star watcher

Mina's condition is indeed very bad, with excessive blood loss, multiple organ failure, broken limbs, nearly 50% of the body's burnt area, and a mess of mental power...

Fortunately, there is still a heartbeat.

Bamboo recorded through the camera in front of the hospital, back to six hours ago, Mina's appearance was even more miserable, it was indescribable, like... a piece of half-cooked and half-burned meat that was dripping with blood and no shape could be seen sticking to the plate.

Yes, he was brought in together with the seat, because the skin, combat uniform, and seat were so adhered together that no one dared to tear them off.

Bamboo continued to adjust the time axis forward, extracting relevant pictures and voices from various cameras, optical brains, communicators, and recorders...putting the pieces together piece by piece to restore the scene of the incident comprehensively.

Moments before the incident, Mina had completed some mission and returned to the Teegarden Star [-] satellite station.

——At that time, several small black spots suddenly appeared in the starry sky.

Mina began to check the optical brain information, and when he found that the number that had been silent for three years had a reply prompt, his fingers trembled a little when he pressed the "read" button.

——The little black dot stopped outside the range of Mina's garrison. It was a mecha.

He clicked on the video.

——The muzzle is set up, half of which are sniper guns and half of which are shotguns.

He saw two children who were both familiar and unfamiliar.

--aim.The former targets the reconnaissance system and guards, while the latter targets the entire camp.

He heard Milan's greeting.

——At that moment, their garrison was under heavy artillery fire!

Bamboo watched the opponent set up a formation, bombed in a reasonable and orderly manner, and watched our defense organize and counterattack in the shortest time.The opponent is coming in menacingly, and our side hastily responded to the battle and asked for support... Mina paid a huge price to cover his companions. After the reinforcements arrived, amidst the smoky ruins, half of the emergency bomb that popped up was thrown upside down. Rescue capsule...

"... Bamboo? Bamboo?" Milan's worried voice sounded.

This time Bamboo was in a daze for a long time.

At first Milan thought that his younger brother was caught off guard by Mina's bad news, so he thoughtfully set aside time for Bamboo to digest.

He was sure that Bamboo was extraordinarily strong mentally, able to withstand the pressure, and being in a daze was just a normal reaction of "I'm digesting".

But after a full 10 minutes, Bamboo hadn't finished digesting it, so it was not very good.

When Bamboo came back to his senses, Milan was touching his forehead worriedly: "Bambu, your temperature is a little high, are you uncomfortable?"

"No discomfort, I'm thinking a little too much." Bamboo always told the truth in a way.

"Dad will be fine." Milan said with certainty, cheering up Bamboo and himself.

He is no longer the Milan who was helpless on the Starlight six years ago, nor the Milan who was unable to control himself when he woke up in the gray star field and heard the bad news.When he saw the news of his father, he would cry because he was emotional, but now that his father was in danger, it was obviously not the time for him to be emotional.

He was very worried about his father, that's right, the best way is not to cry, let alone run around in a panic, but to quickly arrange a route to fly over, check on his father's situation, and bring him back to take care of him.

In response to Milan's words, Bamboo gave an affirmative answer: "I think, you are right."

Milan's hand on his forehead stopped and confirmed to him: "Do you also think that Dad can survive the dangerous period?"

"Yes."

Although the medical equipment connected to Mina showed dangerous values, there was an indescribable firmness in Mina's chaotic mental power, which supported his heartbeat.

That's why Bamboo dared to make such an assertion.

He is very aware of the power of "belief", which is powerful enough to trigger any small probability event.

For example, Milan has always believed in "protecting his younger brother", and he often makes unexpected decisions in crises.Hercules' belief is to "survive without being discovered", so no matter how long he spends with the captain, in the end he would rather kneel and beg than make another choice, finding a new owner who is not dangerous as a backer.

And Mina, since Mina has been looking for their action analysis without interruption in the past few years, the belief is obviously "family reunion", for this reason, even if the hope is slim, he will pay any price.

Therefore, since he saw Milan and Bamboo in his mind, even though he only had one glance, Mina will never give up hope, never give up, and will struggle to escape from the land of death no matter what.

Bamboo often speaks dryly without any emotion.

This time is no exception, just saying "yes" so simply, is especially dry.

Because after he agreed with Milan "You're right", he was in a daze for a thousandth of a second.

Strictly speaking, he does not have a state of "trance", and it is more appropriate to describe it as "disorder" or "conflict"——

He is an observer, and the principle of the observer is: objective observation, fair measurement, no evaluation, no interference.

He just revealed Mina's physical condition to Milan, does it count as interfering with the observed?

After a thousandth of a second, Bambuck came up with a speechless answer: who made the opponent Milan.

He just didn't want his cubs to worry too much, what's the problem?Um?

Besides, he just said a word, did not interfere with any of Milan's thoughts and actions, and he did not violate the principle.

Milan would not think that this sentence is the exact result of his super-long-distance spying plus backtracking, and comprehensive deduction.

——However, Milan's happy mood suddenly rose by [-] percentage points. What's going on?

Bamboo continued to be in a daze, analyzing.

He can only read emotions, not human hearts - if he wants to read, he has to really gnaw a brain.

Just as he is familiar with Milan, Milan is also familiar with him.

Bamboo never said anything he was not sure of, even if it was a guess, he would give a probability within a certain range.

And speaking with such certainty, of course Bamboo is sure.Despite not knowing what to expect, Milan is confident.

However, to investigate the source of this confidence, Milan can't explain it at all.But it has been proven countless times that this is right, and Bamboo has never let him down.

Where did Milan's blind confidence in himself come from? It has long been a proposition that Bamboo has been puzzled by, and has self-examined n times. Up to now, there is only conjecture, and there is still no definite conclusion.

"Banbu—" Rubbed his hair and praised, "Good Bamboo—" Milan smiled.

"Yeah." Bamboo quickly recalled what Milan did when he was in a daze. With Hercules, a little expert, he immediately replayed it at a hundred times speed. In a blink of an eye, Bambu seamlessly connected the topic: "How about the route gone?"

Their positions, K-star, m223 transition point, and the route map are simplified to form a large obtuse triangle with K-star as the apex.

"According to the chronological order, we can reach the vicinity of K star after three jumps. If we change the destination of the second jump and go through two more jumps, we will drive directly from the m223 jump point." Milan poked at the bottom of the triangle For a moment, "But—there's not enough time. Let alone get there within ten days, we're going at full speed, and ten days is only enough to get out of the first jump point." Milan frowned in confusion, "Why should their spaceship route be kept secret? "

Banbu silently copied the circuit diagram stored in Su Yue's optical brain, and there were some historical traces that were too late to clear...

"Milan."

"Ok?"

"What would happen to you if Dad died?" Bamboo never asked for no reason, because the historical traces on Su Yueguang's brain really didn't seem appropriate.For example, the final course of the ship...

Milan's face turned pale instantly: "Bambu, don't scare me."

Adrenaline is significantly increased, which is not a good sign.

“I was just asking,” Bamboo said. Milan’s reaction was exactly what he expected—he had a sample of the intensity of Milan’s waking up to the loss of his father six years ago.

This time, do you want Milan to go through that pain again?

No matter what you think, it's not worth it.

Mina needs to get out of there sooner, Bamboo decides.

But he still can't think of a suitable way to disclose the information to Milan, what should he do?

Unlike when he faced Colonel Croun three years ago, he could use logic to explain various reasons. Now this ultra-long-distance detection backtracking is completely beyond the scope of human technology.

It's so difficult...

In fact, Bamboo didn't know that his credibility in Milan's heart was so high that "even if he said something illogical, Milan could give him a reasonable reason".

Fortunately, before Bamboo could think about it, Milan quickly adjusted his thinking.

"I don't know what to do... I just know that I have to save my father no matter what... Yes, even if we pass in time, there is only so much we can do—Hercules, can you help me contact the famous hospital?" With a private doctor? Can it pass within ten days?" Milan thought very comprehensively, not to mention arriving on time to pick up Mina, he and Bamboo are not doctors, and they are still helpless in terms of treatment except for the reunion, right? This professional The problem has to be solved by professionals.

As for the cost-"Bambu, please evaluate all our current assets, and how much they are worth when they are realized." Milan decided to sell the iron.They don't need to consider the issue of star coins on the Pearl White Star, and his quality of life in the Gray Star Region is also above average. As for how much property he has, he really doesn't know.

If he didn't have that much money, he could only consider borrowing it from around, and then let Hercules stay in another place, directly dismantling the spaceship, selling engines, selling weapons and selling parts.As for why it was dismantled and sold... He couldn't help it, the dilapidated appearance of the ship was really ugly.

The reason that prompted him to make this decision is very simple. The price of his pair of vision aids is at least [-] yuan. Mina is seriously injured, and the medical expenses will be astronomically bottomless.

"I'll give you the answer later." Bamboo could indeed directly enter the backstage of the "Snake and Cat's Nest" grocery store through the star network, but he never forgot that there is also a very good housekeeper, the little black cat, who manages funds. Coordinating distribution, drawing up investment plans, and making money with money are very powerful, and the task of statistical realization should also be left to professionals.

"Okay." Milan nodded in agreement.

The information on hospitals and doctors is simple. Bamboo continued to cheat, and searched for a large amount of information and handed it to Hercules, who screened and compared it and provided Milan with a list.

——Well, this kind of small convenience is definitely not called interference, and it definitely does not violate the principle of observers.

Because Hercules had these lists in the database at the beginning as the intelligence brain of the spaceship, he just updated the contact information, how could it be regarded as interference?

Even the little trick he used to smuggle information into the Aries star field was just to help update the data.

Moreover, he wants to provide Milan with as many opportunities as possible to observe Milan's choices.

--Yes, exactly.

Bamboo didn't feel that he lowered the bottom line again and again. Regarding this situation, to be honest, he didn't have any pressure.Because things like the bottom line are used to break in small probability events.

By the way, it is more important to continue to do his small probability statistics.

Besides, if Mina's problem is not resolved early, Milan's love, marriage and childbirth will all be postponed, which is not good.

When Milan was reviewing the list, Hercules in the digitization room turned into a teary look, rushed over and hugged his thigh: "Bambu, Bamboo——"

"Huh?" This pitiful expression didn't affect Bamboo at all, "What's the matter?"
