Chapter 68 Escape (IV)

"A few days ago, a man found me and gave me these..." Dilla held on to the wall, panting heavily, and sat down slowly.

The high-speed fighting with all his strength left him, who was already weak, almost exhausted.

"Sianwistan and...these medicines?"

"CPH4..." Dilla said word by word, with a weak but solemn expression, as if calling out the terrifying real name of the abyss demon.

"How could you possibly have this kind of medicine?"

Boros squatted on the ground, the revolver in his hand trembling slightly, and pressed it hard against the man's chin.

His eyes were as sharp as two sharp blades, as if he was going to nail Dila to the wall with anger.

"Sure enough, my guess was correct...Did they distribute this drug to you, calling it 'medical benefit'?"

Dilla spoke very slowly, and the sound of life gradually passing by lingered in her ears and was clearly audible.

But those slow words were like poisonous steel needles, insidiously piercing Boros's heart.

"Why?"

"what why?"

"Why would he rather die than give up resistance?"

"You should tell me the answer, Xi Tao. I still know too little about human beings."

Yahweh stared at the slowly dimming screen, caressed the girl's silver hair, and whispered in her ear.

"..." Xida didn't say anything, just turned his head, grabbed Yahweh's collar, and gently wiped away his tears.

"I don't know... Anyway, I'm afraid of death, and I'm getting more and more afraid of death." The girl lay in his arms and continued talking dully.

"Ha..." In the darkness after the movie ended, Yahweh chuckled, resting his chin on her forehead, and rubbed it back and forth a few times, enjoying the sweet tenderness of the moment together.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." He murmured softly and hugged Xi Da tightly, who was curled up into a ball.

"We need to make another commitment based on the previous one."

"Why?" Yahweh followed her intention and asked in a low voice.

"We were strangers before, but not anymore."

"What promise?"

Yahweh threw away the trash, held Xi's warm hand, and walked slowly along with the sparse crowd, leaving the screening room after the show.

After leaving the cinema, the cold wind blowing against her face made Xi Da shiver involuntarily, and she hurriedly hid in the arms of Yahweh.

"I haven't thought about it yet." She stood on tiptoes and sucked hard on the man's neck, leaving a deep blood red streak.

"Why do you want to kiss me here?" Yahweh was a little strange. He didn't feel any pain, just a little itchy.

"Looking more and more like a human being..." Xi Da smiled nonchalantly, turned around and pulled him, walking towards home.

"I don't like promises. I don't like promises themselves, nor do I like making promises to others." The sound of rain hit his increasingly cold body, and the blood flowed until it dried up, leaving an indelible color on the ground. .

Boros gently smoothed Dilla's eyes that could no longer be closed, and spoke softly, as if he was afraid of accidentally waking up the sleeping man.

"Thank you for your last gift." The man, who was as strong as an iron tower, slowly lowered his high head, and a foreign fire was ignited in his cold heart made of steel.

The old firewood is burned out, but a new fire is being passed down.

"he died?"

At some point, Rowena came to Boros's side silently.

"He's dead." The man was silent for a few seconds before confirming.

"I have no doubt about the result, I'm just a little curious about the process." Rowena chuckled, watching Boros silently bend down and use fire to ignite the man's completely cold body.

"What's there to be curious about? Is Bit okay?" Boros waited quietly for Dilla's body to be swallowed by the fiery snake, and then slowly answered Rowena's question.

"I can't die...I'm quite worried about you now, boss."

"Where did it start?" He asked softly, his words were unclear, but the two people present knew it well.

"Promise... maybe a little earlier."

"..." Boros fell into silence again, which lasted far longer than the previous times combined.

He was hesitating whether to drag his teammates into the bottomless whirlpool.

The body of the man who dragged him into the abyss was now nothing but warm embers.

"I can't tell you, Rowena. It's not that I don't want to, I just can't."

"Why?" Rowena raised his eyebrows in surprise, opened his mouth, hesitated for a few seconds, and couldn't help but ask.

"You still have hope to live, Rowena, you have Bit, and Melissa... Only crazy people who truly have nothing are qualified to know all the secrets of tonight."

"You..." Rowena gritted his back teeth hard, and the anger in his heart seemed to break through the raging storm.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid." Boros spoke carefully, making his second promise tonight.

"Whatever you want!" Rowena glared at Boros fiercely, threw the emergency medicine he had been carrying in his pocket at the man's face, turned around and left without looking back.

Boros stood there, silently staring at the red-haired woman's retreating back, letting the manic rain erode him from head to toe.

After a while, he sighed.

He used a bag to clean up the remaining embers of Dila and carefully put them in the pocket near his chest. He took heavy steps and left this winding and narrow alley.

Walk to the street and look around. In the night sky, bright neon lights are decorated by the grand mist and rain into clusters of psychedelic flowers.

Only then did he realize that he had returned to the world from hell.

The heart that had been hanging slowly dropped, and Boros took a deep breath, greedily devouring the breath of this world.

It's late at night.

In this noisy night with the sound of rain, there were still scattered pedestrians coming and going on the streets.

There are corporate employees who walk in a hurry, and there are junkies who are light-footed and wobbly.

There are slow-moving old people, and there are also children jumping up and down with their parents.

Single people are busy running around, while couples are strolling leisurely.

Umbrellas one after another obscured their expressions, and they could only hear the joyful laughter of some, and the long sighs of others in low voices.

Boros dislikes Night City and hates this man-eating city from the bottom of his heart.

There are too many innocent and guilty people drowned here, sinking into the bottomless abyss.

But at this moment, even he couldn't help but feel sincerely that this demon had an indescribable beauty.

Like poisonous flowers blooming with deadly beauty.

"We've finished watching the movie, what are we going to eat later?"

Boros walked slowly along the street in the rain, trying to imitate a normal person. He took off his windbreaker and put it on his head to cover his body.

Vaguely, he heard a couple whispering.

"It's all up to you." The blue-eyed man chuckled, sharing the same umbrella with the silver-haired girl, and gradually moved away from the line of sight he wanted to explore.

Boros shook his head and laughed, feeling that he was too nervous and overthinking, so he turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
