"Russia...... Did you really attack our Martian base?"

This uneasy remark came from Zhang Yurou, the engineer with beautiful long black hair, who was not good-looking. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoHer words create a little life for the dreary table, but that's about it: silence still hangs over the place, and no one seems to want to speak.

The news received today made the people of the entire spaceship panic, and Liang Yuanhang, who had always been bold, was surprisingly silent after announcing the news. The warning message from Mars was received two hours ago, and according to the facts conveyed in the message, Russia should have stationed forces on Mars, which means that it is very likely to be intercepted when the cargo ship approaches low earth orbit. It is still not clear what the Russian government will say in return, and it is clear that the diplomatic process on the planet will go on for a long time......

Even so, the atmosphere on the ship shouldn't be so dreary. The war has been fought a long time ago, and space war is not a new thing, the soil on the surface of the moon has long been soaked in the brains of unknown soldiers, and now adding another Mars will not change anything. The only thing that is somewhat surprising is perhaps Russia's "betrayal": first, they have been China's allies for a long time, and second, although militarization is not prohibited, Mars and its dependent orbits are strictly forbidden to go to war, which is a consensus among countries.

"Do you know, Comrade Ge Chengzhi? Everyone in the Heavenly Army actually longs for Mars. When Ge Chengzhi had to start to be confused about this matter, the female ecologist, whose hair was already a little gray, but was dyed a faint yellow, spoke, "Over the years, I have had a lot of contact with the people of the Heavenly Army. There is a general view among the people of the Celestial Army that Mars will be the first choice for large-scale human migration in the future, and it will be the first starting point for human beings to truly go to space. Moreover, after the war began, due to the existence of the armistice zone treaty, Mars was even rendered to some extent a paradise-like place. Everyone feels that with such a peaceful paradise, the war will definitely be brought under control, and it will not really become the ...... of the 'Third World War' that can destroy all mankind."

“…… And then, Russia's actions shattered their faith and something similar to faith?" Nodding in understanding, Ge Chengzhi looked at Liang Yuanhang's declining figure again, "...... Indeed, I can understand it somewhat...... However, I heard that this time it was an unauthorized operation of the Russian Mars base......"

"That's even worse, Comrade Ge Chengzhi. At this time, it was Zhao Liu who accosted, "This may indicate that Mars and the earth have begun to separate." If the Russians can disobey their government, can we? Even if the people at the Mars base don't actually have this idea, the government on Earth will suspect that they have this idea. Unlike the Moon, the greatest value of Mars is to be colonized, so the Mars base must develop in the direction of having a particularly strong self-sustaining force, until in the end it can no longer even rely on the Earth's supplies. ”

"Good long-term topic. Mars independence should not be visible when we are alive, right?"

"Who knows? It's possible that we'll live for two or three hundred years. In that case, you might be able to see it. I don't know if I'm joking, Tan Suya, who is much older than Ge Chengzhi, shrugged, "Ah, maybe I can't see it." I'm fifty-three this year. ”

"Isn't that still young? Laughing and responding, Ge Chengzhi suddenly heard something coming from his bowl. When I looked closely, a strip of tin foil wrapped around a small part was thrown over. Quietly picking it up, Ge Chengzhi slowly opened it, and there was a line of small words written on it:

Can. Gravity-free zone, see C2 zone.

This is the answer from Hakurei Reimu. In the past few days, he finally sensed the truth that the two of them had concealed from Sanae's self-talk and Marisa Kiriyu's response to his question. He was a little excited to learn the truth, and the best person to share this excitement with was undoubtedly this guy who always wore a red and white armpit witch suit. Quietly put away the tin foil, Ge Chengzhi finished the rest of the meal, left Tan Suya and Zhao Liu, who were still chatting happily, and walked out of the cafeteria.

The gravity-free zone is particularly suitable for private meetings because the proper equipment noise here can block out the conversation, but it doesn't interfere with the normal conversation between the two people. Moreover, if the eavesdropper is really discovered, it will be difficult for the other party to escape quickly in a weightless state. In these respects, it has a unique advantage compared to the rest of the spaceship.

"It's not a good habit for women to wait. It's obviously an invitation from you. "At the predetermined location, Reimu was already waiting. Seeing Ge Chengzhi's appearance, there was some kind of thorn in her voice, "So, do you know what I want to know?"

"Yes, that's right. But you have to tell me what I want to know first. Nodding without hesitation, Ge Chengzhi spied on Reimong's expression, "Who is it that destroyed the secret communication channel?"

"The exchange of intelligence should be reciprocal. You should have told me what those two people were hiding first. ”

"If there is a precedence, there is no such thing as reciprocity......

With a flash of silver light, the knife that Reimu had been carrying was directly across Ge Chengzhi's neck. Apparently, the conversation between the two had just provoked her displeasure: "...... I now want to know what those two men are hiding from me. If you don't tell me, there's a good chance there's an extra corpse in space. What do you think?"

"You're acting irrationally, Miss Reimu. If I die here, there will obviously be more than one extra corpse in space. Raising his hands, Ge Chengzhi's mental state remained stable, "You see, you have the ability to coerce me by force, but I don't have any weapons with me." There's no way I'm going to run away after I get the information, or I'm going to be killed, isn't it?"

"At this point, in order to complete the information transfer smoothly, it is better for you to tell your own information first. We are exchanging and cooperating, not simply coercing and being coerced. ”

This statement seemed to shake Reimu's attitude a little. After thinking for a moment, she put away the knife, but a Type 92 appeared in her right hand, obviously to deal with Ge Chengzhi's escape at any time: "...... It's Helena. She's ruined that emergency intelligence channel you need. ”

"Is it really her......

"You've thought of it a long time ago?"

"Some speculation. "Cooperation," then, must be questioned. However, taking the initiative to reveal their identities to show that they were here to cooperate, and then destroying their own intelligence channels and doing such a risky thing, the two of them may have to make some moves recently: for example, by taking advantage of the lack of information, they revealed some false information to this side to try to obtain the truth about Project 0001...... "You know Helena?...... She knows, you know, she did the sabotage?"

"Yes, that's right. ”

It's weird. Quite strange. If so, why didn't she do anything to prevent the leak of information to herself, and instead kept quiet? As a skilled agent, she shouldn't ignore the danger. Could it be that this itself is part of the trap...... Is it?

This superfluous worry was completely dispelled by Reimu's words later: "So I still hope that you don't tell her that the information leaked from me." I'm still useful for this favor. ”

"Uh-huh...... Okay, no problem. Anyway, there is nothing binding on this sentence. It's like your promise to Helena. Nodding, the corners of Ge Chengzhi's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at the muzzle of the gun that had been clearly shown on the other side, "It's my turn next?"

"Of course. At times like these, don't say things like 'I don't know.'" ”

“…… Before the surprise is revealed, there is always a way to create some kind of atmosphere, otherwise the surprise will seem a little boring, won't it?...... Okay, I said. This little joke clearly made Reimu angry. With the muzzle of the gun raised, Ge Chengzhi hurriedly raised his hands high, lowered his head, and made a gesture of obedience, "What they know is about the ghost we met at the Yuedu Headquarters before. ”

"Ghost?...... Ah, there's a ghost next to Komachi. It seems so. With a frown, Reimu nodded, "What's wrong with that ghost?"

"That ghost's face looks exactly like my brother's. ”

The air inside the ship fell silent. It felt a little strange about the reaction of the other side, Ge Chengzhi, who had originally lowered his head, slowly raised his head, but was surprised to see something unexpected: the surprised expression on the face of the witch in front of him was completely frozen, and two lines of tears slowly flowed down from her blood-red eyes, leaving marks on her face. Hurriedly handed over his handkerchief, Ge Chengzhi looked at Reimeng, who was still a little stunned, and pushed her shoulder: "...... Rub it off. ”

“…… Xiaowei, he's still ...... He's still ......"

"But it seems that he is dead. Thinking that the two sides should be able to have a frank exchange on this topic, Ge Chengzhi's mood relaxed, "But it's okay, fortunately, there is still an underworld in this world." Haha, at first I thought the underworld was just some kind of organization codename, but I didn't expect it to be the real thing. ”

"I can see him again...... No," Reimu shook his head, a frightened tone in his voice, "He saw us." So why don't you say it? Why don't you come back?"

“…… It's probably because of the underworld. For this question, Ge Chengzhi thought for a moment and bit his lower lip, "If the underworld doesn't have any restrictions on ghosts, wouldn't all those who have nostalgia for life after death appear around us?" So ......"

"That's right...... The Underworld imprisoned Xiaowei?" As if talking to herself, Reimu lowered her head and whispered, "Those words...... In that case, just get him out of the underworld......"

"It's certainly not going to be easy. Shrugging his shoulders, Ge Chengzhi echoed. Seeing Reimu's look as if he had been redeemed, he even had the idea of whether or not to tell her the true purpose of his trip - but it was obviously too dangerous. Who knows if all this is the acting skills of this suspected spy of the underworld? Her suspicion has not been cleared, "However, it doesn't matter. I'll find a way to help, if there's something I can do to help. ”

“…… I know. ”

Reimu's excitement was quickly calmed by herself. Although she immediately returned to her usual calm expression, I don't know if it was Ge Chengzhi's illusion, the red in her pupils seemed to have faded by more than half, but it seemed to be only for a moment. In the next moment, the red of blood filled her eyes again, and the atmosphere around her that was originally as relaxed as Ge Chengzhi suddenly tensed.

I guess I thought of something. …… By the way, why did Marisa and Sanae hide it from her? It seems that her self-proclaimed romantic relationship is not recognized by these people......

Sensing the slightly complicated situation, Ge Chengzhi decided to keep his mouth shut - it's not something he should worry about, so try not to worry about it: "Then, I'll go back first." ”

“…… Well. It was a pleasant exchange of information. Looking forward to the next cooperation. ”

"Ah," glancing into the shadows, Ge Chengzhi clenched the pistol he had prepared a long time ago, and wondered why the person who had been peeping over here didn't rush out as he had imagined, "Goodbye." ”

Ge Yiwei's ghost...... ...... really exists? No, Shiki Yingji told me clearly......

Just like Reimu, when she heard the news from Ge Chengzhi's mouth, Mianyue Yiji, who was eavesdropping in the dark, was also stunned. A mixed emotion appeared in her heart: she felt some peace of mind, some regret at the same time, but above all a certain sadness. She was a little unconvinced that Shikihime would deceive herself about such a completely inconsequential matter. Even though the underworld and the moon have become enemies, we have been ...... for so many years after all

However, Ge Yiwei is here. Ge Yiwei is really still there. It's really still there...... Well. In this case, the grudge between the two of us can be considered a write-off, after all, I also killed him once. If you meet him again, it will all start again. That's right, start over.

Nodding heavily, as if to cheer herself up, Mianyue Yiji tightly grasped the scalpel in her hand. Originally, she planned to use this scalpel from Shijiazhuang People's Hospital to cut his throat when Ge Chengzhi revealed the information to Lingmeng. However, given that I am in a good mood now...... Spare him. Spare him.

Mianyue Yiji knew that these two people should have discovered their existence. Reimu may be letting it go in order to make her realize her mistakes, a means of humiliation, and Ge Chengzhi is using this to show goodwill. Hawkers, forget it, in short, today is a good thing. It's really a good thing.

Even Mizuki Yiji herself didn't notice that after coming out of the hideout in the gravity zone and falling to the ground, her steps were much lighter, and she jumped and jumped, just like ...... The next day going on an outing like an elementary school student.

“…… That's right. Right. Good. It's really strange that you and I have reached a consensus today. Sure enough, because Russia called, did your attitude change?"

"Of course, if necessary. We're not in a good situation, are we, aren't we? How long will it take for the review team to arrive?"

"I see. Well, good. Is the communication interrupted? Looks like I'm having a lot of responsibility......"

"There shouldn't be a problem. It's just a hand, how can it be so serious...... I know it's going to be reviewed by the Mental State Group. No problem. ”

"Okay, so be it. …… The situation is really not good......"

"Professor Y, you're done. ”

"'Labor protection gloves'?...... Well, 'protective gloves'. ”
