Longmen Memoirs

Kelsey coughed twice.

"Theresia." She reminded in a low voice, but her eyes at Chen Mo became very unkind, as if it was Chen Mo's fault that Theresia showed up like this.

"Oh, I know, I know."

Theresia let go of her hand and straightened the hem of her skirt.

They didn’t say much to see each other off. Perhaps they even forgot to say goodbye to each other in the end. When Kelsey took the small refrigerated suitcase from her hand again, Ms. Kelsey’s expression did not soften at all. .

I didn't expect to hear a farewell from Kelsey, or maybe a few words of encouragement.

But I don’t feel much regret. Maybe I’m used to this kind of relationship. If Kelsey is really reluctant to say goodbye to her one day, on the contrary, she will feel that she has done something to annoy her.

After having this idea, even Chen Mo found it a little funny.

But in the end, when he turned around and walked away, he heard a word of "take care" coming from behind.

At that moment, something suddenly touched my heart.

He didn't dare to pause, so he waved his hands behind his back to show that he heard the farewell.

She was afraid that the way she stopped would appear in Ms. Kelsey's eyes. In fact, it was nothing, but in the end she still didn't dare to look back and just walked off Rhode Island.

Therefore, he didn't notice Theresa, who was standing on the outdoor deck of Rhodes Island, looking at his retreating back.

Probably because he was afraid that when he looked back and saw Kelsey's eyes, the little tenacity in his heart would suddenly collapse. Although it would not be to that extent, he would still inevitably become a little weak and emotional.

In fact, separation is the normal state for people like them who have been wandering for half their lives. In fact, in this land, people are separated most of the time, always gathering less and leaving more.

I thought I was used to this kind of scene, but in the end I realized that I was far less calm than I thought.

When I left Rhode Island, I saw Mud Rock standing on the wilderness again. She was no longer wearing that fancy uniform. She was dressed as usual as a Sakaz girl. Her long white hair followed the occasional breeze. And gently rise and fall.

I thought I should say a few words of farewell to her, but what I needed to say was already made clear when I left Kazdale. A few high-sounding words of encouragement still couldn't change the reality of separation.

So he took back his steps towards there.

He just looked at her from a distance and nodded slightly.

I remembered a lot, the war, Gray, the first time I saw this girl in military uniform. I also forgot a lot, the questions she had been nagging about, and how much she had spent in Kazdaele. Day and night, how many things did this girl handle for herself all night long?

Speaking of which, compared to her incompetent commander, she who is diligent, down-to-earth and eager to learn is the most suitable candidate to be the chief officer.

But in the chaotic Kazdaele at that time, there was no room for people like them to safely exert their strengths.

Everyone has his own ambitions, but Chen Mo is poor and has short ambitions.

No one is irreplaceable. The reason why people think that someone is irreplaceable is just because they are familiar with someone or something. And this familiarity will eventually be subtly replaced by new things as time goes by. replaced.

Time will heal all wounds, and time will also dilute the unspeakable secrets hidden in people's hearts.

Froststar let out a long sigh of relief.

The voice awakened Chen Mo from his chaotic thoughts.

He turned his head to look at Frost Star.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing." Shuangxing shook his head and said, "By the way, Her Highness Theresia, I felt a lot of pressure when I first learned about her identity. I didn't expect that she would be an easy person to get along with."

"Your Highness? She has always been like this."

"I don't think her personality is that of a Kazdaele monarch."

"Everyone who has been in contact with Theresia will have the same feeling as you." Chen Mo said: "Because most of the time she has been getting along with other people as a friend and an ordinary Sakaz. You have never seen her in other situations. Of course I have never seen her appearance, but I heard that in Sakaz stories, she always appears as a war hero."

"Your relationship with her seems very unusual?" Shuangxing asked suddenly.

"Because I used to be her guard."

"I haven't heard you mention it."

"It's not too late to mention it now." Chen Mo replied.

Shuangxing stared at Chen Mo's face seriously. After coming over for a few seconds, she asked, "How many things have you not mentioned yet?"

【/

He thought for a while and replied: "It depends on what you are asking?"

She fell silent, a little confused, but finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Forget it, I won't ask you. Anyway, the agreement between us and Kazdel has been signed. Tallulah and the infected people in the camp will probably feel a lot more at ease after knowing this result."

"That's right, but the first phase of assistance will have to wait until the team goes south." Chen Mo said: "It will take a lot of effort to bypass the border patrol line in Ursus, and it is impossible for Kazdel to risk transporting prohibited supplies into Ursus. It is within the territory of Sri Lanka, so it is ultimately up to us to pick it up at the agreed location."

"That's okay. It's better than the pitiful supplies collected from the battlefield when fighting against Ursus' army before. Many weapons in the camp have been worn out and can no longer be used. More people don't even have a decent weapon. There are no weapons.”

"You are optimistic."

"Because the situation is really much better than before. It seems that I suddenly feel a lot more relaxed. I never dared to think that someone would really come to help us infected people. In fact, before I came with you, I I don’t have much hope in this matter, and I’m also worried about how we will mention it to everyone when Kazdaele rejects us.”

"So are you at ease now?"

"Yes, I feel relieved thanks to you. Have you already confirmed that Kazdel is willing to help us?"

"Who knows, no one can be sure about something that cannot be explained."

Shuangxing looked at Chen Mo for a while, always feeling that he was talking nonsense again, but Shuangxing didn't care about it. She handed the agreement to Chen Mo. In the latter's doubtful eyes, she said, "I'll leave this to you for safekeeping." .”

"No……"

Chen Mo's words finally failed to come out in Shuangxing's unyielding gaze.

"Okay." He took the file.

Froststar retracted her hand.

"Should we go back now?" she asked.

"En." Chen Mo nodded.

"The spring of Ursus must have arrived." Froststar said, with a little longing in his eyes.

Chen Mo didn't answer.

Rhodes Island had long disappeared from the end of his field of vision. He looked up at the bright sky. The bright sunshine pierced the thin clouds in the morning and spilled from the sky to the earth, leaving behind patches of shadows of clouds.

They stood in this light.

"Let's go back."

Chen Mo took the document and looked back.

He turned around and headed back the way he came with Frost Star.

He remembered a certain promise he had made to the Sarkarz before, but today, he had not broken his promise after all, so after returning to this land and seeing Theresia again, he no longer had anything in Kazdaele. How much regret and nostalgia.

Most people and things become memories in the future.

Chapter 73 There are always a few fools

June 1093, 2, Crystalline Era

There is such a question that is often overlooked by people. Who is happier between the lover and the loved one? There are different answers.

Some people say that the lover should be happier because he has his own expectations in his heart. Others say that the loved one should be happier because the loved one is often the beneficiary.

But in my opinion, none of them are actually right.

Regardless of the former or the latter, they are actually unhappy, and the truly happy ones should belong to those who love others and are loved at the same time.

Whether it's wishful thinking or ignorant and slow acceptance of kindness, it's not normal.

Not everything can be realized as easily as people think. Just like the person you like has no reason to respond, because this is the normal development trajectory of things, and because not everything can be obtained if you pay for it. Rewards, giving and getting are not directly proportional. People should not feel upset and disappointed because if they don’t pay, they will never get anything in return. So even for the slightest possibility, they should not regret their efforts. .

If people are used to denying themselves, they will naturally get farther and farther away from their inner expectations, and they will naturally gradually move towards a path that will surprise and unfamiliar them when they look back, and become something they have never imagined.

Failure is not necessarily a prerequisite for success, but failure is always the best lesson to avoid repeating the same mistakes.

Chen took the dry-cleaned clothes from Xing Xiong.

"You were here last night?"

When walking down the stairs, Chen, who was following Xingxiong, spoke casually.

"Why do you ask this?"

"Why don't you take me away with you."

Chen rubbed her sore forehead. She wished that if Xing Xiong took her away last night, she wouldn't have to wake up and be lectured by the fox half-covered for a long time.

When Chen thought of this, his mood worsened a lot.

"You were very drunk at the time, and Sir Su was beside you."

"And you left me here?"

"I thought you guys knew each other." Xingxiong explained awkwardly: "After all, you seem to be very familiar. You were so unprepared that you stuck to Sir Su. I almost..."

"Stop, stop...that's enough." Chen interrupted.

Listening to Xing Xiong's words, she really didn't dare to imagine that scene.

Chen pursed his lips slightly.

At this point she was determined not to admit that she was on good terms with the treacherous Wolper.

"Did something happen?"

"It's nothing."

Chen shook his head and refused to mention it further.

Xingxiong's car was parked downstairs. After getting in, Chen asked again: "By the way, come here now. Is the inspection team's operation over?"

"I don't know more about the specific situation than you do, sir. I haven't received any relevant information from last night to today. With my current status, I can't participate in the inspection team's actions, but Jiu must know the progress. She is Commander, if you are really worried, you can give her a call."

Chen did have this idea, but she gave up the idea before it was actually implemented.

"Forget it. Based on what I know about her, she is determined not to be happy to receive my call now. You are right. We have no way to get involved in this matter."

Chen Qing frowned.

"Then where should we go now? Back to the Guards Bureau or..." Hing Xiong asked from the driver's seat as the car drove onto the road.

Chen Gang wanted to answer that she had indeed been absent from her post for too long. Even if she was the director of the branch, she had made a big mistake this time. Fortunately, no one would come to trouble her because of this.

For Chen, this is probably the only good news so far.

"Where is Cass now?"

"We are in the same hospital as Ah Fa. He was seriously injured. Although the Guards arrived in time and are now out of danger, it will be impossible for him to pick up weapons in the future. In a sense, it is a blessing in disguise. .”

"How many children?"

"Sent him to a nearby branch. The police officer on duty said they kept crying and wanted to see him." Xingxiong's voice was lowered, and she glanced sideways at Chen: "They don't know Cass's situation yet."

Chen hesitated.

"Then don't tell them just yet," she said to Star Bear.

"But what happens after that, sir?"

"after?"

Chen was stunned. She couldn't answer for a while. She knew what Xing Xiong was asking.

"Unless Cass is dead, they will know sooner or later. Now that Cass is not dead, how are we going to tell those children about this matter? Although this matter did not happen because of the two of us, it is now related to us. It’s involved.”

"The crimes committed by Cass can never be easily erased. No matter what the reason is, Longmen has no reason to turn a blind eye to violations of the law." Chen said decisively. She sighed softly and added: " Besides, I don’t have the final say on this matter now.”

"Yes, but what if you could decide?"

"Why do you ask."

Chen gave her a confused look.

"It's okay, just think of it as curiosity, curiosity." Xing Xiong replied casually, "Will you let him go?"

Chen thought for a while.

She shook her head.
