Chapter 448: This Peace of Mind
In front of the black tombstone, a white carnation is placed, and Sophia looks at the picture of her mother on the tombstone. In some of the faded photos, the woman with the same beautiful eyes as Sophia has a soft smile on her face, just like Sophia remembers.
Her mother, who was killed by assassins when she was very young, can be said to have been working hard to eradicate violence as a disease.
Next to it was a tombstone that had only been erected this year, and it belonged to her father, Alan Regin, who had also been killed by the Assassins.
Curiously, Sophia did not have much hatred for the Assassin Order that had been fighting the Templars for millennia. The assassin who killed her mother, shortly after that incident, was killed by Alan Riggin's men. The Assassin who killed her father, ironically, was almost entirely made by her own hands with the Animus.
Feeling a pair of big hands wrapping around her waist from behind, the familiar breath came, and Sophia's body naturally softened and leaned back.
Leaning on Ye Qianhu's arms, Sophia asked softly, "Is Catherine already gone?" ”
"She's gone." Ye Qianhu said.
Sophia turned her head to look back, and in the dark night, she could vaguely see the lonely figure disappearing into the night, "Thank you for giving her a chance." ”
Ye Qianhu lowered his head and kissed Sophia's side cheek, and said, "That's what she deserves." ”
All of Katherine Monroe's memories are, so to speak, entirely set for loyalty and obedience. And the microcomputer on her body is not only to assist her in battle, but also to monitor her thinking. Even though Ye Qianhu has been relieved of the second role, the deep-rooted thinking pattern is still firmly engraved in Catherine Monroe's mind. As she herself said, when the opportunity for freedom was presented to her, she didn't know what to choose.
As for what choice Katherine Monroe will make in the end, to be honest, Ye Qianhu can't know. This was the first time he was willing to give cyborgs a choice, at Sophia's request.
Seeing the figure disappear, Sophia withdrew her gaze and whispered, "Let's go." ”
The process of entering another world was much easier than Sophia had imagined, except that the environment in front of her became blurry for a moment, and then it regained its clarity. Although there was a faint feeling of discomfort in her body, she knew very well that it was only because of her own psychological effects.
One moment it was a late autumn night, but the next moment the warm sunlight suddenly rushed into her eyes, and the sudden change of light made Sophia can't help but close her eyes, until her eyes adjusted to the light here, she finally opened her eyes again, looking at the other world that Ye Qianhu said with curiosity.
And, well, there doesn't seem to be anything too special about it, except that the building in my eye is beautiful. A little disappointed, or maybe your expectations were too high.
"This is a biochemical laboratory, you must be familiar with it after Baihou, she is in charge of managing this place." Ye Qianhu let go of Sophia, pointed in another direction, and continued: "Not far from here is another R&D center managed by the Red Queen, as well as a vibranium factory. ”
"So, where is my project going on?" Sophia asked.
Ye Qianhu said: "For the time being, in this biochemical laboratory, if you need it, you can build a special laboratory according to your requirements." Just tell the Red and White Queen your requirements, rest assured, here, the last thing you need to worry about is the financial problem. You must know that the resources of this world belong to your man. ”
"You always feel like an upstart when you talk like that." Sophia laughed.
"Okay, I'll try to be a little more restrained", Ye Qianhu said with a smile: "The work is not in a hurry, the clones over there are still only embryonic states, and it will take some time for the cultivation to be completed." ”
After that, Ye Qianhu pointed to the helicopter parked in the square in front of the biochemical laboratory and said, "Let's go see our new home first." ”
Riding in a helicopter, they arrived at their destination in ten minutes, a small but exquisite villa.
After entering the villa, Sophia suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, and after walking around the villa with Curious and Ye Qianhu, she finally knew where this familiarity came from. Although the exterior is different, the interior of the villa is completely built according to the original home.
Only the study on the second floor feels a little empty, because this so-called study doesn't even have a bookshelf.
"Are you sure this is my study?" Sophia looked at the empty room, and always felt that Ye Qianhu was joking with her.
After a sigh, Ye Qianhu smiled: "Now, close your eyes and perform a magic trick for you." ”
Sophia closed her eyes lightly when she heard this, and there was a small expectation in her heart, and then she felt Ye Qianhu leave her side, and in the room, there was a sound of something falling to the ground.
"Okay, let's see if you like it." More than ten seconds later, Ye Qianhu's voice came from the front.
Sophia opened her eyes and suddenly knew what this surprise was, the originally empty room had become exactly the same as her own study in that world in just a dozen seconds. Thinking of Ye Qianhu's magical space for storing things, he immediately understood that Ye Qianhu directly took over half of his things in the study of that world, and even the cactus on the windowsill did not fall.
Well, it's a cactus, because it's so easy to feed, just remember to water it occasionally.
Although Sophia is a very attentive woman, it is strange that she seems to have never fed plants other than cacti, and may have forgotten that these plants still need to be watered frequently.
Sophia looked at her study and inexplicably felt an emotion called moving. Although it was a very simple thing for him to move all these things to this world, just thinking about the familiar items and layouts in the entire villa, he really put a lot of thought into it in order for him to be able to get used to this strange world.
I suddenly wanted to say something, but when I opened my mouth, it turned into a sentence, "I'm a little sleepy." ”
Ye Qianhu smiled apologetically and said, "I almost forgot about the time difference, let's go, I'll take you to the bedroom." ”
Obediently led by Ye Qianhu, he came to the bedroom not far from the study, and did not take off his clothes, holding Ye Qianhu, who could see that he had no pajamas, lying on the soft bed, the emotion of suddenly being away from everything he was familiar with and coming to a strange world dissipated unconsciously.
Everything on the bed was brand new, and there was a faint smell of lemon, a nice smell, just like the man next to him.
Sophia didn't know that in another country, there was a sentence "This place of peace is my hometown", but her emotions at this time are probably this sentence.
