Chapter 213 Reunion in Memories

Chapter 214 Reunion in Memories

University classroom. Unlike the small classrooms in the organization, it was a room that could seat 30 people. There was no seating arrangement for students. They entered the class according to their departments and then sat down randomly. But the leftmost window seat in the third row of the classroom, which was always full, was always empty. Because all the students knew that it was a seat reserved for a special student. A girl who was only 18 years old could discuss academic skills and problems with doctoral students here. Four years ago, when this student first walked into the classroom, all the students showed strange expressions. When the teacher introduced her, all the students showed surprised faces. Brown short hair, naturally curly small waves. There was no expression on her face to express her emotions. The teacher just introduced that this was a genius girl from Japan, and she would study with us from today. Then I saw this 14-year-old girl carrying a bag, walked to the seat, sat down gently, took out the textbook, and waited for the teacher to teach. If the teacher hadn't asked her questions inadvertently during the class, all the students would have thought that she couldn't speak or couldn't speak English. But when she spoke fluent English without any Japanese accent, the college students seemed surprised. The slightly cold voice coming out of her mouth was like the sound of nature. Unfortunately, their age difference was too big, a difference of ten years, otherwise some single American college students would want to ask the genius girl for a date.

However, this genius girl seemed to be very taciturn. Apart from the teacher's questions and her own questions to the teacher, she hardly interacted with the students. Even if the teacher asked her to do a group assignment, she never participated, but completed the work of a group alone. Unless she needed an assistant, she would find a female student with relatively good academic performance in the class and gently say, "Could you help me finish this assignment?"

In this way, this talented girl was praised as the ice and snow goddess in the class. Although she was very young, her unique temperament attracted many young students. Of course, some people were very disgusted with such an attitude, thinking that the talented girl was too arrogant. They could not get along with her, and some even prepared to attack her. It was the second year that the girl came to this school. Because of a mock exam, the girl once again won the first place in the department. And won the scholarship this time. For this reason, a boy in the class who had long been jealous of her talent finally couldn't help it. After class, the boy blocked her way.

"Can you move aside?" (You are not good at English, but you should come here to understand it. Just know that we are speaking English.) The genius girl was not afraid of the boy who was nearly ten years older than her. The cold voice came out from her. However, the boy in front of her did not mean to move aside. His facial expression also began to become ferocious. It seemed that the boy's anger had reached a certain point, and he punched the genius girl.

Snapped!
To everyone's surprise, the punch did not hit the genius girl, but was easily blocked by her hand. Then, the genius girl slightly rotated her arm and pulled the boy back. She also kicked the boy's knee hard. Instantly, the boy lost his balance and fell forward. After knocking the boy down, the genius girl walked out of the classroom without looking back.

The students in the class were stunned by the scene. They didn't expect that the seemingly weak girl could have such skills. Although it was just a move, the boy really lay on the ground and didn't get up for a long time. And the next day, the students in the class didn't see him come to school. At this point, the students in the class understood that the girl who was hailed as a genius not only had an eye-catching appearance and excellent grades, but also had awe-inspiring skills. Over time, few people would cause trouble for her in school. Because the impression she left on everyone in the school has almost become a legendary story. And the name of the genius girl is... Sherry.

Four years have passed, and time has flown by quickly. Once I put my heart into studying, I can't feel the speed of time. There are no holidays. No rest. Every day is spent in busyness. The occasional one or two days of vacation are just spent in deep sleep and missing. The four bases and eleven gold medals in the US base have not given me too much attention. After all, I am a person assigned by the organization. Here, my status is second only to the core researchers and gold medals. So, for the past four years, I have lived in a villa of my own. No one disturbed me, and no one visited me. For four years, every day is the same. There is no popularity at all. Occasionally, Taiyi and Mary will come to see me. Bring some gifts and the latest news they know.

I heard that Bing had come to the United States twice for missions. One time was two years ago, and the other was half a year ago. Unfortunately, both times were different from mine. But he did leave a lot of things for me. But the most important thing is that I know he is still alive. At least half a year ago, he was not overwhelmed by endless missions. To me, this is more important than anything else.

And in the United States, I really met my sister, although I don't know why she came to the United States. But seeing that she is still safe, I also feel a little that all my patience and survival for so long have not been in vain. It's a pity that we didn't give each other too much time. My sister hurriedly left the United States and returned to Japan. Now, I have completed my studies and officially joined the organization's research team a year ago. At the same time, I also joined the organization's drug development team. And the task I got was to study a special poison that would no longer remain in the human body. This poison can kill people invisibly. From the first day of joining this research, my status has been strengthened again. If there are gold medals among researchers, then I am definitely one of them now.

After four years of study, I immediately applied to return to Japan to conduct research. Seeing how anxious I was, the people in the organization arranged a flight back to Japan without saying anything. They thought I had done my best for the organization, but they didn't know that I just wanted to go back and see him as soon as possible.

I boarded the return flight. Taiyi and Mary, who were traveling with me at the time, did not come back with me. Taiyi stayed in the US base because of his excellent hacker skills. Of course, he was still under Bing's name, but because Bing's status was not high at the time, Taiyi was forced to stay in the US. Mary had a theoretical article on medical methods in the US that had not been finalized, so she needed to stay here for a while.

So, out of the three of us, today I was the only one who went back to the base first. On the plane, although I tried my best to control my emotions, the excitement in my heart would make the corners of my mouth rise inadvertently when I thought of him whom I hadn’t seen for four years. Sitting in the seat, my hand unconsciously brushed the necklace in front of my chest. As long as I wait a little longer, I will be able to see him soon. I thought so. So I closed my eyes and breathed slowly, hoping that I could fall asleep, so that I could see him when I woke up. Moreover, I would meet him with a brand new identity. The core researcher of the organization. This identity is enough for me to take him from Vermouth. In this way, he will never be in danger again. But...

————The scent of orchids, the scent of lavender, the scent of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————

When I got off the plane and took the organization's car back to the base, I rushed to his room as soon as I reported in. The words IceWine were still on his door. They had not been removed, which proved that he was still alive. I knocked on his door nervously. But there was no response from inside. Not here? Was he on a mission? I thought for a while, then walked towards the cafe in the organization.

"Sister Sherry, welcome back. You've worked hard." The waiter at the cafe greeted me. After I reported in, I naturally changed into the white coat that is unique to core researchers. Everyone here knew my identity.

"What mission did IceWine assign today?" I nodded to him and asked directly.

"Brother IceWine didn't go on any mission today." The waiter told me bluntly without even looking through the mission records on the computer.

"Ok?"

"IceWine is injured. He is currently in the emergency room of the medical department."

"What!?" I paused for a moment. "What's going on!" I said sternly. "Brother IceWine is under Sister Margarita's name. When he was doing a mission the day before yesterday, Sister Margarita treated him as a traitor. But he came back injured and killed Sister Margarita. He reached a consensus with Sister Vermouth and determined that Margarita was the traitor, so he shot her dead himself. Then Brother IceWine was sent to the emergency room."

"Margarita..." I frowned and thought, and sure enough, the killer under my command attacked Bing. Without staying any longer, I went straight to the medical department of the organization. When I arrived at the medical department, I was not stopped this time and walked in directly. In the corridor of the operating room, I saw Vermouth in black clothes. At this time, she was leaning against the wall, sipping a lady's cigarette in her hand. Hearing the movement in the corridor, she subconsciously turned her head to look. Seeing that it was me, she was slightly stunned, and it took her a long time to recover, remembering that today was the day I came back. Seeing me coming, Vermouth frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. She just stood up and walked past me.

"...How is he?" Although I didn't want to talk to her, she might know Bing's condition. So I subconsciously asked her. After hearing what I said, she suddenly stopped moving forward. She was silent for a few seconds before she spoke slowly.

"I don't know, Jingliu is still dealing with it." Vermouth took another puff of the cigarette in her hand. "If he survives, take good care of him. If he dies, remember to notify me." Without further words, Vermouth turned and disappeared outside the corridor of the medical department.

I frowned slightly at what Vermouth said. I knew that he favored Bing. But I didn't expect that Vermouth trusted him so much that she would guard outside the door when he was injured and underwent surgery. Of course, seeing me, Vermouth didn't need to stay here any longer. Instead, she gave me the job of guarding outside the door.

Looking at the door of the operating room, my brows knitted tightly. Bing, you have waited for me for four years. I can't let these four years go to waste. Stay alive, please. You must stay alive!

Standing at the door of the operating room, I held the necklace in my hand and prayed non-stop. Time passed by minute by minute, and the corridor was eerily quiet. I don't know how long it took, but finally, the warning light on the top of the operating room went out, and soon, a woman in surgical gown walked out. The moment she walked out of the door, she took off the hat and mask she wore during the operation, revealing her long hair that was soaked with sweat. Then she let out a long breath.

"Sister Jingliu?" I said to the person who came out.

"Eh? Shiho?" Sister Shizuru was slightly surprised to see me. "You're back?"

"Well, I just came back today. But I learned that Bing..."

"Well... but it's all right now. The operation was successful and the patient is out of danger. The next step is recuperation." Sister Jingliu wiped the sweat from her head. "Do you know the specific reason?"

"Well, I guess I found out from the mission desk. Is it because of Margaret?"

"Yes. The killer attacked Bing the day before yesterday, but Bing managed to come back with a punctured lung." Sister Jingliu said with some fear. "But fortunately, the alveoli have not collapsed. The treatment was also timely."

"Is that so..." I thought for a moment. "But fortunately, Bing is fine, that's great." I breathed a sigh of relief. "Then, can I see him?"

"I'm afraid he won't make it today." Sister Jingliu shook her head. "He's still in a coma."

"It's okay, even if it's just to see him."

"Well... well, you'll know it sooner or later anyway." Sister Jingliu thought for a moment, then opened the door of the operating room again. You'll know it sooner or later? What does that mean? I didn't understand, so I just followed Sister Jingliu inside. When I saw Bing lying on the bed with her upper body half naked, I finally understood what Sister Jingliu meant by "you'll know it sooner or later."

That sentence meant exactly what Bing looked like at the moment. His lower body was covered by a thin white blanket. His upper body was exposed under the operating light. His strong chest and powerful arms made him look so attractive. But all of this was covered by the scars all over his body.

Yes, scars all over his body. Some are hideous, some are twisted. Gunshot wounds. Knife wounds. Burns. Almost all kinds of scars can be seen clearly on Bing's body. I don't know why. After seeing Bing's condition, my tears suddenly became uncontrollable. They slid out of my eyes in an instant. After four years apart, what on earth did he do? I don't know, but the only thing I know is that he used this method to support his family and keep my sister and I safe. With his life and all these scars on his body!

The next second, tears burst out like a dam.
