the broken higgs

It was an autumn day, and he was hiking in the mountains. The stream gurgling down from the distant snow-capped mountains circled around his feet a few times before moving on. The pumice stones on both sides of the stream reflected glass-like brilliance in the sun.

The golden light slipped between his fingers, and a pine tree appeared in front of him.

The crooked trunk is full of cracks, but its fragrance is so refreshing, he can touch the granular protrusions on the surface of the pine tree... but just as his fingertips touch it, it submerges into the trunk and becomes translucent shape.

"This simulation machine is not good enough!" Higgs took off the helmet and threw it into Hector's arms. "It obviously lacks touch, but the sound and color are fine."

"Really!" Hector flushed abnormally, "This is just a sample for the first time, as long as I have enough funds, I can make it perfect!"

"Can you guarantee sales? It's useless to ask for such fake things." Higgs gave him a contemptuous look. "Compared with this, you should care more about the situation of M34."

"As long as you have your support, this won't be a problem!" Hector pushed the mirror frame on the bridge of his nose and straightened his back. He tried hard to show confidence in front of this arrogant guy, "There is a big The customer already ordered one! And gave me money to keep improving it!"

"Who?" Higgs raised his eyebrows, and put his feet on the table, "Based on your asking price, there are not many people who can afford it, right?"

The tight trouser legs lined his slender and straight legs perfectly and alluringly.

"It's a secret," Hector blushed even more when he saw Higgs' sexy collarbone, "He said he wanted to see you!"

Higgs laughed contemptuously, and stepped out of the small hatch.

"Leave other people alone, fuck your little brother first!"

As soon as I lowered my head, I realized that a small tent had been set up in the crotch at some point!Grabbing the crotch, Hector rubbed it a few times in shame. After such a long time, did he finally lose his composure in front of him?

Swinging his neck and making a "crack" sound, Higgs got into the narrow gray oval cabin.

Those false things are far less real than the ones in front of them!

When the empty front detected his arrival, a control panel immediately appeared, waiting for him to enter the entry command. At the same time, the wide and curved cabin began to become transparent, allowing the beautiful space scenery to be unobstructed.

The faint light on the screen flickers with a cool beating frequency from time to time.

The journey of more than three months has already made the huge blue and white sphere visible to the naked eye alone.

Higgs looked at the planet that was getting closer and closer with satisfaction, and snapped his fingers, "Ritz! Scotch whiskey!"

"Okay!" When Liz's image reappeared, there was an extra wine glass in his hand, "Do you need to read the information on M34 first? It seems to be a bit different from what we predicted."

"Say." Higgs hugged Liz's curvy body violently, took a sip of wine and brought it to her mouth, slowly pushing out the mellow smell of wine.

"This is the information," Liz thoughtfully changed the angle of the space scene through real-time projection, "This planet has only one satellite, and it orbits a very small star."

"Continue..." Higgs sank his body deeply into the adjustable chair, hitting the handle with his beautiful fingers from time to time.

"This planet is indeed habitable. It has liquid water and a changing atmosphere. Almost all conditions are exactly the same as those on Earth, but—" Liz paused intentionally, "According to the latest probes we sent, here There is an artificial light of very debatable authenticity."

"Artificial light?" Higgs slowly opened Wu Jing's eyes, but his tone was mostly teasing, "If you can see it from such a distance, it means that there is a high civilization there?"

"It's not impossible."

Liz told the truth. "We have to wait until we figure it out in advance before we can land. At present, we can only park outside its atmosphere."

"You can figure it out," Higgs returned the wine glass to Liz, unbuttoning the silk shirt to the third button, revealing a large piece of strong chest, "I'm sure, the civilization there can't be so developed, at most Just learned to play with fire apes! How long before entering the atmosphere?"

"Ten hours later!"

Ten hours... This speed was beyond Higgs' expectation.

"Notify those stupid people, I'm going to sleep for a while, don't bother me in the meantime."

"Ok."

God must have played a joke on him.

Just when Higgs closed his eyes, the incoming siren sounded provocatively, crackling interference waves came from the earphones, and Liz's electronic voice began to become distorted: "It's bad, sir! Already!"

"An unknown object is coming!"

"what!"

Higgs immediately jumped up from the bed and went straight to the console. His vision was temporarily blurred due to the low blood pressure. "Spontaneous! Display the specific information immediately!"

Staring at the incomparably huge screen on the console, Higgs was about to go crazy when his vision gradually became clear—that thing was located directly in front of the space station, and a red frame appeared around it, and the numbers on it jumped fast. It's a headache, but obviously, this thing is telling them to attack!

He yelled at Liz and the other operators to get the hell out of their control seats, and then sat in. "You idiots! How did you not find out sooner!"

There was a dead calm all around.

"Sir, please calm down."

Finally, Liz spoke with a funny tone, "We actually detected it a few days ago. According to the data returned by the reconnaissance satellite, we thought..."

"I thought I thought it was! Give it to me!" Higgs's temper was like a brittle firewood.

"Get the fuck out of me in the hibernation box!" The loudspeakers in the hall, including everyone's earphones, sounded Higgs's exasperated voice, "We are fucking going to die here, if you want to live, hurry up Get in!"

At the same time, the radio broadcasts the intruder's message, "A huge unknown object may collide... Please return to the hibernation box quickly to reduce the maximum damage..."

Even celebrities, even superstructures, after hearing the explosive news, they all fled back to the hibernation box in various funny ways, and fastened the lid, as if they were burrowing into their mother's belly.

No one dared to move in the control room. Higgs was constantly calibrating the position of the intruder. Time became precious and rare. Two circular calibrators popped up on the screen, one red and one green. It gets bigger, but the two circles are constantly approaching each other, until the two circles suddenly coincide, and Higgs, including everyone present, saw the target: a space-seeking missile!

How can it be!According to its direction and track, there is only one inference: it was shot from M34!

How can it be!

"Fire the laser cannon and smash this fucking thing!" Higgs yelled, "You fucking stand here and fuck! Use the remaining propulsion system to space brake!"

Did M34 realize the danger and take defensive measures?Higgs pinched the bridge of his straight nose, and acted rashly without any preparations. In the end, it was still his fault, but—he wanted everyone to bear the consequences with him!

Two columns of numbers popped up on the screen, one in green and one in yellow, which respectively indicated firepower and distance. After automatic aiming, it was shooting.

The two columns of numbers kept jumping, and when the best ratio of azimuth and distance was obtained, a laser cannon was shot out.

"Hit!" Liz's voice sounded again in the headset, "The target will be blown up in 4 hours. Observation satellite confirmed."
