Love at Second Sight [Interstellar]

A few days later, the mind control center of the Second Army Mothership.

"Quick, make way, please come over with a guide above the second seat!" The medical soldier hurried through the crowd pushing the isolation cabin, and everyone made way for him when they saw it. Through the transparent cover, one could see the blood on the cabin's face An unconscious Sentinel.

"If this continues, the number of guides will not keep up with the speed of casualties." The captain of the fourth squadron of the guide team came to report. Before him, the captains of the sixth, fifth and second squadrons had already come to report in turn.

In the main control room of the center, facing the screen full of information, Joey slammed the table hard: "It doesn't make sense!"

In the federal army fighting against them, there are hundreds of "war machines" like the captive, each of which has the combat capability close to that of the chief. This is a serious setback for the second army. , can easily destroy a squadron's mechs, fighters and combat capabilities of soldiers in an instant.

"It's not just us. The federal army attacking in Fidekersburg and Andorra Galaxy has such a sentinel team. It is precisely because General Derling in Fidekersburg was caught off guard that he lost the first jump gate. ’” an officer reported.

Joey cast his eyes on Zhuang Yan: "Zhuang, did the admiral say anything..."

In fact, he has been under Zhou Yuchen's subordinates for many years, and he knows that if there is a countermeasure, the general will have issued an order long ago, but the current situation is really anxious. The spirit of the combined sentinel and guide is closely linked. The work situation of many guides is also not optimistic.

Zhuang Yan shook his head. Joey was inevitably disappointed, but he also knew that at this moment, he must not lose his footing first, so he cheered up and continued working.

Zhuang Yan was sitting in front of the console, facing a series of light curtains with constantly changing data, constantly collecting information from the prisoner.

Zhuang Yan re-compared the information on the prisoners of war. When the alert bell for shift change rang above his head, he got up and walked out of the main control room.

Outside the main control room is the hall of the control center, full of people who are tired, numb and at the same time strong. There are thousands of observation rooms around the hall, and each observation room has a repair cabin. When the injured sentry is sent to the repair room In the recovery cabin, his guide recorded and analyzed the sentinel's data in the observation room, and helped him "passivate" after the recovery cabin sent the person out.

Near the exit, the door of an observation room was closed, indicating that a sentinel was being treated, but the guide who was supposed to accompany him was sitting on the ground outside the door, leaning against the door with his head lowered and his face covered, his shoulders trembling, and the Quantum around him The beast is a Maine Coon cat, lying on the ground listlessly at this time, and even its body has a tendency to become transparent.

Zhuang Yan walked over and patted the guide on the shoulder, and the guide raised his head.The black panther next to Zhuang Yan appeared, walked up to the Maine Coon cat, and gently rubbed the Maine Coon cat's head. The Maine Coon cat moved its ears and looked up at it.

"It's all going to pass." Zhuang Yan put his arm on the guide's shoulder, looked at him and said, like stating a fact, but also like a promise.

He returned to his and Zhou Yuchen's suite, and there were warmed meals on the outside table. Obviously Zhou Yuchen had already returned, ate something and left.

He went to take a shower, he was the most groomed man in peacetime, but these days, he was smelling.

After taking a shower and having dinner, Zhuang Yan fell asleep as soon as he leaned on the pillow.

When I woke up again, I heard the rustling of clothes.He opened his eyes. Zhou Yuchen was standing in front of the bed, gently unbuttoning his uniform, and looked down at him: "Woke you up?"

In fact, it wasn't the sound that woke him up. He and Zhou Yuchen were combined sentinel guides, and they were very sensitive to each other's approach.

Zhuang Yan let out a "huh", turned on the wall lamp casually, and looked at Zhou Yuchen. Even Zhou Yuchen, who had been fighting and commanding non-stop for several days, would show a little fatigue, and he would not let his subordinates and soldiers see this side. , but there is no need to keep it in front of Zhuang Yan.

Looking at Zhuang Yan, Zhou Yuchen felt warmth in his eyes. He took off his coat and lay down. Zhuang Yan followed his arm and rested his head on his shoulder. The two leaned together to enjoy this moment of peace.

Zhuang Yan said: "I compared the data of the prisoners with the data of the research institute you gave me before, and the matching degree is higher than 80.00%."

"Oh?" Although Zhou Yuchen asked rhetorically, he did not show surprise. He had expected that this battle would not go well, but just because he expected it, did not mean that the problem would not be difficult.

Behind the research institute is the Langton family, and now, the polarization scheme that has been researched is used on federal soldiers.

This is treason.Anyone who understands the situation now will no longer doubt it.This war was a deal made between Langton and the enemy. Langton promised benefits, allowing the federal people to attack at the critical moment of the emperor's critical illness, making the soon-to-be-successful Crown Prince Edward beset by enemies and unable to do his best.

Zhuang Yan has been observing the prisoners' physical data for the past few days, hoping to find the weakness of this plan and suppress this special force. ——He is sure that this plan must have weaknesses, but he needs more samples and time.

And now the most lacking is time.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Yan couldn't help but immerse himself in the data. When he recovered, he saw Zhou Yuchen stroking the crease between his brows with his fingers.

"Hofstadter was talking to me about his son today."

"Huh?" Zhuang Yan was taken aback.

Hofstadt is Joey's sentinel. The couple have been together for many years and have a six-year-old son. Zhuang Yan once saw it on Joey's communicator.

"Didn't you always want a child?" Zhou Yuchen said, "A family."

Zhuang Yan looked at him and said, "What about you?" He used to look forward to a family, but after being with this person in front of him, unconsciously, he was already satisfied with his current life, even at this moment, they are all in love with each other Sleepless all night for the war.

"Me?" Zhou Yuchen turned over with a smile, hugged Zhuang Yan, buried his head on his shoulder, and said lazily, "Well... after thinking about a small thing at home, your attention will be distracted, and neither of us The space between the two of us is over, I think we can still enjoy it for a few more years."

Zhuang Yan stretched out his arms to hug him, and couldn't help but smile. With this smile, the creases between his brows relaxed. Zhou Yuchen looked at him, and leaned over to kiss him.

The two lingered for a while, a little ready to move, but they were too tired, so they leaned together again after the kiss, and the topic returned to Sentinel Polarization and the Federals. After talking for a while, they embraced and fell asleep.

In less than four hours, Zhuang Yan was awakened by the sharp alarm bell.

When he sat up, Zhou Yuchen had finished dressing, and said to him, "Qin Song's fleet is back."

Zhuang Yan's heart trembled, he got up and hurriedly dressed, "Didn't he go to garrison Yuri Star?"

The answer speaks for itself.

Zhuang Yan walked quickly on the long corridor leading to the control center——Qin Song was defeated, Yuri was captured by the Federation, and Ceres near Yuri...

Eight years ago, he and A Xu separated in the vast snowy night, and the figure of the boy driving the mech was hidden in the heavy snow. After that, he led the search and rescue team to search in the continuous snow mountains of Ceres, and finally he gave up. .It wasn't because he believed that A Xu was dead, but because he kept a little humble thought in his heart - as long as he didn't see A Xu's body, in the deepest part of his heart, A Xu seemed to be alive somewhere.

Although reason told him that this was just a delusion, Zhuang Yan was willing, willing to live with this thought forever.

He pushed open the door of the control center, and the huge inside was already busy. Joey was standing with two deputies among the guides and medical soldiers coming and going. Seeing him coming in, one of the deputies immediately reported: "The wounded More than 300 people have been graded and sent to various repair cabins."

Zhuang Yan and Joey walked into the main control room. The repair cabin can not only help the injured sentinel recover from physical trauma and isolate mental stimulation, but also quickly detect various data of the sentinel for analysis by the guides.

In the control room, a semi-circular light curtain is rapidly integrating various data and information of the current batch of wounded, and the data is scrolling rapidly on the light curtain.

While browsing the data above, Zhuang Yan asked, "How many people from Major General Qin have returned?"

"A fleet of 8000 people, only less than 800 people came back."

At the same time, the temporary meeting at the command center at the front of the mothership was also discussing this issue.

Qin Song's hair was disheveled, his expression was exhausted, there were still traces of scratched blood on his face, his military uniform was torn, and his military cap was held on his arm. He said to Zhou Yuchen, "This subordinate is weak in guarding, and is willing to bear all punishments."

"This is not a matter of punishment, Major General Qin!" Someone among the officers sternly said, "These 8000 people are the elite of the Second Army, and you were supposed to stick to Yuri Star!"

Qin Song didn't make any excuses, the command center was terribly quiet for a while, only the officer's echo, everyone knew the seriousness of losing Yuri Star, once the federal army repaired the large jump station on Yuri Star, a large number of troops could be dispatched at any time Appear in the flank of the Second Army and deal a fatal blow to it.

Zhou Yuchen stood up, with no expression of joy or anger on his face, and stood up: "Major General Qin has just returned, and the punishment will be discussed later. The most important thing now is to cut off the way for the federal people to come here."

He looked at Qin Song again: "Major General Qin, you have worked hard, go and rest for a while."

Qin Song gave a military salute and retreated.The moment he walked out of the command center, the command room erupted immediately, but all sounds were isolated from the door behind him.

In the general observation room, Zhuang Yan took the physical information of more than 300 wounded and retrieved the data of more than a dozen individuals, which were suspended on the light curtain.

The adjutant next to him said: "Fortunately, although there are many wounded, they are all light-colored numbers. Otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to assign guides to take care of them."

Zhuang Yan seemed to be unable to hear, staring at the light curtain full of data, his brows gradually wrinkled.He stretched out his hand and selected a data block of a sentinel. The sentinel was sent into the repair cabin half an hour ago. Now that the repair is almost complete, the repair cabin is about to open.

Next to the data is the image of the observation room. In the image, a guide is already waiting in the observation room. After the repair cabin completes the work and opens the barrier, he steps forward to provide spiritual counseling for the sentry.

However, just as the repair cabin was about to open, Zhuang Yan suddenly grabbed the microphone on the console and shouted: "Urgent notice, urgent notice! All observers, now turn off the automatic repair program and lock the door! Repeat, close the repair program, Lock the hatch!"

His warning came too late after all.The moment his voice fell, the door of the repair cabin that was about to be opened in the video was broken open from the inside!A figure jumped up, rushed towards the guide beside the repair cabin, and pushed him to the ground!

Shouts of panic came from the hall outside the main control room.
