Ma Qi and the others went back first, and Kurolo and I stood in front of Xiaobai.The latter looked at me, and said with his usual restraint: "I'm leaving Meteor Street. Lydia, you said, you can do something for me."

"Yes." I nodded cautiously to Xiaobai: "What can I do for you?"

Xiaobai looked down at me and smiled with emotion.His ordinary and featureless face suddenly became lingering, like a layer of lonely and melancholy smoke, carrying the taste of memories and past events.

"Help me get two things." Speaking of my ability, his voice was so soft that only the three of us could hear it, but it was clear enough, "Mary Ford's necklace, and the access card to the Heaven's Gate Headquarters."

"What's that?" I didn't agree, and thought, "I'm not sure if I can..."

"Go back to the room and talk." Kuroro interrupted me.

I just remembered and looked at him questioningly, and he nodded to me.

Could it be Xiaobai that Kuroro is waiting for?

Sitting down in our room, I immediately said to Xiaobai: "My ability is limited, so I'm not sure if I can get exactly what you want, I can only try."

"The Gate of Heaven..." I stopped and asked in confusion, "What is that?"

Xiaobai should be extremely eager to get these two things. I intuitively feel that this is the reason why he stayed on Meteor Street, but sitting on the chair in front of me, he didn't show any urgency. Instead, he stroked his chin and smiled. Erdao: "Is this also one of the constraints?"

I was a little embarrassed, and I didn't know how to answer, but he already replied: "The Gate of Heaven, one of the oldest and most powerful assassin organizations in the dark world, the only thing that is widely known to the outside world is that they use colors as killer code names." , known for its efficiency and mystery at the same time."

So, Xiaobai's Bai is the code name?

I nodded, "Give it to me, the Gate of Heaven's Headquarters..." door card?

"A pass card."

"Access card." I said, and at the same time, a metal-colored card the size of a business card fell from midair.

The card just appeared for a moment and then disappeared. The next second, the card appeared in Xiaobai's hands. He played with it and looked it over a few times, confirming: "This is it."

I didn't see his move at all, as if the card teleported by itself.

Really fast.

"Then, the next one is Mary Ford's necklace." Xiao Bai put away the pass card, leaned forward slightly on the chair, and showed a trace of nervous anticipation in his body language.

The pass card of the headquarters of the mysterious and powerful killer organization Heaven's Gate already sounds like a great thing, what kind of treasure would make Xiaobai more nervous?

I asked, "Is the name of the necklace 'Mary Ford's necklace'?"

"No, the owner of the necklace is called Mary Ford." Xiaobai said.

"This is too general." I said distressedly, "There should be many people named Mary Ford in the world, right? If they all have necklaces, there is no guarantee that they will get the exact one you want."

"So..." Xiaobai pondered for a few seconds, and immediately said, "Then, plus York Newton—I want York Newton's Mary Ford necklace."

"Which one?" I asked.

"Silver heart-shaped pendant, the one she likes the most." Xiao Bai said without thinking.

"……OK."

I repeated his qualifications with Ling Ling, and I got a necklace strung together with silver chains, the pendant was a little smaller than a pocket watch, and the sterling silver without carvings looked very plain.

But seeing Xiaobai caressing the pendant with one hand, cherishing nostalgia infinitely, one knows that this is not just as simple as a necklace for him.

Is there any commemorative value, I secretly speculate, a lover's necklace?A token of love?

Sensing my curious eyes, Xiaobai smiled slightly and said, "I've been in the South Branch for three years, keeping my schedule low until this time... Lydia, do you know why I support you?"

I shook my head again and again - this is exactly what I can't figure out.

Xiao Bai opened the pendant in his hand, revealing a small photo frame inside.He looked deeply at the photo in the pendant, and said after a while, "Mary Ford is my lover...Your eyes are a bit like hers."

Eyes wide open in surprise, Xiaobai turned the photo frame inside the pendant towards us, and I looked at it curiously—it was a black and white photo with a rose flower bed in the background, and a long-haired girl in front of the flower bed was hugging the young man next to her. arms, looking at the camera with a sweet smile.The man whose arms were hugged was Xiao Bai, and his face remained unchanged from now.

That Rapunzel must be Mary Ford.I focus on her face, which is sweet and beautiful, her eyes are big and bright almond eyes, and her pure and bright smile seems to be full of sunshine.

...I don't think so at all?My eyes aren't that big, I thought gloomily.Especially when laughing, the corners of the eyes are bent down, and the misty eyes look like peach blossoms, not as good-looking as the clear almond eyes!feel lost...

"Oh." Kurollo and I looked at the photos together, and our voices fluttered beside us, expressing our agreement.

I was dissatisfied and slightly aggrieved and bent his elbow, "It's not like..." I said disgruntledly, "I'm not as good-looking as her."

It's really beautiful. The woman in the photo is definitely a beauty, and she doesn't match the ordinary Xiaobai next to her.However, the happy and sweet expressions of the two people facing the camera are exactly the same - if it weren't for seeing the photos, it would be hard to imagine that Xiaobai's always indifferent and indifferent face could still smile so brightly.

They sure are in love.

"Okay, the sharing time is over." Xiaobai said, took back the necklace, and put it on his neck in a precious and precious way.We didn't ask him where the girl in the photo was now - the original owner of the necklace.

"Let's settle this matter, I'm leaving." Xiaobai sighed calmly, and looked at me seriously: "Thank you again, Lydia."

I quickly waved my hand: "It should be, Brother Bai, you have helped me a lot. I just want to ask you..."

"Secret." Xiaobai said knowingly, and then turned his eyes to Kuroro——

"May I ask you for a guarantee?" Kuroro said in a timely manner, "There is no evidence for what I say. I have to be cautious in this matter."

Xiaobai adjusted his sitting posture, without immediately agreeing or categorically denying it, he said relaxedly, "Tell me."

I couldn't help secretly comparing the reactions of Shire and Xiaobai just now, obviously Xiaobai is much tougher than Shire.This is determined by the strength gap.

Kuroro also calmly explained: "A contract bound by thoughts, you promise not to disclose anything related to us in any form, and those who violate it will die. At the same time, you must not get rid of this idea."

"Apart from not being able to tell the secret, does it have any other influence on me?"

"No."

Xiaobai looked at Kuroro and then at me, and responded quickly: "Okay. You can bring the contract."

Xiaobai quickly left - not only from the South Branch, but also from Meteor Street.

We rested for a while after he left, until Kuroro stretched and stood up, announcing, "Let's go."

Leave the South Chapter.

Eldest sister is dead, her battle power is gone, and there is nothing worth caring about here... Looking around, except for this room that I lived in for two years and furnished bit by bit.

Everyone has no objection.

"Let's go...I want to stay here." Lan said in a hoarse voice.

The room fell silent, and everyone looked at Lan.After burying his sister and returning empty-handed, he has been sitting lifelessly beside Yan's bed, hanging his head and playing with a dirty doll that the owner had thrown beside the pillow before, refusing to communicate with anyone.

Now that he said he was going to part ways, I wasn't surprised, but instead felt "... finally here".

"You want to stay in the South Branch?" Kuroro asked calmly.

Lan raised his head heavily, his voice was heavy and hoarse: "Here is the imprint of smoke, and her...I stay here with her. And..." His eyes passed me tiredly and heavily: "I can't face Li Dia."

My heart twitched, I opened my mouth reflexively, and then closed it sadly.

In this situation, it is indeed useless to say anything, only to face...or escape.

I feel bad all over again--

I asked myself repeatedly just now, at that time, did I speak out the spirit of speech?Is that speaking spirit just my hallucination, and it didn't actually make a sound?

Searching the memory with the vigor of digging three feet into the ground, I still can't be sure whether I yelled out the voice at that critical moment.The time was so short and the mind was too tense, I'm not sure if I was hallucinating from the strong desire to survive...

I asked Kuroro without any hope. He was far away at the time and had no impression at all.The same goes for Feitan—he also warned me not to dwell on this matter, "It's meaningless." He said sharply and indifferently.As for Lan, who was the only one on the rooftop besides Yan and me... I couldn't possibly ask him this question.

I always tend to use the spirit of speech, but I can't believe my memory.In the end, this inquiry can only be ignored—perhaps what Fei Tan said is right, I am just a mediocre person.Is it an attempt to excuse or prove something?The result is already like this.No matter what the process is, Yan is dead, and Lan will not forgive me.And myself... I have to let myself go.

This is not my fault.I am right.

Like so many things before, put the past behind you and move on.It's dark, close your eyes and wait, and then open it is dawn.Things will always pass, and memories will be forgotten.

That's it.

Looking back at Lan's gaze, I knew that as long as I turned around and showed my will, Kuroro would open his arms and let me hide in, defending me and giving me support without a doubt.But I just sat in place alone, with my back straight, and my eyes didn't flicker.

It has ended.

"You can stay, you can." Kuroro said to Lan, "but the problem is, you know too much."

You know too much - I'm amused, Kuroro speaks like a villain.

Lan's face changed abruptly.The muscles on his face twitched, he was silent for a moment, and asked hoarsely, "What do you want?"

Kuroro was slow, obviously confident: "There is no need to cover up with you. One, you sign a contract with me, and the leaker dies, and you will not be expelled. Two, let Parker wash away this part of your memory."

"Wash...memory?!" Lan couldn't believe it at first, and then reacted violently—"This is impossible! I can't forget..." He stopped himself, took a deep breath with an ugly face, and forced himself to calm down and endure.

"How far can you do it?" he asked sadly.

Kuroro glanced at Pike.Pike answered Lan: "It's not as thorough as you think. Blur the information that you can't remember, and keep the other experiences of the past three years, that's all."

Lan struggled for a long time, embarrassed and ashamed: "Do I have a choice? You don't even give me a chance to refuse..."

Fei Tan said coldly and sharply: "Aren't you grateful? If you don't have Pike's ability, I have no choice but to kill you."

Lan choked, and immediately revealed an expression of anger and humiliation, but he couldn't refute.

How did the comrades who once fought side by side get to where they are today?I was a little embarrassed, feeling like I was sitting on pins and needles, but the others looked as usual, but the atmosphere inevitably slipped into stagnation, filled with suspicion and depression.

Kuroro was as steady as Mount Tai and remained silent, Lan finally compromised.

Probably he really had no other choice, and he also lacked the bloody desire to die and destroy everything.

He is such a person.

"Then... alright." He lowered his head suddenly, clenched his fists with his hands on his knees, and clenched his teeth.

"Start, do it."

As stated before, Kuroro signed a contract with Lan.After that, Pike reached out to touch Lan, asked him a few related questions, and then activated the ability.

I don't know the specific working principle of Pike's ability. I only know that she can detect the memory of the other party through physical contact and questions.Now there is one more item, which is to blur or even clear the other party's specific memory through similar means.

The former is simply born for information, while the latter... seems to be tailor-made for me.

Pike quickly finished modifying Lan's memory, she let go of her hand, and signaled to Kuroro that it was completed.

She turned to leave, revealing Lan sitting on the bed, covering her face with her hands on her knees.The latter slowly raised his head, looking at us with a dazed look for a moment, but soon regained his clarity:

"Kurolo, let's go... I won't say goodbye." The tone was familiar and bitter.Apparently he still remembers the past.

Kuroro trusted Pike's ability very much, so he stopped probing, just nodded, stood up and said, "Let's go. Everything here is left to you."

Is this going?

I sat on the edge of my bed, pressed my fingers on the mattress under my palms, and looked around at the familiar furnishings, those big and small objects I saw, passed, picked up and put down every day, feeling sad in my heart.

Two years, more than 700 days and nights, just passed away so suddenly.

Hard to find.

"Let's go." Kuroro held out his hand in front of me.I looked up and saw his warm deep black eyes, so reassuringly familiar, reflected me.

I laughed brightly, put my hand into his palm, and was pulled by him forcefully, stood up with my strength, and finally looked around the room: the bed, the lamp, the cabinet... Then I didn't miss it anymore, just focused on looking at his eyes and smiling .

"Let's go."

Let's get out of here—anywhere, me and you.

We are together.

Without saying goodbye, I, Kurolo, Feitan, Maggie, Pike, Knight, Franklin, filed out of the room.Lan was left behind, sitting silently on the bed, playing with the little doll left behind by cigarettes.

Passing through the quiet corridor, passing the stairs, and stepping out of the hall, we left the base building of the South Branch, and the scorching and dazzling sunlight suddenly flooded our heads and faces.

We passed the platform, and Wo Jin and Nobunaga were still sitting on the edge of the platform.Seeing us coming out, the two stood up and walked over, Wojin said: "Are you leaving?"

Crollo confirmed.Wo Jin's breathing became thicker and heavier for a moment, and I almost thought he was going to ask why we left the base like a candle in the wind at this time.

But unexpectedly, Wo Jin said: "Where are you going? We are with you!"

"You want to join?" Kuroro asked calmly.

"Yes! Can you do it?" Nobunaga returned to his usual lazy look, holding a knife in one hand, and exaggeratedly reaching into his clothes with the other to scratch, "Anyway, the base can't stay any longer, so why not hang out with you guys."

"And Uncle Ban also means that." He added.

"And the eldest sister was very optimistic about Kuroro before." Wo Jin also said.

Speaking of half-uncle and eldest sister, although their eyes are still swollen, they have completely recovered the old airy, intimate and aggressive feeling.Having said that, they also grinned at each other, and shook their fists vigorously and boldly, expressing their tacit understanding and approval for each other.

Feelings are so good!

And... this is the people of Meteor Street - they will be sad and reluctant to part with relatives and friends when they pass away, but blindly immersed in remembrance and unwilling to raise their heads on the road, is the greatest disappointment to the deceased!

Even if there are scars on our hearts, we are all forgetful people.

Facing Nobunaga Wojin's application for admission, Kuroro acted calmly: "Okay, welcome."

We are already acquainted, and no introduction is needed.Nobunaga Wo Jin said hello to Feitan and Franklin, who had played better before, and lazily joined the queue for going down the mountain.

After walking a long distance, Wo Jin remembered to ask, "Kurolo, where are we going?"

"I don't know." Kuroro replied coldly and unreasonably.

I had a feeling in my heart, and I couldn't help but look back in the direction of the base.

It was dusk now, and the long day was finally coming to an end.In the afterglow of the setting sun, when you look up, you can see half of the top of the garbage mountain with only a black silhouette left. The base has been left out of sight by us.

Standing on the rubbish all over the floor, with the setting sun above my head, and the sky and the earth as my roof, I suddenly understood the overwhelming sadness in my heart when my elder sister died.

It must be the pain of being abandoned, the helplessness of being kicked out of the house, and the fear of wandering and wandering in the future without roots—the South Branch with my eldest sister is already home.

For how many years, no one has propped up a corner for us, allowing us to rest in peace?Kurolo, Feitan, Maggie, and Pike, we hid, we fled, we betrayed, we were coveted like fat, hated like flies, and chased like stray dogs!From the fifth district to the eleventh district to the eighth district to the second district, I always feel like I'm flying like a canopy, and I can't rest.

When you meet Kuroro and Feitanmachi, they are family members.But it wasn't until I met the South Branch and my eldest sister that I had a home.

You can sleep peacefully, stay in bed, drink and sing, and cry... for two years.

Then?The home is ruined.

We are back on our wandering journey.

With the addition of new partners, the future will be more lively, and we will become stronger day by day.But I still hope, when can I meet another place enough to stop?I would like to do the laundry, wash the sheets, wash the quilt cover and clean up... just want to have a place worth doing.

Always wearing new clothes is actually very uncomfortable, only the smell of fabric and dye.There is no taste of home, let alone a taste of oneself.

"What are you thinking?" Kuroro hugged me from behind.

Only then did I realize that I stopped at the same spot without knowing it, staring at the half silhouette of the garbage mountain in the distance, tears streaming down my face.

"Suddenly sad." I whispered to him, "I'm a little scared."

Chrollo must know what I'm afraid of.Many people have died, we have to leave, this base that has lived and fought and guarded will never come back.

Where are we going, where is our road ahead?

"Don't be afraid." Kuroro said, "I will always be with you."

forever?

I feel relieved, ten thousand out of a thousand are willing to believe in him—but is there really eternity in this world?

"Really?" I choked up and asked uncertainly.Tears fall when I blink.

"At least it's true at the moment." Kuroro said.

"it is good."

"What good?"

"Promise. No matter where you are, you accompany me, we are together."

"this moment?"

"forever."

"it is good."

Follow-up:

——"Don't be nasty anymore!"

"Are you still going?" Fei Tan asked.

"We just want to have dinner now." Knight.

"It's getting dark," March said.

"Let's find a place to rest early today." Pike.

"There shouldn't be a suitable camp near here, and there is still a long way to go...Hurry up." Franklin said.

"...Are they all right? Kuroro, here, Wojin, shall we turn around now?" Nobunaga said.

"Hey, how did you jump here? Aren't we talking—don't know where to go? I said you... If you have nowhere to go, why don't you go back to the hometown of Nobunaga and me first!" Wo Jin.

Kuroro: "Your hometown?"

Wojin: "Yes! It's on the edge of the second district. I'll walk there overnight tonight, and I'll be there tomorrow. How about going? Although I'm poor, there is still a place to live. And such a big event happened , I really want to go back to my hometown to have a look—don’t let anything happen!”

Nobunaga: "This is fine! Speaking of which, I haven't been back since I left the teacher."

Wojin: "Right, right! How is it?"

Kurolo: "What's everyone's opinion?"

Me & Feitan & Madge & Parker & Franklin & Knight: "It doesn't matter, I have no opinion. Listen to you."

Kuroro: "Okay, let's go!"

Wo Jin: "Hey! Then, remember to grab a ticket if you pass by! It's rare to go back to your hometown, so you must bring some greetings, right?!"

Nobunaga: "Let's go and rob! I'm starving to death..."

The author has something to say: the journey is difficult!Difficult to travel!Duoqilu, where is it today?There will be times when the wind and the waves cleave, hang the clouds and sail straight to the sea.

------------

1. There will be a chapter ending tomorrow.

2. About Lan and Yan, their story ends here.Before this pair of brothers and sisters, everyone collided with a lot of ideas, and they all made sense!Here, just talk about my personal point of view:

When I write about Lanyan brothers and sisters, I want to write about a type of people that will definitely be encountered when the brigade gradually takes shape and Kuroro and the others grow up-people who are destined to be left behind.We all know that some friends stay together for life, and some friends drift away.Lan and Yan represent two kinds respectively: Lan has excellent abilities, but lacks that kind of blood; Yan has drive, but is limited by natural aptitude.So one of them died and the other stayed.

In the end, I would like to say that this pair of brothers and sisters are flesh and blood people, with advantages and disadvantages, but overall they are good people.When they met Kurolo and followed this group of spiders who were destined to be extraordinary all the way to the depths of the second district, they experienced wonderful things that they shouldn't have experienced, and finally broke their wings and fell from the sky.This is actually their misfortune.But it doesn't mean that they are destined to live in hardship and poverty on the edge of the second district. This is prejudice.This may be the case in real life—she gives and she takes away, she is generous and she is stingy.Whether you can catch up, whether you can seize the opportunity, whether you can transform into growth... depends on yourself.Destiny is brilliant and cruel.

3. Regarding Lydia’s kindness and entanglement, interested readers can go to the positive number three of the related topics in this article (He Lai Resonance Building), where I have made a more detailed analysis.At the same time, I also remind everyone to pay attention to the comments under each chapter. Not only are there many profound and insightful readers leaving comments, but also the author's impromptu answers, which contain a lot of information that is not covered in the main text.Of course, I will remind you when the author has something to say.

Thank you again for your active and level speeches!

3. Regarding the interpretation of the South Chapter and the Big Sister, I must wholeheartedly recommend the book reviews published by readers Michelle.For the convenience of everyone to read, I paste it below—it can basically represent my views on this issue, so I won’t repeat it here.

————————————————————

Comments from readers Michelle:

Big sister is very strong.

The eldest sister is one of the veterans of the Red Eagle Club. She left to establish the South Branch because she couldn't understand some of the styles there. Note that it is a "branch".I learned from the trumpet that they persuaded my eldest sister to set up her own family more than once, explaining that my eldest sister has the strength and courage to be able to stand on her own and have a great future, but my eldest sister refused. This bold and righteous elder sister will never be with me The former partners turned against each other, even though she didn't agree with their actions in her heart, she still regarded them as partners.

But the Red Eagle Club doesn't think so.

The psychics in all areas are "disabled". Why does your southern branch have the strength to compete with the council for serum?Why hasn't your southern branch been disintegrated?Why did your southern branch restore order immediately after getting the serum and come out to talk to us?

Do you dare to say that you have no rebellious heart?

Do you still remember what the first thing the eldest sister did after waking up? — Let Kuroro and the others leave.

With such a big brother, she knew what the consequences would be, but the eldest sister was worthy of being the eldest sister. Although she didn't order it personally, but her people did it, and she decided to bear it all.

So Kurolo said: Big sister is worth it.

Then Kuroro said, "Big sister's promise, I believe it."

This is a person who can do what he says, such a courageous, charismatic, and self-reliant leader, will Hongying let her go?

No.

So she has to die. This is not a question of whether she will rebel, it is a question of whether she can rebel at any time.

Thinking of this, I feel sorry for Kuroro.

No one is born to insist. Kuroro can be so ruthless because someone is more ruthless to him.Remember the accident at home when he was a child?And the cross on his forehead.I don't know how Meng Shu will construct this history, but it must be a past event that makes people cry and cannot bear to recall.

"The South will be fine. We're still on base until we leave," Kuroro said.

He recognized this place in his heart, recognized his eldest sister, this is a place where he can live.The few of them have been wandering for too long, and there is no place to accommodate them. Each of them has a past that makes ordinary people like us crazy, but they insist on supporting each other and walking all the way.After so long, the only person who can give them a shelter, accommodate their differences, and clean up their mess is only the elder sister.

But the eldest sister is gone.

When Lydia was crying, Kurolo said, "You can cry for me. It's just someone else..."

Does this other include him?

These unaccepted people have lost their last protective cover, and they can only persevere and be strong in the future.

Oh, I really want to hug them.

I am very grateful to Meng Shu for portraying characters like the eldest sister, for letting me know that they were once protected and accepted by others.

very nice.
