?A person seems to be making different choices throughout his life. The result of each choice may be a comedy, but if it is a tragedy, he can only comfort himself. Maybe the result of another choice is even more tragic than the current one, because compared to real pain , people, probably more afraid of the unknown.

Unknown, there are too many uncertainties, and too many unbearable truths.

But... want to know.

Wondering anyway.

Escapism?face the truth?

Actually, it's all the same.

Cole stared quietly at Simon's pupils, and after an unknown amount of time, he finally moved the corner of his mouth, glanced at the head slightly, and said in a low voice: "...if it's possible," he paused for a while, and closed his eyes gently. Upper eye, "I hope you don't say anything."

Sometimes, facing the truth is not because of bravery, but because of the lack of courage to face the unknown. In fact, the reason is just that I am afraid that my heart will be hurt, I will not be able to continue to trust that person, and I will find that what I insist on It was a joke.

Always, always... you know, don't you?

Unexpectedly, Simon closed his eyes and smiled, "It really seems like something you can say." Then he glanced at the figure of Cole who was carefully hugging Palanch, and said lightly, "Why, do you really want to take him back? "

"Ah." He responded softly, and carefully grasped the person he was holding.

Palanch was unconscious, just staring wide-eyed, staring blankly at the sky, his hands hanging down like branches.

Seeing this, Simon said: "Tie up his hands and feet, it will be very troublesome after the anesthetic wears off."

"..."

Although I don't want to, there's nothing I can do. I'm fine, but if I hurt Bryce, this is what Cole doesn't want to see

.

So carefully bind the hands and feet, not too loose, not too tight.

Seeing Cole doing this, Simon couldn't help laughing and asked, "He's dead and won't feel pain. Why do you care so much about the feeling of a body?"

"I care about my feelings." Cole said, "I...can't treat him so cruelly."

"What a nice guy." With a snort, Simon Baker glanced at him, "I really don't know how you raised such a crooked guy as Norman."

"..."

"Why, don't you refute me?" She raised her eyebrows and asked intentionally.

Shaking his head, Cole lowered his head slightly, and said in a low voice, "Because I can't refute it. I do have a large part of the responsibility for Norman becoming like this. I have to be so impatient, if I hadn't forgotten him...a person who has experienced the struggle of life and death, the most fearful thing is to be forgotten, if he is abandoned by the person he likes, he might as well die." Saying these words A complicated smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

Simon saw it, and then turned his head: "It seems to be true, have you ever had a similar experience?"

"Yes." Cole said.

But in exchange for Simon's puzzled eyes.

Slowly closing his eyes, Cole opened his mouth bitterly and slightly: "That feeling of being ignored until death is so painful, but compared to the pain of being forgotten, what is that..." Then he opened his eyes. Opening his eyes, he gently stroked Palanch's forehead, tears welling in his eyes, "When you know that long-term expectations are nothing but nothing in the heart of the most important person, and when you know that the fantasy you once had It turns out that it is really just a fantasy, without any weight, it is so pale, it is something that can disappear in the blink of an eye, and you will lose the strength to chase the truth."

In a daze, Simon looked at Cole, who had unusually serious eyes: "...so you don't want to know anything."

"It will be very tiring." Cole leaned over and smiled faintly.

For some reason, that smile made Simon feel distressed, so he turned his head and whispered, "It's a strange reason."

"Yeah," shrugged self-deprecatingly, "maybe I'm just a weird person."

The two were silent for a moment, and Simon suddenly said, "Let's go."

"Eh?"

"What are you in a daze for? Go back quickly, be careful that you, Zumu, are in a hurry." After speaking, he cast a urging look.

I really followed all the way, and I didn't know anything.

Looking at Simon in embarrassment, Cole saw that he wanted to go back together, so he didn't stop him. Anyway, one more person now has more strength. Besides, in Palanch's situation, Cole needs someone to help, so he went Without saying anything, let Simon go back with him.

However, Bryce stared at Simon at close range for a long time, which made Simon's back feel chills.

"Hey," asked Cole for help, "what's the matter with you, Zum."

Cole laughed a few times, and Bryce didn't wait for Cole to speak, and continued: "Why, you can't do it? Seeing that you are so strong, to be honest, I am very dissatisfied, but if you You have to follow my family Cole, I still reluctantly agree."

After all, he put on a embarrassed frown.

Cole was sweating, and hurriedly pulled Bryce, looked at the livid Simon with regret, and then whispered: "Bryce, did you make a mistake, isn't he..."

"I know," Bryce gave Cole a white look, "he's not Norman, but I think he looks pretty decent, hehehe..."

Hehehe what, Cole's head is getting bigger.

Looking back at Simon, who was looking unhappy, he couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and said to Bryce: "It's true, he has nothing to do with me, er, he's just a friend... a friend who is in the same business."

It doesn't seem appropriate to say that you are an enemy, so let's treat it as a friend, although Simon will definitely refute himself.

And Bryce smiled even more mysteriously, a smile that made people feel uncomfortable. He hugged Cole, frowned, and whispered: "But, Cole, that kid followed us all the way .”

"You... know?" Cole was surprised.

"Why don't you know?"

"..." Because even I didn't realize it!

"The child occasionally appears nearby when everyone is resting. I have seen it because I am a light sleeper. He occasionally leans over in the middle of the night to help us add some firewood or something."

Cole couldn't believe Bryce's words.

That Simon who always has a dark face would be so kind?

But thinking about it carefully, apart from Berg's matter, he is indeed a very good person. When he was in the village, they had no prejudice against him.So he turned his head slightly to look at Simon, but just in time to meet his gaze, Cole was startled and turned back.

Clearing his throat, Cole turned his attention to Palanch who was still unable to move, and said, "What about Palanch?"

"What can we do?" Sighing helplessly, Bryce looked at Cole, "You brought people back."

"I couldn't kill him," Cole said.

Bryce also looked embarrassed.

He had no idea, had no way out, couldn't kill him, and couldn't throw it away at will. He was about to fall into a dilemma. Suddenly, a voice came to his ears: "If that's the case, then you can make him food for an unlimited period of time."

This is what Simon said.

But it was Bryce who reacted the most to this. He turned his head curiously and asked, "You said...indefinite food?"

Glancing at Cole, then staring at the people on the ground, Simon said: "It's food, but it's like the owner, feeding him some blood when he's hungry, because he can only move after getting Cole's blood, so Cole is his owner." Raising his eyes slowly, he sighed, "I attacked Cole before because I found my own 'food', so I was so excited."

So this is the reason?

"So, how do you get him under control?" Bryce continued.

"As I said, as long as you give him blood, you can control it, and as for how much..." Simon smiled, "It depends on your own control.

"

"Isn't other people's blood okay? For example... from relatives."

As soon as Cole heard it, he knew what Bryce wanted to say, so he quickly stopped him, and said coldly, "Bryce! Don't ask these nonsense!"

And Simon continued to say nonchalantly: "Of course not," and then he glanced at Bryce, "You can also see that the kid only rushed to Cole, which means that he has identified Cole, which cannot be changed of."

Having said that, Palanch, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shook his body.

Simon sighed: "Here, the anesthetic is about to expire, and the thin rope probably won't last long. It depends on whether you want to kill him or give him blood. Of course, if there is no other way, I will help."

"No need." Cole declined.

The help Simon said was to kill Palanch.

Cole would not allow this to happen.

Seeing Palanch's movements getting bigger and bigger, those two dead pupils stared at him fiercely, and the fragile ropes tied to his hands and feet would continue to be bitten off or rubbed off by Palanch. Yes, straight eyes, full of desire.

Bloodlust.

Cole was not afraid, if he wanted his own blood, then come.

Stretching out his arm, Cole gently placed it in front of Palanch, and Palanch bit it without hesitation, without hesitation.

Blood flowed out from the deep wound.

Violent pain, but compared to distress, this is nothing.

"Cole...!" Bryce came over and grabbed Cole, but Palanch didn't let go.

"It's ok."

"Please feel at ease, it's ridiculous." Simon stood behind, folded his arms, and said coldly.

Cole stared tenderly at Palanch who was sucking his own blood, and said, "You're right, I'm really ridiculous." He lowered his eyes and quietly looked at his blood-stained arm, "Because I'm still I want to try to restore something, maybe some things are hard to get back. Everyone knows the truth, but I just don’t want to lose it like this... so it’s really ridiculous.”?
