Chapter Eighty-Three: Night

The days and nights of the moon are long, one day and one month, and one night and one month.

However, it is human nature to live a day and a night, even after 400 years of entering the space age.

Standing in front of the window and looking out, there was a night scene outside. On that towering laurel tree, there are stars dotted, and at first glance, it really looks like a moon god who is guarded by the stars.

It's just that in the eyes of Tanaka Baie at this time, it is not a starlight, but a piece of summer sunshine.

The restlessness in her heart is no longer there, and she quietly enjoys the night view outside the window, so comfortable, just like the mood of the previous time.

It doesn't matter if you sit casually, spread your legs wide, on the warm wooden floor, smell the sun, listen to the sound of flowers and plants, and look at the color of the air.

It's like being alone with someone now, you can not say anything, you can do anything, and you can just enjoy the night view without anyone disturbing you.

This kind of abundance and abundance, since the death of my grandfather, but there is no more.

Even, she realized that she didn't seem to have been like this for a long time, thinking about nothing, doing nothing, and it didn't matter if she squandered it, wasted it at will, and consumed the time in her life at will.

Outside the window is the night view of the moon, the laurel tree of the moon, and inside the window are guests from the earth, but not for sightseeing.

Tanaka Momoe suddenly made up his mind, if it's tomorrow, let's say it.

It's just that tonight, she just wants to be quiet like this, not saying anything, not doing anything.

On the sofa in the back, Lu An, who was staring at the ceiling in a bored daze, occasionally looked at Tanaka Baie standing in front of the window with his hands crossed, and suddenly understood where her lazy temperament came from when she talked to people in the organization.

Perhaps it is this silence when she is alone that makes her feel lazy and seductive. Although she deliberately disguised herself in the organization, she unconsciously revealed a deeper temperament.

is different from quiet and indifferent, her generous and calm posture reveals another kind of beauty.

The Six of Spades, Hyake Tanaka......

Before, Lu An was calm and confident in front of her. Even if he is occasionally embarrassed, he thinks he knows her very well, after all, he and she have a tacit understanding inside and outside the organization, which is the convenience brought by that super long and detailed list. Even Lu An is very sure that some of the information on the list, even Tanaka Baihui himself may not have a clear understanding of him.

But so what?

Lu Anxin sighed: Perhaps, even if he knows more information, he still can't really understand a person.

Just like now, such a temperament, such a feeling, this subtle understanding in my heart, where can be summarized and commented in a few simple words and numbers.

So while Momoe Tanaka was quietly staring at the night scene outside the window alone, Lu An was also staring at the ceiling of the living room alone.

In such a silent and idle night, there was nothing to wait, nothing to look forward to, no goal, so quietly silent, so that Lu An's thoughts began to permeate the infinite nothingness.

Not to mention the relationship between strangers and friends, even if it is one's own relatives and friends, can it really be understood by oneself? How can I really know the people close to me?

His sister Anna, although she is close to her and depends on each other, Lu An is even very aware of her every living habit, but is this called understanding? No, it's just familiarity, so familiar that I'm used to it, so used to it that I can't easily notice the deep strangeness.

If your sister is like this, what about your father? What about my brother? What about mothers? What about Grandpa? What about grandma? What about your friends?

Thinking about it like this, I even remember my father's face vaguely, and my father's voice was completely forgotten, leaving only a warm feeling of closeness and nostalgia.

Are you familiar with your father?

What about my brother? In front of him, his brother is always a serious tone and a warm and warm face, but is there really such an unchanging person? Doesn't his brother have sad and weeping, sorrowful and painful feelings? No, only as a human being, no matter whether you are rich or poor, no matter what your personality is, you will have such emotions. However, I have never seen it, or I have never seen it in my memory, or I have seen it but I have forgotten it.

The father and brother that I revere and longed for the most in my heart, have I never really understood? Is it only a phantom of one's own imagination that lives in one's heart? It's just that this kind of warmth is always reluctant to admit it, or everyone is a phantom in the eyes of others.

People are only truly alive when they get along with themselves. It's just that, thinking about the past and the vague memories, even everyone has never really understood themselves.

"Man, know thyself."

This sentence seems to be the words of a building that has long been destroyed somewhere in the ninth district, Lu An had seen this sentence in a book left by his father, and it was copied several times by his father on the title page. Looking at the handwriting and order, my father probably had a different perception of this sentence several times.

For Lu An, he suddenly remembered this sentence at this time, and felt even more that he had never really understood what his father was like when he was alive, and he might never know it again.

When you think about it this way, people are really lonely creatures. Although they live in a large ethnic group, what they think in their hearts can never really be understood, after all, the difference between what they say and do and what they think is like a chasm between one person and another.

Father, brother......

By extension, my mother was heartbroken back then, and she didn't seem to be able to really understand the pain. I lost my father, but what about my mother? How a wife views her husband, Lu An feels that he may not be able to understand it in his life. The gap in gender and identity, as well as the later breakup of the family, made Lu An and his mother have an inexplicable estrangement.

Come to think of it this way, ——, old man......

And the grandmother who cherishes herself enough......

own friends......

By the way, there is also that Miss Lin, perhaps because her identity is so ambiguous, she always feels like seeing flowers in a fog, vague, vague, and vague......

Lu An suddenly let out a long sigh, although it was slight but clearly audible, and he realized that he was not alone in a room, and there was an Yiren standing in front of the window of the living room.

Seeing that she didn't look back, just stared blankly at the scenery outside the window, as if she was not disturbed by her own voice, Lu An sighed silently, smiled bitterly, and sat up.

Since it is impossible to understand her thoughts in any case, why rack your brains with the mood of temptation and prying eyes?

Gently came to the window, followed the example of Tanaka Baie, crossed his arms, and stared out of the window quietly like her.

After a long time, Tanaka Momoe said, "What a beautiful night." ”

"yes."

Lu Anxin's temptation went to his heart, and he had no extra thoughts, and subconsciously agreed. It's just that after thinking about it, I suddenly laughed again.

Tanaka Baie saw the corner of his eye, and then turned his head and asked strangely, "What's wrong?" ”

Lu An smiled and shook his head: "I just suddenly remembered that in such a situation now, I don't know if it's still night." After all, you know, the night here is ,...... with the night of the earth."

Lu An has lived on Earth since he was a child, and for him, day and night are naturally related to the sun overhead. Unlike people on other planets, they have long been accustomed to distinguishing time according to the day and night of the body.

This biological instinct, formed over millions or even tens or hundreds of millions of years, did initially come from the sun overhead; Later, the people of the earth raised torches and lit lights, and gradually, day and night had nothing to do with the sun. Later, humanity stepped out of the cradle, and the people of the interstellar age had long forgotten the sun overhead.

It is as if from an animal to a human, from the animal nature to give birth to human nature, gradually people have long forgotten their animal identity, human and animal seem to be two kinds of existence, and human nature has also begun to eat animal nature. People call it evolution, call it civilization, call it progress.

It is as if people who fly across the stars today forget that the day and night in their bodies come from the day and night of the sun, and instead think that the day and night in the body defeat the sun overhead, which is the gift of nature's evolution.

Tanaka Baie was slightly surprised, and after a moment's thought, he understood what Lu An said.

"Have you never been to an alien planet?"

"I can't remember it when I was a kid, but this is the first time I remember. I won't tell you," Lu An touched his nose embarrassedly, "I fainted from seasickness on the way to the moon. ”

The corners of Tanaka's mouth twitched, and he said, "That's really rare." I hate interstellar travel, but I've been to the Moon, Mars, and Europa because of my work. ”

"There's no way, I'm shy." Lu An shrugged helplessly.

Tanaka Baie saw that Lu An didn't look like he was joking, but he said it generously, so he turned his head to look out the window again, and said softly: "Actually, even on the earth, this situation is not absent. The people of the 2nd, 3rd, 9th, and 10th districts also have polar days and nights, and their day and night are definitely different from those of our 11th and 13th districts. Even, people in the southern hemisphere have different seasons than ours. In July and August, the summer is sunny, but in July and August, they may be snowy. ”

Tanaka remembered the abundant sunlight and smiled unconsciously.

Lu An also nodded and said: "Yes, when you say that, I also find that sometimes what I think is natural is just my own wishful thinking or misunderstanding." ”

Lu An said, pointed to the bright lights outside the window, and said: "It's like the laurel tree outside, maybe it is art in the eyes of others, but unfortunately I only saw a mess of hair." ”

Flutter –

Tanaka couldn't help it, and giggled.

"Messy hair ......"
