mayfly era

When the two returned to the laboratory, Kujira glanced at the deep hole on the metal countertop, curled his lips, "You pay me for the countertop."

Chen Li had already recovered, but was still weak and his hair was wet. He turned his head and glanced, and said, "Okay, I'll come back to compensate you."

The prosthetic printing machine starts to work, and the liquid metal and invisible electromagnetic force are woven together to form a metal skin, which is floating softly in the woven space.

Kujira lowered her head to treat Chen Yue's wound, a large amount of fabric and metal debris mixed into the burnt flesh. At this time, the machine is far less delicate than manual work. She cleaned it for a while and raised her head.

"Now I can give you painkillers."

"No, it's numb." Chen Li said weakly.

As he breathed, the skin and flesh that had suffered so much trembled slightly. The surgical scar had been completely scalded and could no longer be seen clearly.

Covering scars with scars is a very cruel thing.

Chen Li was thinking about the sun on the high seas.

There is everything in the sea, but there is no human civilization.

Maybe there is civilization deep in the bottom of the sea, on the dark land, maybe it is another world, and Leviathan came from there.

They have nothing to do on the boat but bask in the sun or verbally attack each other for fun.Everyone is tanned, like a group of mud monkeys that have just been unearthed, and the magical species of Laoyan is still pale no matter how tanned, the whole person is shining in the sun.

After returning to Central City for three years, the sunless city has whitened its skin a lot. There is no harsh sunlight flying in all directions on the high seas, and there is a gloomy fog everywhere. There are so many people on the streets. Human civilization is highly developed. Not as happy as being at sea.

"Old Yan, I'm hungry, help me get something to eat." Chen Yue suddenly opened his mouth and pointed at the bong.

Kujira was about to say something, but he pursed his lips again, lowered his head and continued to pick the fabric fibers in the wound.

The smoking gun nodded and went out.

They are all smart people, he knows that Chen Li is not really hungry, but just has something to say to Kujira.

Kujira tilted the upper part of the operating table, and the robotic arm slowly moved directly above the wound, supporting the metal skin.

The metal skin fluctuates like life, in constant electromagnetic motion.

"It's a little numb, don't move around," Kujira said.

"Hmm." Chen Li looked at the overly bright surgical lamp above his head, thinking about the sun on the open sea.

Electromagnetism hooked on the surface of the skin defect like a hook. Severe pain and tingling were intertwined strangely. Cold sweat dripped down the contours of his face. Pieces of blood.

But he was very calm, and his eyes were not in a daze looking at the lamp.

"What are you going to tell me?" Kujira asked, her voice softened a bit. After all, no doctor would be harsh on a patient.

"Thank you." Chen Li said.

"You're welcome, it's my duty to see you," Kujira said.

"Next time, don't quarrel at the door. The structural sound gathering here is better than eavesdropping." Chen Li smiled, feeling a little helpless.

Kujira was stunned for a moment, and then she burst out laughing, "Good guy, you still have the strength to eavesdrop, are you human?"

"I don't want to hear any messy love stories either."

The metal skin acts as a needle through electromagnetism, and attaches to the skin at a constant speed. The cold, tingling, and burn sensations work together, and the electric shock makes Chen Que tremble slightly.

Kujira crossed his slender waist, his almond eyes glared angrily, "It's such a mess, my old lady just likes to have a crush."

"Crow is a little girl whose brain is often short of oxygen. If you have a crush on a fart, she can feel that there is a ghost." Chen Yue said rudely.

"You're just out of oxygen," Kujira retorted angrily, "Shouldn't you understand this kind of fledgling complex?"

"I was only eighteen at that time, and she was already 25, and she was still a fucking chick."

Kujira choked and didn't know what to say for a while.

Chen Li turned to look at Kujira, his face was pale, and he smiled lightly, he seldom smiled, but when he smiled clearly, it was flying and charming.

"Kujira, it seems that you are not that 'worm'."

"What do you mean?" Kujira frowned.

Chen Li murmured in a low voice, "...if you are a 'moth', you will be in big trouble."

"Who's the 'worm'?" Kujira asked.

"You can't say it until you show your face."

"There will be a traitor between us?" Kujira touched her lips, her eyes became a little dazed, "I don't even dare to imagine this."

"Don't worry, it's mostly a personal grievance." Chen Li said indifferently.

"If there is a 'worm', then what he betrayed is not RC, but himself," Kujira said, "What he betrayed is the memories of life and death for so many years... What's wrong with having such courage."

"He will have his own reasons." Chen Li said.

"Then how can you be sure that this person is not me?" Kujira pointed to himself.

"I'm not going to rob women with you, you're going to hurt me."

Kujira's eyebrows instantly stood up, "If you talk about this again... go out and sew your own skin!"

Chen Li laughed, "You were quite aggressive when talking to Lao Yan, why are you so gentle now?"

"Because...you have always been a patient in my eyes." Kujira's tone seemed to sigh.

"You hope I'll order something better." Chen Li said helplessly.

The metal skin was sewn together, and Kujira pushed the prosthetic machine away.Without bionic skin, it looks like a robot patch on a living person.

It was the first time to attach metal skin. Chen Li wanted to reach out to touch it, but Kujira slapped it away.

Kujira moved another machine, "Fake the time of injury, it's a bit hot, bear with it."

Chen Li moaned indistinctly, and said softly, "There's nothing I can't bear."

"I'll prescribe some oral painkillers for you, don't touch it randomly, it's troublesome if it festers." Kujira said.

Chen Li nodded.

"Either stay here to sleep for a while, or go to find your boyfriend, who has been barking at the door for a long time." Kujira said.

"Then I definitely won't keep you here." Chen Li said and jumped off the operating table.

"You beast." Kujira's voice was crisp, and his lips parted, cursing in various ways.

"Give me a set to deal with burns." Chen Li said.

Kujira gave a "hmm", fetched some things for Chen Li, and said, "Be careful, animal."

Chen Li nodded.

Watching the animals leave, Kujira sighed, and sat slumped on the operating table. She pinched the center of her brows for a while, raised her tired face, and raised her foot to knock on the heel of her high-heeled shoes.

The crisp knocking sound can calm her down as soon as possible.

Her gaze wandered for a moment, then settled on the assembly table.

Three or four deep pits were punched out by Chen Yue on the metal table, and Kujira's slender fingers slid across these marks lightly and smoothly.

What kind of power is this, it is frightening.

It hurts again.

Smoker stood at the door, focused his voice, and heard it clearly. When Chen Li walked out, his legs softened inexplicably, and he almost sat on the ground.

"Go, go to the infirmary." Chen Li said, his voice was light and weightless because of his weakness.

Smoker blinked his sore eyes, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Chen Li said.

Black Soul is not in the infirmary, only a few treatment beds are lying by the window, looking empty and friendly, Chen Li pointed to one of them and said to the smoking gun, "Sit."

Smoker was puzzled and anxious, and he was in total confusion.

Seeing that the pipe was not moving, Chen Li said helplessly, "Look down at your arm, do you feel it? Is it comfortable or not?"

The sleeves of the leather jacket were burnt through, and there was a smell of burnt blood wrapped around it. After Chen Li picked it up a few times, he saw seven or eight blisters the size of a fingernail. From the arm to the back of the hand, flesh and medicine were stuck together.

"No, I don't feel pain." Smoker said in a daze.

"You have one eye short, and you want to lose another hand?"

"It's not... not that serious."

"Oh, don't let me coax you again, be obedient."

Smoker immediately sat down obediently, and began to take off his clothes consciously, but not too many clothes fibers were stuck to his flesh, after all, Chen Li did not wear out-of-date cotton-like fiber clothes.

"I don't care about clothes this time? Who said it's hard to buy." Chen Li handed things to the pipe to treat the wound, while holding the pipe's arm to help him stabilize his movements.

"Don't laugh at me." Smoker said with a painful expression.

On the contrary, Chen Yue looked very relaxed. He even raised his arm to compare with the smoking gun, "You're not good at exercising, Lao Yan, I'm almost overtaking you."

His ease is frightening, but he seems to be really relaxed. He even smiled a few times more than before, and his movements were still fast and powerful when he tied the medicine cloth for the bong.

Smoker understood that it was because Chen Li wanted the two of them to relax.Not only let him relax, but also let yourself relax.

After all this was done, the two of them lay on the same treatment bed, as they had done many times before, but this time, Chen Li wrapped his arms around the waist of the pipe, as intimate as a cub that had finally found a mate.

"Old Yan..." Chen Li called him half-grown and half-thought.

"Ok?"

"Could you pick up some and wear a belt anyway."

"I'm wronged. You borrowed all my belt..."

Chen Li rubbed his hands on his face viciously, and then said softly in a voice that didn't match his movements, "When I come back, I'll buy you a new leather jacket and treat you to a good meal."

"Okay," said Smoker softly.

Covering the bong with his hand, Chen Li rubbed his hand wrapped in a medicinal cloth for a while. His breathing was very even. Calmness was the expression he was most used to when facing the heavy rain.

None of them spoke anymore.

Chen Li's slightly cool fingers clenched into a fist on the back of the pipe's hand, knocking like his own heart.

"When I come back, don't do anything else, this is the task."

"……clear."
