Aoba Office

My sister is not very interested in setting off fireworks by herself. I remember that when I was in the third grade of junior high school, my class was having a break-up meal. The girls in the class wanted to play with fairy sticks, but the purpose was to take pictures. The little girls also carefully searched for the night view location, bought new clothes and a bunch of fairy sticks, and posed and framed the photos during the shooting. They also spent a lot of time photoshopping afterwards. I saw those photos, and they were so picturesque that I couldn’t even recognize the person. The fireworks from the fairy wands were also extremely gorgeous, completely different from the real thing. My younger sister was very enthusiastic at that time, and she thought that I had a bad figure and bad-looking hands, so I couldn't be used as a prop when traveling abroad. In the end, they asked a tall girl to stretch out her hand as a prop, and everyone took photos with that girl. In the end, the hand was "disfigured beyond recognition".

Thinking of this, I casually asked my sister about her classmates in junior high school.

"We are still in touch. We have been reviewing since our senior year of high school, so we didn't play together. We agreed that we will take another set of photos like that after the exam, and we will also take a set of photos like this when we graduate from college." My sister was very excited. said.

"How will our family celebrate after you finish the college entrance examination?" The topic was changed and my mother began to think about this problem. "Your brother went out for a meal together at that time, and he went on a trip with his classmates."

"I also want to travel..." My sister hugged her mother's arm and smiled flatteringly.

"Okay, you. Children will definitely not be happy to go out and play with us. Let them play by themselves." Dad said to mother.

"We can travel together as a family." My sister said quickly.

My mother began to think about where to travel and discussed it with her sister.

My dad and I were sitting on the sofa watching the Spring Festival Gala. In recent years, due to technological innovation, the Spring Festival Gala has become like a special effects blockbuster. I find it interesting, but my dad thinks it is a bit too exciting and the content has become meaningless.

The sound of the TV, the voices of my mother and sister, my dad and I commenting on the programs...

My mobile phone is in my pocket. I sent a group text message with blessings before, and now the text message tone often rings.

I saw the blessings I sent to Nangong Yao and Gu Mo before. Nangong Yao didn't have a mobile phone, so he replied directly using Gu Mo's account. The content was very traditional, with good luck and good wishes. Gu Mo replied with a simple "Happy New Year".

I suddenly thought of Aoba Supernatural Agency. Inside the office... Ye Qing is alone in the office now, right? The dark and deserted scene of the office came to mind. A place like that is incompatible with the word New Year's Eve.

I hesitated for a while, then sent a message to Gumo's mobile phone, asking where they were now.

The answer was as I expected, the two of them were still in the hotel suite.

I looked at the phone screen in a daze.

"What's wrong?" Dad asked me.

I looked at the time, stood up and said, "I have something to do. Let's go out for a while."

My sister was startled, "Is there anything going on at this time?"

Mom looked at me worriedly, "What happened?"

"It's nothing, just a friend... I'll go take a look and I'll be back soon." I smiled.

Dad looked at me and waved his hand, "Go ahead."

Mom hesitated to speak.

After all, it was New Year's Eve, so it was a bit strange that I suddenly wanted to go out so late at night.

My sister murmured: "Brother, isn't she your girlfriend?"

"Of course not." My head was covered with black lines, I rubbed my sister's head, put on my coat and went out.

Outside, you can see that every house is brightly lit and the roads are deserted.

I breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the community quickly.

I feel like my current behavior is a bit silly, but just thinking about Ye Qing staying alone in a cold office makes me feel like I can't sit down in a warm home.

Ye Qing might have gotten used to the coldness. He had lost his family a long time ago and watched each of his partners disappear or die before his own eyes. Probably, he spent many years alone like this.

But at least, this year is a little different.

Ye Qing said that finding me was the only thing he could do at that time, and he placed his hope on me. I also rescued two people from Aoba. The situation has changed somewhat and is getting better.

Ye Qing should no longer be alone in the office like that...

I quickened my pace. Fortunately, there were still buses running, so I didn't have to run to the Sixth Village of Workers and Peasants. When I got off the bus, I bought two cans of beer from the supermarket and then went to the office.

The upstairs and downstairs of Building 6 are like two worlds. Stepping onto the sixth floor is like entering another space, completely different from the hustle and bustle of New Year's Eve outside.

I opened the office door.

A cold wind blew from the room.

Turning my head to the side, I saw Ye Qing standing next to the filing cabinet. As always, he seemed to be looking out the window. I don't know what he is looking at either. A cozy gathering at other residents’ homes?

Ye Qing heard the movement and probably turned to me.

I was a little embarrassed and raised the beer in my hand, "I...I was thinking about New Year's Eve today..."

"Are you an idiot?" Ye Qing's cold voice came from the room.

I'm not too happy. I came to see him with good intentions, but he said this to me. Neither Gu Mo nor Nangong Yao did this... I looked into the dark corridor, but the door did not appear. I don't have the abilities of those two people, that door doesn't appear, and I don't feel any danger here.

"Just staying for a while..." I still shamelessly entered the office. It would be really embarrassing to leave now.

I sat on the sofa and opened a beer by myself. I felt a little embarrassed and had nothing to say about the demolition.

"... All the residents here should be moved out within this year. If there are no nail-biting households, construction will start at the end of the year... Even if there are several houses that cannot reach an agreement, construction will start on the buildings that have been moved out first. Building No. 6 Let’s take a look inside and see that no one will be considered a nail in the coffin. When the time comes…” This is what I’m most worried about.

Ye Qing didn't respond to me.

I find this topic really unpleasant.

As I drank beer and talked, I came to what Nangong Yao said before.

"...You know the secrets of all of them and their abilities... What will happen if I know? Will I die?...Have you also been in the government expert database where Master Xuan Qing is? It seemed like there before Just because of this something happened..."

"You are not yet capable and mentally prepared to bear it." Ye Qing said suddenly.

Judging from the sound, he was right behind me. I didn't look back. Instead, I lowered my head and looked at the beer can. After drinking it in one gulp, I squashed the can.

"You're right, I can't imagine what that would be like." I sighed and changed the subject, "You can't eat, right? I drank the other can too."

This made me realize that my behavior of buying beer was very stupid.

Ye Qing didn't scold me for this.

I opened the can and took two more sips. "What about the other people? What about the other people who know these things about us? What will happen to them?"

Ye Qing continued to remain silent.

"I don't want to encounter the things you went through... Sometimes I don't know what I would do if I encountered something like that... I might be told by Gu Mo and become a particularly troublesome evil ghost... ..." I whispered.

Occasionally, I think about Gu Mo's words and feel that they still make sense. Even if I can now be confident that I will not turn into an evil ghost after death, who knows what I will look like when I actually die? If one thing goes wrong, I might be picked on by Gu Mo...

Two cans of beer were not enough to make me drunk, but in the quiet environment of Qingye Supernatural Office, I couldn't help but feel an uneasy feeling of fear.

At home, I think about this. Here, I will think of my warm home again.

This place used to be like that, right? At least when the people from Aoba gathered together, the atmosphere here was relaxed.

Will my home also...

I found that my hands were shaking slightly.

This is really not a good association.

I picked up the empty can and wanted to leave this place immediately to let the negative energy in my heart dissipate as soon as possible.

"Okay, I won't disturb you anymore, I'm going back first. By the way, Happy New Year."

I was about to stand up when Ye Qing held my shoulders down.
