Chapter 244: Digging (1)

Xie Qingcheng was taken to a room on the roof.

That was the place where He Yu was imprisoned.

When He Yu was brought back to the island by the organization, he resisted fiercely, his mood fluctuated, and he became violent several times after the operation. In a cell-like room, until he slowly regained his calm under their grace, until he expressed his willingness to serve the organization.

Now Xie Qingcheng is also imprisoned here, spending the last ten or dozens of hours of his life.

Shortly after his showdown, the sound of fighting at the hottest place stopped. Mandela and the Dreambreakers temporarily ceased fire.

Xie Qingcheng sat in the tower cell, closed his eyes, and let time pass by minute by minute.

Duan Wen sent people to check him many times. When the blood test was drawn, those people seemed very nervous. It was obvious that Xie Qingcheng had been searched 180 times on his body. May carry any weapon.

Xie Qingcheng knew that Duan Wen and the others were wary of him, but whether he believed it or not, Mandela had to take the risk of accepting him.

Because the first emperor's highly adaptable body is really what Duan Cuizhen dreams of.

Now, Xie Qingcheng leaned against the cold room wall, turned his head, and looked at the distant mountains and rivers outside the window. From here, you can have a panoramic view of the east coast of Mandela Island. At this time, it is dusk, the Golden Crow is sinking, and the sea is turbulent, sparkling and brittle, like thousands of horses in golden armor fighting in the waves. Soon, as the setting sun twilights and the sunset glows, there are large areas of bleak red in those golden colors, which are really as heroic as blood on the battlefield.

The view from this room is very good, but if you look at it day after day and you can't go anywhere, no matter how good the view is, it will become a nightmare.

Xie Qingcheng sat quietly by the window. He knew that He Yu must have sat in this position before. There were some scattered graffiti on the wall, which were carved with small stones. He came in not long after Later, I found these things.

These graffiti are from when He Yu was trapped here.

Xie Qingcheng saw the long-term sleepers here, and became famous for writing on the water.

Saw a puppet bear holding a hot air balloon.

Saw lotus lamp candles, endless summer hydrangea, grinning little fire dragon...

He saw He Yu curled up alone in this room, his eyes were empty, and he took fine pebbles and painted these things on the wall that he thought he had lost forever.

He saw He Yu get off the Ferris wheel, walked up to him, and said, bro, can you give me a hug.

Xie Qingcheng slowly closed his eyes, but those pictures did not let him go, they still kept appearing in front of his eyes... Others may never understand the content on the wall, but Xie Qing All can understand.

He put his palm on the flame of the little fire dragon's tail, as if He Yu's hand had just left.

He Yu hated him so much at that time, but he didn't betray him. Today, he just wants to use this broken body as a bridge for He Yu, so that he can return to normal society.

His plan—dangerous, with a low chance of success.

But as long as it is done, it will be the least loss and the most thorough way to destroy Mandela.

Xie Qingcheng is waiting.

Another tube of blood was drawn, Mandela's people were busy preparing for the confirmation of his identity as the first emperor, but they wanted to immediately determine Xie Qingcheng's physique just by relying on the blood sample It's still too difficult. After all, the physique of the first emperor is no better than others. The high adaptability makes his body cells very good at camouflage under the microscope.

Xie Qingcheng could see the anxiety of those experimenters.

Everything is getting more intense.

The setting sun has completely set, and there is no moon tonight, he has completely lost the tool to calculate time.

This kind of detention can actually drive people crazy, because they don't know what will happen in the next moment, and they don't know how long time has passed, and how long they will wait in this state. It is easy for normal people to become mentally fragile and have a mental breakdown in this situation.

But Xie Qing was different.

He is much more patient than ordinary people.

What's more, when he closes his eyes, he will feel that He Yu from three years ago is still by his side, and the ultimate purpose of his trip is to take He Yu out, so there is something in his heart. He had a torch that would not be easily extinguished. The light and heat of the torch kept him from losing his mind in this extremely depressing atmosphere.

After some time, the cell door opened again.

Xie Qingcheng raised his eyes, looked at the door, and turned away after just one look.

He was not surprised at all, it was Anthony.

Anthony will definitely come to him, it is estimated that this is the time.

The man who had a meager blood relationship with him walked in alone, his face was clouded and he looked rather gloomy.

Wearing a lab coat, he first swept Xie Qingcheng's shackled hands and ankles, and then approached him.

Professor An was also wearing plastic gloves in the laboratory, and there was a faint smell of disinfectant on his body. He forcibly pulled Xie Qingcheng's face over, forcing his cousin to look at him.

"Why are you turning your head away, I'm disappointed to see that?"

Xie Qingcheng rolled his eyes, and Anthony's shadow was reflected in the only eye that could see: "Then what do you want me to say. Good evening? Welcome?"

I didn't expect Xie Qingcheng to be so calm at this moment, Anthony was startled, then narrowed his eyes, and said viciously, "You're still playing tricks when you're about to die, you are really hard bones."

"That's natural. How can I be your brother if my bones are soft."

"You are not my brother!" Anthony shouted at him as if he had been touched, "You are just a thief who stole my things! Thief...! It's your fault! It's your retribution!"

“…”

"You're going to die soon, Xie Qingcheng." He squeezed Xie Qingcheng's cheek tightly, staring at the man he wished to strangle countless times in his dreams, "So many years I wanted to kill you, but Duan Wen never forbid it, and now he finally let go - it turns out that you are the first emperor...! I said that you can't die, but now - everything is over! I finally I can see your body... I can finally watch you disappear into this world!"

"I would like to congratulate you in advance Xie Lishen." Xie Qingcheng was still very quiet in his hands, "The wish for many years has finally come true."

Seeing his reaction, Anthony's face was even more ugly: "Why are you pretending to be calm."

I feel like I'm wasting the last moment of my life because it's you who's here this time."

Anthony released his hand suddenly and threw him back to the window: "Nonsense, do you know my nature? I am a senior researcher of Mandela, and the transplant operation will be performed by me, I'm here for work! What are you looking forward to, cousin Xie, who do you think your garbage time will be wasted on? He Yu? Don't laugh at me, you shouldn't be up to now, you can still be naive I thought He Yu would take the initiative to see you!"

“…”

"Wear that device on him, his brain will be completely controlled by Mandela, he is now our fighting machine, he has no right to see you, and he will not have any I want to see you! I tell you... I did all of this!" Anthony's expression was extremely distorted, "I did it! I washed him into the ultimate blood worm! Originally I was the first! Why are you at this time? Do you want to tell Duan Wen that you are the first emperor, Xie Qingcheng? Do you know that you have ruined my affairs again!"

"I just finished brainwashing blood poison, and you exploded the first emperor! Why do you always want to steal my limelight and my benefits!?!"

"It's good now...you have to die! When He Yu regains consciousness, your body will already belong to the wife, and you won't even see the last face! These are all yours Retribution! Retribution! You will never see him again in your life! You will not be happy either!"

."

Anthony's face shrank slightly, but after thinking that Xie Qingcheng did not have any chance to see He Yu, he said: "Are you crazy, delusional? You will never see you again. When he is sober, you have to tell me several times before you understand that when he recovers, you are dead—!"

Xie Qingcheng watched Anthony with a grim expression in front of him.

"I don't expect you to understand what I'm talking about. Xie Lishen, I just feel sorry for you."

"You think I'm pitiful?" Anthony seemed offended. "You're a dying man—you think I'm pitiful?"

"My death is my choice." Xie Qing said with a calm expression, "I have been pursuing what I want all my life. I have ideals, family, and friends. , I have myself, people I want to protect, and things I want to do. I live with dignity. Even in this death, I got the result I wanted. Duan Wen is a better man than you. The bottom line person, I know he will send He Yu back to the Dreambreaker after I die. And you can't stop him at all. You are just a worker for him."

"..." Anthony was going crazy, his handsome face was contorted, "I am a doctor! After I left your house, I went abroad by my own ability! I read I got the same major as you and did the same job as you! I was so poor in America but so good that Mandela gave me an olive branch! Can you do it? Ah? Selling everything I had to the powerful when I was humble! Can you do it like I did? You can't!"

"I've never been worse than you!" He stared into blood red eyes.

How difficult were those years?

How difficult is it to start over and stand at the top of society?

When he was eighteen years old, he was able to go abroad by relying on his fifty-eight-year-old godfather! Just because Xie Qingcheng called the police, there was a smear of theft on his file! In those few years, he had to laugh and coax the dead fat pig whose belly was bigger than the pregnant woman in August!

He hated Xie Qingcheng very much at that time, and he wanted to stand out in one breath and become a tougher person than Xie Qingcheng in the future.

"I'm a doctor in the United States...my alma mater is much better than yours! But you dare to say...I'm a...a..."

Xie Qingcheng didn't want to listen anymore, he interrupted Anthony's madness, he said: "Xie Lishen, you are crazy like this, have you thought about it?"

“…thought of something!?”

"After I die, what is your motivation to live?"

Anthony's shoulders suddenly stiffened.

Xie Qingcheng raised his eyes and looked at him, because of the light in the room, in Anthony's opinion, his blind eyes were as cold and clear as when they were not blind.

"I feel sorry for you, you have always lived in loss. When your father lost his inheritance, he transferred this loss to you like a cancer cell. You Always think about everything you've lost, worry about it, but never look to see what's worth pursuing ahead of the road."

“…”

"Xie Lishen, since you were a child, all you thought about was how to break me down by any means and how to take away my things - have you ever cared about yourself? You have cared about the dignity of your own life, The meaning of life, have you ever cared about what you like?" Xie Qingcheng coughed slightly by the window.

At this moment, Anthony had a very strange feeling, as if the two of them had returned to the hut in Moyu Lane again, and the older brother was speaking to him with a serious face.

And no matter how unconvinced he was, he couldn't take a step and leave the hut.

Xie Qingcheng asked: "You don't like many things I have at all. You don't like studying medicine, but you become Dr. Anthony, you don't like white, but you have to wear laboratory clothes. Uniform - you don't like He Yu either."

Anthony: "…"

"You don't like him, you are just using him to make me uncomfortable. I admit that you did succeed, but now I know that what you said is false, the reason why you Knowing those things that only me and him know is because you used hypnotism to glimpse his memory."

Xie Qingcheng's sickly face had a hint of sigh: "What are you doing, Xie Lishen. You can't take your eyes off me and take a look Your own future? Does your life have to be based on hatred of another person? Can you respect some of your life as a separate entity - think about it after this battle, What do you really want?"

He gnashed his teeth and said: "What are you pretending to do?! Don't act like you are still thinking about me from my point of view!"

"Actually." Xie Qing said coldly, "My words are for you from your point of view."

Anthony raised his head and laughed, then spit at Xie Qingcheng fiercely, and said sternly: "Absurd! You? Consider me? Do you really think I'm a fool, or is it really the first emperor's highness? Think of yourself as a savior? Why do you think about me, don't you hate me? Don't you disgust me? Xie Qingcheng! Don't live so hypocritical forever! "

Xie Qingcheng looked at him indifferently: "I never said that I don't hate you. But this may be the last alone conversation between you and me. Xie Lishen. This may also be my last time, I Don't want to really waste it completely."

“…”

"You have at least called me brother, whether it's true or false. I also remember my parents once asked me to let you go a little more, because you really suffered a lot. The most important thing is It's..."

He paused, his eyes still seemed to be able to see the deepest part of the heart.

"I think you protected at least one person."

Anthony's expression suddenly froze.

Xie Qingcheng: "I didn't know what was going on before, but I didn't understand the reason until I knew you were working for the Mandela organization - Xie Lishen, you save me Thank you Xie Xue."

"At her wedding, Wei Rong originally wanted to drug Wei Dongheng and me, but in the end it was only me, and Wei Dongheng drank the drug mixed with sleeping pills. Tea, but avoided disaster." Xie Qing Cheng said, "I thought at first that someone was protecting Wei Dongheng in secret, after all, compared to Xie Xue, Wei Dongheng seemed more like an object that certain forces would value. In fact, the opposite is true.”

He looked at Anthony well.

"The person who gave the sleeping pills is you who belongs to the Mandela organization with Wei Rong."

“…”

Xie Qing folded her long fingers and said, "You just hate me the most, and you didn't get involved with Xie Xue - because she was very young at that time and had a good personality, You have always been kinder than me. In my impression, you are the only one who never had any disputes with her. After she accidentally entered Chengkang mental hospital and was almost killed by Jiang Lanpei, you called her and asked She's been through. She's probably the only one in our family that you don't hate."

Anthony frowned, undecided.

But he knew in his heart that what Xie Qingcheng said was right.

Xie Xue was too young at that time, no matter if he caught Xie Qingcheng or Xie Lishen, he called him brother.

He was not happy at first, they were all brothers, what's the difference between this and that? He always bullied her secretly, soaking caterpillars in her milk, stuffing spiders in her little shoes, and spitting on her face when no one was at home. Xie Xue was often made to cry by him, but after crying, he stretched out his hand for him to hold him without a long memory.

Xie Lishen was really malicious once. During a family outing, he wanted to push her into the pond in the park. The pond was full of green grasses, and it looked like grass. If she fell, no one would suspect that he did it. Everyone would think that the children accidentally regarded the green grasses as green areas. tragedy.

This plan was too tempting for him, Xie Li couldn't help but slowly approached from behind her, reaching out...

He thought, if Xie Xue accidentally fell into the water and died, how wonderful the expressions of Xie Ping's family would be? The more he thought about it, the more his heart was surging, and his hand was about to push Xie Xue's back, but—

"Brother!"

Xie Xue suddenly turned around, such a small girl, unable to stand still, jumped straight into his arms and shouted in ambiguous language: "Brother!"

Xie Lishen was very annoyed, thinking that she wanted him to hold her again. His boss was impatient and even wanted to throw her into the water.

He shouted: "Brother be careful!" Xie Li was stunned for a moment, missed her shoulder, looked behind her, and then he saw—

On the other side of the small pond, there is a young boy playing with a simulated sniper rifle. Knowing that this seems to be a very dangerous thing, she has seen it on TV, so she turned around without thinking, and fought back in front of her family...

Anthony hated the Xie Ping family.

Only because of this incident, Xie Xue became an exception.

Xie Lishen could never forget her eyes at that time, shining, so beautiful, so firm, so pure... Those peach eyes, like gems that never fade, became The only bright spot in his dark life.

"You saved her, and I don't want to owe anyone anything." Xie Qingcheng said, "So I hope you can find the meaning of your life again... This is the last time I will be you Cousin, what to say to you."

Anthony finally picked up after a long silence.

"...Huh, yes, I care about Xie Xue. She has been able to go well all these years, not only because you protect her in the light, but also because I keep staring at her in the dark security. I think we both have a common purpose at this point."

"My only mistake over the years was the one at Chengkang Hospital. I didn't expect her to be killed by Jiang Lanpei as a hostage." Anthony said here, but chuckled, then The smile was a little scary, "but so what? I'm always in the dark, you're always in the light - she is most grateful to you, and depends on you the most, as long as you are alive, she is between you and me, and will And I will always choose your brother. That's why I said, you have been taking my things away."

“…”

Xie Lishen looked at his sickly appearance and sneered: "But it doesn't matter. After you die, I have a way to make her stand on my side obediently."

Xie Qingcheng changed color for the first time because of his words, he raised his head suddenly, because he had just coughed violently, and his peach blossom eyes were still stained with reddish and water vapor.

"What do you want to do with her? I'll tell you Xie Lishen, don't give a **** about the idea of ​​killing her!"

Because of Li Yun's previous experience, Xie Qingcheng saw his desire from Anthony's expression almost at once: "You think you made her a violent murder, she is still the same Is that Xie Xue?"

Anthony squinted his eyes: "Why not. It can retain part of her thinking, and get rid of the thinking I don't want, and let her listen to her brother honestly—"

"She is a living person!" Xie Qingcheng finally showed an angry look at this moment, "Xie Lishen, she is a living person! You have to get rid of her thoughts and let her What the **** are you listening to?"

Xie Qingcheng has been restraining his emotions since he saw him. At this time, his anger surged, and his pale face finally came alive.

Anthony looked at his face, suddenly a little stunned.

Xie Qingcheng gritted his teeth and said, "Wake up, Xie Lishen! You have done so many **** and killed so many people, isn't it enough for you to feel guilty? What are you thinking about violent killings - look Didn't Duan Wen's Li Yun, Zoya's Ava? Those androids are fake! It's Huang Liang Yimeng - you have a living sister, but you have such an idea, are you crazy?! You are getting deeper and deeper into this organization!"

Anthony's body trembled slightly.

He stared at Xie Qingcheng's eyes—

Reddish, misty peach eyes.

Xie Xue's face suddenly flashed in front of her eyes.

That was the last time Xie Xue, who was always cheerful, shed tears in front of him. It was after Xie Qingcheng's parents had an accident. At that time, he actually went back to Xie's house twice while Xie Qingcheng was away.

The second time was to steal money and steal things, the first time…

The first time I don't know why, I just want to go back and have a look.

He stepped on the spot, no one was home that day, he sat for a while in the empty room, looking at the place where he and their family used to hang on the wall. The group photo has been taken down, and there are only some indelible marks left in those positions.

He raised his hand and touched the traces, showing a twisted smile that could not be said to be sarcasm or something else-then he left, walked to the corner of the alley, and suddenly heard a young The voice, calling him—

"Brother."

He was taken aback, turned his head abruptly, and found that it was Xie Xue who was riding a child-assisted bicycle.

Only Xie Xue was alone.

At that time, Xie Xue still didn't understand many things. She saw Xie Lishen, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and thought he was coming back, so she pedaled **** the low bicycle and rode hard to reach him Beside him, he raised his head and called to him: "Brother, are you home yet?"

“…”

He stood blankly, for no reason, and suddenly felt scared.

?

He was out of breath, turned around and ran away.

Xie Xue was stunned, the child did not understand so many twists and turns, she only knew that Xie Lishen saw her running away like a ghost, which made her very sad, She hasn't seen him for so long...

Her little bike is a three-wheeled learning bike, so she can't ride fast at all, but she pushed **** her short legs and chased after him, crying while chasing: "Brother , go home! Go home..."

Brother…

Brother!

Xie Li suddenly woke up from his memory.

He came back to his senses, his face was pale, and he stared at Xie Qingcheng's eyes.

These are the eyes…

These eyes are so similar to Xie Xue.

At this moment, he was still in a trance, made him uneasy, and made him hear the sad cry that seemed to come from the abyss of hell.

Go home...

Xie Lishen, go home...

That voice came from that man and that woman... that dead man and woman, that hypocritical man and woman... that... that kind man... and woman...

He's so jealous...

The man and the woman—why not his parents? !

In fact, this is his true heart! This has always been his sincerity! He cursed Xie Ping and Zhou Muying, saying that they stole his life, but Xie Qingcheng was the only one he really hated! Why? Why are such parents not his? Why can't he get them, all he gets is a gambler dad and a **** mom!

Why...

Why? ! !

"Xie Lishen, go home." The man said.

"Lishen, starting from today, this is your home." The woman extended her hand to him.

He dared not touch.

Fake…

He had always been so sure in his heart that it was fake! fake!

How could they keep giving him a home! One day they will take it away... They will show their true colors one day, only take Xie Qingcheng away, and leave him alone...

Yes, it's all fake... fake... fake!

Father's slap in the face, endless swearing at him after being drunk, neighbors pointing at him, the rice in the bowl that was as dry as glass scum—

Only these are true.

He has no home.

Xie Qingcheng's parents could not be really good to him.

But...

But until they died, Xie Lishen didn't find any evidence that they treated him badly.

He was sad.

Twenty years of depression... It's all fate's fault, if Xie Ping and Zhou Muying were his parents from the beginning, then nothing like this would happen. If only... if it wasn't for Xie Qingcheng...

He saw this glowing picture scroll, he stood between Xie Ping and Zhou Muying, he replaced Xie Qingcheng and became their son, he held their hands, surrounded by smiles Xie Xue, who had to show a milk tooth.

Xie Lishen's heart trembled deeply, almost kneeling under this picture...

Then—

Suddenly, the AI ​​in the headset beeped.

Anthony snapped back to his senses—there was no picture.

In front of him, Xie Qingcheng was the only one, looking at him calmly with those peach eyes that he had intensely longed for and hated.

This is reality...this is reality!

This is his nightmare, his weakness, and something he cannot easily face.

He and him, just as he and his eyes, are so similar, yet so different! …hatred! I hate it!

The child who was about to push Xie Xue down. Full of viciousness, malice, and impulse at any cost.

"Xie Qingcheng." He opened his mouth, his voice was very soft, but it was more terrifying than ever.

Because of that crazy impulse, his fingers were shaking slightly, and he swallowed.

Anthony approached Xie Qingcheng and stared at those eyes.

Xie Qingcheng didn't know what he was going to do yet, he stared at him with his eyes.

Xie Lishen was more and more hurt and stinged by this calm. His face was getting closer and closer to his cousin's face. He was in front of the window, leaning over and staring at Xie Qingcheng's peach blossom eyes that almost made him lose his mind.

Yes...there must be no such thing.

In this world, there can never be such a pair of eyes again.

Similar to him, but prettier than him... No way!

Anthony thought, that beautiful face gradually revealed a hideous look, he pinched Xie Qingcheng's chin with one hand, and slammed the sick to the bone marrow. man! The other hand was shaking more and more, but it was also raised little by little, and the **** were getting closer and closer to Xie Qingcheng's eyes...

Xie Qingcheng finally realized what he wanted to do.

Xie Qingcheng's body tensed and his face turned pale, this reaction made Xie Lishen feel a little happy: "Are you afraid...? You are finally afraid... cousin, you are also afraid sometimes. ?"

But when the two looked at each other again, after a few seconds, Xie Lishen's smile disappeared. Because he didn't see fear in Xie Qingcheng's eyes. Xie Qingcheng didn't seem to be losing his blood because his body was about to be hurt.

Sure enough, the man said to him through his scattered forehead hair and pale lips, "Xie Lishen, don't let your life be broken even more."

Is he not afraid? Not afraid of dying?

"...My life was broken by you." Xie Li hated deeply and muttered maliciously. His voice was trembling, pea-sized beads of sweat were dripping down, and his eyes were shining fiercely, he was shaking so much, compared to Xie Qingcheng, it seemed that he was the one who was about to be tortured: "I Your life was shattered by you...!"

He repeated in a low voice.

The beads of sweat kept rolling down, Xie Lishen's eyes were abnormal and abnormal.

"Xie Qingcheng, I'm telling you...I did this...I'm not jealous of you! It's because there are too few blood samples...we're short on time...you know what, ah?" To find an excuse for his upcoming behavior, his Adam's apple was rolling up and down frantically, he swallowed, his eyes almost stared into a cockfight, his breath sprayed on Xie Qing's cool skin, "We must get you more. A lot of flesh and blood for pre-operative analysis... Understand? This has to be done. It's not that I'm afraid of you, it's not that I'm jealous... it's not!"

He said, pulled Xie Qingcheng closer, raised his hand high - down - to those eyes -

"...this is what I...have to do...!"

Heart down—!

The fingertips have touched the eyelashes, and they are shaking violently, but they are not retracted.

These eyes are like bronze mirrors, according to the figure that Xie Lishen almost no longer recognizes himself.

Xie Qingcheng was still calm until this moment.

He will not be restless. At this point, he has even risked his life. No torture is unbearable for him.

He knew that Xie Lishen would not stop.

The fingers tremblingly pressed towards Xie Qingcheng's eyes, at the last moment, Xie Qingcheng suddenly turned his eyes to the side—

If this is the last glimpse of the world, what does he want to see?

The beautiful glass eyes have the answer.

He has looked at the wall of the cell, at the mottled graffiti on the wall...

He looked at the English on the wall, looking at the endless summer.

Looking at the little fire dragon, looking at the young man who only he can see, holding stones on the wall to draw these.

Xie Lishen shouted something angrily in his ear, he didn't listen or care anymore. He just stared at those simple lines, but suddenly felt that those lines had come to life, and the patterns drawn by Baishi Zi were suddenly filled with the brightest and brightest colors he had ever seen in his life.

He closed his eyes.

"I have to do...I have to do this!" The howl was like a devil's curse.

Insane...

Then finally - "snort"!

Creepy.

The sticky sound of blood separation, and the sharp pain that erupted from the eye socket, became the final rest of this conversation.

The fascia was ruptured, the foreign object entered the eye, shattered the colorful light still living on his retina, the finger force, tore off the last link between his vision and the world, the pain has been piercing the skull into the bone The heart, buried deep in his flesh and blood, was torn apart abruptly and pulled out!

The flesh that brings light, leaves the bone.

I saw all the good and bad in the world and left him.

Flesh and blood left him.

I have looked at my parents, mentor, younger sister, friends, I have looked into He Yu's eyes, and I have left him...

His eyes have brought him a lot of pain and seen a lot of things he doesn't want to see, but he is still grateful for it because it allowed him to see those people.

He saw love and kindness.

Since then, I have never forgotten…

Blood, slowly running down his face…

“…huh…huh…”

Xie Li's deep and rapid breathing echoed in the room.

Xie Qingcheng bit his lower lip and did not say a word, but Xie Lishen sounded like a trapped beast
