"I also want to think that you are behind the scenes,"

Si Lu took a sip of cold beer, sighed a long sigh of satisfaction, and said, "the question is, are you that piece of material?"

After many years of absence, the thorn figure of life and death is sitting beside him with his legs crossed and a can of beer in his hand. No matter the expression, the way of speaking, the posture of walking... Even his own hair, which was cut in a mess, was exactly the same as before situ disappeared that year.

"I don't understand why someone likes this thing," he finally swallowed a mouthful of beer, immediately breathed and opened his mouth, as if to let the wind douse his mouth with alcohol, "it's too difficult - huh? You despise me?"

It seems that the time when a person walks alone in the shadow hall for so many years is an illusion like a foam, which is eliminated one by one when he sees the sun. Si Lu laughed, almost uncontrollable: "then tell me, what have you done? What's going on?"

"After so many years of not seeing you, it seems that you still want to be beaten as soon as you come up," thorn said

"Say it quickly," Si Lu shouted at him.

... thorn figure said for a long time.

Si Lu listened intently, sometimes surprised by his experience, and sometimes burst into a burst of laughter; He himself forgot the last time he laughed like this. Sting Tu explained the whole story of his getting into the shark department, explained why he had been unable to contact Si Lu, and how he was sent to see Peng Ping by accident - but who cares about Peng Ping now?

Go to the top of the mountain in a moment and take back Peng Ping and the [disposable copy].

Now thorn figure is back; As long as the two of them work together again, there is nothing difficult ahead?

Thorn figure also told him in addition, what parts are left in the shadow hall, which are temporarily inaccessible to sharks, and who can still be trusted, which is closely related to Si Lu's own speculation.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief after listening to it - fortunately, only a small part of the shadow palace has been eroded, the core mechanism has not changed, and everything is still in time. After this battle, the shadow palace in the future may be more resistant and stronger... His home is still in the old place, and will be in the old place in the future.

"I've been worried these days," Si Lu sighed. "I think things in the world are too ironic. The shadow palace has always existed in the way of secretly controlling other organizations. Now it seems that it is swallowed and replaced by other organizations unconsciously, leaving only a shell? I'm relieved to hear you say so."

Thorn figure also sighed for a while, patting his shoulder.

"By the way, do you still remember Lin San Jiu," Si Lu asked, "do you know how she is?"

Today, their roles seem to be reversed. The person who has been asking questions has become Si Lu, while the person who has all the answers has become CI Tu. Thinking of this, he unconsciously laughed again.

"I know," Ci Tu stared at her two yellow eyes and said, "ah, when I first saw her, I was shocked. I didn't expect that the guy was not dead, and his life was very big! Don't worry, she's fine."

"Oh? Where has she been? Why has there been no news?"

"She met her former friend, the man named Yu Yuan she had been looking for." Thorn figure laughed and said, "maybe she was too happy and forgot for a moment. Wait, there may be news soon."

The two stood up with each other. Si Lu didn't rush to the top of the mountain to see the situation for a while, and took a slow walk with situ. He can hardly remember when it was such a fine day today. The sky was bluer than he had seen at any time in his life, and the wind was lighter than he had felt at any time in his life; The grass and flowers in summer are surprisingly sweet. The sun falls, warm and bright. Walking in this world is like sinking your teeth into a sweet and juicy peach.

"I don't know why," he sighed, "I seem to be so... Comfortable and satisfied for the first time since the end of the day. Now it's only Lin San wine -"

It happened that his communicator rang.

Lin Sanjiu apologized to him and reported the good news to him, saying that he had found a friend and successfully found the documents of the rental business.

"They put someone in the rental business to stop me, but I still got it!" She laughed, "as long as we follow this document, we can find the shark department immediately. If I say, the shark department is no longer a big deal now. Think about it, where are you going to go and what are you going to do after this?"

Si Lu thought he didn't want to do anything, but when she reminded him so, he found that there was too much in his mind. After dealing with the shadow palace, he can find a stable world and build a cabin; He has long wanted such a small wooden house, which is located between the woods and the lake. Every morning, he pushes the window open, and the mountains with snow tips are reflected on the lake.

The bird rowed across the water, and the deer stretched out its limbs and ran away from him; Situ and Lin Sanjiu sat in the backyard barbecue, and there were several friends he had known over the years... Si Lu took a box of new beer, carried it into the backyard, and put it on the table. As expected, situ complained again: "is there no juice?"

"It's strange to say that the doomsday transmission has disappeared for a long time," Lin Sanjiu stretched out his arms and said, "I never thought that there would be such a free and comfortable life one day."

Si Lu sat down among his friends and turned the meat on the barbecue. He recalled years ago, when he and situ met again after years of separation, sighed and laughed, saying, "what did you tell me then? Where have you been? How come I can't remember at all."

"Just like you, I dare to say that my brain is not working well." Thorn figure now has a few white hairs on his forehead. Even evolutionists always grow old.

When Si Lu gets up every morning to wash and look in the mirror, he doesn't even dare to believe that the person in the mirror is himself - but he has nothing to complain about; He may have twists and turns in the first half of his life, but the rest of his life is no better.

However, he really couldn't remember what thorn Tu said to himself.

He seemed to say that he had entered the shark department and could not contact himself... But Si Lu forgot the details.

After all, that was half a lifetime ago.

Can't remember, what's the matter?

It's normal not to remember.

The most important thing is that he found the thorn map and the shadow palace again, and spent the most satisfying time in his life in this small wooden house. Every day in the past, when I think of it now, it is as clear as a fresh blessing. At this point in life, there is nothing more to ask for.

He slowly bent down, took off his slippers, lifted the quilt and lay in bed. Every movement is very difficult because of age, and the joints are dry and sour; It's hard to imagine that he used to be such a good evolutionist... Tomorrow, tomorrow, he will get up early and go to see the snow creek that just melted in early spring in the forest.

Si Lu smiled, closed his eyes and fell into eternal darkness.

I don't know how many days it can be updated smoothly... I'm worried (but the outline is still useful. I can update it this month, right?)
