Protagonist, wake up

The heavy eyelids gradually opened, and he heard the sound of beeps in the mist, and then someone approached him and shouted: "Team leader, the experimental subject woke up early."

Then a familiar cold voice came to his ears: "Jian Zhu, are you okay?"

He closed his eyes again and rested for a while, until he felt that the top of the nutrition warehouse was opened, he opened his eyes again, and what he saw was still the wall made of gray and white metal.

His limbs were stiff and uncoordinated due to too long a deep sleep, he tried to turn his head, but tripped over the various circuits on his head.

Two young researchers carefully lifted him up and helped him remove the testing equipment on his body.

The indifferent and handsome young man in a white coat knelt down, saw him clutching his head in a state of unconsciousness, and said softly, "Do you know? You woke up 30 seconds earlier than the scheduled wake-up time."

With a dry mouth and tongue, he asked hoarsely, "How long have I been asleep?"

"Three days."

The young man helped him up and handed him to another researcher who came forward, "Yunzhou, take him to wash up first, and then rest for a while, I need to finish the work."

"Okay." Wang Yunzhou pushed down his glasses, and helped Jian Zhu walk to the special lounge.Because of the long experiment, he was sweating a lot now.

Before leaving, Jian Zhu turned her head and looked at the busy young team leader, "Xie Lang, the experiment...does this count as a success?"

"Yes." The young man nodded, "Thanks for your hard work."

When walking towards the lounge, Jian Zhu asked in a low voice: "Don't you need to ask me for relevant information?"

Wang Yunzhou answered while opening the door: "You are too tired, we will record the specific information after you have rested." The lounge has everything, after all, many researchers in the institute live in the institute as their home.He handed the prepared clothes to Jian Zhu, "Is it okay to take a shower?"

Along the way, Jian Zhu had regained some strength, so he nodded.

"Well, I have to help the team leader transcribe the data. If you have something to do, just ring the bell, and other colleagues who are free will come to help." Wang Yunzhou looked at the table and added, "Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, the team leader will bring You check again, you..." He lowered his voice, "Although it's virtual, I think you need to adjust it."

Hearing this, Jian Zhu raised her eyes to look at him, and those eyes became darker and deeper.After Wang Yunzhou left, he stood there for a while and then went in to wash up.

He went into the bathroom with his hair unbuttoned, let the warm water soak his hair, and then hit his skin.In the steaming mist, Jian Zhu looked at an expressionless face reflected in the mirror.When he blinks, the person in the mirror blinks; when he tilts his head, the person in the mirror tilts his head accordingly.

It was exactly the same, exactly, and it was exactly himself in the mirror.

The bathroom with hot water turned on suddenly became empty, and Jian Zhu felt the sudden silence, only himself and the sound of water flow remained in the space.He was obviously wrapped in hot water, but he felt bitingly cold.

He hugged his knees and squatted down slowly.Gradually, the tears flowed away together with the hot water.

After a long time, there was a roar of a beast on the verge of death from the bathroom.

When Jian Zhu came out again, he found that only himself and the steaming food were left in the room.

The meals were very light, probably because of his stomach that hadn't really eaten for three days.But after he took a few mouthfuls, there was a churn in his stomach, forcing him to give up the idea of ​​filling his stomach.

At night, he made an internal call to the office and made a request to them. As expected, the call was quickly transferred to Xie Lang.

"I want to go home." Jian Zhu just said.

Since meeting Jian Zhu, Xie Lang has never listened to his request to go home, it seems really uncomfortable.He was silent for a long while, and rarely used a coaxing tone, "Zhuzi, can you bear with it a little longer? After the two-day experiment is completely over, I will ask Yunzhou to send you back in person."

Jian Zhu clenched the phone tightly, and took a step back for a moment, "Then can I make a call?"

"You can do whatever you want. I'll ask them to give you the phone later."

After Jian Zhu got the phone, he was stunned.It wasn't until the research institute turned on the street lights that he pressed the number keys slowly and hesitantly as if he woke up suddenly.As if he was not sure about the number, he pressed back and forth several times before making up his mind to call.

During the short time waiting for the other party to pick it up, he unconsciously grasped and loosened the sofa cushion with five fingers.After going back and forth twice, the call finally got through.

"Hello, who is it?" A somewhat old female voice sounded.

Jian Zhu opened his mouth, feeling as if his throat was blocked by cotton, "It's me..."

The woman froze for a moment.After confirming that she heard correctly, she became excited and asked cautiously, "Is it... Yaoer?"

"……Um."

"Yaoer, Yaoer...is that really you?" The woman was so excited that she couldn't speak coherently, she repeated "Yaoer" over and over again. "You still remember the number... You are still willing to call... I, I..." Her voice gradually choked up, "I thought I would never have the chance to hear your voice again."

Jian Zhu listened to the woman rambling for a long time, and waited until the other party finally calmed down before slowly opening his mouth: "How are you doing?"

"Okay, okay." The woman said quickly, "I found a temporary job with them this year. The boss is nice and the salary is decent."

"Really? Have all the family debts been paid off?" When he asked this sentence, he felt a little sad that he hadn't seen for a long time, probably out of anger.

Sure enough, the woman hesitated for a long time when she heard this sentence.Jian Zhu didn't rush her, but waited patiently for her to speak.

After a while, the woman still sighed, "The old debts are all paid off..."

In other words, they owed new debts again, Jian Zhu knew it.Hearing the woman sigh, he couldn't help but said: "You just let him?"

"Otherwise, what can we do?" The woman choked up more and more, with a hint of resentment and helplessness, "He has also restrained himself a little over the years, and he knows to take money from his family after learning the lesson. These days... just survived ..."

Jian Zhu remained silent.Hearing these words now, he was more indifferent than he imagined.He once remitted a large amount of money to her, and that money was Xie Lang's forced fee for his experiment, because this experiment was extremely risky.If a woman can be tougher, she can live a good life now on that money alone.

"Let's not talk about that." The woman sniffed her nose and forced a smile, "Yao'er, what have you been through these years..." She still dared not say any more, as if her mouth would be dripping with blood.

"It's nothing, it's just a little bit worse than you." Jian Zhu smiled.

"Then your illness?"

"A friend found a doctor for me, and I'm almost fine."

The two fell into an embarrassing situation with nothing to say again.Jian Zhu really has nothing to say, it's been almost seven years since he left the woman, and he hasn't had much contact with her during the seven years, and now it's just a whim of his to indulge himself.

The woman seemed very cramped during the whole process, and finally she couldn't bear it any longer and whispered: "Yaoer, are you tired? If you are tired, why don't you go to bed earlier?"

She heard shallow breathing from the opposite side.For a long time, there was a sentence that fell lightly on her heart, and the moment it touched the ground, it weighed as much as a thousand catties, and it cracked the twitching heart severely with a snap.

"Good night, Mom."

The woman burst into sobs.

After making the phone call, Jian Zhu seemed to have finally opened the vent valve, and slowly slumped on the sofa.He curled up into a ball and fell asleep without knowing it.

When people are tired and injured, the first thing they think of is going home, and the person they want to see the most is their mother.This desire for home and family stemming from the blood is natural and hard to resist.Even though Jian Zhu is much more indifferent than ordinary people in this matter because of this family, the obsession engraved in his soul makes him occasionally want to throw himself into his mother's arms for a moment.

But the consciousness pulled him and told him clearly: You have no home for a long time.
