Chapter 1583

It was a long dream.

Once long enough for her to think that she would never wake up.

It was a dark room. The floor was covered with bottle caps and glass slag left by broken wine bottles. In one corner of the dirty room, there was a broken vase and a torn and broken picture frame.

The rotten windows were covered with withered vines, and the cross frames were like tombstones.

Children can be seen playing outside the window, but everything there seems to have nothing to do with the world inside.

Of course, in this quagmire like whirlpool, there is not nothing beautiful left.

At least, there is the girl sitting at the desk.

The petite and thin body is not in line with everything here. It's very painful to look at it, but the tender and beautiful side face doesn't write too much sadness. Sapphire's eyes are full of a reassuring peace, as if everything here has nothing to do with her. Her whole heart is immersed in the slightly yellow book in her hand.

Although she couldn't see the handwriting, Vera remembered the name of the book clearly.

“EGA……”

Fundamentals of Algebraic Geometry

Grotendic's masterpiece, the Bible of algebraic geometry!

At the same time, it's the last birthday gift from her mother who left the family.

Her lips trembled slightly, and Willa couldn't help pronouncing the three letters.

Perhaps I heard the soft recitation. The girl at the desk raised her sapphire eyes and looked at her quietly.

For a moment, Willa's pupils contracted.

In front of her is like a mirror leading to the past. What is reflected in that mirror is the cowardly, evasive and frightened self in childhood

Hesitating to say something, the girl sitting at her desk, who was herself in her childhood, suddenly opened her mouth.

"Unbelievable, how did you find me?"

"I -"

Vera was about to say something, but just then there was a loud smash at the door behind her.

It was as moving as Donetsk's cannon, not just the floor and the windows, but the whole room trembled.

Looking at the frightened expression on her face, the girl curled up in a group subconsciously. Willa's courage, which was born from nowhere, bravely stepped forward over the glass slag on the ground and grabbed her shoulder.

"Come with me, I'll take you out of here!"

The girl helplessly raised her head and looked at the elder sister in front of her, who was carved in a mold with herself.

"But This is my home. Apart from here, where else can I go? "

"You can go anywhere, across the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Go to a place called Princeton, where you will find the hero who can save you. "

The girl's eyes flickered with a ray of hope. Although it was very weak, it was so bright in the dark.

"Like in fairy tales?"

Mou son gently shook, silent for a moment of Vera, forced to nod.

"Yes He will wake you up from your nightmare like a prince. "

"But it's a fairy tale after all..."

Willa was going to say something else, but the little girl suddenly raised her index finger and gently touched her lips.

There was a soft smile on her face, said the little girl, about seven or eight years old, in a soft voice.

"Thank you for coming to see me You must be a brave person to find here, at least braver than me. "

"I believe that such you, even in the face of the greatest difficulties, will be able to cross it to the other side of your mind."

"Go quickly."

Unexpectedly, I was comforted in the end.

Leng Leng to look at the little girl in front of her eyes, Willa unconsciously released her hands holding her delicate shoulder.

Almost in an instant, the wooden door behind her suddenly collapsed.

With the splashing of sawdust, monsters like nightmares burst in from the door.

From the smoke, Vera saw the face that made her afraid, angry and trembling.

But this time, instead of flinching, she squeezed her right fist and stood there bravely.

I don't know where the inexplicable peace of mind comes from, but it is guarded by her as if it were real.

She believed that she would be OK, as if there had been a voice in her ear, as if telling her.

It seemed that she was surprised by her courage. The monster's face showed a surprised expression, but the expression soon turned into a cruel smile and walked towards her with a fist.

However, in this moment, a miracle suddenly happened.A ray of light went over the curtains and lit the whole dark room. The monster seemed to be hit by something. It fell back with a wail, and the sound of falling sounded like a broken wine bottle, which turned into a mass of fragments.

At the same time, in the light of that light, everything around began to collapse.

Whether it's the house, or the windows, or the glass fragments on the floor, or the book on the desk

Everything is like a collapsed sand dune, including Willa, who stands in the middle of the vortex, falling into the dark and free together.

I don't know how long I've been in the dark.

Just as she felt her consciousness was crumbling and almost going to sleep, there was a slight sound in her ear.

It's the sound of breathing.

However, it did not blow on her ear, but gently on a piece of glass.

Somehow, at this moment, she is lying in a crystal coffin like a princess in a fairy tale.

Gradually, the outline reflected on the crystal coffin became clear.

Surprisingly, it was not the handsome and brave prince in the fairy tale who came to the crystal coffin, but a beautiful princess.

Yes, compared with an ugly duckling like herself, she is undoubtedly more like a princess. Her long black hair hangs quietly behind her, and there is an indescribable elegance between her actions.

Vera knows it's a dream, everything in front of her is her imagination, but she still tries to see what she looks like.

But the dream is a dream after all. All the good things and sufferings here are like an opaque gauze. She is like a deer wandering in the forest. She can't see anything except the occasional mottling through the shade.

"Who are you..."

As if I didn't hear her voice, the princess, who was one layer away from her, said softly in the sweet voice of an organ.

"Although we may have met a few times before, it's probably the first time for us to have such face-to-face communication."

Looking at herself in the crystal coffin, the mysterious woman continued.

“…… I used to hear him talk about you a long time ago. He once told me that you are his favorite student and the most gifted of all the students he has taught. "

Willa opened her mouth to say something, but she couldn't say a word.

Always felt that when she was sleeping, there were many things that she didn't know.

And the uncertainty made her feel a little nervous.

"In addition to your story, it's also about Princeton and so many people. From his tone, I can clearly feel that he is proud of the students he taught and the people he helped. "

"In fact, I envy him a lot of times. I can live such a pure life. As for when this feeling has become admiration, maybe I can't even tell myself clearly. "

"But one thing is for sure, I love him very much. When he promised me to send me a star and leave a legend about us on it, you can't imagine how moved I was at that time."

A faint smile appeared on the misty face.

It's like falling into some kind of beautiful memory, with a sweet smile, but also her voice with a casual relaxed and cunning.

"Of course Maybe you can imagine. "

"A woman's intuition tells me that your view of him may not be as simple as it seems. But now it seems that all of these are afterwords. "

Said, the relaxed voice, suddenly with a trace of loneliness, and even sad.

"Later, he went to a far away place."

Time seems to freeze at this moment.

Vera suddenly felt that her heart beat was just like being stuck by something, and a little pain came out of her soul.

"It's a place more distant than any distance and time. Although I thought of following him, I didn't do it in the end."

"He's gone, but I'm still here."

"He still has a lot of things he wants to do that can't be completed, and I will do the rest for him. Whether it's about that part of the world or my promise... "

Speaking of this, the woman was silent for a while, and suddenly a free and easy smile appeared on her fuzzy face.

"Although it's self righteous, but He's probably a very important person for you. "

"If I mean if it's one in ten thousand. "

"If there is any misunderstanding in this, he has never been to Mars in fact, and he has not met any accidents there at all. Just because he is too tired, he wants to have a rest in anonymity for a while, so he hides himself quietly At that time, I was no longer in the world, and you just woke up. ""I hope you can take care of that fool."

“…… However, that kind of thing that can happen in fairy tales is unlikely in reality

The tiny fingertip lingered for a moment in Vera's face. When she was about to reach for the hand and ask what had happened during her sleeping time, everything in front of her suddenly disappeared.

Suddenly, the layer upon layer surrounded her in the heavy fog, suddenly shot a meter of sunshine, let her unconsciously close the eyelashes.

In the moment of opening and closing her eyes, she opened her blindfold eyes again and saw the ceiling lamp, the dense white fog rising around her, and the happy faces.

It's like drilling out of the deep sea. With a touch of cold and noisy waves, the five senses cut off hit from all directions and wrapped her up.

“…… It was a moment. "

Though the moment was as long as a lifetime, she almost forgot the warm feeling.

Tears roll from the corner of the eye unconsciously.

The scalding on the forehead, just as it happened a minute ago, is like a century away.

She tried to turn her face sideways and open her eyes which were blurred by tears. She wanted to find the familiar face from the side and the door.

"Land boat..."

But there was nothing but the cries of doctors and nurses

"Unfreezing succeeded!"

"She's awake!"
