Played by the devil in the palm of his hand

Do you think you can win this game?

"I...I really can't remember, even if you force me like this..." Xu Chi broke down a bit, "Why do you always get along with me? Have I provoke you? Have I ever hurt you? You are so, so..."

Jun Ye just looked at him calmly, then stretched out his hand to stroke his hair, his fingers slid down the back of his head and fell to his neck.The agarwood-like stability in him was also passed on to Xu Chi, which calmed him down a little.

"There is no causal relationship without a reason in the world. I must have my own reasons for treating you like this. You just need to watch quietly."

Jun Ye took out the remote control and pressed some button, the wall in front of him suddenly opened silently like a door to both sides, revealing the large LCD screen embedded in the middle.

Then the screen turned on, and Xu Chi saw a speeding train appear on the screen, and then the camera slowly zoomed in, and Edward and Anna appeared on the screen.It looked like a surveillance camera, but it was shaking constantly and seemed very unstable. Xu Chi guessed that it might be taken by an aerial camera.

He instantly recalled some very bad and painful memories, his body tensed up, and fine cold sweat oozes from his back.As if seeing his thoughts, Jun Ye smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is a real-time shooting, you can just watch it here and see how they want to stop the train."

……

To stop the train, you must go to the cab at the front of the train.But there are bound to be zombies in the cab, so we must be careful.

Edward nodded to Anna, and motioned: "I'll be responsible for blocking the zombies in the carriage later, and you go to apply the emergency brake."

Anna said that she understood, and the two fell off the roof of the car, one on the left and one on the right.Edward aimed the crossbow at the corner of the window of the driver's cab, pressed the spring with his finger, and the short arrow pierced through the air. The sharp metal tip passed through the glass, and then got stuck there. Several cracks came from the place where it was shot. Spread out and form cracks.

Edward kicked it, and the glass window was completely shattered. He used his strength to jump in, rolled on the ground to relieve the momentum, and saw Anna jump in as soon as he stood still.

He gestured for Anna to go to the driver's seat to look for the emergency brake valve, and he pulled out his short knife to look around the car.

Looking around, there are actually six zombies crowded in the narrow cab, all of them are wearing the captain's uniform or flight attendant overalls, and the door connecting the cab to the No. The movement to this side rushed over and tore the two of them into pieces.

In particular, he still smelled of blood. Almost as soon as he entered the cab, the flight attendant zombies found him and wobbled towards him.

Edward slashed his neck with the knife, and dodged to avoid spraying himself with blood and mucus.Out of caution, before facing the battle, Edward first closed the door between the No. [-] compartment and the driver's cab.

Although it is just a thin frosted glass door, it is not even bulletproof glass, it is the kind of frosted glass in ordinary families that can be broken with a knee.

But it's better than nothing, it can always block the attraction of zombies by sound and smell a little bit.

Anna took the opportunity to run to the driver's seat to look for the brake valve. Edward kicked away the rushing zombies while urging, "Hurry up!"

"I'm looking for it!" Anna was drenched in sweat, her eyes flicked over the dazzling steering wheel.The structure of the old-style trains is a bit different from the current ones, and ordinary people without experience really can't find the position of the brake valve in a short time.

As mercenaries, they have been trained to drive cars, motorboats, and helicopters, but who the hell would have thought that one day they would drive trains!

The zombies in the No. [-] car had already sensed the commotion coming from the cab, and gradually approached the glass door.The door had not yet been locked, so Edward could only use his back against the door to prevent the zombies from breaking through the glass. At the same time, he had to deal with the few in the cab, which was really stretched for a while.

The commander zombie was obviously the strongest among these zombies. He roared and rushed towards Edward, about to bite his neck with his mouth open.

The impact was so strong that Edward, who was leaning against the door with his back, nearly shattered the glass when he bumped into it.

Edward supported the door frame with one hand, stabbed the tip of the knife into the zombie's wide open mouth, and inserted it directly into the depths of the throat. With a twist of his wrist, the blade rotated, making a big hole in the opponent's throat, and blood spurted out instantly. Edward dodged Suddenly, most of the blood was splashed on the glass door, and a small part was splashed on the clothes.

Edward frowned and pushed away the dead zombie, and asked loudly, "Have you found it yet...!"

The voice stopped abruptly, and the sound of glass shattering suddenly came from behind.But it wasn't that the whole piece of glass was broken, but it was as if a small hole had been poked by something sharp. The sound was the same as when Edward broke the window with a crossbow arrow.

Immediately afterwards, he felt a piercing pain in his back—a female zombie in the No. [-] carriage held a screwdriver, pierced the glass with the tip, and pierced Edward's heart from behind.

The wound was very small. After all, the screwdriver was very thin, not as thick as a girl's little finger, but it passed through Edward's heart. Almost instantly, Edward felt his brain humming, a sharp tinnitus sounded in his ears, and his vision quickly blurred. It was almost impossible to see what was in the compartment.

The screwdriver was pulled out by the zombie, and the glass door had already formed cracks around the small round hole, and it was in danger. Edward sat on the ground leaning on the door, thinking not how to do first aid, but calculating:

In 40 seconds, the train is about to rush into the lava. Can Anna stop the train?

The voice on his side was so soft that Anna didn't even notice the situation on his side.She finally found the brake valve, smashed the glass protective plate on it with a fist, and yanked the handbrake down hard!

The train whistled deafeningly, and drove towards the cliff at an unabated speed. Anna's eyes widened in disbelief, and she subconsciously pulled a few more times.

Useless!The emergency brake valve of this train has been destroyed long ago, it is impossible to stop the train at all!

Through the front window, Anna could already see the edge of the cliff clearly. The surrounding temperature was as high as forty degrees, and the cab was as hot as a steamer. Not far away, there was a river of orange-red lava rolling in the cliff, waiting to swallow them up. Exhausted.

It's over, it's over.

Xu Chi's face lost all color, his body trembled violently, and he could hardly breathe. He reached out and grabbed the corner of Jun Ye's clothes, his breath was disordered, and he almost begged with a crying voice, "No, please, let it go!" They...only the two of them must not die, please..."

Jun Ye stared at the big screen in front of him, as if thinking of something long ago, sighed slightly, "Yes, they are very important to you, but which one is the most important to you?"

Xu Chi was slightly taken aback, "What?"

A gun appeared in Jun Ye's hand, a black Colt M2000 pistol.

This is the firearm that Xu Chi has carried with him since he set foot in Chang'an Town. There are seven bullets in total. One is a meeting gift that Xu Chi gave to Jun Ye when we first met, and three were used on Lingya when he attacked Edward. Two were spent in the Jack the Ripper game, so now there is only one bullet left in the chamber.

Jun Ye put the gun in Xu Chi's hand, closed his hands and instructed him to hold the handle of the gun, and gently hugged him from behind, like teaching beginners to shoot, patiently held up his arm, pointing the muzzle at Xu Chi. Screen.

Jun Ye whispered in his ear: "This is a special room. Bullets can pass through the screen and reach the real carriage. That is to say, as long as you shoot at anyone, they will die. Choose one, choose one for you Think the most important, then shoot the other, and the rest will live."

"No..." Xu Chi's fingers trembled convulsively, and he could hardly hold the gun. He wanted to resist, to throw the gun away, and kept shrinking back, but Jun Ye suppressed him almost ruthlessly, Don't let him escape.

Xu Chi begged, "No, I can't... Please, I can't do it..."

"You can do it, you've obviously done it once."

"You have to choose, two people can only live one."

... who you choose, who you kill...

Xu Chi suddenly felt a sharp pain explode in his head, his hand shook, and the pistol slammed to the ground.

It hurt so much, he couldn't help but curled up and hugged his head.The whole person seemed to be unable to perceive the outside world, his consciousness sank into the sea, the huge pressure oppressed and tore him, the light was rapidly fading away, the bubbles floated to the surface of the sea along the current, but he was pulled into the dark seabed.

And there, I saw the old memories that were deliberately dusted.

……

At noon, Xu Chi stood at the door, put on a light brown coat, looked around in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, and asked casually, "Does this look good?"

"It's beautiful." The boy answered while chopping vegetables, and then he suddenly woke up. A man like Xu Chi, who has always been able to wear whatever he wants, and can go downstairs to the convenience store in sports shorts in winter, actually cares about himself today. wear?

Not right.

There was only one situation where Xu Chi would dress up a little bit, and that was when he met girls.

The boy trotted into the living room with a kitchen knife in his hand, staring at Xu Chi with dim blue eyes.

"Where are you going?"

Xu Chi adjusted his collar in front of the mirror, "Go to the station to pick up Anna. Didn't I say the day before yesterday that she would come today?"

"Ah, it's all over now, that's all right, look at home for a while, I'll go back when I go." Xu Chi put on his shoes, grabbed his keys, wallet and mobile phone in a hurry, and hurried out without even closing the door.

The boy stood in the living room for a while, until the pot in the kitchen boiled and made a bubbling sound, then he turned around slowly and went back.

He actually didn't like that woman named Anna coming here suddenly. This feeling was very uncomfortable, just like he and Xu Chi had a good life, but someone suddenly stepped in.

But since Xu Chi said that she was only staying here for a while, can she be regarded as a guest?

If it is the same as Xu Chi's host status, entertaining guests who came from afar and only stayed for a while, then it is not unbearable.

Thinking of this, the boy felt a little more comfortable, and poured the chopped vegetables into the pot.

There are a few uninvited guests slowly approaching outside the door, the boy knows it, or rather, he knows that someone is staring at this place since a few days ago.But the boy didn't take any action to stop it, nor did he intend to control it. He is used to being an observer in this world, observing all human behaviors and movements quietly.

The boy wanted to see what those people were up to.
