nebula story

Staring blankly at his father, the longing in Chesu's eyes gradually dimmed.

Turning his head to look at the bright and cold moonlight outside the window, he said word by word: "I understand. Then let them wait."

Nodding his head, Che'an finally added lightly: "I will never force you to do this. But you have to think about one thing clearly, your biological father and sister are both on the front line - your persistence, You have to be mentally prepared for what it might bring."

Trembling all over, Chesu looked at his father in front of him. Under the familiar face was the calm pressure he was not familiar with.Looking at Che'an firmly, the despair in his heart was like the tide of the river, and his breathing suddenly became short of breath.

After a long while, he took a deep breath, his voice hoarse to the extreme: "The only thing I can do is one thing - I can tell all the design details and military secrets of the Empire's two-person mecha."

"Little Su?" Che'an was a little taken aback.

"I participated in many important designs for the new two-person mech of the empire. It was something I came up with, and I have the right to dispose of it." Chesu didn't look at his father, there was no choking in his voice, only a hoarse coldness, " By handing over this, at least the Federation's air force mechs won't be at a disadvantage in air combat because of something designed by a Federation...that's fair, right?"

Listening in amazement, Che'an didn't know how to answer the words for a while.

"As for the interstellar map, I still say the same thing—I can't do anything about it." Chesu's lips had a faint smile, bleak, "If the people in MI[-] are not willing, please ask them to take me away, try again. Lock me up for a few months."

"No, no, absolutely not." Che'an's heart tightened.

Noncommittal, the boy beside the bed looked at the sky silently for a long time.

The moonlight outside the window is as cool as water, and it is chilling.

"Father, when you think about the Federation on Lensell, do you feel that there is always hope in your heart? Because no matter how hard it is and how long it takes, you know that your hometown is waiting for you." He whispered in a very soft voice. He said, as if he was explaining to his father, or to himself, "But I can't go back... I can't go back to my hometown."

Aisiburg, the capital of the Federation Gotha Star.In a tightly guarded small military barracks beside the airport, which is connected to the direct export of foreign military power.

Using a special high-level electronic password card to open the door, a tall young man stood silently at the door.Looking at the soft-spoken young man in the middle of the lecture hall, he didn't step forward, but quietly leaned against the wall.

Sitting in a tall independent semi-enclosed compartment, the boy was wearing earphones, and his slightly hoarse voice came from the wireless microphone on his thin, blood-colored lips.

It has been more than two months since he jumped resolutely from the Ferris wheel and disappeared into the night before him.This is the first time after Nan Zhuobie sees Chesu again.

Looking from a distance, Nan Zhuo found in a daze that Chesu's face had lost too much weight, and his soft and clear voice had also changed a little, becoming less childish and bright, and more dull.When he raised his head by chance, dark eyes appeared from a few strands of hair, showing a light that Nan Zhuo was not familiar with.

Looking down at the display screen in front of him, Chesu on the podium did not notice his entry, and continued to explain the structural diagram simultaneously displayed on the light curtain behind him.

"The composition of these parts has been greatly changed compared with the original ones. The flexibility has increased, but the impact resistance has decreased. When going to war, please remember to prepare a few more spare parts... The following is its maintenance skills. In fact, in view of its The structure of the connecting part is loose, and it can be disassembled without tools in actual combat, and can be rotated manually, which can save a few tenths of a second. ——I have experienced this in actual combat." Suddenly a little dazed, the young man on the stage seemed to be in a state of confusion. A certain memory, silently sitting in front of a group of young and capable federal mechanics.

After being silent for a while, he lowered his head and continued his narration.

"Next, I will make a summary of the most common misunderstandings between the combat pilot and the mechanic when the mecha is controlled.... From my actual combat experience, once this kind of two-person mecha enters the maintenance procedure, the combat pilot will The crew will try their best to ensure a stable flying environment for the mechanics. Taking over the control of the main control chip at the first time is what our mechanics have to guarantee."

His hoarse voice was transmitted to the ears of every student mechanic through a loudspeaker with good sound quality, and there was no sound at all.The young soldiers were nervously taking notes with the stylus in their hands, not daring to miss a word.

Although the military did not clearly identify Chesu, no one really did not know the mysterious origin of this young man.

The Internet, the folks, and the media have already exploded!Not long ago, the online speech made by the first heir to the empire and the front-line president, Marshal Fern, spread all over the federal network in the first place.The photo of the young prisoner of war that the imperialists were eager to get back also firmly occupied the headlines of major newspapers.

Some of the secrets that had been covered up extremely tightly were exposed more and more at the tip of the iceberg.What made the military completely powerless was the last resort chase in the subway shopping mall more than a month ago.Countless people witnessed the missing person announcement and saw the photo of Chesu released by the imperial people, and they could almost recall it. Yes, it was the young man with a beautiful face that was unforgettable at first sight!

Reminiscent of the weirdness after the hunt, the sensitive media finally discovered the existence of Nanzhuo. Chesu's status as a prisoner of the empire, even if the military still kept silent, it was no secret. secret.

What made the public and the media most dissatisfied and confused was the military's attitude towards this imperial prisoner.He categorically denied its existence and refused to respond to any media inquiries. Facing the repeated questioning by the people of the Fisher star empire on the front line, the top military and political leaders of the Federation remained silent and denied it strangely.

……

And it wasn't until these few days that these mechanics who began to receive special secret training suddenly realized that they knew the inside story and secrets that few people knew.

I see! ——This young imperial prisoner has surrendered, and now he is helping to train the mechanics of the newest federal mechs, and judging from his professional knowledge, he should be the core of a deep understanding of the design of the imperial mechas.

No wonder our Federation has been unwilling to hand over this prisoner!

All the people who were transferred to receive this group of secret special training had been issued a strict password-sealed order in advance.Although they didn't dare to ask their superiors about something, almost everyone had already guessed what was going to happen next.

The federal military has also been working overtime to trial-produce the latest generation of two-person mechas, which are even more practical and powerful than the Imperial models!It is also equipped with instant maintenance and also emphasizes the cooperation of two people, but there is a new improvement in the integration of the main chip.

Compared with the previous situation of being suppressed and beaten by the imperialists in the air, it can almost be concluded that that situation is definitely gone forever, and even completely reversed the defeat!

At such a critical moment, how important is an imperial prisoner who is familiar with the secrets of the imperial mecha design and has the identity of the captain of the imperial imperial mechanized team.Even if the imperial people are in a hurry and don't drain all the value from this imperial mechanic, how can the federal military let him go back? !

……

Looking down at his watch, the man leaning against the wall silently exited the door and walked into the bathroom not far away.

Silently looking at himself in the mirror, Nan Zhuo began to tidy up his somewhat casual military appearance.After buttoning the top button of the military uniform, and brushing off the dust that didn't exist on his shoulders, he remembered Chesu's appearance on the podium.

Not wearing a military uniform... just the simplest white clothes, lined with a handsome face without any blood, like a young student next door, who is growing up and is a little melancholy because of his youth.

He'd never agree to wear a Confederate uniform, would he?Looking at his rare standard military appearance in the mirror, Nan Zhuo suddenly irritatedly punched the black and shiny marble countertop.

Standing alone by the sink, he let the cold water stimulate his face.Dejectedly, he took out a cigarette, and lightly lit it.

It wasn't until the flickering cigarette butt was burned out that he heard a small noise coming from outside.Someone was walking towards this side, not wanting to go out, so Nan Zhuo got into the partition door of a bathroom.

The door of the restroom was pushed open, and several students came in talking and laughing, and their conversations were clearly audible.

The sound of "squeaking" water came, mixed with the unique loud voice of young people.

"I'm exhausted, I'm exhausted, but I can't take it anymore!"

"Who said it wasn't? I was going to collapse when I memorized those parameter sheets a few days ago." A student's voice was bitter.

Frowning, Nan Zhuo looked through the crack of the door.

A short student with a head of blond hair murmured to his hands by the pool: "Hey, do you think the Imperials are messing with us? How can there be a training method for people to memorize such a complete set of parts parameters? They are not child prodigies! "

The tall man next to him nodded again and again: "I see it too, it's obvious that we are being punished."

Glancing at them sideways, another student curled his lips: "What is he doing to us?"

"Caught by our federation, willing to surrender... Tell me, did you suffer enough?" the short blond man said in a low voice, "In the end, he had to be our trainer. resentment?"

After a while, another person whispered: "Yes, you see, what he taught us was always a hammer here and a stick there, and it was completely unsystematic. It feels like he just said something casually when he thought of it. Ordinarily He is the captain of the Imperial Mechanical Repair Team, how could he be like this with the systematic training he has received?"

Nan Zhuo in the bathroom turned a little cold.

The short blond young man shrugged his shoulders: "The pariahs of the empire have been severely brainwashed, and there are too many examples of suicide and self-explosion once they are captured. Otherwise, why has the war been going on for so long, and our Federation has never been able to get a complete A sample of the Imperial Mecha?——It is rare for him to capture a prisoner of war alive at this level. Since he failed to kill himself immediately, he must have suffered too much. "

"No way." The student beside him frowned, "Being kind to prisoners of war is a must in the interstellar war treaty."

After a moment of silence, the short man raised his eyebrows slightly: "Forget I didn't say anything."

Several students in the restroom looked at each other and fell silent.

After a long while, someone finally muttered: "Forget it, this imperial man is too pitiful... There is nothing he can do about being a traitor at such a young age."

"Bang!" The compartment door behind them was slammed open, and Nan Zhuo walked out with a cold face.

"Shut up, everyone." He stared at everyone with angry eyes, "You guys know nothing!"

Startled by him, several students looked at his military rank epaulettes in amazement, and quickly reflected Nan Zhuo's identity in their minds!

Recently, it has become one of the protagonists of mysterious revelations among the people and the media. The iconic short brown hair, the former battalion commander of the Federal Elite Flying Battalion, and Colonel Nan Zhuo who appeared on the list of dead soldiers more than a year ago!

That is, the federal hero who disappeared together with the imperial mechanic, returned to his hometown a year later, and captured this important imperial prisoner with his own hands!

Several students reluctantly gave a military salute: "Sir!"

Why did Colonel Nanzhuo reprimand people inexplicably?Still so rude!

Walking silently to the sink, Nan Zhuo took a handful of cold water and splashed it on his face.Turning his head, a string of cold drops dripped from his forehead.

Silently staring at the group of students, he said: "Listen carefully to every word of Teacher Chesu, and rest assured to focus on study and training instead of these nonsense and groundless speculations. I am not a woman, chewing behind my back." Such nonsense gossip!"

The short young man in front of him flushed slightly, and poked his neck in shame and anger: "Sir, your words are too much."

Looking at him with a sneer, Nan Zhuo straightened his spine: "Oh, what's too much?"

"We're not chewing on gossip, we're telling the truth."

Nan Zhuo's eyes were extremely strange.Looking around at the young faces, he said coldly: "Facts? What do you know is the real truth? Those speculations on the Internet, or rumors fermented in the army?"

Staring fiercely into the eyes of the short blond student in front of him, he said word by word: "The person who teaches you on stage, the most indispensable thing is backbone." His voice dimmed a bit, and he said, "So Put away your sympathy and contempt, he doesn't need it."

The faces of several students were a bit unconvinced.Finally, someone retorted in a low voice: "Bones? Just a prisoner of the empire. To their empire, he is nothing but a traitor after all, isn't he?"

Looking at him viciously, Nan Zhuo clenched his fists suddenly, took a step forward and said, "Traitor? Say it again?!"

The slightly closed door of the bathroom was slowly pushed open, and several students inadvertently looked there, but they were all stunned.With a move in his heart, he suddenly turned his head, and Nan Zhuo stared blankly at the slender and lonely familiar figure at the door.
