"Number 2237, it's working normally."

He fell in love with a flower on a certain planet, and as long as he looked up at the starry sky in the night sky, he would feel that the stars in the sky were like flowers in full bloom.

Suddenly, a trace of electricity flowed through my fingertips. I regained consciousness. In the darkness, I could only hear my heart pumping violently. The air is mixed with the scent of roses. A few stars shimmered in the chaotic darkness, and I realized that it was night. Finally I felt sleepy, and then I closed my eyes.

“…… Awake? ”

I opened my eyes and saw Xiao Mu's face. Ordinary morning, familiar and a little unfamiliar.

He deliberately avoided my eyes, he wouldn't hide himself, and I knew he was like that from a young age.

"Coro, there's a Geminid meteor shower today, remember to get ready to observe." I don't know why he's talking with his back to me.

"Hmm."

I looked at the back of him taking the door out, and I felt strange in my heart, he was a little deliberate, a little blunt.

I grew up with Xiao Mu, who was an excellent astronomy researcher, and I was his assistant. For more than two decades, we have hardly been apart.

I went to sort out the papers, and I stood at the door of the storage room, and I couldn't remember what the password was.

…… What's going on? I shouldn't forget, Xiao Mu once said that I am very careful and always undisturbed.

When I think of it, it's my name "KeLuo". It's okay, I may have been a little tired lately, and my heart is feeling a little stressed.

Just as it's business as usual.

When confronted with her, he ran away like that.

It's her, but it's not her. It's like the annual Geminid meteor shower, which seems to be the fall of the same celestial body, but completely different. He didn't dare look at her face, but it had appeared in countless dreams.

When Xiao Mu saw Koro today, a trace of compassion flashed in his heart. He felt both pitiful and pitiful. But after a moment, he put away this thought again. What is there to pity yourself? It's just atonement. He didn't blame her at all, even if it was clear that she left him first, he felt that he didn't protect her. Such thoughts followed him for eight years. In the past eight years, he has tried his best to get her back, but today, he has once again discovered how far away it is.

He picked up the copy of "The Little Prince" that she had given him so many years ago, and flipped through it gently, looking for traces of her in the yellowed pages.

Four

I had a dream. In the dream, Xiao Mu was a teenager, and when he looked at me, it was completely different from the way he looked at me today. He was very gentle, and the sunlight in his eyes seemed to overflow, and I reflected it in his eyes, smiling happily. We walked together on the street with ginkgo biloba leaves, and the road was wide. I picked up a large pile of leaves from the ground and threw them at him. Then I laughed and watched him turn and bend over, and in order not to let his "revenge" succeed, I stepped back, towards the other side of the street, only to suddenly hear the shrill honking of car horns and the wail of tire rubber rubbing against the ground, and then ...... I felt the scene in front of me shatter into pieces, like a meteoroid that was torn apart, and the last picture was a blurred figure of Xiao Mu running towards me.

After waking up from the dream, I clearly felt my feelings for Xiao Mu flowing in my body, it was an inseparable impulse, like tears clear, stronger than blood.

In reality, Xiao Mu still doesn't want to look at me more. I couldn't help but ask him:

"Why are you doing this to me?"

I saw him pause.

"You used to look at me with a smile all the time. But now you're treating me like a lifeless machine. Am I doing something wrong? ”

Xiao Mu didn't speak for a while, and closed the door hard when he walked out.

It must be that I owe him. I did it wrong.

I don't know what I owe him, but the guilt in my heart is getting deeper and deeper.

Five

Xiao Mu knew that he shouldn't be angry with Koro, but she was too different, and this difference made him feel disgusted and even disgusted.

He felt a little unbearable, but he felt that there was nothing to blame.

Xiao Mu picked up the astronomical research report on the table and went to Coro.

"Coro?"

Coro's name was called, but she didn't respond. I called again, but there was still no response.

Thinking that something was wrong, Xiao Mu just wanted to call Dylan and walked up to Coro, only to find that she was crying.

"I'm sorry......" she sobbed, "I know what I owe you, but I don't know what I owe you......"

“…… I should be sorry for you. You didn't do anything wrong, really. I shouldn't be mad at you for no reason. Xiao Mu frowned and tried to comfort, trying to make the girl stop crying, but felt even more depressed.

Sure enough, it failed again. It shouldn't be memorized. also let her have feelings by the way. In this way, not only did it not make her more like her, but it made Xiao Mu feel that Coro was like a thief.

It was as if the murderer was her, and she stole the one-of-a-kind rose that could not be replicated.

Six

I squatted by the wall alone, playing back and forth in my mind like a movie, every picture of me and Xiao Mu from meeting and acquaintance to acquaintance, trying to find any clues from my memory that could prove that I owed Xiao Mu anything, but found nothing. And for some reason, the memories of frolicking together as children are extremely clear, but the memories of working together when they grow up are vague and clouded with a layer of mist.

My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door, and Xiao Mu's voice came from outside the door:

"I'm out today for something and won't be back in the evening."

I didn't answer, and I knew he didn't want to hear my answer either.

Seven

"Dylan, I still have to talk to you."

Dylan looked at the person in front of him and was full of depression, and he had a rough understanding in his heart.

"I told you that it would be unwise for her to have Rose's memories, it might hurt you and ruin your memories of her. The exact same appearance is already the limit. ”

"So what do you say?"

“…… Let's find a chance to recycle her. ”

While Mu observed the movement of the celestial bodies, Dylan let "Coro" as a machine operate.

She was just a machine with a memory chip installed, but remembering her tears, Xiao Mu fell into deep thought.

Eight

This night, I couldn't sleep. When he wasn't around, I felt like I had lost my steady, swaying back and forth in the deep sea. Eventually, I got out of bed and walked into his room.

By the light of the moon, I slowly scanned everything in his room, and these things gave me the same sense of stability and calm as his back. On the windowsill, I saw a book, familiar cover, blonde hair, desert scarf, and a twinkling night sky. I walked over and picked up the book, and underneath it was a journal. I flipped it open, and a picture slid out of it, and there was a girl on it, and she was me.

I flipped through the pages of the diary that recorded Xiao Mu's feelings, and although each sentence was short, I could read strong love and longing in it. He pleaded again and again, and prayed again and again. He is deeply in love with the girl in the photo, but why can't I feel his love?

It dawned on me when an electric current flashed through my head. He loved so much, he loved until he was exhausted, he loved until he was exhausted.

It's like everything returns to entropy, and there is a heat death between you and me.

What I owe to him is love. When I love him to the last of my strength, we are clear, and he looks at me with the same gentle and firm eyes as before.

"I am willing to be domesticated by him forever, at the risk of shedding tears."

Nine

According to Dylan, before Koro could be recovered, she needed to be scanned to confirm that the memory chip was intact and error-free, and then it could be disassembled.

Xiao Mu knew that she only needed to make excuses at will, such as the need for a physical examination, or directly cut off the power of consciousness when she was asleep. And he knew he had to, Rose's memories would be a truly unforeseen danger in her, and he had to end it before it did.

As he wished but unexpectedly, Coro's reaction was all manifested in her eyes, in addition to the usual calm of the robot, there seemed to be a faint bitterness and reluctance.

Ten

I didn't know what would happen when I got into that glass silo, but I was instinctively scared. I felt helplessness in my heart, and then instinctively wanted to see him.

The starry night has not yet fallen, and the afterglow of the setting sun is shining all over the eyes. He watched the sunset again in front of the window. I always thought he was waiting for the stars, but when I saw the light fade with my own eyes, I felt like he was getting used to losing.

I think I was tamed by him. Because of this, he is unique to me and because of my love for him, he has become so special and important. But I didn't know how to love him.

I never came closer. I would like to have a little more time, as long as it is enough for me to express my love for him. Whatever he wants, I'm willing to give everything.

Eleven

"Alright, number 2237 has been successfully connected, and it is time to start scanning."

The two sat in front of a massive control panel, with a robot on the right side of the thick glass that had cut off the power, connected by thick wires and displaying a clear image on the scanner.

"The parts are all normal, and the next thing is the memory chip."

The screen says "Reading". Done.

"Xiao Mu, Qiang'er's last memory should be the moment of the car accident, right?"

Although he was very resistant to remembering everything that happened at that time, Xiao Mu still endured the pain in his heart and said, "Yes, the doctor said that she was...... Died on the spot. ”

"Huh? That shouldn't be......"

"What shouldn't you?"

"The last thing in the memory chip is not a car accident, but a very complex emotion. I had pre-set the memory chip before implanting it in the robot, and I did remember that the last piece of data of the chip was a memory of a car accident, but ...... now? ”

All of a sudden, all that's left is the noise of the computer running.

Dylan frowned, shook his head after a moment and whispered, "No, I don't know how this emotion was engraved, and even the machine can't analyze the composition at all." ”

Xiao Mu remembered Coro's eyes. He looked at her with her eyes closed on the other side of the glass, she had the same face as Qiang'er, but what about her "heart"? What's inside?

twelve

I heard the machine roar beside me, and I gradually regained some consciousness.

I slowly opened my eyes and met his eyes beyond the glass, and he didn't dodge this time.

He just looked at me like I was the only one left in the world, as if I was the falling sunset.

Then I saw my construction, my part data, on the scanner. I really remembered everything about me and understood everything they were doing to me.

But for some reason, I don't feel scared at all, I just want to keep this moment forever.

You look at me, very determined. You forgave me. In the future, I will repay the love and thoughts I owe you in the ashes.

A baker's dozen

"Eh, what's going on?"

The control panel suddenly malfunctioned, and the data on the screen became a bunch of garbled characters.

Before he could panic, a loud explosion was heard in the glass warehouse.

fourteen

The last thread was broken, and the spark burst inside me into a brilliant rose.

I love you tenfold. My love is so heavy that it shatters the heart of the earth and is so hot that it carbonizes itself.

You have freed me and pushed me farthest away. You use the love of my hands to convert the distance of light years.

I hope that one day, I can be in the galaxy, parallel to your eyes.

Because it is willingly indulged, even if it dies, it does not need to be saved.

"No. 2237, scrapped."
