Shen Zicheng

Sometimes I wonder if I am a lone star, born with the constitution to cause trouble.

It's just that you can bump into a single dwarf just by strolling casually.

It's just that if you run away casually, you can bump into a lonely Shen Qiao.

Both wanted to be taken away by me.

Di and Shen Qiao looked at each other through a line that I couldn't see.

How weak and helpless I was caught in the middle.

From the point of view of momentum, Shen Qiao is indeed not as powerful as that scorpion, but fortunately, without the stumbling block of July and a half, that scorpion probably does not have the desire to fight Shen Qiao.

——I think my temptation to it should not be as great as Shen Qiao's threat to it.

So after a stalemate for about 2 minutes, the scorpion looked at me again, and slowly backed away reluctantly towards the way I came from.

After it completely disappeared within my sight, I looked at Shen Qiao and slowly moved in another direction very carefully.

Shen Qiao watched my actions expressionlessly, and the human face floating above his body also watched my actions expressionlessly.

His scalp was numb just like the one who just looked at me.

"You said before," Shen Qiao startled me by speaking suddenly, "you found a way to make Di get away from me?"

... No, is it really okay for you to say this in front of the brother above you?I bit the bullet and stopped running away quietly, pretending to be calm and said: "I think we can discuss this later."

Shen Qiao didn't care about my perfunctory, and continued to ask: "Do you think that if the 聻 eats you, you can suppress its thoughts and make it no longer want to be stored on my body?"

I didn't speak, only a feeling of uneasiness slowly rose in my heart.This made me look left and right, and then gritted my teeth and praised myself in the bottom of my heart.

I can really run away.

Run to this kind of remote place that is convenient for killing and setting fire.

Otherwise, even a living person can stop Shen Qiao from talking to me.

"During the time you were running around," Shen Qiao suddenly smiled when she said this, it was the kind of smile that looked like the villain had succeeded in a trick, "I went to meet your friend."

I thought about it for a while, besides Shen Qiao, who else I know can be regarded as a friend.

Then Shen Qiao told me the answer by herself: "Although I have met twice before, this should be the first time I have talked to him - he is very firm, saying that it involves your privacy, and he refuses to tell me what happened. But after meeting my friend, he thought I was a very friendly person and was willing to tell me everything he knew."

I looked up and looked at the dick that belonged to Shen Qiao.

Oh... poor Chen En.

"You're—" I tried to speak up for the innocent victim, "it's not good."

Shen Qiao shrugged her shoulders and said noncommittally, "I'm just curious about where you got the news... You are always unwilling to listen to what I say, and instead believe what other people say."

I shrank my neck a little guilty.

That human face on his head put me under a lot of pressure.

"Actually, this method is not unfeasible...if it's that guy you just saw." Shen Qiao glanced in the direction that the man left, "That guy is not shy, whether it's a ghost or a ghost, or even a coincidence. Even a living person dares to devour it, so there is such a flaw left. But it—"

Having said that, Shen Qiao pointed to the top of her head and said softly, "It's different."

"It's more picky than that guy, and nothing can arouse its interest except evil spirits."

Shen Qiao looked at me.

My stress has increased.

"And compared to that guy's gulping, it prefers to chew slowly, bit by bit to kill all the thoughts except it." Shen Qiao spoke slowly, "So if it eats it, it won't eat it." Anything left that belongs to your own thoughts.”

The more Shen Qiao talked, the more annoyed I became. After a certain level of annoyance, it turned into anger. As soon as Shen Qiao finished speaking, I couldn't help but want to choke him: "... Then according to what you said, are you going to kill me now? Are you taking it easy? What else do you want to be together—"

I shut up.

The words came out of my mouth without even crossing my mind.

I didn't mean to say that.

Shen Qiao laughed instead: "You are different."

After a pause, Shen Qiao continued: "I can't die because it is hanging my life. But it is not complete, it has to spend more effort to keep me from dying, and every time it eats a When it is an evil spirit, it will take back this power to digest."

"And you..." he draws out his tone, as if weighing his words, "is both a ghost and half a scorpion. You have a part of it, and if it eats you... it might be able to bear it Eat your consequences, but I can't."

"Du won't die, but I will."

I choked for a moment, and thought for a while before I dared to speak: "...then why did you tell me?"

If he doesn't tell me, then no matter what I choose in the end, what he expects will come true.

Shen Qiao looked at me and said nothing.

After a long while, Shen Qiao slowly lowered her head, and her voice was as soft as a goose feather: "Before I left, your friend told me that if I really treat you as... a friend, I will stop forcing you to accept me. Instead, I should ask your opinion more. He said—he said that too heavy feelings will make people breathless."

...I didn't expect Chen En to give me an assist in this kind of place.

"After thinking about it, I think what he said makes sense." Shen Qiao kept looking down at the ground, and I couldn't guess what kind of expression he would have now, "So I want to ask you, if you were me ,what will you do?"

I'm stuck.

Shen Qiao only raised her head at this time, her pale face showed neither blood nor expression.

He said: "If I was the one who died, what would you do?"

If it was Shen Qiao who died at that time, I would—

I opened my eyes wide.

It's like the associative vocabulary of the input method. When I think of these two words, I already have a complete sentence in my mind.

This time it didn't go away.

When Lin Le died, Shen Qiao asked me to guess what happened.

I still remember the surprise on Shen Qiao's face when I guessed right.

He asked me why I could guess right.

At that time, I also had a definite answer in my brain.

Although I forgot all about it in an instant, but after such a long time, I suddenly remembered what I wanted to say at that time.

"Because I would do the same."

I'm not even as strong as that man.

If it was Shen Qiao who died.

I will not live to the next day.

"Shen Zicheng," Shen Qiao looked at me quietly, I couldn't tell whether my fear came from him or myself, "tell me——what will you do?"

"I—" I broke my voice at the first word, which made me swallow back what I wanted to say, and looked away at Shen Qiao, "...But you are still alive, this assumption is not valid."

Shen Qiao smiled a few times, shaking her head as if helplessly: "Look, you've never been willing to answer my questions directly." After a pause, she said in a low voice, "That's why I have no way of knowing that you are What do you think...whether it was before or now."

I was stunned.

...Have I been avoiding Shen Qiao's question?

I thought about it carefully, and then realized that it seemed to be the case. ——But isn't it all because he asked too sharply?If only he had asked softer...?

...I can't speak.

"...If that's really the case," I lowered my head and said honestly after thinking about it, "I probably won't be able to survive."

Shen Qiao didn't immediately show such an expression as I imagined. Instead, he remained silent for a while, and still said softly, "Then you shouldn't keep stopping me."

"It's not the same." I shook my head, looked up at Shen Qiao, hesitated for a while, then lowered my head and said, "It's not the same... I can't live because there is no one who supports me to live. I am a A lunatic is a person who doesn't care whether he lives or not. No one cares about my life except you. But you...you are not like me, Shen Qiao. Even without me, you still have someone who can support you to continue living. Friends, family, maybe another person who makes you fall in love... I'm not questioning your feelings, but Shen Qiao, people are like this, no one can guarantee that they will never fall in love with someone again in their entire life, even me All kinds of people-"

I coughed, and then continued: "I mean, you have done enough for me, I... It has been an honor in my life to have you for ten years before I was alive, so after death, I will not You should waste more of your time."

"It's an honor..." Shen Qiao repeated in a low voice, and after being silent for a while, she suddenly asked, "For you, what kind of person am I...?"

This question was too sudden, and I couldn't find the right words to describe it for a while.

What kind of person is Shen Qiao to me?

Is he... is he?

I stared blankly at Shen Qiao.

He stood in the direction away from the center of the city in the winding and cramped alleyway. As the night grew darker, the neon lights hanging on those steel monsters lit up one by one.

But none were more dazzling than Shen Qiao.

I looked at those lights and then at Shen Qiao.

From head to tail, from top to bottom, from eyebrows to lips, from forehead to fingertips, I looked at Shen Qiao.

suddenly see the light.

"You are my light."

"You are the light I don't want to go out."
