He came from the bell tonight

The bright moonlight shines down from the transparent dome, filling the flowing water light on the stage.The ruins of the city were submerged in the fire, the shadows of the mountains lingered, and the vegetation withered.

In the hall surrounded by raging fire, someone was sitting upright, without changing his face, and even smiled at the coming danger.

The sonorous and powerful singing broke through the long night.

Amidst the waves of applause, Su Ling almost fell asleep.When he lowered his head precariously, he seemed to have bumped into the hard fabric, and he woke up reflexively, just in time to meet Xiao Huaiyan's gaze that he had no time to look back.

In the dark light, Xiao Huaiyan's appearance was not real, but he obviously didn't expect Su Ling to wake up, so he turned his head away unnaturally.

The slightly long hair is neat and decent, but it is far less soft than it looks.

Xiao Huaiyan distanced himself hesitantly, and occasionally passed by Suling from the corner of his eye.

Su Ling looked at him.His back was slightly stiff, and he might have fallen into vigilance.There are no red flags here, no idea what he's afraid of.

"Look, who is that?!" Lian Xiao covered his mouth in amazement.

I saw a graceful young woman appearing on the stage, bright and gentle, her gestures were full of coquettishness.Especially her singing voice, ethereal and soft, like flowing clouds and dust.

Su Ling remembered that it was Yun Qing.

At this time, she was completely different from when she was in Xiao Shiyue's old house.She faded from her melancholy, and stood under the spotlight, with An Ran's joy in her eyes.She may like singing very much, so she is intoxicated by the role and cannot extricate herself.

Such a melodious singing voice went from quiet to exciting, which easily aroused the emotions of the audience, and followed her back to the battle of glory more than ten years ago.

Su Ling had heard some fragments in the collection of poems that Xiao Huaiyan read to him.In that story full of gunpowder, the power of the restoration of the empire gradually surged amid the singing and dancing, and the sudden undercurrent almost tore apart the already fragile alliance.

In the row behind Su Ling, Xizi stared at Yun Qing motionlessly, and explained the scene to the students around him who couldn't understand in a low voice: "At that time, Chief Fang, who was still a member of the Alliance Councilor, sat alone in Xuecheng and led the people to rise up to resist. Resolutely not surrendering to the imperial forces, we have been struggling until the day when General Xiao Shiyue returned from the northern galaxy. The entire Syracuse City was destroyed in that fire, and all the buildings today have been rebuilt."

"But who is that woman?" someone asked.

Xizi felt that Yun Qing's gaze had passed her direction, and her entire face flushed red in the darkness.He tried to calm himself down, but couldn't hide his excited tone: "That was the previous captain of the Liberty Ship, code-named Jasmine. She rarely appeared in the public eye, and no one knew what she looked like. In the Battle of Glory In the movie, the Liberty Ship has stood with the Alliance from the beginning to the end. Therefore, her code name will always be engraved on the monument in Syracuse."

"I know!" Someone answered, "She has disappeared since the Battle of Glory, so the Liberty Ship has no real captain until now. I took a photo when I visited Syracuse last time. Let me show you. It's a jasmine flower."

When everyone was discussing, Su Ling saw a large expanse of white flowers suddenly blooming on the stage, pure and elegant, surrounding Yun Qing in full dress in the center.When she raised her hand, there were slight wounds on her fingertips.

Those things were not only special effects, Su Ling could see clearly, and some of them were just flower buds—but Yun Qing cut his fingers, which gave birth to patches of jasmine flowers.

She was already weak.At this time, his face was even paler, almost transparent.

But she had an extremely contented look on her face, intoxicated by the bloom that everyone was looking at.She's still the young woman singing among the ruins, but also closer to herself than at any other moment.

"At this moment, we are constructing memory," the character playing the chief walked towards her with a high tone, "It is memory that creates time, allowing us to remember everything that happened."

Su Ling gently repeated the word "memory".

Indeed, there was no speaking of time until he had the picture in his mind.In other words, time exists only in memory.

This is, Su Ling suddenly sniffed.

There is a faint smell of dust in the air, which seems familiar.

Before he could trace back, Xiao Huaiyan's lukewarm voice interrupted him: "Sit down, the performance is not over yet."

The finger that was pulling Su Ling's sleeve was withdrawn quickly, Xiao Huaiyan avoided looking at him.

In the next performance, Su Ling was drowsy again, and just when he was about to be completely conquered by sleepiness, there was a sudden movement behind him.

Xizi was so excited that she almost jumped up: "...I, choose me!"

On the stage, Yun Qing's gaze lingered among the auditorium, and finally locked on the seat number.

Xizi found a bouquet of flowers from nowhere, and almost rushed onto the stage, her brows and eyes twitching with joy.But when he really got in front of Yun Qing, he took a few steps back, for fear of offending the person in front of him.

"Thank you." Yun Qing smiled at him and stretched out his hand.

The pure white lace gloves stayed in mid-air for a long time, until a light kiss touched the back of the hand.

"Next, I would like to ask a guest to come on stage and dance with me." Yun Qing clicked the number on the touchpad.

One after another blue circles lit up on the back of Suling's seat counterclockwise.

When he walked onto the stage, he felt that there was always a vague gaze following behind him.Especially when Yun Qing took his hand and asked him to sit down, he inexplicably felt that the owner of his eyes was not very happy.

Just as the music sounded like an explosion. The drums sounded instantly, and all the lights under the dome were instantly extinguished.

However, it did not light up again for a long time.

……wrong.

Suling smelled the faint smell of dust again.

Immediately afterwards, a strong light shone in the depths of the stage for a moment, and with a bang, the entire dome shattered.Countless glass fell like rain, and the dim light of the sky fell on the panic-stricken crowd.

One after another white lights lit up amidst the sound of explosions in every corner of the venue, tearing apart the tranquil night.

The thick soot gradually blocked Suling's vision.

"Quick, hurry up! Someone is injured!" A voice not far from the northeast shouted.

Su Ling quickly turned around and followed the sound.However, thick smoke quickly filled the night, and the surrounding footsteps were chaotic.The voice calling for help just now became far away again.

A dazzling white light source passed through the thick fog, and Xiao Huaiyan's voice came from the communication terminal: "I saw you. You are fine, don't run around where you are."

Su Ling followed the light source and only vaguely saw the black gloves.After a while, the familiar smell of dust caught his attention.

No, Su Ling immediately reacted, the explosion. The sound of the explosion was only used to confuse the sight——

"Ah!" A short scream sounded from behind Su Ling.

"You, who are you?"

The dagger lay across Yun Qing's neck, gently drawing a bloodstain.

However, the wound healed very slowly, only a hoarse sneer was returned.

"Working for those guys is nothing more than that."

Yun Qing was startled: "You, you are..."

A hand tightly covered her mouth from behind.

When Su Ling cautiously approached, he saw that Yun Qing had already stopped struggling.The man in the black cloak seemed to hold her with ease.

Yun Qing tried hard to open her eyes, shook her head in Su Ling's direction, and signaled him not to approach.

"It's you again." The man in black's voice was harsh.

Su Ling said, "It's me."

Letting him escape last time was a mistake.

But Su Ling did not act lightly.

He sensed the aura of the man in black, which was a familiar unspeakable fear.terror power.Different from the calmness when we met last time, this person in front of me is in a state of rampage and may lose control at any time.

"What do you want?" Su Ling asked.

A voice suddenly came from the communication terminal: "...Where are you? People from the police station will arrive soon, and leave quickly. Hey, did you hear that?"

Immediately fell into a signal loss state.

The hijacker smiled when he heard the sound, and glanced at Yun Qing: "As a weapon, you seem to have failed your duty."

"Nothing to do with you."

"Ha, I really don't understand why you should be loyal to human beings, just because you will be abandoned in the end? If that's the case, it's better to be liberated earlier so that you can return to freedom."

A strange sneer filled Su Ling's eardrums.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the corner, holding a short gun, and rushed towards the man in black.

Before the gun was ejected from the chamber, a red light flashed, and the handle of the gun shattered and fell to the ground.However, the red light didn't end, and went towards the throat of the person who fired the gun.

With a "snap", the impact light was blocked by the hard curtain.

Su Ling stood in front of him, and the shattered curtain returned to its original soft appearance, falling into his palm.He lowered his eyes slightly and found Xi Zidu.

It turned out that the boy was hiding in the dark and never left.

"Yes, I'm sorry...I..." Xizi apologized to Suling inarticulately, then looked worriedly at Yun Qing who was being held hostage, and bluffed at the man in black: "Hey, the people from the police department have arrived, you If you don't want to be killed directly, let her go quickly."

"Oh?" The wanted man seemed irritated, "Small human, what if I say I don't want to?"

"I don't know who you are, but according to the alliance regulations, you will be punished as treason if you hold General Xiao's belongings hostage. And your family and friends will be punished because of you without exception." Xizi Du Yue said , the sound becomes weaker.

"I'm alone, what am I afraid of." The wanted criminal seemed to be watching a joke.

Xizi lowered her eyes guiltyly: "What if, what if."

"He's scared."

Su Ling's eyes were flat, and he made a judgment.

"Otherwise, he will attack directly."

The man wrapped in a black robe narrowed his eyes, he was silent for a moment, and threatened: "It seems that you want to save her? Then, do as I say."

"Okay," Xizi breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately agreed, "What do you want?"

"Notify the police department to evacuate immediately. I want an unmarked spaceship. Otherwise, I will kill her directly."

"You don't have a heavy weapon, how could it be possible—" As soon as Xi Zidu pointed out, he heard an explosion in the distance. It should be in a street in Caiyu City. The sudden shock wave forced him to lie on the ground, " you……"

In panic, he heard Su Ling say: "You let her go, I'll go with you."

"... By you?"

"There is no contract on her, it is useless for you to kill her, no one will make a deal with you."

The wanted criminal grabbed Yun Qing's hair, wandered between her and Su Ling with probing eyes for a moment, and said meaningfully: "Even if there is a contract, human beings will not care about your life or death."

Su Ling didn't speak.

But at this time, in the terminal that was connected again, Xiao Huaiyan was furious: "Where are you?! I know you heard it, please reply quickly."

"Clear the field." Su Ling said.

"……what?"

Su Ling hung up the terminal.

The man in black on the opposite side thought for a moment, then threw Yun Qing aside.Xi Zidu immediately rushed forward to catch her, turned her head and nodded towards Su Ling, and took her away.

Su Ling completely restrained his attacking aura, and calmly walked in front of the hijacker.

The wind was like a blade, cutting the robe around the man's neck.

A number was revealed. A001.
