Chapter 233: Not yet, it's almost there
"Oh, there, it's asteroid 273!"
"Asteroid 273?"
"Well, it's one of the main asteroid groups, basically all asteroids within 1000 numbers."
"Well, the same goes for our base, asteroid 265." Su Ruyu mentioned it casually, and then asked, "How could such a hole suddenly appear here?" ”
Lu An stared at the hollow, but for some reason he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he felt as if he had heard the name, and he seemed to have a special intuition about this asteroid. It's just that I can't remember it for a while, and now it's a critical juncture, so I pressed the feeling in my heart.
"Wait two minutes, I'll see."
Lu An stretched out his hand and gestured on the starry sky map, and with the movement of his fingers, the starry sky map also changed rapidly, making Su Ruyu, who was watching, feel dazzled.
Although the two of them are now facing a life-and-death decision, if they continue to move forward, they are likely to be caught up by the relentless pursuit of the warship behind, and then become garbage floating in space, buried forever in the dark and cold space; And if you immediately turn around the direction of the spacecraft's flight and change the course and plunge headlong into the unknown space flight route, it will be equally dangerous and unpredictable, and the fate is still uncertain.
However, Su Ruyu still quietly watched Lu An pointing at the starry sky map.
Sure enough, after two minutes, Lu An stopped his movements and glanced at Su Ruyu silently.
Su Ruyu asked with concern, "How's that?" ”
"It's hard to say." Lu An shook his head, saw Su Ruyu's concerned gaze, and explained: "It will take us four hours to rush over from here, but we may not be able to get rid of the warship behind, and the channel where this asteroid is located, if I am not mistaken, is the channel to the earth, and calculating the astronomical position during this time, this asteroid is still five days away from the earth......"
If you have a very wide bird's-eye view that can sweep the orbits of the planets of the solar system for billions of kilometers, then you can see hundreds of thousands of asteroids in the asteroid belt, like garlands dotted between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
The asteroid belt surrounds the interior of the arch guard, which is Venus, Mercury, Earth, and Mars in the solar system, and when the four planets are in different astronomical positions, you can bypass the other three planets from different positions in the asteroid belt to go directly to a certain planet, just like a circular elevated road connecting the east and west of the city, north and south, and the exits at different locations can go directly to different parts of the city.
At this moment, Mars and the Earth are in orbits far from each other, and each is moving towards the farthest ends of the Earth-fire orbit, so the direction of asteroid 273 that can reach the Earth directly means that it is exactly the opposite direction to Mars.
Su Ruyu raised her eyebrows and asked, "In other words, is it still possible to be caught up, and then the two of us will finish playing?" ”
Lu An smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Hehe, yes."
After listening to Lu An's words, Su Ruyu took a deep breath, then stood up from the sleeping bag, walked towards the driver's platform, and turned back and said: "I decided, anyway, if you continue to escape like this, you will die, although you may not survive if you change direction, but there is always a glimmer of life, what if the group of mad dogs behind you find the wrong direction?" ”
"Okay, listen to you."
Lu An sat on the sleeping bag, rubbed his hair, and rubbed his face, and then stood up, followed Su Ruyu to the bridge, and watched her quickly set the course and turn the flight direction of the spacecraft one hundred and twenty degrees.
The anti-smuggling patrol boat, which was originally heading towards Mars, suddenly made a big turn, and its flight trajectory towards Mars seemed to be refracted, running against Mars and flying towards the 273 asteroid.
"If we wait to catch up again, you might as well think of your last words as soon as possible!"
After setting the course, Su Ruyu turned her head and said to Lu An.
"What's the use!" Lu An smiled bitterly.
"Let's say hello to my family, many people have to say goodbye when they go out or separate, how can they not say goodbye to life and death?"
Is it? However, there are also many people who never say goodbye when they go out or separate, and there are many life and death parts that catch their families off guard.
Words? Probably yes.
However, Lu An didn't know what his father's last words were; What his mother's last words were, Lu An didn't know; What his brother's last words were, Lu An didn't know.
Therefore, Lu An had no choice but to shake his head and smile bitterly, neither arguing nor agreeing.
"By the way, how could that asteroid 273 look like that?"
That look, of course, refers to the hole in the starry sky map, and so many shipping lanes around it are far away from the asteroid. If you don't know, at first glance, you think there is a black hole there!
Lu An clicked on his brain, projected all the starry sky maps that he and Tanaka Baihui had drawn out from the headquarters of the anti-smuggling team before, and checked them to find clues.
It's just that after more than ten minutes, Lu An shook his head and said, "It's a pity that we have too little information to get over and haven't found any useful clues." ”
"Forget it, I'm just asking casually. More importantly, though, what do we do when we get to asteroid 273? If the group of guys behind doesn't catch up. ”
Belch......
When looking for a route before, Lu An didn't think about this question, but now that he was asked by Su Ruyu, he suddenly blinked and didn't know how to answer.
"Why don't we go back to Earth?"
"Back to Earth?" Su Ruyu glanced at him, "I'm sorry, my home is not on Earth." ”
"Ahem, I'm just talking."
"You'd like to meet your sister!"
"Yes." Lu An nodded.
"What if they are caught as deserters by the gendarmerie? Are you sure it's you who went to see your sister and not your sister who went to see you in prison? ”
Lu An smiled slightly and said, "It's better than staying in the prison of the anti-smuggling team, and what if the gendarmerie is merciful and doesn't hold me accountable for the crime of desertion?" ”
"Oh, then you're young and ignorant."
"Don't worry, if we really pass the 273 asteroid, then it's really better to return to Earth directly, I will have a way to ......"
"How? Are you going to go to the person who lied to you? Su Ruyu said angrily: "It's not impossible to go back to the earth, but when you get to the earth, you can go as far as you want, don't get caught." ”
Lu An smiled and nodded, and replied, "Don't worry, you can't catch it." ”
Su Ruyu glared at him and didn't say anything more, but Lu An pointed to the sleeping bag he had just slept in and said, "There should only be waiting left, do you want to rest for a while?" ”
"No, I'm going to wait."
"Well, let's talk."
"Don't talk."
"Then you can rest for a while."
"No breaks."
……
Then, twenty minutes later, the conversation in the cab changed.
"You're not asleep, are you?"
Su Ruyu nodded.
"Let's talk, then."
Su Ruyu nodded.
"Let's get back to Earth in a moment."
Su Ruyu nodded.
"Do you owe me a million?"
Su Ruyu nodded.
……
Lu An looked at Su Ruyu, who was lying on the driver's platform and nodding like kowtowing, amused for a while, gently pushed her, and saw that she had no reaction, sighed and picked her up. Then, as if holding his sister in his arms, he gently put it in his sleeping bag, pulled her hair for her, and wrapped the sleeping bag tightly.
Will it catch up?
Lu An walked lightly to the porthole, clasped his hands, and looked at the dark space, his heart was heavy and worried.
Before, although the two of them talked and laughed, and even pulled the topic far, far away, they didn't seem to care about the warship chasing behind them, and they didn't even shy away from death, as if it was just a trivial trouble.
Is that really the case?
When Lu An picked up the boneless Su Ruyu just now, he hugged his sister, but in fact, he really remembered his sister.
I don't want to leave a last word! I'm going back to see my sister. As for this broken deserter, whoever likes to be it, I'm going back anyway.
……
Six hours flew by again.
Su Ruyu was also suffocated and suddenly woke up.
Seeing her eyes open and squatting next to her sleeping bag, Lu An let go of the two fingers that pinched Su Ruyu's nose.
Su Ruyu's eyes were hazy, and she stared at Lu An for a while before asking, "Is this revenge?" ”
Lu An smiled and shook his head.
"We're here?"
Lu An shook his head.
"They're catching up?"
Lu An nodded.
Su Ruyu's eyes gradually brightened, staring at Lu An brightly, and after a long while, he asked, "What should I do?" ”
Lu An sat down cross-legged beside her.
"Wait."
"Okay, wait."
Su Ruyu slowly sat up and sat cross-legged on the sleeping bag.
Then the two were silent, and time passed minute by minute, and Su Ruyu asked, "Did you catch up?" ”
"Not yet, soon."
After a while, Su Ruyu asked again, "Did you catch up?" ”
"Not yet, soon."
"Chasing 、......"
"Not yet,......, uh."
Lu An looked helpless, moved to the sleeping bag, arched Su Ruyu, and the two sat back to back.
"Did you catch up?"
Su Ruyu asked vaguely.
"Not yet, soon."
After Lu An finished speaking, he turned his back to Su Ruyu and lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
Not yet, not dead yet?
Soon, dying?
This feeling is really annoying, but this woman who is back-to-back with herself really shouldn't be like this!
Neither should I be!
I'm going back to see my sister!
If I had listened to her advice three days ago, would I not have this kind of calm numbness now, calmly waiting for the coming of death, waiting for the final judgment of fate?
Now there is no struggle, quietly waiting for the last moment.
In six hours, Lu An had shaken off all the fear, panic, and ugliness in his heart. I don't know, has she also shaken off these things of herself in her dreams?
About, it doesn't matter.
"Chasing ......"
"Not yet, soon."
"Hmm."
