Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Do you want to date me?
It's a disaster from heaven.
An You didn't know how he had offended this old monk.
He got up from the ground and found that he had no weapons in his hands. In order to go up the mountain to play in the water, he did not bring either a sniper rifle or a pistol.
An You: "Who are you? We have no grudge against you."
Yamamoto: "You've been hiding in the temple searching for treasure these past few days. Rather than letting you discover my presence, it's better to strike first."
An You: "You are the missing monk. Sure enough, you didn't actually die. No, why did you fake your own death?"
Yamamoto: "Of course, it's to find the treasure, but I can't get it. The abbot of the temple seems to be determined to take this secret to the grave. There is obviously endless wealth, so why is he trying to stop us? I leaked the treasure. Sooner or later, the bandits will come to find it. As long as I use you, the treasure will be mine."
An You: "Is it really okay to tell me the plan like this?"
Yamamoto: "It doesn't matter. You two heard my secret today, and I don't intend to leave you alive."
The old monk seemed to have determined that they were trapped in a jar, so he was not in a hurry at this time.
An You looked terrified and said, "But I didn't want to hear it. You were the one who insisted on saying it!"
But An You, who knew so many secrets, did not feel relieved at all. Why did he talk about these topics to himself who was innocently involved?
He knew that all criminals had one thing in mind: to show off their methods. No matter who they were, if they caught someone, they would show off.
But would it be more fulfilling to show off to the police?
Yamamoto raised the dagger in his hand and faced Anyou with a smug smile on his face, "Now all I have to do is get rid of you."
Before falling, a figure flew over from behind him, snatched the weapon from Yamamoto's hand, and threw him to the ground. The movement was clean and neat. Scotland held on to the opponent's shoulders with his strength. The whole process was smooth and seamless.
An You lowered his protective arm and then remembered that he should go up and help.
There was no rope in the wild to help tie up the prisoner. An You got up from the ground and came to Scotland, ready to capture him together.
"Haha, don't feel any burden if we catch you. It's normal to be outmatched in skills, and dying on the road is understandable."
However, An You's strength was limited, and the opponent was a desperate criminal. He suddenly stepped back and hit Scotland's injured shoulder, and took advantage of the moment when the pain eased to break free from Scotland's control.
An You was hit by the collision and fell to the ground, looking at Scotland in confusion.
"Run away."
Scotland: "That's right, but there's nothing we can do if we run away. Don't chase us. Let's go back first."
He turned to look at Scotland, who was still reeking of blood, and asked, "Are you feeling okay? Do you want me to help you?"
Scotland gasped, "Okay, let's get down the mountain first."
The journey down the mountain was not easy. Scotland's body almost weighed on his shoulders, and he was a little unable to carry it. He was swaying all over, and it was dark. The road was not very clear.
Fortunately, the fireworks outside were still bright, and the bright fireworks illuminated the road, carrying Scotland down the mountain.
After finally getting down the mountain, the fireworks had just stopped. An You felt a little regretful and glanced at the horizon, but there was nothing there.
Scotland suddenly spoke up, "I'm so sorry that I didn't let you see the full fireworks."
An You shook her head. "You're already injured, so what's so interesting about fireworks?"
Scotland was silent for a moment. "In your heart, I am more important than fireworks, right?"
An You: "It's obvious, Scotland. I know you're bleeding, but don't get sentimental. We're almost at the temple."
The sky at the foot of the mountain had become brighter. The first thing I looked at was the temple. Zhu Xingda was standing in the courtyard with a calm gaze.
The corpses of the bandits were lying on the ground, and An You knew that Zhu Xingda had to deal with these people alone.
My first reaction was admiration, followed by a sense of shame for not doing my job properly.
But it soon became a matter of course. I am the leader and the future star of the organization. What is there to feel guilty about?
Since Zhu Xingdai has entered his organization, he must obey him, and the sniper is just for him to use. And they are also dealing with Yamamoto.
An You yelled, "Come and help Zhu Xingda."
Zhu Xingda saw them and came over to ask, "What happened? Are you injured after going up the mountain?"
An You: "It's hard to explain. We were in the mountains and were attacked from behind. Bring me some gauze. I want to bandage him."
An You helped Scotland back to the Zen room for rest. After a while, Zhu Xingda came over with clean gauze and medicine.
Facing the knife wound on his arm, An You was in a dilemma. He grimaced and dared not move forward.
Scotland: "What's wrong?"
An You: "I have a habit of feeling pain for others, and it hurts so much. My arm is already hurting too."
Scotland pulled his arm over, squeezing his palm and kneading it gently to ease his anxiety, his voice gentle.
"I know, but you can't bandage it with your eyes closed. Please be patient for a moment. The wound is on me, so it won't hurt."
An You: “Oh.”
Scotland unzipped his jacket and took off his coat, revealing the black tights underneath. He had a great figure, and the tighter the clothes, the more bulging they looked.
An You looked at it for a while to divert her attention and felt a little refreshed.
Scotland noticed his gaze and lowered it to his chest. He coughed twice in embarrassment. "The clothes are stuck to the flesh. Cut the sleeves off first and apply the medicine later."
An You nodded.
Scotland suddenly said towards the door, "By the way, Mr. Zhu Xing, could you please go to the kitchen and boil some hot water?"
Zhu Xingda went to carry out the order in silence.
Scotland suddenly called out to him again, looking apologetic and saying, "By the way, could you please close the door? I probably can't stand the wind right now."
Zhu Xingda paused, then turned back and helped close the door. But his eyes were full of meaning as he left.
An You was too lazy to guess what others were thinking, so he picked up the scissors from the table. In order to avoid causing secondary damage to the wound, he cut at a point further out.
Starting from the shoulder, cut down almost the entire sleeve.
Showing off strong, well-trained arms.
There was a deep wound on his arm that couldn't stop bleeding. An You carefully sprinkled medicine powder on it with shaking hands.
His movements had never been so light, even lighter than his hands when he was threading the needle for his grandmother.
Scotland remained silent the entire time, as if he had long been accustomed to enduring the pain.
An You couldn't help but joke, "Scotland, is it really not painful for you? You're so patient, even the Ninja Turtles would be impressed."
Scotland's forehead was covered in cold sweat. "Yes, it hurts, but I'm used to it. If I want to avoid physical pain in the future, I need to improve my strength even more. Otherwise, one day, I will be destroyed."
An You saw that he clenched his fists in pain. He knew that some medicines were like this, and they would definitely be painful when sprinkled. An You carefully blew on his wound.
"But you were injured this time because of me. Don't stand in my way next time. You don't have to be so conscientious. The organization didn't force you to protect my safety, so you don't have to be so responsible."
Scotland: "I am willing to protect you."
An You was stunned: "Don't take risks next time. Even if you serve the organization with all your heart and soul and protect me, there will be no bonus. Do you understand?"
Scotland blinked, as if frightened by his seriousness, and signaled that he understood.
When Scotland's injuries showed signs of being contained, An You finally remembered to ask about the progress of the mission. "By the way, how was your investigation going while we were away?"
Although his greeting was a little late and he didn't seem to care much, Zhu Xingdai didn't seem to mind.
Moroboshi Dai: "We have found the hiding place of the treasure."
An You: "Really, where is it?"
Moroboshi Dai: "Underground, in the tunnel beneath our feet, but are you sure you want to see it now?"
An You: "Look, let's finish the investigation as soon as possible and go home as soon as possible. However, Scotland is injured and can't continue the operation. I will complete the investigation mission in Scotland's place."
Zhu Xingda's eyes fell on him, "Don't we need to tell Scotland?"
An You turned around and looked at Scotland in the room. "No, tell him. He's definitely worried about me. I'll just quietly help him solve the next problem. Scotland will definitely be so touched later, thinking how handsome my friend is!"
There was no extra expression on Zhu Xingda's face. He didn't understand his way of thinking but respected it. He just put one hand in his pocket and expressed his opinion with one word, "Okay."
An You borrowed a candle from the temple and followed Zhu Xingda. In the dark and damp underground passage, Zhu Xingda walked in front to lead the way.
An You followed behind holding a candle. There was no light in the gloomy corridor, and the sound of their footsteps echoed in the empty underground. An You had originally kept a distance from Zhu Xingda, but as the air grew colder, she finally couldn't help but get closer.
An You rubbed her arms, "Do you feel it's getting cold here?"
Zhu Xingda, "Maybe."
As I walked through a corridor, I suddenly felt a strong sense of being stared at. I looked up and saw that the wall was inlaid with a whole wall of Buddha statues. In the pitch-black room, the solemn Buddha statues gave people a sense of coldness.
In order to ease the loneliness, An You returned to his old job and started telling jokes.
"These past few days, I've been wanting to say three words to you. I was afraid that if I did, we wouldn't even be able to be ordinary friends. But I couldn't control my emotions, so I finally mustered up the courage to say a word to you."
Zhu Xingda looked sideways, his eyes were cold, as if hiding endless wind and snow. Zhu Xingda said, "Hmm? What did you say?"
An You sneered, "Borrow some money."
Zhu Xingda pondered for a moment after hearing this, then fumbled in his clothes for a while and took out a pack of cigarettes and a ten-thousand-yuan note. "I don't have that much on me, I'll give it to you when I get back."
Under great pressure, An You accepted the money and said, "Thank you, but something doesn't feel right."
Zhu Xingda: "Oh?"
This shouldn't be the reaction. Why didn't he get furious? If the same joke was used to tease Gin, he would have been scolded by now. This is the first time I've seen such a stable man with such high defense after teasing someone who is easily defended.
An You: "Actually, the three words I want to say are, I love you!"
Moroboshi Dai: "So, you want to abandon Scotland and date me?"
An You choked instantly, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm joking with you, don't tell the truth."
Zhu Xingda: "I was just joking."
An You: "That's great. And real men should just joke around. Don't always bring up Scotland, abandonment, or talk of having sex. He's not the bad guy you say he is."
