This storm beyond common sense ended earlier than Qiu Yu expected. In less than an hour, the banging sound on the outer wall of the hall ended completely.
However, the flying snow in the sky did not fall to the ground, but kept floating up and down, so that the line of sight outside the hall could not exceed ten meters.
"Can we go out now?" Qiu Yan stood up from the chair and asked Qiu Yu for his opinion.
Qiu Yu thought for a while, then closed his eyes, as if listening to something, but his expression became more and more uneasy. In Qiu Yu's feeling, there were waves of things outside the seemingly calm hall that made his body feel like needles pricking him.
A sense of crisis.
Qiu Yu opened his eyes and said flatly, "No."
Seeing Qiu Yan sit back on the chair in response, Qiu Yu felt relieved again.
"Can I go try?"
The boy who tried to smash the TV a few days ago but failed to do so timidly walked up to Qiu Yu.
"Are you talking to me?" Qiu Yu looked a little confused.
In Qiu Yu's consciousness, the only concept of his own people is himself, Qian Xiao and Qiu Yan. The others are just passers-by who were thrown together. But in the hearts of others, he can call out that invisible and terrifying weirdo.
After drinking it, Qiu Yu has vaguely become the default leader of everyone.
The boy nodded nervously.
"I'm afraid it's still very dangerous outside." Qiu Yu always has a good impression of people who are willing to take the initiative to talk to him. He thought about it, and then said loudly in a threatening tone, "Isn't someone forcing you?"
The boy shook his head quickly and glanced behind him with the corner of his tender eyes. Where his gaze stayed was the girl he had eaten on the TV.
When she saw the boy looking at her, even if it was just from the corner of her eye, the girl immediately pouted and turned her head away.
Qiu Yu almost immediately understood the reason why the boy wanted to go out, "Do you want to prove yourself to her?"
Although Qiu Yu didn't say who she was referring to, the boy's reaction immediately confirmed his guess - the boy shook his head desperately at first, then gradually slowed down, and finally nodded slightly.
Qiu Yu said earnestly, "There are many ways to prove yourself, but using your life to prove it is the stupidest."
The boy did not answer, but looked at Qiu Yu stubbornly. He originally had many words to persuade the boy, but the moment Qiu Yu's eyes met his eyes, all his words were taken away. This look has been seen for several days.
, Qiu Yu has seen enough in the eyes of those people who have been thrown back by Qiu Yan again and again. None of those people who are lost in their own obsessions have been successfully persuaded by him. Only Qiu Yan can enter this state.
deal with.
"Then you go ask that person." Qiu Yu pointed at Qiu Yan, "If she agrees, you can go out."
Qiu Yu knew that his words were effective - the boy looked at Qiu Yan with fear in his eyes. But what Qiu Yu didn't expect was that Qiu Yan, who was already three or four meters away from the door, heard that he and the boy
After the conversation, he lifted the chair and sat further away from the door.
There was a sudden explosion in Qiu Yu's head. Qiu Yan was using actions to prove that she would not stop the boy from going out.
"It's very dangerous outside. He can't go out." Qiu Yu said this to Qiu Yan. Qiu Yu knew that Qiu Yan was the key to whether the boy would go out.
Qiu Yan's reaction was to move the chair further away.
Qiu Yan's actions this time made several people who had been suppressed by her become active again.
"Danger is dangerous, you know the danger. If you wait any longer, the entire human civilization will be in danger."
"That's his own choice, what right do you have to stop it."
"If you wait until the lizard men come, can you take responsibility? Someone has to go out and try."
…
Qiu Yu looked at the others who were still calm as if asking for help, but everyone who made eye contact with Qiu Yu lowered their heads silently.
"Okay, okay, okay." Qiu Yu looked at the last trump card, "Qian Xiao, give me a good beating for anyone who wants to get out."
Qian Xiao hesitated for a long time, then lowered his head and walked towards the boy under Qiu Yu's almost pleading eyes.
The boy realized the danger, but still stood there, staring at Qian Xiao with anger and fear.
When Qian Xiao walked up to the boy and slowly raised his hand, the boy didn't make any moves to dodge or block, but just closed his eyes tightly.
But after a long time, the pain that the boy imagined did not appear. Instead, he heard Qiu Yu's angry roar.
"Qian Xiao, are you crazy?"
Qian Xiao didn't say anything, and didn't know what to say to Qiu Yu at all. He just pressed Qiu Yu on the chair with his hands like iron pliers, not letting Qiu Yu move even a little bit as he tried his best.
The boy cast a grateful look at Qian Xiao and thanked him softly.
The moment the boy turned around and ran towards the door, he seemed to hear the cute fat man say something in a very soft voice. The boy wanted to tell him that he didn't hear what he just said clearly, but the fat man didn't.
Always keep your head down.
"You can ask after you become a hero when you come back." The boy thought this way, looked back at the girl who was still angry, and then stretched his hand towards the bright door.
Qiu Yu whispered the words that the boy didn't hear clearly, "I'm sorry..."
The boy opened the glass door, and the flying snow was like cheerful elves, gently resting on his shoulders.
It seemed to be warmer outside than before. The boy thought that if it were not blocked by the snow, he might be able to see the bright sunshine.
(Like the bright sunshine of a girl...)
Perhaps the happiest people are those who have two rays of sunshine, one giving warmth to the body, and the other giving warmth to the soul.
Thinking of the sunshine that warmed his soul, the boy could hardly resist the urge to look back. He had just seen it a few seconds ago... (he actually wanted to see it again...)
The boy took a step towards the door. The snow was as soft as cotton and slightly bounced the boy's feet back.
The boy knew that this was his illusion, and snow would never be so elastic.
He stepped on his foot a little more firmly, and when he was about to take out the other foot, he heard a short but familiar voice coming from behind him.
(She still cares about him...)
The boy walked out of the hall more determinedly.
"Look, the time is still decreasing after being reduced by half."
"6 hours, 5 hours, 4 hours, 3 hours, 2 hours, starting from 2 hours, you can get a little survival point every two hours."
Hearing the voice behind him, the boy knew that he had become a hero, at least half of it.
"Come back quickly." This is the girl's cry.
"Come back quickly." This was the voice called Qiu Yu.
Fortunately, he was called "Master" by that fat man because of his keen sense. This time, his sense of sunshine was faster than his... Is it because of me?
(Yes, that's true...)
But he couldn't go back. The boy lowered his head and looked at the thing that extended into his body from outside his sight. It was lumpy, like an ugly tongue.
I don't want to look at such ugly things before I die.
The boy turned his head desperately, trying to look at the girl again, but his body had no strength, but at least...
"Get out of the way, let me pass... wu... please, let me pass..."
Sunshine took the initiative to approach him as before, and this should be regarded as her forgiveness... In this case, there is only one thing left to worry about.
Click
This was the sound of the door being closed, and the girl's voice became muffled.
It’s safe, there’s nothing to worry about anymore…
The corners of the boy's mouth, grinning in pain, slowly closed into an upward arc of pride.
The ugly object that penetrated the boy slowly disappeared into the endless white, dragging the boy who was already as light as snow.
In the end, the girl could not see the smile left for her...
