When the law of conservation of isolation is broken

When the spaceship slid down to Qianhui Market, Zhang Luotuo checked the time and made sure that there was enough time left for them to reach Fan Liu's house.He yawned while watching, because he got up too early today, and when he opened his eyes, he felt extremely sensitive that it was that day.

The planned week flies by like light speed, and Saturday arrives in no time.

During the day, he and Joad hammered out the plan many times.Lu Xing, who didn't have to go to work, went out early in the morning to perform his task: to consume Fan Liu's time.And Zheng Zheng went out to pick up the reserved wine, but she came back later than they expected, a lot later to be precise, and she didn't come back until around three o'clock in the afternoon.According to her, "Fomen" wine is very popular. When she went to pick up the reserved wine, she was squeezed into the crowd and it took a long time to get out of there.

At night, Qiao De and Fan Liu made the last phone call to confirm that they would arrive at his home at ten o'clock in the evening as scheduled.

Joad's spaceship descended slowly, stopping at a small parking lot at a constant speed and carefully, avoiding hitting other spaceships.

Fan Liu.Zhang Luotuo chanted the name, remembering that he would see him tonight.

The spaceship has already ferried in the docking yard, and the buzzing sound gradually extinguished.Zhang Luotuo squeezed the signal jammer in his hand, it was given to them by Lu Xing, once the circular button in the middle was pressed, it would cause signal interference.Just press it before entering the room.He felt that the seat belt around his waist was unbuckled by Joad, he nodded, followed behind Joad, and stepped off the spaceship.

The headlights of a spaceship next door suddenly turned on. Qiao De and Zhang Luotuo pretended to look over unintentionally. The window of the spaceship cabin was gently rolled down, revealing a pair of eyes. Zhang Luotuo was very familiar with the color of those eyes. It was Zheng Zheng's, and beside her, a hand waved towards them in the dark, and there was no doubt that it was Lu Xing.They came here as planned, in the small parking lot, if something unexpected happens, they can help Zhang Luotuo and Qiao De, respond or do something else.

Zhang Luotuo and Qiao De passed by the spaceship quietly and walked out of the parking lot.The signboard of Qianhui Market shone above their heads like dirty jewels.They walk in and walk through it.Zhang Luotuo has been here many times, he has enough experience to be dragged by Qiao, and he passed through the tide-like crowd without changing his face, moving forward in various smells.But when he came to the group of girls, he still flinched instinctively and hid to Joad's right side, and he felt Joad gently holding his hand.

Those noisy voices and complicated smells were finally left behind them, and Jinshan Apartment was waiting for them like a tombstone of the ultimate battle that would appear in the game.

They took the elevator to the door of the apartment.

Joad pressed the doorbell, and the crisp bells rang one after another.The sound made Zhang Luotuo stunned for a moment. He seemed to have returned to half a year ago. He and Joad were standing at the door like this. It was the first time he heard the ringtone. The blue facial recognition network was tightly bound to Joad. face.

Joad squeezed his hand lightly.Zhang Luotuo came back to his senses, took a deep breath, pressed the button of the signal jammer, and put it into his jacket pocket.

The door is automatically opened at the same time.They walked in, their shoes rattling against the floor.

"It was just ten o'clock when you came in," said one, in an old and soft voice.

Zhang Luotuo raised his head. He was not surprised to see Fan Liu's holographic image had appeared in the room, waiting for them. He was sitting on the sofa facing the door, with a slight white light all over his body. When he heard footsteps coming in, He turned around and glanced at Qiao De and Zhang Luotuo casually.

Zhang Luotuo looked at him, suppressed his nervousness, and carefully moved his hand to push the signal jammer in his jacket pocket deeper to prevent it from falling out.

"Hello," he said, acting like a patient about to see a doctor.

Fan Liu didn't care about his greeting, or he never cared about it, he just waved casually, like all doctors, and directly signaled Zhang Luotuo to get closer to him, otherwise his holographic image would disappear: "Is it just the arm?" he said, but not to Zhang Luotuo, but to Joad, like the arm that grew on Joad.

"Only the arm needs to be checked." Joad and Zhang Luotuo looked at each other and said with certainty.

Zhang Luotuo walked over cautiously, getting close enough to Fan Liu, even though he didn't know what he meant.In the next second, Fan Liu said kindly but coldly: "Sit down, so I can check your arm for you."

Zhang Luotuo lowered his head and looked at the chair next to him. He understood and sat down.Fan Liu's holographic image came over and stopped beside him, looking at Zhang Luotuo's arm with translucent eyes, then he signaled Zhang Luotuo to roll up his sleeves and move his arms.Zhang Luotuo did so, and Fan Liu lowered his head to carefully observe the direction of movement of the arm and the sound it made.

"Today, Lu Xing didn't know why he wanted me to accompany him, so I went out with him and used up the time for using the prosthetic, otherwise it would be easier to manipulate the prosthetic to check his body." said the voice, explaining to Joad as he checked.

His translucent palm passed over Zhang Luotuo's arm and stopped at Zhang Luotuo's knee. He lowered his head slightly to look at that arm for a while, and was silent for a while, then his eyes slid from his knee to his wrist.

"The knee is fine...the wrist..." He murmured to check, beckoning Zhang Luotuo to twist his wrist.

Zhang Luotuo did so, and he heard the bones in his wrists rattle.In the ear, Joad cleared his throat, and the voice sounded: "Is there any problem with him?"

Fan Liu raised his hand as if he didn't hear what he said, and Zhang Luotuo raised his hand as well. After looking at him for a while, Fan Liu turned his head, glanced at Qiao De, and replied: "It should be Nothing serious, all joints are intact."

He turned his head and glanced at Zhang Luotuo: "Do you feel pain? How painful?"

Zhang Luotuo didn't allow himself to think, he replied calmly, as if there was such a thing: "It hurts a bit, but it's not serious."

Fan Liu nodded: "I guess it's just the running-in period of the new prosthetic body." His translucent palm slid across Zhang Luotuo's arm again, as if it was an ending movement, obviously he didn't find any serious problems.

"It's nothing serious. Just take some medicine." He said, turning his head away, and beckoned to Joad gently, "Go to the drawer and get three black pills, which can help him recover better."

Zhang Luotuo watched Qiao De come over, holding three pills, and Big A had already brought him a drink.Zhang Luotuo sniffed it cautiously. There was no metallic smell in it, just the ordinary smell of water.Obviously there is no need to take the C33 pill this time.he couldn't help thinking.He drank the glass of water in one gulp, feeling the coolness gradually spread from his throat, and Joad was beside him, patting his back.

Fan Liu stood up and left beside Zhang Luotuo. His pure white holographic image flickered because of signal problems.

"Those children are a little anxious because of his affairs." Fan Liu said, he glanced at Zhang Luotuo again, and seemed to feel that Zhang Luotuo was fine, so he changed the subject and chatted with Qiao De, Zhang Luotuo noticed his right hand The silver ring, which was shining with his movement, "Especially Zhao Yi, you know that she has been manic since she was a child. Several people in the management department are scared because of her recent behavior, and three people have already talked to me. "

His tone was very calm, Zhang Luotuo couldn't tell if it meant accusation, so he lowered his eyes.

Joad nodded: "I resumed work this week, and I tried not to make her suspicious." His tone was very calm, no one would have imagined that he let Zhang Luotuo slip away from Zhao Yi's nose last week .After he finished speaking, he cleared his throat lightly, frowned, and seemed to feel a little uncomfortable.Zhang Luotuo raised his head and glanced at Qiao De, and Fan Liu, like him, seemed to have noticed this too.

"Are you okay?" He asked with concern, "I have throat clearing medicine here."

But Joad just waved his hand at him: "No problem, I want to talk to you about Mars' recent policy." He cleared his throat again, as if to suppress something, coughing or something, Zhang Luotuo lowered his head, gently She glanced at him sideways, showing a little worried look.And Qiao De, Zhang Luotuo expected without surprise, just as they planned, did not respond to his gaze, he started talking again, and talked about a "991 Act" with Fan Liupan, obviously he was very interested in that policy Very familiar.

But it's a start, a signal.Zhang Luotuo knew.He held the cup and kept breathing silently, just like the plan said.And he really couldn't get in the conversation, the conversation between Fan Liu and Qiao De was like chess pieces, so he could only occasionally lower his head to take a sip of water in the glass and listen carefully to Qiao De's words.

The conversation between Qiao De and Fan Liu was very pleasant.Joad has been talking about topics that Fan Liu is interested in, and his tone is as usual, speaking lightly and naturally, with Joad's unique indifference and logic, which quickly makes people get involved. Unconsciously, Zhang Luotuo also fascinated by his speech.At the same time, Zhang Luotuo noticed Qiao De's subtle reaction. He neither completely agrees nor disagrees with Fan Liu's views, but they all have a positive attitude.This made Fan Liu very satisfied. He felt respected, so he spoke more and more vigorously. The crutch hit the floor several times, and his translucent body lost color frames due to trembling.

The conversation looks perfect, and that's why any flaws seem so glaring and noticeable.Zhang Luotuo knew this.Therefore, he didn't speak out, nor interrupted Fan Liu and Qiao De's conversation. He didn't want to give Fan Liu any time to get angry, which would waste their plans.He just kept his head down, looking intently at his own glass.

The flaw was actually Joad, who cleared his throat several times during the conversation, although his voice was very soft and tried to restrain it, the voice still rang out uncontrollably, and occasionally the throat clearing died, and the coughing came and went again rattle.This interrupted the conversation between Fan Liu and him several times. Several times when Fan Liu was talking about excitement, or wanted to put forward an exquisite point of view, Joad would just make a sound of clearing his throat and coughing to interrupt Fan Liu's train of thought. The interest fades, and they have to take a while to sort out the conversation before they can move on.

Zhang Luotuo didn't say a word, he listened to the cough and quietly counted the times it appeared.

Fan Liu talked about a plan to imitate human idols: "I think—"

Joad cleared his throat in due course and coughed twice.

"Go and get some pills." Fan Liu finally couldn't help it anymore, he said seriously, sighed, facing Qiao De who was struggling to suppress his cough and his back was trembling.Zhang Luotuo, who was bored, immediately stood up, ready to look for the pills.

"No need." Qiao De grabbed Zhang Luotuo's hand and waved to Fan Liu, indicating that he was fine.

"I don't want to take medicine, I just need some water." He turned his head and motioned to Zhang Luotuo, "Where's my water? Give me a drink."

He raised his head and showed a puzzled expression to Zhang Luotuo.

Zhang Luotuo pretended to be stunned for a moment, and then he understood again: "Right now." He said, he turned his head, maintained a pace that seemed to be in a panic, turned around under Fan Liu's sight, and walked to his backpack In front of him, there is usually Mao Mao inside, but now there are other things inside.He rummaged for a while before he pulled out a green bottle.

"Buddhist gate".The black cursive characters on it clearly read, facing Fan Liu.

Zhang Luotuo pretended not to know anything and handed it to Qiao De, without even looking at the bottle: "Water."

But Fan Liu could see clearly, he narrowed his eyes suspiciously, and looked at Zhang Luotuo: "Wait, this is not water." He swung his crutch lightly, and his eyes moved to Qiao De worriedly.

"What?" Joad's doubts seemed just right. He was about to unscrew the bottle cap of "Buddha Gate", but now he hesitated and lowered his head to look at the bottle's logo. "Buddhist gate".The cursive characters on the wine were extremely clear under the light, and shone slightly against the holographic projection.

He turned his head and said to Zhang Luotuo, "What's going on?"

Zhang Luotuo had a panoramic view of Joad's bewildered gestures, and he also frowned pretending to be confused, walked to Joad's side, and pointed the wine sign at himself: "Sorry." He immediately revealed a classic after making a mistake With an expression of self-blame and shame, "I took the wrong one before I went out. The packaging of this wine is very similar to that of water."

He even compared them in the air, they were all green bottles made of glass, and good water these days was as precious as wine.

Joad made a reproachful but forgiving gesture to him. He picked up the wine bottle, sniffed it, and unscrewed the bottle cap of "Buddha Gate", and the strong smell of wine immediately wafted away.He took a sip tentatively, and his bitter expression was immediately thrown out.

"No." He cleared his throat lightly again, and said in disbelief.

Fan Liu glanced keenly at Zhang Luotuo. Zhang Luotuo felt his gaze. He tried his best to pretend to be embarrassed: "I'm really sorry..." He whispered.

Joad shook his head. He took a silk scarf and spit out the liquid in his mouth: "I don't want to drink at this time." Then he put the 'Ford Gate' on the table as if he didn't care, he didn't cover the bottle cap, the smell of wine It diffused everywhere, and soon covered the whole room, and the green glass bottle shone right in front of Fan Liu.

Fan Liu glanced over the wine bottle, and then the bottle cap.He cleared his throat, and the crutches that had been standing were gently shaken.He looked calm, but his feet changed several sitting positions within ten seconds, and he was a little restless.

"Let's continue talking." Qiao De packed up everything, raised his head, and said to Fan Liu.

Fan Liu came back to his senses, he nodded solemnly, and watched Joad put the cap on the wine bottle again, the liquid in the glass bottle rippling slightly.His Adam's apple rolled, and his vision flickered. After a while, he came back to his senses, and gestured to Big A who was staying aside: "Bring some water." Big A immediately started to drink water on the floor Gliding up, a few seconds later, it came back here, with a water glass on its head, and walked to Joad's side.

After Joad drank the water, he stopped clearing his throat immediately. He returned to normal, continued to pick up the topic that was interrupted earlier, and continued the deep chat.And Zhang Luotuo returned to his original seat and sat down quietly, showing a look of drowsiness from their conversation, and actually secretly took advantage of this period to look at Fan Liu.He found that Fan Liu didn't keep up with Joad. Most of the time, he just nodded slightly, or agreed with Joad. His opinion seemed to disappear in an instant, and his soul had already drifted away.There was also Fan Liu's hand - Zhang Luotuo noticed that it had been trembling slightly, as if something had happened that shocked him - but everything was peaceful here, except for the bottle of wine, which was shining.

Zhang Luotuo noticed that his gaze was always gliding across the wine bottle intentionally or unintentionally, and every time he strove over the wine bottle, his hands trembled more frequently.

Zhang Luotuo was wondering when Fan Liu would be unbearable.Fan Liu's Adam's apple rolled more frequently, and that obviously had nothing to do with Qiao De's words, he was not even listening to Fan Liu's words.

Fan Liu started to sweat.

Zhang Luotuo felt that it was about time.

But he still waited for a while, Fan Liu still didn't say anything, although he couldn't stop exhaling lightly.Zhang Luotuo even began to doubt whether this trick would work, or Fan Liu had already realized the harm of alcohol.

Fan Liu suddenly raised his head: "Sorry, I have to interrupt."

His voice interrupted Zhang Luotuo's anxious thinking, he shrugged under Joad's seemingly stunned expression, and said in a tired voice, "I'm very busy this week... Joad, you know, it's a big day for Mars recently Well, the city celebration day is coming, it's already November, I'm too busy to touch the ground."

Joad recalled for a while, showing a thoughtful look: "I almost forgot. Yes, City Festival. Celebrating the first day of human beings' arrival on Mars. I remember that every family is preparing gifts at this time, My dad even gave me a specimen."

Fan Liu waved his hand, and the afterimage of the holographic image flashed past: "I've been very busy recently, Mars has a lot of demands..." He paused, a little embarrassed, "I'm so busy that I don't even know who I am, what kind of leisure activities I haven't done it yet, and eating and drinking are just coping with it..."

He paused, raised his eyes, looked at Joad, and his image trembled: "I just remembered when I saw me. I haven't drunk for almost half a month. I just controlled it for a while, but I can't do it." Well, your wine has whetted my appetite. Would you mind if I go and grab a bottle from the fridge?"

Joad pursed his lips calmly in his sight and shook his head slightly.

"I don't mind." The voice was very calm, no different from his usual.

Zhang Luotuo stared at the dark floor, blinked his eyes, and felt his heart beating violently at this moment.He clearly saw the words thrown on the ground and made a sound, it was transmitted into those lines, entered the enclosed atmosphere, and with the help of the signal, it reached the distant Mars and penetrated into Fan Liu's cochlea.

"I'll turn off the holographic projection." Fan Liu said relievedly, "I'm going to get the wine, and I'll be here right away."

Zhang Luotuo gently crossed out the "unfinished" of the first item of the task in his mind, and then trembled.
