16 years

Liu Ruosong was very surprised when he received a call from Fu Yan.

Generally speaking, according to Fu Yan's habit, if they agree on something in advance, Fu Yan will mostly do it according to the plan, and rarely change it midway.This may have something to do with his years of military life, and it is also because of his natural personality.

So Fu Yan, who was supposed to be resting in the hotel, suddenly called and said that he would pick him up from get off work, Liu Ruosong was indeed a little strange.

Fortunately, his work was coming to an end, so Liu Ruosong stepped up his pace of work, finished the remaining interview questions, packed his things and waited for Fu Yan to come over.

It was the evening rush hour, and Fu Yan arrived 15 minutes later than the scheduled time. Most of the staff of the magazine finished their tasks and left first. Only a small number of support staff stayed in the shed to pack their things.

Liu Ruosongwo finished playing two 2048 mini-games in the rest area, when Fu Yan's message jumped out from the screen of the phone at just the right time - there were only two words "arrived" written on it.

Unless invited, Fu Yan would rarely take the initiative to set foot in Liu Ruosong's work field.Liu Ruosong has always felt that his personality is a bit old-fashioned and gentlemanly, although it is not bad, but sometimes he always seems a little puzzled.

Liu Ruosong replied with an emoticon of a running Tibetan antelope, then picked up his bag and ran downstairs. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he saw Fu Yanzheng standing in the lobby on the first floor waiting for him.

The interview site that the magazine Fang made an appointment with was in an office building, and there were people coming and going on the first floor, but Fu Yanchang stood tall and straight by the side of the main entrance, and Liu Ruosong still saw him at a glance.

He bent his eyes and waved at Fu Yan, Fu Yan nodded slightly at him, then stood patiently where he was, waiting for Liu Ruosong to come to him.

"Why do you suddenly think you're coming?" Liu Ruosong put the back of his hand on his forehead and said, "Fever gone?"

Fu Yan didn't reply for a while.

On the way to find Liu Ruosong, Fu Yan thought about many things.

Back to before the disaster - this idea sounds like a savior, but in fact, he can do too little.At least before the disaster actually happened, even if he had all the memories about the "future", he couldn't warn.Otherwise, he will either be locked up as a mental patient or dealt with as spreading rumors.

But even so, Fu Yan went through his memory from beginning to end. He thought about why he came back, and how he could change the future within his power, and even thought about "going back to the past". He is alone, or there are other "teammates" he doesn't know.

In just half an hour, Fu Yan thought about countless future developments and wondered where he should start to change the established future.But seeing Liu Ruosong now, his non-stop thoughts suddenly stopped for a short while, and only one thought popped up in his mind.

I haven't seen him for two years, Fu Yan thought.

After the apocalypse, he was recalled to the military region to perform missions, first to rescue, then to search for materials and effective materials to study the apocalypse virus, and spent most of his time leading the team running around.

Because of him, Liu Ruosong was able to do civilian logistics work at the base. Unfortunately, the number of times Fu Yan came back was very limited. I have met Liu Ruosong.

Now, the man in front of Fu Yan is still young and has not been destroyed by the end of the world. His tanned skin in Hoh Xil has recovered a little in the past few months, and he looks very healthy and energetic overall.

I don't know if he knew that he was dead in his previous life, Fu Yan thought.

This idea finally made Fu Yan fresh. After waking up, he felt pain for the first time. The sharp pain was fleeting, and it passed through his heart lightly, leaving a shadow of parting.

Fu Yan suddenly stepped forward and hugged Liu Ruosong.

Liu Ruosong was stunned for a moment, subconsciously hugged Fu Yan back, and patted him on the back.

"What's wrong?" Liu Ruosong asked.

Fu Yan didn't speak, he hugged Liu Ruosong restrainedly for a few seconds, then let go of Liu Ruosong, then looked down at him for a while, bowed his head and kissed his lips.

"It's nothing." Fu Yan said, "Suddenly realize that I miss you very much."

Liu Ruosong was taken aback by what he said.

He and Fu Yan grew up in the same compound. They have lived across from each other since they can remember, and they have known each other for more than 20 years. There is nothing wrong with saying a word.

The two of them grew up together until they established a romantic relationship in high school. Up to now, they have developed into "Old Man, Old Man".Fu Yan's style of acting is pragmatic and concise. He has a strong sense of responsibility, is extremely loyal in love, respects his partner and listens to his opinions. Generally speaking, he can't find any shortcomings, but there is one thing... Words never match.

In the years of long-distance love running, although Fu Yan has never been stingy about getting close and kissing, this is the first time Liu Ruosong has kissed him in public without asking.

Before his face became hot, Liu Ruosong was instinctively worried about his abnormality.

"What's the matter, what happened?" Liu Ruosong said worriedly, "At home?"

"What...no." Fu Yan quickly realized what was happening, and touched Liu Ruosong's face.

"It's just that I suddenly felt a little emotional." Fu Yan lowered his eyes slightly, and said with his head half sideways: "If you really sacrificed your life for the country, you will not be seen in the future."

Liu Ruosong's expression changed, and he subconsciously clenched the hand that was holding him, and lightly reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense."

His reaction was too sensitive, Fu Yan raised his eyes and glanced at him, only to realize belatedly that at this point in time, he had indeed just narrowly escaped from a plane crash, saying this could easily remind Liu Ruosong. Good thing.

"I'm just joking." Fu Yan had no expression on his face, but gently squeezed Liu Ruosong's hand as a comfort.He is not very good at comforting, so he can only silently take his backpack and carry it on his body, and take his hand and walk out.

It was not until he sat in the car that Liu Ruosong sighed lightly, and stroked the scar on the back of Fu Yan's right hand.

"I know your character, so I never wanted you to be transferred to logistics." Liu Ruosong said, "But anyway, be careful, huh?"

He opened his mouth to give the steps, and Fu Yan only glanced at Liu Ruosong's face, and hummed, which was regarded as his agreement.

Before Liu Ruosong could speak, Fu Yanxian changed the subject lamely: "Tell me, what will happen if the world suddenly ends?"

Liu Ruosong gave him a strange look.

"What?" Liu Ruosong said jokingly, "Is the hotel's default movie list the end of the world movie?"

Otherwise, he really couldn't imagine how Fu Yan would suddenly ask such a sentence.After all, based on his reading and movie-watching preferences, he is really far away from this kind of fantasy movie.

He didn't come back like himself, Fu Yan thought.

If Liu Ruosong came back from the future like himself, he should be able to understand this kind of instructions.

Fu Yan didn't know whether he was lucky or disappointed. He hoped that Liu Ruosong would not have those horrible memories, but at the same time he was disappointed that he had lost his ally.

If there is another person like him in this world, Fu Yan actually hopes that this person is Liu Ruosong.

But it doesn't matter if it doesn't, Fu Yan is almost sure that his "restart" is meaningful to the world. Since he doesn't intend to shirk this responsibility, whether he has allies or not doesn't affect him. s future.

"That's right." Fu Yan made a rare joke and said, "The doomsday zombie movie, I was sound asleep when I was woken up."

Liu Ruosong also forgot whether he remembered to turn off the TV when he went out, so he never suspected it, just smiled and leaned over to kiss him, and said: "Okay, blame me, I will remember to check the power next time."

Fu Yan turned his head and forced a smile at Liu Ruosong.

From waking up to the present, he has always accepted the matter of rebirth very highly. He instinctively regards this matter as "something that has already happened and cannot be changed", which is naturally included in his own cognition, and has never happened. How tangled.

But just now, he suddenly felt a certain sense of separation from Liu Ruosong.

This sense of separation has nothing to do with Liu Ruosong, it comes from himself alone - there is a gap of three years between him and this time, there is a memory in his mind that can affect the world, but he can't tell anyone.

Liu Ruosong didn't know anything about the turbulent waves in his heart. He habitually put the destination of dinner on Fu Yan's mobile phone to set up the navigation, then put it on the back of the chair, and began to read the unanswered work messages in the mobile phone.

He looks up news very quickly. After so many years of outdoor photography, Liu Ruosong's information processing efficiency is obviously much better than that of ordinary people. Reply to all messages as quickly as possible.

Liu Ruosong glanced over all the news at a glance, and when he saw the second page, he couldn't help but gasped.

Fu Yan was paying attention to his situation, so he asked one more question: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Liu Ruosong said, "It's an old biologist who wants to cooperate with me. He seems to be studying something in moss recently, and he's going to collect data in the wild. I don't know where he heard about my resume. , asked me to go with the team to help with photography.”

"Biologist?" Fu Yan couldn't remember such a thing in his previous life, so he asked, "Who is it?"

"Shao Xuefan." Liu Ruosong said, "But it's not important. I won't take on a new job until you return to the team. It's rare to take a vacation. I have to accompany you."

Fu Yan understood, and thought that this happened in his previous life, but because he didn't come to pick up Liu Ruosong, Liu Ruosong refused the other party's invitation on the way, so he didn't tell him when he went back.

But the name Shao Xuefan was faintly familiar to Fu Yan, he slightly frowned, thinking about where he had heard of him.

But in his previous life, Fu Yan had taken over too many tasks related to finding scientists, medical scientists, and residual medical materials and equipment. After racking his brains for a long time, he suddenly remembered this person.

In the early days of the last days in his previous life, he had heard of Shao Xuefan's name. At that time, the military region wanted to go to his area to pick him up to a safe area and conduct virus research together.It's a pity that when the rescue team arrived at Shao Xuefan's home, he had already died in the virus outbreak, and his body had rotted into a puddle of mud.

Because this task was not carried out by Fu Yan's team, he was not deeply impressed.

Thinking of this, Fu Yan suddenly froze.

At this moment, he suddenly realized something—maybe this was the meaning of his return.

Change what has already happened, and then try to find a new way out from those that are too late.

"Don't rush to refuse." Fu Yan said: "The opportunity is rare, go and have a look - I will go with you."
