When he got home, it was almost late at night. Bai Yu quietly opened the door. The curtains in the living room were opened. The bright moonlight filled the floor and sofa. From the door, he could see Luo Minmin in white pajamas.
After falling asleep, I sat there quietly, staring at the turned-off TV in ecstasy.
"Still not asleep?"
There was a long silence.
"Um……"
"Then I'll rest first and go to bed early. A lot of things happened today." Luoliya must have been arranged to rest in the room. Bai Yu quickly walked into his room holding the file Viper gave him.
.
After taking off his school uniform, the file was thrown on top of the pile of comics on the floor. He threw himself on the bed feebly, wanting to close his eyes and fall asleep. However, after a while, he stood up again and picked up the comics from the floor.
I picked up the file, turned on the desk lamp, leaned on the bed and started reading.
What is recorded here is about Wen Jing’s past.
Wen Jing's father is a businessman, and her mother is a professional housewife who takes care of her children full-time. Although her father's business is small, she can fully support the family. Even if she is not rich, she is full of happiness. At that time,
Wen Jing is cheerful and optimistic, and is full of smiles every day.
Until the day of doom strikes.
His father's originally decent business was affected by the financial crisis. In order to survive, he borrowed money to ease the situation. However, more and more debts and a business that was not improving became a threat that tightened around Wen Jing's father's neck.
Under great pressure, he hid his wife and daughter, forced a smile, and tried his best to change. In the end, he became addicted to drugs, which became the beginning of tragedy.
"Dad..." Wen Jing, who was in the second grade of primary school, opened the door of her home and smelled the pungent smell. The room was very dark. She looked inside and saw something shaking in the air, "Dad, Mom, you guys
Are you at home?" She stood up on tiptoes, turned on the light, and the scene before her eyes stayed in her heart for a moment.
The mother was lying on the floor covered in blood, her body became cold and stiff, and fell on the kitchen knife next to her, covered in the blood of that gentle woman.
In mid-air, Wen Jing's father hung his head and became unresponsive. When his drug addiction broke out, he killed his beloved wife. After a brief period of sobriety, he couldn't bear the guilt and hanged himself.
In one day, Wen Jing lost two of her most important family members.
On that day, she lost her smile forever.
Putting down the file, Bai Yu reached out and rubbed his sore eyes. It was not comfortable to read such small words under this dim light. "Hey..." A sigh that contained too many emotions represented his mood at this time.
, finally understood why Wen Jing was obsessed with herself. She remembered the earthquake and knew that she was the only survivor. Did she hope to find a way to survive by observing herself? Or, she simply regarded herself as another person.
Let her look at it alone.
An hour later, Bai Yu walked back to the living room, feeling indescribable. When he walked to the kitchen, he suddenly found that Luo Minmin was still sitting in the same position, looking out the window in a trance.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" Bai Yu asked without looking back as he turned on the light in the kitchen. He found coffee from the cabinet. Since he couldn't fall asleep, he simply woke up completely and said, "Do you want to drink it?"
Luo Minmin nodded slightly.
Then, two cups of coffee with a rich aroma were placed on the coffee table. Bai Yu sat on the other side of the sofa, and the two of them fell silent.
"Are you worried about that god of death named Mary?" Probably unable to bear the tortured silence, Bai Yu picked up the cup, put it to his lips and blew gently, "Why did she betray you?
"It's the pursuit of power." A look of helplessness flashed through Luo Minmin's blank eyes, "Originally, she was an enthusiastic and cheerful senior. Even I didn't realize when she started to become like this.
, I was assigned to work under her when I first became the God of Death and was still the leader. It was also Mary who taught me how to use disasters to fight. At that time, she had a smile that made me extremely warm."
Senior, that is the female God of Death that I long for.
"Then you surpassed her? You became a sergeant, but she was still the executor." Bai Yu roughly understood the twist in the death god's heart, "It's because of jealousy." "I don't know, why are you jealous... Proof
Is it so important to be stronger than me?" Luo Minmin shook her head in confusion, causing her upright and kind heart to twist into a dark color. Is it just because of jealousy?
"I would like to ask, how long has the Death God named Mary been the executioner?"
"a hundred years."
"Well... I don't know whether I should complain about whether it was a long time or a short time. What about you, how long it took to leap from leader to sergeant."
"Five years, what's wrong, asking such a question?"
Seeing Luo Minmin's still confused expression, Bai Yu could only reply with a sigh.
"I'm telling you, you haven't considered Mary's mood at all. After a hundred years, you are still an executor of the management area. As an apprentice, you have become a more powerful death god than her in just five years.
It's easy to go to extremes if you can't figure it out for a while, but comparing the gap between a hundred years and five years, you are really a genius." Bai Yu thought for a long time and found that Luo Minmin could only be described as a genius, but
The latter just didn't know it.
"So, what are you going to do, and then kill Mary with your other companion?" Bai Yu put down the cup. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the cup of coffee was down, and his mind became clearer. "Although I don't know much about it."
I understand the rules of your underworld, but since the God of Death is also a human soul, then his behavior must not be much different. For traitors who challenge the order, there is no doubt that the only way is destruction." "I don't know..." He held his hands.
Holding her head, Luo Minmin closed her eyes with a painful expression, "I don't know, what should I do..." Whether to save important friends or abide by the iron law of the underworld, this extremely difficult choice made Luo Minmin again and again.
Can't sleep.
"Do you want to save her?"
"Of course...but the people above won't allow it."
"Then the only way is to kill her with your own hands." Bai Yu picked up a silver spoon, put it into the cup and slowly stirred it, "You... are a god of death, but now you show such a human expression, it's shocking
Surprisingly, speaking of it, I am just as troubled as you are about whether to save Wen Jing." "It's not a question of the same level at all, is it? Wen Jing has been eroded and controlled by the evil voice. He is a puppet and has nothing to do with it.
The value of saving." Talking about another problem person, Luo Minmin's reaction was much colder, "What's more important is that if you join forces with those abnormal people, you are no match for Shayin." "No, there is a chance.
, I have Taotie." "Is that useful? Without a strong enough medium, you just have no strength." She laughed unceremoniously, and Luo Minmin's current mood could no longer be described as bad and irritable.
His tone became sharper, "No, there is another person who can help me." Bai Yu turned around and stared at Luo Minmin with a serious expression.
After being impatient at the beginning, the latter gradually became unnatural, and finally murmured: "You don't know how to do it, do you want me to help you?"
"Who else but you?"
"In my dreams, I will never join forces with humans."
"Then, if I go to challenge Shayin alone, I will end up getting killed. You, the God of Death in the underworld, don't want to see this ending, right?"
Luo Minmin wanted to refute, but suddenly realized that there seemed to be no words that could solve the threat to the human beings in front of her.
Taotie's power is an important combat power, and the underworld will never let it go.
This is also the reason why he is still monitoring Bai Yu in the human world.
"You scoundrel!" Luo Minmin yelled angrily. She felt a strong sense of frustration. She was actually helpless against this human being? Speaking of which, not long ago, he also defeated her once.
"This is a helpless tactic, Luo Minmin, I need your help to defeat Shayin and rescue Wen Jing."
"It's useless, that child has been swallowed up with his soul..."
"No, I can feel that Wen Jing's soul still exists. It must be her who said goodbye before leaving at the end." Thinking of the side of farewell, the feeling of powerlessness in Bai Yu's heart began to hurt. What?
Can't do it all? He is not an invincible messenger of justice, at best he is just an ordinary young man who accidentally possesses power.
There is no need to risk your life to save Wen Jing.
It's just that I can't suppress that feeling.
It's so intense that it makes you want to explode.
"I know there's no benefit in doing this, and it's not like my style, but this is the time, I'm going to save her, please."
"It's a foul for you to do this." Luo Minmin stamped her feet in annoyance, jumped off the sofa, stepped on the carpet, put her hands on her hips, and looked down at Bai Yu. A cunning look could be seen in the young man's eyes, "I know that
I have to make sure you live!" "If you help me, I will help you save Mary." "So humans are really... what did you just say?" "I said, in exchange, you are willing to help me defeat Shayin.
, to ensure that Mary can survive when she encounters other gods of death." Bai Yu quickly found the trick to negotiate with Luo Minmin.
"Why do you make the guarantee?"
"Those abnormal people can be regarded as my temporary allies. I will rescue Mary through them. Is this condition acceptable?" Looking at Bai Yu who was sitting on the sofa and talking, Luo Minmin subconsciously felt angry.
, the elite of the Death God Realm was led by the nose by an ordinary human being, but the anger in his heart turned into nothing in the end.
"no sooner said than done!"
"Of course, I am a person who keeps my promises." After the deal was concluded, Bai Yu began to think about the next step.
Inside, I actually felt a little excited.
Why do I get excited uncontrollably?
Bai Yu denied the other side that existed in his heart, the other side that longed for the abnormal. The real self, after understanding the value of life, yearned for the ordinary daily life.
"I hope so." Luo Minmin drank the coffee in one gulp and returned to the room.
As for Bai Yu, he sat quietly on the sofa, lost in thought.
The next day, in the principal's office of No. 3 Middle School in the city.
There is one more student in front of Viper.
"It's class time now, and it's not the principal's responsibility to indulge in skipping classes." As he sorted out the documents on the table, Viper glanced at Bai Yu who was sitting opposite him from time to time, "Are you here to return my files?" "Yeah."
The file was thrown back, and Bai Yu's face still showed the dissatisfaction of being plotted, "You had already expected that this file would shake me." "Shaken? No, as an educator, I put my hope in you.
In that innocent sense of justice, that girl was unfortunate. She lost her beloved parents and fell into darkness. Even if it was a monster who opened her arms to her, she accepted it without hesitation. Today's Wen Jing
, still lost in the darkness, waiting for others to rescue." Viper accepted the file and inserted it into other piles of documents, with a solemn look on his face, "Fortunately, she got to know you." "Tch.
"How can there be so many messengers of justice in the world? Everyone will experience different hardships and pains, and they have all hoped that someone would save them." Thinking of the experience of being buried under the ruins, I felt a tremor all over my body. If, from time to time,
Someone passed by and saved me, and maybe I became the so-called God of Death? "But not everyone is lucky enough to be rescued." No one was rescued in the earthquake except myself, etc.,
When she first met Luo Minmin dressed as the God of Death, she seemed to have said that there was indeed only one person who survived the earthquake, but that was definitely not herself.
Suppress this little doubt and leave it to explore the truth later.
"Then try to save others, isn't it? You have endured this pain, so naturally you don't want others to experience it. Bai Yu, if you have this power, it is worth doing something meaningful." Viper
Bai Yu had no way of knowing what kind of mood he was feeling under that righteous mask. The only thing he could be sure of was that the other party had successfully encouraged and induced him.
"I can join forces with you to defeat Shayin in order to rescue Wen Jing. At the same time, you must agree to a condition, which is also the condition set by Luo Minmin."
"All ears."
"Save Mary from the other gods of death."
"This is not easy, and our people all hate the God of Death."
The viper did not forget to bargain.
"This is not what I have to worry about. I can convince Luo Minmin to become my medium to fight. Then you must fulfill this condition, otherwise there will be no need to discuss it."
Bai Yu put on a serious expression.
"I try my best."
"You know, I don't want this answer."
"I understand, Bai Yu, our Xingyao society rescued Mary." Although it is a relatively harsh condition, the most important thing is to be able to stop Shayin from going on a rampage.
Thus, a temporary alliance of humans, aberrants, and the God of Death was formed.
