Yu Guannan was very sensible and soon pretended to be asleep. Liu Xuejuan walked out of the room and sat down next to Luo Zhi gently.

"It's not your fault." She said in her usual gentle tone.

"If it hadn't been for that rain, we would have been finished."

"Without that rain, we wouldn't be going back. Don't blame yourself, we still have to rely on you. ”

Luo Zhi raised his head, closed his lips tightly, and didn't say anything, he looked away and lowered his head again. The mood that he wanted to talk to Liu Xuejuan just now suddenly disappeared, and his eyes slowly turned red. A few words of complaining, maybe he will feel better after listening to it. At this time, he couldn't stand being comforted the most, but he needed comfort the most. Men also have a vulnerable side.

Taking a deep breath, he looked up, wanting to talk to her about his future plans.

"It's really nice here, but I can't usually come here." Liu Xuejuan opened her mouth first.

Luo Zhi was stunned, he didn't pay much attention to the decoration of this house. A few years ago, he knew that this was one of the most luxurious places in Tangshan. Liu Xuejuan turned her head to look inside the room, as if she didn't intend to talk about business. Luo Zhi didn't expect her to notice this, he was stunned, and he also looked around the room a few times. After a while, he smiled, lowered his head, and soon turned his head sideways again, looking at Liu Xuejuan, at this time he already had the smile on his face that he had just left.

It's amazing. One word, a little action, reduces the depression in one's heart. Luo Zhi secretly admired. Liu Xuejuan turned her head with a smile on her face: "I'm tired, right?" Soak in the hot springs, this is Song Meiling's favorite hot spring. ”

"No, let's talk."

"Look at you, you're covered in sweat, go bubble."

Luo Zhi smiled again and thought for a while: "Okay then." He didn't want to waste his precious electricity, but he couldn't refuse Liu Xuejuan's proposal. He went to the general control room to open the control unit of the circulating water in the hot spring pool, went to the spare area to get a pair of swimming trunks, and returned to the room. Liu Xuejuan was standing in the courtyard looking at the sky. Luo Zhi changed into swimming trunks in the bathroom and came to the hot spring pool in the courtyard.

"Oh, get another set." Liu Xuejuan said with a smile.

"What?" Luo Zhi didn't understand.

"Mine."

"Oh oh......" Luo Zhi realized that Liu Xuejuan didn't have a swimsuit. Forget that she also wants to soak in the hot springs. He ran out of the room in three steps and two steps, and Liu Xuejuan's soft laughter came from behind him.

When both of them soaked in the hot spring pool, Luo Zhi felt a little embarrassed and a little unreal. From yesterday to now, the people are gone, the factory has exploded, and they have fled from the house, there is no food, no clue, only this woman and a little boy who have just met are around. Now I actually soak in the hot spring in the courtyard of the villa of the five-star hotel. In the distance, the sky was covered with dark red firelight.

Luo Zhi looked at the top of his head suspiciously, the starlight was hidden by the firelight, the second quarter moon had not yet risen, and the sky was split in half by red and black. He lowered his head and saw Liu Xuejuan opposite. Everything is real. At present, there are only three people still in the scope explored, the explosion of the factory, the softness and smoothness of the hot spring water, the pale blue waves in the pool not far away, and the fair-skinned woman in front of her, with dripping hair, are all real. Luo Zhi sighed.

"How old are you?" Liu Xuejuan asked.

“24。”

"What a good age." Liu Xuejuan swept her hair and sighed softly. "I'm 30. Before the incident, he was teaching at Polytechnic University. ”

"Are the two books you took your major?" Luo Zhi remembered the two books she had picked up in the library. Advanced Quantum Mechanics and Statistical Physics.

"Not exactly," Liu Xuejuan shook her head: "I studied mathematics and condensed matter physics, and my main focus is on superconducting materials." ”

"Then what are you going to do with those two books?"

"I don't know, I just thought of some possibilities."

"Do you think about why things are the way they are?"

"No, it's too complicated, I can't believe anything."

Luo Zhi did not speak. Yes, it's too complicated, it's not enough to describe it as strange, there must be some complicated reason. What are the unbelievable reasons for this?

"Don't talk about that. Where are you from? ”

"Well, from the Northeast, my hometown is from Jilin." Luo Zhi thought to himself, maybe everyone will have to change their place of origin in the future, what kind of place is it good to call the people?

"It's a good place in the Northeast, there is a lot of snow in winter, it's so beautiful." Liu Xuejuan ignored Luo Zhi's absent-mindedness and continued to chat with great interest. Luo Zhi felt that she was deliberately decompressing herself, and smiled at her:

"Yes, there are trees hanging, that is, rime, in winter by the river, the water vapor turns into frost and hangs on the branches, it is old and beautiful." He deliberately added a bit of a Northeast accent.

"How nice. Like us, it's either hot or cold to death in a year, don't be too annoying, you know? Liu Xuejuan also deliberately added a local accent, and then giggled.

Luo Zhi laughed. Hearing this accent every day, and dealing with locals every day, this has become his second home, and his local complex has unconsciously transferred here. The past scenes in my hometown when I was a child have become more and more forgotten.

"How did you come here?" Liu Xuejuan asked.

Luo Zhi was silent. He came here only because here is a name on the map. He has walked a lot in the cities south of the Yangtze River. Why did he come here? He himself didn't know. If he hadn't come here, he might have disappeared like everyone else, right?

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ......" Liu Xuejuan said apologetically when she saw Luo Zhi's silence.

"It's okay, I'm not because of this ......" Luo Zhi smiled: "Our people there are very bold, and they don't know what it means to be angry." He decided to talk to her tonight and not think about those annoying things.

"Haha, that's it, some men get angry when they don't move, it's annoying, it's better to be like you northerners, not so long-winded."

"Have you ever been to Tangshan?"

"No, I didn't have time, I used to be busy. I didn't expect to be here now. ”

"That's a waste, the world's first hot spring."

"Haha, that's all blowing, where is it good that people don't say anything about themselves? Even if you build a park, you have to say that you are the best in the world. Doesn't Xinjiekou always say that it is the first business district in China? ”

"Hehe, that's not necessarily, you look at the people of Wuxi, don't you just say that your Huiquan is the second spring in the world?"

"So, the first spring in the world has to break its head to fight, Baotu Spring, Zhongcold Spring, and Gulian Spring, don't they all say that they are the first in the world?"

At this moment, another red light flashed in the northern sky. Luo Zhi turned his head and looked: "It's okay, there are not a few oil tanks left." I'm going to see the kids. ”

"I'll go, you can rest here." Liu Xuejuan picked up her bathrobe, got up and walked into the house. After a minute or so, the roar of the explosion was heard, and after a while, a hot wind blew in the air. Luo Zhi doesn't care about these anymore.

As long as it doesn't affect the three of you. Luo Zhi was a little surprised by his thoughts, usually, he was not a selfish person. But what can be done? Thinking about it again, he smiled wryly. He doesn't laugh at the idea that he wants to try his best to get someone else back, although it's a bit like a savior, but it's understandable. But the most important thing now is that he must survive healthily, himself, and his two companions.

Liu Xuejuan came out of the room and went down to the hot spring pool again.

"You're a very powerful person, a very powerful man."

"It's just a guy desperately trying to survive."

"Not everyone is going to be as calm as you are. You know where you're going, what you need, as if you've been trained in something. ”

Luo Zhi smiled and shook his head: "How can there be this kind of training." ”

"You're a clerk for the company? But how can you take fingerprints and take away someone's gun? Before you go downstairs, you think about scaring the beasts, and you seem to know what you're going to do all along. ”

"It's just a matter of doing whatever comes to mind."

"But you already knew that you were going to cut off water and electricity, and the factory was going to explode, all of which you came up with on the spot, and it was already very thoughtful."

"I also didn't know a lot about it, and when I woke up in the library, I thought it was someone who was joking with me."

"If it's a joke, it's too big."

"I wish it was a joke made up by some boring politician or science maniac or something, so that we could go back to the world we were."

"Then, will it be?" Liu Xuejuan lowered her eyes and said in a low voice.

Luo Zhi wanted to divert her attention from talking about these topics. Liu Xuejuan's parents must still be alive, and perhaps her husband and children, and this will cause her great grief. Although the pain was not avoidable, tonight, he did not want to touch her sadness. He was already amazed at how quickly Liu Xuejuan recovered, and she almost quickly stopped her hysteria from being dragged up on the sofa in her house yesterday evening. Although I am alone in the world, don't I also think about Mr. Li?

Luo Zhi felt a pain in his heart, and quickly looked for a topic:

"Condensed matter physics, that sounds amazing."

Liu Xuejuan raised her eyes, and tears disappeared.

"Haha, it's amazing, very few girls read this."

"As long as it's not gas, I'll study it."

"It can be said that the research orientation is different from that of traditional fluid mechanics and solid state physics, and it mainly starts from a microscopic perspective."

"Quantum mechanics."

"Oh, you know that."

"Haha, I'm going to scare you. Actually, I don't know anything about it, but I've heard of it. ”

"Then tell me about it." Liu Xuejuan smiled mischievously.

"Say what?"

"What have you heard of?"

"I can't say this, show cowardice in front of experts, forget it." Luo Zhi also said with a smile.

"What an expert, I don't learn quantum mechanics well at all."

"That's impossible, your condensed matter physics is based on this for microscopic research. Didn't Landau also use this to solve the mystery of superfluidity at that time? If you study superconducting materials, how can you not learn quantum mechanics? ”

"You know Landau?"

"I've heard of the great physicists of the former Soviet Union."

"Hmph, pretend not to understand, who doesn't understand physics but knows Landau? You also studied physics? Don't lie to me. ”

"I really don't understand, I've just read a few physics books. I studied finance. ”

"Studying finance? Heck, you're probably one of the few people who study finance and know Landau, right? ”

"Haha, I'm a person who studies finance, physics is pretty good, and people who study physics can also make up the number of finance. Actually, it doesn't know both. ”

Liu Xuejuan sneered: "Then you are much better than me, I haven't learned physics, and I don't understand a dime of finance." ”

"To understand a dime is to understand finance. Seriously, you teach at a university, so you must have a Ph.D. in physics, right? Luo Zhi tried to return the topic to Liu Xuejuan and let her have more to say, which would give her no chance to think about her own pain.

"Well, Stanford's, actually, the condensed matter physics major here is better, but at that time I always wanted to go outside and have a look. It turned out to be the same classroom, the lab, and then it came back here. ”

"It's very good here, aren't I just a Kanto native who broke into Jiangnan and traveled all the way here?" Speaking of this, Luo Zhi suddenly thought of "a thousand miles of marriage", he was taken aback, and hurriedly continued: "Then in addition to teaching, do you participate in any research projects now?" ”

Liu Xuejuan carefully saw Luo Zhi's intentions, a layman would not be so enthusiastic about a cold and deadly subject. She smiled gratefully:

"Well, there is also a research project, and there are only three people in the team, Professor Liu, me and one of my students."

"Your students? Already able to participate in a research project? That's pretty damn. ”

"Well, it's okay, it's also the direction of his master's thesis."

"You're a master's supervisor now?" Luo Zhi was really a little surprised, so young, being a master's tutor in a prestigious school, Liu Xuejuan is really impressive.

"Hehe, there are too many master's students in the school, so I can only pretend to be stupid and go up to guide, but it's nothing."

"Come on, don't fool me. The physics major in your school is already very powerful, and if you don't have scientific research results, how can you be a tutor. Look, please take care of me and tell me about your research achievements. To put it in layman's terms, don't let me not understand! Luo Zhi pretended to be indignant and said. He wasn't originally such a person, but in order to keep the topic going on casually, he decided to talk nonsense to the end.

Liu Xuejuan looked at him and didn't continue. After a while, she spoke again: "I don't have any research achievements, I only cooperate with others, and I just do miscellaneous work." Don't keep talking about me, let's talk about you, how good finance is, how to become a clerk? I think it's actually more appropriate for you to be a high-level bodyguard. With that, she laughed.

"No, no, I'm a bodyguard, and I have to lose my employer. Being a babysitter is not enough. By the way, how was the kid just now? ”

"It's nothing, I fell asleep, the little guy was tired, and he just rested for a while in the afternoon, and then he ...... again" Liu Xuejuan realized that the topic was back to reality, and suddenly stopped.

"Well, let him rest well. You're tired too, aren't you? ”

"I'm not tired, I'll press your shoulder, these two days are enough for you."

"No, no, don't ......" Luo Zhi was a little panicked, he didn't understand how this could happen, and hurriedly excused himself.

"Haha, I can't eat you again, look at what you're afraid of, come here!" Liu Xuejuan grabbed Luo Zhi's arm like a big sister and pressed him to the edge of the pool. Luo Zhi's heartbeat sped up a little, and he obeyed Liu Xuejuan's words in a daze, and lay on the edge of the hot spring pool. Liu Xuejuan's hands were very warm in the hot spring water, Luo Zhi had been busy for two days, and he really felt tired, and his shoulders were a little sore. He did a lot of hard work when he was a child, and he has always insisted on fitness after becoming a clerk, which is actually nothing. But in the shadow of shock and fear, he also seemed a little unable to hold on. Liu Xuejuan pressed just right, and Luo Zhi was a little sleepy. Gradually, he fell asleep. In the process of being confused, he vaguely heard Liu Xuejuan's gentle voice:

"Sleep, it's fine."
