There was no sound from his shoes on the thick carpet, and all that could be heard in the corridor was his own wheezing. He stood in front of the door of a room, checked the room number on the door with the delivery slip in his hand, and rang the doorbell.

The door opened, and the room was filled with colorful lights and deafening music, and a woman dressed in cool clothes and heavy makeup on her face stood by the door, took the food box without expression, signed the receipt, and then closed the door.

The woman walked past several men and women dancing in the dimly lit and narrow space with the food box in hand, came to a sofa in the corner of the room, and handed the food box to a man sitting on the sofa.

The man took the food box, slapped her on the ass, stood up and pushed open the door to the suite next to her.

The lights in the suite were bright, Zhou Ke was sitting on the big bed, there were many photos in front of him, he was wearing glasses and fiddling with them one by one, when he saw the man bringing the food box in, he took off the glasses, jumped off the big bed, and reached out to take the food box.

"It's finally here, I'm starving. Zhou Ke muttered and waved his hand, and opened the food box after the man went out, and the food box contained a whole pizza.

He took out a knife and cut it open, pulled out a note from the middle of the pizza, and while eating the pizza, he unfolded the note and looked at it, nodding repeatedly.

Zixing No. 3 Star, Qingtian City, transported to the transportation company, Liang Hongyun looked at Xiao Qi standing in front of the door and raised his hands.

"If you have something to say, don't quarrel with anything else. Liang Hongyun shouted.

"Who is bored and has nothing to quarrel with? There was something wrong last time, this time unless you swallow the essence of labor and management, otherwise the labor and management are full-time and laughing, which is guaranteed to make you feel like an uncle. Xiao Qi said with a smile.

"When did you speak so dirty, how awkward you listened, how you laughed, and you couldn't sell crying. Liang Hongyun scolded and let Xiao Qi into the office.

"How about the fat man? Half of the labor essence will be deducted, and if something happens to the fat man, the labor and management will have to fine you. Liang Hongyun put a suitcase in front of Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi opened it and looked at it, the essence inside was neatly arranged, and in the small glass bottles, the pale yellow liquid was rolling and making people salivate.

"The fat man is so good that he doesn't want to go back to Zixing. I've got to take it all with me, buddy. Xiao Qi patted Liang Hongyun's shoulder.

"Take it away, take it away quickly, test the concentration of labor and management every day, and it will make you nervous. Liang Hongyun waved his hand and drove Xiao Qi out like a fly.

Xiao Qi called a taxi and rushed back to the hotel where he stayed, it was still the Juyuan Huijing Hotel where he lived last time he and Catwoman came, he got out of the taxi, walked into the hotel lobby, and suddenly frowned unconsciously.

Instead of getting into the elevator, he walked up the stairs, his ears sideways as he went.

"Meow ......" voice loomed, he walked like flying, gradually, a black figure occasionally appeared in his field of vision, it was a big oily cat, shuttling between the corridors, occasionally stopping to look at Xiao Qi.

"Catwoman!" Xiao Qi shouted excitedly, but the big cat still floated forward, the sound came and went, even the figure, Xiao Qi quickened his pace, but he couldn't catch up with the big cat, he jumped out of the hotel window with the big cat, and stepped on a roof.

The roof of Qingtian City is forged in steel, and it is not afraid of collapse, but it is very slippery.

Xiao Qi has been following the big cat through a block, and then fell to the ground, Xiao Qi chased her through the streets and alleys, and not long after, they came to the door of a café, the big cat slipped in, Xiao Qi followed and pushed open the door of the café.

The whole café was empty, and there was only one person sitting, Xiao Qi recognized it at a glance, and the big cat jumped over and jumped into his arms.

"What happened to Catwoman?" Xiao Qi hurriedly walked in front of Mr. Guo.

"No, pets, you have to look like pets. With a consistent smile on his face, Mr. Guo gently stroked the body of the big cat. The big cat turned his head to look at Xiao Qi in Mr. Guo's arms, with an ignorant look.

"Have you forgotten my warning to you?" Xiao Qi asked through gritted teeth.

"I'm afraid yes, the main warning me is too many people to remember. Mr. Guo smiled awkwardly and pointed to the stool in front of him.

"Sit down and talk, I'm short on time. ”

"I'm not in the mood to talk to you. Xiao Qi turned his head and wanted to leave.

"Isn't it interesting to talk about the opportunity to take charge of Guoxing in front of you?" Mr. Guo raised his voice behind his back.

"You mean, the Shang Alliance is now starting to determine the heir of Guoxing?" Xiao Qi turned around and squinted at Mr. Guo.

"If you say yes, that's pretty much. Mr. Guo looked at Xiao Qi with a smile, and there was a sense of superiority that God was blessing.

"I'm sorry, I'm not interested. Xiao Qi shook his head firmly at Mr. Guo. "I'll warn you again, the next time I see Catwoman still like this, I'll find a way to kill you, and all your family and friends will be my enemies, and I won't warn you a third time. ”

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he glanced at the big cat in Mr. Guo's arms again, the big cat's blank eyes broke his heart, and a black shadow flashed in front of his eyes, which was the back of the big cat when he jumped out of the opera house, elf-like dexterity and elegance, he gritted his teeth and turned around, and left firmly.

Mr. Guo didn't call him again, but squinted his eyes and watched Xiao Qi leave, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"No. 1 can't do it, then No. 2, do you say?" he muttered and scratched the big cat's neck hard, and the big cat "meowed" and twisted its neck.

The fifth small hall of the hall on the first floor of the Military League Building, Xiao Qi walked in with Mei Li in military uniform, there are some portraits hanging on the four walls of the small hall, Xiao Qi doesn't know who those people are, there is a small stage inside, 2 or 3 inches higher than the ground.

An Alliance flag of the Inheritance System and a flag of the Inheritance Army Alliance were hung crosswise behind the rostrum, and the two waited in the small hall for a short time, when a white-haired Army Alliance general wearing three general-level saber symbols walked in with two soldiers.

"I am Tao Zhengying, Deputy Chief of General Staff of the Inheritance Military Alliance and Commander of the Eighth Quadrant of the Main Battlefield, General of the Military Alliance. The white-haired soldier walked up to Xiao Qi and shook hands with him, and Xiao Qi found that this person's eyebrows were all white, hanging down long, so that people couldn't see his eyes clearly.

"I'm sorry, but for reasons of secrecy, I can only award you a medal here. Tao Zhengying said. "We present you with the Order of Honor Patron, which is a reward for those who have served the military alliance and returned to the battlefield for outstanding contributions. ”

Tao Zhengying said solemnly.

"I am honored to introduce to you that eighty percent of the victims who have received this medal have received it, so although this is only a third-class medal of the Inheritance Alliance, it shows that you are as great as the martyrs. ”

Tao Zhengying was talking, and suddenly his feet touched and gave Xiao Qi a standard military salute.

Although Xiao Qi has been out of the army for many years, it is like an indelible memory flowing in his blood, at the moment when the general saluted him, he straightened up steeply and saluted the general, and Mei Li and the two soldiers behind the general also saluted together.

Although the number of people is small, the feeling of ** is still awe-inspiring.

After the ceremony, Tao Zhengying took the medal handed over by his subordinates and handed it to Xiao Qi along with the box.

"Since the outbreak of the war between the Inheritance Galaxy and the Yunhui people, more than 32,000 Honorary Protector Medals have been issued, don't look at its large number, in fact, it is not even 10 per year, I have special respect for this medal, because it represents the spirit of our inheritance of human beings. ”

"That is, no matter where you are, once the galaxy is called, you will do everything you can to sacrifice everything in order to inherit the future of mankind, this medal symbolizes the future of our inheritance galaxy, I hope you can cherish it. Tao Zhengying said.

"I'll cherish it, General!" Xiao Qi held the medal in one hand and saluted the general again.

"It's standard, a good soldier. After awarding the medal, the general seemed to be relaxed, he returned Xiao Qi with a military salute, and then praised him.

"As I said, a soldier must first salute the military salute, which is the basic requirement. The general turned back to the two soldiers who came with him and said a word, and then turned his head to look at Xiao Qi. "How long have you been away from the army?"

"It's been more than twenty years. Xiao Qi was a little embarrassed.

"For more than twenty years, you have been a great asset to our inheritance system. The general nodded and asked again. "Do you have any questions about this medal?"

"You said that the medal was awarded like this for the sake of secrecy, I don't know what happened?" Xiao Qi hesitated and asked. He had been a soldier and knew how grand it was to be awarded a medal in the inheritance of the military alliance, but his own award was so low-key, he couldn't help but be curious.

"It's no secret to you who have come back from Star 17. The general said. "It's the matter of Yunhui people attacking Star 17. Yunhui people are different from our inheritors, they have a keen sense of smell and are good at discovering rare minerals on the planet. ”

"We thought that Star 17 must have been discovered by the Yunhui people, so they would attack at any cost. ”

"But we don't know what that thing is. The war around Star 17 has intensified, and it's a shame that we don't know what we're fighting for. There was some annoyance in Tao Zhengying's tone.

Before coming, Mei Li introduced to Xiao Qi that in fact, the Inheritance Army Alliance had already prepared for Yunhui people to attack Star 17, and in their battle on Star 17, the Inheritance Army Alliance won a big battle and almost annihilated an entire army of Yunhui people.

After listening to Tao Zhengying's introduction, he knew that the war was not over yet.

"In that case, just do it with them, whatever is on his planet. Xiao Qi said. What the enemy wants is what we want to protect, and it doesn't matter what is on it.

"It's not what you think, there are many battles going on in the entire main battlefield, and the resources of the alliance are limited, which can only ensure those planets that we know exactly what we are fighting for, as for this, from the perspective of the military alliance, of course, it is not an inch of land, but it is difficult to say about the business alliance. ”

Tao Zhengying said and glanced at Mei Li.

"Major, accompany Mr. Chen Qi around, I still have something to do, and I am out of company. Tao Zhengying greeted Mei Li and turned to leave, and Xiao Qi hurriedly saluted him again.

This is his main task this time, and he finally understands why Sun Yongqing has restored his identity, he has obtained the third-level medal of the inheritance galaxy, the "Order of the Honorary Protector", and must have an official identity to receive it.

There is a person in the company who has won the medal of the military alliance, which will be of great benefit to the operation of the company, coupled with Sun Yongqing and Sun Zheng's father-son fighting method, he finally got such an opportunity to be promoted to a free man, to be honest, he is still very grateful to Mei Li in his heart.

Without Merry's best efforts for him, he might not have been able to get this medal. For thousands of years, countless inheritors have gone forward to the main battlefield, and a few of them have won medals? If you think that you can get this thing with your contribution to the military alliance, it is that he is too naïve.

"Major Mei Li, I'm going back to the ancestral star tomorrow, please have a meal at noon, I thank you. Xiao Qi said to Mei Li. He didn't have the heart to visit the Military Alliance Mansion, and besides, Mei Li might have something to do.

"Okay, I'll invite you, it should be me thank you, on the 17th star, you have saved me more than once, my life is worth more than a medal!"

"Don't mention this stubble again, on the 17th, I'm still the same old saying, whoever encounters that situation will do that. I'm grateful that you can keep it in mind. Xiao Qi put away the medal carefully.

The experience of serving in the army has taught him a lot, some people may say that the feelings between comrades-in-arms are the most sincere, but to call Xiao Qi, comrades-in-arms are the most white-eyed wolves, and it is appropriate to be rescued.

Being able to be remembered and knowing how to repay is a character worthy of recognition in any case.

"You told me not to mention it, but you still want to mention it? In fact, for me, when the facts are all there, applying for a medal for you is also a gesture. Merry said with a smile.

"It's a gesture for you, and this medal is so important to me. Xiao Qi shook his head, he couldn't figure out how to explain the meaning of this medal to the other party.

"So, for you, saving me is just a gesture, but for me, life is also very important!" Merry chuckled.

That's really the case!Xiao Qi finally nodded comfortably.

"Boss, the person you said already has a clear clue, I can be sure that Xiao Qi is staying in Yunqi Country specifically for him, to carry out the operation, I need to increase my strength. Zhou Ke reported to Jiang Xu on the phone.

"There's something I need to discuss with you. Jiang Xu put down the phone and looked at Fang Jin, who was sitting opposite him.
