Chapter 532: When I bowed my head, there was wind and rain

Zou Yu gently rubbed the bright red flowers and green stems with his fingertips, smiled and left in the military vehicle, leaving the pair of young people to stroll through the forest in the rain.

The black and white cliffs at the end of the lawn in front of them, like ink paintings, were extraordinarily hazy in the spring rain. The light rain brought a touch of dampness to this ordinary spring day, like the powder accumulated by countless small water droplets, which fell on their faces instantly. Spread out, very refreshing.

Nam Sang-mi was wearing a small blue trench coat with a very well-cut fit. The tie at the waist was completely free of any jewelry. It must be a masterpiece of a handmade clothing store on a certain avenue in Hong Kong. Quiet, just like the light rain in the sky.

Not knowing what to say, the girl lowered her head slightly, and followed Xu Le's footsteps and walked along the beautiful scenery of the forest garden. The two small fists beside her were clenched very tightly, and the rain flower rushed onto her slightly hot cheeks. , can't get any cooler.

"I..." Nan Xiangmei suddenly stopped, plucked up the courage to look at Xu Le's profile, and asked nervously, "Did you... have you received my letter?"

"Well." Xu Le stopped, nodded, and replied, "I should have received all the letters."

Nan Xiangmei smiled softly, and a trace of unease appeared in her bright eyes, and asked, "Then...why didn't you reply?"

Xu Le didn't know how to answer.

For him, Nam Sang-mi's last active show of love at Mugu Manor was really the biggest accident in his life and the pinnacle of his sense of vanity, and even... Sometimes when he recalled Nam Sang-mi's shy expression at that time, he would feel that this satisfaction was more than The development of MX was successful.

However, accidents and vanity point to a sense of absurdity. Xu Le has not realized his excellence until today, and has not cultivated Du Shaoqing's correct and arrogant psychological foundation. But the increasingly boring guy has no right to be admired by this eldest lady, so he was a little overwhelmed with the affection hidden in Nam Sang Mi's email, and he didn't know how to return it.

Probably as Zou Yu said, he is used to linking things like marriage and family, so he has been avoiding it without knowing it - Shang Qiu is a tacit partner in work ideals and a charming body owner, Jian Shui'er is a teenager. The idol or the lover of his dreams, so he can still try to get close to each other, and when he encounters a beautiful girl who is not really familiar with, he runs away very fast.

Without getting an answer from him, Nam Sang Mi lowered her head again in disappointment, her black hair with crystal droplets resting on her white jade-like cheeks.

Walking to the end of the lawn, there is a pond with countless small circles swaying gently in the light rain. Two people stand by the pond and watch silently.

"I just came back from S2, and I wrote in the letter that I am now working as a volunteer in the foundation."

"That's good." Xu Le replied awkwardly.

"What a pity." Nam Sang Mi looked down nervously at the broken grass on the toe of her lambskin boots, and said softly, "I have watched that documentary many times every episode, but I have never found your positive side."

"What a pity." She sighed softly, like raindrops falling into a pond, she tilted her head cutely, she bravely looked at Xu Le again, and said, "I should have been on the day of the award ceremony. When it came to S1, I didn't expect to encounter a ray storm, which delayed the time, or maybe I might run to the George Carlin Center to scream like those of your fanatics."

Listening to the words gradually revealing his heart, Xu Le's heart beat faster, his voice changed the topic slightly, scratching his wet hair and said, "Did you come back on Li Laoqi's boat?"

"Li Lao Qi?"

Nam Sangmi recited it silently in her heart, thinking that the tone of this man's speech was really interesting. Lee Hyo-tong, a shady man, mentioned in his mouth that he was like a little spider selling bread on the street... What a lovely man. , Thinking of this, she couldn't help covering her cheeks in embarrassment, trying to block the heat there.

Love is blinding. In the eyes of a girl who has fallen in love, no matter how boring the man's jokes are, they are probably the most humorous. No matter how ordinary the man's actions are, they can also find some deep meaning or hints or something that makes them more fond of them. factor.

Xu Le firmly supported Fan Er of an upright gentleman and kept his eyes straight, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Nan Xiangmei's shyness with her head bowed, her beautiful cheeks like a lotus dew in the gentle slanting wind and drizzle, her heart moved again. Subconsciously, she wanted to take out the silk handkerchief from the military uniform bag to wipe the water droplets on her face, but her brain quickly woke up and stopped the movement of her hands in time, because the silk handkerchief belonged to Jian Shui'er...

"The rain seems to be heavy." Xu Le wiped the rain off his face, looked at the girl beside him with concern and said, "Let's go back."

"I'll go home right away." Nan Xiangmei's voice was a little disappointed, and she said softly, "I don't need such an arranged coincidence in the future. Would you like to accompany me to dinner and chat?"

Xu Le continued to scratch his sad, wet hair that seemed to be crying. After being bored for a long time, he said, "Of course, we can leave a phone call."

Nam Sangmi raised her head in surprise, the crystal clear pearl-like raindrops on her beautiful cheeks were all filled with the words "Happy". She quickly reported her phone number in a soft voice, then lowered her head and said shyly, "I have your phone number. It's from... Li Lao Qi asked for it."

Nam Sangmi felt even more embarrassed when she said the words Li Laoqi in Xu Le's tone, she buried her head and murmured, "Maybe you think I'm a little rude, but... I don't usually do this, I don't know why. , I get nervous every time I talk to you."

Xu Le wanted to tell her that this is because every time we met, you expressed a certain emotion with an unimaginable courage, and didn't care how many times you and I met, but he couldn't say these words at all. , just stood in front of her honestly, blocking the rain blown by the wind, and said in a dry voice: "Actually, I'm more nervous than you."

Near the coordinates of 435.22.89 in the far left star field, there is a large area of stars in the shape of a water bottle. In this place called the Aquarius Galaxy by the imperial people, there is a giant planet. However, on the dark back of this giant planet, there is a satellite that will always be with you. For thousands of years, countless silent warships have quietly entered and exited with the help of the shadow of the giant planet.

Because this is the most important and secret first-level base on the periphery of the empire.

In a corner of the base, two small imperial mechanic soldiers were operating mechanical hands to carry equipment to the small battleship. One of the mechanic soldiers spoke his heavily Wedge-accented dialect, speaking to the quiet companion beside him. Said: "Other teams are preparing for the mobilization before the exercise, but we have to rush to move these hundreds of tons of equipment in before the warship takes off."

"A mechanic soldier is a mechanic soldier, Huai Cao Shi, even if you are lucky and have the greatest surname in the empire, you still can't change your destiny." The mechanic soldier said indignantly: "Join the expedition? That's true. Maybe on the premise that the main force is exhausted, we go to the battlefield to get some military exploits, and we hope to get rid of the identity of civilians and become a small noble... But the problem is that few expedition forces can come back after so many years, who dares to take this risk? "

He suddenly lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "By the way, have you heard of it? Recently, there have been rumors in the military camp that the bastards of the Federation have started a counterattack. Our expeditionary force suffered heavy casualties, even the old General Ambri... They all died there."

Huai Cao Shi listened silently without giving any emotional or verbal response. Under the direct arrangement of the Imperial Army, he quietly came to the front line and became the most common mechanic soldier, but this does not mean that he With enough patience and tolerance, he went to discuss the important affairs of the empire with these lower-level people. It was not until he heard the three words of Ambry that his face showed emotion for the first time, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Three hours later, an exercise commanded by the Imperial King of Caton County started from this most secretive military base without any observers and media reports. Regarding this exercise, the members of the Royal Intelligence Service hidden in the army sent reports to their superiors one after another excitedly and grimly, but received no response. Those dazed and angry military observers were even more affected by the fleet. Direct house arrest until they know the truth.

Dozens of night wolf-class light warships slowly lifted into the air, following the monster-class black mothership with a length of 17 kilometers, heading towards the starry sky. It was so shocking to go up.

The fleet sailed out of the thin atmosphere, and with the help of the gravitational deviation of the distant stars and the nearby giant planets, it slowly changed direction like a ghost, and drove towards the dark depths of the universe.

However, contrary to the expectations of all officers and soldiers, the monster-class black mothership left the fleet after seventeen standard hours, and stayed at the entrance of the Biping corridor, like a giant father, quietly and kindly watching the whole The fleet leaves.

The Imperial Fleet, from the generals to the lower-level soldiers, all smelled a different flavor.

Their fleet is a temporary formation in name, but in fact, it has received special training for nearly two years. The fleet is all light warships, and has undergone substantial modifications at the base, except for the necessary shielding equipment for speeding through holes. In addition, the battleship has unloaded all protective devices, leaving as much energy output and location as possible to those extremely sharp weapon systems...

The extreme battleship modification, all external communications were forcibly blocked before departure, the fleet in flight has been silent at night, there is no way to contact the base or the military area, maybe even the military department does not know about this inconspicuous medium-sized Where did the fleet disappear.

All kinds of facts and speculations made the casual expressions on the faces of the officers and soldiers replaced by caution and doubts. They vaguely guessed that this was definitely not an ordinary exercise. Could it be that the irascible and murderous King of Caton County was just like rumors? What do you mean, do you have unreasonable thoughts in your heart? But what can these light warships do

The answer to all this was answered three days later. Everyone thought that King Caton, who remained on the giant mothership, unexpectedly appeared in the fleet's internal communication system.

"This time is the most important military operation since the founding of the empire." The heavy-faced imperial general on the light curtain said coldly to the owner of the fleet carrying out a secret mission: "We will be included in the history."
