After hearing this sentence, Dragonfly looked at him with a half-smile: "Who told you I'm back? I just came to say goodbye."

"You! Dragonfly from Qing Guiyuan, explain to me what is going on?!" He stepped forward and grabbed the dragonfly by the collar, Can Xia was furious. For a long time, it seemed like rubble rolled down from the hillside, rolling more and more, unable to stop, "Do you know how much that guy Lan Xin suffered for you?! Today is her birthday, and she has been waiting for you!"

Sarcastic and slightly sad eyes swept over Can Xia, and Dragonfly's voice became ethereal: "I know, I know today, no, to be precise, it was yesterday, three hours ago, and it was her birthday. I also promised her Proposed to her on her birthday, but now it's impossible. You see, I missed it, and this time it will be forever."

The question just now suddenly became clear in an instant, what Lan Xin cared about was not his birthday, but his oath.But knowing it, why didn't you come back sooner?Why did you say you were going to leave after you came back?

So Can Xia grabbed the dragonfly and chased after him: "Why?!"

Then, a sudden, unconscious glance made Can Xia freeze in place.

Taking a step back and not asking any more questions, he seemed to understand.

It is impossible for him to recognize the imprint on the dragonfly's chest.That is the mark that will only appear after being bitten by Inugami, which means surrender to Inugami.

It wasn't until this time that Can Xia discovered the various details that she had neglected.

The reason why Dragonfly came in through the window when he returned to the demon hall was because he didn't want everyone to find out that he had come back.

Why he still looks like a monster with swords drawn in a safe demon hall? It's not because he wants to, but because he can't return to his human form.

Why would he kiss Lan Xin in front of him, say "I love you to death" to her, and "I'm here to say goodbye" to him.

Every action of the dragonfly has its clear meaning, who doesn't understand.

Backing up a few steps in disbelief, Can Xia heard the dragonfly's voice and continued, but he didn't want to hear it at all.

"Can Xia, I kept my promise with you to protect Du Fu. That kid wanted to avenge Ge Liuduo and was almost killed by the monsters under Inugami. I stopped him halfway. But I escaped this time, and there will be no next time." People can guarantee it. Xuenv has died in battle, and I have not been able to guard her. I think the Siwen family should make an announcement in the daytime. Well, I am leaving, but I have not conceded defeat. Stop the night walk! You all stay here well! I want you all to live well."

Unable to control herself, she punched Dragonfly in the face, just like herself when she was a child, Can Xia yelled at Dragonfly: "Then what do you want Lan Xin to do?! She's sick! Without you, she will die!"

Eyes flickering, dragonfly stood there without speaking.

After a long time, he slowly said: "And you, Can Xia, let her live. Live with her."

Powerlessly retreating to the wall, Can Xia raised his right hand to touch his right eye, where there was a dull pain for no reason.

"Haha. Dragonfly from Qingguiyuan, you are such a bastard."

Castle in the sky

The hallway was dark, only the cold moonlight pouring in from the window.

There was a person standing there, it was a familiar face in Can Xia.

Can Xia was clearly unable to restrain his emotions, but he stood there unable to move.He watched the man's eyes flickering, his lips opened and closed slightly, and the words flashed in an instant.

——"Can Xia, let her live. Live with her."

——Live, live with Lan Xin.

Taking a breath of cool air, she sat up suddenly from the bed, for a moment, Can Xia couldn't see anything.After groping to find the switch at the head of the bed, it was immediately turned on, and the dazzling light came down—white moonlight, white curtains, and white sheets.

After a few seconds of thought stagnation, Can Xia suddenly remembered that she was in the hospital, and what happened just now was a memory, a dream.

"Haha."

Laughing dryly for no reason, Can Xia lay back on the white hospital bed again.Stretching out his hand to fumble to turn off the bedside lamp, he raised his eyes and stared at the blurred ceiling in his vision.The eyes have adapted to the surrounding darkness, but the cold air still fills the lungs without warming up.

——How long has it been since I dreamed of you, dragonfly.

Hyakki nocturnal, this real nightmare seems to come suddenly for no reason, and announces its end without warning. If you don't experience it yourself, you will doubt whether it really happened.

But how can we live peacefully as if nothing happened?After all, it has been here before, leaving behind its frail body and the devastation around it.

A year has passed since the catastrophe was declared over.

Even though it was a midsummer night, Remnant Summer still felt inexplicably cold.Dragonfly's last words are still echoing in my ears - live, live, and be with Lan Xin.

He remembered this sentence and said it silently in his heart from time to time.

Then, he did it, he survived, and although he may not be long, he did not die in the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts.As for Lan Xin, she is also alive, but Can Xia sometimes doubts—is it really right for me to do this?

Can Xia watched from the side, and he watched Lan Xin's entire life toss, consume, damage, and approach destruction for such a redemptive love.

Will there be rebirth after this destruction?he does not know.Nobody knows.

——Is this Lan Xin still alive?dragonfly.

Remnant Summer's question has no answer.

The night the dragonfly left, Can Xia was like this, in the dark night, alone, thinking constantly but unable to come to a conclusion.

When Lan Xin knocked on his door early the next morning, she stood in front of him expectantly and asked him, "Is the dragonfly back? He must be here! I can feel that he is back! He is here." Look at me!"

Can Xia closed his eyes not to look at her shining eyes, he heard her cheerful voice like a bird chirping in early spring, not at all like a girl who was still sick at night, and then he heard his calm voice Cut everything off: "He didn't come back, Lan Jiang."

There was no rebuttal, no argument, not even a look of disbelief.Can Xia looked directly at her calm face in Lan Xin's eyes, and repeated: "Lan Jiang, it's your illusion, Dragonfly didn't come back."

It's not that he didn't think about telling Lan Xin the truth, but he had to restrain himself when thinking this way, Can Xia had a premonition that if he told her that the dragonfly would not come back again, the result would not be something he could bear. Because she can't bear it.What must be done to keep her alive?What kind of method should be used to fulfill Dragonfly's entrustment before leaving?

If the wait is extended indefinitely, no news may already be good news.Can Xia watched the girl's face turn pale layer by layer, and he gave her a gentle hug: "Wait a little longer. I'll wait with you."

—Give her a little hope.Even a little bit is fine.Even if it's fake.Time will wash away everything, as long as she chooses to live now.

Can Xia felt Lan Xin's body trembling slightly in her arms, and there was a faint response: "Wait, wait with me. Can Xia, are you not lying to me?"

——Hehe, I lied to you.

"Well, I won't lie to you, let's wait together."

In this way, Can Xia gave Lan Xin a vow based on deception.

They wait together.When the dragonfly predicted Zhongxuexiaolu's death, Lin Lindie and Duli also left quietly.Waiting, waiting until Fan Zhizhong finally couldn't take it anymore and left the demon hall, and waited until there were only Lan Xin and Can Xia left in the demon hall.

What has never come is any news from dragonflies.nothing.

Of course, this "nothing" is only for Lan Xin.Can Xia discusses with Sanae, discusses with everyone in the demon house, and conceals the news of the dragonfly's death that came long after Xuexiaolu's death.

Can Xia took a last look at Dragonfly without telling Lan Xin, and he saw him lying calmly in front of the ancestral monster Siwen.Can Xia has no doubt that Dragonfly must have fought countless rounds with Inugami as he said before leaving. After all, it is not that simple to want his life.

He watched Sanae rush forward to hug his son and cry, and heard Siwen's old voice conveying his condolences: "The Qingguiyuan dragonfly tried its best to frustrate Inugami's plan, Sanae, you should feel sorry for your son pride."

--pride?

"Ah."

Can Xia watched from afar, just watched from afar.

At that moment, he didn't feel how proud he was to have a friend who sacrificed himself in exchange for righteousness, but boredom, anger, powerlessness, and grief filled his heart.

The night of ignorance passed in a blink of an eye, when the morning sun shone through the curtains into Can Xia's ward, Can Xia knew that it was a new day.

"Boom-thump-thump-"

The door of the room was pushed open, and the girl with nothing was standing outside the door: "Can Xia, good morning."

Can Xia greeted her with a smile: "Ah, good morning, Lan Jiang."

——Just leave like this, leaving me here to clean up the mess for you.

Dragonfly, should I be proud of you?

After washing up, Lan Xin helped her to enjoy the breakfast she brought, this kind of life was no different from usual, after all, Can Xia had already lived in this hospital for half a year.

The life wheel of the Baimu clan is short and shallow, and it has become more and more decadent after being polished for a long time, and just like Dragonfly said, Natsume Canxia is a fool who can't take care of himself, and only keeps running around for others.Therefore, just as Watari came from Ben again
