The controlled puppet counts as red.

A free person who retains his true self can be seen as the Blue Side.

Different from the blue-red situation between the earth and fire, Xu Changqing, who represents the red side this time, is very strong, especially since he is also counted as a member of the blue side.

An important gathering of all the freemen at the Blue Side, in the dining room and chess room, after lunch.

Hugo, a new medical assistant who is also considered to be part of the unpossessed alien, is a young man known for his bluntness.

Hugo asked a question: "According to you, those people used to be bastards who liked to cause trouble. Now that I have become conscientious and self-contained, it has not hurt everyone's interests, why can't I accept it? ”

Thomas, the driver, said: "It's not a question of what they have become, it's that this change is extraordinary, abnormal, weird. ”

"That is, there is a conspiracy?"

"Uh......"

Xu Changqing answered: "It's not a conspiracy yet. Human beings are always afraid of the unknown, and these people are too drastic in their changes, and they don't know why this is happening, so they are afraid. ”

Victor, the captain of the mechanic team, nodded: "Gaiss is right, I have spoken more than once, their memories are not missing, the only problem is that their temperament has changed greatly, if it is one or two, it is easy to understand, but so many people seem to be contagious and have become excellent employees, this is really incredible." ”

Xu Changqing said again: "I also took the opportunity to give them a physical examination, and there is no problem at all, they are very healthy, much healthier than in the past." ”

Nick, who has been promoted to first officer, answered: "Yes, those bastards seem to be planning to work part-time as a bodybuilder and exercise like crazy every day." ”

Chef Thiago chimed in: "Is it a problem that we have to shorten the voyage due to the excessive consumption of ingredients? ”

Nick glanced at Thiago, and said angrily: "No, because those bastards work much more efficiently, it is expected that they will finish the work in six days in ten days, according to this efficiency, go home early, and get a higher reward than returning on time." ”

Li Qiong also joined the discussion at this time, and said, "Do you know what is the most terrifying? The guys in the mechanic team seem to have suddenly opened their minds, not only are they seizing every opportunity to repair the ship, but they are also using everything they have at hand to carry out magic changes, as if they have become senior technicians in the modification factory overnight. I think that with their craftsmanship, they can start a company and make a living by building ships when they go back. ”

Building a ship, just like building a computer (computer) in the origin world, the Earth-Moon Federation, and the Republic of Mars all have it. However, the most cutting-edge is always the asteroid belt, and the ships here, except for those ordered by large companies, are all saved from loose parts, which naturally involves matching problems, especially the parts involved in a ship are really many, so it is almost inevitable to replace the magic change, and at the same time, there is a world of difference between good and bad.

Xu Changqing was shocked in his heart when he heard this, this pot was naturally his, but he really lacked a sense of security about the Constantine, so in the process of hypnosis, he added technical private work, and then this kind of thing happened, and he was seen through by an engineer like Li Qiong.

Nick said, "Here's the funny part. When I go back, I believe that the company will not only not take these people, but also want to assign them to every ship, hoping to infect more vampires, and wish that all employees were model workers in the Republic of Mars. Especially if it doesn't cost the company a dime. ”

Quartermaster and Captain of the Guard Mary then said, "I have to apologize to Geth in public here, because I have noticed that all the people with great changes in personality are frequenting the infirmary, and since Gus has changed a lot in recent months, I think he is the culprit." ”

David also apologized: "Since you broke the plan of the mechanic team to make extra money by overhauling the Constantine, I have a prejudice against you, and I have been saying bad things about you behind your back recently, I'm sorry." ”

The navigator Sara also apologized: "The Constantine has become the scene of a thriller and suspense, and I am suspicious and look like a villain." Everyone discussed you privately and said that you were the source, and I believed it. However, Liz and Garcia, who have never even said more than a word to you, have also changed, and everyone knows that you are more wronged. ”

Xu Changqing smiled: "Although I was in danger and was eliminated by everyone, it is fair to say that I was wrong in this matter." It's because I've changed so much in recent months that I've caused a misunderstanding. ”

He then explained briefly: "I was originally the heir to the throne, but my uncle usurped power, took the throne, and wanted me in the name of a traitor, causing me to go into exile in the alien realm. ”

Li Qiong was surprised: "It turns out that it is Prince Abbas!" ”

Sara said, "You have revealed such an important secret......

Xu Changqing waved his hand: "The dust has settled, my uncle has taken care of all the opposition, he has secured the throne, it is time to show his magnanimity and wash away his notoriety." I have been forgiven for this, and now carrying my head will not only not receive a reward, but will also cause a commotion, so whether I want it or not, everything before has gone with the wind, and now and in the future, I will be Zahid? Gaiss lives as a person, and he doesn't have to live the life of worrying about being killed by bounty hunters while hoping to get the throne back. ”

"The prince's fall is hard to remember! Tsk, your story is not bad. Nick sighed.

Mary stared at Xu Changqing, looking emotional, eager to come on the spot, obviously for a female man, riding the prince is like a princess of the silk man, there is a deformed sense of temptation and satisfaction.

Xu Changqing naturally won't give Mary a chance, in the last month, if it weren't for flying such a strip, Mary would have violently entered his room and rode on him to play 'Hey!' 'That's it.

Of course, Mary, who he can fight with one hand, can't take care of herself. But doing so would inevitably expose that Mary was the first to fight on the whole ship, and the original first had already gone to the Alexander with the former captain.

Chef Thiago brings the topic back to the most vexing matter: "What do we do now?" Stick together? Even if you go to the toilet, you follow a person, and don't give those monsters a chance to infect? ”

Nick shook his head: "Laris's is already their man, he is very strict with his work now, and we will only fall into the conversation regardless of the time and occasion." ”

Captain Victor suddenly thought, "You say the culprit is not Larris?" We all know that guy is going crazy when he's depressed, and you've seen the plant sketches he posted all over his room and the way he walks back and forth talking to himself. As a result, he first became the captain of the ship, and then took the initiative to ask for antidepressant treatment, which is likely to be a cover-up, and it is very likely that there is an unusual story behind his ability to become the captain of the ship. ”

Thomas, the ship's pilot, looked sad: "If it's really Laris, it will be the worst, because there is no good reason to cause the captain to die unexpectedly." ”

Indeed, before the captain boarded the ship, there were relevant inspections to prove that he could be qualified for the position of captain in terms of energy, physical fitness, mentality, etc.

Xu Changqing knew that Laris could become the captain of the Constantine, and there was indeed something behind it, but Victor naturally guessed wrong.

Navigator Sara said indignantly: "The most annoying thing is that Jenny, the information officer, has also become one of their people, and I really miss the days when I had a fight with Jenny." Without Jenny, we wouldn't have been able to send out a distress signal. ”

David couldn't help but say, "After talking about it for a long time, I still haven't done anything." ”

Xu Changqing pretended to be appeased: "Unfortunately, we still have two guards available." In addition, I will continue to do my job well, hoping to suppress it, and even if there are any bad signs, I can notify everyone in time, and what everyone needs to do now is an emergency evacuation plan. ”

Hugo, the new medical assistant, said: "So what if one of the people who made the plan was infected soon after?" ”

The crowd was silent.

In the end, Nick said: "We have to believe something, or we are so suspicious, and we are really all finished." Let's make a rough plan first, in terms of details, you can only improvise, the more detailed you are now, the easier it is to make mistakes in the future. ”

There was no better way, so they all agreed.

In fact, Xu Changqing has no intention of further expanding the scope of control, because he has discovered the shortcoming of this control, that is, creativity.

In the words of the fairy way, it is spirituality, and as soon as it is controlled, it loses its spirituality, which he has not been able to solve so far.

These controlled puppets can only do what they can, or teach them how to do, and let them complete tasks spontaneously and creatively, they can't.

In this context, if the Constantine encounters an unexpected situation that it has never encountered before, the puppet's ability to cope will be very poor. He is bound by the law, and he can't do remote control of multiple targets at a distance, so he can do everything.

Therefore, the navigator, the chief pilot, the chief officer, the mechanic captain, these important positions are normal people will be safer, as for the rest that has not yet been controlled, it is all companionship, do not leave some companionship, these people will take risks or go crazy due to the lack of security.

For example, if the head chef Thiago is controlled, these people will rarely be suspicious of the food.

As the days went by, and since no new infected people appeared for a long time, and the puppets did not show hostility or desire to attack the free people, the free people were secretly relieved, although they were still worried, but not as anxious as some time ago. Optimists among them began to believe that there was a chance to smoothly return to the Alpha space station.

The collection task was completed three weeks ahead of schedule, and the people of the mechanic team were crazy about magic changes, and even dismantled a considerable part of the equipment that was still in use for this purpose.

At the same time, more than 80% of the spare parts in stock were also used, and the result was that the Constantine was not a brand new look, but almost the same. This can be seen from the fact that the electrical noise that is often heard inside has been greatly reduced.

And what shocked the mechanic captain Victor and engineer Li Qiong was that these people even dared to change the reactor! Victor complained privately: "Why didn't those people rush into space naked?" There is nothing on this ship that they can't move, they dare not move! ”

The only thing that comforts these free men is that these monsters can command, and as long as the order is reasonable, they are willing to do it.

As a result, the two very dilapidated Guards No. 1 and No. 2 lifeboats, which had not been used for a long time, and which were almost a problem to cope with the company's inflow of safety inspections, were repaired and renovated, and some additional reinforcements and magic changes were made.

It was piloted by Thomas, the chief pilot, who said he would be able to drive two Guards directly back to the Alpha space station.

The Constantine set out on its return journey, and by this time, all the puppets on board had become fierce combatants, who had modified their own spacesuits and conducted military drills against pirate hijacking.

In the process, the puppets inevitably have to use weapons. This caused the crowd to be nervous, and Mary almost tore her face.

In the end, it was Xu Changqing who came forward to suppress the matter.

The main reason he used to convince people was that even without weapons, there was little suspense for the puppets to take them down. Their IQ is not bad enough to do this kind of thing of taking off their pants and farting.

In addition, the captain's anti-piracy drill was quite justified, and even the company was willing to see it. It's just that few captains engage in this kind of 'labor and money' thing.

Then, if Mary disobeyed, Lariss would be able to remove her from her post justifiably.

The crowd, including Mary, considering the importance of the quartermaster, finally decided to take the risk of compromise.

As a result, nothing happened.

It must be said that Xu Changqing's crossing made many things different on the Constantine, but it was only a change in details and did not affect the big things.

This voyage itself has been calculated, even if their operation this time is very efficient, but because of the communication with the star port, I thought that it was still possible for the people with a heart to calmly complete the trap arrangement, and they were waiting for them to eat the bait......
