Veteran Cadre and Bug Chief [Interstellar]

Qi Fei often feels that there may be a Mariana trench between him and Yan's thinking, and this trench does not exist for a long time. When he was unprepared, he suddenly appeared and swayed for a while, making him stagger in shock.

Just like this moment.

It is true that the skill of not changing face that has been practiced for many years makes this "staggering" only happen in the bottom of his heart. At first glance, Qi Fei still has an expressionless and indifferent face, but his arm that was originally relaxed and hugged the little hairy ball was heard. After "Wang", he froze for a moment, accidentally revealing a little shock in his heart.

The little hairball in his arms was surprised that the arm it was leaning on was suddenly no longer comfortable, and it "owed" twice again to express its protest against the change of the environment.Hearing this baby-like protest, Qi Fei quickly let go of his strength, let the extremely firm arm muscles relax after being tensed, and restored the little guy's arm environment to be stable and secure.

For a while, Qi Fei looked at Yan who was squatting on the ground silently, not knowing how to react for the time being, while Chief Chong quietly looked at the little hair ball with a small head protruding from Qi Fei's arms, and refused to have anything to do with Qi Fei. React before reacting.

Huskies are medium-sized dogs, and four-month-old puppies should no longer look like fur balls, but Xiao Hu’s brothers and sisters are deeply influenced by their parents’ free love, and they are all good at “dog teasing” when they grow up. And it only teases those stray dogs who live in no fixed place, and the puppies born are all "strings".The blood of the handsome dog has reached the little fur ball in Qi Fei's arms, and only one-eighth of it is left. The little hair ball is far from the husky in appearance, and only inherited a pair of ancestral blue eyes. The ignorant blue eyes are wide open, and they are curiously looking at the Zerg who is looking at it.

Feeling the struggle of the little guy in his arms, Qi Fei understood the other party's desire to get off the ground. He bent down and put the puppy on the ground, and he also squatted down.

As a result, the level between Qi Fei and Yan was immediately the same.

At the same height, Qi Fei could see the collar on Yan's neck more clearly.

The collar that originally belonged to a medium-sized dog was worn around the neck by Chief Worm. After all, it was a little wider. The adjustment buckle was adjusted inwards several times, and the extra belt passed through the metal loop and was neatly collected behind the neck.

After getting off the ground, the puppy first shook its soft lanugo hair, then kicked the limbs that had been curled up for a long time, and then followed the weird "woof" it just heard, and walked hesitantly towards the person who made the sound go.

After the pup got close to Yan, he sniffed his breath suspiciously. His wet little nose poked a small wet mark on Yan's army trousers. His little head in front of his knee, and then he heard Qi Fei ask: "What are you thinking?"

Trying to leap over the chasm independently is one way, but it is too risky, and it is very easy to accidentally fall to death during the leap. Qi Fei decided to use a safer method to bridge the thinking gap between him and Yan—such as directly asking .Rely on effective verbal communication to build a bridge of communication.

Hearing the question, there was silence for a while.

Without paying attention, I obeyed the little bug's claws that were eager to move in my heart, and put on a collar under the impulsive trend. I finally made a good mental construction, but the hastily built "tofu dregs project" was struck down by the puppy It's all in a mess.

Yan Zai had been staring at the puppy when Qi Fei was staring at him just now, he was not really interested in this little hairball, he just felt that he was about to be overwhelmed by embarrassment, and he hardly dared to raise his eyes to meet Qi Fei's gaze .

"I..." After holding back for a long time, only one syllable came out.

But Qi Fei was very patient, he continued to wait.

After a while, Chief Chong, who had barely reworked his psychological construction, finally spoke again. His voice was originally cold, and there was a chill in his voice when he spoke calmly, but at this moment, the coldness in his voice melted away. Clean, with a low and gentle tone, as if admitting a serious mistake to Qi Fei.

Yan said: "Our lifespan should be the same. If you want, I will accompany you in the future... I just want to express this to you."

The collar untied from Xiaoha, who has been devoted to his duty for more than ten years, is like a token bearing the responsibility of "accompanying". It was carried by Qi Fei's side, although Qi Fei's original intention of carrying it was to keep it as a souvenir. , but Yan picked it up and put it on himself.For Yan, the process of putting on the collar is like a silent ceremony, symbolizing that he has since taken over the responsibility called "companionship".

But the ceremony was incomplete, and it lacked a little recognition.

If Qi Fei disagrees with Yan's behavior and refuses to hand over the "accompanying" seat that has been vacant for a long time, then Chief Chong's behavior of quietly putting on the collar will become a stupid joke.

The person who holds the power of judgment has not yet spoken, and he feels that he should have become a joke. He reflects on his impulse in Qi Fei's silence, and feels that he is simply stupid.

The innocent and ignorant little hairball couldn't feel any change in the atmosphere, it only felt that the big hand that was softly touching its head gradually stiffened, but it didn't move away, and continued to buckle on its head like an iron cover.Refusing this uncomfortable touch, it shook its head and retreated from Yan's claws, and ran back to Qi Fei's side with four short legs.

Yan squatted on the carpet in front of Qi Fei's bed. The carpet had soft and thick fluff. The puppy's paws stepped on the carpet lightly, and every time he stepped on it, there was a shallow plum blossom mark.His gaze has unconsciously drooped down, only staring at the small plum blossom print on the carpet.

Qi Fei didn't let Yan wait for too long, he quickly broke the short silence, and announced the verdict to the only hearing person: "You should take it down."

Word:"……"

This was clearly the answer I expected, but when I actually heard it with my own ears, frustration still rose from the bottom of my heart, and quickly spread to every inch of my nerves.Yan knew that he should raise his hand to take off the collar immediately, so as not to leave a bad impression on Qi Fei who was waiting for him to take it off, but his hand was firmly fixed in place like a sculpture, as if it had been poured with plastic material , I couldn't lift it up for a long time.

A dry and warm hand suddenly stretched out to the side of his neck, Yan suddenly raised his eyes and found that Qi Fei was staring at him with a little worry.

It was the opponent's hand that landed on the side of the neck.

Not sure what Qi Fei was thinking at the moment, Yan remained motionless, letting that hand touch the collar on the side of his neck.

Qi Fei's previous attention was all attracted by the "Wow". After Ai Ai uttered the declaration of companionship during the period of the chief officer, he lost his focus. He belatedly remembered something important.

Fumbling for the loop on the collar, Qi Fei frowned: "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

He didn't understand why, but he shook his head honestly: "No."

Realizing that Qi Fei's hand was pulling the belt inserted into the metal loop, Yan hesitated for a moment, but boldly raised his paw, and held down the hand that was about to untie his collar: "I don't feel any discomfort."

What was not said later was - so can he continue to wear it?

Qi Fei understood the unfinished words, but his hand was still firmly in place: "To be on the safe side, it's safer to untie it."

Safety?

Yan Wei Qi Fei was taken aback by his choice of words.

Qi Fei noticed the suspicious gaze cast by Chief Insect, and he paused: "...This is an insect repellent collar."

Word:"……!"

The greening in the suburbs is well constructed, providing a natural breeding ground for all kinds of mosquitoes, where all kinds of insects that are rare in cities can be found here.Xiaoha was a dog with not too short hair and loved to roll around in the garden. All the decorations he carried with him had strong insect repellent effect.

The insect repellent function of the smart collar will only be activated after it is properly worn. Although the advanced insect race that has evolved into a high-level life form should not be compared with the original insects, but tracing back to the source, they are barely the same race, and do not want to A certain insect chief became the first insect to bravely try the earth's insect repellent products, and Qi Fei quickly took off the collar while he was stunned.

Yan felt his neck go empty when the collar was removed.

It was only a few minutes ago that the collar was put on, but the skin around the neck seemed to have adapted to being surrounded, and after the collar was taken off, it felt empty and uncomfortable.

Yan blinked slowly, his eyes shifted to the left, Qi Fei's hand was still on his left shoulder and neck, and he was carefully inspecting the skin covered by the collar for abnormalities.

This little episode about "repelling insects" successfully diverted from the topic just now.

Yan Jingjing watched Qi Fei's side face, unable to guess whether the other party deliberately skipped the judgment step, intending to let the trial hang in the balance.

Wanting to ask Qi Fei's true thoughts on the topic of "companionship" again, but afraid of hearing the refusal to answer, the words of the question spun around Yan's mouth twice, and finally swallowed it down.

Footsteps sounded from far to near in the corridor outside the door. The footsteps were much lighter than the guards who had come to report earlier, but they were far from being inaudible to those inside the house.But neither Qi Fei nor Yan noticed it.

Zuo En walked to the door of Qi Fei's room with a half-finished packing list. His packing had basically been completed, and he was about to ask Qi Fei how the progress was going.

Qi Fei's door is the same as the main door of the main house, and it is not locked after entering. The door will automatically open after the visitor enters the infrared sensing area.

Before entering the door, Zuo En was still looking at the list in his hand. He walked in and said, "My side is almost finished. Do you want to go down and check again? If there is no problem, I will let them start moving to the lander."

Having said that, Zuo En raised his head, and saw Qi Fei and Yan's gestures at a glance. His right foot, which was about to move forward, suddenly stopped in mid-air: "Cough, you... Is it inconvenient for you?" ?”
