Interstellar: Besieged

Lifting the curtain and walking out of Song Xia's tent, Ning Yao let out a long sigh in her heart.The sunlight at 08:30 in the morning was too mild, but it still made him feel a little glaring when it hit his face.His eyes were icy cold, but the sunlight shone like a confrontation between ice and fire.

He couldn't help raising his hand, and looked at the small piece of paper in his hand.On the piece of paper, Song Xia drew a pattern with crooked lines - a circle on the outside, a rhombus inside the circle, and a flower in the center of the rhombus.

Ning Yao recognized this flower, it was called Edelweiss, also known as edelweiss.

So far, many things seem to be connected in series because of this flower.White Alliance, Blight, Edelweiss, Merchant, Boss, Jackal, etc.And Song Xia, who involved this connection, seems to be... really a hidden branch that is closely related to the main plot.

Oh, it's really like playing a game, a ridiculous game.

Ning Yao's hand holding the paper tightened even more, her joints were slightly white.Song Xia had already fallen asleep inside because of Ning Yao's hypnotherapy.When he fell asleep, his eyebrows were stretched, and his soft hair was attached to his ears, revealing his slightly delicate face.

Song Xia said that he just turned 19 this year.Only 19 years old, only 1.7 meters tall, thin and thin, but he is the most feared Song lunatic on the battlefield, isn't it ridiculous?And the conversation just now played back in Ning Yao's mind over and over again, making it even more difficult for him to calm down.

"Then why are you in Bewa?"

“One time I overdosed and went into deep suspended animation. Everyone in the organization thought I was dead and took my body out for disposal, and then someone picked me up on the street. He was a Bewa veteran.”

"So, you're here to join the army?"

"I... can only kill people, and he said that there is no other place that is more suitable for me."

Ning Yao couldn't express his emotions when he heard these words, but he firmly remembered Song Xia's expression.When Ning Yao was silent and didn't speak, Song Xia lowered his head, his eyes seemed to be full of guilt and self-blame, then he smiled slightly, actually a little shy.

But whose fault is all this?Who should blame themselves, who should feel guilty?How many people think Song Xia is a monster, but who is that ugly monster who steps on people's hearts? !What about myself?If he hadn't met Qi Lian at that time, what kind of lunatic would he have become?

Ning Yao seemed increasingly unable to calm down, desperately wanting to tear away all the cover-ups and restore the most essential truth.There is no way for the dead to come back to life, and there is no way to eliminate the torture they have suffered, so we can only cut off all the causes and effects as soon as possible, so as to prevent more damage.And those who act recklessly, how can they not pay the price for it.

Looking at Ning Yao's back, Potter, who had been following closely behind, felt a little palpitation inexplicably.He had never seen Ning Yao like this before, he was even more terrifying than the major general when he was angry.Potter couldn't help pursing his lips, and looked back at Song Xia's tent. What happened today?Why does everyone seem to be a little bit wrong, didn't we just win the battle?

The two quickly walked to the large open space away from the gate of the camp. At this time, the Tiancai team just assembled again, preparing to cooperate with the Beiwa Military Region to sweep up the remnants of the North Sea.And Yu Fang was also talking to Chu Shuo, it seemed that he was about to leave.

Ning Yao didn't go forward, but waited quietly at the side, without the slightest wave on her calm face.When everyone was about to set off, Chu Shuo walked over, and at a glance, he could see that there seemed to be an undercurrent hidden under Ning Yao's calm surface, but Ning Yao said before he asked, that she was going back to Poole first.The information on Song Xia's side was not easy to come by. He didn't want to delay any longer, so he had to go back and deal with it immediately.

Chu Shuo looked at him with black eyes, as if trying to read his mind.In the end, he agreed, grabbed Ning Yao's hand, and said, "You go back first, and I'll go back here after I've dealt with it."

Ning Yao nodded, and without further hesitation, immediately boarded the military vehicle and returned to the guest house in Poole City where he and Chu Shuo stayed overnight.Lin Zi also went to Poole City a few days ago, but just to be on the safe side, he did not meet Ning Yao, and the two still communicated by phone.

After listening to Linzi's report on Bewa's current situation, Ning Yao immediately contacted the white wolf and the little watermelon. The white wolf was responsible for tracking down the whereabouts of the jackal, and the little watermelon had been tracking down the edelweiss.

It's disappointing that jackals haven't appeared recently, but there has been a little progress in the matter of edelweiss.

"Boss, I finally targeted these companies. Some of them may have invested in Edelweiss." Xiao Xigua's voice was still brisk and energetic as always, and a list was quickly passed on.Ning Yao took a rough look and found that the ten companies mentioned above are basically commercial giants, including those owned by Xia Ya, Xi Pei, and the White Alliance.But more than a dozen, the scope is still too wide. In this regard, you should consult professionals.

But just when Ning Yao was about to call Qi Lian, his terminal rang again.Encrypted route, it's a bird drop.

"Yin, the remaining pages of the notes you took care of last time, we got a few new ones here, do you want them?"

Silver is Ning Yao's code name, silver, the mysterious and cunning intelligence agent Mr. S, that is a well-known sign in the industry.

"Of course, what price?" Ning Yao adjusted her tone, making herself sound calm and joyful.Under the encrypted channel, his own voice has also been modified, not the original voice.However, his eyes couldn't help but narrowed, revealing a dangerous light.He had just returned to Poole City from the front line, and Que Luo immediately called him. How could it be so coincidental at this time.

"The whereabouts of the jackal."

"Sorry, I don't have that. Besides, I asked you to check the jackal's whereabouts."

"Hehe, isn't there no progress on our side? The jackal guy has provoked quite a few enemies. If you have any news, please sell it to us, and the price is guaranteed to be fair."

"Then you change hands and sell it to a buyer like Xipei, which will be another huge profit."

As for Xipei that Ning Yao pointed out intentionally or unintentionally, the contact person brought it up with a light smile, but this was considered acquiescing, "By the way, since you have no whereabouts of the jackal, there are some black materials about Xipei. buy it."

"Of course, but with regard to the remaining pages of the notes on the business stop, this time I want the original, and electronic copies are not accepted."

He pondered for a while, and then said: "Okay, just wait, we will deliver it to you as soon as possible. But relatively, we need double copies of Xipei's black materials."

"Yes." Ning Yao made a decision, and quickly found the folder marked Xipei from her secret mailbox, and sent it to the other party.These are all encrypted files, but the file titles are displayed, which can clearly reflect the contents of the files.When he receives the goods from Queluo, he will automatically send the password.

With Queluo's efficiency, the goods should arrive soon. During the waiting time, Ning Yao called Qi Lian again.It must have been a long time since we saw each other, after the call was connected, Qi Lian directly turned on the video call, and the screen popped up, but it was Zhao Chao's chubby little face.

"Hahaha Ning Fairy, guess where I am?" Young Master Qi's cadenced voice came, and a face followed Chao Chao in front of the camera, occupying the entire frame.

"My family." Ning Yao showed a smile on his face, "Where's Mu Mu, where did you push him?"

"Dangdangdangdang, here~ isn't it cute!" Qi Lian hurriedly grabbed another milk dumpling in front of the camera, and Ning Yao saw that black lines were growing like mushrooms.

Young Master Qi, you are really enough, what's wrong with dressing up my son as a little lolita?Why didn't I know you still have this interest?Look at that fluffy gothic princess dress, although it is really cute on Twilight...

Ning Yao suddenly had the feeling that he had given birth to twins.

"I advise you to hide your clothes well, otherwise Master Chu will chase you down." Ning Yao sincerely suggested.

Qi Lian curled his lips indifferently, and patted Mumu's head, "Little Mumu, you will protect me, right?"

Little Twilight didn't pick on him, because he had already seen his father and was about to pounce on him with his arms outstretched.But the little hand only touched the cold screen, and suddenly a sadness arose spontaneously, and the eye sockets were red.Chao Chao also stared at the screen with his big eyes open, and eagerly stretched out his small hands to cover Ning Yao's face.

Ning Yao felt distressed watching them, and listening to their babbling voices, it was very unrealistic to think that it would be great if she could just reach into the screen and hold the two milk balls out.It's a pity that it's all unrealistic, so he can only comfort them gently, at least to calm them down.Probably because they were separated for too long, Twilight was not as noisy as when they first separated, and she calmed down after a while.It's just that those beautiful eyes that still screamed water vapor kept looking at Ning Yao, which made Qi Lian feel worried.

But at the end of the day, Ning Yao made up his mind and told Qi Lian about the affairs of the dozen or so companies. Qi Lian always agreed to Ning Yao's requests without hesitation, but this time , After he finished saying 'wrap it on me', he looked at Ning Yao for a long time, frowned and asked: "Ning Yao, what happened? Your expression is wrong."

Ning Yao knew that she couldn't hide it from Qi Lian, and after being friends for so many years, Qi Lian's eyes had already become sharp and sharp.

"Qilian, do you still remember the first time you saw me...what I looked like?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I met a man..." Ning Yao told him about Song Xia, but after Qi Lian listened to him, he plucked his black hair and said in a flat voice: "That little colonel surnamed Song It was being abused, you were self-abusing at that time, understand?"

"It's all about abuse, do you want to learn from me?" Ning Yao smiled and smiled.

Qi Lian glared at him, raised his legs leisurely, and put Chao Zhao Mu Mu in the crib next to him, "Let me put it another way, maybe Song Xia reminds you of the past, and his things are more or less Don’t have anything to do with that boss, and it involves business, so Ning Fairy, you are angry, you are angry, it’s a good thing.”

Ning Yao was slightly stunned, but saw Qi Lian smiling brightly, "Isn't it right that you used to hide your emotions too well and be gentle at all times? Ning Fairy, you just keep pushing yourself too hard. It's too depressing. As my young master Qi's friend, you can laugh when you should laugh, get angry when you should be angry, slap someone back if you talk cheaply, and kick someone back if you want to die, what do you care about. Look around In the entire interstellar sea, who else is tougher than your backstage? If you want money, power, and people, Chu scumbag still has the potential to become a concubine in anger."

Young Master Qi has such abilities, no matter how big it is, when it comes to his mouth, it's as simple as going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables.Ning Yao suddenly remembered the first time he saw him. This guy was a fair and handsome young lady at the time, carrying a portable energy cannon to Moon Mountain, standing with one hand on his hips in the Ning family's martial arts arena. , Young Master, I am blown away by your heroic appearance, it is really impressive.And what's surprising is that no matter how many years have passed, this person's stubbornness has not changed at all.

At that time Ning Yao was standing next to the martial arts arena, ignoring anyone and concentrating on practicing martial arts.Then Qi Lian scared away a group of people, raised his eyebrows and said to the only one left: "Hey, that one over there, do you want to be friends with me? Let me lend you my energy cannon! This is very cool!"

Thinking of this, Ning Yao's mood seemed to improve a lot in an instant. After all, he and Song Xia are different in most aspects.At least, he still has Qi Lian, Chu Shuo, and many people who can fight for him.Perhaps, he should seriously consider Qi Lian's words and live a more carefree life.Hidden knots, there is always time to untie them.

Song Xia, too.

"Is that energy cannon of yours still there?" Ning Yao asked with a smile, and there seemed to be a little more lightness in the raised eyebrows.

Qi Lian leaned his legs on Chu Chen's favorite coffee table, "Yes, I miss the old days very much."

"You take him out and throw him to Qi Yan for reformation. It must be very cool to use things to bombard people."

"By the way, how many enemies do you have?" Qi Lian suddenly became serious.

"what?"

"One person, one cannon. I will engrave my name on the cannon, and I will definitely be able to auction it for a good price in the future."

"..." Young Master Qi, you really never forget to do business, "What about your Phil?"

"I'm borrowing your kitchen." Qi Lian glanced towards the kitchen, and when he saw the figure, he turned his head and said to Ning Yao: "Let Feier remodel Chu scumbag some other day, your man It's too scumbag, the husband of the new era should not be like this."

Ning Yao just lowered her hair to send a text message, fiddled with the black hair clipper behind her ear with one hand, curled her lips, raised her eyebrows and eyes full of seductive charm, "But I like it."

Qi Lian clutched his heart and fell on the sofa, "Blind my titanium alloy dog ​​eyes, Phil, come and save me..."

At this time, in the military vehicle returning quickly, the adjutant Suoming suddenly heard the sound of text messages beeping from behind him. When he turned around, he saw that their major general had a strange expression, and then smiled inexplicably.

Suo Ming hurriedly turned his head like Qi Lian was blind, and on the terminal in Chu Shuo's hand, a text message read:

Major General Chu, come back quickly, your wife and I are suddenly a little lonely and cold, and Young Master Qi is seducing me again.
