Chapter 53: Sister and Brother

"Well, that's still hard work for you. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" glanced deeply at the little girl on the screen, and Zhou Xin walked out of the command cabin.

Then, a few days passed, and the battle on the surface of the planet continued tepidly, with the melee between uncontrolled aircraft still the main theme of the battle, and occasionally the two sides would send a dozen warships to fight fiercely in small fights in parts of the equator. And this kind of local war is basically a victory or defeat between the two sides, and the occasional victory is nothing more than the loss of more aircraft by the losing side, which has no impact on the overall battle.

The investigation of the base on the asteroid also reached an impasse, although the items collected by the probe on the asteroid fragments were brought back to the spacecraft in the early morning of the next day, but when the engineering robot managed to open the containers like boxes, Zhou Xin couldn't help but be disappointed. From the outside, the appearance of the boxes is relatively well preserved, but the contents have long been destroyed by the heat and rays, and basically adhere to the inner wall of the container. The only surviving are two metal badges, and the metal badge that was supposed to be round has now been slightly deformed, and the flat surface of the badge has changed to the shape of a saddle. However, even though the deformation is severe, the pattern on the surface of the badge is still recognizable, with a clear drawing of a pair of hands, crossed into fists, leaving a circular space in the middle, and a ball in the center of the gap. The first time he saw the orb, Atlas recognized it, it was a miniature model of the planet, on which the two continents on it were clearly identifiable.

Aside from these two badges, the engineering robot has never found any more valuable clues in the items recovered by the probe, and even if Atlas himself searched for them, nothing came of it, and there was nothing to prove by these two badges alone. Suddenly, everything about the base inside the asteroid was a mystery, and only a few speculations could be made by a sudden explosion and two badges. In the end, Atlas can only speculate on two points - one is that there is a high probability that the asteroid explosion is a nuclear-related explosion, which was basically determined earlier, but Atlas still can't find enough evidence for the specific type of nuclear explosion; Second, judging from the remaining building structures and the two badges found, it is very likely that this base belongs to the northern continent. Other than that, Atlas has no way to draw more conclusions.

On this day, the crowd was once again concentrated in the command module, and somewhere at the equator, a local war began again.

Looking at the two sides of the battle in the picture, Dart said thoughtfully: "Judging from the situation in the past two days, the two sides may still be afraid, otherwise the scale of the battle will not still be expanded." ”

"But—" Zhou Xin asked suspiciously, "if that's the case, then what's the point of them engaging in such a pointless local battle?" ”

"It's not pointless." Dart shook his head, "The two sides are just testing each other, preparing for the next big war. And, from our point of view, the battle is pointless today, but for them it may not be. ”

After listening to Dart's words, Zhou Xin did not express his opinion, but continued to look at the screen, and now the battle on the screen has entered the most intense stage, the aircraft of the two sides are fighting fiercely in the middle of the two warships, and the warships of the two sides are also attacking each other. But although it looked very intense, the course of this battle still hadn't changed much compared to before, so before the battle continued, Zhou Xin already knew what was going to happen next. After a moment's view, he turned his attention back to the command module from the screen, but just as he was about to speak, Atlas interrupted him with a sudden remark.

"Brother Captain, Brother Captain, those two aliens are awake." Atlas's excited voice rang out in the command module.

"Are you awake?" Hearing Atlas's report, Zhou Xin's tone became surprised and delighted, "How is the situation of the two of them now?" ”

"How's it going?" Atlas's tone became hesitant, "This--Big Brother Wren is standing in the doorway of those two aliens' rooms right now." ”

"What is he doing at the door of the room?" Zhou Xin asked strangely.

"It's better to see for yourself, brother captain." The little girl said helplessly.

In the camera, Zhou Xin saw that the originally tidy room had now become messy, and many things had been thrown behind the door and piled up together, and even the cabinet that was originally placed next to the hospital bed was now tightly behind the door, and the door was tightly closed, and through the window on the door, Zhou Xin vaguely saw a person standing outside the door wearing a protective suit, thinking that it was Dr. Wren.

"What's going on?" Zhou Xin asked, turning the camera in the direction of the hospital bed.

When the camera switched to the first hospital bed, Zhou Xin unexpectedly found that the hospital bed that was supposed to be lying on a person was empty. He couldn't help but be shocked, and a thought immediately popped up in his heart, "Where have people gone?" But as the camera continued to move, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw two aliens sitting in another hospital bed.

Compared with before, the two aliens sitting on the hospital bed have now recovered significantly, their original pale faces have become a lot more ruddy, and the lifeless appearance when they were lying on the bed is long gone, although they still look a little weak, but it is obvious that there is no major problem. Now they were sitting on the edge of the bed in the hospital gowns that had been changed into them later, still talking something, and occasionally glancing at the door, as if they were worried that the blocked door would be opened at any moment. Zhou Xin also noticed that there was an infusion bottle hanging at the head of the two beds, and there was still more than half of the liquid in the bottle, and the needle that should have been inserted in their arms was now hanging at the head of the bed, and it seemed that the two of them seemed to be awake on the way to the infusion.

"How did you get to where you are now?" After looking at it for a while, Zhou Xin asked.

"Originally, the medical robot was injecting them with today's nutrient solution, and then suddenly found that their physical condition was slightly abnormal, so they went to see Dr. Wren, but what they didn't expect was that the two aliens had already woken up, and after the medical robot left, they blocked the door as quickly as possible, and then it became like this." Atlas gives a brief account of what happened earlier.

"......" After listening to Atlas's introduction, Zhou Xin felt a little speechless, and was slightly stunned for a while, he smiled, "What two cunning little guys." Then he smiled even more happily, "Haha, I'm afraid these two little ones don't know that all the doors on the ship are not open-closed, but push-pull." After laughing for a while, Zhou Xin asked, "What are the two of them talking about now?" ”

"Brother Captain, do you want to hear it?" Atlas said, and then he began to translate the conversation between the two aliens-

"Sister, I'm afraid, when will we go home?" One of the aliens said in a trembling voice, and at the same time, Zhou Xin saw a panicked look on his face.

"Brother, wait patiently for a while, and someone will come to take us home in a while." The other alien whispered comfort, but Zhou Xin still heard tremors and uneasiness in it. At the same time, he also understood that the two aliens turned out to be sisters and brothers.

"How long will it be before someone will really come and take us home?" The younger brother asked.

"Yes, someone will come, and it won't be long before we can go home." When she said this, her sister's tone became extremely firm, as if she was cheering up her brother and comforting herself at the same time.

After my sister said this, my brother's expression calmed down a little, but it didn't take long for him to sit still, "Sister, sister, when can we go home?" Less than ten minutes later, my brother asked the same question again.

"Wait, someone will take us home." My sister's tone became a little uncertain, but she forced herself to calm down and replied.

After repeating this conversation a few times, even the elder sister began to become a little impatient, and after the younger brother asked the same question again, she finally couldn't help it, she raised her voice a little, and said sternly, "Be quiet, I want to think about how to get you out of here." It seemed as if she had already decided in her mind that no one would come to save them.

Just after the elder sister finished shouting, the younger brother showed an aggrieved look for a moment, and it didn't take long for him to suddenly start sobbing in a low voice, "Mom and Dad, where are you?" I want to go home. ”

Hearing her brother's cry, my sister panicked all of a sudden, she hurriedly stopped her thoughts, and began to comfort her brother in a low voice, after a long time, my brother's crying finally subsided, and then he returned to his previous appearance, and then he asked, "Sister, when will we be able to go home?" ”

Hearing her brother's question, her sister suddenly showed a headache, but this time she didn't dare to be as strict as before, she comforted helplessly, "Wait, my sister is already thinking of a way, I'll take you out in a while, you can play in the room for a while." ”

This time the younger brother seemed to be obedient, he let go of his sister's hand that was clutching the ground, and then began to observe the room, and as he observed, his face showed a curious look.

For the rest of the day, the older sister sat on the edge of the bed and thought sadly, while the younger brother walked around the room. He seemed to be curious about everything he saw, and from time to time he would pick up something from the ground and look at it carefully, even an ordinary cup, he would stare at the pattern on it for a long time, until he was pricked by the hanging needle on it when he picked up the infusion tube curiously.

After being pricked, the younger brother quickly retracted his hand, then shoved the pricked finger into his mouth and sucked it, while the expression on his face changed to that he was about to cry, and it didn't take long for him to sob.

The elder sister, who was sitting on the edge of the bed and pondering, was suddenly awakened by her brother's voice, and saw her younger brother squatting on the edge of the bed, still holding his fingers in his mouth, and his face showed a crying expression. She hurriedly walked up to her brother and asked with concern, "What happened?" ”

"It hurts—" said the younger brother timidly, and he put his hand in front of his sister.

Glancing at her brother's fingers, my sister understood what was happening, and she asked, "Why were you so careless, what was the puncture?" With that, she helped her brother up and sat him back on the edge of the bed.

The younger brother stretched out his finger and pointed to the infusion tube next to the bed, and the older sister followed the younger brother's finger and found the existence of the infusion tube. She walked over to the bedside, picked up the needle hanging there, looked twice, then looked along the tube to the other end, and found the infusion bottle hanging from the bedside shelf.

Standing on tiptoe, my sister took the infusion bottle off the shelf, flipped it from side to side twice, and then she stared at the text on the bottle.

After looking at it for a while, my sister's face showed a puzzled look, "It's strange, it's not our text, and it doesn't look like those people's words." So who exactly uses these words? Where have I been? After looking left and right for a while, she realized that she really didn't understand what the label on the bottle was, so she gave up and hung the bottle on the corner of the bed.

Then, the elder sister stood there for a moment, and then finally began to observe the environment in the room, but due to the previous toss, most of the things were piled up by the two siblings at the door, so she went to the pile of items in the door and looked through them.

Zhou Xin noticed that unlike her previous brother, the alien sister's attention was not focused on those beautifully crafted items, but was interested in items with words. Once he found an object with a pattern similar to the text, he would always hold it in his hand and look through it for a long time, but after a long time, she still did not see the familiar text on the found object. Having gone through almost everything, she stood up disappointed.

"Where are we, Mom and Dad, where are you?" Zhou Xin also had a hint of crying when she heard her sister's voice, but in order not to frighten her younger brother, she held back her crying.

"Brother Captain, those two siblings are so pitiful, let's go and take a look." Atlas used to have a very close relationship with the children of Atlantis, and now seeing this situation, he said with some embarrassment.

Zhou Xin nodded, "Since they woke up, then I'll go over and have a look......"
