Chapter 255 Su Weiyu's Story
“Knock, knock, knock.”
There was a knock on the door. Xia Shou was sitting at the desk. Alice had already opened the door. Su Weiyu nimbly flashed in with a side step. She pointed her right hand at Xia Shou with a pistol gesture and said happily: "Good morning!"
"Good morning." Seeing Su Weiyu, Xia Shou's mood suddenly improved a lot.
"I brought fried dough sticks and tofu pudding from home, and soy milk~ a simple breakfast." Su Weiyu put the bag on Xia Shou's desk, "Why do you look so worried? Now except for that troublesome delusion, it seems that there is nothing to worry about. Isn't the curse of aging also suppressed by Xiaoyue's blood?"
"Weiyu, I have a question."
"What's the question?"
"Why do you only carry so many forbidden objects? With your physique, you can obviously carry more forbidden objects. The more forbidden objects you carry, the better your life safety will be. The more sufficient, but when I met you in the Blood Demon House, you only brought Sparrow's compass and Tongziqie. Don't you bring some defensive forbidden items? "
"This... how to say it, although the Control Bureau has a lot of forbidden items, there is basically no idle practical ones. Defensive forbidden items are used 24 hours a day. Although I can forcibly take the forbidden items off the user's body and use them myself, it's not good, right?" Su Weiyu moved a chair, with the back of the chair facing forward, spread her legs and sat on it, resting her hands on the back of the chair, and said thoughtfully.
I can only say that it is fortunate that it is still spring and Su Weiyu is wearing jeans, otherwise it is really easy to expose herself in this sitting position.
But no one will see if she is exposed. Thinking of this, Xia Shou was inexplicably happy.
"Because you think this will cause others to get hurt?" Xia Shou asked.
"Well, there is a reason for this. In fact, I didn't just take this little equipment at the beginning. At the beginning, no matter where I was, I had to be fully armed. Even if I never caused any abnormalities and tried my best to avoid being involved in any abnormal events, I would still carry two panaceas with me, carry Tongziqier on my back, and carry a substitute straw doll.
These things are standard. As long as they are with me, I will be fine even if I am hit by a truck on the road.
If I encounter heatstroke or any emergency, I can recover by taking a panacea.
As for encountering dangerous urban wild dogs and other animals, Tongziqier can easily deal with them.
Anyway, in daily life, it is completely enough to carry one or two forbidden items. It is more than enough without causing any weirdness."
Su Weiyu rested her chin on the back of her hand, her expression was serious, even a little solemn.
Then, she took a deep breath, as if she was ready to confess a crime and start a deep repentance of sin.
"But, when you live alone for a long time, it's easy to care about other people, even strangers. As long as there is a little bit of connection, I will care about them.
Once, I knew that a first-level employee went on a mission without a defensive seal because of an emergency, and when he came back, he turned into a flat piece of meat.
His wife fainted on the spot from crying, and the child stood there in a daze, as if he didn't understand what it meant to lose his father.
And that day, I was carrying a straw doll with me, and I had been carrying it with me for half a year.
In these six months, I didn't encounter any danger, and the straw doll was never used once.
I thought, if I didn't take this seal and let that person carry the straw doll to perform the mission, would he not have died?
I was not very old at that time, and I saw that A child who was about the same age as my brother stood there, staring at the urn at a loss, and I felt bad.
But at that time, I thought that it was not my fault. After all, no one in this world would protect me, so what was wrong with me protecting myself?
But I slept very poorly in those days, and then I went to check how many employees had been forced to perform tasks without defensive forbidden objects because of me in the past six months.
In the end, I found that there was almost no free time when using forbidden objects such as substitute straw dolls. Every day, someone had to attack because of an emergency, but there was no forbidden object to use.
Half a year, one hundred and eighty days.
At least one hundred and eighty people could use it, which was my conservative estimate at the time. In fact, there must be more.
I thought..."
Su Weiyu paused, looked at the ground, and her eyes were slightly red.
"I thought, I was just afraid that no one would notice me when I was walking on the street, and no one would save me if I was hit by a car, so I always carried the scarecrow with me. But they knew they were going to die, and they didn't bring anything to protect them, but they still did that.
I suddenly felt that this was all my fault. Although I didn't do anything harmful, it was really unfair that I had to let them take risks with their lives just because I didn't feel safe.
If my father had a life-saving medicine and it was taken by a person with paranoia, and that person was fine, but my father died because he didn't have the medicine, then I would definitely not forgive that person.
Although I had other thoughts at the time, I also thought that so many people died every day, and it wasn't me who killed them, so what did it have to do with me.
But I still felt uncomfortable, and I just carried the forbidden object around the street every day, and this question kept coming to my mind.
Then one day, a criminal broke into a company with a dangerous forbidden object and killed many people.
In the end, several first-level employees stopped the criminal. At that time, the ground was covered with blood and flesh. The only first-level employee who was still alive only had half of his upper body left. An eyeball leaked out of the eye socket and hung there. He was using his last breath. He called his wife at about the same time, but in the end he didn’t get through. "
Su Weiyu paused: "Do you know why I remember it so clearly?"
Xia Shou felt very depressed, but when he thought that Su Weiyu, who was still young at the time, saw all this, he felt an inexplicable sense of suffocation.
Although the Su Weiyu standing in front of him now was in a normal and healthy state of mind, when he listened to this story, he had been worried that the previous Su Weiyu would go crazy because of these tangled choices.
"Why?" Xia Shou asked in a low voice.
"Because my dad was talking to friends in that company that day, and a piece of the glass that the criminal smashed cut into his ear, which was only about the size of half a fingernail." Su Weiyu pointed to her little finger, "Because he wasn't directly involved, he ran away as soon as there was any movement, so my dad just thought it was an explosion."
“But I know that those people almost couldn’t stop the criminal and they fought tooth and nail to kill him.
This time, my dad just had some bleeding from his ear, but next time it might be Xiaoyue, or it might be my mother, and it might not be bleeding from the ear. It might be a fracture, a concussion, going crazy or dying... it could be anything. possible.
Perhaps the worst thing is the scarecrow doll I haven't used in half a year.
It was then that I realized that this world indeed had nothing to do with me, but my parents, my sister, and I had actually been living in such a world.
In the six months since I took away the substitute straw doll, those who died were not necessarily the only employees of the Control Bureau. In every incident, there were some ordinary people whose names were not recorded in the record, and they died just like that because the rescue efforts were a little less. dropped. "
Xia Shou was silent and didn't know what to say. Anyway, he couldn't say anything if he asked Su Weiyu to help him steal the forbidden items.
After hearing this story, even Xia Shou himself didn't want to steal anymore. If he insisted on stealing, he would do it as a last resort.
Wei Yu is really a bit too kind.
I really don’t know how successful her uncle and aunt’s education must have been in her childhood, so that she did not become a native of the motherland when she gained the ability to remain invisible.
"...I'm sorry for not stopping the car and saying so much in one breath, but I can only say it to you." Su Weiyu sniffed and muttered embarrassingly.
She glanced at Xia Shou cautiously, like a kitten or puppy that was afraid of being scolded. She briefly glanced at its owner, then immediately looked away, not daring to look at him.
"But later on, I usually only brought the compass to cut with the boy!" She emphasized specifically, as if she wanted to prove her reformation.
Xia Shou: "..."
"Was I bad before?" Seeing that Xia Shou didn't speak, Su Weiyu looked so disappointed that she seemed about to cry.
"No, I think Weiyu you are really awesome."
Xia Shou expressed his admiration from the bottom of his heart. After hearing her journey, he even felt that being friends with Su Weiyu was like being friends with a philistine and a pious nun. He had even thought about how many control bureaus he could steal just now. banned items.
This idea really tarnishes the other person's consciousness.
Xia Shou was very glad that he listened to the story first and didn't say it out loud first.
