As the car slowly stopped for the first time, it was time to say goodbye. It was obvious that Yao Shunyu had deep feelings for Fatty. After all, it was the latter who snatched his life back from the hanged man.
"Brother Wang, Brother Jiang, and...and this gentleman in black, thank you for your kindness. We will see you later." Before getting off the bus, Yao, Shun, Yu and Li Bai all left their contact information and promised that whenever Jiang Cheng and the others need help, Feel free to contact them anytime.
Yao, Shun, and Yu were lone wolves, but there was obviously a force behind Li Bai supporting her. Jiang Cheng was very interested in the latter's ability to collect intelligence.
Li Bai hesitated for a moment and reminded Jiang Cheng: "You have been targeted by the Night Watch. In our world, there are very few things they want to do that they cannot do, so please be careful."
"Although it seems that the Night Watch is the only one family for the time being, there are many forces that are not dealing with them behind the scenes. You have many potential allies, and..." After a pause, Li Bai's expression became wary,
"And I can tell you one more thing. The country is also extremely dissatisfied with some of the actions of the Night Watch. I have reliable information. I believe it won't be long before the former will take action against the Night Watch. In fact, the two have been secretly talking to each other several times now. In a confrontation, there will be victory or defeat for each other. Now all the forces are waiting and waiting. Once the first shot is fired, it will trigger countless chain reactions, so the situation is not bad for you." Jiang Cheng has always speculated It was gradually becoming a reality. He looked at Li Bai's face.
"So... Miss Li Bai is a member of the country?" Li Bai seemed to be resistant to this question, and did not give a clear answer.
"Sorry, I can't answer this question for you. It's my responsibility. You know, I don't want to... don't want to deceive you with prepared lies."
"I understand." Jiang Cheng didn't make it difficult for her and waved to the two of them.
"You two, see you later."
"See you later." Soon after Li Baiyao and Shunyu got off the bus, as the bus slowly stopped again, Jiang Cheng and others finally arrived home. After getting off the bus, they saw the familiar street scene. It seemed that everything in the past few days was... A dream.
Wu walked in front of Fatty Jiang Cheng, and his figure flickered and disappeared instantly. When Jiang Cheng and the two walked to the door of the studio, the door was pushed open from the inside, and Wu stood behind the door with an expressionless face.
The disappearance of Dahe Empress and others also sounded the alarm for them. Knowing that Wu was worried about an ambush inside, he stepped in to check around before them. Thinking of what the newspaper man said, the fat man couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In their eyes, Wu was no longer that scary and weird, but Their brothers, those guys who have spent their whole lives trying to control the strange door, never imagined that there would be such a way for the host to coexist with the strangeness inside the door.
Returning to a familiar place, the string that had always been tight was loosened a little. After struggling for so many days, Jiangcheng Fatty consumed a lot of energy. He simply tidied up and went to sleep. Anyway, whether there was a night watch or not, he went out. No mistakes.
Lying on the mattress, Jiang Cheng couldn't fall asleep for a long time. Finally he opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. The scenes from the mission flashed through his mind like a slideshow.
The newspaper man said that he was incomplete and that there was another part in the fat man's body. He also said that these were all done by himself, his former self.
In Jiang Cheng's opinion, the newspaper man did not lie to him, and Fatty's various performances during the mission also convinced Jiang Cheng that there was indeed another self in him.
But as to why and what the consequences would be, he didn't know. He didn't dare to ask. Because he had a feeling in the dark that after getting the result, he would lose Fatty forever.
If the price of asking for the result is so expensive, then he would rather never know. In fact, it is very good now. When he takes Huaiyi and the others out of the car in the future, the brothers will be reunited. In the face of these, the so-called truth does not mean much to Jiang Cheng. Meaning, he just hopes that everyone can survive and live well.
Unknowingly, the face of Empress Dahe appeared in Jiang Cheng's mind again. Jiang Cheng wanted to use the words "Empress Dahe" to describe her instead of Wu Yingying, because Jiang Cheng felt that it was more formal, and more formality often means more formality. There is a sense of distance.
Regarding Empress Dahe, Jiang Cheng's heart was complicated. After all, in his original concept, it was the paper man Lu Jianli who owed Empress Dahe, not him. However, the newspaper man's words changed everything. He said that he had owed Empress Dahe a long time ago. I have seen myself before, when my name was Lu Jianli. He was a terrifyingly pure guy.
So...he is Lu Jianli. His mind was in chaos, and countless threads were entangled in it, like a spider web, tightly binding his whole body, strangling him until he couldn't breathe.
As his understanding of himself gradually disintegrated, Jiang Cheng suddenly felt that his current self was somewhat similar to the missing female student from Jiangtan University. The girl had lost several personalities, and so had he. They were both trying to put the forgotten or lost That one, or even those few, were found by themselves and put back together into a whole.
But they never thought, neither of them ever thought, that maybe the one who had been pieced together again and thought he was complete was the most terrifying monster.
With doubts, unwillingness, and fear, Jiang Cheng slowly closed his eyes. Soon after Jiang Cheng's breathing stabilized, the fat man sleeping on the sofa outside the bedroom slowly opened his eyes. He turned his eyes and looked to his side. A black figure stood in the corner two meters away from him.
Wu stared at him coldly, his eyes full of edge. But this time, the fat man was not afraid. He smiled, opened the quilt and sat up, then pointed to the bedroom where the doctor slept. After all, the bedroom door was still open.
No movement could be seen. The door handle seemed to be dragged by a force, and the door was slowly closed, tightly, without making any sound.
"Why...are you coming back?" Wu stared at him, his gaze as sharp as if he wanted to drill two holes in the fat man's body.
The fat man stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and said with a playful smile: "Isn't it because I can't bear to leave you and the doctor? I know your strength, but I can't trust him, doctor. You also know that although he looks smart, he is petty. This is his fault." Weakness, only when I am by his side can..."
"A person like you will only hold us back if you stay, don't you know? Do you think you can help us by staying? Do you think we will be grateful to you? That child is much more useful than you!"
"You will only die in vain if you stay, don't you understand?" The fat man was stunned, not only because of Wu's emotions, but also because he had never thought that Wu could say so many words at once. This cold persona collapsed.
