Sure enough, Ryan didn't give up, and within two minutes he asked for a video call, and Ilan picked it up resignedly, Ryan's face was not good-looking: "Beauty, I haven't finished my words yet." ”

In normal times, if Ilan was so obviously perfunctory, and pretended to shirk the busy, and hung up his video, Ryan would have been annoyed. But Guan Li suspected that this girl was mentally healing, and after a conversation he had just had, he also felt very similar. The way she played was so weird that she couldn't even remember the name of a place if she went out to play in a strange place without making a rough plan in advance.

With this level of doubt, Ryan suppressed his straightness and continued the previous topic: "What are you busy with?" Isn't it just playing? You didn't say where your home was just now? When are you going back? ”

"Aegean, I'm looking at the return flight route from Mangu to Aegean, don't bother."

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Stupid people do things like grinding, I'll help you plan." "It's good that she is willing to go home, turn around and say to Guan Li, this brother is also pitiful, since he locked up Yilan for a month, it is like owing her a debt that cannot be repaid.

Ryan did things relatively quickly, and after a while, he discharged the transit route for Ilan, and the most labor-saving thing was of course to go to the main star of Edu to transfer to the main star of Tuduo, Ilan thanked him with a smile and hung up the video. Then I carefully studied and pondered, and discharged a flight line with a lot of transfer stations, the time arrangement is quite tight, that is, people are tired, there is a station to wait in the airport hall for three hours in the middle of the night, Ilan is not too hard, she doesn't want to go to the main star of Edu and the main star of Tudo.

Ilan was a little dazed after getting on the airship, and he was actually going back to Tudo. She thought that she would never go back for the rest of her life, she couldn't go back, and after she retired, she would buy a small farm in another star sector and settle down. But. As soon as her mind goes out of sorts, she's going back.

"Why?" She asked herself.

But it's just Ryan's urging? The answer is not so lightweight.

For the 150th anniversary of the orphanage? Not even more.

To remember your past? Yes and no.

To visit children who are doomed to drift like her? Perhaps.

For that impossible chance encounter in the vast sea of stars?

Yilan closed his eyes, and knew very well in his heart that in fact, it was August, and he would not meet him anywhere he went, and he should conduct mecha combat drills at the Feng'an base with his partner, and this course was taken every year in August and September. Rotate in Feng'an and Qiming two bases every year, I went to Qiming last year, and this year I should be in Feng'an.

She remembers it clearly.

So. She dared to take a walk in an impossible time, in an impossible place, to see the traces of her past life.

The place was a little close to his circle of life, and she would secretly hold a fantasy. A moment. She might have seen him as soon as she turned around. But that's a fantasy, she's sober, so she can do it like water.

She didn't want to go to the main star of Edu and the main star of Tudo, because those two places were closer to his circle of life, and because July was his holiday, maybe he would go home. Well, half a month ago, he passed through those two places.

She replied to Tudo when she couldn't touch him. But it is unacceptable that she and him are half a month apart from setting foot in the same airport.

Those imaginary stunned glances will not exist, and it is what she wants to never see.

But it was clear that there was a place where it was missed. It still makes her uncomfortable.

She was heartbroken after all.

The rest cabin was closed and cramped, and Ilan was immersed in grief for a long time. Ryan's video is here again.

"Beauty, have you boarded the airship?"

"Hmm." Ilan agreed softly, and pulled a smile away. Ryan is not a verbose person, and he contacted her again and again today, and Ilan understood that he probably didn't feel at ease when he saw her traveling alone with a girl's family.

"I'm going to Tudo in two days, so I can meet you while you're in transit, I remember you have four hours, right?"

Ilan paused slightly, and said truthfully, "Ryan, the route I took did not pass through the main star of Tudo. ”

"Huh?" Ryan was surprised, "And how did you get there?" ”

Ilan said one by one, and Ryan was stunned when he heard it: "Beauty, why do you go like this?" Do you know how much trouble this is? It took a little more time than the route I designed. ”

"I haven't been to these planets, so I can go around them while I'm in transit." Ilan was just making excuses, but after saying it, he really felt that he could do that.

"You're stupid, aren't you? What are you going to do with two or three hours of transit time? There are two stops at night, you are wandering outside, you are not afraid of others, others are afraid of you. You just stay in the airport and wait. Ryan said with a frown.

"I'm just thinking about it, if I'm short on time, I'll be waiting at the airport." Ilan laughed.

Ryan also wanted to criticize her stupid brain a few more times, but seeing that she was quite forced to laugh, she didn't say much, her route is to transfer a few more times, which is more cumbersome, but the safety is safe, this girl is probably ruthless at the base, and it is easy to come out once, and she can walk around vigorously.

"Tell me when you get there." He explained, seeing that Ilan nodded obediently, and hung up the video with confidence.

After Elan arrived in the Aegean, she thought that she would definitely not be in the mood to play again after going to the orphanage, so she rented a hovercar first, played around the planet for a day, and stayed at the hotel where she stayed last time.

Four years have passed, and the furnishings in the hotel room have not changed at all, and she has mixed feelings, and she really responds to one word, things are not people. Falling asleep was a problem at night without physical training, and she tossed and turned in bed for a long time before she could fall asleep.

Early the next morning, Elan drove to the orphanage. The commemoration was scheduled to start the morning after tomorrow, and she still had plenty of time, so it would have been okay to wait until the day after tomorrow, but she didn't want to go on the day of the event, she just wanted to go quietly.

There are no changes at the entrance to the orphanage, and the nameplate of "Aegean Children's Home" is still there. Ilan explained the situation to the welcoming robot, who guided her to a side road shaded by trees. It was turned into a temporary parking lot.

Ilan was surprised to find that there were many cars parked, and then he thought that the orphanage had been established for one hundred and fifty years. How many orphans have been sent out every year, and there may be people like her, who are always unable to come on the day of the commemoration for various reasons.

The dean received her.

The director of the orphanage has changed again, this time it is a middle-aged woman with a very cheerful personality, and she said straight to the point: "Miss Tong, hello." Check back and check it out. She used these two words back, which made Yilan stunned and had a sour nose.

The female dean stepped forward and hugged Ilan. Affectionately tapped her twice on the back.

"My surname is Ren, and I just transferred here not long ago. Recently, a lot of kids have come back, and I don't know them. You don't have to be restrained when you come back, you can look everywhere. The kids will love to see you. ”

Ilan listened stunned. Ban Yan said a soft "um".

Dean Ren smiled: "I received a donation a few days ago, child, thank you." ”

Yilan's expression was cowardly, and he said embarrassedly: "My ability is limited, just a small amount of money. ”

Dean Ren smiled heartily: "Silly boy, you have this heart is the most precious." She continued, "You know you better than I do here, and you'll be playing while the kids play." It's okay to chat with them, but not during their study time. I've got a big lounge for you. When you're tired, go inside and talk to each other, maybe you'll meet your old friends, and if you want to go, you can go out by yourself, you don't have to tell me, just treat this place as if you were home. Will you still be here on the day of the commemoration? ”

Ilan shook his head and said, "I'm a little short on time. ”

"It's okay, you can come whenever you want in the future." Dean Ren smiled disappreciatively.

Yilan got up and said hesitantly, "Dean Ren, I want to see the previous room, okay?" ”

Maybe this question has been raised by many people, Dean Ren did not hesitate at all, and said with a smile: "Of course, I have asked the children's opinions in advance, and they all agreed to let the big brothers and sisters in front come back to visit, do you remember which one you live in?" I'll let the child take you in. ”

"Turn right on the third floor, the one at the end of the hallway." Ilan was surprised that she remembered it clearly.

Dean Ren smiled: "This room is empty now, I'll take you there." ”

"When I came here a few years ago, there was a little girl in there, what happened to her?" Ilan asked hurriedly.

"She was taken back by her father a year ago."

Ilan smiled slightly, that girl was luckier than her.

Dean Ren took Yilan to the door of the room, helped her open the door, patted her on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Go in, remember to come out and close the door." ”

Ilan nodded.

Dean Ren looked at Yilan and said with a pun: "Kid, come out early, the scenery outside is better." Her smile was kind, and it made Elan feel warm.

Yilan chewed this sentence in his heart, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Got it." ”

After Dean Ren left, Ilan slowly looked at the room, even if there were no residents, the room was still very clean.

Almost instinctively, she walked to the edge of the small bed and sat down, the old wind chimes on the window were no longer there, probably too worn out to be used anymore, and Ilan was slightly regretful. Looking out of the window, the leaves at the top of the trees swayed gently in the wind, making a slight rustling sound.

She sat silently for a while, and even tried to lie down, but she could no longer find her original state of mind.

After so many years, she went to school and enlisted in the army, met many people, and there were too many things happening, some good and some bad, but she integrated into the outside world after all. Although he is still alone, he is no longer full of panic, at a loss, and at a loss.

Now she can feed and clothe herself every day, and she can squeeze out a little money to help others, and she has traveled to many planets. It's better than before, she said silently in her heart, pulling the corners of her mouth slightly.

She got up and flattened the bed, turned to look at the room again, stepped out and slammed the door shut.

Ilan sat on the lawn for a long time, watching a group of children giggle and play, and from time to time adults stopped to watch, but they were silent. If they meet eye contact, they will smile and nod their heads, but they will not introduce each other. Occasionally, one or two people hugged excitedly, apparently from childhood acquaintances.

In this way, a group of children are laughing, a dozen adults are standing or sitting, scattered around, some are chatting enthusiastically, some are silently watching, and the atmosphere is very casual and natural.

After the children were taken away by the robot nursery, the adults gradually left.

Ilan got up, bent down and patted the corner of her skirt, raised her head, and unexpectedly saw a person standing under a flower tree not far away, the silhouette was somewhat familiar, and the person was looking in the direction of the children's departure. (To be continued......)
