Ten Days End

Qi Xia, Chen Junnan, and Qiao Jiajin headed towards the edge of the city again in the afternoon sun.

Chen Junnan looked at the team in front of him and felt that this should be the first time that the three of them acted alone in the memory of Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin. But he didn't know that in his own memory, the three of them had walked on this street dozens of times.

The dry plants, cracked earth, dilapidated houses, creaking signs and the rotten smell brought by the breeze have never made Chen Junnan feel so familiar.

"Old Qi, Old Qiao." Chen Junnan looked at the sun in the sky and said with a smile, "Do you know... I was so heroic today..."

Qiao Jiajin became interested when he heard it: "Oh? Handsome boy, what did you do?"

"I made a rabbit dizzy today." Chen Junnan continued to laugh, "Even I thought I might die, but I didn't expect to be alive again."

Qi Xia frowned and said coldly: "Don't say discouraging words."

"Old Qi, you don't know..." Chen Junnan shook his head, "I always want to tell you about my heroic appearance in the game, but every time I really meet you, I will think that you are much better than me."

Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin walked to the middle of the street together, moved a rusty street lamp that fell on the ground and blocked the road to the side, and then looked back at Chen Junnan.

"What do you want to say?"

"Compared to you monsters, I really need to give up everything to barely keep up with you two..." Chen Junnan's hearty smile was accompanied by a hint of sadness, "You won't abandon me one day, will you? Although I don't want to go out, I can't be kicked out of the team by you two. You still have to understand this difference."

Chen Junnan's words made Qi Xia feel a little awkward.

"Chen Junnan..." Qi Xia frowned and said, "You are keen on confronting the "Zodiac". Do you want to prove that you and the two of us are standing at the same starting point?"

"What else?" Chen Junnan's eyes moved away from the sun in the sky, and he lowered his head to look at Qi Xia. His broken bangs slightly blocked his eyes, making it difficult to see his expression. "One of you uses intelligence to overcome all difficulties, and the other uses fists to break all laws... I am standing with you now. Do you know what I look like?"

Neither of them spoke, but just looked at him quietly.

"I look like a child who wants to attract your attention. "Chen Junnan grinned and said, "I always hope that I can do something awesome to impress you. I use my not-so-strong body, not-so-smart mind, and my "scapegoat"... I fight with the opponent again and again, just to prove that I can do it..."

"Ah, handsome boy..." Qiao Jiajin looked at Chen Junnan with some reluctance, "In fact, you don't look thin. If we really fight..."

"Yes, I know." Chen Junnan nodded, "I guess I can knock you down with seven or eight people."

"Don't compete with me..." Qiao Jiajin tried to comfort Chen Junnan, but he felt that he was a little stupid. He thought for a long time before saying a word, "Maybe five or six will do..."

Chen Junnan smiled and sighed: "So... Lao Qi, Lao Qiao, if one day I can't keep up with this team, you can always..."

Seeing that Chen Junnan was about to cry, Qi Xia had to frown and say: "Don't be hypocritical. "

"Ah?" Chen Junnan was choked by Qi Xia's words, and the words he had not finished were stuck in his throat.

"What you did before was not childish at all." Qi Xia shook his head and said, "But what you say now is childish."

"What do you mean, Lao Qi." Chen Junnan pushed Qi Xia impatiently, "I have only been sentimental for once in my life, why did you ruin my performance?"

"No need." Qi Xia said, "If you really understand me, you should know what kind of personality I have. I never care whether the people around me are "qualified to stand by my side", I only care about how much sincerity the people around me show to me. I rarely rely on the power of others when doing things. "

"You..."

"Even if the person standing next to me is an old man, a child, or even an unfortunate person who has no "echo", I can't be so cruel as to abandon him at any time." Qi Xia turned around, and the cold voice came again, "Not to mention that you are not."

"Yo! "Chen Junnan smiled instantly, "Old Qi, when did you become so slick? Did you learn a lot from me?"

"You think too highly of me." Qi Xia continued to walk forward, and a sound of indifference came over, "A grown man standing in the middle of the road and being pretentious, I can't learn that.""You kid!" Chen Junnan wanted to curse, but he didn't know where to start.

"If you have the time, why not tell me something?" Qi Xia changed the subject and said, "What kind of person is the Wei Yang you are talking about?"

"Old Wei..." Chen Junnan recalled as he walked forward, "I only had contact with him a few times. Anyway, he was a fierce big brother, not easy to approach, and there was no need to approach him. He was also a general under your command, but he was not very honest. You kicked him out of the team a long time ago."

"I kicked him out?" Qi Xia confirmed.

"That's right." Chen Junnan nodded, "Old Wei not only has a bad temper, but also doesn't tell the truth. He was a famous swindler before entering the "Land of the End." "

"Wait a minute..." Qi Xia paused, "Another swindler?"

"Yes..." Chen Junnan was about to agree, but suddenly found that Qi Xia's words were a bit strange, "Wait a minute... Old Qi, what do you mean by "another swindler", are swindlers common here? "

"Hmm...?" Qi Xia felt that Chen Junnan's question was a bit strange.

"Swindler?" Qiao Jiajin smiled after hearing it, "Oh my god, isn't that a coincidence? Wasn't the scammer a scammer before he came? What's wrong with this place? There are scammers everywhere."

Although Qiao Jiajin was talking to himself, Qi Xia's eyes never left Chen Junnan. Looking at Chen Junnan's hesitant expression, he seemed to think of something very strange.

Chen Junnan turned his head and looked at Qi Xia very seriously, as if to confirm whether the person in front of him was the Qi Xia he knew. His eyes revealed an uncontrollable doubt, and he felt that even his memory had problems.

After holding it in for a long time, he slowly uttered a sentence:

"Old Qi... When did you become a scammer?"
