Chapter 25 The Truth

But Li Zhen didn't seem to care. He narrowed his eyes in the bright sunshine, then lowered his head slightly and said softly: "Don't you smile first when you meet your friends? Only when you are the first reaction to the enemy... should you be alert."

Kitagawa Haraki was speechless for a moment.

What he said... seemed to make sense. Although it sounded silly, it was indeed the answer she wanted.

She found that Li Zhen did indeed change subtly - he became more cheerful, more calm, and more humorous - and this seemed to be a manifestation of self-confidence.

Which one of these is real, or the first time he met him?

She remembered the scene last night again, and hesitated for a long time before asking the question: "Last night, do you... know who your opponent is?"

However, Li Zhen did not answer immediately, but patted her back with her hand: "Get ready, we're going to land."

So Beichuan turned his head and looked down - not far away, a thin road turned over the foot of the mountain and led to this side.

They were very lucky. After waiting in the cold wind for five minutes, a truck carrying fruits to Pingyang passed by. Although the driver was quite strange about the two of them, they still got into the car - they just had to sit in the back bucket. Because the cab was already full of drivers who were planning to go to the city to purchase.

The kind driver also gave the two a thick green military coat, so they finally squeezed into a pile of apple baskets and shrank into the coats... finally blocked the cold wind in the early winter morning.

It was not until the car was on the road again and the hills on both sides swept back quickly that Li Zhen, who had been thinking, spoke again: "Think about it, it's incredible."

"Um?"

"It's only two days since I met you the night before yesterday to this morning."

Kitagawa was slightly stunned, then nodded: "Yes."

"I lay there before you came last night, thinking about a lot of things." Li Zhen sighed, looking into the distance without focus, "Maybe it all is fate?"

Kitakawa looked at him sideways, then pulled the fur collar of his coat to his ear, waiting for his next words.

"I was actually very scared at first. You think that I was an ordinary person, but suddenly something like this happened to me. Then my home, school, parents, friends, etc. disappeared. It felt like the end of the world. Some people always said they were abandoned by the world... It was actually like this." He looked at Kitani, then looked up at Chaoyang, which was not so dazzling, and showed a melancholy expression on his face. "Fortunately, I met many kind-hearted people later, which made me feel that there is no way out and slowly settled down... Finally, I met you again. I suddenly realized a very strange and terrible world."

"Actually, I was also very scared at that time. Suddenly I knew that so many people could become as powerful as monsters, and I knew that I was even different from those people... I really wanted to hide in the crowd, find my parents, and continue to live like before. But last night... I encountered so many things again."

Kitagawa whispered, "It's fate."

"Yes, it's fate." Li Zhen smiled, "There was someone I like very much that said that life is about fighting non-stop. So last night... I went to fight."

He raised his head and yelled: "I didn't expect that I didn't die. I barely won. Although it seemed like I was cheating, but..."

He looked at Kitagawa's red face seriously: "I found that it seems that they are not that scary either. It turns out that they are just like me, they will be afraid, bleed, run away, and... defeated."

"So now I'm not that scared. Maybe as you said, this is fate. But think about it, if I had to have such a fate... wouldn't it be wonderful and unique?"

Kitakawa looked at his serious expression and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It turned out to be like this... I also reacted the same way after knowing how unique he was. However, after adapting and calming, I had experienced two collaborative tasks during this period, which took two years.

However, it only took him two days.

So she asked with a slight joking question: "By the way, you were really a good student like you said yesterday? Instead of fighting every day?"

Li Zhen laughed: "Do you think it's easy to be a good student? You also need to endure loneliness and tenacity determination!"

When she heard the word loneliness, Kitakawa's face became slightly darker. Then she turned around and said, "That's right... you said you were cheating, what's going on?"

Li Zhen scratched his head: "That... there is a skeleton in the cave. Have you seen it?"

Kitagawa shook his head: "We didn't let us in... I just vaguely heard the name Adam or something."

"His name is Adam..." Li Zhen repeated it, then wrapped her coat tightly. "It's that thing. It's so strange. I ran into it in the cave... and then it seemed like I was being put on a ghost... No, it should be like Popeye took spinach and stimulant... Maybe he had to add some mystery [Huh] the feeling of phantom medicine, and he got excited all of a sudden..."

Then he said what happened last night.

Kitagawa listened in detail, then frowned and shook his head: "It's really strange... I've never heard of such a thing."

Then the two of them were silent for a while, tightened their clothes at the same time, and leaned against the apple basket.

Kitakawa looked at him, stared at Chaoxia in the sky for a while, and finally spoke, whispering: "There is something I have to tell you."

This is a very solemn tone, so Li Zhen nodded: "Yes."

"Last night, I met Zhang Kesong."

Li Zhen was silent for a while. Then he smiled: "When I came, you don't know what she looked like."

Kitakawa looked at him: "It was when you were on the mountain. She was next to me. I recognized it as you, and accidentally said your name. She only heard it."

Then she saw that Li Zhen seemed to have been cast by someone. He stared at her in a daze, exhaling a continuous white breath from his mouth. After a long time, he said in a dreamy voice: "You mean..."

"She is also a capable person." Kitagawa said softly.

Li Zhenru woke up from her dream and stood up, like a beast looking for prey, looking to both sides: "Where is she? She came with you? Where is?"

Kitakawa shook his head: "I came here myself. But she found you for me. Otherwise, why would you think it would be such a coincidence? Her father... turned out to be a director of the Secret Service Office. You fell down a feather before and were picked up by someone. We asked her father to get the feather, saying that Zhang Kesong wanted to try to find you who escaped... and then she just told me."
