God is Daozu

"Dad, what are you doing?"

He saw himself running downstairs, the walls of the stairwell were framed in cherry wood, and there were pictures of himself in them.

The man was sitting in the courtyard, his face blurred. He saw himself sitting in front of the man, and the man moved the paper a little towards him.

"Elliptic curve encryption, want to learn?"

The young Qiang Ju nodded with her chin propped, a woman's voice came from the flowers behind her

"You let him learn anything at any age."

The man crossed his hands and said in a gentle voice, "But the baby is very talented in mathematics."

The woman's voice complained, "But he sang a song in a mess of languages ​​yesterday! Is this the result of your raising the child?"

The man pinched Qiang Ju's face, "This shows that his memory is very good..."

Qiang Ju couldn't see the expressions of the men and women, but felt a terrible silence at this moment.

"dad?"

Xiao Qiangju put down her pen and grabbed the man's hand and pressed it against her face.

The man looked at Qiangju and was silent for a long time

"Be an ordinary person."

"It was reported today that three war-missing persons were found on the border of the Ishtar district..."

The faces of the three people in the picture have been processed, and the ages are displayed below, all of them are about 21 years old. Qiang Ju saw that their abdomens swelled slightly.

"They were treated as experimental subjects. I heard that the military had arrived at the border three days ago."

Qiang Ju was sitting in the library late at night and Liu Rong suddenly appeared and sat opposite him. Liu Rong glanced at the registration form in front of Qiang Ju's light screen, "Your current teaching plan progress is not enough to support you to pass the volunteer army review."

Qiang Ju closed the registration form interface, "Have you gone to register?"

Liu Rong didn't speak.

"That's what I tried."

"untested."

Liu Rong saw that Qiang Ju was sitting opposite her holding an electronic pen without opening any book, "Do you really want to go?"

Qiangju nodded.

"Do you think your parents were in there?"

"I don't think so."

Somehow, Qiang Ju had a feeling that his parents were not in that experimental base, and they didn't even appear on Ishtar's missing and dead list.

"Then don't think about it. It has nothing to do with you. Besides, the army is responsible for the task ahead. The volunteer army is only responsible for the transfer."

"Then why do you think about this matter, doesn't it have nothing to do with you?" Qiang Ju's voice was a little angry.

Liu Rong raised her eyes and looked at Qiangju, "You are still angry that I made Andrew the deputy conductor that day."

"What did he do so as not to make me angry," Qiang Ju looked at Liu Rong, "but why do you have to put up with something you hate?"

"What do I hate?"

"You hate Andrew, but you keep reaching out to him over and over again, you've shown yourself so well you don't need him at all, you don't realize when you're the first to step up and give assignments there's no objection Well, you didn't see the moment when Andrew stood up and you asked him to be the deputy conductor..." Qiang Ju was silent for a while, "You will be underestimated if you continue like this."

"I don't hate Andrew." Liu Rong said with a deadpan face.

"You lied, you hate the whole Upper District don't you?"

"You are emotionally unstable, talk to me when you are stable." Liu Rong turned the book back into a card and got up to leave.

"You are so dishonest."

Liu Rong didn't look back.

"You also want to join the volunteer army, don't you? You just signed up, don't you? You want to do something, right?"

"Why should I sign up? Why should I do something? Qiang Ju, do you think the volunteers are not in any danger in the rear? Why should I work my life for something that has nothing to do with me?"

"You admire ordinary soldiers who have been transformed into sentinels, and you want to be like that."

"You may have misunderstood me. I don't want to be a soldier."

Qiang Ju grabbed the paper notebook she usually exchanged with Liu Rong and threw it at Liu Rong, but Liu Rong caught it without saying a word.

"Talk to me after you learn to be frank."

"Qiang Ju," Liu Rong laughed, "What do you imagine me to be?"

Qiang Ju left from another direction, and Liu Rong only saw his back as he went away.

"Qiang orange?"

Li Simian looked down through the window of the library's conference room, and Qiang Ju was walking away with the materials in his arms.

"Why did he come back so late?"

Daniel flipped through the documents in front of him, "He may be reading news from Ishtar District."

"Does he want to sign up? But he is currently not eligible to sign up."

"Does he think that his parents might be in the experimental base?" Li Simian suddenly thought.

"Whether his parents are there or not, Qiangju will want to go." Daniel said.

Daniel got up and looked at the window, Qiangju was walking under the street lamp, the night wind outside the window brushed the leaves against the glass, Daniel put his hand on the glass, watching Qiangju go away alone.

"I want to buy him a scarf."

Li Simian laughed when he heard this, "Don't worry, the winter school uniform is very thick, he won't be cold."

Daniel looked down and saw that the road that Qiangju had walked was empty.

"I know he's not cold, but when I look at him, I always feel that he will be cold."

Daniel shook his head slightly at this wonderful thought.

When Daniel and Li Simian arrived on the first floor, the sound of identity verification in the library sounded, and Qiang Ju hurried upstairs.

"Qiang orange."

Daniel's voice sounded.

"Did you forget something?"

Qiang Ju shook his head at Daniel from a long distance, and then ran upstairs.

"You go back first." Daniel went upstairs after speaking to Li Simian.

When Qiang Ju returned to the area where she was just now with Liu Rong, Liu Rong had already disappeared.

Daniel's breath gradually approached, and Qiang Ju felt his cold fingers land on his head.

"Looking for someone?"

Qiangju nodded.

"Did you quarrel with Gao Lan?"

"It's not Gao Lan."

"Yin Deng?"

Qiang Ju was stunned for a moment, "It's not senior sister, it's Liu Rong."

Daniel had some impressions of Liu Rong, "He should go, tell him tomorrow if you have anything to say, and I'll take you back."

Qiang Ju walked beside Daniel, and every breath he breathed was the cold smell of the other person. He thought about the way he spoke to Liu Rong just now, thinking over and over again, thinking over every detail.

"You're sad." Daniel said suddenly.

"...He is a person with strong self-esteem." Qiang Ju was silent.

"I don't understand why people have to pretend to be different. I hope to be honest, but I can't ask others to be honest. I figured it out on the way back, so I came back again."

Daniel walked quietly beside Qiangju and listened to him talking intermittently.

"He is different from what others say. He is not trying to curry favor with the teacher, nor is he currying favor with Andrew. There is something very hard in his bones. I have no doubt that he is the person in my sequence who most wants to be a soldier. He and Andrew Many people are different, he is very hardworking, very good, he has a lot of his own opinions, he is definitely not a person who takes the military school as a pedal, he is working hard to become a good soldier."

"I hate people criticizing him, saying that he is as cunning and insidious as his white snake spirit body, and I hate him calmly admitting that he is what others say, but I did something wrong, and I can't ask anyone what to do, I didn't want to stab him, maybe I shouldn't have exposed him."

"You like him very much," Daniel said calmly, "so you expect him to live as he should."

"Not only that, but also my very childish selfishness. Gao Lan is my only brother, and I regard Liu Rong as my only friend. I hope that I am important to him. I know that there is no relationship between people. Totally honest, but at least he doesn't have to pretend to be someone else to me."

"You are important to him, if you are not important you will not see what others can't see."

Hearing this, Qiang Ju suddenly stopped and stood in front of the dormitory building, looking up at Daniel.

Daniel looked into Qiang Ju's eyes quietly, "You will see a difference, it must be through the acquiescence of that person."

"Are you talking about Liu Rong?"

Daniel didn't answer.

"Qiang Ju, I'm going to the border of Ishtar District."

"Are you applying for the Volunteer Army?"

"Ah."

Daniel's fingers couldn't help pinching the boy's earlobe, and the pair of rubies were still firmly attached to the earlobe.

"When I come back, I will bring you a present."
