Marshal's Cannon Fodder Spouse [Transmigration]

Although the vehicles in the interstellar era travel very fast, this is after all a voyage between planets.It was already two hours after Duan Hengye got out of class and saw the news, and if he was going back to the research institute now, it would take a few hours to arrive.

Although Duan Hengye still doesn't understand why Meng Jinhuai suddenly went to the research institute at this time.But after seeing the message from Su Mingge, even though he is still on the distant Transiting Light temporarily, he can guess just by imagination how nervous the colleagues in the research institute are at this moment.

After class, the students left one after another, and Duan Hengye also returned to his lounge.But today he did not leave the teaching area directly as usual, but took out his optical brain again, and then sent a message to Meng Jinhuai.

...Duan Hengye estimated that it is almost the end of the research institute's off-duty time, and it can be guessed that as long as the Marshal is still there, no one will dare to leave before him.So, as the dean, Duan Hengye was rare and considerate to relieve the staff - he told Meng Jinhuai in the message that he could go to his residence in the living area of ​​the research institute to rest first.

Just as Duan Hengye estimated just now, the hemisphere where the Yetian Imperial Mecha Research Institute is located is at sunset.Logically speaking, at this point, many researchers who have finished their work should also leave.But today until now, the tense working atmosphere in the entire courtyard has not dissipated.

Although there was no advance notice when he came, the news of Meng Jinhuai's arrival at the research institute spread throughout the institute immediately.

It was not the first time Meng Jinhuai had come to the institute, but it could be seen that he still hadn't lost interest in it.During the stop and go, Meng Jinhuai asked many questions to the staff accompanying the visit.As an imperial marshal with countless military achievements, Meng Jinhuai's understanding of mechas is far better than that of ordinary researchers.Soon everyone realized that every question Meng Jinhuai asked was not casually mentioned, but rather in-depth and thought about in advance.

For a moment, everyone became nervous, afraid that Meng Jinhuai would suddenly come to him and ask some difficult questions.

Although Su Mingge, the deputy dean, was only accompanying him on the tour, he couldn't help becoming nervous along with everyone after hearing Meng Jinhuai's various questions.

In the blink of an eye, the daytime working hours of the institute were over.But judging by Meng Jinhuai's appearance, he still has no intention of leaving.But just as Meng Jinhuai walked to the optical screen system area of ​​the research institute, the sharp-eyed Su Mingge suddenly saw that the optical brain next to Meng Jinhuai lit up.

Don't even think about it, as the marshal of the empire, Meng Jinhuai will definitely receive countless messages on his brain at all times.If he had set the message reminder mode to the normal state like ordinary people, he would have been annoyed by the notification sound.Su Mingge remembered that Meng Jinhuai's brain had never flashed once in the past few hours, and then guessed that the other party should have set the emergency message reminder mode.

So after seeing Meng Jinhuai's optical brain light up now, Su Mingge couldn't help feeling a little nervous.Whether the staff can get off work on time is a minor matter, but the safety of the empire is the major issue.Like Su Mingge, Meng Jinhuai also saw his own light brain that suddenly lit up.Then he stopped, took the silver-white circular light brain in his hand, and opened the message just now.

Now not only Su Mingge was following Meng Jinhuai, but also several other main persons in charge of the research institute. After seeing the prompt from Marshal's optical brain, everyone became nervous.

Following Meng Jinhuai's movements, everyone's attention was focused on his hands.But after a few seconds, people discovered that... the terrifying scene in their imagination did not happen.

After turning on the optical brain, Meng Jinhuai not only did not show any solemn expression, but even smiled slightly towards the things in his hands.

So what did the Marshal see?

Meng Jinhuai turned off the optical brain, then turned around in a good mood and smiled at the staff who had been following him, and said, "Okay, thank you for today's explanation."

Hearing Meng Jinhuai's words, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Just when Su Mingge was about to ask Meng Jinhuai if he would arrange dinner for him now, he heard Meng Jinhuai say to the military staff who had been following him, "Go to the residential area SIU-7."

"Okay, Marshal." Wen Yan said that the staff member who was wearing a black military uniform and did not speak the whole time nodded his head, then picked up the optical brain and began to deploy the levitation vehicle.

After hearing what Meng Jinhuai said, Su Mingge stood there and reacted.Then he remembered that the "SIU-7 area" Meng Jinhuai said was the coordinates of Duan Hengye's residence on this planet.

Well, who sent the message just now finally has an answer.

……

Usually, after finishing the afternoon class at An Luo University, Duan Hengye would always stay directly on the Star Crossing for one night, and wait until the next morning to go back.However, due to the fact that Meng Jinhuai was in the research institute today, Duan Hengye boarded the starship for the return journey directly after the class was rare.

At the same time, Meng Jinhuai also stepped into Duan Hengye's home in the research institute.Although Meng Jinhuai had been here several times before, he had never really looked at this place before.

Duan Hengye's residence was a three-story villa. When Meng Jinhuai first entered, the word "warm" came to mind.At first glance, the style here seems to be a little different from Duan Hengye himself, but after a long time, you will feel that Duan Hengye should belong to this kind of world.

It was also the first time when Meng Jinhuai came here, he found a black upright grand piano in the corner of the first floor of the villa.Although no one has used this piano for a long time, there is still no dust on the piano because of the regular cleaning of the robot.

At this time, the setting sun slanted from outside the window, and it just coated the black-fronted piano with a layer of honey-colored gold, like chocolate that has been syruped.

Meng Jinhuai paused for a moment after entering the door, then walked towards the piano that no one had touched for a long time.

The starship that Duan Hengye was on was huge, and it flew extremely smoothly.So although the journey back is a bit long, people will not be too tired along the way.Although the speed of the starship has been increased, when Duan Hengye returned to the research institute, it was already night there.

As soon as he walked to our door, Duan Hengye found that the lights on the first floor of his residence were still on.But before Professor Duan could come up with something, the recognition device at the door automatically sensed the return of the owner, and then slowly opened the door of the villa.

A burst of smooth music flowed out from the room.The sound insulation effect of this house is really good, Duan Hengye was stunned by the sudden sound after the door was opened.But then he saw a familiar figure sitting beside the piano not far away.

Of course Meng Jinhuai also heard the sound of the door opening, but his subordinates still did not stop playing.Duan Hengye walked slowly towards the piano. To be honest, although the piano is very large, but because it has been placed there quietly, Duan Hengye almost forgot that there is such a piano in his home. a musical instrument.

But the most important thing is that Duan Hengye had never heard of Meng Jinhuai playing the piano before.

Because Shang Mengzhen, the heroine of "Dumping Interstellar", is mainly active in the entertainment industry, the story of playing the piano is naturally indispensable in the book.Also for the sake of saving trouble, the author directly released the famous classical songs from the Earth Age into this world.

So even though the world has changed, Duan Hengye is still very familiar with the piano music played by Meng Jinhuai at that time.He walked up to Meng Jinhuai's side, then gently put his hands on the side of the piano, and quietly enjoyed the other party's playing.

The window behind Meng Jinhuai was not closed, the light gray gauze curtain by the window was lifted slightly by the evening wind, and the foot of the curtain touched the side of the piano.The current Meng Jinhuai didn't have any killing spirit brought from the battlefield, on the contrary, he was elegant to the extreme.

Although he couldn't remember the name, Duan Hengye could tell that what Meng Jinhuai was playing was a ballad.But in this style of music that has nothing to do with the word "passionate", Duan Hengye's heartbeat began to speed up bit by bit.The hand he was still holding on to the piano just now also unconsciously moved to his chest, and the sound came to Duan Hengye's ears along the flesh and bones - he thought that his heartbeat might have disrupted this moment. The rhythm of a lyric song.

After an unknown amount of time, Meng Jinhuai finally stopped playing.As the only audience of this young and elegant pianist at this time, Duan Hengye couldn't help clapping his hands as Meng Jinhuai dropped the keys.

As a child of an aristocratic family, Duan Hengye, like most people, learned this musical instrument when he was young.But it's a pity that Duan Hengye didn't like the boring activity of "playing", so he stopped learning it for a long time.But today, after hearing the music played by Meng Jinhuai, Duan Hengye felt its beauty for the first time.

Seeing Duan Hengye applauding gently there, Meng Jinhuai also smiled at him, then stood up and closed the piano cover.Seeing this, Duan Hengye couldn't help showing a disappointed expression.

"I'll play it for you next time." When Meng Jinhuai smiled, his eyes narrowed unconsciously, his usual seriousness was completely gone.

Duan Hengye nodded, then couldn't help but glanced at the piano and said, "If it weren't for you, it would be a waste for me to have this piano here." There was some regret in his words.

Hearing this, Meng Jinhuai shook his head and did not speak.Perhaps it was because of sitting here for a long time, after Duan Hengye came, Meng Jinhuai walked to the dining table on one side, took a sip of water and said: "I was in a hurry a few times before, and I wanted to take a good look at Ah Heng's childhood life today. But thinking of you not being there, I still didn’t run around in the end.” After speaking, Meng Jinhuai slightly raised an eyebrow at Duan Hengye, as if he was about to get his compliment.

Duan Hengye thought about the time when Su Mingge sent him the message, and then realized that Meng Jinhuai must have been sitting here for several hours.He turned around and took a look at his still deserted kitchen, then couldn't help frowning and asked Meng Jinhuai, "Have you not had dinner yet?"

Meng Jinhuai shook his head, then added as if he saw what Duan Hengye was going to do: "I ate lunch late."

Duan Hengye ignored Meng Jinhuai's subsequent supplement, and after hearing the previous sentence, he went straight to the kitchen.Perhaps because he was afraid that Meng Jinhuai would stop him, Duan Hengye walked there and said, "It's just right, I didn't eat either."

Duan Hengye, who didn't look back while speaking, didn't know that the way Meng Jinhuai looked at him at this time was indescribably gentle.

"Okay." Meng Jinhuai replied after a while.

Today's dinner started late and was very simple.But in Meng Jinhuai's eyes, Jane's dinner and the house where Duan Hengye lived since he was a child are extra warm.He thought, maybe "home" should be like this.

……

Meng Jinhuai is the marshal of the empire. Although the empire has been relatively peaceful recently, he did not come back to the research institute to hang out, but to do business.

In the early morning of the second day, Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai rode the levitator to a corner of the planet where the research institute was located that had not been visited for a long time.

"Arrival, coordinates: KN-0, now confirm the authority."

After coming here, the levitator suddenly stopped in mid-air without warning.After hearing the coordinates reported by the synthesized electronic sound, Duan Hengye hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand and gently stuck it on the light screen on one side of the levitator.

"Permission confirmation started:

Duan Hengye, Dean of Yetian Empire Mecha Research Institute, confirmed.Permissions are enabled. "

After the sound fell, the inside of the levitator lightly "dripped" again.Immediately afterwards, the hovercraft, which had been suspended in the air for a while, drove forward again.Gradually, the scene ahead became clearer.

70.00% of the planet where the institute is located is covered by buildings.Other places are all artificially planned green belts.This planet is very standard. It looks like a fully developed interstellar age planet, exquisite and beautiful everywhere.

But now, the place in front of Duan Hengye has a completely different painting style from other places on this planet.

If I could sum it up in two words, it would be: "Desolation" and "Decadence".

If you lower your head slightly, you can see that the land under your feet is rarely covered by any green plants, but is completely scorched black.If you try your best to observe, you can see in the scorched black, there are some faint silver lights there.

From the moment the levitator slowly entered this area, Duan Hengye kept looking down.Seeing this, Meng Jinhuai, who was standing next to him, couldn't help casting a worried look over, "Heng, how is your condition now?"

In fact, when Duan Hengye looked down just now, his mind was completely blank.Until now when Meng Jinhuai opened his mouth, his spirit was finally pulled back.Duan Hengye pursed his lips, then shook his head and said to Meng Jinhuai: "...No, I can't remember anything." When Duan Hengye said this, his voice was a little low, and his expression was also rare and confused.

"The levitator is about to land." Seeing that Duan Hengye's condition is not bad, Meng Jinhuai glanced at his feet, and then said to him.

Not long after Meng Jinhuai's voice fell, the levitator landed on the scorched land in front of him.With the opening of the silver hatch, Duan Hengye took a deep breath, and finally walked out ahead of Meng Jinhuai.

Perhaps for Duan Hengye, this place is a place that should be familiar and can no longer be familiar with.

——The dean's office, which was once independent from the main building of the research institute, was the place where Duan Hengye lived as a child.

Because after the accident happened in the experiment, Duan Hengye was taken away by the royal family.So it wasn't until Duan Hengye started to re-investigate the incident a few days ago that Duan Hengye discovered that the place where the accident happened was not buried, but remained there as it was.

Although I don't know why the investigation team made such a decision back then, I have to say that this piece of ruins that remains in its original state is indeed a clue that cannot be missed.

As soon as Duan Hengye stepped out of the levitator, he heard a strange "click" sound from under his feet.The surrounding area is too quiet now, so the sound of footsteps is also particularly obvious.Although Duan Hengye's psychological quality has always been very good, he couldn't help trembling when he suddenly heard the sound coming from under his feet.At this moment, Meng Jinhuai, who was standing behind Duan Hengye, supported his shoulders, and said in his ear: "It's okay, it's a branch."

After hearing Meng Jinhuai's words, Duan Hengye squatted down slowly, and then picked up the dark object under his feet that could no longer be seen from its original shape.Just like what Meng Jinhuai said, this is what a tree looks like when it is strafed by a special optical weapon.Although he understood the reason for its formation, Duan Hengye was no better than Meng Jinhuai - the opponent was a marshal who was used to seeing the messy planet after the war, so naturally he didn't recognize it at the first time.

After confirming what it was, Duan Hengye gently put it back on the ground.He looked around, and then said to Meng Jinhuai, "The destroyed area here is larger than I imagined."

"En." Meng Jinhuai nodded, and then said to Duan Hengye while recalling, "The mecha lost control too suddenly, and at the time of the incident, many people didn't know whether it was deliberate or not. The experiment. So it was not until ten minutes later that the garrison from the research institute drove other mechas to control the scene."

This office is far away from the research institute building, and there is an open space around it. The previous dean often used this open space to do some small experiments.Therefore, although the research institute detected the energy anomaly here at the first time, it was unable to respond quickly because it had been hesitating whether it was an experiment or not.

What Meng Jinhuai said just now was also written in the accident investigation report released to the public, and it has always been regarded as the biggest cause of the death of the former dean.

Probably because of the loss of this part of memory, Duan Hengye felt calmer than he imagined after returning here.The two of them walked to the depths of the ruins while recalling the experiment report.

Finally, after a few minutes, Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai stopped in front of a silver broken metal pillar.During the investigation that year, the staff in charge of the investigation left a little mark here, and when Duan Hengye approached, he saw the words "Metal Column No. 7 of the Laboratory".

Before coming here, Duan Hengye had studied the structure diagram of the original laboratory.So after seeing this pillar, he realized that he and Meng Jinhuai had already reached the indoor part of this office - even though nothing could be seen from the scorched black.

More than ten years have passed, but I don't know if it's an illusion, as soon as Duan Hengye came here, there seemed to be a lingering weird burnt smell on the tip of Duan Hengye's nose.

He glanced at Meng Jinhuai, and after noticing the other's expression, he confirmed that the smell was not his illusion.

For a moment, Duan Hengye felt that the atmosphere around him became a little weird.He glanced at Meng Jinhuai again, and said, "This taste is not right."

Neither the investigation report released to the public nor the report that existed on the royal family's internal network made any mention of this smell.Duan Hengye believed that this obviously weird smell would not be missed by the investigators.

Just when he thought of this, Meng Jinhuai also said in a tacit understanding: "This smell is not right, find out where the source is."

"En." Duan Hengye nodded towards Meng Jinhuai, and then the two separated and walked in two directions of the ruins.Now that it has reached the indoor range, because the internal melted structures have different materials, the wreckage left now is also different. When Duan Hengye walks, he feels a deep foot and a shallow foot.Fortunately, he has some ancient martial arts skills, so he didn't trip over the things under his feet.

Slowly, the distance between Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai became farther and farther.Just when he was about to walk out of the indoor ruins, Duan Hengye suddenly saw a special piece of metal shining with dark blue light in front of him.

He squatted down slowly, then hesitated and tore off a piece of the hem of his shirt.Then Duan Hengye hesitated, and slowly picked up the dark blue metal.Just as Duan Hengye squatted down to pick up something, Meng Jinhuai also walked towards him.

Finally, Duan Hengye slowly stood up holding the things in his hands.At this time, Meng Jinhuai also came to his side.

"This is..." Meng Jinhuai murmured looking at the thing in Duan Hengye's hand.

Although Meng Jinhuai didn't say it clearly, Duan Hengye still nodded his head lightly, then he turned to Meng Jinhuai and said, "That's right, that's it." If someone else was talking about it, they might ignore this unremarkable dark blue metal, But the people who came here today are Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai.

Both of them knew that the object in Heng Ye's hands at this time was some kind of solidified fuel oil—it was usually used in a large-scale destructive weapon that had not yet been assembled into the mecha.
