Invade the World

  Chapter 263 The sad truth

"Didn’t Xingjie live in a room on the rooftop?" Xu Xiangyang replied with a smile, "Then I heard the two teachers say that someone had lived in that place before. Out of curiosity, I understood the situation and found that it happened by chance. Very, I didn't expect that the last resident was also from the 15th Middle School, or our senior sister."

   "...and you know about Chen Hongying?"

   "Yes, we also went to ask her home. About her family background, and what happened afterwards, we all heard very touched..."

   "Feelings?"

  Zhao Le scratched the back of his head, and answered with a wry smile.

   "You guys think it's weird."

"why would you say so?"

Lin Xingjie, who was next to   , raised her brows slightly and folded her arms.

   "Because of her poor grades, she often skips classes. She is a famous bad girl in the school. She also mixes with people outside the school. She has been punished twice by the school and has not changed her..."

   "I don't look down on people just because of this kind of thing."

  The person who said this was Xu Xiangyang.

  Seeing his serious look, Zhao Le shook his head and sighed slightly.

   "Really, that's great. But not everyone thinks that way."

   "...Is it because of this that the two teachers and the people in the school have been concealed from the relationship between the two of you?"

   "There must be a reason for this."

  Zhao Le simply dragged a small stool from the side, and sat down directly surrounded by the three high school students, and could not care about his face anymore.

"If my parents heard that I was in love with a gangster, they would definitely have to worry about it. It would be hard enough for them to raise me up and I don’t want them to worry about it. The same goes for the people in school, the teacher won’t say anything, they They are all against premature love; as for the classmates, they always feel that they will look at us both with different eyes. Neither she nor I can accept this, so after talking with friends, we didn't say anything to anyone."

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but fall into thinking.

Although the first and second couples of "high-grade students x bad girls" in the fifteenth high school, there are very similar places in the family background, and some places even make people feel that "there is such a coincidence in the world"; However, Zhao Le and Chen Hongying, the "predecessors", chose a completely different response from him and Xingjie in some ways...

   "I believe Brother Le, you should be the kind of good student. You keep yourself at home on weekends. I guess right?"

   "Haha, it seems we both have a common language."

  The other party laughed.

  Xu Xiangyang smiled and nodded, thinking "it's different now...", he continued to ask:

   "Then you usually don't have the opportunity to play around, how did you meet Chen Xuejie?"

  "Didn’t you just say that, Chen Hongying used to live on the rooftop of this building."

  Zhao Le answered it for granted.

"My parents are the managers of the house. This matter must be approved by both of them. In fact, they took special care of them because they knew that it was Chen Hongying and my classmates at the same school. She knew it."

"As you said, there was basically no fun in my previous life. Except for homework and studying, I did homework. I didn't even have the time to go out to play ball. There is always no way to hold on for too long on such days. . So every time I was kept in the house for a long time, I would still go out for a walk."

"I don’t go very far, just wander around. In most cases, I don’t even get out of this building. I usually walk to the patio downstairs where the bicycle is parked. Nothing else, just the rooftop upstairs."

  "One day, I walked up the stairs to the rooftop as usual, and suddenly found that the atmosphere over there was a bit different. The abandoned house smelled of people living..."

  The young man said, his voice softened unconsciously. There was a casual smile on his face, as if he was converged in thinking, his eyes flashed with nostalgia; and the three young people around him also listened very seriously.

   "I thought the tramp came up from somewhere, and was about to go back and tell my parents. Then, I saw her."

"Chen Hongying... That girl is sitting on the edge of the railing, as if looking into the distance. Her hair is longer than other girls. After all, there is no need to abide by the school rules. She also has a drink cup and an opened snack bag next to her. , Half of the person's body was leaning outside the edge of the house, and the two legs were shaking like this..."

  Xu Xiangyang listened, and couldn’t help feeling: After so long, the other party can still remember this scene so clearly. It seems that this encounter is indeed an important life memory for Zhao Le.

  And most importantly—

   sounds pretty romantic.

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't help turning his head to look at his girlfriend, and found that the girl happened to cast her gaze over.

   At the moment when the two eyes met, Xu Xiangyang naturally recalled the scene where they met. He believed that what Xing Jie was thinking about was the same idea, and that was a common memory that only belonged to him and her.

  He realized that “romantic” is not “romantic”, after all, it depends on the emotional connection between each other. If the two become strangers in the end, it doesn't matter whether they are romantic or not.

   But if they can develop to this point, it is "only the road is ordinary at the time"-even the ordinary scene will become extraordinary because of the existence of this special relationship.

"I don’t know if I was frightened or dumbfounded. I remembered that I didn’t move for a while and stared at her, but she found out. I hurriedly shouted, "Get down from there, it’s too dangerous." !', she smiled and didn't speak, jumped off the railing, and walked straight towards me. Only then did I realize that she was the famous bad girl in our class."

"Originally, I didn't have much intersection with her, but since then, we two have re-acquainted each other. Once we get together again, the relationship gradually gets better. She doesn't come here often, but she often comes here after a while. I stayed for a few days, and I would come up to see her every time. Of course the people in the school didn’t know about this kind of thing. My parents didn’t even know that I said to play, but actually slipped upstairs to see her... "

  As Zhao Le talked, he couldn't help but laugh.

   "Hey, in retrospect, that period was indeed the happiest time in my entire high school period. I didn't have to think about grades. I had blown the air on the roof and chatted, and both of them were very satisfied."

"Then what?"

"Then, we are together. Even though the time that I can stay with her is not long, the school has to hide from others, I have to study after school, she also has her own things to do, but talk about friends. This kind of thing, everyone can see it right."

  The youth spoke lightly, but judging from the nostalgia in his tone, he and Chen Hongying's senior sister should have had a green and beautiful relationship that is worthy of the envy of others.

   But if that is the case—

After Xu Xiangyang and the girls looked at each other, he couldn't help asking.

   "Brother Le, do you know what happened to Senior Sister Chen Hongying?"

   "...what's wrong? I haven't seen her since I graduated."

  He has been staring at the youth's face, observing whether the expression on the other's face has changed slightly. He felt that Zhao Le's dazed look seemed to be really unaware.

   Does this mean that the other party is innocent?

   However, judging from the content of the psychic memories, the two old people are very likely to go to Chen Hongying for their own son...

  At this time, the squad leader who had not spoken all the time pulled the corners of Xu Xiangyang and Lin Xingjie's clothes at the same time.

  I didn’t care about Zhao Le and watched by the side. After waiting for the friends to come around, she said to them with a serious face:

  "Could it be said that the two elderly people only realized that they were in a premature love, so they chose to ask Chen Hongying?"

   "...not impossible."

  Xu Xiangyang stroked his forehead and replied with a wry smile.

   "If that were the case, wouldn't things become more unbearable? No one did anything wrong, it was an unfortunate accident—"

   "I don't think it looks like it."

Lin Xingjie shook her head, denying the idea.

  "It’s not that I didn’t think about this possibility. But then I realized that Xiangyang’s psychic was only going back to that day, but I didn’t know the real cause of the incident."

"If it was really an accident, there would be no way to explain why Chen Hongying was nervous that night. When she saw the two elderly people enter her room, she ran away without asking anything; and... If it’s really just asking someone to talk to, why would they still take sticks? I feel that something we don’t know must have happened before that night."

   Hmm... Xu Xiangyang couldn't help but nodded in agreement. With Xingjie's personality, before making a decision, he should have thoughts in his heart to try to excuse the two old people.

  Furthermore, based on the situation he “witnessed”, some of Chen Hongying's performance was indeed as Xingjie said, and it was more like he had known that the old people came at him “with malicious intent” and escaped very decisively.

   "Hey, what's the matter?"

  Zhao Le asked curiously behind them.

   "You guys suddenly pulled me out and asked a bunch of if there were some, what are you whispering over there now?"

   "Then I won't hide it from you, Brother Le. I think you should know the news."

  Xu Xiangyang turned his head and said to the young man with a serious face.

  "Do you know what happened to Senior Sister Chen?"

   "Is something wrong with her?"

   "Yes. She is missing." Xu Xiangyang observed the expression on the other's face without blinking, "Neither the police nor her parents were able to find her in the end."

  Zhao Le was silent for a while before replying.

   "...That's it."

  His expression is calmer than expected, a little shocked, but he lacks the sadness of his lover's departure.

   "This is not surprising." Zhao Le said, "She is indeed someone who can do this kind of thing without saying a word, and she has told me several times that she wants to run away from home."

  Xu Xiangyang listened more and more and felt that they really look alike.

  It may be because the two couples are of the same age, the family situation is similar, and the identity difference in school is very similar, so their thoughts and ideas will resonate to a certain extent.

  But because of this...

  Because of this, he felt very curious.

   Judging from the current situation, Zhao Le and Chen Hongying, a pair of "predecessors", not only failed to continue walking together, one of them also ended up miserably, and the instigator was the other's parents.

  Why is there such a difference?

  The story of him and Lin Xingjie is indeed closely related to supernatural powers, but even if neither of them has encountered a supernatural event, Xu Xiangyang believes that their relationship will still be where it is today.

His approach will not change in any way, because the agreement between the two of them was made before they noticed the existence of superpowers; and he was worried about Xingjie’s situation, he would definitely offer the same invitation, and with sister Lian With the protection and help of her, Xingjie can still live a stable life.

  Of course, then there may be no way to become a confidant with the squad leader, and the relationship between the three will not become as complicated as it is now... but that is another matter.

  —So, where are the differences between "them" and "them"?

   "You don't seem to be very sad."

   Xu Xiangyang asked tentatively.

   "You don't like her?"

   "No, I still liked it before."

  Zhao Le smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"But when you like it, don’t you also break up in the end? We both don’t know much about each other. Now that we think about it, we will get together, mainly because of impulse, taking accident as destiny. After all, the experience is different. , The friends I know are not in a circle, and the things I’m interested in are different, and my future ambitions are even more unacceptable..."

  "—After all, she and I are not in the same world."

  When he heard these words, Xu Xiangyang's heart trembled slightly, and he almost couldn't hear what he said next.

  "Didn’t you break up because of graduation?"

   Lin Xingjie couldn't help but ask.

   "How do I feel that you... seem to be a bit resentful towards Senpai?"

  Zhao Le narrowed his eyes.

  He looked at the curious Rapunzel girl, and then at the thoughtful Xu Xiangyang.

   "You really want to know. Since I'm interested, then I won't continue to sell it.... Actually, there is nothing to say, it will only make people feel uncomfortable."

  The youth's voice slowly sinks.

"Originally, the two of us could still get together and get together. It was Chen Hongying who ruined everything. Not to mention her boyfriend or girlfriend. I didn't retaliate against her because I was generous. I heard you say that she is missing now? That's the best thing. , I really don't want to see her again."

  "..."

  Under the wide-eyed gaze of the trio, Zhao Le finally slowly said the ending of the two.

"After I broke up with her first... She blackmailed me on the other hand, saying that the breakup was okay, and she had to pay. She also said that if I didn't give her, she would sue me to insult her, bring the matter to school, and let everyone I all know, and even found her friends from outside school to threaten me."

  It’s been a few years, but when Zhao Le talked about this, there was still a feeling of indignation. The young man clenched his fists, his pupils showing a gloomy color.

   "Just because she had a relationship with someone who shouldn't be together, she wanted to ruin me, so that I can't go to school in the future, let alone go to university..."
