Chapter 312 The Sun Also Rises

Chapter 312 The Sun Also Rises

When I woke up, I saw a white ceiling.

The monotonous ticking of the instruments echoed in the smell of disinfectant.

Luo Xian raised her eyes in confusion, and heard the hurried footsteps outside the door. The awakened doctors pushed open the door and conducted a comprehensive examination for her.

Nothing is missing.

Then I was puzzled to find that the originally depleted soul seemed to be reborn from the cocoon, but it was not as incomplete as imagined or better than before.

Nothing changes.

no more, no less.

Although I can't find any reason to explain this situation, but there is no way to dissect it or do more in-depth research. Some people want to try it under the ban, but they can be seen by the old man leaning against the wall to watch the fun After a quick glance, the bold idea was obediently abandoned.

Until the end, I can only leave regretfully with the conclusion that everything is normal.

Only the father and daughter were left in the ward.

Mr. Luo breathed a sigh of relief, and after closing the door, he finally looked at his daughter who had woken up. After a long, long time, he shook his head in confusion.

"It feels like nothing has changed."

"Yeah, it seems to be the same as before."

Luo Xian looked down at her hands, as if she didn't care about what happened to her.

Just incomprehensible.

The characteristics of the abyss still remain in her body, but the human part has not declined in any way.

She wasn't reborn as a human being, but she didn't die as a monster either.

The two sides mixed together again in an unpleasant way... But this time, they didn't have the benefits of the past. After losing the strengths of both sides, they kept all the defects of both.

Without the tyranny and cruelty of the abyss, it is endowed with human weakness and limitations...

Is this a success or a failure?

No matter how much she refuses the way she was in the past, and how much effort and determination she has put in for it, at best, she just switched the positions of the two sides on the balance.

There is no falling into the abyss, nor returning to the side of man.

Instead, the two ends of the first mouse hovered in the middle.

It looks completely different from the past, but there is no change in essence. This appearance really makes people feel helpless and unbearable from the bottom of their hearts.

"It's so funny, Xiaoxian."

The old man shook his head, seeing through the failure of this effort at a glance: "This is your essence, it cannot be changed, even if you are endowed with love..."

He made a decisive conclusion without warmth.

Already knew the outcome of this farce well.

There are some things in this world that cannot be changed only by hard work, no matter how strong the so-called mind and fetters are, the material world is never transferred by source quality, and when you try to use source quality to interfere Sometimes, you have to be prepared for things to get worse.

The more you want, the more the world will give, but what you get may not be the result you originally wanted. In the end, there is nothing left but emptiness and disillusionment.

This is how hell was created.

No matter what kind of literal "hell" is the same.

"Anything for you, Xiaoxian?"

"It seems not."

Luo Xian tilted her head and thought for a while, then laughed at herself: "It seems that I have lost a little more... I always feel that the loss outweighs the gain."

After losing the ferocious and predatory nature beyond the original specifications, he was endowed with weak kindness, but the hunger, thirst and incompleteness in his heart were never satisfied.

She is still missing.

The old man nodded, not caring about it. He just bent down, squeezed his overly strong body into the small sofa, and raised his legs: "So, do you have any insights?"

"If you have to say it, you don't have it?"

Luo Xian shook her head and sighed with regret: "Obviously she has been endowed with love, but the desire to kill something in her heart is even stronger.

Is this what father you said getting worse? After experiencing what love is, instead of being satisfied, I yearn for that kind of thing even more..."

Happiness is found in death, love is found in killing.

In any case, there is no way to make up for this inherent defect.

The short-term satisfaction made the monster side retreat temporarily, but it was a thousand times more eager than it was before, longing for what it once had.

It will only get crazier.

"It's okay, doesn't this still belong to my father?" Luo Lao slowly got up and reached out to her: "Let's go, let's go home."

"No, father."

Luo Xian thought for a while, shook her head, and said seriously: "I already have someone I want to kill."

"...Huh? Really?"

"yes."

Luo Xian laughed, until now, there was a hint of rosiness on her pale cheeks, and her dark eyes were filled with joy, anticipation and love.

"What kind of person is it?" The old man scratched his head in confusion: "Can I introduce you to my father?"

"Father, haven't you already met?"

Luo Xian thought for a while, recalling the past memories: "It's not like you, father, who can take things I do indifferently, and you are not like those aliens in the abyss who praised my actions. , not like other people who shy away from my dishes and me...After seeing my dishes, he actually wants to taste them."

Talking about the scene at that time, she couldn't help but smile: "Although he vomited it out after taking only one mouthful, and cried unreasonably, but he really didn't die."

"At that time, I suddenly thought-this is probably God's arrangement?

When I was the loneliest, sent a person I wanted to kill to me, made a person I couldn't kill to be friends with me, and always reminded me of my ugliness and distortion. "

"I don't know how to describe such feelings...but I want to kill him."

Luo Xian looked at her father and told him seriously:

"Or, it's the same if he killed him."

In the long silence, the old man looked at his daughter and raised his eyebrows in astonishment.

Not knowing whether it was regret or pity, he couldn't help shaking his head.

"...The first time you fell in love in more than 20 years, it turned out to be unrequited love? It's a pity, Xiaoxian..." The old man sighed softly, "Whether it's killing or being killed, loving or being loved, I'm afraid you won't get it." .”

"That's enough, isn't it?"

Luo Xian still looked at him, and calmly accepted this reality: "Didn't the book say that first love is always restrained and young, but it's just that there is no result, and it's not to the point of being frustrating, right?"

The old man thought for a while and nodded: "That's right."

He asked, "So, are you planning to leave home?"

"Has it been seen?"

"A father always wants to know his daughter, doesn't he?" the old man asked. "Where are you going? Rome? America? The Russian Federation? London? Or outside the present situation?"

"Not ready yet."

Luo Xian thought for a while, then shook her head: "Let's go out for a walk, since I was born, I haven't been out of Jinling much... In this way, father will have a lot less trouble, right?"

"Will you come back?"

"Of course I'll take a look when I pass by." Luo Xian said, "Although it's a pity that you didn't kill your father, I hope you can live a long life, father, and don't die at the hands of others."

"I try my best."

The old man nodded indifferently, looked at the daughter in front of him, and felt a little strange.

It's incomprehensible.

Have you grown up without knowing it? Or is it the magic of love that makes people grow?

But no matter what, it was time for her to face the world alone.

It's like seeing a chick spreading its wings to challenge the authority of an elder.

Under the harsh and severe scrutiny, his eyes became gratified and helpless: "It's ridiculous that a gluttonous and greedy ghost would yearn for temperate love, Xiaoxian...do you actually have such a dream? ?”

"People always have dreams, right?" Luo Xian replied expectantly: "Maybe, one day, people like me can also be redeemed."

"Yeah, maybe."

The old man nodded, and gently stroked the girl's long hair with his rough hands, full of kindness: "I hope you can enjoy this dream, Xiaoxian.

If one day you find yourself waking up from your dream, come back. I will be here waiting for you. "

He said, "Then, to kill you—"

He personally killed the monster he created, and brought the final relief to his daughter who had completely despaired of the world.

"OK."

Luo Xian nodded, feeling the old man's last tenderness.

This is the final agreement between father and daughter.

When Huai Shi woke up from the same hospital, it was already a week later.

He only remembered that after he dragged his serious injuries and had a drink with Liu Dongli, he fainted and fell to the ground, and woke up once in the middle, as if he was on some kind of operating table, and he heard the unbelievable exclamation of the surgeon in his coma.

When he closed his eyes and opened them again, he was already lying on the hospital bed, looking at the familiar ceiling, his mouth clicked, feeling that something was wrong.

After a deep sleep and repair, those wounds have healed, but Huai Shi still can't get up, because of the sequelae caused by the excessive stimulation of the source quality and use.

He might still have nervous breakdowns and sleepless nights for a long time before the rift in his soul healed.

When he picked up the phone, he saw Liu Dongli's message. He saw that Huai Shi didn't know when he would wake up, so he readily paid for a month's medical expenses, and then went to Shambhala alone for the hot spring treatment he talked about. Hunting trip.

Looking at the group photos of his circle of friends and girls from all walks of life, and the huge humanoid robot looming in the background behind him, Huai Shi was extremely envious.

If I had known earlier, I would have been ashamed and followed suit.

It would be nice to be able to touch the robot!

And when he opened the internal app of the Astronomical Society, he saw a notice sent to him by the Ministry of Justice - the secret interrogation about Ai Qing had already started yesterday.

Thanks to her excellent defense and Ai Qing's own ability and value, or some political deals and blessings that Huai Shi didn't understand, in the end she was only sentenced to border service because she voluntarily surrendered. The sentence of twenty years shall be executed immediately.

It is a pity that the place where she took up the post was a secret agency and unit, and Huai Shi didn't even know her specific whereabouts and how to contact her next.

The original phone call can only get the voice prompt of power off.

She seemed to have suddenly disappeared from the world that Huai Shi could touch, like a phantom evaporated in the mist, leaving without a sound.

Huai Shi didn't feel the truth at all.

And the other thing... I don't know why, out of the recognition of Huai Shi's own talent and various BULABULABULA reasons, in the internal sequence of the Astronomical Society, he actually changed from the original temporary worker to the "operation operator" 'was promoted to be an official military officer.

In addition to obtaining partial current judicial immunity and full member status, and with the approval of Dongxia's genealogy, he replaced Ai Qing's original position and became the new Xinhai inspector...

After two weeks, when he officially takes office, he will be able to obtain the authority and information from the headquarters and become the representative of the Astronomical Society in Xinhai.

Originally, inspectors had to go through the training and assessment of the London border before they were officially appointed. For some reason, when it was Huai Shi's turn, they were so perfunctory and sloppy, and only sent an electronic notice and file certification.

Why is it so 'progressive' somehow?

"What are you doing?"

Huai Shi sighed in bewilderment: After messing around, instead of being dismissed, he was promoted? What are the people from the central management department in the governing bureau thinking? Shouldn't a young man with a problematic thinking like himself have to hone his skills a little bit more?

In the end, Huai Shi could only come to the conclusion that there was something wrong with their brains.

Anyway, his kind of salty fish is definitely not as conscientious as Ai Qing. Basically, if you can touch it, you can touch it, you can drag it, you can push it, you can push it, you can wave it... The Astronomical Society is not afraid of it, so what else is he worried about? Energetic.

He has full confidence in himself.

He was not sure about the others, but he was too proficient in killing.

——Give me two months, before the Chinese New Year, I will be able to complete this position!

When the time comes, the sea will be wide enough for fishes to leap, and the sky will be high for birds to fly. Wouldn't it be beautiful?

If he was making a Pokémon that he didn't know where it came from, Huai Shi stood up, leaned against the head of the bed, and found a more comfortable position. Soon, he saw the small box between the flowers on the bedside table.

The packaging looks familiar.

I seem to have seen it somewhere.

When he reached out and opened the box, he saw the brilliant crystal lying on the black velvet, the miracle condensed by faith and prayer.

Divine grace.

Under the crystal, there is also a small note, on which someone left words in elegant handwriting, as if saying goodbye, but did not write their own name.

Huai Shi froze in place.

After a long, long time, he picked up the note in his hand and stared at the message on it: "Will the sun rise as usual?"

He was amused.

No matter what happens, the sun rises as usual, illuminating everything old or new, and sets as usual, casting good and bad into darkness.

Even if some things seem to be cataclysmic changes, or incredible miracles, no matter who was born, who disappeared, who came or who left...it will never stop.

The world would be the same without anyone.

And everyone is the same.

No one is indispensable, just as no one must not exist.

There is no parting that is unacceptable.

"... Wouldn't it be better to just say goodbye?"

Huai Shi shook her head and sighed helplessly.

Where did this hardcore farewell method come from?

Or was she really so strong that she even forgot the possibility of a reunion and said goodbye to herself forever? Let her go, anyway, even if her kind of scourge is thrown to the border, it will cause some big troubles.

Let's talk about it later.

Well, even if she came to the door crying and looked at her pitifully, and asked her good brother Huai Shi to help her, and she was willing to be like a bull and a horse in return, Huai Shi would never soften her heart!

Thirty years on the surface of the river, thirty years on the bottom of the river...

Don't bully the young and poor!

Thinking of the scene where Ai Qing begged her softly, Huai Shi couldn't help laughing out loud!

For a long time, for a long time, he fell into a deep sleep amidst the slowly rising sleepiness.

Outside the window, the night passed by little by little.

I don't know how long it took, the dark sky re-lighted with soft morning light. A new day is coming, just as the old one is coming to an end.

The Sun Also Rises.
