Chapter 65: The Last Ten Seconds of Memory

In the 10th second, it's a beginning and an end.

He walked backwards through the crowd, with a noticeably prominent demeanor, tall figure, and backward steps. Everyone's time is forbidden to pass, but his time is like an hourglass.

What is the concept of ten seconds relative to a person? A short ten-second fantasy of becoming a Monopoly? An action to sip coffee? And the sprint record? Race against time to rescue?

If you dissect the short ten seconds, will it become relatively long? If the stretched ten seconds belonged only to that man, what would he recall in those ten seconds?

The hazy picture, listening to the sound of the hurried ambulance, falling asleep intermittently, and the memories gradually began.

I was born into an ordinary family, and my parents' professions were to serve the people. My father was a firefighter, and in my opinion, he was a retrograde in and out of the crowd, a fearless hero of fire, risking his life with his companions to rush into a hellish fire with thick smoke billowing from his companions.

Every rescue operation is like a gamble, with life as a bargaining chip. He's lucky enough to win every time, but who can guarantee that he'll win every gamble.

In my memory, my father's figure disappeared in the winter when I was ten years old. His time has always belonged to the people and the organization, even if it is personal time and leisure time on holidays, once the fire fighting order is issued, he has to become a people's hero, put on a firefighting uniform, and have to abandon his wife and children to go to the fire destination.

He is a person who always regards the collective as the most important thing, even if it is the family, but he still puts the collective first in his heart. Although his mother advised him to be cautious when acting, and he smiled and agreed every time, he was more serious than anyone else when he acted. He knew that the time of the fire was slowly engulfed by the flames, so he had to race against the clock.

So every time my father came home in the middle of the night, he was first scolded by his mother, and then his mother hugged his father tightly with tears in her eyes.

"If you die...... What about me and my child? Don't you have to think about us if you think about them? ”

"It's okay, it's okay, with your amulet, everything is fine, don't cry......"

Through the picture in the crack of the door, the two are so reluctant. The mother's eyes showed tears of true love, her face was full of helplessness, sadness and reluctance, and all kinds of emotions were contained in a tear. My father's face was apologetic and overwhelmed, both were important, and he didn't want to give up. Whenever my mother saw that her father had come back safe and sound, the heavy stone in her heart could finally be put down, and she could not hold back her crying and no longer be sad.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, and my father was not always lucky, and he eventually lost his life in the fire. After being busy for most of his life, the soul returns to heaven and begins to enjoy the next life.

After my father died, my mother was widowed for the remaining decades, and I was brought to pay tribute to my father every year during the tomb sweeping, but the more I grew up, the more ignorant I became, and I was not very filial to my mother and did not take good care of her. Maybe it's because I've grown up and my wings are stiff, and I don't want to pay attention to her. Every day except for work is work, and the rest of the time still doesn't want to see her face full of wrinkles of time.

"Really, can't you just change jobs? Even if the salary is low, it's okay! ”

"You don't care."

Even if you deceive yourself and pretend not to care about your face, there is always a rope in your heart that tightly strangles your heart. Perhaps the reason why I worked so hard was to give my mother a peaceful old age, to give her any wishes before her life was about to die. But I was ignorant at that time, thinking that money could satisfy my mother's regrets, and later I gradually realized that what my mother wanted was only a short-term company.

It is said that my mother is a doctor in a small town, and the fate of the two is really coincidental. During a rescue operation, my father broke his left leg when he was crushed by a fallen log, resulting in a fracture in his left leg, and although it took months to repair, the old wound on his left leg still recurred. Every time the operation came to a critical juncture, the old injury in his left leg recurred, almost taking his father's life.

In the half life of my father and mother's loving love, I was like a superfluous one. Every Valentine's Day or wedding anniversary, the father would quietly surprise the mother.

The ...... of the ninth second

"Time and Space Weapons Bureau?! Mom, Mom! I've been invited to join the largest weapons management library in time and space! We won't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future! "At that time, I was happy like a child who will never grow up, and I held the letter of appointment tightly in my hand. I don't know how to describe my emotions, but I'm happy and want to share this with my only family in the world.

"Yes...... Director Lee? "Mother was spread out in a rocking chair, she was very old, and her gray hair covered the traces of the black hair's past. Her hands trembled, and her youthful hands turned into folds of years of exhaustion. She touched the letter of appointment lightly, and spat out the simple exclamation in her mouth.

I nodded, "Yes Mom...... It's Director Li Aoki, I was able to receive a letter of appointment from the headquarters of the Time and Space Weapons Bureau this time, and it is estimated that there is a large lack of manpower in the armory. ”

I took my mother's hand and kissed her wrinkled skin, "Later...... We will be able to live a good life as a mother and son, and you will no longer have to live a tormented life. I will let you enjoy your old age in peace, so that you can live the rest of your life without regrets. ”

"Mom...... I'll tell you one thing, I'm a full-fledged Praetorian Guard now, and I'm ready to carry out my mission. I'm out there...... Can you hear me? Mom......"

"Mom...... You can sleep quietly and have a good chat with your father down there. I will come to see you every year, there is no fate in this life, and I will repay you two elders in the next life. ”

This year, chaos broke out in the Fourth Time and Space, a large number of abandoned prison inmates appeared in the northern cities, and a large number of weapons were stolen from the Space-Time Weapons Bureau and Hyogo No. 1 Management Area. In the name of the No. 3 Praetorian Guard Group in the Northern Lotus Region, I went to investigate the weapon theft incident and arrested more than 100 time and space criminals.

Three years later, I was transferred to the CIA as the head of the Black Chronicle Investigation Section, and Shen Qing and I wandered around the world to find the whereabouts of the Black Chronicle.

The following year, the Coordinate Investigation Section team "Peacock Eye" was established and officially commissioned by the Central Intelligence Agency. Shen Qing and I transferred to the department at the same time, and went to the corners of various time and space to investigate the mysterious coordinate signals. and, the legendary Rubik's Cube grid.

It was also in that year that the mysterious figure of the Child of Prophecy appeared in my worldview. For me, he is so great that he can lead the people of the world to an era of prosperity and prosperity, and lead us to revolution together!

"Hello, my name is Chen Shicun, and I used to be the leader of the No. 3 Praetorian Guard Team of the Time and Space Weapons Bureau."

"Oh oh, it's okay, it's amazing."

"And what's your name?"

"Me? My name is Shen Qing, and I was originally the leader of the 'Nightingale' team of the Black Record Book Investigation Section, but when you came, I became the deputy leader. ”

"That'...... I'm so embarrassed. ”

My tacit understanding with him went from zero to a hundred, and each time it became better and better. The so-called tacit agreement is fake, it's just that they are used to each other's figures. When you are on a mission, there is the other party's voice, the other party's figure, the other party's taste, and the other party's words. It sounds strange, but that's the evidence.

Eighth Second......

This winter, the third plane was chilling and the snow melted. In my mind, the words "Chu Yunan" are deeply engraved. It turned out that he was the Son of Prophecy, and even if I had never met him, I would remember the name fondly. He is the son of Chu Chengfeng, the director of the Divine Power Bureau, and the grandson of the weapon master Chu Jiuzhang. Despite such a huge background, he is still the prophetic child of this world, so I have to protect him from being used by the 16th Central Bureau.

When I came to First Plane, I was drawn to this small, ordinary city. Every grass and tree seems spotless, and the ordinary and vulgar life is the future pursued by revolutionaries. When I first saw the Child of Prophecy, I admit that I was a little skeptical, and my first impression was that I thought it was the girl next to me. Unexpectedly, the rumored son of prophecy is actually a boy with a bag who escapes faster than a rabbit.

Although this is the case, he is the son of prophecy in rumor, then I will keep my promise that I will protect him and never let him fall into the wrong hands.

Ten seconds were longer than I expected, and I didn't know what else I wanted to say, I had already said what I had to say. In the past half of my life, there have been no legendary deeds, nor any glorious years. If I have to say one great thing, is it great that I gave my life for the son of prophecy?

Hahaha enough, it's actually a good thing to be remembered. I only hope that when I die, my name will be engraved on the Red List by the Order. Forgive me for nagging in my heart, so that the rest of the time is over quickly, and the pain is only a matter of moments.

Chu Yunan...... It's a pleasure to meet you, I'm the head of the 'Peacock Eyes' team in the CIA's Coordinate Investigation Section...... Chen ten inches. Maybe you won't have time to remember my name, but you should remember me, and I'm sorry to scare you, but I'm not harmless to you. I was just...... I want to protect you, I want to persuade you to join the Daybreak organization, they ...... It protects you. You are an extraordinary child of prophecy and the most special savior I have ever met, please don't waste your identity as a child of prophecy, it can bring you blood and revolution. ”

"I know you must be scared inside, and I want to comfort you, but my time is running out. Well...... You also have a name called Achu, right, quite a special name...... It's mundane. Achu ...... You must learn to be brave, because cowardice cannot achieve great things, let alone the great cause of the revolution. You are indeed the most unusual hero I have ever met, the savior of the wreckage. ”

"Even if you don't have great skills, you don't know anything, you don't know how to do swordsmanship, you don't know any skills in novels. But you must have a brave heart, a person's counterattack is not to see how powerful he is, even if this is really the case...... the word 'counterattack' is not suitable for you, 'growth' is more suitable for you. I hope you will grow up and one day be able to take charge of your own work. ”

"Hahaha, what else am I going to say? I don't know myself, I'm not going to say sensationalism, eh...... That's the end of it. It doesn't make any sense to go on, it's good to die young, at least I do something that sacrifices myself. Just let me count down the rest of the time and let it disappear on me. ”

"Time...... Hurry up and go, take me ...... Away from this ordinary city, my family may be waiting for me somewhere. ”

"Achu ...... Live proudly, you brave son of prophecy. ”

Time is like a mirror, shattered in an instant, the soul returns to the real world, and all time passes normally. In that shout, life fell. The withered and withered flower ends the short time of its life. It's a pity that the flowers have a reopening day, and no one is young.

"Ten inches!" Shen Qing was faintly heard shouting, unable to rejuvenate his life, and time was powerless.

"Alas...... Shen Qing, I will accompany you on a mission in the next life, forget it in this life, it's a pleasure to meet you......"

"Seven...... Six...... Five...... Four...... Three...... Two...... One...... Zero...... Goodbye to the world, goodbye...... Chu Yunan, the son of prophecy. ”

The hanging lights in the operating room dimmed instantly, and Shen Qing sat on the ground, his face haggard, proving that hope had been lost. Looking at the three words "during surgery" from green to dark, does it mean that there is hope from existence to nothing, or does it mean that there is no hope at all from beginning to end?

The doctor came out of the operating room, he took off his mask, and his hesitant face finally spat out the stinging words, "Mourn and change." ”

Shen Qing curled up on the ground and bowed his head in silence, he didn't complain, and the doctor didn't say a word, sighed and turned to leave.

"You...... What a big fool. ”
