Chapter 18: Take a break
In the middle of the mottled room, a wooden oval conference table sits surrounded by people.
There were about 15 or 6 people, all with different expressions.
Some looked at me in approval, some looked down and didn't know whether it was contemplation or fugue, some stared at Xing Shu intently, and of course, most of them looked at the pale and cynical young man sitting next to me with suspicious faces.
The king folded his hands in front of his chest, leaned back with his head back, closed his eyes and rested, and I saw that he was almost lifting his feet up the table.
Xing Shu said for a long time, just to let Wang Yiyi introduce himself, or let me explain to you why this person is trustworthy and can settle in the territory of the shuffleman.
I'd love to explain, but what do I explain?
Say I'm seeing him for the second time? Say he might have schizophrenia like me? Although that's not schizophrenia, say we can all cross over?
Through?
The day makes people face reality, not like the night, and they can take anything they want seriously.
What do you want me to say about traveling through time and space? Joke!
So I can only pretend that it is none of my business, and leave it to Wang Yiyi for him to explain.
Everyone stopped talking, and the scene was a little awkward for a while.
The king was still leaning there, had he fallen asleep?
I punched him so hard that he stumbled and nearly fell off his chair.
"What?!" He exclaimed, "What are you doing! ”
I bowed my mouth toward the table and motioned for him to speak.
Wang sat up straight, his elbows propped up on the table.
"What shall I say?"
Xing Shu smiled awkwardly, but he still patiently explained: "Mr. Wang, we don't know you, if you really want to stay, I still trouble you, give us a reason to trust you." ”
To be honest, Xing Shu is already very, very face-saving, of course I know that it is for my face.
The devil knows how Wang Yiyi found me, but he suddenly appeared and left behind, which made me embarrassed.
"I'm not here to stay, I'm here for him." The king squinted at me.
I don't like him like this, squinting his eyes as if he's trying to figure out some idea, and I'm his prey.
"Luo Yang, if you are willing to join us, then you can keep your friend." Xing Shu made a compromise.
"What are you going to do when you join you?"
"What to do? Of course, it's to fight the four loves! Destroy it! A fat man suddenly roared and pounded the table hard.
"That's right! What's there to hesitate about?! Another, younger bald man chimed in.
The people around me were a little emotional and seemed to be accusing me of the question.
How much wine did you drink this morning? How many dishes? So up-and-coming?
This is simply a bunch of extreme terrorists! And let me join them?
Wang Yiyi was very happy, smiling and waiting for my reaction.
"I'm afraid there's nothing I can do." I smiled awkwardly, "I have too many things to do, I'm afraid I can't reach it." ”
Xing Shu cleared his throat, although it was still so sharp: "This matter is not in a hurry, you can stay here and wait for Ling Long to fully recover before making plans." As for your friend......"
"Whatever grievances and grievances you have with none of them have nothing to do with me, and I'm not interested in them at all. I'm going to look for him, and it's none of your business. "Ask him if he will keep me." ”
He threw the question to me, and Xing Shu looked at me helplessly.
Wang Yiyi...... If he's gone, I'll be a little farther away from the mystery...... A man's instinct, at least he won't hurt me.
"Stay! I can take charge of him. I won't cause you any trouble. I looked at Xing Shu, the first time in my life that I had a smile like this.
Afterwards, Xing Shu never talked to me about joining the shuffle, and Wang Yiyi just drank tea and read books every day, and his only pastime was to accompany me to protect Ling Long.
Ling Long's body has recovered for more than a month and has fully recovered.
I asked her what she remembered, but she couldn't say anything, except that I told her to wait in the parking lot and it was gone.
"Then you don't know as much as I do." I helped her downstairs for a walk in the abandoned parking lot.
"What do you know?"
"Yo yo yo, don't mention how miserable you were at the time, that guy, with a disheveled hair, a pale face, like a female ghost, worried about me......"
"Come on, you, do you wish I was dead at that time, so you can get rid of my burden?" She squinted at me and smiled.
"Well, you guessed it. It's a pity, your life is too big. ”
"That's, my life is hard, don't worry, I'll send you away sooner or later."
"Yo, then I can't care about you now, I'm holding back here and want to send me away." As I spoke, I spread my hand and quickened my pace.
"Huh?" Her body was still relatively weak, she had been lying for more than a month, her muscles had no strength, she stood trembling and shaking, and her mouth was still unforgiving, "Stinky camel, you come back for me!" If I'm dead, there's really no one to send you to the end! ”
I like to chat with Ling Long, she can always feel my mood very sensitively, it is heavy and calm.
Under all kinds of invisible and dull pressures, only she can bring me a trace of carefree happiness.
I walked back, put my arm around her and walked back slowly, "You have to be well, I expect you to retire." ”
Ling Long is fine, but I don't know where to go.
It would be very unwise to go home, there had been people in the house, and now there was no place to hide her.
However, Cao Tianwei brought good news, to be exact, a good person.
This was the first time he had appeared since he rescued Ling Long with me.
He's still continuing his normal life trajectory, unlike me, it's a mess.
Cao Tianwei met Lu Xu, who had come to look for my whereabouts, and brought him over as soon as he inquired.
When Lu Xu saw me, he excitedly came up and gave me a bear hug, and then gave me a punch.
"You kid dare to call me!"
We met in an abandoned hut nearby, and Cao Tianwei must have explained to him my current situation.
"You said that we are really fateful, mainly because I am lucky and lucky, I don't know how the monitoring equipment that day failed!" Lu Xu turned on the fragmented thought mode.
"They didn't embarrass you, did they?" After so many days of worrying, there is finally an answer.
"Nope!" Lu Xu's mood was high, "I bit it to death, saying that you held me hostage!" Haha, they don't have any evidence, and I have injuries on my body, so it's fine! He punched me again, "You're a dead hand!" ”
"It's okay, I'm really worried about you because something happened to me."
"Okay, you save it! If you really have that conscience, just follow me to the project?! ”
"Why are you still thinking about this?" I was speechless. "You also know all about the perverted experiments of Siai, why are you still messing with them?"
"You don't understand this, it's science! This is for the benefit of mankind! Besides, how can there be any perverts and immutations, our academician said......"
"You kid is eyeing me, don't you think a patient like me has the most anatomical value?"
He laughed and scolded me.
"How did you get out? By the way, I inquired about it afterwards, and there was no such thing as the chemical research hall you mentioned. ”
"None? Hmph, of course they said no. I quipped, "Can someone tell you about a novice like you?" You're too much of a dish. ”
"Cut, don't look down on people, let me tell you about this project, it's an international joint project! How many people do you think you can get involved? That's the best of the best! ”
"Still ...... the best"
"Look, let's go abroad and have the right to spend a vacation......"
"Wait, you mean...... This project in a foreign country? ”
"That's right! Southern Hemisphere, I can't tell you the specifics......" Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by me.
"You say, this project is going to be isolated from the world for a while?"
"Hmm...... Well, yes, but there's a lot of money! By participating in this project, you will retire directly for the rest of your life! ”
"Is it the project of the Four Loves?"
"I know you don't like the Four Loves, but this project is basically composed of pure scientific research teams, Academician Ning and I, neither of them are the people of the Four Loves, and there are many internationally renowned scientific research teams ......"
My brain was spinning rapidly, that is to say, if I took Ling Long to participate in a project abroad, it would be better than staying here and waiting for the Siai Group in the district to do a carpet search.
Who would have thought that we would take refuge in the Four Love Group abroad?
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest.
The more I think about it, the more reliable I feel, and I'm really desperate right now. Give it a go!
"I can participate! However, I'm going to bring someone. ”
"Bring someone?" Lu Xu was obviously surprised.
"Yes, bring a little girl." I said firmly. "Oh, by the way, I have to bring a ......," I said, but it occurred to me that he might not be willing to go with me.
"How many people are you bringing with you? Do you think that anyone can participate in this program? "Lu Xu is a little angry.
"What's wrong, how expensive a project? Do I have to attend? ”
"I specially applied for your quota with academicians, and the rest of the people can't get in even if they have sharpened their heads. Four million dollars! Four million! Dollars, big sun! How many people are you going to bring? ”
"Yo, that's a lot, huh? These four loves are generosity. Four million dollars for one person? ”
"Grandpa, you are my grandfather, don't be poor, can't we go by ourselves? Why do you have to bring someone else? Don't embarrass me. Lu Xu almost said goodbye.
"No, you have to bring someone, otherwise you don't have to talk about it, and you won't send it if you go slowly." I got up and pretended to leave.
This kind of little trick is really tried and tested.
"Gotta get it, grandpa, you are my ancestor. I'll give you back the application! But I can't say! If you can't apply, don't embarrass me. ”
This time, I lost a smile: "Good brother, Doctor Lu!" No, no, no, Lu University is a top student! I believe in you, you can! I put my arms around his shoulders, "Four million, let's divide them equally!" ”
Lu Xu sighed helplessly, shook off my arm, muttered, and left scolding.
