That night, Tan Xuyang couldn't sleep well.

Cen Chu had nightmares all night, during which Tan Xuyang tried to shake him awake twice to interrupt his sleep.

But when Cen Chu closed his eyes and fell asleep again, his whole face would wrinkle into a painful look again.

This made Tan Xuyang so worried that he couldn't sleep at all, so he just kept his eyes open and watched Cen Chu sleep all night.

Waking up the next day, Tan Xuyang wanted to take Cen Chu to the medical department.

But today is the day of Sha Yao's public funeral, and Cen Chu should not be absent, both public and private.

A lot of people came to the funeral.

Except for those who could not move in key positions, almost the entire eleventh ship participated in the funeral.

Sha Yao has served as commander-in-chief for 17 years. This year is already half a lifetime for many people on the Eleventh Ship, which has a majority of young and middle-aged people. Most people have long been accustomed to his position, even until now, If only mentioning the word Commander, most people would think of Sha Yao first.

Commander Sha's work results cannot be said to be unparalleled, and they have not solved the problems that have always existed on the eleventh ship, but no one can deny that during his tenure, the safety and stability of the entire eleventh ship are relatively stable. Very well maintained.

After the eulogy was read, an extremely sad atmosphere permeated the audience.The choking sound of the crowd could be heard faintly.

The three giants of the general headquarters and the ministers of various departments stood at the innermost side, and stepped forward to lay wreaths one by one.Cen Chu was not in good health, so Tan Xuyang mingled among a group of high-level officials and went forward with Cen Chu. Fortunately, the eleventh ship has not been strict with such customs, and no one will care about these trivial matters.

In the distance, a middle-aged man who was personally detained by the deputy army commander bowed deeply towards the funeral with tears in his eyes.

The funeral came to an end quickly.

The crowd gradually dispersed, while Cen Chu, Fu Ling, Li Rong, Yan Zhi, and some of the deputies in the headquarters who had been closest to Commander Sha stayed in the cemetery for a while.

The deputies lined up one by one and went up to talk to Commander Sha for a while. Fu Ling, Li Rong and others also planned to do so, but they wanted to talk more and planned to take up a lot of time, so they consciously stepped aside Wait till the end.Li Rong and Sha Yao had a very good relationship. After a funeral, this man who hadn't shed a single tear on the day of Sha Ling's accident had red eyes.

"Are you waiting too?" Tan Xuyang asked in a low voice, supporting Cen Chu to stand aside.

"No, I didn't intend to go up," Cen Chu tightened his coat and said softly, "I just want to stand here for a while."

Tan Xuyang couldn't say anything, so he could only stand here with him.

Cen Chu was very quiet, saying that he could not stand up, he really did not go up. Like a bystander, he watched the other people go to the grave one by one and squat down, whispering a few words with the deceased, or Choked up in a low voice, or covered his face and sobbed.

His gaze was very deep, and Tan Xuyang looked down quietly, completely unable to distinguish any emotion from these eyes.

Some people planned to come up to say hello and say a few words after the funeral, but although Cen Chu was so weak at this time that he could only stand steadily with Tan Xuyang's constant support, the aura within a hundred meters around him was the center of the circle. The feeling of oppression is still too heavy, silently rejecting everyone.

Cen Chu didn't stand for too long.

After about 10 minutes, he took the initiative to speak: "Let's go."

"Okay." Tan Xuyang said.

Cen Chu stood motionless for so long that his whole leg was stiff.

As soon as he lifted his foot at this moment, his whole body seemed to be about to fall forward as if he had lost all strength.

Fortunately, Tan Xuyang was supporting him.

Immediately, he tightened his hand and grabbed the person directly into his arms.

Cen Chu's complexion was a little pale, and he was holding him in his arms and gasping for breath.

This posture attracted a lot of prying eyes from around, Tan Xuyang frowned, and immediately turned across to block their sight.

Then he lowered his head and said in a serious tone: "Go to the medical department first."

"...I'll just sit down and take it easy."

"Go to the medical department." Tan Xuyang insisted without letting go.

At Tan Xuyang's insistence, Cen Chu was forced to go to the medical department.

I don't know whether it is unexpected or reasonable, but the test result is not good.

It got worse again.

However, only the deterioration result can be detected, and the deterioration process cannot be captured.In other words, when Cen Chu was tested, his body was not in the process of deteriorating.

In addition, Cen Chu's body at this time is not too abnormal or uncomfortable. After taking a little medicine and recovering his basic strength, the medical department has no reason to keep Cen Chu, and can only watch him return to the commander-in-chief. department.

Tan Xuyang was very upset about this.

He was worried that Cen Chu was terribly worried, and every time he saw Cen Chu showing a distressed expression, he felt as if he was in pain with empathy, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

He could clearly sense that Cen Chu's state was not right these days, and he could more or less guess that it should have something to do with the captain's exploration of the past two days ago.

But whenever he asked about this matter, the captain shook his head, unwilling to say anything.

The same is true today.

"Thank you for worrying about me so much. But I know it myself." Cen Chu sighed softly, and patted Tan Xuyang's head.

Tan Xuyang stared at him closely.They had already returned to the command room, Yan Huai and He Zhu were nearby, he couldn't make too much noise.He squatted halfway at Cen Chu's feet, and shouted in a low voice in bewilderment: "But your body is deteriorating! Do these things have to be done at this time?"

"Yes, we must do it now." Cen Chu replied softly.

Tan Xuyang pursed his lips, did not speak, just looked up at him, frowning.

Cen Chu's words sounded gentle, but in fact they were undeniable. Tan Xuyang met his eyes, and immediately realized that he could not be persuaded.

Cen Chu leaned in the swivel chair, changed the subject gently, and said, "Okay, if you don't want me to work overtime, call Zhu Chan for me now. The sooner you finish the matter, the earlier you can rest."

Tan Xuyang was so bored, he looked straight into Cen Chu's eyes with the corners of his mouth tensed.

Cen Chu is too assertive, too planned, and too independent.

So much so that whether it was work or life, Tan Xuyang seldom saw him discuss anything with others.His abilities are too broad and comprehensive, and he is always calm and self-reliant. He has the ability to make judgments and decisions alone in almost everything.

He has a leadership temperament that penetrates deep into his bones, powerful, majestic, and unquestionable.

It's as if he can solve all the problems in the world alone, without being tired or tired, and can always maintain complete rationality and calmness like a machine, without pain or discomfort.

But Tan Xuyang knew that he actually would.

He will be tired, tired, painful, and uncomfortable. The captain also has all the emotions that other people have.

But he also knew that the burden on Cen Chu was heavy.

Having the responsibility of a fleet on their shoulders is an extremely exhausting thing, not to mention Cen Chu's responsibility is not limited to them.

He held Cen Chu's hand silently.

Very cold, very soft, no strength at all.

They bear the responsibility that should belong to them.

And himself, in fact, is just one of this group of asylum-seeking people.

"Captain," Tan Xuyang squatted at Cen Chu's feet, raised his head slightly, and asked, "If I stay and join the general headquarters, can you help me share more?"

Cen Chu was startled, then smiled, straightened up with the chair propped up, reached out and touched Tan Xuyang's head again, and said, "You can decide this kind of issue yourself, but there's no need to do it for me."

It's hard to find Zen masters, but the response speed of the instrument panel is very fast.

It didn't take long before this young individual soldier who was elusive came to the general headquarters.

When Cen Chu saw Zhu Chan, he saw that the team member was wearing a dark blue coat and a hood, and the delicate face under the brim was like an animal that exploded into a hedgehog, with nervousness written all over his face.

Yan Huai, who was working on the side of the podium, secretly raised his head and glanced at the strange individual brother who came in. As a result, Zhu Chan, who was sensitive to this sight, immediately stepped sideways to avoid his sight, and Yan Huai was also caught. The other party was so frightened by this excessive reaction that he quickly withdrew his gaze and shrank his head, not daring to look any further.

Tan Xuyang helped Cen Chu to sit on the sofa, then walked forward, and directly pulled the reluctant Zhu Chan to Cen Chu's side and sat down.

"Don't be so nervous, he is our own captain."

Having said that, Zhu Zen still moved to the side uncomfortably.Staring at his toes, he called out in a low voice, "Hello, Commander."

"Just like him, you can continue to call me captain." Cen Chu said.

"...Hello Captain." Zhu Chan said in a low voice.

Cen Chu was very surprised, this team member had already sent him a lot of things through other people's hands, why did he still look so nervous when he came to him?

"Don't worry, I'll ask you something."

Cen Chuwen went straight to the point: "I heard that you grew up on a nearby organic planet?"

When this topic was mentioned suddenly, Zhu Chan looked a little puzzled.

Tan Xuyang didn't expect that Cen Chu called Zhu Chan here to ask about this matter - that was already four or five years ago.

He didn't specifically mention this matter to Cen Chu, and he didn't know where Cen Chu heard about it.But if you think about it carefully, the captain holds the authority of the commander, and it is not too difficult to call up relevant records to check when necessary.

"I have read all the relevant reports at that time, and now I want to confirm the details of the planet with you. Don't be nervous, it doesn't matter if you can't remember clearly, as long as you can remember. Okay? " Cen Chu asked.

Cen Chu usually has a strong sense of oppression in his aura, but when he consciously softens down, the softening effect is also very obvious.

Zhu Chan gradually became less nervous than when he first came.

"...good," he said.

Cen Chu asked very detailed questions. He even took out the dashboard and called up the bird's-eye view of the planet taken by the mission team when they rescued Zhu Chan. He asked very detailed questions about the specific terrain, continents, biodiversity, weather and climate on it .

Coincidentally, Tan Xuyang, Xiao Jianjie and three other temporary teammates set out this mission at that time. After rescuing Zhu Chan, he was taken into his team as a matter of course, so at this moment Tan Xuyang was standing Cen Chu can also intervene a few times behind him.

Zhu Zen never dropped the chain when performing tasks.

At this moment, Cen Chu's question is almost like a task for him. Except for the first two sentences, he is a little nervous, the more he goes, the more he enters the task state, and he tries his best to answer every question in detail. .

Finally, the inquiry is over.

Zhu Chan let out a long breath, with a nervous look on his face again, lowered his head, and the toes of his feet rubbed against each other.

The conversation that lasted for so long was also very mentally exhausting for Cen Chu.

But at this time, apart from being a little tired, Cen Chu didn't show any other discomfort.

"It's alright, thank you for making this trip," Cen Chu smiled at Zhu Chan, and said, "By the way, the things you dragged them to bring to me were all delicious, especially the can of grass candy. Thank you."

Zhu Chan couldn't help being taken aback by this sentence, he had already stood up halfway when he heard Cen Chu say "It's ok", but now he froze in place.

After being frozen for a long time, he pursed his lips and said tentatively in a low voice: "If you like it, I still have it."

Cen Chu smiled gently at him: "Okay, thank you, but I hope to see you come here in person next time. I don't know how to eat people, so don't be so afraid of me."

"...I'm not afraid."

"Well, okay, then remember."

"...Okay, goodbye, Captain."

After Zhu Chan left, Tan Xuyang sat next to Cen Chu.

Cen Chu looked tired, but after Zhu Chan left, he looked at the planet report just called up on the instrument panel seriously.

Tan Xuyang looked a little depressed, he wanted to take Cen Chu to rest, but it was not good to forcefully interrupt at this time.

"Tan Xuyang." Cen Chu called him suddenly.

Tan Xuyang came back to his senses: "Captain, tell me."

Cen Chu coughed twice, and said, "Help me, Fu Ling, Li Rong and all the ministerial-level people fix the time. I will hold a meeting for them in the next two days."

Tan Xuyang conveniently put his coat on Cen Chu's body, and said, "Okay. I told them about the content of the meeting together."

"About the preparations for leaving the space well."

Cen Chu put down the instrument panel and let out a long breath, as if he had finally solved some troublesome problem, he no longer concealed the tired look on his face.

Following Tan Xuyang's strength, he was wrapped into a jacket that was one size bigger, and said: "The plan is basically finalized now, and the action may be a little big at that time. I plan to inform them in advance so that they can be mentally prepared."

"Is it related to the planet you just asked?" Tan Xuyang suddenly asked sharply.

He remembered an incident recorded in the album of the captain of the three ships——

"It's a pity that Ah Cen is too busy, otherwise I would have to drag him down for a walk, who knows when the next time I have the chance to land..."

Tan Xuyang suddenly thought, maybe, he has the hope to take him to make up for this shortcoming?
