It's too late to marry a cat [Interstellar]

"Because of you" is like an advance notice, the content ends abruptly at the most tantalizing place, after which Yahuiquan fell into a self-serving silence, his eyes still fell on the cat, as if from the cat Seeing through his body, he was looking at a certain place in his memory.

The cat didn't urge him, just quietly accompanied him.

Until Yahuiquan's hand tightened after a brief awakening.

"...The architectural image in the model is restored by combining data and technology." Yahuiquan said, he directly skipped the previous "accusation".

The projection of the building is hidden in the deep blue of the sea, and it is surrounded by shadows.

With the joint efforts of cultural commissioners and technicians, they have been restored to their original appearance, and the ancient carvings on the magnificent dome and colonnades have been meticulously engraved.

Even if the ambient brightness is not high at the moment, it can be seen that this place must have been beautiful in the heyday of the past, with a unique style that is different from the land world.

But the scene that Ya Huiquan saw with his own eyes was not like this.

In addition to not having so much light, this place is even more dilapidated, with signs of ruin and decay everywhere.

"When we fell, we smashed through the outer protective cover... Yes, it's a bit impolite to say it." Ya Huiquan was hit by the head of the cat that suddenly straightened up, and he regarded it as the only audience." Feelings after listening to it”, adding introspection words, “Two uninvited guests rushed into a ruins rashly, and did the demolition work as soon as they came up. If it wasn’t for the current wind direction that is heading towards Shining Wings and special forces, others would like to sell it. In the special report, I don’t think Qing Yishui praised us as the ‘No.1 Discovery of Ruins’ and ‘Excavator of Alien Civilization’. We will probably turn into ‘Destroyers of Precious Monuments’. The media can drive heated discussions among the public. Ten days and half a month."

Yahuiquan smiled as he talked, and he accidentally changed the topic, and extended it along the "public discussion": "After a while of public discussion, the topic gradually changed from 'On the trampling of lost civilizations by cruel wars' to "Peace has come, is it still necessary to continue to vigorously develop armaments at this time?" As long as the wind direction of public opinion is good, and people with good intentions just add fuel to the flames, the financial meeting will be held in the next quarter, and the proposal to reduce military expenditure will ensure that the support rate will increase. Some people wish to reduce military expenditures and limit the development of multiple independent fortresses, including Glorious Wings."

"Thus, the parliament can logically reclaim the fortress with too much autonomy during the war, from restricting development to restricting the generals' right to speak, weakening the power of governance, and finally letting go. As for whether to kill the donkey or not, it depends on whether the donkey is sensible or not , can you see the situation clearly in time and do something 'sensible'."

The cat's chubby head was lightly pressed against the man's jaw, and Li Dandan purred from his throat.

It doesn't sound like the kind of purr that cats have when they are in a good mood, it's a bit fierce.

Yahuiquan turned his head away a little, avoiding the dense fluff sweeping across his neck, and he pushed Li Dandan away calmly by rubbing the cat's head.

"It's a bit biased." His voice paused as he tilted his head. "However, this is something that hasn't happened yet. The other party has made such preparations, but it seems that the progress is not going well."

Because the war has just passed, the memory of the public has not faded so fast, and the damaged ecological capsule of Commander Woxiu is still on display in the Peace Memorial Museum, where it is admired by people every day. Glory Wings and the special forces cooperate again, involving projects It is also the core of natural disasters related to the public safety of both parties.

The glory of the hero will not fade so early.

"If the wind direction really changes, guess who will scold me more or scold him more?" Ya Huiquan pinched Li Dandan's ear again. His question was just a whim when he was returning to the topic, and he also hesitated after asking. ponder.

Generally speaking, people prefer to pour dirty water on the dead, because the dead can't get up again and speak for themselves.

But sometimes, people also prefer the dead, a person who may not have heard of it in the past, just because the other person is dead, people read a few words about his life, read two articles whose authenticity is questionable, Then, thousands of miles away, he would regard him as his "spiritual best friend whom he had never met in life", and suddenly began to love and admire him.

What's more, Wo Xiu is not an unknown person.

There is no need for indirect biographical introductions and articles. The special forces must be very supportive of the commander, and even the extraterritorial alliance will not let go of the glorious general.

and so……

"Maybe I still have more." Ya Huiquan said.

He came to a conclusion, but he didn't seem to care about it. The cat raised his eyes to see his expression, and found that he really thought the result was good.

"Meow——" Li Dandan slightly elongated her voice, her cry was soft and deep.

"Are you trying to comfort me, refute me, or fight against injustice?" Ya Huiquan didn't understand, and his ability to connect with cat language was temporarily offline again, but this did not prevent him from reaching out and lightly touching the cat's chin with his fingertips. Scratch it lightly.

"I have a bad temper, and it's not once or twice that I openly show my face in the parliament building. The articles that criticize me can add up to be published. I don't care about this." He said, "If the parliament really cuts military spending drastically, Restricting normal development, asking the technical department to beg for food is just a joke. A group of them have not yet realized it. What is the use of fools who think that everything can still be treated according to the standard of wartime preferential treatment? Beggars are less than a few mouthfuls, and I will bring them myself Gun to knock on the door of the Finance Office."

Anyway, with his reputation and his impolite manner, it's not surprising that he did anything.

He clearly knows that there are covetous eyes and temptation traps under the calm situation, but he still goes his own way and is high-profile and conceited.

There are some things that Yahuiquan can't say clearly to others, not even his own many years old subordinates.

But the cat understood.

Li Dandan realized that General Ya was consciously turning himself into a symbolic character.

He speaks what others dare not say, and he does what others dare not do.

If it succeeds, it means that everyone's interests are guaranteed, and those who stir up trouble in the dark can't use their hands and feet, and they can't achieve their goals for a long time.

In the event of an unfortunate failure, all the firepower will be attracted by this high-profile live target, and he is the only one who will be pushed down by concentrated forces based on the "excellent tradition" that the Star Alliance Council likes to whitewash peace.

The old subordinates who have been in close contact with him may be implicated and there will be a period of surveillance, but the chief is notoriously difficult to deal with, and he never pretends to his subordinates. Everyone just obeys the order and deployment. Who can catch them all the time? What's wrong?

Such a big Glorious Wing, the six departments cooperate with each other, and the functions of the six wings have been adjusted many times by the hands of Ya Huiquan. If he is replaced as the first person in charge, the operation of the fortress will not stop, and the defense of the star will not be deployed. There is a vacancy in the core area.

Yahuiquan is all right.

He looks arrogant and has no taboos, but he is also mad at the boundaries, and has no scruples in the well-thought-out area.

The sneering words did not reach Wo Xiu, and in Wo Xiu's eyes, the evil deeds and evils accused by others were like drizzle in mid-spring, blowing on his heart and body with the wind, without leaving any marks.

However, the cat who figured out the cause and effect almost had a heart attack.

Wo Xiu was pissed off by General Ya when he didn't intentionally mock him.

"I remember that the colorful life experience coupon I gave out is not the admission ticket for the post-war chapter of the sequel to the Lone Wolf dungeon, right?" Wo Xiu thought.

He was so angry that he doubted himself, thinking that he had accidentally left some "buff" for Yahuiquan.

...fuck, is the blessing he left behind before he left a reverse curse?

He still has this talent, why didn't he know it in the past?

The cat scowled.

But felines don’t have many facial muscles, and the natural “expression management” that was so fortunate last time showed its disadvantages again this time.

Wo Xiu objectively evaluated his tiger face - he felt that it was no different from Li Dandan's usual expression.

Moreover, the tiger deliberately put on a tiger face, and this behavior is like a cross talk actor.

Wo Xiu: "..."

Li Dandan moved his ears, gave up relying on his face to express his anger, and pulled out the ears of the plane.

After Yahuiquan finished speaking, his thoughts turned to one side, and he was thinking about something while stroking the cat. When people felt that the cat’s ears seemed to be not right, and the feeling was different from the usual, the first reaction was that it was his own problem. I mistakenly thought it was pressed by my own hand.

He was about to look down—

Before Yahuiquan could see it clearly, the cat struggled for a second, then put its ears back.

Ya Huiquan, who lowered his head, didn't see anything wrong with Li Dandan's ears, and became more and more sure that he had crushed the cat just now, and even touched the fur on the back of the cat's ears twice as compensation.

Wo Xiu: "..."

It's not because he didn't want this person to turn around and find that his cat was "inexplicably" angry after he had finished his heart-to-heart conversation.

People who are used to self-enclosed, when they try to open up to the outside world, the process is slow and difficult, and they will withdraw urgently at the slightest sign of negative feedback, so if Wo Xiu is very angry, he can only react with anger Go back quickly, relax your expression, prick your ears—and be careful not to blow your hair.

Then he said nicely, "Meow."

Don't touch your ears, touch yourself, the cat is fine, it's just mad at the way you "experience life"... Sigh.

But the cat's inner monologue cannot be heard by humans.

At first, Yahuiquan wanted to talk about architecture, but he changed the topic halfway, only he himself knew it, and he changed the subject temporarily, because it was appropriate for the topic to diverge, and there was another reason.

——Also in order to change the mood.

His cat and his memories unexpectedly cooperated tacitly. When he reviewed the memory fragments that happened in the deep sea ruins, the cat would just get close, straighten up and playfully arch his chin. This action made the cat inevitably jump from his neck. Rubbing on it, it aroused sensory residues from two levels of reality and spirit.

If he didn't think of something serious enough to let his brain be occupied by serious business, Ya Huiquan couldn't think of how else he could deal with this situation.

He really didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the day at home.

Moreover, the person who witnessed the embarrassment was his own cat. If he did it again, he would really doubt himself whether he had been closed for too long, and he was really suspected of becoming a pervert.

Unaware that cats are also in need of a change of mood, people calm their heartbeats and calm their brains, which are too easy to arouse their senses.

Afterwards, Yahuiquan took the cat and finally browsed through the entire ancient building complex in the deep sea ruins.

He and Wo Xiu smashed someone else's protective cover back then. Although the protective cover was a defective product in disrepair, fortunately, when it was first constructed, its creators gave it a set of self-repairing The regenerative system, and the cycle of energy is completed by itself, without the need for external force.

Therefore, it has been in disrepair for a long time, and the buildings under its shelter have been abandoned for many years. There is no resident underneath who needs its care, and it is still operating in obscurity, preserving the last traces of this lost civilization.

He also generously accepted the uninvited guests, and didn't care about the demolition of Yahuiquan and Woxiu as soon as they arrived.

The protective cover worked diligently to repair itself, prevented the influx of sea water, automatically balanced the pressure and supplied oxygen, provided a temporary shelter for the two "thug" visitors, and was "crowded" by them .

Woxiu found the supporting components in the abandoned ruins by pondering the regeneration mechanism of the protective cover, and then tried his best to rescue it in the face of Yahuiquan's questioning eyes, and finally gradually questioned and supported in Yahuiquan, while supporting and disgusting With the cooperation of the team, they restored the first set of energy, followed by the first set of circular power, and then the temporary base had lighting and temperature control, and they were able to go to further areas.

"Huh?" Ya Huiquan suddenly uttered a questioning syllable after browsing the architectural images. He adjusted the parameters of the environment simulation, and quickly rewound the images he had seen before replaying them at double speed.

After making sure he hadn’t missed it, the projection data of the ruins seemed to be missing. Ya Huiquan stretched out the long arm of the model’s packaging gift box, re-read the slogan “Perfectly restore the whole picture of the ruins” printed on the packaging, and twisted it. Between eyebrows: "The space at the bottom of the spiral corridor has been removed?"

The "spiral corridor" in his mouth is a long downward corridor in the ruins that rotates downward. Looking at it from the top, it looks like a hole with a small diameter, which is easy to give people a sense of cramped and deep.

But it's not actually scary.

The spiral corridor is more like a "cultural corridor" for the former residents of the deep sea.

There are reliefs and faded paintings on its walls, and some rare and vague characters are engraved on it-the local characteristic language used by the aborigines.

Together with the text, these relief paintings record the history of the change of this race.

And the promenade goes all the way to the bottom, which is a small platform-like place, with two aisles extending to both sides, and there seems to be room at the end.

But back then, Yahuiquan and Wo Xiu only reached the platform, and they couldn't get close to the end area.

Because the place that can barely be called the "entrance" is covered with a variety of barnacles, which are specific to living creatures that approach, and will eagerly stick to people.

What kind of area is under the spiral corridor and what is the space at the end of the corridor? This is an unsolved mystery to Yahuiquan back then. It is a rare place that he and Wo Xiu have not explored.

Now, the relics on Xiaohuangxing have been developed, and I also got a model that is said to be a perfect replica. The entire relic building complex has been repaired by technology. What the bottom of the corridor looks like can be regarded as a gap in the past.

But it's very strange, the space at the bottom of the spiral corridor was "cut" directly.

The model didn't make this part at all.

"What kind of perfect replica is this?" Ya Huiquan was very angry after confirming the situation. A shadow of doubt flashed across his mind. His intuition was wrong, and soon, the shadow was covered by sleepiness. He just noticed the time and realized something was wrong. early.

Yahuiquan patted him and stayed on the chair with him for a long time, like a cat watching a projection: "Let's go, go to sleep. If you are interested in the ruins, I will release it next time when I find time."

The cat came back to his senses and gave him a very gentle cry.

If Yahuiquan hadn't been drowsy at this time, and he had been more awake, he might have found that his cat was looking in the same direction as him before he patted it back to consciousness, and was also looking at the obviously flawed cat. spiral corridor.

People who have never been to Xiaohuangxing and witnessed the ruins with their own eyes should not know the difference between the spiral corridor in the model and the real one.

Cats shouldn't even know.

However, Yahuiquan was really sleepy, and he wouldn't be very vigilant about his cat.

This night, there was far more than this one thing that he ignored.

Wo Xiu waited until he confirmed that Yahuiquan was fast asleep. The cat quietly opened its eyes, briefly withdrew from the human's embrace, and quickly stretched out a pair of arms from the side. After quietly transforming, he returned to the human's side. The adults also moved behind them to maintain the lightness and silence of the cat family, lying down next to the person without a trace.

And carefully carried the sleeping person into his arms.

"Finally waiting for you to fall asleep." Wo Xiu, who had been waiting for almost a whole night, said heartily.

He still sighed inwardly.

The idea of ​​giving Ya Huiquan a hug came from Wo Xiu when he heard this person say "one more this one".

Even after that, he was almost injured by the "internal fire" for a while, and his internal organs were almost burned by the suppressed emotions.

But at the moment when he was most annoyed, he still wanted to hug this person.

Finally, the other party finally fell asleep, and when it was time for his "limited transformation time in the middle of the night", Wo Xiu touched and hugged him in the dark, listening to Yahuiquan's breathing rhythm, and traced it inch by inch under weak light each other's face.

This kind of "late-night restriction" reminded him of some fairy tales for no reason—for example, when you wake up quietly after midnight, you can see the toys at home come to life, or that magical creatures can only transform after midnight.

Combining himself with Yahuiquan and fairy tales, I somehow got Wo Xiu's laugh.

Obviously it was his own thought, but he couldn't help laughing for a while.

He still kept quiet, his laughter stuffed in his chest.

But at a very close distance, maybe even the ups and downs of the chest can be conveyed to another person.

It can even disturb people alive.

Yahuiquan's breathing frequency changed slightly suddenly, his eyelashes trembled, and the eyeballs under his thin eyelids moved slightly.

Then, he began to open his eyes—

Wo Xiu: "..."

Wo Xiu: "........."

The big thing is not good, people seem to wake up!

But this time he hugged him stronger than last time, and it seemed that it was too late to withdraw his arms and turn into a cat again!

Yahuiquan woke up in the middle of a dream, and he vaguely felt the body temperature and breathing from behind.

But under the premise that he has just reviewed his memory with models and environment simulators, and has had similar scenes in his dreams and memories, body temperature and breathing, even if they have such a clear sense of existence, did not immediately arouse his vigilance reaction.

He is still hovering on the boundary between dream and reality, and he doesn't even know which scene he will see when he opens his eyes.

So he wanted to open his eyes to confirm...

An arm suddenly came across, as if the people behind were also "awakened".

Wo Xiu was quick-witted, and put his arm in front of Yahuiquan's eyes, displaying his ten-level fine acting skills of repeatedly jumping between "Wo Xiu" and "Le Dan Dan" every day.

He uttered a very lifelike sleepy tone, preemptively, covered his eyes and asked, "Why did you wake up? There are still two hours before the lighting supply, so you are not going to sleep now?"

Yahuiquan: "..."

Ya Huiquan's consciousness fluctuated between reality and dreaming. He was not awake at first, but when he was blinded by the confident and sleepy tone of the people behind him, he was actually blinded, and his consciousness gradually slipped to "still dreaming." "Here.

Yahuiquan let out a "huh", thinking that two hours is indeed a bit long, and he can sleep for a while.

He closed his eyes again, and he didn't even think about pushing the arm in front of him away.

Behind him, the newly promoted "Actor" almost suffocated himself - the tone of voice must be realistic, the breathing rate cannot be changed, and the breath cannot be deliberately held because of nervousness, so as not to be heard as flaws, it is best to suppress the heartbeat that is gradually beating Once pressed, the body parts that are in contact with each other must also be kept relaxed, and must not be stiff, otherwise it will be easy to be noticed.

The Woxiu man remained motionless, and almost died of his haste on the spot.

Yahuiquan seamlessly connects the blocked touch in front of my eyes and returns to the dreamland.

In the dream, the commander Woxiu he recalled was far more capable than the one behind him.

It was an early morning on the desolate star. They had just finished exploring the land numbered "Area C" and were about to return to the submarine base to replenish energy and integrate the latest information they collected.

"Wait." Wo Xiu stopped Yahuiquan before he entered the powered submarine.

Ya Huiquan heard the man tap on the hatch of the submarine that had not been closed.

"What are you doing?" With one leg already in the driver's seat, he looked up.

Wo Xiu stepped aside a little in front of the hatch: "Have you always turned a blind eye to the little surprises in life?"

Yahuiquan was even more inexplicable: "What surprise?"

As he spoke, he frowned, thinking Wo Xiu was wasting his time.

Wo Xiu shrugged his shoulders slightly, and sighed vaguely.

Then the other party suddenly leaned over, using the hatch, the cockpit and the other party to temporarily block Yahuiquan in a limited space.

Ya Huiquan tensed, and before he could ask Wo Xiu what was wrong, his eyes were covered by a hand.

"The sun still has about 30 seconds, and the first ray of light will appear on the sea level that we can see, and the cold air entrenched in the sky has not yet left, and the hot air that rises with the sun will soon be with it. Cold air mixed together."

"So what?" Yahuiquan endured and didn't slap his hands away. He asked back, "When the hot and cold air mix, they will condense to a certain extent. Do you want to stay here and watch the tiny ice cubes they condense?"

"Can't you put it another way and call someone a better name?" Wo Xiu laughed, "Excuse me, General Ya, can you respect the beautiful image that things are given?"

Wo Xiu said and let go of his hand.

After 30 seconds passed, the sun had already revealed its first ray of light, and the world lit up behind Wo Xiu.

The rising hot air relentlessly chases the cold air at the upper level, and the mixed and condensed tiny ice blocks float in the air that can be observed from the ground.

It was like someone standing on a high place and sprinkled gold powder down.

"Look," Wo Xiu said, "Diamond Dust."
