Interstellar: Besieged

However, as Xi Pei's various behaviors were gradually exposed to Ning Yao's eyes, he couldn't help but have a second guess - the jackal that Ning Wutong was looking for, what does he have to do with Xi Pei?

The jackal has always been mysterious, his whereabouts are elusive, he does things neatly and never leaves any clues, which makes it impossible for almost everyone to determine which side he is working for.Ning Yao had almost no contact with him, so he didn't bother to investigate, but this time Ning Wutong was involved, and Ning Yao instinctively felt that this matter seemed not simple, so he started to investigate.

The target is a tricky character like a jackal, so naturally nothing can be found in just one or two months.And the Sixth Office has always been short of manpower, so Ning Yao contacted a special organization in the Interstellar Sea——Luo Que.This is an anarchic organization that is located outside the country. Its main business is selling information. The price is expensive, but it absolutely treats all customers equally.

There are two ways of Luo Que's trading, one is money and goods trading, you pay the money, I will give you information; intelligence.

Ning Yao is serving the country and is a registered soldier. Of course, the intelligence she is involved in is targeted, and it is impossible to cover everything.But the organization Que Luo is different. They have dabbled in all kinds of intelligence. If there is no intelligence in the organization, they will try their best to obtain it if the client asks for it, and they rarely fail.Such an organization is surprisingly powerful.

But this is exactly the tool Ning Yao needs right now, as long as Que Luo doesn't threaten Xia, then it's okay for them to make a deal.As for the jackal, Queluo didn't have much information, so he promised Ning Yao to give him an answer as soon as possible.

And on this night, Ning Yao's long-awaited answer finally came.

After coaxing Zhao Zhaomu to fall asleep, Ning Yao went back to the bed and saw that the screen of her terminal was on. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Queluo's contact person——Firework, Xipei, Fox Wolf.

The three phrases connect Xipei, Vulklin's fireworks and jackals in series, and the meaning is self-evident.But what Ning Yao wanted to know was more than that. Why did Ning Wutong meet jackals?And just before the Vulklin fireworks go off?What was Ning Wutong's identity at that time? She was Chu Shuo's fiancée. Could it be that the series of consequences caused by the jackal's contact with her were accidental?

The more Ning Yao thought about it, the more she felt that there must be some deliberate trace in this strangeness, and Ning Wutong...does she know the role played by the jackal in this series of events?Even if she found him in the end, is it luck or misfortune?

When Chu Shuo returned to his room, he saw Ning Yao sitting in front of the window, lost in thought. He walked over and put his arms around his shoulders, and brought him into his arms. His cool breath came over his face, "What's wrong?"

Ning Yao closed her eyes slightly, and leaned back on Chu Shuo's chest, her tone was light and light, her thoughts seemed to drift to the distant past, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that when I was young, I was with Ning Wutong, Ning Haicheng and Ning Or The relationship between the four of them is not bad, and the four of them have been going to the river to play in the water together after practicing. Oh, and there is Xiaoxiao’s follower behind him, watching us play on the bank. After all, it’s not a big deal to say that we are childhood sweethearts. Pass."

Chu Shuo understood that it was rare for Ning Yao to be so sad about the past, but most of the people back then had already parted ways or turned against each other, no matter how hard-hearted people are, they would also sigh.But Chu Shuo cared more about the name Xiaoxiao, Ning Xiao, Ning Yao's younger brother who died early, "Aren't you going to tell me about your younger brother?"

Ning Yao turned around and put her arms around Chu Shuo's neck, pecking lightly on his lips, "I don't want to mention it for now, next time."

Hearing this, Chu Shuo reached out and clasped the back of Ning Yao's head, inserted his fingers into his hair, picked him up and put him on the bedside cabinet, leaned forward, and used a more convenient posture to ruthlessly deepen his grip. this kiss.In the end, Hei Mou stared firmly at Ning Yao's blurred eyes and said, "Okay, I'll wait."

On December 12st, the time finally came to the last day of the 31 year ephemeris, and it was about to enter the gate of the new year.In Shaar's Ming Palace, lanterns were hung everywhere, and a grand state banquet was held just like last year.

Ning Yao, as a new member of the Chu family, of course had to attend with her.What Du Yueheng prepared for him was still an exquisite white suit. As the saying goes, people should be pretty and filial. The scene at the wedding.

It's just that when they went out, the two little milk babies who had also been well-dressed looked directly at Ning Yao, asking Ning Yao to hug her.It's not that Ning Yao doesn't have that strength, it's not like she has one big hand, but just as she was about to pick it up, a big hand took a step ahead of him, lifted the heavier Chao Chao, and threw it to Du Yueheng who was beside her.

Major General Chu himself doesn't like hugging very much. Compared to such a fleshy little dumpling, he prefers to hug Ning Yao, and he doesn't depend on him very much day and night. They only need a father, but this father It's not kind at all to rob them.And in this family, Twilight is undoubtedly the biggest winner, because he is the youngest, and he is not in good health, so he can always lie on his father's chest majestically, nestled in his arms and quietly watch the outside world .

Every time Chao Chao sees that his younger brother is occupying that seat, he stops making trouble. He seems to have telepathy and knows to give way to his younger brother. Now he can only lie on Du Yueheng's shoulder and look at Ning Yao and Mu anxiously. twilight.

When the family arrived at Ming Palace, most of the guests had already arrived.People from the Chu family sat at the main table with the royal family, while the rest sat at the other tables. Those in military uniforms and suits filled the entire hall.In fact, there were more people, but there were many people who couldn’t come back because of the war or various other things, so this year only the people in this hall were seated.

In fact, the state banquet is nothing to watch, it is the dignitaries of various ministries get together to celebrate the New Year and have a meal.The Chu family and the royal family were present here. After a dinner, everyone toasted each other and talked about things, business or private matters mixed in for fun. The atmosphere was very harmonious.It’s rare for everyone to relax during the Chinese New Year. Char doesn’t have to go through so many red tapes like other countries. The emperor didn’t come out to spoil the fun after he said a few words at the beginning. He had a drink first and let everyone feel free.

Ning Yao was undoubtedly the most relaxed and carefree of all the people in the audience. He was sitting next to Chu Shuo. Because he had to take care of the children, Chu Shuo stopped him from toasting.Mu Mu naturally sat in Ning Yao's arms, but Chao Chao was hijacked by the little princess, and she hugged her in her arms as if offering a treasure to his father. Nice waiter, don't be afraid that they will fall.

It's just that the little princess went towards this with her arms in her arms, but she couldn't come back smoothly for a long time.After the emperor Edward took it, he couldn't put it down and teased it for a while, and finally let go. The person sitting at the next table was actually Gu Tongshan and Chu Shuo's teacher Alman.The two old men came together today, and when they saw such pink and tender buns that had just been baked, the two old faces burst into smiles, they cut them off halfway, and hugged them for a long time.

The poor Chaochao was eaten up with tofu, he squeezed this one, kissed that one, especially when he transferred to the tables of the military department, those military bosses usually couldn't bully that kid Chu Shuo, his son Don't take the opportunity to pick it up when it's in your hand - but this kid looks like a milk dumpling, with those big eyes staring at you innocently, so he can't do anything.I feel nervous when I hold it in my hand, as if it will hurt if I am not careful.

Fan Zhenghan, Fan Lieutenant General, is a very tough guy, even the milk dumplings are from the Chu family, so without a word, he dipped some wine with his chopsticks and moved them to Chao Chao Chao's mouth.

Soldiers must drink well!Gotta start with dolls!

Seeing his movements, all the military and political leaders craned their necks to see Chao Chao's reaction.Seeing this, Du Yueheng groaned in his heart, glared at Fan Zhenghan, but did not stop him.As a result, under the attention of all the people, the tip of the chopsticks stained with wine was put into Chao Chao's mouth, Chao Chao stretched out his small tongue to lick it, sucked it again, and let out a happy 'ah'.

Fan Zhenghan smiled gratifiedly, dipped some more into Chao Chao's mouth, and saw that the little guy didn't blush or pant, and drank it like plain water, babbling as if he wanted to drink more.In the end, he probably felt that the wine on the tip of the chopsticks was too little to satisfy his appetite, so he stretched out his fat hand to grab the wine glass on the table, but fortunately Fan Zhenghan quickly moved it away with his quick eyes.

How could Fan Zhenghan have expected that even if he wasn't from the Chu family, no one at the table would be able to drink better than Ning Yao alone.

"Okay, Lieutenant General Fan, don't get my grandson drunk, or I won't let you go." Du Yueheng finally took Chao Chao back and looked at Fan Zhenghan with eyes wide open. proud.The two are young, so they don't have so many scruples about each other.

Fan Zhenghan smiled and apologized for a cup, which drew laughter from the table.

But Chao Chao, who was out of wine, was quite resentful, looking around with big eyes, he missed his father.After looking at it for a long time, I finally saw Ning Yao sitting not far away, stretched out my hand and grabbed there, "Ah, ah..."

Ning Yao was feeding Mu Mu with a small bottle at this time, seeing that he hadn't moved his chopsticks much, Chu Shuo took a piece of meat and brought it to Ning Yao's mouth.Ning Yao casually opened her mouth to eat, with a natural attitude, Chu Shuo was even more natural, and the other people at the table just pretended not to see it, what should they do, and looked at Major General Chu's [-] volts more carefully.

In fact, Ning Yao is quite similar to Qi Lian in this aspect. They are both married, so they are generous. This is my man, what's the matter with feeding him food.At this moment, he vaguely heard Chao Chao's voice, and every time he called out to himself, he said "ahhh", so he turned his head immediately, and sure enough, he saw Chao Chao's little hand stretched out from a distance, calling him.Ning Yao really couldn't ignore the milky voice.

"Look at it first." Ning Yao stuffed Mu Mu into Chu Shuo's arms, then stood up to pick her up.When Chao Chao saw him coming, before he opened his hand, he rushed forward.Ning Yao quickly caught it and carried her back to her seat.

Everyone sees that their father is out, and no matter how reluctant they are, they can't force them to stay, so they all calm down and continue to drink and eat food. However, those who have children of trial marriage age at home can't help but start to hate each other, and hurry up to get married and have a baby. How good is the baby boy, look at the old Chu family, the grandson is good, the two of them have been together for a lifetime, this male and female daughter-in-law looks one in a thousand and handsome, the genes must be good!

Back on her seat, Ning Yao couldn't help but pinch Chao Chao's little nose, look at the limelight, a state banquet will soon become your kid's personal debut.It's just his own son, Ning Yao was quite pleased, and kissed Chao Chao's face as a reward.

The dinner party was quickly spent in this hilarious atmosphere, but Ning Yao did not participate in the next theatrical performance.Day and night, it was time to go back to sleep, and he had to go back with him. The three of them left. Chu Shuo put on Ning Yao's coat, and of course he followed.So Chu Chen and Du Yueheng stayed to accompany them, and let the young couple go back.

So the Xia people who stayed in front of the TV or computer all night were destined to be disappointed. During the live broadcast of theatrical performances, the camera couldn't capture the family of four they most wanted to see.

This night is destined to be another sleepless night.In a huge interstellar sea, some people are happy and some are worried, but Shaar is undoubtedly lucky. They can still walk freely in their own land so carefree, happily reunite with their families, and welcome the new year together 's arrivalEven Yuan Xing is a scene of harmony.

But what about other places in the interstellar sea, is this lively and festive day a more poignant irony?

And at the other end of the interstellar sea, the White Alliance, which was still immersed in the ocean of joy a year ago, is undoubtedly the most emotional group at this moment.The one-year war has made the people here gradually forget their mood at that time, but the sound of artillery fire, which is rarely heard, deepens their current mood over and over again.

Helpless and cold.

In a huge energy mining area, military vehicles coming and going are busy loading newly mined energy and transporting them out in batches.Soldiers with guns in their hands are pointing to various exits, and the absentees are still working tirelessly. Even when it is time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, they don't have the time to stop and rest.

However, at this moment, an inconspicuous red light flashed deep in the pit.At first, it was not very noticeable, but when the second red light flashed past again, the dark-skinned old miner suddenly thought of something, and in an instant, his eyes widened, and his spine felt cold.

He breathed a sigh of relief, turned around suddenly, and shouted loudly at the crowd behind him: "The mine is about to explode! Quickly—"

The old miner's words stimulated everyone's eardrums. Those who got close and heard it all stopped in astonishment, but they couldn't react immediately and run away.The old miner hated it, lost the tool in his hand, and ran back while running and crawling, while continuing to shout loudly to make people run for their lives.

The direction he fled to was where the overseer was standing. There should be a loudspeaker there, and if he had time, he could remind everyone to escape immediately!No!If there is no if, we must catch up, we must catch up!

However, the red light in the depths of the pit flashed more and more frequently, the energy surged like boiling water, and at a certain moment—there was a bang!

The ground trembled violently, and the thunder on the flat ground instantly made everyone lose their hearing for a short time.Some people who were still completely confused raised their heads and looked at the depths of the mine in astonishment—the gushing energy, like a raging ancient behemoth, tore the surface of the ground and surged towards them with incomparable power come.

This...is this...

At this moment of race against time, some people turned around and fled desperately, their expressions panicked; some people exclaimed in fear and lost their running direction for a while; On the ground, he watched helplessly as he was swallowed by the giant beast.

And beside their ears, the roar of the old miner was still ringing.

"Run—run away!"
