No matter in ancient times, now or in the future, giving birth to a child is always a matter of physical exertion, and the interstellar era is no exception. Minimally invasive surgery has very small wounds, and the wound on the surface of the skin can heal within ten minutes under the action of drugs, but the healing of the surface does not mean that the inside of the body is intact. It is obviously impossible for Alston to resume exercising immediately. Ryan disagrees, and the old family also disagrees. He can only do some simple training honestly and slowly recover his physical strength.
During this period, Ryan cooked a lot of delicious food for Auston, ranging from Chinese food to Western food, from flying in the sky to walking on the ground to swimming in the water. The food made Auston's face round and round, and light physical training was fundamental. It will not achieve the effect of reducing body fat rate. The little guy who was taken out of the body was moved into the gestation cabin. The spinning cone-shaped gestation cabin stayed quietly in the baby room. The raised middle of the gestation cabin simulated the environment and operation of the human uterus. Only the baby the size of a small peach curled up With the body floating in the middle of the amniotic fluid, an umbilical cord is connected to the placenta, and the placenta is fixed at the bottom of the gestation cabin. In the next six months, Bunier, as the baby's exclusive nurse, will adjust the nutrients in the gestation cabin from time to time, Ensure that the baby has enough nutrition for growth and development.
How could it be called baby all the time, Lane and Alston racked their brains for months and finally came up with the name, Bennett Dalton, who they hoped would be blessed forever. Ryan is not obsessed with the surname, and E69's family members have no requirements. Their family history doomed the patrilineal surname to be unimportant. In the words of grandma, it is good to follow the mother's surname. After discussing with the family, the baby's name is That's settled. The first name is written in the household registration book, birth certificate and bound to the personal terminal. They also gave the child a cute nickname.
In the dim baby room, Ryan stroked the little guy inside through the gestation cabin, and called out the nickname he wanted, "Tuantuan."
"Tuantuan?" The nickname has not yet been formally determined by the two people, and Auston is puzzled, "Why choose this? Didn't we draw up many cute names."
Among so many nicknames with overlapping characters, didn't they think that Tuanyuanyuan was the least creative one at first
"Look at him, he is grouped together, does it look like a group?"
Auston looked at the child, and his heart was hit instantly, and he became soft. He felt that the name Ryan chose was very suitable. "Little Tuantuan."
"I really feel that the child has new changes every day." Ryan gestured with his hand, "When the military parade training and military parade ceremony are over, Tuantuan must have grown a lot when I come back, and I am really reluctant to leave."
The child was removed from the body and moved into the gestation cabin, which means that the time for Ryan to enter the military parade base is approaching. As one of the soldiers participating in the military parade representing the Golden Cross, Ryan could not stay at home willfully. The bitterness of parting between Ston and the child, went to the parade camp.
"I'll send you pictures, every day."
Ryan nodded, "Well, you must take good care of yourself while I'm not at home. Don't increase the amount of exercise all of a sudden. You can achieve the effect step by step. You can't get injured instead of exercising." He said in a rambling manner: "We have to pay attention to the information sent by Connor. The behavior of 'Birds of Paradise' is becoming more and more publicized. They have become the knives in the hands of some people. When you investigate, you can't use yourself as a bait, and you can't go deep into the dangerous situation. ,do you know?"
Auston knew all these things, but listening to Ryan stressing over and over again, he didn't feel impatient, but felt satisfied because he was cared about, "I know, I will definitely be responsible for myself. I am not alone, I have you, If you have children, how can you risk yourself, don't worry."
"Take Yuanyuan with you when you go out. I have modified Yuanyuan's body. It has stronger strength and a more concealed figure. I can rest assured only if you take him out."
Auston thought of Yuanyuan's current state, and said with a smile, "Yuanyuan told me a lot of embarrassing things about you." He knew more about Qin Feng Anderson from more than 700 years ago. It's a pity that Ryan lived a new life and changed many habits, including the childish side... Auston looked at Ryan who was grinding his teeth secretly, and denied his previous thoughts in his heart. Ryan's child never It hasn't been changed, it's just hidden, and it will appear under the gentle appearance from time to time.
No matter how many instructions there are, the day of the temporary separation will finally come, and Ryan will go to the parade camp to report.
At the edge of the grove outside the main house, the small starship landed and the hatch opened. Ryan, Oston and some other people stood by, and the others came to see Ryan off.
"Originally, you have to follow Auston well, and you can't relax."
He was only thirty centimeters tall, his severely shrunken original eyes flickered, and he said in a flat voice, "Follow the order, sir."
Ryan felt guilty and didn't dare to look into Yuanyuan's eyes. After coughing lightly, he made a promise, "The small body is only temporary. After this busy period, I will design a big one for you. It must be very powerful."
"That animal-shaped mecha." Yuan Chu raised his head and looked up at its master.
"That's for Alston," Ryan said. In other words, it was the new body code-named Zero.
Yuan Chu lowered his head, unexpectedly showing a bit of loneliness from his metal body, "Oh."
Ryan was soft-hearted, "You can think about what kind of appearance you need, and I can try my best to satisfy you."
"Oh." The voice of the tablet still sounded a little low, Yuan Yuan always kept his head down, refusing to raise his head, it was really, really rare for him to be so low.
Ryan felt guilty, squatted down and looked at the old man as much as possible, "I'm sorry, I can't give you a big body now."
"It's nothing." As the creature in the world who knows Ryan best and can think independently, Yuan Yuan raised his head and said, "Anyway, I'm used to it, alas, I'm used to it."
Ryan: "Tell me, I will be satisfied with what you want."
"It's not difficult for you, sir. For that white winged lion, you can make a black one." After Yuan Chuda said generously, his eyes stopped flickering, and he looked at the owner fixedly.
Ryan: "..." There was a feeling of being tricked by Yuan Yuan, but whoever told him that he had already agreed, and the husband could not follow his words, so he decided to meet Yuan Yuan's request, "Okay, I will make exactly the same for you."
Yuan Yuan's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Shouldn't you make some adjustments?"
Ryan said: "No, this way there is no need for additional design drawings, just change one color."
Yuan Yuan: "... Oh." The same routine has already been used once, and he can't continue to pretend to be pitiful and disappointed.
Ryan stood up with a smile, looked at Auston, had a thousand words to say, and finally turned them into one sentence, "I'm leaving."
"Goodbye." Alston stepped forward to hug Ryan, and before he could react, he tilted his head and kissed Ryan on the face, "Be careful."
Ryan hugged Oston tightly, nodded vigorously and said, "Well, you too."
The little starship lifted off, flew higher and higher, flew out of the transparent film and then flew westward. The old house became a point in the distance, and the people in the old house were no longer visible. Ryan withdrew his gaze. The military parade camp was two time zones away from Eve City. The drive took more than three hours. The time in the car should not be wasted. He opened his personal terminal, called up the drawing tool, and began to edit the drawings stored in it. The modification, if Yuanyuan said it was just a color adjustment, it was just teasing Yuanyuan. He would make a black winged lion for Yuanyuan, but the inner function is completely different from the white beast-shaped mecha.
The drawings on the holographic light screen changed from complex to simplified, and many of the original drawings were erased by Ryan; then from simplified to complex, the many years of his consciousness floating in nothingness were the years of continuous accumulation of inspiration, and the things in his mind More, it is very smooth when writing, there is no stagnation. With confidence, it was Ryan. In the process of full drawing, the small starship flew out of Eve City. Its speed was extremely fast, and the scenery underneath was constantly changing. It changed from a big city to a small city, from a small city to an endless farm, and from a farm to a small one. town. After leaving Eve City, the ground is no longer covered with a transparent film, and you can directly see the sky. The real sky with a little bit of haze is not a perfect blue, but it is too perfect to filter out all haze. , becomes unreal.
Ryan, who was sitting by the window, was looking at the ground in a daze, with thoughts surging like a storm in his mind, and he was looking for the most suitable combination from thousands of inspirations. Suddenly, his body swayed with the hull of Dianpo, and his blank and empty eyes suddenly became sharp. Ryan rushed to the cab, jumped into the driver's seat, and quickly operated on the panel with his hands. The driving switch became manual driving, and cleverly avoided the attack behind him. He glanced sideways at the screen, and there was an unidentified starship behind him clinging to it, firing bullets from time to time to attack, duk tuk tuk, the small starship where Ryan was on was attacked several times, and the starship system issued a warning. The opponent's attack was very violent and intensive, and there was no chance for anyone to react, in order to wipe out the small starship Ryan was sitting on in one fell swoop.
But they met Ryan, who grew up in the flames of war, has an innate sense of fighting, and can adapt to the battlefield without any confusion and transition time.
Ryan's eyes became colder and colder. The starship he was sitting on had the emblem of the Dalton family, and it was the one Auston used to take when he went out. He is just an unknown person, and it is not possible to use three small starships to attack him, so the answer is self-evident, this series of attacks are all directed at Auston. In just a few tens of seconds, two more small starships joined the ranks of attacking Ryan. In the three-sided attack, Ryan drove the small starship to dodge with ease. However, the small starship he was on didn't have too many weapons and ammunition, so he couldn't carry out a deep counterattack.
"How much ammo is left?"
The system of the small starship replied, "6 rounds of TNT projectiles."
Six rounds... too few. Ryan adjusted his direction. He must use these six bullets reasonably to maximize the utilization rate. A roar came from the right side of the small starship, and the system alarmed, "The right hull is under attack, and the right hull is under attack."
Ryan, "Shut the pilothouse door tightly, and abandon the entire aft half of the hull."
"Warning, the energy carried in this way cannot complete the full flight."
"If this continues, you will die. How can you complete the entire flight and execute the order!"
The system says: "Yes!"
The door on the rear side of Ryan quickly closed, and after a few clicks, the rear half of the hull fell off. Ryan gave the detached hull an acceleration command at the last moment, and possessed 70% of the energy in the second half of the starship. It has a completely independent propulsion system, and after the order is given, it can fly according to the command line, and it will not land until the energy is exhausted. The enemy ship following Ryan saw the rear half of the ship leaving, and subconsciously turned sideways to hide, but suddenly found that the rear half of the hull did not go backwards, but moved forward at a faster speed, and everyone was caught off guard. Hitting the enemy ship to Ryan's right.
boom!
The flames appeared in mid-air, and the huge explosion took the lives of the enemy ship in an instant. The impact of the explosion also brought a boosted air wave to Ryan, so that only the remaining cockpit of the air wave turned to the left Driving sideways quickly, I opened a precious distance from the two enemy ships. This is the distance of life! The bow of the ship opened the ammunition hole and fired two TNT projectiles, but it hit two enemy ships in an instant. Ryan raised the corners of his lips, and the flames exploded in front of his eyes. Everything was planned.
It is still the same sentence that the plan will never keep up with the changes, and three more enemy ships have entered Ryan's field of vision, and the other party will not hesitate to spend a lot of money to kill them!
ยทยทยท
In the east district of Eve City, Auston has resumed work. He will process various documents sent from the Gamma military base in the study, listen to the reports of his subordinates, and arrange work according to the actual situation. He also needs to contact people in the same camp, find out the high-level government officials who have colluded with the "Birds of Paradise" organization, etc. There are many and complicated things, but they are completed in an orderly manner under Auston's hands. Every hour, he would stand up and move around, stand by the window to look at the scenery in the yard, and see Dafu wandering around the bleating beast boredly, shaking his head from time to time and making a whining sound with annoyance in his voice And urging, as if yelling, why doesn't the baaaa beast escape or hide, so it loses a lot of fun!
The baa-baa beasts were already numb, they huddled together to enjoy the sunshine and the breeze, and they didn't care about a little ferocious beast that bared its teeth and claws and kept calling.
Often Oston would involuntarily walk into the baby's room after standing by the window for less than twenty minutes. By the time he realized it, he had been standing in front of the gestation cabin for an untold amount of time, looking at the little guy floating in the amniotic fluid. Dun felt that he couldn't leave him for a moment.
"Your father is very reluctant to go to work. He has been standing here for a long time. If the meeting time is not waiting for anyone, he must be dawdling." Oston talked to the baby inside through the incubating cabin, Put your hand on the bulkhead, and the body temperature can be transmitted to the child through the bulkhead, making him feel that he is not alone. Bunier said that doing so is good for the child's growth. There is no scientific basis, or even metaphysics, but many The data proves that during the growth process in the gestation cabin, children accompanied by their parents have better personalities than those without. They feel warmth, know how to be grateful, and tend to be cheerful and lively, while the latter are mostly gloomy and reticent, and look at the world and their families indifferently. ... In short, the company of parents is better than any nutrition, and it is the longest and long-lasting attachment.
"Baby Tuantuan, I really hope that you will grow up quickly and come to Dad and Daddy's side. It must be very happy to see you jumping and jumping. Before meeting your Daddy, Daddy's life was not colorful. I didn't expect to be looking forward to your arrival like this, your dad is really warm, he is the light of dad's life... "
There were two beeps from the personal terminal, and Oston looked down, the warmth on his face suddenly disappeared, and the coldness swept over him, and the coldness in his eyes could crush everything. "What was found at the scene, is there any..." He closed his eyes, restrained all his fragile emotions, and asked calmly, "Is there any corpse?"
The person on the other end of the communication reported, "Eleven corpses were found on the sunken starship, and a preliminary judgment has been made that they came from some remote planets."
"Did you find Ryan?"
"I'm sorry, General, but we haven't found it yet." The person on the other end of the communication paused and said, "There are still three charred corpses at the scene."
Auston, who had already left the baby room and ordered Bowers to prepare the starship, heard his heart beat faster, "Have you done a DNA check?"
"Comparing, the data has not come out yet." The man said: "It will take five minutes."
"As soon as the result comes out, let me know." Alston has already boarded the small starship, and his companions are the original and the code-named zero, and the code-named zero is in the driver's seat. His current driving skills are better than some old drivers with a century of driving experience. Even better. Alston ordered, "Rush to Windmill Town as quickly as possible."
"Yes, General!" Without any pause, the code-named zero speeded up, and the small starship rushed out of the transparent film at the fastest speed and set off for the destination, Windmill Town.
The windmill town is not on the route from Ryan to the parade camp, and it deviates by about 50 kilometers. This place is a very rare small town with a resident population of less than 5,000 on the capital star. The population of the small town on the capital star is only this size because there are many artists' works on display in the town. This town is also called an artist. The Cradle of Dreams, where the Imperial College of Art is located.
From a distance, you can see many windmills in the town. The windmills rotate, bringing a steady stream of electricity to supply all the electricity in the town. It still maintains the style of the ancient earth period, and few modern facilities can be seen here. . On the edge of the town stands a 50-meter white tower, which contains many works of art. It is itself a masterpiece of a master architect.
Today, the quiet and peaceful town has become noisy. People either hide in the buildings and dare not move rashly, or flock to the White Tower curiously to see the accident that happened in the distance. There were four small starships crashed there, and one of them disintegrated in the air, leaving only a broken bow. The bow was mottled, with many bullet marks and burn marks. It was so deformed that it was almost unrecognizable. What type of starship bow is that.
Two burnt corpses beyond recognition were dragged out of the bow of the starship, and they could only barely be identified as two males. From the sporadic and still intact skin, they could be identified as two young men.
"The accident was so big and so many people died, it was really scary."
"Did you hear what those people said, there were three small starships in the distance that had an accident, exploded in the air, and all the people inside died."
"It's so miserable. I just said that these flying things in the sky are unreliable, and the land vehicles of the ancient earth period should be restored."
"Put it down, haven't you read the history? It says 'car accidents are as fierce as tigers', and land vehicles are also very unsafe, and many people die every year."
"Look, look, there is another starship coming. The police, the soldiers, the media, and government officials are here. Guess who this time is?"
"I don't guess, I think this matter is unusual, so let's go first."
The crowd of onlookers standing under the White Pagoda was crowded, some people left, some joined. Those who left thought that they were "a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall" and went as soon as possible to protect themselves; The most important thing is that the videos and pictures taken may even be popular on StarNet.
At the scene of the accident, there were almost no explosive/powder marks on the surface of the three almost complete starships. They collided with each other and then fell to the ground to cause an explosion. , to determine the origin. Besides the three starships, there is another one that disintegrated in the air. Fragments of the hull have been found 45 kilometers away. The bow left on the scene is severely deformed, and the original appearance is almost invisible. Now the investigators have cleaned out the broken and charred corpse from the bow, and extracted blood samples for DNA comparison to determine the identity of the corpse.
What is certain is that none of them are Ryan.
What about Ryan
Another small starship landed, the hatch opened, and Oston, who was wearing ordinary clothes, came out from inside, followed by a toy-like, 30-centimeter-tall mecha, which could easily be ignored by others . The person in charge at the scene of the accident came up, sweating profusely, he could only salute hastily, "Good day, General!"
Alston raised his hand in return, "How's the investigation going?"
"Of the 11 bodies found, the identities of three people have been identified. One of them disappeared 20 years ago. He was a child missing 20 years ago. The other two are from remote planets and have legal jobs. It can be traced back to that none of these three people has any entry information, and they belonged to illegal immigration into the capital star." After speaking, everyone knew, and the person in charge next to Auston lowered his voice and said, "General, I can confirm that this is a group targeting you. In the assassination incident, they sent six starships to kill the people in the small starship. They, supposedly members of the 'Birds of Paradise', found some emblems from their clothes."
The person in charge of the police is from Oston and has military experience. He was the one who reported the news to Oston immediately.
"We have extended our search for Mr Smith and it's just..." More than an hour has passed and nothing has been found, including a body.
After a brief discussion, the search personnel believed that there were two possibilities for not finding anyone. One was that the search area was not large enough, and the other was that the corpse was concentrated in the air by the ammunition and was broken into pieces. Of course, the third point that everyone thought of but didn't say is that the enemy came first and took Ryan away.
Not to mention this, Auston also thought of it. He walked to the wreckage of the bow, and gradually became dazed and panicked in his composure. The two had separated only a few hours ago, so why did they become confused about life and death in such a short period of time? He has faced many deaths, comrades who fought side by side, close elders...familiar or unfamiliar faces, he knows that death is actually very easy and life is very fragile, but he never thought that it would appear on Ryan so soon, It's agreed to be with you until the old age, and it's agreed to have children in groups.
The reporters who broke through the cordon set up by the police pointed their cameras at the ice sculpture-like Oston. They were eager to know why the admiral of the empire came here, and whether there was a shocking secret hidden behind this incident.
"Are there any relatives and friends among the dead?" The reporter who asked the question caught Oston's eyes, and his blood seemed to be frozen. He didn't expect the answer at all. He felt that he would die if he continued to ask.
There were bits and pieces of expression in Oston's dark abyss eyes, and he asked uncertainly, "Really?"
The "little toy" who was ignored by others originally gave an affirmative answer, "Mr. is still alive, I scanned his blood in the grass, pointing to the town of Windmill, and Mr. is in the town."
After getting an affirmative answer, Oston turned around and walked towards Windmill Town without wasting a second. He walked faster and faster, and finally rushed into the town at a gallop. Bian followed Yuan Chu all the time, and after entering the town, Yuan Chu confirmed the direction after scanning, "It's the White Pagoda, Mr. is inside the tower."
Behind Orston, the reporters who sniffed out the unusual situation hesitated for a while and then followed. They felt that they were about to dig out big news.
