The snowflakes were as big as goose feathers and fell in pieces.
Under the heavy snow, the pale pink-haired Wolper stretched out her hand, and a white snowflake fell on her palm. She looked at it for a long time, and then a cold voice came from behind her.
"It's so unusual to have snow in this month. Don't go back tonight. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Wolper asked, "Is that okay?"
White Carters put his hands on his hips: "Okay, don't run around on snowy days to prevent accidents."
Grab it. Grab it. Wolper hesitated: "But..."
"You still have three days, so you're not in a hurry to go back now, are you?"
That's right. The news from Rhodes Island is that she will leave Londinium in three days. She has been out for so long, and it is time to return to the temporary base.
Shuangye didn't think too much, followed Carters, and couldn't help but ask: "Is there such heavy snow over there in Usas?"
Heavy snowfall is so common in Ursus. Froststar, who has lived on the ice sheet for many years, has long been accustomed to heavy snowfall, and does not show surprise like the little fox.
"The heavy snow in Ursus is very cold. It doesn't require wind to freeze through. Few people go out when it snows. Once you fall into a snowdrift, it is dangerous. If you don't rescue in time, you will freeze to death until the snow melts." Only then will they be discovered.”
Shuangye puffed up her face, and White Rabbit said so unpleasantly, just to warn her not to run around in the snow.
Shuangxing looked at the falling snowflakes in the sky, with a touch of sadness in his tone: "I lost a friend on a snowy day, and it also snowed so heavily that day. If I could stop her in time, maybe what happened next would not be the same. It's going to happen."
"That's right, sorry."
"You did nothing wrong, no need to apologize."
Shuangxing didn't say anything more. The heavy snowfall today was really strange. It was impossible for it to snow in this season.
…
…
"My friend, what's wrong with you?"
After Zhou Jinru had rested for a few minutes, Edward came over to him with a serious expression and his tone did not sound like a question between friends.
Zhou Jinru's face was still pale. After taking the wound medicine provided by Jingzhe, his breath calmed down. Facing Edward's question, he smiled and said: "It was just a small trouble. It has been solved now. The regent was also present at the time."
嘘戅Fantasy 嘘戅. He didn't say what it was, but in Edward's ears it meant something else. It turned out to be an unpleasant incident with the Prince Regent.
The gentle man in front of him has a very special status. Even with Edward's status, he has to treat him as an equal. He has an irreconcilable conflict with the Prince Regent. It is normal for these two people to have some friction when they meet. Something happened.
After figuring this out, Edward felt that he had figured out the facts, but because of his identity, he couldn't say anything more.
"Zhou, don't let other things affect your mood. We still have a lot of time tonight, and there are some things you can't miss."
Indeed, Zhou Jinru glanced at the Shi Huaiya at hand. He wanted to give this girl a reassurance, and they would also jointly announce a big news.
"Thank you, Edward, I'm feeling much better."
It wasn't until Edward left that Shi Huaiya, who was standing next to him, asked, "Aguang, did you really have a conflict with the regent?"
He could clearly see the worried look in Little Tiger's eyes, but that was not the case. Zhou Jinru slowly shook his head and said: "No, we are facing a common enemy. You can't believe it, but he and I are actually facing the enemy side by side. "
A deep sea infiltrated Little Londinium, and the Prince Regent was almost assassinated. This news was absolutely explosive. Once it was made public, Victoria's face would be wiped out, so the lid must be tightly closed, and no information could be leaked.
Shi Huaiya couldn't think of what kind of enemy would make them join forces to fight, and she didn't want to think too much. It was the best thing that the doctor was fine.
"Did you dance with Jingzhe while I was away?"
Zhou Jinru's playfulness made Miss Feilin feel awkward for a while, and she stammered and explained: "I, I didn't want to, she forced me to do it, so many people were watching, it was so embarrassing!"
"Such a beautiful young lady, I would like to invite you to dance." Zhou Jinru stood up, leaned forward slightly, and stretched out his right hand, "What do you think?"
Miss Feilin's expression froze, she covered her mouth gently, her cheeks turned red: "What are you doing? If you want to dance, just say it. Why are you doing this?"
She complained, and obediently put her hand on Zhou Jinru's palm. The distance was so close that she could feel each other's breath.
This man's face is pale, and his breath is still a bit weak, but his waist is straight, his arms are strong, and his whole body exudes the charm of a mature man.
At such a close distance, Shi Huaiya's breathing became rapid, as if the air had become thicker, her cheeks were hot, and her mind was almost blank.
She had never had a similar experience, but she was very obsessed with it. Gradually, the initiative to dance fell into the hands of men, and she could only passively follow the rhythm.
The dance lasted only a few minutes, and Shi Huaiya followed behind in a daze. Time passed too fast, and before she could react, everything was over.
"Want to have another dance?"
The man smiled very hatefully. He had always been like this, deliberately teasing others, but he was so angry that he couldn't do anything about it.
Shi Huaiya puffed up her face: "What's the use of this? I can't get you."
She regretted the words as soon as she said them. Is it really appropriate to say such little girlish words on this occasion? But these are the truth. No matter how much she likes or wants, she can't be with the man in front of her. .
The smile on Zhou Jinru's face froze. He was silent for a few seconds and sighed silently: "You are only half right. I have a hunch that I will not choose anyone."
Is that so?
Shi Huaiya felt disappointed for a while, but also a little relaxed. Somehow, she asked: "Including Dr. Kelsi?"
That woman...
"I don't know, maybe, don't you think there is a deep gap between me and her?"
Shi Huaiya's question almost made Zhou Jinru spit out blood. Unexpectedly, in the little tiger's heart, the real opponent was the woman who played Riddler all day long.
He thought for a few seconds and realized that most of the operators might have a psychological shadow on Kelsey.
Zhou Jinru felt that he should correct his words a little: "I mean, Kelsey is a qualified boss, but sometimes she is too nagging. There is no other meaning."
real?
Shi Huaiya expressed doubts.
She looked at the wine glass in her hand, feeling unable to calm down for a long time. Maybe it was because she drank too much, but she actually asked the question that had been buried in her heart for a long time.
If these words reached Dr. Kelsey's ears, she would probably sit on the bench again.
However, she and the Doctor were comrades in the trenches, and the Doctor would never betray her.
Thinking of the question just now, Shi Huaiya couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She seemed to have missed an excellent opportunity. If she was given another chance, she would wait until the doctor tasted the lipstick before speaking out.
Ahhhh, what am I thinking? !
Zhou Jinru looked at Shi Huaiya. The little tiger's face was red, he covered his face, and his eyes were blank. His mood was a mixture of sadness, joy, and regret. It fully demonstrated what it means to be a woman with a needle in her heart. Can't guess.
"Are you all here?"
Jingzhe led Ye Yu from the other side. Ye Yu, who had taken off his shirt before, changed into a coat. He was feeling depressed. It seemed that it was a side effect of switching professions many times and overusing strength.
Zhou Jinru laughed: "My eldest nephew is here."
Ye Yu glared angrily: "Nonsense! I admit that you are somewhat capable, but this is not the reason for you to climb up your identity randomly!"
Jingzhe raised her eyebrows: "Shut up, what did you just tell me?!"
Zhou Jinru said unexpectedly: "What's going on?"
"He wants to chat with you for a few more words. He will return to Yan Kingdom tomorrow. If he doesn't say anything, he may not have the chance to say it in the future."
Now that Jingzhe has spoken, Zhou Jinru has no reason to refuse, and he also has questions to ask Ye Yu.
The two men walked aside, and it was Zhou Jinru who spoke first. Breaking the silence was a good basis for starting a conversation.
"We don't know each other even if we don't fight, Ye Yu, can you tell me now why you hate me?"
Zhou Jinru had always wanted to know this question, so he took it as the first question to open up the gap.
Ye Yu's expression was quite complicated. He subconsciously touched the watch on his left wrist, glanced at Zhou Jinru twice, and then turned away: "Because I have seen you in my dream."
This sentence may seem ambiguous to outsiders, but to Zhou Jinru's ears, it represents another message. Ye Yu possesses part of the memory from the dream world.
Zhou Jinru's expression became serious: "How long has it been since now?"
"I don't know, but it's definitely not now. I guess it will be in the next few years."
"Then what?"
"You died not long after. I heard you were assassinated by a traitor. You obviously had such a powerful plug-in, but you couldn't protect yourself."
Ye Yu's description is basically consistent with Ivanov's narrative, except that the time they experienced is different. They both experienced their own experiences after Zhou Jinru was assassinated, until they died and returned to the real world.
The difference is that Ivanov plans to go it alone, while Ye Yu chooses to kill Zhou Jinru...
Zhou Jinru asked again: "What will happen if you kill me? What do you want from me?"
If there is no direct hatred, asking a person to do a desperate thing is nothing more than an extremely attractive benefit.
"I don't know, but I think there may be a chance to get a second-level explorer from you, or something else. Now it seems that I thought too much. There is a reason why he chose you."
Second level explorer!
Zhou Jinru felt a wave of excitement in his heart. He had heard such a title several times, but he never understood what it meant.
He asked: "Why do you know about the second-order explorer?!"
"Because that person is a second-level explorer. He can use the power of Life Flame or above without any restrictions. It should be related to this title, but I feel wrong. You don't have the breath of the sun on your body. You are a lighthouse and a mountain, not the sun. .”
Of course Zhou Jinru knew that he was not the sun. His active skill was called Lighthouse. Ye Yu's words also confirmed this. He could not be the sun and had nothing to do with the gods on earth.
As for the lighthouse…
In the history of Terra, a lighthouse did appear, but that one lost his name like the god on earth. The lighthouse went out and disappeared into ashes, leaving nothing behind.
Ye Yu thought for a while and asked: "Why are you not even a life flame?"
"I don't understand what you mean by Mingyan. I'm not from the Yan country and don't understand this."
Ye Yu suddenly said: "That's not surprising. Even among the people of Yan country, not many people know about Mingyan."
He further explained that the so-called Life Flame, also known as Burning Soul, can further strengthen one's own strength and speed, but it consumes vitality.
"Mingyan is the superior level of Qi control. A person who can use Mingyan can only use it up to four times in his life. Every time he uses it, his vitality will be consumed. In theory, he will not live long after using it for the first three times. It may happen anytime and anywhere without warning. fell to the ground and died. For us, this is an honor. I don’t know if you have heard of defenders. Every defender is a life flame."
When Ye Yu talked about this, his eyes shone with light and his tone became brisk: "I admire those defenders the most. They are the guardians who stand at the junction of light and darkness. They cannot understand the Qi control of Mingyan. They will never be able to understand it." He cannot use the Life Flame, but once he becomes the Life Flame, it means that his life no longer belongs to him."
It sounds a bit weird, but maybe it is true. Zhou Jinru nodded secretly. Ye Yu was not a Mingyan, so he didn't know what it was like to enter the Mingyan.
"I have read some records. When entering the Life Flame state, the whole body will turn into transparent light, just like sunlight. I don't know what happens next."
Transparent light.
Zhou Jinru breathed out: "Thank you for your answer. When I have the opportunity, I will go to Yan Country and thank you again."
It seems that Life Flame is different from Liberation Power. After all, it sounds too scary to only be able to use it four times in a lifetime. Those defenders can indeed risk their lives to protect the people or things they want to protect.
After temporarily reaching a reconciliation, the atmosphere was no longer tense. After the two exchanged a few words, Ye Yu followed Jingzhe and left.
"Doctor, how was your chat?"
"It's okay. That Ye Yu is only twenty years old. No wonder Jingzhe needs to follow him all the way. Jingzhe seems to have another purpose in coming to Victoria. These Yanguo people are mysterious."
Shi Huaiya blinked and said to herself, Doctor, don't you usually call yourself a Yanguo person, why are you beginning to dislike Yanguo again now?
Zhou Jinru ate something casually to soothe his stomach. Edward reminded him before that there would be a big news to be announced tonight, most likely about the infected person observation group.
The fourth prince should have received some unexpected but important support for taking this matter so solemnly. It seems that he is concentrating on environmental protection as a drunkard.
"Doctor, it's snowing heavily outside."
"It started when I came in."
Zhou Jinru was really surprised when he learned from Jingzhe that the unknown gentleman was Suleiman, the diplomatic ambassador of Letania to Victoria.
