The central screen of the game lobby, Nightmare Nova Hall.

Bailiu's small TV was crowded with people, and ordinary players looked up at the small TV screen of Nightmare Nova No. 1 in disbelief:

"Bai Liu is also charging too fast! What is he eating so fast?!"

"Eat the little witch, the child is already stupid, who did he say was the little witch just now?"

"Liu Jiayi."

"What Jiayi?"

"Liu what instrument?"

"Liu Jia what?"

"...You little witch fans, stop fooling yourself and others. Liu Jiayi, Liu Huai's younger sister, was just released by Bai Liu. I think it's pretty close."

"I don't listen, I don't listen! The Forbidden Witch is so cold, so elegant and so mature, there must be a twenty-eight-year-old girl with eyebrows under the black veil!"

"Wake up, the Forbidden Witch is so short, she is almost an eighty-eight-year-old girl."

"...Didn't the character formula book issued by the Goubi King's Guild say that the forbidden witch is an underdeveloped person! Damn it! I always thought that the forbidden witch was a dwarf! So that's what it means to be underdeveloped!"

"Flying to Henggua, the forum posts have exploded, and countless little witch boyfriend fans are lamenting why their wife suddenly turned into a daughter, and they are not ready to be fathers..."

"Heart seems to be dealing with this matter, but the more troublesome thing is in the game, I feel that Liu Huai's situation is not very good, tsk, this year's league support season is okay, such a big melon exploded among the popular newcomers... ..."

"I don't think it's Bai Liu who is not so good. The little witch has always been cruel to non-players. I feel that Bai Liu is going to be cold."

"The old and the new nightmare, the collision of the new star No. 1 - the forum has been posted on Tao..."

—————

Liu Huai knelt down in front of Bai Liu with a plop, his mouth wide open and he lost his voice for a long time, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

There was only a hazy tear in his eyes, dark and gloomy with water, like a sky that couldn't shine.

Liu Huai knelt in front of Bai Liu with his head down, like a puppet whose soul had been emptied, its upper limbs were inadvertently ripped off by a naughty child, leaving only a torso that could not stand upright after the puppet thread was ripped off , Wearily curled up in place.

Tears could no longer flow, Liu Huai opened his eyes empty, his face was covered with criss-cross tear stains, everything seemed far away from him.

The damp ward and the dark village gradually overlapped in front of him, and Liu Jiayi's dirty and well-behaved smiling face was the only scene he could see, which was different from other things.

She ran barefoot in the mountains, sniffing wild flowers and weeds by the weir pond, and then Liu Jiayi turned her head and smiled at Liu Huai's nervous scolding.

Liu Jiayi bent her invisible eyes, turned her face up and called him brother loudly, and flew towards him with open arms, like a bird, a butterfly, or a sun that didn't know it was shining.

What a reckless and naive little girl, she fell into Liu Huai's arms full of scars, and her body was covered with marks from being beaten. Liu Huai choked up and stroked Liu Jiayi's hair, saying that soon, immediately, her brother would be able to pass the exam ! Just keep going for your brother!

And Liu Jiayi leaned on his chest docilely, and said in a very soft voice that Jiayi would persevere for her brother.

Liu Huai walked out of the mountains on a rainy night with Liu Jiayi on his back. From that day on, Liu Huai vowed to prevent her from seeing any darkness in the world, to bring her the brightest future, and to be worthy What she has paid for herself.

They all have the blood of the man they hate the most, and rely on this disgusting blood to connect with each other and depend on each other.

Liu Huai said to Liu Jiayi that my brother and sister have experienced the most terrible things together, so we will never let go of each other's hands no matter what.

Liu Jiayi is his most important person, Liu Huai is willing to live on in this horrible game in order to give her a bright future, is willing to be Zhang Puppet's running dog for her, picks up a dagger to betray his best friend, is willing to she dies.

But she lied to him anyway.

Just like he lied to Liu Jiayi back then, Liu Jiayi also lied to him.

Liu Huai vaguely thought of a dirty face of Liu Jiayi hidden under the bed... Could this be retribution?

Because of what he did to Jiayi, because of his cowardice and inaction, is this also Jiayi's revenge and retribution for him?

"...Do you know why I followed Zhang Puppet and betrayed the fourth brother?" Liu Huai's head seemed to be lowered to the ground, and he said very softly, "...Because Zhang Puppet took it at that time. The news of Jiayi's real life threatened me to join the King's Guild and be his puppet to encircle and suppress the fourth brother..."

There was no light in Liu Huai's eyes: "He promised to give me good treatment and guarantee my safety. I am indeed the best treatment among all his puppets... But I have always been very strange. I have never played against him in the game. Anyone who has ever talked about Jiayi, why did Zhang Puppet know about Jiayi's existence, why did he know that Jiayi was my sister, why did he know so many details about me and Jiayi, as if I took the initiative to tell him Same."

Bai Liu listened quietly and did not speak.

Liu Huai smiled, and tears rolled down his face: "It turns out that Jiayi and him are a pair. Jiayi should have told him these things. Why did Jiayi tell him these things? Bai Liu, what do you mean by Jiayi?" So smart, isn't she, isn't she..."

He finally choked up, and Liu Huai muttered to himself in a daze: "... Did she do it on purpose, she knew what happened from the beginning to the end... She is punishing me... for what I have done, I'm not a good brother..."

"If you ask me." Bai Liu replied calmly, "I think she may think it's best for you. Joining the King's Guild and being a puppet under Zhang Puppet is the safest thing for you in this game. As for Under her suggestion, Zhang Puppet manipulated your betrayal of Mu Sicheng, it is really not safe to follow Mu Sicheng with your ability."

"So if her purpose is to ensure your survival in the game, then I think what she does to you is completely reasonable-let advanced players guide you while helping you exercise your abilities, and choose the best guild and She can control teammates, provide you with shelter, and follow you in time to save you when you enter some relatively high-risk games. Generally speaking, everything she does is planned to protect you."

After Liu Huai entered the game, he was afraid that he would die, so he had to send Liu Jiayi to the orphanage, the little girl curled up in Liu Huai's arms, hugged his neck, and said to him as if worried, brother , Is Jiayi a burden and trouble for you? Are you going to send me away?

He smiled and shook his head, saying no, Jiayi is the future for me, sorry to send you here for the time being, but one day, if my brother is alive, I will definitely take you away.

Give you the brightest future.

Liu Huai lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time, then raised his head dully: "... So from that time on, is it such a troublesome thing for her that I want to live?"

"Ma is not troublesome, but she definitely doesn't need you to save her, and she may even attack other children in order to save you, because as an old player with certain experience, Liu Jiayi must understand this second-level game It's a mechanism." Bai Liu's eyes shifted to Liu Huai's body smoothly, "That's because her own blood is not enough, she needs at least one child's blood to save you."

"Then now comes the question, which child will she find to draw blood?" Bai Liu paused, "And Liu Huai, because I controlled you in the last game, I think her desire to protect you is very important. Maybe she will think that I am a danger to you, in order to prevent me from being more dangerous to you than Mu Sicheng, she will most likely kill my child, that is, Xiao Bailiu."

"I doubt she will draw blood from my child, but fortunately, my child is in church now." Bai Liu said calmly, "Unfortunately, with my action, Xiao Bai Liu will touch them soon Close the place of confinement and take them to escape today-and now although I have reasoned to get this information."

Bai Liu shook the mobile phone in his hand, and frowned in a rare way: "But because this call is one-way, I can't call Xiao Bai Liu to inform Xiao Bai Liu of this information. I must wait for him to call after six o'clock in the morning. I can tell him what I know."

Bai Liu was silent for two seconds: "But I doubt whether he can fight back alive."

"So now we, the defeated generals, are about to face the league players Miao Feichi and Miao Gaozhuan who are about to wake up..." Mu Ke looked at Bai Liu and Liu Huai with a smile that was uglier than crying, "Our children over there And deal with your sister, the Nova No. 1 little witch without knowing anything about it."

"Probably so." Bai Liu said nonchalantly, "It is very likely that we are going to die, Mu Ke."

———————————————

At 5:37 in the morning, the manual classroom behind the orphanage.

The chaos caused by the explosion in the private hospital didn’t end until nearly three o’clock in the morning. After confirming that there were no patrolling teachers near the church, Xiao Bailiu ran from behind along the grove, surrounded the orphanage to look for Mu Ke and the others. The confinement place—generally these teachers are confinement in two places, one is the canteen warehouse, and the other is this two prison-like handicraft classrooms with only one side of the window facing the corridor toilet.

Bai Liu went to the cafeteria to take a look. There were no children there, so it is very likely that Mu Ke and the others were locked up in the handicraft classroom. Then quietly waited behind the door of the women's toilet.

When a teacher came in to go to the toilet, there was a sound of the keys on his waist colliding, Bai Liu came out from behind the door and attacked the teacher without hesitation.

After knocking the teacher unconscious with the candlestick he brought from the church, he took the teacher's key from his waist. He hid at the door of the women's toilet and calmly adjusted his heavy breathing. After making sure that there was no teacher or nurse coming over in the corridor , Bai Liu ran to the two manual classrooms on the opposite side of the corridor with very light movements of his hands and feet.

Bai Liutie stood in front of the door, he looked left and right in the corridor to beware of someone coming, and quickly opened the manual classroom outside.

As soon as the door opened, Mu Ke stared in astonishment at a little Bailiu who sneaked into the classroom, he was so happy that he was about to jump up: "Bailiu! Why are you here!"

"I'm here to take you on a run." Bai Liuyan briefly explained the current situation: "I stepped on the outside, and last night I found that the group of flute-playing children covered in infusion bags came from behind the church statue. They came from the tunnel, and they also took the children out through this tunnel in the church. I saw them in the church last night, and I followed them in the tunnel for a while, and found that the tunnel had a strong smell of disinfectant.”

"Before dawn, the teacher is still sleeping. We can run out of this tunnel. Based on the strong smell of disinfectant in this tunnel, I guess that the direction leading to the tunnel should be the place where the group of children whose blood was drawn came from." ——That is near the private hospital, all the investors in the hospital leave the wards after nine o’clock, we have to run there before nine o’clock to avoid bumping into these investors and being caught.”

"There must be a car near the hospital. We will be safe if we get in the car." Bai Liu briefly explained his plan, "This is the backup plan that my investor and I discussed before. Run out, the gate of the orphanage has been locked, then we can start this backup plan - we can try to follow these children playing the flute and find out how they escaped from the orphanage."

"Last night, I already stepped on the escape channel. After a comprehensive analysis, now I think this plan can be implemented. You guys pack up and prepare for it. We need to move faster."

All the thrilling encounters last night were understated by Bai Liusan. His eyes swept across the classroom, and finally settled on the silent faces of Miao Gaojiang and Mu Ke: "Where are the other two? Miao Feichi What about Liu Jiayi?"

Bai Liu reacted quickly. He looked at Mu Ke with condensed eyes: "What happened? Why were these two people locked up by the teacher in another classroom?"

Mu Ke swallowed his saliva, he stepped forward to explain what happened to Bai Liu, Xiao Bai Liu's eyes darkened.

Bai Liu said that Miao Feichi did have the habit of cannibalism, and when he didn't know if he would be saved today, this idiot Miao Feichi came up with the idea of ​​"eating before death" and put it into action. feel strange.

But Liu Jiayi is not a simple child, she actually followed Miao Feichi without any resistance... Considering some information that Bai Liu gave him before, Liu Jiayi has obvious doubts, but Bai Liu has no extra time to come Deal with these doubts.

His investor, the future him, is still waiting for him to escape with others - Bai Liu needs him to save Liu Jiayi, no matter how suspicious Liu Jiayi is.

After all, Bai Liu gave money to her.

"I'll go over and have a look, you guys stay here." Bai Liu turned around and was about to leave the classroom, but when he opened the door, the doubts in his heart made him pause for a second, he turned his head and glanced at Looking at his Mu Ke, "If I don't come back in time, you will jump out of the window of the women's toilet in ten minutes, and run around from the jungle to the church by yourself."

"The exit from here is directly under the thorny statue of the Reverse Cross, under the baptismal pool. When I finish handling the matter here, I will bring Liu Jiayi and the others to chase you." Bai Liu looked at Miao Gao stiffly, slightly He narrowed his eyes threateningly, "Muke has heart disease, Miao Gaozhuo, you'd better take him along and take care of him, otherwise...you know what you mortgaged to me."

"Okay!" Miao Gaozhuan heard that Bai Liu gave another escape plan, and now his face was a little excited, so he hurriedly agreed.

Hearing Xiao Bailiu's explanation, Mu Ke's heartbeat accelerated uneasily: "Just go to another classroom, what will happen? Miao Feichi can't do anything to you! You can come back and run with us!"

"I don't know what will happen. It's just that my luck has always been bad, and good things don't happen to me." Xiao Bailiu stood by the door and turned to look at Mu Ke. A long, ominous shadow casts out on the ground.

Xiao Bailiu's eyes are very pale, so pale that he can hardly see any emotion. His pale, blood-stained face is gradually dyed by the golden sunlight into a gold-plated surface. There seemed to be an indescribable and inexplicable smile on those tiny fluffs like unripe fruit.

Xiao Bailiu rolled his eyes and chuckled: "But I seemed to be lucky last night, maybe because I changed my name, it seems that I was suddenly blessed by something strange, something good happened to me .”

He pushed open the door, waved casually with his back to Mu Ke, and left the handicraft classroom where he drew two gift paintings for Bai Liu.
