Chapter 87 Yang Luoliu Confesses
Seeing that Li Yue really wanted to know, Yan Nanyu simply did not hide it.
"Aotian's behavior is mainly due to the incident with Chen Jingyu. You may not know the bond between him and Chen Jingyu."
Li Yue wanted to say that he seemed to know something, but when he thought that it might not be complete, he did not respond and listened carefully to what Yan Nanyu said.
After Yan Nanyu said this, he looked around and made sure that there was no one around before he slowly spoke.
"Only a few people in the upper echelons know about this, so don't tell anyone."
Seeing Li Yue nodded, Yan Nanyu continued to speak.
"You should know Zheng Shi, right? You were the one who brought him to our current base."
Li Yue naturally knew it. He wanted to say something but was afraid of interrupting Yan Nanyu, so he just nodded.
This was the first time Yan Nanyu met someone who didn't respond when he was talking, and he immediately became interested in sharing.
"Last time, Aotian chatted with Zheng Shi for a while, and then he started to act a little strange. The people above noticed something was wrong with him and used various methods to interrogate him before they knew why things were like this."
Yan Nanyu was stunned for a moment after he finished speaking. After thinking about what he was going to say and looking at Li Yue, who could be his son, he decided to speak briefly to avoid scaring him.
"The general meaning is that Chen Jingyu was first killed by his two students."
Looking at Li Yue's clear eyes, Yan Nanyu couldn't continue speaking. He looked at the second room behind him, thought for a moment, and pointed at the room before speaking.
"This way, then."
But this time, before Yan Nanyu could say anything more, Li Yue widened his eyes and pointed at the room in the middle.
"Like this? A man?"
Li Yue vaguely remembered that Xuanyuan Aotian was talking about two seniors, so he couldn't help but interrupt directly.
Yan Nanyu knew that the person in front of him would be surprised when he said these words, but since it was the truth, he could only nod his head.
When Li Yue saw Yan Nanyu nod, his expression instantly turned into the surprised expression of Pigsy. At this moment, he seemed to have opened the door to a new world.
Then he thought that this was the end of the world and it was not too weird, so he signaled Yan Nanyu to continue.
Seeing that Li Yue accepted it well, Yan Nanyu simply did not hide it, but he could not speak slowly as he saw that the situation was almost cleaned up.
"Chen Jingyu killed them, then met Zheng Shi, stepped out of the shadows and established his own base. However, he was targeted by others. When the people in the base were being abused, he stood up and was also... well, the most terrifying thing was that Zheng Shi and his group of psychics stood there watching because of Chen Jingyu's previous experience. No one dared to step forward."
After hearing this, Li Yue felt something was wrong and asked.
"What about Xuanyuan Aotian? He disappears so many times?"
Seeing Li Yue ask this, Yan Nanyu sighed helplessly.
"I don't know about that. After all, Zheng Shi only talked about Chen Jingyu."
After hearing this, Li Yue was silent for a moment before speaking.
"What happened next? Shouldn't these people have been silenced after doing what they did? Why are Chen Jingyu and the others okay?"
Yan Nanyu sighed, perhaps also lamenting Chen Jingyu's experience. After all, they had been together for so long, so his tone was much lower when he spoke again.
"How could it be okay? Those people didn't kill him right away. I think they wanted to settle down in Chen Jingyu's base, so Chen Jingyu got a break and killed them. However, Zheng Shi didn't elaborate on how he did it. When he said this, he had already fallen into a frenzy. There's no way to verify the details, but it's likely like this."
"In the end, the higher-ups all agreed that Chen Jingyu did these things out of hatred for his own weakness."
Yan Nanyu fell silent after saying this, and neither of them knew what he was thinking.
In the end, it was Yan Nanyu who spoke.
"Aotian probably does this because he hates himself for not being able to do anything. Or maybe there are other reasons, but no matter what, this is his own knot, and he has to deal with it himself."
"That's why the government wants to recruit them. Firstly, it wants to unite the forces, and secondly, they're afraid that something like what happened to Chen Jingyu will happen again."
After saying that, he looked around the backyard, sighed, and patted Li Yue's shoulder.
"Go back. From today on, this city will be a real dead city. There will be no living people in it except the living dead and mutated animals and plants."
Without waiting for Li Yue's answer, he strode towards the front yard.
Li Yue stood there in a daze for a long time, looked up at the setting sun, glanced at the room behind him, and left.
When Li Yue came out, the front yard had been cleaned up and everyone had gotten into the car one after another. Li Yue thought about it and then spoke.
"I still want to wait for Xuanyuan Aotian. Please go back and tell my sister that I might be late before returning home."
Seeing Li Yue's resolute look, Yan Nanyu sighed helplessly and threw the walkie-talkie that he had prepared long ago to Li Yue.
"This walkie-talkie has been modified. It has a very wide coverage area. The two people I sent to chase Xuanyuan Aotian have it on them. You can find it yourself."
After saying that, he knocked on the car next to him and spoke again.
"I'll leave this car to you. Be careful and don't let your sister beat me up."
Seeing that Yan Nanyu had prepared everything for him, Li Yue chuckled.
"Thanks."
When Yan Nanyu heard this, he just shrugged his shoulders and then gestured for everyone to get in the car and leave.
Looking at everyone leaving, Li Yue also set out to find Xuanyuan Aotian.
On the other side, Yang Luoliu saw that the sun was finally setting and the weather was no longer hot, so he stood up and went to Ye Yiyi.
He spoke when Ye Yiyi looked at him in confusion.
"Yiyi, I want to go to the rooftop to see the scenery. Can you accompany me?"
Yang Luoliu's eyes were clear and the smile on her lips was just right. It was a very normal request.
Thinking that Yang Luoliu hadn't done anything out of the ordinary recently and that Ye Yiyi was finishing up the things she was doing, she didn't think too much about it.
"Okay, I'll sort out the last of the paperwork."
Ye Yiyi raised the document in her hand and spoke to Yang Luoliu.
Seeing that Ye Yiyi agreed to his request, Yang Luoliu did not push for anything more. After all, if someone was scared and didn't dare to go, it would be a waste of time.
Then he nodded and sat back in his original seat silently, waiting for Ye Yiyi to get everything ready.
By the time Ye Yiyi had finished getting everything ready, the sky was already red and there was not much sun left.
Yang Luoliu then pulled Ye Yiyi towards the highest building of the base. Ye Yiyi was a little confused, but she didn't think much about it and just thought that she really wanted to see the scenery.
It was not until Ye Yiyi followed Yang Luoliu's steps and climbed up ten floors that she really couldn't bear it anymore.
Seeing Ye Yiyi like this, Yang Luoliu was no longer anxious. After all, even if she wanted to say something, she didn't want to make Ye Yiyi really tired.
The entire building has twenty-five floors. Fortunately, Ye Yiyi's physical strength is not as weak as before the apocalypse, so climbing these floors is no problem for Ye Yiyi.
By the time we finally opened the door to the rooftop, the sun had already been half blocked by the mountains.
Since the first time she talked with Li Shu on the 28th floor and carefully looked at the scenery from above, Ye Yiyi had never seen it again.
This time, looking out at the view from afar again, Ye Yiyi felt infinite emotion in her heart. She originally just wanted to accompany Yang Luoliu to see it, but now that she really came up, she left Yang Luoliu behind and walked to the edge of the rooftop by herself, looking at the scenery of F City from afar.
However, in just a few months, everything you see is desolate. Because no one lives there, creeping vines have covered many buildings. The dilapidated and dusty cars on the nearby streets and the zombies wandering on the streets all add a touch of sadness to the picture.
Ye Yiyi pursed her lips and suddenly didn't want to look at it anymore, because it was not a beautiful sight at all. Just when Ye Yiyi was about to turn around, Yang Luoliu stepped forward and held Ye Yiyi's hand.
While Ye Yiyi was in a daze, he smiled, took her hand and pulled her to the other side.
"It's not the people over there that I want to show you. Look at the people in the base."
Ye Yiyi looked in the direction Yang Luoliu pointed. Just changing the direction revealed a completely different scene. One side was desolate and dilapidated, while the other side was thriving and prosperous.
Although they are in an environment full of dangers, humans still spare no effort to open up a path to light in the darkness.
At a time when she should be expecting a superhero to come and save her, what Ye Yiyi saw was ordinary people piecing themselves together one after another, using all their strength to cut through the darkness until they could see the stars.
"Although this world is dark and there are bad people who don't know right from wrong, Yiyi, you see, there are still many people standing up. They are using their own ways to tell everyone that there is still light in this world."
After saying this, Yang Luoliu looked at Ye Yiyi seriously.
"Yiyi, this world is still very beautiful, right?"
'So don't be scared off by it, and don't be scared off by me.'
Yang Luoliu still couldn't say the following words, because Ye Yiyi didn't know that she could hear her conversation with the system, and she also knew that she was not from this world.
Ye Yiyi didn't understand why Yang Luoliu said these words, but Ye Yiyi, who had experienced a lot, did not answer Yang Luoliu perfunctorily. Instead, she thought carefully for a while before meeting Yang Luoliu's serious expression and speaking.
"Yes, sister, you may not know that I was really scared at the beginning. But I have experienced and seen a lot along the way, and the overall feeling I have is indeed good."
"Even now, I've never felt any warmth. I don't even have many friends, and the ones I do have are only because of work. Friendship with a mask is very tiring. But now, after the apocalypse, I can actually feel warmth and friendship. Isn't it amazing, sister?"
As she spoke, Ye Yiyi looked at the busy crowd downstairs with tenderness in her eyes.
"Well, I believe it, because I feel it too."
After Yang Luoliu said this softly, the entire rooftop was silent except for the occasional sound of the wind. The two of them did not seem embarrassed, and even felt that this scene was very warm.
But Yang Luoliu knew that he had not finished what he was supposed to do today, but all his courage disappeared the moment he was about to speak.
Because there are still many uncertain factors, Yang Luoliu is afraid that people who can move freely among the zombies will always be cowardly and hesitant when facing Ye Yiyi's affairs, just because they are afraid of being left behind.
People are like this. I could have endured darkness and loneliness in the abyss of darkness, but she stubbornly brought a beam of light to accompany me.
After I went from resistance to acceptance, she could leave at any time. How could this be possible? How could I endure the darkness and loneliness after feeling the light and companionship?
Ye Yiyi didn't understand the inner torment of Yang Luoliu. After watching for a long time and it was almost time for dinner, Ye Yiyi took a deep breath and spoke.
"Let's go, sister. It's almost time to eat."
After saying this, Ye Yiyi smiled, glanced at Yang Luoliu, and turned around to go down.
But Yang Luoliu knew that today was the best time, because she knew that after today she would no longer have the courage to break this window paper.
Seeing that Ye Yiyi was about to leave, Yang Luoliu tightened and loosened his hands at his side, and finally reached out and pulled Ye Yiyi in front of him.
Under Ye Yiyi's puzzled gaze, Yang Luoliu took a deep breath, prepared himself mentally, and then spoke.
"Yiyi, I like you."
The sudden confession made Ye Yiyi's eyes widen, not knowing how to react, and her head exploded with a buzzing sound.
Now Ye Yiyi's mind was filled with Yang Luoliu's words just now, and there was nothing else, even the occasional sound of wind in her ears had faded away.
On the other hand, Yang Luoliu was not so nervous after saying this. He seemed to be afraid that Ye Yiyi would run away. He grabbed Ye Yiyi's shoulders with his right hand and supported his left hand on the railing of the rooftop, trapping Ye Yiyi between himself and the railing before speaking.
"Ye Yiyi, you are so smart. I don't believe you don't know that I like you."
Seeing that Ye Yiyi didn't say anything for a long time, Yang Luoliu became more and more uneasy, and uneasiness spread in his heart.
"Yiyi, please give me a chance. You can stop liking me, or you can use me. From now on, I will never go west or east. I am very powerful now. I can be the sharpest knife in your hand, and I will hit you wherever I point my finger. Yiyi."
Ye Yiyi was brought back to her senses by Yang Luoliu's extremely humble tone. He was clearly an untouchable existence in the eyes of everyone, but he showed such a humble and eager expression in front of her.
Looking at this scene, Ye Yiyi felt uncomfortable, because Yang Luoliu shouldn't be like this. Thinking of this, Ye Yiyi wanted to speak.
But Yang Luoliu was afraid, afraid that Ye Yiyi would say something she didn't like. Her eyes trembled and then she leaned over, intending to use a forceful kiss to stop Ye Yiyi from saying what she didn't want to hear.
But Yang Luoliu didn't kiss her because Ye Yiyi in front of him raised her hand and blocked Yang Luoliu's kiss with her hand.
Looking at this situation, Yang Luoliu's eyes became more profound.
"You really don't want to. Why not lock her up? As long as I keep her under control, she won't leave, right?"
The system, stunned by the sudden confession, suddenly heard a signal of rising resentment in its ears.
Before the system could remind Ye Yiyi, Ye Yiyi gently placed her hand on Yang Luoliu's lips.
When he saw Yang Luoliu's deep eyes gradually return to normal, with a hint of invisible daze, a barely perceptible amusement rose in his complicated mind.
However, Ye Yiyi did not hesitate and spoke after careful consideration.
"Sister, I don't think I hate you, but I don't know if this is love. Your sudden confession left me unprepared. Can you give me some time? Okay?"
