Hello dear

It was a bright day and the airport was silent.

Zhou Peiqing was holding a box in his hand when he stepped off the central mecha, which contained a fragment of Situ Jing's San Jose mecha. Although it was no longer recognizable due to the impact of the explosion, at least he brought it back, so he could keep it in mind.

He was greeted by the long-awaited President Philips and Zhou Zhiyuan's secretary Perry Otso standing next to him.

Zhou Peiqing walked up to them, saluted first, and then said: "The incident happened suddenly, and the task was not completed satisfactorily. Zhou Peiqing is willing to accept military punishment."

Otso looked at him with a solemn expression.

The face of President Philips was full of grief, and he asked: "I saw the video recording of your connection with Situ Jing. When the central government did not give a criminal punishment, why did you treat Situ Jing in the same way as a prisoner?" .”

"Reporting to President Philips, although the central government has not issued a clear punishment for the crime, the military department has given a preliminary judgment on Situ Jing's behavior and escort instructions and standards. We have 20 people on this trip, and we already know that the escort is cunning and dangerous. Under the premise, I don't think there is any problem with connecting Situ Jing with the standard procedure for prisoners of war, and it is in line with the regulations, strategies and procedures of this mission." Zhou Peiqing stood upright, without any change or looseness in his expression.

Philip raised his finger at him and said, "You have worked with Situ Jing for many years, and you even used words like 'cunning and dangerous' to describe her... Do you know that your attitude directly led to her choosing to commit suicide to prove that My innocence! I have reason to speculate that it was your inappropriate words that provoked Situ Jing..."

Otso said at this time: "President Philips, I don't think any adjectives can be used too much when dealing with enemies who betray the interests of the country. Before Major Zhou Peiqing led the team to set off, the military department had already made clear about Miss Situ Jing's behavior. Although they did not charge treason, Ms. Situ's behavior did directly lead to a huge loss of our interests in the 618 war, including but not limited to the complete destruction of a central mecha, the death of 128 soldiers. sacrificed, and 237 soldiers were seriously injured, 94 of whom were permanently disabled and could never return to the battlefield. I don’t think there is any problem with Major Zhou Peiqing’s attitude towards Miss Situ Jing during this mission.”

Philip's face became tense, his eyes circled around the faces of Ao Cuo and Zhou Peiqing, and he said, "Very well, the military department has now become the voice of your Zhou family."

Otso said: "Mr. President, in the absence of evidence, please be cautious in your words and deeds. Your hasty judgment of the military department and Marshal Zhou Zhiyuan is likely to cause ordinary people to distrust the military department. I don't think it is you I want to see it. In addition, Miss Situ Jing is your adopted daughter, we still don't know whether her actions were ordered by you, so I hope you will actively accept the investigation of the military department in the future."

Otso's words pushed the responsibility back to Philips. His words were so calm that Philips couldn't get angry for a long time.

"During this mission, did Major Zhou Peiqing really commit no violations of discipline? As far as I know, during the march, Major Zhou Peiqing used a communicator to contact his family in violation of regulations more than once, and sent a message to the central machine at that moment. A's coordinate position, is this true?"

Zhou Peiqing looked at him expressionlessly and said, "I am willing to accept the investigation by the military department."

"You should not only accept the investigation of the military department, you should accept the investigation of the central government, and even the supervision of all federal citizens!"

At this moment, the adjutant next to Zhou Zhiyuan trotted over, regardless of Philips still lecturing, he directly listened to Zhou Peiqing.After finishing speaking, Zhou Peiqing changed his calm expression just now, took off the communication equipment on his body and threw it to Otso, and said to Philips: "Investigate as you like, and just inform me when you reach a conclusion. Today Even if the Heavenly King and I want to stop me!" After he finished speaking, he strode out with long legs.

Philips glanced at the adjutant who had just come to notify, and asked, "What's going on?"

The adjutant replied: "Major Zhou Peiqing's wife is in the middle and late stages of pregnancy, and her menstrual period has come earlier."

Philips sneered, "Is it such a coincidence?"

"It is said that it started yesterday evening, until today when I heard the news of Major Zhou's return, I asked me to come and inform immediately."

What else did Philips want to say, and Ocuo on the side said: "Major Zhou Peiqing, for the sake of the national interest, took the risk of carrying out the mission knowing that his wife was giving birth, and the target of the mission was your daughter, Mr. Philips, I personally have a small suggestion... He paused for a moment, his facial expression was obviously stiff, but people read a sense of irony from the sentence, he said, "If I were you, I would shut my mouth right now."

In Zhou Peiqing's room in the Marshal's Mansion, Shang Miaoyuan had already experienced an unbearable fever all night, and his body's feeling changed from itching and fatigue to pain and numbness.He put himself in all the soft fabrics that Zhou Peiqing had used. Yu Pei held a dropper and was feeding the serum extract that Zhou Peiqing left before Shang Miaoyuan's mouth, and the latter was lying on his side because of his pregnant belly , the clothes on the lower body were sticky and wet, and even the movement of swallowing was very difficult.

The door opened with a creak, and Zhou Peiqing was sweating. He took off his coat while walking into the room, and said, "Mom, you go out, I'll come."

Yu Pei was obviously not surprised by his return, put the dropper aside and said, "Take good care of him."

Shang Miaoyuan on the bed quickly smelled him, his eyelashes trembled, his lips turned white, his half-length hair stuck to his face and neck due to sweat, and his whole body showed a naked beauty and haggardness.

Zhou Peiqing held his hand, lowered her head to kiss his lips, and said, "Sorry, I'm late."

Shang Miaoyuan hummed, raised his head slightly, and pressed against his lips, like a thirsty person who finally found a spring...

At the end of that day, Shang Miaoyuan said the first sentence after meeting him: "Water."

Zhou Peiqing held him in one hand, and fed him with the cup in the other. After feeding him for a while, he went to lick the corner of his mouth.

Shang Miaoyuan finished drinking the water, buried his face in his neck with attachment, sniffed for a while, and said hoarsely, "You came back early."

Zhou Peiqing hummed and said, "I'm back early."

"I thought I was going to die." Shang Miaoyuan leaned into his arms and sighed deeply, "I thought it would take more than a week for you to come back."

Zhou Peiqing shook his head, stroked his stomach carefully, and said, "I'm back, you won't die."

Shang Miaoyuan smiled and held his hand.The two sat together hugging like that, Zhou Peiqing seemed to be holding something cherished, and kept kissing his temples, saying, "Your hair has grown long."

Shang Miaoyuan said, "Does it look good?"

"It looks good." Zhou Peiqing stroked it for him.

Shang Miaoyuan asked again: "Is it ugly when you have short hair?"

"It's also pretty."

"Then what do you prefer?"

Zhou Peiqing hesitated for a while, then asked, "Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course."

"I prefer the way you look when you have short hair. It looks more energetic."

Shang Miaoyuan raised his body and looked back at him: "I thought you would like long hair."

"why?"

"No reason." He leaned back into his arms again, and after a while, asked, "Did the mission go well?"

Zhou Peiqing didn't answer for a while.

Shang Miaoyuan asked: "Is it not going well?"

"I lost Situ Jing's coordinate signal for a period of time. After half a month of searching, it was not very smooth."

"Did you finally find it?"

"I found it." Zhou Peiqing took his hand and put the two hands together on his belly.

When Shang Miaoyuan heard this, he didn't ask any more questions. After a long time, he turned to look at him again: "I propose a divorce to you now, will you agree?"

Zhou Peiqing held his hand tightly: "Don't mention this matter again."

The evening light slanted in through the curtains, and the two sat there kissing.

Seven days later, Shang Miaoyuan was lying on the bed almost exhausted, and Zhou Peiqing hugged him to clean up his body.

The bubbles in the bathtub are rose scented and overflow quite a bit.Shang Miaoyuan sat in the bathtub, the foam just wrapped his pregnant belly like a small fortress.Zhou Peiqing squatted outside to wash his hair, and while washing, he said: "I have to accept investigations later, and I may return to the military headquarters for a while. You stay at home, don't think about it, and don't do dangerous things." Things, stay with Mom and the others, and try to have someone around you when you go out."

Shang Miaoyuan said, "Why are you being investigated?"

"It's nothing, it's just a routine. According to the usual practice, there will be after every mission."

Shang Miaoyuan was relieved after hearing what he said, and said deliberately: "What are you afraid of me thinking? Do you think you are with Situ Jing?"

Zhou Peiqing paused with his hand, then wiped off a piece of foam that fell on his forehead, and said, "Situ Jing is dead."

Shang Miaoyuan opened his eyes wide and looked at him.

Zhou Peiqing lowered her head and kissed his eyes, and said, "I didn't want to tell you, because I was afraid I would scare you."

Shang Miaoyuan still stared at him for a while, before asking: "Why... died?"

"Suicide." He didn't want to talk about Situ Jing anymore, picked up the shower, and said, "Close your eyes, and I'll wash your hair."

Shang Miaoyuan closed his eyes obediently, but unconsciously clenched his clothes with his hands. After a while, he changed the subject and said, "The baby is a girl."

"That's good." He protected Shang Miaoyuan's ears with his hands to prevent the water from rushing in. After the foam on his hair was rinsed off, he gently rubbed Shang Miaoyuan's ears with water in his hands.

Seeing that his reaction was flat, Shang Miaoyuan said, "I thought you would like your daughter."

Zhou Peiqing said: "I like it very much."

"But you don't look very happy."

"Because a son and a daughter are the same to me." He began to help Shang Miaoyuan wash his body, and when he reached his chest, he smiled, "It seems to be a little plumper than before."

Shang Miaoyuan quickly raised his hand to protect his chest: "Don't say something strange."

Zhou Peiqing laughed and kissed his wet nose.

Not long after Zhou Peiqing returned to the military for investigation, Philips was sued by his former lover Winks. The content of the lawsuit was that Philips had refused him to meet with his son Darcy Philips for eight months. There have been many acts of verbal harassment in the exchange of information.Immediately afterwards, an overseas hacker organization revealed that Situ Jing had close contacts with the Anarchist Legion many times before his death. The direct evidence was hundreds of encrypted emails, and some of the decrypted emails showed that Situ Jing had several times with the organization. A government force plotting to dismantle the Fourth Galaxy.The most recent plan was on the 618 battlefield, that is, the explosion that was beyond everyone's expectations.

For a while, President Philip's personal and public morality were questioned by the public. People had reason to suspect that, as Philip's adopted daughter, Situ Jing's contact with the outside world was probably instructed by President Philip himself.At the same time, everyone knows that President Philips has been at odds with the military for a long time, and the direct reason is the ownership of military power. Whether he wants to obtain this part of power through the intervention of foreign forces is unknown to everyone.

Zhou Peiqing stayed in the confinement room of the military headquarters for two weeks. On the day he came out, he only felt the sun was shining brightly, and his eyes were squinted by the sudden strong light from outside.Just when he was about to find his own optical brain equipment to contact Shang Miaoyuan, the bright light in the sky seemed to be getting closer and closer, until there was a loud noise on the ground, and everyone panicked for a while...

In the Marshal's Mansion, Yu Pei, who was preparing dishes, was startled by the deafening noise and cut a bloodstain on her hand. Then, she heard footsteps coming from the second floor. She ran out of the kitchen and saw Shang Miaoyuan looked flustered with a big belly, he asked, "What's the sound?"

Yu Pei swallowed, held his arm, and said, "I don't know, let's go to the basement first."

Shang Miaoyuan held her hand and said, "I just contacted Peiqing, but he didn't reply."

"He should still be in the confinement room."

"What confinement room?" Shang Miaoyuan panicked, "Isn't he undergoing a routine investigation?" As soon as he said this, he also realized that this was a kind deception for his peace of mind, and couldn't help but become more worried.

"Let's talk about it later, go to the basement first."

While the two were talking, another muffled thunder sounded in the air.Shang Miaoyuan felt the ground tremble, the family dog ​​jumped up and down and let out a frightened snort, and the guard outside knocked on the door a few times.

Yu Pei said: "You go down first." Then he turned and opened the door for the guard.

Shang Miaoyuan knew that it would be useless for him to ask at this time, so he held on to the handrail of the stairs, turned his head and walked to the basement.

After Yu Pei opened the door for the guards, one of them went to the military headquarters to check the situation, while the other walked into the basement with them.

But after a while, Shang Miaoyuan found news on the Internet that this was an attack by an overseas anarchist organization, and the purpose was not clear. Since the attack was located in a desert area near Kyoto, although the nearby residents heard There was a loud noise and a strong shock from the attack, but there were no casualties.It is reported that the Central Military Department has activated the defense system and dispatched officers and soldiers to locate and hunt down the attacking organization.

Shang Miaoyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then, no matter how he dialed Zhou Peiqing's communicator, he was unable to connect.
