Gavin couldn't remember how long it had been since he had seen anyone.

Except for Chang Sijian, who is not considered a human being.

He brushed the dirt off his clothes and crawled out from the bottom of the pit.After looking far and wide, one thing was confirmed—he finally came out of the deserted star.

After hundreds of attempts, Chang Sijian finally got it right this time.

After finding out that he had come out, Gavin's first reaction was to take out his mobile phone and prepare to send a message to New Year's Eve.

It wasn't until he belatedly remembered that the phone was out of battery, that he put it back in embarrassment.

The happiness came a bit suddenly. Gavin was dizzy for a moment because of the sequelae of teleportation, and then began to look around.

In front of him, there were a bunch of skinny people sitting and lying in a mess, with sores on the exposed skin, and almost only eyes that turned around on the skinny face with big palms.

At this moment, the pair of eyes were looking at him with vigilance and fear.

A child suddenly sobbed, and her mother covered her mouth in a panic, afraid of attracting Gavin's attention.

Gavin's body was not strong, and he was completely slender among a group of muscular brothers in school, but in the eyes of these weak and weak refugees who had nothing to eat, he was already an existence that could not be offended.

Not to mention that he was carrying a sword in his hand that looked even more irresistible.

Not far away was the snoring sound of wild dogs eating. Gavin looked back and found that the red-eyed wild dogs were gnawing on the hungry corpses that had long since lost their breath.And the people around turned a blind eye to this, and no one even had the energy to drive these strong beasts away.

People can't be bothered to eat people, let alone dogs cannibalize people.

The three wild dogs were as big as jackals, and while greedily biting their prey, they watched Gavin who suddenly appeared vigilantly.

Judging from their trembling legs, the wild dogs were also afraid.But he was reluctant to part with the hard-to-get food.

Animals that have eaten human flesh will henceforth treat humans as prey.

There was almost no need for Gavin to do anything, Chang Sijian flashed red, and the warm blood spurted into a line and spilled on the ground.

The wild dog didn't even howl, and died instantly.

Gavin turned his head and glanced around at these people.Then he walked to the person closest to him and asked, "How many years is the Xingyun calendar now? What's the date?"

The woman was silent for a long time, staring at Chang Sijian in his hand, and finally her lips moved slightly, and she replied hoarsely: "1419...Maybe it was July, maybe it was August...I can't remember."

The accents of the people here are very strong, Gavin analyzed for a long time before he could understand what she was saying.

"Where is this place then?"

"Eighteen galaxies... Lite Star, District Ninth, isolated area on the outskirts of Guanxin City. Master."

It was good to learn so much information from her.

Gavin asked the direction of the city, turned and left.

There was no one around, Chang Sijian showed his figure and followed beside him.

"Why didn't you save her? She still has a child with her. Her vital signs are very weak. If she is not rescued, she will die."

Gavin didn't answer him right away.

So Chang Sijian was a little annoyed, and raised his voice: "Gavin!"

Gavin stopped in his tracks.

"I can save a moment, but not a lifetime. As you said, she still has a child. Do you want to make a bet with me? I can give her food and water, but after I leave, within half an hour at the latest, Both mother and child will die."

He turned his head sideways, looked at Chang Sijian, and said expressionlessly:

"You are a sword spirit, you don't know what it's like to be hungry. It's terrible when people are about to starve to death.

They will come up like locusts, just to eat one bite, and then snatch everything in sight.

They dare not do anything to me, because I am much stronger than them.But a little woman, how do you let her defend herself?

She will die sooner then, is that what you want to see? "

Chang Sijian's face was stunned for a moment.

His mood was visibly depressed, and he looked sleepy.

The noon sun was very poisonous, the countryside was remote, and there were no vehicles on the road, only these two pedestrians were left, rushing to the city in an orderly manner.

"Besides," Gavin said suddenly in the middle, "It's too inefficient to rescue them one by one..."

Obviously, this group of people is sick.

The illness has deprived them of their workforce and therefore their source of income.Without a source of income, there is no food to eat, let alone treatment for diseases.The sicker it gets.So it's a perfect famine closed loop.

Gavin's purpose was to go to the city to buy a ticket, inquire about news by the way, return to the Deep Blue Military Academy early to tell everyone that he is not dead, and then go to see him on New Year's Eve.

How the people here are doing is something that the local consul or the superior consul need to worry about.has no relations with him.

To put it bluntly, does he see few dead people?

Some people drink and eat in the woods, and some people starve to death in the village.Fate is not very fair.

Hungry for thousands of miles.

There is always a difference between seeing these four words with your own eyes and seeing these four words from a book.

"If only I hadn't received higher education in my previous life..."

Gavin put his hand on the sword at his waist and sighed to himself.

"I don't understand politics. I often think about it. In my country..." Gavin paused and changed his words, "In the place where I lived before, no matter how corrupt and incompetent the local officials were, they would not dare to let their own people live like this Why is the epidemic so severe that no one comes forward to maintain law and order? There are no medical staff in the quarantine area. How is this different from letting people wait to die?

Also, there was a war in the place where I temporarily lived, and the first reaction of the local consul was to open the isolation cover... After I left there, I checked the information during that period, and there were no more than three reports on this in the Imperial Daily Lines of characters, two of which revolve around a passing marshal..."

"I don't mean to look down on the imperial power, it's just that under the rule of the imperial power, this country is like this. Then such an emperor must have failed too much." Gavin said in a low voice.

"I have seen the ancestor emperor who founded the country." Chang Sijian's eyes suddenly drifted, and his thoughts drifted back to many years ago. It’s good to concentrate resources to fight against foreign races. The empire has only one galaxy, and the whole country is extremely united... Now that it has become like this, the emperor must be very disappointed."

It has only been a thousand years since the founding of the country, and the empire is already so bloated and huge.

Chang Sijian murmured softly in a voice that Gavin could hardly hear: "All gods of light have selfish desires, let alone human beings."

Gavin originally thought that the people at the bottom here are suffering like this, and the top will not be so rich.

Unexpectedly, the urban area of ​​Guanxin City and the isolation area in the suburbs are completely different styles of painting.

The main urban area looks no different from other cities, but because of the epidemic, there is an extra checkpoint at the entrance.

When you look up, you can even see a colorful hydrogen balloon yacht shuttling in the sky. On the huge hull, fluorescent lights form a few large characters: "The birthplace of Internet celebrity Xiaolongren/Welcome to Xiaolongren Wholesale Market".

Ridiculous to the extreme.

Near the entrance of the main city, a group of ragged people were lining up. Gavin took a look and found that the innermost people were surrounded by layers and couldn't see clearly.On the other hand, there are only a few people at the city entry toll office.

Gavin found it very strange, so he planned to take a closer look.

In the end, before he could take a few steps, a boy who was as tall as his shoulders grabbed his clothes.

The sun-tanned young man mustered up his courage and said, "Miss Gao Li said to line up first! Otherwise, I won't be able to receive supplies!"

Immediately there was a echoing voice from around: "Yes, go in line." "We can't let him trouble Miss Gao Li..."

Miss Gao Li, who delivered the supplies, had been made things difficult by the masters in the city before.

Gavin's painting style is obviously different from that of the refugees around him, and it's no wonder that the young man thinks that he is in the same group as those before.

what……?

Goryeo?Hearing this name all of a sudden, Gavin thought of the frightened female nurse with a gun in the seventeen galaxy back then.

Same name?

Speaking of which, he remembered that Gao Li married to the Twelve Galaxy to become the wife of the district chief...

With such doubts, Gavin followed behind and lined up.

He didn't want to receive relief supplies, he just wanted to take a look.

The team moved neither fast nor slow, many people turned their heads and glared at him angrily.

Gavin thought for a while, probably everyone thought he was not like a refugee... Shameless came over to eat and drink.

As the team moved, Gavin finally saw clearly the appearance of the innermost person.

It's really Gorye.

Her short ear-length hair had grown a lot back then, and it was pulled into a ball and pinned behind her head.

What Gavin noticed was that her arm was tied with a white gauze... It seemed that a relative had passed away.

Having only been married for two years, Gao Li looks much older.

... Was it her husband who treated her badly?

The materials distributed by Goryeo were very simple. A bundle of dry bread and a bottle of mineral water were tied together with tape.There is only one old woman working with her here, and she seems to be in a hurry.

Finally it was Gavin.Gao Li didn't raise her head, and passed the things over, her voice was gentle and low: "Next."

Gavin didn't take it, and said, "Miss Gao Li, why are you here?"

Gao Li suddenly raised her head and looked at the face of the person coming.

Then his eyes widened in disbelief: "—Gavin? You, are you still alive?"

Last year, the imperial media reported Gavin's news overwhelmingly, at least one month after another.There are also a lot of "Gavin's classmate", "Gavin's neighbor back then", "Gavin's first girlfriend" blabla...etc.

Gao Li was shocked and sad for a long time when she saw it.Later, there was an unexpected change in the family...Gao Li had no time to think about such a person.

Unexpectedly, the person who was stamped dead came back to life and stood in front of his eyes perfectly?

She glanced at the team behind her, and waved to Gavin: "Hey, I'll talk about the rest later, help me share things, my arms are going to die of exhaustion."

So Gavin became such a temporary white worker, honorably serving as a dispatcher.

Miss Gao Li sat on the bench and started fanning herself, asking questions one after another.

"What's the matter with you? Didn't everyone say you were dead?"

Gavin replied: "No, I was trapped in the competition field. I just found a way to get out today. I just teleported here. But you, how did you get here?"

"Hey, it's not my husband. When I married him, he was the deputy head of the third district of Juqiuxing in the twelve galaxies. As a result, his head is getting worse and worse. He has been assigned to the eighteenth galaxy..." Gao Li His tone was full of complaints, "He still asked to be transferred here on his own initiative."

A pair of dry and thin hands covered with mud kept taking food and water from Gavin.

Their eyes were lifeless, and they only showed a sincere smile when they got something.

Some people will stuff it into their mouths regardless of the real thing, and more people will carefully divide it into small portions and hide it.

Gavin's heart skipped a beat.

It was not until the evening that all the food and water behind them were distributed.

"Actually, it's just a drop in the bucket." Gao Li's tone was very self-deprecating when collecting things, "Treating the symptoms but not the root cause, many people die every day. Because there is no vaccine for them... I went to the quarantine area to see, so many people, I can't save it at all. This is still a city in a district. Gavin, how many cities like this do you think there are in the entire district?"

Gavin remained silent, he quickly helped Gao Li put away the stall, and followed her into the city.

"In the beginning, there were people who came to rob me. The old lady behind me is the original warrior I hired with money... After the suppression, no one dared to make trouble."

Gavin turned his head and glanced, the old grandma who was about to lose all her teeth showed a kind smile to him.

"Are vaccines expensive?"

Gao Li shook her head, "It's not expensive. If it's in other galaxies, the market price is only [-] interstellar coins... But you can't buy it here. The infectious disease this time is a zoonotic disease... Many Xiaolong people also suffer from it." So the pet trader directly bought this batch of free vaccines from the consul to use for Xiaolong people. People who are infected have no free vaccines to get.

Vaccines on the black market have been priced at [-] interstellar coins, and a course of treatment requires four vaccines.A little more wealthy civilians can still use it, but more people simply can't afford so much money...

And in order to continue to raise the price of vaccines, the local governor has ordered that those who are infected and not vaccinated in time will be sent directly to the quarantine area.There are people down there who are responsible for secretly spreading pathogens... people are constantly infected with infectious diseases. "

Speaking of this, Gao Liqi's shoulders were trembling.

Gavin looked at the white gauze on her arm, but asked another thing: "Is there no one to report to the above...?"

"Yes," Gao Li smiled at him with tears in his eyes, "My husband, the deputy head of the Ninth District, just passed the report letter, and when he went to the parallax epidemic area the next day, he was beaten by a group of angry refugees. Death. Later I inquired and said that they thought this man was the district chief who issued the deportation order..."

Gavin was startled, speechless for a long time, and finally said: "Sorry."

"It's all right...the report letter also fell into the sea. The head of the district is a native of the 30.00th star system, and has deep roots and leaves in the local area..." Gao Li raised her head and pointed to the airship in the sky, "Look, this little dragon trading company belongs to him Industry. It is also a leading enterprise that supports the economy and trade of the eighteen galaxies. It is too poor here, and [-]% of the tax is paid by such a company.”

Gavin put his hand on the Changsi Sword at his waist, and subconsciously knocked on the hilt.Chang Sijian does not have a scabbard, and the sound it makes is very crisp.

"What district chief is that, what level?"

Gao Li thought for a while, "...I've only been here for half a year, so I don't know very well. It should be about the same as my dad, both of which are seventh-level."

...Only the seventh level?

Yes, it was on Basil Star back then.Wasn't the district chief who was killed, the master of Zeus, only at the seventh level?

Gao Li took people into the city and led Gavin to his home.

As soon as the door was opened, the nanny smiled cordially with the child, and a babbling child walked over with short legs and hugged Gao Li's calf, "Muama~"

After speaking, he spit out a snot bubble.

Gao Li's eyes lit up, she picked him up with a smile, turned her head and stuffed him into Gavin's arms, "Look, my son. His name is Lin Yuqiu, and his nickname is Qiuqiu."

Caught off guard, a small dumpling was stuffed in. It was soft and fluffy, and it smelled like milk.

It was the first time for Gavin to hold a baby, and he didn't know where to put his nervous hands.

Qiuqiu didn't cry when she was stuffed into the stranger's arms. She waved her little hand and yelled childishly: "Heck!"

He's a pretty obedient kid.

Gavin's stiff facial expression instantly softened.

"Eh...but shouldn't it be called Uncle?"

I always feel that Gao Li is taking advantage of him.

A one-year-old baby in my arms is not as heavy as a cat.

Gavin was thinking about New Year's Eve again.

I didn't feel much before, but when I saw Qiuqiu, Gavin suddenly missed him very much.

Missing him like a tide, if Gavin had wings, he would be flying by now.

The nanny took a step forward and whispered to Gao Li, "Major Wu sent a message saying that there is a reception at Huo Mu Hotel today, and you are invited to attend..." Her voice was very low, but Gavin still I heard.

"No," Gao Li replied without thinking, and put on slippers, "Aunt Lin, prepare a guest room for him. This is a child of my relative's family. Let him stay for a few days."

She turned her head and looked at Gavin, "Really? You're going back to the Deep Blue Military Academy, right? Would you like me to book a ticket for you?"

Hearing the name of the Deep Blue Military Academy, the nanny's eyes moved slightly, and she turned to look at Gavin.

"That's what I planned," Gavin smiled for the first time since today, "but now I've changed my mind, Sister Gao Li. Are you missing a male companion for the reception?"

……

Since he was admitted to the Deep Blue Military Academy, the lower grades are ignored, and the level of the sixth and seventh grades of the senior grades is very rare, and he can only start as a low-level officer when he is thrown into the army.

Although the peers I came into contact with later, although they did not take off at the tenth step, at the age of 21, for example, Yue Qinghui and others, the tenth step seemed to be easy.

Not to mention seeing the Zerg later in the game.

All of them are amazing.Seeing that Qingshan is several months younger than him, there is no pressure to hang him in the ranks.

……

In terms of rank, he has been crushed all the time, and has never caught up to the forefront.

And because of his background, the "senior officials" in his eyes have always been Zhao Rongcheng, Li Zhifei, and Song Shaoyu.No matter how bad it is, it has to be at the level of Qing Yi or You Ziyin's father.

Therefore, Gavin almost forgot that at the seventh level, on a remote planet, he was already a big shot who could guard one side.

And he is no longer the boy who hides and hides, Xinghai was abolished.

He is the grade chairman of the Deep Blue Military Academy; he is the nominal apprentice of Marshal Song Shaoyu of the Third Army; he is the recipient of the Young Eagle Medal awarded by Li Zhifei himself; he is the hero of the empire that is talked about.

"I always feel that I'm still weak and inexperienced. After all, in my impression, I always seem to be hanged and beaten by others."

Gavin was blowing some long hair in the bedroom, and said to Chang Sijian on the side, "Do you think I should just tie my hairstyle right now? Or cut it shorter?...Do you know how to cut your hair?"

Chang Sijian's expression was very speechless, "If I knew it, Zhao Mingyue wouldn't look like that when she crawled out of the coffin."

Gavin thought he had something to say.

He put on the dark black suit that Gao Li had prepared for him, looked in the mirror, and chose a hairstyle with a small tuck in the back of his head.

The eyebrows and eyes of the person in the mirror have been completely opened, even if it is long hair, it does not have the soft and neutral beauty of when he was a teenager.

It is as bright as a jade tree before the wind.

If he hadn't died young in his previous life and lived to be in his twenties, he should have such a flamboyant appearance.

"But where am I going to put you... Just stay in Space Newly for now, okay?"

Chang Sijian probably already understood his thoughts.When Gao Li spoke, although he didn't have a form, he could hear clearly.

He nodded, and replied with a dignified face: "Yes."

Goryeo was still in mourning and also wore a black dress.Her expression was very solemn and solemn.

"I'm a little nervous." In the car, Gao Li said, clutching the small leather bag in her hand.It contained invitations.

Gavin hasn't worn formal clothes for a long time, and the clothes on his body are a little tight.I just urgently charged my phone, and I was sending a message to New Year's Eve, which probably means that I have come out, and I am currently in the eighteenth galaxy, and I will go back to see him immediately to deal with some matters.

By the way, I also sent a few messages to the "Moon Moon Out of Tianshan" in the account.

Probably something like "Sir, woo woo woo, I was sent to perform a secret mission, so there was no signal and no news, I didn't mean it!"

After sending, Gavin threw the phone back into his space.

Hearing Gao Li's words, Gavin thought for a while, adjusted the bow tie around his neck, and replied with a smile: "If you are afraid, close your eyes."

He will try his best to make the scene look better.

***

In a few days, it will be Gavin's 20th birthday.

Therefore, on New Year's Eve, he specially asked for annual leave from the school, and returned to Shenlan Military Academy, Song Shaoyu's residence.

An old father whose son is not around.

And a pet that papa isn't around.

Gather together to celebrate the silent birthday of a person who has no news for a long time.

By the way, share the latest situation.

The news of the complete annihilation of the Qiming Fleet sparked discussions throughout the empire, and the people were extremely pessimistic and terrified for a while.

It seemed unacceptable that the god of war in their eyes was defeated so quietly.

That is a holy rank powerhouse.

Even, it is the tacit understanding of many people in the empire that the strongest holy rank in the entire empire,

For a while, people were panicked.There are many diehard fans of Zhao Rongcheng in the military academy, and several mourning parties have been spontaneously organized in the past few days.

There are countless people who cried until they passed out.

When the mobile phone received the message, he was wearing an apron and cleaning on New Year's Eve.The main reason is that he is free and has nothing to do, and Song Shaoyu is not here.So I had to find something to do for myself, so as not to feel too depressed.

He placed deep purple lilacs on the dining table.The language of flowers is longing.

The phone screen lit up, telling him he had received a new message.

New Year's Eve casually picked up the phone and glanced at the screen.

The next moment, the expensive bone china cup in his hand was heavy and fell to the ground.

As expected of a precious ornament, even the sound of it being broken is so nice.

Yuanyuan on one side walked over holding a shovel as if complaining.

"I hate it, why do you and the marshal like to shake and break the cup, it's very expensive."

……

It turned out that Song Shaoyu also broke one.

On New Year's Eve, I almost felt dizzy.

At that moment, he just wanted to cry.

But he held back.

Holding back tears on New Year's Eve, he said in a trembling voice, "Yuanyuan, where is the Marshal's private starship? Call me one, I'm going to the eighteenth galaxy."

Yuanyuan scratched her head, didn't ask why, but replied crisply: "Okay."

go see him.

I'm an emotionless robot, but I know you all miss him.

In this way, there is no need to secretly hide in the quilt and cry on New Year's Eve!

He thought I didn't know yet, but I knew everything~ My eyes were swollen from crying on New Year's Eve last year~ I didn't leave the bedroom door all day!

Yuanyuan thought happily.
