Chapter 356 “we are the same.”
Chapter 356 “We are all the same.”
One night later, when Xu Xiangyang saw Lin Xingjie again, it was almost noon.
The splendid sunlight dazzled people, and the transparent window glass and bright white metal window frames were submerged in a brilliant halo that made people unable to open their eyes.
With the change of the angle of the outside light, the complex column and wall structures in the building cast shadows on the big red carpet, like a dark palace suspended upside down in another underground world, silent and dense. Spread growth.
…the light is amazing, almost abnormal. It seems to be because the location is close to the sky, and the clouds in the sky as shelters are all cleared away under the action of external force.
He walked on the soft carpet, walking between the windows, the blazing light intertwined, like a river of gold melted by the high temperature flowing slowly in the air.
He went back to the top floor. The surrounding rooms and corridors were always empty. Even the sound of footsteps was absorbed by the carpet. The atmosphere was as quiet as a cemetery area.
The clothes on his body were repeatedly soaked with sweat, even his face and palms became sticky, and his steps were slightly heavy. I always felt that my lungs were heavy, and the originally light breathing inevitably turned into heavy breathing.
However, Xu Xiangyang’s heart was still hot. He came up from the safe passage all the way, and defeated all the psychics and psychics who tried to stop him.
He never had a similar experience, didn’t even imagine himself doing such an amazing thing…
But under the stimulation of adrenaline, Xu Xiangyang always maintained a passionate mood and never felt tired at all.
Once you reach this level, no one will stand in your way. It’s not that no one has boarded here, it’s better to say that this is the place where the most members of the Stargazing Club gather—
But, before he came up, everyone had already been knocked down. One by one came up, and he didn’t know whether the group of people lying on the ground were dead or in a coma. Xu Xiangyang didn’t have the heart to check. In short, there was no survivor.
Several whale monsters with dark bodies, tentacles all over their bodies, and several circles larger than their counterparts, are wandering leisurely in the corridors, passing through guest rooms one after another, like fishes walking between coral clusters and reefs in the sea. .
The tops of the ferocious heads of the giant beasts pierced through the ceiling, but these behemoths roamed freely in the world of reinforced concrete, unobstructed by any obstacles in reality, like pieces of illusory light and shadow, solid walls and ground were There are circles of waves.
It seems that they are the “murderers” who knock down the invaders.
However, these monsters did not stop Xu Xiangyang, and they completely ignored his existence. They swam their tails full of edges, corners and scales, and swam past him.
Maybe it’s because Xiao An is used to the existence of this boy who accompanies the master.
…
Then, at the last safe passage to the top of the hotel building, he finally met Lin Xingjie.
This girl is supporting her chin with her hands, turning her face to the side, staring at the fire hydrant box hanging on the wall in a daze, with an air of boredom.
Long black hair like forest wicker fell to her knees, hiding the girl’s snow-white face.
Seeing her like this, Xu Xiangyang couldn’t help laughing out loud.
He is used to seeing him, because every time Xingjie is bored, he always puts on the same face.
When she was halfway through her homework, when she was listening to his make-up lessons, when she went out on the bus together, or when she was talking about some topics she was not interested in—
Although she was depressed herself, Xu Xiangyang, who was a bystander, could always watch with relish.
Rapunzel held her cheeks and looked away in a daze. The lines and contours built by her hands and face were as beautiful as an oil painting by a master. No matter how many times she stared at it, she would never get bored.
This time too. Originally anxious, he naturally stopped and began to stop and admire.
Xu Xiangyang’s mood was completely relaxed, because he knew that Xingjie had never undergone the so-called “earth-shaking” change.
A person’s personality and attitude are often presented in the details. He knows that the girl in front of him is no different from the past. What worries Qingyue the most… No, let’s be honest, that’s what worries him the most – it didn’t actually happen.
Xu Xiangyang even felt a little guilty.
Because even if he said “I believe her”, but in the face of the changing scene of heaven and earth, and the series of changes that happened to him and the people around him that seemed to really herald the end of the world, his inner Deep down, doubts are still growing.
He sighed, stepped forward, and greeted her.
“Hi, Xingjie.”
Rapunzel, who was sitting on the stairs, turned around when she heard the sound.
Lin Xingjie’s pupils were still so pure and bright, like a clear spring in the mountains and forests, so clear that he always felt that he could clearly see his face reflected on the surface of those dark pupils.
She did not respond until Xu Xiangyang began to feel uneasy because of the silence.
“-Who are you?”
Lin Xingjie frowned and asked back with a puzzled look.
*
Xu Xiangyang was stunned.
The long-haired girl sitting on the stairs looked at her quietly, as if she was still a little curious.
It was still those beautiful eyes, but at this moment Xu Xiangyang didn’t think they were like spring water. He felt that it was more like a quiet ancient well. Anyone who looked down at the dark water would feel a chill in their hearts; Now, with her eyes facing her, it was as if she was accidentally sucked into the well, and her whole body was immersed in the cold, bone-piercing well water…
“—Pfft.”
Lin Xingjie covered her mouth. She frowned, and a happy laughter flowed between her fingers.
“Hehe…hahaha…”
She couldn’t stop laughing, covered her stomach and bent down, laughing her head back and forth.
“Look at you…haha…your expression just now, I really want Qingyue to see it with my own eyes…”
Xu Xiangyang, who was standing still, was stunned for a while, and found that his fingers were still shaking, and the impact of the shock and panic at that moment still lingered on him.
he said with a wry smile.
“No, I was really scared. When you said that just now, my heart stopped suddenly, I just felt breathless… I’m not exaggerating.”
He walked up to Xing Jie and took a few deep breaths before he felt the pounding heart in his chest gradually calm down.
“I thought this kind of bad thing, this kind of prank… Only Qingyue would do it.”
“Why, can’t I do it?”
Rapunzel lowered her head. Her laughter had stopped unknowingly, and she asked in a muffled voice.
“…No, just a little bit like you.”
Xu Xiangyang stared at her seriously.
“You can make such a bad joke, it seems that you are in a bad mood.”
“Probably okay…?” Lin Xingjie didn’t look up or look at him. She put her hands around her knees to herself, and replied in a low voice, “It’s just that you came so late, I’ve been sitting here all morning, and you’ve come to pick me up.”
“Because there are people blocking the way. What Meng Zheng, Long Po, there are a bunch of people around them and they all want to come to you. So before meeting you, I hope to drive these people away as much as possible. , lest they disturb you.”
Xu Xiangyang sighed and sat down beside the girl.
“After I got up in the morning, both you and Qingyue were gone. So I went to find you. I first met my sister and people from the relevant departments, and they came together…”
“Sister Lian is here too?”
“Yes. Think about it, both of us haven’t been back all day, she will definitely be worried. And with her resolute personality, she should come out to find us as soon as she realizes that something is wrong.”
“…Yeah, that’s what I said.” The long-haired girl buried her face in her knees, shaking her head slightly, “Then what are we hiding…?”
“I can’t hide it. It is said that Captain Zhou… um, do you remember? It was the old policeman we met a few times who invited his sister to join the team of the relevant department. So the current situation between us, she basically It’s all clear.”
“That’s right. Did she…”
“She didn’t blame us. Actually speaking of this…”
Xu Xiangyang hesitated for a moment.
“I don’t know if you have such a hunch. I felt that this matter could not be hidden from her. Sister, she should have noticed the abnormality in us.”
“Well, it’s possible.”
When the two were talking, Lin Xingjie kept her head down.
I don’t know from the beginning, she was not smiling; or, from the beginning, even when she was playing a prank, she was not “laughing”.
“I’ve made an appointment with my sister. I’ll take you and Qingyue out of this place. She’s waiting for us below. We’ll take the car home together later.”
“…”
“Xingjie, what do you say? Is there anything else?”
“I, of course I’m fine. Where’s Qingyue?”
“After I met her, I decided to come to you together. After discussing it in the middle, I decided to split the army into two separate ways to break through the obstacles of Meng Zheng and Long Po to see you. Compared with me, the pressure on her side is even greater. …you know, that guy named ‘Long Po’ is very powerful.”
“If I can, I want to help her, but right now I don’t seem to have the extra strength…”
“It doesn’t matter. That’s Mr. Monitor. I believe she can do anything. We’ll just stay here and wait for her.”
“Hmm. Looks like there’s still a little time left.”
After Lin Xingjie finished saying this, the two fell silent at the same time.
On the stairs leading to the rooftop, one person is sitting upright and one person is holding his knees. The atmosphere is a little awkward and a little heavy, like a pair of blind date people who are meeting for the first time, and at the same time, they are easily shy and nervous.
“Xiangyang…”
“Well, I’m here.”
“Sorry, I won’t make that joke again.”
“It’s okay. A little spooky occasionally helps protect cardiovascular health.”
“You’re not feeling well? Are you angry?”
“Not angry. … I think, a boyfriend like me is probably not qualified to be angry.”
“Oh.”
There was another moment of silence, and then she honestly admitted.
“It’s my problem. You’re right, I’m not in a good mood.”
Lin Xingjie raised his head. Before Xu Xiangyang noticed this and really saw her face, she put her face on the shoulder of the boy next to her.
The girl took a deep breath and let out a nostalgic sigh, and suddenly heard the sound of “rustling” fabric rubbing – her arm was hugged, and she was hugged by him.
“Want to chat with me?”
“…Ok.”
Lin Xingjie leaned against her lover’s chest and adjusted her posture a little to make herself more comfortable before speaking.
“That guy named Meng Zheng, he used some kind of strange medium ability to give me a memory.”
Xu Xiangyang was holding the girl’s slender arm. After hearing this topic, his fingers unconsciously exerted a little force.
“…is it something about your past?”
“Yes, it seems to be about how I became a **** match. I heard him say that other **** match is born naturally, and they are born with the power to change the pattern of the world. Only me is different. , and the whole thing happened when I was a kid.”
“You already know that now?”
“No. The only memory he gave me was the first paragraph. He said it was for safety reasons. I think he was using this as bait. In short, I at least know one thing.”
“what?”
“This memory is indeed related to me, ‘Xiao An’ and the sea in the dream. Because after receiving the memory, my physical condition was quickly stabilized, and my abilities were enhanced. In addition, there is one more thing …”
“Ok?”
“It’s really about him.”
“You mean…”
“Yes, it’s the man who left my mother and me irresponsibly, and I don’t know where to go. I’ve almost forgotten what that guy looks like.”
Listening to Lin Xingjie’s muttering, Xu Xiangyang was silent for a while, and then said comfortably.
“I think this is a good thing. After all, he is your father, so he won’t harm you… Or do you think your father-in-law is the kind of person who would sacrifice his daughter’s life?”
“Don’t call his father-in-law!”
He was punched hard in the stomach.
“Ouch!”
Xu Xiangyang exclaimed exaggeratedly. So Xingjie laughed again, and the two laughed together.
“…I don’t think he’s a heinous bad guy.”
After a few minutes, Rapunzel wiped the sparkle from the corner of her eyes and whispered.
“In my impression, he is a very gentle person who treats me and my mother very well, and never scolds anyone. But today, I understand that I don’t really know him, and he never gave me this Opportunity to find out. Maybe…”
“Maybe?”
“Maybe, am I really the great devil who is destined to destroy the world? He will disappear from the world later, maybe it has something to do with me.”
“Why are you like Qingyue now?” Xu Xiangyang felt helpless. “Everything likes to think in the worst direction. Besides, you have said this several times.”
Lin Xingjie laughed “Haha”.
“However, in the final analysis, I don’t really care about his affairs. We haven’t seen each other for almost ten years, and in these ten years, he has never shouldered the responsibility of a father. Others may think that my thoughts are unfilial, But the man I care about is only you.”
The long-haired girl whispered softly. Taking advantage of Xu Xiangyang’s unpreparedness, she suddenly raised her neck and pressed her wet lips up.
“So, I’ve been thinking about it just now, thinking that there are indeed many things in this world, which were decided a long time ago. Since I am a created **** match, I am destined to carry something. It may be Good things, maybe bad things. If after I wake up, things are going in a bad direction, I can’t control my power, and I have to become a big devil. What if you leave me behind… I don’t care about others, but Xiangyang, only you…”
Xu Xiangyang’s neck soon became wet, and at the same time, the tickling feeling of being licked with his tongue continued to come. He struggled to endure, wrapping his arms even tighter.
“I’m sorry, you made an agreement with me last night, obviously I know that you are a person who does what you say, but I still can’t help but have doubts in my heart. It’s like this over and over, over and over… she murmured softly. “I’m a hopelessly bad girl…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. It doesn’t matter how many times.”
He stroked her hair with his hand and comforted her in her ear.
“we are the same.”
