All the little white rabbits adore me

Xie Jiu smiled embarrassingly, suddenly feeling a little helpless.

How can he compete with a little fool as an adult? Isn't this equal to bullying?

In a blink of an eye, he looked at Qi Zelin below him—at this moment, Xie Jiu's hand was propping up on the man's thigh, and the other hand was still in the necessary position.

At this time, Qi Zelin's upper skirt was slightly exposed, revealing his delicate collarbone, and his clothes were already stained with muddy water.

Xie Jiu's whole body was pressed against him, and the two bodies were tightly pressed together at this moment, without a single gap.

Xie Jiu's face also turned red... At the same time, he saw sharply-eyed big black characters on the front of the cardboard in the distance, on which someone had written six strokes with great care. Character.

"I want to protect my brother."

……

When he was about to light the fireworks, little friend Qi didn't even turn his head to pay attention to him.

The two sat on the slightly cool grass, Xie Jiu tried to adjust the atmosphere at first, but when no one spoke to him, he closed his mouth.

He knew in his heart that he was wronged, and wanted to make an apology, but he really couldn't hold back his face.

So I had to be silent.

When the beautiful fireworks rose from the black silk-like sky, Xie Jiu couldn't help but stare at the fireworks above his head seriously. It seemed that he hadn't seen fireworks so close for a long time.

He couldn't help but think of the fireworks he saw on the dirty street before.

It was the fireworks lit by the people in the mall, but they rose in the same sky.At that time, people on the commercial street will raise their heads at the same time, like pigeons staring blankly.

Wait until the fireworks bloom in the sky.People had happy smiles on their faces, and they held each other's hands tightly.

It seems that at that moment, everyone who looks at the sky can be connected together through the fireworks.

Fireworks seemed to symbolize many things at that time: overlapping moods, joy that can be shared with companions...

At that time, Xie Jiu also looked up at the fireworks in the rental house.

Although they are the same fireworks, when the fireworks in the commercial street bloom in the sky of the dirty street, the feeling is completely changed.

Xie Jiu only glanced at the sky then quickly lowered his head, the wind blowing in made people shiver.He closed the window tightly, and put out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray full of cigarette butts.

He thought he had been waiting for someone who could watch the fireworks with him.

And now Qi Zelin was sitting beside him, his chin was still stained with muddy water when he looked up at the sky.

Xie Jiu gently wiped off the mud with his fingers.

Just like what Qi Zelin did to him many years ago.

Qi Zelin turned his head and shouted something to Xie Jiu.

The fireworks continued to explode, followed by people's laughter.

Xie Jiu didn't hear clearly, and frowned.

"What did you say!"

Qi Zelin gently took Xie Jiu's hand and put it on his lips, saying word by word.

"like you."

Xie Jiu felt as if a torrent of enthusiasm washed over his heart at this moment, and he closed his mouth tightly.

Of course Qi Zelin would like him.

He remembered that the former Qi Zelin had always liked him very much, and he also liked Qi Zelin very much back then.

Before the man became stupid, he once personally taught him to make a bowl of spinach egg noodles. In the hot summer, even if he was sweating profusely from the heat, Xie Jiu would stubbornly make egg noodles for the man over and over again when he was a child.

The two drank the sour noodle soup at the table, and then smiled at each other.

People on the dirty street have to grab mud when they fall, but in the days when a man is by his side, he can turn bitterness into sweetness.

Xie Jiu thought that he might never ask why Qi Zelin, the heir to the Qi family who was a high-ranking and powerful person, would appear in Dirty Streets when he was a child, and why he had to follow him.

Then why did you leave without saying goodbye...

Xie Jiu repeated it to himself over and over in his heart.

Everything is just a task now.It is a condition for Qi Zelin to continue to live.

If necessary, he will take the initiative to be that heinous person.

Finally Xie Jiu turned his head with a smile, he knew Qi Zelin would hear this sentence.

"I like you too."

***

Xie Jiu often felt that after the spring festival, the relationship between himself and Qi Zelin had changed a little, but he couldn't say exactly what it was.

And Qi Zelin liked being by his side more and more, like a little tail that couldn't be shaken off.

It was obviously a huge double bed, but every night when she slept, she had to stick to Xie Jiu's arms.

And Xie Jiu followed him slowly.

When Xie Jiu wakes up every morning and sees Qi Zelin in his arms like a pillow, he can already let go of his hands without blushing and heartbeat, and then goes to wash up sleepily.

Until one day a week after the spring festival, Xie Jiu saw in the mirror that two black petals had bloomed on his neck, and it was still painless.

Judging from the shape of the flower on the neck, it is a Guanshan cherry with five petals.

The black petals are small and beautiful, and it looks more like a chic tattoo when it stops on the neck.

Xie Jiu knew that before the remaining three-petal flowers bloomed, he had to complete what he had promised Neil.

As a condition for Qi Zelin to survive...he must devote all his heart to Qi Zelin, and then push him into eternal doom.

Sometimes Xie Jiu would think sarcastically that this is simply a strategy game designed by an unscrupulous manufacturer, requiring players to carefully design step by step in the early stage, but in the end overthrow everything and force them into badending.

What happened in the meantime was lackluster.

But it is worth noting that after Xie Jiu saw the white photo frame on the desk that time, he never saw that photo frame again.

It's like it's never been there...

And the second thing is that Neil once explicitly said to let him go to the archives, which seems to mean something.

Xie Jiu knew that Neil was someone who never talked nonsense.

The two things are not big, but they are always stuck in Xie Jiu's heart like small needles.Let him think about it from time to time in his daily life.

But when Xie Jiu couldn't find the message left by the fat man who had been in his trouser pocket, he began to feel that something was wrong.

He thought he forgot to check the pants before throwing them in the washing machine, so he washed the note with the pants.

But when he took out the trousers, the inside was clean, and it didn't look like there were confetti at all.

Xie Jiu searched around and found all possible hiding places in the villa.

He got nothing.

And in this villa with a high degree of secrecy, it is impossible for a third person to touch the note in that pair of pants.

Xie Jiu felt that there was some connection between these three things.And the archives mentioned by Neil, as an important place, seem to be able to connect all things faintly.

But he couldn't ask Qi Zelin directly.

With Xie Jiu's unremitting efforts, he finally blocked Yan You in the canteen of the military building at noon one day.

……

At midnight, Xie Jiu, who successfully sneaked into the archives with the security duty list given by Yan You, felt complicated.

Standing in front of that door, he even had the urge to run away quickly.

Yan You gave him three things in total.

A minute-specific duty list, a key and a password-free card for direct access to the archives.

In the cafeteria, Yan You suddenly changed his face when he heard Xie Jiu's intention.He hurriedly took Xie Jiu to a corner where the surveillance cameras couldn't catch him.

"Everything you need to know is in the archives...and this is the ID card to enter the archives, and the key to the only safe inside."

Xie Jiu couldn't believe that things went so smoothly, Yan You's attitude naturally seemed to have been waiting for him.

Xie Jiu gratefully took the three items from Yan You, only to hear Yan You continue with a wry smile.

"Consultant, I really hit it off with you... It's better to say that I hit it off. But if 'he' knows that I have done these unnecessary things, he will definitely kill me..."

"The next thing I want to say is my...my personal thoughts, and this time it is purely my own behavior and has nothing to do with anyone. I know you want to ask about me, but I can't tell you now. But I I met you a long time ago, but you didn't know me then."

Yan You approached slowly, while looking at Xie Jiu without blinking.

"Consultant, you are born with a magical power to attract people's hearts..."

Immediately afterwards, Xie Jiu felt a light touch on his mouth.

——It was Yan You, the kiss was over when Xie Jiu realized it.

However, Xie Jiu's nose was always lingering with the strong and strange fragrance of the man, and with it came a particularly familiar feeling.

It seemed that someone had done the same thing to him a long time ago, but his lips were as red as blood.

"Finally here... I've wanted to do this for a long time."

Xie Jiu came to his senses, he had sneaked into the reference room now, without alarming anyone.

A huge moon hung in the sky outside, and it was already 12:30 in the morning.

Kid Qi should already be lying on the bed and sleeping obediently...

The library is very large, and the dark yellow documents are placed on the display shelves in an orderly manner. It is obvious that there are special people taking care of them on weekdays.

But Xie Jiu looked straight at the gray safe.

The safe was covered with dust, out of place with the entire clean archives, as if it hadn't been wiped for a long time.

Xie Jiu opened the lock with the key, but there were only a few thin stacks of documents in the safe.

Xie Jiu simply took out all of them in one go.

The first document was the field plan of the military department ten years ago, and a thin piece of paper has already begun to become brittle.

Xie Jiu gently opened the second one.

"The Qi family."

Two bold and bold characters appeared on the upper right corner of the document, Xie Jiu's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously pulled out the piece of paper.

The document recorded in detail the past history of the Qi family, the head of the four major families, with obscure words and complicated and lengthy sentences, but there was nothing worth noting in it.

Xie Jiu flipped through it again, and it was basically the drafting documents when the military department made important plans.

For some reason, Xie Jiu felt relieved.

He put the files on the floor back into the safe, and after packing them up, he couldn't help complaining that he came to the archives late at night without sleeping, and all he found were innocuous things.

Perhaps Neil's previous words were provoking the relationship between him and Qi Zelin.

And Yan You's expression at noon was probably too nervous...

Xie Jiu stretched lightly in the archives, and then carefully pushed the door of the safe to go back to sleep, when he suddenly found a piece of paper on the ground, which probably fell out of the pile of documents before ,

Xie Jiu glanced at the paper indifferently, and his hand in mid-air stopped suddenly.

Xie family...

The name of the woman in that photo frame is Xie Ru, and the document in front of her happens to be related to Xie's family.

He continued to read subconsciously, but the contents of the next document made people shudder.

The wording in the document is veiled, and some places are deliberately vague.

The content roughly means that the Xie family in the high-ranking Federation was a famous family a long time ago. At that time, the head of the Xie family was named Xie Ru, and everyone called Mrs. Xie Ru. good.

But in a devastating blow, the Xie family and the Qi family and other families are facing a huge crisis, and the Qi family successfully tides over the difficulties relying on the Xie family, but the Xie family is destroyed.

Dozens of members of Xie's family were all killed in one night, and the death conditions were extremely tragic.There were rumors that it was the hands of the Qi family.Since the murderer was never arrested, the extermination of Xie's family has since become an unsolved case.

Since then, the Qi family has become more and more powerful, while there have been fewer and fewer reports about the Xie family.

Until the successor of the Qi family returned from studying abroad in a certain year and formally confirmed the identity of the person in charge of the military department, the Xie family was no longer mentioned by anyone.

Next, the document began to mainly describe Mrs. Xie Ru's life. Xie Jiu glanced at ten lines, but was attracted by a certain line of words.

Mrs. Xie Ru had a son under her knees. After the murder case, the whereabouts of the son's body was unknown, and it was suspected that she survived.

Before leaving the country, the heir of the Qi family sent people to search for the only survivor of the Xie family, but the search turned up nothing afterward.

There is also a photo of a ship named Yihe docked in the port on the side page of the document.

The small mark next to it impressively stated that this was a warship designed by Mrs. Xie Ru for the military department.

Xie Jiu couldn't help pinching the piece of paper, he remembered this battleship.

He once used this battleship with a 460mm main gun to repel the North Sea giant monster.The battleship is advancing straight forward like an indestructible blade on the sea, and everything that stands in his way will be flattened.

When he fell into the abyss-like seabed, it turned out that it was this giant steel beast named Yihe that turned the tide and saved him.

He also remembers what he saw when he was dying.

The woman's hand gently stroked his forehead, and gently covered him with the quilt.

The night was windy, and the woman was sitting by the bed and telling him stories in a slightly hoarse voice.

The woman's face...is clearly the face of Mrs. Xie Ru in her youth in the photo.

Xie Jiu was still complaining about which mother would use the obscure battleship setting collection as a bedtime story for her children.

But when he was on the verge of shock in the sea, it was also this battleship guarding the front with its powerful steel body.Every cannon and every piece of steel strictly implements the designer's ideas, making her children invincible ever since!

Xie Jiu once thought that all these things he experienced were accidental disasters.

He was just chosen by chance by the executive team.Dawson, the doctor in the Exiled Land, accidentally helped him, and Qi Zelin accidentally began to favor him.Those people in the Federation accidentally realized that his life was the highest priority, and the task was the second.

But now it was as if someone had slapped him hard with this stack of documents, waking him up from his illusory dream.

"Silly hat, how can there be so many coincidences!"

At this moment, all the previously overlooked details and clues are connected together, and then...directly pointing to the cruel truth.

So the woman on it is his...

Xie Jiu's fingers lightly outlined the line of the woman's face in the void, and when he was about to touch the slightly curled edge of the photo, he withdrew his hand like an electric shock.

And his eyes were fixed on the woman's smile, as if he wanted to engrave every detail of the photo in his heart.

Every second he looked at it, he felt the taste of rust in his mouth getting stronger...

Xie Jiu swallowed hard his bloody spittle, and stubbornly continued to look at the photo.

Finally he realized that no matter how much he stared at the photo.None of the women in the photos would caress his forehead as they did in the dream, nor would they tell him stories with gentle voices.

Not even her smile would move.

Finally, Xie Jiu lowered his head and slowly buried it between his knees.

Photos of Mrs. Xie Ru were scattered on the ground.

A ray of moonlight, as cold as splintered silver, entered the room and shone on the face of Mrs. Xierou's photo.It complements her black hair like algae, and her smile is as gentle as water.

That bright smile has been frozen in the photo forever...

***

By the time Xie Jiu came out of the archives, almost three hours had passed.

He was sweating profusely, and when he came out, he started to shiver when the cold wind blew.

Because country A tore up the treaty without authorization, and then issued a declaration of war forcefully.For a time, the people in the federal jurisdiction were panicked and everyone was in danger, and all kinds of shops closed early.

In the past, the neon lights flickered frequently, and the bustling streets were empty at this moment.

Xie Jiu went to the only remaining convenience store with lights on to buy half a dozen beers and two packs of cigarettes, and went out with his back to the clerk's curious face. He walked on the street and pried open a can of beer.

Behind him, an ominous black figure followed closely.

There is a pair of black wings behind that figure, shaped like a demon crawling out of hell.

"Are you surprised? A dozen or so members of the Xie family died overnight. You are the only surviving boy in the Xie family. Mrs. Xie Ru in the photo is your biological mother, but she was involved in the massacre." Killed by Qi Zelin's family."

"...I said you would hate him."

The man sneered and mocked behind Xie Jiu.

"……do not talk."

"The year Qi Zelin went abroad and returned to China in the document happened to be the same as the time when he was with you. At that time, he was able to participate in the family's decision-making, and he could even lead the decision-making. It is equivalent to killing...your mother with his own hands. "

Xie Jiu pursed his lips tightly and kept walking.

"He was by your side just to make sure that the only surviving son of the Xie family didn't find anything. He didn't find out that his mother had been killed, nor that the person in front of him was the murderer. In the end, he fell in love with the prime minister who was the culprit."

The man paused, and seemed to bend the corner of his mouth silently.

"He must be deeply satisfied with that."

"Shut up." Xie Jiu said coldly.

"Perhaps his current stupidity is just pretending. He sensed your ability, so he chose to put the dangerous factor around him... You should kill him without hesitation when you go back."

Xie Jiu stopped in his tracks. He crushed the can with his fingers, and the liquor inside flowed down the street.

"Neil, I said shut up. Or do you want me to bang your head like that wild dog you have?"

The atmosphere condensed for a few seconds.

Then Xie Jiu was pinched around the neck by a pair of cold hands, and his breath was suffocated.

"Is it necessary for me to let you recognize your position?"
