Star calendar 3620, autumn night.

Thirteenth district, this area at the bottom of the city is filled with a decadent and dark atmosphere.

The skinny stray dog ​​overturned the smelly trash can with a "crash", and the garbage swill was scattered all over the ground. A mouse jumped out of the bucket and was caught in the dog's mouth.

The two drunk men came out of the bar cursing, crossed their shoulders and walked into the hair salon with red lights on the opposite side, and never came out again.

Compared with the coldness on the street, an underground fight club named "Red Blood" is brightly lit and full of people.

In the hall that can accommodate thousands of people, several bright lights converged on the two figures fighting fiercely on the fighting arena in the center of the hall, and the shouts and shouts from all around almost lifted the roof.

"Kill him! Kill him!"

"Kick him! Beat him!"

"Damn trash! Can such a big man beat a child?!"

Excited, a man threw a drink can onto the stage, and was dragged away by two law enforcement officers in red.

On the stage, a young man hit the muscular burly man opposite with an elbow. When the opponent was hit by the huge impact and bent down, he quickly clasped the opponent's shoulder and pressed down, raised his left leg, and "bang" With a sound, the knee hit the big man's head heavily, and the audience who were closer could almost hear the sound of the big man's nasal bone breaking.

There was a moment of silence in the noisy hall, and when the big man fell to the ground with blood on his face, the atmosphere reached its peak in an instant. At first, there were one or two people, and then more and more, almost everyone shouted a name at the top of their throats:

"Wildfire! Wildfire! Wildfire! Wildfire—"

……

When Gu Ye came out from the back door of "Red Blood", it was already late at night.

The boy stood in front of the silver-white metal door, with bandages wrapped around his exposed wrists.

The slightly longer hair tips slightly covered the delicate eyebrows and eyes, revealing a pair of dark eyes soaked in cold springs, and a small tear mole at the corner of the eyes.

Last night he went through six fights without a single defeat, and got his 6 yuan bonus, but the price was equally heavy.

His right arm was slightly fractured, his left knee was swollen, and his whole body was covered with blue-purple bruises, even the corner of his mouth was not spared.

"Boss, come for a pack of cigarettes, and a hard pack of snow mountains."

"Xiao Gu went to fight again today?"

"Ah."

"Listen to Uncle's persuasion, those people inside are desperate, you..."

"No way, Xiao Chuan needs money for medical treatment. See you later." Gu Ye interrupted the other party, turned around and walked out of the dark alley.

The thirteenth district, which can be called the federal sin city, people die in various ways every day, or are killed by vendettas, or die in the arena of life-and-death battles, or die from drug overdose, or even violent. Killed on the belly of a woman in the red light district.

The law of the jungle is better interpreted in this crime zone.

Gu Ye found his own heavy motorcycle in the parking lot, put on his helmet, and drove through the dark thirteenth district with the roar of the engine, and finally passed the district checkpoint before closing at twelve o'clock at night, and drove into the north of the city In a familiar alley.

There was a light on the second floor of an old building in the alley. The yellow light was like a fire, and as long as you got close to it, you could feel a warm feeling in your heart.

A somewhat thin figure was leaning against the window sill, and after seeing Gu Ye's familiar figure, he began to wave his hands desperately.

"I'm back. I'll take you to the hospital for a physical examination tomorrow." Gu Ye entered the door, habitually wanted to take off his clothes and go to the bathroom to take a shower, but paused after rubbing his fingers against the corner of his clothes.

It's better not to let Xiao Chuan see those bruises on his body that look a bit tragic.

"Brother! Did you go to the thirteenth district to fight again?" The boy sitting on the bed was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with soft short black hair hanging obediently on his forehead, and his pale lips made people feel pity for nothing. Come on, he was staring at the bruise at the corner of Gu Ye's mouth, but his tone was firm.

"Well. It's okay, I won, and I didn't get hurt much."

"You promised me that I wouldn't go again..." Xiao Chuan pursed his lips, his eyes were red: "Brother, I'm dying, so don't go, okay?"

"Shut up! Go to sleep! Go to the hospital tomorrow, that's it!" Gu Ye bared his teeth and yelled back a little irritably, but was immediately discouraged when he saw the boy shrank obviously.

He went to the bed and sat down, stroking the top of the boy's head with his palm. He was obviously only 18 years old, but his voice didn't have the vigor that a boy should have, but was full of exhaustion: "Be obedient, take a good rest, We will go to the hospital for reexamination tomorrow morning."

"elder brother!"

boom--

He was answered by the sound of the door being shut.

And the other side.

After taking a shower, Gu Ye, with his upper body bare and wiping his wet hair, sat on the bed in his own cubicle, took out a cigarette and lit it, but he didn't put it in his mouth, but held it between his fingertips, and remained silent. Watching the fire light spread little by little, the smoke slowly rose and dissipated, and finally only the cigarette butt an inch long was left between the fingers, so I dropped it and slowly crushed it with my feet.

There is a black and white photo hanging on the wall. In the photo is a handsome man in the uniform of the federal army. His beautiful peach eyes and tight lips make him look a little serious. Yu flash.

Gu Ye took out a clean towel and wiped the photos carefully.

Life has become more difficult for the brothers since their father left.

The pension issued by the army was quickly exhausted. In order to raise Gu Xiaochuan's huge medical expenses, Gu Ye sold their house in the sixth district and moved to the thirteenth district where the rent is cheap.

As for his mother... Ever since that incident happened when he was 13 years old, Gu Ye rarely saw her again.

At this time, she should be her rich wife in District [-].

Gu Ye opened the window and lay on his back on the bed, feeling the breeze blowing from the window. When he closed his eyes, what appeared in his mind was the earth-shattering explosion, and Captain Aoting's shocked and unwilling eyes before his death.

Gu Ye came from rebirth, and according to his rebirth, half a year has passed since his rebirth.

In that life, Gu Xiaochuan stopped the medicine in the second month after his father died, failed to get treatment, and completely closed his eyes on his 12th birthday.

Before he died, he was still tightly holding on to Gu Ye's hand. His skinny hand, which looked like a skeleton, seemed to hold a life-saving straw, but this straw failed to save his life in the end.

After Xiao Chuan's death, Gu Ye lived alone in the thirteenth district. After a year, the house was taken back by the landlord, and he finally lost his home.

In other words, since the moment Xiao Chuan died, Gu Ye has no home.

Later, Gu Ye was accepted by a group of interstellar troops from Sakan, left Blue Star to wander in the vast sea of ​​stars, and became the youngest member of the regiment. With his outstanding learning ability and means, he finally became a member of the eradication regiment four years later. Longer than the second core.

Until that day, the Corps was betrayed by members of the Corps when it was on a mission, and the fleet of the hostile Corps surrounded them. Everything stopped abruptly after the bombardment and explosion like rain, and turned into fragments of dust floating quietly in the vast universe.

At the same moment, in this time and space, Gu Ye, who should have fainted from grief because of his father's sacrifice, opened his eyes, and the soul from five years later woke up, and the gentle and smiling Gu Ye , also completely disappeared.

He doesn't care what Xiao Chuan thinks of this brother who has changed so much overnight, he only cares about whether he can prolong Xiao Chuan's short life, and then some more.

Four years of living in the flames of war caused Gu Ye's temperament to undergo an earth-shaking change. In the eyes of those around him, Gu Ye suddenly became cold and silent because he couldn't bear the shock of his father's death, so he became like this.

There was a photo on the small cabinet next to the bed. In the photo, a handsome man was holding two teenagers on one side and the other on the right. All three of them were grinning.

Gu Ye actually looks pretty when he smiles. He inherited his father's beautiful peach blossom eyes, which look like a crescent moon when they are bent, and the clear eyes seem to be filled with fine sunlight, and even the tear mole at the corner of the eye is vivid. When he got up, a small canine tooth was exposed in his grinning mouth, which added a bit of aura to him.

Gu Ye raised his hand to brush against the bright smiling self in the photo, and sighed almost inaudibly.

In the past six months, in order to collect money to treat Xiao Chuan's illness, Gu Ye tried every means, and finally set his sights on the life-and-death arena where the benefits are huge, but there are fatal dangers.

He looked down at his hands, thin and slender, with some damage at the joints, covered with dark red blood scabs, half a year of fighting had worn out a layer of hard calluses on these hands—it looked completely different. The hand of an 18-year-old boy.

The current Gu Ye is as cold as a piece of ice, but it is strange, as if a blazing flame is ignited in the ice, as if the slightest carelessness will burn him.

Gently caressed by the night breeze, Gu Ye finally turned over and lay on his side in the exhaustion after the fierce battle, closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

"Squeak—" the door of the compartment was pushed open by a thin and pale hand, and a small figure with a cane came in with difficulty and stopped by the side of the small bed.

It's Gu Xiaochuan.

Then under the bright moonlight, Gu Xiaochuan finally saw the whole picture of Gu Ye's upper body.

There were several purple bruises the size of an adult's fist on the back, some of which even showed a little blood, the chest and abdomen were also bruised and purple, and there was a palm-length knife mark on the chest, which had already scabbed, but one can imagine the tragic and painful experience at that time. dangerous.

The bandages wrapped around the wrists were still bleeding, and the knuckles and elbows were covered with new wounds.

Gu Xiaochuan opened his eyes wide, his eyes were sore, he stretched out his hand to touch, but withdrew his hand in an instant, fearing that touching the sleeping boy would hurt him.

He took out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket, as if it had been crumpled and unfolded countless times, the writing on it was no longer clear, and even the corners of the note were worn out with rough edges .

Gu Xiaochuan squeezed the note so hard that his knuckles turned white, and when he turned his eyes to the wound on Gu Ye's mouth and his exhausted face that could hardly be concealed in his sleep, he suddenly grabbed the entire note in his hand.

The moonlight slanted slightly, Gu Ye turned over, frowning, still breathing steadily and long.

Gu Xiaochuan leaned against the bed, put his pale cheek against Gu Ye's palm, feeling the warmth from him, but two lines of tears slipped down quietly.

After a long time, the sky lightened slightly.

Gu Xiaochuan leaned against Gu Ye and sat all night.

He looked up at the sky, and finally couldn't help touching the sleeping boy's face: "I'm sorry, brother..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand to turn on the communicator, expertly entered the string of numbers that had been entered, repeated and deleted countless times, and put it down after sending out a message. He took a deep look at Gu Ye, put on crutches as he did when he came here, and made no sound. walked out.

"Boom boom boom——"

A knock on the door woke up Gu Ye who was sleeping soundly. He rolled over and got out of bed. While putting on his shoes, he kicked a small ball of paper near his feet, picked it up and threw it into the trash can, and went to open the door.

"Xiaoye." Outside the door, a tall, fleshy-looking fat man was standing at the door, holding a small food box in his hand. Seeing Gu Ye open the door, he handed it over in a hurry: "This is what my dad asked me to bring." Come here, you and Xiao Chuan eat while it’s hot, don’t let it get cold.”

The boy outside the door is Li Songyuan, a child from the next door.

Regardless of past life or present life, the Li family has taken care of the two brothers a lot.

"Thank you uncle and aunt for me." Gu Ye nodded and took the food box, feeling a warm current in his heart: "I won't go to eat later, I have to take Xiao Chuan to the hospital for reexamination."

"Xiao Ye, have you... went to the thirteenth district again?" Li Songyuan glanced at the scar on the corner of Gu Ye's mouth and the bloody bandage on his wrist, and asked cautiously.
