Chapter 7: Post-War Conversations
"The destruction of the visible will inevitably lead to the disappearance of the invisible. What sentient beings do not remember, we remember for them; What is remembered by all beings, we keep for them.'"
- Sparrow, Rememberer
Yaoluo seemed to have had a long, long dream.
The shackles of the tangible are reduced to nothingness, and the immortal spirit lives on forever.
Transform yourself into a free spirit and swim in the infinite galaxy.
The starry sky is no longer a barrier, the dark forest is broken, distance is no longer a boundary, and the law of all things unfolds before the eyes, spiraling upwards and rising until it rises above the high branches of the imaginary number.
"Yaoluo, Yaoluo, go climb."
"Yaoluo, Yaoluo, go and explore!"
When he opened his eyes, Yaoluo saw an unfamiliar ceiling, the ticking sound of the instrument was repeated mechanically, the soft light reflected on his face, and the disinfectant vapor slightly entered his nose, even if he didn't look at it, Yaoluo knew where he was.
The voice was still echoing in his head, but the touch of his body had pulled him back to reality.
"Am I not dead?"
His throat was dry and he couldn't speak, as if someone had noticed Yao Luo's movements, and a slender hand stretched out from the right side, slowly introducing the sweet and clear liquid into Yao Luo's mouth.
"It's good to be alive." Yao Luo sighed softly.
"yes, it's the first time I've seen a kid like you." A gentle female voice answered on the side.
Yao Luo tilted his head, and his eyes were red like fire.
"Himeko." Yaoluo was speechless, and Himeko's eyes were as gentle as water, and she sat quietly on the side, looking like she had been for a while.
"Little March, Danheng and they take turns to take care of you, Esta and Alain have come to see you separately after hearing about your injuries, and Xing also has some injuries, but she is a little faster than you."
Yaoluo quietly listened to Ji Zi's narration of what had happened recently, and raised his right hand with some difficulty.
The shocking scars were gone, and only the different colors of skin on the palms of the hands testified to the experience, and the new skin was as smooth as a baby and looked almost not like its own hands.
"Moderate burns all over the body, severe burns on both hands, multiple fractures, muscle strains, fortunately, the medical level of the Black Tower space station is not bad, all your injuries have healed before the seven systems, and the rest is just to recuperate." Himeko carefully counted the injuries on Yaoluo's body.
"It doesn't sound like something that happened to me." After saying this, Yao Luo has a new understanding of the medical level of this era.
This kind of injury, put on the earth, not to mention the disability, at least at the level of not being able to get out of bed for half a year, but except for feeling a little weak, there is no pain in the body.
"How long did I sleep?" Yao Luo wanted to know how much time had passed.
"Two and a half days." Jizi had to answer all questions, and after she looked at Yaoluo and was silent for a while, she asked:
"Yaoluo, the question I asked you before, you can think about it, all the members of the train crew are very grateful for your efforts this time, you have a good rest during this time, the Star Dome train will stay at the space station until you make a decision." Himeko's words were firm and sincere, and her concern for Yaoluo was beyond words.
"Okay." Yaoluo actually has the answer in his heart, but he still needs some time to precipitate, come to the space station, be attacked, fight, find someone, fight again, and finally have a chance to breathe, the Doomsday Beast was born again, disturbing Yaoluo is not at peace, everything that happened before, not counting the time to heal and heal, is only a few hours.
Speaking of the Doomsday Beast, Yao Luo saw the last abnormality of the star, and thought that he was going to die in the unknown aoe of the star, but he didn't expect that in the end, he would be fine.
Could it be that the star also suddenly exploded, using the positive energy of friendship and love to control that power all of a sudden?
As if seeing Yaoluo's doubts, Himeko explained with a smile: "The matter of the star was solved by another passenger of the train crew, you may not have seen it, he is the person I mentioned to you when I was in the transport section before, named Walter Young. ”
"Sure enough!" A hint of clarity flashed in Yao Luo's heart. Before passing out, he faintly heard a voice full of security, if there was anyone who could save everything in that situation, he was the only one in his heart.
Taking Yaoluo's expression into her eyes, Himeko thought of Walter's previous request.
"Yaoluo, when you have a good rest, whether you decide to get in the car or not, I hope you can talk to Yang." Himeko's expression showed a hint of pleading. "He rarely asks me for anything, and seeing the look on your face, I know you know a little bit about Walter, so it's okay to say just a few words, okay, Yoro?"
Yaoluo shook his head and showed a hint of a smile, "Himeko, you don't have to be so polite to me, I myself have a question that I want to discuss with Mr. Walter, this is my will, not a request." ”
Ji Zi breathed a sigh of relief, and Yaoluo's answer made her feel a lot more relieved.
"Himeko, believe me, a pioneering heart doesn't stop beating like this." Yaoluo looked at Himeko sincerely. "I need a little time to understand everything, and I'll tell you as soon as I make a decision in my mind."
As if he had found the answer he wanted from Yaoluo's eyes, Himeko stood up from the chair with satisfaction, took out a pure black mobile phone from behind him, and handed it to Yaoluo.
"This is, my phone?" Yao Luo saw a hint of familiarity in this unfamiliar fuselage, and asked uncertainly.
"That's right, the paramedics searched from your remaining clothes, and when they found it, the body had basically melted, and after being rescued by the Black Tower Staff, it was as good as new like you." Himeko replied in the affirmative.
Yaoluo looked at the mobile phone in front of him in disbelief, both familiar and unfamiliar, except for the shell, almost all the details were exactly the same as before.
"Blacktower Technology, trustworthy!" Yao Luo couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
Seeing Yaoluo's happy appearance, Himeko covered her mouth and chuckled, "Not really, they also added a new UI of the Interstellar Peace Company to it, and Esta paid out of her own pocket to help you become a communication member for a hundred years." I've added all the communication methods of the train crew, and when you're bored in bed, you can talk to them on March 7, and I think no one will refuse. ”
Yaoluo felt very warm about Himeko's intimacy, and after thanking him repeatedly, Himeko left.
"Hey—" Lying quietly on the bed, Yao Luo digested the information he had received so far.
He really crossed over.
Across the world, through time and space, to this world he didn't know and didn't want to come.
Without the excitement or indifference of most of the traversers, Yaoluo only has a sense of unreality from the heart.
Raise your right hand in a hospital gown, make a fist, open it, make a fist again, open it again.
"It's amazing." Yao Luo could feel the power of stigmata flowing in his veins, the beating of his heart was extraordinarily strong, the five senses were more sensitive than expected, the sound of blood flowing, the sound of bones rubbing, and the muscles that had been forcibly used before were adapting to the changing flesh.
In the mirror space in the spirit, the broken Heavenly Fire Holy Cut appeared in the space in the form of a card, the shape was similar to the light cone that Yao Luo had seen before, the damage had been mostly restored, and the flowing soul steel was automatically repairing its original form, and the two cores were basically unhindered.
The fragments of [memory] still swirled in circles.
In addition to the three inscrutable three golden rays, Yao Luo was already somewhat familiar with this mirror space.
Yao Luo transported a wisp of spiritual power without a master, and turned the spiritual power into a tentacle and probed towards the golden light.
The golden light is like an invisible and tasteless projection, no matter how Ren Yaoluo's spiritual power touches, it is like the wife in the wife's cake and the squid in the squid circle, which cannot be seen or touched.
"Forget it, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Yao Luo scratched his scalp that didn't exist in the mental space, and stopped caring about it for a while.
"Beep!" A prompt sound came from Yao Luo's new phone, and Yao Luo opened his eyes.
The operating system of the mobile phone is not much different from before, after clicking on a software that is very similar to a communication tool, what catches your eye is a group chat name with the characteristics of Yaoluo's hometown:
A family of the Star Dome Train.
"Poof."
Because it was too immediate, Yao Luo couldn't help but laugh even if he wanted to.
After opening the group with a forced smile, the familiar feeling made Yaoluo feel like he was home.
March 7: "Jizi, how's Yaoluo's situation?" ”
Himeko: "Don't worry, Xiao March, I just came back from there, Yaoluo's injury is almost healed, and the only thing left is to recuperate." ”
March 7: "Well, I still want to take a picture with him." I'd better wait for him to get out of bed. ”
Walter Young: "Speaking of star, she's just one day, don't exercise too hard, it's not good for your health." @星. ”
Star: "People are in the office of the Black Tower, simulating the concave division of the universe, don't cue." ⚆_⚆”
Walter Young: "Is it on Ms. Blacktower's side?" Well, don't forget to go to the medical department for a follow-up visit, recovery after surgery is very important. @星. ”
Star (don't cue): "Got it, (·•᷄ࡇ•᷅) Uncle Yang." ”
Dan Heng (invisible): "Yaoluo seems to be online." ”
March 7: "Ah, (৹o̴̶̷᷄́ฅo̴̶̷᷅৹) Really, Yaoluo, are you okay, how do you feel, are you better?" ◔.̮◔✧”
Yaoluo: "@全体人, don't worry, everyone, I'm much better, ᕙ(•ູ̤॒᷆•̤᷇)ᕘ₊°Thank you for taking care of me during my illness." ”
March 7: "Where, where, be polite to us." ”
Star: "@尧洛, when you have time to play with me, Heita seems to want to meet you." Ծ‸Ծ”
Yaoluo: "Okay, I'll go in a while." ”
Walter Young: "Hello, Yaoluo, I've heard Himeko about you, thank you for your willingness to talk to me, I also visited you a few times during your treatment, you are indeed a good boy with a strong will." ”
Yaoluo: "First meeting, Mr. Walter, I also look forward to talking to you face-to-face, and I believe that this day will not be too far away. ”
Walter Young: "Okay, I'll be waiting for you on the train." ”
March 7: "Wow, do Yaoluo and Uncle Yang know each other?" ”
Dan Heng (invisible): "Stupid, March, Yaoluo may be from the same planet as Mr. Walter, and don't say this to your face." ”
Walter Young: "It's all right, Danheng. It is also possible that I was mistaken, in the galaxy, similar planets are not absent, and according to the current theory, the galaxy can accommodate all possibilities. ”
Danheng (invisible): "........."
March 7: "........."
Star (don't cao): "Uncle Yang said well! ”
Himeko: "Okay, okay, don't disturb Yaoluo to rest, in a few days, a healthy Yaoluo will be able to meet everyone again." ”
The chat in the group ends with Himeko's words. Yaoluo put down his phone and lay quietly on the bed, recalling the conversation just now.
Sincere, unpretentious care, Yao Luo has not felt in a group of people who have known each other for a long time.
The tension and confusion of the first arrival in the other world disappeared unconsciously, and Yao Luo believed that his decision to join the Star Dome Train was not wrong.
Yao Luo rested quietly in the hospital bed, and the system time of the Black Tower space station gradually approached night.
The ward of the medical department was quiet, the lights were turned to the lowest, and Yao Luo slept peacefully.
A figure that is not tall appeared next to Yao Luo at some point, the appearance of a girl, the structure of the joints is eye-catching, exquisite appearance, gorgeous costumes, like a delicate doll, but the purple pupils are full of inquisitive curiosity, staring at Yao Luo's body, as if there is some shocking big secret in it.
"Himeko's train is really full of talents, yesterday just came a humanoid star core, and today there is an even more amazing kid."
"Are you right~~"
The girl's face gradually drew closer to Yaoluo's, as if this would make him see more clearly.
"Remembering the Star God, [Order]."
