Chapter 55 The Gap Between Time and Space

Chapter 55

When Vera was 20, she had a low point.The conflict between her ideals and her responsibilities as Miss Haydham caused her so much pain that she wanted to leave the family desperately, and finally left alone on a traveling spaceship.

Vera didn't have a specific destination, she just wanted to take a long trip to dispel her depression, but the spaceship she was on had an accident. In the chaos, all the passengers entered the escape pod and left the spaceship.

The spaceship exploded, and the escape pods were scattered around the wreckage of the spaceship. As long as you wait, a rescue team will come soon.

But Vera had an idea, and she did it according to her own idea-she secretly left that star field, and drove the escape pod towards an unfamiliar direction.

Vera knew that she couldn't escape very far, because the spaceship company has a positioning function for each escape pod installed in the spaceship.She just wanted to stay away as much as possible, and didn't want to be brought back so soon, so she fled as fast as she could.

That's how she met Austin Bello, the pirate she had heard about.

Falling in love with a pirate is a crazy thing, but the freedom and wantonness of the other party is exactly what Vera desires most.From the first moment Vera saw Austin, she knew that the man would lead her into an abyss of love that she had never seen before.The pirates did not do good things, or even made a living by evil things, but that was nothing to Vera. She was madly infatuated with Austin, and Austin also intentionally wanted to take her away.

In this way, her family should never be able to find her—this is the result Vera wanted most, the development she yearned for the most, and her goal of escaping from that family no matter what!

She should nod without hesitation!

However, when she saw the video released by her father on the Internet, she suddenly realized that the shackles on her body had not been broken.

She always thought that what bound her was the manor, the huge and empty house, the strict guards outside the house, and the parents and tutors who had always treated her severely.However, at that moment, she suddenly realized that the shackles that really bound her were in her heart, and they were produced by herself.

She wanted to give up her identity as "Villa Haydem", but she couldn't. This was the reason for her pain.

Her father is full of vicissitudes, willing to exchange her safe return at any price.Her mother was crying on the sidelines.

Vera knew she had to go back.

Austin loves her and respects her decision for that reason.

However, not long after returning, Vera found out that she was pregnant.She didn't intend to kill the child, but she also knew that staying in that manor would not give birth to the child, so she found her husband.She made it very clear to the man that she would tell the parents it was his child and she would give birth to it.

After the birth, she will send the child away, and tell the parents that the child will die at birth.

That child was the only remaining tie she had to freedom, one she didn't want to part with, so she gave it to Austin.

For more than 20 years, she did have a connection with Austin.

There is no love between her and her husband, but more responsibility. She has bound herself here, but she feels more and more empty day by day.Empty, but unable to break free.

Austin started looking for space-time elements 20 years ago.Vera was very surprised when she heard about this kind of thing, because the existence of this kind of thing broke all common sense.She somewhat understood why Austin was so obsessed with that thing.If she was younger, she might have hoped that he would find that thing, but escaped to a time and space where no one knew about them.But at that time, she already understood that this was impossible.

Therefore, even ten years ago, Austin contacted her and said that she had successfully found the space-time element. Apart from being surprised, she was not overly delighted.She couldn't share that with him, with their children.

Also ten years ago, it is said that the "Uudura" pirate ship was destroyed, and the whereabouts of the pirates on it were also unknown.

She searched for Austin's whereabouts in secret, and finally met Austin five years later.

At that time, Austin gave her something.

The man told her that the space-time element in his hands was too dangerous, and if the alliance and other star countries knew about it, the whole world would become his enemy, so he had to escape to a place.

What kind of place is that?

A place of infinite possibility, and a place where there is no hope.

He handed her another "key" to that place, but didn't ask her to leave with him, because he knew she couldn't go there.

That key was just a bond between him and her.

As long as she doesn't hand over the "key", no one can find Austin.So Austin actually put his life in her hands.

"So... where is the key?" Arnold asked slowly.

With some tears in her eyes, Vera looked up at him and asked, "Hein, why do you want the space-time element? I used to think that thing represented freedom, but in fact it was it that your father Chained up. I don't want you to be in the same situation as your father."

Arnold was silent.

"I know you and I have never met in more than 20 years. Even if I am your biological mother, you have no affection for me," Vera lowered her eyes, "but I do love you, and Austin loves you. He once It is true that I said that I would give you the element of time and space as a coming-of-age gift, but now that I think about it, even he doesn’t want you—”

"Why is he waiting there if he doesn't want me to get that thing?" Arnold interrupted her.

Vera was taken aback and looked up at him.

"He can completely destroy the space-time element, but he would rather take the space-time element and hide in a place where no one can find it than destroy that thing. Doesn't it just mean that he is waiting for the day when he can deliver that thing to the In another person's hands?"

Many memories raced through Arnold's mind.That was the scene where Hein got along with Austin.

He closed his eyes, sighed softly, and said, "Or, do you think Austin would rather live like this than destroy a rare treasure, such a blind person?"

"No..." Vera frowned.

"He will hand over the 'key' to you, so that you can give the 'key' to others one day," Arnold paused, and said softly, "He may be looking forward to his son returning to him alive. by my side."

It's a pity that Hein is indeed dead.

Austin found the space-time element and created a miracle, but his son failed to do the same.

Arnold tightened his hands slightly.

When Hein was 15 years old, Austin pressed his shoulders hard and told him excitedly that when he became an adult, he would hand over the miracle to him.

This scene clearly seems to be yesterday.

Arnold knew that he was not Hein, but he was inevitably shaken by his memory.

Hein has parents, his mother is right in front of his eyes, and his father is also waiting for him.But Arnold knew that this looked like a place to return to, but it was not his real home.

He was born in a glass vessel, and he was destined to find a home for himself if he wanted it.

That's not where "Hine" belongs, it's where "Arnold" belongs.And he has made a choice.

He chose the earthling who came from a foreign land, was a little naive, a little simple, but shared a secret with him.

Thinking of this, Arnold breathed a sigh of relief.

"I want the space-time element, and I also want to see him," he said, looking directly at Vera, "give me the 'key'."

Vera hesitated for a moment, then said: "I understand. But are you sure? The place where he is is not anywhere in this world."

Arnold was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

Vera took down a necklace that hung around her neck.

The pendant of the necklace is a dark blue crystal, but there is a switch behind the crystal.

Vera handed the necklace to Arnold and said, "That place..."

After a while.

Vera sat alone in the bedroom.

The curtains fluttered, and the night outside the window was thick.

Holding the necklace tightly in his hand, Arnold jumped out of the balcony and ran towards the nearby woods, but soon found someone chasing after him.

Has it been discovered yet?

He frowned.

It was pitch black in the woods, and the moonlight was broken into fine pieces of light by the dense branches and leaves.

The whimpers of insects and beasts were everywhere, and in the darkness, pairs of eyes were watching him.

How many people are behind?

Five people?ten people?

Footsteps came from all directions, approaching him!

Suddenly, a tiny sound pierced the air and reached his ears!

Arnold dodged, and immediately there was the sound of bullets hitting trees in front of him!

Immediately afterwards, the same airflow came from everywhere behind him!

Arnold jumped onto the branch, jumped and ran at a high place, relying on feeling to avoid the bullets from behind!

The bullets were like a torrential rain, densely packed without leaving any gaps!

Arnold turned over on the tree, dodged a burst of fire, but immediately felt a breath approaching from the right.

With the movement of turning over, the moment his feet touched the branch, he used the point under his feet as a support, quickly turned around and kicked the person, and kicked him backwards!

After a short groan, the man fell to the ground without moving.

However, this touch also slowed down Arnold's action by half a beat, and in just a moment, his front was blocked.

From ten people slowly added to about 30 people, he was surrounded tightly.

He stopped on the tree, tensed his whole body, and narrowed his eyes.

Before coming here, although I thought that this operation would not be so smooth, I didn't expect that the alliance would send an organization like a secret investigation team. I am afraid that it must obtain the space-time element.

If he was taken back today, the things in his hand would fall into their hands.And now he has nowhere to run.

In the silence, the atmosphere is on the verge of breaking out.

Arnold closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Originally, he wanted to think carefully before using this "key", but it seems that he urgently needs to find a place to hide...

He recalled what Vera had said to him just now in his mind.

"The place where Austin is, is the 'halfway' of time travel... It's the gap between time and space..."

With a slight movement of his fingers, he pushed the switch behind the cold pendant in his hand!

Lu Xiao was sitting on the bed in the room, stretching his body with cross-legged concentration.

Suddenly, the rabbit's voice rang in his mind: "Lu Xiao, time and space are distorted!"
