Ying Lou held his shoulder with one hand, took out his wallet with one hand, and asked the owner of the spicy skewer stall, "How much is it?"

The boss didn't know XO, just thought it was a fancy alcoholic drink bought by a kid from somewhere else: "This wine is not mine, the rest is 11.5 yuan."

After receiving the money, the boss inquired curiously, "What's wrong with the young man?"

Ying Lou picked Xiaochi Chi up on his back and put his hands on the back of his knees: "He didn't want to go to school, so he skipped class. I'm his brother, now take him home."

Xiaochi Chi leaned on Ying Lou's back and whispered, "Lou, I'm not drunk, I can walk."

Ying Lou put his wallet away and said without looking back, "Do you want me to carry you head on?"

Xiaochi Chi imagined that image and chose to shut up.

Ying Lou turned around and saw Shoucheng Zhu, who had put his briefcase in the basket of his bicycle, in the middle of the crowd.

He didn't see Ying Lou and Xiaochi Chi, kicked off his bicycle leg brace and greeted a few passing students with a smile, like a kind and friendly old man.

Ying Lou looks at the data panel in front of her.

The target of their mission is Shoucheng Zhu.

Shoucheng Zhu vs Xiaochi Chi , favorable value 80, regret value 0.

He watched Shoucheng Zhu for a moment in silence, then left the place with Xiaochi Chi on his back.

The alleys of the town are as intertwined as the wires overhead, and can lead anywhere.

The daytime sun sizzles the rubber of the wires, while the warming sunset slows the heat, and tiny sparrows hop around on the clothes-drying wires, happily.

Ying Lou chose a road that was not too crowded according to "Ying Lou's" memory, which was quiet enough not to disturb Xiaochi Chi, and enough for him to organize his thoughts.

Just now, Ying Lou was still in the classroom and couldn't suddenly disappear in public, so he spent the next half of the class reading through the world line.

...... He regretted that he had done so.

Every second that I look at it, Ying Lou is tormented by the unbearable heartache for a second, the chill radiates from the chest to the whole body, the blood rushes in the mind, the left hand is so numb that I can only clench my fingers over and over again, using the pain to relieve something.

He wanted to find Xiaochi Chi and say nothing, think nothing, just hold him.

After class, he found the teacher.

As an exceptional student, Ying Lou's ease in calling in sick to her homeroom teacher was unimaginable.

Even if he said "I'm a little depressed today, I don't want to study and want to go home", the class teacher would only tell him to get some rest, not to mention that he did look pale, the class teacher saw the bad situation and immediately released him from his sick leave, and even told him not to come tomorrow.

On the way to Xiaochi Chi, Ying Lou thought a lot about it.

Ying Lou can be sure that they have come to a parallel world to Xiaochi Chi's original world.

In the previous world, the main gods classified Qingguang Jiao as a "scum", which seemed very forced to Ying Lou, but in this world, Shoucheng Zhu was directly designated as the target of the mission?

What is the point of talking to a scum about attacking and receiving, besides being disgusting and ridiculous?

It seems that the Lord God is really doing everything to keep Chi Xiao around.

After all, to find such a barely qualified parallel world, the Lord God must have taken great pains.

On top of that, the Lord God has an ironclad violation this time.

Because while reading the world line, Ying Lou can also read the memories of another person.

...... the memory of the original " Ying Lou" on this world line.

This means that he is now the host of "Ying Lou", just like Xiaochi Chi.

And Ying Lou's contract with the Lord God never includes taking the bodies of people who already exist in the normal world line and using them for himself.

Even in the world of "Sailor Immortal", Ying Lou only takes up the name and identity of "Yujing Wen" who is out on a trip.

At that time, 061 was eager to reveal his identity in front of Xiaochi Chi, borrowing people's identities, originally for the purpose of being dismantled.

As for the subsequent dismantling by Feast Jinhua's design, it was just a ploy that he took advantage of.

Previously, the Lord God had already crossed the line once.

In the world of Time-Stopping Cloud, he left Ying Lou with only the option of a sick and weak body, and delayed the release of the world line to the point that he was unable to open a normal quest, and this time, the Lord God threw him directly at Ying Lou himself, all of which are moves that seriously violate the contract.

Ying Lou has secretly recorded all the abnormal data.

His original plan was to submit the data to the watchdog as soon as Chi Xiao was gone and the Lord could no longer make things difficult for Chi Xiao.

But now, Ying Lou is really starting to worry.

At the point in time when they are currently transported here, nothing has happened yet.

Xiaochi Chi The fourteen-year-old summer vacation has just begun. They have an infinite future, infinite possibilities, endless summers, endless sunlight coming through the window, hitting the teenager's bones, urging him to grow up year after year.

Fourteen years old, what a great age.

Firmly believe that good grades can change everything and the future; the biggest worry is nothing more than the teacher draw him on the blackboard to do a certain problem is too difficult; jump up and touch the basket, you feel that you have touched the sky.

Most importantly, he was there, and so was Ying Lou herself.

His own home is just below his house, no need to travel from the south of the sky to the north of the sea, no need to wait for him to finish ten more tasks, but it is just a lift of the leg, a bow of the head to reach the distance.

...... who can resist such temptation.

The sunset light falls on the two children, the temperature is just right, the youth is just right.

The faint spray of wine behind her made Ying Lou feel as if she was carrying a wine heart chocolate.

He decided not to think about the future, but to take care of the immediate future.

The wine was strong, and a little bit of it went to Xiaochi Chi's head, making him start to feel dizzy.

The good thing is that Xiaochi Chi doesn't like to go crazy even when he's drunk.

He was coiled around Ying Lou's neck in a regular manner, his feverish face resting on the skin of Ying Lou's exposed school uniform collar.

Ying Lou could feel the blink of his eyelashes, brushing his neck delicately, not resting at all.

He let out a helpless sigh, "Don't look at me, close your eyes and get some rest."

Xiaochi Chi In a tone of voice of discovering a new world, he said, "Lou, you're so small."

Ying Lou : "...... eh?"

Xiaochi Chi looked at him seriously from the side: "I have grown up, how come you are still so small."

Ying Lou took a step and tightened her fingers around his knee: "Yes, I'm trying to grow up."

Xiaochi Chi stamped his chest with his fist, "Here's your little red flower."

Ying Lou : "Thank you, Mr. Ji."

Once the name was out, he realized that he could look at him and call him by his name this time.

Light and square, not bound by any contract.

Ying Lou tries, " Chi Xiao ?"

Xiaochi Chi was confused: "Hmm?"

" Chi Xiao ."

"Well ......"

Ying Lou inclined her head: " Xiaochi Chi ?"

Xiaochi Chi felt himself slipping a bit, and climbed up on Ying Lou's neck like a wombat, and his forehead touched Ying Lou's lightly.

Two people's heads against each other, only this point of contact, but already enough to call people's hearts.

Xiaochi Chi breathed in gently when her skin, which had been scorched by the alcohol, touched this coolness, and then obediently answered, "Yes."

Ying Lou, full of pain, tipped his forehead, carrying Xiaochi Chi, who was whispering in his sleep, took a few more steps.

Xiaochi Chi's visionary dream is a jumble of randomness, jumping from side to side as he mumbles a few lines from the movie he's been talking about, then grabs his shirt and whispers, "Lucas, I want to take that play.

Ying Lou's heart fluttered.

He remembered the chandelier that had accidentally come loose when it sent Xiaochi Chi into the system.

In Ying Lou's memory, there is still a shadow of the old theater.

About an hour's bike ride from the town and countryside where they are located will bring them to a small town. The town is known as a cultural town and has hosted several theater and cultural festivals. The theater, which doubled as a movie theater, was located on the edge of the town and had only a few small plays and countless movies.

When they were young, little Ying Lou and little Chi Xiao, they saw "Titanic" and "Cinema Paradiso" here.

In the summer movie theater, with its whirring fans and faint smell of sweat, Ying Lou bought Chi Xiao plums and allowed him to spit their cores into his palm.

Ying Lou wondered what kind of mindset Xiaochi Chi had when she took on that play.

If it wasn't for that play, they probably wouldn't have seen each other again, much less come full circle like this and come back to the same place.

Ying Lou would like to ask a question.

A question he had asked a long time ago, but never got a clear answer to.

After reading the world line, he understood part of it, but not all of it yet.

He asked, " Chi Xiao , at that time, how did you think of being a star?"

Xiaochi Chi grunted, not sure if he heard clearly, or just a drunken murmur.

Ying Lou asked him, "Why did you drop out of school when your grades were so good?"

...... Yeah, why?

Xiaochi Chi hazy, think of a certain time after walking a commercial show, hiding in the stairwell to smoke, but accidentally met an old man, a pair of glasses, svelte.

He borrowed the old man fire.

The old man put on his cigarette and said gently, "Thank you, Chi Xiao."

Xiaochi Chi was curious: "You know me?"

"I was just under the stage, in the first row." The old man said, "I was invited by a friend to watch the show also by the way, I did not expect to see you. ...... Your appearance and temperament are very much in line with the person I imagined."

Xiaochi Chi A hearing of this strange, clutching a cigarette, eyebrows lightly raised, looking up and down at him.

"Sorry, don't misunderstand." The old man also sensed that he had not said this properly, smiled apologetically and handed over a business card, "I did come to you on purpose after asking around, but I assure you, I have nothing else in mind. I'm a director and I'm currently working on a film. I would like to see if you are interested, and if so, can you come for an audition next Sunday."

It is not uncommon in the modeling world to be picked up by a director who is not bad in appearance.

But the rarity is that this person debuted in the lead role, and since then dropped out of school, all the way to the highs and occasional lows, but also often a hit reversal.

Anyone would feel that he dropped out of this school worthwhile.

No one is going to ask him why.

Good-looking, good conditions, talent, and noble people, it is natural to do this business, what is the objection?

But Ying Lou still wants to know why.

He knew that Xiaochi Chi had studied so hard to get into the high school where Ying Lou was, and to get into the university where Ying Lou wanted to go in the future, to live step by step, instead of him.

...... What made him choose to give up.

Xiaochi Chi, who was lying on Ying Lou's back, gave the answer in a low voice: "...... Lou's sister-in-law and aunt are moving away."

With just one sentence, Ying Lou understood and closed her eyes in discomfort.

"My home is going to be gone." Xiaochi Chi murmured as she buried herself in Ying Lou's back, "I don't have the money to buy my whole home. Modeling and not having enough money. I need money."

Ying Lou is lost for words.

He wanted to ask Xiaochi Chi why he was so stupid, but the words came to his lips and he finally swallowed them.

Xiaochi Chi wants to keep the last traces of a dead man, so he doesn't even want his own future.

Who knows if Xiaochi Chi will be able to make a living from this in the future before the first film is killed and released?

Xiaochi Chi doesn't know it himself.

The good thing is, life treats him well.

Later, he bought every room in the ramshackle silo, and whenever he had time, he would come back and live in it.

He was the last tenant in the entire silo.

And now, Ying Lou is standing in front of the silo with Xiaochi Chi on her back.

Goose yellow old street lamp side early support mahjong table, if not to grab a seat, this place will soon be occupied by the chessboard, a middle-aged man sitting bareback at the mahjong table, idle, the table scattered mahjong one by one to see, holding a half-eaten old popsicle.

The corridor on the first floor is bustling with boys who want to take pictures on the concrete floor, girls who want to jump on the concrete floor, and Malan blossoms twenty-one.

On the second floor, an old man with a back of ear was shaking the bamboo, shaking it with a tiger's breath, and his partner was standing beside him, watching him with a smile.

A few women who have finished cooking dinner are standing at the entrance of the building chatting. The children and husbands had not yet returned, and they were making the most of it, enjoying a rare moment of leisure in their day.

Ying Lou, carrying Xiaochi Chi, was quite conspicuous, and a woman with a sharp eye soon spotted him: "Oh, what's wrong with Chi Xiao?"

Ying Lou approached and gave a polite bow: "I was out with friends and had a few drinks."

The woman shook her head straight: "Such a small child, what to drink wine. At such a young age, you will regret it only when your stomach gets bad."

A slightly caustic female voice rang out with laughter: "What people say, things gather in groups, people are divided into groups, and thieves mixed together, it is inevitable that the body a little bit of the savage gas."

Ying Lou, who had turned to leave, paused briefly, but after only a moment, he looked as usual, carried Xiaochi Chi to his door, took the key and opened it.

As a rule, Ying Lou's sister-in-law would not return if she did not return at this hour.

Ying Lou put Xiaochi Chi, who had slept on his back for a while and was already awake, on the bed, unscrewed the fan, tucked in the blanket, and said, "You rest first. I'll go out."

Xiaochi Chi head is still a little dizzy, only know that in front of this Lou's body is his 061: "Lou, where are you going?"

Ying Lou stroked his sweaty hair, "I'll go find Aunt Chu and set the record straight."

Xiaochi Chi winked, "You said before, leave them alone."

Ying Lou laughed softly, "Before? Is that what I said?"

Xiaochi Chi drifted off, pulled up the quilt to cover her mouth, and shook her head, "I don't know, I don't know."

Ying Lou was amused by his appearance, pinched his face, took out his cell phone from the small cabinet again and pushed the door out.

Xiaochi Chi pricked up his ears and listened to the commotion outside.

Aunt Chu didn't expect Ying Lou to return, and it was obvious that he was coming for her, quietly standing in front of her, she first deflated two points.

She braced herself, "What are you doing?"

Ying Lou said, "Aunt Chu, who did you mean by the phrase thief just now?"

The two older sisters around Aunt Chu glanced at each other and shut up collectively, ready to watch the fun.

Aunt Chu was not alone, and in front of so many people, she knew that Ying Lou would not be violent, so she strained her neck: "What, you have the guts to steal but not the guts to admit it?"

"Do you mean me?"

"My semiconductor was found in your house, if not you stole it who would it be?"

"Good." Ying Lou gave a polite nod and handed the phone out.

Aunt Chu was stunned, "What is this for?"

Ying Lou : "Aunt Chu, didn't you say you lost something? Call the police."

Aunt Chu: "......"

Seeing Aunt Chu's face turning blue and red, Ying Lou flipped the phone cover open: "If you don't report it, then I will."

Aunt Chu did panic a little, her voice instantly raised: "What did you report to the police? Do you still want to catch a thief?"

"You go on. I have your words on tape." Ying Lou said, "You know very well whether I am a thief or not. If you call me a thief one more time, you will have to pay a thousand dollars more when you go to court in the future. You say, why bother?"
