Chapter 381: Encountering Someone Unexpected
Before Charles and Diana crossed over, Charles had a certain amount of research on the development of machine tools when he was a keyboard warrior, and Diana had involved machining when he studied artificial intelligence in his hometown.
Just as Diana stretched and opened the door to go back to her room to rest, Artoria and Mordred happened to be standing outside the door to open the door.
"Coming back?" Diana was a little surprised.
"I shouldn't have come back. Artoria replied solemnly.
Diana ignored her, flashed out of the room, and went back to her room.
"Why did you come back?" said Charles, who was also surprised that Artoria had returned from Avalon City tonight.
Artoria said, "The one who should have visited has already been visited, and what should be said has been said, so she has returned." ”
Charles smiled and said, "If you said that you came back because you missed me, I would be very happy." ”
Respond to him with a cold "hehe".
The night passed, and it was safe.
Early the next morning, Charles and his party dressed up and prepared to leave the hotel for this year's big prayer service.
Just when they came to the hall on the first floor, they found that there was a good show to watch.
A young man in fancy dress stood in the middle of the hall, and another boy in uniform, not much older than Charles, stood with his head bowed.
Diana and the others recognized at a glance that the man in fancy clothes was Auston I, whom they were very familiar with, and as for the one standing in front of him, Charles recognized him after thinking for two seconds.
"Adonis?" said Charles in a whisper of the name he had almost forgotten.
The people around him looked dazed, and only Linda was the first to react.
"The former lord of the Rhine?" asked Linda in surprise.
Charles nodded, he didn't expect that this guy who was cheated by himself, Momiji and Halkala in Corn City two years ago would actually appear here and now, and what surprised him the most was the uniform of the employees of the Super Blue Dragon Consortium that Adonis was wearing at this time.
Adonis was even more shocked than Charles when he saw Adonis appear in front of him, and his men who were chasing Adonis reported that Adonis had fallen into a river that flowed into the forest, but Adonis was not only not dead, but also had a relationship with the dragons.
"I sent the man who pursued you. Auston I said bluntly to Adonis.
Adonis did not show a surprised expression, apparently he had understood the reason for this, and he said, "I did something wrong, and I am sorry for Your Majesty." ”
At the same time, Charles and the other onlookers saw that Adonis had made a standard taxi seat.
"Stand up!" Auston I snapped at Adonis, "I told you before that you can't kneel at will. ”
Adonis subconsciously stood up immediately, his head down, his eyes red, and he shouted "Big Brother".
Auston I said to him: "If you want to take revenge on me, I will wait for you. If you know what you did wrong and are willing to change it and start over, I am waiting for you. ”
With that, he walked out of the hotel bypassing Adonis and boarding the carriage outside the door.
Adonis stood there with his head bowed, when Charles walked up to him and said, "I await your vengeance." ”
Adonis looked up in surprise to find that the person in front of him hadn't seen it.
Charles smiled, took out his mask and put it on, then ignored the stunned Adonis and turned to walk towards the hotel door.
Linda followed Charles, and she said to Adonis, "I hope you can apologize to the Rhine." ”
After she finished speaking, she ignored Adonis and walked with the others towards the outside of the hotel.
As Charles and the others were about to board the carriage that greeted them, Auston I suddenly leaned out of his carriage and shouted, "Charles, Diana, come and come with me." ”
Charles and Diana glanced at each other, and then boarded Auston I's carriage together.
This year's Great Prayer Service was not held during the day at the Cathedral of the Holy Hammer, but moved to an open field on the north side of the Hammer Lake.
In the carriage, Charles, Diana, and Auston I fell into a mysterious silence.
The carriage was luxurious, and the sound insulation was so good that you couldn't even hear the sound of horses' hooves outside the carriage.
The first to break this silence was Auston I, who whispered: "Always represent the requirements of the development of advanced productive forces." ”
The corners of Charles's mouth twitched, "Always represent the forward direction of advanced culture." ”
Diana pinched her brows, "Always represent the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people." ”
The code is right.
Then the air fell silent again.
Charles and Diana just looked at Auston I quietly, and Auston I looked at the two of them in the same way.
"What year did you two come over?" or Alston I broke the slightly eerie silence.
"In 2017. Charles said.
"Hehe......" Diana continued to keep her actual age a secret.
"Two years before me. Alston I said to Charles.
Then Charles asked him, "How much is your QQ number?"
Auston I was stunned, "Why do you ask me Q?"
Charles went on to ask, "Has Station A gone out of business?"
Auston I was stunned again, "Kuaishou Daddy's milk is back." ”
Finally, Charles asked, "Have you ever heard of the xxxx hot pot restaurant fire in xx place on xx month xx in 2017?"
Auston I thought back for a moment and said: "I have a bit of an impression, I remember that there was a heated discussion on the Internet for a while, it seems that the person who lost the gambling money set fire to the store when he asked the boss for money, and several people died. I only remember that two people smashed open the glass on the street to save people, one of them was killed by a pressure cooker that blew up when the gas tank exploded, and the little girl he was holding was not seriously injured, and later recognized as a martyr or something. ”
"It's good that she's fine, at least another one can be saved. Charles sighed, then pointed to himself and said, "The other one who smashed the glass was me." ”
Auston I sighed, "You are also a good man, and you have a good reward." ”
"Good newspaper [foul language]!" said Charles, his face darkened.
"I'm sorry. Remembering what happened to the other party's family, Auston I hurriedly apologized to Charles.
"Forget it. Charles didn't bother about that, he grabbed Diana's hand and patted it gently.
"What's wrong?" asked Auston I, looking at Diana, whose face was gloomy.
Charles smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that you and I are from the same world, and she is from another world." ”
Auston I's eyes widened and he asked incredulously, "Is there a third world?"
"I'm afraid it's more than that. "I've heard the saying that the world is a place of refuge. ”
Auston I thought about it with a frown, and said: "It makes sense, it is very difficult for multiple intelligent races to evolve and reproduce on the same continent, and it is difficult for other races to start like Neanderthals. ”
The carriage soon reached its destination, and the conversation in the carriage stopped as it stopped.
Auston I left the carriage first and closed the door. There was no special expression on his face, as if he was just chatting with his future brother-in-law in the car.
Only Charles and Diana were left in the carriage.
Charles reached over and grabbed Diana's shoulder, and he could feel Diana tremble a little.
"If you're not feeling well, you can talk to me. Charles said softly.
Charles came to this world after dying once, and before he died, he saw the fire on his clothes, so he was very calm about coming to this world, and at the same time he was a little happy in his heart. He misses his hometown very much, but he already has the idea of parting in his heart.
And Diana is different from Charles, Diana is a child who came into this world because of an accident after going out, homesickness and finding a way home are her instinctive reactions, and this strong homesickness makes her feel extremely lonely in this world. The situation was a little better after Charles's appearance, giving her someone to talk to.
It's just that today Auston I appeared, although he was aware of it and not too surprised, he was still Charles's "hometown", which made Diana feel alone again.
"Thank you. Diana gently patted Charles' hand on her shoulder.
A moment later, the door opened, and the two men in the carriage walked out as if nothing was right.
