Don't Pick Up Boyfriends From the Trash Bin

Chapter 214 - Battle Royale: Survival of the Jedi (IV)

The two of them chose a direction and set off on their way.

At first, Bai Anyi was a little wary of the other “Bai Anyi”.

There is always a fear of “mirror images”, especially when they come out of the mirror and come to him.

But as the figure of “Bai Anyi” faded away, he became worried.

Bai Anyi asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

” Bai Anyi” looked at her hands, which were becoming transparent, and said to herself, “One hour and ten minutes. A little longer than the last time.”

Bai Anyi was shocked: “You’ve been out?”

” Bai Anyi” hmmed and said frankly, “I was out for fifty minutes the day you awakened your powers.”

Bai Anyi remembers having her body measured for globulin A on the sly after she showed signs of abnormalities.

The conclusion he came to nearly put him on the spot.

He wanted to tell Jiao Qingguang right away that he had no other family, and Jiao Qingguang was the closest person to him.

But it was getting late, and Bai Anyi remembered that Jiao Qingguang had a report to deliver, and that tonight was a dead line.

…… Then let’s talk about it tomorrow.

” Bai Anyi” paralleled him and said, “You didn’t sleep very well that day, you took a bath and then took your medicine before going to sleep.”

Bai Anyi remembers that her own separate dormitory had an en-suite bathroom, with a small shower and toilet inside, and a sink and a huge mirror outside.

It dawned on him, “…… is that time ……”

” Bai Anyi” asks rhetorically, “Would you be afraid?”

Bai Anyi shook his head, “No.”

Bai Anyi is a scholarly, romantic and sensible man, and since the other man has not harmed himself after awakening his powers, he will not add to his worries by thinking “what if he hurts himself”.

” Bai Anyi” laughed and said, “Not even angry? I’ve seen your body.”

Bai Anyi’s face immediately reddened: “You ……”

” Bai Anyi” has tried Bai Anyi’s bottom line, and seeing his look of consternation, he duly withdraws his joke: “Sorry, I was abrupt.”

”Neither.” Bai Anyi walked slowly with her head down, taming, “This body is mine as well as yours. It’s nothing for you to look at. …… And, I have you to thank for it.”

”Thanks for what?”

”Your personality, will, and physical qualities should be much stronger than mine ……” Bai Anyi said, “I don’t know much about psychology, but I do have a little knowledge about dual personalities. Generally speaking, the two personalities are independent of each other and are not aware of each other’s existence; but you have always known about me, yet you have not come to steal the master personality status within your body ……”

” Bai Anyi” lowers her head and smiles brightly.

Again, a bow of the head, one tamed, but the other is a motionless retreat.

He said, “I thought you were very territorial, judging by your attitude to ‘masterminds’.”

Bai Anyi said, “I do not like it when people offend my personal rights without permission. But I am you and you are me, and you have helped me a lot, so …… I don’t mind.”

” Bai Anyi” moved demurely to gather her hands behind her back, pressing the back hem of her white coat, which had been lifted by the desert wind, and smilingly said, “So, that’s my reason too.”

Bai Anyi : “What’s the reason?”

” Bai Anyi” is blunt as hell, word for word: “It’s the reason I don’t grab your body, keep you inside me, do whatever I want to you, and make you cry and beg me to let you out.”

Bai Anyi, her face flushed and amused, stopped and asked, “You’ve thought about it?”

” Bai Anyi” smiled back, without a trace of heart: “No oh.”

Between the two conversations, ” Bai Anyi’s” body became a few shades more transparent.

When he saw that he could not support himself, he said, “I will disappear for a while. When you need me, find a way to create a mirror.”

Bai Anyi dutifully replied, “Yes.”

After ” Bai Anyi ” disappears, Bai Anyi trudges alone for ten miles and eventually stands panting by a small river.

Although they are conscious bodies, they will still have normal human cycles and will be tired, hungry and thirsty.

He faced the river and held his knees for a moment to catch his breath before a hand reached out from the side and handed him a towel, “Took you so long to call me, I thought you didn’t want me to come out.”

Bai Anyi took a breath and wiped the sweat from his face, “I want you to rest a little longer.”

” Bai Anyi” said, “I just have to disappear and look in the mirror again and I can come out. Besides, I won’t feel tired when I accompany you.”

Bai Anyi sitting on the floor: “Greasy talker.”

”The truth.”” Bai Anyi” sat down beside him, “Being a part of your body, being with you for almost twenty years, do you think, I would get bored?”

Bai Anyi was a little embarrassed by his blunt but unpredictable words, and said without words, “…… are you sleepy?”

”You sleep,”” Bai Anyi” said, “It’s been a hard day of running.”

Bai Anyi said, “No, not by the water. There might be a lot of people coming to squat by the water source ……”

” Bai Anyi”: “Don’t worry. I’m here.”

Bai Anyi was a little embarrassed, “But what will you do when I go to sleep? I’d better get up every hour and take a look at the water ……”

”No need.”

The “Bai Anyi” reached into his pocket, fished out a small round mirror knocked off the rear view mirror, stuck it in the dirt and made the gentlemanly gesture of “please”.

Bai Anyi stared at him, “You have a mirror?”

”There is.”” Bai Anyi” replied calmly, “Took it off a car before we drove the man away today.”

Bai Anyi : “So why ……”

” Bai Anyi” crouched down and looked at him levelly, “I just wanted to see if you would call me out.”

Bai Anyi was a little distressed and apologised, “It’s my fault.”

” Bai Anyi” was probably prepared to be blamed for not trusting him, but was not expecting an apology and was momentarily stunned: “You ……”

Bai Anyi says, “It is I who have not given you the assurance of feeling safe. But please believe me, I appreciate and need you. This need is not just in terms of personal security. It’s the first day I’ve met you and I’d like to talk to you more and get to know you better ……”

With that, he handed over a pointed branch he had picked up on the road, “Here you go.”

” Bai Anyi” took the branch and looked at the little scholar who reasoned with him with a soft gaze, “What is this?”

Bai Anyi said seriously, “I picked it up on the road and intended to use it for protection. Now you can have it.”

” Bai Anyi” almost laughed out loud, “What kind of protection does that provide?”

Bai Anyi is a bit embarrassed: “…… This, this is the last weapon I have. I can’t hold anything else. I’ll give this to you, and you trust me, can you.”

” Bai Anyi” stopped answering and pressed him to one side to sit under a tree, pressing down on his eyelids and half-commanding, “Sleep.”

Bai Anyi then dutifully went to sleep, quite relieved.

He has all the faults of someone who has been at school for a long time and has never been out in society, one of which is that once he trusts someone, he has no reservations about them.

I don’t know whether to laugh at his naivety or something else, but this problem still flares up intermittently after the Jiao Qingguang incident.

” Bai Anyi” sits quietly against his side, and within the mirror, two identical faces are reflected.

With himself around, he could be childish.

After a night’s rest, the pair got back on the road.

When “Bai Anyi” is switched to carry Bai Anyi on his back, all Bai Anyi has to do is hold the mirror and take a look at him as his form fades.

On the way, they talked a lot.

The more we talked and the more we learned, the more Bai Anyi realised that he and this personality were really two very different people.

”Bai Anyi” is physically close to an all-sport champion, agile, able to climb a tall tree and pick fruit in ten seconds, much more mature in his thinking, extremely quick to accept reality, no fluke, and not far behind him in academics, with studies in biology, dabbling in sky Wen and geology, and cooking, feeling head and shoulders above him in every way.

One day before going to sleep after a full meal, Bai Anyi lay down on the futon grass spread by “Bai Anyi” and could not help asking him, “Why did I split you?”

” Bai Anyi” was eating his leftover roast rabbit when he turned his head at the sound of his voice.

Bai Anyi quickly realised that this was not very polite and hastily remedied the situation, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to say you were a derivative of me ……”

Without waiting for him to finish his explanation, ” Bai Anyi” replied straight away, “Because you need me.”

For some reason, ” Bai Anyi” was always so honest with him, so honest that it made him blush.

” Bai Anyi” asks rhetorically, “Are there still questions on ……?”

Bai Anyi shakes his head.

” Bai Anyi” flicked the fire: “Then sleep.”

For a few days, they didn’t meet anyone except the psychic who could use bioelectricity.

Bai Anyi has no idea how big the world is, and he spends his days on the back of “Bai Anyi”, drawing simple maps, remembering the paths they have taken, and observing his surroundings.

For ease of address, Bai Anyi wanted to be called ” Bai Anyi” Bai, but was overruled by ” Bai Anyi”.

He said, “Call me Senior White.”

Bai Anyi wrapped her arms around his neck and called out to him, “Senior Bai.”

With the calling problem solved, they continued walking around the deserted island with only the two of them.

” Bai Anyi” had asked him, “This game, how do you want to play it?”

Bai Anyi said, “Let’s just go on, the two of us.”

” Bai Anyi” held up his glasses for a moment and teased, “Ah, my little pacifist. What would you do without me?”

Bai Anyi replied, “If there were no seniors, I would kill myself.”

” Bai Anyi” stopped talking and gazed into his eyes.

Bai Anyi let out a bitter laugh, “Are you wondering why I didn’t choose to die at the hands of that bioelectricity if I had to kill myself? …… I don’t want to die at the hands of anyone and become their points, experience value, or sin karma …… even though those who want to live won’t consider this as sin karma. …… I will not play this nasty game.”

Seeing that ” Bai Anyi” did not reply, Bai Anyi gave a self-deprecating smile, “I know, I’m too naive.”

”No.”” Bai Anyi” said, “That’s a good insistence.”

”But with you, it’s different again.” Bai Anyi says, “I want to live. Because as long as I’m here, you’re here.”

” Bai Anyi” smiled, “Then we’ll listen to our little brother. The two of us, let’s just go on. No more games.”

Their journey was a peaceful one.

Occasionally, Bai Anyi would wake up with a start and “Bai Anyi” would inform him, “Someone came during the night.”

After Bai Anyi tensed up, ” Bai Anyi” laughed again, “Don’t be afraid. It’s already been driven away by me.”

” Bai Anyi” loves to scare him like this and enjoys a little bit of his panic.

Bai Anyi is notoriously unpredictable, and he gets hit every time.

On their seventh day in this world, they came to a small wood when “Bai Anyi” suddenly “shushed” and stopped in his tracks.

Bai Anyi followed with bated breath.

” Bai Anyi” grimaced slightly, “Someone is following. Been following us for a kilometre.”

Bai Anyi was first nervous and then suspicious that he was cheating: “What then?”

” Bai Anyi” said, “You hide. I’ll go out and have a look.”

Bai Anyi is stuffed by ” Bai Anyi ” into the cavity of a giant tree that has been moth-eaten to the point of being hollowed out.

He reached out of the cave and touched Bai Anyi’s head: “Just a moment.”

Bai Anyi waited a full quarter of an hour.

He became more and more anxious and looked frequently at his watch.

For the first five minutes, he suspected it was a joke.

After five minutes, Bai Anyi couldn’t get any easier.

……” Bai Anyi” is not the kind of person who makes jokes without restraint.

There was a myriad of dust flying in front of her eyes, and Bai Anyi kept staring at the inexplicable flying dust in front of her in order to distract herself, thinking, what on earth is this?

A quarter of an hour later, footsteps sounded outside the tree cave.

Hope rose in Bai Anyi’s heart and she wanted to stick her head out to say hello and ask him to pull herself out.

…… He saw a pair of boots, cackling and crunching on the dry fallen leaves.

Those shoes do not belong to Bai Anyi.

The visitor, a man or woman unknown, was wearing the white trousers issued from the Surveillance Centre in uniform, and there were drops of liquid, falling from above and falling drop by drop as he walked.

Bai Anyi held his breath and cowered in the hole in the tree, covering his mouth and not daring to make a sound.

And the footsteps refused to let him go, pacing slowly, getting closer and closer to the hole in the tree.

Eventually, a smiling face, appeared outside the hole in the tree.
