"Shua la la——"
The raindrops hitting the pane sounded like tinkling piano.
It gets smaller and smaller as it goes lower, and a bit of blood-red sunlight is faintly visible in the distance.
People were slowly standing up from the glow, and their hunched bodies began to straighten. As the interview vehicles drove in one after another and the cameras flashed, the long rainy season was coming to an end.
In a cafe on the edge of the city, there was the sound of clinking porcelain cups.
"Su Xiaobai, Wang Mingming, Han Han, Shang Qi. You have done a great job, especially you, Su Xiaobai. You dared to be the first to stand up in front of the camera and inspired the residents behind you. You are very brave. ." The red-haired man held the porcelain cup. There is a bright red ring on his right index finger, which is the logo of the City Guardian Department.
He is Li Yuxuan from the City Guard Department. After learning about what happened here, he came specially to explain to Su Xiaobai.
"I just..." Su Mingan clasped his hands together and said calmly: "I don't want to see the 'silent majority' again."
Li Yuxuan looked at Su Mingan and said with emotion: "Your sharp eyes remind me of a young man I once came into contact with. He is from Daoyacheng like you, and his name is Su Wensheng. I thought he could become a good prospect, but it's a pity. He...well, forget it, just don't mention it."
Su Mingan said nothing.
"Anyway, congratulations to everyone." Li Yuxuan smiled and said: "You have not only completed your own tasks, but also completed the long-delayed task of the Ministry of Guardian to 'promote the coalition government to thoroughly investigate the Ark Project'. Congratulations."
Su Mingan heard the system sound:
…
"Ding dong!"
[Perfect clearance mission·The fourth link: "Participate in the internship of the Urban Guardian Department" has been completed. 】
[Perfect clearance progress: 45%]
…
[Since you have completed the four-ring mission (there are eight ring missions in total), you can check the progress of each TE line. 】
…
"Check." Su Mingan said.
The next moment, a blue panel appeared in front of him.
…
[TE1·(Successfully Destroyed the World) Perfect Clearance Progress: 80%]
[TE2·(Achieve the highest level within twenty days) perfect clearance progress: 10%]
[TE3 · (Arrived at the final land of the past and established an ideal hometown) Perfect clearance progress: 45%]
[TE4·(Bring the favorability of "Su Luoluo" to 100 points - you need to go through all the plots with her, and you cannot use the skills of the person in power to forcibly increase the favorability) Perfect clearance progress: 50%]
[TE5·(Help "Li Mingyue" establish a complete rule system) Perfect clearance progress: 30%]
[TE6·(Within twenty days, "Chaoyan" will not die) perfect clearance progress: 0%]
[TE7 · (Become a civil servant and build a beautiful family of four) Perfect clearance progress: 0%]
…
Su Mingan was slightly surprised.
He originally thought he was still in the early stages - but it turned out that TE1 was already 80%.
But he took TE3, and he had never done other routes. For example, the key figure of TE4 Su Luoluo, the key figure of TE5 Li Mingyue, and the key figure of TE6 Chaoyan, he has not understood them in depth.
And this outrageous TE7... When he and Li Mingyue were distributing relief supplies, this line had reached 30%, but since the moment he walked out of the small town, the progress instantly dropped to 0% and never increased again. . There is probably no possibility of taking this route.
Now it seems that it is more appropriate to continue to promote TE3. The next step is to find a way to contact the prophetic stone wall of the old Holy See. At the same time, he participated in the first ruins of the night, lifted the seal on himself, and turned into a big white tentacled ball.
Feeling at peace, Su Mingan took a sip of coffee.
The drizzle pattered outside the window, gradually disappearing into silence. He looked at the faint glow in the distance, and a few inches of light penetrated his eyes.
"Sunny days are always beautiful." Li Yuxuan looked at this scene and said with emotion.
Han Han lowered his head in frustration: "But Grandma Lin will not come back again. Some high-ranking people still don't know how to repent. Our power is only a very small part. If the first dream patrolman hadn't paid attention to the Black Mist Disease, we would have He may even be cut off from his official career by Vice Mayor Liu."
Li Yuxuan took a sip of coffee, and the glazed lamp on the ceiling reflected his flaming pupils. From the first time he met Li Yuxuan, Su Mingan felt that he looked like a living flame.
"Look." Li Yuxuan said suddenly.
He turned his head and looked out the window, and a few rays of sunlight seemed to complement each other.
Wang Mingming and Han Han followed his line of sight. People outside the window were snuggling towards the relief point, their shadows stretched very long.
"Today's glow is beautiful. It's almost March, and the spring wind must be very warm. Although there are few real flowers and trees here, there are always some." Li Yuxuan said:
"The softness of the petals is heart-warming, and the green of the leaves is eye-catching. If you walk by the lake, you can feel the moist air and maybe see some butterflies. These little things make me feel very soft."
"When the sun shines down, you feel as if you are being embraced by something warm. And the most beautiful thing is the dawn in the morning. The golden light lights up little by little from the dark night. When you look at this scene, I can feel that I actually love this world.”
He took a sip of coffee and said:
"Then what?"
"Why don't you persist because the night is too dark? Why don't you stop looking because you think you can't see the dawn?"
"Why should you give up your character because of the garbage in this world? Why should you be willing to sink with the sludge? Why should you fall asleep before dawn? Some people are disgusting, but their descendants may not necessarily. Save them to see To the prosperous age of the future, in order to see a world full of laughter.”
"If you watch the illusory spring die and think that it will become real in the future, your heart will be sweet. If you can imagine that you are a ball of flame, then as long as you exist for one day, this harsh winter will be warmer, even if Just a little bit."
"It is with this idea that I have been working hard for the justice in my heart until now. I think at least some people need to persist and some people need to speak out...I am waiting for a spring."
……spring.
Hearing this word, Su Mingan's heart seemed to be hit by something.
He stared at the mechanical ring on his finger, looked at the ring of time, and finally looked at his watch.
All of them have been associated with "spring".
"Wang Mingming, Han Han, Shang Qi, can you go out for a while? Su Xiaobai and I have a word." Li Yuxuan said suddenly.
The three of them looked at each other and nodded. They knew that Su Xiaobai performed well this time and should receive special rewards.
After the three of them went out, Li Yuxuan placed a small daisy pendant on the table.
"Su Wensheng." Li Yuxuan said.
Su Ming'an was greatly shocked, but his expression did not waver in the slightest. He just looked at Li Yuxuan doubtfully.
"There's no need to pretend. The information that the Holy See forged for you in the old days was very strict, but it couldn't be hidden from my eyes. You are Su Wensheng. I just tested you, and I think I guessed it right." Li Yuxuan said.
"I'm not." Su Mingan said.
Li Yuxuan didn't care, just pointed at the small daisy pendant with her finger: "You are the person recommended by Bishop Li. Even if you reveal that you are a heterogeneous species during the college entrance examination, I won't care. I believe you. This is what I have investigated so far. I hope you can save all the clues about the 'Ark Project' for me."
Su Mingan opened the interlayer of the Daisy Necklace with a click, and there was a micro USB flash drive inside. He moved his gaze upwards to look at Li Yuxuan, and met his orange pupils.
"Why did you give it to me?" Su Mingan knew that this thing was very precious.
Su Mingan checked Li Yuxuan's resume. As a member of the Urban Guardian Department, Li Yuxuan spent all his time investigating the "Ark Project". Even Li Yuxuan's family, including his father, mother, sister, and the older generation, are trying to trace history. They want to know what happened hundreds of years ago. They are going against the times.
This family has dedicated their life's work to clearing away the haze for mankind.
"Su Wensheng." Li Yuxuan said: "You could have had a peaceful, happy, and calm life. Bishop Li was enough to protect you throughout your life, but you chose to participate in these things. I believe in your determination to trace history. I ask you to help me." These data will be preserved.”
His pupils had been staring at Su Ming'an gently, but he could feel a blazing heat for no reason.
"You..." Su Ming'an suddenly heard something was wrong, and his tone... was almost like Tuogu's tone.
Li Yuxuan's fingers moved slightly, and then a panel was pushed to Su Mingan's eyes.
…
[Name: Li Yuxuan
Age: 22 years old
Expected life span: 22 years
Cause of death: Killed by Su Wensheng. 】
…
Su Mingan looked at the panel, his pupils narrowed.
"The gods will arrange the ending of death for everyone. On a certain day in life, people can see when they will die. Just like when Yefute was killed by a steel frame, she obeyed her fate." Li Yuxuan's The smile was a little bitter: "I never knew how I would die. Until today, I suddenly found that my death ending finally appeared on my information panel..."
"I won't kill you." Su Mingan felt baffled. There is no conflict between him and Li Yuxuan.
"I don't believe it either. I'll leave everything I investigated to you. There won't be any conflict between the two of us." Li Yuxuan said seriously: "However, the arrangements of the gods often come true. Even if someone wants to escape his own death In the end, he won’t live long.”
He tilted his head slightly and looked at the glow outside the window, his eyes full of nostalgia:
"So... let's make a bet, Su Xiaobai... no, Su Wensheng."
"What bet?"
Li Yuxuan leaned forward slightly and looked directly at Su Ming'an: "Bet... we will make this arrangement of the gods invalid. If I am not killed by you, then I win. If I am really killed by you one day, then it doesn't matter. I lost."
Su Mingan said: "Then you have to live well."
Although he didn't get along with Li Yuxuan much, Su Mingan could feel that he was also an idealist. Just because you believe that spring will come, you can devote your life to it.
"My parents are still waiting for me to get married. How could I die so early... Uh-huh." Before Li Yuxuan could finish speaking, Su Mingan threw a sugar cube to silence her.
He has seen too many flags and cannot raise them anymore.
After putting away the daisy necklace, they left the cafe. Li Yuxuan looked up at the growing glow. The rain hid in the clouds, and was replaced by the glow. Balls of bright red colors condensed in the sky, as if there were There really is a dwelling place for gods.
The red-haired young man raised his head like this, looking at this glorious scene almost greedily, as if he wanted to engrave this scene in his eyes forever.
People living in this gloomy land long for such a warm and sunny day.
People whose throats were strangled and their eyes covered longed for light to enter their eyes.
"No one knows what will happen when the ruins are opened for the first time today and how many casualties there will be." Li Yuxuan turned around and smiled: "If I never come back, all the information I have investigated so far will be in the daisy necklace. please."
Just as Su Ming'an was about to reply, he saw Li Yuxuan take a step forward, his figure escaping into the light, and with the smell of burning talismans, he left.
He didn't give Su Ming'an a chance to stay, so he left extremely decisively, and he didn't give himself a chance to regret.
Su Mingan clenched her daisy necklace, making jingling sounds.
…
Under the iron-gray building, a small golden flag fluttered.
A VIP car stopped at the door of the building, the waiter opened the door respectfully, and the black-haired young man came out.
"The First Dream Patrol Home, this was the laboratory of Su Wensheng's mother Su Lixian. She was away from home all year round, and this was more like her real home. She stayed here for many years until she committed a 'crime against humanity'—— She secretly destroyed the special medicine for black fog disease, which led to the stagnation of research, and she was the source of everything." Bivis introduced.
Shadow raised his head.
The iron-gray building is like a cylindrical chimney rising from the ground... no, more like an iron-gray lighthouse, tall and slender. Although the windows at the top have no lights, they reflect the blood color of the setting sun.
Su Wensheng's mother stayed here for more than ten years.
"Your Highness, is it okay to show this place to the First Dream Patroller?" A man who looked like a waiter whispered beside Bevis.
Bivis said calmly: "Su Li has been dead for many years, and her house has been ransacked a long time ago. Moreover, she did secretly destroy the special medicine for black fog disease, and we did not accuse her unjustly. Since the First Dream Patrol wants to investigate , then let him check it. It will be twelve o'clock in a few hours, and he will definitely go to the ruins by then."
Beavis really couldn't do anything to defeat the No. 1 Dream Patroller. If he refuses to investigate, the No. 1 Dream Patrolman will take a camera and shoot his face wildly, taking various hideous death angles. Then the Internet will start to curse Beavis, saying that he must have concealed something shady. thing.
The strongest weapon of the No. 1 Dream Patrolman is not his own strength at all, but the attention of the entire world gathered on him. No matter how powerful the magic weapon is, it can't compare to the camera he carries.
"Click."
Shadow pushed open the door and entered.
