"Mom, first of all, I hope you will never see this video. I hope that what I say now can be told through my own mouth. I will describe what a magical place H16 is, and I will also tell you how light-speed flight is. What kind of stimulation, and more importantly, when I come back to you, all the experiences that happened here have already allowed me to get a good job in the government, so that I can have more money to support my father. Need medical expenses. Of course, if you see this video, it means that you may never be able to see me, but you can rest assured that the government will pay a large amount of compensation to the family, enough to cure Dad’s illness.

Mom, I have worked hard all these years, and finally, I hope you will never see this video, love you little Azusa. "

"Sir, I'm done recording." Chen Zi pressed the end button and looked at the expressionless private next to him.

The soldier waved Chen Zi to let her go out, picked up the microphone and called coldly: "Next."

When Chen Zi walked out of the room, Wendy from the next room also came out at the same time. Wendy was the person who took over the management of the J-type crew after Joe passed away, and was also Chen Zi's roommate. Wendy's expression seemed to be a little heavy.

"Chen, are you recording a letter or..." Wendy asked cautiously, "Last words."

"I sent a letter back to my family." Chen Zi smiled and asked, "What about you?"

Wendy frowned, and replied, "Oh, the same as you."

"Then let's come back together." Chen Zi walked up to Wendy, polished the military badge hanging on Wendy's chest, turned around and walked to the item storage area, holding a box in his hand with a name engraved on it "Joe Kent".

"But let's go first." Chen Zi looked at the Sun Chaser under Xiyang, under the huge guy, the base ground crew was on standby, and the volunteers were walking from the boarding passage to the cabin one after another. , Under the sun, they are as small as a group of ants. They climb slowly. When they reach the Sun, the gravitational force generated by the Sun attracts them again. At this time, the people who log in are really parallel like ants. with the ground.

After Chen Zi and Wendy went out, they also joined the boarding team, and there was still a long queue in front of the small message room behind them. Those people with dreams were about to set off to the unknown, life or death, What will happen tomorrow is always unknown, all people can do is to leave the last image, maybe they lost the right to live on a sunny afternoon, only this image can represent that they have been here and lived...

This was also the last moment Mo Yunshu stayed in the dormitory. She had almost no feelings for this base. Soldiers always stayed in one place like this for a while, and then rushed to another position.

The monster that Natalie showed her early in the morning was difficult for her to digest for a while, but going to the sky on the Sun Chase is her current job, and this is also Mo Yunshu's greatest responsibility now. She looked at the neatly arranged captains around her. There were also epaulettes that symbolized identity, Mo Yunshu resolutely picked them up and brought them to the mirror.

She looked at herself in the mirror. Fortunately, her face was not tired. She put on the white shirt, tied the black tie in front of the collar meticulously, and finally put on the blue uniform outside. No matter if you belong to the army, you still have to wear the epaulets, button up one by one from the bottom, and finally wear the white military cap that symbolizes the captain.

What needs to be faced cannot always be escaped.

----

Although the appearance of the Chaser and the Pluto are basically the same, they are less than one-tenth of the Pluto after all, and the command room is too small. Mo Yunshu still remembers that the system logistics area he managed on the Pluto was very fast. Catch up with the command room.Mo Yunshu looked around the small command room for her. In the middle was the flight console. The projection area of ​​the command room was also in front of the console. There were four positions there, which were reserved for Chen Zi and her team. They will be in charge of the navigation along the way. On the left side of the console is the fighter group headed by Wendy. Under the transformation of Natalie and herself, the few J-class and Shield-class fighters can already be unmanned. Remote operation, and finally the management team headed by Weir will manage the internal affairs of the fleet through Alpha to ensure the safety of personnel and logistics reserves.

Mo Yunshu walked in front of her team members. This was the first time in their lives, maybe the only time, and maybe the last time they took such a flight. Mo Yunshu stood in the middle of the command room and greeted them very solemnly. They raised their hands in salute, and all the people raised their hands in salute skillfully. The moment they put on their uniforms and stepped into the ship, they are no longer those girls and teenagers, they will be the hope of mankind!

But Mo Yunshu didn't say those righteous words. She asked everyone to sit down and walked to her own position, the podium set up at the back of the command room.This is Mo Yunshu's first time as a captain, but it does not mean that this is the first time she sits on this chair. In the past, on the Scarlet Storm, Wendisha would openly let her sit in his commander's chair On board, occasionally a ship would rest at a station. At that time, there was no one in the command cabin of the Scarlet Storm, and Windisa even let herself sit on her lap.

Now, there is no Crimson Storm, no Windisa, only my solitary self is left on this chair.

"Mo, are you okay?" A familiar voice.

"I'm fine with Natalie, the Sun Chaser is about to launch, shouldn't you go back to your room now?" Mo Yunshu didn't look up, she didn't want Natalie to notice her mood swings at this time.

"If you feel unwell, I will stop the launch." Natalie originally wanted to come in to see the situation before the launch, but the first thing she saw after entering the command room was the sadness on Mo Yunshu's face , she knew that for Mo Yunshu, it would not be easy to go back again.

Mo Yunshu calmed down and stood up straight away. Natalie was half a head taller than her, but her aura was always higher than Natalie.

"I don't need you to be like this. The expeditionary army has never been weak, nor does it need pity from others." Mo Yunshu leaned forward and put his hands on the podium. Natalie always followed her too much. It's not like a kind of concern, but like a kind of pity.

But immediately Mo Yunshu softened her voice again. She seemed to be able to control her situation better than before, including Natalie in front of her. From her eyes, she knew that the other party was really concerned. Mo Yunshu vomited deeply In one breath, he said softly to Natalie: "I know you care about me. Now that you have chosen me to be your captain, can you trust me and yourself."

Natalie looked at the persistence in Mo Yunshu's eyes and had to let go of her original thoughts. It seemed that she was thinking too much. Mo Yunshu was not someone who was easily manipulated by PDST. She reached out to Mo Yunshu's hat to help her Adjusting the brim of the hat, he smiled and said, "Of order, my captain."

"Go back to your room. The atmosphere is talking about something." Mo Yunshu walked out of the podium, and politely sent Natalie out of the command room. Looking at the background of Natalie's gradual departure, Mo Yunshu felt I felt a bit of regret, if we had known each other a few years earlier, maybe the two would have become friends.

The launch time of the Sun Chaser was getting closer, and the atmosphere in the command room became more and more tense. Mo Yunshu sat on the podium and watched the split-screen situation of each department, and gave some guidance to her team members appropriately, at least those inside the Sun Chaser. There is no problem in operation.

Then the signal on the main screen was connected, which was connected to Vandenberg's launch base. The old face on the opposite side of the screen was the commander of this base—General Lear. Even Mo Yunshu knew that he was a young man. Some launched soldiers from the grassroots and climbed to high-ranking generals step by step.

"Sunday, this is the Vandenberg Space Launch Base, how are you doing now?"

"Respond to Vandenberg, everything is ready on the Day by Day." After Mo Yunshu finished speaking, she pushed the screen into full view, and her team also cooperated with Mo Yunshu to reply.

"The deck is cleared, the hatches are all closed, and all personnel are ready for launch."

"Engine temperature standard, daily air pressure standard...all instruments are ready."

"Turbo on the top, turbine on the underbelly, the left and right power systems are ready and ready to launch at any time."

Lear couldn't help nodding his head for the courage of these young people, and he said in a steady voice: "Fan den Bao Base, the rocket propellant has been filled, all the ground personnel have been evacuated, and there is no obstruction in the sky... Sun Chaser, is it Confirm launch."

Mo Yunshu nodded: "The Chaser Sun requests launch." At the same time, Mo Yunshu activated the system on the podium, and the same words were projected in all the rooms: launch preparation, followed by the words changing into numbers...

"10...9...8...

7...6...5...

4...3...2...'

Even though the Sun Chaser was huge, under the aftereffect of such an impact, everyone buckled their seat belts tightly, and the smoke generated by the burning under the Sun Chaser billowed and rose like a huge wave. , this huge hull is chasing the sun to a higher place just like its name.

"The first-level power propulsion is over, and the second-level power is ignited..."

The people sitting by the window watched the sky getting closer and closer, and the clouds were right beside them, but they were thrown down again in an instant.

"The second-level power propulsion is over, and the third-level power is ignited.."

The earth also became smaller and smaller, and the horizon became rounder and rounder, until the endless land underfoot became a huge sphere.

The broadcast in the Sunscalar continuously broadcasts the progress situation, and the sky shown in the window also changes from the original white to blue, and finally everything in the atmosphere becomes dark suddenly. Similarly, except for the news sent by the Sunscrew, All the people are quiet and silent. No matter what kind of mood you start with, at least now there is a deep uneasiness in your heart, which is as secret as the busyness in the universe, faint and difficult to detect.

"Report to the captain, the Sun Chaser has entered space, and will enter the course orbit in 1 minute." Chen Zi controlled the operation of the hull.

"Full speed." Mo Yunshu looked at the projected route, Chen Zi's driving was very proficient.

"Chen Zi, inform all the staff that they have entered space and can return to normal working conditions." Mo Yunshu continued to order, and checked all the data indicators again. After the daily number confirmed that it was in orbit, Mo Yunshu also vomited lightly in one breath.

"Received." Chen Zi signaled to the assistant beside him, and the broadcast sounded again on the Daily Number.

"Attention all members of the Chaser, we have entered the route, everyone, please resume your normal work, repeat again..."

Mo Yunshu unfastened her seat belt, opened her hands and stretched her body. She slowly walked towards the window, but outside the window was a dark universe, and the moon was not far away. It hung there alone, and she could even see it clearly. to every trench in Bailey Crater.

Four years later, she came back here again, to this icy universe.

Mo Yunshu knew that she would go further and further, leaving the moon behind, leaving Mars behind, and finally leaving the entire solar system behind, and the Sun Chaser would chase the sun back one day, but she knew very well that she would not in this way.

Mo Yunshu felt a lump in his throat, and finally he was going back to that star field, and finally going back to Wendisha's side.
