On how to play HE

"I have to leave school because I have to do something, but I am afraid that my brother will be lonely waiting at school alone, so I specially find someone to accompany me...Tianluo really loves this brother Mu Ze very much."

"Of course, the only younger brother." He Tianluo patted He Muze's back casually while speaking.

He Muze, who lowered his head and endured the light slap, felt mixed feelings in his heart.

Too many emotions are mixed together, and I can't tell them clearly.

Lonely...happy...sad...unreconciled...

At that time, he was finally willing to walk out of the gate of his hometown again.

I try my best to restrain my resistance to "seeing a monster".

Trying hard to restrain the feeling of wanting to scream after seeing that world again.

So scary... so scary... so scary...

But it won't work if you don't face it... If you keep avoiding it, it will only make things worse.

"You are Tian Luo's younger brother?"

Gentle look, kind smile, gentle eyes.There are also cute gestures.

Pretending not to see the sneaky monsters whispering in the corner of the dark corridor, when he found brother's classroom according to the class number, it was such a person that caught his eyes.

Although that guy is chatty and familiar.But the line of sight is naturally drawn, and the fear and discomfort are released bit by bit.

"My name is Gu Ningning, and I'm Tianluo's friend and classmate. What's your name?...Ah, I don't know your name because I forgot it. ——It's Tianluo after all. My fault, I ran away alone without explaining anything clearly!"

"My name is... He Muze."

"Is that He Muze? Well, I remember!" Gu Ningning rolled his eyes with a smile, "Speaking of it... That guy Tianluo is really too much, he left the duty student to his classmates, and his younger brother didn't care, just by himself Running away, it is simply unforgivable! Before he comes back, let's talk bad things about that guy Tianluo, shall we?"

……

At that time, my elder brother must have thought that he would be afraid to go back to the courtyard where monsters tend to gather alone, so he let Gu Ningning stay with him at school, right?

And Gu Ningning is also so kind to him because of his brother's relationship...

Yes, that's all.

In any case, in Ningning's mind, his identity has always been "Tianluo's younger brother"...

He was actually very grateful.

No matter what, to have such a big brother and to meet such Gu Ningning has made him very grateful.

So, you should just remember that gratitude...

You shouldn't... expect more.

After lunch, it was almost time for the afternoon program to start.

Some people were already sitting on the playground, and they all returned to their own class areas.

When He Muze found his original seat, he found that Yi Jia was already there.

He crossed his arms and hugged his knees, staring at the ground for a moment.The black ponytail also hangs listlessly on his chest.

"Yijia..." He asked tentatively, but the other party didn't respond at all, "Yijia?"

After calling several times in a row, she raised her head as if she had just heard it, but her usual spirited smile was a little tired: "Ah, Mu Ze."

"Are you OK?"

"Huh? Why should I have something to do?"

"This one……"

As if he didn't want to say anything.

"Although I can't be a reliable guy... But if there is anything that bothers you, you can discuss it with me. If there is anything I can help, I will do my best."

Chen Yijia looked at He Muze, completely stunned.

"That... I may not express it well..." He Muze scratched his head and said hesitantly, "Because Yijia's words in the morning gave me a feeling of being 'saved', so... thank you .”

"Hahaha... what... I didn't say that just to make you say thank you." Chen Yijia's frozen expression seemed to have been thawed, and suddenly he burst out laughing, "You The guy is too frank...it actually makes me feel embarrassed..."

"Yes, is it...?"

"You don't have to panic, I don't mean to blame you." Chen Yijia's shoulders were still trembling with the frequency of her laughter.

"fine……"

"But, yes." Yijia raised her eyes, her eyes were crystal clear and bright, "Well... that's right. If there is a need, I will ask Mu Ze to help."

As she said that, she suddenly turned her head and burst into a soft smile——

"Even if you say you can't help at that time, you will be forced to help—!"

"……Um."

He Muze nodded slightly, then smiled.

The distance between people is really amazing sometimes.

Obviously, the person who has been intentionally keeping a distance from others is himself.

But when someone really came within that wall, came to the distance where they could give each other strength by reaching out their hands.

But unexpectedly feel...

It's so warm.

The afternoon program came to an end before we knew it.

After the lengthy principal's speech, most of the students in most classes picked up their chairs and stools and walked away freely, except for a few classes who were left by the head teacher to say some precautions.

He Muze, He Tianluo, and Gu Ningning followed Chen Yijia to return the stool.

Several people walked through the school aisle, walked out of the back school gate, turned into a narrow alley, and arrived at the gate of the ancient black house after not walking many steps.

Just when Chen Yijia was about to take the lead to enter the door, He Muze's expression suddenly changed.

When He Tianluo saw He Muze's face changed, he instantly became vigilant, subconsciously stopped He Muze who was beside him, and rushed into the store before everyone else.

"how so……"

He Tianluo froze inside the door, unable to move.

The black mist that fills the room——

It blocked the sight of everyone other than Gu Ningning.

He Muze frowned: "A lot of black demonic energy rose from these people. It filled the whole room."

Only then did they notice that there were still several people lying down on the ground.It seemed that they all lost consciousness.

He Tianluo took out the triangular needle and pierced the wrist of one of them, and spread his hand towards He Muze.

Without further ado, He Muze consciously stuffed He Tianluo with a dozen wooden bookmarks: "I made them for you. These should be enough for a while."

After using a bookmark to lure out a black seed, He Tianluo sighed: "Sure enough, it's the seed of Dandelion Nightmare again." Then he went to tie another person's wrist.

Chen Yijia looked at the circle of yellow talisman paper wrapped with black nightmare seeds on the ground, and took a deep breath: "Why are there so many?"

"What? Are the talisman seeds the seeds of the dandelion nightmare you mentioned?" Gu Ningning asked in surprise, "There are so many people lying on the ground, should an ambulance be called?" She took out her phone from her bag Just going to call.

But He Tianluo grabbed her: "No need. They are fine, they should wake up in a while."

"..." Ning Ning glanced at Tian Luo, took a deep breath, and put the phone back.

"Wait...!" Chen Yijia suddenly turned pale, and gradually became flustered, "—where's brother?!"

Chen Yijia ran up to the attic, and then ran down again.

His face was so pale that it lost all color:

"It's gone... my brother - he's gone..."

"Calm down, Yijia." Gu Ningning pressed her shoulder, "Let's look around."

"Ningning is right, don't panic." He Tianluo said calmly, "Think about where your brother will go."

"I don't know...I don't know..." Chen Yijia raised her hand in confusion, spread her ten fingers convulsively, her eyes wandered around in a panic, "It's all my fault...it's all my fault..."

"In short...it's best not to let other people see this situation, let's close the door first." Gu Ningning smiled awkwardly and clapped his hands together, trying to ease the atmosphere.

He Tianluo nodded, and He Muze had already started to close the door.

Just when the door was about to be completely closed, a weasel monster rushed in through the crack of the door.

"'Yo, Kokizawa.' Our lady asked us to pass this sentence to Mr. Kizawa after we found Mr. Kizawa."

The weasel monster raised its head and looked directly at He Muze.

"...It doesn't make any sense whether this sentence is passed on or not. But, what can I do for you?" He Muze looked at it seriously.

The weasel monster did not answer Mu Ze's question directly, but said to himself: "In fact, after learning that there are monsters spreading dandelion nightmares, our lady began to arrange for us to follow the people who had contact with you. The owner of the shop is really being watched by us."

Chen Yijia hurried forward: "Then he is now—?"

"Listen to me first, we have found the Dandelion Nightmare. It's not a Nightmare, it's a real Dandelion Nightmare."

"What?" Several people were surprised.

"The matter started when the vice principal of Zhiyuan High School came here to discuss the future rent of the shop with Chen Yijia's brother Chen Qing. The shop opened by Chen Qing seemed to be one of the shops owned by the vice principal. He said that since Chen Yijia was Gu For the sake of Ningning's friends, the future rent can be 2000 yuan cheaper than before."

"For Gu Ningning's sake?" He Tianluo looked at Gu Ningning in surprise.

Gu Ningning lowered his head slightly: "The vice principal... is actually my father."

"Hmm." He Tianluo stroked his chin and looked at the weasel monster, "And then?"

"Originally, the vice principal was talking and laughing happily, but for some reason, several nightmare species suddenly appeared on him, and they attached themselves to the customers in the store at a very fast speed. He acted very flustered, and immediately said that he was going to leave, and accidentally kicked him over. But when he got nervous, more nightmares emerged from his body. We saw several of them attached to the body of Chen Qing who was closest to him, and the other nightmares were even worse. All the rest of the people in the store are attached."

"What?" Gu Ningning exclaimed, "Dad...how could...he is such a good person..."

He Tianluo looked at Gu Ningning calmly: "Don't worry, just wait for it to continue."

The weasel monster nodded: "The vice-principal saw that the situation was not good at the time, so he didn't care so much, so he left the shop in a hurry. We divided up several clansmen to chase after him, but he suddenly accelerated, and we couldn't Catch up. Seeing that Chen Qing also ran out, we gave up on the vice principal and followed Chen Qing."

He Tianluo: "It sounds like Ningning's father didn't intentionally spread the nightmare seeds... and the seal stone of Dandelion Nightmare was lost three years ago..." He looked at Gu Ningning seriously, "Ningning, Did anything special happen to your dad three years ago?"

Gu Ningning: "Four years ago, my father had a car accident and became a vegetable. One day after a year, he suddenly woke up miraculously."

He Tianluo rubbed his chin: "Then he probably woke up because he was possessed by the Dandelion Nightmare. It's a bit tricky... The real Dandelion Nightmare should not be as easy to deal with as the Nightmare Kind. Hmm... Gu Both Ning Ning's mother and Chen Yijia's brother have had direct contact with the vice principal, and Tan Shuang, as a member of our school, is hardly immune, but I need to confirm the rest, —— your father and Gao What is the relationship with Wu Middle School?"

Gu Ningning confessed honestly: "Dad, he...is a guest lecturer at Gaowu High School."

"Then what is his relationship with the hospital Zeng Wenshan is in?"

Gu Ningning thought for a while and said, "I don't know about it...but Dad has the habit of donating money to small private hospitals. Maybe it's Zeng Wenshan who I met through this way."

"Then Lu Yuan...?"

"I don't know if my father has ever been in touch with Lu Yuan... But the restaurant where Lu Yuan first invited me to dinner, my parents used to go there every year... Maybe my father and others will go there too?" At the end, Gu Ningning's eyes were a little dark.

"Understood." He Tianluo nodded, "Then it's probably him."

Gu Ningning covered her face with her hands: "Then dad... then I... what should I do now?"

He Tianluo: "Don't worry, there is always a solution. I will give you back a normal father who is not possessed by Dandelion Nightmare, okay?"

Hearing this, Gu Ningning threw herself into He Tianluo's arms and cried bitterly: "You must do what you say..."

He Tianluo pushed Gu Ningning away in embarrassment: "Well, if he can't come back, you can settle the score with me."

And Chen Yijia looked at the weasel monster nervously: "Then... where is my brother now?"

"He is trying to go west to the alley in front of the door, and our clansmen are trying their best to block his progress. If you chase out now, you should be able to catch up with him before he breaks through our clansman and runs to the street... ..."

Before it finished speaking, Chen Yijia had already chased it out.

The rest can only keep up.
