On the Importance of Finishing Work

capital star.

A visitor came to Admiral Lin's home.

It's not uncommon for Lin Xuebo to have guests at home, but this time, it's not some government official or military colleague, but... a delicate guest.

She is a very beautiful lady, her hair is meticulously arranged, even the hair on the side of the cheek is just right, her clothes are decent, and her makeup is exquisite.

It's just... No amount of delicate makeup can conceal the haggard look on her face.

This is a single-person apartment assigned by the Seventh Legion. Those who have families and rooms have already moved out, and the rest are old bachelors without wives.

Suddenly such a beautiful woman came, the news spread like a tailwind, and spread throughout the entire accommodation area by the way.

In broad daylight, it was rare to be quiet, and even the usual howling at the top of the voice was changed to chatting in a proper manner.The last time this level of tranquility was overthrown, it had to be traced back to the emergency mission half a year ago.

Still, be quiet.

The news did not spread slowly, and when the lady came out again, she hadn't gone a few meters.Even the details of people's "eyes are red, as if they have cried" have been spread all over the place.

So Admiral Lin's house once again visited four or five waves of old friends.

If his military rank was not high enough, the threshold would have been broken by now.

"Get off!!" Lin Xuebo yelled at the group of onlookers with a rough voice that didn't match his handsome appearance.

Those who were scolded by him were not afraid, some even joked with a smile, "But I came here to ask you as a brother, such a beautiful girl has come here... You don't want it, brother can just Let's do it!"

"Fuck you!" Lin Xuebo kicked his foot, "I'm not afraid that Ge Xu will find you in the middle of the night!"

The person who made fun of him was stunned, and the noisy living room was silent for a moment. After a while, someone said: "That is...Miss Griffin?"

Shang He, the current head of the Seventh Legion, is also the youngest marshal in the history of the alliance.

Although he is still in his prime, his magnificent first half of his life is enough to write several books.

"Fringe Star to Marshal of the Alliance", "Genetic Test E-Class Counterattack", "Civilian Heroes"...

All kinds of gimmicks made by third-rate tabloids are true when they are placed on him.

Just because of his birth, most of his direct descendants are civilians with no background.

Although this has pushed Shang He's popularity in the alliance to the peak again and again, but in the capital star, many nobles look down on these "common people" very much.

As Shang He's adjutant, Ge Xu is naturally one of the "common people" who are looked down upon.

Back then, his wedding with Miss Griffin was also seen as the Griffin family's gesture of favor and support for Marshal Shang.

However, later...

The people in the living room were silent for a moment, and an invisible solemnity spread, and someone said coldly, "What is she doing here?"

No wonder their attitude.

… Last year when the news of Ge Xu’s death in battle came out, this Miss Griffin unilaterally announced the reinstatement of her surname. She didn’t even attend Ge Xu’s funeral and moved back to her natal family. It is difficult to arouse people's favor.

Lin Xuebo knows a little bit about it.

In the situation at that time, Miss Griffin was probably involuntary at the time.

——Besides, there are some things that can’t be right or wrong...

He only briefly answered the man's words, "Her daughter is lost."

The man snorted, "Her daughter is lost, shut up..."

"wait wait wait!!!"

He said halfway, and jumped up with an "Aww", "You said her daughter?! Isn't her daughter..."

Lin Xuebo nodded, "Ge Xu's posthumous son."

Although I haven't heard any news before, I know that Lin Xuebo is not unreliable in this matter.

A group of old bachelors immediately stood or squatted around Lin Xuebo to press for information, only to make Lin Xuebo's head swell with questions, and quickly slipped away while answering the communication.

On the other hand, Shi Yue began to think about how to find a job and support himself and a baby.

Although system points can be exchanged for daily necessities, it is not an option in the long run.

and……

Shi Yue looked at the little baby who was still spitting and bubbling stupidly, and felt dizzy for a while: children's education should also be put on the agenda, obviously they can't live in this marginal galaxy all the time.

So, set a small goal first.

——Before the child is three years old, save enough for two spaceship tickets to jump to the medium-sized galaxy.

As for why not earlier?

Common sense of the Alliance—Children's bodies are relatively fragile. Before the age of three, do not take children for space transition.

……

In this marginal star, it is very difficult to find a stable job, but it is very possible to find a temporary job with relatively high income.

No certificate required, no age limit... as long as you have the technology in hand.

However, the mobility of these "posts" is relatively strong, and under certain circumstances, they are quite dangerous.

Relying on the knowledge he learned in this world last time, Shi Yue temporarily acted as a repairman...and worked as a helper in a "mecha repair shop".

The owner of the store is a chubby, middle-aged man who looks very kind and takes care of Shi Yue a lot.

As a result, when many people entered the store, they all looked at the young Shi Yue subtly.

Those who are more familiar will joke a few words, "When did you have an extra son", and the estrangement is just a few extra glances.It's just that whether it's an acquaintance or a stranger, they will inevitably mutter behind their backs: How could this black-hearted fat man show kindness?

Of course, the shop owner is not out of kindness, it is really this kid who can actually bring him benefits.

Most of the weapons sent to the store, this kid can see where the problem is at a glance, and he can fix it with a few hands.

With such a kid around, the store's turnover doubled several times.

The boss was suspicious, and given this kid some time, he could repair the scrap mecha in the store.

Yes, although this shop is called "Mecha Repair Shop", it doesn't actually repair mechas.

After all, you can't expect a fringe planet to have something as expensive as a mecha... The mecha model is about the same.

Because there is a younger sister in the family to take care of, Shi Yue basically arrives late and leaves early every day...

As long as it can help him earn money, the shop owner will turn a blind eye to Shi Yue's actions. As for other maintenance personnel... They still expect to learn a trick from Shi Yue, so naturally they don't. Will talk a lot.

Of course...it can't be so smooth every day.

In this place close to the base camp of Star Thieves, the business is still related to weapons. If there are no accidents, it is safer to dream.

Shi Yue was just about to go home from get off work at this moment, but he stopped suddenly when he went out, turned his feet around, and returned to the shop again.

A group of maintenance workers who were continuing their own repair work saw this situation, their expressions changed immediately, and they ignored the unfinished work, and quickly withdrew to the warehouse behind in an orderly manner—obviously this was not the first time up.

On the other side, the shop owner's eyes were fixed slightly, and he raised his hand to dial a communication number.After a while, a dozen burly men armed with weapons and heavily armed came in and filled a small maintenance room to the brim.

……

He listened carefully to the commotion outside, and after confirming that everything was almost over, Shi Yue took the lead out of the warehouse again.

Smelling the faint smell of blood in the air, and seeing the smiling expression on the fat man's face, he knew... this was a successful black-and-white campaign.

Shi Yue curled his lips, besides the maintenance worker, he also played the role of "alarm", he felt that he should get two wages.

... Don't think about such a good thing as two salaries for now.However, Shi Yue touched the red envelope stuffed into him, and felt that it was barely acceptable.

With such a delay, the time to go home was postponed, and the sky was already a little dark.

Sinilka TBY834 The starry night is much longer than the day, and Fat Boss's shop is located in a famous chaotic area. If you go out after dark, the danger level is more than doubled.

Although Shi Yue was not afraid, he didn't want to cause trouble for nothing, so he agreed to the proposal of the fat boss to let the "bodyguard" escort him.

With the absolute height advantage, the three burly men behind Shi Yue followed suit, and Shi Yue inevitably had the illusion that he was a young master.

And actually...

As soon as he walked out of the chaotic area, Shi Yue stopped in his footsteps. He was gentle and polite and even smiled shyly. He said in a grateful tone: "Thank you, brothers. Just send it here. It's safe outside. I can just walk by myself. "

Those men exchanged glances in silence, nodded at Chong Shiyue, and then went back the same way, while Shiyue continued to move forward.

……

After more than ten minutes, those men reappeared at the fork in the road, frowned and observed for a while, and each chose a direction to chase after.

After another half an hour or so, they gathered in the same place again, shaking their heads solemnly.

……

The fat boss who got the report of "lost follow" was not surprised, that little loach was very slippery and cunning.

... But don't worry, the days are still long.

He waved his hand, signaling those people to go back.

Because the explanation was not completed, the sweaty men breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this action, and hurriedly backed out.

the other side.

After those men left for a while, Shi Yue stepped out of a shadow.

He turned his head and glanced at the chaotic area, sighed faintly——

He has worked in this store for more than a year, and the boss has always been very disciplined. He thought he could do it until Shijiu's third birthday.

Shi Jiu, that is, the younger sister of the original body—this is the new name Shi Yue gave her. "" Chirp" "Quack"... Shi Yue chose a nice one.

In this kind of chaotic fringe star, if you know the way, it's easy to be a new identity.Now Shiyue's identity certificate is called "Shiyue".

Shi Yue calculated the money he had saved in the past two years, and it was almost enough to buy two spaceship tickets to the medium star.However, when the brother and sister first arrived on the new planet, food, clothing, housing and transportation still cost money, so they couldn't bring their younger sister to sleep on the street.

The more I thought about it, the more I wanted to sigh, why couldn't the fat boss keep the rules for a while longer?

Not much, just three or two months...

While thinking about what kind of job he could change in a few months, he left home.

——Of course the house is new.

The safety factor of the house left by the original owner's parents was pitifully low, and Shi Yue was really worried about leaving a child alone at home during the day.

The alarm system at the door recognized Shi Yue's face, and said in a melodious voice: "Welcome...Mr. home."

There is a problem with the sound system of this alarm system, but the main function is not affected. Although Shi Yue can repair it, he thinks it is unnecessary.

He opened the door and went in, and a small group rushed out, "Welcome... brother home."

It was inexplicably similar to the strange tone of the alarm system at the door.

Shi Yue: ...

To fix!It will be fixed soon! !
