won't your conscience ache

Many years later, the little girl named Ji Ya still often dreamed of that scene. She was sleeping in a capsule filled with viscous liquid. When a light came in, she opened her eyes ignorantly. The handsome man reached out to hug her out, and pulled out the tubes in her nasal cavity and throat.

When the tube was pulled out, her throat was so painful that she wanted to cry out, but the man held her in his arms and gently covered her mouth.

"Don't be afraid." The man whispered, "Your mother asked me to take you home, don't cry."

The things in front of Ji Ya gradually became clear, and she felt pain. The next moment, fresh air poured into her lungs, and she took a big breath. She called "Mom", and the man hugged her tightly, took off the protective clothing and wrapped her her.

Ji Ya grabbed his sleeve tightly and cried softly.

The man had a strong salty smell, and Ji Ya later realized that it was the smell of blood. The gunshots exploded in the port, and the deafening roar seemed to come from the center of the earth. The steam of the giant ship spiraled to the top, and the universe Spinning and collapsing rapidly, as if this is the end, this is the end.

The man carried her out and walked out of the shadow step by step. The sweat on his face hit her palms in drops, it was extremely cold.

Suddenly, he lowered his head and smiled at Ji Ya, his black pupils turned iron gray under the light of the cabin.

At that moment, a giant in the center of the universe was ringing the bell, and the giant sword of Saiyan City was burning.A man is not like a prince, he is like an evil dragon, spreading his dark and huge black wings, and carefully protecting her on his chest, as if he is holding a precious treasure and a princess in his arms.

There is fire in the dragon's eyes.

That scene still resurfaced in Ji Ya's dream after many years, and she has never been afraid of the dark since then.There is a fire in her heart.

District Six.

The cabin is filled with steel racks, and containers are placed on a boat, with high-radiation warning signs posted on them.The middle-aged man was leaning on the door frame to eat, and the workers were moving the containers down one after another. He suddenly raised his head and yelled at a worker who was staggering and falling, "Hey!"

The worker hurriedly lowered his head and walked out carefully holding the box.

In this era, most of the manpower has been replaced by machines, but the workers in this cabin are all workers. There is only one situation where this is the case. The cost of labor is far lower than the cost of using machinery.

There are nearly 8000 million cheapest labor forces in the empire.

There is a shiny iron plate hanging in front of the cabin, and a few words are pasted on it: Koror.

The flag of the inverted cross stood on the bow, the fiery red flag fluttered in the wind, and a red-eyed cobra was nailed to the cross.

Looking in the direction where the workers were walking, the empty and simple square leads directly to the entrance of the large interstellar waterway dedicated to ore. There is a sky ladder soaring into the sky, and there is a brand of unknown metal material hidden in the cloud of gas, and the four words are faintly visible : Pingjin Port.

At dusk that day, a loud noise sounded from the next door to Pingjin Port, and all the workers looked up, shocked.

The interstellar giant ship floating in the air exploded, and the strong aftermath directly sent a small ship into the interstellar channel. The sky in No. [-] area was brighter than ever before. The man looked back, and typed the sailing command without hesitation.

A large wave of black ships emerged from the night. If it weren't for the light of the explosion, no one would have noticed that there was such a black fleet in the very nearby dark sky, and they densely covered the entire sky.

The signal was interfered, and the Sky Eye was physically blocked in the most brutal and simple way. The man tore off the communication device and called up the sky map on the screen.

The small craft broke into a channel.

Ji Ya woke up from a coma, she looked at the man in front of the podium who was urgently repairing the communication, she remembered this man, the two met on a sunny day, the man raised a timid owl, the owl has double Sky blue eyes.

"Mom, Dad!" Ji Ya called out.

The man immediately looked back, the viscous and cold liquid flowed down the tip of his hair, and Ji Ya was shivering from the cold.She cried out, but no sound came out of her throat. The man hugged her, "Shh! Don't be afraid."

The shock wave damaged the ship's temperature control facilities, the temperature was getting lower and lower, and the man's face was covered with frost. Ji Ya wrapped his coat and shivered in his arms, "Brother."

"Don't be afraid."

"Cold, brother, I'm cold."

The man tore off his shirt with a swipe to cover Ji Ya, and quickly tapped his fingers on the podium. Ji Ya's crying disturbed his thoughts, and the robot intelligence kept sending out red alarms. Whispered: "Your mother said you like watching cartoons?"

Ji Ya was so cold that she was about to pass out. When she heard the animation, she involuntarily raised her eyelids. She sobbed and whispered, "It's animation."

The man laughed, "Sorry. You like the female commander in cartoons, right? You told your mother that you want to be a female commander, right?"

Ji Ya pressed close to the man's chest to keep warm, she nodded.

The man said: "From now on, you are the female commander!" The man tore off the silver epaulets with a swipe and stuck them on her body, "Listen, the female commander cannot cry, she must be brave, and everyone believes in her."

Ji Ya was stunned, there were still tears in her eyes, and the epaulets on her shoulders were dazzling and heavy, "Be brave..."

"Don't cry."

After an unknown amount of time, Ji Ya slowly covered her mouth with her trembling hands, she still shed tears uncontrollably, but she really tried her best not to make any more noise.

The Xinghe was extremely silent, the small ships flexibly avoided the swarm-like fleet behind them, and the attack waves were like raging meteors. The man knocked on the command hand faster and faster, until the mecha prompted that the command center was destroyed.The man's hand paused and immediately switched to manual.

The communicator suddenly went on for two seconds.

"Lin Pei! Coordinates! Send coordinates!" He He almost jumped up and yelled at the communicator.

The communication was cut off again. Lin Pei frowned slightly when he saw the notification that the transmission failed. The temperature in the cabin was getting lower and lower, and his fingers began to stiffen. The next moment, the whole ship shook violently and almost turned over. .Lin Pei hugged Ji Ya without hesitation, he grabbed the podium, and the two of them didn't fall backwards.

The ship was hit.

Various alerts popped up instantly, and dozens of lines of red warnings quickly scrolled across the screen, and Jijia Intelligence suggested to abandon the ship.

Lin Pei slapped that stupid thing out, this is the interstellar railroad!Before the support arrived, abandoning the ship was tantamount to a heroic sacrifice. He had no interest in being a martyr. He had to go back and kill Lin Si on the bed. Lin Peilian wiped off the blood knocked out of his face and quickly checked the condition of the cabin.

This is not a warship, nor a fighter jet, but an ordinary cargo ship that leads the way. How high can a ship that comes out of the sixth area be so advanced?

At this time, he knew how warm the capital was. Lin Pei swore that after he went out, he must press Lin Si's head and ask him to install a defense system for all ships in the sixth area for free, even the lowest level!Can this kind of ship also sail in the interstellar world?Any small storm directly crushed it.

The damage to the ship was very serious, the temperature dropped to minus six degrees in just one minute, and the chance of falling to death was very high.

At the time of life and death, Lin Pei also took the time to bless his teammate Bai Xiao who is thousands of miles away. He is not the only one who plays the game of speed and passion. If the situation here is bad, Bai Xiao, who has attracted at least 80.00% of the firepower, has probably opened hell escape mode.The two agreed before that Bai Xiao would attract firepower and Lin Pei would save people. It was originally planned that He He and Lin Pei would appear on the scene, but Bai Xiao did not expect Bai Xiao to go directly. At this moment, Bai Xiao was walking a street in the downtown area on the other side of the city. Blow up a street and play very stable.

After all, blasting the sky group, a good hand depends on bombing.

Lin Pei couldn't care about Bai Xiao anymore, and he didn't expect that these people didn't send Ji Ya out at all. Ji Ya's people have been on the interstellar channel, no wonder the fixed point always failed. The moment he found Ji Ya, he knew what was going on. The road is difficult to walk, the cruelty of the battle in the interstellar is far more than the battle on the ground, especially in the situation of the disparity between the enemy and the enemy.

Amidst the non-stop sirens, Lin Pei's hand, which was searching Tiantu, stopped suddenly.

Wormhole channel.

006.

Energy detection, qualified.

Lin Pei suddenly laughed, and he played dirty in front of the chasing fleet.

Many years later, some people still discussed Lin Pei's operation in military theory class, and the most talked about was the word "pity". If there were no mistakes, this operation should have become some kind of symbol and be included in military school textbooks.Back then, the first few batches of special agents were really outstanding and shocking. They ushered in a golden age. Later, Bai Xiao, Xia Nan, He He and a large number of other outstanding agents were all tactical geniuses.

Lin Pei is the most famous one among them, but also the most regrettable one, because he died.

Lin Pei lured a large number of tracking fleets into the wormhole, entered the wormhole with the help of the shock wave, protected the last part of escape fuel and the most basic communication equipment, and he crossed the two wormholes.

This matter can only be said in one sentence, but the actual difficulty is unimaginably high.

Lin Pei did it.

There is no problem with his operation, very clean and beautiful.

The problem is that news.

"Now we will break out a piece of news: There are abnormal energy fluctuations in the wormhole channel located in the No. 006 terminal. The expert group recommends that some checkpoints be closed for emergency maintenance. The following batches of interstellar channels have been closed: 113, [-]..."

Lin Pei looked at the scene in front of him, and the news he glanced at was played back so clearly in his ears.

The entrance of No. 113 has been closed, and the detection experts have not yet arrived at the scene. No one can imagine what the entrance of No. 113 is.

That is truly forbidden.

Infinite darkness.

In the endless darkness, the skeletons of [-] warships floated silently. The [-] Galaxy soldiers who died in the bioengineering experiment had rust on their shoulder straps.

Ji Ya's eyes widened, and a short voice came out from her lips that were purple with cold, "Brother." She looked at the shocked Lin Pei, and suddenly became frightened, "Brother."

Lin Pei didn't respond to her. He was recalling the death process of those 2 people. According to the highest-level archives of the military department, the [-] Xinghe soldiers did not die from explosions, nor did they die from virus infection. The files did not clearly record the cause of death. , there are only two extremely vague records in the memoirs of a certain retired general.

Those 2 people died by suicide.

The Starship Fleet is a fleet directly under Yunding's subordinates. It was one of Linsi's confidant fleets back then, and was called the Horn of Dawn.

On the eve of dawn, the horn of war sounded, this is a death squad.

The truth gradually formed in Lin Pei's mind.

The military department concealed the truth, and the border sent troops to rescue them. All 2 Galaxy soldiers were infected by the virus. In that period of unrecorded historical blank, they did not collapse. They completed their tasks as usual, controlling Surviving the dangerous situation in the explosion zone, sending out uninfected civilians, cleaning up all the bases after the disaster, and then these [-] people, driving their own fighter jets, embarked on the last interstellar voyage, as if they took out their hearts and burned them in mythology Dan Ke, they flocked to the forbidden area of ​​death.

The army of death disappeared into the black hole, and the horn of dawn echoed in the depths of the galaxy.

Lin Pei finally understood why Lin Si insisted on restarting the notorious biological experiment plan.Virus outbreaks are very common. Humans have had several protracted wars against viruses. The original intention of the Pandora Bioengineering was to conquer this land of death. Large-scale outbreaks of viruses are really common, but 2 people are infected collectively. In order to control Infection, and finally spontaneous collective suicide, the impact of this scene is too strong.No one can bear it.

These people are the soldiers of the empire, they are the horns of the people, and they are the soldiers who followed Lin Si through life and death.

They disappeared into the black hole, and the light accidentally recorded the scene before their death. The strong gravitational force happened to distort the light into a ring, and finally miraculously reproduced this scene before Lin Pei's eyes.

These are not the corpses of Xinghe soldiers, these are just lights, which recorded the last moments of their lives.

Those people are dead forever.

Ji Ya was afraid, she grabbed Lin Pei tightly, Lin Pei exhaled suddenly as he checked the ship, he was a little out of breath, he didn't expect to see this scene, let alone that the wormhole with abnormal energy fluctuations would go straight through A collapsing black hole, according to the test results, the energy of the black hole is extremely unstable, and the distance is quite far, so there is some light remaining. Time and space are broken, and the gravitational force is strong, and the ship that Lin Pei is driving is simply unable to resist this gravitational force.

This ship will be sucked past, and eventually disappear into nothingness just like the [-] Galaxy soldiers. There is no light, nothing. That is real death.

Lin Pei's hands trembled a little, and sweat dripped onto the podium.

There are no more pursuers, and the escape pod can be used normally, but there is not enough spare fuel, so it may be difficult to break out of the shackles of this gravitational force.He was quickly estimating the escape route, and finally, the Jijia intelligence issued a dire warning: the speed is approaching the critical point, please evacuate immediately.

Lin Pei's mech has intelligence problems, Lin Pei doesn't dare to listen to a word he usually says, this thing is unstable like a sweeping robot.But this time, Lin Pei's hand froze instantly.

As time goes by, under the influence of gravity, the speed of the ship will become faster and faster, and eventually even the rescue capsule will be unusable.

"Brother..." Ji Ya finally called Lin Pei in a low voice. She was so cold that she was unconscious, and there was a bright frost on her shoulder strap. She looked at Lin Pei, "Brother, I want to go home."

Lin Pei looked at her.

It was a single-person rescue capsule. In order to save money, the people in District [-] only installed one rescue capsule. One seat can only accommodate one person, and it is impossible to take it even if it is a child.

"Brother." Ji Ya stretched out her hand that was purple with cold and gently held Lin Pei. She didn't know how bad the situation was, she believed in Lin Pei instinctively, she comforted Lin Pei, and she used a barely audible voice Said: "Brother, from now on, Xiaoya, Xiaoya will be like my brother. To be a commander, I will be brave. I, I will not be afraid."

Lin Pei stopped touching the gun, he felt that he should shoot the little girl before she could speak.

There's only one rescue pod, and the girl doesn't even know how to use a console.

The warning sound rang again and again, Lin Pei looked down at her face, and suddenly remembered Lin Si's gaze before sending him off, Lin Si was waiting for him.He promised Lin Si that he would go back alive. In his life, he never said "I love you" to Lin Si. It's ridiculous to think about these things at this moment, but Lin Pei couldn't control it. The thought swirled in his mind.His grip on the gun shook.

Fuck the news, it's normal for the rescue to fail, Lin Pei doesn't care about other things at all, there is only one way to survive, if the mission fails, then he fails, he killed the child so that she would not freeze to death alone in this cabin, and it is considered as a gift for everyone confessed.Not to mention that this child doesn't know how to fly a spaceship, even if she does, Lin Pei can't give her the way to survive. Before life and death, human nature is too fragile, who the hell wouldn't want to go back alive?

Fuck morality!Fuck public opinion!Lins is waiting for him!

Jijia Intelligence found that Lin Pei's emotions were out of control.

The warning sound became louder and louder. The little girl looked up at him, as if looking at a hero. She saw Lin Pei's hands in his pockets shaking. She stepped forward and carefully covered her clothes with trembling. On Lin Pei's hand, "Brother is not cold, Xiaoya is not cold, brother is wearing clothes, Xiaoya is not cold."

Lin Pei's hand holding the gun froze.

He finally drew his gun, and shot through the twisted inner hatch.

He carried Ji Ya into the rescue cabin, fastened her seat belt with trembling hands, and left the mech intelligence in the rescue cabin.

"grown ups."

"Shut up!" Lin Pei patted the levitation controller's head, "Take care of him! If you get lost again, I'll just scrap you!"

Ji Ya was frightened by Lin Pei's suddenly raised voice. She stared blankly at Lin Pei. Lin Pei suddenly raised his hand and pulled out his own chip and belt from the back of his neck. The intense pain at that moment made him kneel directly. on the ground.

"elder brother!"

He didn't speak, and buried the chip in Ji Ya's shoulder strap with trembling hands, and he whispered to Ji Ya: "From now on, you are the real commander, the first female commander of the empire, this It's your first interstellar flight, listen, the whole empire will be proud of you."

After saying this, without wasting a second, Lin Pei walked out of the rescue cabin,

Ji Ya watched him go out, and his back disappeared behind the silver door.

During separation, the main cabin expended its last fuel to give the rescue capsule a strong boost.

Ji Ya sat alone in front of the console, looking at the vast darkness, completely stunned, "Brother!" The short-distance communication was still available, and she heard the sound of slow breathing.

"Don't be afraid, follow the instructions, look ahead, and never look back."

Ji Ya shouted, "Brother!" She burst into tears, a female commander wouldn't cry, but she still cried, "Brother!"

The man on the other end comforted her, Ji Ya desperately tried to hold back her tears, she wanted to hear the man's voice clearly, but the voice was so vague, it seemed that she couldn't hear it in the dark, Ji Ya called him loudly, it was so vague The voice seemed to give her extremely powerful strength, she heard the man ask her.

"What's your name?"

"Jiya... My name is Ji Ya."

The other end was silent for a long time, and whispered: "Why don't we exchange secrets?"

"Okay...okay!" Ji Ya forced back tears, he wanted to tell him all the secrets, but for a moment he couldn't remember any secrets he had, she cried anxiously, "I...I... ...I am eight years old this year!"

There was a chuckle on the other end, "I'm 25 this year."

"I...I want to be a female commander. My favorite anime is Aya's Adventures. I...my mother is a scientist! My father is an engineer!"

The other side listened quietly, and after a long time he said: "I am a soldier, my father is a soldier, my mother is a member of parliament, and I have an older brother." The voice on the other side paused for a while, "He is also a soldier."

"My favorite person is my mother, she is the best person I have ever met."

"My favorite person is... is my brother, and he is also the nicest person I have ever met."

Ji Ya didn't know why tears fell out, she said, "Brother! I have no secrets! Brother!"

The voice on the other side is already very low, excessive blood loss, low temperature, communication interference, who knows?Ji Ya heard that the voice was getting lower and lower, and even her breathing was intermittent. She shouted: "Brother! Brother, talk! Talk!"

"I……"

"elder brother!"

"Let me teach you a sentence." The man whispered: "When you go out, no matter who you see, don't cry, recite this sentence out loud."

"Good! Good!" Ji Ya nodded desperately.

The man asked her, "Do you remember?"

Ji Ya nodded, "I remember! Brother, I remember!"

There was no sound from the other end. After a long time, he whispered: "Don't be afraid."

"Brother, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid." Ji Ya hurriedly raised her hand to wipe her tears, and a soft singing voice sounded from the opposite side, and Ji Ya was stunned for a while. Listening to the very common "White Ocean", she felt flustered A controlled the spaceship and flew towards the exit of the wormhole, the singing was soft and peaceful.

"The small river flows quietly, and the white dove flies over the hometown of falling snow.

Long journey, I heard someone humming in my ear.

Wandering traveler.

Send a bouquet of white ocean to your beloved girl.

Soldiers dragged their flags and wandered in the brilliant galaxy.

Singing songs, thousands of times for you.

He said he loves you.

He said he would never forget.

The small river flows quietly, and the white dove flies over the snow-fallen village.

Long journey, I see the white ocean at the end. "

The man's voice was very soft, and at the end it was almost inaudible. Ji Ya listened to the almost inaudible singing and looked at the darkness ahead. She clenched her hands and cried silently, repeating what the man taught her over and over in her heart until The voice completely disappeared in his ears, and the man said:

"Jiya, you are a miracle, a real miracle."

After passing through the wormhole, light reappeared in the world.

The moment the rescue capsule was opened, everyone was stunned. There were people outside, densely packed armed forces, all imperial soldiers, and they all looked at the little girl inside the rescue capsule.One of them, wearing a black military uniform, stood in the middle of the crowd, like a black sea of ​​white.

Someone carried her out of the cabin, and she saw her mother rushing towards her, hugging her all at once, but she couldn't hear the sound, so she pushed her mother gently with all her strength.

She jumped to the ground, and suddenly raised her hand to salute everyone with an extremely standard military salute.

"Group 27 of the [-]th Regiment of the Special Agent Group Affiliated to the [-]th Division of the Empire, Ji Ya, has successfully arrived at the destination, and the report is over!"

On her shoulders, the snow-colored epaulets are shining brightly.
