Luo Binhan lowered his head and glanced at his feet. He found that the black cat disappeared at some point.
"Okay," he said. He stared at the boy in front of him who looked like a high school student. The planet's dusk was a slightly turbid purple color, forming a thick shadow behind the boy. The dove statue stood awkwardly in the shadow, not looking like a "snitch" at all. Is Marin still in that building? Did he meet the deadly violinist?
He wanted to retreat, turn around, find an excuse to slip away. But that was meaningless. Jing Huang had told him long ago that it was meaningless. It was a stupid idea, and he quickly gave up, mentally cursing Snitch and Marlin. Snitch, cunning snitch, who knows it could be a pigeon
"You are not what I thought." Luo Binhan said calmly.
Zhou Wenxing, a young man who calls himself "Frozen", still smiles politely and amiably, with a hint of troubled manner. He asked: "So, what do you imagine me to be like?"
"Well, I heard you look like an acquaintance of mine."
"It's what Xuan Hongzhi Jade said."
Zhou Wenxing asked naturally. Of course he knows about Jing Huang, and maybe he also knows about Silence and Yaleriga. Luo Binhan acquiesced, recalling the story about "freezing" in his mind. A murderer, a star criminal, and a wolf. And Luo Binhan had the idea that he was someone's younger brother in a hurry.
These facts cannot be judged from Zhou Wenxing's appearance. If he were in Luo Binhan's hometown, Lihai City, he would meet countless high school boys with a similar sense of déjà vu on the roads near the school district every evening, or male college students who have not yet reached their junior year. That's not just because of his youthful appearance, or the fact that he pretends to be harmless.
Unlike Jing Huang, who never concealed his alien temperament, Zhou Wenxing only made Luo Binhan feel ordinary and familiar. "We are the same kind that can be understood." The young man expressed such a temperament. Even the cat people in the square were not wary of him.
Luo Binhan started to feel a little confused. If Zhou Wenxing took out his heart the next second, it wouldn't seem strange at all. But at this moment, he didn't feel that this human wolf was planning to do this. He couldn't tell whether the other party was really a human wolf. Zhou Wenxing's hairstyle is also quite similar to that of a contemporary male high school student, with short bangs that do not cover his eyebrows, and the tips of his temple hair just blocking the top of his ears. There seems to be no canine teeth or animal hair. His hair is jet black and his pupils are dark brown without any sign of dyeing. If Luo Binhan's sister could dress up as well as him, Luo Binhan would even go to the street and sing an endless song of "Pan Prenci" in public.
"Please don't look at me with such strange eyes." Zhou Wenxing said calmly, "I can basically imagine how Xuan Hongzhi Jade evaluates me. From his standpoint, it is a matter of course, because I He is the one who colluded with Wu Yuan's fugitive. With his emotional attitude towards the Death Order Sect, it would not be surprising even if he breaks the rules and kills me. Of course, he can't do it now, so I can stand here. . Although it’s hard to be trusted by others, I actually don’t have any malicious intentions. I just wanted to come and take a look out of curiosity.”
"Okay," Luo Binhan said, "I can take you to the boat to have a look."
"No need. I don't want to experience the defense system of that kind of assassin ship."
Zhou Wenxing smiled in annoyance, shook the piano bag behind him slightly and said, "You are mistaken. It's not the ship I'm curious about, it's just you."
Luo Binhan thought he heard wrongly. But Zhou Wenxing nodded firmly, with an expression on his face that seemed to say, "Look, I know you won't believe it."
"It's true. Because, well, how can I put it, our positions are slightly similar, so don't worry, I don't mean to be disadvantageous to you. After all, I will not kill anyone who is unwilling to die."
As if to prove his statement, Zhou Wenxing turned and walked towards the fountain in the center of the square. His movements were completely relaxed and he stepped forward without looking back, which surprised Luo Binhan. This is obviously an excellent or perhaps last chance to escape, but it is also very likely a trap. Luo Binhan was a little undecided.
Zhou Wenxing stood by the fountain, turned around and said, "Are you really not interested at all?"
"What?" Luo Binhan couldn't help blurting out. He found that he seemed to be a little unable to control his irritability.
"About the White River Curse." Zhou Wenxing said. There was a strange and understanding smile on his face, which seemed very friendly, but Luo Binhan felt a sense of disgust.
Curse of the White River. Of course Luo Binhan remembered this word even though it had nothing to do with him.
His body automatically stepped forward. It doesn't matter, he told himself, if "Freeze" wanted to kill him, he couldn't escape this distance.
In this case, it’s okay to listen to what the other person has to say. As long as he delayed it long enough, he would always find a chance to escape.
He came to the hot spring, and his own reflection appeared in the water waves, looking stiff and strange. It was as if he realized for the first time that his appearance looked strange from certain angles. Could this be the reason why he had no luck with the opposite sex when he was a student?
"Freeze" stood half a meter away from him. They looked at the pool together like a pair of close friends.
"Did you hear the song just now?" Zhou Wenxing said, "The name of that song is Zhuigong the Dragon Slayer, and it is a folk song widely circulated in Albicos. Of course, the original lyrics are not like this. But a girl translated it into your language, and I thought it would be nice to sing it again according to this rhyme. As for the song, because I don’t seem to have any talent in music, I just composed it briefly. Ah, I learned I’ve been playing the guitar for almost three years, but I’m still not very good at playing it. Of course I can’t compare with my brother. After all, I was only interested in medicine before.”
Luo Binhan's fingers in his pocket flicked involuntarily. He remembered that Yaleriga's scimitar was still hanging on the inside of his coat.
"What do you think of this song?" Zhou Wenxing asked.
"I don't feel anything." Luo Binhan said. He took few music lessons seriously.
Zhou Wenxing didn't mind at all and said: "It's just that I don't play well. The original song is very popular in Albikos, but it can't be played near the royal court. If my brother hears it, he will die."
Luo Binhan couldn't help but glance at his reflection.
"They would be dragged to the square of Narensev and beheaded in public. There must have been at least several thousand people executed by my brother for this kind of thing during the Blood Mist Era. After all, it was a song written to satirize my brother from the beginning. Characters such as knight captains and butlers can probably be accommodating. He will not allow his enemies to sing this song. You should understand the feeling of ancient tyrants. Although my brother likes to cover up and lie, in essence He is also a very stingy person. It will be troublesome if he holds a grudge."
Zhou Wenxing laughed happily as he spoke.
"It's true. He doesn't want to suffer at all. He was obviously very easy to talk to when we were in our hometown in Chi County. Looking back now, it is true that our personalities changed during the same time period. But I don't think so. What does that have to do with the curse? It's just that my brother's true nature has been exposed. As for him, after all, he is the child of a witch and a murderer. It's not surprising that he will do anything. For example, like the song I just sang. That’s right. It scared everyone at the time. But Andreltey is probably an exception. That person wouldn’t be worried even if the sky fell.”
He spoke in a brisk tone and at a medium speed, as if he was chatting with an acquaintance without starting or ending. Luo Binhan couldn't help but be a little confused, unable to keep up with his jumping thoughts. He had some doubts that it was a typical perverted murderer's thinking.
"It refers to the story behind that song." Zhou Wenxing said, "That song tells the story of him committing a felony that triggered the curse, that is, he killed his father with his own hands."
