Chapter 443: The Philosophers' Audience
"Farewell, Mr. Philosopher. ”
Huai Shi picked up the key and beckoned to the little ghost not far away: "Celal, let's go." ”
But Celal hesitated, but did not move, but subconsciously looked at the philosopher.
Huai Shi frowned.
"There's one thing I forgot to say. The philosopher glanced at the child beside him, "He came to Madura to find me." ”
"What do you mean?"
"My manpower told me that strange invisible people appeared in the Yogyakarta area, as if they were still children, wandering around. Then it took me a little bit to find out where he was. ”
The philosopher glanced down at Celral: "We had spoken on the phone before, and I told him that he could come to Madura to find me. I will provide him with the education and life he deserves, so that he will not be forced by hunger and cold...... The end result was that he was willing to come to Madura to find me. ”
Huai Shi finally recalled the surprise of the philosopher when they first met.
It wasn't his age that surprised him, it was Seyar's...... He didn't expect Seyal to be such a young child.
But he was not interested in what the philosophers said.
"The Astronomical Society has a special support agency and maintenance policy for such underage sublimations. Huai Shi calmly retorted: "I think, you probably don't need to bother about it." ”
"Why don't you ask him?"
The philosopher turned his head and glanced at Seyar: "This kind of thing, it should be decided by the parties themselves, right?"
"He's still a kid. ”
"No, he's already a sublimator. ”
The philosopher said earnestly: "Every sublimator must be responsible for his own destiny, no matter how small." You and I can't make a choice for him, can we?"
Huai Shi looked at him in silence for a long time, and looked down at Seyar.
Seyal was also watching him.
"Okay. Huai Shi sighed, "Let's talk about the two of us." ”
"Okay. ”
The philosopher bowed his head and stood far away, as if he didn't want to waste time, and the pen in his hand continued to write and annotate on the lesson plan.
Sit tight.
Huai Shi glanced at him, retracted his gaze, and looked at the little ghost in front of him.
"You've heard it, this uncle who doesn't look like a good guy wants to adopt you. ”
Huai Shi shrugged: "If you are willing to come with me, I will contact the Astronomical Society, well, you don't know what the Astronomical Society is...... Anyway I can guarantee that you will be properly arranged.
Now, it's up to you to choose both sides, and it's up to you to make a choice for your fate, Seyar. ”
Seyal stared blankly at him, then at the philosopher in the distance.
Some are not convinced.
"Is he really a philosopher of Madura?"
Huai Shi shrugged: "Whether he really has the trophy and identity of a philosopher, I can't guarantee it, but if it is someone who is called a philosopher, it is probably him." ”
"I've been hearing about him all the time!"
Seyal said excitedly: "Everyone says that he is the big man of the big guys! As soon as he speaks, no one else dares to speak, as long as he coughs, everyone has to kneel on the ground and be afraid...... He asked me to come to Madura to find him, and it turned out to be true!"
His eyes sparkled.
There is no need to answer.
Huai Shi sighed helplessly: "Okay, I understand......"
He stood up and beckoned to the philosopher in the distance, signaling that he could come.
As if he already knew the result, the philosopher's expression was calm and determined, he glanced at the excited Seyar, and bowed slightly: "It seems that I seem to be more pleasing to children?"
Huai Shi couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Let out a long sigh.
Reach out, take your documents out of your pocket, and unfold them.
"Now, then, I stand before you as a registered military attache of the Astronomical Society, Mr. Philosopher. He said, "I need your assurance." “
The philosopher's expression was calm, and he told Huaishi: "I will raise Seyal as an educator, and do my best to make him a good person who is harmless to the present situation." ”
"Won't you use him as a tool?" asked Huai Shi again, "won't you lead him astray?"
"I swear. ”
The philosopher raised the rosary on the wrist of his right hand.
"You don't need a god to guarantee you here. ”
Huai Shi raised the document in his hand and showed him the logo of the Astronomical Society: "You just need to be honest with it." ”
"Well, I promise. ”
Without any hesitation or weakness, the philosopher made a promise to the Astronomical Society.
It made Huai Shi more and more congested.
A philosophical godfather with a flawed concept, and a bold stealth imp...... Hell knows what sparks these two can make together.
He could have taken Seyar with compulsion.
But what's the point?
Philosophers can adopt Seyar through formal formalities. Seyal can also come out again to find philosophers.
All that is satisfied is his meaningless kindness.
Glancing deeply at the philosopher in front of him, and then looking down at the excited Seyar, Huai Shi couldn't help but shake his head, stretched out his hand, and rubbed Seyar's hair vigorously.
"Well, then, let's say goodbye, little ghost. ”
He thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Before you leave, can you tell me what your dream is?"
"Huh?" Seyal didn't understand.
Huai Shi explained: "It's something that you dream of. ”
"I ......"
Seyal thought for a moment, hesitated, and finally began to blurt out his inner thoughts: "I want everyone to see me!"
Does it count?
Huai Shi didn't know.
He just suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
The sublimator who chooses to hide himself for fear of harm desires that everyone can see him...... Philosophers, who are skeptical of everything, are able to gain the unconditional trust of others.
It's too contradictory, and it's ridiculous.
"May your wish come true soon, Seyar. ”
Huai Shi stretched out his hand, pressed his shoulder, and said seriously: "I hope everyone can see you...... I also hope you can remember that among the people watching you, there is a very fierce big brother. ”
Seyar nodded in understanding.
Huai Shi laughed.
Maybe one day, Seyal will understand what he chooses today, right?
I also hope that he will be able to get what he wants through an honest way.
"Goodbye, little ghost. ”
Huai Shi raised his head and said goodbye.
Seyal waved at him, turned and followed the school's staff.
The philosopher assures that from tomorrow he will start his new life here and that nothing will hurt him.
Although he was suspicious of this guy's bad character, he was not going to deceive a child for any dirty purpose.
"It's emotional, isn't it?"
The philosopher smiled as he watched Seyar's figure disappear, and suddenly said, "Sometimes, I think that only children are the only living and real beings in this world. ”
"Most people are like this, they open their eyes to the world with curiosity, but when they are covered with lies that are both white and bad. ”
This incomprehensible middle-aged man showed a sad expression: "Once you enter this society, no matter how great and upright the ideal, how magnificent the dream, how sharp the edges and corners, will be worn out little by little."
Whether it is a determination or a dream, it will gradually be forgotten in the dust...... Too many regrets, too many unwillingness, will eventually disappear in a long time, like dew. ”
Huai Shi couldn't help but nod in agreement after hearing this: "Seriously, you have so many words, only this sentence sounds a little reasonable." ”
"Am I being hated?" the philosopher asked.
"Almost. Huai Shi bowed his head and said calmly: "You are the kind of person I hate, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get along." ”
And so the philosopher laughed:
"But you don't stop thinking, do you?"
"Maybe occasionally, but it won't be because of you. ”
Huai Shi thought for a while and replied seriously: "It's for those things that are more worth thinking about." ”
He turned to get into the car, started the engine, and prepared to leave.
"The sea of silver has a gravitational pull, Mr. Huaishi. ”
Outside the car window, the lonely man suddenly said, "Compared to the eternal ocean, we are all but a wisp of mist." Every independent soul must fight all the time.
Otherwise, even if it is sublimated, it is only a moment of soaring...... Eventually, it will fall to the earth. “
This is the philosopher's final farewell.
"——I sincerely wish you to be able to soar in the sky for a long time. ”
Huai Shi did not answer.
The buggy is already whizzing away.
The philosopher stood still, silently watching him go away.
Until the bell rang behind him, he picked up the lesson plan and turned around and walked into the school.
.
.
Four hours later.
Returning the car to the Forestry Association of the Madura area, Huai Shi came to the dock area.
The Forestry Society was much more generous than he expected.
After settling Huaishi's workload, he not only subsidized Huaishi's fuel costs, but also gave him an additional 12,000 US dollars.
There is more money.
You don't have to beg all the way to Antarctica.
But Huai Shi didn't feel much joy.
The conversation with the philosopher was not as pleasant as he had expected, but rather unpleasant.
After answering Huai Shi's question, he shook his hand and threw more doubts to Huai Shi.
In the same way, he shows his attitude and life unabashedly.
Facing Huai Shi's refutation so frankly, he will definitely not change in the slightest because of Huai Shi's dislike.
It's as if there are many friends in this world who have a good conversation with him and have a good relationship. There are also people in this world who he can't understand, but who also live.
Either way, it's one side of the world. Whoever it is, they are all part of the sublimators.
"It's a complicated world. Huai Shi sighed softly.
On the backpack beside him, the crow bowed its head, "Who's to say it's not?"
"I don't get it anymore. ”
"It's okay, a lot of people don't understand. The crow lazily said, "But you still have a lot of time to figure it out, don't you?"
Huai Shi nodded slightly.
It didn't take long for the whistle to wake him up from his musings.
At the edge of the pier, a steamboat came over with a board, and then, a man in a white navy hat popped his head out of it and beckoned to Huaishi.
"There's no time to explain, hurry up and get on board!"
As if he had seen it somewhere, the familiar man beckoned to him, and said with a fluttering eyebrow: "There is a long journey waiting for us!"
"Hello, I'm Huaishi. ”
The young man shook hands with him, looked at his face, and always felt that he had seen this very unbeaten face somewhere, but he couldn't remember the meeting that kept searching his stomach.
"What do you call it?"
"You call me K...... Ahem, Captain Kate Peterman!" The familiar man grinned and patted him on the shoulder: "Sit tight, boy, we're going to Australia!"
Soon, the whistle sounded high-pitched.
Carrying the only passenger, the steamboat named Mayflower, roared into the distance.
He was as happy as a wild dog that was making waves on the sea.
A new journey is about to begin.
