"She's in my body!"
John shuddered when he heard these words, just like when he was young and accidentally watched a horror movie when the old world was not destroyed.
However, he soon discovered that this was not the point.
The point is that the captain actually responded to Shang Jianyao's words!
Before that, the part of the humans that John and Shang Jianyao met in a state of chaos and madness could not communicate at all, even if not all of them did not say a word and remained silent, they just said something to themselves, almost murmuring, unlike the captain who "asked and answered".
Of course, because he was hiding most of the time, John actually encountered very few "chaotic people", and he couldn't be sure if the captain's current state was special.
This is not what he wants to know, he only cares about one thing:
Does this mean that the captain can still communicate, and he and the future person can "discuss" some information from his mouth?
John calmed down, looked at the captain who was putting on a courtship posture in the middle of nowhere, and asked tentatively:
"Do you know what the abnormality at night comes from?"
Ugh, the cold wind of the winter night poured in through the open window, making John shrink back.
The captain still knelt there on one knee, repeating the previous "lament":
"Oh, my goddess!
"Please accept my love!"
This...... John frowned.
Shang Jianyao next to him laughed:
"You are not charming enough."
"What does this have to do with charm?" John muttered.
He initially suspected that only topics related to "goddesses" could make the captain respond reflexively in a state of confusion, madness, and unconsciousness.
This realization disappointed John.
He thought for a while and said to Shang Jianyao:
"Haven't you always wanted to figure out the reason behind this?
"We are now working together to search this room, hoping to gain some results."
"Okay!" Shang Jianyao couldn't wait.
John no longer cared about the center of the room, sometimes kneeling, lamenting courtship, sometimes standing up, pacing back and forth, and the captain, who was in tears, went directly to the red desk with books and papers.
Those books were popular before the destruction of the Old World, and John himself had read a few and knew that there was nothing wrong with them.
However, he still carefully picked up the books and shook them down to see if there was anything in them.
This shake really shook out some items.
They floated down and scattered on the table, which were a few slightly yellowed photos.
The main character of these photos is the same person, a rather beautiful woman.
She has long brown hair, blue eyes as charming as lakes, and a smile always on her face, whether sweet or sunny.
In different photos, the age of this woman is different, the youngest is seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a cheerleading uniform, quite hot, the largest is twenty-five or six, wearing a hat, wearing a short skirt, and swinging a racket.
"This is the captain's goddess?"
Shang Jianyao's voice suddenly sounded behind John.
John was startled, turned his body halfway, and reproached:
"Why don't you walk without sound?"
"Because there is a carpet here." Shang Jianyao explained sincerely.
He set his sights on those photos again, and said curiously and excitedly:
"Crush for many years?"
Shang Jianyao's tone reminded John of a cousin of herself, and the old era was not yet destroyed, and she was in such a state when she discussed certain stars.
John looked at the photos carefully, subconsciously looked at the captain, and cursed in a low voice:
"Beast!"
"Why?" Shang Jianyao asked with shining eyes.
John pointed to the pictures and said:
"This young lady is so young, he actually calls others goddesses!
"Doesn't he look at his age?"
At least forty or so!
Shang Jianyao seemed a little disappointed that the reason for the "beast" was not strong enough, so he asked instead:
"Are you a little jealous?"
"This, what's there to be jealous of?" John asked stubbornly.
Frankly, he was a little jealous, because the women in the photos were as beautiful as stars, and she and the captain didn't know if there was any substantial emotional entanglement.
This made John, who was not very outgoing and lacked female friends before the destruction of the old world, feel sour.
"Yes." Shang Jianyao didn't care if the other party was really jealous, pointed to the photo and said, "Judging from the degree of yellowing, it should be some years."
John suddenly woke up: these photos should have been taken before the destruction of the old era, when the captain was only in his twenties.
Moreover, the age of the women in those photos is progressive, when she was the youngest, the captain might not be even twenty, and there was no problem of seniority difference or love between old and young.
Thinking of this, John unconsciously weaved a story in his heart and said:
"The captain has a crush on this young lady, and the other party already has a boyfriend, he can only secretly collect photos and fantasize in private, and when the old era is destroyed, the two have no contact at all, so after the captain fell into a state of chaos, he hallucinated and expressed the pent-up desire in his heart?"
"Then how do you explain that the captain said, 'She's in my body'?" Shang Jianyao was very interested in this topic.
John unconsciously fell into the atmosphere of discussion:
"Maybe this is a fantasy picture, in our culture, we like to describe love by saying that both sides are spirited and physically blended."
"I don't think so." Shang Jianyao shook his head.
When John looked at him, Shang Jianyao continued:
"First of all, the two are indeed not a couple, otherwise the captain would not only have a single photo of each other, but not a group photo of the two of them."
"Yes!" Only then did John react.
In the future, people's reasoning ability of "business" is still very strong.
Shang Jianyao further imagined:
"After the destruction of the old world, the captain who had a crush on her tried to rescue her, but found that she was mixed with other men, sharing joys and sorrows and supporting each other.
"Under strong jealousy and disappointment, in a doomsday environment that lost order, the enraged captain acted irrationally, and he killed his goddess and her boyfriend."
Speaking of this, Shang Jianyao showed a gloomy smile:
"After some time, due to lack of food, the captain set his sights on the corpse of his goddess......
"That's why he said that the goddess was in his body."
John was stunned and inexplicably nauseous.
He was quite lucky, from the destruction of the old era to the present, he could always find food, the longest hunger period did not exceed three days, and he did not need to do those cruel and terrifying things.
"Yours, what is your basis?" John felt that the situation described by "Shang" was too dramatic, too dramatic and dark.
Shang Jianyao said in a teaching tone:
"This is called bold assumptions!"
"......" John had nothing to say.
However, the captain's sentence "She is in my body" always made John feel that the room was swishing, and it was difficult to completely deny Shang Jianyao's "speculation".
He said slowly:
"Continue to look for clues."
The two separated again, went their separate ways, and looked at various things in the room.
In the process, John became a little jealous again.
There is also a wine storage room in the room, which contains many famous wines from the old era.
"Damn, he'd rather waste energy in these places than turn on the air conditioning system!" John complained.
This allows their passengers and crew to enjoy the "charm" of the combination of "winter" and "sea breeze" at night.
"Maybe he has thick fat and is not afraid of the cold." Shang Jianyao returned here at some point.
John glanced at the captain's obviously rounder body and accepted this explanation.
After the destruction of the old era, when there was a great shortage of food, the captain could have such a figure, which showed that he had never lacked resources much.
"Did you find any clues?" John was concerned about the topic.
Shang Jianyao asked seriously:
"He loves to eat candy, does it count if the consumption of tissues is higher than normal?"
"No." John replied without hesitation.
The loss on his face could no longer be hidden, because he had not found any useful clues on his side, and the captain's room was almost searched.
Shang Jianyao's expression became serious:
"I think I still have to ask him directly."
"He" refers to the captain.
John was infected by that seriousness and nodded slowly and said:
"You can try it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Jianyao turned his body excitedly and asked loudly:
"Why do you think she is your goddess?"
Isn't it looking for clues to abnormalities at night? John couldn't keep up with Shang Jianyao's thinking at all.
A smile appeared on the captain's face, who had just finished a chant:
"She is as beautiful as the morning sun and as kind as a pure angel.
"I once had a serious illness and needed a bone marrow transplant, and she stood up just as a match."
It turns out that this is the correct explanation of the phrase "she is in my body"...... John found that both he and Shang Jianyao had thought wrong.
It was far less terrifying, and it didn't involve the communion of spirit and flesh.
"What an angel!" Shang Jianyao echoed the captain's words.
He didn't ask what the night anomaly came from.
The captain's eyes were obviously confused, as if he was in an unconscious state.
He muttered to himself:
"She is also the captain of the cheerleading team, she is cheerful, enthusiastic, good at tennis and dancing......
"Awesome!" Shang Jianyao praised.
The captain continued:
"She also has a good mind, and she is by no means one of those women who only have breasts and faces.
"She published a paper when she was in college, and after graduation, she chose to work as a researcher in the laboratory......"
Shang Jianyao's smiling expression changed suddenly.
He raised his hand and rubbed his chin, and asked thoughtfully:
"Researcher?"
