rainy night talk

"It seems that the time for me to call you back is not very good." The old man said apologetically.

"No, it is my honor to participate in this project." In fact, when he received the project invitation, William happened to tell Chen Zhen that he would have a two-week vacation, and Chen Zhen's first reaction at that time was: run away.So, he hesitated and confessed: "For personal reasons, I just want to go somewhere else."

However, the old man knew that Chen Zhen was still in a state of mental tension during those few days. He looked at the young man carefully through the lens, and felt that he seemed to have missed something.

"You don't seem to have told me the name of the sentinel yet."

Chen Zhen glanced up, cowardly like a child who made a mistake, and said, "William, his name is William Cauchy."

"Oh...it's him." The old man held his forehead, "I seem to have done it... Did I bother you?"

Chen Zhen shook his head violently, "It's nothing, Professor. In fact, I had a good time during the two weeks in the space station."

Since Professor Maslow's research institute has a long-term cooperative relationship with the military, Chen Zhen followed his mentor to participate in military intelligence design projects when he was a student.

In this project, Chen Zhen is only responsible for the system maintenance and update of the AI ​​members on the starship.This is not difficult for him.And if he is assigned to a small ship, Chen Zhen can guarantee that he can complete it in half the time—that is, within seven standard earth days.

Maybe you can also enjoy the wonderful cosmic wonders in the space station.

Chen Zhen thought easily.

On the night of his arrival at the space station, he was told that he had been assigned to a supership.

"Coincidence?" The old man sighed softly.

Chen Zhen shook his head, "No, it's not a coincidence."

Ignoring the abnormal behavior of the receptionist at that time, Chen Zhen still showed up on the supership early in the morning with great dedication.

"The freedom of movement of the mecha should be limited to less than 30%. How can you change it to 50%?" Looking at the red data on the control panel, Chen Zhen felt that his work was not as easy as expected.

"We have always been 50%." The petite commissioning officer tried to get away with an understatement, but his erratic eyes still exposed himself. Under Chen Zhen's stern eyes, he could only smile awkwardly: "They won't run away."

"No, they will." Although the second modification of the mecha has always been the default in the starship, but for safety reasons, Chen Zhen decided that it would be better to follow the rules.

"Wait, wait...you don't have permission to change it!" The debugging officer snatched the control panel.

Chen Zhen spread his hands helplessly, "Then tell me who has authority?"

"captain!"

Before Chen Zhen turned his head, he had an ominous premonition.I saw William with his arms crossed in front of his chest, his tall body leaning against the door frame, with a standard smile like in a poster, and a romantic storm seemed to be brewing in Wang Yang's eyes.

William began to read: "I think this is..."

"Three super ships, sixteen speed ships, 46 standard ships, 1/65 probability, I'm afraid it can't be explained by coincidence, Mr. Cauchy." Chen Zhen's cold voice echoed in the room.

William made a gesture of surrender, "Well, I'm asking them to send you to my side, of course they are also very willing to be an adult... After all, we are married, do you remember?"

He smiled even wider.

Chen Zhen suddenly felt a little headache.

On the other side, the woman following William caught Chen Zhen's attention.She was supposed to be a confident and capable female officer in military uniform, but at this moment, her eyes widened in surprise, and her eyes wandered between William and Chen Zhen. She seemed to feel that she should do something.

"I... I remembered that I still have something to do!" As she said that, she took two steps back out of the corridor, but halfway through the retreat, she remembered something again, and quickly grabbed the debugger who was still out of the situation The officer disappeared from the sight of the two together.

William said lightly: "Now it's time for the two of you to be alone."

Chen Zhen: "..."

In the next few days, Chen Zhen could always see William at different times and places.Although William didn't make any noise when he was working, the scorching sight was enough to make people feel tormented.

Finally, the unbearable Chen Zhen protested: "I remember you should be on vacation! Mr. Kexi."

"Please call me William." The corners of his mouth that could not be suppressed raised into a vortex due to the downward movement of his muscles. He didn't look like a person who had been left out for a long time. "The purpose of my vacation is to see you, but now the purpose has been achieved, so I decided to save the vacation and use it later."

Chen Zhen paused for a moment with his fingertips sliding on the control panel: I really hope that I don't need to know how to use it later.

As if not intending to stop the conversation, William added: "You don't actually have to work from morning to night, there is plenty of time, we can go around the space station, it should be very interesting."

After deliberating for so long, William finally expressed his wish. Chen Zhen didn't know if he revealed his emotions on purpose, but since the other party said it, he could reply as planned: "I will take care of everything within five standard days. "

William raised his eyebrows, "And then?"

"go home."

"It's your style."

Chen Zhen really wanted to irony him - "You seem to know me very well", but then thought that this question might lead to an ambiguous conversation.

So he replied: "Thank you for the compliment."

Chen Zhen discovered for the first time that he is very suitable to be a topic stopper.

William returned without success, which made Chen Zhen a little proud, but the next moment, he began to worry about whether his behavior had gone too far, and became annoyed about it.

On this day, Chen Zhen was staring at a bowl of vegetable soup in a daze in the restaurant, when suddenly a person sat down across from him—the female adjutant who had been with William before.

After a brief self-introduction, Chen Zhen learned that her name was Meryl.

"I've wanted to meet you for a long time." Meryl said with a smile, "It was such an embarrassing day, I wish I had a chance to act again."

Chen Zhen shook his head, indicating that he didn't care, and asked, "You know me?"

"You need to know that the pairing status of Sentinels is not confidential internally."

Chen Zhen frowned. Unlike his simple social circle, William's situation was a little more complicated.Chen Zhen felt that she had to re-evaluate the impact of submitting the divorce application on the other party.

"Did you quarrel?" Meryl asked in a low voice.

"What? Umm...no..."

"He must have done something wrong."

Chen Zhen didn't know what made the female adjutant come to such a conclusion. He subconsciously felt that William should be a popular figure here, "Can I ask you the reason for your guess?"

Meryl smiled, leaned forward slightly, and lowered her voice: "I know he's actually quite annoying."

Is it really okay for you to say that about your superior?Chen Zhen secretly glanced around.

"He's a stubborn guy, but, in a sense, he's an affectionate guy."

Hearing this, Chen Zhen blushed, and he said angrily, "Did William ask you to tell me this?"

"No, I'm meddling in my own business, please forgive me." Meryl blinked playfully, and said again: "You must not know what the captain looked like before, it was really terrible."

"before?"

"Like a task machine, cold."
