Pollution throughout the territory

Time has come to evening, and the Liufeng Mountain, which is lined with strange rocks, has fallen into darkness. In the night, the snow covering the peaks reflects the faint light, the cold wind howls, and the temperature on the top of the mountain is extremely cold. If ordinary people are not prepared, they will never survive here for a few days. hours, they will freeze to death.

Qin Yun wore a thin down jacket and came to the top of the mountain alone.

On a boulder on the edge of the cliff ahead, Xia Ren crouched with his hands on his knees, looking at the valley below, as motionless as a statue.

There was a thin layer of snow on his shoulders and a layer of frost on his hair, making him look extremely lonely.

Qin Yun looked at his back from a distance and breathed a sigh of relief.

More than ten hours have passed since the accident that happened in the morning. Xia Ren ran into the mountains alone and did not reply for a long time. Qin Yun was worried that something unexpected would happen to him, so she searched for him from mountain to mountain, and searched for more than ten people. Hours.

Lu Yi was accidentally injured by Xia Ren and stayed in Conle Villa. Lily stayed with her to take care of her.

Looking at Xia Ren's figure, like a wounded little animal, hiding and licking his wounds alone, Qin Yun couldn't help but feel distressed.

The cold wind on the top of the mountain blew Qin Yun's long hair, and her feet made a crunching sound on the snow.

She walked behind Xia Ren, saying nothing or doing anything. She simply stood beside him and accompanied him.

Qin Yun didn't know what happened between Xia Ren and Da Yuanjing, but she could deeply understand Xia Ren's sadness.

In the impression, Xia Ren can remain optimistic even when encountering the worst things. Qin Yun has never seen such an expression on his face, this... expression as if he was abandoned.

Xia Ren also noticed Qin Yun. He withdrew his eyes from the empty valley, buried his head in his knees, and said in a low voice: "Leave me alone."

Like a rebellious teenager, his tone was a bit aggrieved and stubborn.

"How could I ignore you?"

Qin Yun stretched out her hand and gently stroked the frost off his head, then squatted down, leaned her body against his broad back, and said softly:

"I am the only one left."

Xia Ren was silent for a long time, turned to look at her, opened his mouth, closed it again, hesitated again and again, lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake, and said, "But I am a monster."

Qin Yun said without hesitation: "You are a monster, and I am a monster too."

"It's different, you don't understand."

Xia Ren turned his head.

"What's the difference?"

Qin Yun held Xia Ren's face and looked into his eyes seriously: "There are indeed many things I don't understand, but there is only one thing I understand. When I was the most lonely and desperate, it was you who broke into that blackened room and gave me Bringing light, everyone is afraid of me, but only you are not afraid."

"You, my nephew, and Zhang Xiang are different from those real monsters. In the past few months, you have been helping others and have never done anything bad. If you can be called a monster, then I will join you. Be a monster.”

"Whoever dares to bully you and make you suffer, I will blow his fucking head off."

Qin Yun said, making a fierce look and waving her fist. She looked a bit tough.

Listening to what she said, Xia Ren's expression was no longer so downcast, and the corners of his mouth had a slight arc.

"You're kinda cute."

"ah?"

Qin Yun didn't react for a while, she was stunned, and then her face turned red: "You are quite old, but... cute..."

Although he denied it, in fact, Qin Yun was so happy that she wanted to hug him and spin him around twice now.

"I won't be bullied."

Xia Ren stood up, and the snow on his body fell off.

He had been stuck in a dead end before and couldn't get out. Qin Yun's words enlightened him.

No matter how much you regret, the past cannot be changed.

What Da Yuan Jing said may not necessarily be correct. If the real Xia Ren is dead, Huang Qiuyuan will not be unable to see it, and the doctor will not be unable to discover the clues. Besides, even if he is really dead, he will still be himself and will not change.

Xia Ren guessed that the greater possibility was that Du Yuanjing was deliberately disturbing his state of mind. As for its purpose, he didn't know, and he didn't want to know.

Seeing that his face had regained its confidence, Qin Yun was also happy.

Xia Ren remembered that because Lu Yi was possessed by the wishing mirror, he was so angry that he rolled her up with his tentacles without having time to distinguish, and asked: "Is Lu Yi okay? Where is Lily?"

"Lu Yi was slightly injured, not serious, but I was afraid that something would happen to her alone, so I asked Lily to stay with her. They are all still waiting for us to go back at Connaught Villa."

After Qin Yun finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something.

"correct."

She took out a photo from her arms and handed it to Xia Ren.

This photo is sealed with glue, so it is relatively well preserved, but it is obvious that it has been stored for a long time, and the transparent outer shell has turned yellow.

"What's this?"

Xia Ren took the photo doubtfully.

With the help of the faint light, he could see clearly what was on it.

The moment the picture came into view, Xia Ren's pupils tightened, and the hand holding the photo subconsciously tightened.

The background of the photo is a playground. Even after so many years, Xia Ren can still recognize that this is the playground in the elementary school he attended when he was a child.

The photo was probably taken in autumn. The four children were wearing long-sleeved school uniforms, standing together and smiling at the camera.

Three of the children are Gao Le, Yu Jingjing, and Xia Ren.

The fourth one was a little girl, also wearing a school uniform, similar in age to the other three, and she made a scissor hand towards the camera.

Although the gap was a bit big, because the impression was so profound, Xia Ren recognized at a glance that the fourth little girl in the photo was actually Zhao Mingyue when she was a child!

"It turns out that it wasn't just the first two years. The four of us have known each other since we were very young."

Xia Ren murmured to himself.

But why, I have no memory of her at all, and I have never heard Yu Jingjing and Gao Le mention it.

How much has my memory been tampered with...

"Where did you find this photo?"

Xia Ren asked suddenly.

His reaction was loud and his tone was urgent.

Qin Yun didn't know much about Xia Ren's past, and had never heard of several of his childhood playmates. After hearing this, she said: "Before I came to you, I searched all the places in that small building to see Do you know why you suddenly lost control of your emotions, but things in the building were moved quickly, and I only found this photo in a room on the fourth floor. The child on it looked like you, so I took it with me."

Xia Ren frowned.

I am the source of my parents' madness. They regard me as a monster, and it is impossible for them to take pictures of themselves with them when they come out.

So, was your previous self deliberately placed here?

Just as Xia Ren was thinking about it, there was a sudden vibration in his pocket. It was the foundation's black mobile phone.

He looked at the unknown number on it, paused, and chose to answer it.

"Hello, are you Xia Ren?"
