I studied beheading in a mental institution

The snow is getting smaller and smaller.

The sky is getting darker and darker.

On the roof of a building next to the low house, Lin Qiye sat there quietly, with two black boxes beside him, like a stone sculpture, which had not moved for a long time.

The city, like the sea level, extends to the end of the field of vision, getting farther and farther away, and getting darker. At the junction of the ground and the sky, a slant of the setting sun illuminates the uneven building shadows with a golden edge.

The twilight light shone on Lin Qiye head-on, stretching his back very long...

Those deep eyes contained a touch of sunshine, watching the busy family in the distance, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, the breeze brushed the boy's black hair, and the air seemed to be filled with the fragrance of food.

I don't know how long it took, a man walked slowly to his side with his back on his back, looked at the family from a distance, and after a long time, slowly said:

"Do you regret it?"

Under the setting sun, Lin Qiye shook his head slightly, "I don't regret it."

"In a short time, you won't be able to go back. The more frequently you come back, the more people will notice." Leng Xuan sat down beside him and said.

"I know."

"Actually, even if you don't come today, nothing will happen to them."

Lin Qiye turned his head and looked at Leng Xuan suspiciously.

"Do you think that the captain's so-called protection of your family is just talking?" Leng Xuan's mouth slightly curled up, and he stretched out his hand, pointing to the short house in the distance,

"That day, when the captain brought the deputy team to your house to deliver the materials, he posted a forbidden object named [Weiyang] at the door of your house. This forbidden object is like a transparent note that can open a small Forbidden ruins.

Once someone with malicious intentions tries to break through the protection range of [Wei Young], it will activate and send all the marked creatures in the house to another marked point, which is the underground of the Peace Office, to protect their safety. "

Lin Qiye was taken aback, he had never heard Chen Muye mention the existence of [Wei Young], let alone when his aunt and Yang Jin were already under the protection of forbidden things.

"[Weiyang]..." Lin Qiye muttered to himself.

"Same as [No Ring Space], it is one of the few man-made forbidden ruins of the night watchman, but the price of this thing is not cheap, even in the night watchman, there are not many people who can use this thing." Speaking of this Leng Xuan seemed to have remembered something, his voice gradually softened,

"However, in our 136 team, basically everyone's family members have this shelter."

Lin Qiye asked blankly: "Why?"

Leng Xuan glanced at him meaningfully, "What do you think...why is the captain so poor?"

Lin Qiye's body shook slightly, and soon he thought of something, and stared into the distance in a daze.

Leng Xuan patted him on the shoulder, carried the gun case on his back, turned and walked downstairs, his voice came to Lin Qiye's ear with the breeze.

"Let's go, you won't be able to eat the New Year's Eve dinner in this family, but the other family...will always welcome you."

Lin Qiye took a deep look at the direction of the house. There, his aunt was holding a plate of fresh hot dishes on a small wooden table. Yang Jin was sitting beside him with a smile on his face.

After a while, he smiled helplessly, stood up and walked towards the corridor.

At this moment, a black and small mangy dog ​​appeared in front of him, ran over quickly, and rubbed its head against Lin Qiye's ankle.

"Little black skin?" Lin Qiye lowered his body in surprise, rubbing its head gently with his hand.

Xiao Heilai licked Lin Qiye's hand and hiccupped.

"What did you eat? You're hiccupping..." Lin Qiye laughed.

He picked up Xiao Heilai, carried it to the downstairs of the short building, put it on the stairs, and said softly:

"I'm leaving, you should go home quickly, tonight, you have a good fortune..."

He rubbed Xiao Heilei's stomach, stood up and picked up the two black boxes, finally looked up at the closed door, turned and walked towards the dim sky.

He stepped on the white snow, leaving a straight footprint that stretched into the distance...

……

Ding-dong-!

welcome!

As soon as Lin Qiye opened the door of the office, a strong aroma of vegetables rushed to his face. The full contact between the oil and the ingredients made a soft sizzling sound, and with the shaking of the pot body, there was a rhythmic crackling sound.

The most reassuring voice in the world is none other than this.

Hongying sat at the dining table, staring straight at the stewed old goose on the table, swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and quietly touched the goose's legs with restless hands...

Snapped!

Wu Xiangnan's chopsticks quickly grabbed Hongying's hand, "We will eat when everyone is ready."

"I... I'll just take one bite, just one bite!" Hongying cautiously stretched out a finger.

"no."

Hongying lowered her head aggrieved, and put the chopsticks in her hand on the table, lying limply on the table like a salted fish whose dreams had been sucked out.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Lin Qiye walking into the room, and her eyes lit up again.

"Qiye, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Lin Qiye shook his head, "Did you catch the archer?"

Hongying pursed her lips, and shook her head with a bitter face, "No, that guy ran too fast. I didn't dare to use the Forbidden Ruins to chase him in broad daylight, so I let him run away..."

Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully, "It's okay, he shouldn't be malicious, it's just his identity..."

Lin Qiye has always been concerned about the identity of that mysterious person. There are not many people who can know the location of his home, and they also know that it was ambushed by the Mad Scorpion team. Since it is not a night watchman, who has such great energy?

"Is the captain still cooking?" Wen Qimo came up from the basement, touched his shriveled stomach, and asked.

"I've been busy for almost two hours. This is still under the circumstances that Xiao Nan is helping me. I really don't know how many dishes he plans to cook. I'm going to starve to death~"

Hongying said with a mournful face.

After a few more minutes, the kitchen finally quieted down. Chen Muye came out holding a large bowl of fish soup, followed by Si Xiaonan, who was full of bowls and chopsticks.

Finally, everyone was seated.

A long table, eight seats, sixteen delicious dishes.

Chen Muye, Wu Xiangnan, Hongying, Wen Qimo, Lin Qiye, Si Xiaonan, Leng Xuan... There was also an empty seat. Originally, a man named Zhao Kongcheng should be sitting there.

Chen Muye slowly picked up the wine glass in his hand, the orange beer gave off a faint halo under the light, his eyes swept over the crowd.

"During this year, old people passed away, new people joined, and many things happened...

However, we managed to defend the city once again, for a whole year.

As the captain of Team 136, and as a night watchman, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone present here on behalf of the countless creatures in Cangnan City. "

Chen Muye stood up straight, bowed deeply to everyone present, then raised his head, eyes full of seriousness:

"I hope that by now next year, there will still be... a lot of us sitting here.

everyone,

Happy New Year. "

Everyone stood up from their positions, raised their wine glasses high, and collided with each other, making clinking sounds, and the wine rolled in different wine glasses, like golden waves of wheat, connected to each other.

"Happy New Year!!"

……

Whoosh-!

Snapped--! !

The continuous sound of firecrackers came from a distance, bright fireworks rose from every corner of the city, bloomed in the black night sky, and the colorful fireworks swayed in the wind, gradually dissipating without a trace.

"Brother Yan, it seems that this year, only the three of us can celebrate the New Year together."

Baili Pangpang handed the can of beer to Shen Qingzhu, who stared at the gorgeous sky in a daze, and then came back to his senses.

"During work, don't drink." Shen Qingzhu shook his head.

"Have a drink, even half of the monk Cao Yuan drank it. You are a laborer, why are you still acting so pretentious?" Baili Fatty grinned, and pointed to the ceiling above his head, "Besides, the young master's bodyguard The regiment has arrived, even if you faint from drinking, no one in Cangnan City can hurt me."

"But……"

"This is an order from the boss!"

"……Fine."

Shen Qingzhu opened the tab of the can and made a sound of bubbling. Cao Yuan also came forward with beer...

In the cramped and damp love hotel, three teenagers sat by the window, watching the fireworks in the sky, and collided the beers in their hands.

"Happy New Year!"

……

In the dark underground cavity.

An Qingyu, wearing a black cloak, sat quietly on the stone platform. The chessboard in front of him had long since disappeared, replaced by a bottle of Sprite that had already drunk most of it.

The hazy moonlight spilled from the grid above the head, illuminating half of the underground space, and the sound of fireworks in the distance came slowly, echoing in the empty space.

An Qingyu looked at the moonlight above her head, remained silent for a long time, and slowly raised the Sprite in her hand.

"Happy New Year."

He muttered to himself.
