under one roof

34

The small apartment that Rong Pu rents is just across the street from the company. The community is very new, the greenery is also very good, and it looks expensive.In the middle of the night, there wasn't even a stray cat passing by, only the dim and lonely street lamp. Yu Chen took a deep breath and said with emotion: "Brother, you are so rich."

"I'm so busy that I'm dying. If I earn less, wouldn't it be very unbalanced?"

"But the income is not directly proportional to the busyness."

"So this story tells us..." Rong Pu took a deep breath, and then looked at Yu Chen, "People should strive to improve themselves so that their busyness is directly proportional to their income. There is no harm in reading more books."

Yu Chen said: "But I have studied hard."

Rong Pu smiled and said, "Yes, yes, you study well, otherwise you wouldn't have skipped a grade all the way."

"What about the others?" Yu Chen looked at Rong Pu wagging his tail like a puppy hoping to be appreciated by his master.Rong Pu probably knew what Yu Chen meant, so he deliberately kept his tone and didn't say anything, but his eyes were curled up, with a wicked gentleness.

Seeing that there was no result, Yu Chen withdrew his gaze.When he was sleepy, he looked even more downcast.The two walked for a while, and Rong Pu suddenly said: "You are very..." He lengthened the ending, and when the syllable disappeared completely, he added the following content, "Very cute."

"Oh."

The two were silent for a while, Rong Pu couldn't hold it back at first, he laughed "puchi" and asked, "What's the matter, are you unhappy?"

"No."

Rong Pu said: "I think you are very good. You are young, energetic, and your enthusiasm has not been completely consumed by work...how wonderful."

Yu Chen said: "What about you? How do you say you are so old-fashioned? Don't you like your current job?"

"Half and half." Rong Pu answered vaguely.

After a while, he arrived at Rong Pu's house.This is Yu Chen's first visit to Rong Pu's house, looking around curiously.The house is not big, a very simple one-bedroom, but it is clean and tidy, and more deeply, it is not very popular.Rong Pu is very busy, and he only goes home to sleep, but here only needs to meet this demand, and there is no need for more functions.

"Are you sleepy?" Rong Pu turned on the light, Yu Chen blocked his eyes sharply, "Hurry up and go to the back room to sleep."

"What about you?"

"I'll take a shower first." Rong Pu took a change of clothes from the bedroom, "My bed is not that big, so don't sleep in and lie in the middle and take up all the space."

"understood."

As soon as Rong Pu closed the bathroom door, the room fell silent.Yu Chen took off his clothes and got into the bed, the early summer night breeze caressed Yu Chen's body like a lover's hand, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep after closing his eyes.Before he lost consciousness, he followed Rong Pu's words carefully, and pressed his body straight on the side of the bed, leaving a large space for Rong Pu.As a result, after Rong Pu entered the bedroom, he saw Yu Chen sleeping on the side, and could flip it down with a slight movement.

He sighed helplessly, and gently fished Yu Chen back.Yu Chen was obedient even when he fell asleep, and turned over following his movements.He fell asleep, and there were marks on one side of his face, Rong Pu stretched out his hand to poke, Yu Chen's face was pressed down a little, and then bounced back with the finger's departure.Yu Chen felt itchy in his sleep, he waved it like a mosquito, accidentally caught Rong Pu's hand, held it with peace of mind, held it on his chest and continued to sleep.

"Stupid." Rong Pu murmured.He stared at Yu Chen for a while, his fingers were held by him, some strange thoughts flashed in his heart, he lowered his head, and kissed Yu Chen's forehead slowly.

This time Yu Chen didn't move anymore.

The life of engineers is busy and boring. There are fixed working hours in the morning, but maybe not in the evening.Faced with all kinds of monitors all day long, and have to move to work from time to time, it is easy to generate negative emotions in such a high-pressure situation.However, the company's treatment of these main engineers is also very good, and all logistics support can keep up. During the concentrated development, the engineers will be checked regularly.

Yu Chen didn't like physical examination at all, he couldn't eat and had to cut off water.He also didn't want to face the test results, who has every problem with him these days?It's okay if you don't know, but if you know it, you will be worried, but life will continue as usual?Why bother?

He came out of the hospital and ate something before returning to the company. Today's schedule has not been completed yet, so he doesn't want to sleep in the office again.Maybe it's because the atmosphere is a bit slack, the colleagues in the office have become lazy, after Yu Chen passionately coded a piece of code in front of the computer, he saw Rong Pu rushing in, taking a stack of documents and then rushing out.Yu Chen looked at it, feeling curious.

In fact, Rong Pu didn't come back until after get off work, Yu Chen didn't want to wait any longer, so he went back directly.

In the next period of time, Yu Chen felt that Rong Pu fell into an extremely busy state. He didn't spend much time in the office, and often went to the laboratory, or Zhang Jun. Yu Chen didn't know that the two of them What are you talking about.Until the end of the primary P4 stage of NO.1, Yu Chen felt that something was wrong with Rong Pu.

That day he heard that Rong Pu had a big fight with Zhang Jun in Zhang Jun's office, and someone next to him was still persuading him. After listening for a long time, Yu Chen realized that it was Zhao Qianli, the vice president.He didn't know how these three people could get together, now that he was off work, and there were people coming and going outside, Yu Chen was afraid of being discovered by the wall, so he left in a hurry after listening to a few words.

Later, Rong Pu began to ask for leave frequently.After what happened, Yu Chen wondered if Rong Pu was going to change jobs.After two weeks of sustaining, Rong Pu began to return to normal work and overtime, as if the strange life before had never happened.Yu Chen asked Rong Pu what happened recently, but Rong Pu answered tiredly that it was nothing.

Obviously it was Rong Pu who was tossing, but Yu Chen felt that he was even more tired.His mood will change with Rong Pu's every move, like being hung on a thin steel cable, he can't help him no matter what.He typed the last letter dejectedly, his mind was in a mess, looking at the sunset outside, he suddenly didn't want to work hard anymore.

Yu Chen looked at Rong Pu's empty seat, sighed, packed his things and prepared to go home.He came out of the corridor and passed the laboratory, only to find that Rong Pu was there.

"Brother?" Yu Chen knocked on the door, "Are you here on the big Sunday?"

"Aren't you here too?" Rong Pu seemed in a good mood, "Go home after working overtime?"

"Yeah." Yu Chen didn't leave, but walked into the laboratory instead, "What are you busy with?"

"new project."

"Have you got a new job?" Yu Chen asked, "I thought you were going to write for a while. I was tired from seeing you before."

"Is there?" Rong Pu recalled it carefully, and said, "It seems to be quite busy, but for the things I like, I feel very happy no matter how busy I am."

Yu Chen felt that today's Rong Pu was a little different, he thought about it for a while, and thought that maybe he was thinking too much, and planned to change the topic to a lighter one: "So do you want to continue now?"

"No, I'm waiting for the time."

Yu Chen thought that Rong Pu was waiting for the process, and said, "Waiting alone should be boring, why don't I accompany you?"

"Sure." Rong Pu said, "Since we have nothing to do, why don't we watch something. Let me check my documents..." He turned on his computer, "Ah, it's a pity, there's only one old movie, should I watch it? "

"what?"

"Casablanca."

"What is that?" Yu Chen asked.

"Don't you know?" Yu Chen said, "It's a movie from World War II."

"Huh? A war movie."

"No." Rong Pu shook his head and smiled, "It's a romance movie."

Yu Chen said: "Is it really good for the two of us to watch romance movies?"

Rong Pu said: "What's the point? It's boring anyway, it's better than staring at each other." He clicked on the player while talking, and old black and white movies creaked on the screen.Yu Chen lay on the table, staring straight at the screen, and said, "I always thought that Casablanca was a small city in Europe, but I didn't expect it to be in Africa."

"That's right, there is another name for this film, "North African Spy". Isn't this familiar?" Rong Pu said, "Casablanca was a transit point between Europe and the United States during World War II."

"Wars are trouble."

"No way, in wartime, it's fine if you can escape for your life. There are always many things that can't be helped in special times, such as Rick and Ilsa. He loves her so much, didn't he let Ilsa and her husband leave together in the end? In the torrent of the times, sometimes love does not need to stay together, this is probably a pity."

"Why don't you avoid it when you know it's regrettable?"

"Because there are more important things to do, ideals, freedom, justice... Which one is not nobler than love?" Rong Pu said, "But it is indeed a good city, maybe thanks to the movie, I always think it is poetic and picturesque , including the later princess of Morocco."

Yu Chen asked: "Have you been there?"

"No." Rong Pu said, "I'm busy...how can I have time?"

"Then can we go together?" Yu Chen said naturally.

Rong Pu asked back, "Why?"

"because I……"

Huge humming sounded in the ears, and the pressure was so strong that it seemed to be able to crush people.A bone-piercing chill spread through every nerve ending, suffocating. With a sound of "哗啦", a group of black shadows emerged from the water, and the sea water was immediately pushed twice.

Rong Pu reached out and touched the floating broken deck, and he carefully pushed Yu Chen onto it.Yu Chen choked on the water, coughed uncontrollably, and the water in his abdomen vomited out of his mouth.His body froze in the sea, he couldn't even move his fingers, and he lay on his side on the deck and twitched slightly.

"Cough cough...cough..." Yu Chen was still coughing, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes.The rain, sea water, and tears mixed together, and nothing could be distinguished, only the outline in front of my eyes became clearer and clearer.He bit his lip and said tremblingly, "Master...Senior brother..."

Yang Jian was supporting the huge hull. He felt his strength disappearing bit by bit, and the ring on his wrist made a buzzing sound, which seemed to have reached a critical point.He didn't know what would happen if he continued like this, but suddenly he saw two shadows within his reach.One black and one white floating in mid-air, watching everything indifferently like an outsider.

"You two!" Yang Jian gritted his teeth, "Save me!"

Fan Wujiu was in a dilemma, he pulled Xie Bi'an's sleeve, Xie Bi'an said: "My brothers are here today to be on duty, the reincarnation of heaven is like this, how can the real king break the rules? Gods are not allowed to interfere in human affairs."

"What bullshit rules! Which one of them deserves to die? Which should die?" Yang Jian was furious at what he said, "I, Yang Jian, ordered you to come and save people quickly!" It began to gradually press down in his direction, but Black and White Wuchang still looked at this human tragedy indifferently.

Yu Chen opened his mouth, trying to stretch out his hand with difficulty, Rong Pu's ten fingers had already turned into steel blades, and cut a bloody path as soon as they touched Yu Chen's palm.Yu Chen sobbed softly: "How did you...become like this..."

When Yang Jian was about to die, the spell he put on Rong Pu was eager to return to his master, so he began to devour Rong Pu.Rong Pu yelled in pain, the magic spell mixed into his steel body, gnawing at his limbs and bones like ants.He opened his claws and scratched his body, and he grabbed all the skin and flesh, and the surrounding sea water was stained red with blood.

"Senior brother! Don't grab...don't..." Yu Chen cried and wanted to stop Rong Pu, but he was so weak that he couldn't move, he could only watch Rong Pu being tortured so much that he couldn't bear to live.Rong Pu looked up to the sky and yelled, the voice seemed to contain infinite sadness, the pain was secondary.In the end, he was no longer struggling, and the surface of the water that he swung up became calm, and he was soaked in the sea water as if he had no more strength, slowly leaning against Yu Chen's side.

Yu Chen wanted to touch Rong Pu, but Rong Pu avoided it.

Rong Pu put his right hand on his chest, and suddenly cut open the surface with force, Yu Chen screamed, seeing Rong Pu drilled in with steel claws, pouring out the flesh and blood inside.And there, it is very close to the heart.

"Don't! You will die!" Yu Chen stretched out his hand to stop him, but he missed it.Rong Pu wailed under the severe pain, but he didn't stop what he was doing. He tore the flesh into pieces and cut off all the circuits. In the end, he cut open his heart, and in that beating red organ A small chip was squeezed out of the bag and placed safely on Yu Chen's palm, along with that piece of jade.

Yu Chen had been crying for a long time, looked at the object in his blood-drenched palm, and looked at Rong Pu who was already dilapidated and dead, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Why...why... "

Rong Pu was speechless, his strength had long been melted away by the spell, and his broken body was soaked in the cold sea, which made him recover some consciousness.He didn't feel pain, only regret, and he had a lot to say in his heart.He watched Yu Chen crying and twitching non-stop, he couldn't make a sound, but he couldn't even utter a word of comfort. His heart had been dug out by him long ago, so it shouldn't hurt anymore.

He was so tired, his eyelids were as heavy as lead, and the coldness spread all over his body, but finally, finally, he could rest.

After I land, can I visit your house as a guest?

The city where I live never snows, I miss it so much.

Rong Pu's body was gradually engulfed by sea water, Yu Chen wanted to hold him back from sinking, but he didn't even notice that his hands were covered with wounds.But Rong Pu was too heavy, and Yu Chen's frozen fingers had no strength, so he could only watch Rong Pu sinking bit by bit, sinking, and finally disappeared.

"No—!" Yu Chen cried out, "Ah—"

In fact, he couldn't make any sound anymore, lying on his side on the deck, his eyes staring blankly at the sea surface, after those hoarse voices passed away, there was a deathly silence.The rain was heavier than before, beating on the sea.The gore can be diluted, but the shadows of pain, suffocation, and death still linger over this sea area.

Behind the dark clouds in the distance, there was a bright white, and then there was a long howl, indistinct, like a wild beast.The voice gradually approached, the bright white ones were like snow and silver scales, the dragon's tail was thrown behind him, his eyes were already full of floating corpses, he saw Yu Chen who was stimulated and passed out, but where was there Yang Jian?
