Brilliant Time [Interstellar]

Outside the door, Aubrey explained a few words to Abby, regardless of whether the other party understood or not, he dragged Abby and walked back.

But before he had gone far, the door of the room behind him opened.

Hebrew strode over and stopped the two of them: "Wait."

Aubrey was reluctant, but instinctively knew that he couldn't provoke the other party, so he had to pull Abby to stop.

"Do you have anything else?"

When he looked back, he found that there was a red patch on Hebrew's chin, which seemed to be slightly swollen, not conspicuous, but not enough to be completely ignored, and he couldn't help being slightly surprised.However, he can be regarded as someone who has seen the world, even though he is curious in his heart, he tries not to show it on the surface.

Hebrew looked a little out of his mind, with the cat on his body that made Aubrey feel very subtle-at this time, the cat's face was also in a daze.Neither the person nor the cat seemed to care much about the furtive glances they cast over them, as they looked as though they were wandering off into the sky.

But this look made Hebrew look less vicious.

Hebrew glanced at the two of them, and he didn't have the heart to trouble them at the moment, so he just asked directly: "You have discussed it, do you want to go?"

Aubrey hesitated for a moment, but there was really no need to discuss this matter. Originally, they came here for another purpose, to invite the other party to accompany them, but what happened later caught people off guard.

Hebrew frowned slightly, as if a little impatient. Aubrey felt that it would be wrong to touch his bad luck at this moment. After seeing the other party asking several times, he probably hoped that the two sides would go together. He quickly said: "Then let's go back to the empire together, we The spaceship is very big, and there is no problem with the two of you..."

But after saying this, Hebrew didn't seem to be satisfied.Peer is mainly meant by Garry, and it is dispensable for Hebrew.

Hebrew clicked his tongue, and didn't want to listen to him finish, and said directly: "There is still an hour and a half before the opening of the channel, you'd better move quickly. See you directly on the apron in a while."

The time was very short, but fortunately they were stuck here by accident, and there was not much luggage to pack, and sufficient supplies were already prepared, but it was the difference between leaving early and leaving late, and at this time only need to gather the team members.

Out of some complex emotions towards Gary and fear of Hebrew, Aubrey didn't want the two to wait for a long time. He and Abby rushed to the small navigable platform to be opened with the team members. The scheduled time is even earlier.

Some people have already come to the artificial square where the aircraft is parked, and the number of people who are about to leave seems to be less than Aubrey imagined.

At this time they were gathering on the platform in twos and threes, occasionally talking in low voices.At the entrance of the passage, there is a group of armed men who don't look like base staff guarding it, and there is no sign of opening it.

Aubrey and Abby looked at each other, both of them didn't quite understand the situation in front of them. Abby called a team member who was smarter and asked him to go forward to see the situation.

What the players brought back was not good news.Among the people stranded on the space station for the past two days happened to be a figure of considerable status in the Federation.

Regardless of the reason why this distinguished guest came to this remote interstellar corner privately, most of this kind of person thinks highly of himself, and at the same time he is very reluctant to die. At first, he didn't really believe that it was a coincidence that he met the Sirius Legion here. The space station lost communication with the outside world, and Bifang Natong happened to hit one or two of these things by making up nonsense, and immediately connected these things with himself, thinking that Sirius might be directed at him.He used the privileges of the powerful, and in accordance with the Federal Act on Emergency Situations, he will temporarily recruit fighters who remain in the space station to fight against possible attacks.

The space station is located in a remote location, basically in a stocking state, and usually fends for itself, but in terms of affiliation, it is indeed under the jurisdiction of the Federation.Even though the interference of outsiders makes people feel unhappy, unless they want to completely secede from the Federation, they can only obey at this time.

As a result, the opening of the channel that is about to resume operation must be delayed, and even whether it can leave smoothly has become a problem.

Although Aubrey has seen many big scenes, this is the first time he has personally experienced such a tense situation. Apart from the headache, he has a vague feeling of bad premonition. I don't think the situation is serious, but now I feel inexplicably anxious.

Obviously, he was not the only one who had this kind of emotion. Although several young military students were still calm, they had no experience in dealing with such things. For a while, they looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

When Gary and Heber arrived, they saw such a mess.

Aubrey noticed his arrival almost immediately. Even though he was anxious, he subconsciously looked at Hebrew's face at the first moment.

Alpa's recovery ability was astonishing, until now Hebrew's face did not show any signs of redness and swelling, but His Majesty the Emperor still looked very unnatural, and his gaze was always a bit erratic.The mighty-looking pet dog followed behind him silently, but the very human cat was so clingy that it violated the nature of animals, and it kept rubbing against his feet every step of the way. Gary was absent-minded. , and don't pay much attention to it.

The two soon saw Aubrey and the others, and walked over quickly. At this moment, Aubrey didn't care about the embarrassment before, and quickly explained the whole story.

Hearing what he was saying, Gary involuntarily glanced at Hebrew, just as Hebrew was also looking at him, their eyes met, and Gary quickly turned his gaze away.

It was His Majesty the Emperor who did the talking, but afterwards he was more embarrassed than the beaten Hebrew.

Although the other party's behavior of approaching without heeding the warning can only be called seeking a beating, Gary also felt that it was unreasonable for him to say that he beat someone without any explanation.Hebrew accepted his apology magnanimously afterwards, but instead of not caring about it, he seemed quite happy. Gary couldn't understand it, and he didn't know how to face the marshal.

But now is obviously not the time for him to mind such trivial matters.

Hebrew wouldn't let him know at this time, he glanced at the group of armed men and narrowed his eyes slightly: "...It's indeed a regular army of the Federation, and it's well-trained, isn't it? Ordinary local army... What are you doing here?"

Gary was only silent for a few seconds before he had to focus on the problem in front of him.

"Ignore them, we'll leave as soon as possible."

Aubrey and Abby and the cadets looked at each other.Before Aubrey had time to speak, someone couldn't help but whispered: "Actually, there is no need to hurry. If it really becomes the target of the Sirius Legion, at least the defense capabilities of the space station can still resist. If you have to leave now It's unwise...and as long as you persist for a day or two, the federal army will arrive, so you don't have to take risks at this time."

In fact, this is also what most people think. The caravans and mercenary squads that come in and out of these places are more or less involved in smuggling and other activities, which is not something that anyone can handle.If it wasn't for the current interruption of communication, and knowing that the arrival of the federal army would only take a day or two, they might not be so cooperative. They may not be satisfied with the compulsory recruitment, but at this time, no one has come forward to say that this is a big deal. To protest against the obvious abuse of power by this big man.

Gary was not so optimistic. He had an indescribable intuition that this space station had indeed become the target of the Sirius Legion.As for whether it was because of the Sirius in his hand that the other party was willing to take the risk of directly confronting the federal army, it would be inconvenient to disclose it to the public.

Gary pursed his lips, turned his head and looked at Hebrew involuntarily, and exchanged a knowing look.

Hebrew has made great progress in the past few days, and others are still confused, but he can see from His Majesty's expressionless face that the other party is eager to take some unconventional measures.

Of course, on the premise of not revealing their identities, if they want to leave this place as soon as possible, it seems that the only way left is to break in and hack into the mastermind of the base to open the passage.

With His Majesty's super high spiritual value, it has to be admitted that the latter is undoubtedly easier.

"Okay." Hebrew said noncommittally to Aubrey, "Your spaceship is there, can you take a look first?"

Aubrey had invited them on his ship before, and his request seemed perfectly normal.

Knowing that it was impossible to leave the space station, almost all the people gathered in the small square were gone at this time, and the armed personnel at the waterway entrance also began to evacuate after dispersing the crowd, leaving only a few staff members of the base to do some maintenance work.

It is useless for them to stay here, and inviting each other to visit their own ship seems to be a good idea to enhance mutual understanding.

Aubrey's ship was indeed as spacious as he said, and the two of them could also guarantee that there would be plenty of room for use.All kinds of equipment on the ship are in the leading position among similar civil ships.Of course, there is still no way to compare with warships in some performances.

Under Aubrey's kind hospitality, Gary browsed the ship's data in the control room, and was unexpectedly satisfied with the ship, and rarely smiled; "Not bad."

Because of his embarrassment, he has always maintained an indifferent face towards the Hebrew Marshal, and because of his consistent emotional indifference, he will not warm up to Aubrey Abby and others who have only met for less than a day.

Seeing his indifferent expression, Aubrey felt inexplicably uneasy, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and began to think about what kind of dinner he should arrange next to look rich and sincere.

Aubrey was a little distracted, and didn't pay much attention to Gary's act of sitting down in front of the mastermind in the control room. Even when Gary asked him if all the staff were present, he was just inexplicably dazed: "Ah Yes, yes, our companions are all here, and the supplies are ready, ready to go at any time. I haven't had time to introduce you..."

Speaking of this, Aubrey remembered that he still didn't know the names of the two people in front of him, and he had completely forgotten this most basic social etiquette, and couldn't help scratching his hair in distress.

At this time, Gary seemed to be trying to activate the main control program of the ship.

Abby, who had been scratching his head and unable to speak, finally found an opportunity: "This type of ship uses genetic and spiritual wave locking technology, and only the captain can start the navigation program." He was obviously a little bit excited. Overwhelmed with enthusiasm, he earnestly invited Gary, "Are you interested in piloting a ship? When we reach a safe area, I can let you try..."

Before the voice finished speaking, the screen in front of it, which was originally in a dormant state, lit up dimly, and a long series of data flowed through, and with the initial service prompt sound of the main control system of the ship, it entered the fast start state.

While Aubrey and Abby were stunned, the ship had already fully charged and was about to enter the sailing state, and the electronic sound reminding passengers to prepare for sailing kept ringing.

"You..." Aubrey recovered his voice, but was so surprised that he didn't know what to say, "Stop what you are doing!"

Of course, it is impossible for His Majesty the Emperor, who has always been good at making his own decisions, to listen to him.

Aubrey rushed to the mastermind, frantically trying to give the ship an order to terminate, but the mastermind who had locked on him and should have obeyed any of his orders did not respond.

The new generation of aircraft, which was hyped up by the manufacturer and claimed to be the safest and most energy-efficient of the new generation, just lost its chain at this time, and Aubrey was almost in a cold sweat.

Gary turned his head and glanced at Aubrey: "Didn't you say that all the personnel are here, what's the problem?"

Big problem, okay?Although the ship has an excellent automatic cruise system, and the space inside the space station is spacious enough, it is not so spacious that a medium-sized cruiser can be used as a bumper car to drive around. Moreover, the ship is still accumulating energy. There is a point of not giving up until the top speed is reached.Aubrey seemed to have seen the tragic image of the ship colliding with other spaceships on the tarmac.

But even if such a serious consequence is possible, facing this instigator who made such a claim, he was restrained and unable to raise any resistance, not even saying a word to blame him for not operating indiscriminately. come out.

"It won't hit."

"Huh?" Aubrey was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that he had already said everything he was thinking before he knew it.

Gary nodded at him and said nothing more.Hebrew on the side took up the conversation.

"Generally, at the beginning of the construction of this kind of navigation platform, some emergency exits will be considered in the design of special circumstances. This is generally the case. Let's go from there." Hebrew took the initiative to take the conversation and explained quickly. Aubrey spread his hands and said rascally, "Okay. I know this is a bit sudden. But instead of worrying about it now, I think you should explain it to your frightened companions. It's not hijacking."

At the same time, as if to verify the Hebrew words, Abby's communicator rang at this moment, and it automatically connected after two seconds, from which came the anxious inquiries of the team members.

Abby pressed the call port and looked at Aubrey beside her.

Aubrey was quite helpless, and Abby was also a little hesitant, but Gary just looked up at them: "There may be a small vibration when passing through the emergency passage, it's best to let them be prepared."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two obediently turned around and walked out almost without a doubt.

Hebrew clicked his tongue lightly, but Gary immediately turned his head away.

"There is a special situation, and we are about to leave now. Taking the emergency passage, it may be unsteady, everyone, be prepared." Abby also has outstanding abilities to be the leading team leader. Very crisp and neat, not at all the youthful look of scratching his head and bewildered in front of Gary.

And the team members have always believed in him, and they didn't see the strange scene of the inexplicable start of the ship in the main control room. Apart from complaining a few words, the captain didn't notify everyone in advance, so no one doubted it.

In fact, there is not much time left for them to prepare.A virtual screen on the bulkhead faithfully displayed the scene outside the ship, and soon everyone forgot about complaining.

The auxiliary frame outside the rear of the ship retracted smoothly into the cabin, and the aircraft began to rise. The size of a medium-sized aircraft is really not small, but the change of direction over the airport can be called flexible. It quickly adjusted its direction, and then maintained a constant The accelerated flight state rushed towards a certain direction, and in front of the ship, it seemed to be a smooth and solid barrier of the space station.

The few staff members on the platform raised their heads in surprise and looked at all this in horror. However, the intelligent control system in the platform, which has always been responsible for its duties, has been silent all the time, without issuing a warning or automatically doing anything to stop the spaceship. Step forward.

Because of the high-speed movement and the short distance, the rapidly changing pictures on the screen make people dizzy.Some team members couldn't help but exclaimed—their ship seemed to be about to make a fierce intimate contact with the solid protective wall of the space station.

Even Aubrey couldn't help closing his eyes.Subconsciously, he trusts the unknown boy Alpa for no reason, but rationally, he starts to think about how much compensation and maintenance costs are needed for this accident, and he doesn’t know whether his salary this year plus the pocket money accumulated in previous years is enough ?

However, amidst the unbelievable exclamations of the team members, just before the collision, the thick and smooth alloy wall covering the entire space station vibrated, and a landing that could pass through the space station almost slipped away in milliseconds. mouth.And it closes quickly after the ship enters.It was so fast that it almost made people think it was an illusion.

But for the inside of the ship, Abby's teammates don't think so.

As a last resort, the emergency passage was not prepared for large aircraft from the beginning, and their spaceships could barely pass through.Moreover, the ship did not intend to slow down at all after entering the channel. The team members watched the blockades open in front of their eyes, and then quickly closed behind the ship. In the end, they almost became numb.You must know that if there is a slight carelessness, the spaceship will crash or be cut in two by the thick airtight cabin.

However, except for a few team members who were unprepared and accidentally fell due to the shaking caused by the high-speed change of the ship, the most worrying scene did not happen.

With the sound of the last safety door being closed with a bang, the vision suddenly opened up, and the ship rushed into a starry sky, leaving the floating island-like space station far behind.

"How is this going?"

The team members who came back to their senses looked at Abby in horror.

"...Captain, if you want to play like this again next time, can you tell me in advance? I want to buy an insurance first..."

"That's right, I'm about to have a heart attack..."

"...No, no, no, it's best not to have a next time, I have never touched ega's little hand in my life, and I don't want to just hang up like this..."

Amidst the chatter of the crowd, someone thought of the most critical question: "The captain is here, and Aubrey is here, so who is manipulating the spaceship now? Those two new guests?"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay. As military students, the combat training they had been exposed to usually included many thrilling events, but they were all carried out in the virtual cabin. The few young people who came out to see the world for the first time hadn't seen much yet. What a scene of real swords and guns, let alone the speed and level of a civilian cruiser out of the battleship.

Except for some special cases—for example, the young and mature Emperor, they are at this age, they are flying high, subconsciously always want to do something out of the ordinary, and they don’t feel disgusted with this unconventional means of escape, and they don’t Thinking about it deeply, the first time it was more exciting than the panic it should have been.

The team members were a little over-excited, and asking around them made it difficult for Aubrey and the two of them to resist. To be honest, they didn't necessarily know more than these team members.

"...Do you all think that you are out for a trip? Casa will be the assistant driver, you guys, go check the equipment. Go and count the rest of the supplies!" Abby could only pull her face down.He had another layer of worry. If it was nothing like normal, the space station in this corner of the interstellar world would turn a blind eye to those smuggling, openly or secretly, and would not interfere with the departure or departure of the aircraft.But when some important figures moved out of the temporary call-up order, they came out like this, no matter what, they slapped the Federation in the face most nakedly. "We have to go to the safe area as soon as possible. We are still under the jurisdiction of the space station. Do you want to be treated as a defector who retreats and be shot down by the particle cannon?"

After he said this, the team members calmed down a little, and each muttered about doing things.

After instructing the team members, he didn't know what to do. He stood blankly for a while, and heard someone behind him say, "No."

Gary was standing at the door. When Abby saw him, she was taken aback for a moment, and then blushed quickly. The image of the calm and calm captain just now disappeared, and she stammered, "Ah, what?"

"I won't be attacked by the space station." Gary was expressionless. Even if he understood that Abby's state was affected by the so-called bloodline, it would be very embarrassing for His Majesty the emperor to face such excessive enthusiasm.For His Majesty the emperor, leaving in this way is just a small episode, and there is also a way to ensure that the defensive weapons of the space station will not fire any shells at them.He didn't want to talk to Abby, he tried to be as concise as possible, and turned to Aubrey, "Where are the supplies stored? I need some materials."

After thinking about it for a while, he added a proper explanation: "I am a technician."
