Chapter 23: Refusal
A general understanding of the beginning of our affair has led to one question mark after another. Only then did I know that our incident was just a small beginning, and the real final truth behind it...... There is still a need to keep exploring.
"Then ......," Xia Mengyu suddenly spoke, "how are you going to convince us to go to your plane?" ”
"I haven't thought about it yet." "I" spread my hands.
"What if we refuse." Ye Fenglan also spoke.
"It's actually very easy to convince you." "Ye Fenglan" said, "If you don't stop it, then most of the people in the future, that is, 2070, will invade you." Most of you will feel what we have felt. ”
Silence, contemplation.
The four of us looked at each other for a moment, but we didn't speak at all. But I saw hesitation in their eyes, and it was hesitation that had never been seen before. It seems that everyone is just as hesitant as I am. My curiosity is indeed strong, and I do want to know the so-called truth, but life is more important. However, what "Ye Fenglan" said also makes sense. It's really tangled......
Still silent, I couldn't bear it anymore, and finally spoke, and asked them, "What do you think?" But all that replied to me was silence, and there was a look, a look of hesitation. They looked at each other for a few more seconds.
"I ......" Xia Mengyou suddenly spoke, and said hesitantly, "I want to go home." "Sure enough...... We've just finished our sophomore year of high school, how old are we? Only seventeen at most. What is the choice before us now? Save the world! Something, we should have flinched, so small, facing death, something we simply can't imagine.
2070, what the hell!? It's going to kill us. Although if we don't go, the same thing as "Ye Fenglan" may really happen, but this ...... It's really hard to choose. Xia Mengyou has already spoken, I don't know what the four on the other side think? Thinking about it, he looked at the four opposite, waiting for their reply.
"Actually, I ...... too" Ye Fenglan also spoke, and it seemed that she was not very willing.
"Hey, we can all understand your feelings. We actually refused to let us come here at the beginning, after all, this kind of thing ......" Xia Mengyou showed an understanding look.
"Forget it, it's really inappropriate for you to decide this kind of thing now." "I" interjected, "you guys go back first." Think about it before you get back to us. ”
The four of us looked at each other for a moment, and Yun Feiyu spoke: "Okay then." With that, he stood up. Ye Fenglan and Xia Mengyou also stood up without saying a word. But I didn't move.
"What's wrong? Liu Yaoxi? Are you ready to make a decision now? "Ye Fenglan" asked me.
"Let's go back and think about it first." I said and stood up.
"Then I won't delay you." Xia Mengyou also stood up, "I'll send you out." ”
"Hmm." I replied and walked out the door with the other three. As soon as I walked out of the door, I heard the three of them communicating something in the room, and what they said was self-evident. After walking out of the door, "Xia Mengyou" did not take us in the direction we came in, but led us in the opposite direction.
"Where are you going?" Yun Feiyu asked, "Didn't we walk in from over there?" He gestured behind us.
"Do you still want to be blown up?" "Xia Mengyou" walked in front and asked with a smile.
Thinking about how we got here, let's not go over there. Yun Feiyu thought for a moment, replied "oh", and then smiled awkwardly. What followed was almost the silence of the whole process, whether it was Xia Mengyou, Ye Fenglan, Yun Feiyu, or me, or even "Xia Mengyou" who was at the forefront, they all had their own thoughts and calculations.
The meeting room was not the end, and gradually we came to the end of a corridor. "Xia Mengyou" stopped and said, "Inside is the group of people behind the scenes." ”
"So how do we get up?" I asked.
Xia Mengyou didn't speak, but turned around and turned to face a vase in a compartment that was recessed in the wall, and turned it around, and the wall next to it opened.
"To be so mysterious?" I relieved my mood and said, "Are you still afraid of someone invading?" ”
As a result, my joke made "Xia Mengyou" very serious: "Of course, who knows if the group of people in the back has spies in 2070." ”
Seeing that "Xia Mengyou" didn't mean to joke, I shut up in amusement. Xia Mengyou spoke again: "Then how can you be sure that the four of us are not 2070 people?" ”
"It's all past that test, do you still need to be sure?"
"And what about the other three?" Xia Mengyou's question directly caused the surrounding air to freeze. I have to say that this question is really worth pondering: who can now be sure who is from their own camp or not? "Xia Mengyou" did not speak. Just moving forward, it's clear that she's thinking.
After a while, I walked to the front of an elevator.
"Damn!" Yun Feiyu suddenly screamed, and then said a little angrily: "There is an elevator that won't let us take the elevator down?" Let us fall directly?! ”
"Hey, hey." "Xia Mengyou" actually smiled and said, "Let you have fun, isn't it much faster besides?" ”
"Cut." Yun Feiyu squinted and squinted at "Xia Mengyou".
"Let's go." "Xia Mengyou" pressed a button next to it, and the elevator door opened. We walked in with "Xia Mengyu". Then there was silence in the elevator, where everyone didn't move, silently thinking, only occasionally swaying with the elevator.
I didn't dare make any noise to break the silence, only the faint sound of breathing and the sound of the elevator running. looked at "Xia Mengyou" standing at the elevator door, and then looked at the surrounding Yun Feiyu, Xia Mengyou and Ye Fenglan, and accidentally looked at Yun Feiyu, Yun Feiyu glanced at me, and asked me again from the look in his eyes: What?
I just shook my head slightly, indicating that it was nothing, and then looked away. Everyone looked thoughtful, and it didn't seem to be so quiet in their dreams.
I don't know how long it took, but I felt that the elevator suddenly stopped, and it seemed that it had arrived. As soon as the elevator door opened, "Xia Mengyou" led us out of the elevator. Turn to the right, and there is a door not far away, and a faint light is revealed.
"Walk out of that door and you're in the world." "Xia Mengyou" pointed to the door and said, "I won't send you away, goodbye." ”
Yun Feiyu only said two words, "goodbye", and then stepped away, and Ye Fenglan also said "goodbye" and followed behind Yun Feiyu.
I looked back, and the two "Xia Mengyou" were still looking at each other, not speaking, and then hugged. Then Xia Mengyou waved at her, said "goodbye" and walked towards me. After getting closer, Xia Mengyou said to me again, "Let's go." With that, he walked towards the door.
I didn't speak, just followed Xia Mengyou's footsteps. When I was about to see the outside world, I turned my head and looked back, and there was no shadow of her. Then he turned his head and walked towards the world that belongs to us......
