Lao Xu's Homecoming (2)

"Hey~"

"What's wrong?"

"Did you miss me?"

"Of course, always thinking. ”

The sporadic candle flames flickered, and the gentle warm light reflected on the faces of Lao Xu and Jiang Man. They looked at each other, and the air was filled with the smell of love.

It turned out that when Lao Xu hadn't arrived at the transfer station yet, Jiang Man had already arrived here early. She calculated the time of his arrival, and spent two hours in the kitchen making a table full of delicious dishes.

Lao Xu was very distressed when he saw this table of good dishes. He held Jiang Man's hand and said affectionately: "Manman, you have worked hard. ”

Hearing Lao Xu's words, Jiang Man smiled with satisfaction, she also put her hand on his hand, and said with tears in her eyes: "It's not hard, as long as I cook you a meal and eat quietly with you, I will ......"

"Oh, why are you crying? My darling, don't cry. Lao Xu picked up the handkerchief, gently tapped the corner of Jiang Man's eyes, and then stroked her cheek very naturally.

Having a meal quietly with her lover has become Jiang Man's greatest wish.

She wasn't allowed to come to the transit station, as it was their last line of defense, and it wouldn't be activated as a last resort. If you are spotted by a lazy drone on the way, it will not only harm the transit station, but also most likely catch everyone in the base.

But she doesn't care, she believes in her abilities. If she, as the captain of the Weapons Division, can't do it, then no one in the base and the world will do it.

She quietly left the base and walked dozens of kilometers on foot, and her feet were worn out before she came to the transit station. Physiologically, she did feel hard and powerless. But mentally, she never will.

As long as she can see Lao Xu's side, no matter how high the mountain is, she can climb it, and no matter how big the danger is, she is not afraid.

When she looked at Lao Xu's eyes, all the memories and those happy pictures seemed to be vivid.

"Shanshan, when do you think we will be able to go back to the way we used to be?"

"Once upon a time?" Lao Xu was stunned, he had never talked to Jiang Man about this topic. He thought that she had always looked forward.

"It's to go home and live an ordinary life with you. Shanshan, tell me what your home is like now?"

Lao Xu grabbed Jiang Man's hand even more painfully, and said after a while: "Nothing has changed at home, I won't let him move my house!"

"Is my stuff still there?" Jiang Man lowered his head sadly.

Lao Xu was stunned and blinked in a panic. He didn't know how to answer this question, because there really wasn't anything about her in the house. After Jiang Man and Fleur left the town, Laziness deliberately erased everything about her, and the things in the house were also missing at that time.

Not only her, but those who left the town, were also erased by laziness. They never existed in the memory of the townspeople.

Jiang Man's question hit Lao Xu's heart. He remembered how relaxed he had been at home when he had woken up from his healing life, but he had no idea that something important was missing from his home.

He stroked her face, choked up and said, "It's all here." They're all waiting for you, the hostess, to go back!"

Jiang Man snickered: "Shanshan, you don't have to lie to me." I know, that laziness took everything away. But I'm not afraid, as long as I go back, I'll be able to change it back to the way it used to be!"

"Haha, Manman, so you're acting!"

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, as if to push the sad atmosphere away at once. But the old Xu Xin

Knowing, those sorrows and waits never went far, Jiang Man just habitually swallowed them, and then kept a smile in front of him.

In this "fun in suffering" play, as long as she doesn't stop acting, Lao Xu will continue to act.

After eating, they returned to the large warehouse. By this time, the six robots had already moved all the goods on the truck to the shelves.

Jiang Man walked to the bottom of the shelves, looked up at the boxes of materials and raw materials, and said in surprise: "Shanshan, this is enough to build a mecha army!"

"Huh, really?" Lao Xu was also a little surprised, after all, he only did what he was instructed to do, and never thought about what these goods could do, "Is there any new arrangement or new instructions for Xiao Furui?"

"I don't know very much about this, she's been a little anxious lately, you know. We can't put too much pressure on her, after all, it's been so long, and she still hasn't come out. ”

"That's too, it's been five years. ”

"yes, five years. The situation in the town is getting worse and worse, and we haven't found any opportunities yet, and Diligence has no whereabouts. Shanshan, do you know? I sneaked here because I was really worried and scared, and I won't be able to see you again. ”

"Ouch, don't be afraid, I've always been there. As he spoke, Lao Xu took Jiang Man into his arms and stroked her back with one hand.

"Lately, I've had a bad feeling that something big is going to happen. Shanshan, do you feel it?"

"I don't feel it. You look at the static situation outside, it looks like something big is happening. Vine, don't overthink it. ”

"I don't know, it's just that my heart is always depressed and unspeakably depressed. ”

"Have you ever looked for Mo Qingyan? Is it a physical reason?"

"Of course, I looked for it, and he said that I had no physical problems, and it was psychological reasons. But I always felt ......"

"Okay, my darling, don't think so much about what you don't have, think about me more. You're thinking about my words all the time, so you won't be distracted by them. ”

"Well, maybe it's really me who is too careful. But, Shanshan, you have to promise me that you must keep a low profile during this time! You must pay attention to safety! Promise me!"

"Alright, I promise you. ”

They embraced each other, as they did the last time, regardless of the passage of time and the change of things. In today's situation, this is their happiest moment.

At this moment, the door at the other end of the warehouse suddenly activated, and the headlights of the ceiling sensed the movement and hit the door directly. Jiang Man hurriedly pulled out a gun from his Achilles tendon and pulled Lao Xu to hide behind the shelf.

"Really, with me, you still have a gun?" said Lao Xu in disbelief.

Jiang Man poked out half of his head, stared at the door, and then made a gesture to shut up with one hand, and said in a low voice: "Shh...... It's just a habit, I don't have a sense of security if I don't take a gun to defend myself. ”

"Insecure? I can't give you security?"

"It's not that kind of security, I mean...... Danger in case something dangerous happens. ”

"Hah, then you're saying you're in danger with me?"

"Shanshan, I don't want to quarrel with you!" Jiang Man scolded in a low voice, "I walked here alone, I'm not sure if I've been discovered by laziness, okay?" I don't mean the danger with you, but the danger outside of us, there may be danger approaching at any time." ”

"Okay. Lao Xu said helplessly, "Now, 'danger' has become an old friend." ”

"Shh

Suddenly, in that beam of dazzling

In the lamppost, a figure slowly walked out. Jiang Man looked at it and found that the man had no weapon in his hand, and there was no intelligent machine behind him.

It wasn't until the man had taken a few more steps forward that the light was less dazzling that they could see the man clearly. Immediately afterward, they showed a look of confusion and horror at the same time.

Is it too late to hide now?

"Xiao Man! Lao Xu, you come out for me!"

Lao Xu's face was embarrassed, knowing that he couldn't hide today, he smiled bitterly and whispered: "This girl is really disrespectful!"

Jiang Man was also at a loss, so he could only quietly move two steps into Lao Xu's arms, and whispered: "Shanshan, in fact, it feels good to be a young girl." It's just that I don't want to leave you. ”

"I don't want to leave you, Manman. However, I don't have the final say on this. ”

At this time, the person standing in the center of the large warehouse was not a lazy subordinate, but the captain of their rebel army, Fleur himself. After she found out that Jiang Man had sneaked out of the base, she was very worried about her comfort, so she immediately sat on the flying carpet and rushed over.

When she saw that the lights were on in the warehouse and she could smell the faint smell of food in the air, she knew they were definitely here.

"Three counts, three, two......"

"Okay, okay, let's come out!" Lao Xu and Jiang Man held hands and slowly walked out of the shelf.

"How dare you come out!" Fleur scolded.

"Didn't you call us out?" Lao Xu complained in a low voice.

Fu Hui didn't care about Lao Xu, walked quickly to Jiang Man's side, pulled her aside, and yelled very angrily: "Are you looking for death? Don't you know how dangerous this is!"

"I know ......"

"Then why are you still sneaking here? Why is this place only known to the three of us! Isn't it just to make sure that this place is the most secretive! You swagger over and kill everyone!"

"This, I know ...... too"

"And you don't say hello much, you run over by yourself! If something happens, we can't react! You are irresponsible!"

"Alright, Captain, stop scolding. Lao Xu persuaded.

"You, flash me aside!" Fu Rui pointed at Lao Xu angrily, so frightened that he took two steps back, "If you say another word, I will be locked up for ten days!"

Lao Xu gasped and suddenly didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Sister Fleur, I won't dare in the future. Jiang Man said aggrievedly.

"You too! Won't you be able to see him when he comes to the base! What's the point of coming all the way here!"

"It's not, it's going to take months to see you......"

"Can't wait for a few months?! Haven't all of us waited for five years! Family and friends, we've been separated for five years! Why don't we wait!"

Jiang Man slowly lowered his head, feeling that he was too impulsive and reckless. Although she misses Lao Xu too much and wants to see him too much, she can't pull the dozens of people in the base into the water, including her very important companions and subordinates.

Lao Xu on the side looked at the two of them and still felt a little distressed. If he could, he really wanted to hurry back to the base and do what he could to lighten their burden. But he couldn't, he had to go back to the town to get back to his life, and pretend he was a man with no memory.

The base needed them, so when he saw Fleur take Jiang Man away, he didn't have time to say something different. They could only look at each other reluctantly, hiding the unfinished words in their hearts.

"Take good care of yourself. They said to each other in their hearts.
