To my frozen hometown

Chapter 106 On the water side

In front of the dilapidated stone house, the voice was silent for a moment.It wasn't until the boy standing on the left snatched the newspaper from the girl's hand, held it in front of him and reviewed it carefully, then pushed the other boy beside him with his hand and said aloud.

"York, guess what I saw?"

"I saw it just now. You don't need to guess this one, you idiot Joel." The boy named York replied helplessly. Then, he also moved to his twin brother and snatched the newspaper. .

"Get out of the way, I can't see it, what is said in the back, where is this planetary belt, how far is it from our planet?"

"I'm reading, I'm reading." Joel said, and handed half of the newspaper to York, so that the two could hold the newspaper together.

The girl standing in front of them smiled when she saw the boys paying attention.

"Hey, I said, why don't we go to your base and take a look."

"I think this is a good idea." The boy standing on the left thought for a moment, nodded and said.

"I haven't seen our big guy for six hours and all I want to do now is touch his metal shell and tell him the great news."

"Damn, can you stop being so disgusting, but we really need to speed up the progress now, come on, maybe we can catch a few snow worms for breakfast on the way."

"Uh, can we stop eating that? I brought jerky." Seeing the boy on the right turn and leave, the girl who heard the words snow worm seemed to recall some bad memories , said with an ugly face.

"The protein in that thing is three times that of ordinary meat." York, who was walking away, said without looking back.

As for Joel, he quietly approached the girl and asked in a low voice.

"Can I have a piece of jerky?"

"Joel!" York's stern call came from not far away, and Joel was so frightened that he hurriedly followed.

It's strange to say that even though he is an older brother, he always unconsciously listens to his younger brother's words.

But there shouldn't be anything wrong with that, I'm just taking care of York according to my father's request.

Running on the road, Joel thought so, holding the newspaper in his hand, looking at the back of York not far away, and then looking back at the girl who was chasing him, he just felt that the sun is quite warm today, and the sun is extraordinarily tanned Comfortable.

After replenishing a round of new supplies, Liuyuan left the No. [-] Central Greenhouse with Al.

There were not many rare ores left by De Rosso, which made Liuyuan start to think about accepting the commission again.Otherwise, in another greenhouse, she might not even be able to afford Al's daily oxygen.

Of course Liu Yuan himself didn't need to inhale oxygen, he only took a breath or two occasionally when he was pretending.

Al knew about this, and wasn't even surprised by it.Because although the oxygen on the ice sheet is thin, there are always some people who can adapt to it. (Just like some people have severe altitude sickness, but some people don't feel much.)

This kind of thing still depends on everyone's physical fitness.

Because he no longer had a professional employer badge, Liu Yuan didn't go to a professional entrusting agency to pick up the task, just thinking about whether he could find any job on the way.

Therefore, this journey full of uncertainties continued in such a plan full of uncertainties.

When night approached, Liuyuan would stop to rest, and recently she had developed the habit of listening to the radio, and the name of the old man named Azttod would always appear on the radio.

It must be admitted that the broadcast signal of the central ice field is very good, unlike the western ice field, which always sounds stuttering.

Liu Yuan would listen to the information on the radio while writing his own notes.And every time she heard news from Azttod, she would stop writing and listen quietly.

Al didn't understand how the old man who lived alone in the observatory suddenly became so famous, he only knew that he should be doing something very meaningful.

But Liu Yuan expressed his views on this.

"No, he's just doing something meaningless."

Al obviously didn't understand this very well, she just listened to the slightly excited voice on the radio and thought blankly.

Is it pointless to give people hope?

This immature girl seems to have begun to think about the most difficult question of this era.

Will she have an answer, after all she has experienced.

For this, perhaps only time will tell.

That night, the moonlight was bright and clear, but when it shone on the snow, it seemed a little too pale for no reason.

After listening to the broadcast, Liu Yuan leaned back in the driver's seat, holding a pen silently, and wrote such a passage in his notebook.

"If the false hope is shattered, what will it bring, my dear hometown, are you also just my fantasy?"

"Crack." Slowly lighting a cigarette for herself, Liu Yuan realized that she had already smoked that pack of cigarettes.

Putting the cigarette case back into his pocket casually, Liu Yuan lazily put his feet on the steering wheel, humming softly while smoking a cigarette.

It's still the song on the side of the water. This is her parents' favorite song. When she was a child, she often played it at home. After listening to it, she remembered it.So much so that until now, I would hum inadvertently.

If the time can be forever frozen in the afternoon of that year, if, I can always be by your side forever.

I miss you, Dad, Mom...

I'm homesick, I really miss...

But can I still find my way back?

I still remember that there are two old trees at the intersection, will you still stand there and wait for me?

Has Dad changed his bicycle? How is Mom?

To my frozen hometown, are you just my fantasy?
