Chapter 37 Angry Sister Shirley
As soon as the few people left, the laboratory immediately fell silent, and Simba scratched his head with a distressed look, this disc was an object he had acquired by chance when he was young, and he was attracted by the strange inscription carved on it, so he bought it from someone else.
In the past few years, the laboratory has grown and grown, and there are more and more talents on him, and he used to conduct every research himself, but now that he is older, he does not have the same energy as before.
Therefore, many projects are handed over to his subordinates, and he is only responsible for checking and putting forward some opinions and suggestions. But this disc is a breakthrough that he has been studying with his own hands, and it has taken several years of intermittent work to make a breakthrough last month.
He found this kind of inscription from a very obscure document, and from the time of the inscription's existence, it is speculated that it is an object left over from ancient times 10,000 years ago, and its specific function is unknown.
However, what can last for 10,000 years and remain until now is certainly not ordinary, and after two months of research with the team, the restoration was finally completed today, and the result was, as Alan had just seen, a failure.
Simba was there dejected, and Shirley gave Alan a small look, meaning what to do now. Alan looked into her eyes, and I couldn't help it.
"It's a pity, it's a pity. Simba sighed.
He regretted the reckless restoration, but he was also a little puzzled, theoretically the experiment should have been successful, the inscriptions on it were all the result of the fundamental text, could it be that they misunderstood, Simba guessed.
This kind of old object, if you destroy one, you will lose one, and Simba, who has recovered from depression, takes the disc and prepares to put it back in its original storage position, and it is okay to stay as an exhibit in the future.
"Wait!" Alan said suddenly, interrupting Simba's movements.
Simba turned his head and looked at him quizzically.
Alan walked up to Simba, took the disc from his hand, and said, "This thing is interesting, can you lend me to play with it." ”
Simba looked at him helplessly and said, "This thing is broken, if you like it, take it, anyway, I'm annoyed by looking at this thing." ”
Alan happily put his things in the storage ring and said, "It's getting late, you haven't eaten yet." ”
Shirley touched her belly and said with a bitter face: "You don't say I'm not hungry, but I'm really a little hungry when you say I'm really hungry." ”
The three of them marched together like a cafeteria.
Alan actually admires the uncles and aunts in the canteen, this group of workaholics is from morning to night every day, and the meal time is not fixed, but they can always eat every time they come over, and serve this group of uncles every day, it seems that the industry of being a chef is not easy.
Ordered a casual meal, the three of them sat together, Alan wanted to say something, but when he saw Simba next to him, he wanted to stop talking.
Simba is also very sensible, he is also from the past, and he knows that there are some whispers between the two little men and women who want to talk, so he eats and leaves with interest.
After Simba left, Alan and Shirley stared at each other, and the atmosphere became a little delicate.
On weekdays, the two chattered people have not spoken, and Shirley is not in a hurry, sitting there eating in small bites.
There are a thousand words in my heart, but I don't know where to start.
"Shirley!" Alan called out.
"Huh?"
Shirley raised her head and looked at Alan, the two of them had always talked about everything on weekdays, and it was rare to see Allen like this.
"If you have something to say, it's not like you. ”
Seeing him grinding and chirping like this, Shirley urged.
"You don't have to. Alan looked at her with a solemn expression.
After getting along together for so many years, plus Allen's extra decades of life experience, he can tell at a glance that Shirley is not happy now.
She has always been a girl who loves adventure and the outside world, and her greatest wish is to see the wider world outside.
But now she is following behind Simba, being a little follower, doing things she doesn't like every day, and Alan understands from the tiredness that inadvertently shows at her brow.
He couldn't see this before, but since he became more and more proficient in mastering mental power, his insight became more and more keen, and he could read different meanings in Shirley's eyes, movements, or demeanor.
That's why Allen hesitated to have a showdown with him.
"What the hell, I didn't do anything. Shirley didn't react for a moment.
"Are you satisfied with this life?" said Allen, looking into Shirley's eyes.
He is very happy to have someone who is willing to accompany him here, but everyone has the right to pursue their own life, and he hopes that Shirley can live the life he likes.
"Not yet... Wrong... Hmm..."
While talking, she almost choked herself while eating, and Shirley quickly took a sip of water.
"Gollum—Gollum—"
Shirley showed a satisfied expression and said, "It's pretty good, I eat and drink every day, and the food here is much better than the one in the tribe." ”
Alan tried to see something in her eyes.
"Didn't you always want to come out and see, stay here every day, and you won't see the outside world. Alan asked.
Shirley put down the fork in her hand, looked at Allen, and said, "It's good to be like this now, eat well and sleep well, unlike in the tribe, where you have to go out and find food if you have nothing to do." ”
There was a moment of loss in Shirley's eyes, which was captured by Allen, you pretend, you continue to pretend.
"You don't have to lie to yourself, I know what you're thinking, I want you to live the life you want, not to accommodate others. Alan said patiently.
Shirley frowned and said, "Did you take the wrong medicine today, what kind of day do I want to live is your, salty and don't worry about eating radishes." ”
"I don't care about you. Alan smiled wryly.
"If you're idle, go back to cultivation, and you're greasy and crooked here. Shirley looked disgusted.
"Did you hear what I said? ”
Shirley was stubborn, and Alan didn't know what to say.
"Too lazy to tell you, neurotic. Shirley got up and left, not wanting to continue the conversation with Alan.
Shirley walked to the door, her back to Alan, she couldn't hold back any longer, her face was complicated, and the corners of her eyes glistened with tears.
In fact, what Alan just said was right, when it came to her heart, she didn't want to leave here, but every time she saw Alan, she couldn't make up her mind to leave, after separation, she didn't know when she would see her next time, contradictory and complicated feelings.
A shallow smile crossed the corner of her mouth, I said that I would protect you for the rest of your life, how could I leave so easily, stupid!
Shirley's figure disappeared at the end of the hallway.
...
Alan scratched his head, he had just made a bunch of analyses with reason and evidence, could it be bullshit, a woman's heart was in the sea, and she really shouldn't make her angry.
"Ugh..."
Forget it, I don't think so much, Alan got up and went back, there was a special thing waiting for him to do.
Back in the room, Alan took the disc out of the storage ring, the disc that had been damaged on the outside was glowing red at this time, and as soon as he touched it, Alan immediately threw him away.
The disc was so hot that it looked like a piece of burning iron, and the skin of Allen's right palm was burned after just one touch of his hand.
Alan didn't care about this thing in the first place, but why did he bring it back, the reason was that the ball of light that existed in his spiritual consciousness sea, when he saw this disc, he could clearly feel the strong desire coming from that ball of light.
So, Alan asked for something afterwards.
He never figured out what this ball of light was in his head, Simba sealed his sea of spiritual consciousness, but later he was able to use his spiritual power, probably because of this ball of light.
However, since that time, this ball of light has moved again, so Eren is about to forget this thing, like today, like a living thing, transmitting its thoughts, it is the first time to see it.
"What the hell is this?"
He just got this disc, and it wasn't like this, but he didn't expect it to be like this after he left it here for a while.
"Give me, give me. ”
The ball of light in his spiritual sea of consciousness emitted that kind of longing emotion, if the ball of light in his sea of consciousness was a living thing, Alan felt that it was like a baby, and could only express his emotions simply.
Alan tried to communicate with it, but it was useless, the thirst for that desire became more and more intense, Alan was helpless, you can't give it to me, he didn't dare to touch that thing.
"Give me, give me!"
The ball of light bloomed with dazzling light, flew out of Allen's sea of knowledge, and drilled into the disc, losing the balance of this power, and the two forces in Allen's sea of knowledge began to stop again, and the collision of the two forces sent a tearing pain, Allen's eyes turned black and he fainted.
...
Still a little sore in his head, Alan rubbed his temples and got up from the ground, fainting at every turn, he was now used to this situation.
The sun was in the sky outside, and it seemed like another night had passed. Alan pinched his arm, which was a little numb, remembering the situation last night, all he remembered was a white light coming out of his head, flying into the disc, and then he fainted.
"By the way, what about the disc?"
The disc that he threw on the ground last night actually disappeared, could it be that he could run on long legs.
Alan searched all the places in the house and still didn't find them.
"It's weird. Alan scratched his head, puzzled.
"Are you looking for me?"
A childish voice came into Allen's mind, like a child who had not experienced a period of voice change, unable to distinguish between men and women.
"Who?"
Alan looked left and right, but found no sign of anyone.
"Don't look for it, it's in your head. The voice said helplessly.
"Huh?"
Alan entered his spiritual realm, "What's going on?"
His spiritual consciousness sea has changed greatly, and the seal that originally shrouded the entire space has disappeared, leaving only a spiritual sea like a sea.
Above, the disappearing disc appeared here, the original fist-sized disc became a zhang wide, and a small golden man with golden light was sitting cross-legged on it, and between breathing and breathing, the spiritual power in Allen's spiritual consciousness sea drilled into his body one by one.
