Chapter 72: an attack

Whether in ancient times, now, or in the future, having a child is always a matter of physical exertion, and the interstellar age is no exception. The minimally invasive surgical wound is very small, and the wound on the skin surface can be healed in less than ten minutes under the action of medicine, but the surface healed does not mean that the inside of the body is in good condition. It is obviously impossible for Auston to resume exercising immediately. Ryan disagrees, and his family also disagrees. He can only do some simple training honestly and slowly recover his strength.

During this period, Ryan made a lot of delicious food for Auston, from Chinese food to Western food, from flying in the sky to walking on the ground to swimming in the water. After eating, Auston's face was rounded, and light physical training was fundamental. It will not achieve the effect of reducing body fat rate. The little guy was taken out of the body and moved into the incubator. The spun cone-shaped incubator quietly stayed in the baby room. The raised middle of the incubator simulates the environment and operation of the human uterus. Only the peach-sized baby is curled up. As the body floats in the middle of the amniotic fluid, an umbilical cord is attached to the placenta, which is fixed at the bottom of the incubator. In the next six months, Bunir, as the baby's exclusive nurse, will adjust the nutrients in the incubator from time to time. Ensure that your baby has adequate nutrition for growth and development.

How could it be always called the baby, Lane and Auston racked their brains for months, and finally came up with the name, Bennett Dalton, who they wanted the baby to be forever blessed. Lane is not obsessed with surnames, and E69's family has no requirements. The family history of their family has determined that the paternal surname is not important. In grandma's words, it is good to follow the mother's surname. After consultation with the family, the baby's name That's settled. The name is written in the household registration book, birth certificate and binding personal terminal, and they also gave the child a cute nickname.

In the dim baby room, Ryan stroked the little guy inside across the gestation cabin, and called out the nickname he wanted, "Tuan Tuan."

"Tuan Tuan?" The two people who took the nickname have not yet been officially decided, and Auston wondered, "Why did you choose this? We didn't draw up a lot of cute names."

Among so many nicknames with overlapping characters, didn't they think Tuanyuanyuan was the least creative at first?

"Look at him, all together, doesn't he look like a bunch."

Auston looked at the child, and his heart was instantly hit and softened. He felt that the name that Ryan chose was particularly suitable. "Small group."

"I really feel that the child has a new change every day." Ryan gestured with his hand. "When the military parade training and the military parade ceremony are over, Tuantuan must have grown a lot when I come back. I really don't want to leave."

The child is taken out of the body and moved into the incubator, which means that the time for Ryan to enter the military parade base is coming. As one of the soldiers who participated in the military parade on behalf of the Golden Crusade, Ryan could not stay at home willfully. After the bitter parting of Ston and the child, he went to the parade camp.

"I'll send you pictures, every day."

Ryan nodded, "Well, you must protect yourself when I'm not at home. Don't increase the amount of exercise all at once. You can achieve the effect gradually. You can't get injured without exercising your body." He rambled: "We can't ignore the information sent by Connor. The behavior of 'birds of paradise' is becoming more and more public. They have become knives in the hands of some people. You can't use your body as bait or go deep into danger when you investigate. ,do you know?"

Allston knew all these things, but listening to Ryan emphasize over and over again, he did not feel impatient, but felt satisfied because he was cared for, "I know, I will definitely be responsible for myself. I am not alone, I have you, If you have children, how can you risk yourself, don't worry."

"When you go out, you have to bring Yuan Chu. I have modified Yuan Chu's body. The force value is stronger, and the figure is more concealed. Only when you go out with him can I rest assured."

Auston thought of Yuan Chu's current appearance, and smiled and said, "Yuan Chu told me a lot of your embarrassing things." He knew more about Qin Feng Anderson more than 700 years ago, who would have thought that he was in a high position The president has such a childish side. It's a pity that Ryan lived a new life and changed many habits, including the childish side... Auston looked at Ryan, who was grinding his teeth secretly, and denied the previous thoughts in his heart. Ryan's child face It was never changed, it was just hidden, and from time to time it appeared under the surface of mildness.

No matter how much he was told, the day of temporary separation finally came, and Ryan was going to the parade camp to report.

On the edge of the woods outside the main house, the small starship stopped, the hatch opened, Ryan, Auston and some other people stood by, and the others came to see Ryan off.

"In the beginning, we had to follow Auston well, and we couldn't relax."

With a height of only thirty centimeters, the severely shrunk original eyes flickered, and the flat voice said without hesitation: "Follow the order, sir."

Ryan guiltily didn't dare to look into the original eyes, and after a light cough, he made a promise, "The small body is only temporary. After this period of work is over, I will design a big one for you, which will definitely be extraordinarily powerful."

"That beast-shaped mecha." Yuan Chu raised his head and looked up at his master.

"That's for Auston," Lane said. In other words, it's a new body code-named Zero.

Yuan Chu lowered his head, and even showed a bit of loneliness from his metal body, "Oh."

Ryan softened, "You can think about what kind of appearance you need, and I can try my best to satisfy it."

"Oh." The flat's voice still sounded a little low, Yuan Chu kept his head down and refused to raise his head. It was really rare for him to be so low.

Ryan felt guilty, squatted down and tried his best to look at the old man, "I'm sorry, I can't give you a big body right now."

"It's nothing." As the self-thinking creature who knows Ryan best in the world, Yuan Chu raised his head and said, "Anyway, I'm used to it, alas, I'm used to it."

Ryan: "Tell me what you want, I will be satisfied."

"It's not hard to be embarrassed, sir, you can make a black one for that white winged lion." Yuan Chu said generously, his eyes stopped flickering, and he looked at the master fixedly.

Ryan: "..." There was a feeling of being stuck by the original routine, but who told him that he had already agreed, and the man's words were hard to follow, so he decided to meet the original request, "Okay, I will do the exact same thing for you."

Yuan Chu's eyes flickered and he asked, "Aren't you going to make some adjustments?"

Lane said: "No, so there is no need for additional design drawings, just a color change."

Yuan Chu: "...Oh." The same routine has been used once, and he can no longer pretend to be pitiful and lost.

Ryan stood up with a laugh, looked at Auston, and had a thousand words to say, and finally turned it into one sentence, "I'm leaving."

"Goodbye." Auston stepped forward and hugged Ryan, and when he didn't react, he turned his head and kissed Ryan's face, "Be careful."

Ryan hugged Auston tightly, nodded vigorously and said, "Well, so do you."

The small starship lifted off, flew higher and higher, flew out of the transparent film, and flew towards the west. The old house became a point in the distance, and people in the old house could no longer see it. Lane retracted his sight. The parade camp was two time zones away from Eve City. The drive took more than three hours. The time in the car could not be wasted. Modification, to Yuan Yuan, if he just adjusts one color, he will just tease Yuan Yuan. He will make Yuan Yuan a black winged lion, but the inner function is completely different from the white beast-type mecha.

The drawings on the holographic light screen changed from complicated to simplified, and the original drawings were erased a lot by Ryan; from simplified to complicated again, the many, many years when his consciousness was floating in nothingness were the years of accumulation of inspiration, the things in his mind More, it is very smooth when writing, there is no stagnation. With confidence, he was talking about Ryan. In the process of drawing fullness, the little starship flew out of Eve City, its speed was extremely fast, and the scenery underneath was constantly changing, from a big city to a small city, from a small city to an endless farm, and from a farm to a small one. town. After leaving the city of Eve, the ground is no longer covered with a transparent film, and you can directly see the sky. The real sky with a little haze is not a perfect blue, but it is too perfect to filter out all the haze. , instead becomes unreal.

Ryan, who was sitting by the window, looked at the ground absentmindedly, with storm-like thoughts surging in his mind, looking for the most suitable combination from thousands of inspirations. Suddenly, his body swayed with Dianpo's hull, and his blank and empty eyes suddenly became sharp. Ryan rushed to the cab, jumped into the driver's seat, and quickly operated on the panel, automatically. The driving was switched to manual driving, deftly dodging the attack from behind. He glanced sideways at the screen, and there was a starship behind him that was biting tightly, firing bullets from time to time to attack, tuk-tuk, the little starship where Ryan was attacked several times, and the starship system issued a warning. The opponent's attack was very violent and intensive, and they didn't give people a chance to react at all, in order to annihilate the little starship that Ryan was sitting on in one fell swoop.

But they met Ryan, a man who grew up in the fire of war, with an innate sense of battle, and would be able to adapt to the battlefield without any daze and transition time.

Ryan's eyes became colder and colder. The starship he was on had the emblem of the Dalton family, which was the one that Auston used to sit on when he went out. He is just a nobody, so he won't use three small starships to attack him, so the answer is self-evident, this series of attacks are all aimed at Auston. In just a few tens of seconds, two more small starships joined the ranks of attacking Ryan. In the three-sided attack, Ryan drove the small starship to dodge with ease. However, the small starship he was sitting on didn't have too many weapons and ammunition, so he couldn't fight back in depth.

"How much ammo left?"

Starship's system replied, "6 TNT projectiles."

Six rounds...too few. Ryan adjusted his direction. He had to use the six projectiles reasonably to maximize the utilization rate. A roar came from the right side of the small starship, and the system alarmed, "The right hull is attacked, and the right hull is attacked."

Ryan, "Close the cockpit door and discard all the rear half of the hull."

"Warning, the energy on board will not be able to complete the full flight."

"If it goes on like this, I will die. How can I complete all the flights and execute the order!"

The system said: "Yes!"

The door on the back of Ryan closed quickly, and after a few clattering sounds, the second half of the hull fell off. At the last moment, Ryan gave the detached hull an order to speed up, and the second half of the starboard possessed 70% of the energy. It has a completely independent propulsion system. After the command is given, it can fly according to the commanded line, and it will not land until the energy consumption is clean. The enemy ship that followed Ryan saw the second half detached, and subconsciously turned to hide, only to find that the second half of the ship did not go backward, but slammed forward at a faster speed, when everyone was caught off guard. It hit the enemy ship on Ryan's right.

boom!

The fire appeared in the air, and the huge explosion instantly took away the life in the enemy ship. The impact of the explosion also brought boosted air waves to Ryan, so that only the remaining cockpit of the air waves turned to the left. Driving fast on the side, and opened a precious distance with the two enemy ships, this is the distance of life! The bow of the ship opened the ammunition hole and fired two TNT projectiles, but they hit two enemy ships in an instant. Ryan raised his lips, and the flames burst in front of his eyes. Everything was planned.

It's still the same sentence that the plan will never catch up with the changes, and three more enemy ships have entered Ryan's field of vision.

In the Dongcheng District of Eve City, Auston has resumed work. He will process various documents sent from the Gamma military base in his study, listen to reports from his subordinates, and arrange work according to the actual situation. He also has to contact people in the same faction, find out the top government officials who have colluded with the "Bird of Paradise" organization, etc. There are many and complicated things, but they are done in an orderly manner under Auston's hands. Every hour, he would stand up and move around, standing by the window to look at the scenery in the yard, seeing Dafu wandering around the baa baa beast bored, shaking his head from time to time and making a whining sound with annoyance in his voice And urging, as if shouting Baa Baa, why can't the beast escape or hide, so it loses a lot of fun!

The baa baa beast was already numb, huddled together to enjoy the sunshine and the breeze, not caring about the little beast beside him who was clawing and screaming constantly.

Often Auston would walk into the baby room involuntarily within 20 minutes of standing by the window. When he reacted, he had no idea how long he had been standing in front of the incubator, looking at the little guy floating in the amniotic fluid, Auston said: He felt that he couldn't leave him for a moment.

"Your father is very reluctant to go to work. He has been standing here for a long time. If it wasn't for the gathering time, he would have been dawdling." Auston spoke to the baby inside through the gestation cabin, Hands are attached to the bulkhead, and the body temperature can be transmitted to the child through the bulkhead, making him feel that he is not alone. Bunir said that doing so is beneficial to the child's growth. There is no scientific basis, even metaphysics, but many The data proves that children who are accompanied by their parents during this period of growth in the gestation cabin have a better personality than those who do not. They experience warmth, are grateful, and tend to be cheerful and lively, while most of the latter are gloomy and taciturn, looking at the world and their families indifferently. In short, the company of parents is better than any nutrition, and it is the most affectionate and long-lasting attachment.

"Baby Tuantuan, I really hope you grow up quickly and come to Daddy and Daddy's side. It must be very joyful to watch you jump and dance. Before you met your Daddy, Daddy's life was not colorful, completely I didn't expect that I would look forward to your arrival like this, your father is really warm and the light in my father's life..."

There were two beeps from the personal terminal, Auston looked down, the warmth on his face suddenly disappeared, and the coldness in his eyes swept over, and the coldness in his eyes could crush everything. "What was found at the scene, is there..." He closed his eyes, restrained all his fragile emotions, and asked calmly, "Are there any dead bodies?"

The person on the other end of the communication reported, "Eleven corpses were found on the sunken starship, and a preliminary judgment has been made that they came from some remote planets."

"Have you found Ryan?"

"Sorry General, I haven't found it yet." The person on the other end of the communication paused and said, "There are three charred bodies at the scene."

Auston, who had left the baby room and instructed Bowers to prepare the starship, heard his heart beat faster, "Have you done a DNA check?"

"It's being compared, and the data hasn't come out yet." The man said, "It will take five minutes."

"As soon as the results come out, tell me immediately." Auston has already boarded the small starship, accompanied by Yuanyuan and code-named zero, and code-named zero is in the driver's seat. His current driving skills are better than some old drivers with hundreds of years of driving experience. Even better. Allston ordered, "Get to the windmill town as quickly as possible."

"Yes, General!" Without any pause, the code-named Zero accelerated, and the little starship rushed out of the transparent film at the fastest speed and set off towards the destination windmill town.

The windmill town was not on Lane's route to the parade camp, and was about fifty kilometers off. This place is a very sparse town with a permanent population of less than 5,000. As a small town on the Capital Star, the population is only this size because the town displays the works of many artists. This town is also called an artist. The cradle of dreams, is where the Imperial Academy of Arts is located.

From a distance, you can see that there are many windmills in the town. The rotation of the windmills brings a steady stream of electricity to supply all the electricity in the town. It still maintains the style of the ancient earth period, and it is rare to see modern facilities. . On the edge of the town stands the 50-meter white tower, which houses many works of art. It is the masterpiece of the architect itself.

Today, the quiet and peaceful town has become noisy. People either hide in the building and dare not move, or flock to the White Tower curiously to watch the accident in the distance. There were four small starships that fell there, and one of them disintegrated in the air, leaving only a broken bow, mottled, with many bullet marks and burn marks, it was so deformed that it was almost unrecognizable. What type of starship bow is it?

Two corpses burned beyond recognition were dragged out from the bow of the starship, and they could only be identified as two males, but from the sporadic still intact skin, they could be identified as two young men.

"It was a big accident, and a lot of people died. It's terrifying."

"Have you heard what those people said, there were three small starships in the distance that had an accident, and the ones exploded in the air, and all the people inside died."

"It's so miserable, I just said that these things flying around in the sky are unreliable, and the land-driven cars in the ancient earth period should be restored."

"Take it down, haven't you read the history, it says 'traffic accidents are as fierce as tigers', and land vehicles are also very unsafe, and many people die every year."

"Look, you see, another star ship is coming. The police are here, the soldiers are here, the media is here, and government officials are here. Guess who it is this time?"

"I don't guess, I think this matter is unusual, let's go first."

The crowd of onlookers standing under the White Pagoda was crowded, some people left, some people joined, those who left thought that "a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall", and went as soon as possible to protect themselves; What's more, the videos and pictures that were shot might even be able to be searched on Star.com.

At the scene of the accident, the three almost complete starships had almost no explosive/drug scars on their surfaces. They collided with each other and fell to the ground, causing an explosion. All the people on the starship were killed, and no one was spared. The corpses have been cleaned up, and the police are conducting facial scans. , determine the origin. Outside the three star ships, there is another one that disintegrated in the air. Fragments of the hull have been found 45 kilometers away. The bow of the ship left at the scene is severely deformed, and it is almost impossible to see its original appearance. Now the investigators have cleaned up the broken and charred body from the bow of the ship, extracted blood samples for DNA comparison, and determined the identity of the body.

To be sure, none of them were Ryan.

What about Ryan?

Another small starship landed, the hatch opened, and Auston walked out in his uniform, followed by a toy-like, 30-centimeter-tall mecha, which was easily overlooked. . The person in charge of the accident scene came up, sweating profusely, he could only saluted, "General, good day!"

Auston raised his hand in return, "How's the investigation going?"

"The identities of three of the 11 corpses found have been determined. One of them was missing 20 years ago and was a lost child in a case of missing children 20 years ago. The other two were from remote planets and had legitimate jobs. It can be traced back, these three people have no entry information, they are illegally smuggled into the capital star." After everyone knew, the person in charge next to Auston lowered his voice and said: "General, we can be sure that this is against you together. In the assassination incident, they sent six starships to kill the people inside the small starships. They, who should be members of the 'Birds of Paradise', found some emblems from their clothes."

The person in charge of the police is from Auston. He has military experience. He was the one who reported the news to Auston for the first time.

"We've expanded our search for Mr. Smith, it's just..." More than an hour passed and nothing was found, including a body.

After a short discussion, the searchers believed that there were two possibilities for finding no one. One was that the search area was not large enough, and the other was that the body was concentrated in the air by ammunition and was broken into pieces of meat. Of course, the third point that everyone thought about but didn't say was that the enemy came first and took Ryan away.

Not to mention this, Auston also thought of it. He walked to the wreckage at the bow of the ship, and he gradually became dazed and panicked in his calmness. It was obvious that the two separated only a few hours ago. He has faced many, many comrades who fought side by side, close elders... Familiar or unfamiliar faces, he knows that death is actually very easy and life is very fragile, but he never thought that it would appear on Ryan so quickly. , agreed to accompany to grow old, agreed to have children in groups.

The reporters who broke through the cordon set by the police pointed their cameras at the ice-sculpted Auston. They eagerly wanted to know why the imperial admiral came here and whether there was a shocking secret behind this incident.

"Are there any relatives or friends among the deceased?" The reporter who asked the question caught Auston's eyes, and his blood seemed to be frozen. He didn't expect an answer at all. He felt that he would die if he continued to ask.

Auston's eyes that were as dark as abyss were filled with gleams, and he asked uncertainly, "Really?"

The "little toy" that was ignored by others originally gave a positive answer, "Mr. is still alive, I scanned his blood in the grass, and pointed to the windmill town, the gentleman is in the town."

After getting the affirmative answer, Auston did not delay for a second, turned around and walked towards the windmill town, he walked faster and faster, and finally rushed into the town in a mad dash, his feet Bian always followed Yuan Chu, and after entering the town, Yuan Chu determined the direction after scanning, "It's the White Pagoda, Mr. is in the tower."

Behind Auston, the reporters, who had sensed the unusual situation, hesitated for a while and followed, feeling that they were about to unearth the big news.
