Before Song Lin and Yuan Xiuli woke up, Xia Qiu and others had restored everything in the KTV private room to its original state. Ouyang Xiaoleng wanted to erase the memories of the two girls, but Xia Qiu stopped them.
"Let them keep this memory. Something must have happened between them at the last moment, so Song Lin chose to sacrifice herself to save Yuan Xiuli. Maybe their friendship can continue."
Although Xia Qiu's words were addressed to Ouyang Xiaoleng, they were actually a form of comfort to herself. In the past two days, after she had some free time, she was always thinking about one issue, which was the matter of erasing Liu Lingmei's memory last year. Was what she did right or wrong? If she still remembered those horrific experiences, would she feel very painful? Should we live a carefree life, or should we continue to move forward with these memories that far exceed ordinary people's understanding of the world? She thought she made the best choice for Liu Lingmei, but in fact, who has the right to make choices for other people
In the private room that had been purified by Ran Mingzhu's magic power, the air flowed very slowly and had a light fragrance. Yuan Xiuli felt that she had not slept so deeply in a long time. Her heart was so peaceful. The secret that had been bothering her for more than three years was finally confided to Song Lin, as well as the secret about Yan Qin that was deliberately concealed from her half a year ago. That thing too. She was afraid that if she opened her eyes, she would have to explain her feelings to Song Lin again, and even had the idea of never waking up. But the more she did this, the faster she would wake up.
"Did I sleep for a long time?" She rubbed her eyes and asked nonchalantly.
"It won't take long, but it's time for you to get up. It's almost time for our private room." There was no longer anger or resentment on Song Lin's face, nor was there any disgust.
"Yeah!" Yuan Xiuli sat up obediently. I thought to myself, luckily, Song Lin was still willing to talk to her. Her voice was still scratchy, but it sounded nice.
"Don't you resent me?" Song Lin asked while packing her things.
"Hate?! Why?!" Yuan Xiuli asked her, pretending to be surprised.
"Don't you remember? Just now..." Song Lin secretly guessed that Yuan Xiuli had forgotten that the monster appeared just now and that she had cursed her.
"What happened just now? I actually fell asleep in a KTV. This is the first time, but don't tell anyone else!" Yuan Xiuli said awkwardly, arranging her messy hair.
Song Lin was stunned for a moment. She didn't know whether Yuan Xiuli really didn't remember or was pretending that nothing happened. But she understood that she must have the same idea as her own, which was to protect the friendship between her and her. . So she came closer to her and said, "Nothing, let me help you tie your hair up again!"
The fear of being stuck in the neck by the monster's claws has not disappeared, and the body is also aching, and the scars on their hearts are the same. It would be impossible to say that Yuan Xiuli didn't care at all that Song Lin had used evil power to curse herself, but if she questioned her about this, their relationship would have come to an end. She wanted to bury what had just happened and the hurt in the past deep in her heart. Only in this way could she continue to protect her.
The two of them walked out of the KTV. It was almost nine o'clock, but the commercial street was still full of people, and some unscrupulous young people kept looking at them. Although Song Lin knew that most people were attracted by Yuan Xiuli's beauty, she still couldn't help but lower her head. Yuan Xiuli held her hand tightly and led her quickly towards the exit of the commercial street.
Three teenagers passed by the two of them. Yuan Xiuli recognized that one of them was Ran Mingzhu, and the other two should be from class one. Song Lin had the illusion that it was these three people who had just appeared in the private room and rescued her and Yuan Xiuli. Their expressions were nervous and their steps were hurried, as if they were rushing somewhere.
"Next, I'm going to go near Kong Xin's home. I specifically asked a senior student about it. Kong Xin always plays basketball on the basketball court at home around nine o'clock in the evening!" Ran Mingzhu said a little proudly.
"Which senior has such a unique vision?" Ouyang Xiaoleng asked expressionlessly.
It took about half a minute for the other two people to realize that Ouyang Xiaoleng had just been teasing. Xia Qiu laughed out loud, but Mingzhu blushed angrily, pointed at Ouyang Xiaoleng and said, "Don't underestimate me." Me, I have always had many suitors!"
"If the monster implements the curse in order, then the next person will be Kong Xin. He is in the second grade of high school (5), and the person who cursed him is Li Yang, who is in the same class with him. Both of them are Boy." Xia Qiu's attention has shifted to Kong Xin.
"Will that monster continue to act so quickly? It should have realized that its secret has been exposed." Ran Mingzhu felt that the other party's IQ should be very high, but at the same time it would be more difficult to deal with.
"Anyway, it's better to confirm. At the same time, we can verify Min Endong's guess and see if the monster acts in a certain order." Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't want to miss any opportunity.
"The senior said that Kong Xin had disliked Li Yang since he entered school and often bullied him." However, Mingzhu had already used her break time to get a lot of information from a boy in Kong Xin's class.
"Isn't there anyone in their class to stop it?!" Xia Qiu found it hard to understand what those people who ignored Kong Xin's behavior were thinking.
"The two of them lived in the same community. Kong Xin always stopped Li Yang after school and asked him for money or something. If Li Yang didn't give it to him, he would inevitably get a beating. Li Yang was relatively thin and small. He is no match for the tall and powerful Kong Xin. Although other students also wanted to take care of him, they were afraid of Kong Xin's character and feared that he would retaliate against them, so they had no choice but to turn a blind eye."
After listening to Ran Mingzhu's introduction, Ouyang Xiaoleng said: "Bullying the weak... Such people deserve to be cursed!"
"Although he should receive a certain punishment, his crime is not worthy of death. The monster's so-called helping others complete the curse is actually using their resentment to gain a reason to kill."
"The reason for killing?" Xia Qiu didn't quite understand what Ran Mingzhu said.
"In the world of monsters, it is normal for the strong to kill the weak, and they will not be punished for it. But it is different when monsters want to kill humans. Let him give a more detailed explanation!" Ran Mingzhu pushed the topic to Ouyang Xiaoleng.
"Killing one or two people by monsters may not attract the attention of the gods. If the number reaches a certain level, God Qiansu will naturally not let them go easily. Therefore, these monsters need a reason to kill and torture in the human world. Simple The explanation is that those who cursed others on the forum are the masterminds, and the monster is just a killer he hired. If the death is caused by conflicts and hatred between people, God's Domain will not be involved."
"I probably understand." Xia Qiu nodded.
Unknowingly, they had arrived in front of the main entrance of a newer residential area. Such high-end communities are rare in the small place of Yongchuan.
"Both Kong Xin and Li Yang live in this community?" Ouyang Xiaoleng glanced at the words "Nordic style town" on the door and asked.
"Don't worry, my news is definitely correct."
"This is the community of the little hacker Min En Tong's family."
"Isn't it?! He turned out to live in such a... luxurious place." Xia Qiu searched in his mind for a long time and felt that perhaps only luxury could describe this villa area.
"It seems that you need to register before entering the gate." Ran Mingzhu said as she looked at the security guards standing on both sides of the main entrance of the villa.
"We'll wait for you inside!" After Ouyang Xiaoleng said that, he took Xia Qiu's hand, jumped up and disappeared.
"Hundan!" Ran Mingzhu cursed and flew over the high wall. After landing, she looked around at the trees that were as dense as a forest and asked, "Where is the basketball court?"
Ouyang Xiaolen put his finger on his lips, signaling her to be silent, and used his keen hearing to look around for the rhythmic sound made when the basketball came into contact with the ground.
Bang bang, bang bang, bang bang.
"This way!" He raised his hand and pointed in a direction 45 degrees to the right in front of them.
They avoided the road and instead walked through the woods and stopped behind a bush. The basketball court is about twenty or thirty meters away from them. There is a lonely figure in the court who is constantly laying up and shooting baskets. He should be about 1.9 meters tall. His movements are very professional. The basketball uniform and sneakers he is wearing are also very professional. All are famous brands.
"Is that person Kong Xin?" Xia Qiu turned to Ran Mingzhu and asked. I thought that if I could say or explain here that his family was absolutely extraordinary, why would he ask Li Yang for money
"That's him. How many people in our school are over 1.85 meters tall, not to mention he's 1.92 meters tall." Ran Mingzhu responded affirmatively.
"So high!" Xia Qiu sighed.
Although there was quite a distance, she could still feel the deep loneliness coming from Kong Xin. He seemed to be completely immersed in his own world, isolated from everything outside. The lights around the stadium shone on him, but they couldn't shine into his heart. The aura around him seemed to be surrounded by a dark tone.
"Are we just going to wait like this?" Ran Mingzhu asked Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng in a low voice.
The Xia Qiu family cast their gaze on Ouyang Xiaoleng, but Mingzhu didn't understand what her eyes meant, but Ouyang Xiaoleng understood it immediately. He pointed at himself with both hands at the same time, making a surprised mouth gesture.
"Yes!" Xia Qiu smiled and nodded.
Ouyang Xiaoleng sighed deeply, then left her and Ran Mingzhu behind, and walked alone across the bushes towards the basketball court.
"What is he going to do?" Ran Mingzhu asked Xia Qiu, looking at his back.
"Go play ball!"
"He left so happily!"
However, Mingzhu had to admire the tacit understanding between Xia Qiu and Ouyang Xiaoleng, but what made her even more incredible was that Ouyang Xiaoleng, who was obviously resistant to others, would only open his heart to Xia Qiu.
Not only that, she could see that Xia Qiu was extremely special to Ouyang Xiaoleng. It was not easy for humans and monsters to get along with each other without grudges. Except for her aunt Ran Susu, all the humans she knew were Only Xia Qiu has achieved this.
