Black Sky

For people in Fimu City, this winter is very special.

Because of the disaster, December 27th is set as a global anniversary every year. It is the first time in 5714 and the second time this year.According to the regulations, there will be a three-day holiday.Of course, this is only for most people.For the military, the government of the general, and the people in the security building, these three days mean--

Meeting, meeting, and meeting.

Participants include top-level decision makers from the three parties, members of the summit think tank, and experts from major research institutes on the planet. Every year, a city is selected as the meeting place. The discussion includes military, policy, economic, and cultural issues in the city's radiation area.

The place chosen this year is Fiem City.

On the 26th, three thousand air and land shuttles landed on the apron of Feimu City, immediately changed to land mode, and drove strictly into the central city along the road into the city. The participants stayed near the conference center.

In the past few days, you can see straight guards on every street in the main city of Feimu, one every 100 meters, wearing a uniform with waist and legs, wearing boots, like a sharp blade to gather cold light.

They only care about safety and do not interfere with people's daily travel.

Therefore, the liveliness of Feimu City in the past few days has not decreased. Except for the designated conference center area, other places have begun to decorate the anniversary decorations, and the holiday atmosphere is extremely strong.

"It's not that I said, set off by the excitement, our area is the central conference area, it looks like the central cemetery of Feimu City." Shao Heng couldn't help complaining when he came to report to Chuss on the work of the security forces.

"You have said this five times." Truth replied as he handed him the document to sign.

"Hey—it really doesn't fit in."

Shao Heng shook his head and finished complaining. He supported the desk with both hands and looked around at random. Finally, his gaze fell on a pot of green plants at the corner of the desk. He had nothing to do with his hands and picked up the leaves. He asked casually: "What is this?"

Truth paused with his signed hand, glanced at it, and said calmly, "Catnip."

Shao Heng let out an "Oh" without noticing his expression, and continued: "It looks refreshing, why didn't I put it on my desk? Only the chief executive's office has it? This hotel puts green plants in different grades. , The differential treatment is too obvious?"

"It's not set by the hotel." Truth said.

"Huh?" Shao Heng was taken aback, "Where did it come from?"

Chus glanced at the pot of lush green leaves expressionlessly, "Sae Young bought it."

Shao Heng was taken aback, and subconsciously looked around, "Mr. Yang is here? Isn't their training camp going to be late?"

Truss replied in a calm and natural tone while looking back at the documents, "I used to be forced to buy and sell in my office. I came to a meeting this time. I don’t know who was free when I was packing things. I took this with me. shuttle."

Shao Heng thought about the fine-grained personalities of the secretaries in the Fifth Office, and felt that he could indeed do such things.But the point is not this, the point is...

"What did Mr. Yang buy catnip for?" Shao Heng thought this was a miraculous thing, after all, Chu Si didn't keep cats either.

Yeah, what are you doing?

When Saer Young put the catnip on his desk, Chu Si also froze for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Why are you buying this?"

Then, Mr. Yang, who is a must-have, returned what Truth himself had said back to him intact, "Hey boyfriend."

Truth: "..."

But it's fine to talk about this in private, can you talk to Shao Heng?Obviously not.So Chu Si pretended to be deaf and dumb. When he didn't hear him, he changed the subject and said, "I heard that Old Man Shao wants to retire?"

"..." Shao Hengxin said that your topic has turned too obvious, but after all, it is the boss, who is not good, so he pinched his nose and followed the words, "Yes, but listening to Miller said, the hospital was thinking about it. He has to be hired back after he has retired. I guess he won’t have to rest in a few years. Fortunately, he is still in good health. He sat down with a shuttle for four hours today and did not see any discomfort."

Truth nodded.

Shao Heng saw that he had not finished reading the two documents, so he simply sat down on the guest sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window, picked up a book on the armrest and looked at it, ""Never Land"?"

He turned over two pages casually, "God and ghost, poetry story? Do you still read this sir?"

Truth reminded without looking up: "Look at the author before speaking."

Shao Heng turned back to the cover, "Este Kabel? Is that the lady I know about Kabel?"

"if not?"

"I have only read her research work on intelligent systems. I don't know she has published this kind of work."

"Nor," Chu Si said, "I have this book bound."

When Esther Kabel was transferred out of the sterile ward, he left the pile of paper on the window sill and did not take it away. Later, it was transferred to Truss.

For a while, she often stayed in Jiang Qi's ward, and Chu Si asked her once when she ran into it, "Why don't you finish writing?"

Esther replied very headstrongly, saying that it was only after she finished writing that she realized that her memory was okay. These things shouldn't be forgotten, so those papers are no longer available.

In view of the weird personality of this group of people doing research, they often think of it. Truss decided to save the paper for her, and because the loose paper is easy to miss and lose, he simply asked someone to bind it into a booklet. Lest Ms. Carbell suddenly repented one day and felt that her memory was too bad.

Shao Heng was about to turn two more pages, but Yu Guang caught a glimpse of outside the French windows, on the avenue leading to the Convention Center, a team of shuttles painted with the logo of "United Elite Training Camp" was coming here, "Huh? Mr. seems to be here."

Chus raised his eyebrows, his face calmly "um", and then quickly signed the last document, and said to Shao Heng: "After signing, there is nothing wrong with me."

Shao Heng: "..."

Seeing his complicated expression, Chief Chu reluctantly touched his conscience and reluctantly introspected himself. He felt that his tone of voice just now seemed a bit unsympathetic, as if he was walking away.So he paused, and added, "As usual, there is half a day for free activities after 5 o'clock in the afternoon. You can take Mr. Shao out for a walk. Now there is half an hour before 5 o'clock. Why go back and arrange it?"

Shao Heng: "..." I can't tell you if you drove people away in another way?

But after all, he wasn't like Zild Fong's club, and he wouldn't make himself boring at this time, so he immediately followed and left the office with the documents.

Fifteen minutes later, there was a knock on the door of Truth's office. He knocked casually and knew who was coming.

Sure enough, Sae Young's voice rang outside the door, "Sir, I'm here to report on the training of the team members in the Security Building."

Chu Si asked who to lie to him, but he said, "Come in,"

The door opened and closed, and Sae Young had already taken off his gloves and walked to the desk, leaned over and kissed Truss, "I'm a bit late, are you finished?"

"Just blasted away Shao Heng." Truth glanced at his brain and said, "It's almost done."

"Then go."

Truth was taken aback, "Where are we going?"

Sae Young stretched out his hand at him and said with a smile, "Can I invite my chief to go out for dinner and make an appointment by the way?"

When Chu Si was about to open his mouth, Sae Young raised his hand to stop it, "Wait a minute dear--"

"how?"

Saer Young picked up the pot of catnip and shook it in front of Chus's nose, "Smell it before answering."

Truth: "..." Are you crazy?

Seeing Truth’s inexplicable expression, Sae Young laughed and put down the catnip, “After a day of business affairs, the expression has been officialized. I will adjust it for you.”

After speaking, he lazily propped on the table, and asked with a smile: "Go?"

Chus pushed Guangnao, nodded and stood up to get his coat, "Go."

As usual, the formal meeting lasted from the 27th to the 29th.But on the 26th, after all the preparations for the meeting have been done and the affairs of the day have been processed, there will be half a day of activity time, which is equivalent to a half-day holiday for all participants.

Of course, this half day is for people like Chu Si and others who are involved in official duties. The freedom of other participants is actually much greater. For example, research experts like Jiang Qi are not restricted by official duties and just settled in the hotel. Okay, I was taken out by the reception staff.

Before leaving, Jiang Qi came to Chu Si's office to sway around, saying to his son to condolences. In fact, he was sitting on the sofa and admiring his son's busy schedule, and then listening to Chu. Si said a bunch of nonsense to various people without blinking, and then left.

In other words, he just came to watch the excitement.

When Jiang Qi and his group of researchers were free to move outside for almost a day, Chu Si and Sae Yang had just been able to go out.

Before going out, they also wrangled with the guard captain Roger, because they didn't want to bring too many guards.The final result of the wrangling was that Truth simply found a bottle of skin shaping agent and adjusted both himself and Sae Young.

The appearance is modified so that it is not easy to be recognized outside.

Finally, while Roger was still insisting, Sae Young gave him a knowing blow: "To be honest, two guards are still ten guards, or even fifty guards. The difference is actually not that big. What happened? I suspect we saved them."

Roger: "..."

Before the captain of the guard rushed over, Chu Si dragged Sae Young away.

"Don't be provocative," Chus said as he sat on the private shuttle.

Sae Young started the shuttle and said while locating the destination, "Am I provoking?"

Truth: "...when I didn't say it." He actually knew that Sae Young was definitely not intentional at the time, because he said it very calmly.

"Am I wrong?"

Truth thought about Roger's aggrieved face, and smiled: "No, in fact I think so too."

Sae Young raised his eyebrows with satisfaction.

The shuttle car drove into the road and gradually accelerated. Truth asked, "Where are we going?"

"Butterfly Island."

Butterfly Island is close to Feimu City, and it only takes more than half an hour for the shuttle to pass.Truth was very satisfied with this destination. Perhaps he stayed in the chaotic West West City when he was a child, and when he grew older he always lived close to the center of the regime. The comfortable, slow-paced town like Butterfly Island is the best for him. The adjustment.

What's more, there is also the Moncaminfi restaurant on Butterfly Island, and he really wants to go again.

When Saer Young drove the shuttle directly to the parking lot of Starry Night Boulevard, Truth felt that the tacit understanding between the two of them was really frightening.

This time, the Avenue of Stars and Nights is much more lively than the last time. Maybe it's the time to get off work and tomorrow is a holiday. Maybe the tripartite federation chooses to be in Feimu City, which drives the traffic here.

When they got out of the car, the sky was already dark, and the shops on both sides of the street were lit up, mostly in a relaxing warm yellow, which looked lively and warm.

The temperature on Butterfly Island is lower than that in the center of Feimu City, and there is a deep winter atmosphere. Trus opened his mouth and a thin mist was trapped in front of his nose, "Go to Moncaminfi?"

Sae Young let out a "um", and after looking at Moncaminfi who was not far away, he added, "If there is a seat."

"I knew I would book a seat first." Truth said.

"If I remember correctly, you didn't plan to date me more than half an hour ago. I knew where it came from." Sae Young looked at him with his chin raised slightly.

Chus looked at him amusedly, then waved at him, motioned him to stop holding his chin, and come over a little bit.

Sae Young raised his eyebrows and lowered his head slightly, and Chus pulled off his scarf and kissed the corner of his mouth.Then he closed the car door behind him and took the lead to walk across the street. After two steps, Sae Young followed him and walked side by side.

In this kind of place, everyone's rhythm will become a little slow, walking like a walk, speaking in a leisurely tone, not rushing.The people on the street were like this, and they brought Truth and Sae Young unconsciously to slow down, as if hanging out.

The weather is very cold, everyone is wearing coats and scarves, in the white mist, talking and laughing intimately with people around them, no one pays too much attention to who is doing what others are doing.

But even so, Truth was caught by the two people in front.

"What's the matter?" Sae Young was taken aback when he saw him, and then followed his gaze--

Seeing Jiang Qi and Este turning from the front corner, they were walking side by side in the direction of Moncaminfi.Because of the obstruction of the flow of people, they didn't seem to notice Chus and Sae Young walking here, but even if they caught a glimpse, they might not be able to react immediately. After all, they used skin plasticizer to make fine adjustments.

But in fact, Truth and Sae Young are not far away from them, only a few steps behind them, and can even hear what Esther said.

"I haven't been here for a long time, but today is a bit unexpectedly lively. I don't know if I can sit in the place I used to sit in." Esther turned to Jiang Qi and said, "Quickly tell me you haven't been here afterwards. Right?"

Jiang Qi tilted his head to look at her for a while, and said, "Yeah", "No."

He wore a coat and was tall and straight. When he spoke, there was also a thin white mist in front of him, almost exactly the same as when he passed by the orphanage.It seems that he is still in his prime, and the road behind is still very long.

The hospital has issued the results of the examination. The data on all aspects of the people who survived by chance is lower than that of ordinary people, which means that their remaining life span is very unstable, maybe only ten or twenty years.

For a long time, Chu Si was very concerned about this result. On the contrary, Jiang Qi and Esther were very open-minded. They even comforted Chu Si in turn, allowing him to gradually adapt and accept the result.

They never see the worries about this in them, and more often they always look like they enjoy the ease of life.

Just like it is now, smiling gently and discussing dinner.

Esther seemed to be relieved when he heard Jiang Qi’s answer, “That’s great, remember? I mentioned to you that Moncaminfi has another name.”

"Remember, you said that the name is a bit long."

Esther laughed. "Yes, I'll tell you later."

Chus walked behind him not far and near, and after listening, he turned his head and whispered at Sae Young, "It's all nonsense from beginning to end."

Sae Young couldn't help laughing, "My dear, anyone can say that, but you..."

Chus glanced at him, then lifted his chin at the restaurant opposite Moncuminfi, "Forget it, don't mess with it, how about going to the opposite restaurant?"

Sae Young shrugs his shoulders and expresses his freedom.

As he was crossing the street, Chus glanced back at Moncaminfi.

Jiang Qi didn’t tell the truth just now. Not only did he come to Moncaminfi many times, but he also sat in the old position that Esther said every time. The so-called "another long name" on the wall was him. I must have seen it countless times.

He followed Esther's words and denied, probably just trying to protect her excitement and expectation.

Behind the glass door of the restaurant, Jiang Qi and Esther came in and said a few words to the waiter, and then they were led to the innermost position near the floor-to-ceiling windows as they wished.

Truth retracted his gaze and entered the new restaurant with Sae Young.

Although the layout of this restaurant is not as unique as Moncaminfi, it is very private. It sets up separate compartments. Once the sliding door is closed, other people can be screened out.

The layout of the compartment is very homely. The chair is a soft chair with high back armrests, the corner has a warm yellow floor lamp, the heavy curtain is hooked up diagonally, and there is a pot of tuberose beside the window.

This kind of environment is too easy for people to think of words such as "warm" and "quiet", so the whole person becomes relaxed or even lazy.

Halfway through the meal, there was a touch of white in the aftermath of Chus.

He turned his head and looked out the window, and it was finally snowing on the cold sky for more than half a month, quietly and sprinkling.The people on the street stopped, subconsciously stretched out their hands to pick them up, then smiled and turned their heads and said something to the people around them.

The background for them is the large and bright windows of the shops on the street, many of which are painted with similar paintings and the same words——

I love you very much.

On this anniversary last year, perhaps it was a reminder of the sense of loneliness that was caught off guard when the disaster came. Many people spoke this word to those around them in unison when the bell rang on the anniversary.Relatives, friends, and lovers were infected one by one, and after continuous fermentation, it became the slogan of this anniversary in the end.

Before this year’s memorial day, such decorations and arrangements were made early everywhere. Thousands of cities and countless criss-cross streets were embellished with affection and affection, so that the whole world became warm and moving. stand up……

A few young people didn't know what they said, laughing and chasing past the window.

After a while, a pair of old people also supported each other in the fine snow, slowly passing by the window.

With a move of his eyes, Chu Si looked at Sae Young, and suddenly asked without end: "Will you feel uncomfortable to clear out those experimental organizations?"

After all, for him, he has been a successful experimenter since he has the memory. He has never experienced the taste of being chased by time. Now he suddenly fell back into the world of ordinary people, and I wonder if there will be a little regret.

Sae Young stopped holding the cup in his hand, and then, those nice eyes were bent, and the warm light of a floor lamp was in their eyes.He touched Chus's glass and said, "No, I'm actually very happy."

I am very happy to grow old with you.In this way, when turning into a tomb, you can say to you: I love you, and my life is as long.

Truth suddenly understood the meaning of Esther's words—some things would be remembered even without pen and paper.

Such as "I love you".

There are always thousands of ways to express this sentence, every day, every moment, every moment, in every different corner——

It's like Truth replied: "I will get old later..."

As Sae Young said: "I'm very happy."

It's like a young couple hugging on a street corner; while Esther is sitting in Moncamin Ferry, pointing to the sentence on the wall and telling Jiang Qi;

A little farther away, Shao Heng made tea for the old man, babbling to make him pay attention to his body; Admiral Medela communicated with his daughter;

On the other side of the planet, in the land base of the elite training camp, Tang and the others who were born and died laughed and clinked their glasses and feasted.

In the vast space, Carlos Black sat down by the bed, punching the picture of his wife and daughter on the bedside table and said: Good night, 29128th day, I still miss you.

...

The sun is still clean, and the galaxy is still bright.

The world is still moving forward slowly in the long and deep affection.

So time rushes to witness the eternity and immortality of the world over the long years.
