Volume 1: The New Era (2)

Minami Suzuki sat at his desk reviewing a report, the electromagnetic door 'hissed' open, and a person rushed into the office in a hurry. Suzuki Nan asked without raising his head: "Director Li, is there something wrong?" He is the only one who dares to come directly into this research institute.

"I heard you're going to let him go tomorrow?" Deputy Director Li's tone was full of dissatisfaction

Minami Suzuki put down the pen in his hand, raised his head to look at him, and said in a steady tone, "Not bad"

Deputy Director Li hurriedly said: "But the Supreme Council's decision is to keep him in this base!"

"Li Xiaoming" Suzuki Nan's tone became cold, and he was no longer polite: "The gang of people in the committee are old and confused, are you also confused?" Stay? What do you take to keep people staying? Arrested? The current core of Liu Yuxin has not yet injected energy, but it does not mean that he is safe, what if his core goes berserk? Do you want to facilitate a second 'fallen angel' incident? ”

Suzuki Nan paused for a moment, and his sharp eyes forced him to look at Li Xiaoming.

Li Xiaoming hurriedly shook his head and denied it.

"Even if you are lucky enough not to trigger the rampage, the arrest is successful. But what about the future? Now we have no means to put him in a coma, otherwise we wouldn't have let him wake up. Imprisoning him will only make him resentful, and don't forget that he is a special being who can advance on his own without any special cultivation. And no one knows what the opportunity for evolution is - he evolved the 'Super Regeneration' to break through the first order on the night of the star fall, and then inexplicably evolved the 'Super Perception' to break through the second order when we studied him! If it weren't for the fact that we have been using various means to contain it for so many years, he would have broken through the third and fourth orders long ago. As long as we don't kill him right away, there will soon be a fourth-order 'guardian' or even a fifth-order 'legend' who is hostile to usβ€”you should understand what that means."

Li Xiaoming shuddered, and opened his mouth to say something

Minami Suzuki immediately interrupted him strongly: "His genetically evolved autonomously and is very active in an abnormal environment, so the most important thing now is to make him feel that everything is normal." As early as 60 years ago, because some people's quick successes led to their genes to begin to evolve in a closed way, so that we could no longer extract genetic factors 20 years ago. Without new opportunities, the mothballed resources will soon run out, the 'Guardians' project will not be sustainable, and our base will be in danger of being disbanded. Director Li, we have come to this day with great difficulty, don't you care at all? ”

"But it's too risky to let him out like this!" Li Xiaoming was still a little hesitant.

"So Director Li has a more feasible plan?" Minami Suzuki's tone was as cold as the wind blowing from an ice cave, "Orβ€”are you dissatisfied with my decision?"

Li Xiaoming shuddered: "No, it's nothing." Director Suzu, you're busy, I'll go out first."

Minami Suzuki nodded. Li Xiaoming disappeared quickly outside the door as if he had been granted amnesty.

"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Suzuki muttered to herself. I was bored for no reason, and I no longer had the heart to review the documents, so I put the report into a special elevator on the right side of the desk and activated the switch with my palm print. The elevator swiped up the track at a rapid pace, and after a few seconds it reached the canopy of the building and opened the door with a "woo".

The canopy of the base has its own purpose, but it is generally the core part of the building. For example, the umbrella cover of a building that develops weapons must be a weapon warehouse and a raw material warehouse, while the umbrella cover of a building that researches new vehicles must be an extension of the vehicle reserve and take-off and landing platform. The canopy has been set up as a small community, completely simulating the external environment, not only adjusting the brightness of the light to create day and night, but also all kinds of buildings and even some passers-by can be seen from time to time, except for the blue sky and white clouds overhead, which is basically the same as the ground.

The two uncles who were setting up stalls on the side of the road saw Suzuki Minami approaching from the elevator, and stood up with a standard military salute. Suzuki Minami shook his head: "You are just two traders now, not any soldiers, and you don't need soldiers!" Without any stopping, he walked straight into the gate of a garden-style courtyard, leaving the two newcomers looking at each other. The courtyard that Suzuki Minami enters is designed according to the garden, and in the center of the courtyard sits a rockery of considerable size, the surface of which is covered with moss and some low weeds. A clear stream from the top of the hill meanders down from above, eventually merging into a small meandering ditch and leading into a large pond on the other side. A few gardeners who were busy on the lawn at the bottom of the mountain saw Suzuki Minami, who was coming slowly, stopped their work and shouted in unison: "Director Suzu."

Minami Suzuki nodded in response, and then asked, "Is Suzune in her room now?"

One of them replied, "Miss Suzune hasn't been out of the room since dinner, so I don't know what I'm busy with."

Suzune's room is on the pond on the other side of the rockery, a retro wooden house stands suspended above the lotus leaves in the pond, and there are four railings extending on all sides, and the wooden pontoon bridge carved with various birds, fish and beasts is connected to the pavilion on the shore. However, this is not a high-end application of anti-gravity technology, but because the support base that rises from the pond is made of refractive material, which is not visible to the naked eye, so there is no technical difficulty and it will not damage the environment. It was a resting place that Minami Suzuki personally built for himself back then.

Suzuki Minami, who was walking quickly to Suzune's bedroom, slowed down and gently pushed the door open. In the middle of the pink-style room is a simple wooden bed, and the corners on both sides of the bed are covered with various dolls, and the walls are covered with all kinds of photos of Liu Yuxin's life at this base. There are those who are happy, and there are those who are angry; Some are lying down, and some are eating; It basically covers all aspects of life, and this kind of messy furnishings destroys the entire elegant atmosphere vividly, making people wonder if they have crossed a space in one step. On the left side of the simple dresser, a double ponytail Lori in a princess dress is quietly sitting next to the drawing board and sketching, and several crumpled paper balls lie quietly in the wastebasket at her feet.

"Aunt Mei, is there something wrong?"

Sensing that someone was at the door, Lori stopped her paintbrush, looked at her masterpiece for a while, and then turned her head

"Mom, you're back so early? Do you want to ring me? ”

After discovering that it was Minami Suzuki, her big ruby eyes were full of surprise, and she cheered, threw away the pen and threw herself into her arms

Suzuki Minami touched her head: "Yes, I think our family has a bell sound - are you obedient today?"

Ling Yin's red eyes like jewels rolled, and he said crisply: "I have a good one today!" If you don't believe Mom, you can ask Aunt Mei."

Aunt Mei is Suzune's life assistant and is in charge of taking care of Suzune while Suzuki Minami is away. But Suzuki Minami won't be stupid enough to really ask her for verification, she dotes on little Lori far more than her own mother.

Seeing that her mother was suspicious of her oath, and was afraid that Suzuki Minami would continue to ask, Suzune hurriedly threw out a killer idea: "Dad is leaving tomorrow, right?"

Suzuki Minami was sad for a while, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Suzune broke free of her arms and looked at Suzuki Minami worriedly: "It seems that Mom likes Dad so much!" Because Suzune had never seen her mother show such an expression before. Or - Tomorrow Suzune is going to leave Daddy behind? Mom, you know, Suzune Super Fight" Suzune Lori held her little hand in front of her chest and put on a posture of 'I'm super fierce'.

"Poof" Suzuki Minami was amused by her, and rubbed the little Lori's head lovingly: "Silly child"

Little Lori, who was full of vitality just now, immediately deflated, pursed her lips and muttered: "It's not a stupid child!"

"I like your father very much" Minami Suzuki fell into the memory, his eyes glazed over, and his face glowed with happiness: "On the first day I met my mentor, he told me that your father was a masterpiece left by God on the earth, a miracle above all living things, and taught me how to appreciate this thrilling magnificence. I've been dreaming and waiting! Do you know the ringtone? When your father first woke up, I was so nervous that my hands were sweaty when I shook hands! But your father is unexpectedly funny and easy to get along with......"

Suzune listened with a look of fascination: "I really want to meet my father, I don't know if he will like me like my mother"

Minami Suzuki smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Suzune is so cute, he will definitely like it very much"

"Mom"

"Huh?"

"I also have a gift for my father, can you give it to him for me tomorrow?"

"What kind of gift, can you let Mom know?"

"I'm going to give me to Daddy"

β€œοΌŸοΌŸοΌŸβ€

"I'm leaving here today, I wonder what's going on outside?"

For more than a month, Suzuki Minami often came to visit Liu Yuxin, and after getting acquainted with each other, Suzuki Minami's title naturally became Sister Suzuki. With her help, Liu Yuxin basically doesn't make any jokes in her daily life now, but it is too early to say that she lives independently. This world is extremely cruel: since the starfall occurred, mutated creatures have frequently injured people in various places, and finally 21 years after the starfall incident, there has been a large-scale xenomorph wave all over the world, and countless small countries have perished in this event, and the people have almost been slaughtered. At the moment of crisis for the survival of mankind, the surviving countries finally cooperated seamlessly to form an organizational structure to deal with this situation, the "Alliance of the Common Front of the Xenomorphs" to jointly resist the pressure from the Xenomorphs, and the war between humans and Xenomorphs has not stopped since then. The long-term state of war has made modern civilization focus on warfare against xenomorphs, and all resources have basically been poured into science and technology and biotechnology that determine the fate of mankind, while the progress of other technologies has been slow or even stagnant. For ordinary people who have no special skills, they can only feel the deep malice of this world.

The Tiandu College of Higher Education where he will study not only has strong teachers and advanced equipment, but also has a president who is a hero of the last war, and his strength is unfathomable. The students are geniuses and elites gathered from all over the world, and the top students who graduate from the college are definitely famous even if they are not known to the world, and it can be said that they are the top cultivation institutions in the world. Liu Yuxin actually refused to go to such an academy in her heart, can you find an ordinary college? Studying there is not always a fancy beating! But Sister Ling unexpectedly had confidence in him, saying that it was not a problem for him to say that the college could graduate from elective courses. I really don't know where her confidence comes from.

Liu Yuxin pinned her bangs to the right side with a purple cross hairpin in the mirror, looked at herself in the mirror and nodded. I still remember the first time I dressed up like this at the base, Sister Ling first smiled and then couldn't straighten her waist, and at that time I knew that I had been teased by several aunts in the welfare home for more than ten years. But instead of being angry, he remembers their lives with the orphanage, and this form is retained as proof that they once existed.

When Liu Yuxin walked to the landing platform, Suzuki Minami was waiting for him at the hatch of the 'Dawnbreaker' space battleship. This kind of spindle-shaped aerospace warship is more than 80 meters long and more than 20 meters high, and its whole body exudes the high coldness of top technology. On the surface alone, you can see several hideous gun ports, not to mention the countless lifting turrets and other tactical weapons hidden inside the ship's hull, which are used as means of transportation, which is really exaggerated. But Minami Suzuki said that due to the confidentiality regulations, her travel must have a high level of security, and because she is going to a friend, this configuration is extremely simple and low-key!

After Liu Yuxin sat down, Suzuki Nan gave the order to take off. The Dawnbreaker's engine spewed a dazzling blue glow, and the hull slowly lifted vertically off the ground, and after a dozen seconds, it had climbed into the stratosphere and began to fly towards its destination. Minami Suzuki took out a cloth bag from the locker and handed it to him: "No, someone asked me to give it to you"

Liu Yuxin opened it and saw that it was a delicate drawing board, on the drawing paper of the drawing board clip was a full-body sketch of a double ponytail Lori holding a rabbit doll, the upper left corner of the paper was written "to the dearest", but the back was blank, and the inscription in the lower right corner was the word ringtone. Liu Yuxin looked at this gift like a token of love and was confused, and looked at Suzuki Minami with a puzzled face.

Suzuki Minami's face turned red and glared at him: "What are you looking at?" Not me! ”
