Chapter 38 Chapter 38
Li Ke returned to the night before the high school entrance examination, and he hugged Mo Shi.
Mo Shi said nothing, not even a tear.
Li Ke once again returned to the night before the high school entrance examination. He snatched Mo Shi's phone and cursed back on him.
Even the principal came that night, and Li Ke's parents and Mo Shi's parents had a big fight.
Li Ke went back to an earlier time, hoping to get Mo Shi's promise to continue drawing the comics.
Mo Shi did not agree, but gave him the sequel to the comic in the draft the next day.
They were the ones that Li Ke found in Beibei's Studio, but this time they were outlined.
He couldn't save him.
Li Ke no longer knew how much of his life he had paid with. He once again saw Mo Shi handing him a piece of draft paper with the account number and password written on it.
On several occasions, Mo Shi guessed that he had come back from the future.
'They' all said the same thing.
"Don't hurt yourself because of me anymore, Li Ke."
The three-foot-thick ice did not form overnight. The long-term pain destroyed everything Mo Shi had.
But now Li Ke is unable to change the root cause of Mo Shi's pain.
He couldn't save him.
Li Ke curled up sadly.
He didn't know how he could save Mo Shi.
He doesn't know.
He could only watch Mo Shi choose to end his life again and again.
The one who can't let go is him, only him.
Li Ke can only learn to let go.
This is the last time, Li Ke thought to himself.
"Mo Shi, I can accept it."
He said with a smile.
"But you have to agree to one condition."
"Conditions?" Mo Shi put away the pen he used to write the account and password and asked.
Li Ke nodded, "Come out with me tonight! Please, please, this is the only request I have in my life!"
He put his hands together in front of his forehead, just enough to cover his red eyes.
There was a hint of artificiality in that joy, but fortunately Mo Shi didn't notice it.
"..."
“Please!”
Mo Shi thought about it for a long time and finally agreed.
This is Mo Shi’s farewell, his farewell to this world and his only good friend Li Ke.
This is also Li Ke's farewell, his farewell to Mo Shi, and to this cycle of reincarnation that will never end until death as long as he doesn't give up.
——
"I know I can't save him, but I just can't bear it."
After Li Ke said this, he also finished telling the story that he had hidden in his heart, a story that even his parents didn't know, so he coughed twice as if to look relaxed.
"It's okay, I've figured it out, the past is the past."
But everyone knew that no matter how relaxed Li Ke appeared, his heart was much heavier than anyone could imagine.
The fear of the living dead, the guilt and regret for not being able to save a good friend, and the fear of something that still has a glimmer of hope but can never be done.
Because of this, Li Ke was extremely stingy. He was afraid that one day he would have to watch an important person pass away because of his greed - even if he sacrificed his own life, he couldn't do it.
It was precisely because of this that he wanted to help the girl, even if it was just to help her fulfill that small, insignificant wish that might have existed.
This is meaningful to Li Ke, who has lost something that cannot be recovered.
Someone patted his left shoulder, and Li Ke looked at Xi Siling.
"I'm sorry."
I also felt someone patting my right shoulder. It was Lan Yi.
"Cry if you want to. I won't laugh at you."
Although he knew that Lan Yi was making the suggestion sincerely, Li Ke still retorted unhappily.
"I won't cry!"
But this sentence was a little choked up, and it looked fake no matter how you looked at it.
However, the three of them would not laugh at this time, as they all understood Li Ke's feelings.
But for Xi Siling, the significance of this conversation is even more profound.
It is better to know it now than to know it later in the future which no one can change.
"Xiao Ke."
Xi Siling came in front of Li Ke and half-knelt down, looking at Li Ke who was sitting on the sofa at eye level.
"I'm glad you're here and are friends with us."
In any case, Li Ke did not choose to dwell on a dead end, nor did he sink into extinction and extinction in reincarnation again and again. Instead, he chose to move towards the future, and thus moved towards this brand new world with Xi Siling, Lan Yi, and Liu Huaqi.
Perhaps this world is too heavy, so heavy that the child named Mo Shi cannot look to the future.
Fortunately, Li Ke is not trapped in the past.
"We all need you, Xiao Ke, this time too."
Li Ke's expression became a little funny, the kind of expression that one doesn't want to cry loudly in front of his friends, but his emotions are so turbulent that he can hardly control them.
"That's so unfair, 40, I didn't even want to cry!"
How could he not have thought about what "giving up" really means? Li Ke, who is deeply trapped in it, is still young. He will doubt whether he does not regard Mo Shi as a friend as he imagined. He will also doubt his own abilities and even the value of his existence.
Fortunately, when Li Ke chose to tell this story, it was no longer giving up for Li Ke, who had chosen to "give up" in the past.
The future needs him, and Xi Siling, Lan Yi and Liu Huaqi who are in the future also need him.
So, it was the same this time when facing that poor girl.
The road ahead is longer than the rutted past.
"Si Ling is right, A Ke, if you hadn't appeared when I was thinking about what to eat for three meals a day, I would definitely be sad."
The simplest and most effective comfort.
The so-called meaning is given by people, but existence itself is meaningful.
When Lan Yi needs a dining companion, the person who goes with him may not be Li Ke, but he cannot be without Li Ke when thinking.
"Ahhh, Brother Lan, I'm not happy at all when you say that! No matter what, sooner or later we'll catch the bastard who cursed Wang Shiyu! I'm going to go wash up!"
Li Ke's mental energy had already been depleted a bit, and if he stayed here any longer he would really cry out loud.
This time the three of them didn't stop him. After all, his knot in his heart must have been untied.
Although they didn't know whether it would work to alleviate Li Ke's fear when facing the living dead, they would naturally feel relieved as long as their friends were not in such a bad mood.
——
Liu Huaqi watched Li Ke hide back in his room.
He hadn't said anything since Li Ke started telling the story. It wasn't because he didn't care, but because he really didn't know what to say.
There was a strange sense of crisis and separation at work in his heart, setting off alarm bells.
He doesn't belong here.
He knew very well that he did not belong here.
Friendly atmosphere, absolute trust, and friends with good intentions.
He shouldn't belong here.
The way the seniors get along with each other is something that Liuhuaqi will never be able to learn even if he studies for a lifetime.
He entered the cozy and terrifying dormitory 618 in a 'despicable' way, and at the same time entered the world of his senior classmates and the most important friend in his life.
Is this really the place where Liuhuaci - 'The Executioner', 'The One Who Descends from God', 'Madman', 'The Worst Warlock in History' should stay?
He broke into the world of three people with intentions that were not malicious but definitely not kind, and with a naive mindset that allowed him to escape at any time and was just looking for fun.
Seniors in the department, Li Ke and Lan Yi.
They support each other and grow together based on their trust in each other.
It doesn't matter if you reveal your inner self, because no one will get hurt here.
What about him? Can he do this?
No, once he reveals his inner thoughts, danger will wrap around his body like a poisonous snake, tightly bite his neck, and treat him as a slave, an object of profit, or an abandoned pawn.
So Liuhuaci also learned to treat others in this way.
He actually had the idea of retreating.
Liu Huacui comforted himself that this was called cutting losses in time, and it was a wise choice to stay away before getting stuck deeper.
Before Li Ke, Lan Yi, and the senior from the department are harmed...
But, but...
"77, come with me and get some food."
Before Liu Huaqi could figure it out, Xi Siling's voice rang in his ears.
When I looked up, I found that Senior Lan Yi had also left, and seemed to have gone back to his room to wash up.
"...Senior in the department." Liu Huaqi smiled. He felt more like a devil in human skin.
The senior students in the department knew nothing about this and actually treated him as a junior who they could get close to.
"After all, we haven't eaten much all day, let's go buy some food, otherwise Xiao Ke will definitely get up in the middle of the night to cook a midnight snack."
Xi Siling seemed to notice nothing and explained.
Liu Huaqi nodded, "Okay, senior."
——
In fact, he interrupted Liuhuaqi on purpose because he discovered it.
No matter what he is thinking, we must not let the old thief get the chance to draw it in the comics.
"He was thinking very seriously, as if he was thinking about something serious."
Anyway, Xi Siling couldn't read minds. He could only judge from Liu Huaqi's expression that he was definitely not thinking good things (not in a derogatory sense), but he didn't know what he was thinking exactly.
So Xi Siling discussed the matter with the system out of habit.
"Maybe he's getting impatient."
The current system also recognized Xi Siling's judgment that Liu Huaqi is definitely not the sunny and cheerful big boy in the comics, so the only basis for judgment is how Liu Huaqi behaves in the future after he turns "black".
"If he was just impatient, 77 wouldn't show it and let us find out. In my opinion, it might be because he was touched by Xiao Ke's past."
Xi Siling tried to think in a more optimistic direction.
"It makes some sense, but it doesn't feel right."
Does the system also have intuition? The system itself doesn’t know, but its intuition tells it that something is wrong.
Xi Siling sighed silently. He was also nervous, afraid that his misjudgment would lead to an uncontrollable situation. Especially when facing Liuhuaqi, he always had to be fully alert to face it.
I went to the night market and bought some snacks and a few cups of milk tea. After I had almost finished my purchase, I didn’t stop and walked back to the dormitory.
At this time, Liuhuaqi finally spoke.
"What if... I mean what if, senior, I fail to enter the Lingyan class?"
Xi Siling was stunned for a moment.
No, you, the protagonist of a shonen comic, wouldn’t go back on your word!!!
"Level 1 Alarm! Level 1 Alarm!" The system even started screaming in Xi Siling's mind.
It is impossible for Liuhuaqi to not be able to enter the Lingyan class. The only possibility is that he himself does not want to enter.
You must not say the wrong thing, otherwise it will be all over!
——
"But... you promised me, it was my fault that I made you feel that I was..."
The gentle senior spoke softly, his eyes seemed to be filled with a hint of sadness.
Pushing aside the sadness, there is a rare toughness.
"Are you kidding?"
