Future driving recorder

Mocha was buried on the mountain, next to the stone with the inscription written by the old lady of the Lu family, the big chrysanthemums and beautiful evening primroses that had been sprinkled at random earlier bloomed bright and lush flowers, and accompanied them lively.

It took Qi He and Lu Jingming a month, and before they could fully get used to the days without cats at home, they faced a new life change——

In the past three months, the company has been losing talents, resulting in a continuous decline in the quality of game activities and even a breakdown. Meanwhile, the promotion of new games next door is overwhelming, and active players are moving crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After several days of long meetings, the exhausted Lu Jingming had a chat with everyone in the company individually, and made a judgment that there was no hope of turning things around based on the statistics of his wishes.

Stubbornness is easy to break, and people's hearts are hard to gather.

Surprisingly, the person who was least willing to accept this result was actually Jiang Heng, who had always been ridiculed as a "ruthless stop loss machine". His opinion was to persist for another two months no matter what.

The operating costs of holographic online games should not be underestimated. Lu Jingming didn't know whether Jiang Heng's words were out of love for this career, or whether he wanted to use this game to leave something behind, but he understood this unwillingness to wait for the countdown to separation .

"Do you understand him now?" Lu Jingming suddenly asked after nodding silently.

"I've always understood him." Jiang Heng said, "I'm just too afraid to see him wither."

Two months later in the spring, another ideal that had been painstakingly managed withered.The last few people emptied their belongings and went to Lu Jingming's house for dinner. Their appetites were so good that they emptied all their food storage and drank all the wine stored in the previous year.

The party lasted until late at night, and at the end Qi He stood at the gate of the courtyard to bid farewell to all his colleagues, helped the drunk Lu Jingming upstairs to take a shower and change clothes, and dried his hair.

Lu Jingming, who was drunk, was very well-behaved and didn't make a fuss the whole time, only after turning off the lights, he suddenly turned sideways and hugged Qi He tightly and refused to let go.

"Can't sleep?" In the darkness, Qi He reached out and patted Lu Jingming's back lightly.

What answered him was the slowly wet touch of the collar.

"I didn't cry..." Lu Jingming said sullenly, "Alphas don't cry."

"Hmm." Qi He rubbed his chin on the top of his head, hugged him back tenderly and said, "Dust got into his eyes."

Just flush it out with tears.

That mysterious person was still in the dream that night, he was still talking to someone, his voice seemed clearer than before, but Qi He no longer tried to get close.

"I can't find you for the time being." He said to himself, "There are people here who need me more."

Having said that, the autumn-like dream has not dissipated at all.

The company's follow-up matters were even more complicated than expected. In the next half a month, Lu Jingming was busy with various procedures and handovers, and he didn't have time to feel the joys and sorrows. Slowly getting better.

"Finally..." On the last day of handling the handover work, Lu Jingming took off his suit jacket as soon as he got home, and fell down on the recliner with a long sigh of relief as if he had narrowly escaped death.

"Thank you." Qi He paused the learning video, got up and poured him a cup of tea, "Don't think about anything from now on, just take a good rest."

"Yeah." Lu Jingming took the cup and drank it down. He relaxed a lot, "Just give me half a month."

Qi He was a little surprised when he heard this: "Half a month? Have you already thought about what to do next?"

This is too fast, besides, Lu Jingming doesn't seem to spend time planning recently.

"No, it's not about work." Seeing that he was so confused, Lu Jingming smiled mysteriously, revealed the answer and said, "I'm planning to go on a trip with you."

"Travel?" Qi He opened his eyes wide in surprise, and blurted out: "Why do you..."

"Because I 'know everything'." Lu Jingming was indeed in good condition, and even played with his own name.

"..." Qi He didn't smile at all.

"Okay." Lu Jingming also put away his smile, sighed and said, "I know you have been looking at that map a lot recently, and you have also checked the future number."

He thought it was very secretive.Qi He understood and felt a little embarrassed.

"Did you remember something?" Lu Jingming asked.

Qi He shook his head, telling the truth about his dream.

"So," Lu Jingming quietly listened, and speculated, "You think he might be the owner of the map, so you want to find clues on the planet marked with your name?"

To be precise, it was a plan for a while... Qi He let out a "hmm" and at the same time quickly glanced at Lu Jingming's expression——

Fortunately, there is no downcast look.

If Lu Jingming strongly expressed that he did not want him to leave, Qi He might not know what to do.

As for bringing him along... It's not without the idea, but considering Lu Jingming's love for his family and his personal development needs, Qi He has already voluntarily dismissed this idea.

After all, this is a long-distance trip that will take at least a year. Even if nothing else is discussed, staying at home must be much more comfortable than traveling along.

...The only disadvantage is that they will be separated, but when the network condition is good, they can meet via video.

"Then next week, we have to ask someone to overhaul the Future." Lu Jingming didn't know what Qi He was thinking, and was planning seriously, "I also need to put some daily necessities in it, and make a bed—by the way, put it on." Will things affect the shape change?"

"No." Seeing that he was already preparing for his trip, Qi He was relieved and felt a little disappointed that he hadn't been retained. He deliberately ignored it and explained to Lu Jingming, "Before shrinking the space, the body will first Automatically process and eject affected items."

"...So, when we found you before, the Future was in the form of a single-person rescue capsule after excluding all other items and only keeping a negligible map?"

"Yes."

Moreover, the Future itself is a spaceship designed for single use. Although the maximum space can reach the normal master bedroom, the life-saving mode can only support a single living body.Qi He added in his heart.

"So when it encounters an emergency situation of insufficient energy or needs to shrink, it will give priority to throwing out the relatively large bed?"

Lu Jingming frowned, and said thoughtfully, "If you don't have a bed, you can only sleep on a chair? It's too miserable! We need to be more careful."

Qi He, who was nodding halfway, was suddenly stunned.

"'We'?" he asked involuntarily. "Are you going with me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it, because Lu Jingming's expression was even more shocked than his.

"What?" Alpha said incredulously, "You didn't plan to take me with you?"

"..." It's not true for Qi He to admit it, and it's not true if he doesn't admit it. He just feels that Lu Jingming looks at him with "scum" written on the one hand and "male" on the other.

No wonder he looked unstressed from beginning to end.Qi He was a little moved after knowing it, and was very happy, but he couldn't stop hesitating.

"However, this may be a very long journey, so long that you could have done many, many things..." In the end, he decided to remind Lu Jingming.

"Whether it's gardening, making friends, or starting a new business, all of them are more meaningful than wandering in the universe." Looking into Lu Jingming's eyes, Qi He said softly, "After all, life is so short."

In his opinion, this was not a wise decision, but Lu Jingming's expression did not change at all.

"Yeah." He even echoed in a relaxed tone, "Life is so short."

——That's why you should spend your time on meaningful things... huh?

Qi He was slightly dazed, but couldn't help laughing after realizing it.

Lu Jingming also smiled.

"Besides, if there is no accident, my mother will persuade me to join them next, which is very troublesome... I want to escape from the current life and let myself settle down for a while." He said, "So you don't have to have any psychological pressure , treat it as a honeymoon trip with no deadline."

Honeymoon... Qi He was almost amused, but Lu Jingming seriously asked him not to laugh.

"This week's rest is for applying for the certificate." He said seriously, "The time is limited, and I can't have a sense of ritual in obtaining the certificate, so I have to use an infinitely extended honeymoon to complete it."

"?" Qi He quickly sorted out the logic in this person's words before he was sure that he was really proposed... Ah, no, he was notified.

At this time, it seemed out of place to reply seriously, so he pondered for a while, and replied: "For the bed, just remove the top bunk, to save money."

Lu Jingming reflexively wanted to say that the money was not bad, but he suddenly came to his senses and discovered the fact that they had become unemployed... So he nodded weakly.

I don’t know how much the infinite honeymoon will cost. Bring all seasons of clothes, unused tea, honey and jam, and save life in the universe.

For a long time to come, objective conditions may not be very comfortable, but as long as two people are together, they will always be rich.

In this way, a week later, the two officially registered as spouses in Blue Star, and the future account was overhauled. The brilliant game was completely shut down. What was left to the players was the last and the first sentence:

May you have a wonderful journey wherever you go.

"Are you ready?" Qi He stood at the door and asked with a smile.

"En." Lu Jingming patted the newly purchased gardening AI butler, then got up, stood in the middle of the yard and scanned around, "... let's go."

In the endless spring night in the mountains and fields, the silver-white Mirai lifted off silently.

Blue Star The deep blue velvet night of early spring, streaked by a reverse shooting star.
