"Squeak..."

At three o'clock in the middle of the night, there was a sound of a door opening in a brightly lit room somewhere in the silent village, followed by a tall figure pacing to the open door.

He raised his eyes to look at the gentle young man who was sitting at the table pouring tea while the lights were flickering, his thin lips were lightly pursed, and his eyes were as deep as a bottomless pool.

The other party seemed to be aware of it, paused for a while while holding the teapot, and then continued to pour tea as if nothing had happened.

After he finished drinking a cup of tea, he didn't see anyone coming, so he pretended to look at the door in a daze, and pretended to be pleasantly surprised: "What a rare visitor! Can't you sleep, Qihe?"

Lou Qihe's eyes were heavy, staring at him without blinking.

He didn't intend to respond at all, Zhou Baiyan didn't feel embarrassed, he took the cup and poured another cup of tea, gracefully and slowly placed it on the opposite side of the table, he made a gesture of invitation, slightly tilted his head to look at Lou Qihe , invited: "Have a cup of tea together?"

A sneer appeared from the corner of Lou Qihe's mouth: "Don't dare."

Zhou Baiyan took a sip of tea and smiled lightly: "What? Afraid I'll be poisoned?"

Lou Qihe leaned against the door frame slowly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and couldn't deny the words.

"You said it would be nice for you to stay in that dilapidated bookstore forever!" Zhou Baiyan folded his hands on his chin, his brows and eyes were slightly curved, and he said with a smile: "Wouldn't it be nice to live alone and stay away from the abuse of netizens?"

This sentence contains a lot of information, Lou Qihe's heart moved slightly, his face was half hidden, and he said in a cold voice: "I am also a person who needs to make a living."

"Isn't it enough to have that dilapidated bookstore?" Zhou Baiyan asked back: "Pay off the debt slowly, isn't it more than enough to support yourself?"

There was still a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes gradually turned cruel.

Lou Qihe remained silent, but it was his silence that deeply hurt Zhou Baiyan's eyes.

"So, you did all of those, didn't you?" After a few seconds of silence, Lou Qihe suddenly asked softly.

Zhou Baiyan didn't expect him to be so straightforward, he was stunned for a while when asked, then suddenly raised his hand to cover his eyes, a crazy smile gradually overflowed from his lips.

"Don't you understand the principle of seeing through and not telling the truth?" He quickly suppressed his smile, turned to look at Lou Qihe calmly, and said, "Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to meet in the future! Just like now, right?"

Lou Qihe was calmer than him, his eyes didn't even show any emotion, as if he didn't pay attention to these things or him at all.

"You've already got the best, haven't you?" Lou Qihe suddenly moved his eyes up, looking at the dark night sky, his voice was low and without any fluctuation, "A rich family, a high-quality object," He looked back at Zhou Baiyan who was stunned, and lowered his voice: "Besides, you are excellent."

"I'm excellent?" Zhou Baiyan muttered to himself, and suddenly burst out laughing, "I'm excellent, yes, I'm excellent!"

"But..." His voice changed sharply, and his voice suddenly became sharp.

When Lou Qihe looked at him, he suddenly lowered his voice, and said in a low voice, "But, who made you the protagonist?"

"But who made you the protagonist of this world?" He suddenly cupped his hands and covered his face, his voice was dull, as if he was enduring extreme pain, "I didn't even think about it at first, but I'm going to die! I don't Do it and I'll die!"

"All, all, I did all of this!" Zhou Baiyan was clearly on the verge of collapse, and his whole body seemed to go crazy, "I was the one who wanted to kill you and Jiang Yunchuan."

Lou Qihe tilted his head and just looked at him like this, his brows and eyes drooping slightly, his gaze as calm as water.

"You have obviously given up and gone back to your dilapidated bookstore. Why do you still show up? Once you show up, all my hard work these years will be in vain!"

"It's all in vain!" he said hysterically.

"I never said to give up." Lou Qihe calmly continued his words, "I have been looking for opportunities for so many years."

"But you still haven't found it?" Zhou Baiyan suddenly calmed down again, and sneered, "I used to have a way to make you scolded by everyone, but now I still have a way."

Lou Qihe shook his head slowly, and sighed, "No, you have no choice, or you have no chance."

"Didn't you notice that the energy of that thing on your body is getting weaker and weaker?" He smiled lightly and said, "It can't help you anymore."

"What, what?" Zhou Baiyan's pupils shrank suddenly, and he said in disbelief: "You, how do you know?"

Lou Qihe answered irrelevant questions, and said to himself: "Since I was hacked, there have been out-of-context videos on the Internet, so-called witness and material evidence, and those netizens who have been controlling the direction of public opinion," he looked down. Zhou Baiyan, whose face was flickering under the light and couldn't see clearly, said softly, "It's all from your hands, isn't it?"

"Since I became popular on the Internet, I counterattacked your last wave of hackers, the things on your body." Lou Qihe paused, and continued: "It should be said to be the system."

He didn't look at Zhou Baiyan who was terrified after he said this word, and continued: "That time your system suffered a serious backlash and lost a lot of energy."

"It was also at that time that you realized that hacking us on the Internet was of little use anymore, because netizens no longer believed it."

"That's why you later tried every means to injure us. First, the five-step snake whose poison was diluted by the potion, then the piano that was destroyed and about to fall apart, and then the skating rink that is out of control today."

"But do you know that if the protagonist dies, the world will collapse, and you will still die." Lou Qihe said casually, his tone gradually slowing down, "You have lost your mind, you are too impulsive."

"Do I know?" Zhou Baiyan smiled miserably, "How could I not know, if you didn't push me too hard, I wouldn't do it."

Lou Qihe: "..."

Lou Qihe: "But we didn't do anything wrong. You gave us all the innocent disasters we suffered, didn't we?"

"Then what can I do?" Zhou Baiyan hugged his own head suddenly, and said in pain, "If I don't plunder your luck, I will die, I will die!"

"You..." Lou Qihe considered his vocabulary, "Aren't you from this world?"

Now that he has nothing to hide, Zhou Baiyan gradually calmed down when Lou Qihe asked him this question.

"Don't you think it's incredible to travel through time?" He said with a chuckle, as if he was talking about a normal thing.

Lou Qihe looked calm and did not speak.

"Your world is nothing more than a novel to us, and I traveled here because of a car accident."

"I thought that if I wore this person, I would be able to live another life as long as I obeyed the person's design, but how could there be no price for resurrection?"

"Fortunately, my price is just to do the task. You must know my task. It is to plunder the luck of the protagonist. If I fail to complete it, I will die again."

"Why should I die again when I still have a chance to live? So I said yes to it."

"It was really easy and simple at the beginning. As long as you get luck from the malicious system of the people around you, it will exchange for many beneficial things for me."

"And you're just an ordinary person, how can you beat us? So our mission went smoothly, so smoothly that you couldn't move a single step outside and could only hide in that small bookstore."

"But, things are impermanent..."

Zhou Baiyan sighed deeply, his eyes were helpless against the current situation, he seemed to have compromised and didn't want to struggle anymore, but deep in his eyes was full of unwillingness.

"Who would have thought you would make a comeback?"

"Being forced into such a situation, I have inexplicably incurred a debt of 500 million yuan," Lou Qihe said in a lukewarm tone, "I have to find out."

"Didn't you find out now?" Zhou Baiyan looked up at him, "I really underestimated you! Lou Qihe."

Lou Qihe shook his head lightly and smiled, "Then have you ever thought about why I fought back so easily?"

He straightened up and looked down at Zhou Baiyan. The cold wind blew a corner of his windbreaker, and the fabric stained the dust on the door frame. Lou Qihe looked down, his eyes showed no emotion at all.

The slightly stunned Zhou Baiyan was also brought back to his senses by the sudden cold wind. He seemed unable to accept it, and seemed not to understand the meaning of the words. , and finally pursed his lips and remained silent.

"What do you mean?" His voice was terribly calm, and his face was clouded by the flickering lights.

Lou Qihe stood quietly for a while, then suddenly raised his voice, but he didn't speak to Zhou Baiyan.

"How long are you going to listen there?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Baiyan suddenly stood up in shock, and knocked over the teacup on the table during the movement, a piece of tea overflowed, dripping on his trousers and on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the crisp sound of porcelain breaking suddenly sounded in the silent night, but the instigator who caused this situation was unaware and looked at the door nervously.

After Lou Qihe said this, he became silent again, but shifted his gaze to a dark corner in the yard, the distance was not too far or too close, just enough to hear them clearly.

"Who else did you bring here?" Zhou Baiyan didn't see anyone, but he concluded that Lou Qihe had brought someone here secretly. He was nervous for a while, and then suddenly remembered that he still had the cheat of the system, and his expression almost recovered in an instant. , sneered and said: "Even if you bring someone with you? As long as I have the system, you can't bring me down."

"Then what about me?" Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a clear voice sounded as if immersed in icy water.

Zhou Baiyan's eyes widened suddenly, his heart tightened suddenly, and the next moment he began to convulse uncontrollably, and his face became pale because of this, without any trace of blood.

With a gloomy face, Yao Mingchen walked out of the darkness slowly, and walked to the door step by step. He was still holding the mobile phone with the screen in his hand, and the veins on the back of his hand were bulging because he tried his best to hold back the overwhelming anger. of a call record.

He nodded slightly at Lou Qihe, and after getting a response, he turned his head to look at Zhou Baiyan who seemed to be nailed there in a half-shocked state.

Yao Mingchen was silent for a long time, with various complicated emotions flashing in his eyes. He had always had a fluke mentality before, secretly hoping that these things were not done by the people around him, but in reality, every one of them was shining brightly. Pointing sharply at Zhou Baiyan, he slapped him hard, loud and sarcastic.

It never occurred to him that the person he has been with for so many years is gentle and modest on the surface, but secretly keeps doing things to frame others, and this other person is still his idol.

"I've called the police."

After saying these words, it was as if a heavy weight of cold lead had finally fallen to the ground in his heart, and Yao Mingchen let out a short and relaxed breath.

His operation was completely unexpected, even Lou Qihe was slightly taken aback, let alone Zhou Baiyan who had been with him for many years.

"You, Yao Mingchen!" These words hit Zhou Baiyan like a bolt from the blue, and he asked loudly, "Why are you calling the police? Why are you calling the police? I'm the person next to your pillow!"

"Then have you ever loved me?" Yao Mingchen looked at him and asked lightly.

Zhou Baiyan suddenly got stuck.

He seemed to want to explain, but he didn't know where to start. His lips trembled, and he said incoherently: "Why, how could I not love you? If I don't love you, how could I, how could I agree to you?"

"But I can't feel it," Yao Mingchen said suddenly, and his voice turned cold instantly, "You promised me, what happened after you promised? You are like giving a dog away every day, just smile at me twice when you are in a good mood, Kick me aside if you're upset."

"When I started appearing on this variety show, I thought you had finally changed, but it turns out that's all there is to it. I'm just a tool for you to deal with Brother Lou and the others!"

"Zhou Baiyan, you are so ruthless!"

Zhou Baiyan opened his mouth, unable to utter a word for a long time, his brain seemed to have lost the ability to think, his legs gave way and he sat down on the chair.

Lou Qihe, who watched the audience silently, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to pat Yao Mingchen's shoulder as a comfort.

Yao Mingchen quickly calmed down the emotions that were about to erupt, smiled bitterly at Lou Qihe, and said apologetically, "Brother Lou, I've noticed it before, but I haven't told you all, I'm sorry."

Lou Qihe shook his head slowly, without any intention of blaming him.

Yao Mingchen lowered his head and smiled, estimated the time and said: "The police are coming soon, you guys, I recorded part of what I just said, and I didn't save some that couldn't be released to the public."

Lou Qihe nodded slightly.

At this time, Zhou Baiyan finally had some reaction. He said in disbelief: "You actually called the police! Yao Mingchen! Besides I never loved you, am I sorry for you?"

"You didn't apologize to me, but you shouldn't hurt anyone." Yao Mingchen took a deep breath and said helplessly.

"Hahaha" Zhou Baiyan burst out laughing suddenly, his previous gentle appearance has long since disappeared, and the shell has faded away, revealing his dark and narrow side.

"What's wrong with me? I'm just here to live!"

"You stole it, you shouldn't live in this world."

Zhou Baiyan stared at them sideways, gradually suppressed his smile, raised his hand to tidy up his shirt, and suddenly said softly: "Do you think a few policemen can catch me?"

Almost in response to his words, the void around him suddenly twisted, and in the blink of an eye, the huge figure had disappeared in the room.

Only the cup of cold tea and the flickering candlelight remained on the table.

Yao Mingchen rushed over almost the moment he disappeared, but unfortunately he didn't even catch a piece of his clothes. He stared blankly at Lou Qihe who didn't say a word, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock Come.

Lou Qihe didn't react at all, facing Yao Mingchen's questioning eyes, he only explained lightly: "Don't worry, he can't escape."

He vaguely heard the sound of vehicles speeding here, and he told Yao Mingchen again: "When the police come, you can hand over the recording to them. I will send you some other things when I go back. You can see if it is useful."

Yao Mingchen nodded blankly, stared at Lou Qihe without blinking, inexplicably had infinite trust in his words, and couldn't even have a trace of doubt.

The night was as cool as water, and police cars woke up the silent night of the village.

When Lou Qihe returned to their small courtyard, he found Jiang Yunchuan standing at the door with his clothes on, waiting for him, his eyes lit up when he saw his figure.

Lou Qihe's eyes gradually showed tenderness, and he walked over quickly. When he held his hand, he realized that there was no temperature at all. He said distressedly, "Why are you standing at the door? You still have a low fever? What should you do if you are cold?"

He almost entered the room with Jiang Yunchuan in his arms, and closed the door with his backhand as soon as he stepped in.

Jiang Yunchuan let his hands be wrapped in warmth, and smiled indifferently, "I want to wait for you to come back soon."

The room was as warm as spring.

In the ruins somewhere far away in the mountains, the LS system randomly threw his host on the dusty ground, and the dust and mist flew up.

"Do you know that you almost ruined my good deed!" The LS system floated in mid-air with a cold tone.

Zhou Baiyan was choked by the dust and coughed, and smiled when he heard this, "Isn't the mission a failure? What good things do you have?"

"Heh." The LS system looked down upon Zhou Baiyan with a superior attitude, "I have gained the trust of Lou Qihe, and he will help me get rid of the control of this world."

At that time, it must absorb the luck of the protagonist. As long as it is stronger than Xiao V, there will be nothing in this world that can withstand it.

"But..." Zhou Baiyan didn't know what to think of, and frowned.

The LS system said impatiently: "When I get out of control, your mission will naturally be cancelled. As long as you don't kill the two of them, you will be alive and well."

Zhou Baiyan's eyes lit up, "Then what do I need to do?"

"You don't need to do anything," the LS system looked at him, "You can just stay here and hide from being discovered during this time, and I will bring the two of them here after a while, do you understand?"

Zhou Baiyan nodded emphatically.
