don't pull my short legs

His voice is very soft, and if he is not careful, he will be drowned in the sound of wind blowing grass and leaves.

But Tu You heard it.

However, Tu You didn't understand what Shi Yuan was talking about.

Maybe he has understood the literal meaning, but the brain refuses to accept this possibility.

The sky was getting darker by the second, Tu You raised his head, trying to stare at Shi Yuan who was almost submerged in the shadow of the tree: "But you are—"

The man standing in front of him didn't have any ghostly aura on him.

"Yes." Shi Yuan said flatly, "I am a human being."

With these words, the last ray of clouds on the horizon was completely engulfed by darkness.The moon rose and hung miserably white in the sky, big and round, emitting a faint light.There is not a single star that can be seen around.

Tu You took a step back.

"I have saved a human being—" Li Qi's words twitched and echoed in his ears, and then pierced through the ear canal fiercely like a sharp knife.

"You..." Shock made his throat constrict, and he could only spit out thin syllables.

Facing Shangtu You's surprised eyes, Shi Yuan looked very calm.He even squatted down leisurely, picked up the water bottle that Zang Shiyi had thrown on the ground when he fainted, and screwed on the cap: "I lived downstairs from you back then, and I saw you through the corridor a few times during the surgery."

The moonlight shone on Shi Yuan's face, making his face even fairer.There is no blood at all, like a piece of cold jade.

Tu You still couldn't say a word.

He stared at Shi Yuan's face, desperately recalling the faces under those protective masks in his mind, but he couldn't remember a single face.

He didn't remember if he had ever seen Shi Yuan—even if he had, he was just a human being in his eyes.As far as he is concerned, they are all existences with syringes and scalpels ready to hurt him.

Rather than being like him, an experimental product lying on a cold operating table to be slaughtered.

"Xiao Zang's authority is not enough to check the files, don't you wonder what's going on?" Shi Yuan shook the water bottle up and down twice, stared at the very center of the vortex, and asked softly.

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was telling a sweet fairy tale.

Tu You took another step back and didn't stop until he met Zang Shixi.

"What is there to ask?" I don't know if it was because of the bottle of water, but there was an inexplicable bitter taste in his mouth.

That ability to heal quickly wasn't born with him, but acquired through numerous injections and surgeries.Tu You is not a fool, he knows where this ability comes from.

Shi Yuan smiled.

The stone in his right hand hadn't been thrown away yet, he raised his hand and smashed it hard on his forehead under Tu You's horrified gaze without hesitation.

Blood gushed out in an instant.

"Do you understand?" Throwing the stone in the grass casually, Shi Yuan didn't wipe the blood that had dripped down his chin, but sat on the ground and turned his head to look at Tu You.

Tu You felt his throat was being choked: "You—"

The dark red blood flowed through the plain white skin, and dripped down the white shirt along the chin, leaving a trace.And the wound that was smashed out was healing little by little. Although it was not as fast as Tu You's usual recovery speed, compared to ordinary people, it was already at the level of a monster's recovery.

He suddenly understood where the bags of plasma that had been pumped out of his body in those years ended up going.

For so many years, it's not that he didn't think that the previous experiment was finally applied to human beings, but he never expected that in that white building, besides their group of monster cubs, there would be a... ...

Tu You stared blankly at Shi Yuan's face.

Twenty years ago, the other party should have only been a teenager.

"I've been there much longer than you." After a while, the wound stopped bleeding.Realizing that Tu You had been staring at him, Shi Yuan wiped the blood from his lips with his fingertips, "There were five or six waves of cubs changed in that room, and you were the last one to live in."

He spoke very plainly, and between words, several fresh lives were wiped away so lightly.

"But..." Tu You barely maintained a trace of clarity, "Your father..."

Last time at the chairman's house, the other party mentioned Shi Yuan's father.Zang Shixi also made it clear that Shi Yuan's father was the old director of the management bureau, who worked hard all his life, and finally died in the line of duty.

With such a powerful father, how could Shi Yuan stay with them?

Hearing the word father, Shi Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed out loud.

The ruins under the moonlight were very quiet, without any insects chirping.Only Shi Yuan's laughter was blown intermittently by the wind, at first it was a suppressed low laugh, then it gradually became high-pitched, and finally turned into an undisguised laugh.His wanton laughter echoed throughout the wilderness, completely suppressing the wind.

Tu You had never seen him like this.

"Otherwise?" Laughing almost out of breath, Shi Yuan clutched his stomach, and managed to stand up after a long time, "Why do you think a laboratory with no background has survived for more than ten years?"

His eyes were extremely bright under the moonlight.It's clearly a cold light, but it's scalding so hot that it's frightening.

Captured by these eyes, Tu You was stunned for a long time before the sound of collapse came from his mind.

"You..." opened his mouth, his teeth chattered up and down, "Your father..."

"Yes, my father." Shi Yuan followed Tu You's words, "Without him and his friends, the laboratory would have been sealed down long ago."

When he said this, he was still smiling, as if he was talking about something interesting with a friend, but it was just a small talk.

Tu You couldn't hold back anymore.

His legs went limp and he almost fell to the ground, but Shi Yuan reached out to help him.

Shi Yuan's hand was very cold, even through the fluffy fur, Tu You still felt the bone-chilling chill.

"Do you hate him?" Held up by these cold hands, Tu You stared at Shi Yuan, and the other party's faint whisper sounded in his ear, "Do you hate them?"

Tu You bit his lip, he thought he should say something, but he couldn't say anything.

After waiting for a long time, without waiting for a response, Shi Yuan smiled indifferently: "I hate it."

"I spent the first 12 years of my life here." Holding Tu You, he turned around, his eyes lingering on the ruins, "I was locked in the room, waiting for the experimenter to come to check my body every day, and take medicine on time Injections. If the experiment on the monster cubs downstairs makes progress, I will also undergo surgery together."

Everything that Tu You has experienced, Shi Yuan has experienced.

"I always thought I was an orphan." He raised his hand and touched Tu You's ear, as if patiently coaxing a kitten, "But after being rescued, that man told me that he was my biological father. "

Tu You wanted Shi Yuan to stop talking, as if he knew what he was thinking, he gently covered his mouth with his cold hand.

"What kind of biological father would send his son to do experiments, ignore them for 12 years, and bring people to deal with it in a fake manner until he couldn't hide it. In order to protect himself, he would kill all the experimenters, and even wanted to send him to the lab again. How about shutting up your son?" The moon disappeared into the clouds, and Shi Yuan's voice was as ethereal as flying ash, "In his eyes, I am just an experimental product that has symbolic significance, can provide data, and can be used for several years .”

"The current situation..." Tu You really couldn't listen anymore.

"But it doesn't matter." Shi Yuan let go of his hand, put Tu You back beside Zang Shixi, and then looked down at him, "I'm still alive, they are all dead."

Having said that, he couldn't help laughing again.

Tu You looked up at him: "You..."

"Why, aren't you happy?" Shi Yuan covered his mouth, his eyes shone with light, "The people who participated in the establishment of the laboratory all died, I thought you would be as happy as me."

He fell on the ground in a daze and listened to the conversation between Tu You and Shi Yuan. It was not until he heard this sentence that Zang Shiyi barely regained his strength.

Due to the medicine, his vision was very blurred, so he could only grab Tu You and hide him in his arms by feeling: "You killed the people in Rende Hospital!"

When he saw Shi Yuan picking up the stone with his left hand, he understood, no wonder he didn't smell a monster in the hospital that time, because the murderer in the office was not a monster at all, but a human being through and through!

"Eleventh!" Tu You was surprised and delighted to be picked up suddenly, but the joy only lasted for a moment.Following the sentence that Zang Shiyong yelled at Shi Yuan, what Lin Shen said in the office last night instantly appeared in his mind.

He looked at Shi Yuan in disbelief: "The current situation?!"

It seemed that he did not expect that Zang Shixi would wake up. Shi Yuan was a little surprised, but he did not move, but he folded his arms and laughed lowly: "Then do you think that if you don't pay a certain price, those who are already high and powerful How do people tear it off?"

"The medicine...you took the medicine too." Dizzy, Zang Shixi could only support the ground with his hands, raised his head and looked at Shi Yuan with difficulty, "Why?"

He kept thinking about the locker until he was fascinated. Although it was a private locker on the surface, if the director wanted to check the contents inside, those fingerprint code locks were like fakes.

Without answering this question, Shi Yuan smiled faintly: "Eleventh, you are really a sympathetic monster. It is worthwhile for me to specially arrange you to take care of Chai Chong and his wife."

"Shi Yuan!" Tu You shouted.

"I know you will find out the truth, but I didn't expect you to do better than I imagined." The blood on his face had almost dried up, Shi Yuan touched the coagulated blood scab, "Thank you, if you didn't make trouble Big, I really don’t know how to take the road ahead.”

Zang Shixi raised his head suddenly: "You know—"

Shi Yuan shook his head: "No, like you, I only found out later."

"Then why—" Zang Shixi wanted to ask him why he didn't immediately stop the medical team's actions.

"I've already signed the consent form, so what if we stop?" Shi Yuan smiled, "Can they survive? No. Since they can't survive, wouldn't it be better to make some contributions?"

"You have also seen it." He said calmly, "The human government attaches great importance to it, and the response has been very good."

The forehead was throbbing with pain, Zang Shixi held Tu Youhu in his arms, and slowly moved back, "You killed people! There are monsters! If you don't give the medicine to the dean—"

"Those cubs will die." Shi Yuan cut him off decisively, "Even if there is no potion, that person will still conduct experiments on the cubs. Besides - what I killed was only a couple who sold their children A beast, and a man who experiments with cubs."

After a pause, Shi Yuan's expression softened a bit: "Of course, I shouldn't put the blame on you. It's just that the situation was so sudden that I forgot about the problem with my hand, so I had to let you block it for me."

His tone was as gentle as ever, but Tu You couldn't help but tremble: "The thing about the nutrient solution..."

"It's just some growth agents, not worth mentioning." Shi Yuan looked up at the deep night sky: "It's late at night, I think we should start quickly."

"What are you going to do!" He grabbed the back of Zang Shiyi's neck easily, and Tu You pounced on him to bite him, but was grabbed, tapped somewhere on the spine, and then collapsed uncontrollably down.

"We all came from here." After dragging Zang Shiyi and Tu You to the grass not far from the ruins, Shi Yuan turned his head and glanced at the dark ruins, "Dare you say that you don't hate taking monsters The one doing the experiment?"

Falling into the grass, Tu You gritted his teeth: "But those monsters are innocent!"

"I've said it before." Stretching out his hand to test the direction of the wind, Shi Yuan said softly, "Everything has a price."

He took out a metal bottle from his pocket and spilled the liquid in it from the grass to the ruins: "If the sacrifice of a few monsters can bring about the safety of more monsters, then it is worth it."

"Of course." Putting away the metal bottle, Shi Yuan looked down at Tu You, "You and Shiyi will not sacrifice in vain."

Following these words, he touched his pocket, took out the windproof lighter, pressed it, and threw it out.

What kind of special liquid was contained in the metal bottle, the moment the lighter fell into the ruins, the flames rose against the wind and burst into a wall of fire in a few seconds.

"Although a lot of people have been liquidated, I'm too impatient." The fire light flickered Shi Yuan's face, but he did not hide, but continued to stand still and talk to Tu You, "Someone already suspected me, but..."

He bowed his head in embarrassment: "There are a few people who haven't been dealt with, so I can't be caught yet."

"You..." Seeing that the fire was about to reach the grass, Tu You couldn't move, so he could only continue to stare at Shi Yuan, "What do you mean?"

"After you leave, I will kill Lin Shen and the others." In the warm yellow firelight, Shi Yuan's expression suddenly became indifferent, "I will go back and tell them that you and Zang Shiyi forcibly took me away— —”

"——in order for me to tell who else participated in the experiment." He pursed his lips slightly, "then tried to pretend that I committed suicide in fear of guilt, but under my resistance, the two of you died in the fire in the end .”

"Are we to be blamed for all the crimes?" Tu You closed his eyes as the heat wave was already surging.

"You are all cubs who participated in the experiment back then, and your motivation is very strong." Amidst the crackling sound, Shi Yuan coughed twice, "Thanks to my father, my name is not in the file."

Tu You laughed.

He laughed so hard that his whole body trembled, Shi Yuan couldn't help but look at him a few times: "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing." The fluff shook, and Tu You almost burst into tears, "I just didn't expect..."

He felt that the scene in front of him was extremely absurd: "The one who killed us in the end was actually the person who was imprisoned in the laboratory with us."

Not those humans who treat them as experimental subjects.

Shi Yuan was silent.

"I'm sorry." After a while, he whispered, "I'm not a nice person."

Tu You no longer wants to talk to Shi Yuan.He tried hard to roll towards Zang Shiyi, wanting to get closer to him.

Zang Shixi fell into a coma again, and Tu You could only move his recalcitrant body bit by bit.

That's fine, he thought.

They met here in the first place, and now they come back here after going around, probably because of God's will.

"A Yuan!" While struggling hard, a cry suddenly exploded from behind.

Standing on the hillside, Li Qi stared dumbfounded at the soaring flames: "You are crazy!"

Shi Yuan and Tu You are both stunned.

A few seconds later, Tu You was grabbed.

"Don't come here!" Holding Tu You's neck, a slight twist could break the other's neck, Shi Yuan raised his voice, "Otherwise I'll kill him now!"

Although he was so smoked that tears flowed down his cheeks, Tu You could still hear Shi Yuan's instant panic.

"A Yuan, you are not this kind of person." Li Qi walked towards them, "Put Xiao You down and go back with me!"

"Li Qi!" Shi Yuan's face darkened, "Don't force me!"

With that said, he lifted Tu You into the air.

Li Qi stopped.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" His delicate face was full of exhaustion, he seemed to run in a hurry, and he rolled around somewhere, his suit was full of dust, and his hair was messy.

Shi Yuan pursed his lips, but his tone was firm: "I told you when I was brought out that year, I will never forgive those people!"

I don't know if it was because of seeing Li Qi or because of the fire, but when Tu You saw Shi Yuan's forehead was sweating.

"What about me?" Li Qi stepped forward.

"What do you mean?" Shi Yuan was forced to take a step back.

"As a commissioner of the administration, I am also responsible for not being able to deal with the matter of the laboratory in time." Li Qi lowered his eyelashes, seemingly weak and pressing forward, "You didn't forgive me?"

As if he didn't expect to hear such words, Shi Yuan frowned, and finally a little more irritated in his words, "Don't make trouble for me! If you still think I'm the director, don't stop me!"

Li Qi looked at him.

"A Yuan." After looking at each other for a moment, Li Qi called his name, "You have always been my A Yuan in my heart, not anyone else."

Shi Yuan was taken aback.

Just when he was in a daze, Li Qi's eyes flashed, and with a step of his legs, he rushed directly towards the burning ruins.

"Li Qi!" Shi Yuan threw Tu You into the grass without thinking about continuing to grab Tu You, "Come back! Stop!"

He was thrown into the air, and in the flames and smoke soaring into the sky, Tu You could only see the backs engulfed by the flames one after the other.

——This is the memory before he passed out completely.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were bright white.

Tu You stared at the white piece for a long time, and finally realized that it was the ceiling of the hospital ward.

"Are you awake?" Still looking at the ceiling, a gentle voice suddenly came from beside my ear.

Tu You jumped up suddenly, trying to get into Zang Shiyi's arms.

"Clothes!" The little sheep who was taking Zang Shiyi's notes at the side felt that his eyes were going to go blind, and ran out with his face covered, "What kind of monster is this! You are playing hooligans without wearing clothes in broad daylight!"

Only then did Tu You realize that he had transformed back into a human form.

He didn't care about this, and stretched out his hands to hug Zang Shiyi tightly.He used so much strength that he almost squeezed his whole body into the opponent's flesh and blood to entangle him to death.

Such a hug is not comfortable, but Zang Shixi didn't push Tu You away, but hugged him back, taking advantage of the situation and gently kissed the top of his hair: "Don't be afraid, it's okay."

Burying his head on Zang Shiyi's neck, he gnawed his teeth for a long time like a tantrum, until his white neck was covered with tooth marks, and Tu You raised his head.

After staring at each other for a while, he closed his eyes, and naturally let Zang Shixi kiss him.

It's a long kiss.

"Where's my uncle?" Panting, Tu You let go, nestling in Zang Shiyi's arms.

"Li Chu is fine, just slightly injured." Zang Shixi tucked the quilt up for Tu You, then paused, "Shi Yuan...has been brought under control."

There was a bit of hesitation in his tone, as if he was hiding something.

Tu You opened his eyes sensitively.

"Don't hide anything from me." He reached out and grabbed Zang Shiyi's wrist, "Tell me."

"It's nothing..." Zang Shixi wasn't too surprised when the bureau handed over the news, "It's my parents... who were killed by Shi Yuan."

It wasn't a coincidence that he came to make trouble last time, but it was arranged by Shi Yuan.The purpose is to let them return to the small town, so that it is convenient for Lin Shen to bring people to the door to encircle and suppress them.

Shi Yuan was very aware of their tempers, and took every step boldly and carefully.If Li Qi didn't come out suddenly this time, he and Tu You would have been burnt to ashes long ago.

Tu You couldn't help but clenched Zang Shiyi's hand: "You..."

"I'm fine." Zang Shixi smiled.

He has no feelings for those two parents who are related by blood. He has not felt much in his heart at this point.

From the moment they were sent into the laboratory, they were strangers.

Holding the quilt, Tu You observed Zang Shixi's expression, and said softly, "Eleven, let's go home, take me to see the cloud."

After 20 years, the promise finally came to a day of fulfillment.

In his expectant eyes, Zang Xihui held his hand: "Okay."

The author has something to say: The main text is over~ More episodes will start on Thursday.

For the sake of completing the plot, I will write Li Qi and Shi Yuan's side story first, recalling the killing of Gao Yu, which can be skipped.After that, there are happy cookies for new couples and little ones.

Thank you for your company!We are destined to see you in the next book =w=
