Most Wanted [Interstellar]

Chapter 10

After the conversation that day ended, both of them deliberately avoided the last topic.Alvin continued to lie in his mobile wheelchair and sleep late, while Schlieffen was vigorously transforming their living environment.

SWEEPS-98167[7] The astronomical monitoring station covers an area of ​​less than [-] square meters. Many of the rooms are equipment storage rooms. The only bedroom is the one where Schlieffen lives now.In addition, this monitoring station has a bathroom, a kitchen, and a pretend dining room.

This planet is far away from the star and has no light. When the geological movement is violent, the Juliotis will emit a little blue light, which is so weak that it can be ignored.According to Alwin, there is also a geological survey vehicle in the warehouse. If Schlieffen wants to, he can drive it to look at a further place.

"A place farther away?"

"There are more than 300 kinds of unique microorganisms on this planet besides Jubilata..."

"Thank you, I don't want to go." Schlieffen threw the activation card back into the drawer.

"I remember that there is a fault in the rock formation containing hematite three kilometers away, and that place..."

"The bed cover should be dry, I'm going to collect the bed cover." Schlieffen walked out of the room and closed the door.

"He doesn't like it." Ivan (antique robot) said.

"...well." Alvin said.

After that, Schlieffen spent about [-] hours cleaning the whole house, making the old house glow from floor to wall.He also tidied up the storage room, arranged the dry powder of nutrients in order of shelf life, checked the water source channel and exhaust channel, and cleaned the dust in the heating equipment.

During this time, Alvin slept a total of three times in his wheelchair.

"Hi! Hi!" Schlieffen came up to him and snapped his fingers, "Wake up!"

Alvin opened his eyes in a daze: "How far have you tossed..."

"What are these?"

Alvin saw a pile of scrap metal in front of him, probably collected by Schlieffen from the outer room.

"In the past, there were mainly mineral detection and inspection equipment, and some simple astronomical observation equipment. What you find now is the alloy frame used to fix large equipment at that time."

"Can I take them apart?"

"These are the public property of the federal government... but... I think it's okay." Alvin didn't know what he was going to do, "I suggest you take a nap before that, it seems that at least twenty hours have passed gone."

Schlieffen ignored his suggestion, and rolled up his sleeves: "Would you like to watch Alpha tear the iron plate?"

"This is not iron, this is an alloy." Alvin corrected.

"...please... I was obviously telling a joke just now."

"Oh..." Alvin nodded, "Haha."

Feeling helpless, Schlieffington took out electric pliers from the toolbox and began to disassemble the alloy plate: "You must not have been very popular with alpha before, right?"

"What do you mean by popular?"

"The sex ratio of the Academy Federation is 1:1:1. It's easy to find a spouse in this environment, right? Is there any alpha looking for you as a spouse?"

"do not know."

"do not know?"

"Yeah, I don't know, I don't care about them."

"why?"

"They can't tear the iron plate with their hands."

"Hey..." Shilieffen's mouth turned up unconsciously, and he looked up at him, "You are sexual harassment."

"No, I'm obviously joking." Alvin blinked his black eyes, "The alphas of the Academy Federation are generally retired soldiers, and they are all excellent. When the Omega Association arranges spouses, they will generally give priority to them. Yes As far as alpha is concerned, the omega of the academy federation is not the best choice."

"why?"

"Because it's hard for us to get an appointment." Alvin roughly calculated, "For example, I work nearly twenty hours a day. For me, sleeping is the most comfortable thing, and I prefer to come alone. Going alone, the life of two people makes me a little unimaginable."

"What you are living now is the life of two people."

"Yes, yes, yes!" After getting acquainted with him, Alvin also began to amused him with his old-fashioned jokes, "How many omega envy me, the alpha who spent two lives with me is not only muscular and can tear steel plates with his hands, but also a favorite Literary young men who read poetry."

Schlieffen gave him a blank look.

"The life of prison guards is very hard, especially for the chief who has made great achievements. When Oswald was built, the estimated capacity was only 3 people. Now there are close to 8000 prisoners. To [-] people, there is only [-] in logistics, and the three shifts are simply too busy. I am tired, and I still live with the dark side of society every day. If I don’t read some poems and feel the beauty, how can I survive?”

"I'm a little curious about this. Is there anyone more shady than me, a first-degree criminal?"

"Before I give an example, you better say how dark you are."

Alvin thought about the wording: "What I'm about to do is beyond the comprehension of most people."

"The answer is clever." Schlieffen buried his head and continued to work on his work, "To be honest, if it weren't because you are a first-degree criminal, I wouldn't talk to you about that. I only went to Oswald that year. When I was still too young, I went to chat with the prisoners when I had nothing to do. Hmph, it’s too stupid to think about it now. Alvin, darkness and not being understood are not the same thing, darkness is bad, and some people are really bad.”

Alvin's expression showed that he didn't quite believe Schlieffen's words.

Schlieffen had no choice but to give an example: "At that time, I seemed to have been working for more than a year. One day, a death row prisoner came. Kindly, I couldn't restrain my curiosity and asked him what crime he committed, you know what he said."

"What?" Alvin pricked up his ears.

"He lives on a farm on a not-so-remote planet, where helpers are produced according to seasonal changes. He is a small farmer. In the three years before his arrest, his helpers kept disappearing, and he was finally reported. Just discovered……"

"He killed them?"

"Wrong guess, he ate them."

"..." Alvin frowned.

"Do you know what he said to me that day?" Schlieffen shrugged helplessly, "He told me that the best thing to eat in a human being is the meat from the skin, which is tender and chewy when it is peeled off and roasted while the human is alive. Head. Just thinking of his bland expression when he said that makes me sick!"

"..."

"And he also murdered his wife, an omega, because he was tired of eating beta and alpha, and wanted to taste the taste of omega. If it wasn't for the omega committee to investigate the cause of his wife's death, he might still be at large. Fortunately You chose an empty planet, don't you think?"

"..."

"First-degree criminal, you're about to vomit, let me change a happy topic, um, complain about the superior?"

Alvin quickly agreed.

"Our officer is a colonel. He is a young and promising type. It is said that he retired from the front line of the outermost galaxy. It may be because the living standard of that front line is too miserable. The first half of his life is reproduced on the Internet. He removed all the office chairs in the prison area. When we were on duty, we were not allowed to sit. If we stayed in the monitoring room one day, we had to stand for ten hours. In addition, he also banned the only library in the prison area. But these are not the point, the point is that he loves to lecture and has bad breath!"

"This is the smell of alpha pheromone." Don't you alphas dislike each other's smell?Alvin thought.

"...The agreement is to complain about the superiors. It is very immoral for you to expose it like this."

"Okay, bad breath!"

"He may really be able to tear steel plates with his hands. I think he wants to tear us apart every time he lectures. He also likes to quote Marshal Johannes."

"Hahaha!" Alvin laughed, "Johannes! Hahaha!"

"You know the Marshal?"

"Yes, yes, I know that his words are very long, long, provocative, and boastful. Whenever he speaks, I want to run away. When I first met him, he should still be a virgin. Later he He seems to be married, and after hearing the news of his marriage, I really sympathize with his wife."

"I don't think his wife needs your sympathy. After all, the marshal is very handsome."

Alvin shook his head to express his disapproval: "He likes to yell so much that even our president won't let him go. Every time he yells, he will bring his face closer. It feels like they are about to kiss."

"Oh! President Planck? You said you are his student! It seems that you have a good impression of him!"

"What kind of affection can students have for their teacher? Do you like your teacher? He is also a touching existence, because he looks gentle and likes to make some speeches about equal rights, so there are indeed many omegas who have a little illusion about him. , but he does not respond to any feelings, he is celibate... plus these 50 years, it will be almost 200 years... I even helped him return the love letter back then."

"Omega's love letter???" Schlieffen was shocked.

"Yes, there are a lot of them. I was the one who returned them at the time. I was exhausted."

"Oh, how many people have to envy him, he asked an omega to help him reject other omegas," Schlieffen searched for Planck in the existing information, and a photo of Planck's work appeared on the display , "It looks so good! Alvin!"

"If I can see him again, I will convey this message to you. You don't need to thank me, but it's more than 20 hours now, even alpha should sleep."

This time, Schlieffen put down the tools in his hand and stood up: "I'll take a shower and go to bed, you should go to bed early too."

"Thank you." Alvin turned the wheelchair and put his head in a comfortable position, "Good night."

"Good night."

After a while, the sound of running water in the bathroom came from behind, and after a while, the door of the bedroom was slammed shut.Alvin opened his eyes: "Ivan, help me connect the nerve plug."

"Nerve charge fluctuates." Schlieffen's chip activated, and Owen reported to him.

This is the real result of Schlieffen's hard work today. He removed a micro-charge sensor in the room and fastened it to the main circuit. When the nerve electrical signal passes through the main circuit, his biochip can detect it. fluctuation.

Schlieffen, who was lying on the bed, gently got up from the bed: "Owen, check the direction of the signal."

"Lieutenant, the signal receiver you installed today can only detect fluctuations."

"Thank you." Schlieffen walked to the door and leaned his ear against the door, but it was very quiet outside without any sound.

"You have doubts about him, Lieutenant, and you don't trust him as much as you appear?"

"I couldn't find his landing craft, my mecha was gone, and he didn't say anything about it, which I think is very problematic."

"But you decided he wasn't a bad guy."

"Owen, human beings are very complicated, and those who do bad things are not necessarily bad people."

"Lieutenant, do you really think he won't let you survive?"

"To be precise, I do think he is incapable. I have already accepted the fact that I can't survive. I checked the storage room. The dry powder of nutrients has only been stored for three years. This should be the limit of my life, but before that , I need to make a judgment through my own efforts, and judge what he is doing, whether it is just because he is not understood, or he is really planning to eat people...Record the current time."

欧文看了一眼显示屏——公历时间7017年6月18日16时24分。

At this moment, the special line for the guests of the military department——Adlon arrived in the outer space of the capital Titan. They will land in 10 minutes. The spacecraft shuts down the curvature engine, puts away the flight wings, and starts to shut down the communication equipment to prepare to enter the planet. Berthing port deceleration channel.

Annie bid farewell to Caroline, and went back to the pressure adjustment cabin to sit down alone. Before the communication indicator light went out, she glanced at Captain Galen in front of her.Landing was nothing to the alpha, so he lay in his seat and fell asleep.Annie stretched out her hand to help him pull the safety buckle. It was very natural. She didn't know that in about 10 minutes, there would be a big gift for her and everyone on Titan.
