kill dawn

The Twilight Tower has always been isolated from the world.

Whether it was the initial discovery of mental overload, the underground auction in the midnight area, or the public disclosure of the secret of entropy, the people in the Twilight Tower did not make a single movement.

This closed state made Fang Jue more convinced that Zhang Yuting knew everything a long time ago and made all plans for it.

He didn't know what the plan was, but he understood that maybe this was what Zhang Yuting said, and it was his responsibility.

Walk across the arch bridge, let the hanging sun fall behind you, under the dusk tower, there is a young man waiting for him.

Fang Jue recognized that this was the person who almost replaced him as the new executive officer a long time ago.

He seemed to be waiting here for a long time, looking forward to it.So when Fang Jue just came into view, the young man spotted him.

Facing Fang Jue again, the young man was still a little nervous and shy, not daring to look Fang Jue in the eye.But he still remembered his mission, so he stepped forward and handed Fang Jue a square instrument.

Fang Jue didn't answer, and conveyed vigilance and doubts with his eyes.

"Ms. Zhang asked me to give it to you." The young man said, "It contains all the answers you want to know."

Seeing Fang Jue taking it, the young man distractedly glanced at Jiang Bieqiu next to him, and said with a smile: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

Fang Jue originally wanted to ask Zhang Yuting himself, but it seemed that Zhang Yuting didn't intend to meet him.

The square instrument in his hand looks like an old recorder. Both the touch and appearance look old. Fang Jue slowly rubbed the corners of the instrument, raised his head and asked, "Does my mother have anything to convey to me?"

The young man had already walked a long way, but when he heard the words, he turned his head and replied without any surprise: "Yes."

"If I don't ask, you won't tell?"

"Yes." The young man nodded and sighed, "Ms. Zhang explained it this way. You and her are worthy of being mother and son. You don't need to express what you think."

After sighing, the young man turned serious.As his expression changed, he deliberately imitated Zhang Yuting's tone, which was cold and devoid of any emotion.

"I know you want to ask, what exactly are your responsibilities, what do you need to do - but to tell you the truth, I don't know either."

"I only know that you have shouldered this responsibility since you were born."

"As for why I didn't tell you that you don't have entropy, I believe you already have the answer."

"If you leave this time, you don't need to go back to the Twilight Tower, and you don't need to see me. Unless the entropy value completely disappears, I will not open the gate of the tower area again. I must preserve the last piece of pure land in the human base."

Why?For a moment, Fang Jue didn't think about it.

Instead, my thoughts flew far and far away, falling to many years.He vaguely remembered that when he was young, he still had a little dependence on Zhang Yuting, which was normal, the natural attachment of animal cubs to their mothers.It was also in his youth that Zhang Yuting cut off this dependence with his own hands.

But at the same time, Zhang Yuting put a circle on Fang Jue's head again.While watching him groping forward on the road of growth with cold eyes, at the same time, he was unwilling to let him go away from his side.

The former is due to responsibility, and the latter, perhaps, is a mother's instinctive desire to control.

But sometimes Fang Jue felt that Zhang Yuting was deliberately cultivating his sense of alienation from the world.

He was taught to be calm, rational, indifferent, and decisive while possessing empathy.He should not have a connection with the world, but should be kept in a box as a kindling until the time comes when it needs to burn.

Zhang Yuting seemed to believe that as a fire seed, he would do some feat of burning his body and lighting a lamp, so he treated him indifferently, not letting his feelings bind him, except occasionally revealing a little real thought.

It's very strange that Zhang Yuting obviously didn't say anything, but at this moment, just listening to those few words that sounded like farewell, Fang Jue already understood.

Fang Jue felt uneasy for a long time, and subconsciously looked at Jiang Bieqiu who was standing beside him.

The young man was extremely patient, even if he was not at ease, he did not show the slightest sign.

So the restless thoughts in Fang Jue's heart gradually faded away.

He nodded, put away the instrument calmly, and said to the young man, "I understand, thank you."

"Okay, okay." The young man nodded repeatedly, "Then... do you have anything to say to me?"

Fang Jue lowered his head and thought for a while, and realized that the relationship between himself and Zhang Yuting was no longer like a mother and son, and it was meaningless to talk more.

Besides, he couldn't think of anything to impress Zhang Yuting—he wasn't good at it either.

"No." Fang Jue said, "I'm gone, probably... I won't come back."

The entropy is completely exposed in the base, the future is endless, and the trip to the Big Star is just around the corner. There is no need for him to return to this self-deceiving tower of stability.

So far, no entropy has appeared in the Twilight Tower, which should be due to Zhang Yuting.In a place where information is closed and foreign objects cannot be affected, this place can indeed be regarded as a paradise.

——Until the entropy value in the superhuman body exploded completely.

Let Zhang Yuting stay here as the last line of defense for the human base.

He and Jiang Bieqiu returned the same way.

After walking a few steps, Fang Jue's keen perception suddenly noticed a faint gaze, and he suddenly turned his head to look back, but that gaze disappeared inexplicably.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Bieqiu asked.

"It's okay." Fang Jue shook his head, and walked up the arch bridge with Jiang Bieqiu again, getting farther and farther away from the Dusk Tower.

As for the towering building standing not far behind the arch bridge, one of the windows was wide open, as if someone was standing there, looking at Fang Jue's back as he left.

On the way back, the chaotic crowd calmed down a lot.There are no longer unorganized and ungrouped people fleeing in all directions, and most of them have also been transferred to relatively safe areas.

Jiang Bieqiu followed Fang Jue, holding back for a long time, but still couldn't help asking, "What charades are you and your mother playing?"

"It's not a riddle." Fang Jue took out the instrument in his pocket and observed it carefully, and said, "I have inherited the rational side of her character, so as long as I understand the logic of her words, I can roughly know what she wants to say."

"...and said it's not a charade."

Fang Jue smiled, and looked at him sideways: "Then what do you want to know, ask me."

At this time, Jiang Bieqiu was silent instead.

He thought a lot, ever since he knew that Fang Jue was the sentinel born of the force of nature, he has been anxious all the time.

Admittedly, this is definitely a good thing for the entire human base, because once there is a second naturally born superhuman who is not affected by entropy, it proves that one day they will get rid of the paradox fate among them.

But for Fang Jue, it might be...

Jiang Bieqiu didn't even dare to move this thought.

"Qiuqiu, your emotions have been conveyed to me." Fang Jue said abruptly.

Jiang Bieqiu was taken aback for a moment, then realized: "I..."

"Do you really have nothing to ask me?" Fang Jue asked again.

Perhaps it was Fang Jue's calmness that infected Jiang Bieqiu. At this moment, he was finally willing to abandon those miscellaneous thoughts in his mind and focus on the person in front of him.

"Yes." Jiang Bieqiu made himself as light as possible, "What did you think when you saw me for the first time?"

"Huh?" Fang Jue was taken aback.He never expected that Jiang Bieqiu would ask this question.

Jiang Bieqiu became even more interested: "If you ask yourself, even if it's hard to say, you have to say it."

Fang Jue came back to his senses: "Why am I so hard to say? This word should be used on you, right?"

Jiang Bieqiu: "?"

Fang Jue turned his head slightly, deliberately imitating Jiang Bieqiu's tone, and said, "This handsome guy's lips look soft, I don't know how it feels to kiss him."

Jiang Bieqiu: "..."

Jiang Bieqiu: "..."

He should have known that if he wanted to see Fang Jue's jokes, he would eventually turn himself into a joke.

Obviously, he had kissed his mouth, put him on the bed and touched his whole body, but he came to ask this kind of question, now it's all right, the embarrassment is still Jiang Bieqiu himself.

After the combination, many thoughts and ideas will be passed on to the other party inadvertently, and this first impression was captured by Fang Jue during an intimate contact.But he still suppressed it in his heart and didn't say it until he found the right time to kill him with a blow.

As expected of you, Fang Jue.

Jiang Bieqiu simply broke his can and began to say the quotes of a scumbag: "You look attractive, do you blame me?"

"Blame me." Fang Jue agreed, but the slight vibration in his chest betrayed him.

It's fine to embarrass yourself once, but it's not like Professor Jiang who is able to handle the world with ease.But at this moment, Jiang Bieqiu didn't feel annoyed, nor was he angry, and the uncertain state of mind just now miraculously calmed down.

He knew that there was also the effect of Fang Jue's deliberate appeasement.

Jiang Bieqiu turned his head, stared at the corner of Fang Jue's smooth jaw with a smile for a moment, and then said proudly: "It's so good-looking, it's not mine."

They went all the way back to the Tower of Dawn area, and before the two of them had time to fiddle with the equipment, the signal from the Tower of Dawn lit up.

The monitoring bracelet is the only tool that can communicate with the Tower of Dawn.Its image did not appear, only the distorted sound was transmitted.

"Qiuqiu, I'll arrange for you to go to Big Star in three hours, do you have any questions?"

"So fast?" Jiang Bieqiu was stunned for a moment, "Did something happen?"

He has no objection, he is eager to go to Big Star as soon as possible, maybe he can find the traces left by Jiang Xingzhi's activities back then and solve the mystery.

It's just the tone of the Tower of Dawn, it doesn't sound like it's ready.

The Tower of Dawn was silent for a while, and asked instead: "... Is Fang Jue by your side?"

"What does it have to do with him? He belongs to me, not from the Dawn District." Jiang Bieqiu said impatiently, "You haven't cleared up the suspicion of diffusion entropy, Ta, I don't want to hear what you say about Fang Jue anything."

A hand patted Jiang Bieqiu's shoulder reassuringly.

Afterwards, the owner of the hand turned the bracelet and pointed the receiver at himself: "I'm here, what's wrong?"

"Officer Fang, I need your help." Dawn Tower's tone implied urgency, "Many ordinary people in the Dawn District gathered to make trouble, demanding to kill all the supernatural beings to preserve the safety of the human base."

"Sick?" Jiang Bieqiu said coldly, "Let them survive the influence of entropy, and now they want to die? If you want to die, what does it matter to us?"

"Qiuqiu, what are you making a fuss about? If you don't stabilize them now, if the entropy spreads, everyone will be wiped out!"

Jiang Bieqiu let out a few breaths and calmed down for a moment: "Then I'll go, Fang Jue will stay in the dormitory."

"Fang Jue is the most suitable executive officer of the Twilight Tower. In your capacity, going there is like pouring water into a frying pan. They all know that Bai Lu and Jiang Xingzhi are you..."

"It's my parents, so what?"

Jiang Bieqiu knew that what Liming Tower said was correct, and subconsciously he was willing to listen to what Liming Tower said, but when he thought of Fang Jue's specialness, that nameless sense of anxiety rose again inexplicably.

Jiang Bieqiu knew that Fang Jue didn't need protection, but... as his guide, what's wrong with possessiveness?

Why does the Tower of Dawn depend on Fang Jue for everything?He just didn't want Fang Jue to face any danger, what's wrong?

"You're not like this, Qiuqiu." Dawn Tower's tone was heavy, "I have to doubt whether you are affected by entropy."

There are cracks in trust, and if we continue to talk, it is estimated that the talk will collapse.Liming Tower didn't understand where Jiang Bieqiu's emotions came from, and didn't want to have a meaningless quarrel with him at this time, so he could only target Fang Jue.

"Officer Fang..."

Fang Jue said lightly: "How is the situation at the scene?"

"The people in the military region are in control, it's okay, but they still need to stabilize their emotions...I think..."

"I see. Thank you for your support. I'll be right there."

After finishing speaking, Fang Jue simply hung up the communication.Then he turned around and pinched Jiang Bieqiu's chin: "Jiang Bieqiu, come with me."
