The North China branch is located near the port of Jinmen City. The staff dormitory is only a few hundred meters away from the company. You can see the numbered warehouses and docks around at a glance.

It's night, but it's not late at night,

The employees of the company left work early and had dinner. At present, they basically gather in the dormitory to play cards and blow water. No one on the wharf will come out to experience the so-called sea breeze at night except some people who happen to be on duty.

At this time and this season, when a person comes out and stands on the dock at night to blow the sea breeze, he is either mentally ill... Or too green.

The back door of the staff dormitory,

Liu Xiaojiang skilfully avoided everyone and walked out of the back door like a thief. He stood outside the door and looked at the woods connecting the suburbs in the distance. He vaguely saw a slim figure hidden in it.

Then,

"Hoo... Isn't it a little girl! What are you afraid of? Die!"

Liu Xiaojiang stood in place and took a deep breath of air, as if he had made up his mind. His eyes were firm and walked towards the distant grove. The whole person seemed to have a tragic feeling of returning to death.

……

In the small tree forest behind the dormitory,

Liu Xiaojiang looked for her slim figure in the forest and saw Liu Yanyan standing under a small tree with her back to herself, wearing a pink and black jacket on her upper body, a thin pink skirt on her lower body and a pair of pure white sneakers.

therefore,

He pretended to be calm and walked behind the girl, "Yanyan, when you grow up, I......"

However,

I haven't finished yet,

"Shut up!"

Liu Yanyan stood under the tree. When she heard Liu Xiaojiang's voice, she immediately turned around like a fried kitten. Her little face was full of ferocity and rushed directly towards Liu Xiaojiang.

See this,

Liu Xiaojiang swallowed what he said. He saw the girl's fierce expression rushing towards him. He almost instinctively wanted to use means to attack each other, but he finally responded in time. He stood in place helplessly and let the girl vent her emotions.

After all,

Liu Yanyan is the benefactor who really saved him from the boundless darkness. He once promised to make friends with young and lonely girls. As a result, more than ten years later... Even if he got out of the darkness, he didn't look for girls because of his own abnormality.

He was very sorry that he failed to keep his original promise. He was obviously saved by the girl from the boundless darkness, but he failed to save the young girl from loneliness... He only accepted the girl's love, but did not return it like a friend.

However,

He expected that the girl's emotional vent did not come at all.

Liu Yanyan ran over on tiptoe and put her feet around Liu Xiaojiang's neck. The originally vicious expression on her small face suddenly disappeared, and even said with a slight cry:

"Great... Great, you're okay... I thought that because I didn't have enough level in those years, I wasted the opportunity to let you live. Great... What the book said is right. The reason why the lost spell was lost is that I didn't meet the most suitable spell material."

"Ah?" Liu Xiaojiang suddenly saw Liu Yanyan's appearance. Hearing her inexplicable words, he couldn't help feeling a little confused for a moment.

"Ah, what? Why? Look down on me, don't you?"

Liu Yanyan noticed the expression on Liu Xiaojiang's face and realized that her posture was too close. She immediately loosened her hands tightly holding each other's neck and pretended to be evil:

"Hum, otherwise, why do you think you can survive? It's not that I stole those long lost secret arts and ancient books at home for my little mind. I tried to spell you one by one... I don't want to give up you, a rare guy with consciousness?"

"Ancient books of secret arts?" Liu Xiaojiang checked the inheritance of corpse chasers in Western Hunan in the company. He only knew that they could generally control corpses and others with magic spells. He had no idea what Liu Yanyan was talking about at this time.

"Yes."

Liu Yanyan nodded and said, "the reason why you can survive... Aren't those lost spells working? Although we in Western Hunan can't compare with the dragon tiger mountain you've been to, if we really want to talk about the historical origin, we can trace back to the battle of Zhuolu in ancient times."

"The battle of Zhuolu?" Liu Xiaojiang has no research on history. He will only feel strange to hear these.

"Oh! What do you care so much about?" Liu Yanyan said indifferently. "I've survived anyway. I know a little about those things. I just learned the methods in ancient books and tested them on you... It's good to succeed in making you live."

"... also." Liu Xiaojiang doesn't doubt that Liu Yanyan brought herself back to life, because he was in the boundless darkness and the call of the girl alone gave strength, so he successfully escaped from the nothingness where there was nothing.

"So... What are you now? Can you still be a corpse?"

Liu Yanyan looked at Liu Xiaojiang with complex eyes. She didn't feel that Liu Xiaojiang was similar to the driven body. She even felt that Liu Xiaojiang was no different from her own living man.

Wen Yan,

Liu Xiaojiang looked at the graceful girl in front of him and said in a rare and serious way: "Yanyan, don't tell the second person about my affairs, and... Although I'm still different from you, I don't think I'm still a so-called corpse."

"Anyway..."

"I'm standing in front of you now. I can talk with you like a normal person, try to adapt to the rules and order of the society, and my thoughts and abilities are not much different from yours. Can't I be called a person?"

Liu Yanyan listened to what Liu Xiaojiang said, and her eyes gradually changed from doubt to surprise. Finally, she hesitated and said:

"You... Do you really think so? Although I was surprised to make you live through the spells recorded in the ancient books of esoteric arts, I don't know what kind of spell worked, let alone what kind of situation you can count as now."

"And..."

"Even if I'm willing to help you keep this secret, I'm glad you can adapt to normal life, but... It's also true that your body is abnormal. Stay with me... I can study your body slowly in the future. Don't think about it. I... I just want to help you solve some problems."

"After all, once someone discovers something abnormal about you, I don't know what the company... And even those other outsiders will do to you. In case... In case they don't want to accept your existence, I will be very... I don't want to lose such a rare research material as you."
