Chapter XXXIII: Claire Cried

"Quick!" As soon as the lifeboat stopped, Shu Yunpeng immediately opened the hatch and jumped down, turned around and picked up Claire: "Doctor!" ”

Several people took off Claire's space suit and placed her on a folding bed, where the doctor covered her with an oxygen mask. Shu Yunpeng took matters into his own hands, took off Claire's close-fitting clothes, and checked whether she was injured.

She had a few bruises on her body, which should have been hit, and there were no other injuries. However, her face was blue and angry.

The hood of her spacesuit has cracks.

After some rescue by the doctor, her breathing was finally stable. Seeing that she was out of danger, Shu Yunpeng asked Qin Huaiyu and the others to move her to the captain's lounge, and he was busy cleaning up the mess.

Ship Nine rescued a lot of people, and the ship seemed crowded. There were too many wounded and there were not enough medical personnel, so Shu Yunpeng could only let the crew members who were not on duty help together, and he had been bandaging the wounded and comforting these female soldiers with blurred tears, and he never stopped. When everything settled, he was too tired to do anything.

He ate something, rested for a while, and went to the captain's lounge to see Claire.

The Nine ship went straight to Earth and did not go to the Martian base. His mission is to stay on Earth and there is no rescue mission. He only made a private agreement with Claire, and when Claire told him that the situation was dangerous, she didn't ask him to help, he was talking to himself.

What's more, with so many wounded, the medical supplies on the No. 9 ship were barely enough to treat the wounded in advance, and there was no way to carry out further treatment.

The Mars base should have medical personnel and medical equipment. But the remnants of the fleet have gone there, and there must have been quite a few wounded, and they should have been busy and happy. If you add the wounded rescued by the No. 9 ship, I'm afraid it won't be too busy.

"Captain!" Qin Huaiyu, who was guarding the door, saluted him.

"Is the Commander alright?"

"Well, I ate something and slept again."

Shu Yunpeng gently entered the lounge and approached the bedside to look at her, but found that her eyes were open.

"I'm sorry to wake you up," he said, "and sleep a little longer!" ”

"No, I can't sleep," her face was already ruddy, but her mood was very low: "What a defeat!" ……”

"Don't think about it," he reached out to touch her face and comfort her, "it's not your fault. ”

"I am the commander of the detachment, and I have a duty to ......" her tears flowed down: "So many people died......"

As she spoke, she covered her face and began to cry, her shoulders twitching as she cried.

"Don't blame yourself!" Shu Yunpeng bent down and hugged her: "If you want to say that, it should be my fault!" The balance of power was clear, but I was unable to stop the expedition. ”

He said as he picked her up and pressed her face against his chest. For a long time, in Shu Yunpeng's eyes, Claire was a majestic female soldier, a senior officer of the United Fleet, no different from a man.

But at this moment, what he saw was a woman, a little woman who needed comfort when she was wronged and heartbroken. Her body trembled slightly from sobbing, and her tears soaked the clothes on his chest, making him feel pity.

"Don't cry, okay......" he whispered softly, speaking to her for the first time like a girl: "If you cry too much, you will become ugly!" ”

She snorted and laughed: "I'm ugly, no one has ever said I'm beautiful......"

The commander of a detachment is usually unsmiling, and she is majestic in a military uniform, who dares to judge her? It's normal for no one to say she's pretty.

"No, you're beautiful!" He smiled and said, "The body is toned, well-proportioned, curvy, really beautiful!" ”

"You haven't seen it again," she said, "to comfort me, right?" ”

He laughed: "Yes, I didn't see it that day, but I saw it today...... In order to check your injuries, I took off your clothes......"

Two red clouds floated on her cheeks, and she knew that she was still naked, so she subconsciously pulled up the blanket covering her body.

However, she quickly calmed down, and it was a female commander again: "Have you counted the fleet losses and casualties?" ”

"No, it's not yet."

From a poor girl to a majestic female commander, he was slightly surprised. He immediately put away his pity and pity, and sat down.

"Oh!" She nodded, and then asked, "Do you know how many ships have arrived at the Martian base?" ”

"I don't know," he said.

"So, where is your Nine heading now?" Her eyebrows furrowed, "You didn't get closer to the Martian base?" ”

"Nope! Ship Nine is on its way to Earth. He replied: "My mission was to stay on Earth, and I was later ordered to intercept the mothership Jones bound for Earth...... Besides, there are too many wounded, and the Martian base should be overcrowded. I'll send it here again, I'm afraid I won't be able to accept it there. ”

Claire was silent. Indeed, in her desperation, she asked the Nine to intercept the Jones mothership, and then lost contact. The No. 9 ship rushed to the battlefield, and it was completely Shu Yunpeng's own initiative. Crookedly, the No. 9 ship acted without authorization, saved many people, and also saved her.

He's such an elusive person, and his head really works. No, even the fear that there are too many wounded will not be accepted by the Mars base has been taken into account.

However, after the death of the commander of the Combined Fleet, as a temporary commander, she must go to the Martian base: "Anyway, I must go to the Martian base!" ”

"The decision of the expedition is not in your hands," Shu Yunpeng smiled bitterly: "The mess can only be cleaned up by you!" This commander should be ......"

"Once again, you're not following orders!" She was silent for a moment and said with a smile. There was no reproach in her tone: "Now turn around and go to the Mars base." ”

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine...... Where's my clothes? ”

"I asked someone to clean you," Shu Yunpeng said, "and I'll ask someone to bring it to you!" ”

Shu Yunpeng turned around and walked out of the captain's lounge, and asked Qin Huaiyu, who was standing outside the door, to go to the laundry room and retrieve Claire's clothes. Then, he informed the wheelhouse and turned to the Martian base.

He didn't go back to the lounge, he went straight to the bridge.
