If you don't escape this time, you don't know when the next opportunity will be.

Thinking of this, Comet's hands trembled a little, and his breathing became short of breath, but without much hesitation, he immediately began to pack his things as quickly as possible. While packing, he thought about the way to Suqiu Hot Spring. After finishing, Comet stood up, took his things and walked to the door without hesitation, but stopped again, and he turned back to look at Zhao Rongzhen...

In the end, Huixing put down his bag, walked out of the room, asked the front desk for antipyretics and water, returned to the room, woke up Zhao Rongzhen, helped him take the medicine, and lay down next to him with his clothes on, only turning on the lamp .

It seems that because of taking the medicine, Zhao Rongzhen fell asleep more deeply, but Comet couldn't sleep all the time. He didn't stay for anything else. He really wanted to leave just now, but thinking of Zhao Rongzhen saying a few days ago that he would take him home for dinner, that's it. It means that he can see Zhao Qian who has always been like a thunderbolt. Although he doesn't know what he can learn from Zhao Qian, and he doesn't know how much he knows about Uncle Song, it is obvious that Uncle Song is interested in the arms business of the Tiger Gang. Otherwise, he would not have arranged himself by the side of Zhao Rongzhen, who almost controlled all the arms business of the Tiger Gang. Although he did not know when he would have the next chance to escape, he believed that Zhongyi, who brought back the news that he was in trouble, would find a way to kill him. , So Comet is not very worried that he will be trapped by Zhao Rongzhen's side for the rest of his life. Also, he remembered that Zhao Rongzhen helped him last time when he had a stomach problem. This time... just treat it as paying him back.

But, at that time, Comet didn't realize that he couldn't bear it.

The next day, when Zhao Rongzhen woke up, it was already high in the sun. He didn’t feel bad, but he didn’t have much strength. He looked around, only himself was in the room, the comet was not there, and only the packed luggage was there. "Sitting up, his heart was empty, as if he had lost something, and he was dizzy suddenly due to excessive force. When the dizziness got better, he stood up, opened the door, and was about to go out to find Comet, but when he opened the door, Comet happened to Standing at the door with a bowl of porridge and a dish of side dishes, Zhao Rongzhen surprised him when he opened the door, and the porridge almost fell to the ground.

"My ancestor, can you make such a big fuss without getting out of bed? I almost ruined the porridge I worked so hard to make all morning." Comet ignored Zhao Rongzhen's surprised expression, and bumped him gently Open, carefully holding the bowl, and walked into the door by himself.

It wasn't until Comet put the bowl safely on the low table in the room that he looked at Zhao Rongzhen who was still standing at the door looking at him in surprise, "Come and eat, aren't you hungry?"

Only then did Zhao Rongzhen hesitantly go to the table, picked up the bowl and smelled it, "There is no poison." Comet took the bowl from Zhao Rongzhen's hand and took a sip of porridge. He didn't see the expression of Zhao Rongzhen shutting his nose. Choked by the smell of porridge, he coughed twice, "Why is it still mushy? Otherwise, let the kitchen make another bowl for you..." Comet looked at Zhao Rongzhen a little embarrassed, got up and wanted to go out with the bowl, but Zhao Rongzhen pulled He grabbed his wrist, pulled him to sit down slowly, took the bowl in Comet’s hand, drank the porridge in the bowl without any leftovers, and almost finished the side dishes, Comet’s expression changed from surprise to gratitude , I can drink the porridge that I thought would be unpalatable, it's really hard for Zhao Rongzhen.

After Zhao Rongzhen put down the bowl, he looked at Comet calmly, "Why don't you run away while I'm sick? You also cook for me to increase my guilt, and then ask me to let you go?"

Comet snorted softly, and shook his head helplessly, "Didn't you see that your luggage is packed? I wanted to come here yesterday, but seeing your sick look, I remembered the last time I had a stomach problem, you Still help me, this time I will pay you back, we will not owe anyone in the future, I will not ask you to let me go, because until now, I have not asked anyone." Comet got up and put the bowl He took out with the plate, but his mood fell inexplicably because of cheating Zhao Rongzhen.

Zhao Rongzhen looked back at the back of the comet leaving, but there was a warm current in his heart. When he was sick, only Zhang Wei could cook for himself. He thought that only Zhang Wei would give him the warmth of giving charcoal in the snow. When he returned to China , he seldom eats Zhang Wei’s mother’s level of cooking, and he never gets sick, but this time he got sick, no matter what Comet said, his bowl of porridge with a sticky smell brought him warmth in his illness.

Because Zhao Rongzhen was ill, Xiao Jin and the others still wanted to visit Tokyo, so they took the Japanese translator who was almost recovered early in the morning and returned to Tokyo. Before leaving, they made an appointment with Comet to meet at the airport on Sunday.

In the afternoon, Zhao Rongzhen, who was cheered up by Comet’s bowl of porridge, also insisted on going to Tokyo. Comet had been to Tokyo before because of a mission. Because of the tight schedule, he had never been to Tokyo. Looking at Zhao Rongzhen, he was in good spirits I went to Tokyo, but it was already midnight when the two of them arrived in Tokyo, and they stayed in a hotel near the train station. Comet had been dragging an injured leg, and he didn’t sleep well the night before. He seemed to be extremely tired, and fell asleep when he arrived in the room. Although Zhao Rongzhen was tired, he couldn't fall asleep. He lay on the bed, looking at the comet with his back to him. The quilt was only on his waist, and his body was slightly curled forward. He lived a relatively stable life, but he was much thinner than when he first met Zhao Rongzhen. When the stitches were removed from his leg injury, the wound would still hurt so much that he couldn't sleep all night. Zhao Rongzhen didn't know that he was angry. He still doesn't have a good appetite, he always doesn't eat much, and now he can see the slightly exposed shoulder blades, Zhao Rongzhen sighed softly, turned over, as if he was at home before, the two slept back to back, outside the window The neon lights dyed Zhao Rongzhen's eyes iridescent, and finally, Zhao Rongzhen closed his eyes.

The next day, Zhao Rongzhen was woken up by the sound of water in the bathroom. Outside the window was the bright sunshine in spring. Zhao Rongzhen looked at his phone. It showed that it was almost 9:[-], and he couldn't sleep anymore. Zhao Rongzhen also got up and cleaned up After a while, he went out with Comet.

Although Tokyo is a modern city, there are also many historical sites. Many temples have been completely preserved, and they are still providing spiritual sustenance for people to worship.

Some cherry blossoms in Tokyo have already bloomed. Zhao Rongzhen and Comet walked on a sidewalk with pink cherry blossoms on both sides. Because it was the weekend, there were people who came to enjoy the flowers in twos and threes on the stone benches by the roadside. Laughing, everyone had a happy smile on their faces. Zhao Rongzhen and Xixing who were walking in the middle were relatively speechless, and their expressions were relatively relaxed. Zhao Rongzhen took a deep breath of the fragrance of flowers, "Although this fragrance is good, it can't compare to yours. That pot of mangosaurus is good, the fragrance will only stay in the nose and mouth, but the aroma of mangosaura will stay in the heart." Comet squinted his eyes and looked at Zhao Rongzhen sideways, then lowered his head and chuckled.

"I'm probably the only person in the world who can hear the prince of the Tiger Gang expressing such emotion. I'm so honored." Hearing Comet's words, Zhao Rongzhen couldn't help laughing.

"So you have to remember such a moment, this young master is not always able to show the face of a literary youth." Comet looked at Zhao Rongzhen seriously again, and Zhao Rongzhen, who was laughing, felt Comet's gaze, put away his smiling face and looked Xiang Comet, "Why are you so serious all of a sudden?"

"Didn't you say you have to remember seriously? I'm trying to remember." This is the most relaxed and natural smile that Zhao Rongzhen has shown since he was put under house arrest. Comet doesn't know when he will meet such a smile again, As good an escape as it was last night.

The two looked at each other and smiled, as if something was flowing in the two people's gazes, and they avoided each other's eyes tacitly. Zhao Rongzhen suddenly remembered the comet that smiled and waved to him in his dream that night, and what happened after that. Zhao Rongzhen cleared his throat unnaturally.

Walking to the end of this road, there is a quiet temple where few people go. I don’t know if I have too many people’s blood on my hands. Comet always has some resistance to temples or churches in his heart. Today I pray with sincerity, but tomorrow I still don’t know where I will be stained with someone’s blood. No matter how many prayers I pray, it is only spiritual comfort, and it cannot wash away the sins on my body.

"Go in and have a look. I heard that the temple with fewer people is more effective." Zhao Rongzhen held the comet who was about to return, and the comet looked at Zhao Rongzhen in embarrassment, and then at the gate of the temple.

"Can I not go in? I'll wait for you here, I'm sure I won't go..."

It would be a pity if you don't go in after you've come. "Before Comet finished speaking, Zhao Rongzhen pulled Comet's right hand into it, because his shoulder was not fully healed, and Comet didn't dare to struggle too hard, so he could only be dragged in by Zhao Rongzhen.

The two knelt in front of the Buddha statue, Zhao Rongzhen held the burning incense in front of his chest and prayed silently, but Comet was absent-minded, he just bowed and put the incense into the incense burner in front of him, after getting up, he didn't dare to look at it again A Buddha statue.

Comet sat on the bench in the temple and waited for Zhao Rongzhen. I didn’t know what Zhao Rongzhen was praying for. The time was a bit long. Comet leaned on the back of the chair and looked at the sky boredly. The temple was surrounded by towering old trees. The broken blue was seen in the cracks of the temple, perhaps because of the shelter of these ancient trees, the temple seemed very quiet, and no sound from outside could be heard at all. It was the first time that Comet felt that it wanted to stay here.

The sun shines through the leaves, even though it is soft, it still makes Comet unable to open his eyes. He can only block his eyes with his hands, but some sunlight still shines through the gaps between his fingers. He seems to see drops of blood running down the gaps between his fingers flow down.

After praying, Zhao Rongzhen put the incense into the incense burner, turned around and saw Comet sitting on the bench, so he got up and sat beside him, "Why don't you make a wish?"

"Making a wish? People like me don't want to tell the gods what they want, even if they beg him to forgive my sins, he may not even be willing to listen, let alone fulfill my wish." Comet raised his head, and the sun stung his eyes still. Unable to open it completely, "Is it over? Can I go?" Comet got up to leave, but Zhao Rongzhen held him back.

"Do you have a wish?" Zhao Rongzhen looked at Comet seriously, but Comet smiled self-deprecatingly.

"...I have no wish." My wish is to leave you and Uncle Song, and live a life with only myself and the piano.

"Or you don't have to say anything, let's go to divination and see if it can be realized." Zhao Rongzhen got up and pulled Comet to the Buddha statue. When a lottery came, Comet felt uncomfortable all over, so he took one randomly, and Zhao Rongzhen dragged Comet to the ancestral hall behind the Buddha statue.

On the side of the ancestral hall sat an old monk with his eyes closed. There was a low table in front of him. When he heard someone coming in, he slowly opened his eyes. There were already two young people sitting in front of him. Zhao Rongzhen clasped his hands in front of his chest, respectfully The monk saluted, Comet just bowed his head, and the monk returned the salute to the two with clasped hands.

"Is there anything I can do to help you two?" The old monk looked at them kindly, but Zhao Rongzhen couldn't understand what he said, so he looked at Comet.

"He said what he could do for you."

"Please help me to see how these two lottery are." Zhao Rongzhen handed over his own lottery. Although he didn't understand what Zhao Rongzhen said, the old monk probably guessed it when Zhao Rongzhen handed over his lottery. Holding the lottery in his hand, Zhao Rongzhen looked at him sideways, "Hurry up." Comet frowned and shook his head.

"I've already said that I don't have any wishes anymore. If you want to see it, just look at your own."

Zhao Rongzhen didn't listen to Comet's nonsense, and directly grabbed his lottery from him and put it in front of the old monk. The old monk didn't seem angry, and still smiled kindly. He unhurriedly opened Zhao Rongzhen's lottery first— —

When a flower blooms, thousands of people appreciate it, but only wait for a green one to cherish.

He opened the comet's lot again—

There are always times when flowers fall on the other side, just for a leaf to fall in love with.

The old monk looked up at the two people, and then at the contents of the two signatures. His expression gradually became serious. His change also aroused the interest of Comet. Comet looked at the old monk inquiringly, "What is the meaning of this signature?" Comet asked tentatively, he lowered his eyes to look at the words on the signature, although they were all Chinese characters, they were not difficult, Comet silently wrote down the contents of the signature in his heart.

The old monk closed his eyes and twisted the beads in his hands. After a few minutes, he opened his eyes again and looked at the two people seriously. , is the only scenery on Huangquan Road."

"Manzhushahua? The scenery on Huangquan Road?" Comet looked at the old monk in surprise. He didn't expect to hear this name again in this monastery, but it was related to Huangquan Road. "But this flower does exist in the world. I I even raised a pot, but the flowers had withered a few days ago, and now only the leaves are growing..." Comet flatly denied the old monk's statement, he always felt that the theory of ghosts and gods was a bit absurd, and he always heard about Huangquan Road, But who can prove that it really exists? Comet just wanted to deny the old monk's statement in his heart, but the dream he had after he was injured suddenly appeared in his mind again, the dim sky, the cold river water, the green plants, He thought about it carefully, and the green plant really looked like Shahua, the only one left in his pot, "...Huangquan Road..." Comet lowered his eyes and couldn't help saying aloud, but Zhao Rongzhen still looked at a loss, "Can you explain these two lottery for us again?" This time, Comet looked at the old monk humbly, clasped his hands together, and saluted the old monk sincerely.

"From the perspective of Buddhism, two people can know each other because they have accumulated a lot of fate in their previous lives. Whether it is a good fate or a bad fate, these two lottery should be the same, and they happened to be drawn by the two of you. You are friends again, which shows that you have a lot of fate in your previous life. You may have unfulfilled wishes for each other. No matter what wishes you have in your hearts, you are inseparable from each other. Flowers are waiting for leaves, and leaves are also I will look forward to the flowers, even if I will miss each other from life to life, but the fate of this life will never stop." The old monk shook his head helplessly.

"You mean that even if we are destined to take different paths in this life, we will still have a constant relationship?" Comet looked at the old monk inquiringly, but the old monk neither admitted nor denied it.

"Fate is determined by God, just like our acquaintance today is also a kind of fate. Some things can be changed whether they are good or bad. Even if two people walk on different paths, can they be friends for life? It also depends on your heart, the old monk hopes from the bottom of his heart that the two of you can be together for the rest of your life."

Comet sighed deeply, looking at Comet and the old monk seemed to be having a serious conversation all the time, Zhao Rongzhen also became a little uneasy, especially when the two of them came out of the temple and flew back to City S, Comet couldn’t Zhao Rong didn't say much, Zhao Rong really wanted to ask the old monk Comet what he said, and what the two lotteries meant, but seeing that Comet was not in a good mood, he didn't ask first, but he was always worried.

Zhao Rongzhen doesn't think he is a superstitious person, but he cares about the result of this divination, maybe... because he is with Comet.

In fact, Comet was just thinking about the "story" given to him by the old lady in the dream. There must be incompleteness in that "story". He just felt that the dream might indicate something, or that God wanted to tell him something.

Comet thinks he is not a superstitious person, but he cares a little about the result of this divination, maybe... it has something to do with Zhao Rongzhen and that dream.

After getting off the plane, it was already dark, Zhao Rongzhen and Comet took a taxi back home, the car parked under a streetlight downstairs of Zhao Rongzhen's house, the two took out their luggage from the trunk, and when the taxi left, Zhao Rongzhen dragged it I was about to leave with my luggage, and after walking a few steps, I felt that the comet was not following, so I stopped and looked back at the comet.

The comet standing under the street lamp didn’t move, he put his hands in his pockets, and the not-so-bright light illuminated his smile, but Zhao Rongzhen was instantly attracted by that smile. That warmth, my heart still seemed to be caught by something.

"The old monk said that even if we walk on different paths, we are destined to be entangled in this life. If one day I can escape from you, I don't know what entanglement we will have in the future. From this point of view, if you "task" 'If it's my turn again, I really can't do it."

Under the dim light, the comet is like a luminous body, with slightly long forehead hair constantly flying with the sudden wind, with his hands in his pockets, the hem of the beige windbreaker is also gently swaying with the wind.

As if possessed by a demon, Zhao Rongzhen put down his luggage and walked to Comet, then hugged him tightly in his arms, Comet was a little dazed, and could only be held upright by Zhao Rongzhen, "No matter what happens in the future, if you fail to follow me When I ran away, you were at my side with peace of mind, and you still want to help me work as before. I can promise not to kill you, just take care of me when I am sick, and I will give you in return, so you still owe me, When one day you find a chance to escape from me, if you come back again, I will not show mercy, remember, you still owe me."

Zhao Rongzhen's low voice rang slowly in his ears, it sounded like a spell, and never had a voice made Comet sound so comfortable, Comet held on to his will and was not bewitched by this voice.

Does this mean that I have a little bit of Zhao Rongzhen's trust?

Can I use this little bit of trust to plan for the future?

For my escape, for the unknown future...
