The discharge procedures were quickly completed.
In fact, when Lu Xiaoqiao called Lu Zhou, Vera had basically recovered.
Except for the fact that she had been in a dormant state for a long time, and the organs of her body had not fully adapted to the feeling of being awake, causing her to occasionally feel anemic, she was basically no different from a normal person.
Praise the future of technology.
From the perspective of the 21st century, this was like a miracle.
Back home in the suburbs of Jinling.
Xiao Ai, with a drone lying on top of his head, was quietly hiding on the side, staring at this special guest.
As an artificial intelligence, the intuition of big data told it that its two-person world with its master might be disturbed again.
At least for a while.
Through the holographic operation interface, Lu Zhou skillfully waved his index finger and assigned the right to use the door locks to Vera one by one.
After turning off the holographic panel, he then looked at the little girl, whose cheeks were slightly red and standing in the living room, at a loss.
"Before you find a place to live, you will live here for the time being. Your room is the guest room on the second floor. The door lock can be operated through your personal terminal. I have already sent you the electronic key. "
"Huh?"
Seeing the unexpected expression on Vera's face, Lu Zhou cast a questioning look at her.
"Is there a problem?"
Vera nodded slightly and whispered, "Then what if I can't find a suitable place to live?"
"Of course not." Lu Zhou smiled and gave her an encouraging look. "I will help you."
Vera gently pursed her lips into the shape of a w. She seemed to be angry, but she quickly returned to her usual appearance and said politely in a low voice.
"Thank you."
Although this' thank you 'didn't sound very willing.
It took Lu Zhou the whole afternoon to help her tidy up the room and gave her some knowledge about this era and common sense in life.
For example, Xiao Ai was an android. Androids were humans' best friends and family helpers.
For example, in this information age, the ID and holographic code that marked one's identity meant everything. Whether it was personal credit or credit points that were used as currency, they were all linked to it, so it must be kept safe.
And …
The topic he was researching.
After finishing these things, just as Lu Zhou was about to hide in the laboratory, a small hand suddenly pulled his cuff.
"Wait a minute …"
That soft yet firm voice seemed to be stuck to time.
Lu Zhou fell into silence as he met those lake-like eyes that were focused on him.
In fact, he could already guess what she was going to say next.
"… Although it may be a century ago to you, it's like yesterday to me. Thank you for the last kiss. Although I fell asleep in the end … fortunately, you were still here when I woke up. "
"Although it was a century ago, my thoughts haven't changed."
"The first person I thought of after waking up is you, and the person I want to see the most is you …"
"So …"
Looking at the girl with anxiety and hope on her face, Lu Zhou knew that he couldn't continue to hesitate like this, so he put on a serious look and looked at her.
"Listen, there is something I have to tell you."
The voice full of emotion paused slightly.
Looking at Lu Zhou with a serious expression on his face, Vera, who already had a hunch, spoke with a trembling voice.
"Go ahead."
"I …" After being silent for a while, Lu Zhou said, "I already have a fiancée."
The air was quiet for a few seconds.
The entire space seemed to be still. Even Xiao Ai, who was quietly hiding and peeping, was frozen there.
In the end, it was the gently trembling eyelashes that broke the silence.
Looking at the trace of sadness in her eyes, Lu Zhou was about to say something to comfort her, but he heard her suddenly say.
"That person … must be a very beautiful girl."
Although he didn't understand why she asked this, Lu Zhou still nodded matter-of-factly.
"Yes, in my heart, she is irreplaceable."
Even though that was a century ago …
Listening to the words that were spoken without hesitation, Vera felt a faint pain in her chest.
But now, she was no longer the cowardly little girl who only knew how to bring others to save her.
After taking a deep breath, she tried to restrain the sourness that filled her chest and continued.
"… I may have seen her."
"You should have seen her a long time ago in Stockholm, she was the —"
"As I said before, when I was asleep, I had a very long dream." Vera rarely interrupted Lu Zhou's words. She smiled softly and continued softly, "Although I didn't quite understand who the person standing in front of the crystal coffin was at the time, now I may understand who I saw at that time."
Does frozen dormancy produce dreams?
Although this was difficult to achieve from a scientific point of view, as a scholar, Lu Zhou knew very well what the nature of science was. There were many things that science could explain at this stage and many things that were difficult to explain …
Moreover, when he was on Mars, he had a similar experience.
"Did you dream of her?"
"To be precise, it may not have been a dream. Although there was something between us, she seemed to be standing next to me. "
Lu Zhou immediately asked.
"What did she say to you?"
"I probably don't remember the rest, but I do remember that she said that you went to a place that was even more distant than time and space. She also said that if a miracle really happened, she hoped that I could take good care of you for her."
That does sound like what she would say …
Just like in the holographic video, he hoped that she would forget him and start a new life.
Looking at Lu Zhou, who had fallen into silence, Vera's eyes flickered with hope as she spoke softly.
"It can't be helped, I lost to time … But fortunately, a miracle really happened. Today, 100 years later, I met you again."
Lu Zhou: "… But I don't plan on changing my mind. For you, what happened 100 years ago seems like it happened yesterday, and it's the same for me. Everything seems to have happened yesterday. Two years ago, I made a promise in front of Lake Mälaren, and on that snowy night last year, I promised her that I would give her a star — "
Vera blinked lightly.
"But that was a century ago, right?"
After being silent for a while, Lu Zhou nodded.
"Yes … even if it was a century ago."
With a smile on her face, Vera continued.
"Please rest assured, I will not let the person I love become a liar. He is a hero in my mind."
Looking at the silent Lu Zhou, she continued.
"That formula … is for warp navigation, right?"
Lu Zhou nodded.
Looking at Lu Zhou, Vera, who had gathered her courage, continued in a firm tone.
"I will help you complete it."
A hint of surprise appeared on Lu Zhou's face. He looked at her in disbelief and confirmed.
"… Are you serious?"
"Yeah."
She nodded slightly. Her fluffy and soft hair exuded the brilliance of an angel.
She looked intently at the person she liked in front of her. She had decided not to retreat anymore. She continued in a serious tone.
"Legends about heroes are never limited to just one page."
"I will go to Tau Ceti with you, whether you plan to come back here or not.
"After completing that promise, the rest of the story belongs to us."
