Hunting Game [Interstellar]

At ten o'clock in the evening, there was a knock on the door of the double room in the small hotel.

The two who had been waiting for a long time breathed a sigh of relief, Cang Xingyun indifferently got up and walked over to open the door for the visitor, McGregor stubbed out his cigarette and stood up, taking two steps towards the door.

After a while, the door opened, and the three of them met each other. Su Shichuan walked into the room and nodded to the two subordinates as a greeting.Cang Xingyun couldn't help but startled slightly when he noticed the little shark in his arms, then closed the door as if nothing had happened, and then turned to look at Su Shichuan.

The conditions of this hotel are limited, the room size is very small, and the double room is only about [-] square meters. It is divided into a suite by simple wooden boards, and the inside is for the guests to rest. Street windows.The house was not lit, the only source of light coming from the streetlight filtering in through the shutters, which fell on the loose wooden floor in neatly spaced bands, and McGregor was standing in the shadows by the window. , while looking at Su Shichuan, he slowly lit another cigarette.

As the lighter roller was plucked, flames shot out, illuminating the man's slovenly but still very handsome face.

Su Shichuan glanced at McGregor again, raised the corner of his mouth, and asked casually, "Is it all cleaned up?"

"The admiral you want is in the back room." Putting the lighter in his pocket, McGregor took down the cigarette, exhaled the smoke in the direction of Su Shichuan, his eyes half-closed, his voice was lazy and procrastinated, revealing a utter injustice Jing said, "Depending on the situation, the amount of anesthetic used is not light, and it is estimated that I can sleep for a while."

The smile on Su Shichuan's face remained the same, he ignored the ridicule behind, and asked again: "Where's the other one?"

Cang Xingyun: "Although no matter what we do, it will arouse suspicion among the agents, but in order not to attract so much attention, we cleaned up everyone in the tavern next door, including two tables of individual guests. The bodies of those people did not move, and the scene was disguised as Considering the murders and plunders caused by the uneven distribution of spoils, the staff can be regarded as the victims of the accident." He paused, and then consciously added after a while, "The method is a bit low-level, but at the time I couldn't think of a better way. "

"It doesn't matter whether you are low-level or not, as long as it works." Su Shichuan put the frightened little guy in his arms on the sofa, and sat next to him, "After all, it is normal for other agents to be suspicious if we lose a shallow infiltration agent. Yes, if there are no accidents, I will receive a report about Corona's death by tomorrow morning at the latest. Of course, this is a matter of insiders, you just need to fool ordinary people on this street."

"But..." Cang Xingyun hesitated, "Two agents were killed at once, and the second knight of the empire was also hijacked. Say, can the space station not notice it?"

Su Shichuan gave a flat "hmm" and said, "The plan can only be advanced."

As soon as these words came out, the other two present were stunned at the same time. McGregor was completely unaware of this, so he subconsciously blurted out: "What plan?"

Time is limited, and there is no rush. At this moment, Su Shichuan simply outlined the purpose of coming to the alliance this time, so that McGregor would not be lost.

To say that this star thief is really not a normal person, he himself does not have a deep understanding of Su Xingchuan's origin like Xingyun and Shiqi, and understands the root cause of all his layouts, and it is impossible for Su Xingchuan to put such a core The content told him that only the superficial superficial facts were mentioned. Anyway, the "Nameless" is a terrorist organization with mixed members. Naturally, there is no need for a clear reason for the outlaws to kill and plunder.As a very marginalized newcomer in the organization, McGregor has only had a name in the past ten years and has never participated in internal activities. However, after listening to the narration, he not only did not show any surprise, but accepted it very calmly.

After Su Shichuan finished speaking, McGregor was silent for a moment, and then made a conclusion: "So, the 'must plan in advance' you mentioned refers to the capture of the Imperial Space Station?"

"More than that," Su Shichuan said, "it's the overall plan."

"The strategic significance of that space station is very important. The purpose of the empire's dispatch of agents is to disintegrate the alliance. As a result, within a month of our arrival, the empire directly destroyed a space station. Do you think Sissy will think nothing of it?" Su Shi Chuan Yi said, "Combined with the fact that Aning has lost contact and disappeared, I will be the first person Cisse suspects."

When his voice fell, Cang Xingyun couldn't help but answer: "I'm not in charge of this matter, but I still want to say, you are too impulsive tonight."

"Actually, I also know." Su Shichuan looked up at Cang Xingyun, and smiled helplessly, "But what can I do? If Feng Chen hadn't come, maybe I wouldn't have to think about it so much, and just ruthlessly beat him to death. If you do it, treat it as an accidental injury that can be seen everywhere in offense and defense. But he came..." Su Shichuan paused, his eyelashes drooped immediately, "he stood in front of me, and every word he said was for my sake. Considering the future, he is worried that my actions will arouse the suspicion of Cisse, worried that I will not be able to get out of the alliance smoothly, he said that he believes in me—”

He met Cang Xingyun's gaze again: "——It's all like this, how do you want me to kill him?"

Cang Xingyun was noncommittal, and didn't know how to answer for a while, but after a long silence, he said softly: "I'm embarrassing you."

Su Xingchuan shook his head slowly: "If I fail in the end, I may regret my choice tonight, but until that day comes, I will be willing."

"What's the next plan?" Cang Xingyun asked.

Su Shichuan leaned back on the sofa, meditated for more than a minute, and then said: "Wait, you contact Xifa and ask him to transfer two mech air combat teams from the Alliance Army Headquarters, and set off after nightfall tomorrow to directly attack the target. "After the words closed, he was silent for a few seconds, and then added, "It is impossible to hide Rex from this operation, so you have to tell Xifa to report to Rex as soon as possible, and it is best to apply for a batch of additional staff, so Just in case."

Cang Xingyun was startled, even though he knew it would be ahead of schedule, he never thought it would be so soon!

"What about you?" Cang Xingyun asked.

"I have to go one step ahead of you, and bring Feng Chen back together before the space station discovers that the coach is missing." Su Shichuan replied.

"You want to go back..." Cang Xingyun repeated in a low voice, and in the next second he understood Su Shichuan's intention, "You want to respond from the inside and assassinate another knight?"

Su Shichuan: "Yes."

"It's too risky." Cang Xingyun did not deny the plan, but bluntly pointed out the disadvantages, "This is equivalent to exposing your identity inside the space station, at least revealing the purpose, making them mistakenly think that you have betrayed the empire. A piece of news accidentally leaked out..."

"So we must completely block the news, this is the key to action." Su Shichuan interrupted him without hesitation, "Xingyun, it is meaningless to consider risks in our plan, if we give up the action because of the risks, then we It would be impossible to get to where it is today.”

"I know." Cang Xingyun said, "I just think you can think about yourself once in a while."

"Next time." Su Shichuan got up and came to Cang Xingyun, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, "Time is running out, I really can't think of a better way, take one step at a time, there will definitely be mistakes, but at least make sure The ones that can be taken care of are not a problem."

Cang Xingyun didn't say anything more, it was a tacit consent, he turned to look at McGregor again: "This trip is dangerous, so you don't go. Once the news of Corona's murder spread, this town will be too much for you." It’s no longer safe, why don’t you go back to the church and wait for us.” Su Shichuan raised his chin to the little merman on the sofa, and said, “By the way, take that little guy back and take good care of him.”

"Okay." McGregor agreed, followed Su Shichuan's gesture, and smiled immediately, "It seems that our Boss really has a soft spot for sharks?"

Knowing what he meant, Su Shichuan smiled and said, "I only cut off a bottle of shark oil for you, so you don't have to remember it forever, right?"

McGregor continued to tease: "What about a bottle of shark oil, do you know the market price?"

"It doesn't matter how much the market price is. Anyway, there is a price but there is no market. The price in your heart is destined to be out of your hands." Su Shichuan said as a matter of course, "Besides, I agreed to absorb you into the organization back then, so that our Xingyun can live Is it not enough for Ban Shark to accompany you?"

Mr. Assassin: "..."

McGregor: "How dare I play his idea, wouldn't that kill me?"

"Isn't there still a small one here?" Su Shichuan smiled slyly, and went straight into the back room to look at Feng Chen after speaking.

McGregor always felt that the last smile on his Boss was weird, so he subconsciously looked at the dirty kid on the sofa.Looking up at the end, he noticed that Cang Xingyun at the other end of the living room was looking at him, but before he could speak, he heard the other party say: "Don't you dare."

Mr. Star Thief: "..."

At zero o'clock that day, a communicator sounded far away in the Silver Head of the imperial capital of the Alliance. Half an hour later, the mech air combat team affiliated to the military headquarters received the news. The first and second teams assembled overnight, and the other two An emergency rescue team is on standby.At the same time, Xifa went to the Commander's Mansion late at night and knocked on the door of Rex's bedroom in person.

Eight hours later, the periphery of the area to which the alliance belongs.

The leap channel opened, and a black mech broke through the air, the propeller flames went out, and the speed slowed down.But for a long time, the mech ghost quietly floated in the empty vacuum universe, as if it had stopped.There was silence all around, the nebula belt in the distance drifted slowly, the brilliance of the stars was transmitted by the light screen in real time, and finally turned into a blue-white cold light pouring down, half-illuminating the face of the man in the driver's seat.

The instruments on the console were running regularly, and the indicator light showing the words "autopilot" was flickering. At this moment, the man's drooping eyelashes trembled slightly.As if waking up from a deep long sleep, his closed eyes were not relaxed, his eyes rolled slightly, it seemed that it was difficult to open his eyelids, and it was difficult to get rid of the shackles of the dream.At this time, the consciousness that had been forcibly paralyzed returned to its original position first, and the memory imprinted in his mind not long ago surfaced, and he suddenly recalled the experience of being stabbed in the side of the neck.

The hands that landed on the armrests were clasped tightly, and the veins on the back of the pale hands were exposed. The force caused the alloy shackles wrapped around the wrists to rattle. quiet down.Eyelashes opened, the originally blurred field of vision slowly focused, Feng Chen stared at his right wrist, and after a few seconds he raised his eyes slightly, and he noticed the person obliquely in front of him.

Su Shichuan was wearing an imperial combat uniform, leaning against the console with one foot on the ground, and the other leg resting casually on the driver's seat—this is why Feng Chen was able to spot him in the first place, because The forefoot of the military boot next to his thigh is really conspicuous.

General Feng felt a bit of a headache.

His eyes were falling lightly on the other person, Su Shichuan looked down at him, until he was sure that this person was really awake, then he raised the corner of his mouth silently and said with a smile: "How do you feel?"

"It's a good thing you locked me up," Feng Chen's voice was low and sounded slightly hoarse, "otherwise I might not be able to control myself and attack you."

The smile in Su Shichuan's eyes deepened, and he calmly accepted the insincere malice, and said lightly: "I don't mind if you do something to me after the matter is over, you can do whatever you want, I can bear it."

The effects of the anesthetic hadn't completely passed, Feng Chen was so weak that he barely raised his head to look at him: "Tell me, what exactly do you want to do? I'll listen first, so that I can think about how to settle the debt with you afterwards."

"Take you back to the space station." Su Shichuan said.

Hearing this, Feng Chen glanced at the screen, and could probably guess where the two were, but he couldn't figure out the guy's purpose from the ambiguous answer.

"What are you going back for?" Feng Chen said, "I don't think you brought me back because you listened to my advice."

"I did listen to your suggestion," Su Shichuan said very seriously, "But I really can't do what you want."

"Okay," Feng Chen raised his chin, signaled to stop, and said bluntly, "Get to the point, don't go around in circles."

Su Shichuan breathed a sigh of relief: "I will complete the agreement with Rex and capture the space station of the Imperial Garrison, so I need to go deep into the space station, get rid of Auman first, and open the gap from the inside."

"You're so smart." Feng Chen sneered and curled the corners of his mouth, "The characteristic of that space station is that it's easy to defend and difficult to attack, and being able to open it from the inside is really great for the alliance army, no wonder you brought me back, so You need a ticket to enter the space station."

Su Shichuan gave a "huh" and admitted frankly: "Although it is no problem to come back as me, there will still be a lot of unnecessary explanations. It will be more convenient to be with you."

His tone was ordinary, calm without any ups and downs, Feng Chen looked into Su Shichuan's eyes, and for the first time in his life felt that the calmness of this guy was really unlikable.

"Shi Chuan, stop making trouble." Feng Chen suppressed the turbulent emotions in his heart, and said to Su Shi Chuan as calmly as possible, "No matter what reason you have, no matter what this matter will bring to the Luo Yin Empire in the future. No matter how much you gain, you can't destroy military facilities as a price, Cisse will not allow it."

Su Shichuan said: "He won't know that the destruction of the space station was done by me."

Feng Chen felt that this statement was too naive: "How could you hide it from him?"

"Because I have another identity, and in fact, Rex has reached cooperation with my identity." After the words fell, Su Shichuan reached into the pocket of his uniform and took out the silver pocket watch in the shape of a mysterious phoenix.

Smart mechs will have a unique camouflage form, so that users can carry them around easily. Feng Chen knows this better than others, so naturally he won't treat the things in the opponent's hands as pocket watches: "Don't make fun of me."

"This is not a joke." Su Shichuan said calmly.

"Su Shichuan!" Feng Chen was furious and said sharply, "Do you know what you are doing?"

"I've always known it." Su Shichuan said, "No one in this world knows the meaning of doing this better than me. I have to do it, and there is no other choice at all, Dust..."

"Don't call me Achen!" Feng Chen interrupted suddenly, Su Shichuan was stunned.

Feng Chen smirked, and when he spoke again, his voice was full of mockery: "You have been pretending for 13 years, isn't it good to keep pretending, why did you choose to tell me?" Su Shichuan was noncommittal, did not speak, Feng Chen He said again, "No wonder you stopped here instead of returning directly to the space station. You want to convince me, right?"

Su Shichuan: "Yes."

"Do you think I will be persuaded?" Feng Chen said.

Su Shichuan did not answer the other party's question, but said: "Rex has two conditions for me, capturing the space station is only one of them, and he also wants your life and Auman's life." He was deeply relieved. Tone, "Originally, I could not say anything today, and start to implement the plan after you go back, but then some things will be out of my control."

"I don't need to tell you, and I don't need to stop here to convince you. Anyway, as long as you are in this mecha, the defense system of the Imperial Space Station will not be able to say 'no' to me!"

Feng Chen looked at him expressionlessly: "Then why do you still do this?"

"You may not believe it when you say it," Su Shichuan said, "I want you to live, and I want you to forgive me."

Hearing this, Feng Chen couldn't help laughing out loud: "Why don't you believe it? If you really want my life, how can I still have a chance to open my eyes?" He paused, seeing that Su Shichuan didn't The meaning of opening the mouth, so I continued, "I asked you about your position, and asked if you did it for the empire. You said you were, and I said I believed you, but now you tell me that you are a 'crow'..."

"It's really disappointing to talk about trusting people like you. It's useless to have a personal relationship. I'm still not as good as you in this regard, and I don't have as clear a distinction as you."

After what he said, Su Shichuan calmed down a lot, and he didn't try to defend himself, but said: "I've already done it, you can say whatever you want, since you know that I can tell the difference clearly, then I also hope that you can make the difference now." Look at it separately from the previous things. If it is really impossible, then I have to let you fall asleep again, anyway, the 'Passport' does not need to be conscious, right?"
