It hurts to touch me [Interstellar]

"What are you doing?" Xia Zuo looked at Black Star warily.

The other party had already sent him back to the room, but suddenly raised his palm and landed on his shoulder.

When Xia Zuo sensed a burst of icy mental power spreading from his shoulders, his face couldn't help but change. Fortunately, Black Star quickly withdrew his mental power.

"He restored your mental strength."

Xia Zuo had already seen that Black Star and Li Ou knew each other. Normally, Xia Zuo would have revealed a little about what ?oz had done to him, but after Black Star said "first come, first served", Xia Zuo decided to keep it a secret.

"none of your business?"

Xia Zuo stared at the other party with stern eyes, but only stared at the darkness under the hood—what the hell, what is the material of the robe?

Black Star wasn't angry at all, and said slowly: "I don't care, after all, no matter what happened just now, you won't have a chance."

"……Say it again?"

Black Star turned around to leave, Xia Zuo secretly told himself if he had any face? The truth is important, and the truth is undoubtedly the shortest path to a happy bond——

"Why don't I? Have? A chance?" Xia Zuo asked his background.

Hei Xing seemed to have known that he had? After asking this question, he turned around leisurely again, and said, "Because you are still... you should move out of the hotel as soon as possible."

"..."? ? ?

Or what, giant baby?what exactly is it? ! !

Damn it, is this person so vile? !

Asland walked away slowly, ignoring the eager gaze behind him, and pulled his hood, smiling in a good mood.

……

"As a single leader who has not been divided for a long time, you will eventually have a strong desire to form a bond with the ethnic group and form a group in human society. The matter of the Arbitration Court is fine, but you should not even think about freedom. Resist the opportunity to choose a partner, right?"

"As an AI girl, how can you just urge your father to marry you?"

"..." Saoirse choked for a moment, "Maybe Xia Zuo is different from... the others. He has just grown up, and even his loyalty is pure. He is an outgoing personality. He is funny, simple, and smart. Maybe he is your new one. The key to another life, Dad."

"..."

"Of course, we? We all know this? It's just a hypothesis," Saoirse said nonchalantly. "You've obviously had enough 'trouble', I? Just wanted to know what you think."

"Which way of thinking?"

"Do you think Xia Zuo is suitable to be your ethnic group?"

"There's something wrong with your asking this question." Li Ou wasn't fooled at all, "I've never considered who is suitable for my ethnicity."

But inevitably, Li Ou thought that when he was treating Xia Zuo just now, his mental power would be withdrawn every few seconds after he exerted pressure—one of the reasons was that he didn’t want to deepen the influence on Xia Zuo, or was there another reason that Li Ou felt However, Xia Zuo himself is not tough enough to bear more pain.

Not to mention letting him form a clan with himself, it may completely ruin this young man.

But Saoirse couldn't really understand pain, and Leo didn't want to explain this specific association to her, and felt it was a bit blatant.

"Don't disturb me, I love being single." Li Ou quickly concluded.

"Oh," Saoirse said happily, "Then Xia Zuo may have to rest for a few days, we can't take him with us."

"I didn't say I would take him with me." After speaking, Li Ou recovered from the trouble of treating Xia Zuo before, but when he stood up, his heartbeat suddenly increased for a moment, and an irritating black mist rose in front of his eyes.

"Leo?"

Saoirse was a little uneasy, Leo sighed, and laughed at himself: "Don't worry, everything is normal."

"I? I'm worried about the red thorn, it puts too much pressure on you." Saoirse opened the hatch for Leo.

"It's honest," Li Ou said, "Besides, isn't it just right for treatment now?"

Stepped out of the aircraft with the front foot, and the hatch behind closed after a while, the little girl sighed in the ear, and said lazily: "Okay."

……

The next morning, Li Ou was woken up by the sound of music, and opened the door in his nightgown. Manager Jie stood outside the door in the same clothes as yesterday.

"Mr. Maiou," Manager Jie showed a friendly smile, "I'm here to remind you that your medical package has been booked successfully, and the consultation time will be in one hour."

"...I received the message yesterday."

"Yes I know."

Li Ou waited for a moment, he became more awake, because Manager Jie was still standing in front of him, he had to ask, "What's the matter?"

Manager Jie said: "In case you want to know, the restaurant underwent a serious 'rectification' last night, and the food waste generated by the back kitchen will be decomposed in situ."

Li Ou didn't change his face: "I? I'm not interested in the back kitchen."

"Oh, of course." Manager Jie nodded, "You don't have to worry about it. I usually tell all the guests personally about this kind of news."

"Very thoughtful."

"It's all what I should do," Manager Jie smiled, "In addition, the hotel will give compensation for one year's room fee exemption to some unfortunate guests who were injured by kitchen waste—in case you want to know."

Li Ou couldn't help raising his eyebrows, he was a little surprised, this kind of extravagant hotel, exempt from one year's accommodation fee?

For the current Xia Zuo, he might be able to save a black bargaining chip. Manager Jie's compensation is not unreasonable.

"I? I see. Is there? Anything else?" Li Ou suddenly felt that Manager Jie was pleasing to the eye.

At first, I thought that Manager Jie was going to collect debts for Oz and his team, but now it seems that Manager Jie is a sensible person.

"The aircraft has been arranged for your trip. Please arrive at the medical location 5 minutes before the appointment time - because it is your first time to go, you still need to register in person to get the medical card. In addition, you must be reminded not to bring any arms."

The door of the room closes in front of you.

Saoirse couldn't help saying: "I register? Medical card?"

Leo was also a little skeptical after hearing this, thinking that the so-called winter nest might be more closed and primitive than Saoirse guessed.

……

The Winter Nest is not far from the Lauren Hotel, and the aircraft can fly down at high speed for more than ten minutes.

Leo had seen the appearance of Winter's Nest through the image sent back by Saoirse before, but he could better understand the weirdness of this place when he saw it with his own eyes.

The small aircraft continuously bypasses the ruins of the building that have been abandoned for many years. Far away from the back of the Lauren Hotel, there is no extra parking pad here. There are a few starships connected to energy cables. The old models can’t even be called out by Leo. , Even if the portholes are lighted, they are still dim and gloomy, as if there are some strange shadows, entrenched behind those dim portholes and watching them pass by coldly.

The Winter Nest is at the end of the ruins, and the aircraft parked in front of it seem to be facing an absolutely insurmountable world barrier.

——A fortress made of ancient alloy, firmly embedded in the construction of the Holy Code City like a patch.

The high steel walls of Holy Code City have been oxidized and discolored, but the exposed outer shell of Winternest Fortress is still shining like new, like a huge white eye, the small hole in the center opens? Closes, every time it swallows a fruit fly-sized aircraft.

All the flying equipment entered in an orderly manner, and Li Ou was at the end. Seeing that the entire window of the aircraft was covered with silver metal, the opening and closing holes gradually became larger, getting closer and closer to him.

Saoirse whispered in his ear, "See you later, Leo."

"see you later."

Li Ou took out the communicator from his ear.

It was dark, and the aircraft burrowed into the huge entrance tunnel of Winter Nest.

With a sound, the metal door rotated and closed behind him, and Li Ou's eyes lit up. The aircraft first entered a large and round empty cabin, with pipes protruding from the surrounding walls and diamond-shaped entrances and exits extending in all directions, which imitated the shape of an insect nest. It looks almost older than the shell age.

When he was observing this space, the terminal on his wrist vibrated, sending out a signal that only Li Ou could feel and he could understand.

The signal said: [Hello, Leo. 】

【I? It's Xiya】

[Defense mode is on.Searching for external signals—the search failed, the network has been disconnected, trying to enter the regional network...]

[...Contact the shield—start? Start invading—the invisible window has been opened—discover electronic intelligence—"Winter"—authority fusion—]

Li Ou quietly felt the message from the terminal, because he was familiar with this communication method, the translation speed in his mind was almost synchronized.

"Sia" is the electronic intelligence that Saoirse separated from herself. In order to prevent Saoirse from being captured, Saoirse will send Sia to explore the way when she sneaks into some unknown and isolated area, while the main body stays Prepare to invade with physical force at all times on the periphery.

So? Esia is equivalent to the electronic pioneer, dead man and death shield created by Saoirse.

Li Ou has cooperated with Xi Ya many times in his previous life, but because Xi Ya will be completely analyzed by Saoirse after completing the task, so it has no memory and is completely one-off. Alright...I'm Sia."

Lauren Hotel's exclusive soundtrack sounded in the aircraft, and Xi Ya turned on the communicator for him.

"Dear Mr. Maiou," came a calm and soft voice through the communication, "Please follow the indicator lights to the appointment room, and it is forbidden to deviate from the course."

Along the way, Li Ou silently observed this place with his naked eyes.

The aircraft passed through the canyon-like gap, and every time he turned the direction, Li Ou could see a large number of unlit, dark and abandoned spaces in the distance, as well as huge pipelines leading to nowhere.

This fortress alone can hide at least millions of soldiers. As for the supplies needed, under the cover of the chaotic lights and shadows of the Holy Code City and the comings and goings of starships, an undetected transportation channel has been established. It's also easy.

Li Ou was making various guesses in his mind, and even hoped that there would be one on the spot? The flaws of the imperial army jumped before his eyes.

The aircraft trembled suddenly, and there was a dull docking sound outside the cabin door, and then everything returned to calm.

Sia quieted down, and Li Ou manually opened the hatch.

The bright passageway leads directly to the feet, and the air suddenly becomes warm.

Li Ou stepped on the white floor wearing protective clothing, and the soles of his boots made light noises. He walked towards the room at the end without squinting.

The warm air seemed to come from the room. When Li Ou walked in, his eyes suddenly opened up. Compared with the nest, this place seemed much more luxurious, which reminded Li Ou of the special medical area of ​​Proxima Centauri.

In accordance with the regular distribution of treatment equipment, treatment cabins of various functional types are complete, and apart from Li Ou, there are only two white glue-skinned robot assistants in the entire space, and a male doctor waiting by the operating table.

The other party seemed to have been waiting for a while, with their fingers crossed on their knees, looking quite calm.

Li Ou stopped at an appropriate distance.

After a short silence, the doctor who looked at him spoke first: "Your name is very famous here recently."

His voice was as relaxed as his movements, and the tone of his statement sounded a little dull.

"What kind of famous method?"

"I've been here for so many years, and I haven't seen this kind of situation—everyone is sent in by the same person."

"You seem to be thanking me."

The other party stopped responding, just smiled slightly, and observed Li Ou for a while, and finally his eyes fell on Li Ou's hand hanging by his side.

"I heard that your hand hasn't received any treatment." The doctor said calmly, "Some people say that you are an admirer of 'letting nature take its course'."

"I'm just accumulating chips," Li Ou told honestly, "I don't have any tendency to abuse myself."

"……yes?"

"kindness?"

"It's nothing." After speaking, he stood up conveniently and walked towards Li Ou, "Let me see." He said.

Li Ou's body tensed up suddenly.

"To be honest, if you traded with those patients who came here before, you might have already saved enough."

Hearing the words of this doctor, Li Ou felt that the space between his chest and abdomen gradually narrowed, and the atmosphere became tense——

When the doctor stood up, the extraordinary height, compact bone structure, including the gait during walking, quickly aroused Li Ou's sensitive nerves.

This? A leader of an empire.
