Useless

Like a soft and comfortable quilt, it instantly soothed Xie Yi's titanium alloy eyes that were about to be stabbed blind.He looked at Shen Ye curiously, but the latter didn't show any intention of answering him.Xie Yi thought and thought, but still felt that he was quite reasonable, so he gave up thinking that the teacher remembered his birthday, and began to concentrate on admiring the scenery outside the cabin.

The release cabin turned a corner after leaving WD017, skimmed lightly above the sky-blue atmosphere, drove for a while, and then plunged into the thick clouds again.Everywhere he could see was occupied by layers of clouds, Xie Yi counted the buttons on the control panel for a while, and was finally overcome by sleepiness, sinking into a dreamland.

While sleeping soundly, Shen Ye suddenly said: "Here we are."

"Are you there? Where are you?" Xie Yi woke up suddenly, looked around in a daze, and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.

The fragments of memory that seem to be buried in the passage of time, reflected by the twinkling stars for years, finally ignited a long flame and filled the sky.The gushing flames meander and circle, depicting indescribably wonderful shapes in the dark blue sky, like feathers floating in the vast galaxy, and like frost condensed on the boundless sky, ethereal and mysterious Yes, hanging high in the distance that is out of reach.

And in the center of this colorful and gorgeous light, a round of bright moon faintly emits a deserted silver light.

A deep and ethereal tune suddenly sounded in Xie Yi's ears, he turned his head in astonishment, and saw Shen Ye put his hands around his lips, as if he was playing some musical instrument.Shen Ye's eyelids drooped slightly, and his thick eyelashes concealed his emotions.Xie Yi could only guess and figure out the state of mind of the performer from the tune—however, the melody lingering in his ears was so sad and lonely that he almost wanted to flee immediately.

After playing the song, Shen Ye spread out his palms, and Xie Yi saw the whole picture of the instrument clearly - it didn't have a very gorgeous appearance, it was just a metal round flat pot with a row of small holes drilled on one end, and the other end A simple tassel made of cotton thread is hung.

"This is a gift for you this year," Shen Ye put the flask into Xie Yi's hands, "Moon sound."

"Moon sound?"

Shen Ye did not answer Xie Yi's question, but instead asked: "Do you know what LY827 stands for?"

Xie Yi didn't speak in a daze, the silver flat pot glowed faintly and coldly in his palm, like an ice wheel in the sky.

"Could it be that you haven't browsed the historical files sealed in the Hall of Birth and Death?" Shen Ye said, shaking his head self-consciously amused, "That's right, they are all irretrievable old things, so you don't need to read them."

"I... have been busy before, um, I'll watch it when I go back this time!"

"No need." Shen Ye cast his eyes into the distance, and the silver moon was reflected in his pupils, bright and lonely, "When the source area was on the verge of destruction, most of the residents there were conservatives. It is completely possible to transform the source area and bring it back to life. Only a very small number of people insist on completely abandoning the source area and going out to find a new place to live, so they are denounced as traitors by the mainstream. The differences between the two factions are getting bigger and bigger. Some people gathered together, took thousands of years to build a spaceship, and left the source." Seeing that Xie Yi opened his mouth as if to say something, Shen Ye waved his hand, "I don't think there was a right or wrong in the debate back then. , after all, at that time no one knew which was the real way out. At that time... there was also a planet called the moon near the source, and after the spacecraft left the source, that planet was their first stop."

"Perhaps...they are still reluctant to part with the source?"

"Perhaps. However, as time passed, the environment of the galaxy became more and more harsh, and the spacecraft was finally forced to leave and began wandering for tens of millions of years. According to records, 827 is the date when the spacecraft left, and LY stands for 'flowing moon' ', the wanderers who started from the moon. Less than a thousand years later, the stars in the source galaxy collapsed, and the entire galaxy was destroyed, and Liu Yue became the last orphan of the source." Shen Ye withdrew his gaze, looked at Xie The sound of the moon in the hand of the clothes, "The sound of the moon is made of the metal collected on the source moon that year, and there are no more than five left on the entire spaceship."

"This, such a precious gift, I—"

"Is it precious? But it's a dead thing after all." Shen Ye held Xie Yi's finger, and held the sound of the moon firmly in their palms, "I just hope it can remind you to remember the burden on your body, so that you can put away the burden you can't bear." necessary kindness and mercy."

Xie Yi subconsciously wanted to refute, but was stopped by the warmth from Shen Ye's palm on the back of his hand. He blinked, and finally said: "We will definitely be able to wait for the day when we succeed! I will come with the teacher again at that time." Watch the moon here!"

By the time?By then... I will no longer be here.

Shen Ye lowered his eyes, and silently tightened the fingers holding Xie Yi.

Le Wuyi lowered his eyes and silently tightened the fingers behind his back.

"No difference, I know it's you." Xia Yize's voice sounded again, "Come out."

"why?"

"What I'm saying is just speculation without enough evidence. I don't want to worry you if I don't tell you."

"You are deceiving." Le Wuyi shook his head, "You have already started to suspect, haven't you?"

"No, I heard that you have the same abnormality as Haishi—"

Le Wuyi smiled sarcastically: "Yize, I have known you for so long, I know you too well. You are lying."

"It was my fault." Xia Yi was startled for a moment, and readily admitted his mistake, "I have my reasons, I hope you can understand."

"Forgiveness?" Le Wuyi took a step back, "Of course I will."

Xia Yi took a few steps in the direction of Le Wuyi: "Wuyi, I know you admire Professor Yue very much, this matter is indeed my fault, you—"

"What kind of person is Professor Yue? I have eyes, so I can see clearly." Le Wuyi glanced at the gauze wrapped around Xia Yize's arm, "You are still hurt, go back to your room and have a good rest."

"No difference!"

"I'm fine, it's just that things suddenly became complicated and I'm in a bad mood...you leave me alone." Le Wuyi said and left the room quickly, Xia Yi hesitated for a moment and chased out the door, but only had time to see The corner of the other party's clothes flashed past the end of the corridor, and when he chased into the living room, Le Wuyi had already disappeared.He turned around in various corridors but couldn't find any trace of Le Wuyi, so he had no choice but to walk into the study where Le Wuyi had stayed before with a mentality of trying.

The study was quiet, and the stool in front of the large workbench was still pushed away.A large volume of thick research notes was spread out on the table, and Xia Yi stepped forward and roughly flipped through a few pages, which recorded some research experience of bionic technology. When he closed the notes and was about to leave, he suddenly heard There seemed to be noises in the study room.

"Wuyi, is that you?" Xia Yi raised his voice and asked.

There was no response, and after waiting for a while, the sound seemed to disappear.After hesitating for a while, he walked over lightly and carefully pushed open the door of the inner room.

The dust blowing against his face made him sneeze again and again. The interior seemed to have been abandoned a long time ago. Materials and tools were piled up in disorder on the ground, all covered with thick dust.A line of footprints was clearly printed on the floor, extending behind the invisible wooden frame. Xia Yi followed the footprints and walked in, but was only disappointed to find that there was no one behind the frame.The door of the locker in the corner was ajar, and the bearings in disrepair made a low babble.

Xia Yi stepped forward to close the door, but was caught by a piece of fabric that fell out of the cabinet.He bent down to pick up the cloth and wanted to stuff it into the cabinet, but he was caught by the object covered under the cloth. Like a ghost, he lifted the flannelette, and he couldn't help taking a breath——

It was a lifelike girl doll, leaning quietly in the corner with her eyes closed, the sun shining on her face from behind the thin curtains, as if she would wake up in the next second.

However, that was impossible, because she was so small and exquisite that she could only be placed in a crystal display case, and she was so weak and thin that it seemed that she would turn into flying smoke when touched.

Xia Yi regained his composure, gently covered the flannel back, closed the cabinet door and retreated from the inner room.

Just as he was about to close the door of the inner room, an astonishing discovery suddenly jumped into his mind - the face of the dusty girl doll was almost exactly the same as the woman in the photo Ye Hai showed them before departure!It's a pity that before he had time to think about it, a delicate female voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Who are you?! Why are you in Brother Xie Yi's study!!"

Xia Yi turned around, subconsciously intending to explain, but opened his eyes wide the moment he spoke——

The puppet turned into a life-size within a few minutes, and was questioning him angrily.

Xia Yi rubbed his eyes and looked again, and found that it was not his own eyes that had made a mistake.Is it the brain?He closed his eyes and shook his head.

Fortunately, Ye Hai who arrived in time stopped his self-test: "Ah Ruan, he is a member of our team, not a bad person."

"Is that so?...I'm really sorry," the girl put away her puffy bun face, stepped forward and stretched out her hand to Xia Yi, "I'm sorry, I was reckless. My name is Ruan, how about you?" ?”

Xia Yi opened his eyes, and the face of the young woman in the reprinted photo, the face of the girl doll in the closet in the inner room, and A Ruan's face overlapped. He couldn't help holding on to the door frame behind him with some dizziness.Seeing this, Ye Hai hurried over to help Xia Yize, and smiled at A Ruan: "He was injured before, he may be a little weak, let's sit outside and talk."

After sitting on the sofa, Xia Yi felt his mind cleared up a bit. Ah Ruan saw his face
