MECHANICAL: Mechanism

Ever since Morris started working in the interstellar pirate industry, although Yanchi said that he was not worried about him anymore, he actually asked some honest questions about interstellar pirates.Generally speaking, they have no fixed place to live. The abandoned planet that was besieged last time is actually just a trading place with mixed fish and dragons. Some people will have a fixed base on it for trading and temporary residence. Intricate terrain, but most of the time they are drifting between universes and will not have a fixed residence.

When they said going ashore, there were only two meanings, washing hands in the gold basin and bleaching to intervene in other activities.

Yan Chi was stunned for a while, recalling the previous events: "He wants more influence?"

Elvitt nodded, and did not ask how Yanchi guessed it.Moreover, it is not difficult to guess that Morris will not give up his already stable path at this juncture, let alone abandon his motherland suddenly, so his behavior is absolutely impossible to give up the golden basin, and the pirates After all, it is a terrorist organization, and he can play little role in the war. Therefore, Morris chooses to realize the money and channels accumulated by pirates through other means, which can help the current emergency situation to a greater extent. , is a matter of course.

Now that Yanchi's guess has been proven to be true, he frowned: "It's too dangerous for him to use his identity as a former pirate to carry out such activities."

Perhaps it has nothing to do with Erwitt, Erwitt’s analysis of this is very rational, and even has the meaning of consoling Banchi lightly: “Not all planets are like Wumutong people. We were wiped out and they didn’t The good thing is that the growth of Wumutong people poses a great threat to them, and it is not that there is no room for manipulation."

Yanchi was taken aback when he heard it, and realized that it was different from what he thought. Morris and Wu Mutong hadn’t got involved yet, let alone communicated positively. Then he thought that it would not be too easy. His actions Once his true identity is exposed, he may still be targeted by Wu Mutong or others.After all, although Wu Mutong may be the opponent's enemy, Morris is definitely not an ally.But he refrained from saying this. Alwitt’s original intention was to let him not worry so much. He had good intentions. Why bother to argue with each other, so he took the lead in changing the topic: “Where is Astoria? Continuing activities on the diplomatic front?"

If Alwitt hadn't woken him up just now, Yanchi would generally not be able to remember that there are other regimes in this universe besides the regime that is currently at war with his family, mainly because new humans have always been very closed in the universe , have never made a sound, and other regimes have not made a sound about the aggression of Wumutong Galaxy, and they all feel a little non-existent to each other.

Alwitt still has a good understanding of Astoria's recent situation: "She is still dealing with some problems in the Muren's detention area, and she will also contact Morris during this process, and decide the next step based on the information he has learned. What kind of policy should we adopt at the diplomatic level? Others in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are not as busy as her, so it is not a waste of time. By the time you come to Artemis, Astoria should have returned to Sunel .”

Yanchi reacted quickly and noticed the details in his words: "You are also in Artemis now? What happened to Sunel?"

Since Wu Mutong had already bombed Sunel last time, otherwise Le Lunai would not have rashly left the new earth and entered Venus, so the first reaction of Yanchi was that the association was very bad, and his face even changed. .He may not be afraid of other things, but if Sunell is bombed, it will cause great damage to the morale and the actual sense of the new human beings.

Elwitt guessed what he was thinking, and explained: "Sunel is fine, Mingguang Palace stays there, I only come to Artemis for two purposes, to intercept the Wumutong people's spying on the morning star and to wait for you to come. Give you a formal title—generally speaking, this actually requires Le Luna, but you already know that the temporary transfer will still make her condition worse, and it is not suitable for her to stay awake for the time being."

Yan Chi nodded to show that he really knew, and frowned slightly: "So there is no red corridor this time?"

The most glorious moment in his life is probably the marshal's conferment ceremony. There is no wedding, nor is there a serious conferment ceremony. Yanchi feels very regretful.It might be hard to talk about grievances, but I'm not very happy either.

Alwitt saw that he was not in a good mood, and comforted him: "There is no way to do it in a hurry. When you come, I think many people will pay respects to you."

This made Yanchi a little uncomfortable and embarrassed.Everything he did was what he should have done, not to mention that he lost Lu Shi during this mission, he really shouldn't be admired as a great cause: "I didn't do anything, it might as well save it." .The marshal's funeral has not yet been held..."

As he said that, Yan Chi asked hopefully again: "Have you found Shura's remains?"

After all, Lu Shi's fall into the universe is not his end. The new human beings hope to retrieve Shura's remains. Even if he may pass through the atmosphere and be burned to the point where he cannot distinguish the difference between the remains and Shura, he should be regarded as a perfect match. The ceremonial burial, rather than exile, so this matter has become a concern for all soldiers.But it is not so easy to spare energy to find Shura during the war. The salvage work has been carried out for several days, but there is still no response. As far as Yanchi knows, the five Galactica legions are somewhat unstable. Now There are quite important tasks that cannot be escaped, but Yanchi also knows that they wish they could go and bring Lu Shi back.

Alwitt certainly understands the crux of the problem, but he still shook his head: "There is no news yet, we all guess that the shock wave caused by the war caused Shura to leave the orbit of floating in the universe and enter the gravitational field of a certain planet." , fell, there are too many nearby planets, it is very difficult to investigate, not to mention that we cannot risk the lives of other soldiers - if Lu Shi knew this, he would not agree."

Knowing that he was right, Yan Chi just nodded sadly: "Actually, it's good to welcome the Marshal back after the war, so that he can see a new hometown."

Alwitt didn't comment much on this, thought for a while, and asked him: "You have always been very sensitive about life and death recently, have you ever thought about what you would do if I died?"

Yan Chi looked up at him dully, wondering if this was Erwitt's untimely competition for favor or presence, or a different kind of comfort to him, but he hadn't thought about this question, and blurted out smoothly: "You're dead!" At that time, I didn’t exist anymore, so what should I do?”

Alwitt was rarely speechless, and then he recovered and gently guided: "I definitely hope that you are still alive at that time."

Yan Chi was even more straightforward: "What am I doing living so long? Isn't it boring? You man-made people don't understand us natural people. I'm not interested in a long, almost permanent life."

Alwitt vaguely felt that the question had reached a point where it was so miraculous that he could not continue to ask to get the answer, but Yanchi's attitude was taken for granted, which still made him very eager to explore. After thinking about it, he corrected the wording to make the question more rigorous, and continued to ask. : "I mean, what would you do if I died?"

This time, Yanchi can already confirm that Erwitt’s investigation is definitely not doing social research, he is just acting like a baby, and he has a sense of enlightenment after he has committed stupidity many times and finally witnessed the scene of Erwitt’s online live broadcast of stupidity. He patted the table: "Hmph! I knew it, you're naive!"

Seeing that Erwitt seemed very dissatisfied with the naive comment and was about to argue, Yanchi quickly blocked his mouth with his own answer: "But I don't know what will happen, can you take yourself seriously, do you think I can calm down so much that now I am getting used to the feeling of being a widow when my husband died, or do I still think that I can still remember what I said today to count? Maybe I will be sad until I die, or I may leave a sigh of relief for you to avenge. If there is no enemy, it may be To live well may also die in love with you - but you know, this is not what I want, I only want you, without you I will lose everything."

Yan Chi didn't know what was going on, his cold-blooded and ruthless personality hadn't been established yet, and he instantly turned into a crying puppy saying that I can't do it without you, but this is the absolute truth, he said that even he himself was beaten I was so moved that I wanted to cry, and I was moved to think that if he couldn't die then - this is also very possible, the news of Alwitt's death will definitely hurt the whole country, if only the banquet hall is left And Mingguang Palace, the banquet pool is going to die in love, then he is really not worthy of calling himself a national soldier-how should he live a lonely life as a widow, he immediately frightened himself.

Even if Yanchi's associative ability is not very strong, it is still conceivable that he will be in the cold and cold, not to mention that he will never have the chance to talk to Erwitt again... After thinking about it, Yanchi had an epiphany : "What are you pretending, you! You are a binary existence! I don't believe that you don't have a backup on the Internet! You are still dead! What's wrong with you, you scared me to death! You are not allowed to pay attention to me like this in the future!"

Yanchi slammed the table, venting his grievances and sadness just now, Alwitt had an expression of being discovered by you, and explained as if nothing had happened, without distraction at all: "You have thought of it yourself, it's nothing Terrible, well, stop making trouble, your hands hurt."

Yan Chi sat angrily in front of the table and withdrew his hand, glaring at him again and again.He really didn't realize that Erwitt was this kind of person before, and he couldn't say such things casually even if he was joking!I also advised him not to make trouble, is this trouble?

Although there was a lot of unhappiness in his heart, Yanchi still held back and said nothing.He even imagined his own widowhood just now, and seeing that Alwitt is still alive and kicking to make this kind of mess, even though he refuses to admit it, he still feels relieved and thinks it's great. So I didn't get angry very seriously, I just warned him again and again not to do this in the future, and forgot about it.

Elwitt didn't want to scare him when he went to [-], but seeing that he still couldn't forget Lu Shi, who knew he would die one day, and was immersed in grief when he mentioned it, he always felt a little bit brooding. By the way, he asked him One sentence.

The banquet received such a big response, and Elwitt responded very well.

Within a few days, Banquet prepared its weapons and headed for Artemis with the fleet that had traveled from the fallen Galactica to the Venus.

Erwitte met them at the port where Artemis had sent him off.

Lu Shi's body has still not been found, so Elwitt is actually welcoming back the two marshals and their army here.The conferring ceremony was arranged later, and there were still not many witnesses. For ordinary soldiers, this is what they witnessed. The historic scene of Yanchi becoming a marshal was also the first time that the couple officially appeared together in front of everyone. , and also interact.

Yanchi didn't understand this at first, but when he was about to land, more and more people used various reasons to come in and look at him cautiously and calmly, and then looked at the direction of the port with excitement. After a few more times, I understood everything, and I couldn't help laughing, I don't know what they were thinking, and they cared so much for him.For him, this is not the first time that he and Alwitt have appeared together in front of people who know their relationship, but ever since he realized that he is also a marshal, Yanchi has very high requirements on his behavior , Thinking about having to have a short conversation with Alwitt in front of everyone after a while before leaving, I suddenly felt very embarrassed, afraid that I would not grasp the scale.

Logically speaking, in fact, what he does is only a matter of a while, but Yanchi is not what it used to be. Although he will not rely on his power to do his best, he will not shirk his slack in the face of the responsibilities brought by his status, let alone Astoria has already told him that he should pay attention to the public communication with Erwitt, because their marriage is of great representative significance, and it is even a weather vane for the relationship between artificial people and natural people. If the relationship is well known, then Forget it, if there is a problem or misunderstanding, it may cause heated discussions in the society.

In fact, it doesn't matter what Astoria said so well, Yanchi has already realized it from the rumors of the previous marriage news, and his face is very complicated, and he doesn't even know whether he should take the left foot or the right foot later.

He hadn't communicated with Erwitt about this beforehand, and he didn't know whether he was willing to show intimate mutual support, or to be business-like.Erwitt has always cared little about other people's eyes, and he doesn't need to care too much about other people's understanding and ideas, but Yanchi couldn't help but care about Erwitt's reaction, and he was very embarrassed for a while.

The fleet landed one by one, the hatches opened, Banquet had no choice but to bite the bullet and go out.Artemis was sunny, but the air was filled with gunpowder smoke, and it was extremely heavy because of Lu Shi's martyrdom. Feeling the atmosphere, Yan Chi immediately calmed down with some distracting thoughts, and walked down the gangway solemnly.Erwitt and Artemis stood together, still not wearing military uniforms, wearing a pure white long skirt with lace, Yanchi vaguely remembered that she had worn this dress before, her golden curly hair trembled slightly in the breeze, like a light Yun Duo, she also holds a lily in her hand, which is a new species cultivated on Artemis. The flowers are huge and white, and the stalks are slender and hard, so it will neither sink nor sway, and it needs support, which is very important. ornamental flowers.

This was obviously prepared for Lu Shi.

Although the bodies of Lu Shi and Shura have not been found yet, they still have to give them a funeral. After a long period of collective silence, preparations for the funeral finally started when the Fifth Galactica Legion arrived. The banquet pool was designated and actual by Lu Shi. The heirs in the world are all the ones who should answer the ceremony. At this time, he didn't care about how to get along with Erwitt in public. When he walked in front of the two of them, the first thing he did was raise his hand heavily. And a serious salute.

Erwitte and Artemis returned the salute, and Artemis handed him the lily.Yan Chi reached out to take it, and reported in a low voice: "The Fifth Legion of the Galactica has returned from wandering."

Although this is not Sunel, it is not the place where Lu Shi really started his glorious life, but Artemis is also one of the starting points in the past, so it is also very suitable as the hometown of ghosts.

Yan Chi's grief and condolences because of Lu Shi are still very sincere. On his growth path, he can remember clearly every one of those who taught him and helped him. It is difficult for Erwitt and other life mentors to explain the problem clearly and put forward a solution. Yanchi is very grateful to him only on this level.Not to mention that now the only person in the world who might know who Lu Shi once loved is Yanchi.As long as he thinks that the experiment will be successful in a few days, Le Lunai will wake up and get rid of the state of being unable to be free, but Lu Shi...

He couldn't see that day anymore, but when he died, he firmly believed that this day would come, and Yan Chi felt that he wanted to cry.

He also had nightmares for several days because of this, about Erwitte's dedication.Yanchi would definitely be willing if he knew the words, as long as he had to make a choice between his own life and Alwitt's life and death, he would definitely choose to die for Alwitt.As for whether Alwitt is willing to repay them equally, Yanchi actually doesn't care.

He knew in his heart that it was probably impossible, Erwitt was irreplaceable, and he was always rational, Yanchi knew that he shouldn't even think about this question, even if Erwitt was willing, he would definitely not be willing, so Things have become the previous cycle, in order not to let Erwitt do stupid things, he is more likely to die willingly.

Yanchi didn't feel that this was a kind of unequal and unfair. Maybe before he could meet the real Alwitt and even disliked him, he had subtly accepted that Alwitt was a precious treasure of the country. set, so now also learn not to question, and even become one of those silly kids who willingly pay for the treasure at all costs because of the inevitable falling in love with him.

The sense of substitution is too strong, so regarding Lu Shi's death, Yanchi will always be unable to recover for a while, not knowing what he can say, and because he is in Venus, he is surrounded by Galacticians who have deep feelings for Lu Shi , so the emotions fermented, which also deeply infected Yanchi.

Arriving at Artemis, Yanchi realized that this seemed to be the end, and even felt a little bit reluctant. He returned to the administrative area with Erwitt and Artemis, and held a brief ceremony of respecting Lu Shi's unbelief during his lifetime. An atheist funeral, and then it breaks up.

Yanchi felt the slowness of the dispersed crowd.Although everyone was mourning for Lu Shi just now, they couldn't resist their curiosity about how the Marshal and husband get along. Although they were still very sad, it didn't prevent them from watching the gossip and having fun.Yanchi felt very helpless, but he still walked to his side step by step while Alwitt waited patiently.

The two of them had no interaction just now. Yanchi took a step back and stood behind Erwitt consciously. This is a habit and a respect. Erwitt could not remind him to change his position in the atmosphere at that time. It is different now. Already, Artemis couldn't smell the sour and smelly smell of love, and climbed into the car without looking back and ordered the adjutant to leave. The two of them were the only ones standing here blatantly. There was no excuse for the banquet. As soon as he stepped forward and could be reached by Elwitt, he was pulled by the hand.

The corners of Yan Chi's tensed mouth could not help but twitch, and then immediately suppressed it: "Okay, there are so many people."

His voice was very low, and his expression was the same as usual, but his tone was full of coquettishness, with a hint of soft disgust and sweetness that he didn't realize. Alwitt wanted to touch his head, but he couldn't face him in front of many people. His majesty was damaged too much, so he had to use all his strength to pull him towards him.

Yanchi's upper body didn't move, as if he was lagging behind, but his feet obediently walked up to Elwitt, finally stared into his eyes for a moment, had to surrender, and took the initiative to lean over and hug him.

It's been a long time since they hugged each other firmly, and after playing the game of taking off their pants a few times, Yan Chi lost interest and really lost the fun.Not to mention anything else, after hooking on the greedy energy, you can see, touch, eat, scratch your heart, scratch your liver, and feel hunger and thirst. After this emotion passes, Yanchi will hold his face for several days. How can he experience it too many times? ?

As soon as he was embraced by Alwitt, Yanchi felt that he suddenly relaxed a lot. Although he leaned on his shoulder, he was still worried about his image and didn't completely stuff himself in, but he was also very intimate, humming softly. : "Hold tight."

Alwitt has long discovered that every time they meet again after separation, Yanchi can break through the previous bottom line a little bit, make demands, and act coquettishly. Yanchi pays more and more attention to his social status in normal times And the military rank, I really care about holding the posture without losing the etiquette.Although Alwitt always likes to tease him with a blank face, but this is different from the feelings Yanchi himself requires, so he always looks forward to his performance every time.

As soon as Yanchi acted like a baby, Elwitt softened his heart and hugged him vigorously: "Good boy."

Yanchi snorted, feeling that he was already extremely obedient.
