Barrier of Light

There is no never-ending feast.

The old shops in the alleys are closed, and the lights on the street corners are dim.

"I'm going to meet an old friend."

Mr. Shu opened the car door with a cigar in his mouth and said with a smile: "It's only past eleven o'clock, there's still time, who wants to take a ride?"

Everyone shook their heads and refused.

No one wants to get in the teacher's car in the middle of the night and be stabbed to death with a thousand stares on the street.

"What a tasteless young man." Zhou Jiren put on his sunglasses and silently started the engine. He waved his hand and rode away amidst the roar.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the supercar disappear from sight.

"I secretly thought that the teacher's taste..."

Zhong Wei shook his head and said with a sigh: "It is inversely proportional to his old man's strength."

"It's indeed a little bit..." Luo Er sighed softly: "It's different."

"Probably hundreds of millions." Gu Shen smiled bitterly and said, "Do you know how painful it was on the way here?"

"If it were me..." Nan Jin, who had been silent all the time, also said seriously: "I will definitely not get in the teacher's car."

The four people leaned on the street and looked at each other.

Then each of them laughed uncontrollably.

After the laughter in the wind slowly stopped, there was actually a touch of parting melancholy.

"Okay. I'm not like a certain S-class guy who has a private plane to pick him up."

Luo Er smiled and said: "I won't say any more words of farewell. Please take care of yourself."

Zhong Wei smiled softly and said, "I'll give it to senior sister as a gift."

The two figures just disappeared.

So when the wind blows again.

There were only two lonely people left on the street.

Gu Shen, Nan Jin.

...

...

"It's not too far from the apartment...I'm going to walk back."

Nan Jin walked slowly along the street corner, her shadow slowly lengthened by the distant street lamp nailed to the wall. She looked beside her: "What about you?"

"Hey, what a coincidence, that's what I planned too."

Gu Shen was happy when he heard this, "You don't know, taxis are very expensive in Qinghe District at night. It's good to walk back. In fact, if you are in a hurry, I can even run with you for a while."

Nan Jin smiled silently.

Gu Shen realized that this seemed to be the first time he saw Nan Jin smile tonight.

Tonight's dinner party... She seemed to have something on her mind. She didn't say much and drank alone.

"I will leave Qinghe tomorrow, and I still don't know what the next mission will be..." Gu Shen muttered: "Senior Sister Luo is going to Nagano, and Senior Brother Zhong should also be accompanying her... Nan Jin, you never said anything, What’s next?”

Nan Jin remained silent tonight.

No one knew where she was going next.

"have no idea."

Her answer was simple: "If there had not been the escape of A-009, I would no longer be in Qinghe. According to past habits, I will continue to perform tasks without interruption."

"What now?" Gu Shen asked curiously.

"I want to stop and take a rest." Nan Jin's answer was still brief.

"That's good." Gu Shen thought for a while and said, "If you feel tired, just take a good rest."

"I am not tired."

Nan Jin's voice sounded a little helpless and a little annoyed.

However, Gu Shen didn't notice it at all.

He scratched his head, "Actually, I don't quite understand your desperate approach... Although I am also a person with a mission now, I also want to go back to Wulaoshan every now and then to see my mother-in-law and children when I have time. They. By the way, where are your family members? If you take a break, would you like to go back and visit?"

Nan Jin's eyes flickered.

This time she said nothing.

"Teacher and senior brothers and sisters all say that you are working too hard, so hard that it makes people feel bad." Gu Shen continued to mutter to himself: "I am quite curious, is there any reason why you have to work so hard? "

"..."

Nan Jin stood still.

Gu Shen was stunned for a moment, then saw Nan Jin wave her hand, and a taxi in the distance slowly stopped.

"Don't get me wrong, this is the car I ordered for you."

Nan Jin said softly: "I wanted to walk back alone. But you were too noisy."

Gu Shen: "???"

"Good luck with your mission."

Nan Jin pushed Gu Shen's head into the car door with one hand and said calmly: "Don't talk so much next time we meet."

Send Gu Shen away.

Nan Jin felt that the whole world was pure.

She let out a long breath and leaned against the street wall with relief.

The night is already dark.

The alley at the corner of the street shimmered with dim and mottled light, and the dark figures on the wall lowered their heads. The light and shadow seemed to be swaying and changing, and the wind had a more bloody smell.

Nan Jin whispered a name softly.

"Cui Zhongcheng..."

...

...

"This guy Nan Jin...has gone too far..."

Gu Shen dared not say anything about being forced into a taxi.

In fact, he was not that angry... He felt it during the dinner party. After a certain person's name was mentioned, Nan Jin's expression changed slightly.

Cui Zhongcheng.

When investigating Han Dang's files, Gu Shen actually tried to check other people's files... Senior Sister Luo and Mr. Shu's files were more confidential than Han Dang's, but Senior Brother Zhong Wei's could be viewed normally.

But Nan Jin's files were secretly sealed.

The confidentiality of her files is very high. Judging from the deep sea permissions that Chu Ling can currently unlock, there is no way to crack it.

This is actually a noteworthy detail.

The files of Senior Sister Luo and the teacher were kept secret because they possessed too strong extraordinary power... Although Nan Jin's strength was good, it was not enough for Shenhai to use his authority to block it to such an extent.

The archive sealed her past.

And she... obviously didn't want to mention the past to herself.

"Tsk tsk... Senior brothers and sisters, everyone has a story to tell."

Gu Shen put on his headphones and murmured to himself: "If in a novel, this kind of desperate Saburo is probably burdened with a blood feud that cannot be resolved..."

A rustling sound sounded in the headphones.

"Perhaps they are just practicing hard?"

Chu Ling completed the link in one second and reminded him very seriously: "Don't be malicious about other people's past experiences!"

"sorry Sorry……"

Gu Shen was startled and apologized quickly, "So you've been listening all this time. Can I still have some privacy?"

"I only connected peripheral devices when you were alone."

Chu Ling snorted: "Who cares about your privacy?"

"Ahem..."

Gu Shen lowered his voice and said with a voice that only the two of them could hear: "However, you came at the right time. I looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally you came."
