Terra's Magnetic Field

His smile is actually a mask to cover up his indifference. Most of the time he doesn't know how to face what is happening in front of him. If he keeps a blank expression and a serious face, he will appear too cold and no one will like such a person.
He is still lonely.
So Lei Ze smelled a hint of bitterness from his smile, her eyebrows trembled, and she seemed to understand something...
Razer understood that this young man, like Saria, lived in a different world from him. Although they were less than five steps apart and could grab each other with just a hand, their hearts were very far apart.
I'm afraid I will never be able to understand the other person at all in my life.
“………………”, Razer stopped asking.
The door of the ward was closed, and Knife left, going to a place she didn't know.
"What's going on with this feeling? It's so depressing..." Razer lowered his head, feeling lost alone in the ward.
It is unknown how long it will take for Franca in the other bed to wake up, and how long will she have to face loneliness before that?
have no idea………………
"I should have been more polite to him," Razer thought as he picked up the TV remote from the bedside table.
As soon as she turned on the TV, she saw the program broadcast by the local radio station in Rhode Island. As expected, it was another weird movie shot in 2009. Without thinking, Razer switched to other channels, but after switching to seven or eight channels in a row, there was nothing she wanted to watch.
There was no news about the matter of Exia, it seems that the matter has been suppressed by the management. After all, if the news of Sakota shooting Sarkaz in Rhodes Island spread, it would cause an explosion of public opinion.
(knife: Guess who usually handles these public opinions? Who cleans up the mess for Saria and Wanbao?)
"It seems that I can only pretend that nothing happened this time. I wonder if they can approve my application for reimbursement of medical expenses..." Razer didn't intend to think about those messy things anymore.
I'm afraid that soon we will see Angel walking around the streets of Rhode Island as if nothing happened. What can Razer say then?
Just like Knife said just now, people who are too serious will only live an extremely entangled life in this world.
Ten minutes later, in a ramen restaurant in the commercial district of Rhode Island, two young Lupo men and a little Sakota girl sat at the same table to eat noodles. This scene, which seemed extremely ordinary to ordinary people, could influence the situation of Terra. This table carried the two strongest people in Terra civilization so far.
The young man sitting alone at the table by the door was Knife who had left the ward. He joked:
"Don't you think we look like brothers now? You look like the older brother, and I look like the younger brother..."
Indeed, the two young men sitting opposite each other at the table were both Rupert, and they looked similar. They both had black hair and black eyes, and from a distance, there was basically no big difference between them. They were also like their own shadows, twin brothers...
(Twin Luper player xx)
The young man who was sitting next to the little girl replied to Knife:
"You're joking again. I'm in this state just to avoid attracting attention. After all, Lupo is one of the common species on this land. Aren't you in this state for the same reason?"
"Indeed," Knife took a big mouthful of noodles and swallowed it with the hot soup. Watching him eat noodles makes people very appetizing.
But in the eyes of another young man, Knife was just "performing", like a person without a sense of taste pretending that the food was delicious. This guy was just acting like a normal person as he thought.
"So what should I call you now? Wan Bai? Mario? Or that A Dao or Gui Shao? Oh, I heard from Wan that you are now called Wu Ming, so should I call you that?" Knife looked the young man in the eye, and the other party replied casually:
"It's up to you. I don't care much about names and titles. People around me seem to call me according to their impression of me. For example, Nian calls me Xiaobai, Wan calls me Xiaoer, and Skadi says I'm a hateful guy..."
The young man shook his head and said, "It's really too confusing. I don't understand it myself, so I just don't think about it. Anyway, I am now publicly using the identity of Guishao. I go to work at Penguin Logistics as usual every day, and patrol Rhodes Island under the guise of work to maintain the status quo."
"Then I'll tell you to return to your scabbard... Although your tone sounds like complaining, you're actually enjoying it, right?" Knife asked tentatively.
"Haha...are you enjoying it..." Gui Shao said in a bad mood.
He lowered his head and fiddled with the soup base a few times, picked up the remaining noodles onto the chopsticks, and slurped up the remaining soup in big gulps.
Knife had finished his noodles. He rested his hand on his chin and looked at the wolf and fallen angel in front of him. He asked Guishao:
"So you don't plan to confess to Lin and Saria? If they knew your current situation, they might feel much better and be more at ease."
"No, I won't interfere in their affairs anymore," Gui Shao rejected Knife's proposal, "I owe them too much as a teacher and a father... For them now, it might be better for me to stay away from them."
"They should have their own lives instead of living in my shadow all the time."
(Lin: I think it would be better for you to come back...)
"Wow! What a great father and master!" Knife chimed in. His tone sounded like he was reciting poetry, and Guishao could smell the sarcasm from it.
Gui Shao wanted to kill the opponent for a moment, but he held back. He has always been very patient.
Fran was exceptionally quiet this time, perhaps because he was listening carefully to their conversation.
Knife: "Gui Sheath, don't you think you have been too selfish all along?"
Guishao: "I am selfish?"
Knife: "Yes, you are selfish. But your selfishness is different from ordinary selfishness, and you and the people around you are not aware of it. People who follow morality and justice are actually very selfish, because they don't care about anything else except morality and conscience. They think that what they do is noble, that they are not selfish, and that their values and moral standards are universal and correct."
Knife: "As for the consequences of following those so-called morals and righteousness, they don't know at all
They only care about whether their conscience is clear. Do these people have a spirit of sacrifice? Yes, very much! They are able to sacrifice their precious lives for their own values and moral standards, but this cannot change their selfish nature. "
Gui Shao: "You mean that everything I have done so far is to satisfy my conscience? Is it self-satisfaction?"
Knife: "You can think of it that way. Don't you think you were selfish enough in what happened to Manju? In order to save countless strangers, you sacrificed your most precious daughter! The same thing happened to you with Lin and Saria. You always sacrifice people close to you for the so-called greater good. You pushed Lin into a dilemma, and failed to give Saria a complete and normal childhood..."
Knife: "Look at what Lin and Saria have become now. Do you dare to say that this is not your responsibility or your fault?"
"You should have realized that Saria is... So are you going to repeat the same mistake you made last time? If she loses control and becomes arrogant again, will you kill her again? Are you going to be that ruthless yet merciful savior again?"
“…………………………………………”, Gui Shao was speechless. He stood up, took out a few banknotes from his coat pocket and slapped them on the table, then pulled Fran away.
On this issue, he really couldn't refute Knife...
Avoidance is the best solution he can give at the moment.
The outcome of this dinner was quite unpleasant.
Shortly after returning to the scabbard, Knife took out his mobile phone and briefly browsed the unread messages.
He clicked on one of them, which was an application for medical expense reimbursement for Razer and Franka, and then clicked "Approve"
That’s all for today.
Postscript: Which kind of person would you prefer to have as your friend? A villain who does all kinds of evil but is good to his friends; or a great man with noble character who would sacrifice his acquaintances for the greater good?
Although Gui Shao is not as outrageous as the latter, he is indeed quite irresponsible towards his children and disciples.
Chapter 408: Visiting Sister Nian
"well…………"
After Guishao and Fran left, Knife sat alone in the ramen restaurant in a daze. According to today's schedule, he had to visit Nian next and talk to her about Wan's placement.
"I really don't want to go..." Knife moved to the seat where Guiqiao had sat before, from which he could directly see the street outside.
Watching people has always been his main way of relaxing, just like humans watching fish. He feels happy just by watching the noisy scene of people. He often stares at the people walking together and imagines what stories are happening to them.
Knife likes humans, just as humans like flowers, birds and fish.
Knife sat with his chin on one hand, watching the flow of people outside, and time passed by little by little. Because lunch time had passed, there were not many people in the ramen restaurant, and the waiter in the store just left him there in a daze.
"It's time to go..." Half an hour later, Knife stood up from his seat and strode out the door. His next destination was a dilapidated warehouse in the suburbs of Rhode Island, which was the filming location approved by Vante for the year.
With the help of Xi's power, Nian could build all kinds of strange scenery in the warehouse, and she could also create all kinds of costumes and props out of thin air. As for the actors, they were directly bionic people produced by Leishen Industry, and they could be made into whatever they wanted.
It can be said that Nian used Terra's first-line shooting resources to shoot her hard-to-describe things.
When knife went there this time, the warehouse was unusually quiet, which reminded him of the last time when explosives were flying around. He guessed that Nian might be taking a break recently, so the place was idle.
She lives in a small compartment on the second floor of the warehouse, which is also her studio. When she sleeps, she pulls out a folding bed from the corner.
In Knife's memory, Nian's life was always quite casual, she didn't pursue exquisite luxury like Wan. Her attitude towards life was a bit like some young people nowadays, so she could get along well with young people, which was difficult for Wan to do.
Speaking of Wan………………
Knife pushed open the big iron door of the studio, and what came into view was the messy scene inside. Various filming equipment and props were piled up randomly, the wires of various electronic devices were tangled together, and toilet paper, beer cans, cigarette butts and other household garbage were thrown everywhere.
There is even...
Used and unworn underwear, socks and other underwear are thrown on the ground or stuffed into shoes.
An indescribable mixture of sour, feminine, smoke, and vomit rushed into Knife's nasal cavity. His sense of smell had improved after he transformed into Rupert, and the strong smell made him frown unconsciously, making him feel a little disgusted.
His so-called sister "Nian" was lying naked on the folding bed. She had the habit of sleeping naked and did not cover herself with a quilt.
"Your place still looks like a doghouse as always," Knife walked over and said to Nian who was lying on the folding bed. He then used his toes to hook up the off-white coat thrown aside and covered Nian with it to hide his body.
"Um...ah?...Oh, it's you..." Nian narrowed her eyes a little, waved at the unexpected visitor in front of her, and said incoherently, "...Let me...let me sleep a little longer..."
As Nian spoke, saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth, and the sticky liquid slowly flowed over the uneven muscle lines on his neck.
Finally glued to the clavicle.
"You have always been like this, not acting like an adult at all," Knife took a half-empty bottle of mineral water from the table on his left, unscrewed the cap and poured the cold water on Nian's face.
"Let me save your face," Knife raised the corners of his mouth.
The cool touch made her body tremble with gratitude, and she screamed:
“Wow! Ah!!————————————”
The force of her standing up caused the folding bed to collapse, and her bare buttocks were pressed to the ground. The sound reminded Knife of the sound that the ramen chef made when he slapped the dough before pulling the noodles, which was also very loud.
"You fucking bastard!" Nian's first reaction after waking up was to curse, "Can't you be a little gentler to me? You treat Wan like this too?"
"I'm already very gentle," Knife walked to the window and pulled open the floor-length curtains. The bright sunlight instantly dispelled the darkness in the room, making the mess and dirt in the room more obvious. He opened the small window to let fresh air flow into the room.
"There's no need for me to wake her up. She's very self-disciplined."
Knife looked back at Nian standing opposite him. She had thrown her off-white coat aside and started to put on her usual bright red sports bra. Knife did not avoid looking at Nian the whole time. He just stared at her getting dressed. This level would not make them shy anymore, as they were already past that age.
Nian grabbed the panties on the ground and put them on her crotch. She couldn't tell which one was used and which one was clean. Anyway, they were all hers, so it didn't matter. At most she could buy a few new pairs when she went shopping.
After putting on her bra and panties, she walked to the water dispenser next to the iron door of the house, took a disposable paper cup from the bucket and poured water to drink. She must drink cold water after waking up, which can make her mouth fresh and make her more awake.
"Have you been staying up late again recently?" Knife asked Nian while leaning against the wall. He looked at the messy small objects piled on the table.
On her desk are miniature models of virtual characters, comics, novels and the like, which are essential for her to absorb inspiration. There are often leftover snack crumbs next to these small objects.
It's hard to imagine that Nian and Wan are twins. Apart from their faces, they have nothing in common. Their figures, personalities, and attitudes towards life are very different. They were originally the same physically, but their different experiences made them what they are now. It's really a trick of the world.
"Do you want to eat something? I have instant noodles and some snacks here..." Nian asked Knife while rummaging through the cabinet.
Knife shook his head, indicating that he would not eat such meaningless food.
"You're such a weirdo."
This is the second person to comment on Knife today. Nian continued:
"Not only do we not show our true appearance, but we also say such things... Since we can survive without eating, why should we care about nutrition? For strong men like us, eating is just for fun and to taste the flavor."
"Maybe," Knife did not refute what Nian said. He looked out the window. The sun moved a little lower to the west. It was probably around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Nian Xiaoguo cooked herself a bowl of spicy instant noodles. She also added a piece of king of kings, an egg and two pieces of green vegetables.
Knife couldn't help thinking when he saw Nian busy, if she used strength or power to do these things, it would be much easier. It seemed that she was also experiencing the life of ordinary people. Just like he chose to walk here before, it only took a moment to use strength, but they just wanted to go the long way and deliberately take some detours, because this way they felt more "alive".
I'm afraid the same goes for Xi and Ling.
"Nian, are you afraid of death?" Knife asked suddenly while Nian was eating noodles.
This abrupt question made Nian look up at him in confusion, and he uttered a rhythmic, "Huh??!"
"Why the hell are you asking this while I'm eating?" Nian was a little impatient. Among so many brothers and sisters, she only didn't know how to deal with this one. His way of thinking and the way he behaved were very different from hers.
She had never heard this person talk about her past or her opinions of other people. She wasn't very interested in the topics she talked about. They were not in the same circle at all, so she didn't know how to get closer to her.
"Do you want to talk to me about Wan?" Nian asked.
"You want to kick me out." the other person said.
Nian frowned after hearing this. "What are you talking about? When did I ever mean to drive you away? Why is everything you say so annoying? Don't you have any emotional intelligence?"
“You and Wan Zhen are quite similar. She isn’t very good at talking either… no wonder you two have such a good relationship…” Nian muttered, and lowered his head to eat a few more mouthfuls of noodles.
"Given Wan's current situation, who would be willing to help her unlock the Heavenly Lock? Those who have the ability to do so are either too lazy to do so or have been offended by her before. Those who are willing to help her don't have the ability to do so." Nian was furious when he mentioned his sister.
"What is your attitude?" Knife asked in a low voice, as if he was afraid of Nian.
"I don't want to care..." Nian put down the noodle pot, and his dull voice echoed in the small room, "It's not easy for me to take action in this situation. No matter what I do, I will offend people. And I'm not sure that I can definitely break the sky lock cast by Hati, so I won't be willing to join in this time..."
"Kal'tsit and the others are messing around in the square. If you want to join in the fun, go and have a look."
I said this in the hope that kn
ife (Fang) went over and kept an eye on Kal'tsit and the others. She still cared about her sister, and she felt more at ease having a reliable past.
Knife could naturally see the deep meaning behind Nian's words. He was a little jealous of Wan Younian for having a sister like her. Wan had too many things that he had always desired but could not get.
"Okay, I'll be there right away..." Knife didn't say anything more, as if if he spoke a few more words it would cause dissatisfaction among others. Maybe he should speak less in the future?
