Ye Ming saw that it was not too early, so he started to walk back.
It was already dark when he returned to the starship. Although there were some people in the starship, he was unfamiliar with them. Occasionally, some of his former friends could only be regarded as not acquaintances. Because he was in a heavy and depressed mood, he just served the meal. The plate sits in the corner of the dining room.
Ye Ming silently lowered his head to eat dinner, and suddenly felt a shadow shrouded in front of him. He raised his head in astonishment, and saw Ke Sen sitting down in front of him and put down the plate.
Ye Ming's hand holding the knife and fork tightened, and his face changed slightly.
Corson has always lived a frugal life and never made specializations. He always ate with the soldiers, so it's not surprising that he would come here to eat Ye Ming. They used to be like this, sitting face-to-face in the restaurant for dinner... But that is before.
He is just a backup soldier now, and he doesn't know Ke Sen, how could he think of coming to eat in front of him
Ye Ming stared at the stern face of the man in front of him, and his heart was full of sadness and sadness. He wanted to tell Cosen who he was, but he couldn't speak, his expression was complicated... After a while, he finally realized that he was just a corporal now. , I am not familiar with Corson, and I have no reason to face him indifferent, so I hurriedly stood up to salute, but at this moment Corsen suddenly held his hand on the table, looked at him deeply, and said in a deep voice. Said, "No, I don't want to disturb everyone."
Ye Ming felt Ke Sen's hand lightly pressing against his. The temperature of Ke Sen's palm made him stiff. He quickly lowered his eyes to cover his chaotic eyes, and his voice softly returned: "Yes."
Cosen withdrew his hand naturally, and his eyes fell on the dinner plate in front of Ye Ming.
Ye Ming's food is very simple, a neatly sliced piece of roasted winged animal meat, a black pepper sauce, a glass of milk, and two blue fruits from Nassing.
Seeing all this, Corson felt his eyes sting again.
Why... even everything in front of me is exactly the same as before.
They used to eat together in the restaurant. When he saw that Harvey always ate the same things, he asked him why he was always the same. Harvey smiled and said to him: I tried all kinds of meat, but it was still winged beast wings. The roast on the bottom tasted the best, so I was too lazy to change it.
Corson asked him: You don't even eat the same taste, aren't you boring
At that time, Harvey squinted his eyes slightly, showing a bright smile, his eyes were bright and dazzling, wanton and gentle: what's wrong with this, I like something and don't change it, it shows that I am a long-term person who is not easy to change his mind.
Cosen still remembered the throbbing in his heart at that moment. He wanted to ask: If you like me, will it not change
But he was too embarrassed to ask.
Then there was no chance.
Corson's hand under the table slowly tightened, and he used all his strength to restrain himself from gaffe. His eyes moved slowly, and he landed on the two blue fruits again, and asked in a calm tone, "You also like blue fruits?"
Ye Ming was very nervous, he nodded and said, "Yes."
Hearing this, Ke Sen showed a little nostalgic look in his eyes, and said lightly: "I didn't like blue fruit before, and I didn't like its sour and astringent taste, but there was someone who liked it very much and had to eat this every time... Later I wanted to know. Why did he like it so much? He tried to eat it a few times, and after getting used to it, he found that it was really good. It has a very special sweet and sour taste that no other fruit can replace."
Ye Ming's eyes were dazed for a moment, remembering the past, his voice was almost imperceptibly choked, "Yes."
Ke Sen retracted his gaze and stopped looking at Ye Ming.
He was afraid that when he looked at him, he could not help but kill him, but before everything was determined, he should not and could not act on his own accord.
That doesn't do any good.
Ke Sen's voice was calm and his expression was indifferent: "Don't be nervous, I'm just here to see if you're still getting used to it, just chat a few words without any psychological burden."
How could Ye Ming not be nervous, sitting in front of him was his once closest comrade-in-arms and lover, but now he hates himself... If he knew his identity, he probably wouldn't sit in front of him and talk to him so calmly Come on.
Even if he finally betrayed Hicks, he could not deny that he had deceived and concealed from him.
What's more, he thinks that he betrayed mankind.
Ke Sen saw Ye Ming kept his head down nervously, suddenly the corners of his mouth twitched, and he asked meaningfully, "Why don't you look up, are you afraid of seeing me?"
Ye Ming raised his head quickly, "No, no."
As soon as he raised his head, he couldn't help but meet Ke Sen's deep dark red pupils. Those eyes stared at him like this, as if they wanted to penetrate into the depths of his heart. Ye Ming felt that something was choking his throat. , there is a sense of suffocation.
Ke Sen stared at him for a while, then suddenly lowered his head and started to eat casually, "Just treat me like an ordinary friend, don't be under pressure."
Seeing that Ke Sen was no longer looking at him, Ye Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowly began to eat, but Ke Sen was sitting in front of him, and his mind was full of complicated emotions. The hand holding the knife and fork was a little unstable.
Now Corson is in front of him, he's so close to himself... If he was told now that Roy was a traitor, would he believe himself
But he didn't have any evidence. It was a ridiculous act for a low-level non-commissioned officer to identify a high-level officer as a traitor. Even if he were himself, he wouldn't believe it.
Just when Ye Ming was in a state of uncertainty, he suddenly heard Cosen ask him, "What do you think of Harvey?"
Ye Ming froze and almost failed to hold the fork in his hand. His face was pale, and after a while, he said with difficulty: "He is a traitor."
Corson sighed softly. "He used to be my love."
Ye Ming finally couldn't help looking up at Ke Sen again, his eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of water, his lips trembled, "He..."
Ke Sen's eyes were dark, and the dark red in those eyes dried up like a sea of blood, leaving only the coldness and killing intent, he said, "But he betrayed me, he is the apostle of Hicks, the enemy of mankind."
Ye Ming felt cold all over, and the chill in Ke Sen's sight froze his body.
Corson said slowly: "Pulling him, trusting him, and reusing him...is the worst thing in my life. I should be responsible for the destruction of Fort Redrick, for the innocent dead civilians and sacrificed soldiers."
Ye Ming thought of those people's accusations and slander against Corson, as well as those smeared remarks, and his heart was full of pain.
He knows how much this person cares about his responsibilities, always keeps in mind the mission of a soldier, and is not afraid of life and death for the sake of mankind... He is obviously the most respectable person, but now when faced with unreasonable accusations from others... He doesn't make any refutation, say something like this discourse.
What kind of pain, helplessness, and sadness lie beneath these calm words, which cannot be described in words.
Ye Ming felt that any words of consolation at the moment were pale, the facts had already been established, and people could not be resurrected from the dead, he could not lightly make Kesen not blame himself, and finally said: "It's not your fault, it's Harvey's fault. ."
Without my authority, Roy alone couldn't do such a thing... If I didn't exist in the first place, maybe things would have turned out differently.
Ke Sen's hand squeezed slightly, he pursed his lips, looked at Ye Ming fixedly, and exhaled for a long time: "We are all wrong."
After speaking, he stood up and turned to leave.
Ye Ming looked at the edge of the dinner plate in front of Cosen, the fork had been pinched and deformed.
You are in pain, but I have been unable to comfort your wounded heart, because all your sufferings... are caused by me.
If I could do it all over again, I'd rather die than make you sad like this.
…
Cosen returned to his room, the calm mask on his face was finally completely shattered, and he slammed into the metal wall with a heavy punch! The wall made of hard Sna alloy was smashed into a hole!
It can be seen that bending the spoon just now is the result of extreme restraint.
There was a look of pain and depression in Ke Sen's eyes.
He just thought Ye Ming was suspicious at first, because he was very similar to Harvey, and his intuition made him not take it lightly, but he never thought that Ye Ming... might be Harvey himself.
But everything in front of him had to remind him of Harvey.
If you look at Ye Ming as Harvey, you will find familiar feelings everywhere, and deja-vu details everywhere...
is it yours...
But how dare you come back? No... A monster like you will not feel guilty at all, nor will you be afraid of death, because you are just a creation of Hicks, and you can only obey orders.
What do you want from me this time
Ke Sen's eyes were cold, and after a long time, he took out the communicator and said, "Let Brod come over."
Brod came over quickly. He came in and saw that Corson was standing in front of the wall. There was a ferocious fist pit on the wall. The Marshal, who had always been calm and self-controlled, was full of deep pain at this moment. Looking grim.
This scene instantly reminded him of three years ago.
That's what the Marshal did three years ago when they found out that Harvey had stolen secrets and escaped and betrayed them.
Brod's heart sank suddenly, "What's the matter with you?"
Ke Sen slowly turned around, his dark red eyes were full of chills, and his thin lips slightly opened: "I suspect Calvin is Harvey."
When Brod heard the name, his face changed suddenly, and he said in disbelief: "How is this possible—" But halfway through he said, he suddenly felt his throat get stuck, why is this impossible
He remembered that cup of coffee with added sugar, and for some reason, he felt that way...
Corson's voice was cold: "Since Hicks was able to transform him and let him sneak into the human army, now he can do it a second time, and it's not impossible."
Brod's teeth clenched, he remembered his dead brother and comrade-in-arms, his eyes were full of deep hatred, and he said impulsively, "I'll kill him!"
"Don't be impulsive!" Ke Sen said solemnly: "It's just suspicion at the moment, and I can't fully confirm his identity."
Brod finally calmed down a little after hearing the words, but his eyes were still red, and it was difficult to restrain the anger in his heart. As long as he thought that Ye Ming might be Harvey, he wanted to tear him to pieces, he asked: "Then now How to do it?"
Cosen closed his eyes and opened them again, with a condensed light in his eyes: "The first thing is to confirm his identity. I have one thing for you to do."
…
Ye Ming returned to his dormitory after eating.
[Ye Ming: Actually, I always eat those kinds of food, it's really just a barrier to choice, hey.]
[888: Congratulations, you are finally about to lose your horse, but the consequence of my losing your horse is likely to be executed, or a vendetta.]
[Ye Ming: No, I was a little worried at first, but seeing Keke talking to me so calmly today, I don't think he would be so impulsive. In contrast, Xiaobu is an impulsive child.]
[888: Hehe.]
Ye Ming woke up the next day and found that everyone was in a hurry to prepare something. When the accident happened, he saw Brod walking towards him and said, "Come here with me."
Ye Ming followed Brod suspiciously.
Brod stared at Ye Ming's face, with a cold look in his eyes that was desperately suppressed, he said, "I have a temporary mission here, but because I didn't bring enough people when I came out, so you go with us. Bar."
Ye Ming said without hesitation, "Yes, sir!"
Brod nodded: "I have prepared a fighter plane for you, and we will set off in ten minutes."
As a soldier, it is a duty to obey orders, Ye Ming didn't ask anything, and went straight to prepare.
Ten minutes later, Broad left the starship with Ye Ming and a ten-man team. Their task was to rescue a trapped team near the C452 base not far away.
Because the C452 base is close to the outskirts of the fortress, it belongs to a very dangerous fighting area. Due to the recent defeat, there is no human army stationed there for the time being, and it is only used as a temporary base during the war.
This mission is dangerous even if it is dangerous, and it is not dangerous if it is not dangerous. It is very easy if you do not encounter alien beasts wandering outside, but if you need to fight, it is dangerous.
It went well at first, but just as it was about to arrive, bad luck came.
Suddenly there was a team of alien beasts composed of dozens of winged snake beasts. The winged snake beasts were cunning and ferocious. Although there were usually only a few dozen of them together, the number was not particularly large, but it was very difficult to deal with, especially in the number of them. In the case of insufficient firepower, it is still very threatening.
Brod immediately ordered everyone to avoid them, but the group of winged snake beasts had already discovered them, and when they realized that there were few humans in this group, they began to rush to attack frantically!
As a newcomer, Ye Ming is naturally not good at being too prominent, but because the battle situation is changing quickly, Brod and the others can't care about Ye Ming at all, and they all fired to avoid the attack. The only winged snake beast collided and started to malfunction sideways.
Of course, you can't hold back in a critical moment!
Ye Ming skillfully operated the fighter plane. With a difficult rotating motion, he aimed the laser gun directly at the mouth of one of the winged snake beasts and shot through it!
But soon the other winged snake beasts surrounded him again, and Brod and the others were getting further and further away from him because of dodge. Ye Ming kept trying to meet them, but the distance was getting wider and wider. Seeing that the situation was critical, in order to avoid Had to flee in the other direction!
The group of winged snakes were chasing after him, Ye Ming's fighter plane suffered more and more serious damage, and the operation interface constantly displayed red warning words. The familiar mountain in front suddenly froze and swooped down in that direction! And then quickly popped itself out!
Ye Ming remembered this place. He had been here with Kesen many years ago.
At that time, Redrick Fortress had not been destroyed. It was very peaceful here. Although many bases were built and there were countless military facilities, they had never experienced war.
It was very beautiful back then... The hills were green, with clear water and lively animals.
But now there is only a mess of war raging.
Ye Ming remembered that there was a very hidden refuge in this mountain.
He quickly rolled to the ground and got under a huge stone wall. Sure enough, he found the switch here, quickly entered the password, and a solid thick heavy metal door quickly opened.
Ye Ming slammed in and closed the door before he let out a heavy sigh. Fortunately, it can still be used here.
With the level of this sanctuary, it is enough to resist those few winged snake beasts.
Until this time, the memories of the past finally came uncontrollably, and painful nostalgia appeared in his eyes again.
At that time, Ye Ming and Ke Sen came to Muhe Fortress together for official business. On the way back, Ke Sen suddenly said that he was not in a hurry, I would take you to a place, so Ke Sen brought him here.
At the time, he felt that he didn't understand Corson's behavior, that the unnecessary trip was completely unnecessary, and then he thought... Maybe Corson just wanted a chance to be alone with him.
Corson was a decisive Congolese in battle, but he was a little clumsy in chasing him.
A bitter smile appeared on Ye Ming's lips.
They stayed here for two days, and Corson was like a stupid tour guide, taking him to play here attentively, and finally they came to this mountain, and Corson told him that there was a hidden refuge here.
Ye Ming reached out and touched his shoulder, where blood was dripping, and he was still injured just now.
He concealed the sadness in his heart, unwilling to recall those pasts, all the good things in the past have now become thorns in his heart.
Ye Ming walked slowly into the shelter, he turned his head slightly, obviously there was no one beside him, but in a trance, he seemed to see a tall and handsome man standing there, the man showed him a gentle smile, Say: Harvey, this is a B-class shelter, integrated with this planet, there are five entrances and exits, you come in from here, as long as you lock the door inside, those monsters will not be able to attack.
Ye Ming nodded, indicating that he knew.
Corson added: There are 30,000 rooms, 16 dining rooms, an arsenal and a storeroom, enough food to feed 100,000 people for a year. In this way, if they are really in danger, they can also leave time for them to be rescued.
Ye Ming felt that it was really powerful.
Corson said with a smile: We have built such shelters on almost every planet, with different levels, but at least they can block alien beasts for a while. But it's safe here, so it shouldn't be used... Although we're still building here, I hope it'll never be used.
At that time, Corson's eyes were so confident when he said these words, instead of the deep coldness in his eyes like now... He had sworn that Hicks would not be able to take a step beyond Redrick's Fortress.
And now Fort Redrick is dead.
Ye Ming looked sadly at the mess in the shelter, at the dried blood on the walls, at the smelly corpse in the corner...he thought that it was finally used here.
Because of the war, many materials in the shelter were used. Ye Ming looked for a while, but could not find first aid supplies or food. Just when he was a little anxious, he suddenly remembered what Kesen had told him, and his eyes moved. verb: move.
Ye Ming followed the route he remembered and came to the storage room smoothly. The storage room had already been emptied, and there was no food left, but he walked directly to a wall, tapped it lightly, and an electronic screen appeared on the wall. .
Turns out it's still here... not used yet.
Ye Ming entered the key that Cosen once told him. This is the highest authority key and can activate the emergency reserve of the shelter. Cosen told him at the time that he hoped that he would have another way to survive when he was in danger.
They are always at the forefront of the war. He is not afraid of his own death, but still hopes that the person he likes can live well.
A small room appeared with nothing but a simple medical treatment device and some solid food.
Ye Ming tore off his clothes, revealing his bloody shoulders. He gritted his teeth and took out a healing gun aimed at the wound. This healing gun can quickly stop the bleeding and heal the wound, but it would be very painful without the use of anesthetics.
Ye Ming bit his lip, cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and finally stopped the blood from the wound. He simply put some medicine and then ate some food.
Sitting there wearily, closed his eyes.
He wanted to tell Corson, thank you, what you told me was very useful, but unfortunately... now you probably regret telling me this.
…
Corson was standing in his starship, and it all fell into his eyes exactly.
From the moment Ye Ming fell into the mountain and entered the abandoned shelter with skill, he already had the answer in his heart.
But he still watched.
He watched Ye Ming walk in the empty corridor, and finally came to the storage room without taking any detours. He found the only spare reserve left, and watched him sit there, healing himself with skillful movements. He did all this without any hesitation, obviously not the first time.
At this moment, Ke Sen seemed to return to a long time ago, when he and Ye Ming were here.
He likes this person very much, and is deeply attracted by him unconsciously, but he is not good at pursuing others, nor does he understand those romances, and even he has not confessed because he is afraid of rejection.
They are always busy, always fighting, and they don't even have time to fall in love. That time, he made an exception to delay the schedule and brought Ye Ming here. In fact, he just wanted a chance to be alone.
There is no war here, no outsiders, just the two of them. This should be considered a date for them, right
It's a pity that I didn't expect to prepare a gift. The two lived here for two days. Before leaving, he brought Ye Ming here, told him how to open the shelter, and told him the highest authority key that belonged to him. He, he loved this man so much that he was even willing to die to protect him.
So he thought, even though he didn't need it, he wanted you to know that I'd like to share it all with you.
I can't make an exception to give you more, but it's just an emergency asylum key, I can still give it to you. This is the first time I make an exception for a person.
I hope you can always live well, my love...
Cosen closed his eyes. He looked at the youth in the shelter through the monitor. The warmth in his eyes slowly dissipated, and finally became cold a little bit.
At this time, the communicator rang, and Brod appeared in the video. He asked solemnly: "I have pretended to be separated from Calvin according to your instructions, and put him in danger alone. Please confirm his identity. Is he identified? If he is not, do we need to rescue him now?"
Cosen slowly rolled his eyes, which seemed to be covered with a thick layer of darkness, and he said, "I'm sure it's Harvey."
When Brod heard this sentence, his eyes showed deep hatred, and he could no longer maintain calm, and said bitterly: "I will kill him now!"
Cosen put his hands behind his back and didn't speak for a long time.
Brod said anxiously: "You give an order! I will snipe him right away, and promise not to let him have a chance to escape!"
Kesen's eyes were dark and deep, like a barren place in the depths of the universe. After a long time, he finally raised his eyes to look at Brod, his thin lips pursed into a straight line, his voice was cold to the bone, and he said every word: "No, you go save him now, and then Bring him back."
