After wearing the book, I was targeted by the protagonist

"So brother, why did you leave me at that time?"

The empty house was pitch black, with only a sliver of light leaking from the half-open door.

The tall man stepped halfway into the house, half dark and half light.

Behind the man, a slender young man stood against the light, his face was gloomy, and he couldn't see his emotions clearly.

There was silence around, and after a long time, Ye Shu said, "Go ahead."

He stretched out his hand and pushed, and the half-open door became fully open.

Su Qing glanced at Ye Shu, then walked in slowly.

If you observe his movements carefully, you will find that his steps are very stiff, like a wandering puppet.

Ye Shu closed the door, stood by the door and looked up at the ceiling. After looking for a long time, he realized that the surroundings were pitch black. He raised his hand and turned on the light switch with a "click".

Bright white light poured down, dispelling the darkness.

Ye Shu walked to the living room, Su Qing sat on the sofa with his back facing him, her waist straightened, she didn't know what she was thinking.

"Why is there no brother in my memory?" Su Qing said as if he had sensed Ye Shu's arrival.

Ye Shu stopped in her tracks, doubts flashed in her eyes upon hearing this.

He knew from his memory that Su Qing had also been reborn, but for various reasons he hadn't explored this issue. Now that Su Qing brought it up, many questions surfaced.

For example, why Su Qing was reborn.

Another example is why Su Qing has no memory about him.

"Because he came with you." The system said.

Ye Shu's body shook: "What do you mean?"

The system said: "He has been following you, and when I brought you back, he also followed."

"He came with me..." Ye Shu was in a trance, 【Then why doesn't he have any memory about me? 】

"There are two reasons for this situation. First, he voluntarily closed it. Second, this memory was too painful for him. It was so painful that his brain automatically activated the protection mechanism to forcibly remove this memory. Erase from his memory." The system said coldly.

"So it's like this." Ye Shu murmured, her tall figure leaning against the back of the sofa.

Seen from behind, he looked like he was pulling the person sitting on the sofa into his protection range.

In fact, from the beginning, even if he didn't get back the memory of his previous life, he has been protecting this person as a protector.

Sealing the memory is required by the system, in order to prevent him from being emotional, and falling into the original thing again, guilt, sentimentality, and self-blame.

But he agreed to the system because he never worried about whether he would forget this person after his memory was sealed.

Because he knew that his soul would always remember the boy who squatted in the garden and looked at him with his head tilted.

The facts were exactly as he thought, even though he lost his memory, he still took the person back to his home not long after the two met.

This was impossible in the past, even if he had an easy-going personality, even if the other party was his task target and was injured, he would only take the person to the hospital for treatment, and finally send him home.

This is already the maximum he can do.

But if the object is changed to Su Qing, it will be different. He has wanted to bring this person home countless times.

The future of the two was also planned.

He even thought that Su Qing was happy with him, because even if Su Qing didn't speak or laugh, in front of him, those beautiful eyes were always shining like stars in the sky.

It’s just that he was deceiving himself and others about all of this. That sweet and beautiful memory for him was actually painful for Su Qing, and he wanted to forget and seal it up.

Ye Shu looked at Su Qing's back with complicated eyes, not knowing what to do at all, sometimes he even wished that he would not think of these things so quickly.

In that case, he might be happier for a while longer.

"Why didn't you answer me, brother." Su Qing turned around and said, "If it was you, I would never forget." He raised his head and looked at Ye Shu fixedly.

Ye Shu smiled wryly, "What if I do something that makes you sad and sad?"

"Even if that's the case, I won't forget you." Su Qing said seriously.

Ye Shu was slightly stunned, and then heard Su Qing say: "It's just that if the sadness here refers to my brother leaving me, I may feel very painful, worse than a knife piercing my flesh."

"So brother, why did you leave me at that time?"

"Did you see it? At that time, there were many people around me. Did you leave me because of this?"

Ye Shu clenched his hands tightly, his expression flustered for a moment.

Seeing this, Su Qing stood up, the expression on his face looked even more flustered than Ye Shu, he stepped back a few steps, shook his head while retreating, and suddenly realized, "You know, you saw it, no wonder, no wonder..."

"Su Qing!" Ye Shu's face changed slightly and he strode over to grab him, but was dodged.

Su Qing turned sideways to avoid Ye Shu's hand, stared at Ye Shu for a while, then turned and ran to the room.

"Su Qing!" Ye Shu chased after him, but he was locked outside the bathroom door, no matter how he knocked on the door or called the people inside, he ignored him.

Ye Shu lowered his head in frustration, the sound of water came from the bathroom, Su Qing should be taking a bath, after making this conclusion, Ye Shu's high hanging heart sank a little.

Returning to his senses, he suddenly thought of the sentence "Su Qing came with him" that the system said before.

This is simply impossible, when he met the system, Su Qingzao had not been here for many years, so how could he come here with him?

unless…!

"That's right, he's actually always by your side, existing in the state of a soul." The system said.

"How is it possible?!" Ye Shu's eyes widened, and his cold face cracked.

【He does not belong to this world. He is considered a foreigner, also known as a strayer. He can return after death. What happened here is just a big dream for him. 】

[But in his last life, he didn't go back, but chose to stay by your side, even if you couldn't see him. 】

"Uh..." Ye Shu didn't know what kind of expression to make to face such a huge shock.

His mind went blank.

What the system said completely overturned his cognition, Su Qing actually followed him in the state of soul after death, how is this possible!And...why?

The system said: "This question should only be known to the person concerned."

Ye Shu sat on the edge of the bed in a daze, staring blankly at the front. He kept this posture and sat motionless for a long time.

After a long time, he came back to his senses, raised his wrist subconsciously, and found that more than an hour had passed.

Su Qing still stayed in the bathroom and did not come out, Ye Shu hurriedly stood up and walked outside the bathroom door.

The water in the bathroom was rattling, endlessly, as if it would not stop until the water was drained.

At this time, Ye Shu suddenly thought of a terrible thing that he had ignored.

Without further hesitation, he gathered his strength and slammed into the bathroom door.

The bathroom door was slammed against the wall by a huge force, making a "bang" sound.

Then Ye Shu saw the scene in the bathroom.

Su Qing hugged her body with her hands and crouched by the corner, her black hair was soaked by the dripping water and stuck to her face, her exposed skin was red and torn, with red blood streaks.

As if Su Qing didn't see Ye Shu, he lowered his head and mechanically rubbed his hands vigorously on his body. Soon the already red skin became even redder, even visible to the naked eye, a small piece of thin The thin skin was rubbed off, and the blood immediately gushed out like a column of blood.

"Su Qing, stop!" Ye Shu's eyes were about to burst, and she hurried over to stop Su Qing from abusing herself like this.

Su Qing seemed to pause for a moment, then raised his head, shrank back as if he had just discovered Ye Shu's existence, and at the same time, the strength in his hands became heavier.

"Dirty, it's too dirty, you have to wash it to clean it, it's too dirty..." Su Qing murmured while vigorously rubbing her body.

"No, not dirty, not dirty at all." Ye Shu pulled Su Qing's hand away, glanced at the bruised body, and gasped for breath.

"How could it not be dirty..." Su Qing said in a trance, as if some fragment flashed in his mind, making him struggle violently.

Suddenly, his thin body burst out with great strength, almost throwing Ye Shu away.

"He wants to remember." The system said.

"What should I do?" Ye Shu was in a state of confusion, hugging Su Qing who was constantly struggling, he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

"Knock him out," the system said.

"No!" Ye Shu refused.

"Already dizzy." The system's icy mechanical voice fluctuated a little again, well, the action was too fast.

Ye Shu didn't care about anything with the system, and looked at Su Qing who was lying in his arms with a pale face, with a silent expression on his face.

He carried him to the bed and carefully applied the medicine.

His fingertips trembled a little, he just felt that everything was in a mess and he couldn't solve it.

All the good and bad memories were intertwined, and Ye Shu felt a tightness in his chest, as if he was crushed by a boulder.

What is the significance of his comeback? Even if the time goes back, the person he wants to protect is still hurt badly.

What made him even more unacceptable was that he only realized later that he was the one who hurt Su Qing the most.

how so…

Ye Shu smiled lowly, not knowing whether he felt ironic or powerless, he slowly tightened Su Qing's hand, but he quickly let go of it the next moment he came to his senses.

Staring at Su Qing's face, Ye Shu couldn't help but become far-sighted when he thought of the previous questioning.

He still remembers to this day that although his mood was quite complicated at the time, among the thousands of thoughts, he did not despise this emotion alone.

How could he dislike Su Qing? He didn't even have time to take her home.

It was just that he was too shocked at the time, and he didn't know how to face that situation, so he chose to leave.

Ye Shu was stunned until the fainted man uttered painful ravings.

Su Qing was sweating profusely, her eyes were closed tightly, and she was holding the bed sheet with both hands, as if she was enduring some great pain.

"Su Qing, Su Qing..." Ye Shu called anxiously.

"Caught in a nightmare, do you want to know what he dreamed about?" the system asked.

"What should I do?" Ye Shu half-knelt by the bed, resting her fingertips on Su Qing's lips to prevent him from biting herself.

The system said: "Lie down."

Ye Shu lay down next to Su Qing without hesitation, and what she saw when she closed her eyes was Su Qing's increasingly pale face.

Black, the eyes are all endless black.

Ye Shu couldn't see anything, he raised his hands and groped around, the surroundings were empty, countless silences came, and the tide seemed to completely submerge him.

He wandered aimlessly, from one darkness to another.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, suddenly, he heard a sound, which was very subtle but could not be ignored.

The closer you get, the more familiar the voice becomes.

Ye Shu gradually stopped in his tracks, and a teasing voice with a smile came into his ears—you call me brother, and I'll give you the candy, okay?

This is... Ye Shu's complexion changed slightly, his head was dizzy, and when he woke up again, his eyes were still black, but compared to the endless blackness without a trace of light, the darkness at this moment is still mixed with some light, but It was still hazy around.

Ye Shu was walking around as usual, and he didn't know where he was, when a blurred figure appeared in front of his eyes.

The portrait looks a bit tall, and the face is not very clear, but Ye Shu always feels a little familiar, and there is a feeling that he can't describe.

He didn't know why he felt familiar until the figure suddenly spoke.

"Shall I take you out for a walk? This world is very beautiful, and you will like it."

This is his voice, and this is what he once said!

Ye Shu stood there blankly looking at the blurred portrait, and suddenly had a guess in his heart.

The familiar dizziness struck again, this time Ye Shu didn't have time to look at the surrounding environment, and strode forward directly, and it didn't take long for him to meet that portrait again.

It's just that this portrait is clearer than before, and the faint eyebrows are revealed.

"What's your name? Is Lin Hechao your brother?"

It was his voice again, and Ye Shu stood where he was, the guess in his heart was confirmed. What he was in now was actually Su Qing's inner world.

The surrounding darkness was dispelled by the faint white light, leaving only some corners still standing firm.

Ye Shu's eyes blurred, and when he came back to his senses again, he was already in an environment completely enveloped by white light.

In front of him, a man was looking at "him" tenderly.The man's cold brows and eyes were extremely gentle, and he looked at "him" with a smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "Come with me, please, I want to take you to a very beautiful place."

"You ignore me? Forget it, I'll go by myself." The man still had a deliberate smile in his eyes.

Not long after that, his face changed again, and he was flustered: "Don't cry, don't cry, I won't leave."

"You don't believe me?" The man touched his nose in distress, and said with a serious face after a while: "I swear, I won't lie to you, I won't leave you."

As he spoke, he seemed to pause for a moment, as if he had thought of something, and continued: "Of course, if I leave you, it doesn't mean that I won't come back. I may have to leave temporarily because I have something to do. you."

"You just have to wait for me for a month, which is 30 days."

When he said this, he seemed to be afraid that people would not understand and raised his finger. "You look at the sun. It takes one day from its emergence to its descent. You only need to watch it rise and fall thirty times. I'll come back to find you."

The man seemed to be talking with his head down, and the white light on his body was shining brightly, as if the warm sun was hitting him, his whole body was shining brightly.

"So I am such an existence in Su Qing's eyes?" Ye Shu said.

The only light in the darkness is also the light that dispels all darkness.

It seems that after he appeared, the dark heart was gradually illuminated by the sun and ushered in the light.

Ye Shu smiled shyly, all kinds of ups and downs came to his heart, and suddenly he didn't want to watch it anymore.

But as soon as the picture in front of him changed, the scene changed again. A man turned his back to him and walked away slowly. In a trance, he seemed to hear someone sobbing and whispering: "Brother"

Then the light that filled the eyes gradually disappeared, and the overwhelming black mist swept in, slowly swallowing the last ray of light.

Ye Shu turned around as if feeling something, and saw a familiar figure standing in a sea of ​​flames, staring at him and smiling foolishly.

A thin black line separates the two of them. One side is a sea of ​​fire and the other side is darkness. They cannot blend and cannot be crossed.

"Su Qing!" Ye Shu was blocked by an invisible screen, and could only watch helplessly as the figure was swallowed by the fierce flames.

A black object rolled over and just stopped at Ye Shu's feet.

Ye Shu looked down, and could vaguely tell from the burnt surface that it was a piece of melted crystal sugar.

Looking up again, the eyes are barren and pitch-black. The once magnificent villa has become crumbling, unable to see its true colors
