Chapter 386: Midfield
Xiao Zhen admitted that she was not good at handling marital relationships, especially when the other party was a noble queen who was high above her, and after you had unreasonably offended her.
He carefully looked at the queen on the floating screen. Her face was dim in the flickering holographic screen. She was so beautiful and noble. She belonged to the prince's vision, his wife, his queen. But not his.
"..." The queen stared at him suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Zhen thought about it several times in her mind. What are you doing? This question was obviously not a simple inquiry, but a fierce question, which meant what good things you did. This was not just her impatient collision just now, but also pointed to what she did after Her Majesty the Queen left - the surprise closure of the Common Happiness Mutual Aid Association.
Considering the influence of the Common Happiness Society in Xiyiqi, it seemed a bit wrong for him to suddenly take action without notifying the queen. The prince glanced at the queen in the light curtain again. Well, she looked like she wanted to crawl over along the radio waves and strangle him. He had to think of a suitable response.
"What are you doing?" the queen asked again. If the previous sentence was just a question, this sentence had already sparked.
The prince blurted out: "I miss you."
“……”The queen in the light curtain widened her eyes.
Well, this phrase learned from a Homo sapiens TV series is a bit frivolous. Taking advantage of the Queen's surprise, the Prince quickly added: "I am thinking about how to report the matter of the Happiness Society to you in full."
“…”
Not good, the Queen looked even angrier.
The prince immediately pushed all the intelligence information about the Happiness Society's crimes to her. He had told Director Daxi in advance that he would be the one to report to the Queen. These serious evidences were like a thunderbolt. The Queen's face changed at the first glance, and for several minutes, she stared at the report intently without saying a word.
Such a huge amount of illegally extracted consciousness and the resulting deaths of a large number of Xiyiqi people, the location was also in the Xiyiqi people's sacred place, Nocturne Mountain. These conclusive and heavy-duty intelligence undoubtedly had a great impact on the queen. The prince saw her stiff body trembling slightly in the flickering light curtain.
The prince added: “The Black Box Society is behind this.”
"The black box will..." the Queen muttered.
"Yes, there is evidence that the extraction of consciousness is related to the black box." The prince thought for a moment and decided to add more fuel to the fire. "I still suspect..."
"What do you suspect?"
"Crimson mutation." The prince said.
The Queen's expression changed. Even on this side of the communication panel, the Prince could feel the Queen's breath like boiling lava. "You mean the black box is related to the Crimson Mutation that has been harming my Xiyiqi people for many years?"
"This is just my guess." The prince said, "Our Xiyiqi is the breeding ground for the Common Happiness Society. The Happiness Society has always used the fear of death and the eternal life of being separated from the body to seduce believers. It is precisely because of the suffering of the Crimson Mutation that people seek the so-called help of the Happiness Society. Judging from the actions of the Black Box Society, the Crimson Mutation is likely spread by them..."
Bang!
A harsh sound came from the light curtain. The queen stood up, and through the flickering holographic light and shadow, every word she spoke was filled with resolute and fierce anger. "From now on, the Intelligence Investigation Bureau, the Military Police Corps, and the Planetary Police Department will all participate in the investigation of this case. I order you to be the highest person in charge, and the above departments will be directly deployed by you. Tell them that the queen will never allow any criminal who dares to harm Xi Yiqi to go free."
"Yes, sir."
"If the Crimson Mutation is really related to the Black Box Society..." the Queen gritted her teeth and said, "I will fight blood for blood. I want all of them dead."
“…”
"I have no intention of playing mind games with this bunch of scum," the Queen said. "Every one of them must be killed. That is my order."
The queen's murderous aura directly penetrated the holographic light curtain, commanding him with an undeniable, sharp and violent aura. The prince deeply felt the queen's powerful pressure, and there was also a trace of uncontrollable grief in it.
All the people of Xiyiqi were created from the Queen's egg, and they are all her children. Over the years, the Crimson Mutation has taken too many lives, and the heart of the mother of the swarm has been devastated countless times by the unspeakable pain of losing her child. At this moment, the Queen's holographic image showed an indestructible will, which was the extreme anger and extreme sadness. If Prince Alsiel was still alive, what words would he use to comfort his beloved Queen?
He doesn't know because he is not him.
After confirming his authority with the Queen, the Prince thought of Liu Xingquan and Captain Ban, and asked the Queen what she thought of the mysterious octahedron placed in Nocturne Mountain.
"I think the black box must be plotting something by placing the regular octahedron there," the prince said. "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
"..." The Queen did not answer immediately. She turned her head slightly and fell into her own thoughts. The Prince remained silent and looked at her.
She put on the white silver flower, the prince thought. The first night the queen came to see him and they parted unhappily. Strictly speaking, she was mad at him. At that time, the prince remembered that she always glanced at the dried flowers on the cabinet intentionally or unintentionally when she spoke. After she left, the prince asked Conde to give the white silver flower given to him by the child in the shelter to Felice, the captain of the queen's guard, and asked her to pass it on.
The Queen wore the flower.
The delicate flower looked dull and fragile amid the beautiful pearls and gold chains, but she wore it.
"It's very likely..." the Queen muttered.
"His Majesty?"
"..." The queen raised her head, "You did a good job."
“This is my responsibility.”
"Alsiel, I will be back tomorrow, and I will tell you something then." said the Queen.
"good."
"Wait for me to come back." She whispered. It was like a promise to him, but also like a whisper to herself. Her face gradually blurred in the dim light, and disappeared in the light curtain along with the little flower.
Liu Bei is queuing in the orbital space station.
The ship owner Yan Zhen and the captain Captain Ban are not here now, so he is the nominal person in charge of the Zejin. Now all the crew members of the Zejin are on a tour to visit the satellites around Xiyiqi. There is still some time before boarding, and Liu Bei counted the few crew members. He plans to buy a few bags of Xiyiqi's unique glittering slurry and nodular worm meat and egg powder.
The flow of people in the passage was a bit chaotic. Some people said that it was because the Queen was inspecting on the satellite, and traffic control was being implemented around the terminal. It would be nice to see the Queen in person, but it was a pity that there were so many people now that I was afraid I couldn't see it clearly.
Liu Bei stood on tiptoe, looked at the line in front of him, and calculated the time .
If he could buy the serum and meat and egg powder earlier, he could get rid of the person behind him sooner... the Xiyiqi man, or the Xiyiqi adult?
In his eyes, this was a burly and handsome Gnus. But Liu Bei knew that some Xiyiqi had adapters, and the tall and handsome Gnus in his eyes was essentially an adult Xiyiqi. Liu Bei knew what most Xiyiqi insects looked like. They had symmetrical limbs extending from a hard and smooth shell, and the eyes of an adult were a combination of wafer bodies. The aesthetics of the Gnus were closer to that of Homo sapiens, and he was really incapable of aesthetic appreciation for insect-like intelligent creatures. Even if Xiyiqi had adapters to modify their racial appearance, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he thought that the person in front of him was essentially a large alien insect.
But the biggest problem was that this adult Siyiqi with the appearance of Genus was flirting with him. This inevitably caused countless question marks to appear in Liu Bei's head.
The Gnus only have asexual bodies that look similar to Homo sapiens males, so they are naturally not endowed with reproductive impulses. For them, the bond between brothers, the honor of fighting, and the fulfillment of promises are far more exciting than sex.
Even if we take a step back, the gap between the Gnus and the Siyiqi people is like the distance between fungi and invertebrates. What on earth was this Siyiqi person doing to tease him?
Yes, it was a tease. The Xiyiqi man was already leaning behind him, his two tentacles sweeping across his back intentionally or unintentionally, "Hello, do you want to drink a glass of glitter paste with me later?"
Drink your ancestors. Liu Bei cursed in his heart, but he really didn't know the etiquette of the Xiyiqi people, and he was a little worried that he would get into trouble if he acted rashly. You know, Mr. Cat repeatedly told them to be careful before leaving. As the highest person in charge of the Zejin, he didn't want to bring danger to his crew. Liu Bei looked around for help, and he was surprised to find that the tourists around him kept a distance of more than two meters from them. An alien with long eye stalks was laughing, and it must have taken a sneak shot and posted it on the Internet.
The Xiyiqi man's tentacles entangled his arms more and more fiercely, "I know a place where we can have a drink together." His words became more affectionate and his actions more sticky.
Liu Bei wanted to shout for help.
…
…
Yin Ran said, "Why hasn't Liu Bei come back yet?"
"He went shopping." Zhang Fei said without raising his head.
"Oh..." Yin Ran glanced at him, "What are you doing?"
"Take care of the kids." Zhang Fei spread out his hands, on which lay a listless cat-and-mouse bug. "After Captain Ban left, the cat-and-mouse bug has lost all its spirit."
"Are you sure you didn't feed it properly?"
"No!" Zhang Fei said, "I also specially gave it a friend to accompany it." He took out a box and poured out another worm. It was very similar to the cat worm, but its head was a funny dog head. Zhang Fei called it the dog worm. Like the cat worm, the dog worm came from the popular pet egg game in the galaxy. The biggest difference between it and Captain Madara's cat worm is that it is the product of Zhang Fei's failed krypton gold, and so far, there is no trend of evolution.
The dog-bug was trying to get closer to the sighing cat-bug, but before it could move to the cat-bug, the cat-bug hit the dog-bug with its head, knocking it away.
Zhang Fei screamed and carefully picked up the dog worm. The dog worm slid into Zhang Fei's pocket, showing its puppy head and baring its teeth at the cat worm. The cat worm ignored it and continued to curl up in a ball, sighing and missing Captain Qiban.
“There is a class barrier between five stars and one star.” Guan Yu said on the side.
"As long as we give them time, they will get along well." Zhang Fei sighed and put away the cat and bug. "Fei, why hasn't our eldest brother come back yet? Should we go check on him?"
Ms. Fei did not answer her. She leaned gracefully against the railing of the aisle, staring at the crowd on the other side in a trance.
"Phi, Phii?"
After shouting several times, Fei finally came to her senses, "Huh?"
"I want to ask if we should go see Big Brother. Does it take so long to queue up to buy something?"
"Oh." Fei replied.
Guan Yu asked, "Fei, is there something wrong with you?"
“…”
"Fei, you've been absent-minded for two days. Did something happen to you?"
"Yes, are you worried about something?" Zhang Fei said, "We are all here, can you tell us?"
Fei silently turned her gaze to the distance again. After a long while, she replied, "I think I saw Gamor in front of me."
"ah?"
"And... oh, by the way." Fei glanced at everyone, "Where is Ren Anzhi?"
