Blackstone Code

The car was still moving forward slowly, and the atmosphere in the car was a bit dull.

Catherine and the professor have known each other for more than ten years and their relationship is very good.

The professor is both her teacher and her most reliable friend, and he will take care of her in life, just like her relatives.

When the professor said she wanted to stay, she did not persuade her because it was the professor's own choice.

But she still had to express some of her thoughts.

"The new railway only builds lines within the federation, which means that once we are separated, it will be difficult to see each other again."

Catherine looked at the professor, who seemed very calm now. She did not avoid the question, "Catherine, I understand what you mean, but think about it, I am already sixty years old."

"I will be almost seventy years old in more than ten years. When it comes, how many years can I live?"

"Maybe three to five years, ten years at most, this is my limit."

"So for me, it doesn't make a big difference to go to the equator or not."

"I would rather lie here than die in Nagaril!"

Catherine showed some smile, "I never knew you were such a traditional person!"

The professor has always shown a sense of trends that can keep pace with the times. No matter what new topics or things are, it is not difficult for her.

She accepts new things very quickly. If her age is not considered, just judging from her behavior, she looks like someone in her twenties or thirties.

The professor also showed some smile, "My father, mother, my grandparents, they are all here, where else can I go?"

The professor has no children. She didn't want them when she was young. Now that she is older, she has a desire for family affection in her heart when she is alone.

Loneliness will make her more dependent on family affection. Her kindness to Catherine actually transfers her desire for family affection to Catherine.

She regarded Catherine as her daughter and a relative, that's why she was so kind to her.

It's not just Lynch.

Many people are like this. When they are young, when they can do many things, they feel that they are enough and their children are just a burden.

But by the time they realize how wrong they were, there is no chance to correct the mistake.

This topic seemed very sad. Catherine held the professor's hand and said, "If this is the case, I will miss you."

The professor also held her hand and said, "Thank God, at least we still have more than ten years."

After returning to the villa, Catherine called Lynch. Some of the words the professor said and her decision made Catherine want to find someone to say something.

Lynch came quickly. When he arrived, Catherine had already drank two glasses of wine and was a little tipsy.

"In a bad mood?" Lynch walked to Catherine and sat down. He picked up the wine bottle and looked at it. Fruit wine with more than 20 degrees of alcohol was very deceptive.

Because the sweetness and fruity taste will dilute the taste of alcohol, making people drink too much without realizing it.

The sales of fruit wine in bars have always been good because it has many applications.

Catherine leaned lazily on the back of the sofa and rolled her legs. "The professor said she plans to stay."

Lynch raised his eyebrows, "It's a bit surprising, but not very strong."

Catherine looked at him, "Do you think there will be a chance to come back after we leave?"

Lynch thought carefully for a while and shook his head, "Although I may have some illusions, my experience tells me that the possibility of us coming back is very slim."

"Before the Ice Age, we couldn't build a stable railway on the sea, and even if we built it, when the temperature dropped and the seawater froze, the railway would be destroyed by the ice."

“When the Ice Age comes, it’s even less likely that we will be able to build a railway on the glacier, even with people!”

"The cold air at high altitudes prevents planes from flying too far. This answer may not meet your requirements, but I have to say that we can't come back."

Catherine sighed, "Many people in Congress have been discussing this issue recently, whether to leave or to stay. Although there are still many years left, everyone seems a little anxious."

"I was determined to leave at first, but..."

She picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "It's a bit...unpleasant to live in a strange environment and let everything here become memories."

Lynch is very open-minded, "But we can live and live well."

"Catherine, whether it's happiness, sadness, sadness, pain, whatever emotion it is, it's all based on a very important point -"

"We're still alive!"

"If we die, then our reason, madness, love, and pain will become meaningless things in the past."

"It, they, completely cease to exist. People will not care about your past, nor will they care about the future, because you no longer exist."

"Only by living and living well can we have the right to express our own views on the environment in which we live, the past, the present and the future."

"The premise of everything is that we have to live."

"I don't comment on the professor's choice. That is her own decision."

"Just like I will not comment on the choices of those members of Congress, each of them has his own ideas, and as the actual vested interests and the supreme ruler of the refuge, we should not have such emotions, at least not now should."

"I'll talk to the professor again, but I think we should be prepared to respect all her decisions!"

Catherine took another sip. She was obviously a little drunk, and she was talking about things that had happened in the past.

Things about childhood, schooling, high school, the two most difficult years for Lynch when he entered society, and things about going to college and continuing his studies.

Memories are precious and the most valuable part of a person's spiritual wealth!

Lynch coaxed Catherine to sleep like a child, and then left after she fell asleep.

There are people here to take care of Catherine and make sure she doesn't choke to death by vomiting in the middle of the night, which sounds funny, but some idiots do that every year.

The next morning while Lynch was having breakfast, Catherine called.

"Did I say anything last night that seemed not smart enough?" She blushed as she remembered that she said a lot of things last night, including how she defeated those young cousins ​​who "occupied" Lynch.

Lynch laughed twice, "I can't remember exactly. You talked too much. I'm not sure which sentence or paragraph you said."

Catherine suddenly had the idea of ​​digging a hole and burying herself in it. It was so damn embarrassing!

She took two deep breaths and said, "I'm drunk..."

"So you should forget what you should forget!"

"Don't forget to talk to the professor. If possible, I hope she can come with us."

After hanging up the phone, Lynch returned to the dining room and continued to read the newspaper and eat breakfast.

Penny really couldn't wait for the follow-up plot of "Shelter", so she went to find the screenwriter as Lynch said and wanted to know the follow-up plot.

What made her very disappointed was that the screenwriter did not know the subsequent plot——

It should be noted here that due to "Shelter"'s dominance in ratings, the producers and TV stations are willing to make it more economical.

So the original screenwriters became the current screenwriter team. Each screenwriter needs to come up with his own script, and then based on internal voting, choose one person's script to shoot as the first episode of the new season.

Then the script of the first episode will be used as the basis, and then the writing team will write the second episode based on the development of the story of the first episode...

In short, it is to continuously strengthen backwards on the best choice, and then everyone selects the most suitable one and polishes it together.

So when Penny wanted to know the plot, she was blocked. Everyone wrote different stories, and there was only one episode. This was very painful, and she could only continue to wait for the filming of the TV series.

She complained to Lynch for a few days, and then decided to make a TV series related to shelters to vent her emotions and find something to do for the artists in the company.

A very interesting thing happened during this period. Silani approached Penny and hoped to meet Lynch, but Penny vetoed it.

She talked to Lynch and he didn't think she had done anything wrong.

After finishing breakfast, he picked up the phone and called Senator Langdon, "Is there anything you need to do in the morning?"

"No."

"I'll go to your office later..."

A little after nine o'clock, Lynch arrived at Senator Langdon's office.

In fact, members of Congress have offices in the Capitol, but they don't go to this office very often because they only have their own space in the office.

Senator Langdon's office is not far from the Capitol. He rents an independent three-story building that can be regarded as a "studio."

Inside is his own work team. Every member of Congress, especially a senator, cannot handle the work at hand alone.

Unless they plan on exhausting themselves to death!

In fact, each senator has a working group centered around him, and he has to pay these people.

This is actually the case even for members of the House of Representatives, except that they have fewer people under their control. Some of the poorer ones are really just themselves, while most have two or three helpers.

Senator Langdon met Lynch at the door and went to his office. After sitting down, Lynch talked about the professor's idea of ​​staying.

Senator Langdon was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly, "To be honest, I was really surprised to hear the news."

"At the same time, I also want to tell you that I also plan to stay."

Lynch looked at Senator Langdon calmly, "It should not just be because of power..."
