infinite loop

Su Li held the prong tightly in her hand, and carelessly stirred the mashed potatoes in the bowl, her forehead was lowered, her hair hanging down, forming a shadow on her face, covering most of her expression, she didn't know what she was thinking.

Chuck across from her quickly cleared his plate of food, leaving only a round, overripe tomato lying on the edge of the plate.He picked up the tomato and quickly put it in her hand, and at the same time said a meaningful "return to you".

From the corner of his eye, he saw the bright red color of the fruits and vegetables, and Su Li's back trembled.

Alice was watching with interest while biting the pizza, and picked a piece of fried shrimp from the ingredients and fed it to Max who was curled up at his feet.

When passing by her, Chuck kept his eyes fixed, put his fingers on his lips and whistled loudly, and said simply, "Max, let's go."

It wasn't until the bulldog chewing on the fried shrimp jolted to keep up with his footsteps with four short legs, and disappeared at the restaurant door together with him, that Su Li put down the fork heavily as if relieved from a heavy burden, Worried, he reached for the tomato that Chuck had dropped and took a bite.

"I can't believe it..." She mumbled, paused for half a second to make a swallowing movement, and then articulated a lot, "He's only 16 years old—"

"I need to remind you, in fact, do you only have one?"

Alice replied casually, and coughed twice after getting raised eyebrows from the other party, and changed her voice, "What you should doubt is——is he really 16 years old?"

The eyebrows of the other party raised their eyebrows even higher—she waved her hand quickly, and finally corrected her attitude, "Okay, I'm sorry, I shouldn't be joking with you—but what happened to you this time?"

According to Alice's long-term observation, every time Catherine and the little ghost of Hansen's family were alone for a period of time, the atmosphere between the two would inexplicably start to become weird.

"Well... Generally speaking," Su Li replied with great difficulty, "When he was locked up in the confinement room, I gave him a tomato."

As she spoke, she looked at the tomato that had been bitten several times in her hand, and felt that her head was getting bigger.

After struggling a little in her heart, she finally shook her head vigorously and said softly to herself, "No, no, he's only 16 years old..."

"...can't 16 years old eat tomatoes?" Alice blinked in confusion and asked quite puzzled.

"...Of course you can understand that."

Su Li sighed briefly, put the half-eaten tomato aside, picked up the tray, and poured the leftovers into the trash can.

Of course Alice saw that she was avoiding or covering up something, and immediately picked up her dinner plate and followed her behind, "Don't be stupid, Catherine, it's useless even if you want to hide it—you forget about it later Is it a two-person simulator test?"

"..." Su Li walked forward quickly with his back to her, and fell into a weird silence.

"The results of this assessment will be included in the total graduation grade, I bet you will definitely participate." Alice grabbed a slight shake on her face, and added while the iron was hot.

"...I see." Su Li suddenly stopped and turned to face her, and at the same time raised her hands to signal that she was defeated, then scratched her face again, and said with a rare embarrassment, "You know, check gram……"

"It's interesting to you, I know." Alice took her hand and walked side by side with her, tilting her head to interrupt her words, "What else?"

"He wants to be with me..." Su Li opened her mouth, feeling that she couldn't describe it in words, so she took a deep breath and changed the subject, "I'm a little nervous, why is that?"

"One answer comes to mind, but it's obviously unlikely—you're not going to like him, are you?"

As soon as the words fell, Alice immediately squinted at her expression, and asked further, "What did you answer him?"

Su Li didn't notice the other party's secretly observing eyes, and replied helplessly:

"I told him 'eat your tomato'."

……

Clearly, she owed him an answer—or more than one.

In fact, it is undeniable that she also has feelings—at least it is not difficult to distinguish the strange emotions in her heart when facing him alone. Is the caring a matter of emotion, or is she always feeling sorry for him?

The last time she came to this world, she regarded herself as a stranger, and also regarded him as a stranger.She resisted all his kindness, denied her relationship with him, and subverted his perception of her... She treated Raleigh as a bosom friend and friend, but poured all the malice on Chuck, not even He could hear his last words.

Now, seeing him again, she can't help but want to treat him better, but she is also afraid that she will be powerless to prevent the ending of fate.

Half an hour later, the bell to inform the students to line up at the door of the simulator testing room rang throughout the building.After Su Li and Alice arrived together, they almost subconsciously searched for the tall and tall figure with their eyes, but in the end they found nothing.

"He was taken by Instructor Heck for a psychological evaluation." Seeing the unnatural look on her face, Alice nodded as a matter of course, and exchanged a self-evident look with her.

"……I do not know what you're talking about."

Su Li twitched her lips and moved her lips a little forward. Through the half-open door, she saw dozens of brand-new two-person simulators neatly and orderly displayed in the room.

She had been worried that this computer test would carry out a full range of synaesthesia, which would undoubtedly transfer the memories she had buried in her heart for many years to Alice's mind, but she searched a lot of information on the principle of the simulator test and put it down. Come to think of it—one of the most important reasons why the simulator test is different from the practice is that it does not really make the two drivers connect the neurons, but chooses a safer, lower-loaded two-way nerve center. The stimulation method achieves the purpose of simulating the synaesthesia link.

For the time being, she doesn't have to worry about being spied on by her sister - of course, it's only temporarily.

She knew that sooner or later she would be riding alongside Alice in New Zealand's "Monster Smasher", so she had to be fully prepared before then.

"Catherine Lopez, Alice Lopez, please go to machine three."

The instructor at the door shouted for them to come forward.Su Li felt Alice's cold fingers approaching, and gently grabbed her fingertips.

……

The fifteen-hour-long test ended quickly, and Alice was the first to roll off the rack, collapsing on the ground panting from exhaustion.Su Li's physical condition improved a little bit, and she kept wiping off the hot sweat from her face, thanking her intermittently and taking the evaluation sheet from the instructor in charge of the simulator project——

"Catherine Lopez & Alice Lopez, killed 8 enemies, good synaesthesia fusion, 96% synchronization rate, excellent evaluation results."

"Great, great..." Alice turned over and muttered out of breath, "Now... now after graduation... there will be a country willing to accept us... "

Infected by her uncontrollable excitement, Su Li nodded and smiled:

"Exactly. Let me see—we're graduating in a month."

……

At the same time, Chuck Hansen was sitting by the edge of a low bush in the small garden, pulling leaves one by one with his hands tirelessly.Behind him, Heck Hansen half leaned on the cold stone bench, put his fingers together to block the wind from the corner, and tried to light a cigarette between his fingers.

Neither of them wanted to speak.

The weird atmosphere lingered for a long time, the soot that Heck shook off had already piled up a hill at his feet, and the leaves that Chuck tore off almost buried himself.At this moment, Heck suddenly threw the cigarette butt on the ground, raised his toes and crushed it vigorously, then narrowed his eyes and looked at his son who didn't even look directly at him:

"You failed the simulator test."

Chuck just raised his eyebrows mockingly when he heard the words, as if saying "so what" to him.

Heck licked the corners of his mouth that was so dry that it was unbearable, cleared his throat, and raised his voice unconsciously: "Your psychological evaluation shows that compared with the standards of professional drivers, your psychological quality is far from the standard .You know what that means—"

As soon as it was mentioned that this endangered the career of the opponent's mecha pilot, Heck immediately saw the opponent's expression change slightly.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear any speech from the other party, whether it was an explanation or a rebuttal.So he felt a little annoyed, and suddenly stood up from the stone bench, "...Don't you have anything to say?!"

Hearing that there was no immediate response, Chuck sneered contemptuously, swept his father's face with mocking and sharp eyes, and parted his thin lips slightly:

"I have nothing to say."

He stood up neatly from a pile of fallen leaves, and when he turned around and started walking, he suddenly lowered his voice and called "Dad" sarcastically.

Knowing that his ideals in life might be affected by this, Chuck had mixed feelings in his heart, and couldn't restrain his irritability.

At this moment, the day's class has long since ended, and the students are talking and laughing happily, holding the materials and walking on the way to the dormitory—as if they are separated from him into two worlds.He sat behind a sculpture in the front hall, leaned his head back against the stone wall, and almost didn't want to move.

"Why are you here?" Su Li, who had just retrieved the materials left in the classroom and was about to leave, unexpectedly found him.

Unlike before, he only glanced at her and then looked away, expressing affirmatively that he didn't want to say anything more.

Su Li did not leave immediately.

She bent down and asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"..."

For a long time he did not speak.

Just when she thought he would not give any more answers, she suddenly heard a hoarse and slightly hissing voice, with a faint smile, said in a low voice, "...kiss me."

After Chuck finished speaking, he closed his eyes and said nothing.After a long time, he heard a rustling sound of fabric rubbing, and then felt a pair of soft arms clinging up from the front to the back of his neck, and the next second, a warm and gentle touch fell on his forehead.

"You should go and have a good rest."

He heard her say this in a tone of rare gentleness.
