I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 194

After a rainy August, September has been the dry season in Aschet, the imperial capital.However, it seems that this year is a little different. There have been two consecutive rains in September, and today it is another pattering rain.

Lin Mo sat on the sofa by the floor-to-ceiling windows in the office, watching the rain falling outside the window.It was clearly noon, but it was as gloomy as dusk.He picked up the remote control placed on the coffee table in front of him, and opened the built-in window on the other side.Soon the moist air rushed in.It seems that this year's autumn has come very early, and there is also some cold autumn in the air.

Since Lin Jian stepped out of the cell after being summoned by the Prime Minister, the Marquis of Chatterley, the monitoring of her has been started. The report of where she has been during this time is clearly written on the coffee table.During this period of time, she went to Granshire's apartment once, Nolan Hospital once, and the logistics department once, and then she never stepped out of the Eighth Fleet station.

The biotechnology officer who accompanied the army to the Maple Galaxy this time was Granshire.

This surprised Lin Mo very much.

As Granshire's friend for more than ten years, Lin Mo knows him very well, not only in the character of the other party.Both of them have a considerable understanding of each other's family secrets.None of them are easy to make friends with, plus Edward, the three of them are used to sharing each other's problems.The relationship between Lin Mo and Granshire is even deeper. After all, Edward is not a very suitable person to talk to.

In fact, Lin Mo has not been able to see through Granshall until now.This person always gives people a gentle and harmless feeling on weekdays, and in fact he is most of the time.But a long time ago, he wasn't like that.He has the same aggressive and unruly Nolan blood as his dead brother. When he was studying in the military academy more than ten years ago, his personality was far stronger than it is now.

A smile comes from arrogance, and tolerance begins from a clean eye.

After leaving the military for many years, Granshire, as a high-end talent in the field of genetic biology in the empire, has always refused to be an official of the Ministry of Science and Technology, and has only stayed in a hospital of the Nolan family.This made his father, Earl Nolan, very dissatisfied, and even lost his temper.And this is also the most direct reason why Earl Nolan was completely disappointed in Granshire.As far as Lin Mo knows, after the establishment of the new empire, Dr. Dakolina, who was the Minister of Science and Technology, personally invited him to be the Deputy Minister of Science and Technology. It is obvious that after Dr. Dakolina quits, he will be the next Minister of Science and Technology. .But Granshire didn't give face to this mother's former friend, and still politely refused.

Lin Mo once asked Granshire about this matter, but the other party did not give a clear answer.In Lin Mo's view, since retiring from the military, Granshire seems to have started another life, which has become more and more incomprehensible.Both he and Edward believed that it was because of the genetic problem that had hit him too hard, but in fact, Granshire never really showed a very decadent attitude, and he never complained to the two of them even once.

This time, he is willing to take up the position of the Ministry of Science and Technology. Presumably, both Dr. Dakolina and the Prime Minister, the Marquess of Chatterley, are very happy.Granshire holds the most cutting-edge genetic technology in his hands, and he can definitely make a fortune with it. This has nothing to do with the country, and it is entirely the result of his own team's hard work over the years.But now, it must be taken out and shared with the empire.

And this price must be exchanged for a harvest, what is this harvest?

Lin Mo stood up from the sofa a little irritably, and strode towards the door of the office.His mood was very messy. During this period of time, all the things seemed to have accumulated together, which caught him off guard, and all kinds of complicated emotions were tangled together.He was faintly worried, worried that Granshire would also go on another terrible and unpredictable path because of Lin Jian.And thinking of Lin Jian, the sharp pain in his heart during this period seemed to invade his mind again, making him frown unconsciously.

"Your Excellency? Are you going out?" Fisher, who just brought in a document, looked at the marshal who had put on his coat in surprise, and raised the document in his hand in confusion: "There is a document that needs your signature."

"Wait for me to come back." Lin Mo didn't even look at the document, and strode towards the door.

"It's raining outside, do you need a flying car for you?"

"I drive myself."

Feeling puzzled, Fisher looked at the Marshal who had disappeared through the door and then looked at the document in his hand. He could only shrug his shoulders and carefully put the document on the Marshal's desk.The Marshal's temper has been very bad recently, and the entire Marshal's office is very cautious.

It only took three to ten minutes for Lin Mo to arrive at Earl Nolan's Mansion.

Before leaving, he sent a communication request to Granshire, but the other party turned off the communicator.And when he contacted the Nolan Hospital and the Ministry of Science and Technology, he learned that Granshire did not go to the hospital or the Ministry of Science and Technology today. He returned to the Earl of Nolan's Mansion today.

After he could see the Earl's Mansion, he stopped the car again.Looking at the closed carved iron gate of the Earl's Mansion, Lin Mo tried to stabilize himself.He lit a cigarette, and while stabilizing his mind, he thought about how to bring up the topic, or what position he stood in to talk to him now.

Very contradictory, he thought with some resentment, now it is impossible for him to talk to Granshire from the standpoint of elder brother Lin Jian, he even avoids this kind of thought, thinking that he is thinking of his friend, he does not want to see Seeing the actions of friends who have known each other for many years seem to be re-burning violently.

No matter how splendid the burning process is, the final result will only be reduced to ashes.

It may be a little exaggerated, and he himself doesn't know why he has such worries. At another time and in another form, if Granshire is willing to cheer up and no longer be in that casual attitude, he may be happy for his friend.However, at this moment, the hidden worry in his heart was like a thick fog, which could not be completely driven away.

A cigarette was slowly burned out, and the closed door was quietly opened in the dripping rain.

Lin Mo opened the car door to meet the tall figure who walked out of the door in the rain.

"Are you waiting for me?" Seeing Lin Mo walking towards him, Granshire was startled.Then, a familiar smile returned to his face.

In this dripping autumn rain, he was still only wearing a white shirt of plain taffeta, as if he came in a hurry, without an umbrella.The rain dripped down his blond hair and hit his shoulders, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all.

Indeed, a quiet change happened to Granshire. Lin Mo looked at him and noticed a document bag in his hand.

Seeming to have discovered the focus of Lin Mo's attention, Granshire looked down at the document bag in his hand, and took the initiative to explain the other party's confusion: "The earl's inheritance. But there is no emperor's seal yet."

He said it very casually, as if this title was something he could get at his fingertips.But Lin Mo knew that he must have paid the price for this.

"First enter the Ministry of Science and Technology, and then inherit the earl. Gran, what is the reason why you would rather pay a huge price to do this?"

"If you want to fulfill some promises, you must have some strength in this area. Although I am not that interested in these things, that little dislike is nothing." Er frankly but calmly replied.It's just that in this calm, Lin Mo seemed to see the Granshire who hid his pride behind his smile again.

And this knowledge makes Lin Mo a little at a loss. He is used to facing strong enemies and challenges.But when he faced the calm friend in front of him, he felt at a loss.

The only sound left in the world is the sound of rain hitting the branches.After a long silence, Lin Mo spoke again: "What if she wants to rebel against the empire one day?"

"I'll stay with her and help her as much as I can." Granshire's answer was still calm, as if what the other party mentioned was not a serious crime that harmed the family, but just an ordinary outing. "The strength of the Nolan family may not be comparable to that of the Lin family, but it should not be much worse than the share given to Lin Jian."

Granshire's words blocked Lin Mo again.

After another long silence, Lin Mo asked with difficulty: "Is it worth it?"

Hearing Lin Mo's question, Granshire laughed, and the gloomy sky seemed to be much brighter because of his smile, he smiled and shook his head, "I didn't expect you to ask such a question. But maybe it shouldn't be a surprise, I probably wouldn't have made that decision in the past. No, I should say that even in the early days of my change, I was still subject to certain things, which made me very painful The change this time is due to your behavior. No, no, I am not blaming you. I was too impulsive in the conversation with you that day. I want to apologize to you. When I saw her staring blankly When I was crying, I found that the entanglement I had was ridiculous. What is there to be entangled? I love her, so I want to protect her and do my best. Life can't be restarted, especially for people like me, Don’t hesitate, I don’t have time to waste, just do what you want, I think if this is the case, at least when I die, I won’t regret it.”

Just do what you want, and if you do, you won't regret it when you die.

When he said these words, he wore a flat but firm smile, and he was really happy for this decision.Abandoning those entanglements entangled in the body, a firm choice was made.

The rain was getting heavier, and Lin Mo still stood motionless. Granshire had been gone for a long time, but his words still seemed to linger in his ears.

It's an enviable thing to be able to follow your heart...
