Chapter 3: The Ironic Life

When Chenping woke up, he was already in a hospital bed. The internal organs were injured and three ribs were broken, but they have basically recovered under the treatment of the treatment instrument, and as long as they rest for two or three days, they can be discharged from the hospital!

"Stinky boy, you're finally awake!" Seeing his son wake up, Chen Haichao immediately leaned forward happily.

"Ping'er, are you still uncomfortable there? I'm going to call the doctor to come and see ......," Ling Susu, Chenping's mother, pushed her husband away and asked her son with concern.

"Mom......" As soon as Chenping saw his mother, his pathos immediately surged up, and he hugged Ling Susu and cried bitterly.

"It's okay, we're all right......" Seeing her son like this, Ling Susu couldn't bear it, and immediately cried.

"Alright, don't cry both! Everything has passed, isn't Ping'er okay now? Chen Haichao himself almost didn't hold back his tears, but he still opened his mouth to persuade him.

"Mom, I don't want to go back to that place......" Chenping, who had finally calmed down, pleaded excitedly.

"Not going back...... We don't go to that kind of place anymore. Let's go home now! Ling Susu said with tears in her eyes when she heard this.

"Aren't you adding to the chaos? The child's injury is just right, so he can be discharged from the hospital now! Chen Haichao finished teaching his wife a lesson dissatisfied, and then said to his son: "The case is over, you don't have to go back to that place." Now obediently recuperate in the hospital, and we will go home when the injury is healed! ”

"Really ......" Chenping was slightly stunned, then remembered what happened before he fell unconscious, and then slowly breathed a sigh of relief. But all of a sudden, he slapped himself hard in the face, making half of his face red.

"Son! Are you crazy? Seeing this, Chen Haichao and his wife were shocked and hurriedly grabbed their son's hands.

"It's not a dream! It's not a dream......" Chenhei cried again excitedly, not caring about the hot face at all.

"Silly child......" Seeing that his son was excited, Chen Haichao and his wife were relieved.

It turned out that the case was not over after Chenping pleaded guilty that day, and Lu Yiming submitted an investigation report on the identity of the deceased at that time. Let everyone know that the deceased is not an ordinary person, but an extremely vicious wanted criminal. Originally, killing a wanted criminal was also a crime, and Chenping could not be exonerated from the crime, but the key thing was that the deceased was still a new human - a new human with no entry record. So everything was different! According to the current laws of the Federation of Humans, any new human who enters the country without permission must report it or kill them on the spot once it is discovered, which is the duty and responsibility of all citizens of the Federation. Therefore, Chenping was not only not guilty of killing that person, but a meritorious person. However, this is a wartime regulation, and this is the first time this has happened in a peaceful world in the rear, so the judge hesitated, resulting in a prison sentence of several days.

"The lawyer discussed this with me, but he didn't tell you about it for the sake of secrecy. I just didn't expect you to be in such a bad state at that time, and I fainted on the spot! Chen Haichao glanced at his son apologetically, saying that he was really a little inconsiderate at the beginning.

"Really?" Although Chen Ping was a little surprised after hearing this, he really couldn't arouse any interest when he thought of the ninth-level star stripes on his body!

"Ping'er, what's wrong?" Ling Susu is not a machismo like Chen Haichao, and he only has heartache for everything his son has experienced. This is to see that his son's expression is wrong, and immediately know that he must have experienced something bad, so he asked with concern.

"I've been engraved with a ninth-level star pattern!" Chenping didn't hide it, and said sadly with his head down.

"What?" Chen Haichao grabbed his son excitedly, trying to tear off the gauze on his chest to see clearly.

"You're crazy, the kid is still hurt!" Seeing that her husband was so excited, Ling Susu pushed her husband away and scolded angrily. Although Starstripe is concerned about her son's future, she cares more about his son's health.

"Those damn bastards!" was drunk like this by his wife, and Chen Haichao also came back to his senses. Knowing that his son wouldn't joke with him about this, he couldn't help but sit down in his chair in frustration and cursed in a low voice.

"Isn't it just a starstripe, is it worth being so depressed? That's all you have to say! Seeing the appearance of these two fathers and sons, Ling Susu said dissatisfiedly: "The ninth-level star pattern is the ninth-level star pattern, can it really stand in my son's way?" I don't believe it! ”

"Mom is right, there is a truth about admitting defeat before the battle is fought!" Seeing his mother's confident appearance, Chenping couldn't help but lift his spirits, and there was a smile on his face.

"......" Chen Haichao looked at the two mothers and sons with a wry smile, and there was a sharp pain in his heart. He didn't speak, and he just didn't want to break the dream of his wife and children. This matter is as simple as the two imagined, when they used up their relationships and family wealth, they had to mark a pair of children with a five-level star pattern, that is, they knew the importance of star patterns to their children's future. How could this curse of eternal imprisonment be broken by mortals like them? Chen Haichao is desperate for his son's future.

A few days later, the city government and the military department held a press conference. Chenping, the "hero" who eliminated the A-class wanted criminal, was commended, and awarded him a good citizen and a third-class military merit medal. It can also be regarded as a whitewash for the young murderer who made a fuss a while ago, so that Chenping, a little hero, will no longer be discriminated against by the citizens!

Chenping walked up to the podium in a daze, took the medal a little overwhelmed, and then was praised by the mayor very sincerely. It's just that Chenping feels very awkward, he has suddenly become a "hero" from a murderer, and even he feels inexplicable as a party, not to mention those citizens who don't know anything! Chenping felt that in the eyes of most of them, he was like the monkey in the circus, just a little new and interesting.

"Mr. Chenping has the courage and wisdom to challenge the A-class wanted criminal 'Black Crow' at the age of fifteen to kill this hateful new human spy...... But this is only his current contribution, I have just learned that Mr. Chenping has signed the application agreement for the interstellar mercenaries in our city, this agreement that has been blank for twenty years, and today it finally sees the light of day...... Please give Mr. Chenping the warmest applause for his heroic deeds! The mayor's enthusiastic speech made everyone in the audience excited, and they began to cheer and applaud wildly, and even two or three young girls showed beautiful bodies for the mayor and Chenping on the stage!

Hearing the mayor's speech, the most shocked person was Chenping himself. He didn't remember what interstellar mercenary agreement he had signed, and it wasn't until he saw the familiar document in the mayor's hand that he remembered what had happened.

When I was in the prison, there was a guy who was very nice to Chenping. Not only did he not bully Chenping, but every time Chenping was abused, he advised him not to be impulsive and not to act against other people, so he was the only person in prison who could talk to Chenping. When Chenping complained that he didn't want to stay in prison, the guy inadvertently revealed a message that there was indeed a way to get out of prison. As soon as Chenping heard this, he immediately followed up and learned that the military department needed a volunteer soldier to engage in a reconnaissance work.

At that time, Chenping was also dazed, and at the instigation of that guy, he signed the agreement sent by the prison guard that night. Now that Chenping thinks about it carefully, it is clear that that guy has the intention to calculate himself and let him sign the agreement!

"He is worthy of being a young man, full of vitality. Much better than my stinky boy! The mayor walked up to Chenping and said appreciatively, "Chenping, you have set an example for the young people of Juyan City. So you can rest assured that the city will fully support you and let you get the best equipment and supplies during the operation. ”

"Can I not go?" Chenping thought in his heart, but under the mayor's eager gaze, he was rarely smart, and he didn't say anything.

At this so-called awards ceremony, Chenping knew very well that the real protagonist was not himself, but the mayor and the representatives of the military department in front of him. If you ruin their good deeds and make them ugly in front of the citizens, or on the surface there will be nothing wrong, but secretly it will be difficult to say! Therefore, Chenping can only work hard to play his role well, and only hopes that these big shots will take what they say seriously, so that he can get some protection in the next mercenary mission.

"This mission is to detect the 'Vortex Meteorite Belt', and you are assigned to the third mecha platoon...... Due to the limited time, you will say hello to your parents after the ceremony and you will officially enter the camp! When a man in military uniform behind the mayor walked in front of Chenping, he kindly reminded: "Don't think about other meaningless things, everything will obey the arrangements of the superiors after entering the camp, otherwise it will ......."

So the young hero of Juyan City boarded the battleship of the military headquarters just after receiving the award, and headed towards the "Vortex Meteorite Belt", the origin of the star stripe!
