A few dozen meters away from Onowell, inside a tent.
Cao Xin, who had lost his legs, was lying on the bed and said in despair, "Where are the legs?"
Cao Hong sat by his bed with a grimace: "Brother, my leg is in the freezer. There have been too many cases to see the doctor in the past two days, and there is no queue. How about we find a hospital first..."
"No, I'm scared. Just wait for the doctor."
"Yeah." Cao Hong fell silent.
Cao Xin took a breath and said weakly: "Cao Hong, I still can't figure it out. The confidentiality work is so good, how could our plan be leaked..."
Cao Hong couldn't help it anymore and whispered: "Brother, after I had a meeting with you that day, I went to meet the president."
"………………ah?"
"On the day of the carnival, when I saw the president take action, I completely understood that we don't have the strength to participate in this matter." Cao Hong said bitterly, "No matter how hard you say, you can make do with it if you are locked up in the sky. If you lose your life, you will have nothing. Already."
A tall man wearing a school uniform and a long knife lowered his head and entered the tent and sat down beside Cao Xin's bed.
The president held an apple in his hand and gnawed it.
"Cao Hong said at that time, please let me save your life." The president said cheerfully, "I said you are a young boy, why are you thinking so much about fighting and killing, so you are so violent? When students fight, they always act out. It won’t kill anyone.”
Cao Xin looked at Chi Zijing blankly, and then at his silent brother.
He thought back on a series of things that had happened in the past two weeks, and recalled his angry words last night. Thinking of his jealousy towards the disasters, and then looking at how the president next to him treated him...
Cao Xin's eye circles turned red. He closed his eyes hard to prevent himself from crying. He only choked and said: "President..."
Chi Zijing finished the apple and patted his hand.
"Cao Xin, you have always been very capable in organizing activities, so I feel free to ask you to do it. I am so honest and lazy! Our mutual aid association will also hold a New Year party, a winter vacation ice and snow festival, and start school volunteers. Activities, if you are not here, how can we do it alone?"
"President...!" Cao Xin couldn't hold back his tears and cried bitterly: "I, I will do it well! I will do my best to do it!!"
Chi Zijing said no more, just smiled gently, got up and walked outside the tent.
The sun hangs high in the sky, and the rain from last night has long disappeared. Chi Zijing stretched himself and said leisurely, "Another day in a good mood!"
"Who says it isn't?" A voice replied equally leisurely. Chi Zijing's whole body trembled, and his eyes slowly turned to the right, just in time to meet Qin An's smiling face.
"Ah! Who are you? You got the wrong person. I don't know you!"
Chi Zijing ran away, but Qin An grabbed him by the collar and said, "Nonsense!"
Chi Zijing shrank his head and said shamelessly: "Teacher, when did you come? Yes, I miss you too."
"You kid..." Qin An sighed, "Zijing, I've suffered so much for you these years."
"Why bother? If I fish in troubled waters here, my life will be a hundred times happier than in the imperial capital. You must not take me back."
"If you really want to be lazy, why do you need to join this mutual aid group?"
Chi Zijing said with a smile: "Teacher, you don't know something. This mutual aid association was started by a few friends of mine, and I was just an honorary president to support the situation. Besides, our mutual aid association does not strive for profit. Seizing power is just to provide students with a place to huddle together and keep warm, and to add a relaxed atmosphere to the city. A small number of people fight and kill, which has nothing to do with my original intention."
Qin An thought for a while and couldn't help but sigh: "You did the right thing in this matter."
The City of Sky really needs some relaxing atmosphere. If every moment is as chilling and depressing as last night, how can ordinary dragons maintain a stable state of mind?
"Then I'll go home and rest..."
Qin An smiled bitterly and grabbed the president who was about to run away.
"There will be a day when you have to go back. You are like this, and so are everyone in this city..." Qin
An looked at the clear sky, "The City of Sky is just a trade-off. The number of dragon species is increasing, and the day of change will come."
Chi Zijing's expression also became serious.
"Yes, there will always be a day." He tapped the hilt of his knife, "But I always hope that that day will come later. Let us superpowers live a more happy life. , face that abominable fate when you have no choice but to do so.”
"Zijing, there is no way to escape what is coming."
"If I can postpone that day by one day, I can enjoy my life for one more day." Chi Zijing smiled playfully, "If I can rest for one more day, isn't this the real use of escaping?"
After saying this, he laughed and walked among the students. Qin An looked at his back helplessly, wanted to say something, and then smiled with relief.
Why bother meddling? Young people always have their own ideas, let them do it.

Inside the Central United University, Mo Yuankai’s villa,
Mo Yuankai and Gongsun Ce sat side by side on the sofa, looking serious.
"Ah Ce, this house is too ostentatious now. I plan to move to Dingyi District later." Mo Yuankai swayed a bottle of Coke in his hand, "I think I can still find a way to shine. You think so? How's the intelligence work?"
"Very possible, very suitable." Gongsun Ce said seriously.
"Then I will assist you when you go on missions."
"You're kidding, who's assisting whom? You give me the mission and I'll help with the errands."
"They're not all the same." Mo Yuankai took a sip of Coke, "I agreed, don't be too stressed, and you can rest at any time. Your own life is the most important thing."
"You're kidding, I'm not a messenger of justice like you. I don't bother to care about small troubles. Even if someone does ask for help in my face, I pretend not to see it."
"I believe you are the only one who has ghosts." Mo Yuankai smiled strangely, "Hey, what are you thinking about? Are you so absent-minded?"
Gongsun Ce held his hands in confusion and said hesitantly: "I came back to my senses today and thought about it, and I felt that...the words I said when I was unconscious yesterday...could it be...a bit misleading? "
Mo Yuankai choked on his Coke. He coughed hard for a while and said strangely: "It is indeed, so easy to be misunderstood!"
"Damn it, I'm a little panicked, so tell me, am I..."
"Yes, do you need to think of a way to "explain" and "explain" to Miss Qin first? Mo Yuankai couldn't stop laughing, "Go. Go quickly. Go now!"
Gongsun Ce ran out the door with a frown on his face and rushed to his apartment.

Dong dong dong, Qin Qianbai was woken up by the sound of knocking on the door.
She got up from the bed and thought seriously for a few seconds before remembering that the battle last night was over. After receiving treatment from the doctor, she went back to the apartment with Gongsun Ce to rest.
"coming."
She put on her coat, opened the door, and as expected saw the gray-haired boy.
Qin Qianbai felt a little strange. She thought about it and realized that this seemed to be the first time Gongsun Ce came to her.
"Gongsun Ce got up so early today."
Gongsun Ce looked at her speechlessly. Qin Qianbai tilted his head: "?"
"It's already half past ten, miss. I came here at eight o'clock and knocked on the door for a long time but you didn't wake up, which made me almost break in and think you were plotted."
I left the door after confirming it was safe through telekinesis... There was no need to tell her such small details. You will definitely be scolded.
"Ah." Qin Qianbai said blankly.
"Ah, what do you mean?"
"over slept."
"It doesn't count. It's normal to sleep in after fighting for so long..." Gongsun Ce stuttered, "That's right, Miss, what should I say about those last words last night... …”
"..."
Qin Qianbai's face seemed to turn red.
No, that’s not good! for
What makes you blush! ! Isn’t this simply misunderstood? ! !
"Don't get me wrong! Those words mean that I will definitely protect you!" Gongsun Ce said in a panic, "Because I didn't protect you well last night and you were hurt. I regret it, so I will definitely protect you in the future. Such meaning!" "
"..."
Why is her face even redder? Please don't blush expressionlessly! !
"Well, anyway! I mean!"
The eldest lady poked him with her elbow.
"I want to fight on my own. I am not someone who needs Ate's protection."
"No, this has nothing to do with combat power. Should I say it is a responsibility or an obligation... Sigh..."
Gongsun Ce made up his mind that she would never be allowed to participate in these messy battles in the future.
This has nothing to do with whether the combat ability is strong enough. The promise made out must be fulfilled. Even if the giant dragon comes, he will deal with it alone and never let Qin Qianbai be involved in danger.
"unclear meaning."
"Anyway, as long as you understand. Okay, let's go."
"What are you going to do?"
"Let's go to eldest brother's house for lunch...and then you can do whatever you want!"
Qin Qianbai looked up at him and poked him with her elbow.
"What does Gongsun Ce want to do?"
"me……"
I really couldn’t tell for a while. There seems to be a lot to do and not much to do.
This is a feeling I have never had before. After what happened last night, Gongsun Ce felt that he was indeed a little different. There are some intangible things on his shoulders...the promises to his elder brother, the promises to Qin An, the promises to Qin Qianbai, those responsibilities and obligations that had nothing to do with him in the past, after he made his own choice, he took the initiative to shoulder them .
For the first time in his life, he, who had been playing second fiddle, took the initiative to take the stage because of his enthusiasm. Saying goodbye to the clown show that I was best at, I was embarrassed, young, and like a newly debuted actor, playing an unattractive third-rate protagonist.
If his life was truly a drama…
Then this night may be the turning point in this drama.
My body seems to be heavier than before, but my feet don't feel like I'm floating in the fog. I feel down to earth.
Maybe it's an illusion. The weather outside the window is still hot, and the cicadas on the trees are still noisy. There seems to be no change at the end of this summer, but people's mood has shifted more or less.
"What to do..."
For a while, I didn’t think of anything I had to do. Gongsun Ce looked into the eyes of the girl next to him and speculated on her thoughts.
As in the past, he could not read any useful information from Qin Qianbai's face. However, at this time, he really thought of something he wanted to do, something he had to do.
"Let me tell you, Miss." Gongsun Ce cleared his throat, "How should I put it, although the beginning was very disastrous, I think our current relationship is pretty good, that is..."
Why are you acting clumsy again? Why do I never think of those beautiful speeches every time I talk to her?
Gongsun Ce stuttered and said as if he was trying to show off his strength: "I feel like calling me by my name all the time would be a bit unfamiliar... Do you want to change your title?"
The girl blinked, thought for a while, and said, "Gongsun?"
"Sounds like the kind of title a cold handsome guy would use."
"Policy?"
"I beg you please don't."
"What about Ace?"
This is a title that only my eldest brother and my parents use.
However, it sounds quite friendly.
"It's not impossible..."
Qin Qianbai grabbed his hand.
"Then, Ace will be my servant from now on."
"Mr. Gongsun, my status suddenly dropped?!" "Because I am the eldest lady." "That's not the logic!" "
pet. "Not even people!" "Vehicles." "Out of the range of organic matter!!"
After talking like idiots, the boy and girl walked out of the door and faced the hot summer.
At some point, the young man's eyes lit up again.
This summer is about to end and a new season is about to begin.
That will be a new life.
No more standing still, no more standing still. Although slight, changes will eventually occur.
You may be embarrassed, you may be extremely tired, but you must shoulder the responsibility and muster the courage.
Together with my acquaintances, together with this wonderful girl...
Facing the unknown tomorrow with a new attitude.
