Yan Xi woke up in the hospital ward again and stared at the ceiling with a dull look.
Every detail of the familiar scene made him feel as if he were in another world.
Who could have thought that last night, that person was still tenderly celebrating his birthday, proposing to him, and hugging him to sleep, and the next moment... the two of them would be separated forever.
This separation will truly mean we will never see each other again.
The policeman at the door looked at the dazed young man inside, shook his head and sighed.
They have found out that this person is Lu Yanxi, Huo Xiao's lover, and is not a criminal suspect.
He was so crazy last night simply because he couldn't accept the death of his lover.
As police officers, they have seen too many joys and sorrows, but every time this happens, they still can't help but be moved.
As he was thinking about this, his colleague brought over Yan Xi's only relative, Grandma Lu.
Grandma Lu's originally gray hair had turned completely white after she heard yesterday that Yan Xi was seriously ill. Now she received the news of Huo Xiao's death. Her spirit was gone in an instant, as if her soul had been taken away by some monster, and her expression was numb.
Because she knew that if Huo Xiao left, her grandson would have no chance of survival.
As expected, when they arrived at the hospital, the doctor said that her grandson's body was at the end of its strength and he probably wouldn't survive even half a month, let alone a month.
Grandma Lu felt that she, an old woman, had suddenly lost the courage to live.
The police officer supported her as she staggered, and stood at the door of the ward. Looking at the boy inside, who looked like he had lost all hope, he spoke with a bit of reluctance, "Grandma Lu, your grandson is in there. He hasn't spoken since he woke up, and he hasn't eaten or drunk anything. He hasn't responded at all. Although he has been ruled out as a suspect, we still need him to cooperate with us in taking a statement and provide clues to solve the case, so we have to trouble you to go in and persuade him."
“…Okay.” Grandma Lu straightened her clothes and hair, and tried her best to make herself look a little more energetic before walking in step by step.
Seeing her grandson like this, Grandma Lu felt extremely uncomfortable, but the more she felt at this critical moment, the more she couldn't fall down. She could only force herself to go over and carefully hold Yan Xi's hand. After thinking for a while, she said, "Xiao Xi, does it hurt?"
Grandma Lu took a look at the place where Yan Xi fell last night, and tears came out.
Yan Xi said nothing. He touched his chest with no expression on his face.
Does it hurt?
He seemed to feel no pain.
My heart is dead, how can it hurt?
When Grandma Lu saw his actions, she couldn't hold back her tears. She choked and said, "Xiaoxi, the dead cannot be resurrected. Xiao Huo would definitely not want you to be like this. You have to cheer up. We still have to see the murderer brought to justice and avenge him. Only then will he know and feel at ease. Xiaoxi, you still have Grandma. Grandma will be with you. You are the only relative Grandma has..."
Hearing this, Yan Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, her pupils focused, her eyes moved, and she tilted her head to look at her, "Grandma, I'm sorry..."
"Child, don't say sorry. It's grandma who is sorry for you. You have suffered so much." Grandma Lu hugged him and kept apologizing.
Yan Xi listened and lost control of her emotions, bursting into tears.
The ward was filled with the crying of the grandparents.
The police at the door and passers-by couldn't help but tremble in their hearts and sigh.
Sometimes, I really don’t know whether they are living in the human world or in hell.
…
After that day, Yan Xi seemed to have returned to normal, eating, drinking, sleeping, laughing and chatting.
But Grandma Lu felt that he was like a soulless robot.
Now all emotions and reactions are programmed.
For half a month, he kept waiting, but there was no news that the police had solved the case.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, all the clues have been cut off. We haven't found the murderer of Huo Xiao yet, but don't worry, we will not give up. One day we will bring the murderer to justice!"
On the hospital bed, Yan Xi, who was on his deathbed, suddenly laughed when he heard this. "Yeah, if we can't find the murderer, how can you find him?"
How could he be an ordinary mortal who kills people with the God-Slaying Sword?
The police on earth have no way of catching him.
So what has he been waiting for in the past half month?
Even though I know there will be no results, I still have hope.
Yan Xi, oh Yan Xi, how can you avenge him?
When the police heard his words, they thought he was complaining about their ability to handle cases and lowered their heads in shame.
Yan Xi glanced out the window, then looked back at Grandma Lu, who was crying beside the bed, and smiled slowly, "Grandma, I should go."
After saying this, he closed his eyes completely with a smile.
The moment he closed his eyes, all the good things Yan Xi had done were revealed.
He donated most of his property, part of it to Grandma Lu and part of it to Liu Yang.
System 5555: "Reminder! Mission progress 100%. Congratulations to the host for completing the mission!"
The moment his soul left the body, Yan Xi took a deep look at the ring on the body's hand.
From now on, I will never wear the ring you gave me again.
The connection between them was severed forever...
Yan Xi remained silent after returning to the system space.
System 5555 nervously leaned over and asked, "Host, do you want to rest for a while before going to the next plane?"
Yan Xi rolled her eyes and looked at him, "Can you give me double the chance of rebirth? I can double the tasks."
System 5555 pursed its lips in embarrassment. "I'm afraid that's not possible. I can't make the decision. Besides, he's already... reduced to ashes. He can't be reborn."
