Terra's Magnetic Field
Page 103
After watching Ifrit go up to the second floor, Hemer went straight to the master bedroom. This huge place originally had two single beds, but now that one of them had been moved away, it seemed a lot quieter, and the bottles and jars that used to be on the dressing table were nowhere to be seen.
Many people outside think that Saria is tough and masculine, which is actually wrong. Saria is much more feminine than Hemer and dresses up more often.
After closing and locking the door, Hemer finally couldn't control her emotions anymore, she threw herself on the small bed and started crying. She grabbed the quilt on the bed with both hands as if to vent her anger, only in this way could she relieve her urge to tear someone apart.
She didn't understand why, after everything she had been through, she still hated that woman so intensely.
Maybe this is what emotion is, it can neither be suppressed nor sorted out.
Now Hemer couldn't control her emotions at all. The only thing she could do was to bury her face heavily in the quilt, letting the soft and heavy thing absorb her hot tears and dilute her cries...
Only now she didn't want anyone to disturb her, not even Ifrit, she was too insecure...
While Hemer was crying, Ifrit upstairs also felt something. Although she didn't know the reason, she could feel the pain in Hemer's heart at this moment, the feeling of the wound that had finally healed being torn open bit by bit and salt sprinkled on it. She covered her chest in pain and slammed her head on the desk, twitching.
"Nonsense... Why does my heart hurt so much?... Damn it..." Ifrit could not tell whether the pain came from the brain or the heart, or both. This is empathy.
“Stop… stop… stop!! Please… stop this thing!”
If Saria had taught her how to control her perception, perhaps this wouldn't have happened...
Besides Ifrit, there were others who sensed Hemer's pain, including Saria...
"This
Is it... Olivia... She is so miserable, does she hate me so much? "Sareya in the big fish's belly was indifferent to this. She knew very well that Hemer didn't need her now. The only thing she could do now was not to appear in front of Hemer...
After a brief thought, Saria lost consciousness again and lay in the sticky stomach meat, waiting to be digested by the disgusting gastric juice of the big fish along with other fish fragments nearby. Her outermost leather jacket had been corroded by the gastric juice of the big fish, just like her heart...
In addition to Ifrit, Saria and other people who are close to Hemer's family, there are still people in Rhodes Island who feel Hemer's pain.
That guy is now driving a mini electric van aimlessly on the streets of Rhode Island. If the pain that Saria can feel is used as a sample, the pain she feels at this moment is more than three times what Saria can feel!
Because she has a deeper [connection] with Hemer than Saria, and can even [telepathize] with Hemer.
After sensing Hemer's pain, the guy in the car turned the steering wheel and drove towards where Hemer was, a stream of light galloping in the night...
That’s all for today.
Volume 295: Chapter Chapter Lonely Death
"Bye bye~ See you tomorrow~" Angel crossed the street and waved at the van at the entrance of the apartment building. After a few seconds, she turned and went into the apartment. She hopped as she walked. She seemed to always have many things to be happy about. This kind of optimistic and energetic person is rare in today's world.
"Exiac always looks so happy," Gui Jiao thought thoughtfully as he sat in the passenger seat while driving. The scenery outside his right window kept changing.
"Yeah, she's been happier since you came here," Texas drove the van toward the center of the road and raised the rear window. Angel likes to open the windows to the maximum and stick her head out of the car no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, like a happy puppy, even though she is a Sakota.
"It's your illusion. I'm not that familiar with her. She's more likely to be happy because Mostima is coming back soon than because of me."
"Maybe."
Now Texas is driving the company car back to the Penguin Logistics branch in Rhode Island. She lives in the company, while Gui Shao rents a house near the company. After delivering the goods every day, Texas will send Angel to the door of the apartment.
"Is your name Guishao? I think it's a bit hard to pronounce," Texas asked calmly. She and Angelica are two extremes. Angelica is too enthusiastic while she is too cold. She often has a blank expression, which is said to be caused by her past work.
The tone in which she asked Gui Shao now was more like a superior asking a subordinate than a conversation between friends.
"Name without substance, substance without name. Your name is Texas? No way?" Gui Shao also had a blank expression on his face, and he always looked unhappy.

"……………………"
"……………………"
After Gui Shao said this, both parties fell silent. Without the Angel of Power to act as a moderator, it would have been easy for these two people's conversation to turn out like this.
"Come to think of it, are you planning to be a temporary employee forever? Your recent performance is good enough to make you a regular employee. The Emperor asked me to ask about your intentions," Texas talked about work again. When she was driving her van through the tunnel, she passed by a mini electric car. Guishao subconsciously glanced at the mini car and replied to Texas's suggestion:
"No need for that. I don't plan to make delivering packages my main job for now. I only come here to help during the peak hours every week, and I get paid daily and leave. But if you want me to live this kind of life every day... hehe..." Gui Shao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I really can't handle it."
"Okay, I respect your opinion," Texas' tone still lacked any emotion, "Young people nowadays really don't like to tie their lives to a certain job. They prefer to have free time rather than a stable working environment, right?"
"I don't know, I just don't plan to stay here for too long..."
"So where are you going after you leave Rhodes Island? Back to your hometown in Yan Country?"
"I will never go back there..." Gui Shao's face was gloomy. He turned his head to look out the window. Texas naturally noticed this strangeness, but did not ask Gui Shao why, because everyone has a past that they don't want to look back on.
"I don't know. Maybe I'll go to Columbia later, or maybe Shangshu or Longmen... I haven't decided yet. I want to work and save money while deciding."
"Well, that's fine. You're still young and don't need to decide on many things quickly."
"That sounds like you're really old."
“……………………”Texas was silent again, and Guishao realized that he had killed the conversation again.
They drove all the way to the company without saying anything else. The car stereo was still playing Amiya's mobilization speech. From what she said, she would take people to Ursus to retrieve that Blade Master Tower in the near future.
"We're here," Texas parked the car in the parking space next to the company's gate. There were a few small cars of different purposes next to it, and a charging station a little further away.
Nearly 80% of public vehicles in Rhode Island are now electric vehicles, most of which are produced by Thor Industries, and a few are campus vehicles eliminated by Rhine Life.
The operators were discussing privately whether this was some kind of cooperation plan between the top management of Rhodes Island and Thor. It was not clear, but since a certain day, all kinds of bad movies from the year have been played on the Rhodes Island TV station. The day Theresa announced her death, TV stations in other countries were reporting the bad news, but Rhodes Island was still playing those incomprehensible things, which sounded like black humor.
Texas took out his phone and swiped it a few times. "I'll transfer today's salary to you. Take it. A total of 432 Longmen coins." (Converted into Yan Country's central currency, it's about 150)
Longmen Coin is one of the most widely circulated currencies in Terra today, and it is circulated even in remote places like Rhodes Island. Although the official currency in Rhodes Island is Kai Coin, it is just a pile of waste paper outside of Rhodes Island, and no sane worker would want it.
"Okay, thank you," Gui Qiao clicked the payment button and heard the sound of coins colliding in his phone. The phone he is using now was bought with his part-time job one month after he left the ward. It is a very common brand and it's fine as long as it works.
"Aren't you going home yet?" Texas asked when she saw Gui Shao had no intention of getting out of the car. She would smoke a cigarette in the car before leaving after get off work every day because smoking was not allowed in the company.
"You don't have anything to do, I'll stay here for a while before leaving..." Gui Shao rubbed his temples. It was nine o'clock in the evening, and he had to get up at five o'clock tomorrow morning. Although he had enough sleep, he was getting more and more tired recently.
As soon as he returned to the apartment, Gui Qiao would start to have wild thoughts again, and then time would pass faster. He felt that if he stayed here, time would go even slower, it was all a psychological effect.
"Sure, as long as you don't mind me smoking here," Texas' tone also became lazy, and her mentality began to adjust from work to rest.

"I don't care," Gui Shao said, and Texas opened the windows on both sides completely. The cold night wind blew into the car, but it was nothing to the two Ruperts, as they were born cold-resistant.
Texas opened the glove box on the sheath side and pulled out a crumpled cigarette box. He then took out a thin cigarette from the box and put it in his mouth. He took out an old-fashioned copper metal lighter from his pocket and lit the cigarette.
After all the operations, she slowed down and leaned back on the seat, put her legs on the steering wheel, and exhaled smoke from her mouth. The smoke then flowed away from Guishao with the wind.
"What are you afraid of?" Texas asked, looking at the left rearview mirror, all kinds of cars passing by on the road behind her, some were so fast that they were hard to see clearly, and some were driving very slowly. Texas wanted to be a person who drove slowly, she thought that people who drove slowly must be very calm.

"...Tsk..." Gui Jiao smacked his lips. He looked towards the right rearview mirror. Cars of all colors were flowing across the road behind him. Some of them were going home, while others were just starting work. Gui Jiao wanted to be the one going home, but he had no home now.
"Maybe I'm just afraid that I will die alone one day... I'm afraid that time will take away everything from me..."
"Hmm?" Gui Shao's words made Texas a little confused. Was this what he was thinking about? How could a normal young man have such thoughts?
Ending song: "The Singer of the End"
Lyrics excerpt:
The cicada rain turns into light ink to paint the twilight, penetrating and outlining footprints and ruts, the laughter and floating water vapor are saturated, and the city is blurred through the window~
The crowds are still aimlessly dispersing towards their destinations, busy and doing nothing.
Waiting for someone to gently touch my heart, even if it's you, you only stay for a moment and then leave, thinking that maybe someone will meet me at the next intersection, even if it's just a miracle for a moment~
Confused and restrained like a fish in a city pond, choking or sobbing, all melted into the foam, dragging the exhausted body to the cold bottom of the pond~
Watching the colors fade away, I am still in this rainy, damp place where no one cares, singing songs with the sound of rain but no one listening. The crowds are still aimlessly dispersing towards their destinations, busy and doing nothing.
I pray that someone can gently touch my heart. Will you pay attention today and try to get closer? Because maybe the next intersection will still have the same ending. There is no instant miracle.
Please don't let me crawl alone in the heavy rain of the end of the world, singing the song of witnessing the end with the sound of rain. People finally stopped searching and stood there in a daze, crying and begging for a miracle~
That’s all for today.
Volume 296: Chapter Chapter [He]
"Don't you think this land is too harsh on the Savior?" Guishao, who was sitting next to Texas, said:
"When I was a kid, I read many story picture books based on saviors. Some of them saved people from natural disasters, some fought off demons on their own, and some took back the earth from the deep sea. When I read those picture books, I wondered what a savior should be like? Absolutely noble and selfless?"
"But... they are only human after all.
..." Guishao was melancholy, "Most of the people who saved this land would sacrifice their lives, even if they had strong power. Many times, all they did was to save this land from the worst state, so that the people on the land would not be extinct..."
"In fact, the so-called [Savior] can't even save himself..."
"They just follow the will of the earth and respond to people who call for help in despair. Sometimes the severity of the situation exceeds the maximum range of their own power, so they have to burn out their lives..."
"Perhaps they don't want to die either. They are not that noble and selfless, but they have no choice. If they don't do this, the earth will be destroyed and mankind will perish..."
"The so-called savior is nothing more than an ordinary person with nowhere else to go." Gui Shao said this and then fell silent.
"But you don't need to be the savior, right?" Texas said, "Ordinary people like us don't need to worry about the affairs of this land. You are too young, and you will understand it in the future. Ordinary people like us just need to survive well, and that's enough."
"Yeah, I just need to survive..." Guishao opened the car door, said goodbye to Texas, and walked towards his own place. He has now moved out of the shared house he rented at the beginning and rented a single apartment, which was provided by Rhodes Island for operators stationed on the island for a long time. The monthly rent plus water and electricity is more than 3,000. It is said that Exia and Mostima also live in such a place.
After walking for seven or eight minutes, he returned to his apartment and swiped the door with the ID card taped to his chest.
The door opened with a "ding" sound, and he walked in tiredly, changed into the slippers at the door, put the sneakers he wore during the day on the shoe cabinet, walked all the way to the balcony with the socks, threw them into the clothes basket next to the washing machine, and then turned on the water heater to prepare for a shower.
This apartment is a long strip with uniform decoration, more than 50 square meters. On the right side of the door is the bathroom and toilet, which are separated into dry and wet areas. There is even a bathtub in this narrow bathroom, and Guiqiao usually stands in the bathtub to take a shower.
On the left is the kitchen with a range hood, induction cooker, and sink. There is also a small square refrigerator on the storage cabinet, which is filled with drinks, fruits, and frozen dumplings and glutinous rice balls.
Further in is the standard living room, with the usual tables and chairs, sofa, foldable coffee table, air conditioner, wall-mounted bookshelf, and TV. Further in is a single bed, with a bedside table and table lamp in front of it.
The innermost balcony is separated from the interior by a frosted glass door, with floor-to-ceiling curtains, about four meters long and one and a half meters wide, with good lighting, and a drum washing machine. Now there are a few pieces of clothes hanging on the balcony that have not yet dried, including jeans, a black sports vest, a padded sweatshirt, socks, underwear and the like.
After the water heater was preheated, a "beep" sound was heard from the bathroom. Gui Shao walked in with clean clothes for change. It was a black vest and a pair of loose boxer shorts. He didn't like wearing clothes with patterns, simplicity was best.
He turned on the shower and the rush of warm water covered his entire body. Perhaps in order to charge more for water, the shower heads in Rhode Island apartments were all very large, and it was out of place to put them in a narrow bathroom.
The water flowing through Gui Jiao's body washed away the shampoo and shower gel on his body, and flowed down his thighs to the outlet of the bathtub. Gui Jiao felt calm in the noisy sound of running water. Only at this time could he stop thinking about anything and devote himself to what he was doing.
"Huh..." Ten minutes later Gui Shao walked out of the bathroom and stuffed the clothes he had changed today into the clothes basket on the balcony. In order to save water and electricity, he washed clothes once a week on average.
Gui Qiao sat on the sofa. The battery of the mobile phone on the coffee table had been charged from 7% to 21%. The cooled water dripped down his hair, which was the part that was not absorbed by the towel. He never used a hair dryer, which would dry his hair faster and make his face uncomfortable.
Gui Shao turned on the TV and saw a variety documentary shot this year. It was based on a documentary and the photographer interacted with the characters in the documentary. The content was about Wanbao and the koi in the artificial lake of Rhode Island. It was talking about how Wanbao bred the koi and how to select the best-looking ones from tens of thousands of seedlings to sell.
It is said that last year she sold a koi king worth hundreds of millions of dollars, which was bought by a wealthy Colombian.
What she does is actually more profitable than Kal'tsit messing around in the medical department all day. Rhodes Island can earn hundreds of millions every year from this. Kal'tsit's Originium disease specific drug project recently lost tens of millions.
Gui Shao was not interested in the content on TV, those things were too far away from him. People like Wan Bao could succeed no matter what they did. Even though she was a little down and out now, her connections, experience and the capital behind her were beyond the reach of people like him. Any of her interests were something that ordinary people could not afford to pursue in several lifetimes.
Gui Shao turned on the TV just to add some voices to this small apartment, so that the place would not be so deserted. Listening to the voices of Wan Henian bickering, Gui Shao felt inexplicably warm, as if he had often listened to them in the past, and…
Gui Shao listened to the voices on TV and flipped through the screen of his mobile phone. Every night when he had free time, he would go to Bluebird to check the latest messages from his friends. Crow recently worked in a restaurant and asked him if he wanted to join, saying that he could earn more than being a security guard, and that every day he would be serving dishes, washing dishes, mopping the floor, and wiping tables, and handsome guys were preferred.
Gui Shao said, "I'll go first.
Let’s take a look”, replied him.
When Crow went to Penguin Logistics to apply for a temporary job, he also went with him, but he was rejected in the first round. Texas felt that he was unreliable and talked too much nonsense. Degou (Texas) gave Guishao the feeling that she was the boss of the Penguin Logistics branch. The emperor basically did not show up. She was the boss of Rhodes Island, and Lapland was her lackey and licker.
Considering Degou's gangster background (everyone in Rhode Island knows about this), Guiqiao even suspected that she was smuggling some contraband under the guise of logistics. This was one of the reasons why he didn't plan to become a regular employee. He was afraid that on the first day of becoming a regular employee, Degou would ask Lagou to take him to familiarize himself with the "real business"...
There is still nothing on Saria's side. She doesn't play Blue Bird very often. The last time she posted anything on her account was several months ago. To celebrate Ifrit's birthday, she posted a short blessing and a photo of Ifrit blowing out candles.
Wouldn't it be impossible to collect any valuable information in this way?
Fortunately, Gui Shao followed Ifrit and Humer again to see what they posted. Ifrit and Humer both posted photos of their dinner party today, and they looked very happy. However, according to Gui Shao's speculation, they must have parted ways unhappily in the end.
Scrolling down, you will see information about Chen Huijie, who was parachuted into the Longmen Police Station last year. She has now become Chief Superintendent and one of the most powerful people in Longmen.
I
This made Gui Shao feel strange. He knew very well that Wei Yanwu's ability would not allow Chen Huijie to become so big all of a sudden. Could it be that there was another "big shot" behind Chen Huijie? But after looking through her past records, the oldest one only started from when she went to Victoria to study abroad. Before that, Gui Shao knew nothing about this person.
"Hmm..." Gui Shao pondered and temporarily wrote this down in the memo of his mobile phone. At present, he had deduced a lot of things based on what happened to these people every day.
After that, I flipped through a few more posts, and they were all meaningless stuff. Ever since Thor Industries acquired Bluebird, every few posts have been electric car advertisements. Recently, a well-known local actor from Yan Country had an accident while driving Thor's car, and this incident could not be found on Bluebird.
At present, there is speculation that Guishao has some connection with Thor Industries, because whenever she releases a new film, Bluebird will promote it crazily.
He opened the memo on his phone again and looked at the fragmentary messages and speculations. He always felt that there was some connection between these things, and many things were only a thin layer of paper away from the truth.
But now he could not speculate further and had to continue waiting.
Now that he was tired, he turned off the TV and lights and lay directly on the sofa with his eyes closed.
he has slept.
[He] woke up.
