Soul Mechanic [Interstellar]

【Mission with an uncertain future】

The last "molesting" incident did not have any substantial impact on the relationship between the two.

Mu Qiu neither dodged shyly nor lost his temper secretly, he just bent down, poked Chu Qingtian's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Even if you want to kiss, I have to kiss you, you know?"

Chu Qingtian grinned, and the brows of Feiyang were smudged with a smile, "I'll wait."

"Then just wait~" Mu Qiu said lightly, and walked away.

Liu Chu Qingtian sat on the spot with his hands propped up, smiling smugly.

"The dignified sentinel was kicked away by his wife, and he still has a long face?" Grandpa stabbed coolly while saving the sapling.

Chu Qingtian patted the ashes on his buttocks, and said casually: "Grandpa, you still can't see it, it's not that my daughter-in-law is good at kicking, it's that I'm flying well - who did I learn this skill from?" You don't know, do you?"

"Brat!" Grandpa feigned anger, and patted him with the flower shovel in his hand.

"Grandpa, you are really old!" Chu Qingtian yelled, and chased his wife with his long legs.

Mr. Chu looked at the backs of the two young people, and murmured, "You brat..."

-

The days at home are so beautiful that it is like living in a fairy tale.However, fairy tales always come to an end.

On the eighth day, Chu Qingtian received an encrypted video from Lu Xun—they had received a new mission, and Chu Qingtian had to return to the team within three days.

It had been expected that such a day would come, and the two of them had already made psychological preparations. The only thing they couldn't let go of was the two old people.

Grandpa and grandma prepared big and small bags of things to Chu Qingtian's space, including clothes, food, and all kinds of things that the old man thought would be useful.

At the end, grandpa also moved two pots of plants with emerald green leaves and carefully handed them to Chu Qingtian, "This is for Xiaoqiu, it can be regarded as...a meeting gift."

Chu Qingtian was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, are you sure?"

Grandpa glared at him, "So much nonsense!"

Chu Qingtian touched his nose embarrassingly, and pouted at Mu Qiu, "Grandpa gave it to you."

Mu Qiu saw that there were two pots of ordinary-looking "grass" with more vitality at most, and guessed that it would not be too expensive, so he responded with a obedient smile, "Thank you, grandpa."

Grandpa also smiled lovingly, "Be a companion for Xiao Shuteng."

Xiaoshuteng heard it, and poked a spike out of Mu Qiu's shoulder, and shyly touched grandpa.

Grandpa smiled deeper, "A good boy is a good boy."

Grandma took Mu Qiu's hand and said reluctantly: "Qiu Qiu follows Xiao Tian to do important things, and she will come back when she is not busy."

Grandpa also said: "When you are young, you spend a lot of time wandering, and when you are old, you can live the life you want to live."

Grandma dragged the two of them for a long time and told them to take good care of themselves and how to take care of the two little ones.

In the end, it was Grandpa who interrupted her forcefully, "If the children don't leave, it will be dark."

Only then did grandma let them go, and waved her hands reluctantly, "Go!"

Mu Qiu finally hugged the old man who gave her short but real warmth, and reluctantly followed Chu Qingtian to get on the aircraft.

"Old man, is this the longest time Xiaotian has stayed at home since he entered the military academy?"

Mr. Chu wiped away the tears on his wife's face, and suppressed the wetness in his eyes, "Why are you crying? Didn't Xiaotian say that the days to come will get better and better."

"Yeah!" Grandma wiped away her tears and laughed, "At least we can rest assured that we have a companion by our side. I think that doll is a good one."

"It's rare that Xiaotian values ​​it, so what else is he trying to do?"

"makes sense."

"..."

The old couple chatted one after another, helping each other back to their small house.

-

on the aircraft.

Mu Qiu lay on the back window, watching the buildings below gradually turn into black spots, and said in frustration, "Grandpa and grandma must be feeling bad."

Chu Qingtian paused, and waved to him, "Come here."

"Huh?" Mu Qiu responded inexplicably, and sat down on the chair next to him.

Chu Qingtian took his hand and looked at him with a pair of black eyes.

Mu Qiu was a little nervous for no reason.

Fortunately, Chu Qingtian didn't make him nervous for too long, his voice was a little low, as if it contained some emotions that could not be expressed, "Qiuqiu, if you are reluctant, let's go home often in the future, okay?"

Mu Qiu's entangled spiritual realm suddenly calmed down.He met Chu Qingtian's eyes and gave a soft "hmm".

The next moment, a huge and complicated mental thread swept over, and Mu Qiu slammed into a generous embrace firmly.

He quietly raised the corners of his mouth and wrapped his arms around the man's waist.

-

From the Cassiopeia constellation to the Tianlong-[-] star, an ordinary spacecraft will sail day and night for four days.

Chu Qingtian and Mu Qiu had missions on their hands, so they lit up their team numbers and took a special route, and saw the outline of Tianlong 3 star in the evening of the next day.

The commuters in the duty room had received a signal from the "Nandu Merchant Ship" to apply for access early on. According to Lu Xun's instructions, Chu Qingtian moored at the most remote port as usual.

At that time, it was already dark.

As soon as Mu Qiu got off the boat, he saw that slender and tall figure on the platform, rigorous and elegant, somehow reminded him of his friend Simon whom he just met.

Lu Xun nodded politely when he saw Mu Qiu.

Mu Qiu hurried up and called out respectfully, "Deputy team."

Lu Xun gave a rare smile, "Welcome back to the team, Mechanic."

Mu Qiu straightened his back and gave a military salute.

A sour ridicule came from behind, "Why haven't you seen me so respectful to me before?"

Mu Qiu glanced at Lu Xun quietly, and replied in a low voice, "Because you don't consider me a soldier either."

Chu Qingtian hooked his shoulders and smiled, "Why don't I take you out of the army?"

Due to Lu Xun's presence, Mu Qiu pulled his hand away and didn't answer.

Chu Qingtian was reluctant to let go, and moved closer to his ear, but his voice was not lowered, "You are talking about it, what do I think if I don't take you as a soldier?"

Mu Qiu returned with a big white eye.

Lu Xun pushed the mirror frame, and glanced around the two people, thoughtfully.

Mu Qiu stepped forward and asked Lu Xun for instructions, "Deputy team, if there is nothing else, I want to go back to the dormitory first."

Lu Xun glanced at Chu Qingtian and nodded, "You have worked hard all the way, and you are allowed a day off."

"Thank you, deputy team." Mu Qiu happily thanked the little mech with one hand and the little green vine in the other.

Chu Qingtian stuffed two pots of "grass" into his arms again, "You can take this one, Grandpa has spent a lot of money this time."

Mu Qiu took advantage of the situation and hugged her, saying goodbye to the two of them.

-

Seeing Mu Qiu's figure drifting away, Lu Xun pushed his glasses, his voice was calm and cold, "If you read correctly, those two pots are 'waning moon'."

Chu Qingtian defaulted.

"The market price of that mecha is 30 credits. Wolfe's store started to put it on the shelves the day before yesterday. At [-]:[-] a.m. in the imperial capital, the queue has already filled Silicon Valley Avenue."

"That's just a model." Chu Qingtian emphasized.

"30 credits." Lu Xun repeated.

"I didn't give it to you." Chu Qingtian snorted through his nose, "What model to give, next time I will send a real one to Qiuqiu."

Lu Xun despised him mercilessly, "Let's repair Gray Eagle's mechanical arm first."

Chu Qingtian immediately shut up.

While talking, the two of them boarded the aircraft.

Chu Qingtian absently controlled the operation panel, and the aircraft slowly drifted towards the military area.

"Yesterday morning, I received an application for military service from the second heir of the Wolfe family. Don't you explain it?" Lu Xun said again.

"Has it been approved?" Chu Qingtian didn't care.

Lu Xun shook his head, "It's not convenient to ask about such a big matter in the video, and I can't make the decision. As far as I know, the second son of the Wolfe family is a guide, and their family guarded him like a baby. Been through wizarding school, and never been seen in a social situation, let alone in the military—how did you get a china doll like that?"

Chu Qingtian raised his eyebrows, "Why must it be me?"

"Could it be me?"

"I think it's possible, don't tell me, you and that Simon are really similar people." Chu Qingtian leaned back in his chair, looked at Lu Xun with his eyes, and the more he looked, the more he looked like that.

Lu Xun pursed his lips, "It really is you."

Chu Qingtian raised his legs, and said sourly: "If I want to attract this golden doll with such great charm, can I still not be able to repair a mecha? ——It's Qiuqiu."

"Qiuqiu?" Lu Xun frowned, "Are you serious?"

Chu Qingtian said "hmm", "I can't be more serious."

"The guide is gone?"

Speaking of this, Chu Qingtian couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, "I really didn't plan to ask for it, but... just wait and see! Hehehe~"

Seeing him laughing so cheaply, Lu Xun was relieved.

-

When Mu Qiu walked into the conference room, he saw a room full of acquaintances.

Chu Qingtian motioned him to sit down, and said straight to the point: "I promised you to take you with me when I went on a mission, but this time the situation is a bit special, so you can decide for yourself whether you want to go or not."

Unexpectedly, Chu Qingtian really put his words into his heart, Mu Qiu nodded with complicated emotions.

Chu Qingtian felt that his emotions were a bit wrong, but now was not the time to comfort others, so he just explained in a business-like manner: "This time the mission is to rescue the aboriginal people of Bianxing, and the goal is Feixuexing."

Mu Qiu looked at him with a face of confusion.

There was a sneer from the side, "Hey, so you don't understand either."

Mu Qiu felt that there was no malice in the other party's emotional wave, so he didn't understand this sentence as a mockery.

Brother Aubrey put his shoulders on his shoulders and comforted him: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I've never understood, why don't you just kill star thieves and chop bugs? Just follow the boss!"

Chu Qingtian looked at that thick arm, it was an eyesore.

Lin Qing couldn't help but said: "Aubrey, if he doesn't understand now, it doesn't mean he won't understand in the future. If you don't understand, you really don't understand. Can you two be the same?"

Aubrey scratched his head for a long time before he understood what Lin Qing said. He took Mu Qiu's hand and said anxiously, "Don't, you have to stay with me."

Mu Qiu can see that this person is really straightforward and has no intentions, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "I will make it up to you later."

Before Aubrey could ask what the "compensation" was, Chu Qingtian said, "It's down to business." His tone was so serious that even Aubrey was startled.

Mu Qiu suppressed his smile and sat upright.

Lin Qing looked at this and that, not knowing why.

Lu Xun pushed his glasses and explained on his behalf: "Originally, the task of picking up people is not difficult, and you can get them by spending a few energy plates once in a while. However, this time it may be a bit troublesome. The black hole and nearby planets have extremely unstable gravitational forces, and accidents such as deorbits, impacts, and explosions may occur at any time—this is why the residents of Feixue star applied for transfer."

"Damn it!" Aubrey thumped the table angrily, and cursed, "I said, what kind of medicine did that scum take to give us such a good thing, so that's what happened!"

Mu Qiu now understands that they just made the points-giving question into an additional question, which seems to be an additional question that will deduct points properly-it seems that they were still cheated.

"Boss, we won't take this job!" Aubrey yelled with a blushing face.

Chu Qingtian leaned on the back of the chair, and his expression was not very good.

Lin Qing sighed, and said in a low voice: "It's okay if it's just that scumbag who messed up. This time it's an order from the headquarters, so we can't help but refuse to accept it. And..." Lin Qing glanced at Chu Qingtian and continued, "Recently The cost over there is a bit high, and we also need this military expenditure."

"It's so fucking... annoying!" Aubrey's curse words were only these two sentences repeatedly, "What's the fuss about the headquarters? Are you really using us as cannon fodder?"

No one answered.

After a while, Chu Qingtian spoke again, speaking to Mu Qiu, "So I suggest that you don't go."
