Optimus Prime, who came back from Chernobyl, was angry.

The matter of An Ning hadn't been resolved yet, and there was another shock wave, and the last straw was pressed on top of all this, so that Optimus Prime had to respond to all the questions with silence to prevent his anger from spreading to innocent people. Yes: The loot brought back from Chernobyl - an engine part from a legendary, fallen Autobot ship.

At the nanosecond when he saw that part, Optimus Prime felt as if he had returned to Cybertron, the Cybertron that was full of gunpowder and hadn't died yet. But at that time, there were many fellow Autobots around him, And his mentor, Yu Natural Enemy.Still in the hope of reconciling with the Decepticons led by Megatron, he launches the spaceship "Ark" and...

Then this last hope perished with the Ark, which was destroyed in the air.

Thinking of the despair when he saw the flames of the Ark being hit, combined with the significance of the discovery of the Ark's engine parts in this place, Optimus Prime's heart was extremely bad: the Ark's engine parts were found in humans. The discovery of a long-abandoned nuclear power plant illustrates the point that human allies don't tell them what they know about their race when they know everything about them—at least a fair amount of it is still They conceal it intentionally or unintentionally.

After all, they are of different races. When one party does something that does not conform to the agreement, the other party will inevitably have a bad impression on the entire race.Even Optimus Prime cannot completely avoid this.

So, when An Ning dodged around Lannos and the others and stood in front of him, after a moment of reassurance, Optimus Prime's anxiety reached its peak: he wanted An Ning to come in, and wanted her to lie on his bed. On the steering wheel of his car, I want to hear her say "I love you, so don't worry, everything will be fine" that I don't know if it will come true, but it will give him temporary peace. ——

But he couldn't, which made him extremely anxious.

He can't even confide his troubles to her, just because of the unresolved virus-as the leader, he must keep a distance from her in front of all the Autobots, to prove that he has not lost his ability to lead, to prove this Viruses are not that dangerous.

"O, Op?" The girl standing in front of the air intake of the truck painted with blue flames twisted, and seemed to be holding something in her clasped hands, her tone was disturbed, "I think Ironhide has already conveyed my apology to you But I still want to face to face..."

"I think Ironhide has conveyed my words to you: you are not wrong, and I do not blame you." Optimus Prime's voice did not fluctuate.

"But—you're angry."

"It's none of your business. Now, if you don't mind, I'd like to be alone for a while."

An Ning's beautiful blue eyes widened in surprise at Optimus Prime's words, she had never been rejected so coldly by him.Her lips trembled for a long time before she struggled to make a forced arc: "Okay...Okay. I, I will go back first. If there is anything I can do to help, you know where I can be found."

"Little devil! Little devil!—Ann! Where are you?!...Wow!" The Kung Fu student who inspected a weapon disappeared, and the Tin Pi teacher searched all over the base for the small, naughty student, and suddenly jumped out. An Ning was taken aback, "Can't you answer first?! I almost stepped on you!! I remember I told you to wait... What's wrong with you?"

Tie Pi moved the focus away from An Ning, who was hugging his calf armor, and cast it in the direction where An Ning was running, where the big red and blue trucks stopped quietly, without any indication.The old Autobot shortened the distance between the light frames slightly, sighed inaudibly, leaned over and put his hand next to the blonde girl, and when the other party consciously climbed up, he nodded to his old friend: "Leader. "

The latter flashed the flashing lights at him, then started the engine, and after slowly backing up to the point where he could turn around, he drove out of the hall silently, pressing against the smooth marble floor.

"He's in a bad mood today." Iron Skin also turned around and walked in the opposite direction, while explaining to the little human girl on his palm, "But obviously it's not because of you, probably because this mission brought him trouble. He probably doesn't want to talk to anyone right now, including me."

The little girl curled up in the palm of the black Autobot spread her hands and looked at the thing lying on her palm: "I just want him to open his heart..."

"There's nothing we can do for him right now—except leave him alone for a while." Ironhide said in a voice as hoarse as a sounder filled with the smoke of a battlefield.

An Ning sighed for a long time, looked at the thing on the palm of his hand for the last time, and asked his teacher: "I see. I'll give this to him when he's in a better mood. . . . Do you think he will like it?" ?"

Tie Pi glanced at the object in her palm, and laughed twice: "Of course, he will definitely like it."

The efficiency of the government is at its highest in Optimus Prime's silent protests.On the second day, Charlotte Meilin, the director of the intelligence department, brought a secretary who was full of Spring Festival spirit to the nest base, and even the conversation with An Ning was scheduled for a few months later, and then the more efficient final decision was made three days later. Fly to the moon.

It's just too much fun to wait for the peace of Optimus Prime to calm down.

"The moon? A space trip? That's so cool!" she jumped up and down screaming.Seeing her joy, Tiepi hesitated for a long time before reminding the other party that it was not she but Optimus Prime and the ambulance who went into space, and in exchange for the other party rolling in his palms.

Oh, it’s not fun to go to the moon, there are only rocks, Tin Pi tried to comfort him, next time when your human technology develops, you can go on long-distance interstellar travel, and take you to the planet Santari 37, where it will be fun!

But even so, An Ning still lay motionless in the iron palm with her mouth puffed out and pretended to be dead.

Tiepi scratched his helmet for a long time, tried his best, but still failed to cheer An Ning up. Just when his CPU was about to smoke, he suddenly thought of a good idea.

"How about this, I'll ask my brother to bring you a meteorite from the moon? You can see what the moon looks like just by looking at it."

"Really?! Yes, yes, yes!"

"It's a small matter! Wait here!"

Iron Pi put down and looked at An Ning expectantly, then turned around and greeted the ambulance that passed the door with a data pad and was shot while lying down.After they explained the situation, the ambulance rejected them with a straight face, on the grounds that the things brought back from alien planets might contain unknown germs or radiation that would harm people on Earth, which was very dangerous.

An Ning struggled for a while and asked, didn't you treat me exactly the same when you came from the alien planet?

Then both Tinhide and the ambulance got tangled up.

In the end, An Ning didn't become the youngest or oldest astronaut on Earth, nor did she get the promise of moon souvenirs brought by the ambulance, but at least she got the best position to watch the rocket carrying Optimus Prime and the ambulance go up. empty right.

"I really want to go to space once." An Ning blinked her eyes dazzled by rocket tail flames, and said to the iron sheet supporting her, "Look, this universe is so-so big, but we only reach it by ourselves Passing by the nearest companion star. It feels like ancient humans looked at a vast ocean, but could barely set foot on a nearby small island."

Ironhide withdrew his gaze from the rocket that had successfully lifted off, turned to the little human girl in his hand, then moved his thumb, tapped lightly on the other's cheek, and said heroically: "Don't worry, you will have this kind of girl one day." kind of chance."

"really?"

"I have no reason to lie to you." The black Autobot said, "I will tell you something that even your government doesn't know: when a race has the ability to travel long-distance interstellar to another planet inhabited by intelligent life forms, You will be invited by the Galactic Council (Note), you will be welcomed and navigated, you will see a wider world, you will be recognized by the universe, and you will go on a magnificent journey of exploration. More importantly - this exploration It is estimated that it will take millions or even tens of millions of years for the journey to end: the universe is bigger than you can imagine."

The human girl seemed to have stars in her eyes: "Then, by then, can I travel with you?"

"If you wanted to then."

"Tick it?"

Tiepi stared at An Ning, who even felt a little embarrassed when he said this, until the other person's face turned red and explained that he was just joking, and then he laughed out loud.

He laughed so boldly and carefreely, his laughter was like bursts of thunder, which could infect almost everyone who heard the laughter—naturally, these infected people also included An Ning.Although she didn't know where the joke was, just hearing the other party's laughter made her feel better, and she laughed out loud.

"Tick tick." Tiepi grinned and stretched out her little finger that was too big for a human being to An Ning.

"Tick tick." An Ning also put her little finger on the silver knuckle.

……

When Armstrong came back from the moon, he brought to mankind the famous saying "That's one small step for man, but one giant leap for mankind" and a lot of specimens and witnesses of the moon; A natural enemy and five energy pillars that can be eaten like him came.

Then it became clear that the well-qualified Autobot was not getting along with the Director of National Intelligence.

"...The space bridge can also transport weapons and soldiers! Even nuclear bombs! This is a weapon! You should report to the customs office first!"

"If you learn to respect!"

One person and one machine looked at each other tensely, and none of them flinched.And at this tense moment, standing behind Charlotte Meilin, the base recorder with a drooping hat said: "No offense intended, gentlemen and ladies—"

As soon as she opened her mouth, she attracted the attention of all the creatures present and caused a commotion, and among these unnatural commotions, only the newly awakened Royal Sky Enemy reacted simply because of her words: "Report your Name and rank, soldier."

"An Ning, my name is 'An Ning', you can call me 'An'. And I don't have any official title." The recorder in the loose training uniform of the base smiled reservedly and gracefully and pushed up the brim of his hat a little. Fearlessly looking directly at Royal Natural Enemy, who was frowning displeased by these words, "To be precise, I'm not even a staff member of this base. But I believe I have enough capital to talk to you, respected Mr. Royal Natural Enemy."

"...Ann?" Optimus Prime, who had rarely communicated with An Ning after the Dino incident, stared blankly at the man who quoted the relevant regulations in the current agreement between Autobots and humans to Yu Natural Enemy in a calm and generous manner. The blond girl, the shouts and exclamations from the comrades around her seem to be isolated in the area to be processed, and the entire processor is extracting and distinguishing the difference in the tone of the current behavior of "An" and "Ning", but the difference is almost small enough to can be ignored.

She's growing, she's becoming that Ning, she's... losing time.

Hearing Optimus Prime's whisper, An Ning raised her head and showed him a hasty but bright smile, but this made Optimus Prime even more uncomfortable.

Her time...for them has been...

"Leader of the Natural Enemy!! Please stay away from that human being!" Just when Optimus Prime was dazed by the surging emotions, Dino, who had not received a reply from the internal call for a long time, shouted in Cybertron, "It carries Virus!!"

The slightly calm atmosphere became tense again because of this sentence, and the displeasure of being contradicted was calmed down by An Ning's friendly attitude, Yu Tiandi's expression froze when he heard the words, he took a step back, and looked at the unknown An Ning vigilantly.Because of this, Optimus Prime came back to his senses, secretly scolded himself for his gaffe, and at the same time quickly comforted his mentor a few words, indicating that the other party was not carrying any deadly virus, nor was there any danger. An Ning said in a deep voice: "This is not where you should be, Ann. You are not a staff member of the lair, nor a government recorder. You are not qualified to come here."

The latter showed a sad expression for a moment because of Optimus Prime's words. The next moment, she put away this expression, shrugged, and raised her chin to gesture to Sam and Carly who were standing on the high steps: "I think this You should speak to them first."

"Get out of here, go now." Optimus Prime moved his body, blocking the other Autobots - especially Dino and Sentinel - from looking at the unfriendly ray that was about to evolve into substance. Gaze, growled at the girl who kept saying "I'm just trying to help" before things got worse, "I said NOW!"

An Ning shivered in fright from the growl, she looked at Optimus Prime in disbelief, tried hard to hold back the tears but couldn't help but her eyes were red.Her hands clenched the railing in front of her, her knuckles turning white.She felt embarrassed, angry, and wanted to get angry but didn't know how to do it.

She glared at the great Autobot leader in embarrassment, the rail trembling slightly in her hands, and...

She let go of it weakly, lowered her head, turned around and walked out of the hall under countless unfriendly gazes.And no one noticed that a black Autobot also quietly exited the hall.

After the blond girl disappeared behind the door, Charlotte Meilin and Yu Tiandi cast their eyes on each other at the same time. Both sides could see the scrutiny and hostility in each other's eyes. The two high-ranking leaders felt that they were affected. Belittle from a leader of another race.

It was at this moment that Charlotte Meilin made a wrong decision.

In collisions between two races, it is always those in the middle that hurt the most.
