Part.23
Because Su Yang and Natasha were in charge of the VF-3000 series of tactical tests, and even handed over most of the general work of the wing to the deputy wing commander, they had no time to deal with Grandpa Mao's funeral, so they could only let Rick take care of it. It was only on the day of the final cremation that Su Yang took the time to accompany Ma Ao to retrieve the ashes.
Because Su Yang obtained the custody of Mao, in order to facilitate the care, Mao moved to Su Yang's residence and lived with him and Natasha.
"Now I'm busy, and you're on a leave of absence, so you can come to the logistics base of the wing first, wash clothes and earn money." On the way to the team, Su Yang said to Mao in the back seat of the car.
Natasha, who is in the co-pilot position, added: "When we are busy, we will help you find a better cram school to catch up on your homework and prepare for next year's university exams." β
"That'...... That one...... Will you be able to see him often? Ma Ao squirmed, wanting to speak and stopped, revealing a girlish shyness. Natasha deliberately pretended to be confused and asked, "Who?" Who's at the base? How do I know if you don't say so? Could it be your boyfriend? β
This made Ma Ao even more shy.
"Because a lot of the base is a forbidden area, you can't run around, you can only wait for him to find you. However, at least when it is time to change clothes and eat, you can meet. Su Yang couldn't stand it, and Ma Ao was "molested" by Natasha.
"Hey~~~ Now I'm starting to look at my sister!" Natasha deliberately pretended to be angry, "What can I do about this?" I don't want to be bullied by your brothers and sisters in the future! β
"It's okay, Mao, I like my sister the most!" Ma Ao walked around the seat and gently wrapped her arms around Natasha's neck from behind, "It's great that I can meet you!" It's been a long, long time since I've felt like being surrounded by love......"
As she spoke, Mao burst into tears and dripped onto Natasha's shoulders. Natasha gently wiped away her tears and kissed her cheek. In this way, Su Yang felt a little relieved, at least he could see Ma Ao every day, and he didn't have to worry about her safety anymore.
"Do you want to tell Mao about her future? I clutched it in my chest, and I always wanted to say it. When Natasha and Su Yang were having lunch, they watched Mao and Rick eating together, and said casually.
Su Yang shook his head, "The biggest charm of life lies in the uncertainty of the future. If you are told early, it will be fun. Anyway, her future is bright, don't say it. β
Hearing this, Natasha said no more.
I don't know if it touched something, Su Yang seemed to fall into contemplation, "If there is no 'inner self', Ma Ao's life will return to the predetermined development trajectory of history." β
Natasha felt a little baffled.
"It turns out that the person who really guided Mao on the right path in life was not me, but Rick." Su Yang explained, "The purpose of my existence is only to speed up the process, but not to change the way. β
"It seems that time also has the ability to revise history on its own, and all we are in is to speed up or slow down the realization of what history is set to do." Natasha couldn't help but feel a little comforted in her heart. Because she has always been worried about Su Yang's love for her, will it be because of the interference of the "inner self" and become not pure.
"Is that the so-called worldline containment theory?" But Su Yang felt a pain in his heart, as if this was something he hadn't considered, or wasn't willing to consider. His lips began to tremble slightly, and he couldn't help but mutter, "That is, megaroad-01 will still disappear......"
The voice was so low that even Natasha, who was beside her, only listened to it, so she asked Zhangzui.
"By the way, has the superior approved it to go to the Pacific Ocean for the offshore no-supply training?" Su Yang suddenly diverted the topic, and his expression was a little unnatural.
Natasha took out a small notebook and looked at it a few times, "Well, it's approved!" However, it would be a pity that I couldn't take her back to my hometown. β
"Such a remote island, no vegetation has been restored, it is bare, just bring her a few pictures back when the time comes." Su Yang hurriedly filled a few mouthfuls of rice.
Natasha closed the notebook very dissatisfied, "Hard-hearted! β
Su Yang was silent, still eating as before. Actually, Natasha didn't know why Su Yang's actions just now were a little abnormal.
"Hey~~~ The people you introduced, BeyoncΓ© is not very interested~~~~" Natasha became distressed again, "I looked at the conditions, they are all pretty good~~~ She really doesn't want to find a soldier, right?" β
Speaking of which, Su Yang did introduce a few soldiers to BeyoncΓ© this time, but they were all rejected.
"Then I'll look for it again. If it really doesn't work, forget it. Su Yang finished eating the rice in the bowl and wiped his mouth.
Natasha listened and could only agree.
Just then, a soldier came over and said, "Report to the Wing Commander, Colonel Claudia is looking for you." Currently, she is waiting for you in your office. β
So, Su Yang hurried over.
Knocking on the door, Su Yang happened to see Claudia sipping black tea.
"Things are not going well~~~ What is the purpose of her coming here? What is the way to get information? What is the way intelligence messages are delivered? We all need to make tentative confirmations. Claudia put down the teacup in her hand.
After Su Yang stepped forward and finished saluting, he stood straight in front of her. "So that's why Colonel, you agree to the training of flying in the open sea?"
"Before I answer your question, you need to confess to me." Claudia's eyes suddenly sharpened, "How much do you know about Aforce?" β
Suddenly, the atmosphere became subtle. Su Yang replied almost instantly: "I'm sorry, I don't know the meaning of this codename. β
"That's right! After all, you weren't in the army yet. Claudia breathed a sigh of relief, "That's what happened at the end of the war. β
"First of all, please forgive me for hiding something from you." Su Yang saluted again, "Actually, I chose Mayang Island, and there is a personal reason in it." That is Mao's grandfather, who wants to scatter his ashes in his hometown after death. β
cough cough cough ~~~
Colonel Claudia coughed a few times in quick succession, "I didn't hear what you just said. However, Mayang Island will be a temptation, so be prepared. β
