On the terrace, the water was cold and the wind was cool and the moon was bright. Luo Qiu, accompanied by a maid, seemed to have been sitting here for a while. He also drank half of the beer in the cup placed on the small coffee table.
The slightly bitter taste was swirling between Luo Qiu's lips and teeth.
He looked at Ellie as if he was responding to the way she looked at him not long ago when she was dragged away from him by two police officers.
"I...am I ugly now?"
It was as if a fire stick had been inserted into the throat, and the sound of the burned vocal cords vibrated. Ellie also looked at this mysterious young man and asked again: "Am I ugly now?"
After Luo Qiu thought seriously for a while, he said: "A few months ago, I encountered something even more ugly..."
Boss Luo recalled the scene when he saw the little butterfly demon for the first time, "The whole body was covered with pustules, and some of the seas had burst. Believe me, that look was at least much scarier than what you have now. Of course, from a human perspective
look."
"Really?" Ai Li stopped looking at Luo Qiu.
She looked at the lake and said quietly: "I can't imagine it. I'm afraid that if I think about it, it will appear in front of me... I don't know which side is the real one. I just saw myself in the mirror,
I don’t know whether the thing in the mirror is real or not. But..."
After being silent for a while, Ellie finally said softly: "But it's really ugly. It's beyond my imagination. It's really..."
Ellie lowered her head and approached the wooden board at the edge of the terrace. Through the light projected from the house, she could vaguely see the reflection of the lake. Looking at her reflection, she said, "It's really, so ugly."
"Can you describe it?" Luo Qiu stood up, walked to Ellie's side, and watched the reflection on the lake with her.
Ellie stretched out her hand, pointed at the eyes on the reflection and said: "This is my jealousy. You see, it cracked and became ferocious. I knew clearly that Gloria was really my good friend, and I never thought about it.
She wants to get something from me, but I can't help but be jealous of her."
Ellie pointed to the mouth of the terrifying face in the reflection again, "This is my fraud. You see, it is also cracked and out of control. I obviously don't like Ryan, but I never told him personally.
, I have always enjoyed his kindness to me. I am obviously very familiar with Gloria, but I always have a smile on my face."
So she turned her finger in a circle on the reflection, encompassing the entire reflection. After a while, she whispered softly: "This is me...the jealous, dishonest me...the real me."
After that, Ellie didn't speak again.
Luo Qiu stood with her like this for a long time.
Suddenly, Ellie spoke softly and said: "Can I get rid of you for the last time? Use everything I have left."
"Of course. We never refuse our guests' requests." Luo Qiu smiled.
"I'm so bad." Ellie smiled bitterly, and her split lips made the bitter smile look even more terrifying. "I've hurt too many people, even myself... I can't look back.
But at least..."
She stopped talking and remained silent. Although the cracked eye sockets were ferocious, they seemed to have soft light moving, "But at least the little guy who is willing to give half of his heart to me can live a good life."
"Do you think of yourself as her? I understand." Luo Qiu nodded gently.
"Thanks."
Ai Li turned around and looked at Luo Qiu. Her split eyes and lips were slowly healing.
When I smile, I feel like I have returned to the past.
Ellie closed her eyes and let her body fall freely into the lake. In this way, she slowly sank into the dark, bottomless lake.
The calm lake surface was still calm, but there was a slight pink light. After a flash, a ball of light slowly emerged from the lake water, and finally fell into Luo Qiu's palm.
The little girl Lina was still hugging her pillow and walked downstairs at some point.
She looked a little pale, holding a pillow and walking on the ground with bare feet. Her pajamas seemed to be more wrinkled. She walked to Luo Qiu and You Ye and said pitifully: "Big brother, big sister, my mother is gone."
My father is gone too. Do you know where they are?"
Luo Qiu put away the ball of light on his hand, reached out and grabbed Little Lina's palm, and said softly: "I'll take you back to your mother's place."
"Really?"
Luo Qiu said nothing, took Lina's hand, and walked out the door.
…
…
Several kilometers away.
On the road by the lake, an ambulance and a police car were parked. In front of this car, there seemed to be three different cars.
They were knocked down together, and there was blood all around. Several ambulance personnel were busy moving the bodies of the two police officers out of a police car among the three cars that collided.
One of the medical staff shook his head and looked at the two policemen who had moved out. "He is not breathing. He is confirmed dead."
Later, they took out a girl who was still wearing a prison uniform from a private car and laid her flat on the ground. They also took out a couple and a couple from another private car.
The body of a little girl.
The two policemen were dead, and the doctor who came with the ambulance was giving first aid to the girl in a prison uniform and another family of three.
"Doctor! This gentleman's heart has stopped!" A nurse said helplessly at this time.
"Doctor! The girl's heart has stopped too!"
"This lady is breathing!" Another nurse said quickly at this time.
The doctor didn't have much joy, because the little life on his hands still hadn't improved... She was too seriously injured!
"Don't give up! You still have family members! Don't give up!!"
The doctor drank loudly and kept doing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the little girl. While he squeezed the little girl's chest hard and regularly, he said quickly: "Listen, kid! Wake up! I know you are strong enough.
Yes! My child, listen to me, you still have to go to school, you still have to meet a lot of friends, you still have a whole life waiting for you, don’t stop here. My child! Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe..."
…
Beside the highway, Alex was closing his eyes, showing an unusually intoxicated expression.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
"It seems that Mr. Alex has already finished his dinner, right?"
"It seems that Boss Luo Qiu has also done a good business, right?"
When he turned around, he saw Luo Qiu.
Boss Luo was holding a little girl's hand, but Luo Qiu didn't look at him, he just looked at the scene where the incident occurred. Alex smiled coquettishly.
He took off his hat and said in a humble tone: "Believe me, this is really just an accident. At this fork in the road, the cars of Miss Ellie and Mr. Marken, who were being chased by the police car, met at the fork in the road.
It was hit, and the police car behind it was not spared."
Alex narrowed his eyes and said, "I called the ambulance right away. But as you can see, these people have all left their souls."
"It's okay." Luo Qiu said calmly.
Luo Qiu lowered his head, patted Little Lina on the shoulder, pointed forward, and said softly: "It's time to go back, your mother is waiting for you."
"Brother, where is Mr. Monster?" Little Lina took two steps forward, then suddenly turned back and asked.
Luo Qiu said softly: "There are no monsters. Monsters are just things we came up with ourselves. Go back, otherwise it will be too late."
Little Lina nodded and slowly walked towards herself.
Seeing a group of medical staff dancing and cheering for the lives saved, Alex took his hat back.
He looked at Luo Qiu and said, "Then, I really say goodbye this time, Boss Luo Qiu."
He gradually retreated towards the woods behind him, and his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness.
He was always traveling with the big suitcase he was carrying, and he never stayed anywhere for too long.
Luo Qiu silently looked at the place where Alex finally disappeared, shook his head, and muttered: "I'm not afraid of being full after eating so much."
…
Alex probably couldn't hear this sentence.
Because he was already several kilometers away, leaning on the edge of this dark lakeside, feeling very good. He just went on an errand and had a delicious meal.
"The successor of the former boss is much more interesting." Alex smiled, but his smile stiffened.
Alex subconsciously covered his stomach, showed a hint of pain, and knelt on one knee. It took a while before he seemed to catch his breath.
He looked at the calm lake and smiled bitterly: "It should be... much scarier. Isn't this too stingy? It hurts..."
Dream-eating tapir... Mr. Alex, you have a stomachache.
…
…
"Master, prepare the hot water for bathing."
The maid came out of the darkness, but she found her master squatting on the side of the road.
Luo Qiu picked some flowers that looked like they had just bloomed a short time ago from the wild flowers that grew along the road. Finally, when his hands were full of flowers, Luo Qiu also stood up.
Holding these flowers, he walked to the accident scene and came to Ellie's side, who was lying quietly.
The body has already cooled down.
Without breathing or life, she seemed to be peaceful, with a faint smile on her lips. Luo Qiu gently folded her hands in front of her belly, and then put down the flowers in her hands.
"Miss Ellie, she's actually very pretty." Youye said while accompanying Boss Luo.
"you also have."
Boss Luo seemed to be in a good mood, so he gave the remaining flowers to the maid lady.
"I'll find a place to plug it in," she said softly.
"Go back. It's almost dawn."
…
…
When I was a child.
"This is a cookie my mother made for me because I was obedient. Isn't it delicious? Do you want to eat it?"
"OK!"
"Then I'll give you half, but if you want to be friends with me, is that okay?"
"Uh-huh!"
"But I have agreed that if I have difficulties in the future, you will help me! Of course, if you have difficulties, I will also help you! Don't hide anything! Because this is a good friend! You will be my best friend for the rest of my life.
