Late autumn

In the cold basement, there was no light at all.The surroundings were pitch black, as if empty, and I thought, this might be the last color I saw in my life.

cold.Indescribably cold.I curled up in a corner, hugged my body tightly, hoping to get a little warmth, but my body temperature was dropping little by little.Despair and helplessness filled my brain.Gradually, my consciousness began to blur, and my vigilant nerves kept me in a half-sleeping state.

After an unknown amount of time, I vaguely heard the sound of the door being unlocked.I opened my eyes a little, and the light in the corridor shone into the room, dimly, against the light, it seemed to be that figure, a tall, black figure with long hair.

The strong light made me unconsciously cover my eyes with my hands, and when I opened them again, the figure had already walked beside me.

I'm not mistaken, it's Gin.

"What's the matter for coming so late?" I might have caught a cold, and my voice was slightly hoarse.

"Take you somewhere."

"where?"

"Rooftop."

He pulled me to stand up, turned around and left, and I followed slowly behind.My intuition told me that he wasn't here to execute me.

He stopped by the railing, and I walked over to him.Some cold wind at night blew his long hair, and it also blew the broken hair around my ears. He stood facing the wind like this, and the black windbreaker fluttered with the wind.

"Is it really okay to bring me out like this?" Seeing that he didn't speak, I asked first.

"It was I who locked you up, so I naturally have the right to bring you out." His voice was still so magnetic, a voice that made people listen very at ease.

"Aren't you afraid of me running away?" I asked him jokingly.

"Would you? He turned his head and asked me."

I smiled and didn't answer.

"Just give up like that? Don't you even bother to argue?"

Disdain to argue?hehe.It seemed that I had found a breakthrough, and my emotions burst out suddenly at this moment, helplessness, despair, bitterness, and grievance.

"But, so what if I argue! I have no evidence, no one will believe me, even you don't believe that I am wronged!"

"Of course I know you are wronged!" He interrupted me, this time his tone was not as calm as before, he seemed a little excited.

I froze and looked at him.This urgent tone should not have come from his mouth at all.

He seemed to feel his gaffe, avoided my gaze, turned his head to look at the starry sky, and stopped talking.

I also turned my head to look at the starry sky. At this time, not speaking can express everything better than saying anything.

The stars in the night sky are so beautiful, like broken silver being sprinkled on the black curtain, still shining brightly.Maybe this is the last time I look up at the starry sky, right?I thought silently.

For organization, I am powerless.And he, why not?He does have the right to decide the life and death of the members, but the Boss has personally intervened in this matter, so he has no ability to influence it.We are all just pawns used by the organization.

Another gust of cold wind blew by, and I, who was only wearing a layer of unlined clothing, couldn't help crossing my arms.Seeing this, he didn't make a sound, just took off the black windbreaker silently, and then put it on me.

His body temperature still remained in the windbreaker, maybe it was too cold, that windbreaker gave me warmth that I had never had before.He was only wearing a green sweater. For some reason, after taking off the black windbreaker, he looked taller than before, but looked a little thinner.

My eyes fixed on his right shoulder, where I had blocked a bullet a few months ago.

I touched his right shoulder with my right hand and asked softly, "Is it fully healed?"

"It's almost there." He didn't look at me, but still looked into the distance. It was late at night, and the street lights on the street were sparsely lit, and there were no lights from thousands of houses. Those little lights were like us at this moment, helpless , so lonely.

"Fool. I cursed softly. Remember to protect yourself in the future, don't always get stuck with bullets. After I'm gone, who will bandage your left arm again, Vodka?"

He didn't speak, and stretched out his hand to brush the broken hair next to my ear.I turned my head and continued: "You know, I hate you very much, don't let me see you so soon in that world. Remember to stay away from me..." I couldn't continue, my throat seemed to be blocked by something , obviously there are many things I want to ask, but I just can't say them.

He embraced me into his arms, his shoulders were so broad, so warm, and gave people such a solid feeling, I shrank back, greedily enjoying the warmth of this moment, from childhood to adulthood, except for my sister's embrace , I never remember being so warmed by anyone.

The corners of the eyes seemed to be moistened by something.He hugged me tightly, unwilling to let go, and I snuggled into his arms, unwilling to leave.In such a cold and windy night, I felt the warmth and trust that I had not seen for a long time.I rest assured in his arms.More than half a year of organizational life has made me close myself up and not trust anyone.But at this moment, let me be willful again, maybe, this is the last time.

"Gin." I whispered to him.

"Ok?"

"My sister, my sister..."

"Yes, you know that her existence depends entirely on you. So, for her, you must live."

I shook my head, "I'm afraid I can't.

Gin, can you help me?After the turmoil of this incident has passed, arrange for my sister and Zhu Xing to leave the organization.They don't have a deep understanding of the organization, they are just low-level personnel.Let them go, it's okay.And with your status and rights, you should be able to... right? "

He didn't answer me, just hugged me quietly.

"Gin." I called him again.

"As I said, you are the only one who can protect them."

"Me?" I couldn't help but smile bitterly. "But, even myself, I can't do anything about it. Now I'm like a mouse that has been injected with drugs in the laboratory. No matter how hard I struggle, I can't avoid death after all, right? No matter how painful the struggle... "

My voice gradually lowered, thinking about something in my mind.That drug...struggle...pain...ah, yes.A light flashed in my mind, why didn't I notice it before.Perhaps, this approach will work.

"That, Gin. Do you still have the medicine collected from that person?" I asked in a low voice.

"Huh?" He didn't seem to understand what I was talking about.I raised my head and met his gaze, "Also, the box of medicine they found on my desk, and a laboratory."

He seemed to understand.He smiled faintly, "Got it, I'll go prepare."
