Chapter 323 That Skeleton
Chapter 323 That Skeleton
After what he said just now, Barton also felt a little unbelievable. He actually entrusted his child to an alien life to take care of?
This is a very absurd thing, but when he saw Zuo Si's smooth metal body, all the sense of absurdity in Barton's heart disappeared. Since he bought it back, the most he has done is to help maintain the car, except that he rode it once when he brought her home, and he has not driven the car since then.
His hand flicked across the rearview mirror, landed on the handlebar, and followed the all-metal body all the way down.
Zuo Si: "..." Fortunately, I am not a person, otherwise Barton's current appearance would be no different from harassment. However, he always touches Zuo Si's car body when he is doing maintenance on weekdays, so Zuo Si is very concerned. It quickly adapted to his hand.
After he touched his body all over, Zuo Si saw Barton open the door of the warehouse, and then he walked back and sat on his body.
A very bad premonition arose in Zuo Si's heart, but her premonition became true in the next second.
The engine in her body roared, and then Barton stepped on the gas, and her body flew out like a sharp arrow.
Zuo Si thought that Johnny was a bit too wild when he was riding him, but after another person rode on her, Zuo Si realized that Barton really deserved to be Johnny's father. The speed is simply more than that.
Zuo Si, who is a motorcycle but hates racing: "..."
She really hates the setting of herself as a motorcycle! ! ! !
Since he was 30 years old, Barton has never ridden a car except for speed performances. However, this time, without a helmet, he rode his favorite car and galloped on the deserted road at midnight. , but stimulated the passion in his heart that had been silent for a long time.
Barton even controlled Zuo Si to perform several extremely difficult movements, enjoying the adrenaline rush brought about by extreme sports.
Zuo Si: "..." She felt that she should have a good talk with Barton about using her body to race the car. She really didn't like this kind of behavior.
The car was moving forward on the dark asphalt road, the blowing wind had already blown Barton's hair away from his scalp, and he inhaled the icy cold air. His lungs felt pain after wave, and every part of his body A cell is clamoring for him to stop.
However, Barton didn't seem to feel it. He was completely intoxicated by the intoxication brought about by the surge of adrenaline.
The dazzling headlights split the darkness ahead and illuminated Barton's way forward. Zuo Si had a wide field of vision, and she could clearly see the area covered by the headlights.
She saw a figure in black clothes standing on the side of the road.
When seeing that figure, Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, but vaguely saw that figure seemed to have taken off his top hat, and bowed slightly in her direction, but before she could see clearly what that person looked like By the time it looked like who it was, Barton had already driven her past him.
Although there are two lights on the front and back of the motorcycle, Zuo Si only has the front lights as eyes, and she can't see the man from the back lights. Wonderful feeling.
Button rode Zuo Si for a night of racing, and when it was just dawn, he just pushed Zuo Si back to the small town.
Last night, he raced so hard that he completely forgot that the fuel in the car's fuel tank was limited. When he came back, the car couldn't run without fuel. Barton had no choice but to get down and push the car.
"Grace, you are a high-tech motorcycle from an alien civilization, can't you drive without gas?"
When Barton went out, he didn't bring his wallet or anything, so he couldn't go to the gas station to refuel. He pushed Zuo Si for about two kilometers, and finally remembered this matter, so he asked her aloud.
"Of course I can move by myself without oil, but the prerequisite is that my body can't carry foreign objects, that is to say, I can drive home by myself, but you still have to walk on your own two feet go back."
Barton: "..." Isn't this kind of operation anti-human?
Although it is early in the morning, no one can guarantee that there are no early risers in the town. If he sees an unmanned motorcycle passing by, Bao Buqi will think he has seen a ghost, and the car still has his and his name printed on it. With the logos of Johnny and Johnny, everyone in the town knew that Grace belonged to their family, and they might cause some kind of big trouble at that time.
Button took a deep breath, and could only resign himself to pushing Zuo Si towards his home.
Although the cancer cells had spread all over his body, Barton's physical fitness was pretty good. Walking ten kilometers was nothing to him. He quickly pushed Zuo Si back home.
He had just entered the warehouse and parked Zuo Si. When Barton was about to cheer up Zuo Si, Johnny rushed in from the outside.
His clothes were messy and his hair was messy. When he saw Barton standing there, his eyes turned red instantly. Johnny ran over and said angrily, "Where did you go? Why are you doing this?" Come back late? What did you do?"
The more Johnny talked, the more emotional he became. In the end, his body even trembled uncontrollably. God knows, after he sobered up, he ran to find Barton, but found that Barton was not in the room. Afterwards, he went to the warehouse and saw Barton After he and Zuo Si were gone, he was so flustered.
If Barton was fine, Johnny wouldn't be so flustered, but Barton is already at the terminal stage of cancer. When he thinks that Johnny might fall down in any remote and insulting place when he rides out, he can't control it. Live in your own body.
Johnny didn't even bother to wash up after waking up, and frantically searched for Patton in the town. He even planned to go to the police station to call the police if he couldn't find Patton...
Button filled up Zuo Si's fuel tank, and then put the fuel tank down. After finishing everything, he just turned his head and looked at Johnny. When he saw Johnny's terrible appearance, Button's There was a hint of helplessness on his face.
"Johnny, what's the matter with you? I was just out for a drive."
Johnny's eyes flickered, thinking of the laboratory test sheet that he hid, he didn't say anything after all, just lowered his head, looking at the empty gasoline can at Barton's feet.
He held back a lot of words in his heart, which he wanted to tell Button, but now he couldn't say a word. After a long silence, he just said: "Dad, you want to go racing in the future. I'll go with you, you're alone, I'm worried about you being alone."
Hearing Johnny's words, Barton looked at Johnny's not-so-broad shoulders, with a look of relief on his face, raised his hand and patted Johnny's shoulder, and said softly, "Okay, I'll I'm also tired, and I want to take a break. If you're okay, help me maintain Grace, and the car over there, you can take care of everything, check it carefully, and we will go to the show later... "
Before Barton finished speaking, Johnny interrupted him. He stared at Barton with wide eyes, looked at him in disbelief and said, "What? You still have to perform? Dad, let's talk about it after a while." .”
Hearing what Johnny said, the smile on Barton's face went cold.
"Take a break to perform? Johnny, that's impossible. If you don't perform, you have no source of income, and we have to live."
"My body is clear to me, and there's nothing wrong with performing like this for me."
Barton patted Johnny on the shoulder, turned around and left the warehouse, watching the back of his father leaving, the expression on Johnny's face kept changing, and finally he sat down slumped, the handsome and young There was a look of bewilderment on his face.
Just a few days ago, he was living an ordinary and happy life like every ordinary 16-year-old boy. Why did his life change drastically overnight?
"Johnny, are you okay?"
Johnny's mood was a little abnormal, Zuo Si was afraid that he would collapse under the pressure, so he asked aloud.
A rough voice rang out in the warehouse, and Johnny came back to his senses in a daze. He turned his head and looked at Zuo Si. When he saw the dirt stained on Zuo Si's tires, Johnny murmured. Asked: "Grace, where did Patton take you? What happened last night?"
Zuo Si thought about it for a while, then organized his words, and then told all the things that happened last night.
After driving all night yesterday, Zuo Si felt that her exhaust pipe was getting hot after talking so much now. She sighed and felt that her life seemed a little too hard.
After Zuo Si finished everything, Johnny was silent for a long time, and then said: "You mean, Barton knows what you can talk about?"
Zuo Si hummed, and because the exhaust pipe had been running for too long, her tone of voice seemed to have changed a bit.
"Well, I said I'm from the planet Cybertron."
"Are you really from Cybertron?"
"...he lied to him, but because Barton guessed that way, I gave the most reasonable explanation based on his guess."
Johnny: "..."
After talking for a while, the warehouse became quiet again, and the sky outside gradually brightened. Seeing that Johnny was still sitting there without moving, Zuo Si said, "I remember just now that Barton seemed to let You're checking the car that's going to be on display for a while, aren't you going to check it out?"
No matter what happens, before death, life will still go on according to the previous track. Johnny restrained his mind and began to bow his head and get busy.
After staring at the serious and busy Johnny for a while, Zuo Si closed his eyes. When she closed her eyes, Zuo Si's mind suddenly came up with the man in the top hat that he saw on the side of the road last night. man.
Although it was just a glimpse, the impression he gave her was too deep, and she always felt that the man seemed to be a bit disobedient.
She opened her eyes again and looked at Johnny who was busy there. For some reason, she wanted to tell Johnny about this matter, but those words swirled around her lips and were swallowed by her again. in.
Zuo Si felt that she might have thought too much, she didn't see anything inappropriate about that man, maybe she thought too much.
Johnny was still busy there. Zuo Si looked at him for a while, but stopped looking at him. After racing all night, although her body didn't feel sleepy at all, her spirit couldn't hold on anymore.
Zuo Si closed her eyes. Originally, she thought she would not fall asleep. After all, she had not slept in this world for more than a year, but after closing her eyes this time, within a short time, Zuo Si fell into a deep sleep.
In the dream, there was a large black fog. Zuo Si felt that her soul was wrapped in the fog. She seemed to be trapped in the mud. The sticky feeling was everywhere. She felt that she was going to be covered by the fog. As if dragged into the deepest part.
A strong sense of crisis rose from the bottom of her heart. Although this was a dream, Zuo Si felt that if she fell into the dream, she might not be able to break free.
She began to struggle, but as she struggled, the mist wrapped her tighter and tighter, and the dragging feeling became stronger and stronger, and she could feel that her body seemed to be moving little by little. sinking into the depths of a dream...
Faced with such a situation, Zuo Si was helpless. At this moment, she saw intense flames rising from the depths of the dream, and those flames rushed towards this side with great momentum.
The raging flames rendered the whole dream into a brilliant orange red, the mist dissipated under the scorching of the flames, and the feeling of being bound disappeared, and in the next second, Zuo Si was completely engulfed by those flames.
She felt that her flesh and skin were turned into ashes under the scorching flames, and her body was left with only white bones. Those flames attached to her bones, and her bones also burned...
The dream ended here, and Zuo Si also woke up from the dream, and slowly regained consciousness. She blinked and found herself in Johnny's warehouse, and all the fog and flames disappeared. gone.
There are no burning skeletons, she is still a stylish motorcycle.
Recalling the dream just now, Zuo Si frowned. She always felt that the dream was an omen. She didn't know where this feeling came from, but she subconsciously felt that such a thing might happen...
She shook her head, the car faucet started to turn, and there was a creaking sound. This scene happened to be seen by the father and son who came in from outside the warehouse.
When they saw the car moving by itself, Johnny and Button looked at each other, and they both saw the helplessness on each other's faces.
The father and son pushed the car into the warehouse, and then set it up for repairs. Seeing that Zuo Si was still moving there, Johnny raised his voice and said, "Grace, what are you doing?"
"I'm moving my body."
As Zuo Si said, Johnny's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly, "If you want to move, wait until there is no one around. We are all here now, and someone will come in at any time. If you are seen , how should we explain it?"
After hearing Johnny's words, Zuo Si obediently stopped and didn't continue to move. Johnny heaved a sigh of relief, and turned his head to fix the car, but when he turned his head, he found that Barton was smiling look at yourself.
"Johnny, is there anything you want to tell me?"
Looking at his father, Johnny said very calmly: "Believe my father, I only knew about this one day before you."
Button smiled, and the two didn't say much about this matter.
When the father and son had just repaired the car, Luo Shan appeared at the door of the warehouse.
Roseanne had a gloomy look on her face. When she saw Johnny lying on the ground repairing the car, she bit her lip. When she realized that Johnny hadn't noticed her, Roseanne yelled.
"Johnny."
After hearing the voice of his beloved girl, Johnny sat up abruptly. When he saw Rosanne standing by the door, he subconsciously looked towards Barton next to him.
After Johnny got up, Button also sat up. When he saw Johnny looking at him, Button couldn't help being a little funny: "Brat, your girlfriend is here to see you, and you are here to see what I am doing."
?Go, go, don't get in the way here. "
"Dad, can you be alone? Otherwise, I'll stay with you..."
Johnny was a little worried about his father's physical condition and didn't want to leave his father, but Barton forced Johnny away.
"I'm still a child? Go, go, when did I use you to take care of me? You can take Roseanne out and ride Grace."
Johnny looked at his father, then at Luoshan, and finally rode Zuo Si and took Luoshan to the outside of the town under the big tree where the two often dated.
Zuo Si, who hadn't recovered from last night's drag racing, was now being ridden out again: "..."
She felt that she was really a very good-tempered motorcycle. If she changed to a bad-tempered motorcycle, she might overturn Johnny and Luo Shan who were riding on her back.
"Grace, I'm sorry, please bear with me a little bit."
"Johnny, who are you talking to?"
"My motorcycle."
"..."
After all the riding, isn't it too late to tell her not to be angry now? ? ?
Fortunately, today's Johnny is very well-behaved, and the speed of his bicycle is not as it seems, and they did not leave the town very far, and soon stopped outside a small forest outside the town.
After picking up the car, Johnny patted the seat cushion, whispered a few words to Zuo Si, and after soothing Zuo Si's emotions, he took Luo Shan's hand and walked towards the grove.
In fact, it is not very interesting to stay in the warehouse often, and it is also a good choice to come out occasionally to let the wind go.
Seeing the young couple leaving holding hands, Zuo Si silently closed his eyes and looked towards the distant mountains.
