"Master Xu, although Gu Yuan was forced to kill Xu Rulong and Xu Qingniao in self-defense, he did kill people after all. As a member of the Demon Division of Star Town, I should come to apologize. Master Xu, are you willing? Do you forgive this young and careless child?"
"I……"
"Master Xu, in my opinion, even if Gu Yuan has 10,000 reasons, he can't just let it go, but I still sincerely hope you can forgive him, okay?"
"You... ahem, Captain Li, I forgive him, can you move your feet away?" Blood spilled from the corner of Xu Dongsheng's mouth, his face was extremely pale, and his body was shaking.
Hearing this, Li Siming nodded slightly, slowly moved away the foot that was stepping on Xu Dongsheng, and turned to look at Su Xiaotang.
"Look, let me tell you, the head of the Xu family is reasonable. As long as he knows what happened, he will definitely forgive Gu Yuan."
"Well, Master Xu... he is so kind." Su Xiaotang sniffed, "I was almost moved to tears."
Li Siming pulled Xu Dongsheng up from the ground and gently patted Xu Dongsheng's clothes.
"Master Xu, since you have forgiven him, let this matter go. However, Star City seems to be an ominous place for the Xu family. Otherwise, you Xu family should not go there in the future, otherwise something unexpected will happen. , I still have to make a trip, which is quite troublesome."
Xu Dongsheng stared at Li Siming, remained silent for a long time, and nodded.
"I remember Captain Li's words."
"That's good. In that case, I won't stay. After all, there are too many things going on in Star City. I'll say goodbye."
"No...not sending..."
Walking out of the Xu family's door, Li Siming yawned.
"This Xu Dongsheng is really easy to talk to."
Su Xiaotang sneered.
"You almost beat him to death, how can he not speak easily?"
"Eh? What are you talking about? Head Xu and I are just having a friendly discussion." Li Siming said seriously.
"I'm afraid Xu Dongsheng will have to take a good rest for the next half month after you apologize like this." Su Xiaotang looked at Li Siming with complicated eyes and said, "I never expected that you, Li Siming, would do such a thing. .”
Li Siming smiled: "Boss Su misunderstood me."
"misunderstanding?"
"Why do you all think that I, Li Siming, am easy to talk to?" Li Siming asked.
Su Xiaotang frowned.
Why do you think so?
Maybe it's because Li Siming is from the Demon Suppression Department.
There are always some people who think that just because Li Siming is from the Demon Suppression Division, he sometimes does things unscrupulously.
But those who really know him will understand that these words are simply ridiculous!
The identity of captain of the Demon Suppression Division has never brought any help to Li Siming. Instead, it is like a shackles of imprisonment. Without this level of identity, I am afraid that many people in this world will have to see this elegant-looking man. , a truly terrifying place.
Su Xiaotang walked a few steps and said, "If Xu Dongsheng takes action, that kid will definitely die. So, you injured him first and warned the Xu family not to go to Star City. This approach is really a bit overbearing." ”
Li Siming just nodded and said nothing.
Su Xiaotang continued: "The Xu family is a big family after all. Are you not afraid that they will go to the capital to complain?"
Li Siming glanced at him and asked, "Why do you think I care about what the capital thinks of me?"
Su Xiaotang: "..."
"I said before that you can take Gu Yuan to Tiangong to try. How about it? Do you want to try it?" Li Siming asked.
"..." Su Xiaotang held it in for a long time and cursed two words.
"Crazy batch!"
…
Gu Yuan waited for Hongromantic for a long time but didn't see Li Siming come back, so he couldn't help but be a little curious.
When it got dark, Gu Yuan drove back home.
At night, lying in bed, Gu Yuan was still thinking about the fight that happened during the day.
To be precise, this was the first time Gu Yuan used a knife to kill someone.
The heads were rolling, the blood was dripping, and the fresh life just disappeared.
Gu Yuan's nerves were numb when he committed the murder and in the afternoon, and he didn't even think it was such a big deal. But in the dead of night, as long as he closed his eyes, he could think of Xu Rulong and Xu Qingniao's appearance when they died. .
That vicious look, that ferocious face.
Opening his eyes, Gu Yuan stood up and came to the balcony.
On the small table on the balcony, there is an ashtray and a pack of cigarettes, which was placed here by the second uncle.
After hesitating for a moment, he lit a cigarette. In the dark environment, the lighter's roller crossed the flint. The sparks burst out and ignited the gas. A cluster of flames danced, reflecting Gu Yuan's face.
He took a long puff of cigarette, and the cigarette butt flickered.
After coughing violently, Gu Yuan was choked with tears. He stretched out his hand to wave away the smoke in front of him, and slowly found the feeling.
Under the stimulation of nicotine, his brain became more and more awake. He lay on the chair with a cigarette between his fingers and looked at the gray sky outside through the window. It was actually very difficult to see the stars in this bustling city. Things, so many people who like to pursue romance often spend money to buy some starry sky projectors online.
However, no matter how expensive the starry sky projector is, it cannot transport the real stars. That is the beauty of nature and cannot be copied by cold metal technology.
After just two puffs on a cigarette, Gu Yuan completely forgot about it. It wasn't until it was almost burned out that he came back to his senses. He stuffed the cigarette butt into the eight-treasure porridge jar, stood up and shook his body. Soot.
He took a sharp breath and blew away the cigarette ashes that fell on the ground. He took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, using this method to relieve the tension in his heart.
Sleepless night.
In the morning, Gu Yuan rubbed his face with cold water, brushed his teeth, and arrived at the martial arts academy early.
I didn't see Fu Li today. It seems that he has left. I don't know what he came to Star City for. In fact, he is also quite interested in the Fu Seal Master. If we meet next time, I must ask him.
Looking at Gu Yuan who was sweating profusely while practicing swordsmanship, Zhong Wuchen stood under the eaves holding a tea cup. The morning in late September was already a little cooler. When he went out in the morning, he would see some people wearing long sleeves and long trousers.
"Stop, stop practicing." Zhong Wuchen took a sip of tea and spat back the tea leaves that he accidentally drank.
Gu Yuan put down the knife in his hand and turned to look at Zhong Wuchen with questioning eyes.
"If your mind is not calm, why practice?" Zhong Wuchen said.
Gu Yuan smiled and nodded.
In fact, after the first murder, I was a little scared.
However, what he was afraid of was not the ghosts of Xu Rulong and Xu Qingniao.
To put it harshly, you are not afraid of the living, but you are afraid of his death?
Even if he really turns into a ghost, he can just sacrifice it with his backhand.
What Gu Yuan was afraid of was his numbness as he watched his life go by.
He is afraid that this beginning will push him further and further down this road, and eventually he will regard human life as nothing.
