The sun appears from the other side of the earth, its light shining on the silver-gray metal, dazzling, but also dangerous.

"The B-4 squad came back to rest, and the sun appeared."

This is another calm one on the "new earth", this large iron ball that has not yet been built is also rotating like the earth, although it still looks like an apple that has been gnawed a large bite, and it is casually thrown into the universe Zheng The construction workers in charge of the construction outside the new earth do not commute to work according to Greenwich Mean Time (the standard time on the earth), but according to the rotation speed of the new earth after the appearance of sunlight.

The shell of the new earth is very hard and also has the ability to absorb solar energy. Unlike the Earth, which has an atmospheric filtration, the solar energy conversion rate in the universe is very high. The solar energy collected by the new earth can now be used to supply electricity through cables to the nearby colonies that were created to build the new earth.

The colonial satellite of a plaarsman on the outskirts of the New Earth is particularly conspicuous, and it is deliberately painted gold to make it look magnificent. Maybe the mean people will do this as the nouveau riche, but everyone knows that "Shang" is the headquarters of the Moore Chamber of Commerce.

There is a wonderful room inside the "Shang", and it is common to refer to the space enclosed by walls, windows, and doors as a room. But this room is different in that it is connected to the outside by only one door. When the door is not in use, it is like a special display that fills the room, projecting the environment of the outside universe in real time through the camera. It makes you feel like you are in the universe, stepping on the stars, watching the earth and the moon rotate, and that experience will be extraordinarily wonderful.

However, only a few people can enter this room, as this is the office of the successive presidents of the Moore Chamber of Commerce. Even the long-time partners of the Moore Chamber of Commerce, the big tycoons, rarely get a glimpse of this room.

Fortunately, the corridor leading to this room was also designed in such a way that it was called the "Starry Sky Corridor". The staff of the Moore Chamber of Commerce often went to the hallway to take selfies, but the section near the chairman's office was still not allowed to pass. And those rich businessmen who couldn't get into the room also found someone to get one for themselves. But unlike the Moore Chamber of Commerce, most of the rooms they built were used to show off.

"Here, please, Dr. Hohenheim."

A blonde woman in a suit leads Dr. Hohenheim through the "corridor of stars." The first time he walked through the area, Dr. Hohenheim nearly fainted due to visual discomfort. But now even some colonial satellites have built similar corridors to attract tourists, and he has long been used to it.

How many times have you walked through the "Starry Sky Corridor" this time? Dr. Hohenheim asked himself as he watched himself walk above the Earth (because the colony satellite Shang is now turning to this angle). The answer is that there are not a few times, as the deputy director of the Humanoid Weapon Development Department of the Chamber of Commerce, the chairman usually only summons the director when he has something. Coupled with Dr. Hohenheim's gloomy aura and unsociability, he felt that he was not likable to those businessmen.

The blonde was Chairman Moore's secretary, and she opened the door to the chairman's office for Dr. Hohenheim. Suddenly, Hohenheim felt as if he was truly in the universe, which was incomparable to the narrow corridors.

The president of the Moore Chamber of Commerce was waiting for him behind a desk in the center of the room, without which he would have thought he had entered the universe without a spacesuit.

Thomas. Chairman Moore stood with his back to the gate, staring intently at the sun that appeared behind the Earth, as if he were wandering into the universe. He reacted to the secretary's reminder and turned to call Dr. Hohenheim over.

"Doctor, come here."

Hohenheim felt very unsteady when he stepped on the "cosmic floor", and his movements were a bit like those tourists on the glass plank road in Zhangjiajie. Hohenheim himself didn't know why he had just passed through the "Starry Sky Corridor", which had the same trick, and his steps were unsteady after entering this room.

"Hahaha, I'm not used to it, it's the same when I first came. Without the foreshadowing of the Starry Sky Corridor, it would be even more dangerous to step directly into this room. ”

Chairman Thomas got up and helped Hohenheim to his desk and sat down in his place. He didn't say hello either, and came up and asked, "Dr. Hohenheim, I heard that the development of the Ten Swords No. 9 is almost complete?" ”

"Yes. At present, it has progressed to 98% and will be able to leave the factory soon. ”

"Hmm."

Chairman Thomas touched his fat belly, pulled a cigar out of his suit pocket, and smoked it.

"Do you smoke? Cuban. He asked Hohenheim.

"No... I don't smoke, but I'm addicted to coffee... In the current environment of the earth, can the cigars produced still be smoked? ”

Chairman Thomas smiled: "Red wine from the earth is still in demand, even if the environment is polluted, human beings still have attachment to Mother Earth." ”

Dr. Hohenheim coughed and asked, "Ten Swords No. 9, where are you going to send it?" ”

"Why are you asking this?"

"The second unit that was originally given to HER was stolen, and I thought you would compensate them with another one."

Seeing that the chairman did not answer, Dr. Hohenheim said seriously: "If you really want to send it, give the No. 8 machine to HER!" Anyway, the function of the No. 8 machine is also the most useless now. ”

Chairman Thomas shook his head: "Don't worry, I'll send the 9th to Mars." ”

"That's the HER-controlled area!" Dr. Hohenheim couldn't help but slap his hands on the table, which was a very rude gesture.

Chairman Thomas glanced at him: "It's different, you don't understand." Dr. Hohenheim, after the completion of Unit Nine, you will go on vacation on Earth. ”

"You're going to fire me?! I still need to be developed for the development of the tenth machine! ”

"No, no, don't be nervous. You are still my important subordinate, and I will find you back after the vacation, but you have to let go of the development of the No. 10 machine and the development of the next two sets of equipment of the No. 2 machine. ”

"I see," Dr. Hohenheim pushed his glasses and turned to leave, but suddenly stood still and turned his head to ask Thomas, "Mr. Chairman, may I ask you a question?" ”

"Yes."

"Why do the drivers of the Ten Swords have to choose people who are no more than 20 years old?"

Thomas put down his cigar and looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Don't you think it's cruel? The battlefield is full of young people in their 20s who are working hard, and you have to pick the best of them. ”

Thomas shook his head: "I don't think that many forces have a conscription age requirement of 18 years old or above, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with this." ”

“… So why deliberately limit the age range, many good drivers are over 20 years old. ”

"I have my own considerations, you can go back."

Chairman Thomas waved his hand and chased Dr. Hohenheim away.

…

"Have you inquired?"

"I heard that Thomas is going to send Nine to Mars."

"We're not going to let that happen."

"Please."

Dr. Hohenheim hid in the restroom, using a modified cell phone to communicate with someone.

"Then I'll hang up, your heart."

"Wait a minute, I... I asked about that. ”

"What? You asked Thomas directly? Ah, I've been with you several times, and that doesn't matter! ”

"But I always find it strange that Thomas seems to have ulterior motives..."

"Alas... You're so tired, maybe you really should take a good vacation. That's it, I'm hanging. ”

The communication was cut off, and Dr. Hohenheim put down his phone and took out a report that showed the Moore Chamber of Commerce's investigation into Lynd'.
