you are deep in the stars

The bell of the municipal square was faintly heard in the distance, and it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

While heating milk in the kitchen, Liu Chunchun complained to Bai Xi on the other end of the phone: "Why do you only think of me now... I'm fine now... No, no, no, he didn't domesticate me, I made him cry... What bragging? I really didn't brag."

"Then do you still want me to come?" Bai Xi asked.

"Don't do it." Liu Chunchun tried his best to keep his voice down, like an underground party leader.He hung up the phone, poured warm milk into the cup, and added a little sugar to make it more sweet.

Wang Yuanchen's mood has returned to calm at this time, and he is crossing his legs and leaning on the sofa in the bedroom, playing mobile games bored—he doesn't want to face or admit the fragile side of his heart, so he uses more arrogant and indifferent To cover it up, the light in the bedroom is colder white than the moon, which makes him look quiet and cold, like a piece of ice that cannot move or smile.

Liu Chunchun put the milk cup on the small coffee table.

"Take it away." Wang Yuanchen looked at the phone screen and said coldly.

"...Then you go to bed early." Liu Chunchun didn't want to make him angry at this time, so he agreed tactfully, turned around and wanted to leave silently, but Wang Yuanchen had already dropped the phone impatiently, stood up by himself, two long When the legs were removed from the coffee table, the water glass was swept off without any accident. Buzz Lightyear knocked off the handle on the foot of the coffee table, and the milk rushed across the carpet, leaving a large ugly dark mark.

Wang Yuanchen didn't pay attention to all this, he went straight into the bathroom and turned on the shower to the maximum.The rushing hot water washes over the ground, splashing a cloud of hot air, which quickly blurs the person in the mirror—at least it will not be so obvious that the distress is no longer so obvious. The deep memory, the unwilling to touch, is like Black vines generally climbed to the bones and nerves, and then with sharp thorns, every place was bloodied and riddled with holes.

He clenched his fists so that his entire arm was covered with horrible veins, and when the anxiety subsided and he was finally able to walk out of the bathroom, the floor of the bedroom had been tidied up, and the wet carpet was laid on it. Next to the balcony railing.The room was very quiet, and the lights in the corridor were also dimmed. Liu Chunchun seemed to have returned to his own bedroom, but the Christmas gift with a beautiful ribbon was not taken away, and he was still alone on the dining table. Very poor.

Wang Yuanchen lay on the bed with his arms under his head, looked at the bright lights on the ceiling, and listened to the time passing by his ears, one second, one minute, one hour, three hours.

His sense of hearing is so developed that it can even be called a supernatural ability, especially in this kind of quiet late night, it is so sensitive that it can be called radar, so that all the small sounds coming from the guest bedroom, At this moment, everything fell into his ears clearly.

Wrapped in a blanket, Liu Chunchun is sitting on the carpet and focusing on scrolling the screen of his mobile phone. His bedroom is completely different from the master bedroom in two styles. The lights have been replaced with warm colors, the sheets are orange, and there are two bears on it. It was a gift of chocolate biscuits when he went to the supermarket with Wang Yuanchen a few days ago.

At that time, Mr. Wang had a good temper. He would queue up to weigh apples, pick onions, buy ice cream, and help carry shopping bags.

Thinking of this, Liu Chunchun sighed deeply again.

Wang Yuanchen, who had been lingering outside the door, finally couldn't help it. He strode forward and pushed open the bedroom door.

Liu Chunchun turned around in surprise: "Is there something wrong?"

Wang Yuanchen was carrying a gift, and stood in front of him like a god.

Liu Chunchun: "..."

Liu Chunchun pointed to the wall clock on the wall: "It's almost one o'clock."

Of course Wang Yuanchen didn't care what time it was, but sat beside him and asked blankly, "Are you angry?"

Liu Chunchun shook his head.

Wang Yuanchen frowned: "I allow you to be angry."

It was the first time in his life that he met such a conceited, arrogant, bad-tempered and domineering roommate. Liu Chunchun was deeply dumbfounded, but he was really not angry. He just said, "I want to sleep."

Wang Yuanchen handed the gift to him.

Liu Chunchun didn't intend to take it.

The atmosphere became awkward again. Seeing his flickering but unwilling to look at his gaze, Wang Yuanchen took the gift back and asked casually, "Do you want to know about my childhood?"

Liu Chunchun was surprised: "Huh?"

Wang Yuanchen took off his T-shirt, revealing a strong and graceful upper body - but Liu Chunchun has drawn it countless times, so he doesn't think there is anything special about it.Until Wang Yuanchen turned his back to him, for the first time in his life, he took the initiative to show those intertwined ugly scars to others.

Liu Chunchun was surprised and said, "This..."

"This is my childhood." Wang Yuanchen replied.

More than ten years ago, all the little friends envied him, envied that he could be adopted by a famous rich man, and changed from a helpless orphan to a well-fed young master overnight.And at the beginning, he was indeed happy and apprehensive, but this kind of joy didn't last long. Only three months later, he was taken to the underground warehouse on his birthday, and he witnessed those distortions with his own eyes. And cruel experiment.

"The glass is so thick that I can't actually hear any screams, but I can't forget their expressions." Wang Yuanchen said, "And the man who adopted me stood outside the laboratory with me in his arms, like visiting a zoo." It’s the same, walking through all the rooms one by one, and making introductions while talking and laughing.”

Those cruel images distorted the world, distorted everyone's faces, and distorted Wang Yuanchen's internal organs.That night, he squatted in the bathroom and vomited bile back, turned the world upside down, and then had a high fever for three days, but he still couldn't escape what happened on the fourth day——Shi Dalong took him to the laboratory again, and He took his thin and immature hand and pressed it on the chest of a dying superhuman.

Looking at the other party's muddy and blood-red eyes, the young Wang Yuanchen was almost terrified. He instinctively wanted to withdraw his hand, but instead released a weightless force, like a sap, and quickly snatched it away. The opponent's last breath.

"Good job, baby." Shi Dalong hugged him and walked on the promenade, complimenting him like a true loving father, "Believe me, in time, you will be one of the most powerful supernatural beings on this planet." one."

Wang Yuanchen was trembling all over, and the lingering spasm in his palm and the sudden stop of the heartbeat of the other party almost became the beginning of all his future nightmares.

And the darkness is much more than that.

Facing this immature, beautiful and pale "brother" who was as indifferent as a snow doll, Shi Tian did not hide his deformity habit at all. He was obsessed with this fragile and powerful existence, not only because of his abilities, but also There's more, dirty, grown-man fun.

"As long as Shi Dalong is not around, he will come to my bedroom." Wang Yuanchen said, "But I have learned to scream, so every time less than half a minute, a woman will rush over."

That is Shi Dalong's wife, Shi Tian's mother, a violent and cruel supernatural being. She has no job, low self-esteem and suspicion. She fears her husband, spoils her son, and hates this little boy who appeared out of thin air. It was even guessed that this was her husband's illegitimate child.

"Although it was Shi Tian's fault every time, she hit me every time, with a belt and a steel ruler, and the worst one was a bench." When he said this, Wang Yuanchen paused for a moment before continuing, "At the beginning, I thought I was going to die, but then I realized that I wouldn't die, and that man adopted me because I wouldn't die." The extraordinary resilience is even comparable to the transformed Han Zhuo, and he was born.

"When I grow up, I will run away from that house." Wang Yuanchen looked at him, "How is it, is it completely different from your childhood?"

"..." Liu Chunchun didn't know what to say. Shock, distress, sympathy, and the helplessness and fear of suddenly touching the other side of the world blocked all his words in his throat.

"I'm really in a bad mood tonight, but I shouldn't take it out on you." Wang Yuanchen asked, "Are you still angry?"

Liu Chunchun shook his head.

Wang Yuanchen smiled, and handed over the beautiful box again: "Then, Merry Christmas."

"Thank you." Liu Chunchun held it in his hand, "Should I open it now?"

Wang Yuanchen replied: "Whatever."

Liu Chunchun pulled off the ribbon, and inside was a basketball, signed by an NBA superstar.

So in fact, Mr. Wang is not very careless, at least when he passed the living room with a teacup countless times and sneered at the football game on TV, he still remembered Liu Chunchun's favorite football star by the way.

"This is the coolest Christmas present I've ever received." Liu Chunchun really liked it terribly.

"Then do you want to go out next weekend? It's a good and exciting place that you didn't go to last time." Wang Yuanchen asked again.Originally, he just wanted to have a symbolic democratization, and he didn't expect that the other party would refuse, but Liu Chunchun actually shook his head and explained: "I'm going home next weekend, and I just booked a plane ticket."

"You want to go home after you quarreled with me?" Mr. Wang was very displeased when he heard the words, and grabbed his cheek hard, "Who do you want to complain to?"

"What's the complaint?" Liu Chunchun mumbled, his cheeks deformed by him, "It's my grandpa's birthday. He's [-]th birthday this year, and the whole family has to go there."

Oh, is it so?Wang Yuanchen let go of his hand: "When will you come back?"

"Tuesday, I plan to take two and a half days off and fly on Friday afternoon." Liu Chunchun said.

Wang Yuanchen nodded: "Which flight? Book a ticket for me too."

Liu Chunchun was quite surprised this time: "You?"

"I'm your bodyguard." Wang Yuanchen reminded.

Liu Chunchun: "..."

Wang Yuanchen's eyes darkened: "You still hesitate?"

Liu Chunchun's back felt cold, and he immediately grabbed his phone and opened the APP: "How come, you can sleep in the same bedroom with me."

Mr. Wang considered it for a while, then reluctantly nodded: "Yes."

"But you have to put your temper back." Liu Chunchun reminded again, "There are many seven and eight aunts in my family, and they are nagging. They especially like to introduce people to people and check their household registration. You can't scold people."

Wang Yuanchen: "..."

"And my grandfather is a rigid old intellectual. At that time, you can't wear earrings, rings, and tattoos on your wrists." Liu Chunchun said, taking half a step back to keep safe. , but this time it's his birthday, you have to cooperate, otherwise he will definitely think that I'm living with a rascal."

Wang Yuanchen brought him in front of him, and asked preoccupiedly, "Then what compensation can I get?"

"I'll steam steamed buns for you when I come back." Liu Chunchun tempted, "You haven't eaten stuffed pork, cabbage and dried shrimps."

Mr. Wang thought about it, nodded: "deal."

……

And in the apartment on Xinghai Road, Bai Xi was also wrapped in a quilt, anxious and insomnia, his mind was full of Liang Yi and Niu Daxiang.Being able to face Han Zhuo frankly, revealing his true identity generously, knowing the hidden teleportation skills like the back of the hand, and even having the ability to restore Zhou Jing's bones to health, the mysterious director of the Beidou Research Institute sounds It really doesn't look like an ordinary person, but the more unusual, the higher the risk factor seems to be.

Han Zhuo hugged him from behind.

Bai Xi was taken aback, turned around and apologized, "Did I wake you up?"

"Still thinking about tomorrow?" Han Zhuo asked.

Bai Xi nodded, and said again: "Are you really going? We don't even know whether the other party is an enemy or a friend."

"Worried that I will be detained in that hospital?" Han Zhuo smiled.

Just hearing his words, Bai Xi felt his back go numb - because this possibility does exist, it is a human scientific research institution, and it will not be afraid of supernatural beings, let alone the underground warehouse and Shi Tian idea.

He immediately hugged Han Zhuo tightly: "I won't let you go."

"But he's the one we've always wanted to get close to." Han Zhuo patted him on the back, "I finally got the chance, but now you want to run away?"

"It's not the same." Bai Xi said, "No matter what the plan is, I have to ensure your absolute safety first." And under the current situation of not knowing the truth, he even felt that as long as Han Zhuoyi appeared in the other party's territory, Immediately, the escape route will be cut off by the heaven and earth net, and they will be twisted and sent to the laboratory again.

"That hospital must have conducted experiments on supernatural beings, otherwise Liang Yi would not be able to find a way to treat Zhou Jing based on the data sent from the underground warehouse to the research institute." Bai Xi continued, "Even if we want to talk, we must Change to a relatively safe place, why go to his site?"

Han Zhuo replied: "Because I want to see Zhou Jing."

"I want to visit her too, but I can't do it now." Bai Xi insisted.

Feeling that he is being hugged tighter and tighter, like a child trying to defend his teacher Steve, Han Zhuo is a little funny, but more warm and...happiness, this seems to be a very old-fashioned word, At the same time, it is also an extremely precious and luxurious enjoyment.

"Then where do you think is suitable?" Han Zhuo asked him patiently, "It must be absolutely private."

Bai Xi said without hesitation, "Hotel." Any one, any one, is absolutely quiet and private, and it's not too late to visit Zhou Jing after confirming the other party's purpose and thoughts.

"Okay." Han Zhuo smiled, "I'll listen to you."

"Really?" Bai Xi raised her head.

"Of course it's true," Han Zhuo pinched his nose, "Why would I lie to you about this kind of thing?"

"Not just this kind of thing, but anything, you are not allowed to lie to me." Bai Xi corrected.

Mr. Han nodded, raised his hand and said, "I promise."

Of course, this is not such a powerful oath, at least Bai Xi will not believe it, and Han Zhuo himself does not believe it. The so-called love without concealment probably only exists in the imagination of fairy tales—but as long as tonight's incident Sure, for Bai Xi, all kinds of things can be ignored for the time being.

Han Zhuo wrapped him in his arms, bowed his head and kissed him again and again.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Liang Yi looked at the short message on the phone, smiled and shook his head: "It seems that Han Zhuo is still wary of us, and he proposed to change the time and place of the meeting, huh? This is a hotel."

"But we didn't think about what to do to him." Zhou Yong sat opposite him.

"This is normal. After all, we have never dealt with Han Zhuo before." Liang Yi put down his coffee cup and taught, "Sincerity needs to be gradually reflected in actions and words, and we are quite well prepared. So I believe that sooner or later, this powerful supernatural being will be willing to open his heart to us."
