Xie Qingcheng waited for He Yu in the suite for a long time.
Without a cigarette, the wait became extraordinarily long, but he still waited.
The TV in the room was playing. Almost all the channels received here were English. The only Chinese channel was broadcasting entertainment variety shows. Some stars were laughing and laughing. off.
He leaned on the sofa and thought, if there was no such thing as the Guangzhou naval battle, He Yu would have graduated from university now. With his ability, he must have found a good job and started a project, and maybe he will be able to see his works on TV or in theaters in a year or two.
After Xie Qingcheng matured, he didn't like watching any films, and he rarely went to the cinema, but he thought that if it was made by He Yu, he would watch it.
He Yu is special.
He had a lot of words in his heart that he wanted to say to this special person tonight.
Only tonight can I finally tell this person.
He wanted to wait for He Yu to come back, so he said to him, kid, three years ago, you gave me all your trust in the world, but you almost died because of me.
I feel so guilty that no matter what you did afterwards, I never resented you. I was just thinking that if you vented all your resentment and you could change back to the way you were before, that would be good too.
I owe you after all.
After all, I didn't want to live that much anymore.
He wanted to wait for He Yu to come back, so he said to him, I'm sorry, He Yu, I hurt the only person in the world who said "I need you" ardently. You gave me your whole heart with both hands. Life and dignity guard me, and would rather carry the name of crime than make me sad.
If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't believe there would be such love in the world.
But this kind of love has become a cold nameless monument in the cemetery when I want to respond.
I'm sorry, in fact, I even hate myself, why can I be so ruthless.
I didn't expect you to let go of your hatred, but you still told me in the end, I don't hate you anymore.
- "I don't hate you anymore, don't be afraid."
Xie Qingcheng wanted to tell He Yu that he was not afraid of death.
He is not afraid of death or pain, he is not afraid of stigma, and he is not afraid of being poor and white.
He is an upright and upright man, and he only asks for a clear conscience. But He Yu made him feel guilty. The suicide note that fell after the naval battle became the biggest guilt in his life.
He was actually afraid that He Yu had always hated him.
So that day when He Yu hugged him and said that he didn't hate or quarrel, he already felt enough and didn't dare to ask for more. And the time spent on Mandela Island made him feel like a dream. Sometimes he can even feel the warmth similar to that year in this dream, but he is slow in emotion, and he has not been sure for a long time whether it is his illusion.
Xie Qingcheng sighed softly and closed his eyes.
He wanted to wait for He Yu to come back, so he said to him, He Yu, are you still willing to dance with me
In that bistro, or right here.
Are you still willing
He wanted to wait for He Yu to come back.
He wants to wait for He Yu to come back...
Xie Qingcheng waited minute by minute while thinking about it.
At the end, he just fell asleep vaguely on the sofa.
patter...
It seems to be raining outside. In the sound of the rain, he dreamed of what He Yu looked like when he was still studying at school.
At that time, I laughed a little green and a little ruffian, and there was some cunning and viciousness in the gentle language.
In his sleep, he seemed to have returned to the Shanghai University campus four years ago. During the garden party, he and He Yu were also trapped on a Neverland.
The island and the school are far away. In the middle of the lake, He Yu used a shielding device to make it isolated from the world. In fact, it is very similar to the current situation.
They were driven into the cave by a heavy rain to avoid the rain. The cave had graffiti from previous students, which was named "Secret Utopia". He Yu asked him if he wanted to learn from the predecessors and write something on the cave wall, but he didn't answer. Refused.
He vaguely remembered what He Yu asked at that time: "Xie Qingcheng, don't you have any dreams?"
Back then, he felt that his life had no meaning, no possibilities, no expectations, and no desires, so he never answered He Yu properly.
And at this moment, in the dream, he felt that after these four years, he finally had an answer.
Teach you how to set up a reading page, come and see!
He looked at the face of the young man in the cave, the cocoon in his heart was lightly bitten, and a butterfly was about to fly out with fluttering wings—
"Well. I have a wish." Different from four years ago, he walked up to He Yu in his dream and stood side by side with the boy in front of the secret utopia.
"Then you can write it here." The boy handed him the stone.
Xie Qingcheng took the stone, but did not write anything on the cave wall.
He just turned around and looked at He Yu. After looking at it for a long time, he raised his hand and hugged the boy.
Xie Qingcheng closed his eyes, and there seemed to be blood and tears dripping from the end of his eyes.
He said, "I hope that one day, when I return to the Ferris wheel, I can see you again. He Yu."
Like tossing a coin at the Wishing Pond, the stone gently fell to the ground.
In the next second, the ground suddenly turned into a glacial lake, the lake melted into autumn water, the autumn water swayed, and the ripples expanded infinitely.
He hugged He Yu on the lake.
In the reflection of the lake, only a rag doll bear with a balloon was standing alone.
People come and go, it doesn't know if it can wait for the child who will say "Would you hug me?", it doesn't know if it can wait for the boy with the same gentle eyebrows and eyes as before.
It's getting dark.
The playground is closing.
The Muppet Bear stood blankly, waiting for the last hope...
will you be back...
He Yu, you...
"Dang, dang-"
There was a slight tingling pain on the wrist, Xie Qingcheng felt the weightlessness of stepping on the air, he suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.
Outside the window, it was really raining, and the damp wind was blowing in through the slightly open window.
The morning light has broken, and the cloud layer reveals the light of the morning sun after the rain. Xie Qingcheng calmed his heartbeat and slowly came back to his senses.
He raised his wrist and saw that it was the modified Fengbo bracelet that vibrated. He inadvertently put it to his ear, connected it, and glanced at the clock on the wall at the same time.
It's already seven in the morning...
His heart sank heavily.
He Yu has not returned to the room.
"Hey."
"Hello, Xie Qingcheng." It was not He Yu who called him with the bracelet, but the commander-in-chief.
Xie Qingcheng's heart fell directly to the bottom, but he responded quickly: "I am here."
"He Yu tried to contact you with a bracelet last night.
, it was about 3:30 in the morning, you didn't pick up, he thought you should be asleep. There are many eyes and ears around him, and there is no way to try more, so he contacted the headquarters. "The commander-in-chief said, "He said he wanted to apologize to you, and he couldn't see you alone before the mission. "
Xie Qingcheng was suffocating slightly. He was not so concerned about the issue at this time. He asked: "What happened to He Yu? He didn't come back last night, what happened? Did he tell you guys? ?"
"Don't worry, he's fine. But Mandela has developed a device to expand the influence of blood Gu, and he worked with them all night yesterday to perfect that device." The commander-in-chief said, "Mandela Knowing that we will have a second attack soon, they want to complete the blood Gu equipment before that, so they are racing against time."
Hearing that He Yu was fine, Xie Qingcheng was slightly relieved.
Fortunately, it is not the worst situation. If Duan Wen knew that He Yu and himself were going to act this afternoon to destroy the most advanced weapon on the island, the rapid cold light, then the consequences would be unimaginable.
Xie Qing said: "Then I will contact him now..."
"You can't get in touch."
Xie Qingcheng was startled: "Why?"
"We couldn't get in touch. After he finished the test, he had to turn on the deployed equipment and deal with what he had to do today. These were the last rounds of investigation before the battle. He had to be very cautious, so he turned off all the Get in touch with him."
Xie Qingcheng gritted his teeth: "Then did he say when he will open the passage?"
"It's estimated to be before the mission starts," said the commander-in-chief, "Duan Wen and the others seem to be aware of his strangeness. He is being watched closely, and they have to find a way to paralyze the other party and not affect you. If everything goes well, start the action. The time will be four o'clock in the afternoon, before that, you must rest well and wait patiently for his action at four o'clock."
"… "
Teach you how to set up a reading page, come and see!
The commander-in-chief didn't hear Xie Qingcheng's response, so he was a little anxious and asked, "Do you understand?"
"… Understood."
After Xie Qingcheng hung up the call, a deep sense of anxiety surged up.
He was very worried about He Yu.
But he also knew that he had no way to help He Yu right now. The commander-in-chief was right. Recharging his energy and waiting for He Yu's active contact was the only thing he could do and the only thing he should do.
After all, they didn't have much time to talk about their personal affairs.
Time passed by, and the sun emerged from behind the thick clouds, and was dimly obscured by the clouds.
one hour... another hour...
Xie Qingcheng sat at the desk, playing with his long fingers crossed, staring at the retro-style alarm clock on the table without blinking.
The dark clouds have completely dissipated, and the sky over Mandela Island is clear, but it is getting late, and the sun has lost its most violent force and reclined lazily against the sky.
It's already three-fifty in the afternoon.
Xie Qingcheng was ready before that. He put on contact lenses, put on clothes that were convenient for movement, and finished wearing Fengbo's built-in headphones.
three-fifty-eight... three-fifty-nine...
click.
The skeletonized brass hour hand trembled to the exact four o'clock position.
Xie Qingcheng held his breath and opened his eyes. When the time came, he waited for the door of the bedroom to be opened.
Da, Da, Da... He heard footsteps, from far to near, from the end of the corridor to the door of his room, and stopped.
Xie Qingcheng got up, his heart was pounding and drumming, ready to cooperate
He Yu's response, however—
"Mr. Xie." The door creaked open, and Xie Qingcheng's expression changed slightly.
Not He Yu.
It was the girl from the crew who had been brainwashed. She opened her empty eyes and held up her cleaning tool: "I'll clean up your room for you."
-at this time? !
Xie Qingcheng had a vague feeling of unease, but he still stabilized the scene. The more critical it was, the more chaos it would become. He pretended to calmly replied, "You can do it."
The girl gave a shallow bow and came in with the tools.
Like the hotel room service, He Yu's room was indeed cleaned every day, but it was irregular, and I didn't expect it to happen today.
Xie Qingcheng sat down and pretended to lower his head to read a book, but in fact he calmly used his peripheral vision and hearing to judge what the girl was doing and how long it would take for her to leave.
The cleaning time was not long, the girl cleaned up for about ten minutes, then mechanically bowed to Xie Qingcheng again and exited.
At this time, the time has pointed to 4:13.
But He Yu still didn't appear, and the wiring at the headquarters in the storm system couldn't reach him either. Xie Qingcheng didn't know what happened in front of him, so he stood up and wandered around the window anxiously. The headquarters attack was at 6 o'clock. The time left for them was not too generous, and now it has been delayed by 13 minutes.
What exactly happened to He Yu
Xie Qingcheng was in the fog, when he suddenly heard a movement outside the door, he turned back suddenly—
"Sir, I'm sorry."
As if a bucket of ice water was poured into his stomach, Xie Qingcheng felt extremely disappointed.
It turned out to be the girl again: "I forgot the washcloth in the shower room, can I go get it?"
"… Go ahead."
The girl went, walked through the whole house, went to the innermost shower room and took her cleaning cloth, then returned to the door, greeted Xie Qingcheng again, and left.
Xie Qingcheng watched the heavy teak door slam shut behind her, his tense body loosened slightly, but his heart became more and more anxious - after this back and forth, another five minutes passed.
It was almost 4:30, half an hour was wasted by Sheng Sheng, and the uneasy voice of the headquarters correspondent came from the headset: "He Yu hasn't appeared yet?"
"not yet."
"It's really terrible. It will take a certain amount of time to destroy the rapid cold light. If he doesn't get it done, I am afraid that the entire landing plan will be changed because of this."
Teach you how to set up a reading page, come and see!
Xie Qingcheng's heart aroused when he heard it. His lips moved very slightly, and he lowered his voice and yelled at the person in the headset: "Can't you try to force him to contact him through the Fengbo system?"
The headquarter correspondent was a little embarrassed: "... He Yu has transformed the Fengbo system, and he has mastered the control end of the headset. You are not ignorant of his ability to write programs, he... "
Xie Qingcheng was about to scold someone when he heard a hissing sound in his headset, and the awkward explanation from the headquarter correspondent who was stumbling like a shoelace was suddenly interrupted.
What followed into the channel was an incomparably clear voice: "Xie Qingcheng, look back."
Conditioned reflex, he did as he was told, Xie Qingcheng's pupils shrank abruptly when he turned around. If it wasn't for the circumstances, he would have cursed outrageously.
It's outside the window!
There was a small helicopter hovering outside the window—that thing that looks like a mechanical genius in the eyes of normal people. Xie Qingcheng had seen it at the window a few days ago, but it was not that close.
At such a close distance, Xie Qingcheng thoroughly saw the structure of the helicopter. To match the virtual reality
Shadow, this small helicopter has been carefully designed, it uses almost all translucent materials, aircraft, and also equipped with weapons. In addition, this small helicopter is also distributed with many emitters flashing fluorescent light, it seems that it should be a fixed point system of projection.
He Yu was sitting in the driver's seat, and the wind after the rain blew his black Mandela uniform, while Chen Man was behind him, who had been brought out by him, and was waving to Xie Qingcheng.
"Thank you brother!"
"Xie Qingcheng." He Yu looked at Xie Qingcheng's face against the sunlight outside the window. He stayed up all day and night, and his face was a little haggard, but when he saw Xie Qingcheng, he still smiled, just because he didn't come back on time, and the night he promised to spend alone, after all, was due to a combination of yin and yang. , became an empty promise of cattle and sheep in the competition, and there was a hint of sadness in his smile.
Originally, he had a lot to say, but at this moment, he could only say one sentence: "... I'm sorry, it's been a long wait."
Xie Qingcheng looked into his eyes—
"It's fine. You'll be fine."
The more one has, the easier it is to be dissatisfied, and the less one has, the easier it is to be satisfied.
Therefore, at this moment, Xie Qingcheng really felt that he had let go of the heart that had been holding him for a day and a night. It was enough to see He Yu at this moment. Whether he came or not for last night's appointment was not the most important thing.
Thousands of words and thousands of words have been lingering for a long time, it is better to say: "You are safe."
As long as you are safe, there are still many days to come.
After this mission is over, they will have countless days and nights to get along with.
According to the original plan, He Yu managed to take them out of the basement, but now the situation has changed suddenly, He Yu actually chose the route of heaven.
The window opened, and He Yu controlled this special small helicopter and flew closer, so that Xie Qingcheng could get closer.
Xie Qingcheng: "You... so, aren't you afraid of Mandela's discovery?"
"This is my alternative. I did it yesterday. The virtual projection can deceive the Dream Breaker, and in turn, it can deceive Mandela." He Yu said, "I modified its projection. Now, if it is more than five meters, you can't see us on it. I'll put a rope ladder, come up quickly."
Xie Qingcheng was in poor health, but with good skills, it was not a problem to capsize and go out to pull the rope ladder. But when he moved, Chen slow couldn't help saying: "Brother, be careful of its wings, the feathers are very sharp."
He Yu said, "Be careful you touch the bulletproof glass."
Chen slow glanced at He Yu with a very puzzled look, and seemed to think that He Yu was crazy.
Yes, Chen Man's eyes are "Pegasus", only He Yu and himself are the real helicopters.
This is a conversation that they can understand, and no one else can understand. In the end, only the same kind can understand and respond to Long Ming.
Xie Qingcheng noticed Chen Slow's look at He Yu. Although Chen Slow didn't have any malice, he just thought it was strange, but Xie Qingcheng suddenly couldn't bear it at that moment. In those days without himself, He Yu insisted on the truth that only he knew, and was ridiculed and distrusted by everyone. What kind of loneliness would it be
Here and now, this lunatic in everyone's eyes, just like this, against the wind, in the cab, quietly looking at him with blushing eyes, that is a look waiting for a recognition in the long loneliness.
Xie Qingcheng thought that at this moment, He Yu didn't have to wait.
He said to He Yu, "Okay. I know."
The young man's eyes blinked, his eyelashes fell quickly, and his eye sockets seemed to be redder, but it was not because of exhaustion.
After the three assembled, He Yu controlled the small helicopter and drove in the direction of the rapid cold light.
Along the way, Chen Man and Xie Qingcheng explained why they were late. It turned out that Mandela had always kept an eye on He Yu and the others. It was clear that He Yu had confused the monitoring of obstacles that had to be dealt with yesterday, but before starting today, he found that there were several more secretly.
After He Yu confused those too, he realized that Mandela was very likely to conduct a surprise inspection of their actions. Sure enough, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the girl appeared, under the guise of cleaning, to observe whether there was any abnormality in the house, and after a dozen or so hours. Minutes later, after killing a carbine at a time, it was confirmed that Xie Qingcheng was still staying in the room as usual.
"Although I adjusted the old monitoring process and replaced it with the screen, you can still be seen reading in the bedroom during the time we were gone. But they don't really believe in real-time monitoring." He Yu said, "We had to hurry, so I changed my plan and didn't go to the basement."
Soon, the helicopter reached the sky above the woods and dived down from the golden clouds. They successfully reached the vicinity of the rapid cold light control room, but now Xie Qingcheng was watching, it was not the mecha lying on the ground, but the whole body. It's dead people and hyenas... They were strapped with a lot of weapons, detonators, and projection positioning devices, and they wore control rings in front of their foreheads.
He Yu patted him and asked him to look away from the half-rotting corpses.
"Don't look at it," he said softly to him. "What has happened can't be changed even if you look at it."
As he said that, he turned off the helicopter's operating engine and got off the plane first, stepping on the ground with his combat boots, shaking a thin layer of dust.
"Let's go."
