If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon.

When he came back to his senses, Lin Nian found himself standing in a corridor with mottled walls on both sides. Black iron doors were separated by five meters. The bright red paint on the door was particularly dazzling. The sound of howling wind and snow came.

Lin Nian felt a little cold. He lowered his head and looked at his clothes. It was a white hospital gown with iron chains on his hands, feet, and neck. He looked along the direction of the iron chains and found that five iron chains were connected. Behind me, the darkness of the corridor is deep and I don't know where it ends.

Here it is again.

Lin Nian felt a sense of familiarity for some reason. This feeling came inexplicably, as if he was in a dream. The confused person in the dream felt that he had encountered this dream before, and Lin Nian also felt that he had been here before. Every brick and every inch of soil in this place has a hint of kindness in the biting cold.

"Hello!"

Lin Nian suddenly heard someone calling him. He turned around and found a blond girl sitting cross-legged on the ground in front of the corridor, holding her chin with her right hand and looking at him with her left hand raised in the air to say hello.

Lin Nian was stunned for a long time looking at the girl. He couldn't see the girl's face clearly, but he felt that the girl looked familiar inexplicably, but he couldn't name her. He seemed to have seen her somewhere before, so what if he thought about it now? Can't catch the thread either.

Everything is hazy, as if it is not so real in the fog.

Since he couldn't remember, he might as well get closer and take a closer look at the other person. Maybe he would be able to remember something if he looked more carefully. But when Lin Nian took a step forward, he only felt that the chains on his hands and feet were extremely heavy. As he stepped forward, the five iron chains straightened their ends and extended into the depths of darkness.

"It's too early." The girl looked at Lin Nian who was trying hard to move but didn't move at all.

Lin Nian seemed to realize that he was doing useless work. The five chains on his body were too heavy, and it was difficult for him to stand upright, so he stopped and sat down, looking numbly at the blond hair from a distance. The girl's somewhat blurry face.

"Does what happened today comfort you?" the girl asked, looking at Lin Nian from a distance.

What's up?

Lin Nian replied subconsciously, his brain feeling as if he was dreaming.

"You know what I'm talking about." The girl looked at Lin Nian with a smile while holding her feet and shaking her body.

At this time, Lin Nian suddenly flashed many fragmentary pictures in front of his eyes, including the sunset, giants, blood, sea, etc.

Helena.

Lin Nian said.

Task.

He said again after a moment.

"Yes, the mission." The girl nodded: "Do you feel comforted by completing the mission?"

Lin Nian's expression was dull, as if a ton of cement had been poured into his head, and his thoughts were being stirred like a heavy weight.

"Oh, it looks like the medicine is indeed very powerful." The girl looked at Lin Nian and smiled bitterly, shaking her head.

medicine? What medicine?

Lin Nian felt that his head had grown many times bigger for no reason. He raised his hands to support his forehead and tried his best to prevent his head from falling to the ground. The weight of the chains on his body became heavier and heavier.

"Take your time, don't be anxious, there has to be a process." The girl stood up and walked to the side of the corridor and opened a door with a slap: "Let me ask another question, the life you are living now is the life you really want. life?"

Behind the door, the setting sun shone into the dim corridor. Lin Nian looked over blankly. Behind the door, there was a three-meter-long man with his back to the setting sun. The boy jumped up high and kicked the hilt of the giant man's knife in the left eye. Above, blood overflowed.

At this moment, the joy, excitement, and excitement surged into his heart. For some reason, he felt very satisfied, just like a hungry person throwing himself on bread, and his mouth was filled with joy.

"Killing, justice, peace?" The girl tilted her head: "Do you want to be an executioner?"

Killing.

Yes, you killed someone. Who was that person?

Lin Nian slapped his head hard to clear up his chaotic thinking. At this time, the girl had already walked to the iron door on the opposite side with her hands behind her back and kicked it open: "Or, you are more eager for the peace, indifference, and peace of the past. Safety."

Inside the second iron door, the sound of cooking oil could be heard. Lin Nian sniffed and smelled a very familiar smell. He turned around and saw in the iron door next to the girl who was leaning against the wall. I saw the familiar layout of the rental house, the simple kitchen, and the back of the woman humming and cooking.

His mood suddenly calmed down, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes, and all the restless emotions calmed down as the freezing cold wind blew over him.

Two doors opened on both sides of the girl. She stood in the middle of the corridor and looked at him calmly: "After so many years, we have to make a choice, Lin Nian, now is the time."

Why is now the time?

Lin Nian really wanted to ask this, but he found that he could not speak. As time went by, the slow and heavy feeling of falling became more and more obvious. Now his mouth seemed to be sewn shut, and his tongue filled the whole mouth. It feels sticky and sluggish, and my eyelids feel as if they are glued. Every time I open and close them, they feel heavy, as if I have to exert all my strength to open them.

"Because it's time." The girl ignored Lin Nian's embarrassment and said, "When you encounter a 'thing', you have to make a 'choice'. The 'choice' you make represents your What kind of person are you? This is a normal thing, isn't it? When you accepted the notice in that coastal city, it was a choice. Now, I give you another chance to make a choice. You can make great progress from now on, and also You can give up having your hands stained with blood and return to the peace you once had.”

Do I have to make a choice?

Lin Nian was still a little confused. The girl looked at him and shook her head helplessly: "Look back."

Lin Nian turned around obediently. His perspective shifted as he turned his head, from looking down to looking up, from sitting to lying down. He saw a familiar ward with snow-white walls, porcelain white vases, and empty hospital beds. .

hospital bed.

empty.

Why are the hospital beds empty?

His vision suddenly became much clearer. Through the moonlight shining through the window, he saw a burly figure at the door of the ward. He was 1.8 meters tall and had a broad back. When he turned his head, his golden eyes were as bright as the moon. He He seems to be carrying something in his waist. Someone? Is he carrying someone around his waist? who is he? Why is he here?

"He is the murderer you are looking for." The girl seemed to be unable to bear it, and sighed as a reminder.

murderer

murderer.

murderer! murderer! murderer!

Bloody Face Killer, Executive Department, Mission, Commissioner, Seven Victims, Survivors.

"Helena." Lin Nian opened his mouth with difficulty and made a sound. His consciousness finally began to return. Countless memory fragments poured into his mind. He remembered everything. Yes, the murderer was not dead. They killed the wrong person. Yes, the murderer is still alive!

"Helena, Helena, Helena, who never forgets my thoughts in my dreams, you have only known each other for less than a day." The girl mumbled and snapped her fingers. The ward in front of Lin Nian disappeared, and he returned to the seemingly endless place. dark corridor.

"Is this a dream?" Lin Nian tried his best to open his eyes wide. His thinking logic recovered a little, but his body was still difficult to move. He lay on the ground, with five chains pressing on his body, preventing him from moving.

"So, it's time to 'make a choice.'" The girl squatted on the ground in front of Lin Nian at some point, and looked down at him with her face raised.

"I still have things to finish." Lin Nian murmured in a low voice, "I still have things to finish."

The girl quietly looked at Lin Nian who seemed to be talking in his sleep without doing anything.

The corridor was quiet for a long time. Finally, she sighed, stretched out her hand and touched Lin Nian's head and said calmly: "It seems that you have made a 'choice'. You don't hate this kind of life. In that case, then... Go ahead and do it, but you have to remember, Lin Nian, the 'choice' you make today will one day lead you back to the road 'home' again. That is something I don't want to see, but it is bound to happen. tragedy."

The girl suddenly stood up and walked to Lin Nian's side. She raised her hand and solemnly picked up the heavy iron chain on his right leg. The iron chain was as thick as a wrist, but the girl carried it as easily as if it were nothing.

At the same moment, there was a blood-curdling roar deep in the corridor, and the bloody waves blew like a hurricane. It was simply the roar of Satan coming from hell, and the entire corridor trembled, cracked, and cracked. Climbing along the wall to the ceiling, the iron door also shook with the roar.

All the signs meant that once Lin Nian's chain broke, something terrible would happen.

The girl held the iron chain and turned her head to look into the depths of darkness and said two words lightly:

"Shut up."

Just like the emperor's decree, at this moment, the roar suddenly stopped, the cold wind penetrated from one end to the other, and the corridor fell into dead silence again, and only Lin Nian's heavy breathing could be heard.

"Good boy," the girl said.

She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she broke the chain like a weak rope.

At this moment, it was like a switch was turned on, and the indescribable power of hot springs began to fill Lin Nian's body on the ground. His thinking gradually became clearer, his hands and feet regained strength, and his eyes ignited again. In the light of the fire, his flowing blood became hot and boiling again!

"Word Spirit, Setsuna, now it has been unblocked for you. This is one of the powers you are proud of. In a sense, it has no limit. Use it well." The girl knelt down and kissed Lin Nian's forehead. , there are still four chains on his body, even if only one is broken, the terrifying thing lurking in the darkness will still cause huge agitation.

Lin Nian, whose body temperature soared sharply, reluctantly raised his head. He finally remembered why the girl was so familiar, because he had dreamed of her countless times, and this girl had accompanied him throughout his life so far.

He felt an urgency to see the girl's face clearly, but the girl reached out and covered his eyes and said softly: "It's not the time yet, it's not the time yet."

She gently lowered her head to Lin Nian's ear: "Since you have chosen this path, then go to the end. I will be by your side no matter what, because we have agreed."

"We want to go to that spring world together." Lin Young, who was blindfolded, said in a low voice. His blindfolded eyes were not completely dark. On the contrary, at this moment, he really opened his eyes.

For the first time, dreams and reality were so blurred.

In Ward 1201, Lin Nian stared at the ceiling blankly, tears hanging on the side of his face.

The hospital bed was soaked with a huge amount of sweat, and heat rose from the boy's wet body on the bed. The ward was filled with mist, and everything was shrouded in dreamlike mist, making it unclear whether the expression on the boy's face was sadness or joy.

Yan Ling·Shu Mo, third level, 8 times faster metabolism.

The powerful and deadly medicine was completely discharged from the body. Lin Nian woke up from his deep sleep and regained the ability to think and act. He turned his head and looked to his side. The empty bed next to him was full of traces left by his ancestors. The warm Bedding, messy folds, and a faint scent.

After just one glance, he didn't want to look again. He sat up and bent over to type in the password on the combination lock on the bedside table, and took out a half-meter-long short knife and a Glock from it.

He placed the short knife flat on his knees, took out the Glock magazine, and ejected the Frigga bullets with red bullets one by one with his thumbs. After emptying all the bullets, he touched his pocket and took out a refractor. The steel core bullet shines in the bright moonlight outside the window.

He filled it in, slapped it into the magazine, loaded it, and stuck it in his waist.

After everything was done, Lin Nian picked up the dagger and walked out of the ward in silence. His golden eyes were as hot as fire in the darkness.
