"Three months... What's wrong?" Carlos Black raised his neck hard, wanting to see the expression on Chu Si's question. After all, expression capture and interpretation are the most useful reference in negotiations.
However, he only saw the back of Sae Young's head, so he fell back in anger.
Chu Si was silent for a second: "You counted the days correctly? How did you get the news?"
Although Carlos Black did not understand why this sentence caused such a strange reaction from Chus, he immediately seized the opportunity sensitively, and once again made a dying struggle: "I refuse to be paralyzed here and say it, at least I have to exchange it for Indoors, you have to sit! Otherwise, don't try to pry a word out of my mouth!"
His stubbornness made Chu Si ponder for a moment, then nodded happily, "Okay, indoors, sit and chat, Your Excellency wait a moment."
Chief Chu is very polite when facing non-acquaintances. But his politeness is very special, probably because the experience of "saying thank you after stepping on your face" had an irreversible impact on his life, so that when he was extremely polite, it was often when he wanted to do something wicked and immoral.
The people who work with him in the security building are very clear, the people who have been trained by him in the training camp are very clear, and Sae Yang is also very clear, but Carlos is defenseless.
"Hey... I finally have someone who respects the old and loves the young and is reasonable." Carlos sighed while squinting at Sae Young's back, "If we did this earlier, maybe we can cooperate sincerely."
Ten minutes later, under an order from Chief Chu, the wanderers headed by Carlos Black were all forked into the dump by the training camp's five-member team, like dead fish caught in a single net.
The tipping bucket was still built on Carlos' aircraft, and it was estimated that he was older than Chus and Sae Yang combined. When it was tremblingly stretched out from the rear of the aircraft, a creaking sound could be heard.
It was something that Carlos occasionally used to salvage "garbage" in space, but now it contained 137 strays, and he, the once noble king of strays, was pressed at the bottom.
What a bastard prisoner of war treatment.
The 137 prisoners of war were finally settled in the east tower of Fort Barney, where Le Pen and the others came and went freely. In the conference room on the top floor, the aircraft that brought them up was temporarily parked on the platform extending out of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Almost all the ropes and electronic shackles in the equipment room of the aircraft were used on them—right foot with left hand, left foot with right hand, and sat cross-legged along the wall.
Chus leaned against the huge oval conference table, propped up the edge with both hands, and looked at Carlos Black condescendingly and gracefully.
Indoors, sitting and talking, no problem.
"As you wish." Chu Si tapped his fingers on the table twice, and said to Carlos: "How many more requests do you have? Just mention them."
Carlos Black's lips twitched silently, probably scolding "beast" or something, and then cleared his throat with a green face and said, "No more."
Sae Young sat bored at the table, arching his elbows against Chus, "Ten minutes, sir, in just ten minutes, you'll be reduced to a beast like me, congratulations."
Chu Si glanced at him, then looked back at Carlos and said, "I really didn't ask for it?"
Carlos snorted, "Nonsense."
Chu Si nodded, "Let's talk about it, when and where did you get the news. Say something about me undoing a person's shackles."
Carlos was still trying to say something mockingly, but after listening to his condition, he reluctantly accepted the ridicule and said, "Do you think that I will believe your nonsense because of what happened just now?"
Chu Si shrugged his shoulders: "Whatever."
Carlos has a mouthful of old blood.
He really had nothing to do with Chu Si, even if he didn't speak, he could only vomit two more tubes of blood, whether he believed it or not.
Carlos thought for a while, but still opened his mouth: "I'm unlucky to meet you two gods of plague, I admit it. Let's talk about it..."
"I got the news from them when I passed by the edge of the α star region three months ago and made a deal with another team of Rangers. I said that they detoured from your Tianying γ star field two lines before. At the time, they accidentally crossed the star field line, but did not receive a warning of crossing the line. At that time, I was a little puzzled, but because they were in a hurry to go to Kamaixing and the City of Silver, they didn't think about it. When the star area where the city is located rushed to the α star area to make a deal with us, they circled around your planet again, and deliberately crossed the star field line, but they still did not receive the warning they should have, so they played a bit of a fool, Just go straight to the inner line of the star field, and when they are close enough to the surface of the planet, they discover that your Tianying γ star is actually just a residual phantom, and the real planet no longer exists."
"Then—" Carlos Black pointed to himself awkwardly, "they sold me the news by the way. I estimated the time, your planet exploded three and a half months ago, because according to me As you know, just four months ago, that stray team landed on your planet, and it is said that they sold a message to your military? At least your planet hadn't exploded when they landed."
"Military?" It stands to reason that a team of homeless people has entered the star field to make private transactions with the government or the military. The military should have greeted the security building, but the 5th office where Chu Si is located does not directly control this. On the one hand, it is Office No. 1 that controls these, so it is normal for Chu Si to be unaware.
"The news I heard is this. As for whether it is the military, I don't know. I can only guarantee that my information is 80% accurate, not 100% accurate." Carlos Black said.
Chus stared at Carlos' eyes for a while, then simply bent down and rummaged through Carlos.
"What are you doing?" Carlos stepped back, "What are you looking for? The aircraft are all fucked for you to detain, what else do you want to turn over?!"
Chu Si said: "A pocket watch, a watch, or something that carries time."
When he said this, his tone revealed obvious impatience. Hearing that Carlos was a little empty, he quickly said: "Watch! Watch! Watch! Isn't it just a watch! It's in my trouser pocket."
Chu Si frowned, and without a word, knocked him down. He reached out and touched the pocket of his left trousers, which was empty.
When he was about to switch to the right pocket, Sae Yang suddenly got off the table, bent over and patted Chu Si's hand, took out the contents of Carlos' right pocket, and threw it back. on the table.
bang-
The metal thing rolled around on the table and finally lay flat.
Chu Si was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Sae Yang, and saw that he turned his face and turned his face, inexplicably seemed a little impatient, probably because the conversation between Chu Si and Carlos was not related to him, and it was not very possible It aroused his interest, and it was a little annoying after listening for a long time.
However, Chu Si had seen the appearance of smiling one second and frowning the next second, so he didn't care too much.
He stood up straight, grabbed something on the table and opened the lid.
This thing is very retro in style, very much like an ancient pocket watch - a disc the size of half a palm, with a flip and a chain.
It's just that after the flip is opened, the display inside is not a pointer, but a screen. Inside the circular screen is a simplified version of the star map, with eighteen dots representing habitable planets embedded in different positions on the screen. There is a square display box in the upper left corner of the screen, marking the current time, but the calculation method is different from that commonly used by Chu Si.
Chu Si clicked on the dot representing the Tianying γ star, and in the display box in the upper left corner, the time was instantly converted into the format Chu Si was most familiar with:
The new Gregorian calendar year 5714
March 17 22:09:23
He stared at the numbers representing the year in silence for a while, making sure that he had not misread any of them, and then raised his eyes.
The flip closed with a click in his hand, he held the dial and turned it twice in his hand, thought for a while, and threw it back to Carlos.
Carlos was also a little surprised: "You didn't directly take it for yourself?"
"What's the use of me wanting it?" Chu Si's frowning brows did not loosen, and his attention was obviously not on Carlos, so he just replied casually.
Time is a problem.
Chu Si thought to himself, he paced back and forth a few steps, then strode to the door of the conference room, crossed the circular railing, and glanced at the few people on the bottom floor of the east tower who were busy processing the aircraft. Kim, who was walking awkwardly, was particularly conspicuous inside.
Chu Si's eyes stopped on him for a few seconds, and finally fell on Tang, saying: "Tang, come up."
Tang Yi was stunned, raised his head and shouted, "Oh! Just come!"
After a while, Tang Feng hurriedly came up, stopped in front of the meeting room door, glanced in at the door, and asked Chu Si in a low voice, "What's the matter, sir? They are not honest and uncooperative?"
Chu Si shook his head and said, "Where's your communicator? I just remembered suddenly. I seem to have forgotten to ask you the time."
Confused, Tang took out the communicator and glanced at Chu Si, which showed:
The new Gregorian calendar year 5714
March 6 14:21:38
It is not exactly the same as the display of the Carlos pocket watch, but the difference is not much, and it is completely within the normal time flow difference range.
In fact, without looking at Tang's communicator, Chu Si could have guessed the result. He just... double-checked it, like an obsessive-compulsive disorder.
The time difference between Tang and Carlos was ten days. Sae Yang, who walked around the black hole, was only a few dozen days away from them, and the space prison...
Everyone's time difference is within the normal range, very close, except for himself.
5714, 5763, although Chus does not want to admit it, but at present, the former is right, and the latter is obviously wrong.
When he opened his eyes, it was Kim who told him that 50 years had passed.
Of course, Chu Si's first thought was that Jin tampered with the time display on the bracelet for some purpose, making him mistakenly think that 50 years had passed. But soon, this idea was denied again, because Chu Si received a message from Sae Yang after he climbed out of the frozen capsule, and his own communicator clearly showed the time of receiving the message. The second line clearly shows the year 5763.
For a moment, Chu Si suddenly felt a sense of daze in his heart.
After all, the time view was broken up and reorganized, and it was not a pleasant experience after being reorganized and broken up again. He felt that his headache was about to happen again—
Everyone else's time is roughly the same. According to their time view, it is now 5714, less than 4 months have passed since the planet exploded.
And his time was in huge chaos, fast-forwarding 50 years.
Where are the passive hands and feet? who did it? What is the purpose
"What's the matter, sir?" Tang blinked, "Your face has become a little worse."
"It's nothing." When Chu Si spoke again, his face had returned to normal, and he waved at Tang, "It's nothing, go ahead."
Tang made an "oh", and just turned to leave, Chu Si patted him again and added in a low voice, "Help me... stare at Jin."
"Huh?" Tang was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized it. With an OK gesture, he hurried downstairs, he took two steps to think about it, then turned his head and said, "You have never worried about him, have you? Put him on the edge of everything."
Chu Si raised his eyebrows and closed the door of the conference room, almost bumping into someone as soon as he turned around.
Mr. Sae Young, who turned his face faster than a book, was standing in front of him.
Chu Si said angrily, "Please walk a little more, what are you doing here?"
Sae Yang got closer, his almost transparent eyes squinted slightly, stared at Chu Si's eyes for two seconds, and said solemnly: "Someone has upset our chief, let me guess what happened. What's the matter?"
Chu Si's back subconsciously tensed a little, and then he relaxed again, "You still need to guess? Didn't you just come to eavesdrop?"
He was silent for two seconds after speaking, and then added: "Maybe you don't need to eavesdrop at all, you already saw it, but for some reason, you didn't plan to say it at all, did you?"
