The dark blue long skirt on the queen's body is a little narrow. Although it looks very design, it is completely unappealing. By the time it really got going, that dress would have a feeling of being tied down.
For example, now, the queen who is surrounded by three or four men in black will be pushed forward heavily by the people behind if she walks a little slowly. And if others didn't push, at her usual speed, her temples would also hit the muzzle of the gun.
After the terrifying scream from the woman just now, the hall was completely silent, and everyone stood still. From the angle where Duan Hengye is now, he even feels that the scene in front of him is a frozen and ironic photo, rather than a picture that would appear in real life.
In the lavishly decorated ballroom, men and women are dressed in dark, oddly tailored suits. Fright, worry... All kinds of emotions that were difficult to find on the faces of these nobles now surfaced one by one.
Out of instinct, at the moment when the panic just started, everyone gave up the most central position in the hall. But now the queen was held by the people behind her with guns and walked into this open space. Her steps were a little hurried, and the extremely thin heels slammed against the stone floor, making screeching footsteps constantly.
In addition to being retro, the decoration of this hall also has a great feature, that is, exaggeration.
In the center of the room hangs a golden chandelier about three stories high. Under the chandelier, the stone used for the floor is also very special. It was really lively in the hall just now, people were standing everywhere, so Duan Hengye didn't see clearly what was under the chandelier.
But until now, after the open space was given up, Duan Hengye could see it clearly. At this time, although the stone on the ground had been polished to a smooth level, there was naturally a kind of shattered stone underneath. jade-like texture.
Although he didn't know anything about minerals, Duan Hengye knew that this floor was definitely worth a lot of money.
Of course, the situation was urgent, and Duan Hengye's attention to the floor only lasted for a short time. He took one look and looked away from there, then looked at the broken windows on all sides of the hall.
Fortunately, Duan Hengye was observing the nearby scene along the way when he came just now. Therefore, although he followed people around the corridor for a long time, Duan Hengye looked at the scenery not far away from the window and immediately judged what was outside each window.
It had not been long since the men in black broke into the door, and Duan Hengye didn't know who the matter was aimed at today, and what purpose he wanted to achieve. However, the two accidents he had already experienced had already told Duan Hengye that his identity was very special, and he could not be taken lightly no matter what.
Therefore, although the men in black on the field have not paid attention to Duan Hengye, and they have not shown anyone they want to find in the crowd, Duan Hengye slowly lowered his head, and then slowly turned sideways. walked into the shadows.
Fortunately, this hall is a few years old, and the structure used is not pillarless. Duan Hengye only took a moment to hide himself behind a dark red pillar. It was at this time that a few loud noises suddenly came from the center of the hall.
The sound came so suddenly, Duan Hengye couldn't help but look over there.
Then Duan Hengye saw that the men in black who had already branched out to various places in the hall picked up the laser guns in their hands, and then aimed at the robot in the corner of the hall.
But in an instant, those robots were all destroyed, and some small explosions occurred.
"Ah ah—" The sound of the robot blowing up not only frightened Duan Hengye, but also frightened the woman who had already walked under the ceiling. I saw that at the same time as the voice sounded, the queen instinctively rushed forward. Because the heels of the shoes she was wearing were too high, and the clothes were not conducive to movement, after screaming, the queen fell directly to the ground.
As the daughter of the earl's family and the queen of the empire, a woman has never been so embarrassed in her life. She has been pampered for so many years, although she is at the top of the Pyramid of Power, but she has never seen a real war. So in these short few minutes, her spirit completely developed in the direction of collapse - even though Duan Hengye felt that the current scene was nothing.
In fact, it's not just the queen. After a few minutes, the strings in the minds of many people at the scene have been broken. Duan Hengye saw Wen Mujia, who was standing not far away, pale, and beside him, there was already a lady who was about to faint.
I know in my heart that I can't provoke these people, but the physical reaction is impossible to control. One after another, the sound of crying and prayers came from all over the hall. After hearing those voices, the man in black began to threaten impatiently.
Finally - take advantage of this opportunity. Duan Hengye rushed towards the broken window not far away at the fastest speed. Then he jumped out directly from the height of the second floor. He didn't hesitate for a moment, and even the man in black standing by the window didn't react.
Duan Hengye heard that the moment he jumped out of the window, there was an exclamation in the hall.
Although the physical fitness of people in the interstellar era is much better than before, and because of flying around at high altitudes every day, everyone's sense of panic about altitude has almost disappeared. But no matter what, this group of people who are accustomed to living with the help of machines, absolutely few have the courage to jump from the upstairs without any assistance.
Duan Hengye's memory was correct. Downstairs was a garden. He landed steadily on the grass and used the soft soil to offset most of the force. Duan Hengye saw that there were several suspension devices hanging above his head at this time, and those people in black should have come from there.
After just one glance, Duan Hengye immediately continued to run to the other side of the garden. If he remembered correctly, there is also a hovering pad. Although he has not been here for a long time, he still has the authority to turn on the hovering device. There are too many trees on both sides of this garden, and the hoverboard is not easy to land. As long as you can seize this time and run to the hoverboard, you can return to the starship.
As Duan Hengye ran towards his destination, he lightly touched his collarbone. As if he had a hunch, Heng Ye found someone to replace the body locator some time ago. This new tracker was smaller in size and was directly embedded in the flesh around Duan Hengye's neck.
Despite the smaller size, the functionality on the tracker has not been reduced. Duan Hengye now set up that he could directly use it to contact Nan Zhuxing and Meng Jinhuai, but he did not do so now.
Before jumping out of the window, Duan Hengye had already planned a "escape" path in his mind for a while. So now Duan Hengye didn't hesitate or stagnate for half a moment, he quickly shuttled through the woods.
Duan Hengye saw that a hovercraft was already chasing him above his head, but because the hoverboard danger warning device had not been cracked, despite the constant attempts, they still could not land in the woods.
After a while, Duan Hengye saw the hovering pad in his memory. Because of the recent period of conscious exercise, although Duan Hengye had already begun to gasp for breath at this time, his speed did not slow down. Especially when he saw the landing pad, the speed was raised again.
It's now!
Duan Hengye rushed to the position of the suspension, but an accident happened.
Just when Duan Hengye was about to arrive at his destination, someone suddenly walked out from the several hovercraft in front.
"Damn..." Seeing this scene, Duan Hengye finally couldn't hold back and said a dirty word. His worst expectation still happened. This team of men in black who came out of nowhere and for what purpose has completely occupied the Queen family's zodiac star.
Today's events are not a power struggle within the family, but more serious than that.
What you need to know is that the Queen's family is also the top three noble families in the entire Yetian Empire. No matter what happened to the empire in recent years, whether the aristocracy has begun to decline, the camel is bigger than the horse, and their security strength is absolutely unquestionable.
To be able to control an entire zodiac star in a short period of time, the strength of the incoming person cannot but be said to be powerful.
Watching those men in black come out of the hovercraft, Duan Hengye stopped in place, and then began to adjust his breathing that had been hurried by running. He looked a little too calm, as if what just ended was not an "escape", but a simple fitness activity.
Just as Duan Hengye was adjusting his breathing, the hovercraft in the air also landed. Twenty people surrounded Duan Hengye one after another, more than the people beside the queen just now.
Duan Hengye did not speak, and the group of people surrounding him also remained silent. The two sides confronted each other silently. After a while, it seemed that someone had received instructions from the miniature earphones they were wearing. Then they finally stepped forward and pressed the grabbing mouth against Duan Hengye's temple, pushing him up with force. suspender.
After the hovercraft lifted off, Duan Hengye saw the military starship parked not far away. However, from his point of view, the starship still maintained the appearance when it left, and it was impossible to tell what was going on inside just from the appearance.
But Duan Hengye knew that he had moved abnormally now. Even if this zodiac anomaly event is still unknown, then Nan Zhuxing should judge something based on its own movement data alone.
The actual situation was indeed like this. At the moment when Duan Hengye "jumped off the building", not only Ye Pu's starship, but Nan Zhuxing also received an alarm.
Seeing that Duan Hengye jumped from a two-story building in a flash, Ye Pu was almost scared out of his soul by him. However, since he still doesn't know what happened, after seeing the prompt, Ye Pu did not choose to use his authority directly, just like Meng Jinhuai told him before, he directly took people to the zodiac star. He didn't even send a message to Duan Hengye rashly.
At this moment, Ye Pu suddenly received a communication from Meng Jinhuai.
On the other end of the voice communication, Ye Pu heard Meng Jinhuai say to himself at a very fast rate: "Continue monitoring, don't act rashly."
"Yes!" Ye Pu agreed immediately, and then he vaguely heard the sound of the mecha starting from the other side of the communication.
After a pause, Meng Jinhuai continued: "The security level of the stars of the Queen's family is almost the same as that of the stars of Nanzhu. If something really happens, you won't be able to play any role."
Ye Pu heard the mecha data reminders constantly coming from there. It seems that Meng Jinhuai is really driving the mecha by himself, rushing to the planet where Duan Hengye is.
"Okay." Ye Pu quickly agreed. Then Meng Jinhuai finally said: "Report to me immediately if there is anything, always pay attention to Duan Hengye's position and status. If he contacts you, everything will follow his instructions."
Ye Pu had never heard Meng Jinhuai be so nervous. After the communication was over, he immediately started to stare at the Guangnao screen, for fear of missing a little data change.
So Ye Pu, who had been staring at Guangnao, found that Duan Hengye was now back in the densely populated area, but the location was not the banquet hall just now. After a brief stop, the hovercraft took off again and flew to the other side of the planet.
…
The moment he was escorted into the starship, Duan Hengye looked up and saw a bunch of old acquaintances.
On the way to the landing pad of the suspension device, Duan Hengye still thought about what the group of people in black were going to do today when they were making such a fuss? Or trying to find someone in the crowd. But now after seeing the acquaintances in this cabin, Duan Hengye immediately understood - they didn't want to find anyone, but planned to take everyone away directly.
Although he didn't know much about the starship, Duan Hengye judged its model from several details in the cabin not long after he walked in.
This starship is probably a little old, and it is a very popular model. It was originally a civilian starship, but many countries have transformed it into a military version.
Duan Hengye was placed on a sofa by grabbing a finger, but in this short period of time, he had thoroughly observed the entire cabin of the starship. Although the arrangement here looks like an ordinary civilian starship, just as he sat down, Duan Hengye came to a conclusion in his heart that the starship he was on at this time had indeed been refitted.
It's just that Duan Hengye looked around and didn't find any details from the starship cabin that could prove its origin. Could it be that... this starship actually belongs to a star thief organization in the interstellar space
In this way, it seems that it can be said that the position of the Queen's family star is counted in the border areas of the empire. According to Ye Tian's special decree, their security is all their own responsibility and not guaranteed by the military. Duan Hengye didn't know what the military strength of the zodiac star was, but according to the current level of chaos outside the interstellar space, it seemed that it was not too difficult to be visited by a large star thief organization.
There are many cabins inside the starship. After entering, you can see that Duan Hengye is now in a place where some "big men" of the empire are. In addition to himself, there is also the queen who has been crying and wearing makeup, and Wen Mujia, who is looking down and thinking about something, is sitting here. And... Duan Hengxing appeared out of nowhere.
After seeing the other party, Duan Hengye was not too surprised. Although I didn't see each other at the banquet just now, Duan Hengxing didn't come today without a watch. Like himself, Duan Hengxing also has the status of being "adopted by the Queen's family". Even compared to someone like Duan Hengye who was sent to do undercover training early, Duan Hengxing really grew up on this planet.
It is not surprising that he came here, and it can even be said that if Duan Hengxing does not appear in the zodiac, then there is a problem.
Just as Duan Hengye was shot in with a calm face, the two people in the cabin, except Wen Mujia, who bowed their heads, were all looking at him. The queen obviously hasn't recovered yet. She sat on the sofa opposite and looked at Duan Hengye while breathing. And beside Duan Hengye... Duan Hengxing was also looking at the incoming person with a complicated look.
Duan Hengye ignored Duan Hengxing, and after sitting on the sofa, he stretched out his hand and gently pushed out the grab that had been on his head. Then he slowly raised his head and said to the person standing beside him, "Be careful of getting caught."
When he said this, Duan Hengye wasn't quite sure whether Xingxing still had the word "missing". But seeing that the other party hesitated and finally took away the gun, he sat here very calmly - as if he was not pointed by the gun, but a guest invited by the host.
If Duan Hengye's calm look when he entered the door just now was enough to surprise people, then his current performance made the other hostages look this way with wide-eyed eyes. Even Wen Mujia, who kept her head down, slowly sat up straight, and then Duan Hengye finally saw that the other party's lips were trembling with fear.
The people in the cabin stopped talking. Through the narrow window, it could be seen that the starship had slowly flown out of the atmosphere of the Queen's family star. At the same time, the seat belt on the sofa also popped out on its own. But in this apparently remodeled starship, seat belts are clearly not there to prevent passengers from getting hurt in the bumps. Rather... to trap them.
The material of this seat belt is very special, and the fastening method is something that Duan Hengye has never seen before. After a while, he felt that he couldn't move, and he sank into the soft sofa.
After confirming that the seat belts were fastened, the men in black who had brought Duan Hengye and others finally left their line of sight and stood behind them. This sofa is made of leather, and it is very easy for people to sink into it. Strangely, after being restrained by those things, everyone except Duan Hengye could not help but sit up straight to gain more space for movement, but he let himself relax a little abnormally, and then fell into the sofa. among.
Seeing this scene, Duan Hengxing, who was sitting closest to Duan Hengye, couldn't help but open his mouth, but before he made any sound, he was frightened by a knife from his brother.
Duan Hengye knew that Duan Hengxing didn't mean to make a sound just now, but just couldn't help it. However, it was also fortunate that the other party still had some ability to observe words in these years. After seeing his own eyes, Duan Hengxing immediately sat up straight and did not dare to look here.
At this time, the starship had already flown out of the Queen's family star. No one spoke in the cabin for a long time, and even the sound of breathing could not help but soften.
Of course, Duan Hengye's current sitting position is not without reason. The sofa he is sitting on is very large, and when he leans back, a small blind spot is formed. Apart from Duan Hengye himself, no one cared about this—after all, its space was too small. But even this space is enough...
After a while, Duan Hengye slowly retracted his chin, then gently lowered his head and tapped twice between his collarbones. His movements are very fast and the amplitude is extremely small. If others see it, they will only think that Duan Hengye is just an unconscious little movement.
But just after these two hits, another starship in the tracking state that took off from the other end of the signal slave star immediately received the message.
"Bump!" Suddenly, such a voice sounded in the originally quiet office. I saw Ye Pu, who had been in an elite state, shouted very abnormally, and then he stood up straight and said to the staff around him who had been waiting for his order: "Crash the suspicious starship ahead."
"Bump..." Obviously, Ye Pu's words frightened a lot of people. Even the military staff who were used to obedience on Nanzhuxing hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "But Professor Duan is still there."
Ye Pu turned around, and he slowly said to the man with a serious face: "This is Professor Duan's own order, listen to him." As the direct issuer of the order, Ye Pu knew the danger of this matter. You know what will happen to you if something goes wrong.
Of course, it's not just Ye Pu. Everyone present knew the dangers of this impact decision. While speaking, Ye Pu couldn't help clenching his fists. If the person who issued the order today was not Duan Hengye, Ye Pu would probably have hesitated, and even guessed whether the other party had touched the signal by mistake. But whoever called this person was Duan Hengye, he would never make such a low-level mistake because of nervousness.
After working for such a long time, Ye Pu was used to giving each other 100% trust.
Although Ye Pu still didn't know what Duan Hengye was going to do, he still chose to trust him.
"...Okay, Mr. Ye." After seeing Ye Pu's attitude, the staff no longer hesitated. He turned around and sent a signal to the starship operating room, and began to prepare for impact.
