Chapter 128 Don't you want me to accompany you anymore?
Having clarified everything, the two of them now have to separate.
From an emotional perspective, they are certainly not happy about it.
However, from Director Liu's perspective, if they stay here too long, there's no guarantee he won't suddenly turn around and make a surprise return.
It would be somewhat awkward to send them both back to their tents later.
I am well aware of this.
So Qi Yu leaned over and kissed Bai Luochuan's forehead again, then took his hand and led him to wash up and get ready.
Twenty minutes later.
Bai Luochuan, having washed himself clean, had already returned to his tent.
He's been staying at Qi Yu's house recently. He hasn't had much time alone, so he hasn't been playing games much.
Now that he was suddenly all alone again, Bai Luochuan instinctively took out his phone almost the moment he entered the tent, his finger hovering over the game app icon.
However, reason prevailed first.
He didn't order it.
Staring blankly at his own actions, Bai Luochuan remained silent for a moment before revealing a self-deprecating smile.
It was also said that Qi Yu suffers from separation anxiety.
The one who should be the most anxious is probably himself...
But you can't blame him.
As soon as I'm alone and quiet, all the frustrations and anxieties from work come rushing to my mind.
The weight of bloodshed and loss of life can never be easily erased.
I held my phone quietly for a while.
Bai Luochuan ultimately did not open the game.
Instead, he walked to the makeshift cot and picked up the little fox doll he had placed on it.
The chubby little fox is especially cute.
His smiling, squinting eyes also have a distinct Qi Yu flavor.
Bai Luochuan buried his head in the little fox's round belly, and for some reason, the scene of when he first downloaded this game came to mind.
At that time, it was the time when a job he had been involved in had just ended.
It's not the usual kind of work, like raiding a criminal den or fighting against a private armed group.
It was a war in the true sense of the word.
They were indeed aiding the "righteous" defenders. But the numerous, fanatical rebels, perhaps knowing their fate was sealed, were even more fanatical than the defenders on this side.
They are even less likely to value their own lives.
Bai Luochuan, in his early twenties, lived in that environment for a full year.
There have been long-range sniping attacks.
There were also close-quarters combat incidents.
The most memorable incident for him was when he was separated from his teammates under artillery fire. He was left with only a military dagger, but fortunately, the dozen or so enemy soldiers around him were in similar condition.
Then comes pure melee combat.
He killed the dozen or so people with the dagger in his hand.
The dagger was used to the point that its blade became dull.
When dealing with the last enemy soldier, the dagger got stuck in his neck, embedded in the bone, severing a blood vessel, but it couldn't be pulled out, nor could it be stabbed any deeper.
The other side has lost the ability to resist.
His pupils, almost dilated, were fixed on Bai Luochuan's direction.
When he opened his mouth, blood gushed out of his throat.
Bai Luochuan understood.
What he meant was: I don't want to die.
That was a young man about the same age as him.
Before the childishness on his face had faded, he was forced to face the end of his life on the battlefield.
It's not just him.
The enemies I just killed, or rather, many of the enemies I've faced recently, are all the same age and in the same condition.
When the enemy's breathing stopped.
Bai Luochuan was not in a hurry to leave.
He lay there in a pool of blood, his mind replaying the young man's final, desperate gaze, like a nightmare he couldn't shake off.
That might have been the last drop of water that caused the dam to burst.
Lying in the blood, Bai Luochuan's mind was filled with images of everyone he had killed since going to the battlefield.
The way they begged for mercy.
Their desperate look.
The replaying of scenes pushed his already stretched nerves to the brink of collapse.
At that time, Bai Luochuan felt that after leaving the battlefield, given his mental state, even if he were given a chance to live a good life, he probably wouldn't be able to survive.
Mechanical survival tactics on the battlefield.
After leaving the battlefield, he wanted to die.
The pain and despair of humanity pushed Bai Luochuan to the edge of a precipice.
And it was at that moment that he saw the game advertisement.
I didn't have high hopes; I just felt that in his despairing life, it could be a source of support for me.
even if...
It's a fleeting support.
At least at that moment, Bai Luochuan genuinely wanted to find some motivation to keep living.
Then he saw Qi Yu in the game.
No matter what he said to Qi Yu, Qi Yu would stand firmly by his side, telling him it was okay, to calm down, and that things would get better in the future.
Bai Luochuan emerged from despair.
He became a game addict.
Thinking of this, Bai Luochuan took a deep breath.
The phone I was clutching vibrated.
This is a new message:
[Qi Yu: Brother, aren't I allowed to sleep with you tonight?]
The fox in the background has a pitiful expression.
They look so pitiful.
