Synopsis: Endless Shuttle

"You only need to know my "abnormal" clone, it's not good to be too strict, but I really hope to become Kurisu's friend. "

"Hong, Hong Lisu!?"

"What's wrong?"

"...No, just be happy."

The girl did not expect that Ropey suddenly began to call her by her first name, and the gesture of lightly saying her name with that handsome face made her blushed.

A [-]-year-old girl is full of youthful aura, even if Makase Kurisu has a genius-like brain.

"Then I'll keep it short."

Rope took a deep breath and put on serious and serious eyes to stare at the assistant.

"I'm not calling Hong Lixi today for that dispensable research. Regarding the time machine, I need to tell you clearly that the time machine is not something in the imagination, it exists here, exists in this world!"

"……what?"

The turn of the topic made the girl stunned for a while, and then the instinct of the scientific researcher came into play, Makase Kurisu immediately retorted.

"However, just like when you were chatting with me at first, how can something that doesn't even hold up to an utopian argument can be created in reality..."

"Hong Lixi, can you explain what you saw yesterday with science?"

"..."

Rope's question confounded Makase Kurisu.

Calling storms, dancing thunder and rain like ribbons, no matter how you think about it, it has nothing to do with modern science, it is an abnormal ability that only exists in mythology.

——This is the SCP Foundation, the vanguard of the abnormal side of the world.

Makase Kurisu reminded himself again.

"Why do you keep holding on to the time machine?" the girl asked.

"Because I need it," Rope said. "I need a time machine, more than anyone, not because of regrets in the past. I need it to save the future."

His trial is to save the world to come.

But the enemy is in the past of 1913.

"...Sorry, I don't understand you."

Makase Kurisu covered her head, the huge amount of information finally overwhelmed the girl and made her give up thinking.

"Of course, I don't expect Hong Lixi, who has lived for sixteen years in normal time, to understand me instantly. We have a long time, so don't worry."

Rope stood up, walked to the girl, and looked down at the red-haired Makase Kurisu with his height advantage.

"Abandon the inherent concepts in your mind, give up the long materialistic education, even if everything is based on the most illusory fantasy. I only have one question, Hong Lixi, are you willing to create a time machine, willing... Come with me Do miracles?"

On the right track of the trial goal, Ropey confronted the mother of the time machine.

Chapter forty-ninth tells an ancient story

Generally, questions with ellipses are very deep, just like the phrase "Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to really... live?" brooding.

However, instead of thinking about the possibility of Rope's words, she was curious about when the topic started to stray?

- Let's start from the beginning.

The young man in front of him mentioned the time machine with great interest from the first meeting, and after that, he stayed with the time machine for three sentences, so that Makase Kurisu, who had planned to forget about this matter, reawakened the long-standing memory. —The unpleasant memory of breaking with her father.

Then again, they all say that it is based on fantasy, so I asked if I would like to make it... Makase Kurisu was in a dilemma, not knowing what to say.

The young girl's move was not in Rope's expectation, and he was not in a hurry, so he picked up the herbal tea and sipped it lightly.

Anyway, no matter what Makise Kurisu thinks, she has to do the time machine even if she doesn't do it. The black-haired youth is not allowed to run aground on important matters related to the success of the trial.

For a few minutes, it seemed that Makase Kurisu felt that it was not good to let her boss hang around like this, so she said carefully.

"You... Since you have the idea of ​​creating a time machine, why don't you use the predecessors of those researchers at the SCP Foundation?"

Makase Kurisu asked curiously.

"Mr. Rope, those doctors are more knowledgeable than me, a little researcher? Dr. Kevin has a high degree in various research fields..."

"Because only you can do this, only you, Hong Lixi!"

Rope interrupted the girl's words and said decisively.

Just kidding, it's not a waste of time to find some stinky fish and rotten shrimp instead of the person who clearly wrote the title of "Mother of Time Machine" in the original book?Could it be that his time can be wasted at will?

"Answer my question head-on, would you like to build a time machine with me."

"...I can't do it."

Makase Kurisu said sadly.

"Mr. Rope's request is too exaggerated. The direction of my study is "brain science", and I can only say a little about mechanics, let alone a time machine involving the quantum field. The breakthrough from 0 to 1 is not difficult, but impossible. "

A normal person's reaction, a normal person's reply.

Rope nodded.

"Don't be too eager to deny yourself, let me tell a story first - has Hong Lixi heard of the Cthulhu myth?"
