Chapter 012 The Disappearing Signal(1/3)
1
After Camilla fell asleep, Servais and Lin walked out of the nursing home together.
Time passed unexpectedly quickly, and it was afternoon in a blink of an eye, and the sunlight became slightly weaker.
"..."
Outside the door, there was Eleanor who had been waiting for a long time.
"Eleanor?...Are you here too?"
"...Lin and I came together."
…
He was sitting on the wooden tea seat next to the steps. The conspicuous white coat had gone somewhere and was not worn by him.
"Lin, are you crying?"
"..."
The redness in the eyes of the girl in front of him still hadn't faded away, and he noticed it immediately.
"only……"
"Onions are coming in."
"..."
“I didn’t expect there would be raw onion dishes here.”
"..."
…
…
"..."
"Eleanor, why don't you go in?"
In the silent atmosphere, Servais walked to the side, pulled up a chair and sat down.
"She can just go."
"But……"
…
…
…
"I blame myself a lot too."
Eleanor's expression darkened.
"..."
…
"I was the one who separated the two of them."
"She will hate me."
…
"So I can't go."
"She doesn't need to carry any more burdens."
…
"..."
Servais, who was silent, looked at Eleanor in the seat opposite. His expression was as calm as ever, but his true meaning did not need to be said.
"..."
…
"Sister Camilla can definitely understand you..."
It was Lin who spoke.
She had stopped sobbing.
"..."
"Maybe."
…
"Okay, your eyes will swell if you cry too much."
"Here, give it a good wipe."
"..."
Lin, who sat next to Eleanor, reached out and took the handkerchief he handed her, and gently wiped her face several times until the tears completely disappeared.
…
"...I really didn't expect to meet you here."
In order to moderate the heavy topic, Servais spoke first and asked the two people nearby.
"It's normal to have doubts."
"After all, no one would put anyone other than themselves first."
"..."
"If you can survive, it doesn't matter if you forget the people who died."
"..."
"That's what a lot of people think."
…
Have you forgotten...
…
Servais couldn't understand, he had never thought of such a thing.
…
"Lin was not very happy yesterday."
"She was originally looking forward to canceling all the places she planned to go, and there was no progress in her research. She was almost just in a daze in silence."
"..."
…
"If I don't bring her here, I'm worried that she will be depressed for a longer time."
"I don't want to make any excuses for this."
"The responsibility is mine."
"If I have time later, I will try my best to accompany her again."
…
"No."
"You have worked very hard. Without you, maybe we would all die..."
Seeing Servais's frown, Eleanor smiled and said nothing else.
…
"Say something else."
"..."
…
"There's one benefit to being a contrarian."
"That is, you can receive exclusive information from the commander."
"It may be mission intelligence or combat information."
…
"But Lin and I both have special identities."
"He is both a researcher and a contrarian."
"So, we all get that message."
