Chapter 179: Bitterness is sweet

This is a world of gray rock and white ice, the largest star in the asteroid belt, which is the end of Lu An and Su Ruyu's journey, the first asteroid discovered in human history - Ceres.

Unlike the pure white ice world on Europa, the planet's colors are mottled and somewhat oppressive.

Of course, in the asteroid belt, many desolate stars are much more hideous in color than Ceres, and the main reason why people feel this way is because this planet is home to the largest rogue organization in the human world, the "Anti-Smuggling Team".

Yes, "hooligan organizations", this is the general impression of anti-smuggling teams.

Unlike the good impression people had of the Space Combined Fleet before the last war, this seemingly seemingly unborn organization has not had a good reputation since humanity entered the galactic calendar.

Even, often the name of the anti-smuggling team is associated with other organizations with a negative impression.

In the list of "hooligan organizations" that have been circulating on the Internet today, the surface patrol team and the anti-smuggling team are the two mad dogs that are often pulled out as examples. In the last war, they were indeed briefly replaced, but by the "Combined Space Fleet" or the "Outer Planet Joint Defense Fleet", which was considered more ferocious at the time.

Moreover, there is no lack of political propaganda in the war.

After all, in the midst of war, in the eyes of the people of each planet, the most vicious and rogue is nothing more than the force of those on the other side, that is, the opposite "United Space Fleet" or the opposite "Outer Planet Joint Defense Fleet".

As for why the surface patrol team has such a bad reputation, Lu Anzhong has never doubted, after all, he has personally experienced the majesty of the surface patrol team, and has been fighting against these "dog noses" with a keen sense of smell for many years, so it is strange that Lu Anzhong can have a good impression of them.

On the contrary, if the surface patrol team did not have such a bad reputation, Lu An would be angry.

"However, it is normal for the surface patrol team to run around the earth all day long like mad dogs, and to annoy people. But if the anti-smuggling team hides in this desolate asteroid belt all day long, why would they have contact with ordinary people except those who deal with those smugglers? And where does their bad reputation come from? ”

As for the "madness" that was used as evidence at the beginning, it may not be so reliable if you think about it carefully.

After being chased by the anti-smuggling team for several months and running around the asteroid belt for fifteen laps, such an "innocent and kind" smuggler is really sympathetic!

However, let's not talk about whether the gray area of smuggling is morally illegal, just because such a desperate smuggler in this case can run for several months with the "extremely vicious" anti-smuggling team behind him, how can he be the same "crazy" and "extremely vicious" person, right?!

"Where does the bad reputation come from? Don't connect with ordinary people? Snort-"

When Su Ruyu heard Lu An so suspicious, she couldn't help but sneer.

"Is the anti-smuggling squad naturally an anti-smuggling organization? The anti-smuggling team doesn't deal with ordinary people? Why does the anti-smuggling team have a bad reputation, hehe, go to the prison of the anti-smuggling team and take a look. ”

Lu An heard the voice, "Is the anti-smuggling team an anti-smuggling team organization?" ”

"Of course, is the gendarmerie just a gendarme? Presumably, the people of the moon will seriously oppose your idea when they hear you say this. ”

Not up to the name? But since the name of the anti-smuggling team is called, and it is hiding in this desolate asteroid belt, if it is not anti-smuggling, what is the meaning of the existence of this organization?

Lu An pondered and meditated during the flight to Ceres, and later he discovered an important suspicion in the process.

Yes! It's as if this organization really appeared out of nowhere.

The establishment of the surface patrol team is due to the "Regulations on the Comprehensive Protection of the Earth's Water Bodies" in the first year of the galactic calendar, and it is endorsed by a document that has real legal effect.

But what about the anti-smuggling squad?

Since the beginning of the galactic calendar, the human world has always advocated interstellar free trade, and there has never been a word of smuggling, and even if people have generally accepted the existence of "interstellar smuggling" today, no one has ever thought about what "smuggling" is.

Since it has never been explicitly banned, why should such activities be deliberately set up to crack down, ban and prohibit them? And, to use this method of formation of unknown origin?

Even, Lu An was even more suspicious, whether the so-called "interstellar smuggling" was established first, or the so-called "anti-smuggling team" first appeared interstellar smuggling?

In short, no matter how the origin is a mystery, the anti-smuggling team does not have a good reputation in the entire human world, but it is a very certain fact. And, perhaps because of this, the anti-smuggling team really ran all the way down the road of notoriety, going farther and farther.

For example, the establishment of a private interstellar prison completely ignores the existence of all the laws of the Supreme Council, as evidenced by the notorious anti-smuggling squad prison. Its reputation is so great that it can even scare children who can't stop crying.

It is precisely because of this notorious situation that this strange organization, whose origins are a mystery, has always been a freak in the army.

No organization or department in the human world is willing to take charge of this anti-smuggling team, and the Supreme Council pushes it to the headquarters of the coalition government, and the headquarters of the coalition government pushes it to the joint command, and the joint command is unwilling to directly govern this anti-smuggling team, so it pushes it down and decreases in turn.

Therefore, the anti-smuggling team has been huddled in the asteroid belt, but because it doesn't care about the sky and the earth, it has grown freely and freely for a long time, this feared freak has flourished for a while, and even developed into a decisive political force, participating in the competition of various planets in the human world.

For example, this is how the Mars branch of the former anti-smuggling team came about.

In the last war, the anti-smuggling squad shrank into obscurity, and even in reality, it was forgotten.

In the last war, it was the Joint Space Fleet and the Outer Planet Joint Defense Fleet that really competed on the stage of the asteroid belt. It wasn't until after the war, when the anti-smuggling team once again flaunted its might in the asteroid belt, that people suddenly discovered, "Huh? How come this rogue bastard hasn't died in the last war? ”

This kind of villain's hateful face makes people evaluate him so badly that it seems to have refreshed the lower limit again. Even Lu An was unconsciously exposed to it, and his impression of the anti-smuggling team became gray and gloomy.

Especially when Lu An experienced more than ten days of interstellar voyage and his mood was depressed to a very obscure level, when he saw the gray-white planet Ceres, his mood was even more discouraged.

When Liu Yuan took Lu An to the asteroid belt, he didn't know if it was the deliberate flattery of that Bei Ye, although it was said that the two of them were brought to the asteroid belt by the way, but the appearance of the spaceship made Lu An suspect that Bei Ye had hijacked a real interstellar passenger spaceship.

Spacious and comfortable lounge, ample hot water and food supply, complete entertainment facilities, fast flight speed, in addition to the poor network signal, Lu An really couldn't be more satisfied with the smuggling cargo ship called "Unicorn".

Therefore, when he first set off from the main base of 9786, Lu An didn't think about the hardships of the sky journey at all, he just kept complaining in his heart about the "grandpa's grandpa" "grandpa's" antiques, and was very ashamed of the strange and bad appearance of the Armstrong Boom cannon, especially when he got into the inside of this spaceship.

However, after more than ten days, Lu An experienced what it was like to spend more than ten days in a space three meters long and two meters wide. And this was supposed to be a space for one person, but now it is crowded with two people.

If Lu An had to choose to use one word to describe it, then Lu An would inevitably raise his limbs in agreement with the word "prison".

Stand up straight and reach for the "ceiling", turn around and face another person in an awkward position, and all your physical needs must be addressed without privacy. Lu An endured and endured, so he spent the past ten days without changing his face like Su Ruyu.

At the beginning, Lu An still had the mood and strength to chat with Su Ruyu, to discuss the situation they were about to face, to be curious about what Ceress looked like, and to think about the reputation and origin of the anti-smuggling team.

But after a few days, Lu An lost interest in these things, and he was depressed and just wanted to hurry up and feel the feeling of gravity. Although the Armstrong Gyro Acceleration Jet Armstrong Cannon was designed to simulate gravity through centrifugal force of high-speed rotation, the antique ship that Lu An is riding on today can no longer simulate gravity stably, sometimes floating in space and sometimes overloaded.

In the end, Lu An, who was a little spinning, could only sigh secretly in his heart.

"I was born to live on Earth, space has nothing to do with me, I don't belong here at all......"

When Ceres came into Lu An's eyes, he was already indifferent, not curious at all, but just said something in his heart to this gray and white planet.

"Oh, has it already arrived? What an ugly planet! ”

Then, he slapped the dormant chamber "bang", and Su Ruyu, who had already fallen asleep, was lying in it.

"Hey, hey, we're here, get up! Hey, heyβ€”"

Since Su Ruyu fell asleep, this antique-level spaceship had been automating in space for three or four days, and Lu An, who had been worried, finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Ceres.

Although Su Ruyu assured him before hibernating, "When I came here before, this spaceship flew over on autopilot, what are you worried about!" ”

But Lu An couldn't rest assured about this "Armstrong Roundabout Acceleration Jet Cannon" at all, what if it had a problem this time? Wouldn't I have to drift in space for nothing?

Why did Su Ruyu leave Lu An alone and lie alone in the dormant warehouse to sleep?

Mainly because this spaceship is already a small space, it can only accommodate the next person's dormancy compartment, and Lu An can't squeeze into it. And Lu An also knew that this "perennial alcoholic" female military doctor was in very bad physical condition, and she was obviously unable to support it a week after departure.

Therefore, Lu An had no choice but to be alone, letting this "grandpa's grandfather", "grandpa's grandfather", "grandpa's" "grandpa" level antique, drift in space with himself.

Now, the days of suffering have finally come to an end, Lu Anfang Buddha has seen the dawn of hope, he just wants to jump off the spaceship quickly and taste the bitter sweetness.
