Can read minds and not mark

Chapter 39 Chapter 39

Lin Han felt the breathing of the person in his arms gradually calming down.

He Yunting was still a little uncomfortable when he first hugged him, but he regained his composure in Lin Han's thin arms.

So he stopped making any sound and tried to contact him with a dependent posture for the first time.

I cannot lift the burden from my shoulders, but I am willing to draw peace from your tenderness.

From then on, you and I will be different from others, and no one knows that we have a common secret tonight.

Gradually, Lin Han's ears became quiet, leaving only the strong and steady heartbeat of the other party - he knew that He Yunting had finally stolen a moment of leisure.

He no longer questioned himself all the time, and no longer indulged in the various rights and wrongs that troubled him.

At this moment, he belongs to him and himself.

The way He Yunting hugged him couldn't be said to be weird, but it seemed to have a kind of sacredness that could not be profaned.

Lin Han stopped talking. No one would disturb them at this moment, as if they could hug each other like this forever, be comforted in silence, and hold on to hope in the dark night.

Even though he knew that when he opened the door, He Yunting still had to face the dire situation. Even though he tried to remain neutral, he could not avoid the tumultuous and troubled political faction struggles.

Even if the tears never end, even if the cranberries no longer bloom.

Even the endless night is still long.

No one said anything when they finally let go. He Yunting seemed to have returned to his usual coldness the moment he left, but upon closer inspection, it seemed that it was different from before - which meant that the hug was effective.

Lin Han thought, that's enough.

He smiled at He Yunting first: "General, if you feel tired, you can come to me."

His eyes swept over the hands that were still warm: "You don't have to shake hands with me politely anymore - you can do it anytime you want."

If only this could share even a little bit of He Yunting's sadness.

He Yunting seemed stunned for a moment and raised his eyes to look at him.

"You don't have to think about anything, and you don't have to care about who is next to you," Lin Han tilted his head and said, "If the general thinks that would be better..."

"You don't have to ask me, you can grab my hand anytime."

Perhaps because the long hug just now narrowed the distance between the two, Lin Han actually had the urge to "reach out his finger and lift the corners of his mouth for He Yunting."

However, he soon felt that he had gone too far and withdrew the idea.

"Thank you." He Yunting only answered these two words, as if he was acquiescing to what Lin Han said before.

Lin Han looked up at this always cold face, and the thought just now became more and more vivid, and he couldn't hide it.

He wanted to see him smile.

His smile must be beautiful, it must be different from everyone else's.

There will definitely be this opportunity.

There will definitely be such a day.

Lin Han thought.

-

He Yunting continued to devote himself to his work after leaving the observation room, as if he did not feel tired, and as if the hug just now had given him strength again.

Lin Han briefly replenished his sleep, and when he returned to the captain's room, he found that several people seemed to be arguing about something.

Lu Anhe's voice came from the communicator: "I just contacted Qixing Biological Galaxy. The other party said that the weather has been bad these days and the visibility is extremely poor. Besides... we just had an accident in the border area. The advice they gave Yes, the exercise cannot continue."

Qixing Creatures cannot be said to have any respect for the Empire, but the long-term cooperative relationship prevents them from giving such advice out of thin air. Since the other party has said so, it must be really inappropriate to continue.

What's more, the sudden accident caught everyone off guard, and the sergeants wanted too much to take Ji Meng's body back.

He Yunting didn't seem to be surprised by this, and it seemed that he thought so too. He put his hands on the podium, and there was no trace of tiredness in his brows. It was completely unimaginable that he hadn't slept for a long time: "I understand."

To ensure safety, all the mechas in Group A have been recovered. Since safety has been ensured in Group B, some quasi-pilots are still unwilling to give up this opportunity and are conducting casual training without He Yunting giving clear instructions.

But before He Yunting could speak, Wen Tianyao spoke first: "General, everyone has already worked so hard to come to the border area. What's more, the fourth round of exercises only happens once a year. If we don't screen out the best, If our pilots are incorporated into the army, wouldn’t it be..."

His meaning was clear, he felt that the exercise should not stop here.

He Yunting turned to look at him emotionlessly: "Then your Highness the Prince means that you will bear the responsibility for Major Ji Meng's accident?"

He used to be indifferent to Wen Tianyao, but this time he rarely asked him in such a tone.

Ji Meng died, but there are people who are not even willing to take responsibility.

Wen Tianyao's face turned pale, he shook his head subconsciously, and said in a very official tone: "Everyone is very sad that something like this will happen to Major Ji Meng..."

Lin Han saw He Yunting's face darken after hearing these words: "So?"

Wen Tianyao seemed to be very good at saying this. He calmed down and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Lu has taken over his job, so we shouldn't stop here. After all, this is an opportunity to select elite pilots for the base. We can't just leave easily." .”

At this moment, Lin Han suddenly felt weird. He felt that Wen Tianyao was sometimes stupid without even realizing it. He always seemed to put maintaining his own image and status first, but ignored many issues of principle. .

"Qixing Creatures have said that the climate has changed. What if a star thief takes advantage of the situation?" He Yunting said word by word, "All prospective pilots have been selected at the base after three rounds of selection. Who will be responsible?" Responsible for their lives?”

Wen Tianyao seemed to want to say something else: "But Yan Ming was also one of the pilots, but he was accidentally injured because of his operation..."

He Yunting was half a head taller than Wen Tianyao. When his tone became completely cold, he looked down at him. The brim of his military cap cast a cold shadow on his eyes, making him feel even more oppressive.

Before Wen Tianyao could finish speaking, he interrupted him directly: "But they are my sergeants first, and the empire's sergeants second."

"Yan Ming's matter has not been investigated clearly. Even if there is a trial, he will eventually return to the military court and convict based on solid evidence." He Yunting did not often speak to Wen Tianyao for such a long time, even though his voice was actually the same as before. , but Wen Tianyao subconsciously avoided his eyes, "Or is it that His Highness the Prince wants to take over?"

Wen Tianyao's tone suddenly changed: "General, what do you mean by this?"

He Yunting ignored him - probably he was the only one who dared to show such a look to the prince of the empire.

"Send communication and ask all pilots in Group B to stop all training immediately, return to the warship according to number, and evacuate uniformly after counting the number of people."

"No matter where you are now, bring them back. Don't let the pilots leave the mecha."

The climate in the border area is already the worst among the galaxies under the jurisdiction of the empire, with huge temperature differences between day and night, poisonous ultraviolet rays and a thin atmosphere. Even through the long evolution of human beings, they are no longer as fragile as they were on the earth many years ago. Almost no one wants to be exposed to the air without wearing protective clothing.

The reason why the Star Thieves are easier to identify is because their armaments are scattered and out of standard, and their faces are darkened and vicissitudes of life because they are always exposed to harsh weather.

Wen Tianyao looked very sad, as if he wanted to insist on something, but he did not continue to speak due to the pressure from He Yunting.

Lin Han couldn't help but guess his purpose of coming here.

He said it was surveillance, but who was he to monitor? Maybe He Yunting, maybe Ye Ling, or these quasi-pilots...

The relationship between the two parties appears to be tense.

At this time, the person who had been staying next to Wen Tianyao these days suddenly spoke.

"Admiral, there is no need to be so angry." The man smiled politely and distantly, and said, "His Royal Highness just thinks that the opportunity is rare and is not willing to let it go."

Wen Tianyao heard someone come out to ease the atmosphere, and the awkward expression on his face faded a little.

But He Yunting obviously didn't take this trick. He just glanced at the person who spoke and turned away.

After all, someone had given him the steps, so Wen Tianyao took advantage of the situation and said, "Xi Yuan, it goes without saying."

The man named Xi Yuan is Wen Tianyao's personal deputy. As we all know, a deputy plays a huge role, and smoothing things over for his boss is half of it. Xi Yuan's presence is not high. Sometimes Wen Tianyao doesn't even let him follow him. It was because something happened today that we came to the captain's room together.

However, I heard that although Xi Yuan kept a low profile, he was indeed Wen Tianyao's right-hand man, otherwise Wen Tianyao would not have brought him with him on the battleship.

Xi Yuan nodded immediately when he heard what Wen Tianyao said: "Then just listen to the general. Those just now were just His Highness's suggestions."

After saying this, Xi Yuan took a step back politely and said no more.

-

In the end, Wen Tianyao failed to persist and watched helplessly as He Yunting recalled all the pilots one by one, took off their serial numbers, and returned to the battleship.

When Lu Anhe came back, he brought the dilapidated "Cranberry", but he placed the body in his Aegis - the cranberry was seriously damaged and had no sealing function. He placed Ji Meng in such a way that he could contact the outside world. It is easy to spoil in the environment.

So Lu Anhe turned on Zeus's air conditioner to the maximum, and then placed Ji Meng inside in a fully airtight manner, so that he could be brought back to the empire as intact as possible under limited conditions.

Lu Anhe's expression had calmed down, and he even smiled occasionally when talking to Ye Ling.

There's just something missing from the smile.

With He Yunting around, execution was always fast, and all orders were completed within half a day.

When some would-be pilots return to the battleship, there is always a look of confusion on their faces.

Is that all?

After trying his best to pass the three rounds of selection, something unexpected happened at the stall where the results were about to be obtained, so he had to withdraw and go back to investigate in depth.

Dusk in the border area is always depressed and desolate.

There are no residents here, except for the soldiers stationed at the distant border, and there is only dirty and dark yellow sand.

Lin Han was just a little regretful.

He might not be able to see the El Iniho Nebula that He Yunting mentioned.

The captain's command room was back in place, and after counting the number of people, they were about to return.

The route back to the border area is different from before coming here. They can start the jump on the first day. After the jump is successful, it will take one day less than when they came.

Lin Han took a nutrient supplement and returned to the captain's room.

Wen Tianyao was not there, and He Yunting was staring at the screen in front of him intently, and the communicator continued to hear reports of various arrangements.

Lin Han looked sideways at him. He Yunting's face was as dark as water, but there was finally a trace of tiredness between his brows. He blinked and left this last bit of fatigue behind him.

The heartache I felt before slowly came back.

Lin Han remembered what he had said to him before and suddenly had an impulse. He did not consider what Ye Ling and Lu Anhe would think of him.

"General," Lin Han opened his hand to He Yunting and spoke gently in a very natural tone, "do you want to hold me?"

He felt He Yunting startled for a moment.

Lin Han was not nervous, nor did he withdraw his hand. His cold white fingers were long and palm upward, waiting for something.

He Yunting didn't speak, his eyes finally softened a little, and he wanted to reach out his hand and cover the other person's fingers.

The accident also happened at this moment.

The battleship hadn't moved yet, but at the same time it sounded a frightening and piercing siren——

The empire's vigilance against the Zerg is always at the highest level, and some alarms are engraved in the program. They will be automatically sounded without the need to sound them in the event of an emergency.

And that's exactly what happened now.

This is not an ordinary alarm, it is a sharp alarm that only occurs when encountering Zerg.

He Yunting's hand failed to hold him in the end, and his eyes became cold again. He grabbed the communicator and was about to speak...

There is no need to speak anymore.

A second later, the screen on the outside of the battleship had already transmitted the picture.

A huge, dark creature appeared not far from the battleship at some point. Its pair of tentacles were waving, its mouthparts were sharp, and its eight legs were all equipped with terrifying mechanical barbs, making it intimidating. .

It was a huge... giant mechanical sandworm. ,, Please remember to bookmark the URL or keep it in mind, the URL is m.. Free and fastest updates, no anti-theft, no anti-theft. Error reporting. Looking for books. Chatting with book friends.
