I don't do A anymore!

Lin Chi, who returned with a full load, walked out of the gate of the Starport Administration.

The spaceship was towed away by the staff of the management authority in front of him, and after he bought a bag of various food at the gate, he boarded his own airship and began to rush to the outpost.

When he returned to the outpost, the entire outpost was silent.

Lin Chi noticed the "Third Link" standard airship parked at the door, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Before he could enter the door, Old Tang, who was supposed to be staying in the duty room, rushed out. He looked at Lin Chi in a panic, and then seriously lowered his voice and said to Lin Chi: "Assault from above!" Check, be careful not to slip your tongue."

Lin Chi nodded, indicating that he knew, and then stuffed the still steaming food into Old Tang's hands.

"eat."

Old Tang took the food and was still a little emotional.

Hot food is more expensive than cold food,? This is common sense,? For people in the "third link chain", drinking cold nutrient solution is even more common.

Lin Chi didn't say anything more. After all, he is different from the interstellar people who eat cold food every day. In his heart, real food should be steaming hot.

He made some adjustments to his appearance, and then he opened the door of the duty room and walked in.

"Sorry, I just went out for a stroll...to go?"

The light in the duty room is relatively dim. In order to ensure that the on-duty staff can concentrate on the real-time changing star map,? However, before Lin Chi can close the door tightly, the inspector who came to check said: "No Now you are making up a reason to fool me, you just took away a hundred thousand bonus from the Scarlet Starport Administration."

Lin Chi: "..."

His well-acted eyebrows and eyes suddenly relaxed,

All life-like details, like traces of a human being, all disappeared in this instant.

"Come here as soon as you come, why are you pretending to be a watchdog?"

Beta, who was wearing the "Third Chain" surveillance uniform, kicked the metal plate next to him, and the rotating and sliding chair under his buttocks turned around smoothly, and the whole person turned to face Lin Chi.

Lin Chi went over and took out a folding chair placed in the duty room, pulled it out and sat down, looked at the supervisor and said: "Zhang Yida, before you come next time, say hello to me first, don't keep bluffing."

However, Zhang Yida didn't show any more expressions because of Lin Chi's words, he just said playfully: "The empire has negotiated peace with the alliance."

Lin Chi frowned: "Haven't they talked for three years?"

Zhang Yida shook his head: "This time it's a real peace talk."

Lin Chi raised his eyebrows: "Could it be a fake peace talk before that?"

Zhang Yida: "Until the most appropriate balance of power is not reached, all peace talks are sham."

Lin Chi: "Then our peace with the empire is really fake."

Zhang Yida smiled: "Yes, but if we hand you over, it will be different."

His hair was already showing a subtle graying.

"Everyone knows that the great emperor of the empire is a madman who wants his wife to die. I believe that even if we propose to take over the entire empire, as long as we hand you over, he will agree."

Lin Chi: "..."

He thought about it seriously: "Then this plot really has the essence of family ethics, morality, and emotional overlord Michong drama."

After a pause: "Also, I'm not his wife."

Zhang Yida: "Almost, it's not like you don't know how much our culture is different from Interstellar people? Don't lose your temper."

Lin Chi: "Then why did you come to me?"

Zhang Yida: "Do you want to change your partner on duty at the sentry?"

Lin Chi: "So you came all the way to find me just to change my partner on duty?"

Zhang Yida didn't continue to entangle on this issue, he raised his hand to show Lin Chi the photo he took, it was a photo of him and Lin Chi's clone, a very inadvertent snapshot.

Lin Chi took the photo and glanced at it lightly: "What?"

Zhang Yida: "I have already met your empire clone, he is very interesting."

Lin Chi thought of Lin Hui: "He should be another independent person, not my clone anymore."

If it is said that the empire and the alliance are now in sincere peace talks, then Lin Hui may indeed be sent to lead the team.

Only Lin Hui can hold back the group of rational lunatics in the alliance.

When he was in the alliance before, because of his identity, he had never met the real core of the Central Academy, and he didn't know what happened to the group of truth lunatics.

Let's hope they don't want to destroy the world yet.

Zhang Yida: "His time is running out."

Lin Chi clapped his hands, got up and prepared to leave to find something to eat, he was starving to death, and hadn't eaten for a long time.

When he heard Zhang Yida's words, he couldn't help but replied: "Then I don't have much time."

After a pause: "Everyone's time is limited. If you just want to chat with me, you should go back now. I still have to work. Even the inspector can't affect my work."

However, Zhang Yida stroked his hair, and said: "Time is not time, I don't want to pursue it anymore, for time survivors like us, maybe death is sometimes the best relief... I only have one now." Question, have you made a decision?"

Lin Chi raised his eyebrows and looked back at him, holding the old folding chair in his hand, about to stuff it back.

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Yida held a red star badge in his hand, and he spread his palm, even the palm was covered with aging lines.

"Just like your previous body, a 'living person' like me who has been dormant and preserved from a long, long time ago cannot live for too long in this era."

Lin Chi lowered his eyes suddenly.

His dark amber eyes narrowed in an instant, and he stared silently at the ground. Finally, he pushed back the folding chair in his hand and sat down.

Seeing Lin Chi's performance, Zhang Yida finally smiled, with deep lines of law on the corner of his mouth: "So, when will you succeed me? You can't let me die here? I haven't even been in a relationship yet." Woolen cloth."

Lin Chi took a deep breath: "In the first year when I was made into a life-extending living specimen, I was very happy because I came back to life."

"That was a miracle."

"But when the first year of this miracle ended, I felt seriously dull, boring, and bored. Because I can contact the outside world every day, and the time I get information is only the time they conduct experiments. Besides, I I can’t feel any existence from the outside world, just like being alone in an abyss that can’t sink to the bottom, there is nothing around me, only nothingness.”

"Normal people can't experience this feeling."

"My mentality was the most problematic during that time, but then the pure nothingness that was more terrifying than someone experimenting on me came—that is, your dark period—the whole hometown fell into a dust cloud of postponement In the haze, no one would care to experiment on me."

"I've always been clear that after losing my human form, I'm no longer fully human."

Lin Chi raised his eyes, looking at Zhang Yida with clear dark amber eyes.

"There is no concept of time in nothingness. I don't know how many times I have been defeated by emotional collapse, but I can't even die, so I can only work hard to live. I suddenly understand the story I heard from my grandfather when I was young. The story of the devil in the bottle caught by the fisherman was also the only point of support for me not to become a devil. I didn’t know how long before I started counting. When I counted to 136428464071, someone finally remembered I."

Zhang Yida apologized earnestly: "Tu Xiuling actually remembers you all the time, but at that time...we didn't have the strength and time to wake you up from dormancy...I'm sorry."

Lin Chi smiled: "It's okay, it's all over."

His appearance is too calm, with the easy-going attitude of turning thousands of years of emptiness and pain into jokes.

Zhang Yida: "Although it is very inappropriate, I still want to ask you, what are you thinking about? We are really short of people."

Lin Chi: "Am I a human again now?"

Zhang Yida: "Of course."

As he said, he threw the red star badge into Lin Chi's arms: "You are now a full-fledged human being, and you are a legal citizen of the Third Republic. You can choose to go to any normal place by yourself. Live there, or do anything that doesn't hurt anyone."

Lin Chi wanted to interrupt when he heard Zhang Yida's words, but Zhang Yida didn't give him a chance, instead he abruptly raised his voice, overwhelming his words.

"But before you make a decision, I want to tell you something very important."

Lin Chi: "Huh?"

Zhang Yida: "In the first year after your last remote-controlled body died, Mo Lansi came to us."

"When he found the third link chain, he was very haggard."

After a pause, Zhang Yida looked at the details of the expression on Lin Chi's face, and continued: "We doubt whether he will die as soon as he confirms the news of your death. Besides, we all guess that he came to us to ask for help. Yours, although he still seems to have some memory confusion, he should have some logical guesses about your specific identity and purpose-after all, he is the only one in the alliance so far that barely meets the standard of 'God' The experimental product—but we all guessed wrong, he didn’t make a request to us in the end, forcing us to hand you over.”

When Zhang Yida said this, a strange light shone in his eyes.

He said: "Merlans is just asking us to let him experience the 'life' that you have experienced."

Lin Chi frowned.

"what do you mean……"

Zhang Yida: "Yes, it's exactly what you think."

"We helped him strip away 90.00% of the nine senses of human beings, and finally he stayed inside for 30 days. After 30 days, we accepted the request of the crown prince of the empire to wake up Morans and restore his senses."

"He said 'thank you' very politely to us as soon as he woke up."

Zhang Yida showed a joking smile.

"To be honest, you did educate him very well. Sometimes he doesn't look like an invincible emperor with thousands of stars in his hands, but more like a friend of ours."

"Oh, by the way, Tu Xiuling even took a video. She said she didn't want to see you for the time being, so she had to ask me to give you this. Also, she asked me not to tell you about it."

Lin Chi: "..."

He opened his terminal and accepted the video sent to him by Zhang Yida.

In the image, Melanth's handsome face is calm, like the purest sleeping beauty in fairy tales. Three seconds later, he opened his eyes without any warning. His beautiful silvery pupils are like the sharpest eyes. The blade dissects every human being he glances at.

Too indifferent.

For a moment, Lin Chi even felt as if he was looking at the eyes of a simulated robot in a sci-fi movie he watched long, long ago.

Mo Lansi closed his eyes suddenly, his platinum eyelashes trembled slightly, and finally let out a sigh.

【"thanks."】

Although the impassable time and the vast universe lie across, Lin Chi has an inexplicable feeling... Is Mo Lansi... saying these words to him?

A drop of crystal clear tears rolled down from the corner of Mo Lansi's eyes, as if carrying boiling sublimation and extremely cold temperature at the same time, and finally slipped into his thick platinum hair and disappeared.

"sand."

With a slight sound, Lin Chi saw Zhang Yida handing him a tissue when he came back to his senses.

"Scrub."

While Lin Chi took the tissue, he raised his hand to touch his cheek, and sure enough, he felt wet and cold on his cheek.

He cried unconsciously.

"According to my understanding, Merlans should be on the same starship as Lin Hui now, and he should return to the Empire from the Alliance soon—the Empire will use the 'third link' to return to the capital star—the Empire China's foreign service has already reached a basic back-tracking agreement with our foreign service."

"They will stay in the 'Crimson Capital' for at least 24 hours to take a rest."

"That's all I have to tell you."

After saying this, Zhang Yida gave Lin Chi a minute to calm down, and finally asked him: "So, what is your choice?"

Lin Chi laughed softly: "Recommend me a suitable barber teacher. I need to dye my hair. It seems inappropriate to meet my partner with such white hair."

Zhang Yida was silent for a second, and took out a business card from his pocket.

"Report Tu Xiuling's name for a discount."

Lin Chi: "Why do you always obey her?"

Zhang Yida smiled: "She forced it on me, how do I know what she means? I'm not her."

The two smiled at each other.

Thousands of stars in the middle died and rekindled.

……

After Zhang Yida left, Old Tang hurried to the duty room.

As soon as he saw Lin Chi, he grabbed his arm and asked him repeatedly: "What's the matter? Have we fooled it?"

Lin Chi touched his chin, and narrowed his beautiful peach eyes: "It's barely fooled."

Old Tang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Lin Chi seems to have white hair all over his head, it is obvious from his face that Lin Chi is much younger than Old Tang, but Old Tang still trusts this young man inexplicably, and even wants to call him involuntarily big brother.

Before Old Tang could relax, Lin Chi slapped him the duty card in his hand.

Old Tang:?

Lin Chi: "I'll ask you to be on duty for the next day's shift. I'm going to dye my hair."

Old Tang held his duty card: "Ah... I've been persuading you for so long, but you didn't dye your hair, why do you suddenly remember... Wait, you don't like that inspector, do you?! "

Lin Chi: "..."

"what are you thinking?"

He directly transferred [-] credit points of the Third Republic in his account to Old Tang, then patted Old Tang on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "When you are on duty, remember to eat hot food and drink hot water. You have to learn to take care of your body, and take good care of your body for the worries of your family, understand?"

Old Tang nodded hurriedly, but after opening his account and seeing the balance in it, he froze in place.

Lin Chi walked a long way, and was within a step of getting into his tattered airship, only to hear Old Tang's exclamation.

"Fuck?!"

"Brother Lin?! Did you go to steal the merchant ship? Why did you suddenly give me [-]?! Are you rich?!"

"Did I make a wrong transfer? I will transfer the wrong eight thousand back to—"

Lin Chi leaned against the airship at the berth, with the magnificent galaxy behind him, he smiled and said, "No need, my partner is Scarlet from the Empire, and I can see him in a few days, no need to save up for a boat ticket." !"

There was palpable joy and exuberance in his voice.

When Old Tang heard Lin Chi yelling these words from him across the air, he was stunned for a second.

From the first day when he saw this new tune come to work with him as his partner, Old Tang had never seen Lin Chi look so happy.

It's as if... it's as if it's alive.

Old Tang couldn't help calling Lin Chi to stop.

"Brother Lin—your partner must be very beautiful, right?"

Lin Chi seriously recalled for a second, all the fragments about Mo Lansi in his memory.

Morans' appearance is no longer simply beautiful or beautiful to describe, and it is impossible for human language to describe his appearance in detail when it is actually used to describe him.

But Lin Chi knew very well that as long as he saw Mo Lansi, his mood would improve.

This is also the main reason why those Tie Hanhans in the military department hated little Mo Lansi very much, but when Lin Chi was in a bad mood, whenever he had the opportunity, he would invite Mo Lan Si to face Lin Chi's anger for them.

Lin Chi leaned against the streamlined appearance of the airship, showing his slender and tall waist to the fullest. Only half of his half-length white hair was pinned behind his ears, while the other half fell lazily and straight to his chin, leaving a loose shadow .

The black work vest outlines an excellent body outline, two or three inadvertent mechanical stains rubbed on the gray earth green denim jacket, and the open-necked vest only allows people to see a small section of elegant and tough collarbone, which has been stuck in the starless light for many years. Pale to slightly translucent skin under normal exposure.

His distinct Adam's apple rolled, and finally he laughed involuntarily.

"That's not—it's so pretty."

Old Tang laughed immediately, he was Beta, and he had a Beta wife who worked as a cook in Scarlet.

They came to the Crimson Capital to save money to go home and open a restaurant.

Lin Chi suddenly transferred him [-] points today, which just happened to make their savings meet their expectations.

Like a dream, and a little dizzy.

He didn't think much, and instinctively said: "Sister-in-law is really lucky to meet such a good husband as Brother Lin."

Lin Chi pursed his lips: "How do you know it must be sister-in-law? What if it is..."

Old Tang hurriedly apologized: "Sorry, sorry, I thought—the main reason is not that Brother Lin, you are too—well—that you instinctively think that the partner of someone like you should, should be a very gentle person Right……"

Lin Chi smiled softly: "My partner is really gentle."

He took a deep breath: "He is the best person in the world in my heart."

Old Tang was a little sluggish.

I don't know why, but for the first time he, who always shows his affection so much that it makes others feel broken, feels like being shown his face.

"Ahh! I don't listen, I don't listen! Don't show affection, don't show affection!"

But at this time, Lin Chi had already left the outpost, and the airship sailed into the thousands of stars.

……

Hair salons are full of people in fancy dress.

For Lin Chi, they may be quite strange, but this is actually the most normal aesthetic of the StarCraft era.

When Lin Chi walked into the hairdressing salon, the news program of the official media of the Third Republic happened to be showing on the public terminal.

Exactly about the Empire vs. Alliance peace talks.

Lin Hui's image showed a full range of holographic images on the terminal, and his tall and straight uniform was as cool and tough as pines and cypresses.

The owner of the hair salon leaned against the counter, Lin Chi walked over the terminal, and immediately handed over the business card Zhang Yida gave him.

The boss was taken aback when he saw Lin Chi.

"Damn it! I thought the commander of the empire came out of the hologram!"

Lin Chi smiled gently at the surprised boss.

The boss took a look at the business card, and nodded towards Lin Chi: "Understood, the person under the cover of Sister Tu."

He took a look at Lin Chi's hair: "It's white, it's pure enough—well—it's just that the shape is a bit earthy——it looks like it came out of a hologram."

Lin Chi narrowed his eyes: "Can the imperial style be done?"

The boss touched his chin: "The style of the empire may be a little more expensive."

Lin Chi: "Money is not a problem."

The boss raised his eyebrows with spades: "Aren't all of you poor?"

Lin Chi tapped the table with his knuckles: "If you want to meet someone, you have to be poor, don't you?"

Boss: "That makes sense."

"But I haven't seen a person like you have a partner. It's the first time I've seen you."

"What kind of look do you want? But to be honest, your facial features are pretty good, but it's a pity that you're not an Alpha, or else you'd be surrounded by Omegas when you go out."

Lin Chi touched the tip of his nose.

He changed back to the main body, but the main body has not yet entered the differentiation period, so the embarrassing fact is that he is very old, but his body has not yet reached the standard for a fully adult human being in the interstellar era.

If nothing unexpected happens, he should still differentiate into A by then.

After all, his body and body were manufactured in the same batch.

The boss seemed to have misunderstood what Lin Chi meant, and he hurriedly said, "You are so good-looking, no matter if it is A or B, there will be people queuing up to confess."

Lin Chi: "Yes."

The boss touched his purple hair with a half-upright flashing light hanging in front of his eyes: "Then I can play freely, and I promise to satisfy you. Sit down."
