The orange door, the silver-gray frame, and the CREW GUYS flying like feathers.
This door located at the end of the arched corridor, which is not spacious, has appeared countless times in future dreams. Every time it is so real, but every time when you are about to touch it, it disappears like a mirror, only the moon in the water disappears.
Endless memories and sorrow.
This made the future afraid to step forward, staring blankly at the door, not daring to step forward, and unwilling to leave.
Colorful streams of light were transmitted from the walls up and down, left and right, and converged on the door, faintly forming the electronic pattern of Aix.
Then, with a soft "click" sound, the automatic door, rendered in rainbow colors by the colorful light, slowly opened, revealing everything inside the door to the future.
Although he hadn't seen it for a long time, Mirai still recognized the room in front of him at a glance, which was only 20 square meters. It was the war room that belonged to CREW GUYS JAPAN when he was on Earth.
The tables, chairs and benches are arranged in the same layout as many years ago, giving people the impression that people have just left for a short time, and after killing the monsters, they will come back to study the monsters just now, or discuss the recent gossip.
Just the thin layer of dust on the objects in the room silently tells that no one has been here for a long time.
"Everyone..." Looking at the war room in front of him in the future, tears couldn't help but flow down again. Everything familiar brought him back to the past in a daze.
Ryu lay here reading a magazine, George sat there and played soccer, Mariina and Kinoumi discussed monster babies, Teppei concentrated on researching monster information, and the captain sipped coffee leisurely.
Occasionally, Assistant Toriyama and Secretary Maru would come in noisily, and Acting Director Meiki would convey instructions through the holographic screen in front.
Everything is so warm, everything is so missed, everything is so unforgettable...
Future stood at the door and stared for a long time, as if he didn't want to break the tranquility of the room. He was even more afraid that after entering, everything would be like the past. Everything in front of him was like a mirror, shattered and turned into nothing.
But in the end, the future took a step forward. Even if it was just for a short while, he wanted to go in, return to the small war room, and see his friends again.
clatter!
Future's feet stepped into the war room, and the door behind him slowly closed. When the electronic lock fell and closed, the colorful light lingering on the door flew in all directions along the wall, lighting up the room like a lamp.
In the war room, which was not too big, Future saw a photo posted and placed on the wall and table of the war room:
Single person photos, group photos, landscape photos;
Different time, different place, different season;
There are photos looking towards the camera, and there are photos looking in other directions;
...
The first thing that caught Mirai's eyes was the group photo. Everyone was huddled together and smiling happily at the camera. This was after defeating Impreza. The captain used his newly bought camera and asked the staff at the base to help him.
A group photo taken in the war room.
Everyone has one, and one is also placed in the war room. It is one of the few things that will be taken away when the future leaves the earth.
But the group photo that now appears in front of the future has not only been enlarged, but has also been carefully framed. Even the blurry pixels have been carefully modified, making the enlarged photo appear quite clear.
Surrounding the group photo were individual photos of the team members. The youthful team members were wearing GUYS uniforms and posing in different styles, looking handsome and high-spirited.
There is also a photo of everyone huddled together, with their heads touching each other, and no faces can be seen, which reminds the future of the origin of this photo. After that group photo, the captain took his newly bought camera and gave it to everyone.
We took a lot of photos, of people wearing team uniforms, people wearing casual clothes, people in the war room, people busy in the hangar, and it was even discovered that the captain often raised his camera to take pictures when everyone was not paying attention.
At first, everyone thought that the captain was obsessed with photography and used everyone to practice taking pictures, but later they found that this was not the case because the photos taken by the captain were quite good.
Regardless of angle, focus or aperture, I am not a novice. I obviously have some experience and a high level of skill.
So why is the captain holding up his camera to take pictures of everyone when he has nothing to do?
For this reason, the team members even gathered together to discuss secretly while the captain was away.
————————————————
"As long as you are in the war room, you can see the captain playing with his camera." Mu Zhimei said thoughtfully.
Jin Zhimei, who was huddled together with Mu Zhimei, nodded matter-of-factly and said: "It is definitely a new one, and the price is very expensive. I have asked about it, and I can't even play with it without certain professional knowledge."
"Ah, what kind of camera?" Long said with a confused look on his face, "Isn't the captain sitting there drinking coffee?"
"..."
Everyone turned their heads and looked over, seeing pure confusion on Long's face. It didn't look like he was pretending at all, but he really didn't know.
George was speechless. He really wanted to open this guy's head and see what was inside. How long had the captain been playing with the camera, but this guy hadn't noticed it until now.
"Go away, the hot-blooded idiot." Jinna pushed Long away to prevent this guy from affecting everyone's discussion.
Zheping held his chin and analyzed extremely seriously: "I think the captain wants to use it to shoot monsters after he has practiced it well. After all, many times, the more details there are, the more detailed the data can be for analysis."
"But when it comes to analysis, isn't there a specialized department? When a monster appears, what should be considered is how to defeat the monster as quickly as possible instead of analyzing the monster." George shook his head, feeling that Zheping's analysis was unreliable, and even thought that Zheping was
Talking about himself, what this guy likes most is to lie in front of the computer and study monsters byte by pixel.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "So the captain must have bought the camera to take pictures of things he is interested in." Mu Zhimei said with certainty.
Long scratched his head and said, "Then what is the captain interested in?"
"Coffee beans!"
Future, who already knew the difference between coffee beans and lucky beans, immediately raised his hand to answer, with a smile on his face. He only needed to write the words "praise me now".
"Who knows how to pat coffee beans?" Mariina looked disgusted and crossed her arms to deny Mirai's answer.
This made the smile on Future's face suddenly turn aggrieved, and he said: "Then what will everyone take pictures of?"
"Monsters," Zheping replied without thinking, but after seeing the future, he immediately added: "There are also Ultraman, and models of monsters and Ultraman."
"While riding a motorcycle, I will see the beautiful scenery on the roadside and stop to take a picture. I want to take you with me next time. The scenery in the mountains can never be experienced in the city." Jinna wrote with great interest.
Her hobbies, in exchange for shaking her head, were on Jinna's motorcycle, which was more exciting than a roller coaster. Only the excitement and yearning on Mirai's face, and the look of eagerness to try, made Jinna very satisfied, right?
Already starting to wonder when she and the future vacation will be together.
"Me, I haven't taken many photos. I mostly take photos with fans." George recalled the greatness of the past, and when he thought about it now, he felt quite sad.
"I often take pictures of children in kindergarten when they are playing, in class, eating, and sleeping."
"My words... um!" Long thought seriously about when he had taken pictures, and then thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out. He had joined GUYS a long time ago and was used to carrying a memory display when going out.
Take orders at any time. His mobile phone, which he hasn't used for a long time, doesn't seem to have a camera function.
Long, who was slightly embarrassed, took Mirai in his arms and said, "Future, can you take photos?"
"This..." Future shook his head and said, "No."
A smile suddenly appeared on Long's face, as if he was saying, 'Look, it's not just me', but the next words in the future immediately made his smile freeze.
"Ultra's signature can transmit messages, whether it's sound or images. With Ultra's telekinesis, it can restore the images in the memory, and..."
"Okay, that's enough!" Long didn't want to stop. It's not that we don't take pictures together, but it's unnecessary. You're still posting foreign movies here, and everyone is using AR.
Just then, a gentle voice came from the door: "What are everyone discussing?"
Everyone turned around and saw the captain standing at the door with a gentle smile on his face, looking at everyone curiously.
The honest future immediately said: "We are discussing the captain... wu wu..."
Long instantly covered Mirai's mouth, and Jinna and George squeezed over with smiles on their faces, blocking the two of them behind them.
“The future is Huggies’ recent photography exhibition.”
"Yes, yes, I am very interested in photos in the future."
"That's it, so I just asked everyone what kind of photos they like to take."
Marina and George sang together, while Long and Zheping, dragged behind the future who would answer whatever he asked, and 'threatened' him not to speak with his eyes.
"What kind of photos?" Captain Shui Shui sat in his seat, took out a still new camera from the cabinet, and said with a smile: "I think no matter what kind of photos, they are people or things that everyone likes.
The moment you press the shutter button, you also record on the film the moment when you think things are the most beautiful. When you look back later, you will definitely have different feelings."
"Captain, what you said is so philosophical." Jinna never expected that the captain's answer would be like this.
"So..." George rolled his eyes and asked casually: "Captain, what kind of photos will you take?"
The captain smiled, picked up the coffee cup next to him, raised it, took a nice sip, and then said: "Secret!"
Everyone immediately let out a sigh of disappointment.
After the captain left, Future, who was able to speak freely again, said firmly: "The captain raised a coffee cup, so it must be coffee."
"Taking pictures of coffee...it's so weird." Jinna still shook her head, not thinking this was right, at least not normal.
"Maybe," Long nodded in agreement and said, "After all, the captain loves coffee so much that he takes photos of his favorite coffee as a souvenir."
"It makes sense."
"..."
Everyone started a heated discussion again, but they didn't notice at all that the captain appeared at the door at some point, raised his camera, and quietly took a picture of the crowd huddled together.
————————————
"So Captain, the people you like are us." Mirai looked at the photos of this table and murmured to himself.
The photos on the table seem to be arranged in chronological order. Looking from near to far, everyone is wearing GUYS uniforms to wearing different clothes. From young to mature, from youthful to steady, these should be in his GUYS.
Taken during those years.
The photos on the walls on both sides are a bit more unfamiliar. They should be photos taken after he left the earth.
Because the friends in the photo are surrounded by other people.
Some are colleagues at work, some are romantic partners, some are wedding scenes, some are holding a child in the arms of the hospital...
In these photos, familiar figures occasionally appear, including Director Misakiro, Assistant Toriyama and Secretary Wumaru, and Sister Aya, the new team member Harusaki who she met when she returned to Earth to deal with the Dark Armor, and Team Marine's
Yongyu and Chief Araso, Dr. Fujisawa...
These few group photos prove that even though everyone left GUYS and started a different life, they still get together occasionally, some in hotels, some in parks, some at competition venues, and some...
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! These different scenes tell their respective lives.
Until I saw the photos on the wall in the middle of the war room in the future, I couldn't help but shed tears that I had finally stopped.
It was an age that he had never seen before. He needed to look carefully to identify the white-haired old people in the photo. They were Long, Zheping, George, Jinna, Mu Zhimei, and Captain Susui.
They have gray hair, wrinkled faces, or wear reading glasses or hearing aids, or even lie in hospital beds or sit in wheelchairs, but what remains unchanged is the smile on their faces, smiling happily at the camera.
In the six photos in the center of this wall, the six old people seemed to have made an appointment. They all made scissor hands to the camera and tried their best to show their brightest smiles.
Even though they are all lying on the hospital bed, even though there are few teeth in their mouths, and even though some of them still have oxygen tubes inserted into their noses, they are still smiling hard and smiling at the camera, letting the photos retain their last moments.
smile.
"Everyone..."
Tears fell to the ground drop by drop.
Although I had known this for a long time, when I actually saw it, Mirai still couldn't help but cry and be sad.
This last photo may be the last moments of our friends.
But they still drag their bodies tortured by illness and use their best efforts to leave photos of this smile to the future. They want to use this smile to tell the future: Look, the future, our life is very happy, even if we have to leave,
Can laugh heartily.
Even at the last moment of their lives, they were still talking about themselves, but they could not wait for themselves. Only these photos full of smiles but full of regrets were left, quietly waiting for themselves.
