Chapter 92:
It only took more than ten minutes from the announcement of the upcoming arrival of the Southern Stars to the official arrival of the destination. But in such a short period of time, all the nearby residents who were available had gathered here. Seen from the sky, it is really a piece of black, very spectacular.
After seeing the scene at his feet through the window, Duan Hengye couldn't help being surprised. After seeing his reaction, Meng Jinhuai also walked over and glanced down. Obviously he did not expect that there were so many people here today.
"Today's matter has a great impact on the interstellar." After Meng Jinhuai finished speaking, he moved his eyes away from the window, and then thought for a moment and turned to the other assistant in the cabin and said: "Wait, don't land in a hurry. Stop at the ping and fly around."
Now that the starship is about to arrive at its destination, shortly after Meng Jinhuai's order was issued, those onlookers discovered that the huge starship in front of them did not rush to land, but re-adjusted its direction and appeared on its own. The top of his head.
At the beginning, everyone did not realize what this starship was doing. After all, the military's starship line was loaded with a lot of weapons, which seemed very oppressive to the naked eye. But after a while, someone finally figured out what Meng Jinhuai meant. In fact, Lord Marshal is greeting people in this way.
Unlike the nobles on the starship today who are far from the flames of war, the inhabitants of the planets on the periphery of the empire know that peace is more difficult than anyone. The planet that the starship chose to land today is one of the inconspicuous planets in the Yetian Empire, and some people can't even pronounce its name completely.
But the people living on this planet have deep feelings for the military. Although it is not a military star, the security here is still in charge of Nan Zhuxing. There are no precious resources on this planet, and the economic level is very average. And because of its location near the edge of the empire, the security work here is more complicated than most planets.
Standing by the window, Duan Hengye saw that while the starship was flying above the crowd, the following was also screaming and beckoning here with great enthusiasm.
Recently, Duan Hengye has been consciously studying empire history and geographical knowledge. So he knew that because of his special location, Meng Jinhuai had been here many times in recent years. Obviously, Nan Zhuxing did not ignore this place, and the residents here will never forget Nan Zhu.
The scene at his feet was too shocking, Duan Hengye's hand unconsciously stuck to the cold window. While he quietly looked at the scenery under the starship, Meng Jinhuai put his hands on Duan Hengye's shoulders. Obviously now Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai are in more than two of them in the cabin, but the atmosphere between them naturally divides them from the rest. The accompanying assistant, who was also looking down the window just now, silently shifted his gaze aside.
After completing a few laps, the starship flew towards the dock again.
After all, the planet that is landing now has limited conditions. The Military Department did not contact each guest with the starship, but divided them into several batches. Although they usually travel to and from space on luxury private starships, no one is picky now.
After the starship landed, the first group immediately followed the staff of the military department out. After all, the scene was a bit chaotic, and neither Duan Hengye nor Meng Jinhuai showed up again. At this moment, Duan Hengye's cabin suddenly received an entry application.
It was sent by Duan Hengxing.
After seeing this name, although Duan Hengye was a little surprised, he still agreed to this application.
After boarding the starship just now, Duan Hengye changed into casual clothes. This is a simple black T-shirt. Although it is very suitable for the current temperature in the starship cabin at this time, when the two hands on his shoulders left, he suddenly felt a little bit of chill and reluctance.
After turning around, Duan Hengye's vision stopped there for a while, and then he looked towards the door.
At this time, Duan Hengxing also walked to the door. Compared with the usual dangling appearance, Duan Hengxing's temperament is particularly serious today. At the same time, the military staff in this cabin also saw Duan Hengxing.
These staff members are already familiar with Duan Hengye. As for Duan Hengxing, the staff members have seen him before at banquets or on the Star Network. But to this day, after a sudden turn around, they finally discovered the similarities between Duan Hengxing and Duan Hengye for the first time, and then realized that the two of them are extremely close.
Duan Hengxing, who was standing at the door, put a hand gently on the door, his eyes fell on Duan Hengye. After seeing Duan Hengxing's expression, Meng Jinhuai glanced at Duan Hengye, and then walked out of the cabin. Seeing that Marshal Meng had left, several other staff also looked at each other and walked out behind Meng Jinhuai.
After a while, only Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai were left in the whole room.
Duan Hengye remembers what happened the last time he was alone with Duan Hengxing. He didn't feel much when the situation was critical just now, but now he can't help but feel a little embarrassed. After everyone else in the starship cabin had left, Duan Hengxing finally walked in slowly.
Duan Hengye only found out at this time, and I don't know if it is because Duan Hengxing is wearing formal clothes today, the whole person looks much more mature than before.
Obviously he was calm when he was standing at the door just now, but after the people in the cabin were gone, Duan Hengxing was also awkward. At this time Duan Hengye and Duan Hengxing were standing at each end of the room, separated by a sofa.
Duan Hengye glanced at the man in front of him, and then said, "Sit down first."
"Uh..." Duan Hengxing walked over and sat on the sofa after hearing the words. He couldn't help but raise his eyes and glanced at Duan Hengye, then became nervous.
Of course, Duan Hengxing's nervous expression didn't hide Duan Hengye's eyes. After sitting down, he waited for a while, guessing that Duan Hengxing's mood had calmed down. Then he hesitated and asked, "What's wrong?" "
After speaking, Duan Hengye felt that he didn't start well. But seeing Duan Hengxing like this, he was not choked by Duan Hengye's question. In fact, the previous exchanges between the two were like this, blunt and direct.
"Well... I want to say thank you." Duan Hengxing's speech was very slow, and his hands were also tightly clasped when speaking. Although the action was not very obvious, Duan Hengye still saw it.
When I saw Duan Hengxing standing at the door just now, Duan Hengye was already a little bit prepared. But when he really heard these two words appearing in Duan Hengxing's mouth, he still felt a little untrue.
After saying this, before Duan Hengye could react, Duan Hengxing suddenly took a breath, and then suddenly stood up from the sofa. Duan Hengye saw that Duan Hengxing's expression now lightened a lot. It seems that after the sentence just said, the big stone in his heart also fell with it.
At this time, the young man standing opposite Duan Hengye felt a sense of "relaxation" throughout his body.
Seeing Duan Hengxing getting up, Duan Hengye also stood up with him. The two of them stood at the opposite ends of the sofa, and after getting up, they still maintained a short and endless distance. They seemed to be kind and alienated that could not be ignored.
Duan Hengxing was silent for a moment, and then said: "You are amazing. Some things I said before... are indeed ridiculous." When he said the previous sentence, he looked straight into Duan Hengye's eyes, looking very sincere. When talking about the latter, there was a bit of loss in his eyes that could not be ignored.
I have to say that Duan Hengxing was surprised by Duan Hengye's words. But before he could think about how he should respond, he saw the other person sniffing, and then his expression turned and said, "Okay, then I'm leaving." Compared to the tight and nervous tone just now. Duan Hengxing was relaxed at this moment. After speaking, he nodded to Duan Hengye, and walked directly out of the cabin.
After Duan Hengxing's back completely disappeared at the door, Duan Hengye finally realized something later.
Before today, almost every meeting between him and Duan Hengxing was unpleasant, and most of them only happened when the other party asked for money. In the previous meetings, Duan Hengxing basically called himself "brother"-although his tone was often mocking. But this time, Duan Hengxing did not call himself that. The two of them were like strangers, and they finished the conversation very politely.
After the dialogue between Duan Hengye and Duan Hengxing was over, Meng Jinhuai also returned from other things. Pushing open the door and seeing Meng Jinhuai walking towards him on the other side of the corridor, Duan Hengxing politely nodded with him, and then followed the instructions of the staff around him and walked to the exit of the starship.
"What's wrong." After entering the door, the starship's hatch closed again.
Hearing what Meng Jinhuai said, Duan Hengye slowly shook his head, and then frowned slightly and said to Meng Jinhuai truthfully: "Duan Hengxing just came over and said'thank you' to me." When speaking, Duan Hengye's fingertips couldn't help but feel light. Gently rubbed the edge of the sofa.
Although Duan Hengye simply repeated what Duan Hengxing had just said, and did not add his own opinion. But when he finished speaking, Meng Jinhuai immediately understood what Duan Hengye wanted to express.
Although Duan Hengye has no memory of what happened when he was a child, and it was not pleasant to get along with Duan Hengxing only a few times before. But the man who left just now is still Duan Hengye's only relative in this world. The word "thank you" is not only a thank you, but also a reflection of strangeness.
Duan Hengye was a little lonely, not because of Duan Hengxing, but because of his loneliness.
Meng Jinhuai guessed this, and what he couldn't guess was that because of this emotion, Duan Hengye once again remembered his relatives in the previous life. Because Interstellar does not have a very standard concept of "year", Duan Hengye does not remember very clearly how long he has been in this world. Coupled with busy work, he often forgets the past. However, Duan Hengxing's alienated conversation just now reminded Duan Hengye of the faces in his memory that began to blur.
Thinking of this, Meng Jinhuai stretched out his hand and patted Duan Hengye on the shoulder, then lowered his head and gently said to him: "There is me, it doesn't matter."
After listening to Meng Jinhuai's words, Duan Hengye let go of his frowning brows, and then smiled slightly, "Okay."
...
The incident that happened on the Queen's family belongs to the stars, and it began to vigorously. Some of those who ended up were too hasty.
After the starship of the Southern Stars sent the queen back to the star, she and other family members were placed under house arrest on this planet. Although because of the chaotic news at the time of the incident, the royal family was also questioned unprecedentedly. But things were just like Duan Hengye and Meng Jinhuai imagined, the imperial family temporarily dumped all the responsibilities on the Queen's family.
It took Duan Hengye for a while to find out that while he and Duan Hengxing were talking in the starship cabin, Meng Jinhuai and the queen also communicated, but he did not ask about the results and content of Meng Jinhuai's conversation with the other party.
As for the focus of people's attention. It seems that within a short period of time, the incident itself shifted to "Duan Hengye could even drive a mecha". Because the incident was too urgent and the place of the incident was in the interstellar no man's jurisdiction, no image data was released. But the more so, the greater the curiosity of the incident.
It didn't take long for the media on Interstellar to restore the events of that day according to the words of the captured guests. Not long after the video was sent out, it quickly spread throughout the interstellar. However, before waiting long, many people who witnessed the incident reposted it, and then pointed out that the operation in the analog video was not one-tenth of the reality.
The hot spots on the interstellar come and go quickly. Obviously, everyone was still very concerned about the Star Thief incident before, but when the video came out, the previous incident was diluted in people's minds. It's just... this speed seems a bit too fast. After seeing the discussion on Starnet, Duan Hengye raised the question whether someone deliberately obscured the matter behind his back. In fact, his guess was correct-soon after the incident, Nan Zhuxing began to deliberately lead discussions among netizens.
At first glance this is blurring the focus, but in fact it is secretly planting a bomb...
A few days later, the royal family's report on the incident was finally released at the urging of the imperial parliament that had no sense of existence before. However, if Duan Hengye is to read it, this report is really foolish. As long as you have a little understanding of the matter, you will find loopholes in it.
When the report came out, Meng Jinhuai was having a meeting on the Southern Stars. The rest of the military staff saw that after suspending the meeting and reading the report, Meng Jinhuai suddenly smiled coldly at Guangping.
The military staff present at the scene all walked down from the battlefield with Meng Jinhuai, and it is no longer known how many times they have seen each other with a murderous look. But today is different. In addition to murderous aura, Meng Jinhuai's body is more chilly.
If the previous Meng Jinhuai was a lion king on the grassland, today he is more like a giant python hiding in the jungle.
Seeing Meng Jinhuai's appearance now, Yu Xinlan couldn't help but glance at Dongfang Hewen, who was sitting opposite. Although the two did not speak, the tacit understanding accumulated over the years of working together allowed them to reach a consensus in the first time-Meng Jinhuai probably has prepared a "great gift" for the royal family, and only waited for the right time to come. Will be sent.
Because of Meng Jinhuai's expression, more than a dozen people in the military conference room dare not make one. After a while, Lord Marshal finally reached out to remove the screen on the light screen from the royal report, and then returned to the meeting.
The perfunctivity in the royal briefing was too obvious. Seeing that Meng Jinhuai didn't say much, a staff member sitting next to him hesitated and asked, "My Master Marshal... what do we need to do?"
Hearing that Meng Jinhuai shook his head and said, "It's not the time yet, wait a moment."
——Meng Jinhuai is waiting for Lan Jingchi to resolve the last major issue.
...
The toxins in Duan Hengye's body are indeed a bit complicated, and despite Lan Jingchi's addition and the cooperation of an entire research institute, the antidote still cannot be created in a short time.
Because he formally joined Nan Zhuxing's research institute and began to preside over antidote work. Lan Jingchi also learned about Duan Hengye's affairs with the royal family and the queen's family. Although I thought Duan Hengye was a very mysterious person before, Lan Jingchi had never thought that there was such a history behind him.
While waiting for the antidote to be made, Duan Hengye would often go to Southern Zhuxing or the satellite where his subordinate research institute was located for regular physical examinations. The difference from the last time is that these physical examinations are not to check his internal organs affected by toxins, but to check the toxin content and movement patterns.
Since a few months ago, Lan Jingchi has begun to adjust the temporary antidote. Although every adjustment is not big, after several physical examinations, it can be found that the toxins in Duan Hengye's body that were originally stationary and even deepening are finally showing signs of movement.
This is a good thing, but it is also a very risky thing.
As a male partner who once stepped into the ranks of the villains, Lan Jingchi is also bold in creating an antidote. Probably now, in the entire interstellar world, apart from Lan Jingchi, no one dares to use the method of "attack poison with poison" on Duan Hengye...
Duan Hengye was also taken aback after hearing Lan Jingchi's thoughts, and hesitated for a while. But finally remembering the description of Lan Jingchi in the book and seeing the other's confident expression, Duan Hengye still accepted the other's suggestion. Lan Jingchi is indeed a person who will not disappoint. After a period of experimentation After that, the toxins in Duan Hengye began to move and gradually weakened. But because the drugs and toxins attacked each other, Duan Hengye's body was once again weakened by the naked eye while the toxins were decreasing day by day.
Although knowing that this is a necessary process for detoxification, Meng Jinhuai also asked Duan Hengye to temporarily transfer his main work site from the star where the research institute is located to the southern stars.
In this era, working remotely is no longer a difficult task. Just because the mecha research work needs to be kept confidential, the ordinary staff of the research institute must use the optical brain in the hospital to conduct research to prevent information leakage incidents.
But Duan Hengye is not an ordinary staff member, at least he does not have to worry about information leakage.
Despite the shift of position, after returning to Nan Zhuxing to start work, Duan Hengye still held video conferences with the staff of the Institute every other day. Because of the time difference between the two places, the time for each meeting is the afternoon where the institute is located, and the morning at Duan Hengye.
Yesterday, Duan Hengye just took a new-stage drug developed by Lan Jingchi. Although the spirit is still as full as before, but the body is a little too weak. In the morning, his biological clock didn't work. Had the robot been set up before, Duan Hengye would have slept in the meeting 80% of the time.
However, although I got up before the meeting, it was still a bit in a hurry.
Duan Hengye walked off the bed with some vain steps. After washing up, it was time for the meeting to start. So Duan Hengye, who didn't have time to go to the office, had to walk to the desk in the corner of the bedroom, then put a coat on his pajamas and opened the meeting program.
Among the video conference participants of the Institute, only Su Mingge has several more important research group leaders. After a period of work, not only Su Mingge, but everyone no longer has the fear of Duan Hengye as before. Even in meetings, I would joke with him from time to time.
But today, after Duan Hengye turned on the video with a rare one-minute delay, all those who saw the video became serious. Duan Hengye was still adjusting the light brain when the video was opened, so he did not appear in the screen for the first time.
However, the off-white wall behind the table told the person opposite to the video that Duan Hengye was not in the previous office right now. Then, Su Mingge used a floor lamp behind Duan Hengye to determine his current location.
"...Duan Hengye, are you in the bedroom now?" Su Mingge hesitated first, and then asked.
Hearing his words, Duan Hengye couldn't help feeling a little surprised. After adjusting his head, he walked over and sat at his desk, and then gently nodded while sorting out the meeting documents.
I was a little anxious while washing up just now, but Duan Hengye didn't notice, his face today was as bad as his condition. If there is an analogy... in Su Mingge's view, today's Duan Hengye is very similar to the time when he fainted before his eyes.
Before Duan Hengye raised his head, the picture on the light screen in front of him suddenly changed. The images of the remaining staff disappeared, leaving only Su Mingge occupying a light screen with a serious face.
What happened? Before Duan Hengye could react to what was wrong in the video, he heard Su Mingge who was on the other side very solemnly, as if he was torturing himself and asked each word: "Duan Hengye, what are you doing? What's the matter? Don't hide it from me."
Although Su Mingge didn't say anything, Duan Heng felt that the other party was making up his mind again-after all, Professor Su was a person who once asked himself if he was dying.
