The afternoon is about to pass, as if it is a serene evening that foreshadows a twilight veil, and the infinite darkness of night is about to come,
The clear blue sky has turned into a warm glow,
Calgary melts in this sunset.
In a retro and elegant coffee shop, sitting in a quiet position by the window, Kolosos was not surprised to hear the youth in front of him ask this question.
Just looking at his expression is not a disgusting question to the traitor, nor is it pure gossip curiosity.
Serious, calm, and solemn, as if not asking the reason for betrayal,
It's asking...
What is your wish?
It is not that the city is deep, nor is it good at disguising. Under the strength of the A-level superiors, the opponent turned out to be a young person at this stage of life.
After discovering this, Kolosos smiled.
Although the status of the leader of the royal court has been abandoned, the change in appearance has not changed the inner age. The mentality of the elderly who has watched the growth of generations of young people remains.
Make him feel that he should answer this question well.
So after thinking for a while, Korosos looked at Calgary in the sunset outside the window and smiled:
"What do you think of this city?"
I was taken aback by this familiar question, but unlike the last time I heard it in Paris, he just came here today.
Fang Ran knew nothing about Calgary.
"This is a nice city,"
The experience of the elders can easily see through his ignorance, and Kolosos asked and answered with a gentle smile.
"Alberta is the richest province in Canada, and Calgary is the most economically developed city here,"
The old gentleman who has experienced so many social tea parties can always make the conversation feel like spring breeze.
"Most people here have very high incomes, and they do well in social undertakings such as education. The safety factor and happiness index are high. The benefits are so high that you can enjoy free medical care on the first day of immigration."
"Although it is very cold in winter, there are warm winds returning from the Rocky Mountains, and the temperature can often rise more than ten degrees in a few hours..."
A topic completely unrelated to why betrayal, but Fang Ran did not interrupt, just listened quietly,
Listening to him, who had served as the leader of the royal court for decades, introduced the details of the city, complementing his own perception of "clean city and fresh air".
From the scenery to the climate, from the economy to the humanities, all kinds of details are vivid that I only know after living here for many years.
"But apart from these, the reason why this province is the richest is also the biggest feature of this city,"
Then at the end, Kolosos looked at Fang Ran and smiled.
"This is an oil city. This is the second largest energy center in North America."
Oil, energy....
There was an accident at the moment when he heard this sentence, to recover the contract and help Eisencke Vermeer through the difficulties. What he is taking over in reality is the energy field.
It's just that Fang Ran didn't expect to hear this topic in the conversation with Kolosos.
"Ever since mankind learned to use fire, energy has always been the absolute core of civilization."
In the small cafe, the words looked infinitely emotional, and a single sentence pulled the topic that had already deviated further.
Then Korosos looked at Fang Ran and smiled again:
"I was born in a large family with a long history in the UK. For many people in this world, I stood at an end that they might not reach since I was born."
With a slightly surprised look, he didn't expect him to talk about another irrelevant topic.
Fang Ran looked at Kolossos's young face, with a look of ecstasy that needs to be remembered because time has passed for too long.
"At that time... the family has found many teachers for me since I was young to teach me all kinds of things, from etiquette to horsemanship, from mathematics to classical literature,"
"I'm pretty talented, I can do everything quickly, responding to everyone's expectations..."
Listening to the fascinating tone of Kolosos’ voice that looked like an old photo,
At this moment, I suddenly realized the preciousness of this moment, I was listening to an A-level telling his past.
Fang Ran smelled the faint coffee scent in the cafe, and imagined a picture of a young British master showing his talent since he was a child...
"Born from a well-known family and talented, there is nothing to fault in this kind of life, but maybe it's because everything is too easy,"
"It makes me not interested in many things,"
Klossos turned his gaze to look at Fang Ran smiling.
"The kind of ‘interest’ that can be called the meaning of life and truly comes from the bottom of my heart."
Family background, wealth, ability... everything is like a top-level origin that an A-level identity should have.
It is also natural that the problem of seeking higher spiritual satisfaction but difficult to find appears.
The moment he heard this description from the bottom of his heart, Fang Ran finally understood what he wanted to say.
"Until one weekend when I was twelve, I ended my art appreciation course and returned home after saying goodbye to everyone."
"My grandfather took me to the study, he let me sit on his lap, spread out the book to tell me about the opportunity of our family's rise in the early last century,"
Obviously it should have been quite a long time ago, but I can still tell the details of that day,
Klossos looked at Fang Ran, and there was rarely an eager color in his gentle expression to say the answer.
"The first industrial revolution."
The Industrial Revolution....
I was surprised that although this term is not unfamiliar, but it is only seen in textbooks, it was said from the other side's family history.
Fang Ran looked at the eagerness on Korosos' face, that was the expression of talking about what he wanted.
"Listening to my grandfather's recounting of that era and the social structure that was drastically changed because of the birth of the steam engine had a very big impact on me when I was still young,"
It seems to have spanned more than half a century in memory, recalling the mood of sitting on grandfather’s lap that day,
Klossos looked at Fang Ran's eyes with a kind of eager brilliance.
"For the first time, I became interested in something from the heart."
Knowing what that glorious real body was, he looked at Korosos as a fanatic who expounded his faith with others, his tone of voice became unconsciously high and enthusiastic.
"Those textile machines that replaced manpower in factories, those tireless mining trucks in tunnels,"
"The shortened distance train, the regular steamer across the ocean, that evolutionary productivity realizes incredible things that people can't even imagine in the past, machinery replaces manpower, and triggers a huge revolution in human society."
"Following the primitive energies of wind, water, and coal,"
"New energy is pushing the entire civilization forward!"
With a fascinated and high-spirited tone, listening to the eighth-pillar executive expounding the meaning of that era, Fang Ran seemed to be able to imagine the changes brought about by the operation of steam engines in various places at that time.
And to his surprise, the topic went round and round.
Turns it back to energy.
Able to raise, the industrial revolution... Listening to the faintly fanatical words of Korosos at this moment, I feel inexplicably, I always feel that there is something important in these words and I don't understand for a while...
And with a soft smile when he picked up the coffee, the excitement of talking about interest just disappeared, and the gentleness was restored.
Klossos seemed to be a little longing and a little relieved:
"I have thought more than once, if I was also born in that era, it would be nice to be able to witness that kind of world change."
Hearing his emotions, Fang Ran didn’t say anything, just perceiving all the real results of [Balance].
Understand the reason for his betrayal...no,
What is his wish?
Yes... Except for this thing that every participant can't avoid, what can make an A-level give up all the choices before betraying...
"Since you have a relationship with Sixth Pillar, you should have seen her when you came to North America this time,"
Seeing Fang Ran's silence, Kolosos smiled, then raised the coffee in front of him again with a chuckle:
"She should have said something to you."
Maybe it’s been a long time. The years have tempered everyone like them to maturity. After listening to Kolossos, he guessed these all at once.
Without denying, Fang Ran just nodded, recalling the conversation with Trinity at that time.
‘...In the future described by the lord, there is the wish of all of us...’
And not knowing that Fang Ran was thinking back to her words at the time, Kolosos lowered his eyes and looked at the reflection on the coffee.
"I used to think that the queen's boldness, style, wisdom, and all kinds of praise used to describe the saints are already the culmination of being born."
"So I agree with her radiant philosophy, as a faith, I believe in it..."
Even though he has betrayed, he still has an almost devout respect when referring to Vaillinyin.
Yes, but whoever has seen that queen, who wouldn’t...
But perhaps thinking of what he had done, he lightly smiled softly and sighed softly:
"Before I met the leader, I never thought that there could be a figure comparable to that queen in this world."
"Have you seen the leader of the association?"
Hearing what he said when he touched that character, Fang Ran interrupted the question for the first time.
"No, but as long as you have been in contact with the leader or have been selected by the leader, you will know that it is not important,"
"That lord is actually the same as the queen,"
Not surprisingly, he would ask so, Kolosos smiled and said an unexplained answer.
Then put down the coffee and looked at the world outside the window and couldn't help but sigh curiosity:
"I really don't know what kind of pattern and vision the legendary Midnight Immortal is beyond mundane."
Speaking of this, he suddenly laughed and sighed.
"Speaking of which, it is because of your night game that made me the opportunity like today."
Varied...!
Surprised as to why the name of the night game suddenly appeared in his words, Fang Ran just wanted to ask, when he saw Koloss watching him calmly.
"To this day, I also believe that the queen's philosophy is correct. I have never regretted the time I have believed in for the past few decades."
"It's just that in comparison, this place is closer to my imagination,"
"Abandon your lover, abandon your homeland, and let go of everything I had in the past, just because I can't deceive myself what my heart is longing for,"
"So I chose this side."
Listening to his words at the moment, his eyes slowly widened,
‘The world of Night Wars has entered peace and stability for almost a century. No one knows whether the next era will come tomorrow, but at least in the future described by the leader. uukanshu.com has the wish of all of us,’
‘In this way, in fact, the leader and the queen are the same type of people, and the executive officer and the zero rider are also the same type.’
‘It’s just like investing money to become a shareholder of a future consortium...’
‘I choose the future on the side of the leader. ’
Listening to Korosos’ last answer, what Trinity said at the time seemed to echo in her ears.
At the time, he felt that the words that were hazy and incomprehensible, although he still didn't understand all of them, they seemed to become clearer all at once.
Obviously got the answer, but didn’t know what to say for a while,
And looking at such a silent youth in front of him, the young gentleman just smiled gently.
Then I finally recovered, suppressing the chaotic and unclear thoughts, Fang Ran opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
But at this moment, the contact in the communication channel sounded!
In the deep winter of January, unconsciously, a short chat has darkened the sky outside the window.
He stood up in silence for a while, not surprised by his preparation to leave, Koloss just sighed and smiled like talking to himself while holding the coffee.
"What about you, will you be like me?"
Hearing this, Fang Ran looked down and saw that his side face did not seem to be asking, but something that seemed to be lost.
Then before walking out of the cafe, he watched the boss take away his untouched cup of coffee and replace it with a cup of black tea.
Korosos sat alone by the window...
------Off-topic ------
Fortunately, the plot of this one was roughly determined by me a long time ago. Otherwise, if you don’t say the words, this content will kill me. And I found out that my lonely state can't see Natsume's friends account at all, good fellow, I cried twice after watching two episodes (vicissitudes of life)
