MTL - Wife is Not Divorced-Chapter 71 (two)
After a long time, I finally picked a double-layered fruit cake filled with peaches and strawberries.
"It's so big, the two of us can't finish it." Although Tang Li said so, she still bought the cake.
"I've never had a birthday," Xiao Chu tugged at the corner of her clothes, her eyes watering, "the doctor said, eating cakes, blowing candles, etc. are all meaningless activities."
Tang Li laughed and said casually, "Birthdays are really meaningless, but they can be used as an excuse to eat cakes."
Xiao Chu nodded solemnly: "I think so too."
The lights in the room were turned off, and two candles were burning quietly, one was "ten" and the other was "eight", the faint light swaying, reflected in those dark eyes.
Tang Li sang the happy birthday song, she beat some beats with her hands, slowly and leisurely, singing in a very nice voice: "Chi Si, I wish you a happy birthday."
The candle melted and a drop of wax dripped down.
Some are like tears.
Xiao Chu put his hands together and closed his eyes to make a wish. In fact, she doesn't believe that the so-called "prayer" can realize her wish, but she simply thinks it is more interesting to do so.
"Have you made a good wish?" Tang Li's voice came with a smile, "The candles are going to be blown next."
Xiao Chu took a deep breath and blew it all out.
After the soft sound of "Hu", both candles were blown out, and the room suddenly plunged into darkness. In this pitch-dark environment, Xiao Chu was suddenly a little scared.
"Sister...Sister? Where are you?"
Xiao Chu was a little flustered, and tentatively stretched out his hand: "Are you still there?"
The hand was held, and it was softly wrapped in the palm of the hand. Tang Li was not very strong, but he held her tightly, very tightly.
The temperature ran along the fingertips, warm, hot, with the breath on her body, which made people feel at ease for no reason.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Tang Li comforted, and then clenched Xiao Chu a little, the voice was calm and calm: "I won't leave you."
The tip of Xiaochu's nose was sour, she dragged Tang Li, preventing him from getting up to turn on the light, groping in the dark, and hugging Tang Li's waist.
"Sister," Xiao Chu was stuffy in her arms, her voice was thin and weak, getting lower and lower, "I'm sorry, we lied to you."
Tang Li stroked her long hair and touched Xiao Chu's head: "It's alright, you don't need to apologize to me, we just need to restart the cycle."
She murmured, as if to Xiao Chu, but also to herself: "Everything will be fine, everything will be fine."
Lies or truth, it doesn't matter anymore. .
Because Xiao Chu said that he was going to see the ruins of Research Institute No. 7, the two set off early in the morning. Tang Li studied the map and planned to insert it diagonally.
However, when approaching the corner of the intersection of No. 5 and No. 7, Xiao Chu, who had been holding his backpack tightly in the back seat, suddenly said, "Sister, drive to the left immediately."
left? Isn't that area 8?
Tang Li was stunned, but her body responded faster than her thoughts. She slammed the steering wheel, and the car dashed across the border, heading straight into the gray-black [No. 8 garbled area].
"Whoo-hooh-!"
At the moment of entering the border, a sharp electric sound suddenly came from the ear, and it rushed into the eardrum chaotically, stabbing the eyebrows.
Tang Li frowned, and the sound of the electric current disappeared quickly. At the same time, the entire screen of the system darkened, displaying the large characters "Connection Interrupted".
"What's going on? Lost connection?"
Tang Li was startled, and when she looked back, she saw Xiao Chu nodded to her and said, "Sister, look at the sky."
In an instant, a towering wall was erected around the entire No. 8 area, separating them from other areas.
And in the square gray "sky", several blood-red numbers were displayed:
[Countdown: 4096 seconds]
The countdown went by every second, and Tang Li realized something in an instant. She stepped on the accelerator abruptly and galloped towards the center of Area 8.
Xiao Chu didn't have to hide and tuck all of Chu Chisi's plans out of his head. Tang Li listened and nodded.
"Okay, I see." Tang Li's voice was steady, "We hurry up, and after modifying the cutting nodes, we will blow up the entire No. 8 area."
She always seems to be.
Always calm and strong, calm and composed.
Area 8 looks huge, but it's actually just an optical illusion given by the "blindfolded thing", and they reached the center within 5 minutes.
Tang Li opened the car door and was a little stunned.
In the gray fog, two completely different buildings stood. More than a dozen sentry towers were built on the wall. The red light penetrated the fog and patrolled the surroundings with a certain pattern.
Xiao Chu hugged her little jellyfish and jumped out of the car.
The strange thing is that Tang Li was silent, letting the long brown-blond hair be scattered by the wind, and looked at the two buildings in a dazed way.
"...Chi Si...I actually..."
Tang Li's voice was so soft, like a murmur, softly scattered in the wind: "Actually, I'm not as strong as you think."
The blond hair was scattered in the noisy wind, chaotic and messy, like the fine sand flowing from the palms of the hands, covering a little of her expression.
Tang Li lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes with her wrist.
The corner of the clothes was suddenly pulled, and Xiao Chuyi came over a little and asked in a low voice, "Sister, what's the matter with you?"
Tang Li's voice was hoarse: "It's okay."
Xiao Chu looked back at the two buildings, and then turned to look at Tang Li. She looked a little puzzled: "Sister, I don't recognize this place, do you know this place?"
"Of course I do."
Tang Li smiled, she squatted down in front of Xiao Chu, took Xiao Chu's hand, and introduced them in turn:
"The circular building on the right is the Beimeng Academy of Sciences; the rectangular building on the left is the Beimeng Armed Forces. This is where the two of us usually work."
"In reality, for various reasons and considerations, the two buildings are actually very far apart, about two or three hours' drive away."
Although Tang Li was still smiling, her eyes were a little red, and they came up indistinctly: "And in the tattoo mirror..."
"Chi Si, you put them together."
