Merit Book·Xinghai

Although Lin Qingge and Lin Qingsi are brothers, they are completely different.Lin Qingsi has a high position and authority. Even if he stands there silently, even if he has a gentle smile on his face, he can still make people feel a kind of inexplicable deterrence and ubiquitous pressure. He didn't even dare to raise his head to speak in front of him.Although he looked warm and polite when he greeted everyone at the airport, Mu Xiaohu instinctively felt that this person seemed to be shrouded in a bottomless fog, making it impossible to see clearly.

And Lin Qingge, like most young people of this age, is as simple as a puddle of water, which can be seen through at a glance.He is simple, enthusiastic, and sincere, and getting along with him will not make people feel the slightest pressure.So not only the cheerful and honest Mu Xiaohu, but also Luo Er, who has been depressed all this time, get along very well with him.Within a few days, the three teenagers went out and went in together, and made an appointment to go out to play together early in the morning, and they would not come back until dusk.

Standing by the window, Lin Qingsi looked at the gate downstairs and Lin Qingge greeted happily. Within two seconds, Mu Xiaohu jumped out like a little leopard, and jumped to the horse named Lasini with his arms open. The beast hugged its neck for a long time, and then saw Luoer come out slowly. He first gave Mu Xiaohu a look full of contempt, and then greeted Lin Qingge politely.The three teenagers didn't even get into the carriage, and just walked away, bickering and laughing, and Lasini followed meekly.

Lin Qingsi turned around and said: "These days, Brother She has caused you trouble."

"Where." Rong Yuan said: "Qingge is lively and cheerful, and I also thank him for taking care of Xiaohu and Luoer for me."

The table between Rong Yuan and Lin Qingsi was filled with various materials, and many contents were densely written on the messy papers.Alpha stood beside Rong Yuan, with a faint green light shining in Electronic's eyes.And there are three or four people sitting next to Lin Qingsi, who are basically writing hard. Their eyes are black and tired, but their spirits are inexplicably nervous and excited, so busy that they don't even care about the sweat on their foreheads. wipe.

There is also a young man with pale eyes beside the table, his name is Yunxi, he is Lin Qingsi's most trusted assistant, at this time he is reviewing the contents written by everyone word by word, binding them in order, and then carefully putting them in the into the gray box at hand.The content inside is so important that they dare not even use any more advanced typing equipment to print it out, and can only use the most traditional handwriting method.And all the materials here are the only one in the whole world. Except for these sorted materials, some draft papers they wrote in pieces during this period will be destroyed uniformly.Those responsible for the writing have not only signed a confidentiality agreement before coming, but they will all be sent to the Northwest Military Region. In name, they will be transferred to work, but in fact they will be placed under house arrest. They cannot leave the Military Region for half a step until the materials are declassified .

Hearing the two talking, Yunxi couldn't help but look up.

Their faces are so similar that sometimes the closest family members can’t tell who is who. The two stand by the window and talk in a low voice. The morning light shines in through the clouds and mist. He squinted for a while, couldn't see the expressions of the two people clearly, only saw two dark black silhouettes that were very similar.

During the few days of getting along, everyone found that not only their looks, but also their expressions, movements, and casual habits were almost exactly the same, but no one dared to say it out loud.Both of them knew this, but neither of them had any intention of changing it.

Yunxi faintly sensed that in the mind of her boss, this was like a wrestling, as if whoever could not resist making changes first would lose the legitimacy of his identity.This man who has always been strong and dangerous is now stubbornly sticking to himself like a child, as if no wind and waves from the outside world can shake him.However, it is clear to the bystanders that Yunxi knew that when he began to deliberately prevent himself from being affected, the existence of that person had actually had a pervasive influence on him.

But what about the man named Rong Yuan?Does he have the same idea?Yunxi couldn't see through.

Just judging from the past few days of getting along, this man can be said to have great kindness towards them.

These days, the robot named Alpha had many exchanges with them as Rong Yuan’s assistant, and with Rong Yuan’s tacit approval, it revealed to them a lot of information about the Star Alliance—culture, customs, etiquette, species, country , forces of all parties, weapon technology, alliance law and many customary rules, etc.Before that, the world outside the atmosphere was a mysterious desert to them, and because they knew nothing, it was especially frightening.But after knowing this information, when they really start contacting the Star Alliance, they can avoid many detours, and the losses that can be avoided are incalculable.

Usually the one who answers their questions is Alpha, and Rong Yuan just sits beside him, as if he is listening, but also seems to be in a daze.But the one or two sentences he occasionally inserted must be targeted and hit the point, and they are often valuable experiences that cannot be obtained through public information channels.

And the price they have to pay is just to provide enough supplies for the spaceship of Rong Yuan and others according to the list made by Alpha. Although the number is huge and there are some valuable items, compared to what they got, These are just some extremely trivial contributions.

When Yunxi felt great affection for Rong Yuan and was secretly grateful, he didn't realize that his boss might have completely opposite thoughts.

Resentment, anger, mania, dissatisfaction, and many negative emotions made Lin Qingsi's eyes roll like black clouds and rain.He got up and left the heavily guarded meeting room, and came to the small garden on the side of the manor.

The leaves of the tall green plants spread out, blocking the sight from others; there are many extremely beautiful exotic flowers and plants planted in the garden, and all kinds of fragrances merge into a wonderful and quiet fragrance in the air; The butterfly bird with colorful fan-like wings flies lightly in the air, stretches out its pointed beak to suck honeydew among the petals; a lantern-like flower just grows at Lin Qingsi's feet, it is in the early morning light There was a purple light in the light, reflecting Lin Qingsi's uncertain face.

The sound of rustling footsteps sounded from behind, and the sound of leaves being pulled broke the silence. Lin Qingsi frowned, turned around, and saw a pair of smiling fox-like eyes.

Semilian stood still, leaned forward with one hand resting on his chest, and said with a smile, "Hi, Your Excellency Director, excuse me."

....................................................................................

Soon after Lin Qingsi left, Rong Yuan also returned to the lounge. It would take two or three hours for Yunxi and the others to tidy up, so there was no need for him to stay with them all the time.Not long after, Alpha also came to him.

The robot's electronic eyes flashed, and a beam of light fell on the open space in front of Rong Yuan. The light blue light formed a three-dimensional picture in the air, and it was the meeting scene between Semilian and Lin Qingsi. Even The voice of speaking was as clear as if they were standing beside them.

"There is no need to monitor." Rong Yuan said: "The first contact, they can't talk about any substantive content, it's just a tentative understanding."

"However, Semilian secretly contacted Lin Qingsi, the real power figure on this planet, with unknown motives, unclear actions, and secretive behavior. There is a great possibility that it is for the purpose of harming you, the master. It is recommended to impose sanctions." Alpha said. .

"No rush." ​​Rong Yuan pondered for a moment, and said, "Before that, I have one more thing to clarify. Alpha, I'll leave this to you. Protect Xiaohu and Luo Er. And..." Rong Yuan After a pause, looking at Lin Qingsi's resolute and indifferent expression in the [-]D image, he smiled and said, "Forget it, that's it."

"I see." Alpha said.

Rong Yuan nodded, without further words, turned the ring on the ring finger of his left hand half a circle, held the seemingly rough stone in the palm of his hand, felt it, and in an instant, everything around him - the walls, the seats, the exquisite The teacup in his hand, the flower pot in the corner, and even the Alpha beside him, all shattered into countless pieces like a shattered lens, and distorted and deformed like a melted wax figure into extremely weird appearances. The world has completely changed -

There are countless fragments in all directions, some of which are like things in reality: such as a piece of metal parts on an unknown machine, a small ball of water that keeps changing shapes, and a red section that looks like an internal organ. There are even some things that are still slightly undulating; there are also some things that don't seem to exist in reality at all: a section of light bound by an invisible force is moving forward slowly, invisible lines from the beginning and the end are floating in the air, and the planet under your feet Like a piece of crumpled and curled paper, some people are above their heads, some people are far away under their feet, some places magma is rolling, and some places waves are beating the clouds. A bear is printed on it like an elongated piece of paper. on the glacier.

At this moment, the boundaries between time, space, and dimensions become blurred. He seems to be here, and he seems to be anywhere in the world. The whole person exists and does not exist. , as if you can touch the stars as soon as you reach out.

Facing this kind of scene, Rong Yuan didn't have the slightest fear or hesitation in his heart, and walked in as soon as he raised his foot.

The chaotic scene disappeared in an instant, and what Rong Yuan was in was a dark void.Suddenly, a faint starlight in the darkness lit up, and then as if some switch was turned on, countless light spots lit up one after another, forming a vast, endless, endless river of starlight. There are also many light clusters of different shapes and sizes playing and chasing in it like fish.

The starlight is like a river, and the distance is like a reef. The river of light passed around him silently, and there were many extremely tiny spots of light lingering around him as if they were attached to something.Rong Yuan paused for a moment, then took a step.

In an instant, he appeared in Guanghe, thousands of miles away from his previous location.

It's not that Rong Yuan used some kind of teleportation ability, but that the River of Light itself is made up of fragments of time and space, and space migration is only its most basic feature.When walking in it, it is not surprising that the distance between two steps is hundreds of light years.

Rong Yuan took a few more steps, and every time, his figure appeared far away.After a few steps, Rong Yuan found the space node he wanted to reach, and with a wave of his hand, the river of light shattered, and the scene of dimension confusion appeared again, Rong Yuan stepped out.

At this moment, only one second has passed since he entered the world of Guanghe.
