Chapter 272 – His World
The dark clouds shrouding the top of Cangnan City gradually dispersed, and dappled sunlight spilled down from between the gaps in the clouds and shone on top of the empty earth.
A day ago, there was a city here.
Now, apart from a few lonely tall buildings, with fragmented roads, there was only endless barrenness.
Sitting on top of a three-story building, one could take in the entire scope of Cangnan City, with helpless children and foreign residents staggered in the corners of the city, relying on each other and comforting each other.
Even if a day ago they were all strangers who did not know each other, now, they all have a common name …… survivors.
The once bustling Peace Bridge Head, now only a few old storefronts remain, and the Peace Office sits alone at the head of the bridge, and at the top of it, there is still a silhouette sitting.
Wu Xiangnan sat alone on the roof of the building, looking out into the distance, on the other side of the horizon, a large number of military vehicles raised a sky of smoke and dust, and were rapidly approaching.
Those, were the Night’s Watch logistics teams responsible for receiving survivors and rebuilding the city.
Wu Xiangnan took a deep breath, slowly stood up and took a step towards the downstairs.
In the office, the people of the [Phoenix] squad were sitting at the table, Red Tassel and Wen Qimo sat soulfully on the sofa, their gazes looking into the room from time to time, as if they were waiting for something.
Not long after, a figure clad in a white lab coat came out of the room.
Doctor, how is he? Red Coma stood up and asked anxiously.
The people of the [Phoenix] squad also stood up, and Xia Simeng glanced towards the room, only to see that there was still a faint golden light emanating from inside, and a worried look emerged in her eyes.
Not too good. The doctor shook his head, at the time when his soul suffered great damage, his emotions were too …… extreme, and under that kind of pain, his consciousness automatically rejected the reality of everything that had now happened, and constructed another world in his own mind, hiding himself in it.
Now the pain in his body and soul is gone, but his psyche has not yet emerged from it ……
The doctor glanced into the room and let out a long sigh, even though he had awakened from a physiological point of view, his consciousness had not returned, but was stuck in the constructed mental world, and his body was subconsciously urging the [Mortal Dust Divine Realm] to restore everything around him to the likeness of his mental world.
After listening to the doctor’s words, Wen Ji Mo’s face changed slightly, so ……
Basically, it can be diagnosed that his spirit has gone out of control, and the [Mortal Dust Divine Domain] is hovering on the verge of going out of control, so if any more variables happen to his emotions, it’s very likely that he’ll go berserk.
The doctor opened his mouth with a serious face, according to the Vigilant regulations, the current Lin Qiye has become an extremely unstable and dangerous person, before his spirit recovers, he must be escorted to the fasting house for guarding.
A fasting house? Hearing those three words, Wu Xiangnan frowned and opened his mouth, wasn’t that a prison used to hold guilty supernaturals? Lin Qiye hadn’t committed a crime, so why was he sent to the fasting institute?
”Vice Captain Wu, this is something you don’t know. Kong Wound of the [Phoenix] squad opened his mouth at the right time, the fasting house is not a prison, or …… not exactly a prison, it is just a place that can effectively suppress the Forbidden Ruins, and it is mainly used to house Forbidden Ruins possessors that may have a large scale negative impact on the outside world, and the criminals are just the vast majority of them.
In addition to prisons, its depths also had hospitals that were specifically used to treat mentally deranged Forbidden Ruin possessors, codenamed Sunshine.
That’s right, Lin Qiye is an agent of the Blazing Angel, his [Mortal Dust Divine Domain] is too powerful, once it goes berserk the consequences are unimaginable, only the Lenten Institute can suppress his Divine Ruins and facilitate treatment. The doctor explained at the side, moreover, there was Dr. Li sitting there, he was the top psychiatrist in the whole of Daxia now, he was the best person to treat Lin Qiye.
After hearing these words, Wu Xiangnan’s face finally looked better, he looked at the room where Lin Qiye was and closed his eyes helplessly.
I’ve already reported Lin Qiye’s situation to the higher-ups, and an order to transfer him will be issued soon. The doctor spoke again.
Right at this moment, Hong Ying reddened her eyes and timidly opened her mouth, I …… can go in to see him?
The doctor s eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, he is now unconscious, his mental state is very unstable, it is dangerous to approach him.
I, I will just take a look …… far away. The red tassel said in an almost prayerful tone.
The doctor hesitated for a moment and let out a long sigh, okay …… But don t do anything that might stimulate him, or once the [Mortal Dust Divine Realm] storms out, it will be dangerous.
Red Coma nodded her head repeatedly, she gently walked to the door of Lin Qiye’s room and carefully pushed the door in.
The original wide and bright underground room had disappeared, and in its place was a small, old bedroom.
Just as he walked into the room, a faint aroma of wood hit his face, and Red Tassel’s paws stepped on the age-old wooden floor, making a slight creaking sound.
A hardboard crib, a moldy desk, and on the clean and neat sheets sat a dark-haired teenager, who looked sideways at the small window beside him, the somewhat yellowed curtains swinging gently with the wind.
This room, originally, had no windows.
This is not the firm …… This is Lin Qiye s home.
The red tassel gently walked to Lin Qiye s side, looked at the calm and cloudy eyes, pursed his lips slightly, and sat on the other side of the bed.
Seven nights, seven nights …… Red Coma’s red lips lightly opened, whispering Lin Qiye’s name.
Lin Qiye stared blankly out the window, oblivious.
Old Zhao is dead, the captain is gone, Xiao Nan is gone, and Leng Xuan is gone …… Now are you going to leave this place and leave me too …… Red Coma s eyes clouded with a layer of mist, she looked down at her toes, and her body gently trembled up.
You say, when can we see each other again ah ……
If this city, all this, is just a dream …… then when the dream wakes up, will everyone come back?
We have agreed that the next time we cross the New Year, we still have to all get drunk again …… You guys, you won t lie, right?
The red tassel turned her head to look at Lin Qiye on the bedside, and the tears crossed her cheeks and dripped onto the sheets underneath her, disappearing without a trace.
Lin Qiye looked out the window, silent like a statue.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in from outside, and out of nowhere, a branch of green flowers blew in, brushing across his cheeks and landing in front of Hong Ying.
Red Coma looked at the scene in a daze, reached out his hand, and picked up the flower from the bed.
It was a green flower on the other side of the river.
In a trance, Red Coma looked like she remembered something, and she looked up at Lin Qiye, a smile surfacing on her tear-stained face.
No matter what the future becomes, I will wait for you guys ……
