At 2:20 p.m., a strong wind blew up, and Fu Zhong walked into the examination hall with his bag on his shoulders, feeling the chill of autumn and the fragrance of frozen maple wood.The invigilating instructor hadn't come yet, and the hall was already crowded with people.Fu Zhong went to find his seat and sat down. Chen Wei was sitting one meter away from him. After watching him sit down, he leaned over and asked, "Fu Gou, I haven't seen you all afternoon. What are you doing?" went?"

Fu Zhong lowered his head and opened the storage board under the table, stuffed the backpack in, and replied lightly: "I'm going to eat, what do you miss about me?"

"Why do you look so depressed?" Chen Wei smiled with his eyebrows bent, and reached out to pat Fu Zhong's arm, "It scared me. At noon, the eighth and the eldest asked me where you were going, but I couldn't answer .What happened?"

"It's nothing." Fu Zhong said. He supported his elbows, bowed his neck, and kept stroking the back of his head with his right hand. "I invited someone to dinner, but he refused me. I'm just a little sad."

Lin Cheng walked up the stairs with his bag in his hand. He put on a large jacket over his black uniform to protect against the wind, and the hood hung heavily behind him.He stopped in front of Fu Zhong, stared at him for a long time before speaking: "You must be trapped by love."

Fu Zhong was stunned for a moment by what he said, Lin Cheng's intelligent and alert eyes were inlaid on his delicate face, which made his facial features look paler.Lin Cheng stared and pretended to be serious, and after a while he laughed loudly: "Just kidding, man."

As he spoke, he touched Fu Zhong's fists and walked back.Fu Zhong smiled unnaturally, the things hidden in his heart were like the hook of the moon hooking all his thoughts.He shook his thumb for a while, then turned his head and asked Chen Wei in a low voice, "Did Lin Liu graduate from psychology?"

"Criminal psychology." Chen Wei glanced at Lin Cheng who was talking to Sister Qi behind him, "A brilliant student. What's wrong? Could it be that he hit the right button?"

The invigilator hung a sign and filed in from the door, but Fu Zhong ignored them and continued to sit back depressed: "It's nothing, just ask."

Seeing that he was not in good condition, Chen Wei glanced at the invigilator in front of him, lowered his body and squinted his elbows and winked at Fu Zhong: "Who made you so depressed? Isn't it just a lunch? There will be more in the future." There are so many days, just find a good time to make up for it.”

"It's a very important person. I've always wanted to eat with him, but I can't sit together." Fu Zhong lay on the table and stared at the lines on his palm. Gradually became clear in my mind, and then gradually moved away, "I was very depressed."

His voice was soft, and he floated in the clouds like the moon, and suddenly disappeared.Chen Wei didn't hear what he said afterward, and the sound of the test start absorbed all his attention.After the exam papers were distributed to everyone's desktop monitors, Fu Zhong sat up straight, quickly brushed aside those distracting thoughts, and got up to do what he was supposed to do.After finishing the test papers, he sat in his seat for a while, thinking about the mysterious "backtracking plan", thinking about Ji Yao who slept next to him last night.

Ji Yao went back to the apartment and ate half of the basket of strawberries, kept half in the refrigerator, and sat in front of the computer to process documents.At four o'clock in the afternoon, he got dressed and left home. The meeting hall in Area B was already waiting for him.When Ji Yao walked into the meeting room, the first thing that caught his eyes was Constantine's unique blue-brown hair, followed by a long conference table and high-back chairs. Sitting in such a place seemed to be presiding over a court.

"Mr. Ji, it's a pleasure to meet you." Constantine came first to shake hands with Ji Yao enthusiastically, and invited him to a seat while talking.Konstantin was a young man, tall and tall, with a soft and elegant short beard, and his Slavic features were recognizable at a glance.

Li Chongyan is at the top, and Ji Yao sits on his right, which is the most respected position besides the main seat.After the lights went out, the conference room fell into darkness, Ji Yao hurriedly closed his eyes, he was a little uncomfortable with the darkness, the darkness easily led him into a scary place.Immediately after the blue light on the four walls pulled him back from the fear, Ji Yao exhaled softly, resting his hands on the bridge of his nose to calmly adjust his emotions.

The blue light illuminates Ji Yao's eyes, and there are projections on all four walls. He folds his hands and squints his eyes to carefully identify the model pictures released from the projection pool.Myopia made him unable to see clearly, so he had to transfer the projection to the computer in front of him.

"This is the MH-RT-500 coordinate instrument." Constantine stretched out a pointer and pointed it on the projection, "The maximum traversal distance can reach 50 billion years, and it adopts the planar particle compression technology. Ten thousand square kilometers. It is equipped with a forced freezing system to ensure that the human body still maintains vital signs during the ultra-long time travel. The weapon system, navigation system, power system, and balance system have marked their respective divisions, and the central power transmission system is located here. "

Ji Yao didn't wear a translator. Although he couldn't see the screen clearly, he could understand Russian.Ji Yao minored in Russian in college and went to Moscow to study.Ji Yao's autumn has disappeared for several years, the heat and humidity burned his time thoroughly, and at this time the autumn in Beijing made him calm down, and only then did he realize that he had already returned home.

"Mr. Constantine, there are multiple passages in the cavity, how do you ensure that the coordinate device can enter the correct passage?"

"The ground scanning system cooperates with the upper atmosphere scanning system to conduct positioning analysis on the channel. The scanning accuracy can reach 0.0001 seconds. Even if there are abnormal fluctuations, we can change the direction in time."

"Where is the scheduled track crossing? What is the scheduled time?"

"The scheduled time is eight hours." Constantine switched the projection and simulated the trajectory of the coordinate system. "It's a long journey."

Everyone communicated in low voices from time to time, and the upper-level leaders of the executive department all attended the meeting.Ji Yao was recording while writing something in his notebook.Constantine spoke quickly, but Ji Yaoguang couldn't keep up with his writing speed, and he gave up after writing.He felt very dissatisfied looking at the messy and irritable handwriting on the notebook, wrinkled his nose and closed it.

"Mr. Ji, you don't look good, what are you worried about?" After the meeting, Constantine handed over the instruction manual of the coordinate instrument to Ji Yao.

Ji Yao held the book between his hands, put one hand in his pocket, and turned the pen with the other.After considering the words for a while, I said, "I'm just worried about the problem of crossing. After all, it's the first time we've done such a thing, so we need to be cautious."

Constantine's eyes looked at Ji Yao from behind the lens, he was a mysterious man, no matter his appearance or temperament.Constantine smiled, gestured to Ji Yao to go out: "Sir, do you think this is our first step?"

"Is there anyone else who is ahead of us?" Ji Yao asked back.

"If this thing succeeds, we will become pioneers." Constantine did not answer Ji Yao's question, but Ji Yao could understand what he said, "By that time, we will definitely be responsible for our work. Feel satisfied."

These words have an inspiring power, Ji Yao remembered it in his heart, as if it was as heavy as Mount Tai.The two chatted a few words outside the door, Ji Yao didn't want to talk too much, so he said goodbye to Constantine and walked down the stairs.He didn't take the elevator, and there were too many people in the elevator, which made him short of breath.Ji Yao likes to walk alone, but he is not a lone ranger. The "lone ranger" belongs to another person.He walked out of the headquarters building, and the cool wind rushed towards him, and Ji Yao shook off the windbreaker on his hand to cover his body.

After the phone was turned on, there was a ding ding dong ding, the interface was empty, and Fu Zhong didn't send him a message.Shanhua sent him a few text messages, asking him if he wanted to attend the ceremony in the auditorium in District B, Ji Yao frowned in confusion, and immediately refused.

Fu Zhong's dialogue box stopped there silently, Ji Yao stared at it blankly, thinking about it, trying to find a reason to chat with him.Ji Yao suddenly wanted to talk to Fu Zhong, feeling for no reason, just wanted to do it all of a sudden, people often have this strange desire.He checked the time, it was almost six o'clock, Fu Zhong might be having dinner.All of a sudden, the roar of the plane came from the sky at an altitude of [-] meters, and the electric lights of the spider webs criss-crossed, illuminating the towering clouds like shining jellyfish.

"Fu Gou, it was Ji Yao who called the name at noon today. You were not there at that time, and I told him." Chen Wei put Fu Zhong's shoulders, "I think the commander's complexion is not very good, you should go and talk to him." Let him make a report."

"The chief's name?" Fu Zhong quickly pulled up the slipped backpack, "Then where should I report it?"

"Just talk to our team leader and let him tell Ji Yao. If you don't dare to see Ji Yao, it should be fine to ask the captain to take the lead."

"Who said I dare not go to see him?" Fu Zhong asked standing under the tree.

Chen Wei showed embarrassment, shrunk his chin, looked at Fu Zhong, and spread his hands: "He is a great officer, we have to go to our dreams if we want to see him. Go away, Fu Gou, and report quickly. Wait for you."

Fu Zhong raised his toe and kicked Chen Wei: "You are not allowed to see him in your dreams."

"What's wrong with you?" Chen Wei was kicked by him inexplicably, frowned and kicked back lightly, "Why should I go to see him in my dream?"

This question stumped Fu Zhong, he chose to keep silent, and walked out of the shadow of the big tree with his bag on his shoulders without looking away: "It's nothing, you just can't do it anyway."

Chen Wei followed Fu Zhong, smiled, and flipped his palms like a magic trick: "Then you can do it?"

The answer was that Fu Zhong walked away without saying a word.With a few steps, Fu Zhong threw Chen Wei far away, and he heard him greet from behind, "Come to the restaurant to find us later, I have a seat for you!".Fu Zhong raised his arm and waved it, agreeing.Chen Wei's voice drifted away, and he didn't catch up, so Fu Zhong felt a little safer.He walked to the captain's office against the howling autumn wind, his reddened ears were burning hot, Fu Zhong covered his face to let the wind cool them down.

In the patio garden between several buildings, Fu Zhong took out his mobile phone to send a message to Ji Yao.

— Chief.

- something?

—I wasn’t there when you called at noon, so I’m here to tell you now, please don’t punish my teammates.

—Let’s talk about this matter again, if you have something to do in the future, don’t ask people to ask for leave verbally.

Fu Zhong looked at the pop-up message and smiled, and walked through the layers of branches and leaves to another building. He walked on the colorful cobblestone path, and the flower bed was covered with fine white sand.Ji Yao is leaning against the window at the moment, biting a cigarette and typing.There was no one in the office, and a desk lamp was turned on, and the lingering smoke curled up in the dim light.He was a little bit depressed when he was happy, because he was depressed because he didn't take the initiative to send the news out before him.

The captain's office is in the middle of the corridor, sandwiched between the two subgroups of the Internal Investigation Section, it can be said that this is the most dangerous place.Fu Zhong found the house number, stood at the door and typed a line: I reported to the squadron leader, goodbye, sir.

A message popped up on Ji Yao's phone, he just glanced at it and stood up abruptly, when the door of the office was already opened.Fu Zhong walked in from the door, his leather shoes hitting the wooden floor, making a rattling sound.Before Ji Yao had time to calm down, he saw him walking up to her.

The cigarette gave off a strong scent of Persian cloves, and Ji Yao's thin cigarettes were as intriguing as he was.Seeing the smoke floating like a carp, Fu Zhong couldn't help showing joy: "Why are you here?"

"Can't I stay here?" Ji Yao held the end of the cigarette in his mouth, and then moved it away with two fingers.

Fu Zhong was fascinated by him, and glanced around with a calm expression: "I'm here to ask the squadron leader for a sign-in form."

The office is empty, there is no one else except Ji Yao.I don't know why he is here, but at least he is standing in front of him now, so Fu Zhong doesn't think about those causes and effects anymore, it's best to have him here no matter what.

The window pane was slammed by the wind, and Ji Yao wandered over there unhurriedly, looking at the flowers outside the window: "Don't be squadron leader, squadron leader, I'm here now, you can call me alone gone."

"Hello, sir." Fu Zhong slowed down his tone, and it was no longer as clear-cut as shouting.

Ji Yao felt a little relieved by his yelling, exhaled a puff of smoke triumphantly, stretched out his fingers to hook the folder over and handed it to Fu Zhong, motioning him to read it for himself.Fu Zhong opened it, and saw a tick behind his number, with "All Attendance" written underneath.

"Did you see it? All the staff attended." Ji Yao approached him, stretched out his finger and pointed at the four words, "So do you think I will punish your teammates? You are too cautious."

Fu Zhong put the folder away: "If I don't come to make a report, how can I meet you?"

Ji Yao smiled and said nothing, sat on the window sill to smoke, squinted to see the scene outside, and pulled the curtains behind her head.

"Chief."

"Ok?"

"Would you like to come and bring us in person?" Fu Zhong asked, "Just like before."

Ji Yao turned her head to look at him in surprise, surprised at why Fu Zhong made such a request: "What's going on in your head? What do you think you have to ask me to do this or that? Have you forgotten the rules? ? I am your officer, what is your identity!"

"I haven't forgotten, sir! I haven't forgotten." Fu Zhong's eyelids twitched, his heart was trembling, "I'm sorry, sir, I'm thinking about the time you took us to train in the past. "

"0578! Can you concentrate on listening?! The me I used to be is not the me I am now. Besides, you don't need me a long time ago, you have grown up a lot!" Ji Yao walked up to him quickly, "Look at you now, You're strong, and you can't be better off with your whole body."

Ji Yao stretched out his fingers, and the ash from the cigarette butt fell into the folds of his clothes.Fu Zhong looked ahead and listened to Ji Yao's lectures word for word.The shadows of the two people were cast on the window, facing each other, standing very close, as if they were about to kiss, but in fact they were still far away.The Persian lilac spontaneously floated towards Fu Zhong, making him full of fragrance, as if it was going to attract all the butterflies that Liang Zhu turned into.

"The higher-ups appointed me to be the commander of the 'backtracking plan', and I will go to Russia's Lake Baikal base in a few days to prepare for various matters before the launch." Ji Yao said suddenly, his voice was flat, as if melting into the air, with The lights also dimmed.

Fu Zhong said: "The minister thinks I am a good candidate, and he will definitely agree to my going."

"Is that why you want to go?" Ji Yao turned his eyes to look at Fu Zhong, raised his hand to bring the cigarette to his mouth.

"Didn't you ask me to join the mission team?" Fu Zhong looked at him sincerely, his eyes shining brightly, "But I really want to go myself, so why not make up for the four-in-one deal? Why?"

Ji Yao laughed softly, and threw a book to Fu Zhong: "The higher-ups will agree with you to go, and they have to agree for my sake. This is the instruction manual. Learn by yourself. If you don't understand, read my notebook. .Don't come to ask me, I'm usually very busy."

Fu Zhong was holding a book, it was in Russian, he couldn't understand it.He flipped through Ji Yao's notebook again, the handwriting was scribbled like homework done the night before the winter vacation, like a raging lion.But he didn't say anything, as long as the scribbled words were written by Ji Yao, he could regard them as a flower.

"Chief, I don't remember your handwriting being so scribbled."

"Andre speaks too fast, and I can't keep up with my hands."

"Andre?" Fu Zhong can always grasp the fleeting point.

Ji Yao also stared at him with Chen Wei's inexplicable gaze: "The person in charge of the Lake Baikal base. What's your problem?"

"It's nothing, just ask. Don't you have a computer? Why did you write notes?"

"Oh, I almost forgot, I also recorded the sound." Ji Yao took out a small memory from his pocket and put it in Fu Zhong's palm.The memory was scorched by his body temperature, Fu Zhong held onto it, and the warmth made his whole body vibrate.

Fu Zhong said: "Sir, do you think your hand speed is not good?"

"Hmm." Ji Yao glared at him, "You want to laugh at me? No way!"

"Do you want me to teach you how to improve your hand speed? Teach by example and practice."

"Sure enough, he is a wonderful person. After one afternoon, your mouth went astray. It seems that I have to teach you how to deal with your boss often. You have to learn." Ji Yao stuffed the notebook and the book into the talisman In Zhong's backpack, he took two shots.

Ji Yao put out the cigarette butt, walked out of the office with his hands crossed, and Fu Zhong followed him, walked through the corridor and left the floor.Ji Yao was humming a song softly, and the distant hum seemed to return to a place with lush forests.The chilly night hit them, Ji Yao shivered, covered the lapel of the windbreaker, pulled up the belt and tied it.Fu Zhong fell behind him, and when he saw Ji Yao fasten his belt, the waist wrapped under the camel-colored windbreaker immediately jumped into his eyes.

"Is there any night training tonight?" Ji Yao put his hands in his pockets.

"A notice was issued just now, and the night training was cancelled, because there was a ceremony in Area B, and everyone went there to watch the excitement." Fu Zhong said, he felt a little hungry, and his stomach was burning.

Ji Yao nodded: "When are you going home?"

"Go home after dinner, it's only 10 minutes by car, it won't be too late."

At this time, Ji Yao suddenly said: "Move back and live."

Fu Zhong was a little stunned, Ji Yao's words made him feel like a treasure.Ji Yao stopped, looked at the tall buildings and giant advertising screens in the distance, turned around and looked into Fu Zhong's eyes: "I really hope you can live in the apartment at the headquarters, maybe you don't like the house here. But We have a joint project, don't we? It's easy to communicate."

"I used to live in a flat with Chen Gou...Chen Wei, and then I moved out, and my new teammate lived in again."

"How long have you been out?"

"Three years and two months."

Ji Yao calculated the year and found that it was a special time.Ji Yao was silent, and Fu Zhong didn't speak either.In the empty field, the dark wind swirled between the two of them, making people bored.Fu Zhong's gaze was always on Ji Yao, looking at his broad shoulders, well-coordinated limbs, and profound facial features.Ji Yao's belt was not tied very well, Fu Zhong pointed tentatively and said, "Chief, do you want me to teach you a new way to tie your belt?"

"What's the tie?" Ji Yao asked, looking down at the knot at the waist, fiddling with his hands, "I can't tie it."

"I'll teach you." Fu Zhong reached out to grab the two ends of the belt, unfastened the knot, and then showed Ji Yao another way to fasten it.He explained the method to Ji Yao while he was doing it, and finally he adjusted the tightness of the knot. Fu Zhong's only thought at this time was - beautiful.

His heart was as bright as a mirror, and he tied the knot so beautifully, as if it could tie Ji Yao down.

Ji Yao has learned a new skill, and now he is not worried that he won't be able to wear a belt in a trench coat in the future.He was happy in his heart, but the expression he put on was different: "How can you untie someone else's belt casually?! But look at your dexterity, let's forget it this time."

"Do you want to learn anything else? I know many ways to tie knots." Fu Zhong threw out an attractive offer, just waiting for Ji Yao to take the bait.

But Ji Yao thought shrewdly for a few seconds, then shook his head: "Stay until later and take your time, what's the point of learning and leaving the teacher at once. You must not forget what you promised, soldier, tell me the code of ethics for the executive What's the third one!"

"Keep your promise!" Fu Zhong shouted out habitually.

"Why did you move out? Is the apartment in poor condition?" Ji Yao only asked about the business now.

Because you are not here, Fu Zhong thought, you are far away.

But Fu Zhong didn't dare to say that, he was a little embarrassed about this question, and he thought for a while before answering: "Chen Wei is too noisy, playing songs very loudly, and that kind of movie, so noisy that I couldn't sleep, so I moved out. "

Chen Wei sneezed violently and began to complain that the weather was getting colder and colder.

"It's such a far-fetched reason." Ji Yao didn't believe it at all, and it was a ghost to believe him.

Fu Zhong just wanted to refute, but stopped again.That's fine, don't let everything come out.He stood up straight, clenched his fingers, pursed his lips and said nothing.Ji Yao stared at him for a long time, then turned her head and walked away.Ji Yao sighed softly, but Fu Zhong didn't hear it.

Ji Yao didn't eat with Fu Zhong, so Fu Zhong had to go to Chen Wei.Chen Wei and a few brothers were chatting, Fu Zhong came over and sat in the empty seat without making a sound, and lifted the mutton in the pot with chopsticks.

"Fu Gou, why did you come back so unrequited? God, Ji Yao didn't punish us all, did he? Didn't your sweet mouth coax him?"

"Shut up, Chen Wei! You didn't punish us, everything is fine, move your stupid ass away!"

As soon as Chen Wei heard this, he happily turned his head and continued talking about his love affairs. Today happened to be talking about his last girlfriend.Fu Zhong ignored Chen Wei's storytelling, as Chen Wei had a lot of good stories in his stomach.Fu Zhong dipped the mutton into the sauce, but never put it into his mouth.An unknown air blocked his throat, making him just want to run a few laps on the playground, so as to throw away all his worries!

A message popped up on the phone.

— Fu Zhong, come down to my apartment building and give you something.Act fast, don't wait.

"Where are you going, Fugou? You want to play disappearing again, don't you? I won't let you run away this time. Come back and listen to me finish telling this story!"

"Go away, Chen Gou, the officer told me to come over. I'm busy looking for happiness for you guys! Let's go!"

"Use this excuse again? I don't think you're looking for happiness for us, you're looking for happiness for yourself, right?"

Fu Zhong grabbed Chen Wei's shoulders, raised his knees and slammed down on his crotch.Chen Wei howled on the spot, causing everyone in the aisle to look sideways.Fu Zhong broke free from this clingy guy, and rushed to the apartment building with his satchel, the wind whistling in his ears.At this moment, he doesn't think about anything, he just wants to run, towards Ji Yao, he doesn't care about anything.
