Synopsis: Endless Shuttle

"I'm really looking forward to it." Kevin sighed.

Since SCP-682 came, he, the research director, hasn't had a good night's sleep, which is completely different from Wingate Pisley who spends all day fishing and drinking coffee.

Being able to relax is a great comfort to this old man.

"Also, Kevin, please send someone to help me arrange a residence here." Rope said again. "I plan to stay here for the short term - until Wingate's new 'friends' land. "

"Your words will definitely make Wingate fly with joy."

"Aren't you happy?"

"I'm already flying."

As he said that, Kevin also made wings with his hands, which made Makise Kurisu couldn't help laughing next to him.

It's hard not to make people laugh at a serious old man with glasses doing such antics.

"It seems that our acquaintance is quite pleasant, Miss Makase."

Kevin smiled and pushed up his glasses like a kind old grandpa.

"In this hellish place, please do your best in the future."

"Yes! Dr. Kevin!"

Makase Kurisu straightened her expression.

With the sound of the door closing, Kevin's departure left Rope and Makase Kurisu in the large conference room.

The girl looked at the smiling black-haired youth, and suddenly didn't know how to speak.

Rope was the first to break the deadlock.

"I'm not the immediate boss of Miss Makase, we can get along a little easier."

"that……"

Makase Kurisu hesitated, wondering if she should ask this question.

In the end, it was the researcher's responsibility that made her speak.

"Dr. Kevin just said that you are my 'first research subject'...what's the matter?Mr. Rope Consultant. "

"Just call me Rope."

Rope leaned back and comfortably nestled into the soft backrest.

"Before answering this, I also have a question for Miss Makase, why don't you answer me first."

"Excuse me."

The brown-red-haired girl straightened her slender waist, thinking it was another test.

"What do you think of the time machine?"

The black-haired youth threw an unexpected question.

Chapter [-] "The Key to the Door" Yog Sotos, the girl who doesn't recognize the time machine

Makase Kurisu was stunned for a long time.

She thought it would be about the SCP Foundation, but Rope said the word "time machine" unexpectedly.

In terms of understanding of time machines among peers, no one can surpass Makase Kurisu.But again, when it comes to distaste for time machines, no one can match the teenage girl.

When she was a child, Kurisu Makase liked to listen to her father's narration of difficult physics. When she was in elementary school, she could understand the papers published by her father. Later, she could even discuss academically with her father, but it gradually evolved into a unilateral refutation of her father. His dissatisfaction, but the girl didn't know it at all.

Until her eleventh birthday, she denied all her father's theory about the time machine, which caused her father's rage and led to the breakdown of the father-daughter relationship.

Therefore, this term is the main culprit behind the deterioration of her relationship with her biological father, Makase Shoichi.

"Is Mr. Rope planning to have an academic discussion with me?"

Makase Kurisu frowned and asked.

Rope shook his hand in denial.

"I don't have the ability to have a scientific academic discussion with the talented women at Kondoria University. I just want to know your personal opinion on the time machine... just treat it as a chat between friends."

"Then with all due respect, time machines are pure pseudoscience!"

Makase Kurisu said unceremoniously, and Rope was a little surprised by the firmness of his posture.

It's hard to imagine that the girl in front of her who spurned the time machine academically is actually the mother of the time machine in a certain timeline of the original book... The future is really elusive.

"The reason?"

Rope was not in a hurry and continued to ask calmly.

When it comes to academic issues, Makase Kurisu seems to have changed as a person, and the shyness and uneasiness that she had just joined for the first time disappeared in an instant.

She explained carefully.

"So far, scientists in the world have put forward many theories about time travel. There are eleven theories that only calculate the main ones. Neutron star theory, black hole theory, light speed theory, tachyon theory, wormhole theory, strange matter theory, Cosmic string theory, quantum gravity theory, cesium atom laser theory, fundamental particle ring laser theory, Dirac antiparticle theory. But none of these theories are out of their hypothetical realm.”

Oops, why didn't I understand it at the beginning...

Ropey smiled.
