The girl sneered.

"I promise that tomorrow night, you will have dinner with me at the same table, and the old cat and I will serve you the braised beef-flavored biscuits and tomatoes that are treasured in Kunlun Station."

"So grand?"

"That's not it, Miss Mai Dong, you're a distinguished guest, I've kept the braised beef flavor well, and I'll give it to you when you come down." Tang Yue said, "I now eat pickled cuttlefish-flavored biscuits all day long, and I can't help but feel like I can't help it. ”

"Is this an agreement?" Mai Dong asked softly.

"Yes." Tang Yue nodded, "We will definitely keep you safe...... We're fully prepared, the Orion spacecraft will land safely, and the old cat promises it. ”

"Nalagou." The girl said.

"Pull the hook."

Both held out their little fingers.

"Hang yourself, you can't change for a hundred years! It's a puppy! ”

Mai Dong laughed eatingly.

"Hey Tang Yue, how many days is today?"

"Three hundred and twenty-one days." Tang Yue replied, "More than three hundred and twenty days have passed since the earth disappeared. ”

"Ah...... It's been three hundred and twenty-one days, and it's going to be a year soon. Mai Dong blinked, "But if you think about it, this period is really long, it seems that many years have passed, and the life on Earth at the beginning seems to be from a previous life." ”

As Mai Dong said, the two of them have been on Mars for less than a year, but in retrospect, it seems like a lifetime, and the life before leaving the earth has long been like a lifetime, Tang Yue recalled his family, friends, colleagues, teachers, those memories are broken and blurred, it is like the life of another person named Tang Yue hundreds of millions of kilometers away.

Sometimes Tang Yue is cranky and wonders if he will be born on Mars, and there is another Tang Yue on Earth with the same name and surname.

"I still remember...... Before I left, my mother came to the ground center to see me off, and she told me to remember to add clothes when I want to cool down, remember to eat breakfast every day, skipping breakfast is not good for my health, remember to call and send videos home on time, and drink more hot water, because I have a cold temperament. ”

Tang Yue's heart moved when he heard this.

Before leaving, he called his family, and his mother told him over and over again these contents, what to pay attention to safety, to dress well, not to catch a cold, to eat well, to deal with interpersonal relationships with colleagues, and the father stood next to the mobile phone receiver urging: Okay, okay, he is so old that he can not take care of himself? He's an astronaut, astronaut you know what? The state has an arrangement.

Mother is a very typical working woman, an ordinary member of the country's 1.4 billion living beings, who has not received too high a education, graduated from a junior college, is not a strong woman, does not have her own career, can only contact the highest level of society but the director of the street police station, and the farthest distance she has traveled to is Thailand and Singapore.

In her life, Mars is just a term in books and news, never a place that can be reached, she does not have a very clear concept of landing on Mars, let alone imagine a huge spaceship weighing nearly 1,000 tons, with Baidu Encyclopedia only to know that it takes two years to make a round trip, and was shocked by this, surprised to say so far!

Daddy was humming on the side at this time: Of course it's far away, it's Mars, do you know? Mars is at least ...... from Earth Son, how far has it come?

Tang Yue had already gone too far, as far away as stars in the sky.

"My dad was standing on the sidelines, and his face wasn't very good-looking, because he didn't support me coming to Mars, and he said I was too young and that this kind of thing should be left to the older people." Mai Dong continued, "I quarreled with him for this, and he even went to the director, slapped the table with him, and said, 'My daughter is only twenty-five years old, and you sent her to such a dangerous place, can you take responsibility if something happens?' Later, he was dragged out by his mother...... This was later told to me by email from my mother, who said that my dad had made a big fuss in the director's office. ”

"And then?"

"Later, I attended the training, and my dad slowly stopped saying anything." Mai Dong smiled, "My dad is the kind of person who is very rigid and tangled, and the most difficult thing for him to do in his life is to bow his head to people...... But he ended up with my mom to see me off, and he said a word to me from beginning to end. ”

"What?"

"He said to stay safe." "My mother later emailed me to tell me that my dad wiped tears all the way on the bus back. ”

"Your dad has a completely different attitude from my dad." Tang Yue sighed, "Sure enough, the girl is a treasure, and the son is a grass." ”

"What did Ling Zun say?"

"He said that if you can become an astronaut, son, this is a matter of glory to your ancestors! Go ahead, don't worry, I'll take care of your mom! Tang Yue pouted, "I said it's a fateful thing!" I may not be able to come back! You know what he says? ”

"What?"

"My second dad said that he also played with his life when he was young, and he fought with someone on the street with a knife, and was slashed in the back, but fortunately he reacted quickly, otherwise the knife would have been cut on the head." Tang Yue said sullenly, "He ran away with a knife wound, hid in a scrapped broken car, and scared a little girl passing by half to death, and then this girl became my mother...... My dad always said that if he didn't play with his life, he wouldn't be able to do it. ”

Mai Dong hugged his stomach and couldn't stop laughing, laughing until he was out of breath.

"Tang Yue, you have a lot of stories."

"Because I've not been a good student since I was a child, I make fox friends everywhere, I rely on myself to be a little smart, I make a surprise attack before the exam, and my score will not be too low, and I can stay in the top ten every time I take the exam." Tang Yue pillowed his arms, "So the teacher doesn't care much about me, it's different from a scholar like you." ”

"But the life of a scholar is boring, and I envy you." Mai Dong sighed, "When I was a child, my dad controlled me very, very strictly, every day after school, I had to go to learn English, learn piano, when I learned piano, he would stand aside with a whip, if I dared to be distracted, he would smoke the floor, and there were math cram classes on weekends, basically no free time." ”

"Can you play the piano?"

"A little bit." Mai Dong hesitated, "When I graduated from junior high school, I passed the tenth grade. ”

Tang Yue whistled.

Strictly speaking, Tang Yue's family and Mai Dong's family are completely different, Tang Yue came from the common small citizen class, people at this level are often mellow and philistine, kind but cowardly, and tenacious vitality, while Mai Dong is a typical Kochi family child, with the unique reserve and self-discipline of generations of scholars.

"It's getting late, girl, it's time for you to go to bed." Tang Yue said, "Take a good rest and ensure that you have enough energy to cope with tomorrow's work." ”

Tang Yue...... Will we meet tomorrow night? ”

"Yes." Tang Yue said vigorously, "We have already pulled the hook." ”

"Well, we've already pulled the hook." Mai Dong was relieved, she closed her eyes with satisfaction, and after a while, Mai Dong opened her eyes again, "Tang Yue? ”

"I'm here, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." Mai Dong shook his head, "Good night." ”

"Good night."

There was silence in Kunlun Station.

Curled up against the wall, eyes closed and ears drooping, the old cat was dormant like a normal cat, except for a little bigger—of course, some fat orange cats were about the same size.

The monitor on the desktop suddenly lit up silently.

The cat's ears in the shadows stood up suddenly.

A pop-up window of the communication system shows that there is a message to access the Kunlun station.

“HELLOMARS！” 8)
