"Boom..."

A salty and damp wind blew in through the window, and the paper on the desk danced with the wind, making a beautiful chorus, and the boy opened his sleepy eyes, and had fallen asleep unconsciously last night, and now he had woken up at noon the next day.

"Oh! My book! ”

The young man who was not yet fully awake saw the window that was rattling in the wind, and a spirit came to his senses and hurriedly ran to the window and closed it. It was pouring rain outside, and the huge raindrops fell on the ground and stirred up a circle of ripples before they dispersed, and were soon dispersed by another drop, although it was noon, but the environment outside was dark as if it was late at night.

"It's good that I woke up in time, otherwise these things would have been enough for me to stay up for several nights..."

Looking at the book in his hand, which was still dry, the young man patted his chest happily, and muttered to himself echoed in the room, and when he got up, the light in the room automatically turned on, so that he could see the appearance of the room. The large room is divided into two areas, one side is equipped with various fitness equipment, and the other is neatly stacked with books except for the bed, and the desk is placed with dense notes, and next to it are three full wastepaper baskets.

"Jingle Bell~"

Just as the boy was rejoicing in his books, the landline bell rang suddenly, and the rapid sound echoed in the empty room. The boy put down the book in his hand and turned to look at the position of the landline, where a miniature version of the blue figure was hovering, standing motionless.

"Why is Uncle Yang calling?"

When the young man saw the three-dimensional image over the landline, he inevitably muttered in his mouth, the knife-like face, and the sturdy figure outlined by decent clothes made the characters in the image solemn and dignified, not angry but mighty. The boy scratched his head and straightened up his messy hairstyle, got up and walked to the landline, and nodded slightly.

"Tick!"

Sensing the young man's movements, the stunned figure on the landline moved with a soft sound, and when he turned his head to look at the somewhat embarrassed young man in front of him, his stiff face instantly smiled, and his eyes revealed a kind gaze.

"Liu Yi!"

"Hello Uncle Yang!"

"What, look at you like this, you stayed up late again last night!?"

"Hey, hey..."

Listening to Uncle Yang's deep voice coming from the landline, with some concern in the inquiring tone, Liu Yi felt warm in her heart, but she didn't know how to explain to Uncle Yang, so she had to stand there awkwardly and smile awkwardly.

"I know what's going on in your little head, but you also have to pay attention to your body, you know?"

"Uh-huh, got it, Uncle Yang!"

"I really can't help you! I just called you to ask if there is anything you need? Today, the person in charge of the purchase at home went down, I asked him to bring you some fruit, if you need anything else, you can tell me, I asked him to bring it to you by the way! ”

"No, no! I haven't finished eating all the stuff I brought with me last week! ”

Listening to Uncle Yang's concerned inquiry, Liu Yi's head shook like a rattle, and he hurriedly refused. For more than two years, Uncle Yang took care of him everywhere in his life, treating him as if he were his own son, so that Liu Yi's life was not as embarrassed as others, for which he was already very grateful, so he never asked for more.

"Alas, it's still so polite to me!"

“···”

"Okay, if you need to call me directly, you must pay more attention to safety when you live by yourself! You also know how chaotic the society is down there! ”

"I know, Uncle Yang!"

"Hehe, then I'll hang up first, it's about the same time, and the things I sent you are about to arrive!"

"Well, goodbye Uncle Yang!"

With a "beep" to hang up the phone, Liu Yi shook her somewhat cloudy head, walked to the bathroom to prepare for washing, comfortable warm water had been placed in the basin, reached out to pick up the electric toothbrush that had been placed, and the buzzing sound instantly echoed in her ears. On the other side of the phone, Uncle Yang sat in the brilliant and bright room and shook his head helplessly, the young man's familiar eyebrows and eyes made him sigh helplessly: "It's really like his father the longer he gets, smart and brave, and he also doesn't like to trouble others." ”

The slightly rising mist blurred the mirror, Liu Yi stared blankly at the mirror of the flower in a trance, once people are in a warm and comfortable environment, it is inevitable that they will be cranky, looking at the other two toothbrushes placed in front of them, and the neatly folded towels next to them, Liu Yi's heart lingered in his heart.

"Mom, Dad, where the hell have you been?"

As Liu Yi muttered, the originally blurred mirror flashed, and then played the video taken by his father ten years ago, in a white snowfield, his parents and Liu Yi ran in the wilderness, accompanied by laughter and happiness, and finally the whole family lay in this white world and smiled happily.

The time of happiness always feels short, staring at the family photo of Hemei in the snow, Liu Yi smiled a little bitterly. The originally happy and perfect family was suddenly broken two years ago, and for some reason, Mom and Dad disappeared after leaving a note, and there were only two simple sentences on the note:

One: "Don't look for us!" ”

Two: "Live your life well!" ”

The flowers, which had been in the greenhouse, suddenly began to face the storm alone, which made Liu Yi feel overwhelmed at that time. Born and raised with a golden key in his mouth, no matter what kind of tossing and playing he is, the people around him will give Liu Yi endless love, and he naively thought that this world is so simple and beautiful, and he can get what he wants.

After the disappearance of my parents, I tasted the real warmth and coldness of the world for the first time, and I realized that there was nothing to take for granted in this world, but my parents took the wind and rain in a place that they couldn't see. Now two years have passed in a flash, and the hurdle that I felt I couldn't cross has come step by step, and after stumbling and getting lost, Liu Yi knew that life will never give its kindness easily, so she moved to her parents' studio alone and began to follow her parents' footsteps in a down-to-earth manner.

"Ringing ringing!"

The doorbell rang abruptly at this time, interrupting Liu Yi's somewhat painful memories, and the family portrait that stayed in the mirror switched to the image at the door, showing an old man in a formal suit, standing respectfully at the door.

"Uncle Chen is here!"

Liu Yi reacted instantly, wiped his face and hurriedly walked to the door, the water vapor rising outside the door just opened the door, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the rainwater on the potholed streets had already gathered into a river. A black metal piece was suspended above the old man, which just kept the old man standing below from the rain.

"Uncle Chen!"

"Young Master Liu, this is the fruit that the master asked me to bring you."

"Uncle Chen, how many times have I told you, you don't need to call me like this, I don't get used to it!"

"As it should be!"

Seeing the door open, the old man bent down respectfully, and then handed the fruit basket to Liu Yi's hand, feeling kind to the sunny young man standing in front of him. In the past two years, from the ignorant and ignorant boy to the humble and kind sunny boy now, the old man has seen his transformation step by step, and he has also seen his growth step by step.

"Wait for me in a moment, Uncle Chen!"

"Good!"

As soon as she took the fruit basket, Liu Yi turned around and ran back into the house, shouting loudly towards the door. The old man didn't know what the boy was going to do, so he had to stand respectfully at the door. After a while, Liu Yi ran back to the door with a pair of neat leather shoes in her hand.

"Your shoes are wet, take this pair and put it on, the number should be about the same!" Liu Yi said.

“···”

"Uncle Chen, are you okay!?"

"Hey, it's okay, it's just troublesome young master!"

Seeing the young man come back with clean leather shoes, the old man's body was stunned at the door, vaguely reminding him of his invincible appearance a few years ago, having lived a lifetime, and now he didn't know whether to be happy or distressed for the careful and sensible young man in front of him.

"Young Master Liu, I'm waiting for the ingredients at the master's house, I'll go back first, shoes, and I'll send them to you in two days!"

"Don't worry, you just wear it first!"

The old man bent down respectfully and looked at the young man with respect, and the suspended metal above his head changed shape with the old man's movements, so as to ensure that the raindrops would not soak the old man's clothes. Nodding slightly, the old man walked into the parked car on the side of the road with his shoes, and the suspended metal immediately condensed and contracted into the buttons on the old man's chest.

"Buzz!"

With a loud "buzz", the air flow from the wheels produces a strong reverse thrust that makes the car easily levitate. Stopping at a height of half a meter, the old man called down the window and nodded to Liu Yi, and then flew straight into the air. As the car walked away, you could see skyscrapers standing high above the gloomy and dilapidated city, and those suspended vehicles shuttling back and forth in mid-air formed a clear dividing line between up and down.

"In the past two years, I really have been thanks to the care of Uncle Yang's family!"

Retreating to the room, the iron door behind him closed automatically, and when she opened the refrigerator door and saw that it was full of food, Liu Yi couldn't help muttering to herself.

Uncle Yang and Liu Yi's father are colleagues, and together they realize the controllability of small nuclear fusion reactors, so that human beings can further control high-efficiency energy. On this basis, Uncle Yang applied this achievement to the automotive industry and founded the world-famous Yang Group, and the realization of the suspension car brought human life into the high-altitude era. The shares of the group naturally have a share of the Liu family, but Liu Yi's parents don't seem to have much interest in business, and they have always liked to stay in the original laboratory and bury their heads in research, until they suddenly disappeared two years ago.

"Tick!"

"You have a video message!"

Holding the fruit basket and not knowing where to put it, when he heard the voice of the landline, Liu Yi hurriedly walked over, and what he saw was still Uncle Yang's handsome image, but he didn't know why he had just hung up the phone, why he immediately sent another message, so he had to nod and let the landline play the message.

"Liu Yi, I forgot to tell you just now, there is a dance party at the Huadu Hotel the night after tomorrow, I ordered you a well-fitting dress, and the location was sent to you, take some time to pick it up! I know you don't like this kind of occasion, but I heard that there may be Huixing people present at the ball, so you can take the opportunity to get in touch with it and maybe find clues about your parents' disappearance! ”

"Tick!"

With a soft sound, the room returned to quiet after the video was played, and the rapid rainstorm outside was still non-stop, and Liu Yi stood alone in the bright room and looked a little deserted.

"Bright Star Man..."

Liu Yi walked to the desk and opened her father's previous research notes, which were full of dense numeric symbols and words, recording some research on energy transformation and dimensional space, as well as the stability of space. And this year, Liu Yi gradually felt that the mysterious disappearance of her parents two years ago had some connection with the Huixing people who tore through the space ten years ago.

"Mom and Dad, where the hell have you been?"

Liu Yi, who was lying on the desk, quickly immersed herself in her own world, staring at her father studying the notes and not knowing what to think, the room automatically played soothing and elegant piano music, and the pouring rain outside was washing the twisted city, and time was ticking by.
