Chapter 78: Space Exploration (Part 3)

The wedding was held three days before the take-off of the "Blue Mercury Messenger", and Li Qing and Liu Qing'er, a female newspaper reporter, had already reported to the world's major newspapers and online media a day in advance. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoEver since Lucy and White Cloud Knight predicted that the "1983TM" asteroid was hitting Earth, the pair of "golden boys and girls" have long been in the news. At this time, it once again attracted everyone's attention. Nineteen years ago, it was known that there were two female humanoid prodigies in the "undersea city", and with the whereabouts of the other female humanoid prodigy unknown, all reports of humanoid prodigies suddenly disappeared - and the sudden appearance of the mysterious "White Cloud Knight" from the Space Castle attracted the world's attention; Nineteen years have passed, and people are still worried about the situation of the humanoid prodigy, and this time many online media have once again publicly reported the news of the comeback of the humanoid prodigy, and people's attention has been attracted again, no less than the news that the "1983TM" asteroid is going to destroy the earth. Naturally, their wedding attracted a lot of attention around the world.

The wedding ceremony was held in the auditorium of the Global Aerospace Headquarters. The auditorium is very distinctively architectural, with a round and flat dome surrounded by a flat central convexity, like a flying saucer placed horizontally, and like a microcosm of the Milky Way - countless stars radiating soft colorful light. The auditorium was already full of guests, including Professor Johnson of the Global Aerospace Headquarters, Chief Engineer Ling of the Outer Space Defense Headquarters, and naturally the "White Cloud Knight" and Lucy's colleagues.

"White Cloud Knight" and Lucy's parents both came, and there was also a distinguished guest, Li Qing's ex-boyfriend, Liu Qing'er's adoptive father Xiang Tianyu, who arrived after receiving a call from his daughter. Mary was very happy to see Li Qing and Xiang Tianyu, they hadn't seen each other for nearly 20 years. As soon as they met, Li Qing and Xiang Tianyu said hello to Mary and Mike, saying that they didn't expect that the little girl back then would have grown into a big girl now - and she would happily become the bride of the "White Cloud Knight" on this day. Mary looked at Li Qing beside her and said, You don't care how old your "daughter" is. Liu Qing'er is very busy today, she is Lucy's "bridesmaid", and she has to use the microplayer to report on the scene, while the best man, "Black Knight" Jack, uses his button camera to shoot "White Cloud Knight" and the bride Lucy anytime and anywhere. Professor Johnson, as the officiant and the elders of the bride and groom, spoke at the wedding, he highly praised the efforts of the "White Cloud Knight" and Lucy to save the people of the earth, and called on the people of the world to build up confidence and cooperate with the United States of the World to do all the work to avoid disasters, and mankind will definitely defeat the "1983TM" asteroid! At the end of his speech, he wished the couple a happy life.

In the choir's beautiful hymn, the "White Cloud Knight" puts a wedding ring on Lucy, and Lucy puts a ring on the "White Cloud Knight", and then the two of them walk out of the auditorium next to each other. The sun was shining outside the auditorium, and the cool and humid sea breeze was blowing through the two of them, and Lucy's white wedding dress was fluttering and dancing in a thousand styles. The "White Cloud Knight" had a solemn expression, very righteous and awe-inspiring, but in fact, his heart was also surging with indescribable joy. There is a famous saying that goes like this: "Happiness is to love and to be loved." On the third day after the wedding, the two of them flew to the moon base with the rest of the Space Castle crew.

Today's moon is not the first time that man has set foot on the desolate, dead and bright moon in 1969, and mankind has built many bases on it for 200 years, the largest and most advanced of which is the "Pacific" base of the United States. At this moment, the "White Cloud Knight" is walking in the interior of the "Pacific" base, and since the gravitational pull of the moon is one-sixth of that of the earth, people can walk lightly. In the mid-22nd and early 23rd centuries, people no longer had to carry a huge walker on their backs or be towed by long cables to walk on the moon, and everyone had something like a miniature vehicle behind their back, but the walker they used now was much smaller than that one, and could be turned on or off as they wished. At this moment, the "White Cloud Knight" did not open it, he just walked aimlessly on the dust like a feather.

Not far from the station, on the launch site in the middle of a crater, the "Blue Mercury Emissary" is quietly dormant there. From the outside, it looks like a big ugly beetle, because there is no air in the outer space, so there is no need to consider the problem of air resistance, and it does not have to be streamlined like the space shuttle of the past.

He thought back to the meeting he had just finished in the base's control room. Since arriving at the base, they have had a meeting every day. At the previous meeting, Jack questioned whether he could find the Time Tunnel. The "black knight" thinks that earthlings have never been to such a far place, how can they find that time tunnel that no one knows where or what it looks like? Many of you at the time agreed with the "black knights" that they should return to Earth for more practical work. But Lucy insists on flying to deep space. She said: "What did you people do earlier, now that the spacecraft has been built and people have arrived at the moon base (and even built the Mars Arctic Space Launch Station occupied by the humanoids of the "Dead Planet"), you have changed your mind again, you are simply delaying time by doing so, and taking the lives of people on earth seriously!" ”

Seeing that they were blushing, the "White Cloud Knight" didn't say anything more, and walked out quietly. Lucy wanted to accompany him, but he refused, and fell back into a helpless panic. At this time, the "White Cloud Knight" had already arrived at the launch site, and saw more than a dozen technicians still doing the final maintenance work before departure on the aircraft. For no reason, at this moment, Lucy seemed to feel that there was another person in contact with the extraterrestrial "image", and a faster-than-light spaceship was about to take off. No, it can't be, there won't be anyone in this world who thinks exactly the same way as her. She knew that there were people at the Martian Arctic Space Launch Base (overrun by the Dead Planet) doing the same job, but they wouldn't be that fast, and even if they were, they wouldn't take off with them and pass through the time tunnel together. This is the secret between her and the "image" in the shadows, and no one else can know. But it was just a feeling, and she didn't take it seriously. When the White Cloud Knight returned from the launch site, the meeting had dispersed, and Lucy was waiting for him in their room.

All the rooms at the lunar base are airtight, double-decked, and people are removed from the mezzanine before entering the room, and then enter the room through a pressurized chamber. Although this set of procedures is troublesome, it is essential, but fortunately, most of the rooms in the base are connected, and you don't have to always put on and take off the moon suit, which saves a lot of work. The "White Cloud Knight" entered the house and found that Lucy had not yet slept, but was leaning on the pillow and looking at him affectionately. When he saw her innocent appearance, his mood improved, and he said, "What's so beautiful, I'm not a monster." ”

"You're a monster, little monster." Lucy said with a straight face, "Where have you been all this time, leaving me alone in this dry and tasteless room." "It turns out that you don't think there is any smell here, the toilet has a smell, you should go to the toilet." The White Cloud Knight said amusedly. "You're bad, you're bad!" As she spoke, Lucy raised her fist and thrashed it at the White Cloud Knight who was sitting on the edge of the bed. After three strikes and two blows, the White Cloud Knight's heart was beaten like a pony rampaging in his chest, so he put his arms around Lucy and didn't let go no matter how she beat him. At first, Lucy was still very strong, and there were people who talked and laughed, but when she shouted and shouted, she suddenly softened, and a white cloud knight was at the mercy of him. The lights in the room dimmed, and the breathing of the two men gradually became rapid and heavy.

Late at night, just as the White Cloud Knight and Lucy were sleeping heavily, the emergency caller in the room went off, accompanied by the beep of the alarm, and the red light on the ceiling flashed on and off. "What's wrong," the White Cloud Knight asked, staring at the ceiling. "There's a flying object flying to Titan, please come to the control room with the knight and the young lady."
