[pivot zero] pain

Annihilation, save worry and effort? "

"This choice is naturally better." Jiu Lanshu said condescendingly, "But since there is free labor available, why should I bother?"

Zhui Shengling bit his lower lip firmly, and said after a long while, "It's free, I'm afraid you won't be able to pay the price then!"

"Oh?" Jiu Lanshu sneered, "Then do I have to be full of expectations?"

Knowing that he has no advantage in eloquence, Zhui Shengling pursed his lips tightly and stood up with strength.The waves also arrived at this time, and the strong wind carrying the smelly water vapor made both of them slightly wet.

"..." Zhui Shengling took a deep breath, took a deep look at Jiu Lanshu, turned around and walked towards the castle, Bai Lili was waiting not far away.

"Where are you going?" asked coldly.

"Prepare your luggage." Zhui Shengling grabbed the bloody rose in his hand and forced himself to calm down.

"Really?" Jiu Lanshu said something unclear, then turned around and followed Zhui Shengling.

"What? Are you afraid that I will run away?" Zhui Shengling stopped, stood with his arms folded, and spoke in a bad tone.

"Shape, shadow, no, Li. Did Mr. Zhui Sheng forget?" Jiu Lanshu said each word, satisfied to see that Zhui Shengling's face turned pale again.

The hand in the pocket clenched into a fist and then let go, clenched again, and repeated several times until Zhui Shengling barely suppressed his anger, said "up to you", and walked towards Bai Lili.

Bai Lili shook her head happily when she saw Zhui Shengling, and came up to rub Zhui Shengling's clothes.Zhui Shengling finally showed some smiles and got on his horse.Seeing Jiu Lanshu standing not far away, Zhui Shengling turned cold again, "I'm really sorry, please go back, Senior Jiu Lan."

As soon as the words came out, both of them were a little stunned.Facing the inadvertently blurted address, both of them have not seen each other for a long time.This sudden sound made people feel a little nostalgic.

"Heh," Jiu Lanshu raised the corners of his mouth inexplicably, and said, "How about letting me ride together? Is Mr. Zhuisheng so stingy?"

Zhui Sheng frowned subconsciously, and said, "Even if I agree, Bai Lili will never let you get closer."

"Really?" Jiu Lanshu raised his eyebrows, and before Zhui Shengling had time to react, he grabbed the rein in his hand and easily got on the horse.

"..." Zhui Shengling sucked in a breath of cold air, and subconsciously slammed his elbow back.But he was picked up by Jiu Lanshu, who had been prepared for a long time.

"Look," Jiu Lanshu said with a smile, "Bai Lili doesn't seem to reject me either."

Zhui Shengling glanced at Bai Lili who turned her head to look at them curiously, but found that Bai Lili had no intention of resisting at all, and said angrily, "Get down!"

"The journey is not far, so why does Mr. Zhuisheng let the guests walk back alone?" Jiu Lanshu held the rein and drove Bai Lili towards the castle.Because the posture of holding the rein was like being embraced by Cone Shengling, his whole body stiffened immediately, he was short of breath but didn't know how to deal with the current situation.He also complained vaguely about Bai Lili's inexplicable closeness in his heart.

Feeling the stiffness of the person in front of him, Jiu Lanshu finally swept away the previous depression, and galloped the horse in a good mood.

At this time, the sun had completely climbed up, and fortunately, the trees along the way were covered by shade, and the sunlight could only leak in through the gaps, and the bright small round spots shone on them, causing no harm.The silver hair was blown by the gust of wind, it was the same as what I smelled the night before, but with a deeper fragrance.Jiu Lanshu couldn't help moving forward slightly, trying to distinguish this smell more deeply.This behavior makes the former

The people in front were even more nervous, to the point that they could not wait to draw their guns.

"Heh..." Jiu Lanshu chuckled softly, "Why? Scared?"

"Dream!" Zhui Shengling turned his head and stared at him fiercely with wide-eyed eyes.This cute, wide-eyed look made Jiu Lanshu want to laugh even more.

But he still held back and pretended to be serious, "Aren't you worried that I don't know the way if you don't look at the road?"

"Getting lost is something that will happen to you?" Zhui Sheng asked with zero disdain.

"That's not sure." Jiu Lanshu replied lazily.Leaving Cone Shengling thinking about how to warn Bai Lili of how scary this person is.

But she didn't want to look like its owner, and when she knew that Barrowla hadn't attacked Jiu Lanshu that day, Bai Lili stopped being thorny all over Jiu Lanshu.It is the virtue of its owner: as long as anyone treats him a little better, he will remember to read, open the shell full of thorns, and show the soft heart to the other party.

It's not lack of vigilance or anything else, it's probably just because there are too few people who treat him well.

……

Jiulan Youji looked at the two people who walked in together inexplicably, this kind of atmosphere of peaceful coexistence was almost everything she had dreamed of for many years.But she still couldn't tell the reason, and she felt a little uneasy about this kind of relationship that was tit-for-tat on the surface, but undercurrents were turbulent inside.

The glass reflected the winter mist, she sat in the hall with Senior Lantang and others, waiting for the return of Shu and Ling.This is indeed unusual.Yuuki bit her lower lip, thinking a little unwillingly.

It was as if he had been abandoned by the two of them.It is no longer the center of the two of them's actions, but has become an existence similar to the subordinates of Jia Yuanxiao and others.

"Brother Shu..." She couldn't help but came to Shu's room, hesitated to speak, and didn't think about what to say.

"What's the matter, Yuuki?" She was still as gentle as before, but she always felt that something was missing.

"I think……"

"Jiu Lanshu." She was interrupted before she could speak, and she watched Zhui Shengling come out of Shu's room with two thick ancient books in surprise.Zhui Shengling also saw You Ji, but he didn't show the excited look, but frowned slightly, then looked at Jiu Lanshu and said, "Which book did you say you were going to use?"

Jiu Lanshu approached, took the book in the opponent's hand, frowned slightly, flipped through it, and said something in a low voice.This sentence seemed to annoy Zero, he pulled the book back and said angrily, "Then why don't you go find it yourself!"

Jiu Lanshu grabbed Ling who was walking back, and shrugged helplessly, "Are you a powder barrel? It will blow up at one o'clock." This made Ling Sheng even more annoyed, and even the perennially pale face appeared. There was a slight blush.

Yuki looked at the two people who were talking in a low voice not far away, and felt panic for no reason.Although Shu and Zero's relationship seemed to improve as she wished, it didn't make her happy.

The reason is probably that she bit her lower lip, and now she seems to be unable to get in between the two of them anymore.

……

"Looking forward to your triumphant return." Lan Tang and his subordinates placed their right hands at their hearts, bowed their heads respectfully.Zhui Shengling rode a horse and looked impatiently at the group of vampires not far away.

"Brother Shu..." You Ji clenched her lower lip, this trip with Zhui Shengling repeatedly made her deeply uneasy, "When you come back...are you still...Brother Shu?"

"You Ji." With a gentle tone as usual, Jiu Lanshu smiled while riding on the horse, but gave her a completely unexpected answer.

"In this world, there is no such thing as eternity."

"It's time for you to realize that."

The author has something to say: In fact, Wen Youji has a very low sense of existence...

chapter. Four

Chapter.FourNoble【noble】

There are two things in the world that should not be looked at directly, one is the sun, and the other is the human heart.

—— Keigo Higashino

"It's so cute." The woman in front of her smiled inexplicably.

Zhui Shengling pursed his lips, impatiently avoided the other party's hand, and asked the other party what he wanted to do with his eyes.

"Don't be so nervous, Mr. Zhui Sheng." The pureblood who can be called the most beautiful woman Zhui Shengling has ever seen put down her hands, and tilted her head slightly, "I heard a rumor."

"The twins cursed by bad luck, the most powerful hunter, coveting the level E of the pure blood princess? Can you guess who they are, or are they the same person?"

Cone Shengling turned cold, and didn't care about the vampires around him staring at him, "What's your purpose?"

"I should ask you this question." Bai Lugeng still smiled slightly, but smiled directly on the surface like Jiu Lanshu, "The hunter who attends the pure-blooded party with the pure-blooded king will naturally attract attention. You, What's the purpose?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Zhui Shengling said coldly, turned around and wanted to leave.

"It's a pity that such a beautiful child has such a bad temper." Bailu joked, "Don't you want to know who ruined your family?"

Cone Shengling stopped in his tracks, frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Do you really think that Kusaki Hime, who has been imprisoned for many years, is capable of running out on her own, and just happened to meet your parents, and they happened to kill her lover? Mr. Zhuosheng, you are no longer a child, But Bai Lugeng stopped approaching Zhui Shengling, and looked at him with compassionate eyes, "Don't be fooled by such lies again."

"More." Jiu Lanshu came over at this time, as if he hadn't heard the previous conversation, "What are you talking about with Ling?"

"Zero? How intimate." Bailu's eyes narrowed even more, "It's intriguing to bring President Hunter to this grand banquet instead of his fiancée."

"Are you dissatisfied with this?" Jiu Lanshu frowned.

"How could it be?" Bailu stepped forward and reached out to caress the lower chin of Zhui Shengling.

This made Cone Shengling gasp involuntarily.

"You are too presumptuous." Jiu Lanshu grabbed her wrist, full of disapproval.

"Don't get me wrong," Bai Lu Geng pulled out his hand, looked at Ling who was looking at her vigilantly and smiled, "This is just a small reminder. Your little hunter can't be called safe here.

"Unlike you and me, these boring purebloods prefer to see the 'different' expressions on the face of such a beautiful and cold person compared to that innocent Her Royal Highness the Princess." Kind of obscene.

"Obviously this is nothing to worry about." Jiu Lanshu snorted coldly.

"It's me who is busy." Bai Lu even put on a helpless expression, but said to Ling ambiguously before leaving, "If one day, Mr. Zhuosheng wants to discuss Sakura's secrets with me, my room will always be open for you."

Jiu Lanshu frowned, turned to look at Zhui Shengling who seemed to be thinking, and said angrily, "I never thought that Mr. Zhui Sheng could be so charming."

"It's none of your business." Zhui Shengling left the venue after leaving this sentence.Jiu Lanshu, who was extremely angry, responded to all kinds of invitations with a calm face.

Zhui Shengling walked to the balcony, silently thinking about Bai Lugeng's words.It is true that he had doubts about Fei Yingxian's sudden revenge many years ago, and Yiyi mentioned many times that it was Jiu Lanshu who caused their family's ruin.What exactly is going on?

Zero frowned thoughtfully.Just like what Bailu said, Fei Yingxian had been imprisoned for many years and had become law-abiding, but after finding her beloved, she escaped from the strong confinement and met his parents at this time.

Since that man was originally Fei Yingxian's food back then, why was he recorded in the Zhui Sheng family's kill list?And it happened that during the short time that Fei Yingxian left him, he was met and obliterated by Ling's parents.

Is there someone else behind the scenes?Thinking of this possibility, Zhui Shengling felt that his blood was getting cold gradually, and his back felt a chill.

If Shuji Jiulan really did all of this, does that mean that he and Yiwei were targeted by him when he was 13 years old, no, even younger?Just how scheming is Jiu Lanshu?

"zero?"

Zhui Shengling felt his back go stiff, but forced himself to turn around to pretend to be calm, "What's wrong?"

Jiu Lanshu smiled slightly, "I finally got rid of the group of tigers, just come here to catch my breath."

But now for Zhuo Shengling, the gentle smile on Jiu Lanshu's face can only deepen his fear.How many crimes and tricks are hidden under that gentle skin of fear.So he turned his head in a panic, trying to control the messy breath, "Really?"

Jiu Lanshu leaned forward, shortened the distance, and asked with some concern, "What? Uncomfortable? Still not used to this atmosphere?"

"It's nothing." Cone Shengling tried his best to avoid the opponent's approach, and closed his eyes tightly not to look at him, as if avoiding some scourge.

Jiu Lanshu sensed something was wrong, and stretched out his hand to grab him to ask him, but he heard a horrified scream in the hall.The two frowned and looked in at the same time.

"I'll go and have a look." Hastily dismissing these words, Zhui Shengling walked into the hall without looking at Jiu Lanshu.Jiu Lanshu stood where he was, frowning and looked at Zhui Shengling's back as if fleeing, and took a while to walk in.

"What happened?" All the vampires were obviously relieved when they saw Jiu Lanshu's arrival.

"Lord Shu, I... just went to call Master Huang Li, and then, after that, I saw Master Huang Li's... clothes." The trembling maid explained the situation.

Jiu Lanshu frowned slightly, but still said gently, "I see, you go down and suppress your shock first, and then think about what you missed, can you?"

"Yes, yes! Thank you, Master Shu!" The maid was flattered.

Jiulan turned her head and asked Zhui Shengling who was squatting in front of a pile of luxurious clothes, "What did you find?"

"Dead." Zhui Sheng spoke concisely. He checked the surroundings with a serious expression, "He was murdered, and the one who killed him was his acquaintance, and he was a very powerful pure-blood."

"Where did you come to this conclusion? A hunter is talking nonsense here, and I think you are the most suspicious!" The head of the Chengmo family is not very old, and he seems to be a pureblood who hates hunters very much.

"There is no definite evidence, so please don't speak nonsense, Miss Chengmo." Jiu Lanshu put on a serious face.

This caused Zhui Shengling to give him an inexplicable look, as if puzzled that Jiu Lanshu seemed to be defending his behavior.

"Mr. Zhuisheng, can you tell us where you saw it?" Bailu turned slightly paler, showing some urgency and pain.

Only then did I realize that the dead Level A should be Bai Lugeng's fiancé's Conisheng Ling, and replied with a bit of apology, "There are no signs of fighting around, so the deceased did not struggle during his lifetime, or in other words, it was too late to struggle. He was still on the dance floor two hours before the dance, so he was killed in no more than 10 minutes, and the one who can kill a LevelA so easily and quickly can only be a LevelA, and a Pretty strong LevelA."

"As expected of the strongest hunter." At an inappropriate occasion, a man applauded and praised.Ai Shengling frowned and looked at the man—Ryoji Piaomu, the winner in the battle of the three heirs of the Piaomu family.I wondered how much blood was on his hands.

Zhui Shengling didn't bother to pay attention, but turned his head to look at Bailu Geng.At this time, Bailu also looked at him, showing a shallow smile, although it was full of sadness, but somehow, there was a kind of clarity that made people's heart beat.

"According to what you said, doesn't that mean that we, Level A, killed brother Huangli?" The head of the Chengmo family is indeed too spoiled, and he is not as stable as the other families at all. Think silently.

"That might be it." Although Cheng Mozhengyi is the eldest son, the head of Cheng Mo's family is his younger sister.Obviously he is more stable, but also more unpredictable, "There are seven Level A present, excluding Mr. Huangli, and Mr. Changteng who was not present, five of them are suspected."

"Piaomu-kun is the first time to participate in this kind of gathering, and I have never met Huangli-kun before, so I don't meet the condition of being an acquaintance."

"As for those who can kill Huang Li-kun in such a short period of time, Mieko and I who don't have strong offensive abilities are obviously excluded."

"So, now only Miss Bailu and Lord Jiulan are left." Cheng Mozheng narrowed her eyes slightly, and smiled fearlessly.

"But..." Mei Huizi Chengmo asked, frowning in distress, "Brother Huangli is the fiancé of Sister Bailu."

Jiu Lanshu sneered, "So the conclusion is that I killed Mr. Huangli?"

"How can you say that?" Cheng Mozheng smirked, "How can you speak nonsense when there is no definite evidence?"

Jiu Lanshu narrowed his eyes, and said with a smirk, "Then, what does Cheng Mojun think is the best way to deal with this matter?"

"The passing of a noble and rare Level A is a great loss to the entire blood family. If you don't make a proper reply to the following, it may cause major hidden dangers. Therefore, I suggest," Cheng Mozheng spread his hands, With a look of success, "Master Jiulan, please stay in your room for the time being. Before you find out the truth, please don't do anything to embarrass us."

It was made clear that Jiu Lanshu was going to be placed under house arrest.

"Then, Egret should be the same." Cone Shengling said slowly.

Mei Keiko Chengmo scolded loudly, "How dare you call Sister Bailu by her name! You despicable LevelE!"

Before Jiulanshu had time to get angry, Bailu smiled and said, "Don't say that, Mieko. Mr. Zhuisheng is a very good and powerful hunter, you can't insult him like this."

"Also, Mr. Zhuisheng is not wrong. I am indeed suspicious." Bailu sighed slightly, "No matter who it is, before we find out the murderer, we should remember his passing and endure this grief. And It's not being aggressive and hurting the peace."

"But it's impossible for my sister to kill Brother Huangli." Chengmo Meihuizi pouted, a little angrily.

Jiu Lanshu also didn't pay attention, just looked at Zhui Shengling who was lowering his head, his eyes were dark and unclear.

"Since Miss Bai Lu is so considerate of the overall situation, it's not easy for us to reject this kindness. Then please stay in the room for the time being, these two days." Cheng Mozheng bowed in a very respectful manner, "As for Mr. Zhuisheng, since Lord Jiulan brought it, naturally please stay in the room together."

"Whatever you want." Zhui Shengling frowned slightly, noncommittal.

"Hey," before Bai Lu entered the room, Zhui Shengling caught up with her and asked in a low voice, "Who is in charge behind the scenes?"

Bai Lugeng smiled and said nothing, just stretched out his hand, stroked the palm of Zhui Shengling with his fingertips, and then entered the room.

Cone Shengling opened the note in his hand.It was a sticky note, with the shape of a flower slightly outlined by a black pen.

"Come soon?" Jiu Lanshu, who was walking in front, looked back, and Zhui Shengling had already accepted the note, and walked towards him with his head down.

"What's wrong?" Jiu Lanshu asked, "What did Bailu say again?"

"It's nothing." Zhui Shengling shook his head and walked into the room first.

Although he felt that something was wrong, Jiu Lanshu still didn't ask further, but just followed into the room, thinking about how to solve the current situation.

Zhui Shengling listened to the footsteps behind him, and recalled the promise whether it was a dream or reality: to kill Jiulanshu.

Cone Shengling clenched the sticky note, and told himself even more firmly that he must fulfill this oath.

What was drawn on that note was a lifelike ink orchid.

Chapter.FiveDust【Stardust】

"We breathe death into our lungs like a mote of dust, and live on."

- Haruki Murakami

Sometimes, I will look forward to—hope that I will never meet, get acquainted with, and then separate from these people who I cherish or hate, and things like that.It is very clear in my heart that this kind of thinking is just a pure escape, but I can't help but fantasize like this.

Probably, this is the so-called foundation of human beings.

Even though he is no longer a human being, Zhuo Shengling raised the corners of his mouth mockingly.

"What are you laughing at?" Another room owner who had been ignored all this time suddenly called out.

"...It's nothing." Zhui Shengling said lightly with a cold face.Even if there is really something, it will never let the person in front of him know.

"...Really?" Unexpectedly, the other party did not chase after him as usual.Jiu Lanshu was wearing a formal attire that was not necessary in this room, leaning against the pure black piano, sitting on the piano chair with his legs crossed and straight, his hands in white gloves crossed.Such a solemn and silent Jiu Lanshu was almost never seen by Zhuo Shengling.

"...Have you thought about how to solve the current situation?" After a long time, Zhuo Shengling decided to break the strangely heavy atmosphere, and unconsciously clenched his sleeve with his right hand.

"Do you believe I killed it?" Jiu Lanshu still lowered his head, looking at his hands.

"Huh?" Caught a little unprepared by this question, Zhuo Shengling said hesitantly, "You are the most suspicious."

"I just asked, I killed people, do you believe it or not?" Jiu Lanshu finally raised his eyes and looked straight at Cone Shengling.

This time he was silent for a longer time, so long that Jiu Lanshu thought that he was going to use silence to acquiesce again, so he replied in a soft voice, "...I believe...you don't need to kill him."

Jiu Lanshu raised his eyebrows in surprise, "I thought you would definitely blame me even if everyone didn't think so."

Zhui Shengling frowned displeasedly, "I will not lose my normal sense of right and wrong, Jiu Lanshu."

"Indeed." Jiu Lanshu chuckled, "I couldn't agree more with that."

As he spoke, he changed the subject, "Who do you think it should be?"

"..." Cone Shengling slightly looked away.

"Even if it is a pure-blood who has never lived, you will have unnecessary sympathy. Although I am the only exception." Jiu Lanshu smiled, but did not bring irony, "You also think it should be More egrets."

Looking at Zhui Shengling's face, Jiu Lanshu smiled a little deeper, "Because the grief she showed doesn't seem fake, so you are emotionally denying the analysis made by reason?"

Cone Shengling remained silent, just turned his head, trying to avoid the sight that had been lingering on his face.

"Deceit and deceit are the most important lessons every pure-blood learns." Jiu Lanshu put away his smile and said, "So don't be deceived by them."

Zhui Shengling sneered, "I've seen this from you many times, so I don't need to remind you."

The strange thing is that Jiu Lanshu didn't respond to this, but instead changed the topic, "What do you think her purpose is?"

"Aren't you staying in this cage? No matter who it is, the goal has been achieved." Zhui Shengling sneered coldly.

"She kept us from moving freely during this time, but she didn't object to losing her own freedom."

Cone Shengling faced the opponent who had been analyzing seriously, but he couldn't continue to be sharp, so he could only follow the opponent's words, "This shows that she wants to hide something from us, or what purpose she wants to achieve during this period of time. And Whatever the purpose, this plan does not require her participation."

Jiu Lanshu gave Zhui Shengling a meaningful look, and continued, "It's also possible that she's just paving the way for others."

Cone Shengling frowned, and said, "If this is the case, then the most suspicious candidate should be Cheng Mo Zhengyi."

"I don't think so," Jiu Lanshu touched the tail ring on his right hand, "The Chengmo family has always been committed to disrupting the status quo of the vampire and human worlds, and they are not satisfied with peace. Even so, they are nothing more than clowns playing with power. There is no strength to achieve this ambition, nor enough wisdom to plot secretly."

That's a coincidence, you don't fall for either of these two things.Zhui Shengling wanted to sarcastically say this, clenched his fists, and decided to give up the unnecessary quarrel for the time being.

"...Then who do you think it is?" Zhui Shengling asked.

"Although I haven't seen Huangli many times, I can tell that he is a very negative and pessimistic coward. My subordinates mentioned that Mr. Huangli seems to have always had a tendency to commit suicide. And this tendency has deepened recently. .” Jiu Lanshu frowned.

"Internal response...?" Zhui Sheng Ling murmured, then smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "That is to say, the person who knows this can easily lead him to commit suicide, or be killed without resistance. die."

"There will be no more than three people who know about this matter," Jiu Lanshu said.

"Except you and your subordinates, what's left is..." Zhui Shengling slowly closed his voice, talking about the closest person to Huang Li, only—his fiancée Bai Lugeng.

"I'm curious about what their purpose is." Zhui Shengling said.

"It's nothing more than that I think I've held the royal power for too long, and I want to taste it myself." Jiu Lanshu sneered, his eyes were very cold.

Zhui Shengling felt that such an emotionally exposed Jiu Lanshu was very rare, and the corners of his mouth curled up without even realizing it, "So, how does it taste?"

After speaking, both of them were stunned.Jiu Lanshu reacted first, this obviously harmless joke.He narrowed his eyes and smiled slowly.Before Cone Shengling blushed slightly and planned to sneak in, he said, "It's like eating a combination of caviar and foie gras that has been placed for three days."

Cone Shengling was stunned again, and said hesitantly, "Have you... ever eaten... that kind of thing?"

"How is it possible!" Jiu Lanshu retorted subconsciously, with a disgusted expression on his face.After speaking, he reacted, and hurriedly returned to his previous indifferent appearance.

"..."

"Don't laugh." Jiu Lanshu said helplessly, looking at the opposite person who was pressing the corner of his mouth and trying to suppress the smile, but he couldn't help but bend his eyes slightly.

"Really." I don't know who sighed, and the air in the room gradually warmed up.

"You can play the piano?" When the words were asked, he secretly regretted the momentary relaxation of defense.

Jiu Lanshu was slightly stunned, and said, "It's probably rough. Why, you can too?"

"...It's not me, I learned a... one when I was a child." The taboo name came out, and the atmosphere gradually became tense again.

Taking a deep breath, Jiulan turned around, sat upright in front of the piano, and lightly rested her hands on the piano cover.Under Cone Shengling's surprised eyes, smooth music flowed out from under his fingers.

Just as Zhuo Shengling thought, the "rough knowledge" that Jiu Lanshu said obviously meant that he was very good at it.

The music that has never been heard is beautiful and unusual.From the point of view of Zhuo Shengling, the pure-blooded emperor playing the piano in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows seems to have been stripped of his cloak of power.The moonlight shone obliquely on the people and the piano, giving off a faint silver light.The emperor in formal attire had a serious but melancholy profile.It's obviously a soothing tune, but it reminds him of the loneliness that flowed in together when he sucked the blood of the other party - the loneliness that has been lonely in the grave for thousands of years.

So he couldn't help stretching out his hand, as if he wanted to heal the loneliness that had been suppressed all this time.But when his eyes touched the gleam of light touching his fingertips, he suddenly retracted, and lowered his head in silence.

"...What's the name of this piece of music?" Zhui Shengling asked.

"Dust. Stardust." Jiu Lanshu lowered his hand, lowered his eyelashes, unable to see clearly the emotions contained in it.

"It sounds good." Zhui Shengling hurriedly got up and walked to his room.

When the first step was taken, a deep voice came from the person behind, unable to discern the emotion in it, "You don't need to have sympathy for me, or apologize, Cone Shengzero. We don't need similar This relationship will only increase the trouble.”

"This has nothing to do with you." After a long time, Zhuo Shengling replied, continuing to stop.

When he was about to walk to the door, the voice came again, like a small hook in a corner of his heart, gently scratched, "Anyway, I am very happy to have such a peaceful discussion with you. "

The hand holding the doorknob tightened and then loosened. After a while, Zhui Shengling said softly, "You don't need to care what I think of you."

After a pause, the voice still stayed in the room after the person left.

"I am willing."

Chapter.SixBenjamin【The favored young son】

In some cases, the very existence of one person hurts another.

- Haruki Murakami

"I wish there was a place. There was a home where my family lived. It wasn't a big house, but it was cozy. There would be a warm smell. It was the smell of my mother baking bread in the kitchen. It was the smell of my father. The smell of drying snow boots for the whole family by the fireplace is the smell of taking off the drying quilt in the sunset. After saying goodbye to my master and brother, I returned home. They sat at the dinner table, together Smiled and said to me, 'Welcome back'."

"Master Shu, is there anything else?" The trembling subordinate looked at Jiu Lanshu who had not spoken for a long time.The task of finding a child's diary in a long-abandoned house seemed like some sort of nasty joke.

"It's nothing, you've done a good job, let's go down." Jiu Lanshu closed the diary in his hand, and said calmly.

"Yes!" The other party seemed to be pardoned.

Cone Shengling looked inexplicably at Level C who hurried away from his side, frowned and walked into the room. "Aren't you restricted in your movements?" He pulled a chair and sat opposite Jiu Lanshu.

"..." Jiu Lanshu covered the diary below with the piano score, lowered his eyes and said, "Even if I can't find others, it doesn't mean that others can't come to me."

"Naturally," Zhui Sheng zero mouth twitched and shrugged, "Everyone knows that your subordinates are all over the world."

"Heh..." Jiu Lanshu's mood today was a little strange, Zhui Shengling felt it keenly, but he was not interested in the reason.

Jiu Lanshu raised his head, smiled and said to Zhuo Shengling, "I don't know why, but I suddenly became interested."

"What?" Cone Shengling asked inexplicably.

"It's about you... and Mr. Yiwei." As expected, the impatient and indifferent man on the opposite side stood up quickly as if he had been stepped on by something, and grabbed his clothes. Leader, with anger burning in his eyes.

"What position do you think you have to say his name!" Zhui Shengling said viciously.

"If you can't say the name, there is no meaning of existence." Jiu Lanshu pulled away the hand on the collar, knowing how bluffing the other party is now without looking, "Your past. Cone makes zero."

"What?" Cone Shengling frowned.

"Your past. You and a strand of the past." Jiu Lanshu pinched Zhui Shengling's chin, forcing him to look into his eyes, "If you are always angry at me for insulting your brother, then tell me, this Reasons that cannot be insulted."

Jiu Lanshu let go of the opponent's hand.Cone Shengling turned his head violently, his face covered by hair looked quite embarrassed.

"...you...why do you want to know?" Zhui Shengling asked in a low voice.

"..."

"No?" After a moment of silence, Jiu Lanshu avoided the question.

"...It's just an ordinary brother." Zhui Shengling sat back on the chair dejectedly, with his head lowered, his long bangs covering all his expressions.

"I thought he would hate you." Jiu Lanshu raised his eyebrows, "After all, you made him rely on drugs for a living."

"'Because she's too gentle, so even when she was unconscious in the mother's womb, she couldn't be cruel enough to take her own life.' Always talking nonsense like this. It looks thin and small. Obviously it must be someone else The person who takes care of him is always careful and doesn't want to cause trouble to others." Zhui Shengling looked at his hand, and a very rare and gentle smile appeared on his face, "It's like a fool."

"He always rushes up to hug me, rubs my shoulders, acting coquettishly. Compared with me who is always boring and unlovable, Yihui always smiles, no matter who she is to It's defenseless and gentle."
