The whole world thinks I'm inscrutable

Xiao Shun didn't know where Ke Shao'an learned about the private conversation between him and Xiao Cheng, so he smiled wryly: "He hates innocent people."

So he "packaged" himself with good deeds, making Xiao Cheng think that he did these thankless things for "vain fame".

"In today's world, purely good people can't survive. Corrupt officials are traitors, and honest officials are even more traitorous, so that they can defeat those people and achieve their goals." Xiao Shun said: "If you want to work hard for justice, you must learn to If I can't even do this, I don't have the right to stand in this position. If I don't harm those dozen people, I have no chance to save those people. Tens of thousands of people. Wang Qiong said that you hate this kind of behavior that uses the name of justice to cover up your incompetence, but I am not you, I am not that powerful, and I can bear all troubles to achieve my goals regardless."

Ke Shaoan commented, "I'm not satisfied with your answer."

Xiao Shun said helplessly: "I am not qualified to defend myself, but this is my sincere words."

Ke Shaoan asked back: "Who said that what I am dissatisfied with is the place where you did bad things?"

Xiao Shun was surprised.

Ke Shaochen: "In the whole company, except for the mascot Xia Jun, there are not many people whose hands are cleaner than yours. Everyone is a creature living in the gray area and chaos. If you want to survive, you must do those who live in harmony. Things that are 'unacceptable' in the eyes of the people of the world. These are our rules and principles, and there is no such thing as 'darkness' at all. The words 'you can't do bad things' are just those people who have never seen cruelty, but arbitrarily yearn for it. It's just the innocent words of the bright fellow."

Xiao Cheng couldn't help but said, "That's what I want to say."

Ke Shaochen shrugged his shoulders: "I don't want to sacrifice the interests of a small number of people to achieve a greater goal, because I have the ability to do both, so I do it, but I never said that I want others to do the same. .”

Xiao Cheng said cautiously: "So...do you agree with my behavior?"

Ke Shaochen: "When you are in deep darkness, you still want to save others and bring light to others. I agree with this. But it doesn't mean that you can take this kind of money after you touch my bottom line. Treat it as a gold medal for avoiding death, let me forgive you."

Xiao Shun smiled wryly: "I don't understand why you ask these things."

If you ask the crime, you will ask the crime. What are you doing with these psychological analysis, there are no outsiders here, and the sympathy points will not have the effect of adding public opinion at all, so you can reduce his sentence.

Ke Shao said angrily, "It's not because of those idiots."

If he hadn't been concerned about the emotions of those monsters, he would have been too lazy to take the time to give Xiao Shun a chance.

Xiao Shun was puzzled.

Ke Shaoan glanced at the butterfly demon behind him, and said to Xiao Shun: "Okay, your answer barely passed the test, I will let her send you back."

Xiao Shun couldn't help opening his eyes wide, and said in disbelief, "Are you willing to let me go?"

Ke Shaochen: "Yes."

Xiao Shun really couldn't figure it out.

How could this easily let him go?

Ke Shaoan urged: "Let's go? What are you doing here, waiting for them to give you a farewell party?"

Xiao Cheng hesitated for a moment, but finally got off the bed.

"From now on, don't have anything to do with us. No matter what the reason is, as long as you step into the door of my company and communicate with my people, I will not give you a second chance." Ke Shaoan warned: "Understand what I mean."

Xiao Shun was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I understand."

Being watched by the butterfly demon all the way back home, Xiao Shun was waiting for death to come suddenly along the way.He judged others by himself, and felt that Ke Shao'an might just say one thing and do another in order to let him relax his vigilance, but in the end he would still take his life.

But when he was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling and thinking about all the things in his life, he waited quietly for more than half an hour, and nothing special happened around him.

So I couldn't help but feel a little hope.

——Could it be that Ke Shaochen really let him go?

Let go of him who knows his secrets and is still an enemy, go back?

Why?Isn't he worried?Doesn't he know his bad deeds and all his despicable evil deeds?

……

The investigation mission could no longer continue, and the death scythe hanging around his neck was at a point where it might fall at any time.Xiao Shun, who had already taken care of everything behind him and ensured that no matter when he died of illness, he would not cause too much trouble for others, counted down the remaining time in this life with the mentality that every second he lived was a second. I didn't make any unfulfilled wish.In this last time, I went to many places and met many people.

The orphanage that took him in for a period of time; the restaurant owner who took care of him when he was working and studying; a few classmates who were very close to him when he was a student; a secret love affair in college, but because of the terminal illness, he was cruel The girlfriend who broke up with her...

These are the people he knew before work, the friends he made when he showed his true side without any profit purpose.Everyone's impression of him is still several years ago, when he was trusted and loved by everyone, so when facing them, he can show consideration without reservation and scruples, and get in touch with them with peace of mind and get along with them gently, instead of Intrigues, intrigues and deceptions weigh the pros and cons, and use calculations to deal with everything around them.

Xiao Shun is also human, he is also afraid of death, he will drink alone in the dead of night, he will cry silently because of the empathy in the movie, he will hate why he has this disease, and he will feel sad about himself. There are always more regrets than satisfactions in life.

But no matter how depressed and desperate he is, he will never spread this negative emotion to others. Except for his working partners who have been in contact with him for many years, almost no one around him knows that this glamorous and promising Men, in fact, have come to the end of their lives, and they can't live long.

He comforted his ex-girlfriend, who had just lost love not long ago, and helped her cheer up to muster up the courage to find true love; when he encountered a classmate who was frustrated at work and was troubled, he gave him advice and ideas; Helped pay medical bills.

Obviously, the pain he has borne is far more than these people combined, but he is still able to think about them from the perspective of others. He has never complained about others, let alone condemned this unfair world, and imposed hatred on others. on others.

Although Xiao Shun has indeed done many bad things these years, at least he is a good person outside of work and in front of these people.That was enough, he was satisfied.

After visiting all the people he cared about, Xiao Shun said goodbye to everyone with a smile full of regret, and finally returned to the capital.

When he came to Xiao Cheng's office, this man who looked a little like him, looked up and saw Xiao Shun's face, showing dissatisfaction enough to scare officials big and small.

"Where have you been during this time?"

Xiao Shun said, "I went to meet some old friends."

Xiao Cheng dropped the folder in his hand heavily, and yelled: "Are you the kind of person who can just sit around and do nothing? How many responsibilities and powers have I entrusted to you, and you are just wasting them like this? But there really is none. it disappointed me!"

Xiao Shun: "Dad."

Xiao Cheng frowned: "How many times have I said, don't call me that outside! After letting those boring guys listen to it, it will cause a lot of trouble for nothing."

Xiao Shun hooked the corners of his lips with a dejected smile, and said, "But, except on such occasions, we don't have the chance to meet each other, do we?"

Xiao Cheng stared at Xiao Shun impatiently, as if to say, how old are you, why do you still say such childish words.

Xiao Shun finished what he wanted to say just now: "I'm leaving soon."

"..."

When Xiao Cheng heard this, the irritable look on his face subsided a little, as if he hadn't expected it.He said, "Isn't there still a year or two..."

Xiao Shun: "Well, but the state is not very good recently, so..."

Xiao Cheng's eyes sank.There was a quiet silence between the two for a while, Xiao Cheng said, "That's why you went to those places?"

Xiao Shun: "Yes."

Xiao Cheng sighed: "I know."

Xiao Shun: "Dad, is there anything you want to do? I want to use this last bit of time to help you as much as possible."

Therefore, I also hope that you can use this last bit of time to accompany me well and remember me.

Xiao Cheng nodded and said, "I know you are filial, I do have something to do."

Xiao Shun: "..."

He smiled disappointedly, thinking that it was indeed the answer.

"what's up."

Xiao Cheng: "During the few days you left, that so-called 'Shihe' was finally spotted by Guan Zhong."

Xiao Shun was taken aback when he heard the words, subconsciously took a step forward, and raised his voice a little: "What? Why!"

Could it be that he accidentally leaked something?But shouldn't it?He did nothing!

Xiao Cheng glanced at Xiao Shun in surprise, he didn't expect Xiao Shun to have such a reaction.After observing him carefully for a few seconds, it seemed that he had thought of something, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes as he stared at Xiao Shun.He said: "Guan Zhong's secretary discovered that Shihe's boss had an affair with a monster. After investigation, it was determined that there was a problem with Shihe, and all the employees in it turned out to be monsters... If this kind of gang stays in the capital, it will definitely be a big trouble, so Guan Zhong has assembled. Gather all the people on his side, and prepare to deal with the world and attack. You bring people, go over—"

Xiao Shun was impatient, he didn't have time to finish what Xiao Cheng said, and asked, "What about the monsters in there?"

Xiao Cheng asked in doubt: "What should I do? Of course, I still follow the old rules - I will deal with all the monsters he can't handle, and he has no right to know and will not intervene."

Although the two of them usually fight to the death, they still have a tacit understanding and will choose to cooperate in this kind of thing.

Xiao Shun's body swayed weakly, and he took two steps back in a vain manner—the thing he was most worried about happened, and the result was far worse than he imagined!

Seeing Xiao Shun's reaction, Xiao Cheng no longer concealed his suspicion, and said, "Did you already know that Shihe is about Monster Company?"

Xiao Shun's face turned pale, and he stared blankly at Xiao Cheng without speaking.

Xiao Cheng: "Whether you know it or not, the situation is urgent now, and we will talk about those things later." Xiao Shun has always been the one to deal with dangerous tasks like this kind of close contact with monsters, and he usually just stays behind to make decisions. So in the final analysis, Xiao Shun is still needed.Xiao Cheng said: "What are you still doing in a daze? Could it be that those monsters will get into the cage obediently by themselves? Hurry up, so as not to be preempted by Guan Zhong again."

"..."

After the deadly silence, Xiao Shun suddenly raised his head and smiled at Xiao Cheng.This smile is very pure, without any impurities, like a child's pure smile from the heart, but it looks very abrupt on this occasion.

He asked Xiao Cheng, "Dad, if I die, will you shed tears for me?"

Xiao Cheng looked very unhappy, and said displeasedly, "What are you talking about?"

Xiao Shun said: "Actually, I have always been very clear that Dad, you despise my lowly background. You think that only children born to women like Aunt Qi are worthy of the surname Xiao and your blood. So I felt very inferior, and thought that if I was capable, would I be recognized by you, so I worked hard to take the civil service exam in college, went to work in the capital, and then saw you again. Although many things happened in the middle, but at any rate Now I can stand in the same place and talk to you like this."

Xiao Cheng is very clear about Xiao Shun's ability to act. Back then, he was just a teenager in high school. With only a blurry photo of his early years and a small group photo in the newspaper, he followed the clues and went directly to his home. "Recognize relatives".

Although he kicked him out on the spot, but seven years later, in the workplace, he had to meet Xiao Shun once again in the form of cooperation.At that time, he was greedy for Xiao Shun's ability and the benefits he brought, so he had no choice but to accept this "son".As a result, over the past few years, Xiao Shun approached him step by step, unknowingly making him his right and left hand, and a reliable tool to know many of his secrets.

Although I don't understand the meaning of Xiao Shun's obsession with the "family" relationship, at first I was worried whether he approached me with the purpose of "Xiao Cheng's heir", or wanted to take revenge on him for abandoning him for so many years .But after confirming Xiao Shun's sincerity, Xiao Cheng heaved a sigh of relief after learning that his life was not long, and then decided to make good use of this stupid boy with a good mind but lacking a muscle, to be his own chess piece.

"When I heard you call me son, I was really happy. I felt that all these years of hard work have paid off. I can finally have a family who loves me like others. So even during the physical examination, check I didn't feel too sad when I found out that I had cancer, after all, you can believe that I am not greedy for your power and status, so let me stay by your side." Xiao Shun laughed at himself and said: "Originally, the past 20 years Life is not so comfortable, it doesn't matter how long you live, as long as you live happily in the last few years, that's what I think. If you want to do great things, you always have to sacrifice something. In order to catch monsters and build research I put all my time and energy into building a good relationship with the whole teaching, even though I knew that there are medicinal herbs that can cure all diseases in the demon world, I didn't pay much attention to it..."

Xiao Cheng couldn't listen anymore, and interrupted: "What exactly do you want to say? Do you think I'm sorry for you? Or do you want to express how wronged you are and how much you sacrificed? If you don't want to be big, you can let it go. I've always told you that."

Xiao Shun: "Indeed, I was reluctant to give up those opportunities to claim credit in front of you, so I worked hard. I have done so many things. On the surface, it is for you, but in fact, it is for myself, for myself to be able to get a job." Father's love, for you to like me. But the more I get along with you, the more confused I become, I don't even know if you will cry for me after I die. "

The corners of Xiao Cheng's mouth were tightened, his face looked very gloomy.If it wasn't for Xiao Shun's ability, and the fact that he is the person who knows the situation best and is most suitable for handling the work of catching the world and monsters after he lived and stayed for a while, he wouldn't have the patience to listen to Xiao Shun at this juncture. Some nonsense.Endured it, suppressed the emotions in my heart, and said to Xiao Shun kindly: "So you are thinking about these things, you are such a silly child, how could I not feel sorry for you. It's just that I can't care about personal affairs when I'm working, otherwise If you broke the rules and couldn’t convince the crowd, didn’t you always understand and understand?”

"Is it the same even if I'm going to die soon? Is work really that important? More important than my life?" Xiao Shun shook his head: "I've accommodated you for so many years, tried to understand you for so many years, and I've come to this point Can't you let me make sacrifices for me?"

Xiao Cheng immediately said: "What do you want me to do? I will definitely satisfy you."

"—But the premise is that you can catch those monsters back first, right?"

Xiao Cheng dissatisfied: "Why do you say that? If you don't want to go, some people are willing to go. You are not in good health and are not suitable for this kind of physical work-but you can talk about Shihe with people from the past. Situation, save people wasting time and tossing in vain."

Xiao Shun shook his head: "That's impossible. I won't tell you anything about Shihe."

Xiao Cheng changed his face just like flipping through a book, and his face immediately fell down: "Why, don't you even want to do this if you don't benefit? You say 'willing to do anything', but in reality But you just want to be good for yourself, this kind of attitude is really chilling. Even if you are dissatisfied with me, work is work, don't you even have this sense of responsibility?"

Xiao Shun smiled: "Don't you know what kind of person I am? Benefits are of no use to me, a dying person. I just need unconditional care. I am willing to do anything... But now that I think about it, fatherly love doesn’t seem that important, it’s purely because I was too persistent when I was a child and became a little paranoid because I couldn’t get it.”

Xiao Cheng's face was too dark: "Do you understand what you are talking about?"

"Of course I know." Xiao Shun chuckled softly, "I know I'm doing something extremely stupid..."

After breaking up with Xiao Cheng, all the suffering he had suffered and the tears he endured were all in vain.

But so what.

It's better than going against your own will before you die, and personally hurting those who have treated him well, right?

"I don't want to give up the warmth I've got in exchange for your feelings that you may not be willing to give." Xiao Shun's eyes were bent, his whole body relaxed: "...Speaking of which, the place where you hit me last time is still hurting. , President, you can really do it."

He looked at Xiao Cheng, with a smile in his eyes: "You know what I like to do the most, is an eye for an eye, an eye for an eye, right? If someone treats me nicely, I will treat him well." That's great, if someone wronged me a little, I have to pay it back ten times and a hundred times..."

Xiao Cheng couldn't help shrinking back, and said harshly, "What do you want to do!"

Xiao Shun chuckled softly: "Anxin, it will definitely not hurt more than I did then..."

Tied up Xiao Cheng and locked him in the office, making sure that he could no longer notify his subordinates of his death and hunt down monsters.Xiao Shun seized the time and rushed to Shihe.After entering the door, as expected, he encountered monsters staring at him unkindly.

"It's a shame you still have the face to appear here."

"Obviously we trust you so much."

"Ke Shao said that if you dare to step into the world again, let us kill you with our own hands."

Xiao Shun's smile remained unchanged, and he still had the warm smile on his face when he got along with everyone, and said: "I know, I never thought that I would be able to leave alive when I came this time... But seeing that we had a happy time For the sake of it, can you let me have a word with you, Young Master Ke? I have something very important to tell him, please."

After speaking, as if to prove it, Xiao Shun knelt on the ground without any psychological barriers, with his elbows on the ground, and the back of his head showing his defenseless neck, and said: "You can break my limbs, as long as you leave I have one life, just let me have a word with him."

"..."

Wang Qiong followed Yidie Yao and walked out from the group of monsters.Looking down at Xiao Shun, he asked him, "What do you want to say?"

Although it wasn't Ke Shaochen, but Wang Qiong's weight was big enough, Xiao Shun said: "Guan Zhong and Xiao Cheng are going to join forces, and I'm here to trouble you."

Wang Qiong didn't speak, as if she didn't know the situation and wasn't in a hurry.Seeing that he didn't respond, Xiao Shun explained quickly: "You may not be clear, they are the two most powerful forces in this country. They usually check each other, so no one side can completely become an existence that covers the sky with one hand." , but once they cooperate with each other, no one in the country can fight against them. No matter how powerful your group is, you will still be in a weak position when facing the entire state machine. , he can definitely think of a way to protect—"

Wang Qiong said indifferently: "What does this have to do with you?"

Xiao Shun was speechless.Facing the indifferent eyes of the monsters around him, he gave a forced smile twice, and said, "I just want you to live a good life, I just want... I want after I die, there will still be people who can remember my kindness and be able to serve you well." I regret my death... I'm sorry, at this point, I'm still thinking about these things."

Wang Qiong still maintained an unresponsive expression, silently watching Xiao Shun anxiously and not moving.After all, it was the butterfly demon standing beside him who couldn't bear it anymore, and cautiously persuaded Wang Qiong: "Master Ke said, as long as he passes the test..."

Wang Qiong snorted, turned his head away, and didn't speak.

But this attitude is enough to explain Wang Qiong's thoughts.The butterfly demon breathed a sigh of relief, and removed the surrounding illusion.

Xiao Shun was still confused just now, what the so-called "test" in Die Yao's mouth meant, but the next moment, he was shocked to find that the things around him suddenly changed. He was not in the hall on the first floor at all, but in the hospital Lying in the ward, the blanket was very warm, as if he had never left in the past few days.

Xiao Shun was a little confused.
