【Zhou Fumei】Walk left and stand right

01.

Faust fell in love with Mephistopheles at first sight.

At the welcome ceremony of the Integration Movement, Mephisto stood among a group of disgraced soldiers and delivered an impassioned welcome speech.

Faust had never seen such a shining person.That commander was really outstanding, he was clearly a slender boy in his teens, but he completely suppressed everyone who was several times his age in terms of aura, like the magic needle in the team.

The little black snake was shot by Cupid's arrow on the spot.So, on the second day after joining the organization, the silent sniper stood in front of Mephisto, stumbled and finished the longest sentence he had ever spoken in his life.

After expressing his thoughts, he thoughtfully gave Mephisto three days to think.Mephisto was the first person he fell in love with, and his first love was young and serious. He hoped that Mephisto would have enough time to think it over, and then reply to himself with the same solemnity.

The thinking cycle of that handsome young man does not need three days.Mephisto leaned back in his chair and answered him with an angelic smile.

"Huh? Where is the black loach that wants to eat swan meat?"

Faust intercepted Mephisto in the combat command room. When the commander said this, all the cadres of the integration movement were present.Tallulah shook her head, Patriot sighed, Frost Star frowned, and her voice was as cold as death:

"I'm not afraid of retribution."

Mephisto doesn't care about their evaluation.He raised his face to Faust, and pointed his chin at the exit glass door: "Understood? You can get out."

Faust, holding his solemn first love for 16 years, shattered into powder on the spot.

02.

In fact, as long as Faust stayed in the integration movement for more than three days, he would definitely hear about Mephisto's misdeeds.

Mephisto is not very popular, but he is very lucky, and the love letters he has received can be piled up from the roof of the integration movement all the way to the gate.The Commander had no intention of dating anyone, yet he did not reject offers of love—in the words of the Kingslayer, "pretending and acting."

After the suitors saw his true face, they retreated in due course.Faust is the mudslide among the suitors. The brainless black snake still does not give up. He starts to appear frequently in front of Mephisto, holding all kinds of gifts on his body. The spirit to get up.

At this time, the newcomers have already gone through several rounds of cruel experience.Faust's own strength is good, and he stands out from the same group of members, becoming a hot candidate for cadres in front of Tallulah.

With this relationship, Mephisto finally treated him better.Faust almost thought he had a chance, so he mustered up his courage and launched a second round of offensive to Mephisto:

"Mephisto, when...will you date me?"

Mephisto was picking out all kinds of gifts brought back by Faust, all of which were precious materials left over from the battlefield.Upon hearing this, the commander gave him a second angelic smile:

"Acquaintance? When you can speak clearly."

Faust has been in closed training and top-secret missions all year round. He has never said a few words other than "yes" and "mission completed" since he was born. Now he is facing his sweetheart directly, and he stumbles even a word.

The little black snake lowered its head lower and lower, its thick bangs covered most of its cheeks.W on the side couldn't stand it anymore, so he choked on Mephistopheles: "What do you want a sniper who can speak well?"

Mephisto put away his smile: "It's none of your business."

Seeing the commander's displeasure, Faust's expression became even worse: "I...I will work hard and train."

W looked at Mephistopheles, then at the little silly snake, and decided to punish this overly arrogant commander.

03.

After all, Mephisto didn't think he was wrong at all.

In this doomsday season, who knows that the world of Terra will be destroyed by a giant meteorite one day.Wouldn't it be too boring to stick to the same person at that time?

But life is full of little surprises.When Faust appeared in front of Mephisto again, the cadres at the whole table were stunned.

Mephisto was also dumbfounded.He stared at Faust for a while like a ghost, and asked the hearts of everyone present.

"...Who are you?"

Faust broke in front of the cadres for the second time.Tallulah shook her head, the Patriot sighed, and the Kingslayer sneered, with a gloating voice:

"I didn't see it, but he was a handsome guy."

W stood not far away, turning the scissors in his hands.

Faust also didn't know why the mercenary cadre had a sudden whim and insisted on cutting off his thick bangs.The little black snake fought hard and failed gloriously.

Since then, the integration movement lost a gloomy boy and added a diamond-shaped man.

Facts have proved that gold can always shine, and handsome guys always shine. After cutting off the hair that blocked his face, Faust's attention soared.Coupled with his outstanding record on the battlefield, no one would laugh at him as a little black loach eating swan meat.

Faust's dormitory door also stocked up on gifts, and there was a trend comparable to Mephisto's.The little black snake didn't care about the change of his status at all, he only had Mephisto in his eyes, and whenever he got the chance, he would hold a huge crossbow and follow behind his sweetheart.

For example now.Mephisto was having afternoon tea in the garden, and Faust sat not far away consciously. The commander flipped through a few pages of enemy information, but his eyes fell on him involuntarily.

Mephisto admits that Faust is indeed quite good-looking, but the interesting thing is that he himself has no self-consciousness about his appearance.He admired him with sideways eyes for a while, then waved to the little black snake.

Faust immediately ran over, behaved like a domestic pet.

"When will we officially date?"

After a period of deliberate training, Faust was able to speak clearly.Mephistopheles knew he would ask this, and he drank his lipstick tea, hiding his wicked smile.

"Sister Tallulah just talked to me a while ago. You have great potential, why don't you work hard and become a cadre?"

Faust's eyes lit up.

04.

Mephisto wasn't lying, Tallulah did talk to him.But the conversation went like this:

"Faust has the potential to become a cadre. I don't care about your private life, but this is a matter of the future of the organization. He is determined to follow you now. Don't spoil this good seed."

Mephisto lowered his eyes and his voice was flat.

"Obey, Sister Tallulah."

There are old rules and new rules in the integration movement, and this is also the purpose of Lady Dragon's talk with Mephisto.After a while, Tallulah issued an announcement with a seal - Faust, as a cadre candidate, temporarily served as Mephisto's subordinate before being promoted, and fought with Mephisto to accumulate experience.

Faust was ecstatic.Contrary to everyone's expectations, Mephisto not only showed no dissent, but even took good care of Faust, almost treating him as an unfulfilled lover.

For Faust, the time the two partnered was as beautiful as a dream.The Commander is always there within his reach, putting him first and giving him his back without reservation.

"Please, go chase Rhodes Island."

"Protect yourself first, okay?"

"Faust, you're hurt...no...no!"

Winning or losing is common in military strategists, but during the period when the two were partners, the winning rate of the integrated movement suddenly increased by several percentages.Their combination has also become the myth of the integration movement. When everyone talks about one of them, they will definitely bring the other's name.

W almost thought that Mephisto had changed sex, and Tallulah was quite satisfied with the result.Lady Dragon's promotion announcement arrived as scheduled, Faust was not only officially promoted to the position of cadre, but after the promotion, he still acted together with Commander Mephisto.

The little black snake happily carried the promotion notice and ran into Mephisto's office.The commander was not in his seat, and Faust wanted to wait for him on the reception sofa for a while, but a discordant sound came from a room far away.

Faust went out to check and found that the noise came from Tallulah's office.There seemed to be some dispute in the office, Faust got closer, but heard Mephisto's voice clearly.

"Don't cadres need to lead the team independently?! Sister Talula, why do you want him to follow me?"

The commander-in-chief's voice was extremely annoyed, not the reaction he had imagined.Faust seemed to have a premonition of something, he held his breath and listened quietly outside the door.

"You are a healer with no fighting power. I was going to send a cadre to follow you, but you are so capable that you can talk to anyone. Now finally here is someone who is willing to protect you. For your life, Don't think about how to get rid of him every day."

Tallulah's voice was also extremely displeased, and even raised the temperature of the corridor a bit.

Faust sensed something, including Mephisto's sudden change of temper and the reason he had been so kind to him during his partnership.He lowered his head, and for the first time, strange ripples appeared in front of his eyes.

The door was slammed open, and Mephisto saw the little black snake outside the door at a glance. Faust's face was drooping, his red pupils glistening, and he seemed to have listened to their conversation.What made Mephisto even more dissatisfied was that despite being played and hurt in this way, the man still acted submissively. He looked up at his commander and stretched out his hand to him.

"Mephisto..."

The commander-in-chief was so angry that he slapped his hand open.

"Are you cheap? Don't touch me! It's disgusting!"

Until this time, Faust finally showed a slightly hurt expression.

"What you don't like about me, I'll change it."

"Where - I don't like it!"

"Then I'll change everything."

Mephisto gritted his teeth, his voice cold and cruel.

"It's useless. As long as it's you, I don't like it."

05.

Mephisto blew the cold wind in the middle of the night, and the blood in his brain finally dropped by half.When he returned to the dormitory, he found that Faust was still waiting for him at the door, and the sniper was holding a fur cape, as if he had been waiting since he ran away.

He ignored Faust and tried to knock the oncoming little black snake away.Faust followed up, but remembered something, and stopped behind Mephisto.

"It's okay, if you don't like me, then I won't like you anymore. So When I'm with you, don't feel sick. I'm sorry."

Maybe it's because the night wind is too gentle tonight, and the commander who stands upright is also a little bit softer.He sighed and made a compromise.

"I was wrong today. But it's good that you can think clearly, and you will be my partner in the future, and don't think too much about anything else."

Faust finally showed a little smile, but Mephisto, whose back was turned to him, couldn't see it.

"Yes, Lord Commander."

……

Yeah, he never sees it.

Mephisto opened his blood-smeared eyes and found him lying behind Faust.Faust carried him through the sky full of yellow sand. In the long quicksand, the sniper walked staggeringly, with one foot deep and the other shallow.

Mephisto suddenly woke up and began to struggle desperately:

"Let me go! Faust, let me go! I will die with honor on the field of battle! You bastard! Don't stop me from dying!"

Faust was also injured, and Mephisto's footsteps were distorted and he almost fell into the sand pool beside him.Mephisto was still beating his shoulders, his eyes full of despair.

Ursus united with various city-states and launched the final settlement.The combat power on the opposite side was overwhelming, the integration movement was defeated, Tallulah died in battle, and Mephisto exhausted all his skills in order to save Tallulah, and fell in the enemy's encirclement.

The subordinates scattered like birds and beasts, but it was still the same Faust, braved the dense hail of bullets, and brought Mephisto out.The snipers fought and retreated, but were still outnumbered, and were forced into the deserted quicksand pool by the enemy.

But of what use was Faust to bring him out.His left leg was injured, his ribs were scattered, and his internal organs were severely damaged. He was doomed not to live long.He is now nothing more than a sandbag, pressing on Faust, letting that man's chances of survival flow away like quicksand.

The commander could only move his mouth. He insulted Faust desperately and sharply, asking the other party to drop him, but the silly black snake turned a deaf ear and even held him tighter and tighter.

Mephisto was tired of cursing.He lowered his head, and tears fell down Faust's neck.

"Go away...don't worry about me."

"Faust, let me go."

"please."

"...Please, please."

"Please...leave me...live."

Faust finally made a move, he led Mephisto into a crude cave, and put the commander down.

At this time, only the two of them were left in the rebel organization that had flourished for a while, and the enemy was guarding the edge of the quicksand pool, waiting for them to run out of ammunition and food.Mephisto sat on the thick sand, his injured organs were still failing, his mouth was filled with fishy sweetness, and he couldn't help coughing up a mouthful of blood.

Faust took off his coat and wrapped him up.The commander did not refuse, the lack of blood made him feel chills all over, but as Faust took off his coat, Mephisto saw that Faust's abdomen was also bleeding.

"Don't move!"

Mephisto tore up his clothes to bandage him, and desperately mobilized his final skills to treat Faust.But Faust grabbed his hand, his voice trembling and earnest.

"Mephisto, I lied... I lied to you what I said that night. I can't stop liking you. I still love you until now, and I still want to stay by your side. No matter where you go, I will Follow the past...sorry...sorry."

Mephisto gritted his teeth, letting his tears shrink into a thick film of water. He wanted to cover Faust's wound, but the people in front of him didn't cooperate at all.Faust hoped that he would use the few remaining healing spells on himself, but Mephisto couldn't help him, so he had to cajole and lie.

"I'm fine. You survive, take me out, and we'll date. OK?"

Faust finally fell silent.But when Mephisto breathed a sigh of relief and was about to stop the bleeding and heal his wounds, the sniper kneeling in front of him suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Mephisto.

At the same time, the commander heard gunshots at the entrance of the cave.

Faust supported the rock wall, put his hands on both sides of Mephisto, completely covering Mephisto under his body.At the same time as the gunshot, the sniper's body trembled several times, and then completely fell silent.

The person who had been supporting him all the time rushed in front of him for the first time and protected him for the last time at the cost of his life.Like a shot down bird, Faust fell from mid-air and fell into his arms.

In his gradually expanding red pupils, Mephisto saw himself.Such beautiful blue eyes contained only a cruel and selfish white-haired boy. Faust opened his eyes wide, tears streaming down his face, and the image of the boy was torn apart by the overflowing tear film, becoming broken and distorted.

It was this silent and dull person who followed him for half his life.On the night when the two walked the closest, Faust followed behind him, saying something he didn't like, but still looking at his beloved with uncontrollable tender eyes.

The commander turned his back to him and didn't see it.

Mephisto let out a hoarse scream.He didn't know where the strength came from, pulled out the sharp blade he carried with him, and waved it towards the enemy who rushed to the entrance of the cave.

Faust's coat slipped off him, and the last vestiges of warmth the man had left were gone.A roar came from his chest, mixed with the creaking sound of his ribs, like rusty gears barely turning.

There were a few harsh gunshots again.It was as if he had been thrown into the quicksand outside the cave, and the fine particles rustled in his ears, before completely disappearing.
