Chapter 314
Chapter 314
"Isn't it all right to be away from your companions? Mr. Mansfield...isn't it?"
Now, Dr. Shi, Kagawa and Okuro are walking from a main road to the settlement on the island.It's getting late now, only moonlight and starlight are scattered on the somewhat damp road, and the direction can only be identified by a few lights from the settlement ahead.But there was no one else on the road.
From time to time, I looked at the man in a suit and leather shoes next to me. He had a face that anyone would have to admit was very good-looking, and a hairstyle that was so exquisite that countless people had put their heart and soul into it.Even if the high-end suit has been soaked in seawater, it still looks very good, because even if it has been soaked in seawater, this person is still a handsome guy wearing a suit that has been soaked in seawater.
The handsome guy is really unreasonable.
"Don't worry, Miss Shi. I'm just very interested in the things on this island." Kagawa said with his standard smile, "After all, it's not every day that you encounter the Tianlong people's testing ground. Maybe you can get it here." Very valuable information."
"Information...?" Who is this person... Shi Shi said with some confusion, "I heard that you are a businessman..."
"Miss Shi, where are you from?"
"Huh? Well, I'm from Wano Country..."
"I see. No wonder you don't know me." Saying that, Kagawa took out his business card from his coat.Why is the business card so brand new after soaking in sea water?I don't know, maybe it's the handsome guy's magic.In short, he put the business card in Shi's hands, "I run many companies and enterprises, if you need, you can contact me at any time."
"Wow..." Is, is it the big boss?This is completely out of the scope of businessmen in Shi's mind.She said, "There is no one like you in Wano Country."
"I am preparing to go to Wano Country to find opportunities to develop my business."
"Going now?" Shi became even more surprised, and she said, "I, I think... it's not good to go now? Sorry, although I can't say too much, but the current Wano country is not suitable for businessmen to go... ..."
In this way, you are still clear about the current situation in Wano Country.So what is the reason for not going to Wano country but here to adventure with a time traveler?When Kagawa watched with interest, he thought for a moment and then said, "Excuse me, Miss Toki. Did you escape because you learned about the situation in Wano Country?"
"No, it's not!" It seemed that this person also knew... Shi said nervously, "I... I just..."
At that time, he carefully looked at the doctor who was walking in front and happily answered Zed's various questions. Zed didn't know if it was because he heard that the doctor was a "doctor", so he caught him and asked some questions about humans and cloning. Kind of hard questions, and PhDs happen to be very passionate about answering them.They seem to be on good terms.
As for Olu, he kept following everyone, as if observing something, but he didn't say anything anyway.She looked at the doctor at the time, and then smiled wryly. She said: "I have a magic that can travel through time. Mr. Mansfield. But this magic can only let me go forward to the future, and I can't go back to the past. And I And so I have a mission. I have to travel to the future."
"... Isn't this mission too heavy for you?"
"I have to, I have to do this...Although I can't tell you the details, please understand that this may be my destiny. Keep moving forward, forward, and then find the 'end point' that I was destined for." Shi explained Said, "I'm really scared, after all, it's a journey into the future, no one can teach me experience, no one can guarantee what will happen."
"On the night before departure, I had bid farewell to my parents and had made all preparations. Just when I decided to overcome all fears, face my mission, and start my never-ending journey toward the future, Dr. Appeared."
As if recalling happy things, she smiled sincerely, and she said: "His time machine made a loud noise and appeared in my room. It was more miraculous than anything I've ever seen, He told me that he can not only go to the future, but also go back to the past, and even go to any star, to witness any piece of history. No one can refuse him, Mr. Mansfield."
"——When he learned about me, he extended his hand to me. He said he could take me on a trip, wherever I wanted to go. During this period, I had no heavy mission on me, no need A mission to accomplish, he could take me on an adventure among the stars until I was really sure I was going on the journey alone. And when I was, he would take me back to that night."
"That's the night we met, at that time, that day, nothing will be missed."
This is indeed an invitation that no one can refuse.Let alone a girl who is afraid of going on a journey alone.Kagawa paused, and he said, "So you accepted his invitation."
"How could I refuse..." Shi smiled happily, and she said, "Fortunately, I didn't refuse. This is a wonderful trip that has never been seen before, and has never been imagined. I have experienced the charm of history, Become friends with those ancient kings, listen to their ideals. Be the audience of those talented artists, and shed tears for the beauty they sing..."
"I have become less afraid of the future, Mr. Mansfield, and I have come to believe that, somewhere far away, my end awaits me. No . , but my mood has changed."
"I'm very glad that your mood can change." Kagawa said, "If you can keep calm about the endless future, you must meet some incredible people in time and space."
"That's right. Before I met the Doctor, I never thought that there would be such a person... There was a painter named Leonardo da Vinci, he had amazing intelligence and incredible talent, he could do anything, in the It is easy to surpass others in any field, but he did not choose to study what already exists, but to create what has never existed before."
"Even if others say that it is impossible, even if he himself knows that it is as incredible as the Arabian Nights, he still creates with great interest. I have seen his eyes when he created, those shining eyes, I Know that what his eyes see is no longer the present, but the distant future."
"I have also seen a man named Ramses, who was the king of a country where he was called 'Pharaoh', and people believed him to be a god, and he was worshiped as a god. And he also accepted such glory , shouldering all the responsibilities of being a 'god'. He built great achievements, ruled the people, assumed the joys and sorrows of all the people, and assumed all the prosperity and decline of the kingdom..."
"When I saw him, I couldn't believe that he was actually a human being. A human being could bear such a heavy burden alone. His eyes were also shining brightly, even though he knew he was not a god, one day he would come from The golden palace fell, but he still stood there, never flinching from the burden of 'God'."
"There are many, many writers who write poems for me. He sings the praises of tragedy, but makes people cheer for love and life. Painters who can't succeed can't imagine that their paintings will be pushed to the altar in the future... There are too many, too many With Mr. Mansfield, these shining people are like stars in the sky..."
As he spoke, Shi raised his head, and above the small island, the clear night sky with no wind was covered by the Milky Way.When she raised her hand, as if she wanted to touch the shining galaxy, she said, "It's really too shining. Look, how shining the world that they make up, and the future that they expect should be..."
"Miss Shi..." What a romantic thought.Indeed, because it is a romantic trip.You are led by the doctor to meet those stars who shine in history, which must make you full of hope.After all, that's who they are, and that's why they're great and different.However……
However, there are not only those shining stars in the night sky.
I'm very sorry...Miss Shi.I'm not being pessimistic, it's just that your thoughts are too romantic.Xiangchuan also looked up at the starry sky, and after a while he said: "Do you believe that in the future you are going to, your 'end point' will also be a star?"
"Well..." Shi lowered her eyes from the night sky and put her eyes on Kagawa, she smiled and said, "No. Those stars are really too bright. I won't force the end point to shine like a morning star, That person may have some shortcomings, and may have the same romantic and naive thoughts as me, but..."
"As long as it is a shining star, even the faintest light, in the darkest night, it must be... the brightest one."
Said: "As long as it is like this. As long as there is hope shining in his eyes... It doesn't matter if it's just the end struggling in the dark and helpless. Because... because I believe in the future, Mr. Mansfield. Even if It's a future I can no longer go to, and I believe in it."
Because there are stars, they will guide people in the direction to go.All that talent, all that fell from heaven, all of it was a direction.Either side is fine, and a brighter starry sky may be discovered on either side, no matter which planet's history is pushed forward a little bit like this.therefore……
So even if my end point is just a small star with faint light, I will not regret it, nor will I feel afraid.Because this trip will never be meaningless——
I have seen the stars, and I will never fear the dark again.
"Master Shi." At this time, Olu suddenly stepped forward, and he said while watching, "The end of human beings is death. You don't need to stay in any particular place."
"Mr. Augustus...?"
Ahh... only you and Caesar Courant would call me that!The contrast is really strong!Olu was not used to hearing this name.He said: "Mission or something, fate and the like are just excuses to bind you. No matter where you plan to stay in the end, I hope that is your own choice."
So it should be fine.So it shouldn't change any history, right?Fuck it, it doesn't matter.I'm going to speak up, I have to speak up.This kind of...something that no one may have ever said to Master Shi, this kind of words that I only understood after going through all the hardships, must be told to Master Shi.
"I hope you can finally... be happy. Master Shi."
You are so beautiful under the stars.You like this should not fall into that fire.I know that my words may not change anything. I know that history has already been done, and it is impossible to change the ending easily.But... But at least, I hope you can understand that the doctor has taken you to so many places, and what he wants you to understand is that you have your own choices from beginning to end.
Because you are so incredible, you have traveled through the stars, traveled through history, talked with great kings, listened to talented artists singing the praises of the world, you have stood on the same line with them, you have long been given the choice power to do.You don't need to be attached to anyone, be it Kozuki Oden or One Piece Roger...
Master Shi, you are an unparalleled shining star.You yourself are the end you are looking for.
At least that's how it seems to me.
"Mr. Augustus, thank you." Shi Shi didn't know if she had noticed Olu's mood, but she just showed a beautiful smile, "I am also very glad to meet you here. It has been a long time since I met anyone Having said all that... I'm very happy. But... I'll go back to the night I met the Doctor, and start my solo journey."
"Really...Miss Shi. I think Mr. Olu is right. Maybe you don't have to go back. You are very different, even if you set off from here to a farther future, you can do it." Kagawa said, "Whether it is responsibility or mission, it is impossible to catch up with you."
"It's true..." Shi Shi sighed helplessly, and she said, "I may just be an insignificant little star in a certain period of history. But maybe, just maybe. I think... maybe even if I'm just like me A person who can shine a little light, not so great, can also become someone's signpost. At that time, I will really find my end."
--------------------
The author has something to say:
Even an inferior star can be a guidepost.
I think time should exist independently.Regardless of whether she is Oden's wife or not, she has nothing wrong with sending Kin'emon and others to the future.And her part as Mita's wife is reflected in the fact that she can escape together, she can obviously escape to a future that no one can catch up to, but she chooses to stay and fall with that person: I have found the end, no more future.
Matthew said that love is the worst disease of mankind.
Kozuki Oden is a very controversial character, but I actually like it quite a bit.A reader once asked Oda in SBS: Why do all the characters you create have various shortcomings?Oda replied: Because usually when we love someone, we love his shortcomings.
Kozuki Oden also has shortcomings. I especially like this kind of imperfection, which can give me more ideas.This part of his brain hole is related to Master Yulian (the ex-boyfriend's family) and Xiao Shengzi's family that appeared before!Everyone look forward to it hehe w~
By the way, everyone can tell who the people she met in this chapter are!They are all famous and big figures in our history!Everyone can guess!
By the way, here is a quote from the doctor who abducted the people on earth: All of time and space; everywhere and anywhere; (All time and space, all places, anywhere, even every star that ever existed, where do you want to go first?)
No one can refuse such an invitation.
