Prince's Disease vs Knight's Fate [Interstellar]

In the evening, the ocean began to high tide, the water line rose silently, and some amphibian creatures appeared on the beach.

The medium-sized crab with an iridescent carapace is actually an alien invasion creature. Because humans cannot accept its taste, it has been able to reproduce safely until now, and it has almost become a disaster.

However, the crab's rainbow carapace is brightly colored, and it looks even more colorful under the last ray of sunset light. From a distance, it has a dizzying beauty...

Lu Zhongxiao sat cross-legged with his back against the coconut tree, planing the sand depressedly, "What do you mean you won't lie, are you just trying to trick me?"

That question is so dodgy!

Trying to explain what you saw, of course, involves many other things.

It's just that when he looked up at Tyre's clearer blue eyes than Haiyang, Lu Zhongxiao felt that the other party knew that he could see through this problem, so he opened his mouth like this...

"However, don't you feel disadvantaged by exchanging the secrets of Star Saga for my family affairs?"

The raised white sand fell on the clothes, Tyre patted some off, and shook his head: "Just... I just want to know you better. The land general cares about you very much. He can lock up all the pirates on the Hope warship, or I rushed directly to the escape cabin and let them fend for themselves. I didn’t do it because of your mood. If you weren’t so angry just now, he probably wouldn’t do it.”

"Come on, do you think that Lu Yizheng is as powerful as you but just for display? Don't look at him, he was a bad boy when he was in school. to light outer armor..."

Hearing Lu Zhongxiao's nagging complaints, Tire was quite surprised.

Does that unsmiling general on earth still have such a "hot blood" past...Because he is not very good at expressing his feelings in words, he has to put his tenderness into his fists full of brotherly love?

"However, he hasn't been like this since a long time ago. No matter what outrageous things he does, he won't do anything. He just looks at me with that disappointed look..." Lu Zhongxiao stopped digging the sand, and carefully The grains of sand flowed into the small pit that had begun to take shape. "When I was 14 years old, May, I had no idea of ​​time, so I couldn't be sure whether it was that day or not."

There are no holidays, nor anyone's birthday.

In the northern hemisphere, the climate warmed up in May, and the sun was hot. The impatient Lu Zhongxiao was already thinking about how to spend the upcoming summer vacation, and by the way, get past the final exams before the summer vacation.

"What kind of officials and generals on the earth are all lucrative occupations, but they seem to be pretty good in the eyes of outsiders? My parents don't see each other often because of work. Before I was 14 years old, I lived with my mother and lived in a certain place. In the dormitory assigned by the scientific research base."

Lu Zhongxiao tossed a shell fragment in the sand, held it in his palm and slowly crushed it into powder, "There was no reason after that, I was picked up by Lu Yizheng, I didn't have any emotional foundation before, so I was not used to it, and there were no contradictions." Not much. He got angry with me a lot, and family law is commonplace, but he stopped doing it from a certain day, and then said that my mother will be very busy doing research in the future, so I can’t contact me often, but I will prepare birthday presents every year good."

At that time, Lu Zhongxiao was still a complete teenager at heart, he didn't think much about it, besides, the older he got, the less dependent he would be on his family.It's just that when receiving birthday presents, he can't even call his mother, which makes him feel that something is wrong...

The presents during the holidays have never been broken, and the stable to somewhat boring life lasted for four years.

"Your mother, is something wrong?" Tyre already had a bad feeling.

In the 3D dynamic photo I saw at the captain's bedside, Lu Zhongxiao was around ten years old when he took the photo with the blonde woman, and the timeline seems to make sense.

When I was young, I lived with my mother, and when I grew up, I was taken care of by my elder brother...

"Something happened a long time ago." Lu Zhongxiao looked into the distance, the light in the sky was weak and not bright, he still felt sore eyes, "I couldn't sleep the night before my adult birthday, so why not just get up and take a walk, you know my stealth ability is very good ..."

Tyre nodded slightly, the captain is simply a natural nocturnal animal.

Lu Zhongxiao took a deep breath, raised the back of his hand to cover his eyes, "Outside the door of eldest brother's room, I heard him and the old man on the phone, asking when they will go together...to visit mother's grave."

The moment the door was kicked open, it meant that the lie that had been maintained for four years collapsed. The young Lu Zhongxiao had never lost control of his combat power and was so angry that he ran away like this!

No one can bear the truth obtained after repeated questioning.

As early as a few years ago when he left the scientific research base, his mother died accidentally due to an explosion caused by an experimental accident. Lu Yizheng made up a perfect lie, no longer had trouble with his younger brother, and was as stable as a qualified elder brother, and encountered more problems. The choice of communication rather than force settlement.

It's just that his communication is really lacking in skills, and he always fails to see any effect.

……

"Hey, Till, why do you think they only keep it from me? Everyone in the family knows it, or because they are benefiting from the death of their mother, so no one has the courage to speak..."

Now that Lu Zhongxiao has grown up, he no longer has endless naive questions waiting to be answered as he did when he was a child, but Tyr cannot face it with a series of cruel questions.

"Because your mother's death...benefited from it?" After a while, Tyre's voice drifted over.

Indeed, if it was just because of the explosion that he died, then Lu Zhongxiao would not have broken with his family to such an extent.

"The unexpected experiment back then was finally successful." Lu Zhongxiao raised the gravel, and before it fell down, he clenched his fist and punched the beach, his emotions suddenly became intense! "More than [-]% of human beings are genetic mutants, and the purpose of that experiment is to create a repair medicine that suppresses side effects... The chief person in charge of that experimental project is my father. Become a member of the Earth External Council."

The potion that saved almost all the people on earth.

Sacrificial mother.

That experiment caused quite a stir back then, and the relevant personnel are now the best in the industry.And the accident of the explosion...has there been any news reports?

When Lu Zhongxiao was young, he liked to play games instead of watching the news.

So he didn't know whether the news that symbolized his mother's death appeared on TV in the end...or did it appear, but was subconsciously ignored by him?

"Don't be sad..." Tyre couldn't think of a more useful way to comfort him, "You are forcibly hating your family... The accident of the experiment cannot be avoided, it is not your father's fault."

Lu Zhongxiao quickly turned around and pulled his collar towards him, staring at Tyre with burning eyes! "Why isn't it his fault! The completion time of that project could not have been so fast, and my mother didn't have to spend her life in the laboratory! It was all because of his pursuit of fame and fortune that something went wrong! A successful experiment Is the result more important than the wife? This is really annoying..."

The flimsy cloth shattered under the terrible force, and several finger holes were scratched.

Tyre sighed, suddenly felt that communicating with children was a helpless thing.

No, because there are no villains in this tragedy, you will feel helpless, right?Even Lu Zhongxiao's father, who forcibly catalyzed the progress of the experiment for some benefit, didn't seem to have any detestable behavior... Humans have obtained the best repairing medicine in the universe, and even Saga star will import a large amount to repair V cells.

The order of things is important.

After all, Lu Zhongxiao's father didn't need power to order his wife to complete the research within a certain period of time.

Compared with being depressed after the death of his wife in an accident, joining the Earth Council and playing a more important role is a better choice in desperation.

"...I left home after knowing the truth. No matter how hard I tried to convince myself that my mother sacrificed for all evolved humans, I still couldn't understand them. If you can’t accept this fact, you can’t accept such a family. You think it’s naive or you want to persuade me from the perspective of benefiting all mankind, so save yourself, you’ve heard too much nonsense.”

Arguing with someone with a good temper is really boring. Lu Zhongxiao let go of Tyre, knowing that no matter how much he vented his anger, the other party would not fight back.

"Who said... all mankind will benefit first?" Tier enlightened him like a gentle brother, "Zhongxiao, you are such a strange person. I usually wish I could look arrogant like the sun rising for you. The thing that was really born for you is so resistant..."

Ignoring the definition of arrogance, Lu Zhongxiao looked at him a little confused.

"I borrowed a lot of information about people on Earth from Erlan. It seems that only parents who are evolutionaries with pseudo-beast genes will give birth to a child like you who has stood at the peak of human combat power since birth." Till recalled the tone There are some uncertainties, "For its own safety, each planet has only a part of the alien information..."

"Of course, my mother's strength is even higher than that of my father, but she is famous for her scientific research, isn't she very powerful?" Lu Zhongxiao explained in this way with a bit of complacency in his bitter expression.

"What an outstanding woman..." Tire admired sincerely, and finally asked, "Isn't everything obvious?"

obvious, what?

"Seventy percent of the people on Earth have the beast-like gene. The combat power of these evolutionaries is not average, and the degree of negative influence they receive is also different. People whose strength is at B- may not suffer from abnormal evolution in their entire lives, but those above B-level, Especially someone like you, who will live with this non-disease symptom all his life...and you, as you get older, it will be affected more deeply, right?"

Till still remembered Lu Zhongxiao's extremely ugly face after he hurriedly left the hive auction when he was in Pirate Star.

This is the side effect of evolution, but stopping evolution means that the race loses its future.

Lu Zhongxiao murmured: "Yes...Even if the lifespan of people on earth is generally extended, the evolved ones don't live as long as ordinary people. Before mother's research was successful, only repairing potions with fairly ordinary effects could be used. I, I have never understood Why did she desperately use the shortest time to achieve the improved formula, I..."

"You don't care how long you live, but your mother can't." In the second half of the sentence, Tyre almost completed it with a cruel attitude.

Yes, it was cruel.In particular, he smashed the last excuse he used as a barrier, and couldn't even say "I can die vigorously, as long as she lives".

Only now did Lu Zhongxiao feel that he had failed the person he cared about the most...

"The experiment of repairing potions is indeed very important, but before your mother comes up with a perfect finished product, it's not like you can't find low-efficiency substitutes." Till decided to carry out this cruelty to the end, "The land will be the first step in entering the space. He was not born as a peak evolutionary. Not all evolutionaries, not even him, but you are in urgent need of medicine to relieve symptoms."

The blood in Lu Zhongxiao's body was blown cold by the wind...

Tyre reached out and pressed his head on his shoulder, "It is said in the information that people on Earth have to cry to relieve their mood. Don't worry, I won't read it."

"...If I knew it earlier, I would have asked Erlan to give you less messy information." Lu Zhongxiao said bitterly that he would not cry, but he did not take his head off his shoulder.

His forehead was pressed against his solid body, motionless.

Until Tyr spoke again: "From your description, your parents live in two places, Lu Lu will live with your father, and you have lived in the scientific research base with your mother since you were young?"

"Um……"

Although he was responsible for the progress of the restoration potion experiment, the old man was a politician in the final analysis and could not always stay at the base. At that time, Lu Yizheng also began to prepare for entering the Space Force.

"Then, she has always brought you by her side to take better care of you. If anything goes wrong, it's more convenient to be in a scientific research base than an ordinary residence." Some things are always confused by the authorities. well.

Tyr bent his insightful blue eyes, "She really loves you."

Haiyuan is vast, and after staying in such a place for a long time, my mood becomes clear.

Lu Zhongxiao let out a sigh of relief, but then thought of something, emotionally boiling: "—but why, when I went to ask them, no one explained it to me like this? They even acquiesced that I 'let my mother die 'The opinion! How many years, whether Lu Yizheng or him..."

"You are really a person who values ​​feelings..." The hairy head on the shoulders shook slightly, like some animal, Tier couldn't help reaching out and touching it, "Your father can't forgive himself either... so he would rather choose to be The villain in this matter is disgusted by you, otherwise, how much self-blame should you have to confess the truth? It’s better to leave everything to time, you will understand the truth if you see it through, and you won’t feel too guilty if you don’t see it through. "

Straightforward and impulsive, if you understand that your mother will complete the dangerous experiment recklessly for yourself, even if you hurt yourself, you will stop it?

It took Lu Zhongxiao a long time to digest all this.

I really want to say that I don't want others to pay for him at all.It's tempting to say that he's strong enough to figure things out on his own.

But now that all evolutionaries have the repairing potion, they no longer have to worry about their lives. Even an ignorant complaint is a stain on the mother's life and hard work...

"What they hid from me was not just the news of my mother's death, but also the cause of death."

The cool voice echoed on the beach, Lu Zhongxiao hugged Tire tightly as if seeking comfort, and trembled all over his body, "Lu Yizheng knows the whole truth. In the scientific research base, he and the old man were both present. I...I am here In his memory, he saw the last side of his mother. Didn’t she die in an explosion, did you know Tyr! Because the final stage of the human experiment requires volunteers with high combat power, and in order to understand the effect of the medicine more intuitively, the mother simply used I did the experiment myself... I saw it, the immature medicine made her genes collapse, she, she..."

Suddenly looking up at Tyre, Lu Zhongxiao wished he could pass the picture in his mind directly: "I saw it, she died like a monster in the end."

The dying mother was lying in the sterile ward. Silver scales grew on the exposed parts of her body, her bones mutated rapidly, and her joints had protruding bone spurs.The short pale golden hair and the light to almost transparent blue eyes are still beautiful, but they can't hide the fierce light that is becoming more and more like a beast...

Until the last moment of his life, he was still dictating his feelings to the assistant, and would suggest with a smile, "It's already like this anyway, why don't you help me experiment with other medicines."

Lu Yizheng was isolated outside the ward by the transparent glass. He wiped away his tears as if he couldn't accept it. When he turned his head, he saw his father's dejected back...

That's it.

"How immature am I that they don't want me to help share the pain?" Lu Zhongxiao hated this feeling, "Really, what kind of tragic hero are you pretending to be!"

Tyr rarely agrees with him, "Indeed, concealment is not the best choice. If it were me, I would communicate. Alright...Since you also hate their behavior, why don't we go back and...seriously communicate?"
