sink

The sound of Shen Chi's military boots stepping on the gravel was like the wind falling from a high place, and then rolled up fine stones.

Ni Yu's heart beat faster and faster, and she blinked her eyes vigorously.

The footsteps finally stopped.

Shen Chi stood three meters away from him, looking down at him.

The frantically throbbing blood seemed to calm down all of a sudden.Because in Shen Chi's eyes, he saw the similar indifference on the day of his trial in the military court, and even restrained displeasure.

Sadness swept over and turned into a dim light in the bottom of his eyes.

There was a force urging him to stand up and look at Shen Chi squarely——in this relationship between him and Shen Chi, Shen Chi was the one who was at fault.He had been abandoned, charged with crimes that didn't exist, but he hadn't done anything wrong, and he didn't need to feel guilty about it.

But the wild running just now exhausted his physical strength, he barely propped up his forelegs, he wondered if Shen Chi could see that they were trembling ridiculously.

The air was boiling, and seemed to cool down in an instant.It is difficult for those in it to feel its exact temperature.

Shen Chi stared at Ni Yu silently, the night-like darkness in his eyes became more and more intense.

After a while, Shen Chi said, "You are injured."

Ni Yu was startled, and subconsciously looked at her body.

Are you hurt?

Not long ago in that space...

No.

Although being besieged by mutated creatures, Ni Yu was sure that she was not injured.

"Your leopard ears..." Shen Chi's tone was still so cold, "It's gone."

Ni Yu took a breath for an instant.

He even forgot that the leopard ear has never appeared since that time when he tore the leopard ear until it was dripping with blood.

How funny does he look at this moment?

Where there should have been leopard ears on the head, there is only a handful of faint fog left.

He couldn't imagine how Shen Chi looked at him at this moment.

"Why?" Shen Chi asked calmly.

Ni Yu suddenly felt angry.And anger is also a power.

He was weak and exhausted, trying to raise his neck, his voice hoarse, "Some parts of the parasite's body, once injured, will not reappear."

Shen Chi pursed his lips, and the atmosphere around him gradually became tense.

Ni Yu took a breath, her voice was full of strong emotions, "I scratched them, they will never appear again!"

The dust rose up and swirled gently between the two of them.

Ni Yu dug her front paws tightly on the ground, supporting her body stiffly.

Shen Chi didn't speak, the darkness in his eyes slowly flowed.

The more Niyu couldn't understand, the more impatient she became, "No one can rub them now! No one will be your partner!"

After saying this, he was stunned for a moment.

Too gaffe, like an unreasonable fool.

Sure enough, under the influence of animal nature, the parasite is prone to do uncontrollable things—even if his animal nature has been suppressed to the minimum because of the lines added by Shen Chi.

But this doesn't change the fact that he is a parasite!

No wonder humans always regard parasites as "inferior people". No wonder Shen Chi finally divorced him and chose pure-blooded humans.

He felt that he had angered Shen Chi, otherwise why would Shen Chi's brows be wrinkled so tightly?

But in the next moment, Shen Chi just asked: "Does it hurt?"

He heard it clearly, but failed to react, subconsciously asked: "Pain?"

After a while, Shen Chi said, "Does it hurt you to hurt them?"

A certain place in Ni Yu's mind lightly "hummed".

Does it hurt to tear the leopard ear?

No one asked him that question, not even himself.

He wants to say it hurts.If it was him in the past, he would have thrown himself into Shen Chi's arms at this time, and said in a voice that did not belong to the captain of "Blazing Eagle"—Sir, I am in pain.

But time has passed, and he can no longer say such words.

There was a faint sigh from above, and he didn't know if he heard it wrong.The sound of wind and sand here is too loud, like wild beasts screaming in the void.

Shen Chi said: "After you go back, don't do this kind of thing again."

go back?

Those two simple words weighed on Ni Yu's heart like a huge boulder.

He suddenly woke up, and he still had a lot to say to Shen Chi.

Can't go back now.

"Sir!" Ni Yu shouted.

Shen Chi stood where he was, without raising his brows, and when he heard this address, his eyelids drooped inconspicuously.

But Niyu didn't notice.

"Sir." Ni Yu said, "You didn't take back that gilt exoskeleton?"

After a while, Shen Chi said, "Yes."

Ni Yu asked eagerly, "Why?"

"Didn't Dr. Shanfeng tell you earlier?" Shen Chi said: "Each exoskeleton is tailored for a specific person. Without you, the exoskeleton is a pile of scrap iron."

"When was it buried in my lines? Why didn't I know?" Ni Yu said, "It's you..."

Shen Chi interrupted, "You always have countless questions, but not every question requires an answer."

Ni Yu was a little confused, he could see Shen Chi's impatience, but there were obviously other more complicated emotions in this impatience, but he couldn't figure it out.

"I was trapped in a space just now." Ni Yu lowered her head and said softly, "You came here because you knew I was in danger, so you came to rescue me?"

Shen Chi didn't deny it this time.

Ni Yu said: "I'm inside, and I saw Mrs. Lan Xing."

Shen Chi's expression changed suddenly, but he was not as surprised as Ni Yu imagined.

Ni Yu looked up at those familiar black eyes, couldn't help it anymore, and asked almost out of control: "Sir, why don't you want me anymore?"

Time seems to be taken away at this moment, the Gobi no longer exists, and the barren hills also disappear.Ni Yu saw the sea that Shen Chi took him to see back then, and the rosy glow that he hugged him on the aircraft.

Finally, he saw Shen Chi squatting down.

Five years ago, when he first became a parasite, he often played a game with Shen Chi - Shen Chi stretched out his hand, and he would put his paw on Shen Chi's palm, never tired of it.

He waited for Shen Chi to reach out to him again.

But Shen Chi just stared at him, palms down, pressing on his knees.

"Sir." He called out in a low voice, while actively stretching out his right front paw, trying to press it on the back of Shen Chi's hand.

Not the palm, but the back of the hand is also fine.

But just when he was about to touch Shen Chi, Shen Chi suddenly withdrew his hand.

And in his peripheral vision, a strange but profound figure appeared.

Blonde hair, sapphire eyes, impeccable face.

Shen Chi's current partner, Louis.

The sea and the glow were gone, Ni Yu froze in place, and the exoskeleton suddenly activated, covering him like a fig leaf.

Louis didn't approach, but watched from a distance.

Shen Chi got up, his eyebrows and eyes fell into the shadow of the backlight.

Under the support of the exoskeleton, Ni Yu also stood up on her hind legs.He looked at Shen Chi, with unconcealable reluctance in his eyes, then looked at Louis in the distance, with a trace of despair in his pupils, and finally, he turned his gaze back to Shen Chi, opened his mouth, without a single syllable Issued to.

He took a few steps back, then turned around, but stood still before taking a few steps, and looked back at Shen Chi.

It was a gesture of incomparable nostalgia.

Shen Chi remained motionless, also looking at him.

With a whimper that only he could hear, he turned again and ran slowly toward the leaden lighted horizon, never looking back.

The Gobi is so vast that even if you don't stand on a high place, you can see extremely wide and far.

Shen Chi took a step forward, his military boots stopped next to the two small paw prints, and then stood there, looking at the narrow but lonely black figure, which became smaller and smaller on the wasteland until it became an unbearable figure. Catch the black spot until it can no longer be seen by human sight.

Finally, he lowered his head and looked at the two paw prints on the ground.

The dust is too much, they are already a little blurred.

It was so clear just now.

The cheetah used all its strength in order not to show timidity in front of him.The pair of forelimbs were clearly trembling and unable to hold on, and they were still unwilling to fold down.

Cheetahs didn't do this before.Acting coquettishly is Cheetah's forte.

Shen Chi stared at the paw prints for a while, and finally squatted down, completely erasing their traces with his hands.

There was the sound of easy footsteps behind him.

Louis was like an audience who had just finished watching a play, leaving the show in a good mood.

"Did I disturb you?" Louis' tone was not apologetic, on the contrary, he was quite complacent.

Shen Chi glanced at him and walked towards the aircraft.

"Well, you are actually grateful to me in your heart." Louis' blond hair was extraordinarily dazzling in the gloomy world, "If I don't show up, if you are soft-hearted, you might take your leopard back."

Shen Chi said coldly: "You talk too much."

"To a person who has helped you, major general, is your attitude justified?" Louis smiled and didn't care, "Forget it, as long as you remember, you owe me one, no, two favors are fine."

The 170th Legion is nearby, and the aircraft cannot take off for the time being.

Shen Chi entered the cockpit and closed his eyes.

Soon, Louis' voice came from beside him again, "I suddenly understand why you raised a cheetah in the Beast Gene Research Center. It is exactly the same as Ni Yu—I can call him that—in animal form."

Shen Chi opened his eyes, "The cheetahs all look similar."

Louis smiled, "You can fool others, but you can't fool me. They even have the same texture."

Shen Chi turned sideways and looked at Louis.

"Don't believe me?" Louis said, "I forgot to tell you that my memory can reproduce everything I see."

Shen Chi raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Are you an AI?"

A strange light flashed in Louis' eyes, he paused for a moment and said, "You can understand it that way."

Shen Chi sneered.

"When I saw Leopard that day, I thought it was some kind of consolation for you." Louis said, "But it's actually more than that. Major General, how many tricks did you use in secret?"

Shen Chi clicked on the terminal, and the information stream on the map showed that the 170th Army Corps was leaving, and the aircraft would be able to take off after a while.

Louis said: "That young leopard is the secondary carrier you prepared for Ni Yu."

Shen Chi snapped his fingers.

"I got it right?" Louis laughed happily, "I guess its genes and Niyu are a perfect match, right? You can save him one more time."

Shen Chi's pupils sank suddenly, and a dangerous atmosphere permeated the not-so-spacious cockpit.

Louis said: "It seems that I was right."
