Chapter 54: Departure
Mistakes were made.
What can be done to make amends?
Shu Yu lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, his heart was numb.
He just chased a distance, and found that Wen Jing's figure had disappeared, and he didn't know where to go. In fact, it would not be difficult to track down, but the guilt in his heart stopped him.
Thinking of Wen Jing's eyes full of hatred and tears, he developed a deep sense of disgust for himself. For the first time, he found that he was no different from the kind of person he hated the most!
How can we make up for it......
He thought about it and couldn't get the point.
Suddenly, a strange aura appeared around him, and a voice sounded at the same time, calling his nickname with full depression: "Crispy Fish ......"
Shu Yu was immersed in his thoughts, and was startled by this sudden voice, he jumped up suddenly, looked to the side with wide eyes, and saw the familiar face, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief in shock, and complained: "What are you doing, Chi Chuanle, people are scared to death!" ”
Chi Chuanle didn't look at him, stared blankly at the room where he had lived for almost two years, and said softly: "People are so cheap, when I used to live here, I always thought about moving away, but now that I am gone, I feel that I used to be very happy here......
Shu Yu stared at him, frowned, and asked, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”
Chi Chuanle said dumbfoundedly: "Crispy fish, I'm leaving." ”
"Let's go? Where to go? ”
Chi Chuanle replied to the question: "Oh, by the way, I forgot to congratulate you on your evolution!" ”
Speaking of this, his eyes flashed: "Crispy fish, we've always been good friends, right?" ”
Shu Yu's eyes rolled, and he also answered the question: "Your father told you to go home, right?" By the way, the ninth-level evolutionary is an important resource in the family, and your family itself is also a powerful family in the top ranking of the Earth Federation, and if it is enough to be in charge of the alien world, your father will definitely not let such an important resource of you go outside. ”
The more he talked, the more certain he became, until Chi Chuanle interrupted him impatiently: "I'm not a resource!" I'm a human being! ”
Shu Yu closed his mouth, and after a while he shrugged: "You were also a human before." Since childhood, it has always been. ”
He said it very simply, but Chi Chuanle quickly understood what he meant. Weak chickens are also human, and ninth-level evolutionaries are also human, but this is not the case in his father's eyes.
Chi Chuanle was silent, and Shu Yu accompanied him quietly.
After a long time, Chi Chuanle turned around, looked at Shu Yu, his eyes flashed with determination, and said in a deep voice: "Shu Yu, although the dividing line of eighteen years old will determine whether you can evolve or not, as long as you evolve, there is no age limit for the rise of the level!" ”
Shu Yu nodded, he also knew this.
Chi Chuanle continued: "My father is an S-class evolutionary......
His words paused here, and his mind flashed back to the indifferent and appreciative eyes of his father when he looked at him when he was a child, not looking at his own son at all, but evaluating the value of a cargo. He was considered worthless, so that was the last time he was looked at by his father. That person, even the corner of his eye is stingy to give it to him!
Chi Chuanle took a deep breath, fantasizing about his father's surprised and frightened gaze when he looked at him, and a burst of happiness suddenly rose in his heart, and he said loudly in this burst: "I will do my best, I want to cross the threshold of the S-level, I want to rise further, I want to ...... everything"
Shu Yu interrupted him, looked at him affirmatively and encouragingly, and whispered, "Come on, Chi Chuanle." ”
Chi Chuanle stared at him tightly, he was not strong, and many times he even relied on this friend, and his friend always stood by his side silently, telling him again and again: "Be firm in yourself!" You only exist in how you see yourself! ”
Chi Chuanle looked at him warmly, smiled, raised his hand, grabbed Shu Yu's wrist, and pressed something into the bracelet of his left hand. Shu Yu looked down and saw that there was a simple and unique pattern on the silver bracelet, like a flowing musical symbol, which was the logo of Sanskrit!
Although he hadn't seen it before, Shu Yu immediately thought that this was Fanyin's controller! He raised his head and looked at Chi Chuanle in surprise. Chi Chuanle nodded and said, "I don't think I will need this after I go back, so I'll send it to you!" If you want to go to the city or something, it's more convenient to have your own shuttle. ”
As soon as Shu Yu thought about it, he accepted it calmly, waved his fist at him, and said with a smile: "Thank you, buddy!" ”
Chi Chuanle stood up, smiled and said, "I'm leaving!" Remember me, brother! ”
******************
When Chi Chuanle said goodbye to Shu Yu, Xu Linyu was drinking with Yuan Fei in a small town tavern near the school.
The Seventh Intermediate Academy, located in a shallow pit in the southwest of the back of the moon, this pit is called the Severn Plain, which has such an atmospheric name, but the place is not large. This is a small town where the Seventh Intermediate College is the main cluster, and the main residents in the town are the teachers of the school and the families of the teachers, and a small number of small shops and taverns are also opened by the families of the teachers.
It's dusk, and the town's two- and three-story buildings are flushed by the setting sun, and the floor-to-ceiling glass windows shine on the cheeks of the two at the bar.
Xu Linyu took a shallow sip of the wine in the cup, looked around, and said with a smile: "This place is a bit similar to the house." ”
Yuan Fei smiled faintly and did not speak.
Xu Linyu stared at him, the sun reflected half of his face in the shadows, looking extremely thin and gloomy, which was completely different from the friend in Xu Linyu's memory. He was silent for a moment and asked, "You haven't told me all this time, why did you leave the institute?" I thought you were doing a pretty good job there...... The research funding is very sufficient, the research resources are never scarce, and the leaders value you very much, not to mention our guidance......"
"Everyone has their own ambitions, Lin Yu." Yuan Fei interrupted him softly and crisply. He interrupted unceremoniously, which made Xu Linyu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, Yuan Fei also felt it, smiled, and added: "There's nothing wrong with the Wildfire Research Institute, it's perfect for a simple researcher like you to stay there." ”
"Pure researchers?" Xu Linyu was not only not stupid, but also quite smart, he immediately grasped the key point in Yuan Fei's words and asked nervously.
Yuan Fei looked at him, a little distracted for a while.
Both of them graduated from Kunlun National University, a school whose teaching quality is second to none in the entire galaxy.
Xu Linyu Xiaoyuan Fei was three years old, when he entered school, he just stepped on the tip of Yuan Fei's tail after graduation, and when he was in school, the two had never even met.
But the fates of both of them are strikingly similar. The faculty of Kunming University is extremely strong, and the level of study and research in all aspects is quite high, but no matter how you compare, it is obviously inferior to the Wildfire Research Institute -- the two institutions are not competing on the same level at all. The two of them had excellent grades in school, and a number of distinctive and innovative papers had been published in authoritative journals during their studies.
When Xu Linyu was first introduced to this junior at the research institute, the big boy between youth and teenager still had a hint of childishness on his face, and his bright eyes were filled with incomparable enthusiasm for the exploration of the phenomenon of mutation, the highest and deepest mystery of the human body. This enthusiasm made him suddenly recall his original self, and directly infected him, making him can't help but have blood surging in his heart, wanting to do something.
The two of them became close friends because of their shared research direction, and they both went in and out of the same food during that time, and the excellent living conditions of the Wildfire Research Institute made them not worry about it at all, so there was only one topic between the two from beginning to end, about research, about exploration, about human mutation, evolution, and the future......
Until Yuan Fei left. Suddenly, there was not even a word of greeting.
The young man in front of him now seemed to be much calmer, but in those gray eyes, there would occasionally flash a light, clearly clarifying his heart that was still the same.
Yuan Fei smiled faintly and changed the subject: "What are you studying now?" Can it be said? ”
Xu Linyu stared at him twice, and then changed the topic: "A boring thing." If you go to the Kuaku Kongshuo Museum, you can see it. ”
"Oh? Air shuttle? Yuan Fei raised his eyes and asked with some surprise. Having been at the institute for a long time, he knew very well that although the shuttle technology had brought the Wildfire Research Institute a great reputation and a lot of money, it was only a small story for research, and there was not much attention paid to it internally. Xu Linyu was already a core researcher of mutation and anomalies when he left, how could he bother with this kind of thing?
Xu Linyu shrugged his shoulders: "I had an idea before, whether it was possible to combine the study of air shuttle and mutation to ......?"
Yuan Fei's eyes flashed and he said, "You mean, the bioization of the shuttle?" ”
At present, only humans can mutate, it is not surprising that Yuan Fei would think like this, Xu Linyu really nodded, and said: "That's pretty much it, it was just a game at first, and then it was made a weird half-finished product." The old men like it, and they are chasing after it to mass-produce it......"
Yuan Feida was interested and asked, "How did you get it?" What is the principle? ”
Xu Linyu glanced at him, shook his head, and did not speak.
Yuan Fei didn't seem to understand his eyes, and said to himself with great interest: "Although the biological machine has never been officially put into use, the idea is indeed relatively mature. Now the technical research should only be a matter of experience and data accumulation. But I haven't heard of using the human biological chain to design biological machines, how do you do that? ”
Xu Linyu lowered his head and stared at the wine glass in front of him, the sunlight slanted in from the window, reflecting the ice cubes in the glass in front of him, reflecting colorful light, illuminating him a little trance.
But Yuan Fei said even more excitedly, he suddenly stood up, patted Xu Linyu's shoulder hard, and said excitedly: "Let's go, take me to the Kuagu Sky Shuttle Pavilion to have a look!" Let me see what you guys make! ”
Xu Linyu didn't move, a trace of displeasure flashed on his face, and he said gloomily: "I hate that thing." ”
If Shu Yu was there, he would definitely wake up immediately, Xu Linyu was talking about the new type of air shuttle called "Jingwei"! And he's going to feel like a confidant, and for some reason, he hates that thing too! But Yuan Fei didn't expect him to suddenly say such a sentence, and narrowed his eyes in some confusion.
Xu Linyu said: "Don't you think, such things are abnormal? ”
Yuan Fei didn't say anything, Xu Linyu took a big sip of wine, and said, "I didn't think too much about this thing when I was researching, I just thought it was a novel idea." As you said, the development of biomechanics has crossed that bottleneck, and the study of the combination of mutant organisms and shuttles can only stand on the shoulders of predecessors...... It's pretty much done now, but it's completely different from what I thought it would be! That's not really a biomechanical machine at all, it's a mutant! It's something made up by distorted human beings in order to satisfy their own **, and it simply violates the common sense of nature! ”
If Shu Yu heard this, he would definitely agree with it, and his dislike for that thing in the haze was for the same reason. But Yuan Fei pursed his lips disappreciatively and said, "You think too much, Lin Yu." Isn't technology just for humanity? What is the so-called scientific ethics is nothing more than self-satisfaction in the form of groaning without disease. None of this is needed for the development of humanity! ”
Xu Linyu didn't agree with his words, but he only habitually avoided Yuan Fei's tough expressions. He glanced at Yuan Fei silently and asked softly, "Is this what you left the wildfire for?" ”
Yuan Fei's face froze, and he fell silent suddenly, Xu Linyu's voice was still soft: "Because you can't accept the lord's restrictions on the Wildfire Research Institute?" We have a lot of results that can't be made public, and we can't be derived into products...... Can't give help to humans? ”
He said one sentence after another, and Yuan Fei's expression became more and more cold. As soon as Xu Linyu's voice stopped, he immediately sneered and said, "Yes! That's why I got out of there! ”
He picked the corners of his mouth contemptuously and said, "What Phoenix Lord Lord, who always looks compassionate and compassionate, just treats the Wildfire Research Institute as his own private property. Do you dare to say that the various research directions of the institute were not specified by him? Do you dare to say that these things hidden by the Institute were not requested by him? ”
When he spoke, Xu Linyu kept staring at him, and when he finished speaking, Xu Linyu sighed lightly, shook his head, and said, "You have a lot of things you don't know...... And, as a scientist, is it really good to have no reverence for life and the world? ”
"Awe?" Yuan Fei sneered again, but did not continue to speak.
But even if he didn't say it, Xu Linyu knew Yuan Fei's thoughts very well. Yuan Fei's belief is not awe, but dedication! It has always been the case, in order to reach his goal, he can give everything, even ......
What had once shocked him deeply was now ironic, and he tiredly provoked a smile.
The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other. The intimacy and dreams of the past are a joke in front of me. He felt a little regretful in his heart, and wanted to find some more topics to bridge the gap, but Yuan Fei didn't give him this opportunity at all, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, stood up, and said with a reluctant smile: "I remember that there is something to do, so I will go first." After saying that, he picked up his clothes and went straight out.
Xu Linyu looked at his back in a daze, waved his hand at the bartender, and said, "Brother, let's have another drink." ”
