I'm not a drama god

He has been with Han Meng for so long, and the sense of responsibility of a law enforcement officer has long been engraved in his heart. He knows that if Han Meng is here, he will definitely not choose to escape, but... But even if he stays, there is nothing he can do. , and... that's Aurora City!

He wanted to enter Aurora City so much. It was his lifelong dream. Now there was a way to enter Aurora City in front of him. How could he refuse? How could he refuse? !

But if I really escaped into Aurora City, how would I face Han Meng?

"Jack?"

Tan Ming saw Xi Renjie's struggle at this moment, hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Brother Jie, don't put too much pressure on yourself. It is the duty of law enforcement officers to protect the people, but it is also the duty of obeying orders. No matter what you do No matter what choice you make, I will follow you."

Hearing this, Xi Renjie fell into silence.

He stood in the dim fog, and his black windbreaker seemed to blend into the shadow.

"……help me……"

In the dead silence, a very slight sound sounded from the side.

Xi Renjie came back to his senses and turned to look in the direction of the sound. He immediately took steps towards the dim place, followed closely by Tan Ming.

The sound came from an open space. After getting closer, Xi Renjie discovered that this was the place where the clinic abandoned people during the day. Hundreds of abandoned critically ill patients were laid out here, waiting silently to die.

Some of these critically ill patients were carried back by their families on the spot, while the rest were either alone, or their whole family had died and no one claimed them.

A few hours later, most of the seriously injured people here had died silently, but a few people were still breathing... Either because of severe pain or because of despair, they were calling out in pain, their weak voices as small as mosquitoes. fly.

Xi Renjie found the person who made the noise and walked quickly to him.

It was a figure covered in blood. There were bite wounds all over his body. His eyeballs were bitten to pieces. Only blood and crystals were left in the dark eye sockets. The whole person fell to the ground twisted, and there were probably not a few intact bones left. , at first glance, there is no difference between it and a corpse.

"How are you?" Tan Ming couldn't bear to ask when he saw this.

"...save...save..."

As if he heard someone responding to him, the corpse-like figure moved his fingers and legs, and the desire for birth appeared on his blood-stained face.

Tan Ming was about to help him up when a hand grabbed his shoulder. When he turned around, he saw Xi Renjie looking at the man with complicated eyes and shaking his head.

"You shouldn't have responded to him."

"……why?"

"He is already dying... No one can save him. Your response to him will only make him die with hope... This will only make him more painful."

Tan Ming was stunned, "Then what should I do?"

Xi Renjie didn't answer, but there was a hint of determination in his bloodshot eyes... He walked up to the man, slowly took out his gun, and pointed it between his eyebrows.

"...Save...save me...please...save..." The figure that had lost its eyes was still pleading. It was as if it had returned to light and it wanted to sit up from the ground. At this moment, His forehead touched the muzzle of Xi Renjie's gun, and he suddenly froze on the spot.

"Thank you." Xi Renjie's voice was calmer than ever before, "...I understand what to do."

boom--!

A gunshot suddenly sounded.

As the figure fell to the ground, Xi Renjie stood up slowly. He held the muzzle of the gun with green smoke still floating in it, and walked in this desperate purgatory abandoned by the world.

Bang Bang Bang! !

Continuous gunshots rang out, and black windbreakers pulled the trigger in front of people who were still alive one after another, like the scythe of death harvesting desperate creatures. At the moment of death, there seemed to be no pain on their faces, but a trace of relief. .

Every time he killed a seriously injured person, Xi Renjie's eyes became more determined. He was like a scavenger, picking out all the rotten meat abandoned by humans.

When the entire magazine was empty, the open space fell into dead silence again... So far, except for him and Tan Ming, there was no one alive here.

"Brother Jie..." Tan Ming said with a complicated expression.

"Incompetent kindness is heart-wrenching poison for those who are dying and desperate." Xi Renjie slowly turned his head, his eyes seemed to pierce through the thick fog, and he saw the huge city standing in the center of the aurora.

"Perhaps Aurora City is right."

"Then you mean..."

"Go summon the law enforcers on the list and ask them to wait for me at the station."

"...Okay." Tan Ming took a deep breath and nodded heavily. Then he seemed to remember something, "What about Chen Ling?"

Xi Renjie fell into silence again. After an unknown amount of time, he closed his eyes gently.

"...Let him come to see me."

……

In her sleep, Chen Ling slowly opened her eyes.

At some point, he came to the twisted road leading to the sky. At the end of the road was an out-of-reach star in the sky, which was also his home.

"here we go again."

Chen Ling looked down and saw that he was standing on the second step of this road. Although he was only one step behind from before, he had risen a lot from the dark abyss.

If you observe carefully, you will find that the distance between the star and yourself seems to be closer...

"The next step is the third level."

Chen Ling looked forward, and saw a tall step a few meters away. This step was much larger than the second step in both height and distance.

According to what Han Meng said before, it takes an average person one or two years to go from the first level to the second level, and the second level to the third level takes even longer, starting from three years. Some people who are not talented enough may even be stuck at the second level. grade.

This is enough to prove that the difficulty from the second level to the third level is much greater than that from the first level to the second level.

Chen Ling tried to move forward, but his body was as heavy as lead. No matter how hard he tried, he could only move less than half a centimeter... His mental strength was still too weak now.

At the same time, Chen Ling's eyes fell on the section between the second and third steps. She could see the area closest to her, with vague small words displayed on it... and further away, there seemed to be One line.

"To advance from level [-] to level [-], do you need to complete more than one performance?" Chen Ling was a little surprised.

The line in the distance couldn't be clearly seen from Chen Ling's current position, so he could only squint his eyes and try his best to identify the line of small letters closest to him... After a long time, he murmured with some uncertainty. Soliloquy:

"[Complete a shocking exit in the presence of at least a hundred people]."
