16 years

At [-]:[-] in the middle of the night, the moonlight was hidden behind thick dark clouds, the sky was full of stars, and the night wind rolled over the Honglan River, making a long whimper, which sounded quite ominous.

"Check the watch." Fu Yan said.

Liu Ruosong followed and lowered his head to look at the mechanical watch on his wrist. The minute hand had just passed the seventeenth mark, and the second hand had turned a full circle, shifting downward with the minute hand.

Unlike when they set off from Yancheng, Fu Yan did not mobilize before the battle was imminent.Whether it was encouragement or request, he didn't say anything this time.

What he had to say had already been said in the afternoon's preparatory stage-there was a fierce battle ahead, and what was going on on the other side of the bridge, none of them knew, and Joe Eden might have prepared traps and traps , just waiting for them to drill in.

There are many crises on the bridge across the Honglan River, which may make them return without success, or make them come and go.There is no need for Fu Yan to elaborate on these "possibles", everyone is well aware of this.

The enemy is sitting on the sidelines, occupying natural dangers and favorable terrain, and can easily stop them.Maybe they can't even touch the enemy's research institute this time, and they will die on the way without knowing why.

But Fu Yan had no other choice.

The Honglan River is turbulent, and it is difficult for ordinary boats to cross the river. If you rush into the water, you may be swept into the river by the firepower of the defense line on the other side before reaching the other side.

They are very close to the other side, but they only have this thorny road in front of them.

Before deciding on the final action plan, Fu Yan actually had a little disagreement with Liu Ruosong.

This operation was regarded as a "high-risk operation" in the eyes of Colonel Fu. He didn't want to take Liu Ruosong to the other side, but wanted to leave him to Feng Lei and the others for protection and to support them in the logistics.

But Liu Ruosong disagreed.

"I know, we have agreed before that the strategic arrangement is up to you, and I won't make any trouble." This is the first time Liu Ruosong has disagreed with Fu Yan's arrangement: "But this time I can't promise you."

"The opposite side is beyond the national border, and anything can happen there." Fu Yan's attitude was gentle, but not to be questioned: "Wakasong, I can't take you to risk."

Liu Ruosong lowered his eyes quietly and was silent for a while.

It was normal for the two of them to have this disagreement, everyone in the action team could have guessed it, even Shao Qiu, who was wandering in the sky along the way, regained his reason for a while, and tacitly left space for the two of them.

It was evening at that time, and the setting sun gradually sank from a bright color to a warm orange, covering the sky and covering the thick clouds, reflecting half of the sky in fiery red.

Liu Ruosong looked at the surging river not far away, and he sighed after a long time.

"Can you guarantee that you will come back safely?" Liu Ruosong said, "If you promise, I will not follow you."

Fu Yan was stopped by his question, he opened his mouth in vain, but didn't say anything.

He never gave Liu Ruosong a bad check, and he was not sure about this matter, so he couldn't say this reassuring word.

Liu Ruosong obviously knew him well enough, he knew that even if it was for comfort or a trade-off, Fu Yan would not say this promise against his conscience.

"I can't guarantee." Half a minute later, Fu Yan really said: "I'm not sure what's on the other side of the bridge. You also know that this matter is too big and too urgent. We don't have time to worry about safety rules."

In this world, you can't have both fish and bear's paw, Liu Ruosong knew in his heart that their action was enough, but it was still not enough.If you want to catch up with Joe Eden's speed, you will have to sacrifice safety.

This is a risky business - at least for Fu Yan.

"So I also want to go together." Liu Ruosong said, "You don't need to be distracted to protect me. Since last time, I have worked hard to train my skills. Even if the quality of individual soldiers is not as good as yours, I will definitely not hold back."

"I'm not worried about this." Fu Yan said: "You are...a scientific researcher, so you don't need to go to the front line."

"I'm afraid you'll die somewhere I can't see again." Liu Ruosong didn't dare to look into Fu Yan's eyes when he said this. His voice was very low, as if he was avoiding a certain word, and the ending sound was light and slippery. Into the wind, mixed with the sound of the river: "If it doesn't work this time, then what should I do."

"It's okay." Fu Yan's voice was even and steady, not talking about his own life or death, but like talking about electronic equipment: "I promise you, I will do my best, if it really doesn't work, I'll do it again at worst."

"Since this is the case, wouldn't it be good for us to die together?" Liu Ruosong said softly, "Anyway, every time I close my eyes and open them, I have to do it all over again, and it won't delay anything if I die."

"No..." Fu Yan hesitated for a rare time, and his tone became a little hasty: "Restarting is regular, but it's not inevitable. In case I don't—"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Ruosong had already turned his head to look at him. Fu Yan had already realized something at this moment, and stopped talking abruptly, his expression becoming a little helpless.

"Wakamatsu, I..."

Colonel Fu is usually meticulous and capable outside, but when facing Liu Ruosong, he is always a little different.

If Liu Ruosong intends to trick him, it won't take too much trouble for Fu Yan to crash in. I don't know whether to say that he is defenseless in front of Liu Ruosong, or whether Liu Ruosong knows him better than Fu Yan himself.

"Brother, you will also worry that there will be no next time." Liu Ruosong's voice was very soft, as if coaxing him, very gentle: "You don't think it will be a day or two."

"I've thought about it." Fu Yan pursed his lips. He never lied to Liu Ruosong, and said truthfully, "I've thought about all the possibilities."

It's his temper, Liu Ruosong thought.

He will sort out all the possibilities by category, then consider them one by one, and finally pick one out to implement, and put the rest away as PlanB.

"Then if not, what should I do?" Liu Ruosong asked: "You died, I lived, and I didn't have to do it again. I can only take your large pension and return to the military region to continue working as a researcher. It's like In the first life, none of us restarted like that, but these two restarts are dreams created by me under the deepest grief."

Fu Yan's heart contracted suddenly, and that kind of neuralgia without warning followed his blood vessels and covered his whole body - but this time the source of the pain was the heart in his chest cavity. It brought a kind of dull pain, which was so painful that he couldn't breathe.

Liu Ruosong was very good at watching his expression and detecting his intentions, but this time he didn't soften his heart.

Liu Ruosong took half a step forward, stretched out his hand to caress Fu Yan's side face, and touched the cold sweat on his forehead with his fingertips.

"Life is boring." Liu Ruosong said in a low voice, "Without you, there would be nothing interesting in this world."

Fu Yan subconsciously grabbed Liu Ruosong's hand.

Liu Ruosong's words reminded him of He Tang in the first life, that little girl who was always happy. After He Feng got infected, the last thing she said to him was "I'm not a brave little girl".

These two sentences sounded irrelevant at first glance, but in Fu Yan's mind they overlapped inexplicably, and finally folded into a simple sentence "I can't bear you".

It seems that the obsession of everything in the world can stay on this "reluctance", because no matter what, I can't persuade myself to give up, so even life can become an irrelevant thing.

In Fu Yan's eyes, Liu Ruosong has always been free.

He is romantic, gentle, and has a high degree of empathy for everything in the world, like a gentle wind, wherever he goes, he is warm and comfortable.

He loves both the mountains and the sea. There are thousands of beauties in the world in his eyes and cameras, and none of them are more magnificent than himself.

Fu Yan does not underestimate himself, but sometimes he does feel that compared to other things Liu Ruosong likes, he is indeed a bit bland and boring.

But now Liu Ruosong said that without him, those things would be meaningless.

"Take me there." Liu Ruosong pleaded with him in a low voice, "I won't intentionally be indifferent, but I also don't want to wait like this anymore... It's hard to live without you."

Fu Yan's masseter muscles tightened, he squeezed Liu Ruosong's hand, and his chest heaved violently for a moment.

"……it is good."

After a long time, Fu Yancai seemed to have finally made up his mind, and repeated: "...Okay, let's go together this time."

Maybe today's sunset is too beautiful, or maybe Liu Ruosong has never begged Fu Yan like that before. In short, he briefly abandoned his reason and persistence, and Liu Ruosong just pried open a corner of the bottom line, and let out willful leaks from inside. A little selfishness.

The Honglan River rushes under the long bridge, and the rolling river moves forward, as if it will never turn back.

Under the dark night, the pointer of the mechanical watch slid past nineteen, and the second hand moved forward without stopping, making half a circle around.

"Five, four—"

Fu Yan counted down the countdown, He Feng held the handbrake lever, and slowly stepped on the accelerator, the vehicle made a very low roar on the spot, ready to go.

"three--"

Liu Ruosong stared at the second hand on the dial, and his heartbeat gradually accelerated.

"two--"

The stealth car lights turned on, illuminating the road ahead at a tricky angle, and the long iron bridge spread out from the Honglan River and extended to the central lake island.The line of sight was cut off by several buildings on the island in the middle of the lake, so the farther ahead turned into a dark nothingness, as if a beast with a huge mouth stretched out from the abyss was dormant in the dark night waiting for them to throw themselves into the net.

"one."

As soon as Fu Yan finished speaking, He Feng suddenly pulled down the brake lever, and the car accelerated within two seconds, almost flying onto the bridge.

At the same time, there was a sound of electricity coming from Liu Ruosong's earphones, and Feng Lei's logistics preparation team connected to the channel on time.

Liu Ruosong subconsciously turned her head and looked at Fu Yan. Fu Yan put on the goggles and turned to smile at him.

The vehicle accelerated to the extreme, and drove half of the distance in an instant. When approaching Jiangxin Island, He Feng stepped on the brakes suddenly, turned the wheel, and circled the roundabout from the outer circle in the direction he had hoped before.

Almost at the same time, an exclamation came from inside and outside Liu Ruosong's earphones.

Under the dark night, the light suddenly became brighter, and the originally silent opposite bank suddenly flew into the sky without any warning, about twenty welcome fireworks, and exploded in a flash.

"Surprise—"

Although it ruined the atmosphere by saying it, my mother couldn't help complaining about 23333 outside the venue, Xiao Liu really never felt that you were dull, brother Fu, he can pick up a lot of fun from you [bushi]
