On the second day after Mutt spoke, before Tasha had time to react, everything was a foregone conclusion, and it was too late to repent.
Tasha didn't go when Mutter was sent into the freezing glass case.
For some reason, she was afraid, she didn't dare to see that scene with her own eyes—as long as she didn't see it with her own eyes, she could still lie to herself that Mutt was still alive, and the brother she loved so much was still alive, just sleeping.
With the current freezing technology, the longest time to freeze a human body is more than two hundred years. Once frozen, it must not be thawed halfway, otherwise it will undoubtedly die. Mutt's parents chose the longest time, because they didn't know how many years it would take for the medical technology to develop to the point where Mutt's disease could be cured. for the longest time.
What this means, they know very well.
The moment Mutt was placed in a refrigerated glass case meant that they would never see their child again for the rest of their lives.
This is a farewell, the cruelest farewell, that they will never see each other again in their lifetime.
When Tasha regained her strength from the trance, Mute's parents had already left this sad place, and they didn't even meet her before leaving in a hurry, but asked her father to pass her a letter.
She didn't read the letter, and she didn't blame her aunt for leaving without saying goodbye.
She understands, she understands. If it were her, if she met her aunt and the others, she would probably break down in an instant. She thought she would be very sad, she thought she would cry a lot, but she didn't, she was calmer than she imagined, she didn't even shed a tear.
Her life has returned to calm, just like a long time ago, she went to school normally, was an ordinary student, and lived the most ordinary life.
The only difference is that the child is missing from her life.
Every time on the way home, it seems that Mutt is still smiling at her by her side; when sitting in a daze in that familiar dessert shop, it seems that he can see the child eating ice cream happily; At home, she would stare blankly at the empty sofa beside her in a daze. In the past, many times, the figure of Mute curled up on the sofa like a small animal and sleeping soundly seemed to be right in front of her eyes...
...
On this day, on the way from school, Tasha saw the tall gymnasium. She stared at it in a daze for a long time, and by a strange coincidence, she walked into the empty gymnasium.
There was no one in the gymnasium now. It was late in the evening and the sun was setting. The green football field looked a little dim at this moment. She turned a corner and went up to the stands, sat down and stared at the empty lawn in a daze.
In the past, many times, she sat in the stands like today, and the shouts of young and energetic boys sounded below. She still remembered the bright smiling faces of the children when they were with their friends on the grass at that time.
But now, on the still verdant green grass, no one can be seen...
Tasha sat there with her head bowed deeply and her face covered with her hands.
There was a dead silence all around, so quiet that no sound could be heard.
After an unknown amount of time, footsteps sounded in the completely darkened gymnasium. The footsteps moved from far to near, and finally stopped in front of her.
She didn't look up, a voice came from in front of her.
"Tassa Hassel, please come with me."
Tasha put down her hands covering her face, she lowered her head, and her eyes fell on the ground in front of her. The first thing that came into her sight was a pair of dark military boots.
She raised her head slowly, followed the long military boots upwards, and saw a strange man.
The man standing in front of her was wearing a straight military uniform. He stood very straight, like a rooted pine tree. He looked at her and spoke again, in a tough tone that could not be refused.
"Please come with me, someone wants to see you."
"..."
Tasha was silent for a while, then stood up.
She didn't refuse, she thought she could guess who the person who wanted to see her was.
...
……………
Yule walked into the living room, his black military boots stepping on the silver-white metal floor.
He is a young soldier in his early twenties, a member of the 'Starter' fleet, and at the same time, the guard of the commander of this fleet. At this moment, he was in the [Michael] flagship floating in the outer space of the earth, walked through the corridor, and came to the living room to report to his superior.
The door opened automatically with a beep, and to his surprise, the light in the living room was very dark, only one light was on, and the faint light barely illuminated the spacious living room.
The air in the living room was flowing all the time, keeping it fresh, with a light and fragrant wind blowing over the wall and passing by his side. He looked forward and saw his boss standing by the huge rectangular window. Through the transparent window, he could see the deep black cosmic stars outside, and in the endless black starry sky, a star The huge azure blue planet is moving slowly.
He saw his boss, the impossibly young major general who was envied by everyone, standing by the window, with eyes the same color as the planet, staring at the huge planet outside the window.
The fine black hair tips are scattered on the young man's long and narrow phoenix eyes, and the handsome side cheek that makes people feel emotional no matter how many times he looks at it is stern.
Although the lips were thin, they had sharp edges and corners, the lines were extremely cold and hard, and they looked full of vigor.
The faint starlight from the universe came in and fell on the face of the major general by the window, and the shadow of his broken hair shrouded his eye sockets, making it difficult for people to see clearly his eyes looking at the blue earth outside the window.
The only thing that can be seen is that he is standing there, his gaze on the earth is so focused that he can't see anything else, and it seems to have an indescribable fog.
"Your Excellency, Major General, Second Lieutenant Wendy requests an audience."
Standing up straight at the door with a snap, Yule, who stood erect, shouted to his superiors.
If you talk about the person Yule respects and admires the most in his life, it is the person in front of him.
He fanatically admired this major general who was younger than him, not only him, everyone in the fleet, all those who had followed the major general for five years, all admired the major general from the bottom of their hearts just like him.
During the five dangerous and difficult five years of outer space exploration, this man conquered all his subordinates by his own strength. It should be said that the reason why the 'Starter' fleet was able to return safely and make great achievements was all under the leadership of this person.
The young general was a born leader.
After Yule reported so loudly, the major general still stood still, his eyes still fixed on the blue planet outside the window.
"Let him come here."
He said, indifferently.
"Yes!"
Yule raised his hand and turned on the communicator on his ear. As soon as he pressed it, the semi-circular blue-black communicator on his ear lit up, and the thin microphone automatically extended to his mouth.
"Second Lieutenant Wendy, please come to the living room."
The second lieutenant soon came over, followed by a girl whom Yule didn't know. The girl didn't wear a military uniform, and she didn't look like a soldier in terms of appearance or walking posture. She should be an ordinary citizen. Yule's heart moved a little. He remembered that Lieutenant Wendy left the Michael ship and headed to Earth after receiving the order of the major general in the morning. Then, it should be the major general's intention to bring this girl here.
Looking again, I saw that although the girl looked a bit haggard, she was young and beautiful, especially when she looked at the major general with an expression he couldn't describe, which seemed sad and hesitant. A layer of mist gradually appeared in his eyes, no matter how he looked at it, he had an ambiguous relationship with the major general.
Could it be the lover the major general had before he left the earth
... Well, it must be the major general's lover!
Seeing Lieutenant Wendy turn and leave after bowing, Yule made a conclusion in his heart.
All along, in front of anyone, the major general has always looked stern and expressionless, making it impossible to guess his thoughts at all. Although he seldom speaks, even if he just stands there, the invisible oppressive feeling can make everyone shudder.
These subordinates respect and fear this boss, even the most stubborn soldiers dare not show presumptuousness in front of the major general.
It's almost like an emotionless robot.
Before being conquered by the charm of this young major general, someone once said this behind his back, but even if the person who said this has surrendered to the major general, that person still mutters like this sometimes, of course he said now The emotional color contained in these words is completely different from before.
Thinking of this, Yule only felt itchy in his heart.
I don't know if the always ruthless major general will lose control and show any emotions when he sees his beloved again after five years
The young guard thought so in his heart, and secretly glanced in the major general's direction.
At this glance, the corner of his mouth twitched. He thought that the major general would reveal his emotions because of this meeting, but he didn't even look in the direction of the girl when he saw the major general. He was still standing by the window with an indifferent expression. The eyebrows and eyes are as cold and hard as sculptures, without the slightest trace of moving.
The girl's eyes were firmly fixed on the major general's profile, as if she wanted to penetrate this man.
But when Yuer saw the major general, he didn't seem to feel the girl's eyes staring at him... Maybe it wasn't that he didn't feel it, but he just didn't care. He still stood there, staring at the slowly turning blue eyes outside the window color planet.
The living room was very quiet, so quiet that Yule felt suffocated.
He didn't know why he felt this way, but he just felt that his heart was oppressed and uncomfortable. He could only lower his head deeply, looking at his nose, nose, nose and heart, making himself a stone sculpture.
But this quietness got out of control the second he lowered his head.
"Why are you late?"
The first one who couldn't bear to speak was Tasha.
"Why can't you come back sooner?"
She knew that there was no reason for her reprimand, and she knew that she was venting her anger, but she couldn't control herself.
She yelled uncontrollably at the person opposite, completely ignoring the face of the young guard who was instantly pale with fright.
"Why can't I find it a few days earlier!"
Why didn't the kid leave before—
In the past few days, Tasha seemed to be dreaming, and she couldn't see the reality in a daze. She always felt that maybe in the next second, her brother would appear by her side and smile at her as usual.
But at this moment, the appearance of this person forcefully brought her back to reality from the escape, and at this moment she finally clearly understood the reality that she had lost that child forever.
That made her emotionally collapse in an instant, and the grief hidden deep in her heart exploded at the moment of seeing this person, and she unreasonably vented all her resentment on this person that she could see in front of her eyes.
She herself thought that she was probably crazy, and dared to yell at a high-ranking alliance major general like this, but her grief had made her completely lose her mind at this moment. She thought of Mute lying on the hospital bed looking at the silhouette of this person on TV and then smiling at herself... her heart ached so much that she couldn't help it.
"It's all because of you! Because of you—"
"This is Your Majesty the Major General—you are too presumptuous!"
Watching his boss turn pale with fright, the guard stepped forward and held down Tasha, whom he regarded as a crazy woman.
Tasha, who was pushed down to the ground, didn't yell anymore, maybe those few impulsive yells had exhausted all her strength. She was pressed by Yule, her face was pressed against the cold metal ground, she felt that the ground was as cold as ice, the chill penetrated into the bone marrow, and her bones were trembling from the cold.
The living room was quiet again, the major general who couldn't see his expression didn't speak, and Tasha, who was lying on the ground in a daze, didn't make a sound. Only the sound of Yule's rapid breathing due to nervousness echoed in the room.
After an unknown amount of time, footsteps sounded in the quiet room. The heavy military boots stepped on the metal floor and made a dull knocking sound, shaking Tasha's eardrums. She was pressed to the ground, her face pressed against the floor, and she could only raise her eyes slightly.
She saw the pair of black boots standing in front of her eyes, and she didn't know what gesture the major general made to the guard who was pressing her down. Tasha felt the hand that was firmly pressing down on her loosen. She took a breath and slowly raised her upper body, but she didn't raise her head.
For some reason, she didn't want to look up, she didn't want to meet that person's eyes. Because she still remembers, in the past few years, Mute always said to her with a bright smile on countless times, this person's eyes are beautiful, blue like the earth in the starry sky, that is his The best eyes I've ever seen.
She just sat on the ground silently, with her head lowered, her messy hair fell on her cheeks, making her look a little embarrassed.
The room was still very quiet, the young major general just stood in front of her, still not saying a word.
She suddenly felt very powerless.
Mute has disappeared by her side forever, even if she vents her anger like this, what's the point
"...he saw you."
Tasha said that her expression had become calm.
"On the TV the day you got back."
She calmly relayed what Mutt said to this person.
"He said sorry."
Tasha finally heard that person speak, that person's voice was cold and hard like metal, so low that it gave people an invisible sense of oppression.
"I don't forgive," said the man.
Suddenly, Tasha's anger welled up, she suddenly raised her head and glared at the man.
As soon as she looked up, she met the man's eyes.
And at the moment when she met those eyes, her chest tightened suddenly, her mouth opened, and all the words that she wanted to taunt were all choked in her throat and she could no longer utter them.
The major general stood in front of her, looking down at her, his fine black hair scattered in front of his eyes, casting deep shadows in his eye sockets, his eyes seemed to have cracked frozen sword shadows.
"I won't forgive you," he said.
The man said that again, turned and left.
The moment he turned around, the edge of the dark cloak that was raised brushed over the temples of the girl who was kneeling on the ground in a daze.
"Yul, send her away."
"Yes!"
The guard who was stunned by the side stood at attention in shock. He took a step forward, grabbed one of Tasha's arms and forcibly pulled her up from the ground. Fearing that the girl would suddenly go mad again, he held on tight. But he was nervous in vain, and let him pull him up. Tasha didn't struggle at all, and she was dragged out of the door by him in a daze with a dazed look.
After pushing the girl out of the gate, Yule breathed a sigh of relief.
He followed closely behind and wanted to go out the door, but at the second he was about to step out the door, by a strange coincidence, he looked back.
In the dimly lit reception room, only the major general was left.
Yule saw the major general standing in front of the large glass window over there again, and put his raised hand on it.
He saw the major general lowered his head slightly, his forehead lightly pressed against the cold glass.
A sudden breeze blew the fine black hair, and the hair flew up on the forehead, and the shadow of the hair covering the major general's eye sockets also passed by.
At that second, Yul saw the major general's eyes.
His heart beat violently.
He didn't know why.
Before he had time to think about it, a situation suddenly appeared in front of him, and the girl who had been pushed out by him quietly ran forward. Yule was startled, and immediately chased after him.
Tasha ran forward, her mind was blank at this moment, only the eyes that were looking at her just now kept flashing in her memory.
She didn't run for long, but stopped after running a few steps.
She thought she was running away, wanting to run away from that man, not because of fear, but because of repression, a kind of repression that made her almost out of breath.
Tasha was standing against the metal wall, her breath was short of breath, she panted slowly, she leaned against the wall and slid to the ground little by little.
"... Damn..."
She sat on the cold metal floor, looking confused, slowly raised her right hand and clasped her chest tightly and forcefully, because at this moment there was a sore and sour feeling deep in her chest that made her almost unable to breathe. Painful feeling.
She sat on the ground with her head up, big tears fell from the corners of her red eyes.
Why
She raised her hands to cover her face, hot tears soaking her fingers.
The harder you try to wipe it with your hands, the more it will fall off.
She clenched her teeth and didn't make a sound, but she couldn't control the tears falling down.
Why is reality so cruel
She suddenly remembered the boy who came out of the water that she saw a long time ago when she was still very young.
The wet boy looked down at the tenderness of the child in his arms.
That was the most beautiful page in her memory.
[I do not forgive.]
The man said this to her, with that expressionless face, with such a cold tone, and with that cruel language.
She thought she should be angry, retort fiercely, and mock back, but at the moment when she met that person's eyes, she couldn't say a word.
She thought she shouldn't have looked into that person's eyes.
She couldn't describe that person's eyes, she just knew that as long as she saw that person's eyes at that moment, no matter who it was, she would never have the heart to say another word in front of that person.
...
The pain that really goes deep into the bone marrow needs no words.
But it can be seen by everyone.
Even an ignorant bystander can see it clearly.
...
Yule stood and looked at Tasha who was sitting on the cold ground with her knees curled up and crying silently. He was a little dazed and a little overwhelmed.
His mood at this moment was very complicated. When he left the living room, he looked back by a strange coincidence.
That glance made his heart beat violently for a moment.
He couldn't express how he felt when he saw it, but his heart was so heavy that he felt inexplicably uncomfortable. Although he didn't know anything about everything, he seemed to understand the reason why the girl in front of him shed tears uncontrollably after she left there as if she was running away.
…
At that time, he saw the major general standing quietly by the window, pressing his outstretched hand on the cold glass.
He saw the major general's forehead lightly pressed against the glass window, and the fine hair ends scattered in front of his eyes, casting a shallow shadow.
At the moment when the forehead was swept up, in the dim light of the stars passing through the window, he saw the eyes of the major general looking at the blue planet outside the window.
He had never seen such soft eyes from the major general's eyes.
He had never seen that kind of gaze that was so soft yet felt like it was gouging out from anyone.
[Will not forgive.]
The young guard still remembers the major general's cold tone when he said this.
But Yule felt that maybe in his life, he would never hear a more sad language than it.
...
…………………
I am still here, you are asleep.
When you wake up, I have turned to dust.
If you can't reach you with your hand, then the so-called birth and separation are no different from death.
[Feel sorry.]
I do not forgive.
...
…………………
After a long, long time, finally one day, the cold glass cover was slowly opened, and cold white mist gushed out from the glass cabinet.
The white mist slowly dissipated, revealing the boy whose complexion was so pale that it shrouded him almost transparently.
The eyelashes moved slightly, and the dark eyes slowly opened in the hazy mist.
