"You mean... to die instead of Rosie?" Deng Huailing's usually calm pupils showed shock, "If Rosie was present, he would never agree!"

"I know, so I didn't think about telling him." The corner of the killer's lips raised slightly, his eyes were a little cold, "Actually, when I was in the suite, I thought about the possibility of letting you die.I don't want to sacrifice myself unless it is absolutely necessary. But I also thought that this sacrifice is not the end of the "end-of-song project", but just the beginning. I need Rosie to keep calm while she is sad, and go through the rest soberly.A few moves."

His eyes fell on Deng Huailing, "Since the war started, I found that only when you are by Rosie's side can he fully stabilize his mind and maximize his talents. If you die, he will lose the most important person,It is very likely that something will go wrong. The "End of the Song Plan" is our last hole card, and I will not allow any mistakes in it, so the only person who dies is me."

"I'm not going to let you die. Although you are a complete and rotten person on a moral level, Rosie's wishes are my wishes. He must not want you to die because of the plan he made. I don't want to see him sad.Look." Deng Huailing tightened the strap of the baseball bat storage bag, frowned and stared at the killer, as if as long as the opponent took a step, the sharp edge in the bag would be unsheathed.

"How are you going to stop me, isn't it just right to kill me?" The killer said with a half-smile, "Your skill is indeed the top in the second district, no one can cure you except Rosie, but you have to understand that there are still people in the world, brat."Many problems cannot be solved with a single knife. Someone must sacrifice in the second district, either Rosie, or you and me. As for Piper and Parisa, the weight is still too light to dispel Robert's doubts."

"In my opinion, you are no different from Piper and the others." Deng Huailing objected, "I have read Rosie's memory, and Piper and Simmons also joined the organization in the early days of 'Surge', and followed Rosie to startBoundary expansion until now. You eastern adjudicators have the same weight in his mind, but after Cheng Wen's death, I have never seen Rosie so sad that she couldn't restrain herself."

The killer shook his head: "Not to mention that Cheng Wen has been dead for a long time, what I want to ask you is, do you understand what the meaning of 'first partner' means?When it comes time to echo, no matter how determined a person is, he will feel lonely and confused. If someone came to you at this time and told you that he agrees with your point of view and is willing to cooperate with you to do a great cause, what would you think?"

He turned his eyes to the end of the corridor, as if looking at the scene many years ago through the rain, "It doesn't matter if that person is rotten, you will still tolerate him touching your moral bottom line over and over again, because he made the original loneliness disappear.The most immoral thing Rosie has ever done in her life is to turn a blind eye to my behavior, otherwise how do you think I could survive today and still hold the power of East 5?"

Deng Huailing still felt that something was wrong: "Even if you are qualified to die, we don't have to—"

"You have no other choice, right? If it wasn't me, it would have to be one of Rosie and you. Don't you want to accompany Rosie to the end? You don't want to watch the scene of peace with him, at the TV TowerLooking at the sunset side by side, sitting on the bar terrace sipping a martini and talking about the past? Such a beautiful scenery can only be seen by those who survive.”

The killer is like a poisonous snake on an apple tree, and even though Deng Huailing is a bounty hunter who is good at leading the conversation, he has to remain silent.It is his long-cherished wish to go to the end with Rosie. He has imagined the scenes described by the killer countless times in his dreams. Every detail, every color and smell is real and palpable. For Deng Huailing, thisIt is an irresistible temptation.

He is willing to exchange everything he has for his dreams to come true, even if he has to pay a heavy price, even if he gives up... his bottom line?

Deng Huailing lowered his eyes, and the emotion in his brown eyes was rare confusion.Although the things the killer has done are heinous in his eyes, and he should have died countless times, but to Rosie, the killer is a comrade in arms, a partner who has lived and died together for many years.

He was going to trade the lives of Rosie's valued comrades in arms for their futures, without their knowledge.He clearly knew about this, but he didn't tell Rosie, so he cruelly deprived the other party of the right to choose, is it really good?Rosie will be very disappointed in him if she finds out the truth?

"Don't be in a daze, I didn't come to you just to chat, I came to make a deal with you, as long as you do three things for me, you can live a peaceful life with your lover." The killer interruptedTo grasp his thoughts, he raised three fingers one by one, "First, hide today's incident from Rosie; second, stabilize Rosie's emotions after my death, and ensure the success of the plan."

"Third, go to Dong 5 to visit the doctor for me. If, I mean, if he is not in good condition, tie him to Dong 1 to prevent him from doing stupid things... Although I don't think he will be affectionate enoughThat's it. What do you think of this deal? If you agree, give me a high five, and our deal will be considered complete." The killer smoothed the red hair on his shoulders, and stretched out his hand as an invitation.

Deng Huailing looked at the hand hanging in mid-air, and clenched his palm tightly, the light reflected in his eyes was turbulent.The killer's life or death was on his mind, but in fact he had no choice, just like whether the tram was turned or not, at least one person would be run over to death.He used to boast that he could solve the trolley problem very well and save the people on both sides, but now he was faced with a huge battle situation and suddenly felt powerless.

The killer is right, there are still many things in this world that cannot be solved with just a knife, they are all ants in front of the torrent of steel from the main city.Ants want to create miracles, how could they not pay the price?

Of course, he could also use himself as the price, but this time he was selfish.Deng Huailing suddenly raised his hand and hit the opponent's palm hard. From the very beginning, he was not as selfless as Rosie. He just always regarded his lover's wish as his own, so he worked tirelessly to build Yanling.He is willing to give a lot, but not everything, to people he has never met.

He was reluctant to leave Rosie alone in the world, he wanted to watch the peaceful city of Cesina with Rosie...forever.

"This is a good boy." The killer laughed, shook his hand, let go and patted his shoulder, and walked forward, "I'll go back to the conference room to check the battle situation, and I'll come back when Rosie wakes up."East 5 rehearses the process, strives to die naturally and smoothly, without being suspected by Robert. Deng Huailing, don't forget the three things you promised me."

Deng Huailing turned around and stared at the other person's back with serious thoughts. This might be the last time he saw the killer offline.The figure of the other party could not see Xiao Suo's temperament, and his steps were still brisk, and the gorgeous red hair gradually disappeared in the depths of the corridor, engulfed by shadows.

The killer's world is simple enough, he thought, without remorse for past crimes or fear of imminent death.The other party acted in the eyes of absolute utilitarianism, ruthlessly labeling people as "usable" and "waste". Morality, friendship, love, these concepts respected by normal people have never been blurred in the killer's mind.

The man even included himself in the calculation.Deng Huailing knew very well that the killer was willing to die not because of any deep friendship. The other party just thought that Rosie's plan was feasible, and Rosie and Deng Huailing could provide more value to this plan than themselves, that's all.From the beginning to the end, the killer only has that goal in mind, and only considers the most effective way to achieve the goal.

Will such a pure and vicious person stop for someone?The third thing the killer proposes is to "prevent the doctor from doing stupid things." Perhaps the doctor... can persuade the killer not to continue on his way?Deng Huailing thought in a daze.

The afterglow of artificial sunlight penetrated through the transom, and the orange-red slanted shadow dragged longer and longer on the corridor floor until it disappeared completely.Distraught, Deng Huailing stood under the transom for more than an hour, turned on the communicator to process the reports from the leaders of Yanling's various teams, and monitored the battle situation at the same time.

In fact, these team leaders all have the ability to be on their own. Whether it is intelligence spying, armament maintenance or medical first aid, Yanling has quite mature experience, and he cooperates with the "shu" army in an orderly manner, so he doesn't need to pay attention all the time.

He just didn't know what to do, so he focused on Yanling's affairs.Deng Huailing didn't want to go into the apartment behind him, and he didn't want to face Rosie who woke up. On the one hand, he still couldn't let go of the fact that Rosie made a self-destruct plan without telling him, and worried that his anger might make his lover feel strange;On the other hand, he watched the killer go to death, but he couldn't firmly dissuade it... It seemed to be no different from murder.

Deng Huailing turned off the screen of the communicator, but couldn't calm down for a long time.Anger at Rosie, selfish hatred for his own powerlessness, seemed to ignite his reason with intertwined flames, and he was almost shaken, telling Rosie everything, begging the other party to cancel this plan, and then they thought about it again, must, mustCan think of another way to win—

But reason told him that there was no other way.As long as he tells the truth, "The End of the Song Project" will be canceled immediately, no matter whether it is the killer, Rosie or him, it is impossible for any one of them to die while holding each other in check.

There was the sound of the door being pushed open behind him, Luoxi rubbed his eyes in a daze, and walked out with cotton slippers, his black hair hanging around his shoulders: "Huh? Huailing, you are still here. For some reason, I seemed to have fallen asleep again just now.caught..."

Before Rosie finished speaking, her lips were blocked. Deng Huailing pushed him into the door forcefully, pressed his wrist against the wall and kissed deeply.Rosie froze for a moment, the drowsiness dissipated, he looked into Deng Huailing's eyes suspiciously, the animal-like amber pupils of the other party seemed to be filled with dark fire, it was an extremely blazing, angry and confused flame, like a birdA cub who painfully bluffs knowing that he can't do anything.

Deng Huailing quickly covered his eyes with his hand, preventing him from looking at him any longer.Rosie kissed each other back in the darkness, feeling Deng Huailing's lips violently grazing between his lips for a while, gradually moving down, the hot and slippery kiss passed the neck, and quietly stopped on the collarbone.

Just when Rosie was wondering why the opponent stopped moving, Deng Huailing suddenly bit him hard, leaving a deep tooth mark between the collarbone.Rosie almost cried out in pain, but held it back forcefully, raised her head slightly, her eyelashes were trembling uncontrollably, and cold sweat dripped down her neck.

Deng Huailing still bit him and would not let go, so Rosie had no choice but to bear the pain and raised her hand, gently covering the back of the other's head, and gently stroking along the hair that was a bit tangled.He could vaguely feel the pain and despair hidden in the other person's heart, but he didn't understand the real reason. He only thought that it was because Deng Huailing was worried about his deep sleep again, and said while comforting him:

"It's okay, Huailing, I'm awake. Everything will pass, and I'll make things better..."

He lowered his eyelashes and looked at his little lover with nostalgia. The other party didn't know what kind of plan he had made, and he didn't know that he was leaving.Rosie thought wistfully, how could it be possible for Huailing to leave him like this?He wished that the day of parting would come later, but...their days were running out.
