For more than ten seconds or even dozens of seconds, Chu Si did not speak, and Sae did not speak again.
There has never been such a time between them facing each other without saying a word, so the silence seemed very long.
It must be false to say that there is no touch. For a moment, the past few decades have been churning in that second, like the ash suddenly raised when something fell on the dusty old ground.
It's really surprising that Sae Young will be influenced by others one day. In fact, the fact that "he would speak his mind" was surprising enough in itself.
But even so, this is still a typical "Sahel-style" expression—
I... I... I... I... , there are always so many "Is" in every sentence.
If he had heard this thirty years ago, and had been looked at by Sae Yang with such eyes, Chu Si might have followed the momentary touch and softened a bit.
But unfortunately, this was not thirty years ago.
The defensiveness that has been honed over and over for so many years will always be much harder than when I was a teenager.
Chu Si lowered his eyes, and when he looked up after a while, his eyes were calm: "So this is the reason why you stayed, because you are a little unhappy."
Sae Young said: "Because you are not happy."
Chu Si no longer tangled with him on this sentence, he paused for a while and said: "I've been unhappy for a long time, Sae Young, I've hardly been happy after the age of 14, those things you did are just Just put a fire on it..."
He wants to say that as long as the root causes of some things are not resolved, it is impossible to have too many changes, and it is not necessary to stay for this strong. But the words swirled around for several times, and for some reason, they never came out.
Maybe he felt that Sae Yang was a little unhappy today, but he might suddenly be happy tomorrow. Once he was happy, it would be a matter of time before he left, and there was no need for others to remind him.
Maybe it's not just because of this...
Sae Yang looked at Chu Si for a while, and then suddenly said, "When I said I had a reason to stay, you were happy."
Chu Si: "...Which eye did you see?"
Sae Young pointed to himself with two fingers, "I saw both."
"..." Chu Si looked at him blankly, and after saying "no", he simply turned around. He directly zoomed in on the video clip, and once again confirmed that the blurred building was indeed what he thought, then took out the communicator and connected to Tang's channel.
He seemed very busy, too busy to take care of others.
Tang's side was quickly connected, "Sir."
"Where are you now?" Chus asked.
"At the entrance of the East Tower, just after the exit was sealed, the gang of homeless people were taking turns greeting various relatives, and being verbally fucked. It's very miserable..." Tang complained in a dragged tone.
Chu Si: "It's hard work."
Tang: "As long as the body doesn't work hard, it doesn't matter."
Chus: "..."
"By the way, sir, you said before that it might be a big move." Tang asked curiously, "What big move?"
Chus said: "Oh, was about to say this. I saw it in the video record Carlos Black gave me-"
Halfway through his words, he felt that the hair on the back of his head had been swiped around his fingers twice, who else could be except Sae Yang lying on the back? !
Chu Si frowned and said, "Take your hand away."
Tang: "Ah??? What hand?"
Chu Si said, "I didn't tell you."
Tang: "Oh."
Sae Young added lazily at the back, "Sir, your tone of voice has become more lively, obviously you are a little happier."
Chus: "You shut up."
Tang: "???"
Chu Si was about to laugh angrily. He rubbed his brows and said to Tang Tang: "Forget it, you put Le Pen and the others together in the central fort. I'll connect to the collective channel and tell you later that there is no way to do it now. speak politely."
"No problem." Tang Xian answered the previous request, and then said blankly, "Why can't you speak properly?"
Because there is a spirit behind him who can't be free to get sick all the time.
Chu Si cut off the communication directly, turned to Sae Yang and said, "Go down, I'm going to close the hatch."
Sae Young propped his chin: "Close it, I can't."
Chus: "..."
He didn't bother to mess with this thing, he tapped the control button, and the hatch closed with a hum. He manipulated the aircraft to leave the ground again, turned a direction, and flew in the opposite direction of the central castle.
"Where are you flying sir?" Sae Young looked at the screen of his pilot.
"Your nest." Chu Si said firmly.
"Space Prison?" Sae Yang readily accepted the term "Old Nest", he nodded, and finally straightened up and moved the muscles of his neck.
He still walked quietly, but Chu Si could feel that he was walking towards the aircraft. The "Say Young's breath" that filled the cockpit finally gradually diminished.
Chu Si moved a bit and realized that he had been tensing his shoulders before.
He freed one hand and rubbed his shoulder bone, and then he recalled the frozen image. When his eyes fell on the blurred building, he was lost for a moment.
It used to be a place he was very familiar with, after all, he lived there from 8 to 14 years old... It was Jiang Qi's former apartment.
But how could it possibly appear in this video
That apartment obviously no longer exists. Not long after Chus entered the nursing home, the entire apartment building was included in the new urban planning list and was demolished. Chu Si later went to see the newly built buildings there, which were far from the original ones, and definitely not what they showed on the screen.
When Chu Si first saw the picture, he almost thought he had hallucinations, and after confirming it several times, the doubts deepened.
I don't know if it was his delusion, but he felt that things that were originally messy and seemingly irrelevant were being drawn together little by little. Although there was still no clear context, some things were being revealed little by little.
A strong intuition drove him to look at the shard, in the apartment that could not have appeared but did appear.
