Cheng Ying turned around following the sound and saw that He Fei, who had been sleeping on the sofa behind her, had stood up and sat up at some point. The blanket covering his body was pushed aside by him. The young man was now looking at her with a solemn gaze. Seeing that the other person was still there.
After falling asleep, Cheng Ying, who was responsible for keeping watch for half the night, neither asked the other party why he was not sleeping nor immediately responded to the other party to thank him. Instead, he moved to sit opposite the young man and slowly sat down. He picked up the slightly cold cup of coffee on the coffee table and sipped it.
After taking a breath and taking a long breath, she replied in a calm tone:
"No need to thank you. I was the only one who reacted first in that situation, so I naturally wanted to save you. Just like what you like to say in the past, it seems that... only the team can overcome the difficulties by uniting as one and helping each other."
Right?"
Cheng Ying didn't seem to care about what he said, but He Fei, who had personal experience and knew how dangerous the situation was at that time, didn't think so. After hearing the other party's answer, he smiled, and He Fei changed the subject and continued: "That's what it said.
That's right, but have you thought about it?
Have you ever thought that if you come to save me then you might even be attacked? And that female locust is not a locust in the ordinary sense, that is Sadako! She is a terrifying female locust in an unsolved horror movie, I...
Am I worth your risk to save me again?"
The reason why the word 'again' is added is because He Fei knew very well that the rescue during the day was not the first time he was rescued by the handsome young man in front of him. As early as the mission at Halton Manor, the other party
He once used his body to block a fatal attack for himself and almost died! This kind of action showed that the other party cared about him very much, and He Fei gradually changed from initial gratitude to surprise and now develops into some kind of complex feelings.
He Fei said the above sentence very seriously. Unexpectedly, Cheng Ying did not answer him this time. Instead, she looked at the young man with indifferent eyes. Their eyes met each other, as if in a trance. He Fei noticed that the other person's eyes were
Very beautiful, the beautiful and deep eyes actually gave him a strange feeling that he could only feel when he looked at Ye Wei. He couldn't explain the reason. Looking further, he gradually became different from Ye Wei's eyes, and this feeling
Still indescribable.
"Ahem!"
It wasn't until he became more and more uncomfortable being stared at by Cheng Ying, and when he was about to be addicted to those beautiful eyes, that he suddenly came back to his senses. He Fei hurriedly coughed dryly. After coughing a few times, he said with an embarrassed face: "Well, that
, no more chatting, I’m going to bed first, remember to wake me up when it’s time to change shifts.”
Ignoring the young man who lay back on the sofa and continued to sleep, Cheng Ying also looked away after He Fei lay down. In the silence, the professional killer remained focused, with a pair of eyes that were indifferent when they looked at each other but now suddenly sharp.
Scanning around the living room, she saw that she was the most qualified night watchman as a killer. It was obvious that Cheng Ying was on alert, and it was certain that she would never do anything unnecessary in the following time, and would only maintain
On high alert.
Late at night, in the living room, a pair of eyes kept scanning the surrounding environment...
………
Time went from night to late night, then from late night to midnight, and finally from midnight to early morning. Just like the previous description, nothing happened during this period, nothing abnormal happened, and time continued to pass quietly.
At 2:14 in the morning, in a bedroom of the presidential suite.
The luxurious bedroom unique to the presidential suite could not hide the fear in Guo Zhenyu's heart. At this moment, he raised his head and glanced at the clock on the wall, staring at Meng Xiangxu, who was twitching like hysteria from time to time on the bed. The middle-aged man sitting on a stool next to the bed was very
It was clear that although Meng Xiangxu had fallen asleep, his sleep was not stable, and he even twitched from time to time just from the other party.
He could vaguely guess that the guy named Meng Xiangxu in front of him was probably dreaming. It was conceivable that he would feel scared even in a dream. As a person who was keeping vigil at night, Guo Zhenyu had to face the reality with trepidation.
, facing the reality of the existence of moths, and facing the terrifying reality that we are now in a dangerous environment.
What is reality? The reality is that this is a mission world, a world of midnight bells, and here, there is a female squid named Sadako!
"Ah...huh..."
He was scared, but Guo Zhenyu was still sleepy. He wanted to sleep, so he couldn't help but yawn. He stretched out his hand to rub his tired face until he finished this refreshing action and looked at the clock again.
(It’s almost time. If I persist for another hour and a half, I will be able to sleep. Then I will wake up Meng Xiangxu and ask him to take my place for the rest of the night.)
While looking at the clock, he mentally encouraged himself to persevere. Although people's energy level would be much lower once they enter middle age, Guo Zhenyu did his duty very well. He did not take a nap during the vigil. It was not that he did not sleep, but that he did not take a nap.
Dare to sleep, after all, the female captain named Ye Wei had deliberately warned the newcomers before returning to the room that the night watchman would beat him during the night watch.
Taking a nap is tantamount to courting death, and it is irresponsible for the lives of yourself and your teammates. After all, Guo Zhenyu has lived for more than forty years. Of course he understands these principles. Therefore, after a while, he found that he was getting sleepier and even rubbed his face.
When all else failed, the middle-aged man did not continue to sit down, but chose to stand up, and then slowly walked around the bedroom.
Ta, da, da...
Yes, it seems to him that walking is at least less likely to fall asleep than sitting in a chair.
In boredom, in addition to pacing slowly, the middle-aged man also looked around the room from time to time, occasionally looking at the clock, and from time to time looking out the window to prevent himself from dozing off.
Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Although pacing makes you sober, please don't forget that humans are thinking creatures. Many times, the more sleepy and uncomfortable people are, the more anxious they are, and the more they wish time would pass faster.
, and the more anxious you feel, the slower time seems to pass.
Guo Zhenyu was currently in this state. When he looked up at the wall clock again, he saw that it was 2:24, which meant that he had only stayed up for 10 minutes. Seeing this, Guo Zhenyu felt even more uncomfortable. In annoyance, the man sat back down again.
The chair next to the bed begins a new round of long waiting.
but……
While returning to his seat, Guo Zhenyu didn't notice one thing, one detail, a small detail that even a meerkats with as sharp nerves would not be able to detect:
Hula...
I don’t know when, as a cool breeze blew through the window, in this double bedroom that only sleeps and wakes up, if you look back, you will see...
The moment Guo Zhenyu sat back on the chair, an eye appeared behind his body, in the shadow of the gap between the man's waist and the back of the chair...!
An eye that has just opened but has been moving since then!!!
