Zhang Yuan took a drink and put down his glass.

There are indeed a small number of people who go to the spaceship to pursue their ideals; but others just want to be "Wenqing" and show their differences; some people sign up for the spaceship on a whim after they are inspired by various videos as soon as they pat their heads; others just want to have fun

He sighed in his heart. How can there be so many noble people?

But now, the price of regret is too high.

But at this moment, everyone's feeling is almost the same, just like the wound opened by a sharp weapon, and the blood trickles out from it. Want to try to use the hand to block it, but this kind of bitterness or through the fingers, flowing through the skin, recklessly to the outside.

These people have enough courage to criticize. Not everyone is like him, there is not too much care on earth.

Even, even he, in the face of some things, can only turn around cowardly, gritted his teeth to leave.

I don't have the courage to look back.

"Well, if only I had been admitted to graduate school One or two years later. I'm going to hibernate next Wednesday, and now I'm taking an injection and medicine. "

"Yes."

One of the girls couldn't help sobbing.

Then the atmosphere spread to other people, and even some boys couldn't help feeling sad.

There are not many people in the spaceship who have sober authority. Except for Zhang Yuan, these partners are basically arranged to hibernate.

Sometimes, it's not necessarily a good thing to be the last one to give to others.

"Well, don't cry. I'll give you a small gift! From the earth

Zhang Yuan ran back to the dormitory and gave them some of his favorite beef jerky.

What a pain!

He just wanted the food to distract them.

However, chewing the beef jerky of my hometown, the bitterness seems to be more obvious

……

In this way, every day about 5000 people, nearly one percent of the population into hibernation, the total number of people on the spacecraft began to decrease.

With the continuous implementation of the hibernation program, many unnecessary facilities, including various entertainment places and ecological parks, have been closed one after another. The whole ecological environment is just like the leaves on the withered trees, which begin to wither one by one.

But it is necessary. The long and difficult winter can only be safely spent in a special way.

According to the plan of the captain's office, these graduate students can choose to complete their studies on the spaceship, which is a big privilege.

Therefore, Zhang Yuan will continue to work in the spaceship for another year.

In theory, according to his current learning progress, he can graduate with a master's degree in advance. However, SZU has no plan to recruit doctoral students for the time being and will not open a small kitchen for him.

Anyway, idle is idle, there is no way to read a doctor, in the master's stage to stay for a period of time, learn more things is still good.

This day is just a rest day. He and Li Zhendong are studying in the library.

"Well, about 2000 people chose to be deserters Why be a deserter? There is no way out for some things. " Li Zhendong brush mobile phone, saw a not so wonderful news, quite some helplessly said.

"It's still our brothers who have moral integrity!"

"My father gave me a serious warning that if I were a deserter, I would freeze to death outside."

I don't know if he is feeling, admiring or determined.

Zhang Yuan glanced at the news report: about 2000 people, unable to bear such pressure, chose to leave the earth age. From the Europa industrial base, there are spaceships carrying them back to earth civilization. Anyway, all kinds of reasons, mental illness, or physical problems and so on

He shook his head and sighed: "otherwise? Their hearts don't belong here anymore. Force them to stay in the spaceship? impossible. It's better to go back

These people who temporarily repent will be nailed to the stigma of history.

This is worse than deserters. Even if they return to earth again, their life will be over. Whether it is public opinion or policy, the earth civilization has enough means and ability to punish these cowards.

At this time, Zhang Yuan suddenly received a phone call.

"Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, no good!"

"I have bad news for you..." It's Ye Kaifu's voice. For some reason, he deliberately lowered his voice.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Yuan's heart clapped.

“……” Ye Kaifu hesitated and couldn't speak for a long time.

Zhang Yuan found that ye Kaifu's tone was not very beautiful and his heart beat faster.

He accentuated, "what's the matter? Someone copied my paper again? "

"No, it's not I've just passed area a and I heard a piece of gossip"The painter you know, Elvin, is dead!"

"Death Dead? " Zhang Yuan's pupils were slightly enlarged, and his hair was erect.

How is that possible?

"Suicide..."

“…… Why? "

"I don't know."

Zhang Yuan sat in his seat. The artist Elvin was not very close to himself, but he had a little friendship. He was a friend. Why did he suddenly die?

Vaguely, there seems to be a little guess.

The sudden bad news made him a little out of breath.

A few days ago, there were people who said they were laughing. Suddenly, they died and never saw them again.

It's a subtle feeling.

After a while, his watch sent a message. Looking down, it was Lin Xuan, his superior liaison officer, who asked him to go to area A.

Too late to think, Zhang Yuan got up and ran in a hurry.

"Do you have anything to do with Mr. Elvin when you asked me to come?" Zhang Yuan said so as soon as he saw her.

There was no smile on Lin Xuan's face. She sighed: "yes, the painter committed suicide. He has some relics to hand over to you. Please follow me

Zhang Yuan followed her and walked quickly to area A.

In the distance, I saw a white cloth, and below it was Elvin's body, surrounded by a group of serious soldiers.

The captain and several senior officials are frowning to discuss how to deal with the matter.

A nearby officer said to Zhang Yuan, "we found that your friend died in the star library. The cause of death was asphyxia. Due to the illegal operation of opening the glass helmet, oxygen leaked out... "

"When we get the automatic alarm from the spacesuit and rush there, it's too late."

"Can I see him?" Zhang Yuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said softly.

"You, please."

Pushing aside the white cloth, Zhang Yuan saw the dead painter.

It was not the first time that he had witnessed death, but at this moment, his heart beat twice.
