Ghostly Eyes [Tomb Raiders]

Liking men is not a very honorable hobby, and it is not worthy of high-profile publicity, so Ah Jiu somewhat understands Li Qiu's hesitation.After eating a plate of steak, Ah Jiu finally wiped her mouth full, wrapped her arms around the shoulders of the sofa, and raised her legs comfortably.

"you are lying."

"What did you say?" Li Qiu's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show any flaws on his face, and looked at the other party suspiciously.

Ah Jiu stretched out her finger and gestured to him like doing arithmetic: "I was injured and admitted to the hospital three months ago. I was in a coma for two full months. After waking up, I left the hospital and wandered on the streets for another month. If you It's such an intimate relationship with me, why haven't you come to me for three whole months?"

Li Qiu lowered his eyes and bit his lips uncomfortably.

"I see that you are doing well now, you don't lack anything for food and clothing." Ah Jiu looked at Li Qiu from the beginning to the end, and from the end to the end, still smiling: "Is it because I used to idle around like a locust every day?" I want you to blackmail you, that's why you avoided me so desperately, and didn't come out to look for me until three months after I disappeared."

"No... no, something troublesome happened to me recently, so I delayed looking for you. I'm sorry Ah Jiu, I should have come to pick you up earlier."

Ah Jiu rested her chin with her hand. Although she was still smiling, the meaning in her smile was much weaker. "How do you want me to believe you? You have to come up with some evidence. Anyone can say empty words."

Upon hearing this, Li Qiu immediately raised his head, "What evidence do you want? As long as I have it, I can provide it to you."

"That's it..." Ah Jiu glanced at the mobile phone on the table, and suddenly smiled a little smugly: "Then give me a kiss."

"what?"

"Kiss on the face, so I can know the truth."

This is a restaurant. Although there are not many customers, it is a monitored public place after all.Kissing openly on such an occasion, men and women have to be scrupulous, then the same sex is even more... But Li Qiu didn't hesitate much, and quickly made up his mind and raised his head.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew across Li Qiu's bangs, and when Li Qiu reacted, Ah Jiu, who was on the opposite side, was close to him at some point, and clung to his face!

Li Qiu's pupils shrank subconsciously, but his body couldn't move - Ah Jiu leaned over half of his body, and firmly clamped his wrist, the two of them were facing each other tightly, skin to skin, and Ah Jiu Those dark and deep eyes were facing his eyes.

Light and shadow scattered in an instant, and the black pupils were like a bottomless vortex, sucking him and his soul together.

Li Qiu's eyelids trembled, and he closed them almost without any struggle.

In the next second, Ah Jiu supported Li Qiu's limp body with one hand, let the unconscious person lie down in his arms, then stretched out the other hand, hugged him lightly, and relaxed close your eyes.

There is a faint tea fragrance on Li Qiu's body, light and distant, if it is not so close to him, he would not be able to smell it at all.

After a few breaths, Ah Jiu quickly shook his head and let him go.

There was no heartbeat, no throbbing, not even an iota of familiarity.He hugged him like he was hugging a strange and warm body, without any emotion that could be called.

The mouth can weave lies, and the brain can lose memories, but only the memories left in the body will never change.

"Unfortunately, you really lied to me."

+ + +

"Sir? Sir? You wake up."

The crisp female voice seemed to come from another world.

Li Qiu opened his eyes bewilderedly, and found that he had fallen asleep at some point, the table in front of him was full of empty plates and bowls, the waiter Xiao Cai was looking at him worriedly, but the man facing the table was nowhere to be seen up.

Li Qiu stood up with a "huh", and quickly scanned the surroundings. There was no sign of Ah Jiu in the huge restaurant.Xiao Cai saw what he was looking for, and said kindly, "Your... friend, he left half an hour ago, didn't he say hello to you?"

"Where did he go?!"

"I-I don't know about this, it's just that people disappear after leaving the house." Xiao Cai was taken aback by Li Qiu's tone, why did the black shirt of the jobless man turn out to be someone very important to this handsome guy?

It's been half an hour already, so it's obvious that we can't catch up, Li Qiu is angry at his carelessness, knowing that the man is highly guarded and vigilant, and has a pair of special "eyes", how could he be so careless and easily catch him the way.

Xiao Cai was still waiting for him to pay the bill, Li Qiu smiled apologetically, walked to the door, reached for the wallet in his pocket, but found nothing.

Li Qiu's expression flickered, and he couldn't laugh or cry—that guy, that guy actually took his wallet before leaving, now let alone finding someone, even how to go back to the city has become a problem.

He is really as bad-tempered as ever, vigilant and mean, exactly the same as when we first met.

Xiao Cai caught the embarrassment on Li Qiu's face and couldn't help saying: "Sir, you...?"

"Sorry, I... I forgot to bring my wallet." Li Qiu said sincerely, after thinking about it, he took off a pendant on his belt - a blue ancient Buddha jade. "The current market price of this Buddhist jade is [-] yuan. Can it be put here as a mortgage? I will come back tomorrow and make up the full amount of the meal."

Xiao Cai opened his mouth and looked at the proprietress as if asking for help, but the proprietress was not there at this time.Suddenly remembered something, Xiao Cai hurriedly said to him: "Sir, what does your wallet look like? Is it a white maple leaf wallet?"

"Yes, how do you know?"

"Because I saw it with my own eyes, that guy was holding your wallet in his hand when he went out!" Xiao Cai was filled with righteous indignation, and couldn't help complaining for Li Qiu, "By the way, we have surveillance cameras at the entrance of our store to testify! Sir, I will take you to the police station to call the police, he is blatantly stealing, and I can also testify for you!"

"No need," Li Qiu grabbed the kind girl and shook his head, "It's really no need, I think my friend was just playing a joke on me, it doesn't matter, I will definitely make up for the meal, I'm sorry I'm really sorry for causing you so much trouble."

After repeated persuasion, the girl finally gave up resentfully and agreed not to pursue the matter.Li Qiu pushed open the store door, and a suffocating heat wave came towards him. In such a hot and hot afternoon, that guy has no memory, where would he go alone?

After a long time, Li Qiu's lost figure walked out of the shop and disappeared into the distant street.

On the roof of the Ajiu western restaurant with the signboard hanging, the missing Ajiu was sitting there with her chin resting, tossing a white maple leaf purse with one hand, looking at Li Qiu's far away back, thoughtfully .

The roof was several meters above the ground, and there were no handrails or ladders around. No one noticed when or how he got up.

"Li Qiu."

After chewing it several times in his mouth, Ah Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly—no, no matter how many times he repeated it, it was a completely unfamiliar name to him, and it couldn't arouse any memory at all.

In the few months since he woke up from the hospital, Li Qiu was the first and only person who actively looked for him.Today, as the first meeting between the two, Li Qiu showed him the greatest kindness, gentleness, politeness, and lowered his posture.

Ah Jiu lifted his ears, revealing that under the cover of broken hair, a pair of pure black earrings made of obsidian were on the earlobe. This was the only thing he kept on his body after waking up, and it was also the only item that triggered past impressions since he lost his memory.

Thanks to this thing, the conversation between Li Qiu and Xiao Cai at the door of the store just now, all the words were heard in his ears.

Even though he knew that he stole the wallet, Li Qiu didn't complain at all, and even tried his best to preserve the image of "Ah Jiu" in front of outsiders.

Ah Jiu tossed up the wallet again, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth: This Li Qiu, should we say that he is kind and stupid, or is it really like what he said, "Ah Jiu" is a very, very important person to him, Let him tolerate and forgive regardless of any mistakes.

What is the truth, then... listen carefully.

At the same time, the miniature listening device connected to the earrings was tightly stuck to the inside of Li Qiu's belt like an ant, and Li Qiu's quiet eyes were also staring at this tiny thing without blinking.

Didn't he just hypnotize himself, steal his wallet, leave without saying goodbye, and leave with a bug on himself?

Li Qiu shook his head, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh at this moment, if he didn't know Ah Jiu from the past like the back of his hand, he might not be able to guard against this first meeting, no matter how careful he was.But fortunately, he knows Ah Jiu very well, understands Ah Jiu's habits and methods, and understands his precautions and vigilance against the outside world.So as it should be, he also knew what method to use to deal with Ah Jiu.

With a "ding", a text message was received on the phone.

Sender: big brother

Content of the letter: How about a blind date?

Li Qiu smiled, and quickly pressed his fingers to reply: I saw his eyes.

—Oh, that's a failure.

——I have a way to stay in touch, and I believe we will meet again soon.

——Hurry up, the competition for blind dates is fierce now, you have to be under pressure.

— Got it, brother.

——Brother has confidence in you, after all, he has liked you very much since before.

Li Qiu's hand trembled slightly, his gaze was fixed on the last line, and countless pictures flashed before his eyes - guns intertwined in the tunnel of the tomb, exploding fire balls, and the picture of Ah Jiu desperately rushing towards him at the last moment .

Li Qiu closed his eyes, tried his best to expel these chaotic memories from his mind, don't think about it anymore, don't think about it anymore.

That person is just Ah Jiu now.
