Gerald didn't speak all the time, just stretched out his hands and hugged me with enough strength to make me feel the temperature of his body clearly.Although I don't know whether he fully understood what Hugh said just now, but as long as I can hear his snort around my ears, it is enough comfort for me.

After hugging for a few seconds, I let go of him.After all, this is the gate of the headquarters, and it is easier for us to stand here to hinder other people's actions, so after giving him a smile again, I pulled him back to the door and waited for Jiali Miweier to come out .

"...don't be sad." After standing silently for a few minutes, I heard Gerald comfort me.

I turned my head to look at him, still maintaining a gentle smile as usual, but for a while, I couldn't find any suitable words to explain everything to him, let alone excuse my depressed mood now—only at this moment At this moment, I really feel very relieved to have him by my side.

"It's the result that I've already guessed a long time ago. If I insist on saying that I'm in a bad mood now," I said softly to him, "Because I didn't have any feelings for my father from the beginning. The hope of conscience, so now I can’t talk about disappointment... It’s just the thought that so many people who lost their relatives, friends, and even their own lives were caused by my daily research at that time, regardless of the actual reason for doing this kind of thing. Whether it's me, I still feel guilty."

"...But even if you don't help him, someone else will help him, right?" Gerald looked at me, slightly confused, "Hugh said that many people are helping him."

I didn't want to hide the bitterness and regret in my smile, and I was even less willing to hide anything from Gerald, so I also said truthfully: "That's why I feel chilling."

"why?"

I patted his head and said: "Medical research institutes and the military are the two places that have paid the most to resist the HLM virus. Every researcher, doctor and soldier hopes that the HLM virus can disappear as soon as possible, and if even these There are people with bad intentions mixed in, so how can other kind people who really care about patients devote themselves to their careers? Feel carefully, as if everyone around you is not trustworthy."

Gerald nodded lightly, and couldn't help but retort after a while: "Garrie Miville and Niyo are trustworthy, and you can trust me too."

"So I am very lucky." I sighed, "Even though I have encountered too many accidents in the previous years, it is fortunate that you are by my side during this most critical period—Gerald, if You completely lost all memory of the past because of me, and wandered in the wasteland for so long, do you feel sad about it?"

"No." Gerald said firmly, "You didn't harm me, you saved me."

I chuckled softly, feeling my eye sockets a little sore for the first time in so many years.Although I know that sooner or later these things will be publicized, the hatred and grief will paralyze the nerves of survivors who have lost their loved ones, even if I didn't really participate in the creation of the HLM virus, I still need to do it for my father. things to take responsibility and pressure.People need a black hole to vent their emotions, and it will be particularly extreme during the period when they first know the truth-this is why I choose to stay away from Evelyn all the time, so as not to let these shocks that will come sooner or later affect them.

I used to think that I was calm enough to face everything with the most ordinary mentality, but after hearing Gerrard's words, I had the idea of ​​wanting to change everything.

"I will not let you be wronged even a little bit, and I will not wrong myself." Finally I said, pouring all my touch and determination into a seemingly peaceful tone, "Your previous life is enough Ups and downs, if you are still willing to live strong after knowing everything, then I am also fearless about the future."

Gerald listened to me quietly, without nodding his head, and did not answer anything out loud. He only showed me a rare smile, the curvature of which was the same as the one that often appeared on my face. .

After we waited at the gate for a while, Jiali Miweier walked out of the headquarters.His expression still looked a little gloomy, and he was silent for a while after walking in front of us, and then said: "I promised him that if we find Yufuno successfully in the end, we will give him a prisoner who can continue to live in prison." Chance."

"From my point of view, this decision is right." I nodded slightly to express my understanding of his decision, "Although his experiment can definitely be called torture for those infected victims, more infected people To avoid this kind of abuse, and to protect more residents in the city, we must find out where Uvno is."

Jiali Miweier looked at me for a while, sighed, and asked, "Are you really okay?"

"No problem." I smiled and told him, "I only have one relative, Ai Weilang."

"Let's not talk about this for now." Jiali Miweier temporarily gave up this topic, shook his head, and then said to me, "Hughes doesn't look like he is lying, although it is not sure what he said. The authenticity and how many facts he concealed from us, but at least we know a lot of things. But even if we know the information now, it is still far from enough. The people behind the government and the army who are helping Yufuno Who it is, and the specific purpose of that metal box, these are things we still don't know."

"Take your time, we have survived for so many years, do you still care about the waiting time?" I stood up straight, and patted the dust on Gerald's back, "You will go to the capital in two days It's also a good time to check the situation of Director Webster and the little boy caught last time. If there is any progress, please let me know first. I will stay in the base to study C-V27 and the extremely dangerous man. Infected people, so as not to make mistakes on Conordo's side."

"Alright." Jiali Miweier nodded and agreed, "I will have team members who specialize in this area and people from the Ordnance Research Institute to check and analyze the metal box, so as not to damage the metal box body as much as possible. Let's find out the reasons for the riots caused by those infected with the vicious virus. The words that Hughes confessed to us this time are very important, and I must go to see Ai Weilang in person and explain the situation to the senior government personnel."

"Be careful." I still told him the same as the previous few times, "The government still doesn't know if anyone has anything to do with these things, try not to let them know that Hugh has put everything together Told us. If possible, it's best to let Evelyn keep the interrogation in secret."

"I know, don't worry."

"Besides, if Niyo hasn't found any useful information from the Northern Research Institute, he can come back first." I said, "Hughes fell into our hands, now except for the provider of poisonous gas and corrosive liquid Besides, there shouldn’t be any important information left over from the Northern Research Institute. Let him come back just to be able to look at the metal box with other researchers. communication."

"Okay." Jiali Miweier agreed, "I will also pay attention to the situation of General Mecca, you and Conor should act quickly, and try to complete the research and observation of C-V27 before we come back. Don't let him find out."

"What I have been waiting for for the past few months is this blood sample of an infected person who is still in the transmission cycle. Now that I have got it, my research with Conordo will no longer be hindered , I will do my best." I nodded and said, "After being busy these days, it is much smoother than before, don't worry about our side, you can just concentrate on handling the affairs of the capital."

"I guess we won't be able to ask any more questions from Hughes. I'll ask Hughes to give me the address before taking him away. Then—" Carrie Miville paused and frowned before continuing: "Go on. Down the road, we may have direct access to the source of this virus disaster that has been going on for several years."

"Let's wait for Niyo to come back first." I finally said to him, "When you all return to the base smoothly, we will discuss what to do next."

Carrie Miville stayed at the headquarters, and he still needs to continue to confirm the itinerary for these two days with Howard, and sort out all the information of the infected person newly brought to the base, which will also make it easier for us to take blood samples next.Conordo should still be undergoing extensive disinfection in the isolation area and will not return to the medical department for the time being.

I raised my head and glanced at the slowly and continuously setting sun in the distance, then looked back at Gerrard still looking at me with a disturbed expression, and said with a smile: "I'm really fine, don't worry."

"I discovered," said Gerald, after meeting my eyes again, with a wink, "that you smile when you're unhappy."

I was stunned for a moment, and then I couldn't help laughing. After starting the car, I explained to him: "Sometimes I laugh not because of emotions, but just to express politeness and kindness. It's better than keeping a straight face every day." The face needs to be comfortable, right?"

"...Like Carrie Miville?"

I couldn't help laughing again, and nodded without hesitation, "Yes, guys like him are the most unlikable."

Gerald stared at me intently for a few seconds, then said, "But you seem to be smiling because you're having fun."

"This is up to you to understand and analyze slowly," I said to him gently, "guessing and understanding the emotions shown by others is something you have to learn to do—but for now, let's take you to It’s more practical to eat something to fill your stomach.”
