Ability studio
Chapter 47
Professor Rhodes first introduced himself.
Gu Yi heard him say that he was the person in charge of the research work of the Ability Studio, so he nodded his head very calmly.
Gu Xiaoniao is no longer the Gu Xiaoniao she used to be!
He's already swollen!No longer just because a mysterious boss appeared at random, I would run to discuss countermeasures with Messiah in great excitement!
Then I heard Rhodes' next sentence: "I watched Lou Xiao grow up..."
Gu Yi: "..."
Gu's tail frantically wagged in an instant.
The old professor noticed his bright eyes, couldn't help but sighed softly in his heart, and continued: "I came to Jiangcheng with Lou Xiao this time, mainly to extract the active ingredients from that meteorite that can treat his side effects. "
Gu Yi nodded attentively: "Thank you for your hard work!"
"It's not hard," Rhodes changed the subject, "but I hope you know——Lou Xiao is different from normal people."
Gu Yiyi paused slightly, and was about to nod his head to explain that he actually knew, but saw Rhodes raised his hand to stop him, and continued: "I'm not just referring to Lou Xiao's physique, abilities or side effects...you didn't I've seen the real him..."
The old professor said: "I want to tell you that although Lou Xiao looks normal on the surface, in fact..." He thought about his choice of words, "In fact, he lacks normal human feelings, no empathy, and can't have a good relationship with the group. A sense of identity and belonging…”
Gu Yi thought that he lacked human emotion, he just confessed his love to me!
Gu Yi was obviously a little unconvinced, and Rhodes had no choice but to be straightforward: "Lou Xiao has been diagnosed with multiple personality disorder since he was a teenager. He refuses to be treated, and even wants to kill him directly with supernatural powers..." The old professor paused, Said, "Drive the medical staff out directly."
Rhodes was afraid that Gu Xiaoniao would not take it seriously, but he was also afraid that telling the whole truth directly would scare him, so he had to pick up examples that were neither painful nor itchy.
"Borderline personality disorder," he said, "is a very common personality disorder in which patients are extremely unstable in self-image, mood, behavior, and interpersonal interactions—disordered self-identity, repeated self-denial, Frequent fear of abandonment, difficulty controlling angry emotions and destructive urges..."
"Oh..." Gu Yiyi didn't have any sense of reality, and his first reaction was that Lou Xiao asked himself to stay by his side with a fierce face, and even thought it was a bit cute out of season.
Rhodes said: "The little boy who gave you the Enchant..."
"Qinyu?" Gu Yi asked inexplicably, "What happened to him?"
Rhodes: "Lou Xiao knows that he likes you, and has been planning since you met... to teach him some lessons."
Gu Yi was slightly taken aback...
some lessons?
The old professor's eyes darkened, and he counted the "accidents" that Luo Qinyu escaped by relying on Lucky one by one in a low voice——
Falling electric fans and billboards... The hot water faucet suddenly splashed... The roof railing suddenly broke...
Gu Xiaoniao was shocked.
So those "death is coming" accidents are really all man-made? !And the instigator was... Lou Xiao?
There are no "lessons" here... If Luo Qinyu didn't have Lucky, everything would kill him!
Rhodes looked at him seriously: "Lou Xiao treats you differently because you are his antidote, which is special... One day those additional effects disappear, and you will probably be able to see the true appearance of the Demon King."
The true form of the Demon King.
——Lou Xiao's eyes were cold, and he looked at him without emotion with the eyes of a stranger.
——The men in black who were constantly struggling were lying on the ground, with broken arms and legs, and blood splattered everywhere.
——The man behind him even strangled his own neck as if he was possessed by an evil spirit, and pushed himself against the tree. He stretched out his tongue uglyly because of suffocation, and his protruding eyes were full of fear.
Gu Yiyi suddenly covered his eyes: "I..."
His eyes flickered, and finally he could no longer ignore it, remembering that night, watching the tragic scene of Lou Xiao burning people to death...
When the incident happened so suddenly, Gu Yiyi didn't see how Lou Xiao moved his hand, so he hypnotized himself that Lou Xiao didn't do it, and even convinced himself that Lou Xiao's subsequent counterattack was just self-defense...
Afterwards, he was injured and hospitalized, and his brain reacted automatically, subconsciously imprinting all the bloody scenes of that night into three thick mosaics in his brain.
In the final analysis, no matter how much Gu Yi is invincible in all directions on the Internet, he is still just a young freshman.
It was the first time I saw someone lose their life in front of my eyes, and it was in such a tragic way... It was impossible for Gu Yi not to be shocked.
Until this moment, the strong wind blows away the leaf that obscures the view.
There are some inescapable facts that are always in front of us.
The old professor sighed: "Lou Xiao is like a ticking time bomb, do you think you...are you really capable of controlling him?"
Rhodes talked dryly for a long time, and finally saw the reaction he wanted, and finally secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
The old professor himself has never been in a relationship before, and he said that love makes people blind. He was really afraid that after he told Gu Yiyi that Louxiao was abnormal, Gu Yiyi would think "Wow! It's so cool, I don't know it, it's a bit eggy." The eggs are so attractive!" Then he was even more reluctant to leave Louxiao.
Fortunately, Gu Yi seems to have a very upright outlook.
However, he didn't know that although Master Xiaoniao's three views were upright, he had a crooked courage!
The shock is of course very shocking...
But after a brief shock, Gu Yi quickly realized that Lou Xiao was not what he wanted to be.
Bomb|Bomb... Gu Yiyi brain supplemented the Q version of Louxiao to inflate continuously, and finally leveled the entire Jiangcheng with a "bang".
Lou Xiao's magnified handsome face is close at hand.
He was condescending, and countless complicated emotions swirled into a whirlpool in his eyes, pulling Gu Yi fiercely into it, sinking to the deepest point where he couldn't break free.
"...and then I fell in love with you."
I like you.
Gu Yiyi's first reaction after being frightened... was actually a little distressed.
Multiple split personality, inability to judge things with empathy, lack of empathy, self-denial, easy to fall into angry emotions...
How could it be said that it was all Lou Xiao's fault?
Lou Xiao is obviously the most innocent.
Gu Yi thought about it, and these are indeed possible problems that need to be coordinated between him and Lou Xiao, but they are not unsolvable...even, many of them don't need to be solved by him alone.
"I can't control him," Gu Yiyi still had a bad expression on his face, but he had already figured it out, "but if he is willing to try to control himself for me, I am also willing to work hard for him."
Rhodes put more than half of his heart and got stuck halfway, and almost didn't get choked out anyway!
The old professor looked up and met Gu's big sincere eyes...
After a while, she couldn't help turning her head in embarrassment - when she persuaded him before, she was mostly selfish, but now she really felt sorry for the two children.
Gu Yiyi is obviously very aware of the danger of Lou Xiao, and he is not so naive as to think that Lou Xiao is good at everything, he will insist on staying by Lou Xiao's side... probably because he really likes it.
Even a little more than he thought.
For a moment, Rhode wondered if he shouldn't continue to persuade him - in his life, could Lou Xiao meet another person who liked him so much?
But just for a moment, the old professor put aside those wavering again.
He whispered: "But Lou Xiao doesn't seem to be willing."
Gu Yi was taken aback.
Rhodes is actually a little strange, Lou Xiao has always been a man who doesn't look forward and backward, he is proud of himself and thinks that all problems can be controlled with one hand, even if there are any "accidents", the Great Demon King who has no interest in the world doesn't care at all.
It's like using Gu Yiyi as bait last time - this kind of straightforward and conceited plan is like Lou Xiao's style of doing things.
... instead of throwing away half of the research, pouring a bowl of Robin to Gu Yiyi, and then leading a large group of people to flee and pack it back.
Rhodes pursed his lips, and said: "The company has already been packed, what Lou Xiao urgently needs to deal with tonight is the closing of several projects... and you—"
The old professor said: "Lou Xiao only hopes that you can forget him, and never see him again."
"What did you say?..." Gu Yi was stunned, "Lou Xiao wants me...to forget him?!"
"Didn't he tell you?" Rhodes said, "The side effects of Enchant, and...the matter of Robin..."
Gu Yi shook his head blankly.
"It shouldn't be..." Professor Rhodes briefly explained Robin's principle, and thought for a while, "Did Robin make a mistake? Have you accidentally forgotten anything important recently?"
Gu Yi subconsciously followed his question and recalled, and then his mind was so shaken that he couldn't say a word.
He did forget...
He thought it was just because he drank too much! ...
But now that I think about it, how could I forget so completely because of half a glass of red wine?
So, since that night, is Lou Xiao ready to break up with him?Today's serious explanation is not his wishful thinking...
Instead, I want to tell him—everything is just an illusion caused by drugs.
Lou Xiao fell in love with him only because of the drug effect of Enchant, not voluntarily.
He never planned to let this wrong love go.
Gu Yi's heart trembled, and his eyes turned red involuntarily.
Looking at his expression, Professor Rhodes knew that Lou Xiao had indeed dropped off Robin, and couldn't help but sighed: "Don't blame Lou Xiao, it's actually good for both of you...I told you too, Lou Xiao It's just such a character, paranoid, indifferent, unreasonable, and doesn't care about everything except himself...sometimes he doesn't even care about himself..."
Rhode shook his head helplessly, and said, "Don't be sad, he treats everyone like this, not you..."
However, the old professor's kind reassurance sounded like sharp knives piercing the heart to Gu Yiyi at the moment.
Gu Yi desperately wanted to shake his head to refute——
No no no!You are not right!
Lou Xiao is neither paranoid nor indifferent!He also has feelings, can laugh and be sad!
He also... likes me a little bit.
However, all the rebuttals were blocked by the half-cup of Robin, like an unshakable ironclad proof, sealed for his ridiculous "love" in less than an hour. Home.The coffin is concluded.
Professor Rhodes is still persuading him: "Lou Xiao's injury this time is probably the heaviest in so many years... Even when he was just born and couldn't control his abilities, he had never been injured so badly. I doubted it at the time. Whether he can survive it... Maybe it's because of the serious injury that made him think too much..."
"What did you say?" Gu Yi asked blankly, "Is Lou Xiao injured?"
Professor Rhodes was taken aback, and then realized that Gu Yi had probably lost consciousness due to heavy injuries at the time, and didn't know what happened next. After thinking about it, he immediately realized that this was a pretty good excuse.
It's just...to Gu Yiyi, it might be a bit cruel...
"Lou Xiao was seriously injured...to save you," Professor Rhodes thought, and said slowly, "His powers have failed, so he can only protect you with his own body. Let alone a dozen knives... When we arrived, both of you had his blood all over your body and face, if it wasn't for Lou Xiao's special physique, you wouldn't have been able to wait for us to arrive..."
One of Gu's eyes shrank suddenly, and he said in disbelief, "How could his supernatural power...?"
The old professor pursed his lips: "Because of your blood."
"Because you can not only eliminate the side effects for Lou Xiao, but also eliminate his abilities..."
"Gu Yi..." Rhode looked at his red eyes, suppressed his unbearable heart, and stabbed the bloody knife word by word.
"Lou Xiao almost... was killed by you."
Gu Yi was shocked suddenly, as if something exploded from the bottom of his heart, the pain made him a little difficult to breathe.
Serious injury for the first time since birth...
The injury was too serious to make him think too much...
You almost killed me...
I just hope you can forget him and never have any contact with him again.
The incomparably powerful Lou Xiao, the ever-handy Lou Xiao... What was going on in his mind when he held him and blocked those knives and axes for him?
...Is it regrettable?
How could he be swayed by drugs for a while, and die for such a person for no apparent reason?
That's why as soon as I woke up, I wanted to draw a line with myself.
"I'm sorry……"
Gu Yiyi tried hard to say something, and promised Rhodes that he would not approach Lou Xiao again, that he would not hurt him again... After a long while, he felt his cheeks warm up, and the tears that filled his eyes suddenly rolled down Come.
Gu Yi finally collapsed.
His sun goes down, his fireworks go out, his humpback falls into the deep sea...
The man who was rolling in bed with excitement half an hour ago now looks like a fool.
He can be invincible for love.
But what if...the shitty love he thought he had never existed?
Gu Yi heard him say that he was the person in charge of the research work of the Ability Studio, so he nodded his head very calmly.
Gu Xiaoniao is no longer the Gu Xiaoniao she used to be!
He's already swollen!No longer just because a mysterious boss appeared at random, I would run to discuss countermeasures with Messiah in great excitement!
