Longmen Memoirs

The fox looked at this prestigious institution of higher learning. The students who came out from here would have a bright and promising life, but the fox himself did not have such treatment.

She is neither a graduate of a higher education institution nor a descendant of a celebrity in the upper-class elite society. She is just the most inconspicuous dust wallowing in the dirt and mortal world. She relies on her own talent and wit, including trusting a certain person. Such obsessive efforts and a little bit of insignificant luck have become what is in front of me.

Fox can imagine what kind of brilliant life Chen Huijie will have when she returns to Longmen from here in the future. She is indeed different. Whether she is willing to admit it or not, the Guard Bureau will still tolerate her because of her identity. The young lady in her dream.

The fox suddenly thought so.

She doesn't have to live a gloomy life like a rat in a stinky ditch, nor does she have to risk her life to fight for her own future. Maybe she is a little bit strong, or naive to say the least, but She will eventually discover that in the end, everything she does is still inseparable from what she was born with.

Those things that cannot be cut off.

Chen Huijie lives in her own fantasy world.

The fox never envies these, nor the innate nobility of others, nor the life of others having no worries about food and clothing.

She does not envy Chen Huijie's life.

But she hated it. No one knew her hatred. She always concealed it very well, just like when she saw Chen Huijie in college uniform walking towards her, the fox stood up with a modest and polite smile on his lips.

"Miss Chen?"

The fox understood what Chen Mo was thinking. No one knew better than him what kind of person Gouzi was. But what did Chen Huijie think? The aloof Miss Chen would give up for a friend she hadn't seen for many years, an infected person. My own brilliant life?

Fox didn't think so, and she didn't think that he, who had already made a decision, should not be implicated by these noble people anymore.

If no one likes us, then no one likes us.

"you are?"

Chen looked at the smiling Wolper in front of him with confusion. He had a gentle smile on his lips, but that smile made people subconsciously repulse him.

Perhaps her relationship with Su Li was no longer so good from now on.

"You can call me Foxhound. I came from Longmen and was entrusted to come here to meet you and deliver something to you."

The fox picked up the box and placed it gently on the coffee table in the reception room.

"what?"

"You'll understand after you see it." The fox opened the long box, and the scarlet long knife lay quietly in the box, with the smooth blade reflecting a vague reflection like a mirror.

Chen recognized the weapon almost immediately.

"Here is another letter for you." The fox said, taking the letter out of his pocket and placing it on the closed long box.

Chen Ban took the letter with confusion, but did not open it immediately. Instead, he stared at the beeswax on the envelope and confirmed the style of the letter.

Her frown slowly relaxed.

"It seems you are sure." Fox asked.

"You should already have the answer in your mind."

"It seems that he trusts you very much. Apart from these, is there anything else he wants to transfer?"

Chen's expression didn't hide the disgust. She wasn't targeting the fox in front of her, or rather, it wasn't just her.

Fox shook his head.

"Why did you come to Londinium?" Chen suddenly looked into the fox's eyes and asked, "Don't tell me it was just to give you something."

"In fact, if nothing else happens, I will leave tonight, before the caravan from Londinium returns to Longmen." The fox still looked gentle and answered slowly.

"smuggling?"

"Don't say it so harshly, Miss Chen. It's just... some business dealings. Chief Wei has managed Longmen very prosperously in these years, you should understand."

Chen Weiwei said goodbye.

The fox stood up and was about to leave.

"Wait..." Chen suddenly stopped her.

"Is there anything else? If you have a reply that you would like me to forward to you, please do so as soon as possible."

The fox opened her sleeves and looked at the time on her watch. It seemed that her trip was in a hurry as she said.

Chen hesitated and asked: "...Have there been any changes in Longmen half a year ago, no, in the past two years? I mean, changes related to the Guards Bureau and him."

"As far as I know, no. Longmen has been very peaceful in the past two years. There are very few incidents, let alone the person you mentioned."

"Oh?"

"I think if something really happens in Longmen, you should receive a letter." The fox smiled: "Since it didn't happen, it means it's not a big deal."

Chen still didn't like the fox's gentle smile. Although it wasn't disgusting, it was hard to get used to it.

"You didn't tell the truth." Chen suddenly said. She looked at the long box on the coffee table and stuffed the letter back into her bag. She didn't look at it. She didn't pay much attention to the content on it.

The sudden arrival of the fox made her feel a hint of crisis, an indescribable crisis, as if something was about to happen, but she knew nothing about it.

Chen suddenly thought of Chen Mo. She remembered that Chen Mo had said that he had returned to Longmen, she thought of Chen Mo's understatement, and she thought of the letter from Longmen. The last tone was something that only Wen Yue would use in a letter.

If there is anyone else in Longmen who can make Chen believe a little bit, maybe Wen Yue is the only one left, that obviously unfinished letter, and the information buried between the lines of the letter.

Chen finally recalled the scars hidden under his clothes and the conversation that night.

He is already infected.

[Even if you die, no one will care anymore...right?What do you think? ...Chen Huijie]

But she didn't know what she should do or what she could do. Just like that time many years ago, when she watched Xiaota being taken away, she could only cry and hope that Xiaota would come back.

But Little Tower won't come back.

it's all my fault.

He won't come back either.

The fox was stunned for a moment, and the brief absence was quickly covered up.

She looked at Chen, as if waiting for Chen's next words.

"You should have come to see me more than just." Chen said, her words very sure.

"If I don't answer your question? Does it mean, Miss Chen, that you won't let me leave easily?"

"You think it is, it is."

Chen took a breath and said with absolute certainty.

"I hope you can think about it again before saying this. This is your college. Going to war is not a good thing for you or me. I can treat those words as if I didn't hear them. After that, your life will still be the same. As usual, how about it?"

The fox said in a consulting tone, but his tone could no longer conceal the sarcasm.

Chen didn't answer. She looked at the fox and put her palm on the long box.

The long box contained Chixiao. Chen was extremely familiar with that weapon. She had spent too much time in her life focusing on these two words.

"Is this what you mean, or is it what he asked you to do to me?" Chen asked coldly, staring sharply at the fox in front of him: "What is he planning? What are you planning?!"

The fox looked at Chen, who looked cold and wary.

She suddenly smiled.

She had completed all the tasks she had come to Londinium, at least on the surface, and what happened next could only be called an accident.

Fox really doesn't like Chen, or any of them. She doesn't have much feelings for Longmen either. She just has someone who wants to die. Fox doesn't want to see him die alone, but unfortunately, she He knew in his heart that he couldn't keep her.

This is probably the most regretful thing for Fox in her life. She is always on the way to deceiving others and herself.

The goods heading from Londinium to Gantry had passed through the inspection gate as early as the morning, and now they have probably left the city border cordon and signal coverage area of ​​Londinium.

Fox had already missed the boat ticket back to Longmen, so she postponed what she was supposed to do a few days ago until today.

After all, the fox is always the first person to know him, whether before he grows up or after he grows up.

If Chen Huijie had not spoken just now, the fox would still have stayed, but what she would do might be completely different from what she would do next.

Chapter 71 Silently guarding Chen Gui ([-]) The dead child

The fox's smile flickered and quickly faded away.

She sat down again and raised her head to look at Chen Huijie who was questioning her.

After two seconds, she slowly spoke: "Before I answer your question, let me show you something first."

The fox unbuttoned the collar of his coat, revealing his shoulders that had been eroded by the Origin Stone. The ferocious black crystals on them were like the most vicious curse on the earth.

It is indeed a curse.

Chen's pupils shrank.

"Afraid?"

"Are you...infected?!"

The fox lowered his hand to cover the mark on his shoulder.

"As you can see, I am an infected person, so now you should understand that my position and yours are different. No, to be precise, you are a different Miss Chen. No matter how much you resist Longmen or Chief Wei, , but it cannot be denied that you are different from people like us." The fox crossed his hands and said: "Of course, you can also continue your dream and treat everything as if it never happened. In my opinion, for you This is the best result, but I must say, Miss Chen, the boundary between infected people and ordinary people is not something you and I can decide, and it will not change in any way because of your thoughts."

"what are you talking about?"

Chen couldn't quite understand the meaning of the fox's words, but she could hear the warning in the other party's words, as if she was warning something that she actually knew very well, but had not yet figured out how to deal with it.

She seemed to be escaping.

The fox could see it, and the fox could understand. In fact, she had been confused for a moment when she became an infected person, but she suddenly thought that that person was also an infected person, and the fox suddenly felt relieved.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

"Then let me make it clearer... Make it clear that we all know it." The fox looked at Chen, looking at her efforts to suppress the trembling of her fingers but they were still trembling slightly.

Chen seemed to already know what the fox was going to say next.

She held her breath.

The fox's words fell slowly.

"That person, I don't know what you should call him. The task I received at Longmen is to protect your safety and prevent you from being affected by unnecessary factors. He understands this very well. Miss Chen, he knows better than you. , because the way he lives is no better than you, no better than you. Of course, I say yes, but there are not many people who can compare with you." The fox said: "You can complain about your status, be disgusted with your relatives or Resistance, but this does not deny the connection between you, nor does it deny that Longmen attaches great importance to you. No matter what, you have to go back. After leaving Longmen, you can do nothing. Are you ready for this? "

Chen didn't answer.

"Listen to me, Miss Chen. There is no need for you to risk everything for an infected person. This is stupid and not worth it. You can try whatever you want after you go back. Longmen will provide you with help, but you You have to understand that once you get involved with an infected person, once you become an infected person, even Longmen can no longer help you."

"Don't act like you know me very well. I don't even know who you are and what your purpose is!" Chen said coldly: "I don't need you to worry about my affairs. Tell me what you want to do." What, I’m not that stupid, and I don’t think you’re chatting with me now.”

"But you understand what I'm going to say next." The fox replied: "It's better to say that you can guess it without me saying it."

"Aren't you from Wei Yanwu?" Chen was a little confused.

"I do belong to the Guards Bureau and obey Commander Wei's orders." Fox said.

"Then why, your attitude is not as straightforward as your words."

"Well, there are many reasons. Just like you, we were once friends." Fox looked at Chen's strange expression: "You don't know, there are many things you don't know, such as what happened in Longmen half a year ago, such as his unwillingness The things he told you, such as his relationship with Kazdaele and his plans."

"Half a year ago, a group of Sakaz attacked the lower city of Longmen, and half the police officers of the Guards Bureau were involved. I don't know what happened, but I was actually prepared at that time."

"What to prepare?"

"Be prepared to die." The fox answered simply. "I don't have much expectations for Longmen. In other words, there is nothing about that city that makes me miss it. But I survived. He may have made a deal with Chief Wei. I don't know the deal. Longmen will never have anything to do with him again." Any contact.”

"He actually wanted to kill Chief Wei. I said yes. I guess he thought about it, but he didn't do it."

The fox stared at Chen, as if reminding him of something.

She also always told lies, but Chen didn't know that.

Chen finally understood. She looked at the fox hound in front of her and thought of Longmen again. She had indeed been away for too long, and now she could only read the news about Longmen from letters.

Over the years, she has been looking for the whereabouts of Xiaota, but she has ignored many other things, ignored the liar, and ignored his feelings. Until she saw him again, she only felt happy and complained in her heart, but never thought about it. What would he think?

What happened to him again? What did he see in Longmen?

"Maybe you are right." Chen suddenly whispered: "I am indeed the luckiest one. I can't do anything after leaving Longmen. Whether I want to admit it or not, everything about me is closely related to Longmen. "

What did my words and deeds make me become?

What does empathy make me understand?

What have I lost by persevering?
