Chapter 235: Love takes you back in time

Zhuo Ya died under the hands of a reformed man he had bred.

No one knows why she made the chips from the minds of the lovers she later killed and the children she killed herself, perhaps it was a kind of eerie remembrance, or perhaps she envisioned that if the Mandela universe ever became a reality, she would bring them all back so that she would feel like she had washed the blood from her hands, and be able to live in peace and quiet with little Ava. She will then feel that she has washed the blood from her hands, so that she can live in peace and quiet with little Ava.

He Yu They had no time to think, they had to give their full attention to the destruction of the program in the main control room.

"Command is 30 percent complete, hold on a little longer."

Having slaughtered their creators, the reformers lost their strong desire for revenge, and one by one they became calm, wandering woodenly through the smoke-filled ruins. The half-finished products summoned from the basement were no match for them, and had long since fallen to the ground in a heap.

Forty percent, 50 percent ......

Time became a vague concept, and the only thing that flashed in front of the eyes of the three men were the values that were still being calculated at a rapid pace.

In this solemn atmosphere, the sun gradually tilted to the west, and the light and heat of the flame became more and more dim.

60%, 70% ......

The sun is bloodstained, the trees are in a state of depression, and the night is full of swords and shadows, waiting for the command to be fulfilled, and then it will come out of the sky.

Eighty percent ......

On the ocean battleship approaching Mandela Island, Wei Er stood next to the Commander with his hands behind his waist, looking gravely at the image in front of him in the ship's monitoring room.

The giant combat display echoed the scene and slowly crawled with a blood-red counting grid, the number approaching one hundred percent.

And the time is not far from the scheduled six o'clock.

"Attention all departments." The commander-in-chief picked up his black pager, launching instructions to the whole channel while staring at the three people in the screen with sweaty foreheads, "Tonight's attack will be carried out according to the plan, all departments listen to my command and get ready to take their positions. Repeat it again-"

The bright red display climbed ever higher as the last rays of the sun's afterglow were buried in the ocean tide ......

"Drip-drip-drip!"

Like the moment when the kilometer sprint hit the line, a mountainous applause came from the entire room of the main control room after a short silence! The destruction commands of the Radical Speed Cold Light were all entered successfully, and the completion degree on the big screen stayed at one hundred percent!

"It worked!"

Amidst the arms of his comrades, the commander-in-chief shouted, "The advance party members immediately set out to receive the three companions in front of them! Other formations - prepare to launch the attack!!!"

.

The device that was stoking the cold light was finally destroyed.

The billions of values at the end are like a Big Bang, the columns fall apart, the stars fall away, and Ava's phantom silently disappears in front of her mother, turning into a bit of fluorescent light.

Inside the master control room, there was a sudden deathly silence.

As if in disbelief, Chen Man whispered, "Is it over? ......"

Xie Qingcheng : "It's over."

He Yu, however, did not speak; surprisingly, he walked up to Zhuo Ya, looked at her open-eyed corpse for a long time, and then suddenly lowered himself, raised his hand and stroked it across her dead eyes, covering her eyelids.

Then he got up and, without a word, walked out of the general control room, which had lost its power.

Their last mission was over, and next, all they had to do was wait for the relay to come chugging in and send them back to the ship to await the outcome of the Great War. After exhausting themselves for so long, it was somehow surreal to suddenly have all their suffering come to an end.

He Yu walked outside to the still smoky air and exhaled slowly, by now it was all but dark, but the sound of artillery fire and the light of explosions was already coming from the distant coastline. He knew that the landing of the headquarters had already begun, and that it was the battle of the succeeding relievers, which no longer had anything to do with them ......

He took another deep breath, closed his eyes, and looked sideways behind him.

Xie Qingcheng helped Chen Man to come out, Chen Man's foot was hit by shrapnel, blood flowed all over the place, his description was horrible, he could not walk fast by himself, Xie Qingcheng could not leave him there.

Although He Yu knew that Xie Qingcheng was no longer related to Chen Man, his eyes were still slightly dark.

He thought of the time he had ended up hurting his leg during the shipwreck three years ago, when there was no one to assist him, and he had crashed into the sea in the air currents, and the salty seawater had rushed into his wound all at once, so that even someone with dulled senses such as himself had fainted from the pain all at once.

When he woke up, he had already lost his original legs and feet, and he was lying in Duan Wen's lab, with the illusion that his old body was still there at the severed limb, but he moved around and eventually saw only the cold prosthetic foot-even if it was more emulated and harder to be seen, it was still fake.

He was murmuring Xie Qingcheng's name.

Xie Qingcheng was in the faraway United States, and at that time, He Yu was accompanied by Xie Lishen, who had similar eyes to his.

He just had that three years.

So in this moment he's still jealous of Chen Man, still feels that Chen Man is a threat to himself, there's no way around it, he's so wounded and scared that he whimpers at the sight of a stick and instinctively fights off resistance.

He's too insecure.

He Yu averted his gaze as he tried his best to adjust his emotions and divert his attention to the God of wind bracelet, "Pick up HQ, mission accomplished."

"......"

He was stunned--

"Why no reaction."

"Pick up HQ, mission accomplished." He said again.

"......" still doesn't respond.

He realized that something was wrong, and immediately mobilized the values, entered a few codes, and found that the network here was actually interrupted.

Xie Qingcheng: "What happened?"

He Yu: "The network suddenly went down."

Chen Man said, "This moment may be because all of a sudden there are too many people pouring into the frontline fighting, the command is overwhelmed ......"

He Yu interrupted him, "The carrying capacity is all calculated, it's impossible."

He said sweeping the vandalized master control room, "The source of the signal here could be related to the Radical Chill master control room, it should be the reason we vandalized it, but we can't be sure."

After a pause, He Yu took out his cell phone and looked at the signal, "The cell phone also has a zero-gig signal."

As a result, the three of them had suddenly lost contact with the headquarters and did not know where to join them. All three of them were now injured, especially Chen Man, who could not move his legs much, so it was too dangerous to act rashly.

The three of them finally decided to go back to the main control room to hide first, the headquarters found that they could not be contacted, there is a high probability that they will send people to look for them in the vicinity of the control room, judging from the distance of the landing beach from here, it should not take too much time.

As expected, after they had waited for about fifteen minutes or so, a blinding bright light suddenly appeared in the dark bushes.

"Rumble--"

The glow was getting closer and brighter.

They got a good look at the visitor.

It was an armored jeep. There were two men sitting in the car, one was the driver, who had little presence, while the one sitting on the passenger side was a man about forty years old wearing a Dream Breaker police uniform, with deep brow arches and a languid temperament. Xie Qingcheng's heart thumped the moment he saw that man, privately a certain string of memory was plucked. He felt like he had seen this man somewhere.

The Jeep pulled up in front of them, and the officer signaled the driver to pull the brake while he stepped out of the car, his leather boots vibrating a thin cloud of dust and smoke on the ground.

Xie Qingcheng's sense of familiarity intensified when the man leaned against the car door and lazily lit a Marlboro.

"It's been a long time, I'm here to take you back Dreambreaker."

However, who knew that after the officer finished this sentence, he exhaled a smoke ring, raised his eyes, and his gaze paused for a moment on each of the three faces, but then spoke a sentence that no one had expected, "Which two of you will get in the car with me first?"

Chen Man was stunned, "Get in the car first? What do you mean?"

"The big battle has started, the signal here is not good, your God of wind system connection is not smooth, right?" The man said lightly, "Although the Riptide Chill has been destroyed, there is still a possibility that the data will be automatically repaired within half an hour, and because of the data protection system, the only ones who can intervene are those who have already used this device before. In other words, one of the three of you must stay here and deal with the winding down of the Radical Speed Chill."

"!!!"

Ignoring their stunned expressions, the officer continued, "This is an order from the commander-in-chief."

None of the three expected such a thing to happen, Chen Man said, "Why didn't the command communicate with us in advance about this?!"

"A temporary problem was discovered." The man was succinct, "You guys found it when you were entering your commands. It was not convenient to talk to you guys at that time, otherwise it would be easy to mess up your rhythm. Because this discovery is too late, all arrangements and deployments have no way to start over ...... We don't have much time, decide, which one stays?"

Battles rumbled in the distance and airplanes swept overhead.

Anyone who stays in position in such a situation knows that they are risking death. No one wants to be left behind by their teammates just after finishing the organization's mission ......

He Yu and Chen Man involuntarily glanced at each other.

Eyes collided, the two suddenly heart like a mirror, actually seems to be able to see each other's heart clearly.

There was a dark place inside He Yu's heart that was clamoring uncontrollably, looking forward to Chen Man's death. He thought that if Chen Man died, Xie Qingcheng would no longer have such a person by his side, and from now on, there would be no more threats.

There is a mean place in everyone's heart, and Chen Man had similar thoughts in his mind.

And this scenario, after all, suddenly evoked a memory for both of them, back then - when both of them were still very young and neither of them had gotten Xie Qingcheng - they were faced with the same decision in the fire in the basement of Chi-Lung Entertainment.

It was He Yu who stayed behind and returned to Xie Qingcheng, who then kissed He Yu for the first time. ......

He Yu's heart fluttered.

His mind slowly changed at that very thought ......

He is actually not generous at all, he just thought if he can't get Xie Qingcheng, then it is better for no one to touch his roses, and it is better for Xie Qingcheng to keep remembering him, and he can't forget him until he dies.

But perhaps after experiencing the pain of not being able to forget, and then looking at Xie Qingcheng's blind eyes and white hair, he thought he could be ruthless heart, but for no reason became so weak.

He suddenly felt ridiculous at this moment - it turned out that at the end of the day, he was still most afraid that he would disappoint Xie Qingcheng.

He is most afraid of disappointing Xie Qingcheng, most afraid of seeing Xie Qingcheng upset.

He is most afraid that Xie Qingcheng hates him in his heart, and he is most afraid that Xie Qingcheng is by his side, but can not forget another person.

He Yu slowly turned back, his gaze sweeping over Xie Qingcheng's face.

The original ......

Even if time had changed and things were different, he would still make the same choices as he did back then when faced with the same thing.

Nothing has changed ......

None of it has changed at all.

In the blink of an eye, He Yu suddenly raised his hand, and the sweetness of the blood in his palm suddenly dispersed in the direction of Xie Qingcheng and Chen Man along with the night wind. With his strongest blood compulsion, he ordered in a single word, "Get in!"

"!!!"

It was like being strangled by an invisible giant hand, barely able to make a sound, and like a butterfly that had fallen into a spider's web, bound and unable to move, He Yu's power wasn't what it used to be, and he wasn't lying to them, if he wanted to, he was now able to make any sane person obediently submit to his feet.

Chen Man was caught off guard, his eyes suddenly went blank, and he walked to the jeep as if he were a marionette.

Xie Qingcheng also seemed to bear the weight of a thousand pounds, and that weight pressed down on his soul, and his consciousness was sinking rapidly ...... sinking ......

He Yu's spiritual Ai Bola ability is too powerful, mountain-like suppression of the manipulated person's mind, so that people act in accordance with his orders, and now even Xie Qingcheng is no longer a match for him, and can not easily break free ......

The officer was leaning against the jeep, watching the choice between them without much expression.

The door opened and Chen Man got in, walking corpse style, stumbling the last few steps because of his badly injured leg, and almost as he was about to fall to the ground, the officer helped him and escorted him to the car. Chen Man sat down stiffly.

Xie Qingcheng is next.

Xie Qingcheng held on to his weakened body, trying to resist He Yu's order, but it was like catkins resisting the winds and waves of a tsunami, it was simply impossible to do so. Xie Qingcheng's eyes also lost focus, it was as if he had sunk into the deep sea, his five senses were blocked, and in front of his eyes was a dark and eternal night.

He Yu watched as he walked past him, on the wrong side of his shoulder.

And then - at the last minute.

A great unwillingness suddenly welled up within him, and that unwillingness quickly spread throughout his body like a highly venomous snake's fluid, prompting him to suddenly call out to this person, "Xie Qingcheng!"

"......" Xie Qingcheng stopped in his tracks.

He Yu's chest rose and fell violently as he looked at his side face, which was expressionless, but perhaps because of the hint of gray hair at his temples, it looked like it was so sad.

"You're not allowed to ......" He Yu's voice trembled, "You're not allowed to ......"

The knots in his throat rolled.

The heart boils like fire.

A word that doesn't go up and down, an order that sticks in the throat.

--Whatever you do, don't be with Chen Man, and whatever you do, don't forget me!

Say it ......

Just say it, and the purpose will be accomplished, and death will be in peace.

Say it ...... say it ...... say it!!!!

Why can't you just say it?

Why just ......

As He Yu stared dead at Xie Qingcheng's side face, he suddenly remembered the countless looks that Xie Qingcheng had displayed in front of him - from the first time he met him to the time he said goodbye, in fact, except for the time he danced at the tavern, there wasn't a single moment when Xie Qingcheng was completely relaxed.

He had known him for almost twenty years, and the man ...... had actually smiled only that one night, when he had really spread his face in the night, and smiled loosely down.

That order, like solidified cement, couldn't flow out of his throat anyway.

He looked at him, watched him.

Look at Xie Qingcheng as a child, as a teenager, as every second of every day when you were in love with him and when you weren't ......

These three years of stoic closure, perverted treatment, has almost eliminated He Yu belongs to his own strong emotions, he has also become calm, cold, not surprised by changes, but this moment, the dam that blocked his heart as if it was suddenly broken, a hot emotion burst out, his throat is raw, his eyes steep red.

Almost uncontrollably, the command that came out of his mouth became, "You are not allowed to remember me."

"Xie Qingcheng ...... you go, if something happens to me, you are not allowed to remember me!" With a hoarse voice, he shouted his last words at his back, shouting his hardest, blood-compelled words that poured all of his strength, "Xie Qingcheng -- you're not allowed to remember me!!!"

The hoarse voice echoed through the forest with pathos and release.

I loved you when I was a teenager.

I was a teenager when I left you.

I was the same teenager when I finally sent you away.

I want you to remember me because I love you.

I hope you never remember me because I love you dearly.

Xie Qingcheng slowly took a step forward, He Yu's order echoing in his ears, echoing He Yu's voice ......

He Yu's voice ......

As if a drop of water fell into an ancient well, there were trembling ripples in the pupils of the wave-less eyes.

The power of the blood parasites was so strong, but at this moment, Xie Qingcheng's soul seemed to hear He Yu weeping behind him, calling him over and over again. That child in the endless summer flowers, that young man who wailed in solitude in the cabin of the sea battle, that young man who had no joy and no sadness when he was reunited, all at this moment, from countless fragments converged into a figure.

He saw He Yu deep in the sea, slowly sinking, opening his hand to him and calling his name helplessly.

He said Dr. Xie ...... Xie Qingcheng ......

You save me ...... I'm hurting ......

You save me ......

"He Yu!!!" A powerful force was born at this moment, the power of the human heart was even more brazen than any kind of medicinal compulsion in the world, and that power was like running fire like bursting water, cutting through the waves and breaking through the clamp of the blood compulsion, and even carrying Xie Qingcheng's will to tread the waves and return!

Xie Qingcheng jolted awake!

He Yu and the man in the police uniform both froze - if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, none of them would have believed that such a withered to the point of precariousness could have such great power, that it had broken free from the power of He Yu's blood compulsion three years later!

Xie Qingcheng slammed the car door with a bang, and with bloodshot eyes, he ran to He Yu with great strides.

That aggressive look actually made He Yu feel as flustered as he did when he faced Dr. Xie as a teenager.

"I told you ......" Xie Qingcheng's voice carried a more than noticeable hint of a tremor and what sounded like a choked sob, "I told you that three fucking years ago!"

He Yu actually didn't dare to look at him, "What, what?"

Xie Qingcheng grabbed him by the lapel, "Forget your mom! Forget your mom!

If it wasn't in front of the others, he would have almost slapped him across the face just as he did back then - "You use blood compulsion on me again." Xie Qingcheng red-eyed and gritted his teeth word by word, "I'll fucking, let you have it!"

He Yu choked in place unable to speak, he almost saw something in Xie Qingcheng's eyes that he did not dare to confirm, he ......

He was hugged by Xie Qingcheng.

So heavy.

So hard.

Xie Qingcheng scolded him fiercely, but He Yu felt warm tears dripping down the side of his neck.

"Will you stop making me go back three years He Yu ...... I don't want to go back to the sea."

"You know what I was trying to tell you last night ......" Xie Qingcheng's voice was hoarse and indistinguishable by the end, "You know. Just like I fucking know it too."

Do I really have to say I love you?

Missing that appointment, do you really not know each other's hearts ......

I love you in silence.

Love you in times of guilt, love you in the scorn of the common man, love you in the long wait.

I love you in regret, I love you in apprehension, I love you in not daring to tell easily, I love you in tear stains.

I love you for being wherever you are, for never going away, for being in a hug in the middle of a war.

I love you more than an apology, more than waiting for you for a long time, more than peace.

"He Yu".

"Xie Qingcheng."

I love you after every move, it can't be hidden, slowly you will understand.

There are people in the world who say I love you a thousand times, and that's not true.

There are people in the world who don't say I love you over and over again, but it's true.

It's okay if you don't show up for your appointment, do you feel it ...... do you feel it ......!

He Yu was embraced tightly by Xie Qingcheng, his eyes were wide open, he understood what Xie Qingcheng meant, he was stunned, and finally raised his hand tremblingly, his arm was on the man who had broken free from his final stage of blood compulsion by the strength of his flesh and blood because he wanted to stay by his side.

This man who walks to his side even against the wind.

"Shea ......"

Three years ago, he wasn't able to put his hands on him during the naval battle.

Three years later, he hugged the one who was going to be alone in danger.

The figure of the young man and the figure of the youth overlapped in this moment, and He Yu tightly hugged Xie Qingcheng back, hot tears finally flowing down his face.

He mumbled, "You hold me ......"

"How touching. But are you planning to stay both."

That's when the officer who had been watching coldly finally spoke up.

"I won't be able to deliver like this. It's better to discuss it and go with me on another one."

His gaze fell to He Yu, "It's not necessarily in great danger really, the chaser will be here in half an hour. This kind of handling equipment procedural things, I think it's still young man you ......"

Xie Qingcheng took a breather and calmed down He Yu, who still hadn't gotten his emotions under control : "It's okay, I'm here."

He patted He Yu's back and let go of the other man, and when he was done taking care of his personal business, he turned back to the officer and interrupted him by not moving to get in front of him, "I finally remembered who you are."

"......"

"It's been twenty years, none of us have seen you, and we all thought that you had sacrificed yourself like Chen Lisheng. Have you been working undercover in the dark line all this time, and just came out to meet us today?"

He turned, his still slightly reddened eyes looking up at the officer, and, word for word, gave his name--the
