autumn sunshine

So, when we counted the money we earned in two days, we found out tragically that no one was interested in trying to compete with Xiaojie on the third day.The poster that was glamorous a few days ago now looks abnormally bleak.When he was in distress, Qi Ya heard that maybe he could go to the underworld to try his luck, such as accepting some tasks issued by the underworld, he could earn a little in the short term, and maybe he could receive tasks worth hundreds of millions.

I know that the task that Qi Ya mentioned is probably similar to the one done by the killer.I was wondering and wanted to ask at the same time, but seeing Xiaojie who was one step closer to agreeing to me, I thought about it and shut up. There are many things I can’t draw conclusions from my own imagination, and Xiaojie has his own Judging, even if he really chooses to kill such a terrible thing, then he must have made some kind of preparation in his heart at that time, but no matter what the reason, his hands will not be clean again.

Xiaojie: "Qi Ya, that means you can get money if you catch those people on the mission?"

Qi Ya: "...you are right..."

...One couldn't help laughing, I really thought too much, Xiaojie's concept is just to catch people.The tense and gloomy mood just now relaxed a lot, but as we grow up, as we get closer and closer to the dangerous center, we can really smile and say "just grab it" as cleanly as we are now Is it?

I don't know what will happen to Xiaojie, but I am not anymore!I still remember the scene in the trap tower, and I still remember the sticky feeling of blood on my hands. Even though the blood was not red, the sticky feeling couldn't be ignored.If possible, I really hope Young-jae never tries and faces these.

I was holding the wanted list in my hand, with a big "SS" written on it, and the words "Phantom Brigade" right below it were also very clear.This is everyone's current understanding of the Phantom Troupe. It is so simple that there is only one portrait, and then there is nothing, the portrait is still blurred, and all abilities are unknown.

Me: "Kiya, I don't think the Phantom Troupe is something we can deal with now."

Qi Ya: "Of course not to deal with them, we just need to collect some information about them and sell them to the gangsters."

Me: "...After so many readings, I think you are not the only one who thinks about this problem, but the information you give now has nothing. What does this mean? Those who know something may be dead."

Qi Ya: "I know, I don't plan to meet them, we can sell information, such as their current location, and we don't participate in other things."

I didn't answer Qi Ya again, but turned to look at Xiaojie, since Xiaojie looked at the wanted list in his hand just now, he didn't speak.This gave me a bad feeling.Sure enough, after feeling my sight for a while, Xiaojie said, "Just them, maybe they can help Kulabika."

... I actually forgot about this dangerous element, damn it!Kulabika has unilaterally cut off all contact since the last contact. I always thought that Xiaojie would let go temporarily.I should have guessed it a long time ago, how could it be possible?really……

I quietly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart, maybe when things have happened as expected, I feel at ease instead.Maybe subconsciously, I still feel uneasy about Kulabika.

Me: "Then let's do it."

Qi Ya: "Hey! You bastard, I just said that you didn't want to for a long time. Xiaojie agreed as soon as I said it! Really..."

I smiled and pointed to one of the wanted lists, and changed the subject: "There is a person here that I may have seen."

Qi Ya, Xiaojie said in horror: "What!! You have seen it, which one?"

I pointed to the person on the image whose face was covered with only a pair of golden eyes, "This." Then I looked at the other wanted lists, "Maybe there are two other people who are not listed here. .”

That's right, the first person I recognized was one of those three strange and dangerous people I had noticed while handing out flyers.I am very fortunate that the natural environment of Whale Island has allowed me to practice some instinctive judgments about danger. No one knows how terrifying my heart was when I first saw this image, and I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat.

After several discussions, Leorie and I will be the backup support, while Xiaojie and Qi Ya will be responsible for tracking and collecting intelligence.Maybe the information I said last time is useful, the four of us recently searched near the place where the three people appeared last time, and we actually came across them.

It was an afternoon, and the four of us were exchanging information while eating cold drinks.In just a moment, Qi Ya judged that the two people not far away were the members of the Phantom Troupe we were looking for. The strength of the two spiders made his body a little stiff.I have some awareness, and I also seem to be incapable of feeling a little bit. Although the other party has restrained very well, I can still intuitively detect a trace of the bloody feeling.I just wanted to ask Qi Ya to give up this action, when I heard Qi Ya's voice had recovered, he continued this action decisively, and then turned to look at me.

Qi Ya: "Your breath has changed a bit, pay attention...don't be afraid."

Maybe it's because I just noticed the danger that made me a little nervous unconsciously. At this time, even a slight change in breath may cause the other party to notice.Qi Ya noticed that the phrase "don't be afraid" seemed to have magical powers. It was such a dangerous moment, but I miraculously relaxed a little bit, as if something was quietly emerging from the bottom of my heart, little by little. Breaking my calm lake, the dangerous and tense atmosphere seemed to suddenly become a blockbuster movie, away from me, becoming no longer real, only the worried face in front of me was imprinted on my eyelids inside.A smile appeared on my nervous face, and I thought maybe something should be done now, at least to reassure those who have noticed this corner of us.

I looked back at Qi Ya tenderly, even my voice became soft unconsciously, my smile seemed to freeze, the summer sun refracted into the eyes of the boy opposite me, softening the already beautiful face, white The soft hair was dyed a little golden yellow, and I was able to see myself smiling in his eyes. This feeling is not bad.

Me: "Hi ~ Qi Ya." And thank you.

Silently said thank you with his mouth, I think he can hear it.

The small episode was just for a moment, and the plan was still implemented as before.It's just that I didn't know that this brief separation would cause them to fall into such a terrifying trap.

On the night of our separation, Leorio and I were not waiting for Xiaojie and Qiya at the reserved place, and the two of them could not be reached by phone.The uneasiness in my heart began to grow gradually. In this strange city, we are still novice hunters and we don't know how to ask for help.Helplessness and confusion are constantly attacking me, who can I think of?By the way, Kulabica, maybe he knows something, Leorio also thought of it immediately, but neither he nor I got through to Kulabica.

A cold feeling hits my whole body, obviously we were still together in the afternoon, I even had a petty quarrel with Qi Ya, but now my life or death is unknown.

I told Leorio that I planned to follow the direction they left in the afternoon to see if there were any clues, so I separated from Leorio, and he was in charge of contacting Kulabica.

The summer nights are not very hot, and it is even a bit cold for me now, but I don’t know whether the coldness is from the heart or the body.The traces are not easy to find, and some traces seem to have been deliberately destroyed.I frowned and saw a destroyed track again, which was man-made, so that means that we encountered more than two spiders today, at least three, two were used as bait, and one was responsible for anti-tracking.Just, why?It stands to reason why the spider took so much time and effort to make this trap. This trap is obviously to catch someone, who to catch?That is, it cannot be killed, so at least Xiaojie and Qiya are safe for today.

what to do?There is only one day, and my strength is completely incapable of fighting against spiders. Even if I find Xiaojie and Qiya, what should I do?Who do I turn to for help?The only person I can think of besides Kulabika is Master Yungu, but how did Master Yungu save Jinhuo from far away in the sky, so I can only hope that Master Yungu can lend me some strength through the Hunter Association.I hid in a corner with my mobile phone and dialed Master Yungu.

When I first heard Master Yungu's voice, there was a miraculous voice not far away, and I listened carefully that it was Qi Ya's voice.This is... I escaped by myself?

In my ears, Master Yungu still had questions, but I stayed where I was for a while. The thrill of the afternoon made my heart a little overwhelmed.I calmed down, and told Master Yun Gu about the general situation, and was scolded without any suspense. He told us not to touch anything related to the Phantom Troupe, at least not now.

I hung up Master Yungu's phone and didn't move, my calm mood continued. I leaned my back against the corner wall and looked up at the waning moon in the sky.

... Who am I working hard for, who am I busy with!

"Who is there?"

Qi Ya's vigilant voice sounded a few meters away, and I realized that after I relaxed, I actually withdrew the handle, "It's me, Migal."

Qi Ya: "Migal?"

I lazily leaned against the wall, the shadow blocked the line of sight between me and him, making the surroundings blurry and unclear, "I'm running out of strength, can you help me?"

It wasn't until now that I realized that I couldn't even exert strength on my feet. After all the previous tension, worry and fear were taken away, all that remained was deep tiredness.

Qi Ya didn't speak, I heard his footsteps coming, closed my eyes and felt his hand on my arm.I put all my strength on his side and barely stood up straight.

Qi Ya: "...Do you want me to carry you?"

Xiaojie: "Migal, are you okay?"

Me: "Ah...it's okay, I'm just a little exhausted."

Xiaojie: "...I'm sorry, Migal must be very worried."

Me: "Ah, I'm a little worried. You don't need to say sorry, it's better than anything else when you come back safely."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but as I was talking, I suddenly felt some itchy eyes, and I raised my hand to rub it, but I forgot that my hand was being supported by Qi Ya, and Ben's legs were weak when he pulled it. I fell down in an instant.

Time is like a slow motion, I watched the hands in front of me stretch out slowly, passed my eyes, and stretched towards my waist, time was frozen, when I felt those powerful hands .

Tears fell suddenly when it stopped, I looked at myself in Qi Ya's eyes, those sea blue eyes were full of tears.

"Sorry! I was so scared that I cried..."

I looked at Qi Ya and said with a smile, but the corners of my mouth were obviously bent but I couldn't stop the unstoppable tears.I laughed and cried too.I think this look is really ugly to see home.

Qi Ya didn't say anything, but the other hand that wasn't holding my waist slowly pressed my head, my sight suddenly darkened, and there was a trace of refreshing smell from the boy's body on the nostrils. It also has the sweetness of chocolate with bits and pieces.

The arrival of darkness oppressed my last sanity, I hugged Qiya tightly, and the crying became louder and louder, echoing continuously in this remote corner.
