It was so peaceful, as if everything was as it should be.

I don't know how long it took, but in such a trance, Xu Jinzhi came to an ordinary, even somewhat old building.

Not even a place with an elevator.

She walked up the stairs and came to a door on the fifth floor.

She knocked on a door.

A voice came from inside.

"Come in, Miss Xu."

Xu Jinzhi kicked the small bag and walked in.

When I came to the living room, I saw a middle-aged man in a black trench coat.

He had fine stubble on his chin, and he looked like a middle-aged ordinary man wandering everywhere in this city, running wildly for his livelihood.

He held a string of Buddhist beads in his hand.

At this time, he was standing on the window sill, and there were several pots of green plants planted on the window sill.

It looks quite elegant, like a person who lives in poverty but has elegant taste.

Xu Jinzhi knew that he was not such a person at all.

He has the face of a normal person, but has a heart like a devil.

It seems that I have no right to say that about others, because I seem to have become a devil now... No, it is not even as good as a devil.

"What's the matter, it's here again today, do you want to stop?"

Leaning against the window, the man stroked the string of Buddhist beads in his hand, and looked at Xu Jinzhi, who had obviously become much younger, with a cynical smile.

Although Xu Jinzhi himself has a good foundation, aging and fading are definitely an inevitable process, and the most fatal thing for women is that the days trapped in the kitchen and the bed will pass away as a beautiful woman.

Brighten the spirit of a woman herself.

The temperament affected by that is overall, and it will make her eclipsed.

This is the most irresistible thing.

After all, in order to live, people have to give up a lot, give up youth, give up love, give up dreams, only survival is left.

Xu Jinzhi hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

"No……"

The man smiled, revealing a smile that was as expected.

"Youth is the most irresistible temptation. Now that you have reached this point, no one can give up, so why are you here?"

Seeing the man in front of him completely see through his thoughts, Xu Jinzhi didn't struggle too much.

She knows that the world is constantly changing, and more and more things allow some people to realize dreams that were once out of reach. These dreams seem absurd and nonsensical, but they can be real.

real line of sight.

And one of the greatest illusions about human beings that has never changed since ancient times is that of immortality and eternal youth.

No one can refuse such a temptation, let alone the woman in front of him.

Xu Jinzhi bit his lip, then asked.

"Could it be...the only way to make me young? Must be at the expense of my daughter?"

The man smiled and rubbed the prayer beads in his hand.

"If you want to get something, you must pay. You know the conservation of matter, right? No one can get something for no reason. What you get must be what others lost.

The beekeeper gets honey, and the bees lose honey.

The beasts were protected and raised by the zoo, but they lost their freedom forever.

Countless successful people have gained money and status, but they have lost time.

Celebrities get everything that is glamorous, but they lose the casual and free life of ordinary people.

If you want to gain youth, someone must lose something... You also know that this matter sounds so incredible, so it is not so easy, and it is not easy for anyone who has nothing to do

It may be done, only your closest relatives, only your daughter whose blood is thicker than water, can bring you youth.

And she brought you youth, she will lose youth, this is the most normal exchange.I told you when I made this choice, don't you remember? "

Xu Jinzhi couldn't help but nodded.

Of course she knows, of course she understands.

At the same time, she also clearly knew that her obsession with certain things had reached an almost pathological point.That's why there is such a step.

Things have begun, and now it is over, unwilling and irreversible.

A look of determination appeared in her eyes, and she nodded.

"I know...I know. I want to go faster, I don't want to be tortured anymore."

The man looked at Xu Jinzhi in front of him with a funny face.

"You are the one who wants to gain youth, but why are you being tortured? Is it the torture of conscience?"

Xu Jinzhi didn't answer.

The man nodded.

"Hahaha...It's really interesting. People are probably so selfish and greedy. They obviously want to gain youth, but they are so selfish that they don't even want to bear a trace of guilt...Okay, I will satisfy you."

The man took out a packet of powder from the drawer and threw it on the table.

The man began to press the beads again, and then said calmly.

"The packet of powder is given to her twice a day to speed up the conversion process."

Watching the way the woman came up.

Men don't mind carrying out the devil's deeds more thoroughly.

"You'll be younger sooner, and she'll be older sooner."

Xu Jinzhi looked at the man hesitantly.

"What will she look like when she grows old..."

A cunning flashed in the man's eyes.

"Although matter is conserved, no one has ever been able to achieve this perfectly, so her contribution must be even greater... Well, it may turn white overnight..."

"..."

104-Night Whitehead──────────______________

Dim light.

Room with no lights on.

The slightly humid and occluded air will not make people feel very good.

Of course, in the current situation, it is doomed that the mood will not be much better.

To be honest, Xu Jinzhi's memory has been blurred, and she has begun to not remember what the man who abandoned her in her memory looked like, it was like walking on a road of no return, but after walking

Come on, I even forgot the purpose of going on this road.

It's really ironic to say it.

Looking at a small bag in his hand, which contained yellow powder, the kettle was next to it, on top of the cabinet.

Looking at the kettle with the heat constantly lingering, Xu Jinzhi's eyes were a little hollow. A chopstick was in Xu Jinzhi's hand, stirring the water in a boring and purposeless way, as if forming a huge whirlpool.

Such a vortex seems to be able to suck itself into it.

Xu Jinzhi bit his lip.

I don't know what to think of.

She looked at the living room, where her daughter was sitting on the sofa.

The expression is haggard and expressionless.

After a long silence, and such meaningless actions continued for a long time, she finally opened the medicine bag and poured all the powder into the kettle.

Watching the chopsticks stir the powder and disappear with the clear water.

The struggle on Xu Jinzhi's face didn't last long, it turned into enjoyment and anticipation.

She finally understands that sometimes the human heart is the most unpredictable thing, and many things that seem to be precious and precious on the lips, in fact, under her darkest human heart, will become

vulnerable.

Facing the temptation of youth, she walked step by step towards the point of no return that she herself had expected, but. ... It's not that she can't turn back, but she already doesn't want to turn back.

It's as if I can immediately confirm my results these days, whether youth can really return to me....

She knew that she couldn't blame anyone, it was all because of her own greed, she was already greedy to the point of knowingly committing a crime, she didn't want to turn back, couldn't turn back, don't turn back....

The look of enjoying anticipation on her face finally disappeared.

became calm.

Pour the water from the kettle into the large bowl, then walked out of the kitchen with the bowl in hand.

Looking at the daughter on the sofa, she was no longer as youthful and lively as I remembered. Although there were no more changes on her face, her demeanor and temperament had obviously changed.

This will speed up….

Xu Jinzhi put the bowl on the sofa.

Gently stroking the girl beside her, the proportion of her white hair has increased significantly.

But An Jingyue didn't seem to notice it yet.

The contented girl lying on the sofa looked at her mother with a forced smile, but she was indeed smiling.

"mom……"

The sound of mother was almost squeezed out of his throat, and Xu Jinzhi felt a little heartbroken, but soon, it was replaced by more other emotions.

She smiled and nodded.

"Drink the medicine, adjust your spirit, take a good rest these few days, and don't go anywhere."

"I see."

An Jingyue didn't ask anyone to accompany her. During this time, if she could feel her mother's care so much, it might be a good experience.

As for the abnormalities in her body, An Jingyue seemed to be out of control. In other words, her body and brain didn't give her the extra strength to think about these abnormal things.

For An Jingyue, this period of time was indeed the most relaxing time when she felt that she didn't have to think about anything.

My mother didn't complain about her marriage anymore, and she didn't have any other things in school life to interfere with her life.

After drinking the medicine, she lay on the bed.

Looking at the ceiling, his eyelids involuntarily became heavy.

I can't remember how many days this has happened. My mother's meticulous care may be the only consolation in such difficult years.

She didn't go out these days, nor did she contact the outside world, because her mother forbade her to play with her mobile phone.

Said it would affect my rest.

But it seemed even more strange. Just now An Jingyue noticed that the TV was always on.

And something disappeared from the house.

That is the mirror.
