Koi Survival Code

Chapter 20 The Uninhabited Island's Brother
After hearing his words, a pair of small hands that were as cold as if they were not alive, lightly wrapped around his neck, as if afraid of hurting him, and with careful probing, gently clasped them tightly.

No. 1 lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the pair of pale hands clasped together, and slightly bent his lips.

"gone."

With a reminder, he easily picked up the silent petite girl on his back and strode towards the camp.

"elder brother……"

Halfway through, a sound smaller than a mosquito rang faintly in his ears.

In the next second, it was covered by rushing rain, and disappeared without a sound, as if it was his hallucination.

His footsteps subconsciously paused, he turned his head to feel the thin breath on his neck, and curled his lips slightly.

"Ah."

……

Back at the camp, No. 1 temporarily put Qiao Nuo Nuo on the bed sheet that was ravaged by the short and fat man.

As soon as he came back at noon, he found that Qiao Nuonuo was not there, and the camp was in a mess.

Just knew what might have happened.

He didn't bother to clean up, and immediately went out to find someone.

Now the man has been found, but there is not even a place to stay in the camp.

"Change into clean clothes, do you want me to help?"

No. 1 supported Qiao Nuonuo, who had blank eyes, frowned, and looked at her worriedly.

"Little friend, I can't sleep now. You got wet in the rain, so you need to change your wet clothes first."

He didn't know her name yet, so he subconsciously called her by the name he usually called her in his heart.

Qiao Nuonuo seemed to have heard his call, and there was a gleam of expression in his lifeless eyes.

"No. 1, No. 1..."

The girl's voice was hoarse, her expression was still a little slack, and she leaned weakly on his arm.

Seeing her regain some consciousness, No. 1 breathed a sigh of relief.

"You change your clothes first, I'll go out for a while, call me if you need help."

After No. 1 finished speaking and helped her sit firmly, she let go of her hand and got up to walk into the rain.

"Cough...cough...cough..."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Qiao Nuonuo subconsciously grabbed the corner of his clothes.

It's just that in her desperation, just as she was about to speak, she burst into a heart-piercing cough.

"What's the matter? Don't worry."

No. 1 felt the weak pulling force coming from the clothes, and did not dare to forcefully pull her away.

Hearing her cough, he frowned and squatted down in front of her again, comforting her softly while holding her breath.

His voice was still very cold, but in Qiao Nuonuo's ears, it brought an inexplicable sense of relief.

"Don't, ahem...don't go out!"

Qiao Nuonuo's pale little face revealed an abnormal blush due to excessive force.

She was obviously extremely weak, but she still stubbornly refused to let go.

No. 1 stared at her intently for a while, and finally sighed softly, saying:

"I won't go, I'll go to light up the fire first, you change your clothes quickly, huh?"

His voice was clear and cold, but unconsciously there was a trace of helpless connivance.

Qiao Nuonuo looked up at him in a daze, nodded hesitantly, and finally let go of the corner of his clothes.

With his back to her, No. 1 sat in front of the extinguished fire, ready to rekindle the fire.

He seemed to be concentrating on his eyes wholeheartedly, but he didn't know where his mind had gone.

The condition of the children is really bad.

Thinking that the man had a gun and a knife, he broke into the camp majestically while he was away!
I still don't know how the kid got rid of him...

His face was a little gloomy.

It's no wonder that she was determined not to let herself leave for half a step just now, and she presumably left her alone in the morning, casting a shadow on her.

There was pity in the man's heart, but he didn't realize what such emotion meant to a person like him.

Just as he was thinking, there was a rustling sound behind him.

No. 1 has received special training, and can easily distinguish the behavior of the other party only by the sound.

He felt a little embarrassed, but he couldn't hold back the subconscious worry in his heart.

No. 1 touched her chest with a strange expression, but her ears were always erect, listening carefully to the movement behind her, to prevent her from being inconvenient to move and any accidents.

He touched his ears helplessly, feeling that the roots of his ears were hot for no reason.

The fire was lit, and the shed suddenly became much brighter.

No. 1 looked at the pot that had been put on the fire and there was still a lump of vermicelli that had fallen off.

Not wasting it, he put the pot back on the fire and waited slowly for it to boil.

After a while, Qiao Nuonuo's thin voice came from behind.

No. 1 responded, and turned around to find that she had changed back to the suit she wore when she entered the system.

He got up and went over, helped Qiao Nuonuo to sit by the fire, and let her warm up.

The scorching temperature instantly dispelled the lingering coldness around her.

Under the huge temperature difference, her body trembled unconsciously.

"Are you hurt?"

He sat beside her, looked at her pale face, and asked with some concern.

"Ah."

Qiao Nuonuo responded weakly, pointing to his back.

"Let me see."

No. 1 frowned, and stood behind Qiao Nuonuo with a serious expression, trying to lift her clothes.

Qiao Nuonuo pursed his lips hesitantly, but his movements were a step faster than his brain.

She pressed his big palm on her shoulder, turned her head, and looked at him silently.

The cold little hand was pale with excessive blood loss, covering his big warm hand softly and bonelessly.

The huge contrast caused No. 1's light gray pupils to shrink subconsciously.

Obviously her little strength was not taken seriously by him at all, but at this moment, it was as heavy as Mount Tai, making him completely motionless.

He subconsciously looked at her.

There was a trace of defense in the dark eyes, like a frightened kitten, wary of everything around it.

"It's okay, I just want to see if the wound is okay?"

No. 1 stretched out his hand to shake her shoulder comfortingly, reassuring her in a rare soft tone.

The warm and dry breath passed to Qiao Nuonuo's body through the thin fabric, and she was in a trance again.

Qiao Nuonuo was silent, and No. 1 didn't make a sound, and looked straight into her dark eyes.

"Don't believe me?"

he asked softly.

Qiao Nuonuo shook his head subconsciously, a trace of confusion and belated fear flashed across his eyes.

She murmured her lips, and after a long while, she mustered up her courage and said in a slightly trembling voice,
"1, number 1, I killed someone..."

She raised her head slightly, looking straight at the man standing behind her.

Her expression seemed to be very calm, but her timid voice easily exposed her.

"Well, it's not your fault."

Number 1 was slightly surprised by the ending, but he didn't show it on his face.

He looked back at her calmly, his gray eyes seemed to see her broken and frightened heart through her calm appearance.

Hearing his words, a gleam of water quickly appeared in her eyes.

"why?"

She blinked hard, restraining the mist rising from her eyes.

"Aren't you afraid of me? I killed someone..."

The calmness in her eyes seemed to be broken by him all of a sudden.

Even though she tried her best to keep her calm, No. 1 could easily see her despair, fear, and desperation through her eyes...

His heart suddenly felt sore and swollen, but he focused on the girl in front of him who was in urgent need of comfort, subconsciously ignoring himself.

He didn't know that this feeling was called, distressed.

"will not."

No. 1 gave a low laugh, and looked softly at this fragile yet tenacious contradictory girl.

"I have also killed people, or in the real world, but they are all heinous gangsters, and it is my responsibility to kill them! Will you be afraid of me because of this?"

For the first time, he spoke about his real career.

Still in this case.

Qiao Nuonuo froze for a moment, and the tears that were about to burst into his eyes disappeared in an instant because of the shock of his words.

After a long time, No. 1 curled his lips as he watched the girl who slowly figured it out and calmed down.

"Can I help you look at the wound now?"

"Also, call me in the future, brother!"

His slightly teasing tone made Qiao Nuonuo's cheeks warm up, her dark pupils turned erratically, and her mind was dizzy, she subconsciously nodded obediently.

No. 1 looked at her dazed look, but still refused to meet his eyes, and felt a little funny in his heart.

He coughed lightly, covered up the smile on his lips, and straightened her body with a little force.

Qiao Nuonuo was still struggling with that 'brother' at the moment, so he obediently followed his strength and sat up straight.

In a trance, I still remember holding the cloth strips and liquor left over from the injury of No. 1 before.

No. 1 pursed his lips slightly, and gently lifted the clothes on her back, and then his face became serious.

His gray eyes were slightly cold, and his sharp eyes looked at the white to somewhat transparent back.

Starting from the shoulder blade, a long knife wound slanting all the way to the armpit on the other side came into view at once.

Probably because the knife edge is very sharp, the edges of the wound are very neat.

Because Qiao Nuonuo dodged for a while, the cut wasn't very deep, but it was soaked in the rain all the time, and the edge of the wound was already a little white.

Based on No. 1's experience, he reckoned that if this slash was carried out, the little girl would be cut in half horizontally!

His eyes were a little gloomy, and he raised his heart to a higher level regarding the danger the girl had experienced.

The blood has stopped by itself, but there are coagulated blood scabs everywhere, which looks shocking.

No. 1's face was a bit ugly, he didn't even notice the pair of beautiful butterfly bones on the thin back, trembling slightly because of the pain.

The wound that almost ran through the entire back was reflected in the gray eyes, and there was a trace of complexity in the bottom of the eyes.

There is self-blame, pity... It seems that there are some other things.

No. 1 frowned subconsciously, but began to help her clean the wound with very skillful hands, removing the blood scabs around her.

"Call out when it hurts."
