Seven days later was the auspicious day for burial. That day, it rained heavily and the whole world was left in black and white.

Bai Ran held an umbrella and walked behind Qi Tiezui, looking at Er Yuehong who was standing silently beside the coffin. He held the umbrella tightly in his hand. The bamboo umbrella was not easy to break, but how could it bear the sadness and worry of that day.

Qi Tiezui listened to the struggling sound of the bamboo umbrella beside his ear, looked at Bai Ran who seemed expressionless, sighed, walked to the side of Xie Jiuye's umbrella, replaced the position of the guy behind Xie Jiuye, looked at Bai Ran who seemed to still not react, and said: "Xiao Zhou, you go!"

Bai Ran seemed to wake up from a dream at this time, and looked at Qi Tiezui, as if he was puzzled as to when Qi Tiezui changed his position. A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then he seemed to be unable to suppress the itch in his throat. He coughed lightly a few times, regained some clarity, shook his head, and said lightly: "Chatterbox, I'm leaving first."

Qi Tiezui looked at Bai Ran, who finally regained his spirit of life and seemed to have returned to the way he was when they first met. Just as he was about to speak, Xie Jiuye stopped him. Bai Ran seemed to have not noticed Qi Tiezui's hesitation and Xie Jiuye's words to stop him. He seemed to be just a shell of himself. He turned around, dressed in black, and left the crowd.

Er Yuehong, who was standing beside the tombstone, seemed to have sensed something. She looked at Bai Ran's very calm back, watching him gradually disappear in the crowd and in the rain. She opened her mouth but said nothing. She turned her head and looked at the tombstone.

Bai Ran walked forward mechanically until he passed by a car not far from the cemetery. He didn't bear to look at the car. His eyes were very calm, but people could feel that he could see through the car window the person who was also watching him behind the window. He pulled the corners of his mouth, suppressed his inner anger, closed his eyes, and sighed. The anger seemed to be extinguished by the heavy rain. Bai Ran returned to his expressionless look and continued to walk forward.

Without a destination, there is no way back.

Following behind him not too far away was the man wearing sunglasses and rarely smiling. He glanced at the car and didn't say anything. He just adjusted his pace and moved a little further away from Bai Ran who seemed not to have noticed.

"Laojiu, why did you stop me?" Qi Tiezui looked at the direction where Bai Ran left with some concern.

"Do you still think that emotional return is a good thing?" Mr. Xie Jiu looked at Qi Tiezui, and saw Qi Tiezui's somewhat surprised expression because of this sentence, and said very calmly.

These familiar words made Qi Tiezui dazed again. In the beginning, Master Xie Jiu and Bai Ran actually had a lukewarm relationship. After Bai Ran tried several times and failed to change it, he gave up his curiosity about Qi Tiezui's slow return and ignored Master Xie Jiu in a very childish way. However, he was still a little sad that Master Xie Jiu was so distant.

At that time, Qi Tiezui was very curious about why Mr. Xie Jiu, who still cared about him and even helped him in private, would choose such a method. Mr. Xie Jiu was like this at that time, and asked indifferently, "Do you really think that for Xiao Ran, his emotional return is a good thing?"

What did he answer at that time? Qi Tiezui's mind echoed with these words, and when he remembered, he said, "It's better than him becoming a real zombie!" However, Qi Tiezui was a little uncertain now.

For Bai Ran, they were like his last emotional support in this world. They supported his last bit of sanity and gave him the warmth that was so precious to Xiao Zhou.

However, people grow old and will eventually die. What about the boat?

Qi Tiezui suddenly realized what the boy would experience. Looking at the tombstone in the rain, Qi Tiezui looked at Er Yuehong who seemed to have lost his soul, and said lightly: "At least, he will not be a real zombie! He is Bai Ran, Xiao Zhou, and Xiao Ran. This should be enough for him."

"Have you asked him?"
