Chapter 955 ‘Savior’
When Huaishi and the others came back from the Sky Courtyard, there was another person in the team.
In the wheelchair pushed by Anna, the curious old man kept looking around, not knowing where he was going. He only occasionally muttered and repeated what Russell told him.
go home.
Huai Shi carried a bag of luggage for him on the road, and for more items, Roma would send them directly to the Ivory Tower.
When he stood on the airport runway again, he couldn't help but be filled with emotion. The short journey and so many experiences made him a little tired.
"Where do we go next?"
Russell didn't answer.
He just looked down at the message that popped up on his phone.
After a long while, he slowly raised his head with a strange expression: "Unfortunately, your journey is coming to an end temporarily, Huai Shi."
"it's over?"
After Huai Shi confirmed again and again, he couldn't understand: "What does this mean?"
He had been prepared to be taken into the pit by this guy and become a tool man again, but there was no result yet. Why did it suddenly end without any beginning or end?
You’ve already watched the previous episodes, but you won’t be allowed to watch the finale. Isn’t this a bit too much?
Even if it’s a road movie and it’s so entertaining to the audience, tickets will be refunded!
"There is no way, there are always accidents."
Russell was helpless: "I originally planned to take you to Egypt in the end to see if you can get lucky and ask the Pharaoh to give you a prophecy, but now it seems that you don't have that kind of luck."
He said, "I'll just take Marcus with me for the next thing. You have another job."
"Wait, you don't plan to go to Dongxia?"
Huai Shi also said that when passing by Xinhai, she would go to the Special Affairs Department to trouble her good brother, old master. Why is there no such fun plot?
"Dongxia? Dongxia is the least to worry about."
Russell laughed and pointed at Huai Shi himself: "Isn't their answer that you are here? Not to mention Xuanniao's support, Chu Hai's son, the scheduled leader of the next Social Security Bureau, and Qingdi Don’t ladies also cultivate you more?
The Yuan family and the Lin family also took the lead in placing bets on you. What's more, the Danbo campus has completed in-depth cooperation with Dongxia, and everyone already has common interests.
As long as you still exist, Dongxia's attitude will not change. "
Huai Shi was dumbfounded for a long time, and after thinking about it according to this logic, she suddenly realized... It seemed that she had really become the link between Dong Xia and the Kingdom of Heaven?
"Is this also Xuanniao's prediction?" He was horrified.
"Looking at it with the benefit of hindsight, it may be true, but what Xuanniao from Dongxia likes most is to support new people. He benefits without any expense and has endless benefits.
Moreover, the eye of destiny is not nonsense. Even if you can only look at the overall situation, you can still see your potential... seize the opportunity to invest in a wave of angel investment, and you will definitely make money without losing money. "
When Russell said this, his eyebrows suddenly lit up: "You should also be careful. If you meet any potential sublimator in the future, just stuff something into it. If you don't have anything on hand, just send a notice from our university. It's better than giving money. That’s right! The benefits of going to college for a few years will be remembered for your whole life!”
"Wow, isn't this too utilitarian?" Huai Shi was shocked by the darkness of the adult world.
"Shit, this is called 'giving help in times of need', okay?"
Russell rolled his eyes at him: "But from my point of view, you are doing this very smoothly, and you don't need me to remind you. I'm just telling you that as the secretary of the principal's office, you can sign the admission letter at will. As for how It’s up to you to use it. It doesn’t matter if you have nothing to do, burn something to play with, or go to see the kids off..."
Huai Shi was suspicious: "Aren't you afraid of me messing around?"
"Can you?"
Russell asked back, leaving Huaishi speechless.
"Did you see that, Huai Shi?"
Russell smiled proudly: "Your sense of responsibility is stronger than you thought, much stronger. Maybe your parents set a bad example for you, which made you overcorrect. But people's energy is limited after all. Sometimes being appropriately cold and ruthless is also one of the survival philosophies of adults."
He said: "Before you love other people, you should love yourself more."
"What's this?"
Huai Shi asked unhappily: "Any farewell words?"
"Ha, it doesn't matter if it's not worth mentioning."
Russell shook his head and sat on the steps next to the runway. He didn't care about his custom-made suits and pants. He rolled up his sleeves and smoked a cigar, lazily basking in the sun.
It looks like a bear pushing through the snow and crawling out of the tree hole after winter.
The skinny man sighed in admiration of the spring scenery in front of him.
"Actually, I've been thinking about it," he said, "what should I teach you."
"Huh? Didn't you teach a lot about negotiation and decision-making?"
"That's not the point. At best, it's just a little trick to kill time. It's not really important."
Russell shook his head: "As your teacher, as a former reserve record officer, Huai Shi, I should teach you something.
I want to teach you something really useful and valuable, but I don’t even know how to do it. "
Russell spread his hands and shook his head in self-mockery: "What I have learned and prepared all my life, I have never even had a chance to put it to use, and I have never verified it myself. How can I still teach others?
I am full of intrigues and plans, ambitions and delusions, but you will not be interested. I can teach you how to be a good principal, how to control budgets and costs, how to expand operations and win over people... but I'm afraid you won't be satisfied.
After thinking about it, I can only take you out for a walk, see the world, and introduce you to old friends one by one. I hope your future journey will be smoother.
I thought I would be firm and unhesitating. But as I walked, comparing the achievements of others, I began to feel ashamed, worrying about gains and losses, for fear of encountering some unsolvable problems, which would make me, a teacher, lose face in front of students. "
Huai Shi shook his head: "Don't everyone respect you? Even the emperor of Rome treats you with great courtesy."
"No, that's not respect, that's polite, Huai Shi."
Russell smoked a cigarette and replied calmly: "Respect is for the noble, so they are left to the former Utopia, but politeness is not the case - they are so polite because they don't care.
But it is natural to not care. This is very reasonable, because this is the current situation of the heavenly lineage.
After throwing away the past honors, a declining organization, a divided pedigree, a second-rate thing that is better than the inferiors, but inconspicuous compared to the superiors... After many years, the pain and achievements gradually withered, and they could only clean up the mess in this way. . "
"Wash blood with blood!!!"
A hoarse roar suddenly sounded. In the wheelchair, the old man holding the coffee cup suddenly widened his eyes. The coffee cup in his hand was crushed, and the hot liquid flowed down his fingers and onto his blanket, smearing it out. Like traces of rising flames.
In the sudden rage, the sluggish old man roared into the air with all his strength: "The betrayer will eventually bleed to death!"
"..." Huaishi was sluggish.
Russell, on the other hand, chuckled softly.
He stepped forward, opened Marcus's fingers, took out the fragments of the cup, wiped away the stains, changed the blanket for him, and covered him again.
"Look, there are so many depressing words that even the demented old man can't listen anymore." He patted his old friend on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Marcus, we are still alive, and the future is long - Rome is not Built in a day.”
Gradually, the struggling old man in the wheelchair finally calmed down and returned to the form of clay and wood sculptures.
"Where did we just talk?" Russell asked.
Huai Shi thought for a moment, "Clean up the mess?"
"Yes, clean up the mess."
Russell took out his handkerchief, wiped his fingers, and told him calmly: "This is what we have to do now, and this is the top priority next.
That's why I have to remind you of the dangers involved. "
He said: "Today you are already a sign of the Kingdom of Heaven, and after meeting so many people with me, it will only become more conspicuous. Many people do not want us to continue to exist, but I run fast when I encounter trouble. They There is nothing you can do against me, so I may target you next.
You represent not only yourself, but also the future of the heavenly lineage. "
Whether it is the existence of Huaishi or the Book of Destiny, they are indispensable for the genealogy of the Kingdom of Heaven!
Even more important than everyone imagined...
"Isn't this all your fault?"
Huai Shi glanced sideways, "How can there be any reason to push people to the forefront and then advise them to pay attention to safety?"
"Regret it?"
"No, I'm not planning on jumping over the boat either."
Huai Shi thought for a moment and smiled helplessly: "It's just that the pressure is a bit high. From now on, shouldn't I have to pay attention to my appearance when eating and sleeping to prevent others from taking secret photos?"
"No, quite the opposite."
Russell shook his head and told him: "You need to live more authentically, Huaishi.
Cry when you want, laugh when you want, and leave the so-called idol baggage behind - if you are angry, be angry with thunder, if you are merciful, be merciful.
What others say should be ignored, and there is no need to even accept it with an open mind. If you decide something is necessary, just do it and ignore all the obstacles. "
"..."
There was a long silence, and it was difficult for Huai Shi to understand: "Such a perverse behavior will be over sooner or later, right?"
"Listen up, Huai Shi, there are two types of so-called leaders."
Russell raised two fingers: "One is to lead the confused people to unite and move forward, and the other is the representative and incarnation of everyone.
The former requires authority and strategy, city government and ambition, and even necessary tricks and deception, while the latter is very simple and more difficult. It only requires everyone’s unreserved and unquestioning trust. You are a born queen. A sort of.
You should stand at the highest point, like the sun, and let all those who yearn for you gather towards you.
Maybe you have doubts about your future, but I can tell you responsibly - it is not 'fate' that chooses you, it is you who chooses 'fate'. "
Russell pressed his shoulder and told him word for word: "Huai Shi, this is the only thing I can do for you as a teacher.
If the Utopia must have a savior, why must it be you? "
He said, "Just be yourself, because your 'destiny' belongs to you."
Huaishi froze on the spot.
It was the first time he heard such solemn words from the old guy Russell. He was a little dreamy, but for some reason, he felt much more relaxed.
As if suddenly freed from the huge shadow of the future.
Relieved.
"When I heard you say that, I suddenly wanted to give up my job." Huai Shi sighed softly, "How about going home and making a salted fish?"
"That's okay. Nowadays, heroes are all competing for positions." Russell glanced at him indifferently: ""Without you, wouldn't it be possible to save the world? "
"Come on, I don't know you yet?"
Huai Shi lowered his head and smiled, then stretched out his hand: "Having said so much, where are the arrangements? The chicken blood is all done, where are 007's mission targets?"
"I just like students like you who can always understand what the teacher means."
Russell smiled: "The job this time is very simple, Huai Shi."
When he said this, his smile made people feel cold all over.
Hidden ferocity.
"——After you finish your own journey, you have to finish another person's journey."
There is a person whose life is filled with pain.
He needs a little help.
After getting tired of his poor life, he needs a kind person to help him escape from it all.
forever.
