When the law of conservation of isolation is broken

Joad suddenly raised his head and looked at Lu Xing, his chair made a harsh sound due to friction.But he didn't yell at Lu Xing, didn't speak, and didn't stand up because of shock, as if he didn't react at all.But Zhang Luotuo lowered his head, and he saw Joad's hand, which was trembling, trembling slightly. Those hands were propped on the table, passing through the virtual scenes, as if they were exhausted.

Joad opened his mouth to speak, but closed it again.Lu Xing looked at him meaningfully, waiting for his speech.After a long time, Joad said: "...you continue." His voice was very dry.

Zhang Luotuo worriedly held Joad's hand under the table.I…….he whispered to him.But couldn't finish the sentence.These chaotic information also grinded his mind, he felt that he was constantly sinking into the deep sea, and his bones were constantly shaking.

He could only gently reach out and hold Joad's hand tightly.

Lu Xing's voice rang heavily like a bell: "I think you probably have understood my subtext..." Lu Xing said, he saw their shock and began to lose interest, "Just like me at that time, I understood a lot by then, at least 50.00%. But I was still dying, so I secretly met someone, the only one..."

He paused for a while, and seemed to be in a long blank, then he came back to his senses and said, "Fan Liu."

"...Fan Liu?" Joad repeated, looking up in disbelief.

"Yes, Fan Liu." Lu Xing said comfortably, "but he is not the kind of person who will tell you whatever you ask, you know. If I just ask him like this, he will definitely not say anything , but he has a weakness, that is alcohol, he likes to drink, and his alcohol capacity is not good. I had a drink with him once when I was 15 years old. Try, maybe I can ask something when he's drunk."

Lu Xing tapped his hands rhythmically on the table, and he slowly recalled: "I said I needed to find him, and he opened his holographic image on Mars, then I picked up the wine I brought and said we Had an off-site drinking party, he agreed, and went to get his wine. I drank from my glass, and he drank a glass of wine he bought on Mars. Then he got drunk. I took the opportunity to ask him if he could give me the ex Photos of several administrations, since they all went back to Mars, I wanted to put their photos on my bedroom wall to motivate myself. As a result, he sent me the video without hesitation. ... Guess what?"

He raised his eyes: "I saw all the members of the management department since the establishment of Chongqing. There are more than a dozen of them. Then when I turned to the tenth, I saw very familiar people. The people in the photos smiled at me , the smile of the orange-haired girl is particularly conspicuous."

"I gave a boy in the four kilometers a sum of money and asked him to take this photo to find out if there are these people in the D area of ​​the cemetery. I also specially cut out the photo of the orange-haired girl. Please, if he finds her He put a bouquet of flowers with a bow in front of her box. That night, he came to me and told me that everyone was lying in the D area, and told me the detailed location. A week later, I pretended no intention I came there again, just like the boy said, I found all the people in the management department one by one. I also saw the flower that the boy sent, it is still there, and in the crystal box is the girl with orange hair .Her hair was as dazzling as it was before she died, with stitches and scars on her head, lying in a square box with a calm face."

His eyes sparkled: "None of them went back to Mars."

Zhang Luotuo felt that Joad's strength in holding his hand was slowly decreasing.

Lu Xing smiled, as if he heard something funny, the mysterious and complex smile widened on his face: "I think you should understand what this means, boss, you have always been very smart."

He faced Joad with a sarcastic tone: "Think about it, in fact, every management department is lying in the D area of ​​the cemetery. But why didn't we know it before? When the four-year term came, they disappeared. We took it for granted that They resigned and returned to Mars, and other people in Chongqing didn't care at all, because they hated the management department. In fact, those management departments who left office were taken to a certain room and persuaded to do it by the operating table like those people in my dream A sterilization operation to return to Mars, in fact, to die, and then thrown into the D area."

Lu Xing's voice gradually increased, his complexion turned red again, pink flush poured into his forehead, he looked extremely weak: "I realized then, Mars never intended to let us go back, they just wanted to Let us stay here. In other words, no one can go back, and once they come to Earth, they are actually abandoned."

The sound rushed into Zhang Camel's ears.was abandoned.The voice was repeated in shock in his ears, and it sounded harsh.But he couldn't even speak, let the voice stop, because he felt the contents of the words were so horrifying, oppressing him, that he couldn't even move him—not to mention Joad, his hands were loose. Yes, slumped over the chair, seemed completely stunned.

"As for us, the fate of the No. 18 Management Department is probably the same as theirs." Lu Xing said coldly.

He paused, then laughed for some reason, his laughter was like a sharp current, and it took him a long time to stop.He noticed that there was silence in the room, neither Zhang Luotuo nor Qiao De said a word.He raised his eyebrows, sat up, suppressed the laughter back to his throat, and took a breath: "If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself, go to the cemetery, what I said is true, I still have their images here."

He spread his hand and threw a silver sheet, which was thrown into the air, passed through the shining image of the building, and slid across the table to Joad.

He didn't wait for Joad to take it, and laughed again, his laughter was low, like the sound of a mechanical mouse gnawing on white paper: "I'm sorry, but I want to laugh."

"Look at you, your complexion is so bad, you must never have imagined that there will be such a day." He took a deep breath, but couldn't hold it back, and laughed again, his face was flushed, and those lights and shadows fluttered on his face, like extra toxins , He stared at Joad's extremely pale face, Zhang Luotuo also turned his head, staring at that face, that face was different from the past, showing an almost blank look, without any superfluous things.

"Jode?" Zhang Luotuo tried to open his mouth and whispered worriedly, but his murmur was covered by Lu Xing.

"You know what? This is the happiest thing I've ever done today..." He said loudly, smiling, "You think you're superior to Zeng Ling, you all think you're superior to Zeng Lin. But you're not. You, Me, not even a copycat. We're all going to die, but they can live on after every four years, but we can't. We're going to die and be put in D-0, the ghetto, homeless A place where people belong. This is our sense of superiority, our final home.”

Lu Xing laughed and shook his head, he laughed too much, he had to hold back the pain in his stomach, and crawled on the table: "You still want to take him back to Mars... wishful thinking."

He shook his head, watching them viciously through the gaps in his arms, his smile was distorted, almost crying: "Zeng Lin——If Zeng Lin knew—"

Zeng Lin, he mentioned Zeng Lin again, as if it was a hurdle in his life that he could not pass.

Zhang Luotuo could no longer see Joad's facial expression clearly, it was blocked by the light spots and shadows.

Zhang Luotuo couldn't even say a word, he wanted to reach out again and touch Joad, but he didn't know if his action was correct, and finally he didn't think about it anymore, he stretched out his hand and held Joad: at least tell He, he is here.

Lu Xing was still laughing, and the laughter burst out of his throat with a delay.He laughed again and again, laughing at Joad who was like him, his community of fate—his laughter would never stop.

"I'm sorry." But a voice suddenly sounded softly, interrupting his laughter.

Lu Xing was stunned, his smile still remained on his lips, and it was too late to disappear, then he looked at the source of the voice in a daze.

Zhang Luotuo stared blankly at Qiao De.

The sound was hallucinatory.

"What?" Lu Xing sat up, he said blankly.

"I'm sorry." The voice sounded calmly again, interrupting everything.Joad looked up, his gray eyes escaping from the smeared light and the jeers, returning to their original color and gleaming.

Zhang Luotuo looked into those eyes, and was stunned for a moment. There was no sense of humiliation, unwillingness to apologize, or anger at being humiliated by Lu Xing in those eyes. There was only pertinent calm and a feeling of being stationed in those eyes.

Zhang Luotuo had seen that emotion before, at a certain moment, a certain inaudible moment, that was a long time ago, when Joad mustered up his courage and apologized to him.The emotion flashed past, condensing Joad's gray eyes tightly.

He felt a hand move, and he looked down. It was Joad's hand.Joad gently shook his hand, which was even shaking, as if seeking support and dispelling all doubts.

Zhang Luotuo suddenly realized, and he held it back tightly. Although his mind was blank, he did not hesitate.

Lu Xing was stunned: "What are you talking about?" He tried to sneer, but his face turned extremely pale.

"I'm sorry." Joad said, he ignored Lu Xing's tone and said calmly.He was a little clumsy when he said this, he was not used to saying this at all, but he persisted and finished speaking with a sincere tone, just like his voice to Zhang Luotuo, his voice was extremely dry, "I want to say sorry to you."

Lu Xing said in a tone that could not be heard emotionally: "What is it? About you not being able to go back to Mars? You don't need to say it, you can't go back anyway." He felt that he had opened a wound on Qiao De's wound He smiled, and sneered twice again, but the voice was not as heartfelt as before, and he looked a little surprised.

Joad shook his head, obviously he didn't pay attention to the fact that he couldn't go back to Mars: "It's about Zeng Lin, and you."

Lu Xing trembled when he heard Zeng Lin, but he immediately covered it up with a sneer of disdain, his eyes were extremely cold: "Why do you pretend to be like this?"

He looked back: "After all, you don't know at all, and you can't understand the pain at all. Everything is just an obstacle to return to Mars for you. Now that obstacle includes yourself-your heart has long been frozen Stop, you don't have to force yourself to apologize."

He is very aggressive.But Joad did not shrink back because of his cynicism. On the contrary, he raised his head, looked directly at Lu Xing, and said calmly: "Maybe you are right, my heart has been frozen long ago, I am not qualified to say that, especially It was in front of you and Zeng Lin. But I still want to apologize. I never understood the pain before and didn’t take it seriously, because at that time I only knew the feeling of being frozen in my heart, but I didn’t know how to use my frozen heart What is it like to be roasted by fire, but then to be frozen again?"

Joad described it almost like a clumsy child: "Until I feel it myself, I understand."

Lu Xing was still smiling, but his smile was not as comfortable as before, but more like a disguise. Whenever Joad said something, the smile became stiffer.Maybe it was because he never expected to hear such words from Joad.Heart.Apologize.frozen.Those almost surprising emotions.

"That's very painful." Joad murmured, "When you already know about emotion and have it, but God wants to take it back, it's like having life and then dying again, You just watch the void come over you and you want to fight but you can’t, you can’t even protest because it’s God’s decision, but you still feel the pain — it hurts.”

Lu Xing didn't speak for a long time, he just looked directly at Joad, and he could get everything he was thinking like that.

Joad continued, thoughtfully: "It hurts so much that you feel like you really have nothing."

He raised his head and looked straight at Lu Xing, who no longer hid his emotions, and he also looked straight at Joad.Joad paused for a moment, then said firmly and softly: "...so no matter what, I want to apologize—to you and Zeng Lin."

"...as your old friend."

The laughter completely disappeared from Lu Xing's mouth, he seemed to have forgotten what a smile was, and the smile also withdrew from the muscles of his face, he no longer smiled, no longer pretended, many emotions flashed by, but Immediately returned to calm.Then Lu Xing chuckled again. He buried his head in his hands, and laughed while lying on the table, which made the table shake.He raised his head again, Zhang Luotuo and Qiao De saw him clearly.Lu Xing didn't smile anymore, there were tears in his eyes, and the tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.The room was very quiet, except for the faint crying.Finally he sat up, and his face had become the same as usual, although the pink still rested on his skin like a daily tide.

"Who do you think you are?" He took a deep breath and said, "...he is dead, what's the use of your apology."

He avoided Joad's gaze, lowered his head, and said nothing else, his slight sobbing sound filled the room, he couldn't suppress the sound, he could only let it flow freely.

The hologram shone silently on the table.After a while, the sound became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared.Lu Xing rubbed the bridge of his nose with his hands, hid himself in the shadows, and still said nothing, as if tears had made him lose the ability to speak.

After a long time, he completely recovered a calmness that was almost equivalent to indifference, and finally spoke.

"You let him go," he said, very tired.

"I mean him." Looking at their confused expressions, he pointed to Zhang Luotuo, who moved inexplicably.

Lu Xing saw that they didn't understand what he meant, and lowered his head, his hand swiped the keys on the table again as before.Red, transparent, yellow.Finally his hand rested on a blue key.

"Do you know what this key is?" He suddenly raised his head and asked

Joad glanced at it, and said with some doubts for the first time: "Call the waiter button."

Lu Xing nodded: "Yes." He said, thoughtfully, "But if I press it, it won't be the waiter who comes in, but Zhao Yi and her people."

Zhang Luotuo trembled suddenly.

Joad's eyes sharpened, and he glanced reflexively toward the door, but all he saw was peace.

"They are in the lobby on the first floor." Lu Xing explained, and he pointed to the door, "You can go and have a look, next to the elevator, there is a small balcony where you can look down."

Qiao De stood up, and Zhang Luotuo followed.It was very quiet outside the door, there was no sound.The leather shoes step on the floor, reflecting the LED screen of the elevator.Joad walked softly to the small balcony and leaned against the dead corner of the elevator. He looked at the first floor expressionlessly, his gray eyes sparkling.Then he seemed to understand something, and gave up his seat to Zhang Luotuo.

Zhang Luotuo lowered his head.In a white gap, the lights and shadows of countless games flickered.Standing alone in the middle of the first floor, her expression was indifferent and arrogant, her nose ring was shining, and her hands were in her pockets.And four or five people surrounded her, their pockets looked bulging, as if they were carrying something.

She raised her head and glanced up unconsciously.

Zhang Luotuo unconsciously took a step back.

She didn't see him.

They retreated to the room.

Lu Xing sat calmly on the seat, and he casually glanced at their changed facial expressions: "Did you see it?" He said without surprise, turned the chair slightly, thoughtfully, and continued Said, "This is my idea—Jode, to make you suffer for the rest of your life. I hate you because of Zeng Lin, and I hate you now. I want to tell you all the truth, and then push you to hell. Before I came, I and Zhao Once the appointment is made, I will invite you and him here—"

He glanced at Zhang Luotuo lightly: "Of course, the premise is that he is still alive. She told me so. I want to press this button after I tell you everything, and let him be taken away in front of you , just like when I saw Zeng Lin die."

Qiao De understood immediately, he protected Zhang Luotuo behind him, but Lu Xing didn't care about his movements, his eyes stopped on the blue button, and he rubbed his hands gently on it, and continued to murmur: "As long as I Press this button, and they will rush up from the first floor to see if he is here... and now, I'm ready..."

Lu Xing raised his head and stared at them sharply: "...But now I am too tired from playing the game, I can't see anything clearly, and I need a 1-minute break. I don't know what happened during this 1 minute. "

"1 minutes, only 1 minutes."

He lay back on the chair and closed his eyes.
