Dream of Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 70 Helpless in life

Mengli walked on the street, feeling depressed.

After she came back from the undersea tomb, the old man moved from the villa back to the main house of the Meng family, and everything was cleaned up, as if he would never go back to the villa again.

She asked the old man the reason, but the old man just said that she often went to the grave and had no time to accompany him, but when she returned to the main house, there were a lot of people chatting with him.And there is their home, the villa is just a place to live, when people get old, it's time to go home...

My father was born and raised in the main house, and so was she.The main house is a special existence for everyone in Mengjia, especially the older generation.

Mengli sighed, thinking: Are you really ignoring grandpa?Otherwise, grandpa wouldn't want her to marry early, settle down, take care of her husband and teach her children...

After thinking everything through, Mengli no longer worries, and feels that she should do something to make up for the old man.

"Di--" a piercing whistle sounded.

Before Mengli could react, she fell into an embrace, and the car sped by.

"Brother?" Mengli came out of that embrace, a little dazed, and then found that when she was thinking about something, her vigilance dropped and she didn't notice the existence of the little brother, "Why aren't you with Tianzhen and the others? "

"Boring." The younger brother's voice was flat.

The corner of Mengli's mouth twitched, that's better than you being in a daze of boredom, right?

"Brother, you are getting better at telling cold jokes." Mengli patted his shoulder with deep relief.

Feeling the stiffness of the little brother's body, Mengli withdrew her hand embarrassingly.She knew that he subconsciously wanted to react defensively just now, but restrained himself abruptly.

"Looking for a place to chat?" Meng Li's tone was flat. According to her understanding of her brother, he would never follow her along such a long way in boredom unless he had something to talk to her about.Unless, of course, he's lost...

Sure enough, the little brother nodded.

Artificial lake.

Mengli leaned on the railing, looked sideways at the little brother who was looking at the sky at 45°, and said helplessly: "Brother, if you keep looking at it like this, it will be dark, and I should go home... just ask if you have anything to do. I will definitely answer."

"Do you know something?" The little brother withdrew his gaze, staring at Mengli with deep eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.

"What do you know?" Mengli turned to look at the lake, "I don't know what you're asking." Her eyes dodged a little, as if she was hiding something.

Mengli didn't expect the little brother to ask so directly.If it's naive or fat, she might answer fluently and lie all the time.

But in the face of her little brother—her belief, she didn't want to cheat, but she had to. All of this was doomed since she came into this world...

"From Inner Mongolia to Qixing Lu Palace, and then to Xisha Undersea Tomb, you seem to know something in advance, but plan something," the younger brother said his thoughts in a deep voice, his eyes were slightly cold, "It's hard to understand. "

"You are also incomprehensible, little brother!" Meng Li's eyebrows were curved, but her eyes were alienated, "Why didn't you ask me from the beginning? It's really hurtful for you to mention it now!"

Hearing Mengli's tone of voice, the little brother frowned.

Mengli didn't care about him, and said to herself: "Everyone has their own difficulties, why should they be aggressive and hurt others and themselves because of these?"

"Know what?" Mengli whispered softly, her eyes dimmed and lowered, "I also want to know something, and I don't want to know anything... Some things, I would rather let it become an eternal mystery than let it appear In front of the eyes of the world..."

Lost innocence, forgetting to go home...

"What are you planning... Life is always planned, either in your own hands or in the hands of others..."

"There are too many helplessness in life, just like you, lost memory, want to find it, but don't know where to start..."

Hearing Mengli's words, the little brother narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling confused.

"This incident never happened, you and I don't remember..." Mengli left this sentence and turned to leave.

"Under the setting sun by the West Lake, the rubbing shoulders on the long street, what is the starting point... You blindfolded me, shielding me from the incompleteness of the world... When you return, restore my innocence..."

When the singing sound came, the little brother's eyes flickered, and then he returned to calm, turned and left.

Two people, two directions, no intersection...

Mengli looked up at the setting sun in the sky, a tear rolled down the corner of her eye.

"I... am also human..."

I also have my own feelings...

Everyone said that if there is a gain, there must be a loss, but I haven't gained anything, and I don't want to gain anything.

But why...
