calm down.

Yes, Kalilian actually wanted to get acquainted with everyone, otherwise he wouldn't bother to remember everyone's appearance, name and research direction.Bancroft, too, was delighted that he finally seemed to be doing the right thing.

After the researchers finished toasting, Lieutenant Amanda Deren, the administrator, came forward. She wore gold-rimmed eyes and her hair was combed meticulously. "Happy birthday to you, Major Turner."

"Thank you, beautiful Ms. De Lun, I still need your care in the future."

During the toast that followed, unexpectedly, Kalilian seemed to know every administrative staff member, and when it was the turn of the logistics staff, he never missed a name.

Bancroft: "..."

Can it be done to this extent?Until now, Bancroft couldn't address everyone without making mistakes, and Kalilian hadn't spoken to these people at all, but he was able to recognize them all?

The atmosphere gradually warmed up. The seemingly stern officer recognized everyone and brought everyone an unexpected surprise. More and more people dared to ask him for a drink, and Kalilian never refused a glass of wine.

When the alcohol kicks in, people start to say things they might regret in the future.

Charlie Mize hooked Kalilian's shoulder, "Major Turner, you are much easier to get along with than the legends say. In fact, when they knew that I would come to your laboratory, all my classmates expressed sympathy for me. Because you are really not a person who is good at creating a good atmosphere, and your research is so unpopular, I once thought that my future would not have a bright future, but luckily you are not what they said."

Kalilian frowned slightly, but he didn't pull him away, but silently drank the red wine that was filled again at some point, "Is that so, there is such a story, I'm glad you didn't really have bad luck , although it seems that maybe you will tomorrow."

Carol pushed him away, and then hugged the major's shoulder affectionately, "Sir, don't pay attention to that drunk. Do you really think my hypothesis is interesting? Before this, they all thought it was useless garbage, hell Go, those stupid old men! How can it be useless to explore the possibilities of existence, how can they predict what the future will require? How many possibilities have been killed by these arbitrary judgments, this is simply the saddest loss!"

Calilian smiled slightly, "I don't see any difference between you and Charlie, maybe I'll change my mind if you'd like to take a nap."

Kavela laughed when she heard the words, "Yeah, not many people realize the value of our laboratory. If it succeeds, it will be able to use stellar energy. The last time someone did this was in 2000 Before, it’s exciting to think about it! If we do that, we can even break the monopoly of that family, well, you should know which family I’m talking about, everyone calls them the watchdog of energy.”

Kalilian drank the wine Kavela handed over, and said to her in a low voice, "My lovely lady, please don't spread such remarks out of the laboratory, I don't want anyone to come to you for these few jokes of yours. Trouble."

Kavela's eyes widened, "How can this be a joke, I hate those people very much, you must not imagine how many methods they used to force an innocent small mine to death! And the small mine before that How much effort was spent in order to survive the war..." Kavela said here, emotionally, her eyes flushed, "My parents, how helplessly closed the mine in the end, it was their painstaking efforts for the past forty years... "

Kalilian patted her on the shoulder comfortingly, "I'm sorry to hear this..."

"If the research is really successful, will there be no need to fight the Federation anymore?" Daisy Cross, a girl with a baby face, asked timidly, "Before I came here, I heard someone talk about However, this research can solve the energy problem, and the Federation is fighting us because of this, isn't it?"

Kalilian didn't answer, his lips were tightly closed, and he silently looked out of the porthole. The gray-black chaos was like an unknowable future.

He didn't know how to answer the simplest question of the logistician.And once he was silent, everyone gradually fell silent.The shadow of war hangs over everyone, and they have lost something because of the war.

After a long time, Amanda finally broke the silence, "Yes, if the energy problem can be solved, then the war can be stopped for a while. No one likes a cruel battlefield, and I believe the people of the Federation are the same."

Karelian looked up at her, expressionless.

"My husband is also on the front line. Before I made the jump, I had the last conversation. They are about to go to Dundo Lanbo Star. I am also very worried about him." Amanda lowered her head slightly when she said this, this shrewd and capable There was a hint of sadness in the lady's eyes, "I hope we can talk again after the transition is over."

Like happy emotions, depression and sadness are equally contagious. Linda also said to herself melancholy, "It would be great if there were no wars. Without wars, there would be no energy control. You can go wherever you want without having to face When it comes to life and death, you don't have to worry about it all the time, you can do whatever research you want..."

Louis Hendry also echoed in a low voice: "You don't have to pay such high taxes, you can own your own land, and you don't have to worry about military service..."

"There will be more freedom."

"Yeah, it would be nice if there was no war..."

It was unclear when the reception ended, and Kalilian refused to be accompanied by Bancroft, left the meeting room alone, and headed for the central control room.

He walked into the central control room, sat in his exclusive leather sofa, and silently looked at the screen composed of 22 surveillance images.

After sitting quietly for a long time, he deleted the surveillance video of the day.

"What exactly do I want to do?" Kalilian had deep confusion in his eyes. He knew that he had to find out the answer, because he led 34 other people, and he could no longer simply act willfully for the original purpose.

Through today's conversation, he felt uneasy about his past plans. Yes, he didn't have any great feelings at first, he was just doing it for profit and for small revenge, but now this kind of thinking made him have Ashamed, he couldn't disappoint everyone's expectations without caring, he couldn't let others down as if nothing had happened.

"Yeah, it would be nice if there was no war..."

In fact, Kalilian is not alone at this moment. Bancroft is standing outside the door of the central control room. He is waiting for Kalilian to open the door, invite him in or come out by himself, but he waited for three After 10 minutes, the door of the central control room did not open, and remained closed.Bancroft leaned against the door and smiled slightly.He knew that Kalilian had always been a soft-hearted person. Although Gallion had always disliked him, Bancroft had seen the cold-faced major's eyes become soft unconsciously. He could not be as cold and selfish as he imagined. people.

And that's why Bancroft likes him.

Because of this, Bancroft didn't think it was necessary to repeat the conversation with Galion that day to Kalilian, he would understand.
