Lu Rankong became quiet and didn't make a sound, but Lan Yu knew that he was very anxious and on the verge of exploding.
After a long while, he finally spoke in a hoarse voice, but his tone sounded much calmer: "Xiaoyu, don't be afraid, Brother Bao is with you, and he won't let him hurt you."
Although he hasn't even got his body back yet, the calmness and determination in his words made Lan Yu feel at ease and no longer so panicked.
"Yeah..." he replied quietly.
"Tell him to turn left. That's the commercial area, there are a lot of people there—"
"I said I won't abandon your body!" Lan Yu interrupted him, panting, "There is a dark room in your villa. I can give myself an inhibitor when I go back, and then lock him in the dark room. Don't you have an injection in your suitcase? Everything will be fine with the injection."
Lu Rankong said nothing.
Lan Yu was feeling very uncomfortable now, with rapid breathing and an abnormal blush on her face. She just leaned back in her chair, looking out the window silently.
It was still about half an hour from here to Lu Rankong's villa. He calculated and hoped he could hold on until he officially entered the estrus period.
The Longte alien who was driving turned his head. Lan Yu caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye. She calmed her breathing and made herself look okay.
"If you can't hold on, do you want to find a place to rest?" he asked with concern.
Lan Yu replied coldly: "No, I want to go back."
The Longte star looked forward and continued driving. Lu Rankong's voice rang in his ears again: "Xiao Yu, let's find a busy area now. Say you want to get off the car for some fresh air, then tear off the glandular patch to let the pheromones float out. There are omegas in estrus in the downtown area. The pheromone emergency treatment center will arrive in a few minutes, and you will be safe then."
"Don't say anything. I can hold on until we get back to the villa." Lan Yu leaned her head against the back of the chair.
"But I'm very worried about you like this. I'm afraid something might happen to you. That would be more painful than killing me." Lu Rankong's voice trembled slightly, revealing his inner fear.
Lan Yu slightly changed her sitting position and said in an unsteady tone: "If he runs away with your body and then destroys it or something else, it will be more painful than killing me."
Lu Rankong didn't say anything, but Lan Yu could feel that he was having a fierce inner struggle.
He took a few deep breaths and then consoled her, "Didn't we agree to use the dark room? How do you know it won't work? Don't worry, I still have a while before I officially enter the estrus period, and I know how to protect myself."
Lu Rankong was about to speak, but Lan Yu interrupted him and said, "Tell me something else. I'm not feeling well."
After a moment of silence, Lu Rankong asked in a hoarse voice, "What do you want to hear?"
"Tell me what it's like in the spiritual realm." A surge of heat came over Lan Yu, and she gripped the leather cushion beneath her with her hands, but her tone did not change.
After a moment of silence, Lu Rankong said in a forced and relaxed tone: "Baby, do you know what I saw in your spiritual realm?"
"What did you see?" Lan Yu asked excitedly.
"Your spiritual realm is exactly like the military dormitory. There are two military uniforms hanging on the hanger. One of them is mine."
At this time, Lu Rankong was standing in a room exactly the same as Lan Yu's Room 301, looking around as he spoke.
"I've tried it. As long as I concentrate, I can synchronize my vision with yours. I'll see whatever you see. But once I stop synchronizing, I'll be in our dormitory."
Lan Yu asked: "Really? Why do you see the real scene?"
"Yes, really. I think this should be a fragment of your memory. The memories that are very profound to you will be stored in the spiritual realm. I am only a spiritual body now, and your memory fragments are real scenes to me."
"But, but what's so profound about the dormitory? I don't, I don't think the dormitory is important." Lan Yu said intermittently, suppressing her physical discomfort.
Lu Rankong smiled gently: "Because in your heart, that is our home."
Lan Yu didn't say anything else. Lu Rankong stood in the middle of the room and looked around. He gave him a detailed introduction: "There is your doll on the bed, and there are two pairs of slippers at the door. Let me see what's in the cabinet... Baby, there is a row of inhibitors in the cabinet."
Lu Rankong talked in a rambling way and Lan Yu listened quietly. He matched every description with his own memories and actually ignored the torment of the estrus period. His body felt much better and there was even a smile on the corner of his mouth.
But when he looked into the rearview mirror and noticed that "Lu Rankong" beside him was looking at him, he immediately restrained his expression.
"Wait, why is there an extra door on this wall?" Lu Rankong sounded surprised.
This room was no different from a real dormitory, except that when he walked into the kitchen, he found a white wooden door on one side of the wall, which was not in the dormitory.
"There's an extra door? Then don't open it casually, in case it's something bad." Lan Yu sat up straight.
Lu Rankong said softly: "It's okay, this is your spiritual realm, there won't be anything bad."
He walked to the door and slowly turned the handle.
After the door opened, the scene that appeared before him made him stunned at first, and then a hint of enlightenment arose in his eyes.
Lan Yu was also very curious at this time and began to urge: "Why are you silent? Did you see something? Tell me quickly..."
Lu Rankong said softly: "I just pushed the door open and saw that there was also a room inside. It turned out to be..."
He drawled.
"What is it? Tell me quickly."
"It's actually the cell we were in in prison." Hearing his anxious tone, Lu Rankong didn't keep him in suspense any longer.
He pushed open the door and walked into the cell. All the furnishings inside were the same as those in cell No. 11 where he had lived before. There were three beds on each side. The door faced a tall, narrow window, and to the right of the window was the bathroom.
Only after being beautified by Lan Yu's memory, each bed was replaced with thick bedding, which looked comfortable and soft. The windows are hung with gauze curtains, and the room is bright and clean.
Lu Rankong walked to the bathroom door and looked inside. It was spacious and clean, and there was even a white bathtub.
His eyes fell on the shelf on the wall, where there was still a row of tooth cups and toothbrushes. He counted them and there were still eight.
Lu Rankong stared at the eight tooth jars and said, "Xiaoyu, I forgot to tell you something."
"What's the matter?" Lan Yu asked.
Lu Rankong closed the bathroom door, walked to a bed and sat down, saying, "Chen Zheng is out of prison, and the man who bullied his sister has been arrested. Wang Jin and Qiu Dao were given commuted sentences after retrial, and they will both be out of prison in the second half of the year. Liu Junjie was found out for taking the blame for someone else, and he has been acquitted. His loan sharking debt has also been paid off, and he now has a small shop and is living a stable life with his parents. Qiao Fei and Lin Lin were also given commuted sentences after retrial, and they will be out of prison next year."
Lan Yu was silent for a few seconds, then asked in a low voice: "You did all this, right? Including paying back the loan sharks."
Lu Rankong touched his nose and said vaguely: "I did it..."
"Then where does your money come from? Didn't you say to hand over all your money to me? But I only have one salary card." Lan Yu's voice suddenly became stern, although there were a few gasps in between.
Lu Rankong shuddered, his mind suddenly cleared, and he quickly confessed: "I did these things when I went to Sasu Star last time. Before I left, I told my father that although my assets were frozen and I might not be able to use any of them to support my friends, my father allowed it."
After he finished speaking, he sat on the bed without moving, listening attentively to Lan Yu's reply.
Lan Yu panted a few more times and said, "Okay, then I won't bother with you. But if you want to do anything in the future, you have to tell me and don't hide it from me."
"I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just wanted to tell you after I've done it so that you can be happy. I just found out about the result and haven't had time to tell you yet." Lu Rankong explained.
"I don't care whether they are released from prison or not. It doesn't matter whether they tell me or not." Lan Yu said lightly.
Lu Rankong thought of the row of tooth cups and laughed: "Say one thing and mean another..."
Lan Yu leaned back in her chair and smiled. She wiped the sweat off her cheeks with her sleeves, but her tone was still calm: "I don't say one thing and mean another."
He added quietly, "But you did okay."
"When we are free, let's go see them, okay?" Lu Rankong patted the soft bed under him and stood up.
Lan Yu looked at the street scenery passing by outside the car window and nodded softly.
Lu Rankong was about to go back to the dormitory. He walked to the cell door and opened it. He thought he would see the dormitory kitchen, but the scene in front of him startled him.
Outside the door was no longer the dormitory room 301, but a void with no end or scope.
Just as he was about to take a step back, he found that the scenery around him had changed. The cell suddenly disappeared and he was now in a vast white void.
However, although there seemed to be nothing under his feet, he could touch solid ground, so Lu Rankong regained his composure after a second and took a tentative step forward.
His feet were still steady as he turned around in a circle. He could not see any boundaries or objects in his field of vision, as if the heaven and earth had not yet been created and he was the only one in this chaotic world.
He knew that this was in Lan Yu's spiritual realm, so this chaotic world did not worry him, but rather he found it quite novel.
He concentrated his mind and looked out through Lan Yu's line of sight, seeing rows of scenery flying behind him and the sports car still on its way back to the villa.
He also saw several familiar buildings and calculated that he would reach the entrance of the community in about ten minutes.
"Xiaoyu, baby, are you looking at the scenery?" He started to make small talk, trying to distract Lan Yu's attention.
"I'm waiting for you...waiting for you to tell me about your new discoveries. You are in my spiritual realm...please take a look around and tell me more about...what's going on." Lan Yu's voice sounded worse, and her sentences were spoken in a halting manner.
Lu Rankong was anxious, but he had to look away and said calmly, "Then continue to walk around. Do you know what I saw in your spiritual realm after I left that cell?"
He randomly chose a direction and walked forward.
"What did you see?" Lan Yu asked with half closed eyes.
"I see..." Lu Rankong suddenly paused, looked at a place in front and said, "I see a passage appeared in your small universe."
"A passage? What passage?"
Lu Rankong continued to move forward. Not far in front of him, a huge space distortion gradually appeared in the void world, forming a transparent circle, like a long circular passage.
As they walked, he asked, "Xiaoyu, are we about to reach the community? How do you feel now?"
"I just checked the navigation, it's about ten minutes away." Lan Yu said, and then urged in a trembling voice: "Tell me which passage quickly."
Lu Rankong suppressed his inner anxiety and continued in a relaxed tone: "Okay, dear audience friends, now Brother Bao will take you into the mysterious time and space tunnel to explore the hidden world behind it."
He stopped in front of the distorted space and asked, "Guess what's behind that?"
He knew that no matter what he saw, it was all something that existed in Lan Yu's mind, so instead of being afraid of the unknown world, he also had the urge to try it out.
Lan Yu could only imagine the scene from his description and said, "Maybe there's a stuffed brown bear behind it?"
"Your Gu Gu?"
"Um……"
"What else? Besides Gu Gu..."
Lan Yu took another deep breath and said, "Maybe there's another piece of cake, chestnut... chestnut cake. I forgot about it when we set out and put it in the refrigerator. It will definitely go bad when we get back."
"It's okay. I'll ask someone to take out the cake and throw it away tomorrow."
Lu Rankong answered as he stepped into the distorted space.
There was a flash of light and shadow in front of his eyes. He closed his eyes dizzily, and waited a few seconds to adjust before slowly opening them.
He looked around slowly with a look of astonishment. There was no Gu Gu or chestnut cake behind the passage, but a lively and chaotic scene.
The first thing that catches the eye is several long mechanical jibs with cameras mounted on them, and a group of people with guns in their hands are confronting each other.
The people and machines sitting around him made him realize that he was on the set of a movie.
Whether it is the dormitory or the prison cell that you see at the beginning, they are all very quiet and still life, but in this scene, there are people everywhere.
He walked slowly forward. The people around him seemed not to see him. They looked through his body as if they saw nothing and continued to do their own things.
Lu Rankong looked around outside the crowd and suddenly saw a familiar figure.
He saw Lan Yu, wearing a black suit, sitting on a chair in the middle of the field, with his legs crossed, a cigar in his mouth, and his eyes narrowed slightly as he looked ahead. Beside him stood a man who looked like a subordinate and was saying something to him.
There was a camera facing him in the sky in front of him and on both sides.
That was Lan Yu, a person he had never seen before. She had a look of superiority on her face, an air of arrogance that looked down on everything, and yet she was calm and composed, with a confident look.
It looks strange, yet so attractive.
"Xiaoyu, so you still want to be an actor?" Lu Rankong suddenly realized and felt that he had discovered Lan Yu's secret thoughts.
"What?" Lan Yu asked.
Lu Rankong said: "I saw you acting on a set. It should be acting, right? There are cameras pointing at you."
Lan Yu leaned her head against the back of the chair and moved left and right uncomfortably. His brain was a little slow now. After hearing Lu Rankong's words, he took a few seconds to react and said slowly: "Tell me what the scene was like and what I was doing."
Lu Rankong heard his voice was relatively steady, and thought that the Longte alien should also be driving, so he replied: "You are wearing a black suit and sitting in a, let me think, auditorium, with a cigar and a gun... Opposite you, there is a man kneeling on the ground, his hands are tied behind his back, and there is a sack on his head... He is calling you Prince Wang, begging you to spare his life..."
"Xingyun..." Lan Yu said softly.
"What?" Lu Rankong asked.
Lan Yu stared blankly out the car window, her eyes unfocused, "I was filming a movie called... Xing Yun. This movie won me an award for the first time, although... it was a supporting role."
Lu Rankong laughed dumbly, "Xingyun, I hope I can really see a movie like this."
He felt that the time was almost up, so he began to concentrate on staying in the same scene with Lan Yu, saying, "Xiao Yu, can we temporarily stop the tour of Brother Bao's spiritual realm? Once we have dealt with the Longte people, I will accompany you to take a leisurely tour."
Lan Yu nodded slowly, then suddenly realized that Lu Rankong couldn't see, and nodded again.
"I can see you nodding now. My eyes are aligned with yours. Your eyes are my eyes." Lu Rankong said, "So don't be afraid. I am always with you."
Lan Yu hummed again, but sounded a little better, obviously comforted by Lu Rankong's words.
The sports car had already arrived at the gate of the community. The automatic identification system was activated, the gate slowly opened, and it drove into the community amid the salute of the security guard.
"K, can you still hold on? Is there any problem?" "Lu Rankong" turned around and asked again.
Lan Yu closed her eyes and said nothing. After he asked and got no response, he didn't say anything else. It didn't look like he minded Lan Yu's attitude.
A few minutes later, the sports car drove along the driveway and stopped in front of Lu Rankong's villa. The door opened and the car entered smoothly.
"I'll get off first, you go park the car." Lan Yu said.
"Lu Rankong" replied: "Okay, then you go down first."
Lan Yu pushed the car door, but her hands had no strength and the door didn't move at all. Lu Rankong leaned over to open his door and asked considerately, "Do you need me to help you?"
"No need..." Lan Yu lifted her feet twice before moving herself out of the car under the meaningful gaze of "Lu Rankong".
He had just taken two steps when he felt another wave of heat coming over him, stronger and more unbearable than the previous one. The blood in the veins seemed to be boiling, with small bubbles coming out and burning the lungs.
Lu Rankong could see from his fluctuating vision that he was walking unsteadily, and he was filled with anxiety.
He was like a ferocious trapped beast, locked in a cage, with only sharp fangs and claws.
"K, I want to talk to you." "Lu Rankong" also got out of the car and walked over slowly.
Lan Yu ignored him and continued to stagger into the house.
"I know your secret. You are not the original K."
