This template, it's a bit of a loss to be a hero

Chapter 173 Now is the time to shatter illusions!

The atmosphere seemed to freeze all of a sudden, even though 1 question marks rose in Yin Chengyi's heart, he still forcibly held back and did not speak.As a child who grew up in a single-parent family, he especially understands this kind of psychology—it seems that when he is asked about his mother by others, such as "your mother must be like this", there will always be a tingling feeling that is difficult to clarify , as if the heart was pricked by an invisible thorn.For children like them, parents are not a topic that can be easily touched, so it is better not to ask.

Of course, if the squad leader took the initiative to speak, that would be another matter.

"My dad... used to be a chemistry teacher in high school, but he not only knows chemistry, but he is also very good at other subjects. But he doesn't teach us much homework. He usually waits for my grades to drop by ten before he will give me Tutoring. Every time he finishes teaching, my grades are like a rocket, and I go to the top ten in the class. I like that very much-with such good grades, I will talk about learning musical instruments and dancing , Mom won't object."

"Everyone thinks it's unbelievable. In fact, Dad just flipped through the book and told me in his own language what will be said in class later. For complicated things, explain clearly in the simplest words. Whether it is physics, chemistry, or even the most abstract mathematics...he has his own understanding. Believe it or not, even if he is asked to build rockets now, he will Can you come up with a set of your own things, and what you say is logical?"

Speaking of her father, the usually vigorous and resolute squad leader seemed to be five years younger all of a sudden, turning into a carefree little girl, needless to say how sweet her smile was.

In addition to the novelty, Yin Chengyi felt a faint heartache in his heart.

Father, is an unattainable role for any growing girl.

In a similar situation, she still has Big Worm and Little Liquor, but she... only has one younger sister who needs her to take care of.When something really happened, there was no one to discuss it.

……

"I remember very clearly that the month after I passed the senior high school entrance examination and was preparing to enter the province's youth dance competition, my father, as an 'excellent teacher' at the city level, was going to a small country in Eastern Europe to exchange and study with the teachers there. Activities. There are more than ten teachers in the same company, and he is the youngest."

"At that time, I still thought that I must practice hard, and when my father came back from Eastern Europe, I would show him the first prize and give him a surprise...but..."

The smile on her face gradually froze, her eyebrows frowned, and her voice swirled in her throat, "After he went there, for some reason, the superpowers in that small country suddenly rioted, and overnight, the regime changed and the country was divided. These visiting teachers were not spared... In the beginning, there were sporadic news, and later, this small country suddenly became a hell on earth, as if it had disappeared from the world. audio."

"My dad... has been there for almost three years because of this incident..."

……

small country.

A riot of superhumans.

Everything sounds so familiar, in Xutian Palace, Cuimang really said so.At that time, Yin Chengyi had heard about it, but he didn't take it too seriously.But he never thought that the drastic changes in the world would be so close to him.

"[Raptor]."

"……what?"

"The mercenary organizations of ability users around the world, it is said that their targets have always been those small countries with insufficient armed forces. Guide the ability users there to launch a coup, establish a regime that belongs to the ability users, and then sit back and reap the rewards." Make a lot of war money." Yin Chengyi said softly, "Squad leader, the country your father visited...maybe they are behind the scenes."

"..."

"Squad leader?"

----

The mountain wind blew past, and the unusual warmth made her a little dizzy, and she couldn't tell the difference between east, west, and north.In this state of half-dream and half-awake, Zhao Yichen sneezed, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure standing under a gloomy tree.

Even though it was far away, she still recognized this face at a glance, and immediately stopped, showing a funny expression of astonishment on her normally dignified face, with her mouth open enough to stuff an entire egg.

"Are you all right?"

Following her line of sight, Yin Chengyi saw nothing, except for the cold wind blowing the leaves, which made the few sparse stars in the night sky even colder.

Looking at the squad leader's appearance, his whole body is tense, his eyes are straight, and his hair stands up, as if he is completely separated from the people around him by a whole world.As soon as the symptoms appeared, Yin Chengyi immediately realized that something was wrong. He was exactly the same as Lin Yimiao and Li Shupei when they were first recruited. name.

No response at all.

Zhao Yichen's eyes were empty, as if his soul had been taken away.

……

"dad……"

A line of clear tears poured out subconsciously from the eyes, and slid down the side face.Girls who are usually extraordinarily strong, rarely show a vulnerable side, but they look extraordinarily moving.

In her vision, her father was still the same as before, with a steady side-parted hairstyle, a clean black suit, a white shirt, meticulously polished leather shoes, and a black handbag in his hand. The way he looked when he came out of school.

At that moment, the heart almost stopped beating, and the good-smelling air broke through the brain, and also broke the last bit of reason.

The girl broke away from Yin Chengyi's hand, stumbled, and ran towards her father.

step.

two steps.

Three steps.

Four steps.

……

When she reached the fifth step, the girl with tears in her eyes suddenly stopped and stared at her father in the distance.

Unwillingness and pain melted into tears, which she resolutely wiped away.

"You are fake."

As soon as these four words were uttered, the father under the tree became blurred, like the snowflake screen that often appears on old TVs when they are not well connected.

"Zizzizi..."

There was a strange piercing sound, and his father's face melted little by little like a long-burning white candle, and the flesh and blood mixed with the bone marrow of the fiasco, peeled off his face little by little.The squad leader did not use any words to describe the face exposed inside, because it was not a face at all, but a mass of darkness, like oil, but more viscous than that, with countless slender black tentacles wriggling in the darkness Moving, resonating, blending the evil words into the wind.

"Really, fake... is it that important?"

"Follow your heart, obey your wishes...Dedicate your whole body and mind, [Hei Tai Sui] will naturally give you the same joy back."

The darkness opened up, gradually flooding the surrounding scenery.In such darkness, there was an orange light directly ahead.

That's candlelight.

Under the shadow of the lights, I, my mother, and my father... are all there, celebrating my sister's birthday.Under their gaze, the younger sister smiled happily, put her hands together, closed her eyes, as if wishing something.

"call……"

The candle was blown out, and with it the only source of light.

……

"There is no truth or falsehood in this world." The half-father-like, half-other voice sounded again, as if whispering in the ear, "Seeing is true, hearing is true, tongue is true, nose is true... …I let you hear, see, smell, taste, everything can be real."

"Hug me and accept my hug..."

"I can grant all your wishes."

----

The messenger in the darkness opened his hands to her.

……

Take a deep breath.

Gathering his mind, the squad leader walked slowly in front of him, mustered up the courage to look, and seemed to see the faint smile under the black cloak.

Raise your hand.

"Snapped--!"

The girl exhausted all her strength, and slapped him hard on the face with a big slap.
