down the concrete steps and open his mouth, but in the end he didn't make any sound, just stared at the empty mirror image in the rearview mirror. He saw her moving eyes turn to the other side in the burning glow, avoiding his gaze, as if to reproach him for his capriciousness, and as if to mock him for being nothing more than a coward afraid of promise.

Sign 307 exited the humble gate of the refugee camp in the glow, and made an incomparably long bend in the silence of the gilded haze, heading out onto the road in the distance. Cheng Mo saw the slow-motion montage in the movie, as if he was witnessing the end of a tragedy.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Cheng Mo watched Athena leave with an expressionless face, thinking: This is a bad start, before I figured out who the enemy was, I sent the most powerful helper away, I didn't expect that I, Cheng Mo, would have such a dedicated day? It's not a dedication, I owe so much to others, how can I be embarrassed to lie to others to be a bad person with you?

"It seems that you are not so bad that you are incurable!" Cheng Mo said to himself, mimicking someone's tone, and he walked down the concrete steps towards the gate of the refugee camp. It's only seven past ten, and Fayle won't leave work until half-past eight, and Fayle is still on duty at this time.

At seven o'clock, the camp began to revive, and those slight sounds lurked like a pulse in every corner of the dense tin houses. There were sporadic Syrians coming and going at the gate, some with farm tools and some with clay pots on their heads. When they saw Cheng Mo, they would all cast surprised eyes, but it was not like when Cheng Mo was disguised as a white person, there was either hatred or disgust in his eyes, but a kind of kindness, and when they looked at Cheng Mo, they would even take the initiative to smile.

This is called Cheng Mo's mixed tastes, to him these smiles are meaningless, he doesn't care at all. However, he knew that this was the world Xie Minyun wanted, a world where there were only smiles everywhere and no war.

Cheng Mo also tried to respond with a smile, but he could only sigh with a wry smile in his heart: "Xie Xiaojin, the question you gave me is really difficult! How can I save the queer and Khaled's family?" Cheng Mo felt that he was at a loss, and his strength was not proportional to the other party, "I can only find Stanger first, the best way is to break through from within the enemy, anyway, it's not the first time I've done this kind of thing, the greater the risk, the greater the benefit, at least I can save Khalid's family first." But it's also the worst way. ”

If you want to find the queer undercover Stanger, even if there is no UNHCR official, it is not difficult for the other party to be an undercover agent, he must be in a small position in the refugee camp, as long as he asks someone in Fayle, he may be able to find out. The reason why he did not tell the UNHCR official Anezan just now was because since Anezan could take them away directly, there was no need to do more.

Walking to the duty room on the right side of the gate, Cheng Mo did not see Fayir, but another young Saudian with curly hair and camouflage uniform. The two of them looked at each other, both a little surprised, but the other's surprise was written on their faces, and Cheng Mo's surprise was hidden in their hearts.

Seeing that the other party seemed to have forgotten to speak, Cheng Mo took the initiative to ask in Saudi: "Where is Fayir?"

"Oh! Fayle, he's got something to do...... the other party came back to his senses and stared at Cheng Mo's face, his facial muscles tensed tightly, as if he was wary of something.

Cheng Mo looked down at the table, there was nothing on the table, and the curly-haired hand was also placed under the table, not resting on the table, and the other party did not ask who he was, but answered Cheng Mo's inquiry honestly, which made Cheng Mo catch the flaw. He secretly sacrificed the "Seven Sins Sect" and asked casually, "Stanger asked you to stay here, right?"

Curly hair was frightened by Cheng Mo's sudden words, his arm shook violently, and he was almost about to raise the pistol hidden under the table, but finally stabilized his mind and said quickly: "I don't know what you're talking about." Fayer he'll be back soon, you can wait here......"

"It's Heller, come here, take me to them. Cheng Mo turned his head to look at the road in the distance, the traffic began to rush up, and in a trance he saw the silver sign 307 speeding past, he turned his head and whispered to the surprised curly hair, "I am the person you are looking for." ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Cheng Mo was sandwiched by Curly and another queer German man one after the other, and came to the innermost row of simple houses in the refugee camp, which was separated from the wheat field and the field only by a fence, and outside the fence was a green wheat field, which was undoubtedly a good escape position from the topography.

The sun has not yet completely jumped out of the horizon, and the simple tin houses are hidden in the shadows, and the cold wind blows through the eaves, making the tin roofs "clang" and rattle.

The three of them walked to the middle room, and before they could knock on the door, the other party opened the door in advance, probably because there were spies in front of them and saw them coming. Before Cheng Mo entered the house, he clearly heard the sound of pulling the bolt of the gun, and when he was pushed into the dim and narrow tin house by the people behind him, several guns were raised and pointed at his head.

Cheng Mo raised his hand and glanced at it roughly, there were four Shaudians in camouflage uniforms standing in the four corners of the room, a one-eyed Shawudian standing in the middle of the living room, and Fayil was firmly tied to a chair. He held his breath and heard several people hiding in the room.

Everyone was surprised to see Cheng Mo come in, including Fayir, who was sweating profusely, wanted to say something, but his mouth was strangled by a rope, and he could only say words with unknown meaning in his throat.

One-eyed looked at Cheng Mo, then at Curly, and asked something in Syrian, and Curly stammered two answers.

Although Cheng Mo couldn't quite understand their conversation, he could roughly guess that One-Eyed should be a questionnaire Mao brought a Chinese man over. He didn't want to waste time, so he shouted directly into the closed room: "Come out of Heller! I'm Rektzka.....

The door of the room was pushed open in an instant, and Heller walked out of the room, her eyes probed around the room, and finally locked on Cheng Mo, and after looking up and down, she asked in shock: "Are you Ryktzka? You are not German?

"That's right. Cheng Mo put down his hand.

Instead, Heller picked up his gun and said coldly, "Raise your hands!"

Cheng Mo looked at the cold muzzle of the gun and raised his hand again.

"Don't move your hands, I know you have lightsabers. But you certainly can't be faster than the guns of the seven of us. Heller shouted, "Be careful, he's the guy I'm talking about......"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, and even the one-eyed who was standing in the middle flashed to the side, took out a pistol and aimed it at Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo said calmly: "Since I took the initiative to come, I just want to solve the problem, not to provoke a fight." ”

"Just catch you and we'll solve the problem. Uncle Tamer said, just catch you, and we queer Germans will be saved. ”

Cheng Mo said lightly: "Maybe we have a better solution?"

"What a better solution? When you tricked Khalid out of his phone with a broken watch, there is no friendship between us! Mr. Lekcka, I have begged you bitterly, but what did you say to me?" said Heller, in an agitated tone, "'What you have to learn from your father is not how to face fear, but not to beg for mercy at any time. ’”

Khaled's handsome face appeared next to the door, his face gloomy, gritting his teeth and staring at Cheng Mo's eyes with resentment.

Cheng Mo turned a blind eye, he still said indifferently: "I mean cooperation, I didn't leave, I just want to help you queer people and Khalid ......"

"I don't need your help right now. I'll ..... it on our own," said Heller, coldly, "Uncle Stange, you have to tie up that cunning fox with wire, and you have to tie it firmly. ”

Cheng Mo turned his head to look at the one-eyed slowly approaching, and said expressionlessly, "Can you let Mr. Fayle go first." ”

One-Eye hesitated, then turned to look at Heller.

Heller gritted his teeth and said, "We're not as bad as you!

Cheng Mo's heart turned back and forth, but he decided to hold back for the time being, letting Heller arrest him in exchange for the safety of the queer and Khalid families. He raised his hand in front of One-Eyed Stanger and said calmly, "Tie it up." ”

(I originally wanted to finish writing Syria, but I really underestimated my hydrological ability, and I still have 8,000 words in the manuscript, and I will update it the day after tomorrow)
