Looking at Brela, who kept staring at the photo, showing expressions of memories and pain from time to time, and Ozma, who was sitting aside without saying a word, Xiao Ran also sighed softly. But he himself did not notice his eyes that looked at the door of the medical department from time to time and his clenched fists. Only Moses maintained a normal and peaceful attitude, but looking at the three of them, he didn't know what to say.
A few minutes ago, the fleet had already entered the space jump channel. Because Orchid was in a coma, Ozma did not go back to the SMS battleship and stayed here. Brela seemed to be greatly shocked after seeing the photo, and even more forgotten My memory slowly came back after seeing this photo.
Nearly an hour later, no news came out from the medical department. Xiao Ran, who had been worried about Shirley Lu, couldn't control his worry at all. This worry was mostly based on Shirley Lu's current situation. In a state of uncertainty, the more unknown the more unbearable it is.
So after the doctor came out, Xiao Ran stood up and walked to the doctor: "How is the situation?"
"General, Miss Shirley's body temperature has dropped a bit after treatment." The doctor saluted Xiao Ran and then replied: "But a bacteria was found in her body, and it is the relationship between this bacteria and It caused Ms. Shirley to have a fever. It is not yet certain whether there is any way to remove these bacteria, nor is it certain whether the high fever will relapse after leaving treatment. Therefore, it is still recommended to keep Miss Shirley in the treatment room. We We also need to study to see if anything can be used to suppress the growth of these bacteria.”
Xiao Ran clenched his fists and rubbed his head: "Sure enough, it's because of V bacteria."
The doctor asked strangely: "The general knows about this bacteria?"
"I will have someone send you a similar medical record of an infected person later. You can try to see if you can find some suitable methods in it." Xiao Ran sighed slightly and said, "What is Shirley doing now?"
"She fell asleep after her body temperature dropped." The doctor replied, and added: "I placed the two ladies in the same ward and sent a nurse to watch them throughout the day. The general doesn't need to worry too much."
Xiao Ran nodded: "Then please pay more attention and notify me immediately if there is any problem."
"OK."
On the way back to the 25th Ship Group, Ozma also saw the papers about Grace and Lan Xue Mei's medical records, and also learned about Grace's true purpose and the origin of the orchid's power. Lanhua woke up after being unconscious for two hours. After seeing Shirley Lu's appearance, she voluntarily stayed in the ward to take care of Shirley Lu.
During the entire return trip, Shirley Lu woke up for more than two hours, ate something and fell asleep again, which made Xiao Ran feel a little uncomfortable.
However, after the doctors on the ship read the medical records about Lan Xue Mei, they also got some inspiration and quickly began to prepare drugs that could temporarily suppress the growth of V bacteria, and gave them to Shirley Lu. After observing After a few hours, the effect of this drug was confirmed, but it only temporarily suppressed the growth of bacteria but could not eliminate the bacteria.
After returning to the 25th Fleet, the return of the fleet was warmly welcomed. The people of the entire 25th Fleet knew that the fleet had returned in triumph and crushed the gay fleet that tried to provoke a war between vajra and humans. Conspiracy, and because of the efforts of the two singers, they reached an understanding with Vajra and achieved peace, and news came out that the fleet had found a place suitable for human survival and would soon change its route to the new planet.
President Glass even personally welcomed Xiao Ran and Brigadier General Perry, while Shirley Lu was mixed into the injured team and was quietly sent to the central hospital on the main island. At this time, although the story of Shirley Lu and Lanhua was only spread within the twenty-fifth fleet, it made the entire crew remember the two. Shirley Lu's popularity was already high in the crew. Now it has reached an exaggerated level. Once the news about her illness spreads, it may even trigger some irrational things among the people, so they choose to quietly transfer her to the central hospital.
As for Lanhua, she was just a young singer who had just debuted in this crew, and not many people knew her. But after this incident, Lanhua’s reputation and popularity also skyrocketed to the same level as Shirley Lu. level, it can be said that he became famous overnight.
In the main room, records of Shirley Lu and Lanhua singing on the Macross battleship were played everywhere, with scenes of soldiers fighting interspersed from time to time, while all the scenes about bugs were temporarily concealed.
On the Macross battleship, President Glass, Xiao Ran, Commodore Perry, Ozma, Captain Jeffrey, Catherine and a group of other military officers and government officials all gathered in a conference room, although the conference room was not big. , but it doesn’t feel a little crowded even though it accommodates so many people.
The first is the report on the fleet's expedition. Xiao Ran said some, Commodore Perry said some, and the adjutant talked more.
It started with the rebellion of the advance fleet on the Gaul 4 being quelled by the two singers. Then the gay fleet appeared and the war started. The bug fleet appeared on the Gaul 4 and it turned into a three-party war. Finally, between Shirley Lu and Orchid Under the sound of human singing, the bugs stopped attacking the fleet and turned to the gay fleet. They also talked about the bugs protecting humans and blocking bullets, helping human fighters escape from the devouring range of the Latitude Devourer after it was activated, etc., and kept talking. Grace's papers were found on the 117th Investigation Team, and the adjutant explained everything to everyone in a standard report.
After the adjutant finished speaking, President Glass glanced at Xiao Ran with a cigar in his mouth and a smile on his face: "Well done, that means the bugs won't attack us anymore because of the relationship between the two singers?"
"That's right." Xiao Ran nodded and said, "But we also have to be careful about Grace's group. It's best to find them all and then directly destroy the most critical network center."
"Well, just ignoring those people is indeed a trouble." President Glass puffed out a puff of smoke and nodded, and asked a little strangely: "What happened to the humans who appeared in the insect fleet?"
"Another part of the investigation team that set out from Earth jumped to Bug's home planet for some unknown reason. As a result, they were all captured. They were ordered by some voice to go to Gaul 4. I guess the voice they were talking about was Bug. Mother Queen."
What Xiao Ran said was naturally in collusion with the participants in the insect camp, and he was not afraid of anyone confronting him.
President Glass pondered for a while and asked: "What's the purpose?"
"Bringing Shirley and Orchid to the home planet of the bugs seems to be an attempt to truly understand human beings from these two foreign tribesmen. Moreover, during the battle, it was also discovered that Lanhua and Shirley seemed to be able to sense a little bit. Bug thoughts and command them.”
Xiao Ran said this and glanced at Brigadier General Perry: "This can also be confirmed by Brigadier General Perry and some records."
"That's right." Commodore Perry nodded, clapped his hands and pulled out a holographic projection, pointed at the picture being played on it and said: "When we were jointly shooting with the insect's warship, it was during these two singers' Under the influence, let the bugs leave the shooting track, and then let the bugs' warships fire a salvo with our warships."
President Glass looked at the picture on the holographic projection. When Shirley and Orchid sang and raised their hands at the same time, the insect warships did indeed fire together with the human warships, and those insects helped the human warships block many times. Under enemy attacks, there were even cases where damaged fighter planes were dragged away from the battlefield.
"But from the records and your reports, the bugs do seem to be no longer hostile to humans as you said, and it can also be determined that the previous behavior of bugs attacking humans was entirely the result of deliberate provocation by the gay fleet."
President Glass frowned and said slowly: "But how can we ensure that the peace between bugs and humans is permanent and that they will no longer attack humans? Brigadier General Xiao Ran, your report also mentioned that bugs are willing to give up some of their rights to humans. Habitat, what do you think about these issues?”
"In my opinion, bugs should be a peaceful race, and Gaul 4 is one of their habitats. However, the advance fleet has been stationed there for nearly ten years, and both parties have lived together peacefully for so many years. , there has never been an incident of insect attack, and even the insects have hidden traces of their existence. I think this means that the insects are actually unwilling to fight, and they are also afraid of causing misunderstandings among the advance fleet, so they silenced and searched for traces. So many years?”
"Over the years, we can actually count on our fingers the number of times we have discovered bug attacks on humans, and every time there has been a key figure, Grace."
"As for whether we will attack humans in the future, as long as we can protect the Insect Queen from being controlled by anyone, then I have two points to prove that this is impossible. The first is that we have two people, Shirley Lou and Lanhua, in our hands. There is a singer, and the second is that we can have more people like the singer who can communicate with insects. As long as there are these two points, even if the mother queen of the insects is controlled in a few years, the insects will never appear again. Attack humanity."
Xiao Ran glanced at everyone present and said: "Because in our next generation, everyone can have the same power as orchids, and insects will truly become mankind's eternal allies."
