Chapter 8: Goodbye Mr. Tara
The little girl pointed to the tallest building in front of her and said,
"That's the Southern Headquarters," he says.
I looked at the 100-story building, where Kaede must be waiting for me.
My feelings for Kaede are very complicated, just like I said to Gao Cheng at the beginning, I can't say that I like it, maybe I can only feel it when I meet. I took Chunshu's hand and walked on the sidewalks on both sides of the road.
What I didn't expect was that there are still blind alleys in this high-tech city. The doors of the surrounding shops and restaurants are all closed, but the furnishings inside are new, there is not a trace of dust from the outside, and even the tableware on a few tables is brand new.
Chunshu didn't chirp as usual, probably because of what happened just now, her mood has not eased up. Her hands were cold, and there were tear stains in the corners of her eyes.
I pushed open the door of the building, but I was nervous because I didn't know what was going to happen next.
To my surprise, the atmosphere inside was very different from the outside, the lights were bright, and there was a woman in uniform standing at the counter in front of me, who waved at me.
"Hello, I'm the person sent by the headquarters to receive you, please come with me here."
She took us to the elevator and swiped our card to the 97th floor.
"Sir, I can only take you here, I don't have access to the upper levels. Mr. Tara's office is located on the 97th floor, No. 307, the innermost location. ”
The elevator was running fast, seemed to have been modified, and within a few seconds it had stopped on the 97th floor, giving me no time to relax.
I got off the elevator with Chunshu. The little girl was very frightened and hid in front of me. Judging by the way he looked, if she hadn't said it, maybe no one would have known that she had been here.
Directly in front of me is a corridor where I can't see the end clearly, and it's too late to regret it now, so I have to go on hard.
At the end of the hallway, a majestic figure suddenly appeared, and I continued to walk forward, a man in his mid-30s, with strong pectoral muscles and striking silver-white hair.
He also saw me, and without speaking, walked in the opposite direction to me.
I rubbed shoulders with him. He didn't do anything to me. Suddenly! I felt that something was broken, not something in reality, and I turned to look at the spring bundle, which was gone, and the man who passed me was gone.
I touched the wall with my hand, it was real, it wasn't an illusion. It's not any other space either. I'm still in that hallway, but I don't know if I should go any further.
At this moment, a hand grabbed me from behind, and I looked behind me, and Chunshu looked at me with doubt,
"Why did it stop?"
I was also stunned, was everything that happened just now an illusion, I forgot to go to the front of the corridor, the scene actually switched, I retreated again, and the majestic figure still appeared at the end of the corridor.
"Chunshu, this is the first time you've walked here."
Chunshu didn't seem to understand what I was saying.
"This is my third time at the headquarters, and the first two times my sister brought me here."
I walked forward and brushed him by again, and the feeling returned. I hurriedly turned around, and like last time, the spring bundle was gone, and the man was gone.
This time I was not in a hurry and sat on the ground. With my back against the wall, sure enough, the spring bunch didn't appear, and it seems that as long as I don't keep walking, I'll stay at this point in time forever.
I understood what was being cut off, it was my time, the time I passed by the man, and he skillfully cut it off. Is this power, it's a terrible thing.
"Senior, is this kind of bullying of newcomers really good?"
The surrounding scene has not changed,
"I don't know much about power, but you shouldn't be able to keep this effect on forever, as long as I don't do anything.
I'm going to stay in this moment forever, and there's not much I can do about it. I guess my seniors were just testing me. ”
A rough voice came,
"Boy, your analysis is very correct, it seems that I really can't do anything about you at present, you are worthy of being the person that Duoliang likes, come with me."
I got up and walked towards the end of the hallway, and the man suddenly appeared in front of me.
Chun Shu behind him also saw the man, and said in surprise,
"Teacher Zhou Zheng, you're here too!"
"It's been a year, the little girl still hasn't grown taller, it's about to start school, it seems that the progress is going well."
The little girl said excitedly
"Well, it's already a second-class mid-level."
"Hold on, with such a growth rate, it is not a problem to graduate smoothly, the academy itself is cruel, come on."
The man turned to me,
"Let's go, Tara has been waiting for you for a long time."
He pushed open the door of the room, and the smell of red wine came to his face, and the room was full of wooden structures, furniture, bookcases, wine cabinets, and office desks were all made of mahogany. Very Chinese style.
Tara opened a bottle of red wine, poured it into the goblet in front and shook it. smiled at me,
"We've met before, but at that time you were in the hospital bed, and the headquarters was very busy, so I didn't have time to greet you, please do it, don't be restrained, I don't like any rules."
