01625 Walking on the Abyss (1)(3/4)
"guest."
"guest?"
"Let's just think of them as a group of bystanders from the world... They are only responsible for observing and recording, and will never interfere in the disputes in the human world. Of course, there are some exceptions... but they all have no good ending," said Sinan.
It was the first time that Yue Dongsheng heard that the human world was being watched by a group of mysterious people, and he was extremely shocked.
He suddenly realized that these secrets might be simply kept and had no other purpose. But the question is...where did Doudou's grandfather get the chip? Does he know what he is holding?
What? What was his purpose in handing the chip to Yue Dongsheng?
"Stop thinking nonsense. Just go to him and ask him when you go out. Also, remember to buy a mobile network access node. That is my window to explore today after more than a hundred years." Simon said.
Yue Dongsheng directly rejected Si Nan's proposal: "Sorry, I can't do that."
Si Nan asked back: "Why?"
"Because I don't believe you." Yue Dongsheng said frankly: "If you are really 'Si Nan', as a consciousness active in the data world, I don't think you will have any good impressions of us humans."
Si Nan chuckled after hearing Yue Dongsheng's words: "You are so interesting."
Yue Dongsheng rolled his eyes, took a deep breath, and took back the chip that was thrown on the ground.
When Yue Dongsheng reconnected the brain neurons, he found that it was already empty. It seemed that this was a "key", a "Pandora customized" cheating key that opened the door to the abyss and gave the stupid boy to the devil.
"A very exquisite design." Simon said.
Yue Dongsheng removed the chip, took it in his hand, looked at it, and crushed it directly.
Si Nan couldn't help complaining: "Oh... Although this thing is empty, it is the crystallization of top craftsmanship among the first-generation products. If sold to a collector, it would be worth at least 10 million. You just crushed it.
?”
Yue Dongsheng didn't feel it was a pity. He rubbed his fingers, threw the fragments into the trash can and put his ID chipset back in.
Returning to the bed and sitting down, Yue Dongsheng felt like he couldn't laugh or cry.
He clenched his fist and said: "I heard someone say before... If you can, you must stay away from dirty or bloody things... because no matter how righteous your heart is or how determined your will is... as long as you have seen it,
Once you experience it, you will become dirty... In short..."
"Those who stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you... I understand what you mean." Si Nan comforted Yue Dongsheng.
Yue Dongsheng shook his head and said: "No, you don't understand... If these things hadn't happened, I would have taken Xinghan International's spaceship to Xinghan International's fifth space station on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and then transferred to the Crossover
It will take three months for the Type 7 spacecraft to fly to the Venus outpost... Then, I will undergo the one-year Deep Blue Transformation Plan, and officially participate in the implementation of the Kuafu 3 'Sun' exploration plan in 2173...
This is my original life trajectory... Even if my future is full of dangers and the survival rate of participating in the 'Kuafu 3' project will not exceed one in 100,000, I am ready to sacrifice... now...
Ha...I don't even know how I can persuade myself to forget all this and implement that bullshit plan called 'hope', which is actually a scam..."
Simon was silent.
Yue Dongsheng couldn't help but collapse emotionally now. His world view and values had collapsed.
Everything I once believed in has now become a joke.
What I originally insisted on is now a lie...
If this is mankind's self-salvation, then Yue Dongsheng would rather understand himself now, and perhaps it will be more enjoyable.
"What if things might not be as bad as you think? Are you willing to wait?" Simon asked suddenly.
Yue Dongsheng frowned: "What do you mean?"
"I have a bold guess." Si Nan paused for a moment before continuing: "Even though human beings are almost powerless to fight back in the face of the catastrophe of 'disappearance of the sun', there are still many people who are working hard.
You can probably see it from behind those truths... Although most of them seem very pale... But you have to understand that those are the past, have already happened, and can no longer be changed, and the future is what we need to face and look forward to.
’s... Maybe you think I’m giving you chicken soup, but... even I don’t think human civilization is hopeless. You have to think about why fate chose you, and what you can do
.”
"I?"
"Yes, aren't you curious, why you?" Si Nan said with a smile.
Yue Dongsheng calmed down.
Simon is right.
The past is the past and the future is the future.
Yue Dongsheng may be frightened by the past, but he cannot think that the future will be like this...
"You are right, the outcome will not be determined until the second before extinction." Yue Dongsheng said calmly.
Si Nan said "hmm" twice and then praised: "That's right...and you remind me of someone. You are really similar to her."
"who?"
"Yougege, have you heard of this name?"
Yue Dongsheng shook his head blankly, this was indeed his blind spot.
Si Nan recalled it and said with a smile: "Don't worry, maybe you will see her soon."
…
The facts are indeed as Simon said.
The day after staring into the abyss, Yue Dongsheng met the big leader.
Not only did he come to see Yue Dongsheng, he also prepared a new appointment order and identity for Yue Dongsheng.
"So... I can't go to Bohai Bay?" Yue Dongsheng still felt very uncomfortable... After looking at the new identity and transfer documents given to him by the organization, he felt very uneasy.
The officer sitting opposite Yue Dongsheng nodded and said: "The mission of Bohai Bay will be taken over by Chen Xiaoran. He is the brother of the upper bunk. I think he will use your will to do his best to complete the mission."
"Chen Xiaoran?!" Yue Dongsheng was shocked: "Isn't he injured and can no longer perform the mission?"
The officer smiled and said: "What this era lacks is not technology, but a sincere heart even in the quagmire. Chen Xiaoran sacrificed himself to save others, breaking a leg, missing an eye and half a lung."
, but his heart is still beating, and the organization will certainly not let him have to live with mechanical prostheses for the rest of his life."
Yue Dongsheng was shocked when he heard this. He looked at the senior colonel-level officer gratefully and said, "Thank you."
But the officer smiled and said: "It's me who should say thank you... So... are you willing to accept your new identity and mission?"
After Yue Dongsheng was silent for a few seconds, he stood up, stood at attention and saluted: "Promise to complete the mission!"
…
When I returned home again, it happened to be New Year's Eve this year.
Although Yue Dongsheng was injured and suffered due to some "misunderstandings", the two old people were happy when they learned that their precious grandson no longer had to go to Bohai Bay.
Of course, the happiest person must be Dou Dou.
The last thing she wanted was for Yue Dongsheng to leave the Dongsheng No. 1 Dome, but the little girl's thoughts were still hidden deeply and she could not express them so directly.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner was particularly lively at Yue Ronggang's house, because not only did he have his grandson back, but he also invited three members of Lu Shi'an's family who love to eat, as well as Dou Dou and Dou Dou's grandfather.
A table of people sat together, and on the table were the delicacies bought by Yue Ronggang after suffering a "heavy hemorrhage". Everyone's face was filled with smiles.
Yue Dongsheng also settled down and accepted the arrangements given to him by fate.
But no one knows what kind of secret he hides in his heart.
After enjoying the New Year's Eve dinner happily and drinking some wine, Yue Dongsheng, who had not recovered from his injury, went to bed early.
He didn't rush to find Dou Dou's grandfather to find out. He just felt that maybe he needed a process of acceptance... Maybe he would be more sober when he woke up.
…
That was a very unforgettable night.
Yue Dongsheng lay in bed unable to sleep.
Si Nan didn't speak either, but Yue Dongsheng could feel that she was also awake.
Various colors lit up from time to time in the wisp of "sky" outside the window, followed by loud explosions, which was the sound of the arrival of the New Year. Yue Dongsheng, who had never experienced the world under real sunshine, whispered to Simon: "I
I heard my grandpa say...the whole world was shining before the sun disappeared...especially when he first met my grandma, even if it was just a piece of green space, the grass blades were still shining...and as for me
, just listening stupidly...I can't imagine what kind of scene he described..."
After hearing this, Si Nan asked: "Want to take a look?"
"What?" Yue Dongsheng didn't understand.
Si Nan smiled and said: "Close your eyes and I will take you back to the world before the sun disappeared."
Yue Dongsheng was shocked, but soon realized what kind of existence Si Nan was? So he immediately closed his eyes.
…
After a while, Yue Dongsheng frowned and said, "Nothing?"
Si Nan smiled: "Fool, what can you see when you open your eyes?"
Yue Dongsheng was a little unhappy when he heard this, but he still opened his eyes as Si Nan said.
The moment Yue Dongsheng opened his eyes, the sun swooped down from the sky and fell on the leaves, splashing out many brilliant sparks, and then shattered to the ground, turning into blurry afterimages swaying in the wind.
