Chapter 97: Suicide Note
"I will."
Xia Chenxi patted Ye Xuan's back gently. The person in his arms was trembling nervously, feeling very panicked by this sudden news.
"I will be back safely."
Xia Chenxi kissed Ye Xuan's forehead gently and restrainedly.
He didn't dare to kiss Ye Xuan's lips. If something happened to him in this accident, it would be a kiss goodbye between him and Ye Xuan.
If Ye Xuan heard the news and recalled this kiss, how painful and uncomfortable he would be.
Xia Chenxi put on his combat uniform, prepared his equipment, and sat on the sofa with Ye Xuan waiting for notification from their leader.
They didn't turn on the lights, but sat in the dark holding hands. The moonlight poured in from the balcony coldly and cruelly, dividing their world from the outside world in two.
Every second that passes is like a needle piercing Ye Xuan's heart.
When Xia Chenxi stood up and told Ye Xuan that it was time for him to leave, Ye Xuan's heart was already broken.
"Xia Chenxi, take the amulet my mother gave you." Ye Xuan said to Xia Chenxi with sobs.
His mother told him in the hospital that when people are in love, they should have a keepsake to remember their good times.
But his mother knew him very well. He was slow in terms of emotions and could not think of these things at all, so his mother gave the token to Xia Chenxi on his behalf.
Now he wanted the amulet to bring his good luck to Xia Chenxi.
May he return safely.
Just think of him as an atheist who believed in God for once.
Xia Chenxi raised his hand, his palm was curled up as if he was holding something. The lights were not on, so Ye Xuan couldn't see clearly.
"I have the amulet with me. When I'm not around, remember to eat well and sleep well."
"I'll do these things when you come back and watch me do them."
Xia Chenxi stood at the door for a few seconds, then opened the door and went out.
The door closed with a click, and Ye Xuan sat on the sofa in a daze.
Xia Chenxi left.
He will come back safely.
Ye Xuan curled up his body and covered his face.
Xia Chenxi will definitely come back safely.
That night, Ye Xuan had nightmares. He had no recollection of what he dreamed about when he woke up. He only felt a layer of cold sweat on his back.
He went to the bathroom and saw that his face was pale, his eyes were dark, and he looked very haggard.
When he opened the door, everything was the same, except that Xia Chenxi was not there. Usually at this time, a hot breakfast would be waiting for him on the table.
Ye Xuan went to the kitchen, got the piece of bread, ate a few bites and headed for Venue B.
When they arrived at the venue, all the team members were discussing the fact that Team C was completely wiped out and Team A was leaving in the evening.
The base couldn't hide such a sensational event even if they wanted to.
Tong Wei, who has always been optimistic, also looked unusually sad and listless.
"Is the base going to collapse?"
Lu Shao punched Tong Wei on the head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. The base didn't send out the special forces, which means the situation is still under control."
Tong Wei covered his head and didn't fight back, "Sending the special forces at this time doesn't prove that Team A has also fallen?"
Lu Shao glanced at Ye Xuan and told Tong Wei to stop talking nonsense.
Ye Xuan stood aside and thought nothing, he only felt a lot of noise in his ears.
Luo Feng came to the venue and gathered everyone together for training.
Someone said dejectedly: "Brother Feng, it's like this outside, do we still need to train?"
Sighs were heard one after another.
"With your spirits, sending you to deal with zombies now is like sending sheep into the tiger's mouth."
Luo Feng showed annoyance, "Think about it, why did the base gather you together to train you? It is not only to save more people, but also to enable you to protect yourself."
"But look at you now, you are all like eggplants hit by frost. If zombies surrounded the city outside, would you also raise your hands and surrender?"
Luo Feng's tone was very harsh, and every word he said was heart-wrenching.
The team members fell silent.
"No!" Tong Wei shouted passionately, "Even if I have to fight ten people alone, I will never surrender. My motto is to fight to the end!"
A very chuunibyou-sounding sentence echoed in the hall.
It seemed a little ridiculous, but it ignited the fighting spirit of the team members.
"Yes, that's right. There is no word "surrender" in my dictionary."
"Brother Feng, we were wrong. Let's train well."
Luo Feng's expression relaxed and he waved to them, asking them to stop talking nonsense and start practicing quickly.
But the passionate speech just now did not impress Ye Xuan. He was in a daze during the morning training, and even Chen Cheng noticed that something was wrong with him.
"What are you thinking about? Your movements are weak and you will die if you face the zombies." Chen Cheng said with a cold face.
"I wish I could go fight the zombies now." Instead of waiting anxiously for news from Xia Chenxi.
Chen Cheng threw the water to Ye Xuan, "What you need to do now is to adjust your mindset. What if the person you want to see sends you a message asking for help? Are you going to see him like this? I don't know whether he will save you or you will save him."
Ye Xuan caught the water and suddenly realized, yes, he had the experience of applying for support before, he should be prepared at all times, it is better to be safe than sorry.
"Thank you." Ye Xuan raised the water and said to Chen Cheng.
Chen Cheng returned to his cold attitude and walked aside to sit down.
In the afternoon, Ye Xuan went to the central stadium for training. Perhaps because of his anger, he even challenged the zombie level that had been stuck.
After the system kicked him out of the virtual world, Ye Xuan took off his equipment and left the center venue.
He went to the hospital to see Ye's father and mother. Before entering the door, he repeatedly pulled up the corners of his mouth to practice smiling.
But who was Ye Ma? Ye Ma saw through Ye Xuan as soon as he opened his mouth.
He lay beside Ye Ma's bed and said he was worried about Xia Chenxi.
Mother Ye touched her son's head and said softly, "He will be safe."
Ye's father also said: "Yes, that kid is blessed with a good life."
Ye Xuan stayed in the hospital for a while and then returned to the dormitory.
Xia Chenxi was not at home, and he wanted to go to his room to check.
After experiencing the time of sticking with Xia Chenxi all the time, Ye Xuan now truly understands how terrible the loneliness is after getting used to it.
He opened Xia Chenxi's door and turned on the light.
The room was clean and tidy, and the quilt was neatly made on the bed.
He noticed that Xia Chenxi's cabinet was open a crack.
Driven by curiosity, he opened the cabinet and saw the things inside. Ye Xuan took them out tremblingly.
Xia Chenxi lied to him. He didn't take the amulet with him at all, nor did he take the boxing gloves he had given him.
There was a note underneath. Ye Xuan took it out and when he saw what was written on it, tears welled up in his eyes.
"Ye Xuan, I don't have anything worth cherishing, but the gifts you and Auntie gave me are treasures I will treasure for the rest of my life. If I die, bury them in a place where the sun can shine, and I will follow them to find you."
The bracelet vibrates and a message pops up.
[Team A was defeated by the zombies, some members died and some were missing. 】
There was a loud thunder outside the house, and lightning illuminated Ye Xuan's tearful face.
The wish he made in the hospital was invalidated.
The gods never heard his voice.
