The great monk failed to rescue Bai Er, but he won Bai Yi a chance to visit the prison, and then he hinted that Bai Yi would take the money with peace of mind, and Bai Yi gave him another sum, which was enough for the big monk to squander for 20 years. He does not invest indiscriminately.

He had just received a call to confirm the time of the prison visit, when another call came in suddenly.

This time it was not human voices that rang in Bai Yi's ears.

It's the mechanical sound that I hear every time I complete a task. The pronunciation is standard, but it's not a human voice when I hear it.

After waiting for so long, the mission finally arrived.

But Boyi didn't care about the mission anymore. He even thought that he might be dead. This was just his imaginary world and imaginary mission, just like the legendary revolving lantern that people will see when they die.

So the task doesn't seem that important.

The mechanical sound is over.

Bai Yi froze on the spot, still holding the receiver in his hand. He thought he heard it wrong, but the mission would not be released a second time. He didn't have a mobile phone, so he couldn't check the mission text messages.

"I won't listen to you." Boyi stood where he was, and said indifferently, "Not only this time, but every time in the future, I won't listen again. If you get angry, just kill me."

"What did he do wrong?"

"Why does he deserve to die? Why do those corrupt officials who take advantage of the common people and those Japanese who don't care about human lives survive?"

Bai Yi was holding the receiver tightly, the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, he hadn't tasted anger for a long, long time.

Bai Yi cursed in a low voice: "Fuck you."

"Master Bo!" The donkey ran in, without looking at Bai Yi's face, he said hastily, "The talks with the Japanese in the capital have collapsed, and there will be a fight in SIPG soon! The Japanese bought it from the United States." Boom|The bomber is coming!"

The situation is changing rapidly, one moment the singing and dancing are peaceful, the next moment hell on earth.

The donkey: "Second Master Bai can't be rescued! We have to leave now!"

Bai Yi was very calm, he stood there, motionless, his eyes were as calm as a deep well: "You go, I'm going to visit the prison."

The donkey's eyes widened in surprise: "Young Master Bai, let's take the money to sea, no matter whether we go abroad or to other places, we can make a comeback! The second master certainly doesn't want you to stay here!"

"Master Bai! Aren't you afraid of death?!"

Bai Yi thought for a while: "It's nothing to be afraid of."

He explained plainly: "When you leave, take the young ladies and young masters of the Bai family with you. I prepared a few boxes of gold bars. You take them and share them. Whether you give them or not depends on your conscience."

The poor donkey couldn't believe it and said: "Young Master Bai, the second master told me to protect your safety before he went in. Although I'm just a bastard, I also know what I promise, you can't..."

Bai Yi: "I can."

The donkey stopped talking, and Boyi asked him to follow him to the cellar in the yard, where he smashed the gold bars into suitcases and filled them with six suitcases: "You guys go now, you don't need to pack your things, and you can buy new ones when you get there." .”

Bai Yi has no feelings for Bai Er's brothers and sisters, he has found a way out for them, and Bai Yi will not be in charge of how they live in the future.

Bai Yi thought he would be angry, but when he was angry to the extreme, he was calm. He felt that he had never been so calm, and his mind had never been so clear.

Before, he was not against completing tasks. He knew that he had to pay for what he got, unless he was stronger than the other party. However, it was obvious that he was not as powerful as the "human" or "AI" who issued the task. He was just a puppet in the hands of the other party. .

Although it doesn't sound very nice, Boyi doesn't object, as long as it allows him to achieve his goal, he doesn't care.

But now, he doesn't feel that way anymore, he has invested in his feelings, so what he thought was unimportant in the past has become important.

He has never been sorry to anyone. He disguised himself layer by layer to show others a "perfect" person, perfect son, perfect student, perfect entrepreneur, and perfect successful entrepreneur.

There is no trace of stain on his body, he has never had any scandals, he does not drink too much, he has no special hobbies, and he does not even smoke in formal occasions.

He used to think that there was nothing wrong with such a life, but now he feels it is boring.

Day after day, year after year, all passions are obliterated by time, love and hate are too far away from him.

He has never been "crazy", not even in his student days, even in the recognized rebellious period, he has never had such an experience.

But he is willing to "crazy" once, as for the consequences, he no longer thinks about it, and puts all gains and losses behind him, no matter what the result is, he can face it calmly.

He has always been a "selfless" person, but this time he wants to be selfish again.

When he left the Bai mansion, he gave the rest of the money to these servants who had worked in the Bai mansion for almost half their lives, and let them find their own way out, no matter where they went.

He himself got into the car and went to the prison.

When getting into the car, Bai Yi looked up at the sky.

Dark clouds are gathering, and the dark sky seems to soon be overwhelmed and overwhelming.

But Bai Yi knew that this was just the darkness before dawn.

It's just the dawn of dawn, he can't see it anymore, neither can Bai Er.

When sending the Bai family away, he thought that he and Bai Er would leave here soon, and they would go to a relatively safe place to build a factory. They could live for a long time, until Jianguo was established, and they could only walk with crutches. Tell others what an amazing time they have lived through.

Boyi got into the car, and the driver would take him to the prison, then drive the car to the pier, and board the boat with the donkey.

Everyone wants to live.

Martial law has been imposed in SIPG. Civilians are not allowed to leave their homes. No one knows when a fight will break out. The streets are so quiet that no one can be seen. Only Japanese soldiers can be seen. They don’t care about the people on this land, they only care about here The port here is an area.

People can move here, but land cannot move away.

The prison is also guarded by guards, and all the prisoners inside have been executed, and the only ones that are still closed are those who are still valuable like Bai Er.

The guard was obviously absent-minded. He let Boyi in and didn't lead the way. After telling him the area, he asked Boyi to find it by himself.

The prison was dark and damp, and the lights were not turned on during the day, so it was as dark as dusk inside.

Bai Yi felt that the ground under his feet was sticky, as if someone had poured a whole bottle of Coke on it and walked on it after it dried up.

The cell was very empty. He followed the direction pointed by the guards and walked for 10 minutes before arriving at the cell where Bai Er was held.

Bai Yi stood at the corner of the aisle, looking at Bai Er lying on the bed from a distance. Bai Er was haggard a lot, but he was not physically abused. He leaned against the wall, holding a book in his hand, Just look at the light outside the iron window.

From this angle, Bai Yi could see Bai Er's pale face, straight nose, and thin, bloodless lips.

Just like when they first met.

Near nostalgia timid.

Bai Yi suddenly couldn't move, he didn't know how to tell Bai Er that he couldn't save him.

And the Japanese and the capital are about to fight.

Bai Yi stepped out of the shadows.

Bai Er raised his head as if aware of it, and the eyes of the two seemed to penetrate time and space, overlapping together.

"You're here." Bai Er smiled at Bai Yi.

Bai Yi suddenly relaxed, and said with a smile: "Well, it's a bit late, you know it's not easy to sign the visiting documents."

Bai Er looked at Bai Yi carefully, as if he was seeing Bai Yi for the last time.

Bai Yi suddenly didn't want to say a word.

If a ship is in port, it is not necessary to proceed.

It was Bai Er who asked, "What's going on outside?"

"The conversation between the capital and the Japanese has collapsed." Bai Yi stood outside the iron fence, and Bai Er got up from the bed and walked to Bai Yi.

There is only an iron fence between them, but it seems to separate the two worlds.

Bai Yi: "Maybe this place will be bombed soon, but I don't know if it's the Japanese plane or the one from the capital."

Bai Er's expression changed: "What do you mean? Where's the donkey?"

Bai Yi said calmly: "I asked him to take your younger brothers and sisters away, no matter where you go, overseas or domestic, as long as it is safe."

Bai Er frowned: "What do you mean? You won't go with me?"

Bai Yi smiled and shook his head, his smile extended to the end of his eyes, he didn't even realize that he was smiling: "I won't go."

Bai Er's expression suddenly turned ferocious, he raised his voice, and roared furiously: "Do you know what you are doing?! You go now! Go to the pier! There is a boat there! Let the donkey find you a boat! "

"What the hell do you want to do? I can't leave! Do you want to die too?!"

Bai Yi looked at Bai Er calmly: "This is not called death."

Bai Er looked up at him.

Bai Yi said, "This is called martyrdom."

Bai Yi laughed again: "Isn't it very romantic?"

Bai Er calmed down, and he said: "Listen to me, Bai Yi, you don't owe me anything, even if you want to repay what I did for you before, you don't have to pay with your life. You are very young, as long as you leave , you can do whatever you want."

"Whether you want to be a teacher or build a factory, you can do whatever you want. All my property belongs to you, and you are free."

Bai Yi: "Put your hands on the iron bars."

Bai Er didn't move.

Bai Yi smiled and said, "This may be the last time we meet."

Bai Er put his hands on the iron railing, and the two separated the cell, their palms touching.

Bai Yi's eyebrows and eyes were gentle: "I don't think freedom is a good thing. If I were a kite, I would need someone on the ground to hold the string."

"And my thread is always in your hands."

Bai Er looked at him indifferently: "So, I have to thank you for willing to accompany me to die?"

"I'm just making fun of you, do you really think I'm in love with you?"

The smile on Bai Yi's face did not diminish.

There was a loud noise outside, the ground shook a few times, and sand and gravel fell from the top of the head.

Bai Er: "I'll let you go! Don't you understand?!"

Bai Yi: "Are you sure you want to say this at this time?"

"I don't know what will happen this time." Bai Yi said suddenly, he didn't care if Bai Er could understand, "After all, every time before, I left after completing the task, but this time I will be with you Walk."

Bai Yi was as relaxed as if he had unloaded a heavy burden: "I feel very tired after doing this again and again, maybe this time is a relief."

It was the first time that Bai Yi felt so relaxed. He had never thought of relief before, because he didn't feel sad.

Bai Yi: "Actually, I have never understood why you love me, because I have helped you? Or because I have made you feel safe? There is always a reason."

He doesn't feel that he deserves to be loved at all, because he never thought about being loved.

The frequency of earthquakes became more and more frequent, and the sound of bombing outside became louder and closer, and no one cared about the people in the prison anymore.

Bai Er looked at Bai Yi silently.

Bai Yi: "There should be no next time."

They stared at each other, neither looking away.

Bai Er suddenly said, "I think I've always known you."

"The moment I saw you, it was as if someone whispered in my ear that it was this person."

"So you don't owe me."

Bai Er: "You can still go now."

Bai Yi raised his head and looked at the cracked ceiling and the falling sand, gravel and cement blocks. There were fine gravel falling on his body and head, making his tidy appearance slowly become messy, and Bai Er was the same .

Everyone wears different clothes, they are in different classes, only this time, when the danger comes, after taking off the painted skin, they are all the same.

In fact, he has never really understood why he wanted to be an "excellent" person. At first, he just thought that he would gain benefits by doing so, and he could be a fish in water in different fields. He is good at dealing with people.

But after a long time, those actions that he thought would benefit him became his instinct.

And he didn't know what he wanted.

Success brought him less and less joy and stimulation, and people's pursuit did not make him feel happy.

He just wears a mask, observing everything like a bystander, and doesn't want to be one of them.

Outside the prison, there were constant flames and constant noise.

Bai Yi felt as if he heard the scream, but he didn't seem to hear it.

Bai Er: "Do you know what I regret the most?"

Bai Yi looked at him, waiting for him to say something.

Bai Er said with a grim expression: "The night you promised me, I should have fucked you."

Bai Yi couldn't help laughing out loud: "That's right, I agree."

When the prison was blown up, Bai Yi closed his eyes subconsciously. At this moment, he and Bai Er had nothing to say, they just quietly waited for the last moment to come.

The flames shot up into the sky, dispelling the darkness that hung over the city.

Numerous buildings collapsed, ruins and rubble were everywhere, and people were crying and running.

The end of one era, the beginning of another.

This time, Bai Yi didn't hear the notification that the task was completed.

He has been working hard for an unknown future all his life, and he is finally willful once.

He thought of Zhang Ailing's love in a city, the fall and destruction of a city, which made an ordinary love story.

Before losing consciousness, he felt very relaxed.

Everything that was on my shoulders disappeared.

Just leave him alone, without any added value.

He heard Bai Er say: "I dragged you down."

He wants to answer: "It's okay, I love you."

But he couldn't answer it.

Shattered masonry poured down.

They are just like other people in this city, no matter what class they were in or what status they had before, after a few years, among the living population, they are only one of them who died in the bombing of SIPG.
