Chapter 37: old relationship

Views:

The seat back of the cab is a little high, and Sae's eyelids droop slightly when he speaks, and the line at the end of his eyes is slightly slanted, which takes away most of his aggressive temperament. It is a very confusing look. Even Chu Si was stunned for a moment, forgetting to break free from Sae Yang's fingers on his chin.

This way of speaking is somewhat ambiguous, which will give people the illusion of closeness.

In fact, many times, the way Sae Young speaks and acts towards him will make people have this illusion...

It wasn't like that at first.

In those years in the White Eagle Sanatorium, Sae Yang basically didn't speak to Chu Si properly, and of course, Chu Si didn't give a good face a few times. Every encounter can be called the enemy's road is narrow, and every conversation is stained with a strong smell of gunpowder.

Especially in the later period, Chu Si's character was smoothed and smoothed by himself, and he could talk peacefully with almost anyone, except for Sae Yang, he always seemed to have a way to instantly give Chu Si the thorns and hard bones hidden under his skin. Pick it up, you can't hold it down.

If you think about it carefully, the conversations between them are actually very brief. Counting the conversations that had to occur in the military academy courses, and then doubled, they are not as much as Chu Si and any ordinary classmate.

Chu Si couldn't remember the names and appearances of those ordinary classmates for a long time, but Sae Yang, who had the least communication and the worst relationship, became the person who left the deepest impression on him in those twelve years.

The relative ease of their relationship was after entering the training camp for half a year. Perhaps it was the sudden change of environment that made them mature a lot, and finally got out of the period when the anti-bones were the most serious, maybe it was something else...

If we had to find a turning point, it would be the first time two people went out of camp to serve as fire-fighting reinforcements for a screwed-up mission. Two people who had never been in the same group were forced together for the first time, and they cooperated very well. A tacit understanding, more tacit understanding than anyone else.

For the first time, Chu Si acted so worry-free—don’t worry about his teammates holding him back, because Sae Young is far stronger than any partner; and he doesn’t need to be tied down, because every action of Sae Young is extremely provocative, and Some things in Chu Si's bones are also just around the corner.

After a life and death mission, Chu Si felt very complicated.

He was always a little late in this regard, and when he reluctantly admitted that he didn't hate to be partnered with Sae Young, and even felt a little joy in the excitement, Sae Young and his way of speaking had changed into The feeling of oppression and intimacy were mixed together, and he couldn't even remember when the change started, because he was accustomed to it unknowingly.

The relatively relaxed relationship lasted for a while, but it always smelled of reluctance.

Nassing's mission was their second time partnering together. When Chu Si felt hopeless, Sae Young unexpectedly returned and carried him out of the cave on his back, and took him back safely with his own jump capsule. Training Camp.

Saw Young, technically speaking, saved his life...

When he was lying unconscious on Sae Yang's back, he actually resisted a little bit. That kind of resistance came from instinct, and it was a conditioned reflex that had been honed in his childhood. He struggled rationally for a while, but in the end his heart softened, just like the moment he was caught by Jiang Qi in the alley at the age of 8.

It was only when he was 8 years old that he could find the reason for the softening in his mind - the dependence in the bones of the young children had not subsided completely, or Jiang Qi's age happened to be in his father's generation, which made him have a little expectation for family affection.

This time he couldn't tell.

What's more unclear is that the subtle atmosphere of Sae Yang carrying him in the cave at that time did not dissipate quickly, but became stronger and stronger in the subsequent missions.

Some things ferment silently and surprisingly quickly.

So much so that in a mission two months later, when Sae Young pressed him against a tree trunk, the tip of his nose touched the tip of his nose, and his lips were only a few millimeters apart, he didn't actually want to punch him.

At that time, the firepower of the Baiyin Military Department was chasing behind them. The place where the probe bomb exploded was less than 100 meters away from them. The extremely corrosive and irritating liquid splashed, and the vegetation in the forest was mottled.

The pervading mist was unbearable, and the sky-high alarm sound mixed with various voices in the military communicator interlaced into a life-threatening background sound. This kind of life-and-death juncture was always when Sae Yang felt exciting, and once he felt Excited, it will always become particularly crazy, so crazy that the enemy is caught off guard and completely overwhelmed.

But Chu Si never thought that he would suddenly switch to a crazy method that time.

Originally, he just used the trunk to block the sprayed corrosive liquid, but Sae Yang suddenly lowered his head and leaned over.

His eyes were also half-squinted at that time, showing a mad and arrogant energy, so that people could not judge whether he was rushing in excitement or something else.

That was the moment when the two of them were closest, so close that their breaths were intertwined. But the difference of a few millimeters was not reduced to zero in the end, because the aircraft responsible for coordinating them was parachuted to them.

After that, there was a chaotic and frantic exchange of fire. The response team in the aircraft tried their best to leave, and at the same time greeted the eight generations of the enemy's ancestors at the same time. Sae Young didn't even have time to mention that moment in the woods.

Then, there was the more complicated internal strife in the White Eagle Army. There were disputes between the military research institute and the headquarters. The mess involved training camps, sanatoriums and even a wider range, and even the deceased people were unable to Escape from involvement, including Jiang Qi.

Chu Si's energy was divided into two parts.

When everything finally subsided, it was the end of the year, and the original delicate atmosphere had already been buried and smoothed out in all kinds of chaos, and there was no need to mention it again in the end.

When Chu Si and Sae Young met again, it was the day that Sae left the camp ahead of schedule for special reasons.

Until that day, they had known each other for 13 years. For most of the time, the dialogue between them was always full of provocation and ridicule. The rest was mixed with indescribable ambiguousness and banter. The botanical gardens are staggered, and it is most peaceful when saying "goodbye" a few steps away.

That was actually a rare time for Chu Si to relax, because at that time he found clues that might prove that Jiang Qi was not dead, and because he finally gave Sae Yang his defense, hostility, and a little bit of awkwardness. cleared.

Over the years, apart from Jiang Qi, who is a family member, this is the only person who has made him try to let go of his doubts and vigilance.

For Chu Si at that time, he could not give a clear definition of Sae Yang, because the only person who could refer to it was Jiang Qi, and Jiang Qi was a family member, but Sae Yang was not. The difference between the two was too great. .

They are not friends either. Friends don't fight like them for more than ten years, and they haven't even said their heartfelt words.

But no matter what, their relationship is going in the direction of tacit understanding and trust, and it is already very good.

This idea continued until the third year after Chu Si left the camp. Half a month before Jiang Ji's death that year, Chu Si received a mission that he had planned for a long time and wanted to participate in, involving the most mysterious research base of the White Eagle Military Academy. , located in the Cross Red Maple District, sandwiched between the military command base and the general government.

The most core and secret research of the military is all in the Hongfeng base, and Jiang Qi used to stay there for three months every year.

What kind of research he did in it and what kind of affairs were involved, even Chu Si had no idea.

But during several consecutive missions that year, Chu Si discovered that there was a research project in the Hongfeng Research Base, which was related to restarting the physiological lifespan of some researchers. There was actually Jiang Qi who was bombed to the bone. .

That list and that vague research project made Chu Si insist for years to finally find a place—Jiang Qi probably didn't die, or there was a way to come back to life.

As absurd as it sounds like a deceiving story, that's exactly what Chus has been waiting for for 18 years.

However, in the end, he watched helplessly as that hope collapsed along with the entire Red Maple base, and disappeared in an instant, leaving no scum.

The person who destroyed the entire Hongfeng base was Sae Yang who suddenly turned against the water.

For several years later, Chu Si's mission content was related to Sae Yang's pursuit. With the increasing data and records, he finally persuaded himself to realize one thing: Sae Yang has nothing to do with him. , who may be the most powerful teammate today, may turn against him tomorrow, he will not and cannot be affected and interfered by any other factors, dangerous, ego, and unfettered.

After going around for a long time, I finally found that the closest thing to reality was the original perception, which is really ironic.

The man who destroyed all his hopes had rescued him, the man he tried to trust was on the opposite side of him.

This kind of complex taste has been grinding Chu Si for many years, until Sae Yang finally entered the space prison, and then slowly faded, and after several years of supervision and supervision, it turned into the current lukewarmness Hot and unclear situation.

Chu Si stared at Sae's light-colored eyes that hadn't changed in decades, then swept aside Sae's hand that was hooking his chin, and said, "If you have a reason, just have a reason, feel free."

After he finished speaking, he turned his face back and called up the video recorded by Carlos Black.

The images are not complete, and the paragraphs are not coherent, but most of them can match the information heard before.

As Carlos said, the city of silver has already moved. The mecha army is heading for the α star area with a detector. The other planets are not idle. There are two planets that were once closely related to the Tianying γ star. It has already circled into the edge of the star area. I don't know if it is here to help or for other purposes.

However, where the fragments of the military headquarters and the general government are, and what is the current situation, it is still unknown. After all, Carlos Black has encountered fragments twice so far.

The last image was the one he recorded when the last fragment landed.

The camera lens is messy and unstable, making people feel dizzy, but I haven't seen anything.

Chu Si could still feel that the pressure on the back of the chair did not leave. Sae was still lying there, perhaps watching these images with him, or thinking about something else.

Just when Chu Si's attention was slightly distracted, the lens of the image suddenly flickered, and a very familiar building flashed by.

Chu Si was stunned for a moment, then immediately stepped back and paused at the scene where the building appeared.

That is…

Just as he zoomed in and zoomed in a little bit, Sae Yang from behind suddenly said, "I've been thinking about one thing for a long time."

Chu Si pointed, but didn't look back: "It's unimaginable that you would think about one thing for a long time." His eyes still fell on the image, and his tone sounded casual, as if he just replied in a busy interval. one sentence.

Sae Yang moved again, as if to support his head with his hands, he laughed, and a deep voice came down the back of the chair, "I'm surprised too."

It's strange that there is some self-deprecation in the smile.

Chu Si finally turned his head to look at him.

Sae squinted his eyes, the light in his eyes was hidden under the shadow of his eyelashes, and was cut into countless tiny spots of light: "I did something that I always wanted to do, and I have no regrets, no regrets, why? Still a little unhappy? I've been thinking about it for years."

Chu Si frowned and looked at him for a long time, "Do you want to understand?"

Sae said "um" and said in a low voice, "Because one person is unhappy."

He blinked, the light spots in his eyes shattered like the star map that was incorporated into the world, "It's not because of me that I'm unhappy, it's really... It's so strange, isn't it?"
