After weaving for a while, Lan Yu found that Lu Rankong hadn't spoken. She glanced up at him and found that he was staring at her.

"Stupid again?" He took his foot out of his slippers and kicked the person sitting opposite him.

Lu Rankong recovered from his trance, grabbed the troubled foot, put it on his lap and hugged it.

"Nothing..." he said.

"What were you thinking just now? You've been in a daze..." Lan Yu asked.

Lu Rankong was silent for a moment, and said, "I think of my little playmate."

"Scramble for the wooden carving with you?"

"Yes, he is just like you, and his hands are also very dexterous."

Lan Yu asked while weaving: "You haven't said what happened to your little playmate."

The last time Lu Rankong said this with a sad expression on his face, he didn't ask any further, and now that he mentioned this again, he couldn't help but blurt out the question.

Sure enough, when Lu Rankong heard this, his expression changed, and he also shut his mouth.

Lan Yu watched him while knitting, feeling even more curious.

"He's dead..." Lu Rankong suddenly said.

Lan Yu was taken aback and stopped what she was doing.

"He passed away on the same day as my mother." Lu Rankong said again.

It took Lan Yu several seconds to react. She didn't know what to say, so she just stared at him blankly.

Neither of them spoke. In the silence, a gust of wind blew by, bringing the slogans of soldiers in the distance, and the chirping of gulls and birds on the sea.

After a while, Lan Yu moved the foot held by Lu Rankong.

Lu Rankong stared down at the ground, unable to see what was going on in his heart, and he didn't move.

Lan Yu scratched his palm with her toes again.

One, two, three...

Lu Rankong finally showed a faint smile and pinched the soles of his feet.

Lan Yu withdrew her foot, put the needle back into the sewing basket, dragged the small bench under her, sat close to him, and then lay down on his lap.

"What's wrong?" Lu Rankong asked softly.

Lan Yu didn't speak, just kissed him on his knee.

"I'm fine, it's been so long." Lu Rankong continued.

Lan Yu kissed again.

Lu Rankong laughed, bowed his head and kissed the top of his hair, and said, "Aren't you hurrying up to weave that gun handle? We're leaving tomorrow."

Lan Yu didn't speak, and lay down for a while before getting up, brought the sewing basket over, leaned against Lu Rankong and started knitting.

Lan Yu moved quickly, and finished the two gun handle covers at night, and also hooked two fluffy balls of thread with a crochet hook, and hung them outside.

"The dark brown one is yours, and the light brown one is mine."

Seeing Lu Rankong holding the two knitted gun grips in his hands and looking at them fondly, Lan Yu said to him.

Seeing him with a dazed expression again, Lan Yu handed him the darker one and said, "This one, dark brown."

Lu Rankong took out the terminal to shoot at the handle of the gun. He was not satisfied with the shooting, so he put it on the balcony, moved two pots of succulents to the side, and exposed the hanging thread balls. The background was the sea, and he continued to shoot.

Lan Yu saw that he was very active in shooting, so she went to the refrigerator to take out a row of nutritional supplements, unscrewed the cap of one of the bottles, tasted it with the tip of her tongue, and frowned.

It was also too bad to drink.

Except for soldiers or patients who can't eat, and mountaineering enthusiasts, no one usually drinks nutritional supplements, so they don't pay attention to the taste when giving birth. It is very bland and has a faint fishy smell.

Lan Yu tasted that sip and felt like he was drinking chemical raw materials, but Lu Rankong told him just now that there is no food on Wei Ya, one is inconvenient to carry, and the other is that it requires a lot of energy to maintain physical fitness. the best choice.

I have no choice but to drink this and see if I can improve the taste.

Lan Yu rummaged in the refrigerator, took out several bottles of concentrated juices with different flavors, unscrewed the bottle of the nutritional supplement, and mixed the juice in it.

After mixing it, he tasted it, and it really tasted much better this time.In order to distinguish them, he carefully pasted various annotations on the nutrient bottle.

After everything was ready, he was sure that there was nothing missing, and it was getting late, so he took a shower and went to bed.

Just as Lu Rankong lay down with his arms around the person, Lan Yu let out another ah.

"What's wrong?" Lu Rankong asked.

"We're going to wear that special winter suit, right?"

"Yes, only cold clothes can isolate the low temperature outside and keep the body temperature from losing." Lu Rankong said.

"What's inside? What are you wearing under the winter clothes?"

Lu Rankong recalled it blankly for a while, and said: "I haven't paid attention to this problem, I just wear my own clothes inside."

"Military uniform? T-shirt? Cotton jacket?"

Lu Rankong said: "Just... military uniforms, T-shirts are also fine, cotton jackets are too bulky. Have you ever been on missions in extremely cold areas? What were you wearing underneath?"

Lan Yu said vaguely: "I didn't notice it either, I can't recall it."

"Then wear whatever you want. I don't think anyone cares about it, as long as there are winter clothes outside."

"All right……"

After another half hour, Lan Yu sat up abruptly in the dark, "No, I have to prepare two sets of cold-resistant underwear."

After speaking, he unscrewed the bedside lamp and opened the terminal to check.

Lu Rankong also sat up and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"I want to place an order for two sets of cold-resistant underwear. What size do you want to wear... Let me see what size suits you..."

Lu Rankong wiped his face and said, "I don't need it, it's too troublesome."

Lan Yu rolled his eyes at him, "That's not okay, you're going to freeze into an arthritic old leg or something, and when you get old, you'll need me to wait on you and push the wheelchair behind you at any time."

"Old? Old..." Lu Rankong was elated by the words that he wanted to be together when he was old, so he hurriedly said, "Place an order quickly, place an order."

After placing the order quickly, Lan Yu turned off the lights and lay down contentedly, and said, "There are automatic deliveries that are fast, and you can go downstairs to pick them up when you wake up tomorrow."

"Okay..." Lu Rankong hugged him into his arms and asked contentedly, "Now I can sleep in peace."

"Well, go to sleep."

"sleep……"

"Ah!" Lan Yu made another voice in the darkness.

Lu Rankong closed his eyes and asked, "Do you remember what else to prepare?"

"Forget it, it's too troublesome, so I don't bring it."

"What are you going to bring?"

"Actually, you can still heat up food with a small gas stove. Forget it, we have fruit-flavored supplements, and as soldiers, it's not good to watch us eat hot food and drink spicy food."

Lan Yu arched in Lu Rankong's arms, found a comfortable position, yawned and prepared to sleep.

Just closing his eyes, he opened his mouth again and said, "Actually, I think we can—"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Rankong blocked his mouth with his lips and tongue, and sucked it back and forth.It wasn't until his eyes were blurred and his consciousness lost, and he forgot what he was going to say, that Lu Rankong released him and said, "If you speak again, I will use this method to shut you up."

"I didn't, I just—uh—"

"Okay, I'll stop talking—uh—"

Before dawn, Chen Yutan's voice came from the corridor: "K, Rankong, Xiaozhu, wake up, pack up and get ready to go."

The four of them washed up quickly, and Lu Rankong went downstairs to pick up the cold-proof underwear from the automatic delivery machine, which he and Lan Yu wore in field uniforms.

When they were going out, the two people on the opposite side were also going out. Chen Yutan saw Lu Rankong coming out of Lan Yu's room, showing a surprised expression. Only Lin Zhu lowered his head, covered his mouth with his hand and coughed twice, pretending not to see it.

After getting on the vehicle picked up downstairs, we soon arrived at the landing pad. A huge starship was warming up, the hatch was wide open, and soldiers were lining up to go up.

"Hello, Colonel K." The mecha soldiers of the second battalion hadn't seen Lan Yu for a while, and knew that he was on a mission. Now that they saw him back, they all greeted him. Lan Yu nodded slightly in response.

"Father, you're back." The third battalion called Lu Rankong with a playful smile.

Lu Rankong smiled and stepped forward to kick a few people, then retreated to Lan Yu's side.

Soon everyone boarded the starship, the soldiers of the four battalions gathered in a large cabin, and the four of Lan Yu went to the officer's lounge.

After a while, the starship made a tremor and slowly rose into the sky. After reaching a certain height, it accelerated towards the vast space.

Because everyone hadn't eaten breakfast yet, after the starship sailed smoothly into the established orbit, some soldiers pushed the dining wheel to deliver food in turn.

Lan Yu also took one, which was a fried egg, a huge sandwich, and a glass of milk.

As soon as he picked up the milk cup, Lu Rankong touched the wall of the cup and said, "The milk is still a little hot, let it cool down before drinking."

Lan Yu fed all the milk to his mouth and put it back. Lu Rankong took the plate in front of him, cut the thick and large sandwich into small pieces, and fed a piece to his mouth with a fork.

Lan Yu took a bite naturally, and looked at her terminal while chewing. Lu Rankong held his sandwich in his left hand and ate it. He kept holding the fork in his right hand, and fed it again when Lan Yu swallowed the food in his mouth. .

The atmosphere in the cabin became very strange. Chen Yutan turned his head to look at the porthole while eating. Although it was dark outside, he seemed to be looking at some interesting scenery.Lin Zhu lowered his head and sipped his milk, sneaking glances at the two people opposite him from time to time, and then quickly turned his gaze away.

After breakfast was finished and the soldiers took away all the plates, the voice of the deputy captain came through the intercom: "The starship is about to enter the first transition point, and the ship will experience bumps. Everyone sit in their seats. Well, don't move around."

All four of them left the officer's rest cabin to check on their soldiers, and returned to the cabin after seeing that they were all staying in their positions peacefully.

Lan Yu sat firmly and fastened her seat belt. One minute later, she felt the starship tremble and sway.He turned his head to look at the porthole, and there were overflowing lines and jumping light spots outside, which meant that the starship was undergoing a space transition.

"Although Viya Star is very far away from us, there are several transition points built in the middle, which are faster than going to Quya Star, and we will arrive in a few hours." Seeing him staring outside, Lu Rankong thought he was Is sitting impatiently.

The turbulence lasted for about a minute and then stopped, the lines and light spots outside the porthole disappeared, and a magnificent and vast sea of ​​stars appeared in the field of vision.

In the far distance, there are colorful nebulae, dotted with large and small stars, so clear that they seem to be hanging by the window within reach.

Although it was not the first time for Lan Yu to see such a scene, she was still deeply shocked.

"It looks very close, right? In fact, it no longer belongs to the Sasu galaxy, and it is so far away that there is no interstellar channel to reach it." Lu Rankong followed his line of sight and explained softly in his ear.

Chen Yutan and Lin Zhu sat across from them, each lowered their heads and fiddled with the terminal, so quiet that they didn't even seem to be breathing.

The starship shuttled rapidly through space, and after crossing two transition points, Lan Yu saw a gray-white planet, suspended in the darkness coldly.

The voice of the deputy captain appeared in the loudspeaker at the right time: "There are still 10 minutes before our starship will land on the surface of Via, and everyone is ready for landing."

The starship moved forward at a very high speed. Through the porthole, Lan Yu saw the gray-white planet zoom in rapidly, and soon the bright and dark outline of the surface could be seen.

"It looks like we can land on the front this time." Lu Rankong also leaned over the porthole to look out, and said in his mouth: "The hurricane has just passed, and the weather is good."

Lin Zhu pulled the safety belt and fastened it on himself, bowed his head and said, "The last time Chen Yuqin and I came to perform an inspection mission, there was a hurricane blowing in the front. We could only land on the back, collect a few samples in a hurry, and leave, Brother Chen It was almost swept away by the wind.”

Chen Yutan didn't make a sound, just smiled and touched his head, looking very embarrassed.

Lan Yu tugged at Lu Rankong, who was still looking outside, and told him, "Sit down and don't move, it's about to land."

All four sat in their seats, fastened their seat belts, and waited for the starship to land.Lin Zhu was opposite Lan Yu, always looking at him.

Ever since she boarded the starship, Lan Yu found that Lin Zhu would always peek at him when people were not paying attention, and finally couldn't help asking: "Captain Lin, is there something dirty on my face?"

"Ah?" Lin Zhu was asked suddenly, and he was stunned for a few seconds before he realized it, and quickly shook his head and said, "No, your face is very clean."

"Then why do you keep looking at me?" Lan Yu asked with a smile.

Lin Zhu's baby face turned red, and he stammered, "No, I didn't read it, oh, I did."

Lu Rankong swished his head to look at him, his eyes were like two sharp swords.

Lin Zhu stuttered even more, and with great difficulty he managed to say a complete sentence: "I, I just, just think that Colonel K has become, has become a little weird."

After speaking, he quickly added: "It's not weird, it's just that it's different from before, like a different person."

Lan Yu stared at him fixedly, his eyes were like two sharp swords.

"Hey, I just didn't know Colonel K before, and I didn't expect him to be quite easy-going, and I didn't expect you and Colonel Lu to have such a good relationship." Under the gaze of the four swords, Lin Zhu finally expressed himself completely and fluently. Thoughts, he let out a long sigh of relief after speaking.

Lan Yu didn't make a sound, but Lu Rankong laughed, "So you all saw the relationship between me and K?"

"What? Talk, fall in love? I thought you were just on a good relationship, but it turned out to be in love?" Not to mention that Lin Zhu was shocked, even Chen Yutan raised his head to look at the two of them.

"Can't you see it?" Lu Rankong asked.

"Look, I can tell." Lin Zhu said dryly, "It's just a little hard to think about."

Chen Yuqin desperately nodded in agreement.

The starship began to slow down and entered the atmosphere of Via Star. What Lan Yu saw was an endless glacier, and the whole world was a vast expanse of white.

At this moment, there was no wind or cloud, the visibility was extremely high, and the weather was fine. The starship slowly descended and landed smoothly among several glaciers.

Lu Rankong picked up the communicator next to the cabin door, and said to the soldier's cabin: "It's already landed, everyone put on the cold clothes and get ready to leave the ship, the cabin is about to open, everyone checks that they have put on the cold clothes No more. Don’t freeze into an ice lump when the hatch is opened.”

After speaking, he opened the dark cabinet beside him, took out a set of clothes and handed them to Lan Yu: "Put on the cold clothes."

It is made of special white material, similar to a spacesuit, and it also has a round helmet. After several people are dressed neatly and then checked, Lu Rankong puts the cold backpack with the woolen handle cover and nutrients on his shoulders. , together to the soldiers cabin.

The soldiers also put on their cold clothes, and with the sound of air pressure releasing, the hatch at the rear of the starship slowly opened.

The overwhelming cold wind brought snowflakes into the cabin, and the temperature dropped below zero in an instant. The remaining water in the water glass, after eating half an apple, began to freeze, including the walls and seats, making a slight beeping sound .

Lu Rankong blocked Lan Yu behind him, and when the cold wind subsided, he walked to the door of the ship and shouted: "Get out of the cabin..."

The weapon conveyor belts on both sides began to rotate slowly, and the soldiers quickly took turns out of the cabin, each of them took a ion gun and equipment bag, and then put a mecha ring on their wrist.

Lan Yu stayed at the end, and after getting her equipment in order, she followed Lu Rankong and jumped off the high hatch.
