The moon at the end of the world is not as bright as before. It looks foggy. The faint white light is projected on this forgotten land. The whole world seems to be left with only black and white.
In the dark room, Yu Guo saw Xu Wen Yao fell asleep, so he began to fiddle with the vines on his body.
Before she could move twice, she was interrupted by Ayang's low voice, "You can't untie it. She will find out if you do."
Yu Guo was startled by Ayang, "You, you are not asleep?"
"I was pretending to be asleep. I'm very good at pretending to be asleep." There was a hint of pride in Ayang's tone when he said this.
"Then can you teach me? Every time I pretend to be asleep, my sister finds out. In order to prevent me from being late for school in the morning, she confiscated both of my game consoles..."
Yu Guo's voice suddenly stopped. He remembered that it was the end of the world and he hadn't had to do homework for a long time, let alone go to school.
Not only that, he also remembered that Ayang had taken his kindness for granted today, and he became angry again.
"Don't talk to me. I have unilaterally broken off relations with you."
To show his determination, Yu Guo puffed out his cheeks, raised his chin, and looked noble and cool.
Ah Yang knew that he was still angry about what happened in the afternoon, so he smiled and looked at him from over Yu Guo's shoulder, "I didn't mean it, I was just..."
Ayang pointed in the direction of Xu Wenyao.
Yu Guo was puzzled and frowned, "What does this have to do with her?"
"It's just that we can't have too close a relationship."
Ah Yang tried to explain, but although he had learned a lot in the Blood Alliance, his vocabulary was limited. After a long pause, he could only manage one sentence: "This is the rule."
The more Yu Guo listened, the more confused he became. "Do you still have such rules there?"
"We have a lot of rules there."
"What's there?"
As the Blood Alliance was about to arrive, Yu Guo became curious.
"We have to go out for patrol every day, in groups of three: one adult and two children. We have to catch people and bring them back, otherwise we will be punished."
"Then why did you arrest him?"
"At once..."
Ayang looked at Yu Guo's bright eyes and suddenly felt speechless.
Before, in the Blood Alliance, everything was normal, but when he came into contact with people outside, that false normal was exposed, and everything became so difficult to talk about.
He said vaguely, "It was arranged by Uncle Alliance Leader. I don't know either."
The simple Yu Guo didn't think too much about it and said sympathetically, "You must be very tired after all the hard work."
In the quiet environment, coupled with Yu Guo's distressed expression, Ayang's nose felt sore and he responded vaguely, "Yeah."
Friendship between children is easy to establish, especially when facing the same difficulties, these two little kids seem to have endless things to talk about.
"You just said your sister would confiscate your game console?"
"Yes, sometimes I would secretly hide under the covers to play, but she would always find me. But every time she confiscated my game console, she would sit at the head of the bed and tell me stories to coax me to sleep."
Next to the orange-yellow table lamp, his sister in a blue nightgown patted him gently with one hand and held a storybook in the other. In the quiet air, only his sister's gentle voice could be heard.
As he was talking, Yu Guo started to cry, "Wuwu..."
Ayang quickly covered his mouth and said, "You're crying too loudly. Cry a little quieter, or you'll wake her up."
Yu Guo was obedient and kept quiet when asked. She covered her mouth and sobbed softly, "I miss my sister."
Ayang didn't know how to comfort him, so he moved closer to him and silently passed on his strength.
After Yu Guo finished crying, he wiped her tears and asked, "Don't you miss home?"
"I don't want to."
Ayang subconsciously gave a negative answer.
Only when he realized that no one was watching him did he change his words and say, "Actually, I...I miss home."
After saying that, Ayang also started crying. "I miss my parents. They take Ayue and me out to play every weekend. I also miss my friends at school. I want to play football and roller skate with them. I also miss my little turtle. It must have starved to death after not being fed for so long..."
His crying became more and more intense, and Yu Guo quickly covered his mouth, "Cry quieter."
"Woo woo, got it."
“…”
On this cold winter night, their hearts were closer.
-
Two days passed in a flash. Xu Wen Yao had eaten all the food he had taken from Su Man, and the few pieces of wild beast meat were gone. Now he was out of food and ammunition.
Being cold, hungry and not knowing where their destination was, Xu Wen Yao became more and more irritable. At noon, because Yu Guo was tied up and it was inconvenient, he accidentally dropped the biscuits on the ground, and Xu Wen Yao became furious.
"Are you blind? There's only so much food left and you dumped it on the ground. You did it on purpose!"
Yu Guo was frightened by her and stammered, "I didn't mean it."
"You're still trying to make excuses! You're just like your sister, you can't accomplish anything."
"You are not allowed to talk about my sister."
Yu Guo, who has a sister complex, is like an angry little fire dragon, with his eyes wide open and his cheeks puffing up, almost spitting fire.
Xu Wen Yao was already in a state of anxiety, and after hearing Yu Guo's yelling, she became even more furious. A branch about the thickness of a finger appeared in her hand, and she raised her hand to hit it.
"I told you not to, I told you not to!"
The branches hit his body with a "snapping" sound. Yu Guo couldn't dodge in time and a long bloody mark was left on his face, which was shocking to see.
Yu Guo's face was burning, but he didn't cry out. With red eyes, he bit his lips and glared at Xu Wen Yao fiercely.
