[Yongchun] Heart of Machinery

When he woke up, the world was gray and white.

"Student Xinhai, are you going to the library today?" the boy at the same table asked.

After the get out of class bell rang, he asked Xin Haichun, who was still sitting, with a cheerful smile on his face, and the football next to his feet couldn't wait to shoot it.

Xin Haichun said ah, and nodded obediently: "Yes, I have to return the book today."

The boy let out a hey, and jokingly said: "In Xinhai's case, he reads almost all the time, so he is too fond of studying. His grades are already so good, and he won the first place in the whole grade last time. "

Xin Haichun shook his head quickly, and murmured: "It's not enough."

It is really far from that distant dream.

He picked up his schoolbag and walked towards the library. When he passed the playground, he was stopped by exclamations.The sun was still half-hanging in the sky, the people on the playground were running fast, the black and white football spun extremely fast, and then rushed into the goal.

Xin Haichun couldn't help but watched for a while, and woke up suddenly after seeing other people excitedly running to the side of the shooter and clapping around him in celebration.

No, no, he has to return the book today, and if possible, he will choose another book to borrow home, so that he can return it immediately when he comes back next Monday.

He likes to read books, all kinds of books, he likes them all.It's just that now, reading has become a task in his schedule, and it will be very uncomfortable if he doesn't complete it.

"Looks like we won the city championship last week, our school's football team is so handsome!" 』

When he walked to a corner where no one was around, Gage Beast naturally appeared in front of Xin Haichun. He flipped twice in the air excitedly, and looked back several times.

"It's really good, isn't it, Haru! 』

Xin Haichun nodded seriously: "Yes, it's very powerful."

But he actually didn't know about this, or he didn't care at all. This football team was a completely unfamiliar football team to him, the high school football team.

In the blink of an eye, really in the blink of an eye, he was already a high school student.

The grade written in the textbook no longer starts with "beginning", but instead becomes a character that he can recognize but can't.

In this high school, there are people he knew in the past, but there are no people he can recall with him.

not a single one.

There were not many people in the library. The administrator saw Xin Haichun and waved to him. Xin Haichun smiled and put the books in the schoolbag at the borrowing and returning desk for a quick scan, and then went directly to the second floor.

The foreign language books were hidden in the back of the row, and his fingers swept over their spines one by one. Gage beast had gone somewhere, leaving him here alone to find the books.

My mother said that he was quieter than before. He had more friends, but he became quieter.

After Xin Haichun heard this, he patted his cheek with his hand, and before he thought of answering, his mother had already given the answer in her heart.

For Chun, it must be because he has grown up, has his own troubles, and has his own plans.

Sitting there, Xin Haichun exclaimed in his heart, but he couldn't utter a word.He doesn't feel that he has really grown much, but it is absolutely impossible to say that he is the same as before.

He did meet many people, Huili, Feihu, Ling and Chu, many people, but at the same time, he also lost a lot of things.

There is a place in Xin Haichun's heart that is permanently vacant, and nothing else can be found to fill it. It is the proof of the passage of time and the imprint of the passing of time.

Looking back, never, never to be another person, impossible dreams and miracles.

"Ah, found it."

He stood up, called out in a low voice, and shared with himself the joy of finding a good book.

If Gagemon saw it, he would definitely say let him search for it, and then he would say a bunch of things he didn't know with great interest.

Although that was interesting, it was still a little bit far from what he had imagined.

Xin Haichun walked over to the administrator with the book in his hand, and the other party went through the borrowing procedures for him and said: "Xiaochun really likes to read these books, artificial intelligence, do you plan to conduct research in this area in the future?"

He took the book, but shook his head in denial: "Not necessarily, just interested."

Perhaps he has really grown up, understood the insignificance of himself and the vastness of the world, and can no longer speak frankly.The more he understands, the more afraid he becomes. Can he really, can he do it?

Xin Haichun didn't dare to say that he couldn't do it, but he didn't have the courage to say that he could do it, so he could only evade and keep silent when asked.

He will do it without hesitation, even if nothing can be exchanged in the end, he will do it.

But I can't say it out, and I can't say it out.

The wound that pierced the heart was unconsciously covered with a protective layer, and the fragile one would disappear at the first touch, but it had already "healed" like a deception, leaving a smooth and round epidermis.

Xin Haichun put the book in his schoolbag, and the moment he walked out of the library, Gage Beast appeared. He put his hands behind his head, bluffing, saying that he just walked around outside and saw something novel. thing.

Xin Haichun listened carefully, echoing a few words from time to time. He walked back along the path with Gagemon. No one stopped to say hello to him. The whole road from school to home was noisy and quiet.

"I'm back." He opened the door and walked in. Mom was cooking, and there was a salsa sound in the kitchen.

Mom stretched out her head to look at him: "I'm back, Xiaochun, a guest came to see you today, I asked him to wait in your room."

Xin Haichun asked in confusion: "A friend, who?"

"It seems to be called Ling, classmate Gui Ling, is it your classmate in junior high school?" Mom returned to the kitchen, her voice was frosted.

Xin Haichun faltered a few words, and quickly ran into the room. Sure enough, Mr. Ling sat upright on his desk and chair, and Hackermon stood beside his feet.

"Mr. Ling, good afternoon, what's the matter?" Xin Haichun put his schoolbag on the desk, and the Gage beast circled the hacker beast a few times.

They hadn't seen each other for a long time, almost two years since that adventure, having temporarily left the city for their own lives at the beginning of last year.

Have you come back, but just for this reason, you don't need to go to his house specially, a phone call and a text message to him are probably enough.

"I found a piece of information on the Internet." Zero straight to the point, directly stated his purpose, "The encoding algorithm used in it is very similar to Leviathan."

When the word was uttered, there was a strange tone, and Xin Chengchun was taken aback for a moment before realizing what he said.

Emerald-colored light flashed through his mind, and he got stuck before finishing a sentence smoothly: "I'm sure it's Leviathan, but logically it should have been..."

He couldn't finish that sentence, the word "elimination" was a metaphor in his eyes.

Zero nods, the mobile phone shines through the screen, countless black characters jump over the white page very quickly, and finally the red flame burns again, and the shape of L appears in front of Xin Haichun's eyes.

"He... did he lie to us?" Xin Haichun clenched his hanging hand and then quickly released it. How could it be, why?

Zero replied in Xin Haichun's heartbeat: "I don't know. In fact, I don't know if this is Leviathan. Because there is nothing but this vague data."

Xin Haichun's heart returned to its original place, and jumped again, feeling a little confused and lost.

"Actually, I wanted to discuss it with Grandpa Potential Gate, but I couldn't find him."

Xin Haichun said helplessly: "Not long after he came back, he came up with the idea of ​​traveling. Now I don't know where he is, but postcards will be sent back every month."

Zero didn't have much interest in this, and he stood up after expressing his understanding: "If there are other things, I will come to you again, and there is... Offline Beast, have you seen him?"

Xin Haichun paused: "No, I haven't. I haven't seen him in a while, and he's not always with me."

Except for the few months at the end of the story, the offline beast rarely appeared regularly after that, and most of the time they didn't know where he was, because no one had the ability to make him actually stop.

He always disappeared before everyone noticed, and then came back before causing panic, and the timing was just right.

But this time, after Zero's reminder, Xin Haichun suddenly discovered that the offline beast really hasn't appeared for a long time.

Because he left from time to time, he unconsciously left everyone with the impression that he left but would definitely come back.But no, obviously every time you leave without saying goodbye, it may be a forever farewell.

"I don't know." Xin Haichun woke up like a dream, "I don't know... I really don't know where he went."

Offline Beast is always very silent. Whether it was the first meeting or the later getting along, he didn't want to talk too much. Even if he came out slowly with encouragement, he still kept a silence in the deepest part of his heart.

"It's not your fault, I'm just asking, you don't have to worry too much." Zero added.

Xin Haichun showed a far-fetched smile: "I know, Zero, I will think about how to find the offline beast. Thank you for coming here today."

Zero didn't say any more, the Hackermon lost its entity in a flicker, and flew to Zero's shoulder.

Xin Haichun sent Linghou away without saying a word, and slid on the bed dumbfounded.

"Chun, offline beast..." Gage beast flew in front of Chun, and he hummed irritably.

Where did he go?

Where else could he go but wandering?

"..."

"Go away, you're in the way."
