Be careful from the male insect [Interstellar]

Here's a question that most females don't get a chance to think about:

If a male suddenly stops what he is doing and stares at you intently, what might he be thinking?

Ryan decided to skip this question, anyway, no matter what Xiongzi was thinking, it was impossible to simply want to see himself.

So he tried not to surprise the other party as much as possible and reminded him whether it was time to look back at the mechanical heart.

However, as soon as he raised his head, he met a dozen other pairs of curious little eyes.

Insects: Gaze·jpg

Why do you feel that the atmosphere just now was a bit strange?

Ryan: "..."

:)

Under the pressure of the major general's eyes, the research bugs immediately withdrew their gazes and focused on sticking to the glass cover instead. Because the glass cover was not wide enough, many of them had to stack up on top of each other, and those standing behind had to stand on tiptoes and look up.

Having received the prompt accurately, Aiwen, who quickly refocused, has covered his hot left face with his gloved left hand, and even thoughtfully put the metal of the mechanical arm The rack went up a little more.

In fact, he doesn't have to do this, because as soon as his movements stop, many small cameras of special materials will hang down outside the glass cover, and the 360° surrounding glass cover will take a set of photos for Ivan's mechanical arm wrapped in the mechanical heart. Research in the future.At the same time, the military females who were still noisy before also focused on observing the connection between the mechanical heart and the mechanical arm as carefully as possible, while whispering and taking notes.

The volume of the mechanical arm is too large after deployment. Even with a support point, maintaining this form for too long is a load on the holder's body.Ryan observed secretly, and when he saw Aiwen put down his left hand that had been clasped on his face for some reason, and was about to change to a more comfortable position, he made a decisive decision:

"The last minute."

Research bugs take notes faster.

Under the majestic gaze of the major general, it took them only 4 minutes to announce the end of work. The small cameras flew back to their original positions, and a blue light flashed in the glass cover, indicating that the observation was over.Ivan put the robotic arm back, put it into the glove, greeted the silent research bugs in the room, and followed Ryan out like a tail.

Sauron followed closely behind.

The Major General went out at the same speed as when they came in, but there was no sound in the room for a while, only the cameras that had automatically finished taking pictures began to automatically transmit and operate.A bug that was obviously older and didn't speak just now walked to the processor on the other side of the glass cover and began to accept the file seriously.His name is Milton, and he is the leader of this group of young research bugs.

"Quiet!" he yelled. "Come on, now we're going to get down to business."

He yelled this at a very inappropriate time, and it was also very unfair, because the insects were still immersed in shock, as quiet as a group of ants.However, when he shouted, all of them immediately came back to their senses, and they were more willing to express their feelings than to respond to the words of the research team leader.As soon as Milton finished speaking, a burst of excited and chaotic discussions erupted in the originally quiet room.

Milton: "..."

Fortunately, the research worms are all from formal training. Although they like to make noise, they don't particularly violate discipline.While continuing to chatter in ever-decreasing voices, they gathered around the empty glass cover together, taking out their optical brains by the way.

Milton pressed the last button, and the image that had just been shot was immediately stereoscopically projected.

The main worm of the mechanical arm has already left, but the stretched mechanical image has been reconstructed in the glass cover, perfectly showing all the details.

The research bugs looked quickly at the glass cover.

Then write on the optical brain virtual screen at the fastest speed.

Then compare the data.

Then think hard.

Then repeat the above steps.

Finally, they looked up together and looked at Milton.

Milton nodded approvingly.

All the insects said in unison: "It's a strange reaction!"

When the research bugs gathered to study the scanned mechanical heart, Ivan had already followed Ryan happily strolling around in the barracks.His daily schedule is very loose, and most of the time he has nothing to do except be arranged to go back to the dormitory to sleep.Now they are walking on the path back to Aiwen's dormitory, nodding with other military females passing by.

Sauron had already left, so they were the only two worms walking slowly along the road when no worm passed by.

"They are all very professional research bugs." Ryan said, "I believe the results will come out soon. Not surprisingly, within seven days, we can conduct a decomposition experiment to officially peel off the mechanical heart. By then , I will personally see you off."

When he just spoke, Ai Wen briefly revealed his starry eyes.

But now he can only lower his head and kick the pebbles: "Okay." QAQ

Going back to Star Tobias should be a happy thing. After all, although Aiwen is full of curiosity about the outside world, he still feels homesick after being away for so long.However, he secretly glanced at Ryan next to him. Although he knew that this teenage boy's superficial love affair would definitely end without a problem, he still couldn't help but feel a little bit reluctant before that.

"Will you pass by Tobias again?" he asked.

Ryan noticed the depression of the male next to him, and after a moment of silence, he calmed down:

"possible."

It shouldn't be.

However, Ivan was not appeased, because he suddenly remembered that passing by was useless: Holden's residence was in the far north, and there was no pier there.

So, in another seven days, there will be nothing left.

Ai Wen didn't know if other adolescent males were so prone to depression.He shook his head, trying to drive away the rather unsuitable melancholy on him, and at the same time heard Ryan ask:

"Also, have you heard about the Federal Male Protection Act?"

Ivan tried: "No. Is it like the Wildlife Protection Act? Or the Universal Basic Insect Rights Protection Act?"

Ryan said no.

"Then what's so special about it?"

Ryan stopped.

"What's special about it," he said slowly, "maybe even if you leave here, you will never return to your home on Tobias Star."

Evan also stopped now.

At first he showed a very confused expression, as if although they all spoke the common federal Zerg language, together, he couldn't quite understand what Ryan was talking about.It seems to him that there is no third place where he can stay for a long time between Tobias' home and Serbia's military camp.

All in all, if Aiwen is an instrument, he may have started reporting errors by now.

But he is not an instrument, so he asked:

"why?"

Ryan turned his head away and continued walking, "Because after everything is settled, I need to report your male status to the Federation."

Ai Wen hurriedly followed, "Will they prevent me from going home?"

"Only the main star can be the home of the males."

Ivan showed that expression that looked like a machine reporting an error again.

"I don't understand." He said, "All the bugs I've known since I was a child are on Tobias Star, and Holden has even scouted out where I'm going to work when I go back."

"Work?"

"Doing mechanical repairs or something in a department store factory, and delivering express boxes as a part-time job. ... Anyway, I can't imagine any other place that is "my home" except Tobias star. I only see it on the map Over the main star, it has nothing to do with me."

Ryan looked eager to say something about the work of couriers and mechanics, but his lips moved and he just said:

"But you're a male, and that's the whole reason."

Ivan hates Ryan always emphasizing "male bug" in a strange tone.He decides to stop liking him for 5 minutes.

But this does not prevent him from continuing to ask the bottom line: "Isn't the male worm a worm? Why do you say that, I sound so much like a federal collection wandering in the universe, the kind that should be returned to the original owner and handed over to the main star?"

"You may not be used to it for a while, and you don't understand it." Ryan's voice was as gentle as ever, "But I think your female father may have similar considerations in choosing you. In my opinion, he didn't really want you To be... a courier and a mechanic."

"But that factory is very short of worms, and all the worms have to deliver express for them during the rest time."

"...your room is here."

Ivan raised his head reluctantly, looked towards the stairs in front, said goodbye to Ryan and walked in.

Ryan watched him close the door and was about to leave when the door suddenly opened again.

Aiwen poked his head out pitifully:

"I've only been up for two hours. Do you really want me to stay in this room where I can't do anything but sleep?"
