Cheng Mo stood in the safety stairwell and listened to the sounds upstairs in confusion. The voice-activated light turned on for a while and then suddenly went out. The entire stairwell suddenly fell into darkness, and the sound of pattering water continued, just like a rainy night. Cheng Mo

He felt the coldness that penetrated his heart, which made him feel like he was back in the evening when it was raining heavily. He was walking through the deserted long street with ice rain dripping all over his body. The whole city was soaked in the endless heavy rain, and the cars were swimming around him.

Like lantern fish in the deep sea, the high-rise buildings in the distance are like mirages floating in the air.

That kind of ethereal nothingness is like the mother who lives in his memory. She will always be just the vague image described by his father, intellectual, beautiful, sometimes willful and sometimes gentle.

Perhaps this is why he only drew the back of Bai Xiuxiu, not because of his limited pen power, but because the tenderness he yearned for was vague.

Cheng Mo stood in the stairwell and heard the sound of water disappearing. Bai Xiuxiu opened the door and then closed it again. Cheng Mo knew that the security guard would not come. The security system at the door of Bai Xiuxiu's house was independent. He walked down the stairs gently, wet.

The soles and steps made a sticky sound.

He walked downstairs step by step, opened the door, and quietly closed the door. Just like that day, he first took a hot bath, and then lay down on the still cold bed. He looked at the ceiling and thought that he had gone too far today.

The words he said were not not good enough, but they were so good and so true that they betrayed his own weakness and were so true that even he had to believe them.

Cheng Mo believed that Bai Xiuxiu could feel his hidden pain, but now, he actually felt that he didn't want Bai Xiuxiu's sympathy at all.

Cheng Mo looked at the ceiling and thought wildly. At this moment, he put his phone on the bedside table and his phone lit up. He reached for it and opened it to see that Bai Xiuxiu had sent him three WeChat messages. The first one was sent more than 20 minutes ago.

The content is: "Take a hot bath and don't catch a cold."

The second post was sent more than ten minutes ago. The content is: "I don't like the flowers and have thrown them away. But I like the paintings very much. It's a pity that you burned them, but thank you anyway."

The third message was just sent, with only two simple words: "Good night."

Cheng Mo didn't reply. He just turned off the phone screen and closed his eyes, but he couldn't fall asleep. He sat up from the bed and turned on the bright ceiling lamp in the room, which illuminated the room as bright as day. He put on his pajamas and

I went to the study room, turned on the computer and went online, and started searching for online oil painting courses. After choosing one, I started reading it carefully.

Cheng Mo didn't think that his desire to learn oil painting was influenced by Li Jiting, he just suddenly became interested in oil painting.

As for the reason, maybe it’s because Xie Minyun loves oil painting and she also has painting skills; maybe it’s the incident with Teacher Shen; maybe it’s because he tried painting today and found it very interesting.

December 30, 2018.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The first day of the New Year's holiday.

Bai Xiuxiu had not contacted him in the past few days. It was not until today that he and Jing Xing went to Penglai Mountain that Feng Luwan came to the door.

At this moment, Cheng Mo transformed into Lin Zino, packing up things in the room and putting them into boxes. Feng Luwan took out a silver box from the pocket of her gray woolen coat and handed it to Cheng Mo and said, "There is a shielding ring inside.

As long as you put it on the Ouroboros ring, you can cut off your connection with the Ouroboros system, but after using the shielding ring, you will not be able to use any skills and auxiliary systems."

Cheng Mo took the silver box with the Tai Chi Dragon logo engraved on it. He opened the box and saw a transparent ring lying on the black soft lining. The ring was inlaid with golden fine lines like circuits.

The ring looked very soft. I didn't know what material it was made of. Cheng Mo looked up at Feng Luwan and asked, "Does that mean that if I want to use skills, I can just take off the ring?"

Feng Luwan shook her head and said expressionlessly: "Because your carrier will not be detected by the Ouroboros system while using the ring, you can always maintain the carrier state, but when you take off the ring, the carrier will not be detected by the Ouroboros system.

When the tail snake system establishes a connection, it will be judged as a bug because the time on the carrier is stagnant and inconsistent with the system time, causing it to return to the body immediately. Therefore, when taking off the ring, it must be 100% safe, otherwise it will be very serious.

It is easy to cause the carrier to be killed.”

Cheng Mo gently picked up the ring. The soft-looking ring was harder than he expected. It shone brightly like crystal in the sun. Cheng Mo said, "This one seems a bit too eye-catching."

"You first set the ring to invisible, and then put the shielding ring on the position of the Ouroboros ring, then the shielding ring will also become invisible and cannot be detected by any detector."

Cheng Mo said "Oh", put the silver box on the table, and carefully put the shielding ring on the root of the ring finger of his left hand. Sure enough, when the shielding ring came into contact with the Ouroboros ring, it disappeared.

There are also the 3D map and other auxiliary systems that Cheng Mo originally opened. Cheng Mo tried to open the information list, but the system did not respond at all.

In this moment, he changed from the omnipotent Chosen One to a human being who is just stronger than mortals.

Cheng Mo pulled up the box and said to Feng Luwan: "Then my body will be handed over to Miss Feng."

Feng Luwan nodded and said calmly: "Don't worry, I will stay here for the next few days and there won't be any problems."

Cheng Mo said "Thank you" and dragged the silver registration box out of the bedroom. Feng Luwan also followed Cheng Mo out of the bedroom and walked him to the door. "Pay attention to safety. It would be best if we could find out the location of Penglai Mountain."

, don’t force it if you can’t find it, don’t make Jing Quan suspicious, this person is very cunning, you must be careful when dealing with him.”

"I understand." Cheng Mo replied, then walked into the elevator that opened the door, pressed the first floor button, then he pressed the door open button, looked at Feng Luwan standing at the door and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Feng

secretary."

Maybe the elevator reminded Feng Luwan of something. Her originally normal attitude suddenly said coldly: "There's no need to be so polite. This is my job. Just don't let Sister Bai down. She wants to help you."

Get the triple-A attack skill and issue a military order. If you get nothing from this undercover Black Death operation, she will return her 'Time Rift' skill to the organization. You may not know this skill.

It means something to Sister Bai, but I can tell you that even ten triple-A skills cannot be exchanged for super skills."

Cheng Mo naturally knew what the "time rift" meant to Bai Xiuxiu. It was not just a skill left behind by her husband, but also the main skill she relied on to enter the top 100 list. Cheng Mo didn't believe it and opened his mouth slightly.

He wanted to refute, but he judged from Feng Luwan's expression that she was not lying. This shocked Cheng Mo and even began to doubt his own micro-expression. Cheng Mo didn't know what to say and could only remain silent.

Feng Luwan sneered and said: "I was too lazy to tell you this at first, but what did you do to Sister Bai that night? You said how pitiful you were. I can tell you clearly that no matter what happens, Sister Bai will try to consider your feelings.

I even tried to fight with the superiors, saying that you are a rare genius. I hope to cancel your plan to undercover the Black Death and let you join the Tai Chi Dragon Kang Long Group, but you were rejected by the superiors. I guess it’s just that pervert of yours.

The master refused.”

Cheng Mo pressed the door open button for a long time without letting go. It wasn't until the elevator buzzer rang that he lowered his head and said, "I understand, thank you, Secretary Feng."

Feng Luwan just snorted coldly, turned around and walked into the room.

Cheng Mo released the door button, and the stainless steel elevator door quickly closed, isolating him from Feng Luwan. Cheng Mo looked at his own shadow in the golden mirrored stainless steel and felt that people are really contradictory, longing for love and fearing responsibility.

The goal was achieved, but Cheng Mo felt that he had no way out.

—

When Cheng Mo arrived at Star City International Airport, it was almost ten o'clock, and it was only more than an hour before the flight from Star City to Kuala Lumpur took off. Jing Xing waited sincerely at the door of the international departure hall, and saw Cheng Mo get out of the taxi.

, hurriedly came over and enthusiastically took the initiative to help Cheng Mo pull the box, "I'm just waiting for you, everyone else is here!"

Cheng Mo didn't give the box to Jing Xing, but said "It's very light, no need", and then asked: "Who else is there besides the two of us?"

Jing Xing blinked at Cheng Mo and said with a mysterious smile: "Of course there is a girl accompanying me, I guarantee it will be a big surprise!"

Cheng Mo had doubts in his heart and wondered if Jing Xing had called Gao Yuemei, but after thinking about it carefully, it was probably not the case. It was impossible for Jing Xing to call Gao Yuemei for such a secret matter as meeting Boss Jing. Cheng Mo's heart sank a little.

A possibility occurred to him, which made him a little uneasy, but on the surface he followed Jing Xing toward the airport as if nothing had happened.
