Concave and Convex World: The Wind of Freedom

And when she walked for a while, she met Palos who came to look for her.

"You came out? How did you come out?"

"It's a special situation. Anyway, I'm fine. Where are they?"

"We found a hidden door and forced Sterling to reveal the correct way to open it," Palos said.

"Wait...ah, the boss is in?"

"You know?" Palos raised his eyebrows, "But I gave the order before the boss went in. Let me try to see if I can find the door here. Maybe it can be of some help."

Chen Yun's eyes became strange upon hearing this, "I thought the boss would let you in first."

"...Haha, I disappoint you." Palospi said with a smile.

Shen Yun shrugged, "That ghost told me that. Now I've beaten him half to death and he's recovering in there. He probably won't get better for a while."

Thinking of the male ghost's remarks just now, Shen Yun frowned, "We have to go in to help. Lei Shi... the boss is very likely to be trapped in there."

"What do you say?" Palos asked.

"It seems that Sterling didn't tell you. Entering this door requires a test, and only a determined and righteous person can easily pass through." Shen Yun explained.

Palos suppressed the corners of his mouth, "That would be too... troublesome. We have to rush back as soon as possible."

"Did you just want to say something else?"

"What's the matter~"

……

By the time they arrived at the door, Camille was visibly anxious. He is a person who does not show his emotions easily, but at this moment he was pacing back and forth outside the door because he was worried about Lei Shi.

"Chen Yun." Camille looked at her immediately, "If you can come out from there, is there any way to bring your eldest brother out too?"

"There's nothing I can do about it." Shen Yun told several people what he learned from the male ghost, and they all fell silent.

None of them are good people. Looking at this door, they almost don't want to step in.

"I'm going to find brother." Camille said and was about to go in.

"Are you okay?" Shen Yun asked.

Camille's face was dark.

Although he wanted to go in, he really... No, he knew very well how dark his heart was. If he let himself in instead, the gain would outweigh the loss...

What's more, when he went in, only Shen Yun, Palos, Pelli, and Sterling were lying on the side. These people...he was worried.

"Okay, okay, let me go in." Shen Yun patted his shoulder.

"You..." Camille didn't expect her to say that, and said in a complicated tone, "...are you okay?"

"...better than you!"

After Chen Yun said that, he walked in, leaving Camille and Pape staring at each other.

"Keep an eye on her and knock her out when she wakes up." Camille looked at the ground.

"Camille, do you think... Shen Yun is a little too concerned about Boss Lei Shi?" Palos suddenly asked.

"...You think so?"

"Isn't this something obvious? Look how clingy she is to the boss."

"I didn't see it." Camille said, "A person who often wants to peek at his elder brother in the shower can care less. At most, he is greedy for his body."

"...Huh? Is Shen Yun actually such a person? I misjudged her!" Pelli hugged his head when he heard this, as if the good image he had established towards Shen Yun was shattered a bit.

"Then you've made quite a few mistakes." Palos chuckled, "She often goes to the boss's room to peek at the color of his underwear when he's not around, even though she was caught at the beginning."

"...Is there such a thing?" Camille felt that he still didn't understand Shen Yun well enough.

"Oh~ I seem to have accidentally said something not very good?" Palos smiled and spread his hands, "Camille, I think Shen Yun's thoughts about Boss Lei Shi are a bit dangerous. She is really innocent. Do you care? Maybe...only she knows."

"..." Camille pondered.

"But I think Shen Yun is pretty good." Pelli frowned and thought hard, "She must be caring about the boss if she can stand in front of the boss in that situation! Who would care about his own life or death? Needless to say, ?"

"Haha, if you want to really see through a person, you can't just look at the surface~"

……

Chen Yun walked slowly on the gray floor, making clear footsteps.

"Ah Sneeze!" Chen Yun touched his nose, "Those people outside are not saying bad things about me... By the way, this is... the palace of the Thunder King's royal family?"

While watching, Chen Yun was wary of unknown dangers, "Wow, where is the place where the Thunder Lion grows... look for where he is."

But it's so quiet here.

Shen Yun walked for a while without hearing any sound.

Finally, she stopped.

……found it.

The Thunder Lion... was right in front of her. She saw Lei Shi arching his back and half-kneeling in the middle of the hall, looking like he was in pain. Opposite him, there was a man whose face could not be seen clearly as he was nailed to the throne by an arrow.

"Boss Lei Shi." Shen Yun patted Lei Shi.

no respond.

He was unmoved, as if he hadn't heard at all.

"Did you get trapped..." Shen Yun guessed, "Who is that man? His former relative? He died tragically."

Chen Yun squatted in front of Lei Shi and took off his hand covering his face, wanting to take a look at him.

But he saw the face covered in shadow slowly melting.

The flesh and blood flowed down bit by bit like water drops, revealing clearly visible white bones.

"What the fuck! Brother, stop remembering, get up!" Shen Yun pushed Lei Shi in a hurry and shouted, "Boss Lei Shi! Lei Shi! If you don't get up, I will use your scarf to smear shit on your face!" "

"Ah, ah, idiot Lei Shi! Wake up!!"

Chen Yun did not dare to pull Lei Shi because she was afraid that if she pulled, the skin on Lei Shi's hand would fall off.

So I could only yell from the side, trying to attract his attention.

"..."

In Lei Shi's empty mind, a voice kept ringing.

"You are selfish and treat others as tools. You don't care if they dislike you, but what about you? In fact, you have accomplished nothing. You are being hunted, and you can't even protect your brother around you."

"You're a waste, Thunder Lion."

"..."

This sound rang in his ears for a long time, like ants circling, like nails scraping against the car window, harsh and deep.

At first he would sneer and retaliate, but a steady stream of emotions seemed to pierce his brain. He thought of his uncle and the people who were bullied because of his arrogance.

"You are a sinner. In fact, you can't do anything well and you haven't accomplished anything."

"You have no ideals, but your anger is always based on the pain of others."

"Thunder Lion, are you wrong?"

"..."

He was almost gritting his teeth, as if grinding them to pieces, trying his best to restrain the energy and said, "I...that's right!"

"Your arrogance will one day crush you. You need to let go of your arrogance and everything you are proud of."

"You will drown in your ideals."

"Thunder Lion, what is Thunder Lion?"

"Thunder Lion..." Lei Shi trembled and said word by word, "Thunder Lion... is me. It's my name... Thunder Lion is, my name."

"Thunder Lion is not your name. You are not Thunder Lion."

"A name given by someone else means nothing. It can even destroy your life and destroy you."

"You need to make your choice again."

"Thunder Lion, what is Thunder Lion?"

"..."

Lei Shi is thinking.

But maybe he wasn't thinking. He was shaking, fighting the emotion.

"You long for freedom, and your emotions will drive you to a deeper shore. But will you succeed? You want to succeed, so you think you must succeed, but where does your confidence come from?"

After that, the voice asked and answered itself.

“It comes from the people around you.”

"But you never looked them in the face."

"You want to seek that glimmer of hope and use the help of others. You want revenge, and all your ideals are based on the pain of others."

"Final question - sinner 'Thunder Lion', do you deserve to die?"
