Between life and death [unlimited]

Sad, regretful, at a loss, guilty...

These many emotions are intertwined and intertwined, and an unspeakable chaotic emotion surged into Jiang Lai's heart instantly like a volcanic eruption.

Jiang Xun, who has always been instilled in the organization with the idea of ​​"achieve the end by any means", can't figure out why he became like this - even if he killed his teammate by mistake, it was just to complete the task.

This idea is within the scope of his cognition, and there is no logical error.

But why is there a faint sourness in the middle of the crack that spread silently in the bottom of my heart?

It was like eating an immature fruit, and a lot of lactic acid formed after excessive muscle exertion overflowed from between his tightly closed lips and teeth.

Jiang Lai realized belatedly that his heart was not completely isolated, and it also felt pain.

He kept silently replaying the scene of Si Yufeng before his death in his mind.

Fresh hot blood was sprayed on his face, until now, he seemed to be able to smell the rotten breath of death in his nostrils.

However, even at the moment before death, Si Yufeng's eyes never showed resentment towards him, right?

Jiang Lai tried to imagine—if he could no longer see those black eyes that smiled at him, and never meet the person who tried to blend into his boring life...then what his future would look like ?

Those strong emotions that have been suppressed in the bottom of my heart and haven't erupted for many years, at this moment, continue to attack his traditional cognition like encountering a huge flood.

For so many years, Jiang Shui has been like an acrobat walking on a tightrope.Every step he took was to perform with his own life.

Now he looks at the balance pole in his hand that he has relied on for a long time, and thinks in his heart: should he try to throw it away and give up this tool for survival?

Just as Jiang Lai fell into deep self-confusion, the door of 1903 was suddenly opened from the outside again.

The dilapidated iron door made a heavy "creak" abruptly, which sounded like it was telling everyone that it was getting old.

Si Yufeng was startled when he saw Jiang Xun and Zhang Jian standing in the living room, and soon he greeted them with a smile: "Senior, Jiang Xun, you have come back? Did you two just meet? Is it?"

Jiang Lai raised his head when he heard the words, and the gentle and jade-like figure of the man was immediately reflected in his eyes.

To this day, he still clearly remembers how dazzling the sunset was that evening.

Just like the warm smile that Si Yufeng always hung on the corner of his mouth, the blood-red light was as gentle as a ray of spring breeze, quietly shining into his long-frozen heart without knowing when.

Zhang Jian turned around and smiled at Si Yufeng, and said embarrassedly: "Yes! I met Jiang Xun on the road just now, and then he asked me if I want to come to eat together. I think I haven't eaten yet, so I will come with him Already~"

He was obviously lying, but Zhang Jian still had a normal expression on his face, neither blushing nor heart beating, because he knew that if he was as silent as a river, he would definitely not expose him.

However, Jiang Lai, who was next to him, was currently experiencing a fierce battle between heaven and man, so naturally he was not in the mood to expose Zhang Jian's lies.

Zhang Jian saw the vegetables and fresh meat in Si Yufeng's hands again, and said with emotion: "Xiaofeng just came back from buying vegetables? Let me see, there seems to be fish? Wow, you plan to cook them at home Do you want to eat?"

Although Si Yufeng knew that Zhang Jian's words just now were probably false, but he didn't show anything, as if he was in a good mood, he just smiled and said: "Yes. I just finished the task and nothing happened. Cooking by yourself can also regulate your emotions. Why don't you sit down for a while and ask you to come over to eat together after I finish cooking. "

"Okay! Then we won't bother you, you can go on your own~" Zhang Jian happily urged Si Yufeng to go to the kitchen as soon as possible, "Then what about Jiang Xun, let's just sit down and wait for dinner. I will Saying that you are too polite, it’s not good to always let me come to your place for a meal, hahaha..."

Jiang Lai, who hadn't spoken since entering the door, simply ignored what Zhang Jian said to him.He suddenly raised his head and stared at his teammates, and said to Si Yufeng aloud, "I'll help you." After speaking, he reached out to take the things in Si Yufeng's hand.

As soon as these words came out, it was like a stone was suddenly thrown into the calm lake, causing ripples to splash immediately.Not only Zhang Jian was stunned, but even Si Yufeng who was standing at the door was stunned for a moment.

But Si Yufeng was the first to react.He didn't refuse too much, and still had the standard smile on his face, nodded to Jiang Xun and said, "Okay, just so you can help me, thank you ~ Jiang Xun."

Zhang Jian's eyes kept looking back and forth between Jiang Lu and Si Yufeng, and his eyes kept flickering.He always felt that the way of getting along between these two teammates and roommates seemed to have changed, but he couldn't answer what exactly had changed, whether their relationship had become better or worse.

After the two entered the kitchen, since Jiang Li had never cooked before, they just helped Si Yufeng do some simple tasks of washing and cutting vegetables.

But it just so happens that Jiang Xun's knives with the knife are superb. I saw those fruits and vegetables being cut into various shapes under his knife. What's even more abnormal is that even the shape of each piece of them is almost exactly the same. .

One advantage of Jiang Lai is that when he is doing things, no matter what kind of things he is doing, his attitude must be consistent, dedicated, serious and meticulous.

However, when helping out this time, Jiang Xun couldn't help but pay a little attention to Si Yufeng who was beside him.When he watched Si Yufeng skillfully cooking and cooking soup, he couldn't help but imagine - what would the real Si Yufeng look like?Will it be the same as he imagined?

Si Yufeng originally prepared meals for two people, but now that there is one more person, he can only cook a little more, and the kitchen is very busy for a while.

Jiang Xun always wanted to find an opportunity to ask Si Yufeng about the mission just now, but he didn't know how to speak and asked Si Yufeng his own questions.

"You..." Finally said a word, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he didn't know what he wanted to ask next.

But Si Yufeng immediately stopped what he was doing.He looked at Jiang Lai, and asked with a puzzled expression on his face, "Huh?"

Jiang Lai noticed that his teammate's eyes were looking at him intently, like a night sky full of stars, which seemed to be full of unknowns and hopes.He recalled how they had slowly become dim before, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart, suddenly feeling a little scared.

He thought that he would never see that scene again in his life.

"What was your mission just now?" He heard himself asking Si Yufeng like this.

Si Yufeng did not hesitate to conceal the fact that he was a "game director".The corner of his mouth raised a smile again, and he just answered lightly: "My task just now was very simple, I just did a few sets of questions, and then I was locked in a mirror room, and then I didn't know why it ended suddenly gone."

"What about you?" He suddenly asked Jiang Lu.

Jiang Lai watched every change of expression on Si Yufeng's face intently, and directly threw out the correct answer, "Distinguish between true and false."

——It’s just “you” who needs to distinguish the true from the false.

"Distinguish between true and false?" Si Yufeng couldn't immediately understand what Jiang Lai meant, after all, his answer was a bit too concise.

But Jiang Lai found that there was no special expression on Si Yufeng's face from the beginning to the end, except for normal doubts.Si Yufeng's tone of voice, expression, and even breathing rate were all too natural.

"Yeah." Jiang Lai narrowed his eyes and continued to pick the vegetable leaves in his hands, his slender eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids, "It's also very simple."

"Okay." Seeing that Jiang Xun didn't want to say more, Si Yufeng didn't continue to ask, but turned his head to work on the dishes in the pot.After a moment of silence, the two returned to their original work.

The moment Si Yufeng turned around to go back, Jiang Xun stopped what he was doing at the same time.

He looked at his teammates again, and the eyes in his eyes deepened.

——Fortunately, it seems that my previous judgment in the game was not wrong.That "Si Yufeng" is just fake.

In fact, Jiang Lai didn't suspect that "Si Yufeng" was a fake when he first started.

Mysterious, gentle as jade, knowledgeable... These are the impressions Si Yufeng left on him all the time, so when the fake Si Yufeng spoke Sanskrit, Jiang Xun thought that he was his teammate.

But in the series of accidents that happened later and the conversations between the two, that fake Si Yufeng always showed his love and desire for Jiang Xun sparing no effort. Suspect.

Leaving aside Si Yufeng's special feelings for Shen Yu and whether he really loves him, Jiang Xun guessed based on his own cognition that the real Si Yufeng's way of expressing his love to Shen Yu should not be so direct.

Not to mention the intimacy that fake Si Yufeng showed to him afterwards.In Jiang Xun's impression, it was impossible for Si Yufeng to do such an outrageous thing suddenly.

When he heard the notification that the task was completed, he was very confident in his choice, and he was convinced that that person was the fake Si Yufeng.

But when he returned to 1903 and found that Si Yufeng was not here, at that moment, he really panicked.

He didn't know what to do next if he really killed him by mistake.His heart seemed to be in an unprecedented panic, and his whole body fell into a daze.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lai regained his senses and looked at Si Yufeng who was cooking with his back turned.

Fortunately, Si Yufeng is still alive.He was right in his judgment.

The guilt in his heart suddenly eased a lot, but Jiang Xun still felt a little upset for no reason.

I don't know if it's because of people or things.

From the temptation just now, it can be guessed that Si Yufeng probably didn't know what the "he" of the clone had done to him.

As for that kiss... He probably didn't know about it either, did he?

While Jiang Lai was deep in thought, Si Yufeng had already cooked the last dish.

"Jiang Xun doesn't need to be busy, let's go out to eat." Si Yufeng turned off the fire and said to him with a smile.

Jiang Lai looked at the warm sun-like smile on his teammate's face, and silently compared Si Yufeng's smile to himself and Shen Yu's smile in his heart.

— different, totally different.

Then he decided to hide it completely.

He thought, it's better not to let Si Yufeng know about these things forever.

……

By the time the three of them had dinner, the sky outside was almost completely dark.

Zhang Jian excitedly offered to help put the bowls and chopsticks, his mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and he praised one after another, "Oh, it's really hard for Xiaofeng and Jiang Shang, making such a big table with delicious dishes! Knowing you, I didn't know what blessings I had accumulated in my previous life! It's really lucky to be flourishing in my three lives!"

"Pengpi Shenghui was used wrongly, senior..." Si Yufeng reminded in a low voice.

"Really? Hahaha, I've been using it like this all the time, it's about the same~" Zhang Jian's tone sounded carefree, and he said nonchalantly: "What is this called in an idiom? Doesn't it stick to trifles?"

"I didn't make a mistake this time, did I?" He asked Si Yufeng again winking.

"That's right." Si Yufeng smiled slightly, and then told the two to start eating, "Let's eat first, it won't taste good after a while."

Zhang Jian raised his chopsticks and looked at the delicious food on the table, excitedly said: "Come on! I won't bring you any leftovers in the end!"

Although the types of ingredients in Survivor's City are limited, Si Yufeng still made a lot of tricks, and even thoughtfully prepared a dessert for Jiang Shang.

"By the way, Xiaofeng, what mission did you guys go to perform just now?" Zhang Jian kept chatting while eating.It's not long since they came back, so they shouldn't be performing missions so soon again, right?

So Zhang Jian suddenly thought, "Isn't it another special mission?"

Hearing Zhang Jian's guess, Si Yufeng stopped what he was doing, and said helplessly, "It's a special mission..."

"I'll go!!" Zhang Jian said enviously, "I say you guys are really lucky!"

"It's okay, it's okay..." Although you can get enviable special mission rewards, only the person involved knows the sadness of it.

"Then is your mission difficult this time?" Zhang Jian asked again.

Si Yufeng glanced at Jiang Xun seemingly unintentionally, but quickly looked away, "It's not difficult." He gave the same answer as before.

"It's still a special task that is not too difficult?! Then how much reward can you get this time?" Zhang Jian was deeply moved, "It seems that I have to follow you in the future. The luck of you two is really unmatched... "

Jiang Lai just sat quietly on the side, and did not intervene in the conversation between the two.He ate the food in front of him silently as usual, but he always felt that there was a gaze staring at him at the table.

But when he looked up, he found that Zhang Jian and Si Yufeng who were sitting opposite were just talking and neither looked at him.He shook his head, thinking maybe he was too sensitive.

Just as Jiang Lai lowered his head and was about to eat dessert, Si Yufeng, who was chatting with Zhang Jian, couldn't help but look distractedly at his teammates again.

His brain and mouth were automatically processing and answering Zhang Jian's various questions, but in the corner of his eyes, all he could see was the contented appearance of Jiang Xun chewing silently.

His thoughts also drifted back to the mirror room in the game. He looked at the sexy lips that kept opening and closing due to eating, and thought to himself——

Why did the "he" who turned into a demon only kissed Jiang Lu on the cheek, but didn't kiss him directly?
