There is something wrong with my infinite flow teammates!

"Nothing." Xueno shook her head slowly and smiled faintly, "Where are you taking me today?"

Beiyuan Kong's slightly frowned brows slowly relaxed, and looking at her forced smile, his heart was filled with a strong warm current.

"Don't ask yet, I'll take you there."

Yukino raised her eyes and looked into his gaze. After three seconds, she slowly nodded.

So, Kitahara Sora took her hand and walked towards the street to the north.

They first went to the supermarket to buy some wine and fruit, then Kitahara Sora left Yukino on the roadside to wait, and he turned into a small alley and came out in less than ten minutes.

The two walked north along the main road and arrived at the foot of Caifeng Mountain.

The entire mountain is paved with asphalt roads. It takes less than 20 minutes to drive from the foot of the mountain to Daxiang Zen Temple, but it takes two hours to walk.

It is morning now, and the road is full of elderly people doing morning exercises. They got up very early and many of them have already walked down the mountain. Some of them are carrying loads, and some are holding water bottles, which are all filled with cool spring water from the top of the mountain.

But Kitahara Sora did not choose to go to the top of the mountain. Instead, when they reached halfway up the mountain, he pulled Yukino and turned into a cement staircase that only allowed two people to walk side by side.

Going up along the steep pier, when we reached a height higher than the temple, the broken concrete steps disappeared, leaving only a winding dirt road.

At first, Yukino thought that some old friend of Kitahara Sora lived here, but the more she walked, the more confused she became.

As time reached the afternoon, after crossing mountains and rivers, the two finally arrived at their destination.

This place is almost at the edge of the town. There are mountains on all sides and it looks like the road in a remote mountain area, but there are signs of human activities everywhere.

When Kitahara Sora stopped, Yukino was stunned again...

There are two tombstones in front of me. On the tombstone on the left is a black-and-white photo of about eight inches. The person in the photo is not very old, and judging from his appearance, he is only in his fifties.

He had a calm face, his expression was neither humble nor arrogant, his honesty was tempered by a hint of determination, and his eyes were tainted with a hint of sadness that had been smoothed over by life.

There was a large line of words written under the photo: "Tomb of loving father Yin Xiong" and next to it were his birth date and death date.

The photo on the tombstone next to it is of a woman, who is about the same age as the uncle. Looking closely, except for the different time of death, they were born on the same day of the same month of the same year.

The woman had a kind face, and her faint smile was forever engraved in this black and white photo.

Her tombstone is engraved with "loving mother Liu Xiaoxin"

This is not the most important thing. This uncle is actually very handsome, and the aunt is also very beautiful. But their eyebrows are 70% similar to Beiyuan Kong beside them.

"..."

Xueno covered her mouth tremblingly, her heart was like a raging sea. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything.

"This was my goal at the beginning. When I entered the zombie world, a spark of hope ignited in my heart..."

Beiyuan Kong bent down and took out a series of sacrificial items from the ring, including fruits, white wine, paper money, incense sticks, etc.

"Do you know why I never mentioned Kitahara Sora's appearance to you? Because I don't even dare to think about it in detail. I have had the urge to ask the observer countless times, but I stopped myself every time."

Yukino didn't say anything, but just squatted beside him silently and helped him set the plates and fruits.

"I look a lot like Kitahara Sora... He's almost exactly like me when I was younger. Kei knows this because she read my memories and knows what I used to look like, and she guessed why I never mentioned it."

Beiyuankong took out two candles, lit them with a lighter and inserted them in front of the tombstone...

"Later, I didn't plan to ask the Observer because I already knew the answer... He can control our life and death, can bring back the dead, and can revive any of us, but He is also bound by rules... He is not allowed to interfere with the life and death of humans in reality, just like He does not allow us to cause turmoil in human civilization."

"Do you know why I brought you here?"

Kitahara Sora suddenly raised his head and stared at Yukino, but before she could answer, he took the lead in explaining:

"Because I know what you are thinking. I know you can choose to marry here for me. You also know that I will never let you go in my heart, and that I have been abandoned by this world. That's why you suddenly showed that expression."

"I can't come whenever I want, because there are only two possible endings for me. Either I die in the mission, or I survive and escape from that world by chance, which means I have lost the power to travel through parallel spaces... In the time and space I belong to now, in China there... there are no these two graves."

Yukino opened her mouth and called out in a hoarse voice: "Sora..."

"I went from not daring to ask the observer to not wanting to ask the observer. Because I guessed my uniqueness... I might be a very special experimental subject... Kitahara Sora, this orphan, seems to exist just to wait for my soul to come."

Because looking back on the first half of his life...he lived so unlike a human. He was like a simulated human consciousness, controlling a body.

"In fact, I have let it go a long time ago. If I could, I would never compromise... But this is the reality, because the Observer cannot resurrect my parents."

Beiyuan Kong unscrewed the bottle of inexpensive wine, filled a small glass with wine and placed it in front of the tombstone.

Then he poured himself another glass, stood up respectfully, held the cup with both hands to salute the tombstone, and poured the wine in front of the grave.

Suddenly, his eyes turned red, he knelt down on the ground and kowtowed three times.

Then he stood up, walked to the tombstone next to him, knelt down again, and kowtowed three more times.

His voice became hoarse and he trembled, "Dad, Mom, I am an unfilial son!"

Chapter 19: Daughter-in-law

The affectionate call made Yukino's eyes suddenly red.

She remembered how he carried her on his back and struggled forward in the snow-covered world, whispering about his past and the person he loved most in his life.

At that time, I had not yet awakened the control of ice element and was still very afraid of the cold.

After he found me, the first thing he did was to cook me a bucket of instant noodles, and then go to look for warm clothes. But it was still very cold, although it was very cold, his back was warm, and his hands around my legs were also very strong.

Even if a zombie pops up in the snow from time to time, that sense of security allows me to sleep soundly without any worries.

That day, I realized the heavy past he had carried. His voice was calm, but he suppressed his irreconcilable anger.

He told his story, expressing his love for his country and his helplessness in committing such a heinous crime. His voice was calm, but every word was heart-wrenching.

Is he a hero?

Yes, since that day, I felt that he was a hero.

He did nothing wrong, he was just born in the wrong era.

Since then, I have realized what a loyal and righteous person he is.

He is also a lonely person, living alone in his own deep feelings, bearing everything silently.

Xue No recalled the scene of their first meeting. It was an unexpected and dramatic encounter. At that time, the teacher asked her to carry the tools from the handicraft class back to the tool room, but she bumped into him when she turned a corner.

Subconsciously, he supported his chest with both hands to avoid hurting the girl.

That was the first time in my life that my most private parts were touched by someone other than myself.

I remember that I slapped him and his face turned red. Then he actually said that if I still didn't feel better, I could slap him again. After that, Guo Zhen stretched out his other cheek...

I was angry and satisfied him because I just thought he was annoying. He took advantage of the girl but he acted like he didn't care.

At that time, he didn't know that he was Yukinoshita Yukino, and he also one-sidedly thought that he was really a pervert.

He realized that he was still angry, so he picked up a handmade knife and stabbed himself in the hand. The bloody scene is still fresh in his memory. At that time, he didn't care because he was on his way to the rooftop to commit suicide.

Later, I had an in-depth discussion with this guy in the service department. He was condescending and superior in every word. He put himself in the position of a 27-year-old big brother and regarded himself as a 17-year-old naive little sister.

Since when did you start to see yourself as a peer?

It's after I fell in love with him and fell deeply in love with him that I subconsciously put myself on the same level as him.

This guy is very gentle, but he gradually became childish after we started dating. He deliberately made childish jokes just to make himself laugh. He often pretended to be scared, and if I glared at him, he would try to please me carefully.

That's because he loves himself.

Because of love, I am afraid. This kind of emotion ignores the age difference. When I think back to when he didn't love me, did he ever treat me well? He teased me, made fun of me, and said whatever he wanted to say without hesitation. He was even more poisonous than me.

……

Looking at the two tombstones in front of her, Yukino's heart began to boil again.

I really met a good person.

He only talked about his past with me, not even to Lingyin, and only brought me here to meet his parents.

Because in his heart, she is already his wife.

Looking at the black and white photos on the two tombstones, Yukino suddenly felt that they were not unfamiliar to her. Instead, she felt a sense of familiarity... because the people who were with her and slept in the same bed with her were all their shadows.

Suddenly, Xueno thought of a hot comment from a Chinese netizen when she was watching a short video before, which might make her unforgettable for the rest of her life.

That was a video of remembering a loved one...

In the picture, there is an old yellowed photo, but as the video plays, the photo gradually loses its color, and as the camera zooms out, a tombstone appears on the screen.

Yukino opened the comments and there was a passage that caught her eyes for a full minute.

If ghosts really exist in the world, perhaps every ghost that scares you is a soul that others long for...

Gradually, Yukino's eyes became redder, but a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Then, she walked between the two tombstones.

She lowered her body slightly and knelt down beside Kitahara Sora.

Then he slowly bent down towards the tombstone and pressed his smooth forehead to the ground, once, twice, three times.

Japan has a very unique and ironic apology culture, which has even developed into the so-called "Dogeza".

But the eldest daughter, who was born into a noble family, was proud and conceited, and had never kneeled to anyone in her life. Today was the first time.

Beiyuan Kong, who was holding his father's tombstone and muttering something softly, was stunned for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He said, "Dad, Mom, I brought your future daughter-in-law to see you today."

Xue Nai also smiled and said softly, "Uncle, Aunt, my name is Yin Hansu, and I'm his fiancée. I regret meeting you under such circumstances, but I'm also very grateful that you gave birth to him and raised him with great difficulty, so that I could meet him."

"He has met my mother since they started dating. Don't worry, my mother likes him very much and he treats me very well too."

Xue No glanced at her lover beside her and said softly, "Your son is the most outstanding person I have ever met. I admire his courage, worship his noble sentiments, appreciate his deep affection, and am deeply grateful for everything he has done for me."

“Without him, I might have starved to death in the dark basement or frozen to death in the snowy field covered with corpses. Without him, I would not have been able to walk out of the pyramid full of alien monsters, nor would I have been able to wake up in Silent Hill full of demon whispers.”

"Yukino..."

Kitahara Sora stared at Yukino in a daze, while the girl smiled calmly and took his hand.

"It was your son who made me interested in Chinese culture and understood the meaning of 'Heaven and Earth are not benevolent, all things are like straw dogs' and 'Heaven moves forward, a gentleman should constantly strive for self-improvement'. He used the most beautiful singing voice to tell me that the world is just like this, and people walking on the road sometimes have no one to confide in."

She remembered the time when she boiled a basin of hot water for herself to take a bath in a world full of zombies, and he sang the song "Your Answer" outside the door to encourage herself.

"He said that we can only lower our heads and wait for the day. Accept all the ridicule and wait to embrace the rainbow. He told me the answer, and told me that as long as I face the light of dawn, I will always break through the fear and cross the darkness."

"He is my light, my sky, I am proud to have won his love, I am proud to be his lover."

Yukino squeezed Kitahara Sora's hand tightly, so tightly that she even trembled a little.

"Your son has always been a shining star. He has never betrayed anyone, neither his two elders nor the country he loves so much. His spine has never been bent, and his faith has never collapsed."

“He could face the oppression of a huge monster and close the door of a car full of refugees. He could also stand alone, with his mortal body, shoulder to shoulder with gods. He used his faith to tell it that he was not a faithless person.”

The girl looked at the tombstone on the left, staring closely at the words 'Yin Xiong', "Uncle, in your opinion, has your son grown into the person you expected? Has he become your pride?"

The black-and-white photo of Yin's father captured his serious expression. His eyes, whose edges had been smoothed out by life, still contained a hint of persistence and perseverance.

He may not deserve sympathy, or he may be very pathetic. In fact, he has been protecting something all his life. When he was young, he carried a gun and protected his country.

When he got old, he put down his gun and guarded his home.

When he picked up the gun, he could block the bullet with his body without hesitation to protect everyone. After he put down the gun, he was used by villains for the sake of his family.

Because by then, his son had become his pride.

"You are a soldier. Just like your name, he has always held your flag and never put it down. Maybe what he did was not just in your eyes, but he has always been my hero."

"Yukino..." Kitahara Sora's lips trembled and his voice choked, "So, this is how you see me?"

Yukino looked at Kitahara Sora with a gentle gaze, and said frankly, "Please don't look down on yourself. Although I also have some inferiority complex... Even so, my standards are still very high."

She smiled and said, "Besides you, who else in this world can satisfy me?"

After saying this, the girl looked at the black and white photo on the tombstone on the right, "Aunt, he may not have let anyone down, but he let you down. Because he was not able to live well according to your wishes."

"I've heard him talk about your story, loyalty, persistence, affection and responsibility. As a modern woman, you possess noble qualities that most people discard, and this is what I want to stick to."

"I love him as you love your uncle. And he treats me as his dearest relative."

Yukino recalled the scenes during their relationship and smiled sweetly: "He took me to the top of the mountains and swore an oath under the sea of ​​stars. He sang me a sweet song. The so-called answer sheet of love is a promise that I will write with my whole life."

"He abandoned his so-called superiority and became childish for me. He told me his embarrassing stories just to make me laugh. Because he once said in his song that he wanted to play with me, wanted to see me laugh, wanted to own me until old age, and wanted to accompany me to the ends of the earth."

That night, the stars were shining, the clouds were lingering, and the fairyland-like scenery made the girl intoxicated...

"Although he has been trying hard to fulfill his promise, and perhaps we won't be able to live with him till old age, but being able to accompany him for one more day is our little luck..."

"He had a miserable fate in his last life, and he also faced many hardships in this life, but I came to his side. I know that he must be happy because of my company. Please leave him to me with confidence, I am his family. I will always accompany him and take good care of him."
