Chapter 46: Flock of sparrows

Views:

"What kind of draft?" Sae Yang Ming glanced around the living room blatantly, "Do you mean the most original draft, or the electronic version or even the empathic version?"

If it is the first two, it is relatively easy to find, if it is the empathy version, it will be a little troublesome.

"I don't know." Chu Si replied.

Sae Young retracted his gaze and turned to look at him: "Dear, are you kidding me?"

Chu Si lowered his voice: "How many details do you expect a nine-year-old person to remember? Not to mention that the draft is related to military research, can you let me know?"

He only remembered that after the original research draft was lost, Jiang Qi first searched for a long time, and then checked the details of those days with him twice. It was carried out in secret, and the tracking process of that draft came to an abrupt end, at least that's what it said to the outside world.

"I only remember that the draft might be in some black file bag—" Chu Si was about to continue, when Jiang Qi had already come out of the bedroom, but his hand was empty and he didn't take anything.

With his elbows against the door, he laughed dryly at the two people on the sofa, and said, "Hey, my body is back, and my mind is probably still running around on the road without entering the door. I can't remember where the blanket was placed by me. "

Chu Si took it subconsciously and said, "Master bedroom."

In Chu Si's memory, Jiang Qi often had this situation.

He knows the order in which each document is placed, and can follow the timeline and logical line to remember where a certain research report he did a few years or even a dozen years ago was put aside, and sometimes even Can remember whether it was placed in the left hand or the right hand, and roughly where it was placed on the table.

But I am always at a loss as to which cabinet and which drawer to put the daily necessities at home. I often run out of front feet and start to search for the back feet. Every time like this, I have to jump out word by word, cold. He reminded him silently with a childish face.

Jiang Qi also formed a kind of conditioned reflex for this kind of reminder. Even if Chu Si, who was sitting in the living room at this time, was a complete stranger to him, he suddenly threw a sentence "master bedroom", and he raised his feet without saying a word. Just go to the other bedroom.

The remote control cabinet door made a slight sliding sound, and it didn't take long for Jiang Qi's voice to come over: "Not here either."

"Study." Chu Si jumped again.

Jiang Qi's figure came out of the master bedroom, and hurriedly walked towards the study with his slippers, until he passed the living room and was about to step into the study door, he was stunned for a moment as if he finally reacted, and turned to look at Chu Si.

When Chu Si received his questioning gaze, he froze abruptly. He smiled and said, "Sorry, it's always like this at home, I... I'll just say it."

Jiang Qi's eyes swept over Sae Yang, as if to ease the atmosphere, he joked: "It seems that you and I are half a catty." After that, he entered the study.

Chus: "?"

He was stunned for a moment and said, "Who is half a pound with him?"

Sae Young split his long legs, resting his elbows on his thighs, and nodded lazily with his thumb, "If he doesn't have a problem with squint, then he probably said it to me."

Chus: "..."

It's always like this at home...

It looks like you and I are half a catty...

Listening to the two sentences together, I feel a little bit wrong. Obviously, this misunderstanding is a bit big.

If someone else made such a joke, even if it was a misunderstanding, he wouldn't bother to explain too much. But the person in front of him is his adoptive father, although this is in the special case of overlapping time and space, Chu Si does not want Jiang Qi to have any unreal perception.

Sae Yang saw through his thoughts in a second, spread his hands and said, "Sir, don't forget what reason we entered the house for."

For what reason

We live upstairs and the fingerprint lock is out of order, can we borrow a place here for a while...

After thinking about it, Chu Si pinched his brows—

From the perspective of a third person, the state of "living together" always reminds people of two relationships, one is a partner and the other is a co-tenant. But Chu Si said "it's always like this at home" later, whether it's the word "home" or the meaning of that sentence, it will make people tend to have a more intimate relationship.

No wonder Jiang Qi would make such a joke.

This time, even if they have a mouth, they can't explain it. If they want to continue to stay here, they can't let Jiang Qi have any doubts. The more words, the more flaws, which is always true.

Chu Si's face suddenly became speechless.

"I found it, it's really in the cabinet here." Jiang Qi came out with a dark blue blanket and smiled at Chu Si.

He unfolded the blanket and wrapped the little Chus curled up on the double sofa into the blanket. I don't know if he was afraid that he would fall asleep and kicked it away. to the neck.

Xiao Chusi just raised his eyelids and glanced at him, his lips moved twice, and he seemed to be half-awake and muttered, then he continued to bury his face in the pillow, and An'an acted as a silkworm chrysalis.

Chief Chu, who was sitting on the side: "..."

Jiang Qi's personality is not so serious. He wrapped little Chu Si and stood up straight. He supported his waist with one hand and admired the good things he did. He couldn't help laughing.

Chu Si looked away with a miserable face, and saw that Sae Yang also smiled and looked over.

"… "

Time and space are fucking crisscrossing endlessly, and this day is still impossible.

It's okay for Jiang Qi to make fun of his son, but he is still in front of him, the adult version of the party.

Or it's just their father and son, but they were seen by Sae Yang...

At that moment, the thought of feeling embarrassed and thrown at home was all in Chief Chu's mind, and he didn't even realize that there was a different kind of intimacy in the atmosphere that belonged only to the family, and Sae Yang was an outsider here. Among them, there is not much inconsistency.

Jiang Qi also poured himself a glass of water and sat down on a single sofa. He took a sip of water and said to Chu Si and Sae Yang, "You live on the 63rd floor? I haven't seen you much before."

Over the years, Chu Si has practiced his ability to open his eyes and talk nonsense to the point of perfection, but Jiang Qi is sitting across from him, which is a bit different.

Apart from pretending to be sleepy when he had a headache, he never told Jiang Qi any nonsense.

Chu Si also picked up the water glass in front of him, but did not drink it, but held it in his hand and slowly turned around, "We are a bit busy with work and rarely come back at normal times."

Jiang Qi made an "oh", his eyes fell on Chu Si's water glass, and then he swiped his finger, saying: "But it's normal that I haven't seen it much, and I don't always go back and forth on time."

From these words alone, it was difficult to hear whether he believed Chu Si's reason, whether he had too much doubt about the appearance of the two of them.

In fact, if it were Chu Si himself, he would choose to open the door regardless of whether he was suspicious of the identity of the other party. After all, it was much better to observe the other party's actions clearly than to keep the other party in the dark all the time.

So he vaguely felt that Jiang Qi might have the same idea, first try the identities of the two of them, and if there is a problem, they will abolish it on the spot.

But thinking of this, he felt a little helpless to his adoptive father.

Chu Si himself chose to test this way because he has spent most of his life dealing with various dangers and has absolute confidence in his skills. The mere two people are really not worth worrying about.

But Jiang Qi is different. As far as Chu Si knows, he did stay in the mecha warhead when he was young, and he has also experienced wars and battles, so his combat ability should be good. But since he later transferred to the academy, he hasn't spent much time to maintain his physical fitness and skills, so a pair of two really doesn't necessarily have a good chance of winning.

How much self-confidence does it take to let two strangers in their prime come in...

Chu Si really couldn't figure it out.

"Work is always not on time, and meals are done outside? Eight out of ten of your age have stomach problems." Jiang Qi himself also behaved like a simple neighbor, chatting casually about strangers. The topics discussed will not cross the line, but you can learn some subtle information from it.

"Well, eat some casually around the workplace." Chu Si still picked the most decent answer without explaining too much.

When he and Jiang Qi lived together, the two were separated by generations, and the age difference was too great. He had never had such a conversation between the same generation, and he had never heard Jiang Qi chatting with people so half-baked. … novelty.

He didn't feel bored or bored even though it was all bullshit.

But after he finished answering, Jiang Qi said again jokingly: "Then you can't even meet a few times to eat?"

"We?" Chu Si was taken aback.

A second later, he realized that Jiang Qi was following some misunderstanding and said on a crooked road.

But his purpose was to let Jiang Qi minimize his doubts, not to discuss how to resolve the misunderstanding. So Chief Chu weighed the pros and cons a little, and quickly changed his expression and laughed and followed the voice: "It won't cause any problems if it is rare."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Sae Yang laugh beside him, followed by a deep answer: "Yeah." It was barely a cooperation.

"That's pretty good." Jiang Qi's eyes moved, then he lowered his eyes and took a sip of water, and said with a smile: "I can see that you have a good relationship."

Chus: "… … … … … … …"

If the other party wasn't Jiang Qi, he would probably be able to immediately take him by the neck and take him to the hospital to see an ophthalmologist.

And he believes that Sae Young's inner ridicule at this time will not be less than his -

What kind of eyes do you have to use to see the result of "good feelings"

Corns

If he continued to talk about this topic, he probably couldn't guarantee that his expression would remain natural.

Chu Si was thinking about how to test the draft when the communicator in his pocket suddenly vibrated. He took a look and saw that Tang sent a new message—

Sir, the group of "floaters" that were eyeing around the planetary fragments suddenly came out of their sleep state. I suspect that they will move. How are you and Mr. Yang investigating

In addition, after being greeted by the homeless for the second round of the eighteenth generation of my ancestors, I finally had a conversation with Carlos Black, and the progress was gratifying.

And, sir, is your holographic screen on? I synced the latest dynamic changes of the floating objects.

The moment he saw this message, Chu Si's heart tightened.

The matter of seeing Jiang Qi again just now grabbed most of his attention, so much so that he almost forgot that there was a circle of sparrows sitting around waiting for the mantis to catch the cicadas.

Now that the chaotic energy field has stabilized, the last barrier preventing them from entering the apartment area has disappeared, and they may go straight here at any time.

Originally, Chu Si saw the reappearance of this place, but subconsciously felt that the time had returned to the time before the apartment block was demolished. At that time, Jiang Qi was already dead, and he no longer lived here. This apartment is just a room on the military list. Empty house on.

Then he just needs to find the target, and then avoid those sparrows. As for whether the means are fierce or not, and whether the situation is dangerous, he doesn't care much.

But he didn't expect that the time here would go back directly to when he and Jiang Qi were both there, so his first consideration was not whether he could find the target smoothly, but not letting the people in the room be targeted by those sparrows.

He couldn't let those people of unknown origin bring trouble to Jiang Qi.

Although in his memory, apart from losing an important research draft, Jiang Qi did not encounter any other troubles. But since he and Sae Yang returned to this time and space by chance and participated in it, it is difficult to say whether everything will follow the original track, and how many deviations and changes will occur.

He didn't want to put his only family in such trouble.

"You seem to have just arrived home when we entered?" Chu Si quietly read all the messages and asked as if he was chatting while holding the communicator.

He had to find a way to get Jiang Qi out of here.

Jiang Qi was stunned for a moment, "Oh" and pinched his eyebrows: "I was going to go out for a meeting, but I found that I didn't bring a preliminary draft along the way, so I went back to get it temporarily."

Early draft

Chus captured this key word sensitively.

Human memory is always a little strange. Sometimes the details of some things have been overwhelmed by a long time, and even I don’t even remember whether I have forgotten it or not, but when I suddenly hear some key words or see a certain scene, those who are Submerged details are suddenly brought to the fore.

Chu Si finally remembered that Jiang Qi had turned back halfway to get the draft, but later it seemed that the draft had been dropped.

Chu Si didn't know the specific details of the theft. After all, Jiang Qi couldn't casually tell a nine-year-old child, even his own son, about the secrets of the military.

Chu Si found a breakthrough in his words, and immediately followed the words: "Then don't you have to go out to the meeting? Sorry, we delayed things."

hum - hum -

Two vibrating sounds of the communicator sounded one after another, Chu Si turned over the screen, glanced down, and saw that Tang sent another message—

sir! Those flotsam moved! The speed is not slow in closing towards your position! Have you finished investigating with Mr. Yang? Need support

Chu Si's face remained calm, but his fingers holding the communicator tightened.
