Chapter 493: This Day... It's not too far away
"This ..... Is it a dream? ”
Madeleine looked at everything in front of her in disbelief, from the beginning when the other party opened the space door out of thin air, to the outer space world that seemed to appear later, the alien orcs.
The most incredible thing is that the other party shows the knowledge in the technology tree....
Biological and energy mutations, the decomposition of genetic codes, the answers that I couldn't find before are like essential courses in elementary school in this science and technology tree, just like the foundation of the foundation, and above that, the huge knowledge chain makes her extremely awe-inspiring and excited at the same time....
For people like them, the new knowledge is far more delicious than any kind of food in the world, and these things in front of them are tantamount to the dragon liver and phoenix marrow that can only be eaten in the fairy world in the eyes of ordinary people.....
She wanted to slap herself or pinch herself countless times to see if this was a wonderful dream, but she was reluctant, for fear that if she really slapped her, everything in front of her would turn to ashes, and she would wake up and face the empty laboratory....
"Is this old woman alright?" In the satellite base, the others were sitting on the side knocking melon seeds, and Wang Goudan said curiously: "I've been there in a daze for an afternoon.....
"You're also a college student, can't you understand this feeling of thirst for knowledge?" The little cabbage on the side said disdainfully.
"I don't understand!" Wang Goudan said righteously: "From the time I was in elementary school until I was admitted to the normal school, this dog egg has changed a lot, but a heart that doesn't want to study has never changed!" ”
Everyone: "........."
"Is this true?"
I don't know how long it took, everyone played mahjong more than a hundred rounds, and Madeleine barely pulled out of the things displayed by the technology tree species, she silently touched the gurgling belly, obviously if it wasn't for the hunger, everyone might have to play dozens of rounds of mahjong....
"Is it true that you really don't have an answer yourself?" Alice asked with a smile.
Madeleine was stunned, and then showed the most joyful smile: "Yes....."
These things can't be made up, and the equations of various technologies in them are extremely sophisticated, as a top biologist, she can't find the slightest fault....
Neither is it right.....
Madeleine smiled bitterly, seeing this huge knowledge base, where can she still be called the top two words? I'm afraid it's only a beginner's apprentice....
At the thought of this, her originally excited expression became more and more bitter, and tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes.
Seeing each other's appearance, a group of people were stunned, including Alice, who was a little curious, because the sadness of the other party was very real.....
"Why are you sad?" Alice asked.
"You..... Why didn't you find me sooner? Madeleine sat down on the ground almost weakly, like a little girl who had lost her most beloved player, and almost cried: "With so much stuff and so much knowledge, where do I have enough time?" ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, the other party cried so sadly, it was actually because there was not enough time to absorb that knowledge!
For a while, a strong feeling came to my heart, including the thickest-skinned king dog, who was inexplicably quiet....
Alice looked at Madeleine blankly, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, to be honest, she sometimes envied these scientists who were devoted to research, as if they would never feel empty and bored in their lives.... I will always sigh that there is not enough time.....
In the Dead Realm, the only ones who won't be driven crazy by the long years are the former scientists!
Sometimes I suddenly feel that it makes sense to persuade people to read more?
-----------------------------------------------------
After Madeleine was brought into the New Territories, Joseph Sr. stayed behind to prepare for the aftermath, as a guy who was desperate to say goodbye to this world, he naturally had to deal with the aftermath....
The little cabbage once told him that he could keep his body, but he didn't have any nostalgia at all, what was he missing? All the relatives are dead, do you remember the cheating wife or the son who has been raised for more than ten years before he knows that he is not his own seed?
After coming out of the institute, he took a taxi and headed for the city hall, he had some things to explain clearly, at least not to let his departure have too much turmoil.
Now for him, the only thing that is still a little nostalgic is this Houston that he has been fighting for for many years.....
Morey, who was in the office, was first startled when he heard that old Joseph was coming in his direction, and then asked his secretary to cancel all his itinerary for this afternoon.
He also wanted to know the reason why this old opponent suddenly returned but gave up the election, and he was also curious about the other party's purpose at this time.....
He didn't have to wait long, the traffic in Houston was already good, and soon he watched through the office window as the old man who made him jealous walked in.
Along the way, many grassroots employees greeted Joseph Sr. respectfully, and judging from the sincerity of their faces, it was obvious that they all respected the former mayor very much, at least they had not felt this respect in the past three years in office....
Maybe it's because they cut their year-end bonus?
"Long time no see, Mr. Joseph!"
When the two met, Morey used a very cliché opening line.
Old Joseph smiled gently, and looked at the office with some emotion, the furnishings were completely different from when he was there before, obviously the other party's taste was completely different from his own....
Seeing this completely different office decoration, Joseph Sr. suddenly felt that the city had less contact with him at the last time.
"Do you have time to talk?" Old Joseph asked gently.
"Of course!" Morey spread his hands, he still had to give enough respect to this senior, after all, he was almost squeezed off the stage by the other party.
"I'm going to die......" After the two of them sat down, Joseph Sr.'s first sentence made Morey almost jump again.
"You.... What do you say? Morey was stunned.
"I'm terminally ill and don't have much time to live, and that's how I got the notification...... "Old Joseph said calmly.
I see.....
Morey suddenly realized, all the incomprehensible contradictions were explained in an instant, an old man who was finally about to reach the second spring of his career suddenly received a terminal illness notice, and it was reasonable to be missing for two days to ease his mood and finally choose to withdraw from the election....
"There is a lawyer in my gang, named John, who is a very good young man, and he has a lot of credit for having such a big advantage in this election, I want to recommend him to you....."
Morey was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the other party with some complicated feelings, he believed that the other party was not lying, that young man named John should indeed be very capable, and he recommended the other party to himself before he died, I am afraid that he did not want to live up to the young man's efforts.
Be yourself, under the blow of this terminal illness, I'm afraid it's already good if you don't retaliate against society, and there are really a few people who can afford to repay favors before they die....
"Okay..... I'm missing a position here for the position of administrative secretary, and if he is as good as you say, my family will even consider supporting him in the election....."
A very empty promise, the position of administrative secretary does not have much political weight, and as for the family's support for the election in the future, it is more like drawing a pie....
Joseph nodded, then added, "I hope the Fourth District will be up and running again.....
As soon as these words came out, Morey frowned, no one likes an ex to point fingers at his current administrative style, although the results of the past three years are indeed very bad, but he still only thinks that his own operation has made a mistake, and it does not mean that he will agree with the other party's political ideas....
"I'm just suggesting ....." Joseph Sr. said with a smile: "Houston has always been based on the medical industry, although many young people are keen on finance and IT nowadays, and look down on manufacturing, but some things, in this world, will never go out of style...."
"I'll think about it....." Morey nodded a little perfunctorily.
Old Joseph smiled, and didn't continue to force, he only came to fight for John and the city he had worked hard for, as for whether he could succeed or not, it was not up to him to control, he could also see that the other party had completely stopped treating himself as a threat after knowing that he had a terminal illness, and a person who was dying naturally did not have much weight.
"Alright, that's all I'm going to say, and I'm going to say goodbye to Mayor Morey....." Old Joseph stood up with a smile.
Morey was stunned for a moment, he thought that the other party would argue more with him, but he didn't expect to leave with just a few words, he wouldn't really take what he just said perfunctory seriously, right?
"What are your plans for the last days?" Morey asked curiously.
Old Joseph, who walked to the door, smiled slightly when he heard this: "Apply for euthanasia, die early and overlive ....."
Morey: "......."
Is it a delusion?
A trace of doubt inexplicably rose in Morey's heart, for some reason, he always felt that this terminally ill old man had a confidence in his eyes that he couldn't see through, and he also had a feeling that the other party would stand in a high position that he needed to look up to in the near future!
But then he immediately shook his head and threw this ridiculous idea out of his mind, and secretly said ridiculously, why would he feel this way about a bad old man who was about to die?
-----------------------------------------------
At this time, Joseph, who walked out of the mayor's office, walked easily, although it did not achieve the expected effect, but he was not in a hurry, because he knew that the current political situation in the world was only temporary, and when that alien civilization developed, this force would be exposed to the world sooner or later, and at that time, the whole world would undergo earth-shaking changes, and all forces would face a reshuffle!
And at that time, the city of Houston will become meaningless, and he can build a city or even a country that is many times better than Houston, and I believe that no one will choose to stay here at Morey by then.....
And this day, he believes, will not be too far away.......
