Chapter 79 Chapter 62 Midnight

Ni Lan smiled and didn't care how the secret between them was solved, as long as there was no more misunderstanding between Pu Yis and Pu Ao Shi.

But maybe he shouldn't be happy so early. Now that the "misunderstanding" between the two brothers has been resolved, isn't it his turn?

But apparently, Ni Lan did not realize that she had become the 'target'.

He was about to leave Shennan and return to St. Snow, and for Puys this was his only chance in the next year.

Whether it was Lanster, Shouyu Island, or the abnormal anger he showed when he rescued Puyis yesterday, Ni Lan has more and more secrets, and the exaggerated emotions he showed, which seemed to fall apart in the next second, have reached a creepy level.

But that emotion is so real and terrifying that people can't help but ask the same question.

Why?

Puisi and Pomo were not completely unaware of this, which made them want to get to know Ni Lan even more, to understand Ni Lan, and to see his true heart.

So far, what concerned him the most, and was the most puzzling, was indeed the sense of incongruity about Ni Lan.

Ni Lan doesn't seem like a person who "lives in reality". His eyes are filled with too many things that are beyond the reach of his sight.

What is strange is not only this ethereal feeling, but also the fact that it really exists - Ni Lan's memory.

His memory is no longer 'bad', but so bad that it affects his quality of life.

Ni Lan might not remember what Puis and Pomo mentioned the day before. He would always be confused for a moment before apologetically saying sorry.

Once or twice is normal, but under Puis's temptation, it happens almost every day.

Ni Lan is equally sensitive to things and time, but she only cares about things related to them.

But Ni Lan would never say it out loud, just like he begged desperately that day...

"Don't ask! Don't ask..."

The reason why he killed himself, the reason why he had to kill himself, was it related to the "curse" he was carrying?

If Ni Lan hadn't been there, according to the progress of the past ten years, he would have died soon, and his vitality and supernatural powers would have been passed on to his other younger brother.

Could it be that this link, which can only be ended by death, is the reason why Ni Lan must kill herself?

Similar doubts, which were not solved in the past, have become more and more numerous as time goes by.

Who is the person in the dead space? If it is Ni Lan, how did he escape?

The jumping questions were just like Puis's ups and downs in mood, making his eyes heavier and heavier.

Ni Lan seemed to notice Puis's inquiring gaze, but she pretended not to notice and smiled at him as if she knew nothing.

"I'll leave on tomorrow's airship. Have fun, you guys."

Her expression didn't change at all, but she was thinking about escaping... If she really let him go like this, she would have to keep all these questions in her heart for at least a year...

He is unwilling to accept it!

"After you finish your hot spring bath, I'll take you to Fengshi's Poseidon Temple. You can also visit it as a museum in Shennan."

Puis suggested reasonably.

Pomo seemed not to notice the subtle atmosphere and played an assist, "Great, great! You should relax before leaving!"

Ni Lan had no reason to refuse, nor did he want to refuse. However, before the upcoming Shouyu Islands crisis, he also had to carefully confirm everything he should do.

"good."

——

They had originally set out a little late, but Puis had used his identity appropriately, so now they were the only visitors in the entire temple.

Pu Ao Shi heard it from somewhere and popped up, using Pu Yi Si's past story as a breakthrough point. The slightly arrogant little bully met the honest and straightforward Pomo and was defeated in less than two minutes.

"Is this how Brother Es is at school?!"

"Your brother is Mr. Qianche's best student! In the restricted competition that ended not long ago, his performance was the best in the entire second grade!"

"That's amazing! But my brother is the best!"

In a sense, both of them support Eze, so how could they not be excited when they get together with similar interests?

Puis broke out in a sweat after hearing their meaningless praise.

Ni Lan noticed this and comforted him, "Ess is already so good, there's no need to underestimate yourself."

Puis: ...

That was a good comfort. Don’t comfort me next time.

Fortunately, all we have to do is actively block those two people who called him a "superman".

"Will the royal family embarrass you?"

This time, Pu Yis was smart. He did not test the relationship between Ni Lan and the royal family. Instead, he directly affirmed it and expressed his concern for Ni Lan.

From this perspective, even if Ni Lan realized his intention, she would most likely not "react".

Ni Lan was stunned for a moment. He deliberately looked at the two people who were chatting happily in front of him, and then he breathed a sigh of relief when he found that they didn't notice.

Esther and Amo are both smart, and perhaps he should have faced these temptations a long time ago.

"Yeah, that's okay."

To be disrespectful to Saint Snow, he never took the rest of the royal family seriously.

Because she never cared, Ni Lan just 'accepted everything', no matter who the malice came from or for what purpose.

Puis frowned.

You see, it's 'it's okay', not 'no'.

What was the reason for killing Prince Guts?

Ni Lan would definitely not answer this question.

"Is it serious?"

"I don't mind."

At this moment, Ni Lan's gentle temperament turned murderous. The temperament he showed in front of Puis and Pomo was often gentle and steady, and it was difficult for people to associate him with his cold side.

If it weren't for what happened that day, Puis would probably have forgotten why he was targeted by the royal family.

However, the royal family chose to let him go, and there is something worth exploring in this.

Puisi does not think that as the most powerful force in this country, he would have the character to be lenient towards others, and the current emperor does not have such a broad mind.

It was also difficult for him not to connect the royal family's announcement that the "assassin was dead" with the "man in black" in the dead space.

"Four distinguished guests, in front of you is the largest statue of Poseidon in the entire Deep South."

The waiter who had been silently guiding in front finally spoke at the right time.

Before the Church of Light was introduced to Shennan, Fengshi was the center of faith, but in recent years, the government has deliberately promoted the Church of Light, and Fengshi's Poseidon Temple has suffered greatly.

Now, the only two young masters of the Pu family who truly control Shennan come here to visit. No matter what their purpose is, they must do their best.

On this basis, it would be even better if they could have a favorable impression of the Temple of Poseidon. The great Sivana is the mother of the people of Shennan and the destination of Shennan. It is really too much for the foreign Church of Light to suppress them with all their might.

"I also sneaked in here when I was a kid. Sisilina is a gentle 'mother'. When I look into her eyes, my heart becomes unexpectedly calm." Puis whispered to Ni Lan.

So Ni Lan also looked into Si Sivina's eyes. Puis looked at him, wondering if he had achieved the same peace in his heart?

"There is also a nursery rhyme in the Deep South that praises the sea god, but I only remember one line of the lyrics." Puys continued, "The pure white moonlight has a long history. It blends into her gaze, listens to the most sincere wishes, and allows the dry soul to find the rich paradise."

Puis did not stop talking about these two sentences, so the waiter also heard them.

"I can sing this song. If you don't mind, I can sing it for a few young masters."

Then, amid the waiter's moving singing, they gazed into the eyes of the sea god again.

She watches everything tenderly, blessing every child born in Shennan.

There is no doubt that every child of Shenzhen South has dreamed of meeting this "gentle mother" in their childhood.

Ni Lan seemed to remember something, and the corners of his mouth gradually curled up, perhaps because of Sivana, or perhaps because of some precious memory.

God...the God of this world...

The curve of Ni Lan's mouth corners suddenly retracted.

The tenderness in his eyes seemed to be just an illusion of Puys, and was replaced by deep heaviness and sorrow.

Ni Lan’s biggest secret has never been herself.

But this is clearly a... a world without a past... without a future... without...

A world without gods...

Puis, who had been watching him, was also shocked by the grief that was revealed at that moment. What was he thinking about? He was so desperate.

But it was only for a moment, and Ni Lan acted as if she had never expressed those things, and it was all Puys's illusion.

Nothing is an illusion.

It’s almost midnight…

Ni Lan looked at the time quietly. He was always confused about where he would appear the next moment after midnight.

In order to sort out those important information, he always spent it alone.

"Wow! I'm tired of playing!"

"Go home and rest, brother."

Even though Pu Aoshi knew that his brother would stay in Shenzhen for the next year, he still hoped that he could stay at home more.

"Come and soak in the hot spring with us! Ni Lan is leaving tomorrow, and this is your last chance to relax!" Bo Mo didn't want him to think so, and just lied to him.

Pu Ao Shi just wanted to spend more time with his brother, so he immediately nodded happily.

Then he sent someone to tell Zikaria, and he didn't go back either.

Only the world where Zkarrea was injured was achieved.

It was already very late, so Ni Lan made the excuse that she was tired and prepared to leave.

There are still two minutes until midnight.

Pomo and Puaoshi went to their rooms to change clothes, planning to soak in the hot spring for a while before going to bed.

"Ni Lan, please wait a moment."

Puis seemed to be about to say something to him.

Ni Lan was a little anxious, but she couldn't show it.

There is one minute left until midnight.

But Puis just looked at him and said nothing.

"Es?"

Puys was also watching the time.

When Ni Lan discovered this, his face turned pale and he tried to escape immediately.

"I'm really tired, Es, tomorrow..."

Puis grabbed his wrist, showing a rare display of strength.

"I won't force you to say something you don't want to say, but you can't stop me from getting the answer I want." Puis's eyes were calm, but with an unshakable determination, "Zero o'clock, you always avoid this time."

The last three seconds.

Ni Lan was so panicked that he even wanted to use his supernatural powers.

But Puis opened the realm faster than him, and Ni Lan was unable to move, and could not conjure up the crucial pocket watch.

【Midnight】

Ni Lan's expression suddenly became confused and she had no idea what was going on.

But he has become accustomed to the changes in time and space.

"Es? What's wrong?"

He didn't remember it again.

The truth that Puisi wants to pursue seems to be right before his eyes.

"Is…?"
