After sending the photo, Meng Jinhuai directly turned off his optical brain. Although I didn't look at it again, Meng Jinhuai could know just by imagination what kind of lively scenes would appear on the Star Network after these photos were posted.

Xingwang also supported the operation of a super optical brain. Despite the speed of calculation, Xingwang's social system was still stuck for five minutes after Meng Jinhuai sent the photos.

After receiving the prompt and seeing the thumbnails, everyone wanted to open Meng Jinhuai's account to view the big picture as soon as possible. And because of receiving too many similar requests at the same time, Xingwang's system also fell into a state of processing sluggishness.

It is not an exaggeration to say that in this era, everything in people's lives depends on the star network. In everyone's impression, this is the first time that Interstellar's powerful network system has a stutter. Although the webpage can still be browsed now, after seeing the refresh and opening speed that is five or six times slower than usual, everyone can't help but utter praise for the people of Meng Jinhuai and Duan Hengye.

When the stuttering occurred, Starnet staff began to deal with the fault. Now that five minutes have passed, Starnet's social system is finally running smoothly.

However, although the Internet is smooth, after seeing the photos posted by Meng Jinhuai, everyone's brains are stuck for a while like the social system just now.

The person in the photos posted by Meng Jinhuai is Duan Hengye, yes, but...except for looks, the person on the screen is completely different from the professor Duan in everyone's impression!

"[Look at the picture] Marshal Lord and Professor Duan actually went shopping and eating on the Southern Stars!

As a Southern Star! Today, my family asked me to go out to play together, but I turned it down. I really regret it...

1st Floor:

But I am still jealous of you, you and them have already breathed the same piece of air!

2nd Floor:

The original poster, I am more uncomfortable than you. I guess I was in that mall when they went out. But I did not recognize my two male gods. But after all, who would have thought that Master Marshal would actually go shopping for dinner...

3rd floor:

Cough cough cough, yes. I am upstairs just like you. I seem to have always acquiesced in my heart that the Marshal and Professor Duan are not the same person as me. So after seeing the news just now, I actually had a very unreal feeling.

4th floor:

Isn't the point that Professor Duan in the photo is so gentle? He is completely different from the person I had in mind, so what about the good cold? [cry]

5th Floor:

Hey, don't look at who took the photo. Having said that, I want to whip the corpse segment and hung the stars again. With the marshal's husband and wife in such a state of getting along, he could actually make up rumors that the two of them had a bad relationship.

..."

At this moment, not only the netizens who have never seen Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai on Starnet are shocked, but also the people who know Duan Hengye.

Now that Interstellar Day is approaching, the workload of the military department is slightly less than usual. After being idle, Yu Xinlan ran to Dongfang Hewen's home not far from her home as a guest, and had a lunch by the way.

Although Guangbrain and Xingwang have become necessities in people's lives, Dongfang You is still young. During the meal, her father put away the light brain and told her not to be distracted.

But adults are different. Now that lunch is almost finished, Yu Xinlan, Dongfang Hewen, and his spouse chatted with the latest news on interstellar current affairs, talking...the topic floated to Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai.

"By the way, didn't the Marshal and Duan Hengye take pictures of Interstellar Day together this morning? After the shooting, the two workaholics did not continue to work overtime during the holidays, but went shopping on the Southern Stars!" Yu Xinlanpo Said for gossip. Although Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai's going out was kept secret, as the chief security officer of Nan Zhuxing and the Marshal's Mansion, Yu Xinlan certainly knew where they were going.

Although Yu Xinlan has always known that neither of his two old friends is such a gossip. But at the moment when her voice fell, the man sitting opposite still put down his chopsticks somewhat surprised, and then involuntarily confirmed to Yu Xinlan, "Marshal is going shopping?"

Dongfang Hewen didn't want to talk about this topic, but seeing his spouse look surprised, he still thoughtfully explained: "When the marshal was young, his parents would sometimes bring them to Nan Zhuxing. Walk around, so he is actually familiar with the surrounding environment."

"That's it." The man nodded, indicating that he understood.

Seeing that the other two people didn't intend to gossip with them, Yu Xinlan smoothly knocked out his light brain under boredom. After seeing Yu Xinlan's bright brain suddenly lit up, Dongfang You, who was eating, gently put down his chopsticks, and then glanced towards Admiral Yu's side.

"Dongfang You?" After seeing her daughter's actions, Dongfang Hewen directly exposed her without giving any face. When he heard his father call his full name, Dongfang You stuck out his tongue and sat back again.

But at this moment, Yu Xinlan who was looking at the light brain screamed softly, and then opened the light screen.

Yu Xinlan pointed to the light screen with a shocked expression on his face and said to the two people sitting in front: "Look! Your Lord Marshal posted a photo just now!"

In an instant, the restaurant at the Admiral's house quieted down. At the side of Xin Lan, the three big and small put down the things in their hands at the same time, and then looked at the light screen in front of her.

By the way, at this moment, Dongfang You, who has been pretending to eat well, couldn't help but utter his own voice, "I want to watch it too!"

Hey, no one would be curious about Meng Jinhuai's behavior.

In Dongfang Hewen's restaurant, the air stagnated for two minutes.

After watching that state repeatedly for a long time, Yu Xinlan, who had already admitted to knowing Duan Hengye, couldn't help but sighed: "I didn't expect that Duan Hengye was such a person. Fortunately, I still feel that I am already. Know him well!"

"No" Hearing Yu Xinlan's words, the spouse of Admiral Dongfang sitting opposite her slowly shook his head, and then he looked at Yu Xinlan and said meaningfully: "This is not his private state, but His state in front of the marshal."

"What?" Yu Xinlan didn't understand what he was saying. Dongfang Hewen, who had not spoken at this time, finally explained kindly: "It means you can't compare yourself with Master Marshal."

"...Okay." Yu Xinlan sighed exaggeratedly, then slowly leaned back in the chair and said, "I'm naive."

...

Under the expectations of everyone, Interstellar Day finally arrived.

Just like what Meng Jinhuai said to Duan Hengye that day, on many planets, there are a series of carnival activities on Interstellar Day. Although the importance of Interstellar Day is equal to that of the Spring Festival, few people spend this big day at home. Every day, countless people on the interstellar will walk out of their homes and come to the landmark buildings on the planet, or in the square waiting to celebrate with everyone.

The place where the Marshal's Mansion is now is exactly at sunset, and the central square of the city where Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai went last time was already full of people waiting for activities. Finally, when the night was getting darker, a light screen appeared right in front of the square.

The carnival will begin soon. However, before the start of the follow-up project, the photos taken by Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai in the Marshal's Mansion last time will be released together with other upper empires at this time.

At this time, the night has slowly fallen down. As the light screen rose, the photo equipment on the square dimmed at the same time.

The crowd that was still noisy instantly became quiet, and everyone was looking up and waiting for the picture on the light screen to appear. A few seconds later, with the sound of music, the first photo appeared on the light screen. In the impression of the entire interstellar residents, the three words "Southern Stars" seemed to be always connected with the military headquarters of the empire. And because the presence of the Marshal's Mansion is too strong, even the people on the Southern Stars often forget, and above the Marshal's Mansion, they are still under the jurisdiction of the royal family.

The first photo appeared on the light screen. Unlike the expected cheers, the huge square was quietly heard.

This is a photo of the emperor and empress of the Yetian Empire, with their blessings on Interstellar Day.

Although it appears from the bright side, Nan Zhuxing and Capital Star still maintain the same relationship as before. But in fact, the hearts of the southern people were already very dissatisfied with the upper echelons of the empire. Now suddenly seeing the photo of the empress appear in front of him, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

As residents of the Southern Stars, many people here are working in companies or organizations related to the military, and many are even serving in the military. Suddenly seeing the photo of the empress on such a day, the atmosphere instantly became weird.

Especially after the photos were shown, Nan Zhuxing also got a sentence different from other stars in the Empire in the interstellar day blessing. The royal family hopes that Nan Zhuxing can always remember his mission in the future.

What is the mission of Nan Zhuxing?

Any Star Citizen who has taken a history class in elementary school should know this. As early as several decades after the discovery of the Southern Stars, the military headquarters of the empire was stationed here. At that time, the imperial royal family still firmly controlled the entire Ye Tian. So when the military came to Nanzhu, the empire sent its own blessings and expectations to this newly discovered planet: I hope Nan Zhuxing can always remember his mission to guard the empire and guard the royal family.

... After so many years, the imperial royal family is no longer what it used to be, but they chose this time to send such a "warning" message to Nan Zhu.

The atmosphere in the square that was waiting for the carnival suddenly cooled down.

Because the Interstellar Day event was organized by the royal family, even Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai had not seen each other's message to the Southern Stars before.

In the marshal's mansion at this time, Meng Jinhuai, who was sitting at the table eating dinner, suddenly received a lot of news. He is not interested in the activities of Interstellar Day, so he did not turn on the light brain to watch a series of live events.

"Sorry." After seeing his flashing light brain, Meng Jinhuai glanced at Duan Hengye and then stood up and took the light brain aside. Although knowing that Meng Jinhuai should go elsewhere to deal with work in a low-key manner, Duan Hengye's curiosity still kept his eyes off the table, and then cast Meng Jinhuai's back.

Duan Hengye saw that Meng Jinhuai stood by the window and turned on the light brain, and then his hand was suspended in the air. Although he knew that he had nothing to do with the military, seeing Meng Jinhuai standing there and watching Guangnao not moving, Duan Hengye finally couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

Hearing Duan Hengye's words, Meng Jinhuai finally turned around and smiled at him, then shook his head and said: "It's nothing big, it's just that during the interstellar day celebration just now, the royal family sent us a blessing to the Southern Stars."

"Intentionally?" Duan Hengye immediately noticed the difference between these two characters.

"Yeah" Meng Jinhuai nodded, then walked to Duan Hengye's side and said, "Look at it." As he spoke, he directly took his optical brain to Duan Hengye's eyes. However, thinking that Duan Hengye 80% did not know the meaning of the phrase "The Southern Stars can always remember their mission." While Duan Hengye watched it, Meng Jinhuai also simply gave Duan the story of the Southern Stars and the royal family. Hengye confessed.

After listening to Meng Jinhuai's words, Duan Hengye nodded, seemingly understanding. At this time, Meng Jinhuai took the light brain back again, and then said to Duan Hengye: "The words of the royal family will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the Southern Stars. After all, in the age when this planet was just discovered, all the stars of the empire were just the capital. It’s just a subsidiary of the star. In that era, if the capital star was in danger, the rest of the empire must spare no effort to save it."

Duan Hengye understood what Meng Jinhuai meant.

When the Southern Stars made their promises, the relationship between the various planets of the empire was still unequal. And now after the obvious change, they even mentioned that sentence again. Although everyone knows this allusion, it is really enough to be mentioned again in front of hundreds of millions of people on Interstellar Day.

...

"Then Nan Zhuxing want to respond?" Duan Hengye asked.

Meng Jinhuai nodded slightly, then he touched Duan Hengye's hair again and said to him, "It's okay, just leave this to Yu Xinlan."

As the general in charge of Nan Zhuxing's affairs, responding to major public opinions is also part of Yu Xinlan's work. After all, she was a comrade-in-arms who had worked with Meng Jinhuai for many years, so she naturally understood what a marshal meant.

Just before the light screen on the central square of Nan Zhuxing showed the photos of Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai, Nan Zhuxing issued an official response.

This sentence is not long, but Nan Zhuxing clearly stated his position and viewpoint. They said that at the moment when the Southern Stars were born, their mission was to protect the Empire and Capital Star. And now with the development of time, Nan Zhu's mission is richer and more meaningful-in addition to guarding the empire, they should guard all the people of the empire and guard the peace of the interstellar.

Most of the citizens of the Southern Stars, almost everyone here pays attention to the official account of Nan Zhu. So a very spectacular picture appeared on the square: at the same time that the pictures of Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai appeared, they received a response from Nan Zhu.

Suddenly the square, which had become a little dull, became lively again. I don't know who took the lead and shouted "Guardian interstellar peace!" Then such slogans sounded throughout the square.

Human power is incalculable, although there is some distance from that city. But along the open window, Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai still vaguely heard the sound coming from a distance. With the stars outside the window, Duan Hengye felt for the first time that "guarding interstellar peace" was not actually a fake word, but an incomparable promise.

"What are you thinking about?" At this time the dinner was over, Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai each stood on the balcony with a glass of wine, looking at the distant stars and the shadow of the city. After hearing Meng Jinhuai's question, Duan Hengye honestly said what he was thinking.

He turned around and faced Meng Jinhuai and said, "I was thinking, I have always felt that the phrase guarding interstellar peace is far away from me. But after hearing it just now, I suddenly felt that it is actually not far away and it is not'false sky'. , But a promise..."

"Yeah... promise." Meng Jinhuai repeated Duan Hengye's words, and he kept his wine glass and looked at the sky not far away when he spoke. It wasn't until Duan Hengye was about to forget what the two of them were talking about, Meng Jinhuai said again: "Since the Southern Stars were discovered and became the military headquarters, my ancestors have come here."

Duan Hengye turned and looked at Meng Jinhuai, waiting for his next words.

Meng Jinhuai continued: "I don't know how many people in the family died on the battlefield for the promise of'protecting the Ye Tian Empire' during these years. Maybe I dare not admit it casually, but it's just to keep the promise. In this regard, I, like my grandparents, will never forget it."

Although Meng Jinhuai said it in a chat-like tone, Duan Hengye read the extraordinary solemnity from his words.

Just as the two were talking, the celebration in the distant square took to the next step. Duan Hengye saw that many spectacular fireworks appeared in the distant sky, almost enclosing half of the sky of the planet. In an instant, the dark world was re-lit by the fireworks.

The light blue light was printed on Meng Jinhuai's face. He looked at the fireworks in the night sky and said to Duan Hengye: "This was cast from Nanwei Star."

Hearing the name again, Duan Hengye reacted for a moment before remembering that it was the satellite of Nan Zhuxing.

Tonight, Meng Jinhuai is wearing a white shirt. The three buttons near the neck are all open, revealing a little bit of collarbone and chest muscles. Because of the wind near the window, he also put on an extra gray long trench coat on his shoulders. At this time, under the blowing of the night breeze, Meng Jinhuai's black bangs and the hem were raised together. Compared with the marshal of the military, Meng Jinhuai's temperament at this time is more like a wandering artist.

Meng Jinhuai leaned there, one elbow gently propped against the window.

"In fact, apart from celebrating the arrival of the Age of Interstellar Discovery, Interstellar Day has another meaning."

Duan Hengye looked at it curiously, and Meng Jinhuai continued to popularize science for him: "In the beginning, this day was also to commemorate all our pioneers who sacrificed in the era of interstellar exploration. Later, it brought a little bit of nostalgia for ancestors. It’s just that time has passed too long, and many people have forgotten the original meaning."

In the interstellar world, countless people have forgotten to miss today, but Meng Jinhuai still remembers. He stretched out his hand and pointed to Nan Wei star hidden behind the fireworks, "Satellites also represent the watch of the dead relatives on this day." After Meng Jinhuai finished speaking, Duan Hengye's eyes stopped involuntarily on Nan Wei star. Although his eyes were a bit sour because of the dazzling fireworks, he still didn't look away.

After a few months, Duan Hengye once again remembered his family on earth through Nan Weixing...I wonder if they are doing well now?

Duan Hengye didn't know how shiny his eyes were lined by fireworks. Before he knew it, Meng Jinhuai had completely moved his gaze from the sky to Duan Hengye's face. He slowly approached Duan Hengye, as if he had something to say...

But at this moment, suddenly there was a sound of very rapid footsteps. Duan Hengye's perception has always been very sensitive. At the moment when the footsteps sounded, he involuntarily turned around and looked at the corridor.

"..." What Meng Jinhuai had originally meant to say was also cut off here.

After a few more seconds, Duan Hengye saw a familiar figure appear before his eyes. Turned out to be his assistant?

Unlike Duan Hengye, whose back was facing Meng Jinhuai at this time, Mr. Assistant saw Master Marshal's expression and eyes as soon as he entered the door, and then he realized that he was here at an untimely time.

Although the status is different, after seeing Meng Jinhuai’s expression at this time, the always dedicated assistant still couldn’t help but silently and gritted his teeth and chanted the name of the person who informed him to come to Meng Jinhuai. "... Yu Xin Lanna."

"What's the matter?" Although Meng Jinhuai's mood was destroyed, he knew that Duan Hengye's assistant appeared here should be something important.

After hearing Meng Jinhuai's question, the assistant couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. His Yu Guang glanced at the light brain that was obviously ignored in the distance, and then said to Meng Jinhuai: "It is such a marshal, the internal system of the military is suddenly under a very fierce attack. Although it can still be resisted, But General Yu Xinlan, who is in charge of this matter, still asked me to inform you."

Although Optical Brain is almost omnipotent, if there is an emergency and the owner of Optical Brain has not seen the information for the time being, the military department will also call nearby staff to notify it.

Meng Jinhuai glanced at Guangnao, and then took the windbreaker off his shoulder. He nodded to Duan Hengye's assistant and said, "Okay, I'll go over and take a look."

The internal system of the military department... After hearing these words, Duan Hengye suddenly felt a bit familiar. And after a few moments, he remembered, isn't this where he stole information before? Unexpectedly, Duan Hengye had some very subtle feelings in his heart.

"Wait." Duan Hengye suddenly stopped his assistant and Meng Jinhuai. He said to the two of them, "I'll be there too."
