Phoenix Feather Dedicated to the Admiral

"Pfft."

"Pfft."

With the sound of falling into the water twice, something heavy was thrown directly into the hot molten iron.

Qin Yueming stood by the furnace, watching the thrown things slowly turn into ashes.

He silently lit a cigarette, turned and walked outside the house.

Suddenly, the communicator rang.

Qin Yueming raised his hand and took a look, it was an unfamiliar position.After hesitating for a moment, he still picked up the communication.

"Hi." He greeted politely.

A chuckle came from the other end.

As soon as Qin Yueming heard the laughter, his face collapsed: "It's our leader, why do you use such a strange location number?"

"It seems that President Qin is in a bad mood and doesn't want to talk to me." Lan Xiyu said.

Qin Yueming rubbed his forehead, a little irritated: "Don't mention it, last time you found something for me, Ah Wen is still worried about it. Please explain it to me quickly."

"Are you in the Star Federation now?" Lan Xiyu didn't follow his words, but asked a question.

"Yes, I just returned to the main planet yesterday." Qin Yueming exhaled smoke, "How is your side, Qi Mo didn't reveal anything, did he?"

As soon as he said this, there was no sound on the other side of the communication.

Qin Yueming faintly sensed something was wrong: "Lan Xiyu?"

Finally, someone on the other side responded, but it was a different person: "Boss Qin is talking about... What are you revealing?"

Qin Yueming almost dropped the communicator on the ground - it was Qi Mo's voice.

Shocked in his heart, he almost scolded Lan Xiyu a hundred times, and had to smile along with him: "Haha, so it's Brother Qi, are you two together?"

After speaking, he felt wrong again, how could Lan Xiyu call him in front of Qi Mo, this is too strange!Moreover, did he call Lan Xiyu "Master Chief" just now?

There was a chill behind his back, and Qin Yueming broke into a cold sweat.

It's over, this time it's really a joke.

"Boss Qin, you don't need to go back any further. I called you to remind you." Lan Xiyu said in a calm voice, "I have already become the general's prisoner, and I have explained everything I can. If you still Run quickly on the main star, or wait for Qi Mo to go back..."

Qin Yueming couldn't help scolding: "You bastard, do you still bring your teammates for sale?"

"Strive for good performance and a reduced sentence." Lan Xiyu said calmly.

Qin Yueming pursed her lips, rubbed her nose, and sighed, "Brother Qi, let me explain to you...I..."

"beep--"

Communication is cut off.

Qin Yueming stared blankly at the communicator, grinning and biting his back molars.

"Hello, Lan Xiyu."

……

On the ship, Lan Xiyu cut off the communication, turned to look at Qi Mo.

Qi Mo sat in the control room and looked at the distant planet expressionlessly, without making any comments on Lan Xiyu's behavior of hanging up the communication.

"Qin Yueming and I are old acquaintances, and I really asked him to approach you." Lan Xiyu said, "A businessman values ​​profits, and he is smooth. Many times, I don't fully understand how many resources he has in his hands."

"There's no need to explain to him." Qi Mo lowered his eyes, "I should have beaten him up last time I met him."

After several days of sailing, they were basically approaching the edge of the Interstellar Federation, and many edge stars in each division could be seen on the star map of the ship.

Lan Xiyu looked at the star map, took a few steps forward and sat down beside Qi Mo.Qi Mo put electronic shackles on his wrists, so he couldn't make too much movement.

Lan Xiyu said in a negotiating tone: "When we pass by Area A in a while, let's go around edge stars 1-4."

Qi Mo looked sideways: "What's wrong?"

"There are people I don't want to see." Lan Xiyu said concisely.

Qi Mo pondered for a moment - the vicinity of Area A is the jurisdiction of the Gatusson family. Now that I think about it, Lan Xiyu probably doesn't want to see anything linked to Gatusson.He paused suddenly.

By the way, he has seen related information about Fei Ye's leader, Ye Huang.Yehuang did have an adoptive father, but...after the adoptive father died, Yehuang was tried in court and convicted of "father killing".Yehuang refused to obey the verdict and set fire to the trial court.

He remembered again that he once asked Lan Xiyu if he hated the Star Federation.And Lan Xiyu's answer at that time was - "Yes".

Everything seems to fit together.

"You once set fire to the courtroom, didn't you?" Qi Mo asked.

Lan Xiyu was startled for a moment, then nodded, and moved closer to Qi Mo: "I'll tell you."

Just as Qi Mo was about to nod, he suddenly remembered that he couldn't be so responsive to Lan Xiyu, so he immediately restrained his expression and glanced away: "No, I don't want to waste my brain."

Lan Xiyu lowered her eyes, stretched out her finger and pulled Qi Mo's little finger.Because he made unnecessary movements, the electronic shackles sounded the alarm and contracted at the same time.There were red marks on her wrist, but Lan Xiyu didn't stop moving.

Qi Mo pursed his lips.He held Lan Xiyu's hand instead, successfully preventing the shackles from shrinking further.

He frowned and said: "If you want to say it, hurry up, it will be too late to change the course."

"I should have told you that my adoptive father is a high-ranking person on his planet, so the years I followed him were very comfortable. Whether it is the brothers of my adoptive father or the people who usually follow him, they are all right. I'm fine, at least on the surface." Lan Xiyu said, "At that time, at least I still felt that there was hope in life."

Qi Mo's eyes fell on the red mark on Lan Xiyu's wrist.

"But later, those brothers of his coveted his property, and bullied me when I was young and had no foundation. So they planned to kill my adoptive father, and unfortunately I ran into it..." Lan Xiyu's tone fell, "I was killed They put it out as the murderer. At that time, I hadn’t awakened the ether and talent, and it was difficult to resist them, so I was tied to the trial court.”

"I fought hard in court, and it happened that I knew several clerks and jurors in court, and they were also friends of my adoptive father, and they even knew me very well, and knew who I was. But... in that One day they were strange and far away, and they didn't listen to my excuses."

"The jury thinks I'm guilty, and the judge thinks I'm guilty too. I'm about to be pressed to death in the courtroom, and I have no power to resist." Lan Xiyu smiled, "Probably because I was too angry, so I used the power of the awakened phoenix to push me to death." That dirty place was burned to the ground.”

Lan Xiyu paused for a moment: "Isn't it too cruel to kill so many people?"

Qi Mo spit out two words: "It's okay." Then he changed the route by the way.

"I was kicked out of my biological father's family because I didn't have strong ether and talent. If it wasn't for them not accepting me, or even killing me as a disgrace to the family, I wouldn't be so heartless later on. After the court came out, I had already decided to leave the Star Federation. So I went to Gatusson on the way to clean up that family."

Lan Xiyu spoke lightly, but Qi Mo frowned.

"Qi Mo, you were later adopted by the great president. You have never seen so many things that were oppressed by power, and you had to succumb because you were weak. The federation has been terrible from the inside to the outside, and it has become a reality to draw conclusions based on ether and talent. As it should be."

Lan Xiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "How can this be taken for granted?"

Qi Mo lowered his eyes halfway: "So, you created Fei Ye and decided to transform the world? I don't think this method is correct. Do you know how many soldiers we lost in the battle with Fei Ye? There are also many border stars People were displaced."

"Your method is too gentle, which is why I have been preventing you from going back. You know you want to change, but you can't be ruthless. You will only become a target for others." Lan Xiyu said softly, "The subversion from the bottom to the top must With the determination to break the boat, there must be something wrong with the top leadership of the Federation, and it will not work without strong means."

Qi Mo pursed his lips.

"Actually, Fei Ye wasn't the organization I created, and I wasn't its first leader. But this matter is more complicated, and it also involves me finding Starstone to make a time machine...Forget it, let's talk about it now." I can't listen... I'll tell you from the beginning when I have time." Lan Xiyu sighed.

"I'm not very interested in how the rebel army was established, anyway, it will be cleaned up in the end." Qi Mo looked down at Lan Xiyu's hands wearing electronic shackles, "You know that I can't really put you in prison Here, why do you want to wear this thing?"

"To reassure you." Lan Xiyu said.

Qi Mo thought to himself, the restrictions of the soul contract are already overbearing enough, it is impossible for him to hurt the person in front of him, in fact, Lan Xiyu's worries are completely unnecessary.But due to self-esteem, he didn't say it.

The ship bypassed area A and entered the area of ​​the Interstellar Federation. So far, their interstellar voyage should be considered basically safe.

In the middle of the night, Qi Mo lay down on the bed after washing, broke open a tube of nutrient solution and poured it into his mouth.

After a while, Lan Xiyu walked in with wet hair and stood still in front of the table.Water droplets dripped down along the light blond hair, and wet the front of the clothes.

Qi Mo turned his head to avoid his sight, but Lan Xiyu called him, "Mo Mo."

Qi Mo had no choice but to respond: "Huh?"

Lan Xiyu pointed to her hair: "Dry it for me."

Qi Mo licked his lower lip—there was obviously a shampoo and dryer in the bathroom, but Lan Xiyu came over to let him do it on purpose.

But what can he do?

Qi Mo sat up and waved to Lan Xiyu: "Sit down."

Lan Xiyu walked over and sat by the bed, took out a long bath towel and handed it to Qi Mo.

Qi Mo took the bath towel and spread it on Lan Xiyu's head, gently absorbing the water.

Lan Xiyu raised her eyes to look at the table, only to see that Snow Pompom had woken up and was looking at him quietly with her small black eyes open.

Lan Xiyu reached out to touch it, but the snow pompom didn't pounce on it as intimately as before, but carefully moved away to keep a distance.

Lan Xiyu's fingers froze in the air.

Qi Mo saw all this in his eyes, and put a little more effort into his hands. "You scared it, the little guy won't be able to recover for a while." Qi Mo said softly.

Lan Xiyu was silent, turned her hand and supported Qi Mo's thigh.

"Will you hide too?" Lan Xiyu asked.

Qi Mo didn't answer, and the silent air seemed to be saying—"What you are asking is nonsense."

Lan Xiyu turned to look at Qi Mo with a bath towel on her head, her emerald eyes flashed.Qi Mo's heart was in a daze, and his eyes drooped slightly—it's too bad, Lan Xiyu really looks like a spoiled bride just out of the bath in her lover's arms.

How can this person see this well.

He inhaled lightly, stepped back a little involuntarily, and was immediately held by Lan Xiyu's hand.

"Qi Mo." Lan Xiyu lowered her voice, "Don't avoid me."

Qi Mo frowned.

He didn't understand why Lan Xiyu was so insecure.

If he had used the soul contract for someone, he would not have worried that the other party might run away at all.

Besides, didn't Lan Xiyu let him stay in bed all the time?He is already a vassal of the person in front of him, even though he doesn't want to admit it.

Therefore, Lan Xiyu still has nothing to be dissatisfied with.

Maybe it was because he was silent for too long, Lan Xiyu threw off the towel on his head, and leaned over to hold his hand tightly.The electronic shackles started to ring again, this time because Lan Xiyu used too much force, the edge directly cut Lan Xiyu's wrist.

Qi Mo let out a "hiss", and pressed a button on the bracelet, which directly lifted Lan Xiyu's shackles.

He looked at Lan Xiyu with a complicated expression: "I'm already here, so you can do whatever you want with me. What are you afraid of?"

Lan Xiyu rubbed her wrists, followed Qi Mo's posture and leaned towards him, wrapping her arms around his neck.

Aware of the ambiguous emotions spreading, Qi Mo stretched out his hand to rub his lips, and turned his head slightly: "You...can I rest for a night?"

Although it was the contractor's request, Shengge every night was still a bit reluctant.

"Is this a discussion, or a request?" Lan Xiyu asked.

Qi Mo swept his upper teeth and squeezed out two words: "Discuss."

Lan Xiyu smiled: "If we discuss it, we can't."

Qi Mo glanced at Lan Xiyu.

"Unless you beg me, I'm not happy." Lan Xiyu caressed his cheek, "What did I do that dissatisfied you? Did I not serve you wholeheartedly?"

Qi Mo's face changed slightly, and suddenly he heard Lan Xiyu change his words: "I'm just kidding."

His cheek was gently kissed, and Lan Xiyu's voice came from his ear: "Go to sleep."

For the first time in the past few days, Qi Mo felt physically and mentally relaxed.

He breathed a sigh of relief slowly, lying flat on the bed and half-opening his eyes to the ceiling.

"Qi Mo." Lan Xiyu called him from beside him.

"Ok?"

"Can I live with you when I go back?"

When it came to returning to the main star, Qi Mo calmed down a lot.

"You can just give an order for this kind of thing, and I have no way to disagree." Qi Mo's tone was light.

"It's not an order." Lan Xiyu walked sideways around Qi Mo's waist and clasped his hand, "You don't have to agree."

Qi Mo's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he slowly closed his eyes.
