"It's been ten years, aren't you tired?" The elevator descended slowly, and through the panoramic glass window, Ye Lingli slowly looked at the huge underground world with a familiar and unfamiliar gaze.

The man next to him couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Ye Li, it was a little strange, he chuckled lightly and said, "What's wrong with you, haven't we all come over like this for so many years......"

Speaking of this, the man's voice suddenly stopped, then shook his head with a chuckle, and sighed: "No, I've been like this for so many years......"

The man didn't answer Ye Li's question, but changed the topic: "How is it, your life outside, okay?" ”

Ye Liqi smiled at first, then laughed out loud, looked into the distance through the glass, nodded vigorously, and said, "Very good, my life couldn't be better." ”

The man also smiled and nodded, "That's good." ”

Silence returned to the elevator again, neither of them spoke, and both lost their desire/desire to speak.

Soon, the elevator reached the bottom floor, and Ye Lili walked out behind the man.

Compared with the second district, the number of people in the third district has decreased significantly, and there are not many people who have been promoted to veterans in the novice area in previous years, not to mention that compared to the novice area, many veterans have failed to come back from many tasks......

Walking in the familiar corridor, Ye Liqi looked at the exact same metal floor, as well as the many expressionless old people in the past, almost none of them were familiar, and she almost forgot that she was one of them.

The old people are sensitive to the "taste" of the newcomers, and in their words, this is the "umami", which means that they are fresh, full of vitality and life.

Only people who can walk in the sun from time to time will have this "umami".

Ye Liqi was dressed in a strange costume, followed behind the man, and walked towards the man's own room, along the way, even if so few people walked back and forth, there was no one who did not look at her.

Smelling this smell that she hadn't smelled for a long time, Ye Lili couldn't help but close her eyes gently, and she couldn't help but think of the time she had spent here in those years.

Ye Liqi blinked, sat opposite the man, and slowly scanned the familiar and unfamiliar room.

Familiar because she used to live in such a standard room, strange because she had been away from here for too long.

Exhaling slightly, the man relaxed slightly, took off the black leather gloves in his hand, lazily threw them on the table between the two, and said, "There is nothing in this room, you can talk with confidence." ”

Ye Liqi smiled, the man glanced at Ye Lili, his eyes changed, and he asked with interest: "You came back with great fanfare this time, so that everyone above knew that you came to kick the hall, what's the matter?" ”

With a laugh, Ye Liqi clenched her right hand into a fist, put it to her mouth and coughed lightly, she said, "There is indeed something." After saying that, he shut up, but he did not respond to the man's tentative words earlier.

The man's eyes changed slightly, his expression was a little serious, and his voice couldn't help but be lowered, sounding a little dangerous: "Don't tell me you're really here to kick the gym." ”

Ye Liqi didn't answer the man's words, and even staggered his eyes from the man, looking at the crystal table on the side.

The crystal table is also the only thing in this room that can make people feel that they still have a little popularity, and the photos in it are exactly what the man looked like when he was young, estimated to be five or six years ago, dressed in black, but his face was full of happy smiles, sitting on the big rock in front of the waterfall, and the splash from the waterfall behind him splashed mercilessly on his face, but it did not affect his happy mood at all.

After Ye Liqi saw the crystal table clearly, his eyes couldn't help but change slightly, and even the expression on his face softened a little.

"Do you still have this picture?" Ye Li's voice was a little soft, as if it came from a long distance.

The man's gaze also turned over, and after seeing clearly what Ye Liqi said, a touch of unnaturalness flashed on his face, and his voice was not as righteous as just now: "I just didn't have time to clean it up, and I didn't keep ......it on purpose."

Ye Liqi smiled slightly, and neither of them spoke.

She still remembered that time the five of them went on a mission, that person was their instructor, and also the captain of that mission, after the mission, they looked embarrassed, afraid of being caught up by the enemy's pursuit dogs, so they could only find a nearby lake to deal with the blood on their bodies, but they didn't expect this lake to turn around and be a waterfall.

That is, in that photo, the tall waterfall behind the man.

The situation was like this, a few of them were cleaning up the traces and sweeping the tail here, and the person, that is, their instructor, called the helicopter at the base with the contact instrument, and then a few of them were left, some went to the lake to swim, and some were fighting with the people next to them, and she was sitting opposite the man, on the edge of the water, washing her blood-stained coat.

Later, I don't know what to say, everyone laughed, and the huge water flow from the waterfall smashed on the surface of the lake, and then steamed out fine water vapor, forming a bright rainbow in the air.

The other person didn't know what he remembered at the time, and the first and last two buttons of the contact device were pressed at the same time, and the photo was taken.

Later, when they returned to the base, the man passed the photo to himself, processed it and put it on his desktop......

Looking at this photo, Ye Liqi seemed to be able to think of them back then.

The five of them weren't the best friends, but they were the team with the best understanding in the fight, and at that time, she and the man and the other of them were all out of the surface mission, and the man was in charge of logistics, and the remaining one was technology.

The combination of five people has repeatedly broken the base record in just one or two years, and has completed a lot of difficult tasks, although they don't know what their real name is, and they are not the most trustworthy people of the other party, but on the battlefield, they are the people who know each other best.

And now, among the five people, that person died first, and then Ye Lili left the base due to a recurrence of an old injury, and the man stayed here all along.

"Have the two of them found a new combination?" Ye Liqi withdrew his gaze from the crystal table and asked casually.

But he didn't want to, the man suddenly snorted, and the voice was full of sarcasm.

"Who are you asking, aren't you and me left now?"

Ye Liqi looked at the man's lazy appearance, there was still a sneer on the corner of her mouth, she slowly frowned, and her expression was extremely serious: "What do you mean?" What is called only the two of us. ”

The man let out a long sigh, his expression natural and indifferent: "That's it, everyone else is dead, and the two of us are the living!" (To be continued.) )
