Veteran Cadre and Bug Chief [Interstellar]

In the world six years later, in Zuo Ming's laboratory,

Zuo Ming, who just got up from the console, turned his neck, and his cervical spine, which had been in the same movement for too long, made two crisp sounds, which made him frown.

Raising his hand to press the side of his neck where he was protesting, he turned around and saw the female who was still waiting at the side. Zuo Ming paused suddenly, as if he was very surprised that she was still here. He glanced sideways at the electronic clock beside him and sighed. Tone: "Although I understand your feelings, I said two cycles ago that you should go back to rest. If I remember correctly, there will be an interview tomorrow morning that you must attend."

Yan, who stood aside for a long time, kept looking at an empty corner—that was the place where Qi Fei had disappeared before.

After hearing Zuo Ming's words, Yan Cai turned his gaze to the scientist who also had a slightly tired expression on his face: "Do you have a clue?"

His voice was hoarse when he asked.

Ao Ning, who came with Yan, quickly went to pour a glass of water, and quietly handed it to the officer.

After thanking Ao Ning, he took the water glass, but only took a sip.

He was still waiting for Zuo Ming's answer.

"Yes." Zuo Ming gave an answer that was enough to make Yan's eyes light up, but then he said "but".

This turning point made the heart of the brunette female who had just risen sink down again.

Zuo Ming went on "but" and continued: "The instrument did capture the energy signal when the jump occurred, but the analysis is very complicated and there are too many problems. We must first determine whether he is still in this universe, and then determine the specific time axis coordinates , and finally check the possible planets one by one within the determined specific coordinates, this is... what's wrong with you?!"

Without warning, Yan's body swayed suddenly, Zuo Ming was startled by him, and he took a step forward to help him.

But Ao Ning, who was standing beside Yan, moved faster, he first stabilized Yan: "Are you okay?"

Ao Ning was also frightened by the words. He focused all his attention on the chief for a moment, but he didn't notice that the chief of the Academy of Sciences was a little too late to reach out to help the insects and overlapped with his own.

Zuo Ming's paws pressed on the outside of Ao Ning's forearm, and his slender fingers touched the back of Ao Ning's hand, but he didn't notice it at all. Like Ao Ning, he was only worried about whether Yan was too tired.

Yan is Qi Fei's chosen future partner. Not long after Zuo Ming met Qi Fei, a detailed document including Yan's life experience was sent to Zuo Ming. He went through it again for the background check of the two worms who have the closest relationship with Qi Fei on the entire worm planet.

Zuo Ming and Ozzie have the same attitude. They think that as long as the other party has no major faults in his character, and he really admires Qi Fei, and Qi Fei is willing to accept the other party, then there is no need to interfere too much with the younger generation's emotional affairs, and let them It is best to let nature take its course.

Qi Fei has been teleported away by the Homeless Energy, apart from trying to get Qi Fei back, the strike against the Dai family is also going on intensively.The relationship between Qi Fei and Ao Zuo's family has not been disclosed to the public, he seems to have nothing to do with this disturbance, and it is easy to find a reason why he cannot appear in public for the time being.

But different words.

Yan and the Fifth Legion have been involved in this turmoil. They are one of the key nodes in the entire network, and no mistakes can be made at this juncture.

"Hurry up and go back to rest." Zuo Ming patted "Yan" with his hand, and he felt as if he had patted the back of his hand after he finished.

Zuo Ming glanced at Yan's hand on his forehead, and then at the other's hand that was still holding a water glass: "..."

Females only have a "third leg" and no third hand.

After being slapped by Zuo Ming, Ao Ning realized that his and the other's hands overlapped, and the arm he was supporting Yan stiffened suddenly.

"Sorry." Zuo Ming quickly let go of his hand, Qing Juan's face showed a bit of embarrassment, he was quite embarrassed by his unintentional excessive intimacy.

Ao Ning shook his head and said "It's okay", he asked Zuo Ming not to pay too much attention, but his body was still stiff.

Yan didn't mind that the adjutant, who had temporarily shared part of his weight for him, was stiff. He was completely immersed in the large amount of information that had just poured into his brain, and he had no time to pay attention to what happened in reality.

After a long time, the dense needle-like pain receded slowly like an ebb tide. Yan put down his hand on his forehead, and he felt a little damp coolness on his fingertips. When he looked down, he found that it was the cold sweat from his body.

"How do you feel now?" Zuo Ming saw Yan put down his hands, guessing that the other party was feeling better, so he asked again.

Yan didn't respond to what he and Ao Ning said before, which aggravated the worry of the two worms. They tacitly put aside the embarrassing "overlapping incident" and turned their attention to Yan.

"Same universe." Yan's answer sounded a little haphazard.

Oning was taken aback.

Zuo Ming quickly connected with the content of the initial conversation: "You mean... Qi Fei is still in the present universe?"

Yan nodded, the stinging pain had not subsided completely, and there were still waves of unspeakable pain in his head, which made him raise his hand and pressed his head again.

"But it's not the current time coordinate." Yan frowned and said, "He was on G13 six years ago."

"Is this your guesswork, or is there some basis for it?" Zuo Ming paused, trying to clear his mind, "I have considered the possibility of G13 six years ago, but other than that, it is equally probable. There are 37 other possibilities."

Yan glanced at Zuo Ming with a very inexplicable expression, his eyes turned around between Ao Ning and Zuo Ming who were also puzzled, and said in a low voice: "It's not just guessing, it's because I... remembered .”

"what?!"

"what? What'?"

Ozzie, who had taken a nap in the built-in lounge, just yawned and stepped out of the lounge door, when he heard his friend exclaim "what?", and the sleepiness he still had was scattered with the end of the exclamation. In the air, the whole worm became energetic.

Ozzie glanced at Yan and Ao Ning who were still in the laboratory, and said the same thing to Zuo Ming: "Why are you still here? What time is it? Go back and rest."

It was Zuo Ming who rejected Ozzie's concern, "No, wait, they can't go back yet."

Ozzie: "Huh?"

Zuo Ming signaled Ozzie to stand beside them, and he turned his gaze back to Yan: "What do you mean by 'remembering'?"

"I don't remember all the memories about G13. The details of many events are fragmented, and I only remember the general outline of what happened." With his hand still on his head, Yan took a deep breath, "But just now Just now, some of my memories were suddenly complete, and I knew how I found the research base with my seriously injured body."

"Qi Fei appeared there."

Ozzie didn't expect that he would get such breaking news after waking up from a nap, and he became serious: "Are you sure it's a cub?"

"Sure." Yan whispered, "I only recalled the part where he found me and took me to the research base. He hasn't told me yet... He didn't tell the 'me' who he was at that time, but 'I' ' His family card and regimental insignia were found."

Yan thought about it carefully, closed his eyes slightly, recalled it, and was suddenly completed, and added: "There is also that coat. The 'I' touched his coat six years ago. It was this morning. The one he wore when he went out."

Zuo Ming pondered for a while: "Is there any other relevant information?"

"Yes." As he spoke, his expression became subtly unnatural.

The other three worms in the laboratory were waiting for Yan's next words. The worm chief poked at the place with a strange expression for a moment, as if recalling something that made him feel uncomfortable, his face sank terribly after being unnatural. .

"I'm sorry." Yan said suddenly, "I want to excuse you for a while and go to the bathroom next to me."

The brain has updated a lot of information without authorization, and the messy memory puzzle has found another piece inexplicably. It does take a little time to integrate all the information that has suddenly increased in the brain.

Zuo Ming thought that Yan needed to "calm down", he nodded understandingly: "Please go ahead, there are disposable cleaning towels in the cabinet on the right side, you can use them as you like."

"Thank you." Yan finished his thanks in a hurry, turned around and walked quickly to the bathroom.

Ao Ning wanted to follow up when Yan turned around, but Ozzie held him back and waved his hand: "He needs a little space to think alone."

So Ao Ning stopped and stayed with Ao Qi Zuo Ming.

The officer temporarily left the field, and the target who had been paying attention for a long time disappeared for a while. Ao Ning stood in front of the two young elders speechlessly, and suddenly found Zuo Ming's gaze towards him, and he immediately recalled the previous "overlapping incident" ", the feeling of being at a loss when he was away for a cycle turned around and killed him, and fixed him in place, and his whole body froze again uncontrollably.

Ozzie was thinking about the completion of the memory that Yan said, and suddenly felt that the surrounding atmosphere was not right. He raised his eyes and saw Zuo Ming staring at the Ao family junior in front of him, and Ao Ning seemed to have become a dead insect .

From the bottom of his heart, Ao Ning silently hoped that Yan would return soon to help him get out of this delicate predicament. His silent call was blocked outside the door of the bathroom. His chief was standing in front of the half-length mirror in the bathroom, looking carefully at Monitor the state of your instrument.

Hair - no problem.

Clothes - no problem.

Overall cleanliness - no issues either.

The stern-faced Insect Chief confirmed each item one by one.

It was clear that he had passed every item, but his expression did not relax.

Because the problem is the past "he" who stayed on G13 six years ago, not himself who is currently in the world six years later.

Yan who hurried into the bathroom was not at all looking for a space to be alone and organize his thoughts, but because he had only completed part of his memories and was shocked, he urgently needed to take a look at himself in the state of "seeing".

Since getting to know Qi Fei, Yan has been conscientiously managing his image. He was afraid that when he appeared in front of his beloved lover that day, he would be in a bad state and let Qi Fei see his bad side. He thought that his image should be not bad. He succeeded and tried his best to maintain his decent image in front of Qi Fei. As a result, once his memory about G13 was suddenly completed, he realized that he had met Qi Fei once six years ago—or in the same way. His worst image!

According to the data records, I stayed on G13 for a whole month, and Chief Zong boldly speculated that Qi Fei might also stay on G13 for a whole month. What was in his mind was an idea that had nothing to do with the progress of the relationship between the two parties, the principle of jumping, and conspiracy and conspiracy.

Yan stared at his well-groomed self in the mirror, and thought painfully—did he take a bath in that month?

The subsequent memory has not yet been completed, and Yan has no way of knowing the follow-up content.

On G13, which was six years away from where he was, the "self" whose appearance was extremely inappropriate in his eyes was holding a text entry device, happily communicating with Qi Fei.

The text entry device was refitted from waste. Qi Fei first dismantled the traditional mechanical keyboard on the abandoned console, and then dismantled an electronic screen with aging circuits in the outage monitoring room nearby. These two items were repaired with the parts that came, and they were connected together to make a recorder that only has the function of text entry.Considering that Yan's eyes are temporarily blind at this time, and he may not be able to accurately hit the keys, Qi Fei also used a particle vibrating knife to engrave characters on each key, forcibly turning the keyboard into a "barrier-free keyboard".

Yan Wei was stunned for a long time by this hand-reformed text entry device. He groped for the indents of characters specially carved on the keyboard. Seal ten thousand words for review.

Qi Fei finally told Yan his name, and he found that Yan took him for granted as a female, and since "Qi" did not belong to a well-known family name on the insect star, Yan seemed to have made some assumptions about himself. , regarded him as an innocent civilian who was in the ministry and couldn't help himself.

Feeling dumbfounded by Yan's conjectures, but couldn't help inducing the other party to type out all the conjectures, Qi Fei saw a brand new self in Yan's words——

He is powerful and talented. He has just entered the military and worked hard, but his foundation is still shallow. Because of his outstanding talent and ordinary family background, he was treated coldly. He was sent to a difficult place to perform missions, but he was not told the details of the deeper missions. Maybe some member of the family thinks that he is in his way and is trying to get rid of him.

Qi Fei pieced together the whole image of himself in Yan's heart, he was speechless for a while, and just wanted to slap the other person on the head.

The topic unknowingly returned to the previous misunderstanding, Yan once again solemnly apologized to Qi Fei in the form of words, and he added the words embarrassingly: [Sorry, I only thought of being female at that time, you must be You did it because you wanted to humiliate me. 】

Qi Fei thought about what Yan said for a while, and he narrowed his eyes unobtrusively.

"If." Qi Fei said, "If I'm not a female, or even a female, what do you think I'm going to do?"

Yan seemed to be stunned by this question, he thought about it seriously, and replied sincerely: [Then you must have taken a high-level charm potion by mistake, or drank too much alcohol. 】

Qi Fei: "Why do you think so?"

Yan said with a bit of self-deprecation: [Because normal males are not interested in me. 】

Qi Fei felt that he was facing the risk of being kicked out of the "normal" range, he paused, and continued to ask: "...Then suppose there are male insects really interested in you?"

Yan Zhang looked in Qi Fei's direction, and typed on the keyboard very seriously: [Then he must be abnormal. 】

Qi Fei: "..."

Ah.

The author has something to say: Yan: [A worm blood book begged me six years ago to take a bath. 】
