Lu Yuan's origins were very suspicious. Not to mention why he appeared inexplicably in the center of the restricted area, his unique appearance alone was enough to arouse Justu's vigilance.
Justu was originally sitting by the window, but when he saw Yoriga and the others surrounding the black-haired, black-eyed male insect like the moon surrounded by stars, he finally stood up and walked over, his military boots making a dull sound as they stepped on the ground.
"Your Mightiness-"
Justu pulled the team member who was blocking his way aside and stopped in front of the medical bed. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but even though he was smiling, the look he gave Lu Yuan was filled with vigilance and caution: "Although this question is a bit presumptuous, could you tell me your name and address, and why you are in the contaminated restricted area?"
This was probably the most polite thing Justu had ever said since the moment they met.
Lu Yuan had already discovered that among this group of strange "aliens", the silver-haired man was the most perceptive. Hearing this, he raised his hand and touched the back of his head, pretending to be thinking hard, and frowned, saying, "I'm sorry, I may have accidentally hit my head when I fell down the mountain. Now my memory is a little confused and I can't remember anything."
Lu Yuan would not reveal anything until he had figured out the surrounding situation.
Yustu obviously didn't believe it and was skeptical: "Are you sure you don't remember anything?"
Lu Yuan lay on the bed, nodded weakly, and pretended to be very sorry: "I'm really sorry, I can't remember anything..."
There has never been a male insect with black hair and black eyes on the planet Salilanfa, not even a female insect.
Lu Yuan did not panic at all, and lied without blushing or beating his heart. The weary sunlight outside the window squeezed in, giving his handsome face a layer of empty gold. "I can't rule out the second possibility. After all, I have lost my memory."
Justu frowned slightly when he heard this, probably because he thought the name was a bit strange. He opened the terminal program on his wrist and lowered his eyes and said, "Due to the scarcity and preciousness of male insects, except for those abducted by interstellar pirates, the identity information of almost every male insect on the planet Salilanfa is recorded. If you are a legal resident, I believe your identity record should be in the file... Oh, I'm sorry, the data shows that there is no male insect named 'Lu Yuan' in the Empire."
He could barely guess the meaning of the first word, Lu Yuan, but he couldn't understand the second one at all. Damn it, if I had known I would have listened carefully in Chinese class before, but now I can't even understand what people say.
Lu Yuan decisively chose the third option: "Sorry, I think I may have remembered my name wrong."
The dirt on his face was wiped clean, and his eyes became deep and bright. His pupils were like stars under the night sky, mysterious and indescribable.
Yoriga on the side said indignantly: "You must be a male insect abducted by space pirates, otherwise how could you be so miserable? You don't even have a decent set of clothes, and your whole body is covered with wounds. Those guys deserve to die!"
"That's impossible," Lu Yuan selectively ignored the fact that he had been involved in gang fights in the past, "I believe that whether before or after I lost my memory, I must have been a law-abiding and good citizen."
Yusitu closed the database information in the terminal, looked at Lu Yuan again, and said slowly: "Sir, there are three possibilities now. First, you are an illegal resident. Second, you have been robbed by interstellar pirates. Third, you remembered your name wrongly."
"How far is it?"
All the female soldiers present, except Justu, felt sorry for him and tried to comfort him, "Sir, please don't worry. We have already reported the case to the military medical center. I believe you will get the best treatment there."
Yusitu looked at Lu Yuan and said, "What about your name? Sir, I think you should remember your name, right?"
Lu Yuan was indeed quite polite. Even when faced with Justu's unfriendly attitude, he never got angry. He didn't look like a criminal at all.
Justu pointed to the dial-shaped micro-terminal on his wrist, where the camera was flashing a red dot. He stared at Lu Yuan deeply, his eyes were ruby-red, which reminded people of the noble vampires in the Western castles. "But I compared the facial data, and there is no male insect that meets your requirements. Are you sure?"
Male insect
That face was too confusing. Yusitu subconsciously avoided Lu Yuan's sight and pointedly reminded him, "Excuse me, you might be an illegal resident."
Lu Yuan thought that he could certainly remember this, and said uncertainly: "Lu Yuan? I think my name is Lu Yuan?"
No one would suspect that he was lying, including Chong.
Star pirates
After thinking for a while, Lu Yuan finally decided that he didn't understand and it would be better to ask, so he frowned and asked, "Um... what does male insect mean?"
As soon as he said this, almost all the bugs in the cabin looked over, their expressions unable to hide their surprise. They had heard of bugs that had lost their memory after hitting their heads, but they had never heard of a bug that could even forget something like its gender.
"…" The air was silent for a few seconds, and fell into an inexplicable awkwardness. Just when everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do, a sneer suddenly broke the silence. Justus spread his hands nonchalantly, walked back to his seat and said:
"I think this Excellency doesn't look like he has lost his memory, but more like he has become stupid."
Justu always likes to watch the fun, and after saying this, he lazily fell into the chair, looking boneless. Fortunately, the volume of his last few words was not loud, and Lu Yuan did not hear it clearly.
Lu Yuan looked at Yoriga: "What did he just say?"
Yoriga's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly spoke up to make amends: "He... he said that you looked seriously ill."
Lu Yuan is not deaf: "Did he call me stupid?"
Military females always have sharp hearing. Justu, who was standing by, heard their conversation and suddenly "kindly" reminded them, "If you feel offended, you can sue me at the Male Insect Protection Association when you get to the military medical center. Given the scarcity of male insects, the judge will definitely rule in your favor, and I will have to pay you a large sum of money and be detained for three days..."
After speaking, Justu suddenly turned his head and smiled at Lu Yuan. His dense eyelashes drooped slightly, and the corners of his eyes were raised. His face was like the most outstanding work of the Creator, but it was hiding a little danger and interest that was not easy to detect. He shook the gun in his hand and said half-truthfully: "The premise is that you can reach the medical center alive, because I will probably kill you on the way~"
He had been to the battlefield three times since he became an adult, killing monsters and female insects, but never male insects. It was still a long way from here to the medical center, and the warships were all his subordinates. Even if he killed someone on the way, he could just find a reason to say that the other party died in the restricted area, and no insect would pursue it.
It seemed that what was wrapped under Justu's straight military uniform was not flesh and blood, but a rebellious and heretical character, making him look even more out of place than Lu Yuan, the outsider.
Yoriga was troubled by Justu's stubborn appearance, so he stepped forward and shouted in a low voice, "Justu, stop it! Even if you are the seventh prince of the empire, the Insect Emperor will not protect you if you break the law!"
Yusitu ignored him and just stared at Lu Yuan with interest: "Hey, sir, would you like to consider my suggestion? It sounds quite cost-effective, doesn't it?"
“No need,” Lu Yuan was not so petty, especially since the other party had bandaged his wound, “You seem to hate me?”
Yoriga was worried that Justu would say something he shouldn't, so he quickly explained, "Sir, he didn't mean that. If you have to find a reason, it's probably... maybe it's because you unloaded his gun?"
Lu Yuan then remembered that when they first met, he seemed to have kicked away Justu's gun: "Just because of this?"
For some reason, Justu, who was standing by, suddenly snorted coldly and turned his head to look out the window.
Yoriga smiled and said, "There is a saying in the Salilan Empire that a true warrior will never leave his gun unless the smoke of the distant battlefield has cleared. Whoever takes away your gun will become your destined nemesis."
"You have taken away Justu's gun. Maybe you will become his nemesis in the future."
Finally, Joriga said half-truthfully: "You will be entangled with his fate."
Lu Yuan wondered what era it was, why were people still so superstitious? His attention was focused on another thing: "Are you all warriors?"
No wonder they are all wearing military uniforms.
Yoriga sighed, now he was really sure that Lu Yuan didn't remember anything. He opened the terminal program on his wrist and projected a picture in the air. He saw a purple planet floating quietly in the universe, quiet and beautiful: "Do you still remember Salilan Law?"
Lu Yuan pretended to be in deep thought, then shook his head decisively: "I don't remember."
Yoriga was not surprised at all, and began to explain to Lu Yuan diligently: "Salilanfa is the planet we are living on, and each of us is a citizen of the Salilanfa Empire."
When Lu Yuan heard the word he said, his eyelids twitched violently: "Insect?"
Yoriga nodded, "Yes, Bug."
Yoriga pointed at Lu Yuan, then at Justu and the others, and explained earnestly: "You are a rare and precious male insect, and we are strong female insects. Every female insect shoulders the responsibility of defending the empire, and must serve in the battlefield after adulthood... We are all military females."
But Lu Yuan still didn't understand what "bug" meant. He frowned and asked tentatively, "So you are all...bugs?"
Yoriga corrected him: "Sir, you are also a bug, a precious male bug."
