The next day, supervisor Sun Zhuobai finished his morning exercises, walked out of the villa, and went out for a walk alone, listening to music and running while admiring the black and white scenery. On the way, he even saved a passerby who was almost killed by a truck.
After the book of life and death was upgraded, she was able to foresee the death of others 15 days in advance. When traveling in the bustling city, she often brushed past death. Some people could be saved, while others could not. Life and death are happening before her eyes every day. She originally thought she was numb to this, but after meeting Jian Ningxuan, many lost feelings recovered a little bit. Joy, discomfort, fear, pity, sympathy... She cherishes every touch.
Anbu looked at the black and white city, listening to the hustle and bustle, only she was lifeless, as if isolated from the world, everything was so dull.
She slowly stopped trotting and stood on the street with people coming and going, suddenly feeling as if she didn't exist. This feeling came without warning, and it made her feel terrified.
After posting for a while, An Bu took out his cell phone from his pocket and called Jian Ningxuan. I hadn't contacted him last night, and my heart was empty. Suddenly, I understood why the cat owner always likes to stick to her, and doesn't want to be separated for too long. When they are together, they are like a complete roulette wheel. If half of it is missing, it won't turn. Woke up.
"Bubu." The phone was quickly connected, and then Jian Ningxuan's sexy voice came, pulling Anbu back to the world in an instant.
"Mr. Jian." The old corpse suddenly came back to life, "What are you doing?"
"I'm thinking of you." The cat owner has also learned how to be seductive.
An Bu smiled on his face: "I knew you were thinking of me, that's why I called you. Are you happy to hear my voice?"
"Yeah." The deep voice carried a smile.
"I called you yesterday, why is your phone turned off?"
"Forgot to charge it."
"I didn't expect you to forget to charge." An Bu didn't doubt it, and teased, "Don't forget next time, or you will miss the call of love from the shit shovel officer."
"Well, no more."
Anbu heard noisy voices from the phone, and knew that Jian Ningxuan was outside at this time, so after chatting a few words, he ended the call.
After making this phone call, An Bu felt more at ease, but there was always an ominous premonition lingering in her heart, and she always felt that something was about to happen.
An Bu shook his head, put on his earphones again, and continued to trot along the street.
Turning around a crossroad, you will see a towering skyscraper head-on. This is the iconic building in Crystal City of M Country—the Star Reaching Tower, about 480 meters high, integrating business, hotels, sightseeing, conferences, catering, etc. facilities in one.
Anbu looked up for a while, and when he looked back, his eyes suddenly fell on a man who had just come out of the building, and a strong dead air surrounded him, and the time of death was within a day.
Anbu was about to go up to strike up a conversation and see if he could save his life, but who knew he got in the car and left first. Although she memorized the license plate number, she had no way to track the location of the other party, and in this crowded city, it was difficult to gain the trust of others in a short time.
Anbu thought for a moment, then ignored it, and let everything go as it pleases.
Returning to the villa before lunch, Anbu took a shower, and when she went downstairs, she found a beautiful woman in the living room, and Sun Zhuobai was hugged in her arms with an awkward expression on her face.
When the beautiful woman saw An Bu, she let go of Sun Zhuobai, and greeted her friendly: "Is that Miss An? Hello, I am Sun Zhuobai's mother. By the way, you can call me 'Martha'."
"Hello, Martha." An Bu came over and shook hands with her generously.
"It's been hard work for you during this time, isn't my kid easy to take care of?" Martha smiled and patted Sun Zhuobai on the head.
"Young Master Sun is very cute." An Bu praised sincerely.
Sun Zhuobai flung her an annoyed look at her.
"Hahahaha, cute, you are so humorous."
Sun Zhuobai: "..." Mom, does it make you happy to laugh at your son? !
"Lunch is ready. Ms. An, please take a seat and try my chef's skills."
"Okay thank you."
Martha is very talkative, not so particular, and the dining atmosphere is very harmonious. During the conversation, Anbu learned that she and Sun Zhuobai's father had been separated for many years, but they were not divorced. It's not convenient for Anbu to inquire about the entanglements.
After lunch, Martha went back to her room to rest, while An Bu took Sun Zhuobai for a walk in the garden to digest food.
Seeing that the little kid was unhappy, An Bu asked, "What's wrong?"
"Sometimes I really don't understand you adults." Sun Zhuobai glared at An Bu angrily.
An Bu: "... This topic is a bit complicated, can you analyze it in detail?"
"You obviously care about the other party, so why not speak out openly if you have any conflicts? What are you doing in your heart?" Sun Zhuobai complained angrily.
"Are you talking about your parents?"
"I didn't tell anyone!" Sun Zhuobai said angrily, "How many years has it been? You still can't let go of that shitty thing! Are they going to live a lifetime like this lukewarm?"
"What the hell?" An Bu asked curiously.
Sun Zhuobai curled his lips, and said simply and concisely: "A certain person was diagnosed with cancer, so he wrote a will secretly, and then went abroad for medical treatment without telling his wife. He lied that he was in love with someone else, and the surgery It was very successful, and when he came back to explain, his wife had already gotten along with someone else and was ready for a divorce. After talking about the matter, his wife went abroad in a fit of anger. She thought her husband had betrayed her, but in the end she became ruthless. "
"Then do you hate that husband or that wife?"
"I hate that husband even more. If he had made it clear to his wife from the beginning, there would be no trouble later. Everyone has the right to pursue happiness, which is understandable, but happiness based on misunderstandings and lies, no one can calmly accept."
Anbu didn't expect that Sun Zhuobai could say such serious words, which is really impressive.
The phrase he said, "No one can accept happiness based on misunderstandings and lies", moved An Bu quite a bit. The experience of Sun Zhuobai's parents is somewhat similar to that of her and Jian Ningxuan. She is like the terminally ill husband who deliberately hides the truth because he doesn't want his partner to worry. Perhaps the parting of life and death is not the saddest thing. What is really sad is that we missed the opportunity to share weal and woe and overcome difficulties together.
"Xiaobai, do you think that wife would love him consistently if the husband explained it clearly from the beginning?"
"Whether to love or not is not decided by the husband. You have to try it to know. If he believes in his wife's love for him, then why worry? Compared with the distress of knowing that the husband is terminally ill, I think his empathy "Don't fall in love" is what hurts my wife the most."
Anbu looked at Sun Zhuobai unexpectedly, and praised: "Xiaobai, I found that you have great potential to be a lover."
Sun Zhuobai said disdainfully: "You just found out? I can give you a chance to pursue me. It's hard to find someone like me. I don't mind if you are older than me, as long as you obediently listen to me in the future."
An Bu: Hehe, give you a little sunshine and you will be brilliant.
"How about it? Do you want to hurry up? Let me tell you, there is only one chance. After passing this village, there will be no such shop."
"Let's discuss this issue after you grow to 1.8 meters."
"... You really are still so annoying."
At night, Anbu returned to the room, thinking about what Sun Zhuobai said, when the phone rang suddenly, and the caller was the cat master.
"Hey, Mr. Cat, are you looking for your shit shoveler?" Anbu answered the phone and said with a smile.
"Yes, is she there?"
"You meow, and she will appear."
"Meow~~"
Anbu was overjoyed: "Haha, Mr. Jian, where's your integrity? Have you let it go completely?"
Jian Ningxuan smiled and said, "Bubu, are you free at 8 o'clock tonight?"
"Huh?" An Bu looked at the clock, it was past 6 o'clock in the evening, "Are you asking about domestic time or foreign time?"
"I'm in country M."
"What? You are also in country M?" An Bu asked in surprise, "When did you come?"
"When you called me today."
In other words, as soon as she arrived in country M, he followed her on the plane.
"Where are you, I'll find you."
"I'm at Star Picking Tower, Starry Sky Restaurant in Crystal City."
Star Reaching Tower? Such a coincidence? She still passes by during the day.
"Okay, I'll go find you right away." An Bu agreed without hesitation.
After hanging up the phone, she had a vague premonition that the cat owner was going to propose to her at the starry sky restaurant.
Anbu came to the fitting mirror, looked at himself in the mirror, the indifferent expression on his face gradually became clear, and finally revealed a relaxed smile.
If he does propose, marry him. She would tell him who she was, trust him, love him, and spend her life with him. Even if I have to spend endless time thinking about him in the future, I have no regrets.
After communicating with each other, Anbu's whole body glowed with vitality, dressed up beautifully, greeted the butler, called a car, and drove to the agreed place full of expectations.
The Starry Sky Restaurant is located on the top floor of the Star Picking Tower. The ceiling and three walls are all glass, and you can see the sky when you look up. There is a garden outside, surrounded by plants and flowers, as if you are in nature.
Jian Ningxuan was dressed in formal attire, sitting by the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the colorful city outside the window, the brilliance in his eyes shone like a starry sky.
Rubbing the gift box in his pocket with his fingers, he rehearsed the steps of the proposal in his mind, striving for perfection.
Pleasant light music is playing in the restaurant, the soft lighting is like tulle, and more than 20 customers are talking softly, creating a warm and quiet atmosphere.
However, at this time, a sneaky figure appeared at the entrance of the corridor outside the restaurant. He sneered, raised a small controller, and pressed it suddenly, only to hear a few muffled bangs. Several clusters of fire mist exploded, engulfing the entire corridor in a short while.
After doing all this, the figure turned around and disappeared in the escape route.
Wisps of white smoke slowly drifted in from the crack of the door. The customer near the door first sensed that something was wrong, got up and rushed to the door, trying to open the door to check the situation, but was scorched by the scorching heat on the doorknob and screamed.
"It's not good, it seems to be on fire outside!" The man reminded other customers in the restaurant in panic.
Everyone followed the prestige, and they all noticed the smoke coming in from the crack in the door and the looming fire outside.
"Oh my god, what happened?!" Everyone got up and gathered towards the door.
Someone wrapped their hands in a napkin, grabbed the doorknob, and tried to open the door, only to hear the clang of chains.
Everyone paled, realizing that they might have encountered premeditated arson.
"Everyone, don't panic. Each floor of the Star Picking Tower has an automatic fire extinguishing system. As soon as the fire alarm goes off, the corridor will immediately start sprinkling water."
"Look at the fire outside, the fire alarm should have sounded long ago!"
"Damn it, where are the security guards? I don't even know if someone set fire to it."
"Hurry up and call the police!"
"It's been reported, I hope they can come over soon."
While panicking, the lights in the restaurant suddenly went out, leaving only a few emergency lights, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness, screams came and went, and the scene was chaotic.
Jian Ningxuan's face sank like water, trying to keep calm, walked into the bathroom quickly, touched the faucet, but there was no response, and the water pipe seemed to be damaged. If water is not available, using dry tablecloths to block doors and vents will only fuel the fire. The glass in the restaurant is made of thick composite material, which cannot be broken by human power.
At this time, the restaurant has completely turned into a closed air stove.
"Huh? Isn't that the Star Picking Tower? It seems to be on fire?" the driver said in surprise.
An Bu was startled, and looked in the direction of the Star Picking Tower with his probe. Sure enough, he saw thick smoke billowing from the top of the tower, and his pupils shrank suddenly. He quickly took out his mobile phone and called Jian Ningxuan.
The phone rang only four or five times before being picked up.
"Step by step." There was no fluctuation in Jian Ningxuan's voice.
"Are you at the Star Restaurant?"
"I'm sorry, Bubu, Starry Sky Restaurant is fully booked, I changed the location temporarily, you go to Qingfeng Building and wait for me."
"Mr. Jian, you are also so calm when you lie." An Bu was more calm than him, "Wait for me, I will find you right away."
"Step by step!" Jian Ningxuan finally became a little nervous, "Don't come here!"
An Bu would go all out to save a stranger, let alone him
"Bubu, I'll be fine, don't be impulsive!"
An Bu quickly hung up the phone, seeing that the car was stuck in the middle of the road and could not move, she opened the door, jumped out of the car, and ran towards the Zhaixing Tower.
Mr. Jane, wait for me! I won't let anything happen to you!
At this time, the fire brigade hadn't arrived yet, and thousands of people escaped from the Star Picking Tower one after another under the command of the security guards.
The starry sky restaurant on the top floor has been engulfed in thick black smoke, the fire is out of control, and the thick dead air is spreading around.
The automatic fire extinguishing system and fire-fighting facilities on the top floor were destroyed, the fire blocked the way, and the security guards could not carry out emergency rescue, so they could only wait for the fire brigade to come to deal with it.
With the current intensity of the fire, it might be difficult for the people in the restaurant to wait for rescue alive.
An Bu's cell phone kept ringing, but she turned a deaf ear to it and rushed straight to the roof against the flow of people.
"Stop, it's dangerous over there, don't go there!" A security guard caught a glimpse of An Bu's figure and stopped him loudly, but she ignored her completely and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"MD, it's almost fatal!" The security guard was so busy that he couldn't separate himself to chase the person.
In the restaurant, Jian Ningxuan melted a few ice cubes with his hands, soaked the napkin, covered his mouth and nose to prevent inhaling too much smoke, and kept calling An Bu to tell her not to come. However she didn't answer at all.
Step by step, please, don't come here!
If Bu Bu dies because of saving himself, he will never forgive himself in this life. Originally intended to surprise her, it turned out to be a disaster for her.
Jian Ningxuan regretted and blamed himself at this time, but he hadn't given up hope yet, covering his mouth and nose and looking for a way out in the restaurant.
The thick smoke made him unable to open his eyes, and the rising temperature made him feel dizzy and difficult to breathe.
He can't die, he still has to spend his life with Bubu.
Jian Ningxuan was dizzy for a while, and fell down to sit by the wall. His body was so hot that the blood in his body seemed to be on fire, and a lot of sweat flowed like a waterfall, soaking his clothes. His eyelids became heavier and his consciousness became more and more blurred. He tried his best not to faint.
Anbu climbed to the top floor and rushed into the fire without hesitation. When she came to the restaurant door, she found that the door was locked with chains and the fire-fighting facilities in the corridor were also damaged.
Gritting her teeth, she turned and rushed to the first floor below, where she found a fire axe.
Returning to the top floor, Anbu raised the ax and slashed at the doorknob.
Mr. Jane, hold on!
The fire burned Anbu's skin black and cracked, his long hair was curled up, and clusters of flames ignited on his skirt, making him look extremely terrifying.
He slashed with the axe, and after an unknown amount of time, there was a bang, and the doorknob on one side fell to the ground with a chain on it.
Anbu threw the ax away, pushed the door open, and rushed into the smoke-filled restaurant like a ghost. Everyone in the restaurant was already in a semi-conscious state at this time, and no one noticed her appearance.
Looking around, Anbu quickly found Jian Ningxuan by the wall.
She ran over quickly to check on his situation, only to find that he was not breathing.
With trembling fingers, An Bu laid him flat on the floor and began to perform CPR on him, once, twice, three times... Jian Ningxuan, don't die!
Before leaving the country, he obviously didn't have any dead energy in him! How could such a sudden change happen
She knew that sooner or later she would have to face the pain of losing him, but she never thought that parting would come so soon. She has just made up her mind to accept his marriage proposal and spend the rest of her life with him, but why is fate unwilling to leave it to her even in just a few decades
Anbu kept resuscitating him, and then she realized sadly that what he needs most now is fresh air, and the only thing she can't do is artificial respiration.
"Mr. Jian, Mr. Jian..." Anbu's eyes were sour, but no tears came out.
He still has a chance, but she can't save him...
what to do? What should she do
Suddenly, she paused, and the book of life and death suddenly appeared in her mind. Angry... She is still angry! Although anger cannot bring people back to life, it can activate a person's vitality!
Without any hesitation, Anbu immediately bent down, kissed Jian Ningxuan's lips, and let his anger flow into his body. Ordinary anger has no effect, she is not stingy in consuming the life energy points she has worked so hard to accumulate.
5 o'clock, 10 o'clock, 20 o'clock...
People kept dying in the restaurant, one, two, three... none of them persisted until rescue arrived.
As the dead appeared one by one, a large amount of death energy gathered on An Bu.
Her Destiny's vitality value is constantly being consumed, and the soul's vitality value is constantly increasing.
His eyes were enveloped in black air, his body was surrounded by dead air, his skin began to shrink and dry, and his memory was gradually swallowed.
Hmm... A faint breath brushed An Bu's nose, and the lifeless energy in Jian Ningxuan's body gradually dimmed, and he regained his vitality.
It worked!
Anbu's head rested weakly on his chest, but his heart was full of joy.
Seeing half of the gift box exposed in his pocket inadvertently, Anbu picked it up stiffly, took out the rings inside, put one on Jian Ningxuan's finger tremblingly, and put the other on his own finger, and then Whispered in his ear: "Mr. Jane, I would like to..."
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside, and the rescue arrived.
Anbu slowly closed his eyes, his whole body was completely swallowed by death, and fell beside Jian Ningxuan.
"Oh my God, what is this...?" A firefighter exclaimed, pointing to the ground not far away.
The others looked in the direction of their fingers, and saw two people lying on the ground, a scorched mummy curled up beside a man whose clothes were still in good condition...
