Scumbag bosses have become paranoid villains

After confirming that the host was conscious, 444 hesitantly asked the last question.

"If you successfully complete the influence of the attack target, host, when the time comes... what do you plan to do with Bodhisattva?"

Yu Ge clenched his fists calmly, and his voice was obviously hoarse when he spoke again.

"Even if Lanti has great powers, she can only be confined to the parallel small world. Will she still find out the existence of the Administration and break into the real time and space?"

"That's unlikely."

The system rarely showed some reliability, and he waved his hand very seriously.

"But she regards you as a fast traveler who is forced to travel through time and space. After you die in this world, she will continue to search for your soul, which will affect other parallel worlds. On the other hand... .”

It lowered its voice, "She was able to detect your existence this time because of the loopholes in the information barrier of this world. In the final analysis, this was just an accident. If you die like this, she will still hold on to hope. Waiting for you, isn't it a bit...too inhuman?"

Its worries are not fake at all, after all, even Bodhisattva himself has promised...

——"Even if we get separated from each other one day, I can always find you in the boundless and vast world."

The young host was silent for a few minutes, and finally picked up the script again. She stopped her finger on the word "Lan He", fumbled for a while, and then sighed deeply.

"...Even I don't believe it, I really can't let her go."

The voice was almost imperceptible, and 444 didn't hear it clearly for a while, but before it had time to get to the bottom of it, it saw the host typing a few lines down, under those dark and delicate eyelashes, There is only an ice-like calmness and determination.

——If it wasn't able to monitor mood swings in real time, it would almost think that the flash of hesitation was just its own illusion.

"Since the existence of Bodhisattva will not affect the progress of the mission itself, telling the truth is the easiest way."

Yu Ge lowered his eyes, just in time to meet 444's surprised expression.

She calmly said: "It's not a big deal, you just treat it as... a person who is about to die should speak kindly."

……

Yu Ge's coma lasted for two days and one night.

In the early morning of the third day, Lan He walked into the bedroom with a hot towel in her hands, only to see the young woman sitting alone on the rocking chair on the balcony, looking out the window absent-mindedly.The silhouette was so calm and stable, the black and greasy hair spread across the snow-white neck, colliding with a clean and plain color.

It was supposed to be a joyful scene, but Lan He felt an unspeakable pain in her heart. She calmed down and squatted down in front of the rocking chair.

"Come on, wipe your face first, the porridge is warmed for you in the kitchen, why don't you drink some water before going to eat?"

The tone of the tone was neither too fast nor too slow, so that people couldn't hear the slightest abnormality, but Yu Ge seemed to be unable to react at all, and after a while, he quietly lowered his eyes.

Perhaps it was because she had slept for too long and was still a little bit sleepy. The moisture on her eyelashes hadn't dried out yet, and when she lowered her eyelashes and spread them out, a tiny halo of light was reflected under the light.

She froze for a while, then separated her clenched hands and spread them on both sides of the other's shoulders.

It was a gesture asking for a hug, revealing a natural intimacy and attachment, almost overwhelming.

Lan He sat down very cooperatively and hugged her into his arms. When the figures overlapped, even the heartbeats resonated against each other's chests, showing a kind of unspoken tenderness.

Yu Ge buried her face deeply into her collar. At first she could only feel the other's delicate and slightly itchy breath, but within a few tens of seconds, the close-fitting fabric was completely soaked by the scalding liquid. The child in her arms was so dumb and trembling because she hadn't eaten for a long time, and even the softest and most secret place in her chest was filled with hot, sour and bitter warmth.

Lan He's eyes finally sank completely.

"Xiaoge, you know your own situation well, tell me the truth, what the hell is going on with you?"

She pursed her lips into white, and her expression showed a very rare sharpness. In the posture of the two embracing each other, she gently wrapped Yu Ge's sweaty back of the neck, and lifted the other's head from her shoulders. Hard dug out.

Immediately afterwards, she watched helplessly how a round tear broke free from her eye socket, and how it shattered in her palm.

"...I'm sorry, Randy, I'm sorry."

Even though she had pulled away from this embrace, Yu Ge's hands were still tightly clutching her skirt with such strength that even her nails were stretched blue and white, and the worry and haste in her movements could not be concealed at all.

"I have to die, I have to... die."

Rao is a Bodhisattva, and she has never heard such outrageous remarks. For a moment, she felt a little absurd and very sympathetic, but the next second, when she saw Yu Ge's disastrous and terrified appearance, she felt that she was running away The warm blood gradually condensed, freezing every blood vessel from her head to her feet brittle.

"I've been lying to you, Randy, I'm not from this world. I originally...I didn't belong to any world."

Yu Ge's fingers loosened little by little, and gradually opened the gap between the two. The hands in front of her were still convulsed, but the crying of the other party stopped suddenly, and instead, only A restrained and subdued peace.

"Having entanglements with you is a part of my work that I have to deal with. In order to escape smoothly without causing doubts, I can only survive in each world for a certain number of years. When the time is up, I must die. "

"Lanti," she said softly, "you are just one of my tasks, and now, it's time for us to say goodbye."

Even in the most ridiculous plays, there is no such drama.

These words seem to have rolled through Yu Ge's mind countless times. She expressed them fluently and clearly. In just a few seconds, she pushed the situation to an irreversible situation, although there were more or less Premonition, when Lan He really heard this remark, he still felt surprised and torn.

Those tortuous and strange experiences turned out to be false.

Those karmas ordained by heaven... are just a trivial part of this deception.

Rationally, she should be angry, question, and trace the source of every word Yu Ge said, but emotionally...

Her tear-soaked neckline still had a biting chill that couldn't be ignored.

Yu Ge's tears are real, Yu Ge's pulse trembling at the same frequency as hers is real, and the tens of thousands of years Yu Ge and her have spent together are real.

Even if the motives in this getting along are not 100% pure, but also mixed with definite maturity and deception... In the final analysis, it is also the result of her willingness.

With undeniable tenderness, the god gently closed her eyes, and kissed the other's tightly closed lips. In the entanglement of breaths, countless eccentric memory fragments, like a flock of shimmering swallows, fled from her mind one after another. After that, the uproar dispersed again.

The little cubs crawling at her feet, the girl Di Ting who stretched out her hand to her on the rosette, the distressed believers who protected the Bodhisattva's soul under the billowing thunder, the cautious, unwavering, and lingering... ...So many intricate and bizarre pictures were intertwined, but in the end, only the frail human being in front of her was left, overlapping perfectly with the immature face in her memory.

She raised her hand stiffly and wiped the water stains on Yu Ge's lips, her breathing was a little unsteady.

"Xiaoge, you know that I will find you again, why do you still tell me this?"

Whether it's work or tasks, or accidental changes when you die, these are all reasons that can't be verified... Why is it necessary to come and tell her the truth behind it, and why choose such a fate that is destined to be unlucky? When it's time to protect yourself, come and analyze the cause and effect of hurting others and yourself with her?

Yu Ge did not refuse her kiss, but she could no longer see the slightest trace of lingering and ambiguous from the other's face.

Rather than saying it was apathetic indifference, that look was actually more like a feeling of dying numbness, as if he was resigned to the suffering imposed by fate, neither intending to struggle hard, nor willing to explain further.

"Because I don't want you to find me again."

The summer mountain wind poured in from the window lattice, setting off the crisp ringing of the copper bells in the courtyard. The wind lightly carried all the sweetness of love, and also blew away all the blood, tears and pains heavily, lying unjustly across them. between.

Yu Ge exhausted all her strength to suppress the trembling between her teeth. She bit so hard that when she opened her mouth, bright and ferocious blood oozes from between her teeth.

She lowered her eyebrows and remained silent for a while, calmly straightening the sleeves of the other party. The movement was unusually slow and solemn, as if being frozen frame by frame in the camera. She thought she could drag this moment to a long and endless to the point of, but that really only happened in the blink of an eye.

Her gaze was still lingering between the other's brows and eyes, but her voice sounded calm and calm, and she couldn't even find the slightest mistake.

"Lanti, I'm sorry, you should go back to your own world. Your existence will have a bad impact on other worlds. The longer you stay here, the sooner I will die..."

The faint and distant chirping of insects echoed in the quiet mountain forest, and gradually became blurred in the wind, turning into a long and faint whine.

444 frightenedly rubbed the palm of the host's palm, only to be surprised that the delicate and cold palm was soaked in a layer of wet and slippery cold sweat.

It took out a box of tissues and reminded in a low voice: "Host, host, the Bodhisattva has already left, you...don't cry anymore."

Yu Ge covered his eyes with one hand.

Although she didn't make a sound, the large tear stains flowed down her pale cheeks, falling so much and so fast that even the thin skin was soaked red, and even her stomach was smothered because of holding back so hard. The entire chest cavity was violently twitching at a frequency visible to the naked eye.

"……I know."

She paused for a long time before letting out a blocked and hoarse whimper from her nasal cavity. The breath that was choked in her chest could not be smoothed out for a while, making her humming even in the depths of her eardrum, as if pouring into it. Holding cold water, I couldn't hear a sound.

"Give me another five minutes," she repeated, "five minutes will do."

In front of her, the task script had been automatically updated with the host's changes, and the spread script was blown away page by page by the wind, but there was no trace of a single word, which belonged to outsiders.

……

Even Tan Linfei herself never expected that she could bring Yu Ge back to her side one day.

She originally planned to wait in Guiyun Temple until her soul was gone, but after three or five days of hesitation, Yu Ge was alone, holding on to the mottled yellow wall of the temple, and moved out step by step.

——Compared to the state when he left the villa half a month ago, this child is more than a little bit sluggish, and even the cuffs are bloody and dirty. At a glance, he even looks like a grieving ghost wandering around the world than her.

The evil ghost held the other party in his arms, and only felt a surge of turbulent and warm pity from the depths of her bone marrow. Before she realized where this feeling came from, there was a stronger and more intense feeling. The tingling sensation emerged from the inside out, completely overwhelmed her.

Because Yu Ge couldn't even walk in a straight line, he had to put all his weight on her.

If she was still alive, she would definitely be satisfied with this unavoidable dependence, but at this moment, Yu Ge's weakness seems to be life-threatening, making her nervous and unable to don't panic.

Is it for that Buddhist mage...?

For a woman who met and fell in love in another world, do you want to make yourself like this?

Jealousy and unwillingness are like poisonous snakes spitting out letters, circling under her empty ribs into the shape of a heart, but she is not qualified to question, let alone criticize others. Yu Ge's arm was trembling slightly.

"No...don't take me to the hospital, it's not Ranti's fault."

A palm that was too hot due to high heat was attached to her cold skin.

Yu Ge turned his head slightly, his eyes were not focused, but his eyes still fell firmly on her face, as if only by this action could he see her expression clearly.

"She's not from this world, so she can't stay here for long, and I don't belong to this world anymore. It won't be long before it's time for me to leave."

She curled up her fingers and gently licked the palm of the other party.

"Talking about Linfei, I don't have anything else to give you, but we'll be a husband and wife anyway, if you still have any obsession or reluctance for me, just like this... come and see me off for the last time."

——The outsiders have to leave, and those who live have to pay for their lives. Fate is going around with twisted malice, dragging everyone back to the original path.

So what should she do?

Tan Linfei couldn't figure it out, and she didn't want to think about it. According to Yu Ge's wishes, she brought her dying young wife back to the old house of Yu's family, and put her in the room where Yu Ge used to live when he was a child.

Nothing in that room had changed.

Ling Xiaohua outside the window will still block half of the window, the yellowed white tables and chairs are still easy to accumulate dust, the broken classical guitar is still left unused in the corner, and even the practice questions that Yu Ge has only written a few pages are still difficult to understand. It was tucked away intact in the corner of the bookcase. .seven

Tan Linfei stayed by the bed all day long, as if even the bones of her neck were calcified, she stood there motionless, and now, amidst the ups and downs of numbness, there was only a sticky and solid figure left behind, which was more slender than ever. More like a ghost, lifeless, emotionless, and intentionless.

She just stayed there, and she didn't know if she was waiting for an old friend who didn't live long, or was indulging in a time that never came back.

[Probation progress: 69%]

……

The process of slowly approaching death is often embarrassing and unbearable.

After lying in the bedroom for thirteen or four days, Yu Ge couldn't eat anything anymore, and even rice soup could be vomited out of her stomach. At this time, she actually couldn't care less about face. One time, before she had time to support her upper body, the juice of the food would even rush into her nasal cavity, and then flow out together.

But she herself has no time at all, he thought, she didn't even have the energy to take a shower after vomiting, and would fall into a deep sleep again and again in deep breaths, as if her limbs were filled with boiling iron juice, and her whole body Every nerve in my body reveals a heavy soreness.

Tan Linfei wiped the patient's hands, and stuffed the ashen white forearm back into the quilt. During the time when she was dying of serious illness, Yu Ge completely refused to communicate with her. At first, she thought it was Due to affection, she may not be able to gather strength, but after a long time, she also slowly came back to it.

——Yu Ge and her probably have nothing to say.

If she were Yu Ge, what could she say?

Do we miss the bright and beautiful youth together, blame her for the unforgivable and irreversible old things, or appreciate her for taking care of me these days?

No matter which point is brought out, it seems that there is no need to say more.

She used one hand to easily wrap around Yu Ge's neck. The skin was slightly loose due to excessive weight loss, but it still maintained a delicate and tender touch. More importantly, under this thin layer of skin Beneath it, there was a tenaciously pumping weak pulse.

Although weak, Yu Ge was indeed still alive.

The evil ghost didn't realize the sense of threat contained in this movement. Most of the time when Yu Ge couldn't open her eyes, she wore a calm and cold expression, but all the feelings in her heart were hazy. of.

She seems to have returned to her childhood when she was ignorant of external emotions. She can even confuse pain and fear, and can't tell the difference between thoughtfulness and hypocrisy. Even when her loving grandparents died of illness at the same time, she can stand by her mother indifferently. , to handle all the subtleties properly for the elders present.

She took the perfect code of conduct as the standard, but never experienced the slightest joy or self-satisfaction.

It feels like there is a layer of deep and cold sea water separated from the outside world. She can't understand the feelings of others, and others can't hear her cries. After experiencing a large amount of mood swings, I finally got the only thing that can put my feelings on.

If Yu Ge was gone, he would take this ability with him.

In the silent bedroom, she leaned down and kissed the back of Yu Ge's hand repeatedly. In this scene, it seemed that the one who was at a disadvantage and asked for grace was Yu Ge in a coma. With all his thoughts and calculations, the one kneeling in the mud, pleading with the other party to stretch out his hand...

From beginning to end, it was only her.

[Probation progress: 74%]

……

Even in the irresistible semi-comatose state, Yu Ge looked unusually restless. Once she left people around, she would always utter a vague and panicked raving, even though those intermittent words could not be connected into sentences at all. , the fear and panic in this voice were clear enough, as if she was always wandering in one nightmare after another, unable to get out, and unable to call out.

This is actually very unusual, because her body is really too weak without water, and the remaining energy is not even enough to support the active cerebral cortex of Nightmare. I'm struggling to overdraw my life.

One night, she was so dazed with fever that she woke up from a nightmare like this. Before Tan Linfei could ask aloud, the other party suddenly grabbed her fingers.

——It was really pinching, because Yu Ge's fingers were so numb that she couldn't even feel it. She didn't even realize that her nails had pierced into the flesh of the evil spirit.

With the dim yellow night light beside the bed, Tan Linfei could only see the misty eyes of the other party, so moist and so bright, as if filled with two handfuls of broken moons in the water.

"...Sister, I dreamed about our childhood."

She got closer, and Yu Ge's hot and trembling breath lingered in her ears. The breath was already very weak, and she couldn't feel it if she didn't stick to it, but it poured into her mind along the eardrum like this, and brushed every root in the cranial cavity. Nerves, like a hurricane sweeping through lava, set off a hot and long-lasting stinging pain.

"I dreamed that when I was fifteen or sixteen years old, I insisted on sleeping with you in the summer. My mother complained that I was ignorant, and was afraid that I would affect your rest, so you pulled me to smooth things over, saying that just a little sister like me was willing to leave me alone forever Take it with you..."

Yu Ge swallowed hard, and then coughed violently again. The muffled cough seemed to come straight from her lungs. She managed to stop her panting, and a large amount of light-colored blood flowed from her It overflowed between the teeth and touched Tan Linfei's side face.

She was a little puzzled, but also a little smug, that smile was so pale and short that it was almost too late for people to think about it.

"Sister, at that time, you already liked me, you still... still really loved me, right?"

These words finally broke through her crumbling psychological defense.

The sour feeling mixed with remorse was like corrosive venom, flowing through every inch of her body along the blood vessels, and the evil ghost even had a strange illusion in the severe pain, feeling that he could not even use this empty surface. To be completely melted from the inside.

Yu Ge temporarily woke up for a moment, and gave her an ice-breaking emotional experience. It was like grinding rough salt grains on the wound. It was obviously an old wound, but it could still gurgle. Blood flowed out.

... She thought Yu Ge had forgotten.

Her childhood sweetheart had spent countless years in a different world, with others by her side, and even in a situation she could never have imagined, she had cultivated a more mature and resolute character. She thought Yu Ge had already put all these dusty and bloody past events behind him.

She thought that the love and hurt that happened here had been eliminated layer by layer by time, and that she was the only one holding on to the past and refusing to let go.

It turned out that Yu Ge also remembered it.

She wanted to ask Yu Ge if those long and bright past events had turned into a nightmare; she wanted to confess to Yu Ge again and again, saying that at that time she was really tempted and really wanted to love she.

But Yu Ge had already buried his side face in the pillow, and fell into the next dream alone.

Taking advantage of the sunset in the late summer evening, she held Yu Gexu in her arms again, and brushed his dry and flaky cheeks with her knuckles.

"I... In my life, there is only Xiaoge, my sister."

She hadn't spoken for a long time, and her voice was so hoarse that it was sticky, as if it was blocked by a sour and sharp lump, blood would ooze out as soon as she opened her mouth.

"I will always take her by my side and take good care of her forever."

She lowered her head slightly, and the dark purple blood snaked down the tails of her long and narrow eyes, reflecting on Yu Ge's pale lips.

"I really do love her, I always, always...very much in love with her."

On a certain moonlit night many years ago, she also took advantage of Yu Ge's sleeping stall to confess softly to her soon-to-be-adult sister.

At that time, with a fresh heart of flesh and blood and full of feelings of first love, she said that she liked and loved, thanked for her companionship and staying together, promised the future and the rest of her life, and poured out all the miscellaneous and hypocritical words she learned when she was young. The night wind that no one listens to.

Fortunately, no one heard.

Because in the following ten years, all the deliberate harm and destruction were hidden behind those love words, and became arsenic covered with sugar grains, which she fed to Yu Ge with her own hands one by one.

She hoped that Yu Ge could come and settle all this with her, and take revenge on her with hatred, so that she could get a little bit of relief and relief.

However, under the circumstances, this hope is doomed to fail.

[Probation progress: 80%]

……

When the weather was about to turn cold, Yu Ge's fever finally subsided.

That was actually a very ominous sign, she no longer had dreams, and she no longer coughed up blood, as if accepting the pain inflicted by fate meekly, and no longer had the strength to resist in any way, on a certain morning, the evil ghost Holding her icy fingers was like holding a little spark that was burning to the end and was about to be engulfed.

The finger suddenly shook violently, and she raised her head in palpitation-like astonishment, and saw Yu Ge stubbornly grabbing one of her index fingers just like when she was sleeping when she was a child.

"Xiaoge, you... you're awake."

She has said this countless times.

——When I wanted to pull my finger out of Singer Yu's heart, when I lifted the quilt to get up at night, when I kissed each other quietly in the early morning of insomnia, when Yu Ge fell asleep and woke up because of a mental disorder...

But there was never a time when she could feel such a sense of hopelessness and powerlessness.

She stared at Yu Ge without blinking, and there was a rattling panting sound from her chest, like a dilapidated and rusty old bellows.

Yu Ge's face was a strange and terrifying gray red. She hung her breath, facing the completely collapsed skin, and put all the remaining strength into the outstretched hand.

"When I was traveling in other worlds, I heard people mention the place where the dead go. I heard that there is no light, no sound, and I can't even tell the difference between day and night."

Fate has crushed her life repeatedly with a weight enough to crush every inch of flesh and blood into mud, but even in such a dying situation, her eyes are still full of water, looking so warm and affectionate , clearly reflected the shadow of the opposite party who was beyond recognition, even though the times have changed, it has never changed a bit.

"Sister, I'm afraid it's meaningless for you to stay here. Do you want to go to that place with me?"

Yu Ge finally closed his eyes slowly.

At the last moment, fate finally gave her a little pity, dizziness and drowsiness intertwined into a peaceful and peaceful giant net, wrapping her soul tenderly.

Tan Linfei's pupils suddenly constricted.

There is no light, no sound, and it is impossible to distinguish day from night, but there...she still has Yu Ge.

——Yu Ge...is willing to take her away with her.

Fragments of countless memories flew into the sky like flowing water, intertwined into a complex and confusing illusion, whistling past her, and then faded away with the wind, forever lost in the endless time, but the joy in her heart was intertwined with longing , the road ahead is unknown, dangerous and gloomy, but she can only feel unprecedented ease.

Like a person submerged in the sea, choking so much that his heart and lungs are full of salt and bitterness, he can't even call for help, but suddenly he sees a hand that breaks through the ice and enters the sea surface, bringing the infinite light with him, spreading it out in front of her.

She tried her best to stretch out her hand in mid-air, the ignorant girl who entrusted her love and pity when she was a teenager, the innocent and joyful young lover at the wedding, and Yu Ge who reappeared in front of her and bid farewell to her in tears, all the truth and illusion overlapped Formed into the same shadow, bent down in the void, and quietly held her fingertips——

In the depths of the unreachable distant mountains, there was a long and ethereal bell ringing, and the scattered spirit body fell apart in the faded old days, turning into tiny and imperceptible dust all over the sky.

She seemed to be completely dead, and it seemed that from this moment on, she was finally... reborn.

【Probation progress; 100%】

……

Yu Ge realized that he was still in a dream.

She seemed to be sitting in a tall tower, looking down at the surrounding environment through a narrow window, but there was nothing on the ground, only large flakes of snow fluttering down, The white snow on the high mountains under the light is like translucent glass, and wherever the eyes can see, pure white enough to blind is piled up.

Maybe it was because of the influence of the task, maybe it was because of the chilling chill, she was suddenly captured by a sense of loneliness and emptiness, it felt so restless and terrified, she couldn't even sit still, even when she turned around Get up.

Two steps away behind her, there is a tall woman standing against the light with an upright and solemn posture.

She didn't know who that person was, but she seemed to want to see that person's face clearly, and wanted to deeply engrave the most subtle outline of the person into her mind, but in this dream, she couldn't speak, nor Dominate your own body, so you can only freeze upright in place.

"Yeah... just like that, raise your chin up a little bit, don't blink."

That voice was soft and gentle, which made her feel familiar and dependent, and even had a kind of... unspeakable sincerity.

She adjusted her demeanor according to the other party's instructions, squinted slightly with focused and devoted eyes, but heard a soft chuckle.

"Great, that's it." The man said, "Xiao Ge, you have studied very well. There will be many people who will love you, many people will not leave you, and many friends will be willing to accompany you."

Before waking up, the last compliment full of love and indulgence still clearly echoed in her ears.

——"Xiao Ge, you will always be my pride."

【Ding. 】

After quickly passing through the room, the hatch door slid, and Yu Ge unfastened the fastening belt that fell off automatically at his waist. Just as he sat up from the console, he heard a warm female voice from above his head.

[Dear host Z□□58, you have completed this round of fast travel tasks on time, and it took a total of 9:52 minutes. Please pay attention to safety when leaving the cabin! 】

[Dear host Z□□58, it has been detected that you have manually adjusted the dosage of drugs during the execution of the mission. It is recommended that you arrange relevant medical examinations as soon as possible. Do you need to provide appointment services? 】

Yu Ge tore off the mask and threw it back into the cabin.

"... 4, turn off the notification sound first, and bring me some coke."

The only response to her was the soft clicking sound when the cabin was automatically disinfected, and 444, as an accompanying system, had already been sent to the data center for formatting processing when the current round of missions was successfully completed in accordance with the regulations.

The young host was slightly taken aback.
