In front of him, he continued: "Things are impermanent, I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll never see you again, just like my elder brother did back then."

Xun Yu was aware of his worries, so he couldn't answer rashly.

"I've persisted for so many years, so I'm not in a hurry. The person in the hospital is my dad, and I can't leave him alone." Taking a deep breath, Cao Pi raised his head to suppress his emotional fluctuations, "Whether Whether the result of the operation is good or bad, I have to be by his side.”

"Xiao Pi," Xun Yu took the air ticket he handed back, and his peaceful smile was more gratified, "You have grown up."

Cao Pi was a little embarrassed, so he pretended to laugh, "I also have selfish intentions."

Winter is over, the temperature is getting warmer little by little, and spring is approaching a little bit.

Sima Yi was packing his luggage for returning home, but he received a call from the assistant of the research institute, saying that someone from the institute wanted to talk to him about cooperation and authorization of the research results into the field of applied technology.

Remembering that he just planned to go back to the institute to pick up a document, Sima Yi agreed without much hesitation.

Half an hour later, he had parked his car at the entrance of the institute, and followed his assistant to the conference hall where the guests were waiting.

The door of the conference hall was opened, and the inside was filled with warm sunlight, beams of which passed through the shutters, so vivid.

In front of the window, the man in black formal attire turned around upon hearing the sound, and the smile that had not changed on the youthful face faded away, with a sincere and lovely arrogance.

"Long time no see, Teacher Sima."

The wind blows into the house, accompanied by today's warm sun, soothes the sorrow, injury, and unhappiness of years.

In just the right spring.

Finally you are here.

——You should have been sentenced to death, but I have the ability to keep you alive, or even exempt from punishment.

——Unfortunately, I am not a greedy person.

——I'm afraid, it's not up to you.

——After all, you are the one who is superior.

On the last island, the sky is clear.

It is far away from war, protected by heavy military, and always peaceful and peaceful.It is rumored that it is the paradise of country C, and only those who have made extraordinary contributions to the country on the battlefield are eligible to live there after retiring.

last island.

These two words are temptation, glory, and the ultimate yearning of all young soldiers.

"Heaven, huh... Another group of fools who thought they were in heaven."

On the hospital bed, the pale man turned his head to look at the group of people jumping past the window, his eyes no longer had the earlier pity, replaced by the usual numbness.

Another not-too-tall black-haired man stood by the hospital bed and looked down at him, his brows were tightly frowned, and his lips were almost drawn into a line.

After a while, the pale man withdrew his gaze, turned his face straight, closed his eyes, and slowly lay back on the hospital bed, solemn and solemn.

"Please, Cao Pi," he said.

no respond.

"Please." He repeated.

There was another silence, and the black-haired man called Cao Pi looked up at the ceiling, as if he was making a final difficult decision.

"No regrets?"

"No regrets, just wish for it."

"Then go to sleep." Cao Pi turned and walked out.

"it is good."

Pulling the doorknob to stop at the door of the ward, Cao Pi finally glanced at the person on the hospital bed bathed in the sunset, his lips moved, but no sound came out.

Then he closed the door and left.

Walking through the long corridor to the outside of the clinic building, the unique atmosphere of dusk blows over my face.Cao Pi sat down on the bench in front of the building, looking at the patients who were taken to the lawn by the medical staff to relax or recover, with a calm expression like a sculpture.

Every day here seems to be like this, plain, slow, and boring, like a bottomless long river, engulfing people in it and letting them sink.

Putting his arms on the back of the chair casually, Cao Pi looked up at the sky where seabirds occasionally passed by, with some unknown emotions in his eyes, which surged and sank.

Guo Jia rushed to the direction of the research institute according to the stipulated time, with his hands in the pockets of his white coat, humming a little tune, looking like a fool.Suddenly, he stopped and took a few steps back, "Cao Pi?"

Responding vaguely, Cao Pi remained motionless while looking up at the sky.

"Why are you still sitting here? The evening experiment time is about to begin."

"Experiment." With a snort, Cao Pi lowered his head and gave way to the edge of the bench, "Can I ask you a few questions?"

Tilting his head and hesitated briefly, Guo Jia sat down on the bench next to him, "Ask."

"Why did you come to the last island?"

"Curiosity." Guo Jia thought for a while, and said, "Studying supernatural beings is such a rare opportunity, no one should be able to resist it." As soon as the words fell, Guo Jia realized that his words were wrong, " Uh, sorry, I forgot about you..."

Smiling without saying a word, Cao Pi lowered his eyes, speechless for a long time.

The afterglow of the setting sun faded away, and the sea breeze gradually picked up, blowing from all sides.

"Just because we are so talented, do we have to be treated like this?"

"what?"

"We go through life and death for the country on the battlefield, at the expense of ourselves, and use our abilities to the limit. If we want to make meritorious service, we can go to the island to be awarded honors after retiring and enjoy the honor we deserve. However," Cao Pifang The hands on the knees tightened suddenly, and the knuckles turned white. "It wasn't until we set foot on this land that we realized that there were no flowers, applause, or medals. What we got was a new number, and we were treated as experimental subjects." The prisoner life. The ridiculous thing is that people outside are still envious of our abilities, and even jealous of our outstanding military exploits and qualifications to go to the island."

Guo Jia kicked the gravel around his feet dishonestly. It seemed that he was not affected by this heavy topic, "You value honor, do you know what we value?"

Cao Pi glanced at him and tentatively answered, "Research results?"

Without affirmation or denial, Guo Jia said to himself: "My mentor, Professor Xun, one of the main persons in charge of the supernatural person research project, told me a word when he conveyed to me the secret transfer order from his superiors. He explain……"

"Team Leader Guo!" A medical staff hurried over interrupted the conversation between the two, "Team Leader Guo, a recovering supernatural user died abnormally in the ward, number CX1025."

"Xia Houshang?!" Standing up from the bench with a calm face, Guo Jia subconsciously glanced at Cao Pi, but only saw him with his head lowered.With a light cough to cover up his gaffe, Guo Jia raised his eyes and said to the medical staff, "Is there any preliminary judgment on the cause of death?"

"Organ failure, but," the medical staff frowned, "You should go and see for yourself. We have also sent someone to inform Professor Xun."

"Alright." Guo Jia said as he was about to lift his foot to leave, but was grabbed by the force from his wrist, "Cao Pi?"

"You haven't told me yet," Cao Pi still lowered his head, making his expression unclear, "What did he say?"

After being dazed for a while, Guo Jia came to his senses, "He said—" Looking down at the top of his head, Guo Jia inadvertently saw a few glaring white strands in the black hair, and a strange feeling flashed through his heart. But only for a moment.Soon, Guo Jia returned to his usual careless appearance. He leaned into Cao Pi's ear and finished speaking softly, then got up and patted him on the shoulder and left.

"Not all achievements can be made public." Cao Pi sighed softly, "He probably wanted to tell me that the people on this island have to sacrifice something, and there is no need to blame others, after all, Looking up at the interrogator opposite, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It's all a fate we choose."

The sound of the pen rubbing against the paper followed his words. The interrogator put the cap on the pen, closed the notebook with a snap, and said nothing.After a while, he got up, walked around the interrogation table, walked behind Cao Pi and started pacing.In the quiet and small interrogation room, the sound of the heels of military boots slamming repeatedly sounded, causing unreasonable depression.

Fortunately, Cao Pi did not feel any discomfort, he just sat quietly in the interrogation chair, waiting for the next round of questions from the interrogator.After touching it for about a minute, he suddenly felt something cold against his temple, and at the same time, the interrogator's voice came from above his head without any emotion, "Actually, I'm not interested in Team Leader Guo or What is that sentence that Professor Xun said." The pen in his hand began to slide down from Cao Pi's temple, from the side of the cheek to the jawbone, and then to the fragile neck and throat, and then exerted force on the chin. Pushing his head, forcing him to raise his head to meet his own face, the interrogator's usual rigid face seemed to reveal a smile with no clear meaning, "I want to know what Xia Houshang asked you to do. Why did you leave after you left?" He died not long after? What else did you do in the ward? Tell the truth."

Looking straight into his eyes, Cao Pi said word by word: "I, what, what, also, did not, did."

The interrogator's narrow eyes reflected a sharp cold light, obviously very dissatisfied with Cao Pi's answer.

The excessive head-raising movement made Cao Pi feel a little breathless, "Sir, if you don't let go, I'm afraid you will be charged with torture to death."

"Are you so fragile?" With a sneer, the interrogator removed the pen and walked behind the interrogation table, "You should be lucky, I have never been very interested in torture."

"But it's not impossible." Cao Pi's words were more provocative as he moved his neck that had regained his freedom.

The corner of his eyes twitched, and the interrogator threw out a sentence without knowing whether it was true or not, "It's good that you know." Sitting back in the chair, he opened the notebook again, "Don't try to change the subject, come on, let's get back to business, you
