Quick Travel: Save the poor little villain

Alex's heart sank at this realization.

The five days that originally felt long suddenly became extremely short.

One unfinished thing was recalled by him.

The freesias in the garden have not yet bloomed, Jinchen has not yet set a date for his uncle to take him home for dinner, and the originally agreed-upon two-person combat training cabin has not yet begun to be renovated.

When he returns to the empire, will the traces of his existence here slowly disappear?

He tightened his grip on his clothes, feeling increasingly depressed.

Jinchen didn't seem to show any unhappiness today. Did he not think of this?

But no matter how you think about it, time is still flying by.

In the next few days, Alex forced himself not to think about it. Instead, he devoted all his attention to rehabilitation and combat training to restore his body's functions and strength to the best of his ability.

Even if it is not as good as before the injury, he will not absolutely not allow it, and he will become a waste in the future.

In his free time, Alex gradually discovered something was wrong.

In the past, when he was free, Jinchen would accompany him, no matter what he did, as long as the two of them stayed together, so over time, he changed from a habit to a feeling of dependence.

But these days, Jinchen seems to be extremely busy.

Either he was in the study, or he went to the First Army Corps. When he came back in the evening, he was exhausted, and then he plunged into the study again.

He was worried that something big had happened to the Federal Army and he couldn't help it, so he didn't ask what Jin Chen had been doing these two days.

but……

Time is running out.

On the third day, Alex finished his rehabilitation training in the morning and went to the bathroom to take a shower. When he came out, he found that Jinchen's study was tightly closed again. Occasionally, a few words of conversation between him and his subordinates could be heard, some of which were related to the military. On the other hand, his fingertips on the door handle moved, but he did not rush in after all.

After all, they still have a different status. Even if Jinchen doesn't care, he can't let Jinchen's subordinates have any opinions.

But the feelings he had experienced in the past few days really made Alex feel a little unable to adapt.

He nestled on the sofa, then took a blanket to cover himself, opened his brain with his fingertips still wet with moisture, and began to browse the star network aimlessly.

When he saw the discussion on the Star Network forum, he was slightly startled while drinking tea, and also posted a post.

"I'm from the Empire. I came to the Federation because of some accidents, and I met a soldier here..."

I paused with my fingertips, deleted those two words, and wrote again, "I live with a person here. In a sense, he gave me a new life and a new beginning. After a period of getting along, we We have also confirmed our relationship. Recently, due to some force majeure reasons, I have to return to the empire, and I am facing a separation from him."

"But seeing the time of separation getting closer and closer, he suddenly started to get busy, and the time he spent with me also shrunk a lot."

"So, are these two things connected, or maybe it's just my imagination."

At this time, there were many people surfing the Star Network, and as soon as Alex’s post was posted, there were many replies.

He took a sip of tea, clicked on the message section and started checking the replies and comments.

1L: Take a wild guess!Could it be that he is not used to being separated from you, so he uses work to divert his attention?

2L: But according to the poster’s description, they probably only have a few days left. How come they still have time to divert their attention? Shouldn’t they be gentle?

3L: Ask a question!How long will the poster be separated this time?Maybe in his eyes, you just go and deal with things and then come back?

4L: By the way, if people from the Empire need to live in the Federation for a long time, they should apply for a residence permit. Does the poster have this plan?

...

123L: We are starting to feel unfamiliar. I feel that we will never see each other again anyway, so I might as well put an end to the relationship myself as soon as possible.

...

Answers like this.

Alex's mood fluctuated with these answers.

It seemed that he could never stay calm when it came to Jinchen.

The answer from Floor 123 left him stunned for a long time. He turned to look at the closed study door, his pale golden pupils flickering dimly.

But during this period of time together, every step they took was Jinchen's initiative. Could it be that the person who was hot first would be the first to become cold.

Recalling the past, Alex shook his head, feeling that he was overthinking.

Jinchen would not be such a person. They just lacked communication for the time being. Perhaps as mentioned on the third floor, Jinchen always thought that he would come back. He just regarded this separation for who knows how long as a temporary distance, so he It will be as if nothing happened.

Five days passed in a flash.

Alex never found a chance to ask Jinchen about his attitude. Every time he wanted to speak, seeing his smiling face, he couldn't bear to let things like separation break the warmth of getting along. The last unfinished words were Kiss sealed.

The last detoxification process was logically the most painful, but because Alex had already tried two detoxification stacks last time, the final process was easier to get through.

He watched the repair instrument restore the wound on his abdomen to be as intact as before, and there was no longer any trace of injury.

Only he himself knows how much the sword cost.

I don’t know why, after detoxification, the suppressed emotions in the past few days have accumulated more and more, and I urgently need an outlet.

But after all, he is a person who is good at forbearance.

That night, Jinchen received news that Duke Witte, a member of the imperial royal family, would lead a diplomatic team for negotiation and land on the main star of the Federation at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning. At that time, Jinchen would need to lead the welcome team of the First Army to greet him. .

Duke Werther is the younger brother of Isidore, the current ruler of the empire, and the father of the protagonist Ian.

They came here this time, on the one hand, to pick up Ian and the others who were still in prison, and on the other hand, to bring Alex back to the Empire in an honest and fair manner. How they deal with it then has nothing to do with the Federation.

The negotiation time is set for tomorrow afternoon. If it goes well, the shuttle ship will set sail back to the empire that evening.

Even though he had already expected it, when the separation was really close, Alex's reluctance still burned to the top.

Coming out of the bathroom, Alex has been a little distracted.

Until he heard a sentence, it was Jinchen and Joyce communicating.

——"Don't be anxious about the engagement ceremony. I'll wait until the day comes...I'm not ready yet."

He didn't hear the rest clearly, but this sentence alone was enough to shock Alex's heart.

Engagement ceremony, whose engagement ceremony it is, what Jinchen needs to prepare.

Is it his? Who is it with? He is leaving tomorrow. Who is Jinchen going to get engaged to?

At that moment, Alex felt like he was split into two souls. One looked on coldly, scolding him for not being tempted, and the other was in pain, wondering why he had reached this point.

"Dear, what's wrong?"
