Chapter 54 Dragon and Girl
On the evening of June 6, the Cooper family's home was exceptionally deserted.
Ke Yinzhi and Bai Qiuwu were eating at the kitchen table, chatting about what had happened in the past six months. The two of them were so self-deceiving and talking nonsense to each other, and they did it so naturally, as if it had really happened.
Ke Mingye occupied the sofa in the living room alone, sat on it, looking down at his phone, and listened to their conversation silently.
If there are one or two true words in what Bai Qiuwu said about what happened in high school;
Ke Mingye would never believe that even one of the interesting things the big brother said about his college life, like "eating, drinking and having fun with transfer students", "playing games in the Internet cafe with roommates", "standing in the corner as punishment for failing a course", etc., were true. They were all just made up stories.
Moreover, the writing is poor and perfunctory, basically doing everything to fit the stereotype of college students.
According to his guess, in the past six months, Ke Yinzhi has mostly been wearing a mask and flying between countries to deal with supernatural events and punish superheroes who violate the rules.
University is just a place with a name on it. How can you really spend time there? The most you can do is ask the control bureau to find a substitute to take classes for you.
Ke Mingye was tired of the two people talking nonsense. The more he listened, the more he felt that it was an insult to their intelligence, so he picked up the remote control and pressed the power button on the TV.
As soon as the TV screen lit up, a photo of a news event came into view.
In the photo, the two new magic girls posed cutely for the camera. Magic girl Hui Jin stood between the two with her shoulders folded, as if threatened, and made a very reluctant "yeah" gesture. Her face almost had a look of "I want to run away", her eyes slanted into the distance, and she didn't even face the camera.
The female host sat gracefully, reporting an emergency in a standard broadcasting tone.
"Just half an hour ago, the magical girls Ember, Rainbow, and Kaede successfully assisted the police in capturing the superhuman fugitives 'Mineman' and 'Chima'. According to police data, these two superhuman criminals escaped from prison a month ago and attacked the police out of revenge. The situation was once critical."
"Fortunately, when the police were struggling with the criminals, three magical girls stepped forward and successfully captured the two fugitives with their courage and wisdom. No guards or onlookers were injured in the incident."
I was wondering why she wasn't at home, it turns out she was leading new recruits on a mission... Ke Mingye stared at Bai Zini on TV and wondered, what were the others doing?
At the same time, I was drinking wine and thinking about a corner of the coastline.
Bai Ziling stood on the deserted beach, his back against a huge rock, a bag of blood clutched in his right hand, drinking from it in small sips through a straw.
Today she couldn't find a suitable person to attack. None of the criminals and robbers showed up. She was too lazy to go too far, so she had to go to the hospital to steal blood bags.
She was barefoot, with her sandals aside, and the sea water gently caressing her toes.
The black waves crashed on the shore and broke into white foam. The sudden sea breeze blew her hair coolly, and the pale white hair seemed to be floating in the wind.
Bai Ziling scratched his forehead with his hand and looked quietly at the distant horizon.
Suddenly, she turned her red eyes away and whispered, "It's you again."
The young dragon was hiding behind a nearby rock. It poked its head out and stared at her cautiously. "If you don't want to see me, I'll leave right away."
Bai Ziling looked at it for a while and shook his head: "Have you been following me? Since when?"
"long long ago."
"Has it been a long time... Then why don't you talk to me?"
"I'm afraid you hate me," the young dragon paused, lowering his blood-red eyes in the shadows, "I am a dragon."
"I'm still a vampire." Bai Ziling lowered his eyes and looked at the sea water under his feet. "I don't dare to tell others that I'm a vampire, for fear that they will hate me."
"Are they family members?" asked Youlong.
Bai Ziling was silent for a while and nodded slightly.
"They are right next to me, but I dare not speak. Everyone around me is nice to me, but I am the only one who is different. It always feels like there is a world between us... Is this how it feels?" Young Dragon said slowly.
Bai Ziling was stunned and said softly: "You are obviously a dragon, but you understand people's thoughts very well."
"Because I have observed many people." said Youlong.
"Is it……"
Bai Ziling hugged her knees and sat down on the beach, looking at the undulating sea; the young dragon hesitated for a moment, then slowly moved its paws to her side, squatting beside her like a cat. One man and one dragon, sitting quietly on the beach under the moonlight.
"I know you are not a bad person." said the young dragon.
"I suck human blood."
“I’ve even eaten panda.”
“Have you ever eaten panda?”
Bai Ziling raised her eyebrows slightly and turned her head to look at it curiously.
"I was still young at the time and didn't know it was a panda," Youlong whispered. "Everyone liked it very much. Many people went to the zoo to see it every day. Many people scolded me on the Internet and said I should be sentenced to death. But I was thrown into the zoo at the time. I was very hungry and didn't know anything. When I came to my senses, I ate many animals."
"so poor."
"Do you think pandas are pitiful?" The young dragon's head and tail drooped like a child who had done something wrong. "I also think that it did nothing wrong..."
"No, it's the dragon that's pitiful." Bai Ziling said, reaching out to touch the horns on its head, "You must feel guilty, right?"
The young dragon didn't say anything, just gently scratched his face with his claws and nodded.
"Do I look scary?" it suddenly asked.
"No." Bai Ziling shook his head, "At least not to me."
“Sometimes I can’t figure out… who I am and I always feel lonely,” it said.
"Me too." Bai Ziling said softly.
They were all silent for a while.
"I have a question for you." Young Dragon said.
"what?"
"Can you be my friend?" the young dragon asked cautiously.
"Aren't we already friends?" Bai Ziling said.
Hearing this, the young dragon was stunned for a long time. It scratched its cheek with its claws, raised its tail slightly, and opened its mouth slightly, but couldn't say a word.
They just looked at the sea quietly for a while. The waves on the beach gently lapped against Youlong's feet and Bai Ziling's ankles. The moonlight lengthened the shadows of the two, one big and one small.
"I have to go." Bai Ziling turned his head to look at it and broke the silence with a low voice.
"it is good."
The young dragon nodded, shrank back into the shadows behind the rocks cautiously, and waved its claws at the white-haired girl.
"Goodbye," it said.
"Goodbye."
Bai Ziling also waved to it, stood up from the beach, picked up the sandals placed aside, left shallow footprints on the sand, and slowly walked away under the moonlight.
Please give me some recommendation votes, thank you.
