If content related to energy science and technology is included, this library located in the ice city of Antarctica may be the most precious and greatest palace of knowledge in the world.
It is such a sacred place that countless people yearn for. Liu Shiheng and Alice have used it as a date place where their ambiguous relationship ends for a year.
They come here often during this year.
Every time, Alice would walk barefoot through the rows of bookshelves, find books she was willing to read again, and then sit down and read quietly.
As for Young Master Shiheng, except for a few pictorials of secular beauties that he found with great difficulty, he has never seriously read any books. Compared with science and culture, he is more interested in looking for Alice in this huge and quiet "city". Silk.
Without making a sound or calling her, I just searched row after row of bookshelves slowly, repeating it again and again, from missing, missing, missing... to the ordinary joy of finally finding it.
Most of the time, even if he found it, Liu Shiheng would not disturb Alice while she was reading. He would just find a place to sit quietly not far from her.
Then, those who read books read books, and those who read people looked at people.
This was not the way the young master was used to getting along, but he unexpectedly did a good job.
Perhaps because of a special feeling, Liu Shiheng often felt that Alice in the library was a little different from when she was outside.
As for the specific difference, he never figured it out.
In fact, Master Shiheng's feeling was right all along, because according to the earlier agreement between the "three people", when Alice was reading in the library, she could not be disturbed at all.
Nicola broke their agreement today...
It was driven away and did not dare to come again. Of course, Ne would not appear. They generally knew that in this situation, if they dared to break in again...
It is very possible that Miss Alice was really angry and took them to die together because of the girl's "anger".
"Probably, I was going to die soon...Thank you, my short and sad life became a little better because I finally met you."
Master Shiheng was still hesitating. Alice looked at him and thought in her heart.
She was indeed about to face life and death. When Han Qingyu and his party came here soon, whether Nicola succeeded or they won, the probability of Alice's death was infinitely close to 100%.
As for Master Shiheng...
"Perhaps, you will die too by then! Your situation... I'm sorry that I may no longer be able to protect you. We are all the same, our lives are fragile."
As Alice thought about this, she suddenly felt a little distressed. She didn't know whether it was because of her own involuntary fate, or because of the always optimistic, blind and ignorant Master Shiheng in front of her.
She raised her other hand, and her beautiful fingertips gently slid across Liu Shiheng's cheek, "Master Shiheng must be a very popular man in his original world, right?"
Alice continued to think without making a sound, her fingertips slowly slid back, and her palms passed the lines of her cheeks and jaw...and stuck to her skin, then came to the back of her neck.
"I remember that Young Master Shiheng always brags and says he is so powerful, right?" She smiled jokingly and mischievously, and at the same time, she slowly used her hands to pull Young Master Shiheng towards her...
The special light in the Ice City makes this huge library look like it is built entirely in boundless clear water, with the sparkling sunlight reflected in it.
There is almost no dust here.
Two fragile lives hugged each other tightly in this lonely "city" of despair.
"...Don't use source energy! Alice."
"You're not wearing a device? I can't stand it even if you're not wearing a device."
"Don't be nervous, it will break..."
"What are you looking at?! I mean my waist!"
…………
Fell into a trap.
Master Shiheng limped, limped, and limped on his way back to his residence.
"This is the first time! If she gets excited in the future and lets go..."
Liu Shiheng never expected that this would be his first time with Alice, because she usually looked so charming, charming and good at dealing with it.
Is the beauty young? His combat power is stronger than mine, at least a hundred times.
Alice is very strong, this is what she told Liu Shiheng just now.
As for how strong he was, she didn't say, and Master Shiheng couldn't tell.
"Judging from the strength with which she almost broke my waist by accident, she must be top-notch... Well, none of this is important. The important thing is that I am so unyielding that I even threw myself over my shoulder..." In the end, I fell into the trap.
Although Alice never mentioned Master Shiheng betraying his friend until they parted; even if she did, Liu Shiheng would not do that...
However, at the moment when he turned around and left the library, Master Shiheng still realized that he had actually fallen into the trap.
The consequence of falling into the trap was that for the first time in his life, this romantic young man found himself unable to restrain himself and prepared to take responsibility for a woman.
Considering the current situation of the world, the situation of Ice City, and the upcoming changes here, his own pitiful strength... Liu Shiheng felt that the only thing he could take responsibility for in the end was, perhaps, his life.
"Sure enough, you can talk nonsense, but you can't sleep in bed! I was so bold that I slept with Ne's female secretary! Really, my death was not unfair at all."
At this point, Master Shiheng felt that he was awesome enough and was willing to risk his life. He still didn't know what an awesome thing he had done today!
After passing through the maze-like glass space, when Liu Shiheng returned to his residence, Ye Jian was sitting on the sofa drinking in boredom.
"Fuck you uncle Ye Jian for stealing my wine again!"
The underground city has been out of wine for a long time, and even Liu Shiheng doesn't have much stock here.
"Haha, give it back to you."
Ye Jian quickly smiled and threw the wine bottle over.
Liu Shiheng came in and reached out to take it, and drank a few gulps. When the wine bottle was empty, he also sat down on the sofa... After being silent for about ten seconds, he called out kindly and affectionately: "Brother Ye."
"Is something wrong?" Ye Jian turned around and asked.
The two of them were already too familiar with each other. When the word Brother Ye appeared again, Ye Jian knew that Liu Shiheng must have something to ask of him again.
Because he was doing so well here, Master Shiheng hadn't called him like this for a long time.
"Alice just said that Aoko and the others will be here soon, and Ne also said the same."
"Yes, it's coming soon." Although news from the outside world has been closed for a year, the basis for judgment does not come from the outside world. Ye Jian looked up and said, "Because the thing above is almost ready. Cerulean must come. They will surely come too.”
Ye Jian said that the thing on the glacier seemed to be the remains of a Dajian signal launch site, a very large one. After the Zenith War, all the remaining Dajian troops from the 27th city came here and huddled in defense. They began to Build a super traction field on the basis of the ruins.
The towing field is rapidly taking shape and moving toward completion.
"So, time is really running out. Qingzi and the others probably never imagined that when they were desperately chopping off the big tip, there would be Xuelian and Ne waiting for them." Liu Shiheng said worriedly.
"Don't worry about others first, talk about your own business." Ye Jian looked at him and said.
"Yeah. I slept with Ne's female secretary... I mean, Alice." After Liu Shiheng finished speaking, he glanced at Ye Jian, just one glance, and then quickly turned back.
"..." Ye Jian was stunned on the spot.
In fact, Ye Jian didn't know Alice very well, but one thing was clear to him. Alice's real status in Snow Lotus was very high, because she had always been closest to Ne, and Ne almost completely trusted her.
"So, do you know?! He wants to kill you?!" After Ye Jian asked, he stepped back arrogantly, "Then I can't help."
"That's not the case yet." Liu Shiheng thought for a moment and said, "Brother Ye, do you remember what we agreed before? If anything happens in the underground city, I want you to help rescue Alice when you leave. She is actually not happy at Ne's place, and she hasn't had a good look at the outside world..."
"Shouldn't I save you first?!" Ye Jian remembered that the option at that time was that Master Shiheng should give priority to himself, and then see if he could take Alice with him.
"Of course it's best to save them all if you can." Liu Shiheng paused and said, "But if, I mean, if I can only save one, Brother Ye, please help me take Alice away."
"how about you?"
"I..." Liu Shiheng wanted to say that I was going to die. With my strength, I would definitely die very quickly. Thinking about it, he still couldn't bear it, so he changed his mind and said, "I will find a way to escape on my own. You know, I have always been very lucky."
When they rush in, I will immediately find a way to find Qingzi. This is the only chance. It depends on whether I can run in front of him... Liu Shiheng thought in his heart.
Ye Jian: "Okay."
Liu Shiheng: "...Yeah."
"But I can't guarantee it. I will have my own things to do by then. It doesn't seem like it will be too late."
"Huh?!" Liu Shiheng looked surprised, "What are you going to do? By the way, will you help Qingzi and the others to kill them together? After all, you are an undercover agent."
"I'm going to fuck you, uncle!" Ye Jian gritted his teeth and cursed, "Don't put me, Qi Lan, and Xixi Fengrui together, those people who are looking for death..."
Goods seeking death? Liu Shiheng recalled attentively and said: "I remembered it. I remember Brother Ye said that you thought Weilan's resistance would never win."
"Yeah, how's it going?"
"Do you still think so after the Zenith War?"
"I still think so."
"Humanity has won!"
"It's just a vanguard victory, it's useless! Do you know what else is behind Dajian?" Ye Jian paused for a moment, then rarely said seriously: "You know? The only way for humans to win is to create a special situation, I stand with Ne. So, no matter what position I take, it’s the same, I don’t want to kill Ne at all, I will even try to protect him.”
"What if he suddenly wants to kill you?"
"Then I won't try to kill him."
"...Okay. But, standing with Ne? Is it possible?"
"Not likely. To be honest, almost impossible."
"Then you still think so?"
"I can't not think about it. If I think about it, there is still hope, but if I don't think about it, it will be a dead end."
"Are you stunned? Brother Ye. You have to do something that is obviously impossible. For this reason, you are willing to betray Wei Lan and take refuge in Xuelian... After talking about it for so many years, don't you feel lonely? Don't you occasionally doubt that maybe Are you wrong? After all, who else in this world would think the same as you? "
"Yes, Chen is not hungry."
"Chen...ah?!"
"If the old man didn't think so, Ne would have died thirty years ago."
