Little Mushroom

"Don't walk gently into that good night--"

An Zhe and Colin walked in a long and narrow white hallway. Aloud aloud reading came from the side, a kind of naive voice and a gathering, shaking the echoes around them.

This is the sixth floor of the Garden of Eden. The man who took them into the room was a 30-year-old man named Lin Zuo. He wore a white shirt and a pair of fine gold-framed glasses and looked gentle.

The two of them were taken to the office, Lin Zuo said, "OK here?"

Colin said: "Very good."

Lin Zuodao: "The conditions in the main city are better than in the outer city."

Anzhe realized it. At least when he was in the outer city, he never thought of a giant building like Eden in the world.

In this corridor, except for the office, there are ten rooms, five are classrooms, and the other five are children's dormitories. The dormitories are full of small beds, each of which can accommodate 100 people. According to Lin Zuo, this floor of the Garden of Eden consists of ten such corridors, and the children on each floor are the same age. In other words, there are 4,000 human cubs close to six years old.

"After the children reach the age of six, most of them will be sent to the outer city for adoption. But now that the outer city has fallen, the main city has to undertake their education work after the age of six, and there are not enough people. Fortunately, you are here." Lin Zuodao : "Baby babies under the age of six dare not give it to newcomers, so this group of children will be assigned to you after the age of six."

An Zhe said, "Okay."

"No further educational arrangements have yet come out. Can you two follow me first to get familiar with the process?"

Colin replied, "Yes."

Lin Zuowei smiled and took a few manuals from the bookshelf: "This is the textbook and the rotation arrangement. Please take a look first and ask me if you have any questions."

An Zhe took his share.

There are two education courses here, one is language and literature, and the other is mathematics and logic. He got a language and literature textbook. Six-year-olds have mastered basic pinyin and grammar, and textbooks are short fables or poems. Anze learns these things very well, so Anzhe also has no syllables or words that he doesn't recognize.

After turning over the textbook, it's time to go to class. An Zhe moved a set of tables and chairs to sit in the corner of the back of the classroom. He held a table of children's seating. In addition to the task Lin Zuo gave him, he also recorded the children's attendance. If there is a child's behavior of actively answering questions or asking questions, you need to add points, listen to each other, or take irrelevant actions and deduct points.

The cubs turned around and looked at him as they sat in. The pups' skin is very soft and their eyes are simple and clean. They are wearing uniform white clothes, black shorts, and similar short hair styles, and it is impossible to distinguish between men and women for a while. They whispered a few times, continued to look at Anzhe, and Anzhe smiled at them.

——So a few of the cubs also smiled at him. One of them blinked and his eyelashes flickered a few times and asked, "Are you a new teacher?"

An Zhe said: "Yes."

"Wow." The other cub whispered, "You are so pretty."

An Zhe said, "Thank you."

The cub said, "You're welcome."

Another cub asked, "What's your name?"

An Zhe said his name.

The cubs cried, "My name is Bai Nan."

"My name is Jisha."

"My name is Du Orange."

Of course, there are some indifferent cubs, such as the one in the corner, who turned to look at him.

But the excitement beside An Zhe did not last long, because Lin Zuo came in.

The pups were immediately dispersed from Anzhe and returned to their seats. Lin Zuo looked around for a week, and after confirming that no one was absent, he began to lecture.

He was talking about the poem that An Zhe had heard in the corridor before, and the last one in the textbook-it was more complicated than anything else. It was when he walked in the corridor that he heard a certain classroom. The children in the recitation.

The pups first read the poem from beginning to end.

"Don't walk gently into that good night.

We should burn at sunset.

Anger, anger repels the passing of time. "

"Although wise men know that darkness will come.

Although their words could no longer flash lightning.

Don't walk gently into that good night. "

...

After reading it again, Lin Zuo stood at the podium and asked, "Is there anything I don't understand?"

A cub raised his hand, An Zhebi compared to the seating chart, this is the cub named Bai Nan.

Bai Nan said, "I don't understand anything."

The other cubs laughed.

Lin Zuo: "Narrow the scope of questions."

"That ..." Bai Nan scratched his back, hesitating in a tone: "Why can't you walk gently into the evening?"

An Zhe added a point to Bai Nan on the form, then looked at Lin Zuo and waited for his answer.

He didn't know the answer to Bai Nan's question. In the abyss, at the human base, he has seen too many times that the twilight gradually replaces the day, and every night it landed on the ground so gently and could not resist.

Lin Zuo's eyes glanced at them, his lips tightened slightly, a slightly serious arc.

"This is the last text of your course this year," he said. "It has a different meaning from all the previous texts, although it may be a bit difficult for you."

He turned, wrote the words "don't walk gently into that good night" on the whiteboard, and turned back to the pups under the stage.

"This is a poem composed of metaphors and symbols," Lin Zuo said, "don't walk gently into that good night, it means: don't accept meekness."

An Zhe opened his eyes slightly, and he wrote this down in his notebook.

Later, Lin Zuo began to talk from the first sentence, An Zhe took notes carefully.

After speaking, the pups read the poems again and again.

"On this sad mountain.

Curse me and bless me with your tears.

Don't walk gently into that good night. "

The pen tip of An Zheji's notes paused. He looked up out of the bright window, not far away, the twin towers shone brightly in the sun, the city slowly unfolded, and the edge disappeared into the blue sky. He knew that the city had not yet come into that good night, and was trying not to walk into that good night.

After a day of classes, Lin Zuo was off work and handed the children over to him and Colin. They have to take the cubs to dinner with the life teacher, and then gather in the dormitory to watch today's news. In order to enhance the relationship with the cubs, An Zhe must answer their confusion about the news at any time. After the news is released, it can be off work .

The pups, who are full of food, are very mentally active, they are arguing and talking in the corridor. Anzhe felt that there were 10,000 mosquitoes screaming in his ear, but he tolerated these human cubs. Even in the abyss, the monster would treat his cubs gently-but only to their own.

Until the news time came, the life teacher took out the scoring table, and the cubs quieted after seeing the table. They spontaneously made a circle beside the large projection screen and sat in the middle.

He looked at the screen, and suddenly felt something touched his finger, and looked down, it was the cub named Bai Nan who was sitting next to him and grabbed his finger with his finger.

An Zhe did not have much physical contact with humans. He remembered that he bumped into Lu Yan and his head was hurt by the badge on Lu Ying ’s chest--but the body of the cub is different from Lu Ying. Soft.

-Like spores, the human cub stayed quietly beside him, just like spores remained quietly in his body, An Zhan obtained a false peace through this fantasy, and touched Bai Nan's head again.

So Bai Nan put together again, leaning against him tightly, his arms clasped his arms. At the same time another cub named Jisha also leaned in. This cub looks like a girl. Immediately afterwards, the cubs wriggled towards him, and Colin on the side was also loved by several cubs. It was the nature of all biological cubs to get close to adult individuals.

But there was still a lonely cub sitting cross-legged in his position, unmoved. An Zhe remembered his name, Sinan. Sinan never asked questions when he was in class. He glanced at Sinan and smiled at him, Sinan turned away and turned his eyes back to the big screen.

The news begins.

"After the bombing in Zone 6, the number of monsters in the outer city decreased significantly. The military ’s second air formation took off at 6 am this morning and landed in Zone 1 to support the outer city. Colonel Lu Ying of the trial court will direct the existing team to carry out the recovery operation of the center ... "

Anzhe suddenly heard the familiar name. Since he came to the main city, he has not seen Lu Yan. The original person has gone to the outer city again.

Bai Nan suddenly whispered, "It's the judge."

Ji Sha said: "So scared."

An Zhe asked them, "What's wrong?"

Nan Nan said: "The news often says how many people the judges executed."

Ji Sha: "He often goes to the abyss. The abyss is so scary."

An Zhe touched her head: "Don't be afraid."

Jisha wrinkled her nose.

"You are human and the judge will protect you."

Jisha continued to wrinkle her nose.

Bai Nan asked, "Have the teacher ever met the judge?"

At the same time, the news said: "The battlefield reporter is connected below."

The camera flashed. The reporter was interviewing an officer in a black uniform. At the first moment of the figure's appearance, An Zhe thought he was Lu Yan, but the next moment he discovered that he was not. The man was the young judge next to Lu Yan. His name was shown on it, Tsering.

He answered Bai Nan's question softly: "I've seen it."

"Then how does he look? He didn't show his face in the news." Bai Nan asked.

Jisha also interjected: "Is he very fierce?"

The pups all looked here, and seemed to be interested in the issue.

"He ..." An Zhe recalled Lu Yan's appearance, and tried to use human aesthetics to judge: "He is a bit fierce, but he looks good."

"What does he look like?"

The problems of the pups are more difficult than one, and An Zhe doesn't know how to compare them. While thinking hard, he suddenly remembered the color of Lu Yan's eyes. That kind of cold dark green-like the place where the aurora germinated in the sky.

He said, "Like ... Aurora."

The cubs were puzzled.

At this time, An Zhe saw that the life teacher gave him a thumbs up.

"You deserve to be taught language and literature." Life teacher said.

An Zhe did not know whether the teacher of life praised or criticized him. He just pursed his lips and smiled.

The days in the main city passed like this. Unconsciously, he had lived here for almost a month.

Eden's life was very peaceful. At most, there was a dispute between the cubs. There were several times when he walked under the twin towers, but both towers required a swipe to enter. He did not have the right to enter. In order to see the spore, he must first know where it is in the lighthouse, and he must be able to enter the lighthouse. Now these two goals are far away.

However, at the same time, the news uploaded by the news has become more and more exciting. Just ten days ago, the land school took the team to the core of the dispersal center and formulated a detailed action plan. The news specifically emphasized that because The Trial Chamber regularly drills into the abyss, and they are extremely experienced in dealing with monsters.

Five days ago, the army officially recovered the dispersal center, cleared the remaining monsters, and carried out large-scale cleanup and disinfection. A team dispatched by the lighthouse entered and began repairing the equipment.

Today, An Zhe originally planned to continue to listen to the news, but this day Lin Zuo had to work the night shift, so he had to get off work early.

At six o'clock in summer, the sky was still very bright, only the western sky slowly spread a thin layer of gray-blue. An Zhe swipes, the glass door of the "Eden" building slowly slides open, he goes out, and Colin also goes out of work in advance and goes out.

It's not regular off-hours, and there are few pedestrians on the road. He walks through the streets and takes a short approach to the ferry station. He and Colin looked at each other with disgust, so even if they had to go one way, they were far apart one after the other.

The world was originally very quiet, but just as he was about to cross this small street and set foot on a wide road, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him. Then, a white shadow in Yuguang passed him-a short An Zhe's white figure frowned-it was a little girl, he was sure.

The children, boys and girls in his class are very similar in appearance and appearance, but they are also five or six years old. The child is undoubtedly a girl in front of her-she has a particularly slender body, black hair with loose shoulders, and a pair of Little white tulle.

The road is ahead, and a car is driving on it, An Zhe said, "Be careful!"

Just as a car whistled across the road, the girl seemed to be frightened and stopped abruptly. She panted shortly, looking back at Anzhe, her eyes frightened, and she seemed very shocked.

An Zhe said, "Do you need my help? Are you from the Garden of Eden?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as his words fell to the ground, the girl's state of tension became worse. She shook her head suddenly and rushed straight towards the road!

An Zhe quickly followed.

——At this moment, a black figure appeared at the corner of the street. The action was crisp and straight, and she stood straight in front of the girl. The girl stepped forward. The man leaned down and hugged her. A few steps back, the girl struggled violently. A few times, but couldn't help it.

And Anzhe who just arrived here: "..."

The four eyes are opposite.

An Zhe: "... Hello."

Lu Yan: "Hello."

An Zhe wanted to ask him if the dispersal center had recovered, but at this moment he had more important things to say, and it had been brewing for a month.

On the train that day, Lu Yan was in a bad mood-in fact, he was not very happy, and An Zhe speculated why-few people in the world could reasonably look at the colonel.

Combined with the colonel's move to save the little **** the dangerous road just now, that sentence is even more justified.

"Colonel," he said.

Lu Yan seemed to raise his eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong?"

The girl was still struggling. She had a dull look, her hair was messy, and she looked a little bit wrong.

So that sentence was corroborated again, An Zhe looked at the little girl, and then looked back at Lu Yan, and said sincerely, "You are a good person."

The colonel really raised his eyebrows this time, with a slight smile on the corners of his lips. This was not a sincere smile. It was as though he heard An Zhe say something obvious.

The next second, he stopped the little girl with one hand and picked up the communicator with one hand: "Intersection 7, the target has been captured."

-Say nothing, and glanced at Anzhe a little.

An Zhe: "...?"

The author has something to say: after all, it was wrong to pay Liao!

The opening poem is "Don't walk gently into that good night" by DylanThomas, with changes.

Not spores.
