The two people sitting opposite each other didn't know that there was a gaze coming from outside.
Perhaps it was because she had just left the work environment, or perhaps it was because she hadn't seen Law for a long time, Sambika, who had always been quiet, unconsciously opened her mouth.
Every word she said was asking about Luo's experience during this period of time.
Law could see that Sambika was very relaxed now, so he picked out some interesting experiences for Sambika to listen.
As they chatted, the topic turned to the past, talking about leaving Ellie's house a long time ago, walking on the mountain road and hitching a ride with a girl, and talking about one time, in order to find out the source of the virus, he entered the mountains and conducted a comprehensive inspection on a pile of unknown beast feces.
The last topic to end their reminiscing was the first time they met.
In the end, the two looked at each other and smiled, suddenly feeling the changes brought by time.
At that time, Law was just a kid.
Now, he has become an uncle who let his stubble grow.
"Haven't you found a solution to your arm?" Sambika suddenly looked at Law's empty left arm.
"In fact, there has always been a way, but the time has not come."
"What do you mean?"
Law looked at the puzzled Sambika and smiled: "I brought back the 'culprit' from that place, and it can be solved when I find a time to return it."
Sambica nodded as she listened to Law's words of "returning things to their rightful owners".
She may not understand, but she can hear that Law has a way to solve it.
"Are you busy with work? Are you having trouble eating three meals a day again? " Law changed the topic to Sambika's work. He had reminded Sambika many times before not to neglect other things because of work.
"Yes." Sambika would not lie and explained: "Recently, the research lab found an unknown bacterium that can breed on corpses. The danger factor is preliminarily assessed as B-Level, so everyone in the research lab, including me, is busy analyzing the bacterium."
"Is it infectious?"
"Yes."
"You can't find out the details?"
"Well, the danger factor of the bacterium still has potential room to rise, even my body may not be able to withstand it." Sambika said.
"What if we can't find out the details in the end?" Law asked.
A bacterium that can make Sambika give this evaluation is by no means an ordinary existence.
Sambica fell silent upon hearing this.
Law looked at the suddenly silent Sambuka and said seriously, "Even if you can't find out, you can't mess around."
"My profession and work will determine what I do, just like you can set foot in some places that have never been to regardless of the danger." Sambika looked at Law seriously.
Luo could not refute Sambika's statement.
Then, Sambika talked about the unknown bacteria.
The more Luo Shi listened, the more frightened he became. He felt that this bacteria was very dangerous.
Although the contagion was relatively weak, even normal high temperatures couldn't kill it, making it a rather troublesome characteristic.
The most important thing was that the infected dead would turn into powder, and each particle was a source of infection. If it started to spread from a certain place, it might spread all at once.
Fortunately, this virus was only effective on humans, which was both good and bad news.
The good news was that the transmission route had been stopped, but the bad news was that the virus posed a high potential risk to human society.
"No one knows where this germ came from. Preliminary speculation is that it might have been brought to the surface by some deep-sea creature." When Sambika talked about topics related to her profession, she always showed an attentive attitude.
Nowadays, human science and technology developed rapidly, and there was a system of telekinesis.
However, some places in the depths of the sea were still difficult for humans to explore. Even on the land, there were still some magical realms and secret realms that had not been completely explored.
"This possibility is quite high."
Law said, and suddenly thought of the chimera ant queen that drifted from the Dark Continent.
Then, Sambika talked about various possibilities.
Luo Feng listened quietly, occasionally replying.
They chatted like this, and two or three hours passed unknowingly.
It was late at night, and Law could hear that Sambika's voice was getting more and more tired. He understood that Sambika must not have had a good rest during this time, so he took the initiative to interrupt the topic and proposed to send Sambika home to rest.
Sambika looked at the time and realized that two or three hours had passed, and it was already very late.
She thought that she had to rush to the Institute tomorrow morning, so she did not refuse Law's proposal.
The two walked out of the 24-hour Silver Arch Door together and walked in the direction of their residence.
In the distance, Machi's eyes were a little resentful, wondering what Law and Sambika were talking about inside that they could talk for so long.
She quietly followed behind the two people in front of her.
Twenty minutes later, Law sent Sambika to the door of her house.
Sambika opened the door with the key and walked in. Then she turned to look at Law standing at the door, paused, and said, "You should go back and rest."
"Okay, good night."
Law smiled and said goodbye to Sambika, then turned and left.
Sambika did not close the door immediately, but listened to the footsteps that were gradually fading away.
Only when the footsteps could not be heard did she slowly close the door.
She stared fixedly at the tightly shut door. No one knew what she was thinking.
In fact, she had been suppressing a small thought deep in her heart tonight.
Because of the past, she had a certain impulse.
She really wanted to appear in the experience Law told tonight.
.....
Law left the neighborhood and walked on the way back to the Association.
Suddenly, a gust of strong evening wind blew over from behind.
When the wind blew forward, Law looked slightly startled and immediately smiled.
He smelled a familiar smell, did not stop, and continued to move forward.
In front of a beverage shop that was open until midnight, he went in and packed a bag of snacks and three cups of hot drinks.
Coming out of the beverage shop, Law suddenly turned around, raised the packed drinks and snacks, and shook them into the distant night.
In the distance, Machi saw Law's action and knew that she had been discovered.
She didn't turn around and run, but showed up directly and came to Law. Her calm face made people unable to see anything.
"Jealous?"
Law handed Machi a cup of hot drink.
"No."
Machi replied as she took the hot drink.
"That's good."
Law happily accepted Machi's answer.
Then, he was hit in the waist by Machi's elbow.
Law put the packed things into the Black Cat's space, then took Machi into his arms and smiled: "You said you're not jealous."
"Hum."
Machi snorted and asked, "What were you talking about in there for so long?"
"We talked about the past."
"Oh, and you're tempted?"
"No, I'm just a little emotional. I feel that time flies so fast, and I'm almost thirty."
"Boring." Ma Qi didn't give him any face.
Law didn't care, looked at the night road ahead, and suddenly said: "Or, let's have a baby?"
Snap!
The paper drink cup with warm milk was crushed.
"You, what did you just say?"
Machi panicked and looked at Law, who was splashed with milk.
Law silently raised his hand to wipe the milk off his face and said seriously: "Do you want me to repeat it again?"
"No!"
