Arknights is too real, right?

Xia Feng, are you going to disappear from this world again without anyone knowing?

Under the shining of the setting sun, the two people by the river look like the male and female protagonists of literary youth novels. The difference is that they are two men.

Xia Feng looked at Zhang Yuan quietly.

Why do you ask that?

Zhang Yuan took two steps forward, clenched his fists and stood in front of Xia Feng.

You've been acting weird since a few days ago. Do you think I didn't notice it? What was splattered on the walls of your house wasn't some bullshit tomato juice at all. It was blood. It was also on the floor and bathroom. Although you've dealt with it, it's still... There were traces of blood.”

so what?

You haven't come to class since the last time we talked about those lines for the second grade with me on the rooftop of the school, and no one answered your phone. After that, I went to your house every day to confirm. I can be sure that there is no one in your house. , then I put a piece of tape on the crack of your door.

Zhang Yuan grabbed Xia Feng's collar.

Tell me, why was the tape still in its original position when I came to your house this morning? Your door was never opened at all. How did you get in? Did you climb through the window? Your house is on the fourth floor.

Xia Feng was stunned by Zhang Yuan's analysis. After a moment, he burst out laughing.

Hahahahaha.

You are so ridiculous.

Xia Feng and Zhang Yuan have been best friends since high school. The reason why they became friends is because they know each other and they are on the same page.

The great thing about Zhang Yuan is that he can get along with anyone, whether he is a top student or a top student, a scumbag or a scumbag. In the process of getting along with him, he can forcibly assimilate the other person into a scumbag like himself, and then use Gain the initiative in a more superficial way.

In the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Yuan is a loser who is not serious all day long and only knows how to make jokes.

But Xia Feng understands that this is called great wisdom and foolishness.

Just like he knew Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan had already understood his character through the years of inseparable relationship.

Under the influence of Zhang Yuan, although Xia Feng is a little smooth on the surface and has some success in complaining, the stubbornness in his heart cannot be changed. As long as it is something he believes in, he will go all the way to the dark side. , even if it seems to outsiders that he has courage but lacks IQ, or even that the gain is not worth the loss, he will still be stubborn and stubborn.

He has his own unique values ​​and will not be affected by the public's evaluation. This is what Zhang Yuan admires about Xia Feng.

Abandoning conventions, not liking to follow rules, and making choices that others think are wrong but that you think are right are undoubtedly necessary to become a rule maker.

A person's energy is limited, and Xia Feng cannot take care of both worlds at the same time, but Zhang Yuan can clearly see his changes from the perspective of a bystander.

Perhaps, Zhang Yuan had already noticed something when he was on the rooftop of the school that day. Those words were not an impromptu performance by No. 2 Middle School, but Zhang Yuan saw Xia Feng's loss. Even if he didn't know what happened, he still thought Another form of encouragement for him.

This is what brothers are.

Perhaps after Zhang Yuan saw the changes in Xia Feng today, he finally couldn't help but ask out the doubts in his heart, because Xia Feng seemed to be close to death.

Xia Feng, don't fucking laugh. I'm leaving my words behind today. If you don't make it clear, I will follow you and you won't be able to go anywhere.

Hahahahahaha.

Pretend to be mentally ill with me, okay? Then I'll laugh with you, hahahahaha.

Okay, I'll tell you now.

Ha ha ha ha?

Xia Feng looked at Zhang Yuan with a smile, and there was a hint of relief in his smile.

Actually, I have no intention of hiding it from you. In other words, you are the only one in the world who will believe what I say. Well, I will tell you everything now.

Rather than telling Zhang Yuan the truth, to Xia Feng, this was more like a confession.

To him, the world is like a snowstorm that covers the sky and the moon, and he is the shaky flame in the snow, and he is incompatible with this world.

If he told Zhang Yuan this bizarre experience, mentally, it would be like adding a piece of firewood to the flame, freeing him from the most miserable loneliness.

Xia Feng and Zhang Yuan sat side by side by the river.

Xia Feng's tone was calm, as if he was telling a vague fantasy story.

It all starts with my mobile phone.

cell phone?

kindness.

Later, Xia Feng inexplicably traveled to the world of Terra, met Ling Dong and Zhi, joined Weina's Glasgow Gang, and went to Mandel City with Brother ACE. The infected organization [Hessen], the bloody battle with Red Knife Big Bob and others, Xia Feng told everything like telling a story, calmly telling these experiences that ordinary people would never believe.

It wasn't until Ifrit appeared at the end that he was bounced back into the world when the natural disaster struck, and the story came to an abrupt end.

Xia Feng breathed a long sigh of relief and felt relaxed.

During the whole process of Xia Feng's narration, Zhang Yuan's eyes widened for a while, and his mouth widened for a while. His expression was as wonderful as a Panda 86 performing five consecutive U-shaped hairpins on his face. Until Xia Feng finished speaking, Zhang Yuan's expression returned to normal.

Okay, I'm done. Believe it or not, I...

Zhang Yuan raised his hand.

Wait a minute, I have a question. No, there are too many questions and I don't want to ask them anymore. Xia Feng, I just want to confirm one thing with you.

What's up.

You will go back.

kindness.

I saw stars shining in Zhang Yuan's eyes, like a child begging his grandfather to take him to the playground.

Can you take me there too?

.

To be honest, based on his understanding of Zhang Yuan, Xia Feng thought that Zhang Yuan would easily accept this fact. After all, this was what he said himself.

But he didn't expect that Zhang Yuan would ask to go together!

Are you going too?

Yeah.

Aren't you afraid of becoming infected?

I'm afraid, but I still want to go. After all, there are my beloved operators in that world.

Seeing Zhang Yuan's longing and determined expression, Xia Feng seemed to understand something.

If from the beginning, the person chosen by that mobile phone was not him but Zhang Yuan, this might be another story.

If it were Zhang Yuan, he might find a way to avoid falling into danger, and he might do better than himself now. If it were Zhang Yuan, perhaps they would exchange positions by the river, and he would be like a crazy fan. Listening to Zhang Yuan telling this fantastic story with stars in his eyes.

However, there is no possibility in life.

He was the one chosen by the mobile phone. Yes, he would not take Zhang Yuan to the world of Terra or put his good brothers in danger, because this is his Ark of Tomorrow alone.

He will not involve Zhang Yuan, at least not now. If one day in the future his power can be invincible in the world of Terra, he may take Zhang Yuan to travel if conditions permit.

Of course, that's assuming he survives until then.
