The eldest brother's responsibility [Interstellar]

Short breaks did not completely relieve drowsiness.

Three hours later, Shen Jiang got up from the bed with her forehead supported, quickly arranged her clothes, and rushed to the laboratory on the schedule.

The artificial wormhole made by Xueshan is already very complete. It is no longer the small one at the beginning, barely the size of a person, but more than enough to pass through a small fighter jet.

At the scene, apart from the two wrong time and space life forms and military officers brought back yesterday, Shen Jiang accidentally found Principal Lin's holographic projection sitting on the laboratory cabinet in the corner, for some reason, with his back to the crowd, and did not speak.

"Ah, Shen Jiang and Cen Xing, you are here," Xueshan forced a smile on her tired face, "The kid who was about your age brought back not long ago, what's his name, anyway, it's omega, through his memory and Confession, we have compiled a list, and the next work will be much simpler, and there is no need for Cen Xing to conduct a wide-ranging search in the underground city of Beastization."

Shen Jiang: "How many people are there?"

"There are 33 in total, and one of them fled to the second star field many years ago. It is presumed that Gou lived in the underground city, and the local branch officers have been sent to arrest them." Xueshan briefly explained to Shen Jiang, and left Shen Jiang. Jiang turned to talk to those officers about the specific implementation details.

Taking advantage of the gap between their conversations, Shen Jiang walked towards Principal Lin who was sitting on the laboratory cabinet in the corner.

Principal Lin's holographic projection is still wearing a gas mask, and he can't see the specific expression.

Shen Jiang raised her head, "Principal Lin."

Principal Lin's holographic projection turned around, looked down at Shen Jiang slightly, "Yes."

After responding, he turned back on his own and closed himself against the corner.

"All the procedures in the military academy are operating normally, um... when will you go back?" Shen Jiang didn't expect the always kind Principal Lin to be so indifferent. After speaking, he nervously waited for a reply.

"During this time, do you feel that it is difficult for you to take care of the chores of the military academy?"

Shen Jiang froze for a moment, "It's not difficult, but there are many things that I still don't understand. And when some students came to go through the formalities, they were very surprised to see you not there."

"If you don't understand something, you can ask Qisheng. I have carved all the management concepts and operating regulations about the military academy into her artificial brain. As for the prestige in front of the students... there is a spare in the attic on the third floor The projection, at first glance, is similar to the holographic projection generated by the mind, but in fact it is just an ordinary three-dimensional projection that needs to be manipulated by your will. Next time you see a student or attend a meeting, you can use that projection instead. Within the scope of politeness, no one will find a flaw."

Shen Jiang nodded.

It seems that Principal Lin will not return to the military academy in a short time.

silence.

Principal Lin continued to face the corner and shut himself up.

Shen Jiang wanted to speak but stopped several times, and finally said nothing.

In the dead silence, a child's sharp cry suddenly came from the experimental area, "I want my brother whoop, whoop, I want my brother—"

"I don't want to go in, it's so dark inside, I want my brother!"

"Wuwuwuwu——I want my brother——" the mournful cry filled my ears like a magic voice.

Shen Jiang's attention was attracted by the little boy not far away.

Several bionic soldiers pressed him, but they couldn't stop him from crying.

Xueshan squatted down and comforted softly, "Little friend, don't cry, you will be able to see your brother when you go back from this place, and you will see the brother who has never been injured before and who is not full of alcohol. You Look at that sister just now, she has already gone back, so you have to go back obediently."

"And you see, there are so many medical instruments on your body now. Without these instruments, your body will stop working immediately. As long as you go back from this wormhole, you don't need to wear these cumbersome instruments in the future."

The child raised his head suspiciously, and his crying became much quieter.

Shen Jiang took advantage of Xueshan's coaxing the children, and retreated to the officer who was watching.

This officer was newly transferred back to the Headquarters of the First Star Region. He is a few years older than Shen Jiang. As Shen Jiang's immediate superior, he treats Shen Jiang kindly, at least he will not make things difficult like those high-level military officers.

"Excuse me, sir, why can't you send him back directly? He must cooperate?"

"He is too fragile, coercive means will cause him to die in this time and space. Even without coercive means, knocking off the medical tube on his body is enough for his life to be in danger."

Shen Jiang nodded.

"However, Xueshan is right. When he returns to the original time and space, he won't be sick anymore."

Shen Jiang immediately realized, "Yuan Shikong...is he already dead?"

The officer replied flatly, "Well, he died of illness. The medical resources in the underground city were limited. At that time, his brother was young, and he didn't even have a second gender. He couldn't make much money by working part-time. He didn't want to burden his brother. He deliberately hid from his brother and found a corner, and left quietly. Later, after Shen Min brought him to this time and space, who was still alive before his illness and death, his brother began to spend all the money he earned in that place... To maintain his life, he also bought several medical instruments from the black market, and taught himself how to modify them. In the first star field, he was divided into omega. As long as he is not infected with bad habits, he can rely on government subsidies to live a nourishing life, but because of this Brother, they have to live in a place with lax supervision like the underground city, otherwise it is impossible for them to have no flaws discovered for so many years... In that kind of place, the natural omega is different from the omega pretended by the beta of artificial pheromones. Very expensive item."

Shen Jiang silently looked at the child who gradually stopped crying.

Coaxed by Xue Shan, with candy in his mouth, he walks suspiciously near the wormhole.

"Is Shen Yan helping them to do experiments in order to be safe when transmitting his son? Or is it in order to be safe in transmitting the army of the old empire?"

"I don't know yet. No matter how much I interrogate, Shen Min refuses to tell. But so far, it seems that the transmission success rate of wormholes is 100%. If we do experiments, we don't need so many samples at all."

Shen Jiang couldn't figure it out either.

Moreover, these wormhole stowaways are separated from their relatives for various reasons.

It can't be that Shen Yan is doing good deeds out of pity, right?

"But Shen Yan's motives are not important anymore, as long as the problem can be solved, it's fine."

While speaking, the child had already been tricked into stepping into the wormhole obediently, and waved his hand at the air of this time and space.

The communicator rang.

Shen Jiang saw the officer next to him get connected, and had a brief conversation with the opposite party, hung up the communication, and ran to the high-level officer beside him, "Report, the search team has sent news that 32 life forms in different time and space hiding in the first star field All the bodies have been found, and they are currently being brought back one by one, and it is predicted that the collective transmission and return work will start before 13:[-] today."

"Ah."

"That's great, I can finally rest for a while!" After Xueshan finished speaking, she slumped in the chair, ignoring so many people around her watching.

"Cen Xing." Shen Jiang walked towards Cen Xing, who was in a daze, and patted him on the shoulder, "It's here... What is this in your hand?" Shen Jiang didn't finish speaking, and noticed the little girl in Cen Xing's hand. A small round box that can be opened like a shell.

Cen Xing looked at the palm of his hand, "The kid gave it to me, and asked me to pass it on to his brother. It's a projection memory, a model that just went on the market last year. After confirming that it is an item from this time and space, I agreed."

Shen Jiang took it over and looked at it.

When this shell-shaped storage is opened, a three-dimensional projection will emerge from the middle, generating a reduced version of the dynamic form of a person or animal. When he was young, he saw his sisters playing with similar toys, and when he opened it, there were projections of popular idols singing and dancing. It's pretty realistic.

"Well, let's go together later."

After coming out of the laboratory, Shen Jiang and Cen Xing went straight to the medical room where the young man was.

On the hospital bed, the young man's face was pale, and his dirty and smelly clothes had been taken off, replaced by thick hemostatic bandages.

Only without the shackles of clothes can the scars on the body be fully revealed.

There were countless burns and whips, as well as pinch marks and bite marks, scratches deliberately caused by the tip of a knife, and even traces of iron scorching.

And many holes from cigarette burns.

Maybe it was born with him, or he lived in the underground city without seeing the sun all year round. The young man's skin is very fair, and these bright red scars are more eye-catching.

Most of the scars are old, and it is obvious that they were not caused by the soldiers of the army in the melee yesterday.

Shen Jiang is an adult, of course she understands where these injuries came from.

The young man on the hospital bed seemed to smell the breath of alpha, and stared at Cen Xing.

"Cen Xing, give me something, you wait outside first." Shen Jiang said.

Cen Xing went out wisely.

There was only the smell of omega left in the ward, and the young man's uneasy expression was obviously much less.

Shen Jiang walked towards the young man, "According to the information, your name is Ian, and you can call your name directly—"

"Don't call me by my name. My name is disgusting and I don't want to hear it."

Shen Jiang nodded, indicating that she understood, "Good sir. This is something your brother left for you."

"It's left by my brother?" Ian looked at the small storage device in Shen Jiang's hand, and finally lowered his head, "You don't have to give it to me. Yesterday, they came to me and said that as long as I confess, they will agree." Leave my brother behind. As a result, just now...he cried and called me in the live projection, until he was finally sent back to the wormhole. I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to him and hug him. Now Give me his relic, do you think it hurts me too lightly?"

"This is what your younger brother personally asked to hand over to you before he left. It is not a relic that we sorted out. Please accept it," Shen Jiang repeated. He grabbed the small box in his hand and threw it hard towards the wall beside him.

The young man roared viciously, "You have completed the handover, can you go!"

Facing the roar, Shen Jiang remained calm, "Yes—"

Before he finished speaking, suddenly, the falling box on the ground flickered twice, and a human-shaped projection emerged from it.

Is the young brother.

The kid was short and extremely thin. Although the clothes were old, they were clean and tidy.

He tilted his head, as if looking at the camera, "Brother... can you hear me?"

The young man who was furious just a second ago suddenly struggled to get up from the hospital bed.

"You should be able to hear me. Then I'll start talking," the little boy said, clearing his throat, "Thank you brother for allowing me to live in this world for so long, and for giving me a second chance to be by my brother's side. However, I heard from those officers that my existence may cause time-space confusion, so I must go back. It sounds like time-space confusion is a very serious matter, and it will endanger the safety of the people of the Federation, although I don’t know whether there is How serious... But I know that as long as I live for one day, my brother will drink and work hard for me," the little boy didn't finish, his head drooped slightly, "and accompany the guests... Every time my brother comes back, it is obviously painful , but insisted on telling me that I was very happy working outside today, and played games with me. I kept thinking, if I was not here, my brother's life would be much better, right? During the three hours when I was arrested During this time, I thought a lot, and finally decided not to trouble my brother any more. But the time I spent with my brother in the past few years was really very happy. Although it was a stolen life, it was the happiest thing in my life. A happy time," the little boy said here, choked up uneasily, was silent for three seconds, and suddenly began to cry without warning, "I can't bear my brother... I can't bear my brother... But, However, I am even more reluctant to let my brother do all this work for me——”
