Chu Cheng was a little surprised when he saw that Agent Luo, like the Lezi man lying on the ground, also turned his arm into a weapon form.
What is this? The same type of substitute as the opposite one?
He remembered that Chen Meiyue said that Agent Luo's infection level was already very high, so maybe now his infection level has exceeded 100% and reached the level of awakening superpowers.
Luo Yajun swayed. His feet were a little numb now. He stretched out a hand to support the wall, and then sat down against the wall.
He slowly took out a cigarette from his pocket and glanced at Batman in the shadow next to him before putting the cigarette case away.
"One?" he asked.
Batman stood indifferently in the darkness, saying nothing.
Luo Yajun didn't mind either. He lit one himself and took a deep breath, as if he had endless aftertaste.
"A street vendor, but I'm used to smoking." He smiled, "Old Brooke's favorite. If you've ever seen that old guy, you'll know that he's a real chain smoker.
You know, bat? I used to hate smoking, and even seeing other people smoking would make me feel bad. I used to argue with Old Brooke a lot. But guess what he said? He said tobacco taxes are annual revenue.
For the most part, the money will be used in more important places, perhaps educating more children and saving more lives.
He said that smokers make the world a better place through completely voluntary self-sacrifice, and they should be regarded as heroes... Haha, isn’t that nonsense?”
Agent Luo leaned against the dark wall and took another puff of cigarette.
"I said he didn't listen at all. In fact, his wife scolded him many times... She is a very good person and very warm to people. She can also make very delicious burritos, which are full of meat.
Overflowing stuffing, add potatoes and appropriate sauce...
At that time, he often took me to his house for dinner, and every time I could eat the burrito made by his wife. You can't find better burritos than that anywhere else, and in fact you will never find them again.
Never again."
He was silent for a while and didn't speak. He just smoked silently. The sparks quickly burned from the cigarette butt to the filter. He threw away the cigarette butt, took out the cigarette box and took out a new one.
"And his little daughter." Agent Luo said softly, "a six-year-old little guy. You simply can't believe what kind of meticulous craftsmanship God has to go through to create such an angel.
I remember that on her sixth birthday, Brooke invited me to his house. The little guy ran around screaming and smearing birthday cake cream on my face. Then her mother caught her, hahaha...
..My mother told her not to do this to guests. She lowered her head and admitted her mistake, but secretly she was still making faces at me.
Then I made faces at her too... funny, right?
They were really good to me. I used to have no family, no worries, only passion and what I wanted to do. But at that time, I really couldn't help but think, the so-called family...that's about it
The same thing, right?
It is also from that child's eyes, those eyes that are always bright and beautiful as if they do not belong to this world, that I feel as if I see... the future. Or, in other words, what we expect the future to be like.
.”
Luo Yajun took another puff of cigarette and blew out the smoke ring.
"Later...after Brooke left, I saw her again, that angelic child," he said, "that brilliance disappeared. The first time I saw her eyes like that, I lost
Out of all the glory, only the haze remains, a haze that will never go away.
For the first time, I felt disillusioned. The expectations of the future that I had always been able to see were suddenly torn to pieces by reality."
He looked through the swirling smoke at the body that fell not far away, with its head blown into pieces.
"I thought I came out of it, but that was just my wishful thinking. The appearance of this guy reminded me of this, because it was me who created the devil."
He suddenly looked behind him.
"Have you ever had that experience? That... the only person who was important to you, the person who unknowingly became an integral part of you... and they were suddenly taken away from you, just like
Feeling like there's a huge hole in your heart that can never be filled? And the worst part is... you feel like it's all your fault."
After a long silence, Batman in the shadows spoke out for the first time.
"I understand."
He made a low, hoarse and weird voice, but it seemed to have a kind of magnetism for some reason. Luo Yajun quickly realized that it was a voice that had been processed by a voice changer, but he didn't care.
"Haha, this is the first time I heard you speak directly." He smiled while holding a cigarette, "Hell, I don't know why I said this to you. I thought I would never say it to anyone in this life.
These...
But I think it might be because of this. After that incident, I almost gave up. The hopeful future I could see had long since disappeared. I spent every day aimlessly, looking for prey.
, looking for a fight, is just looking for a suitable graveyard for myself.
But deep down in my heart, I have long since lost sight of what I am fighting for. Perhaps that is why this guy was born. He disguises himself with a smile and looks like he knows everything and laughs at everything, but in fact he is just hiding himself.
of incompetence.
Those unknown things, ancient and evil beings, are always good at bringing out the worst in people's hearts, allowing us to create our own demons.
I once thought that I could be fearless, that I could look directly into the void that everyone was afraid of, look directly into the eyes of the devil, and tell it that I was not afraid of the right choice. But I was wrong.
For a moment, I seemed to really understand why old Brooke always avoided trouble and was cautious. Maybe there are things in the world that are more important than yourself, and maybe sometimes you just can't... give it a try.
, do the right thing.
Because what we have to face is often something that human power cannot fight against. I mean... bullets can kill prisoners, maybe one, maybe ten or even more... but you don't
Darkness itself cannot be defeated.
Ha, I can’t imagine that one day I will actually say this to people. But I always feel that I can definitely understand what you are saying, right, bat?”
"yes."
A hoarse voice came from the shadows.
"That's exactly why I'm here."
Luo Yajun laughed and laughed for a long time.
"Hahaha, that's true. I think I understand now why I said this to you. Remember what I just said, I can't see the future for a long time?
But recently I seem to suddenly feel that I can vaguely see again. Although the road is not easy to walk, and it is no longer the same as my naive expectations in the past. But at least I can see the direction again...
...thanks to you and your amazing companions.
So no matter who you are or where you come from, I do have three cliché words to say to you..."
He paused, frowned, turned and looked behind him, only to find that he was the only one left in the dark alley.
Batman has left at some point.
