I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 399 my best expectation
[Night and Stars (Achievement Description):
In panic, they saw countless bright lights rising in the darkness.

They kissed the earth.

They call it 'divine revelation']

After getting the answer he wanted, Su Wen didn't bother anyone too much and walked out of the room silently.

And after Su Wen left.

Viscount Kevins sighed.

Just now when I was talking about eternal night and the stars.

He suddenly realized that his memories of his grandfather had long been blurred.

after all.

That was forty-seven years ago.

I still remember my grandfather once said that he was also a descendant of drifters.

But for Kevins.

All that had long been destroyed was the sum total of his life experience.

The old viscount held his head with both hands.

In the darkness, the image of his deceased wife appeared before his eyes.

He didn't dare close his eyes.

——————————————————————————————————

Compared to 'them' who have unloaded their burdens.

A hint of hope inexplicably emerged in the spacious area of the entire sewer.

"smell good."

A chubby little girl ran to the side of the steam guard who was cooking in a big pot.

"Uncle Radwan, what are you doing?"

"Haha, look at you, you little greedy cat.

Of course, I will prepare something delicious for you to eat.”

The middle-aged man who brought the scattered survivors to the camp and took off his steel breastplate had a rare smile on his face.

Even the scar on his right eye from more than ten years ago was stretched out by his smile.

Maybe at this time.

Only children are most likely to accept reality.

The little girl stood on tiptoe curiously and wanted to see what was in the big pot, but because she was not tall enough, she couldn't see anything and looked very anxious.

Three seconds later.

She was picked up by a strong woman:

“Radwen, stop teasing little Jonah.

We have to thank our benefactor for these things.”

Su Wen, who had returned, also smelled the fragrance of the food.

He looked at Jiang Menghan who was sitting in the corner quietly enjoying this scene, and couldn't help but gently rubbed her long hair and then said:

"sometimes.

Just seeing this kind of picture warms my heart.”

The beautiful girl did not resist such an intimate act.

Instead, she leaned towards his side and whispered,
“That’s because we’re doing the right thing.”

She had no doubt that she had come to this conclusion.

Miss Jiang is a girl with a firm heart but extremely gentle.

Even.

Apart from Su Wen, she would not express this too much to anyone else:

"Mr. Rhine, I have seen too many tragic silhouettes on this trip.

Uncontrolled kindness is foolish.

But I also understand.

It's understandable that children are afraid of the dark.

The real tragedy in life is that adults also fear the light."

Su Wen nodded.

His words were calm, yet filled with a long, distant gaze:
"you're right.

Ending that is what I have been doing.”

That's right.

The big pot that Radwen was stewing was made from ingredients that Su Wen had asked the photographer to prepare at Starfall Port.

Because of the storage box, Su Wen only needs to take out the food in a place where no one is paying attention.

Even a lame enough excuse would be enough.

In the face of the result of these full meals, the process is the answer.

Maybe it doesn't matter.

Su Wen deeply understood this.

But he did not give out too much supplies, just enough for the survivors in the camp to survive for a while:
"Too much pity will not bring more gratitude.

Leaving hope enough.

If Krosan could solve this virus.

Perhaps, that is the real 'salvation.'" Then.

He then calmly spoke of the information he had just received.

"It's not completely dark, is it?"

The girl thought quietly about this sentence. She did not extend it to the scenes described in "Aztec Mythology" or "Popol Vuh" in a religious way.

in contrast.

She raised her head slightly and blinked her beautiful eyes, then looked at the detective beside her:

"This situation should also be able to be explained through astrophysics."

Su Wen nodded:

"That's right,
Based on the mist of the Lost Sea,
Is it because the Oort cloud is displaced away from the stellar belt that the so-called 'galactic islands' are formed?

Well, dear Miss Jiang.

I think.

You should have found the answer that agrees with what I had in mind."

"A Lagrange point in a non-Euclidean space, right?"

She did not hesitate, but expressed this conjecture in a cold voice.
“It’s just speculation.

However, as the most common cause of solar and lunar eclipses in the world, the Lagrangian effect of celestial bodies is not uncommon.

Suddenly.

The system prompt slowly emerged:

[Congratulations, great chief player]

[You have discovered the B+ level hidden mission: The cause of the eternal night]

[Mission Description: The secret of eternal night hides the other side connected by the cosmic strings.

The acquisition of this coordinate may become a lookout for the Great Wall of the Galaxy someday in the future.

Try to solve this mystery.

[Mission Reward: Star Map Coordinate Locator]

The hint did not reveal that their suspicions were entirely correct.

But it also proves that at least there is no problem with the direction.

now.

As the aroma of food filled the survivors' camp, the so-called sad atmosphere was unknowingly diluted a lot.

A chubby little girl ran towards them and said with a child's unique and innocent cuteness:
"Brother and sister, thank you so much for the food, come and eat together."

But next second.

A woman in an apron came over, took hold of her daughter, and bowed in fear and said:
"sorry.

grown ups.

My child doesn't know etiquette, please don't mind it."

Su Wen just waved his hand.

Then he squatted down, rubbed the little girl's head, and handed her a strawberry candy:
"take it easy.

We are not people living in the so-called age of steam and aristocracy, and we will not be offended by a child's words.

Quite the opposite.

That's stupid behavior.

Only when a civilization learns to respect children and the elderly will it truly understand how to survive over time.

Go ahead and eat more.

My brother is not hungry yet, but I can’t say for sure about my sisters.”

"Sister isn't hungry either."

Jiang Menghan rarely added a sentence.

She, who was always aloof, seemed to be a little bit girlish when Su Wen teased her.

But looking at the children cheering in the distance.

A beautiful smile quietly appeared at the corner of her mouth.

“The strength inherited by the castaways is truly moving.

I am so glad to experience this journey with you.

That's great. "

Hear her say that.

Su Wen seemed to have returned to the time when they used to video call each other before going to bed at night.

So he just smiled gently:

“The coastline of Paris, France, and the sky above the Hyrule Mountains.

Snow falls in Moscow and the whistle of the first route in Detroit, Michigan, North America.

We have seen a lot together.

But the future.

We will also see more scenery belonging to this corner of the world,
Everything has just begun.

Miss Jiang.

As Gerald Manley Hopkins wrote in his poem "I Didn't Spend Everything With You":
I have met a thousand animals and seen a thousand wonderful things…

All this I did without you.
This was my loss.
All this I want to do with you.
All of this will be my best expectation
(I have met countless creatures and seen countless beautiful scenes...

I didn't spend all this with you.
It will be my loss;
I want to spend these things with you.
That will be my best expectation.
