Chapter 22 Epilogue

It would be great if the world was as simple as binary.Either 0 or 1, black and white.But it is a pity that most things are in the gray area between 0 and 1, and it is impossible to explain clearly and distinguish clearly.

The only good thing is that when he stood in the dock of the military court, he could still maintain a calm mind to face a sentence of life imprisonment.

With a clang of the hammer, his freedom ended, and he would never return to Evansted for decades to come.The planet Bastille - the prison planet used to hold serious criminals - will become his only destination in this life.

He escaped trial five years ago, and five years later, no one will lend a helping hand.

This is what he deserves.

In front of the shuttle transporting the prisoners, he looked back at the brightly lit Evansted for the last time. He was once the proud son of the First Federal Military Academy. He once entered Elite and became an elite envied by everyone. The battlefield, all of this, has long since vanished.

His blood cooled down, his dream was shattered, and he was left alone.

The collapsed tower of Saval has been replaced by a new building, and the last traces of him on the planet are gone.

Without anyone, Evansted is still running.

However, in his heart, he was not unwilling.

"Go." The guard pushed impatiently.He smiled and stepped onto the shuttle.

"Summers!" Luna Smith called to him.

"Luna?" Leonard turned around in surprise, "Why do you..."

Before the words were finished, the female officer had already punched her. Leonard let out a muffled grunt, and the smell of blood spread in his mouth.

"Come and beat you!" said the major general, "You idiot, are you thinking with your ass, and you actually dare to treason for a man?!"

Leonard looked at her angry look, but smiled instead: "Actually, you look better when you are angry than when you have a straight face, but you still look better when you are not smiling."

Luna turned her head away: "Behave well over there, watch out for your ass."

Leonard laughed even louder.

"Sir..." Eric leaned out from behind Luna timidly, looking sullen.

"Are you here too?"

"Come... see you off."

"Thank you." Leonard patted Eric on the shoulder, "Work hard, you are actually very good."

"Hmm." The adjutant still had a bitter face.

"I'm serious. Before you, I changed five or six adjutants. None of them lasted more than a month, but you worked for five years and handled everything in an orderly manner."

"This kid is very useful, really." He sincerely recommended to Luna.

"Okay." The female officer interrupted him, "That's a lot of nonsense."

"I should go, goodbye," Leonard said.

He turned around and walked towards the shuttle, his footsteps suddenly paused, and he turned his head again: "Say goodbye to him for me."

New Venice.

The silver spaceship slowly parked in the dock, officially residing on this planet whose surface is 90% ocean.

However, the first officer of the spaceship was not on board.When the captain wanted to find him, the artificial intelligence replied that the first officer had disembarked five hours ago and was now located somewhere on the beach outside the city.

"I see." Levi said, changing into the local costume - a white silk robe, buttoning a belt inlaid with sea spar, "I'll go find him. I'll leave the repairs to you and There are others."

"Okay, Captain." Lucifer bowed gracefully, and disappeared from Levi's eyes.

Levi managed to find his first mate by the rocky beach.

James did not know where to get a fishing rod and was fishing, but the bucket on the side was indeed a bucket of clear sea water, not even a small fish.

"The harvest is not good."

"Not good." The first mate wore a green robe and a straw hat on his head, looking very local.

"Fishing is a sport that requires meditation," Levi said, sitting down next to James, "and you have a lot of troubles in your heart."

James gave a dry laugh, and simply took back the fishing rod: "I don't want to catch it anymore, and I can't catch it anyway."

He put the pole aside, leaned back, and spread it flat on the rock.

The sea breeze was blowing, puffing up their loose robes, and raising the prince's long pale golden hair, and people on the other side of the beach began to wave to them friendly.

"It's my fault." James said suddenly, "Otherwise Leonard wouldn't have died."

In the public file of Lieutenant Colonel Leonard Summers, "death" has been written.

"If you are troubled by this matter, I can tell you that he is not dead and is serving his sentence in Bastille Prison." Levi said, stroking his long hair against the sea breeze, with a calm tone.

"What?!" The first mate bounced off the rock all of a sudden, his eyes opened like light bulbs, "Then why don't we rescue him right away?"

"He is avoiding me." The prince lowered his eyelashes, his expression was a little lonely, "Death and prison are better than being with me."

"That's his decision." Levi smiled, the corners of his mouth curved into a perfect arc, "I respect his decision."

James stared at his captain dumbfounded, unable to speak for a while.

He has been with Levi for several years, and he has never "respected" anyone's decision.As long as it is something you want to do, you will never hesitate, and you will never care about the consequences.

It was such an indomitable captain who stopped in front of a person's refusal.

Leonard Summers, what an amazing man.

James sighed.

He said that they were brothers, so he would never abandon her, and then he practiced this sentence with his own life.

He said that he loved Livier, and he really betrayed his faith and loyalty and fought for him. His performance on the battlefield was unparalleled.

However, such people are willing to give up their freedom and spend their entire lives imprisoned on a dirty and remote planet like the Bastille.

This again, for the promise to whom?

James thought that he would probably never understand it for the rest of his life.
