Lin Feifei saw a lot of candies on the table in front of her, including sandwiches, chocolates, pine nuts, and all kinds of weird toffees.
Her eyes were wide open, her mouth was drooling, and she stared at so much candy without blinking.
Only since memory, this was the first time she saw so many colorful candies, and it was still in her own home.
That's right, as soon as I looked up, my home was still located in the Ivy District in the Old Town of Yungu. Mother Lin Wanru stood at the door of the bedroom, pursing her lips and smiling at her.
"Just take it if you want, it's all for you." Lin Wanru said softly, her eyes full of love.
Feifei didn't consider why her dead mother was here, as if it were supposed to be, she nodded quickly, grabbed a toffee, peeled off the sugar paper, revealing an oval candy.
Feifei stuffed her mouth, her tongue entangled with the candy, her taste buds fully let go, enjoying the sweetness of the fruit filling from the candy itself.
Teeth touched the surface of the toffee lightly, and the feeling of soft sticky teeth surged. Feifei smiled and couldn't help but want to bite down, making her teeth completely surrounded by the soft waxy toffee, wandering around surrounded by sweetness world.
"So fragrant, so sweet, so delicious..."
While chewing, Feifei closed her eyes, holding her right hand in her left hand and hugging her chest, her face full of happiness.
"Is it tasty?"
"Well, it's delicious." Feifei nodded.
Immediately, she was taken aback and found that the questioner did not seem to be her mother, Lin Wanru. She immediately opened her eyes and found that Lin Wanru was no longer standing in the bedroom door.
Turning his head and looking away, not far behind him, Lin Xuanqi in a sky blue school uniform was standing there at some point, his eyes soft, but with a weird look, staring at him lovingly.
"Then you eat more." Lin Xuanqi murmured with a weird smile.
At the same moment, Feifei found that the toffee she was chewing in her mouth was a bit strange. She was about to spit the candies into the open palm, and found that it was a severed finger.
There was no blood flowing out of the broken wound of this severed finger, and it seemed to have been sucked clean by himself, and even appeared dry.
Seeing this scene, Feifei's stomach suddenly surged and almost vomited out directly.
As soon as he raised his head, he saw Lin Xuanqi still holding a weird smile, holding a bunch of broken fingers in both hands, facing him.
"Eat, there are many more, isn't it sweet?"
"No! I don't eat! I don't eat..."
Feifei shook her head quickly, and at the same time stepped back.
She found that Lin Xuanqi had grabbed her hand and immediately began to struggle, and at the same time she kept yelling: "Don't eat, I won't eat..."
"Feifei!"
A familiar voice rang in my ears.
Feifei opened her eyes, and it was dim where it entered, which was the faint light from the electric lamp on the bedside table.
It was Shen Xing who was sitting on the side of the bed and shaking himself.
Seeing her waking up, Shen Xing first made a silent gesture, and then whispered: "Did you have a nightmare? Don't move, just listen to me."
Feifei felt surprised and nodded gently.
Because the quilt was so tightly covered, combined with the heating in the house and the reason of her own nightmares, she felt a layer of sweat coming out of her body at this moment, but it was still dark outside at this point, and it was obviously not dawn.
"It's one o'clock in the morning, and you can't sleep for the time being, because your classmate, Lin Xuanqi, is here." Shen Xing whispered.
Before Feifei expressed surprise, he continued: "Do you remember what I told you? If you are not afraid, it will be them who are afraid."
Feifei looked horrified and nodded slightly.
"Now Lin Xuanqi is here, I think, give you a chance to prove yourself." Shen Xing said calmly.
Feifei slowly sat up from her sex, holding her knees in her hands, staring at Shen Xing.
Although she had acted calmly, Shen Xing could still feel her body trembling slightly, so she immediately put on a thicker home clothes for her.
"According to my guess, although Lin Xuanqi is ruthless to others, he is almost no threat to you, so this is an excellent opportunity to prove your own ability." Shen Xing said: "Now it seems that he just wants to be close to you. This comes from you. The attraction to the anomaly has always existed, but if he wants to hurt you, he has had many opportunities to do it before, but not now."
After a pause, he continued: "And I will always hide to protect you. You can face him boldly and use your ability and aura to shock this anomaly. It is best to suppress it. "
"But... I don't know anything." Feifei said worriedly.
Her lips are a little pale at the moment, not because of the cold weather, but purely because of the fear that she will face the unknown next.
"You can." Shen Xing nodded firmly, "Have you forgotten? Who killed that whole skin abnormally? Who tore the fierce shorthair cat called a big girl in half? Who else? Can he deal with the Meng Yin on his own? You must know that even if an ordinary special dispatcher encounters a Meng Yin, he may be killed instantly."
After the words fell, Shen Xing pressed Feifei’s shoulders, staring into her eyes, and said, "Believe me, believe in yourself, what you lack now is the courage to face them alone, not your ability. Besides, I Will be around you, and once the danger exceeds the limit you can face, you will immediately do it. Not only me, but also your cat sister and A Chai."
Feifei bit her lower lip tightly, her small face turned pale for a while, and when she was about to nod her head fiercely, Shen Xing's gaze turned back for a moment, and she said in a low voice: "He is here."
After a while.
Feifei walked out of the bedroom, she walked very carefully, step by step, for fear of stepping on the ground like ants.
She was wearing thick home clothes and a pair of fluffy bear shoes sprinkled on her feet. These shoes are not slippers, but the kind that can completely wrap the heel to prevent slipping.
After arriving at the stairway on the second floor, she glanced at the living room on the first floor. There was no light on downstairs, but it was not particularly dark, because the curtains in the living room were not closed, and the city lights flooded into the room, showing a picture Inexplicably cold.
The downstairs was quiet, and apart from seeing no one, there was no movement.
Feifei felt that Uncle Shen was wrong. She hesitated for a moment. She resisted the urge to turn her head to check if Shen Xing was following. She hesitated for a while and stepped on the stairs leading to the first floor with her right foot.
The wooden staircase squeaked. This sound would not be noticeable at all when going downstairs during the day, but at this moment, in this silent late night, it seemed to be very ear-catching.
Feifei felt that her heart was lifted into her throat with the sudden sound. She immediately stepped on the next step again, pretending to be nothing, but in fact she was too nervous, and went downstairs step by step.
As I went downstairs, I looked around, but I still saw no one.
Not long after, when she walked to the first floor, Feifei reached out and pressed the light switch at the entrance of the stairs on the first floor. She touched the light switch and found that it was turned on. Then she pressed it up and down twice, but there was no response.
At this moment, her heart was beating, as if she could even hear her, she walked to the living room pretending to be calm, and at the same time, she kept meditating in her heart.
"I am not afraid, they are what I am afraid of. I am not afraid, they are what I am afraid of... No fear, I am not afraid, they will eventually become... slaves of fear..."
After a sudden stop, Feifei stood in the middle of the living room, motionless, her eyes fixed on a figure standing there beside the TV cabinet.
This is the figure of a little boy. He is faintly seen wearing a sky blue school uniform with his head drooping, and pulling his body as far as possible to the side of the TV. This causes Feifei to find him until she gets here.
"Lin... Xuanqi?" Feifei stared at the black shadow with his head drooping, and said directly.
She remembered what Shen Xing told herself, don't be afraid, you can't be afraid, but when she suddenly thought that the classmate who had been with her before was a lurking anomaly, she couldn't help feeling shivering.
The lowered head slowly lifted up, vaguely able to see the familiar face.
At this moment, the black shadow moved a step forward, leaving the area covered by the shadows, revealing Lin Xuanqi with a bit of twitching expression on his face. He put his hands in front of him and held it tightly, as if he did not know where to put it. Lin Feifei stared straight at Lin Feifei, who seemed to have not seen him for a long time.
"Lin Feifei!" Lin Xuanqi's lips squirmed and spoke softly.
"Why are you here?" Feifei asked calmly, trembling uncontrollably.
Lin Xuanqi smiled and replied: "I, I, came here to see you specially. Why did you run to Heshan without saying a word?"
"Moving to Heshan, I must have left." Feifei replied.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance?" Lin Xuanqi asked.
"Can't I go?" Feifei found some feelings when facing Lin Xuanqi at this time, her voice became louder unconsciously, and her body didn't tremble as much as before.
"You... Of course you can go." Lin Xuanqi laughed twice, rubbing his hands in front of him, "However, you have to tell me in advance and let me know where you are."
"Why should I tell you." Feifei frowned.
This was not what she pretended, but the disgust and even disgust naturally generated when Lin Xuanqi said this.
Lin Xuanqi's facial expression suddenly changed, Feifei saw clearly, and found that his expression had at least four or five changes in just three or four seconds, including hesitation, suspiciousness, surprise, sadness, and anger. and many more.
It was as if Lin Xuanqi's face was like a fake face, which could be pinched out with different expressions in the next second.
When he looked at Feifei again, his eyes had become a little gloomy: "You have to tell me because... We are classmates."
"Funny." Feifei smiled pretendingly, but she didn't know whether her smile was true or not. "So many classmates, I didn't tell anyone, you are not an exception."
"We have been studying together for so long and we meet every day. And we have similar grades, can others compare?"
"There are many classmates with better grades than me. Why don't you go and be friends with them?"
"They can't compare with you, you are different, very different..."
"What's the difference? I want to know the reason." At this time, Feifei had recovered the feeling she had when facing Lin Xuanqi in the past. She folded her hands on her chest, and stared at Lin Xuanqi with fierce and fierce eyes.
"As long as I can be around you, it's enough." Lin Xuanqi did not answer her question, as if it was for the sake of Feifei's heart, and directly stated his purpose.
When the words were over, before Feifei continued to speak, he smiled and said, "Remember when we were together on the guesswork?"
With his smile, Feifei clearly saw his brows bulge rapidly, forming a "*"-shaped shape, and even the eyebrows and eye areas changed slightly at this moment, becoming... not like a person's normal facial features.
Feifei was startled, and saw Lin Xuanqi's expression quickly recover, as if what she had just seen was just an illusion.
"Well, I can go, then let's play a guess. If you guess it right, I go. If you can't guess, you can't drive me away." Lin Xuanqi suggested with a smile.
Feifei originally didn't want to guess. In fact, she and Lin Xuanqi had played this kind of guessing many times. Except for the first time she didn't know the other party's routine and failed to guess, she never missed it again.
"Why should I be afraid of him?"
She, who originally wanted to refuse, suddenly a thought came out of her mind and stopped thinking about it. Feifei nodded: "A word is settled."
"Listen well." Lin Xuanqi rubbed his hands, obviously suppressing his excitement.
Feifei saw this movement in his eyes, and a faint vigilance and anxiety rose in his heart, only listening to Lin Xuanqi's words in a hurry.
"It can swallow everything, whether it is insects, fish, birds, beasts, flowers, plants or trees. It can bite through pig iron, erode through gold steel, turn rocks into fly ash, kill humans, slaughter towns, turn the sea into mulberry fields, and turn mountains into plains. What's your identity?"
Feifei frowned slightly, put her index finger on her chin, and did not speak for a while.
Lin Xuanqi was a little proud to see her appearance: "If you can't answer, you can't drive me away."
"If I answer, are you sure to leave?" Feifei asked.
Lin Xuanqi was taken aback and nodded.
"Its identity is-time, okay, you can go." Feifei directly issued the eviction order.
Lin Xuanqi's expression has not changed, let alone what it should be after failure.
He suddenly became interested, staring into Feifei’s eyes, saying every word: "Time, isn’t it the best testimony of our being together? The past or the present, I’ve been with you since you can remember You, shouldn't it be right in the future? You say, is it?"
In the process of speaking, his eyes became deep and dark, as if it contained some strange attraction.
"You said that after such a long time, is it the best reason for me to stay by your side?"
Feifei's face slowly became stiff, and she also stared at Lin Xuanqi's eyes, but she lost the instinctive resistance just now.
After seeing this scene, Shen Xing, who was hiding in the stairwell on the second floor against the wall, suddenly felt bad.
Lin Xuanqi's proposal of guessing the riddle was obviously a trap. No matter whether Feifei guessed it or not, the answer would be in his favor.
If you can't guess the answer and Feifei loses, then Lin Xuanqi will stay by her side forever. If Feifei succeeded in guessing it, she would have doubts about the answer to "time", and then agree with Lin Xuanqi's request at this moment.
The living room fell into a dead silence.
Lin Xuanqi's deep and secluded eyes stared straight at Feifei's eyes without blinking, while Feifei's stiff face gradually lost its color and no longer had any expression.
Time seems to have passed a century, at this time Shen Xing is gradually losing patience, he is considering whether he should do it himself.
On Lin Xuanqi's side, his expression also changed. The expression of his original confident expression, at this moment, because he noticed something strange, he began to lose his defense.
"And... the reason?" Feifei suddenly said, her stiff expression disappeared instantly, "I guessed it, are you still going?"
"Ah, that's not right!"
Lin Xuanqi looked at her in horror, the expression on her face was no longer what a child should have, and she pointed at Feifei with an incredible tone in her tone.
"You, have you jumped out of the rules?!" (End of this chapter)
