October 5, 2081, Marseille Space Fortress.

Marseille Space Fortress is a military fortress established by the Nine Star Republic in the public star field outside the solar system, with a huge meteorite as the main body, the hexahedral structure of the Marseille Space Fortress is equivalent to the sum of three billion-ton Titan aircraft carriers, and including a main fleet and a number of transport fleets, the Marseille Space Fortress has a total of nearly 200,000 people stationed here.

Because the public star field where the Marseille Space Fortress is located guards the closest black hole to the solar system, and the black hole is often accompanied by an invisible white hole in the nearby area, for ships that rely on the 'wormhole' technology to sail over ultra-long distances, the Marseille Fortress guarding this star field is equivalent to the customs of the Nine-Star Republic, and in the event of an invasion by other countries, the Marseille Space Fortress is the first line of defense to prevent enemy troops from entering the territory of the Nine-Star Republic.

During the July War that broke out in July 2080, the Marseille Space Fortress was overrun by the invading Federation fleet due to a lack of garrison forces. However, in May '81, the Republic's complete victory, the Republic's Space Fleet once again took over the Marseille Space Fortress and carried out a complete renovation and reinforcement of the heavily damaged Marseille Space Fortress to strengthen the defense of the Marseille Space Fortress in the event of a second war that could occur at any time.

At the end of his month-long vacation, Robin was assigned to the Marseille Space Fortress along with the TR-735. Due to the outstanding performance of the TR-735 ship in the July war, the captain of the TR-735 ship Cecilia was promoted to captain, and the TR-735 ship was exceptionally promoted to the flagship of a reading transport formation under the 7th Integrated Transport Fleet, and Robin became the commander-in-chief of the Marine Corps of the transport formation, responsible for the combat missions of the Marine Corps on the seven transport ships under his command.

At the moment, the spaceport of Marseille Space Fortress VI.

Robin and Cecilia, who have become commanders of a reading fleet, work together to navigate the bustling departure platform of Spaceport Six. Since they have been here for four months, many people know this heroic couple who are famous in the entire Seventh Fleet, and on the way to the docking platform, there are people who greet the two of them from time to time, but there are also many male and female rivals who look at Robin and Cecilia with hostile eyes.

"Six girls are glaring at me today! ~" Holding Robin's arm with a smile, Cecilia quietly pinched the soft flesh on Robin's waist.

"Sizzle! ~" Robin grinned in pain, and couldn't help but suppress his throat and roared: "The man who stares at me is three times this number, why are you pinching me!" ”

"Enjoying the adoring gaze is a God-given privilege for a woman, and the more people stare at you, the luckier you are." After speaking, Cecilia lifted her toes, kissed Robin lightly on the lips, and asked affectionately, "Don't you like it?" ”

“……”

Looking at Cecilia in front of her, Robin really didn't know when this girl began to become so sharp-toothed, so she could only smile helplessly: "It seems that a group of hot-brained guys will come to me to duel this time." ”

"You're always the one who wins anyway." Cecilia snuggled up to Robin's shoulder like a coquettish, and secretly stuck out her tongue defiantly at the girls standing in the crowd.

Breaking away from the crowd, Robin and Cecilia arrived at the platform where the TR-735 was moored, where a group of crew members, led by Borg, were already waiting.

For some reason, Cecilia seems to have always been afraid of Borg, and she becomes very restrained every time Borg's presence is present, so the people on the ship jokingly call Borgg Robin's father-in-law, and Borg doesn't seem to have any intention of refuting it, but looks more and more like Cecilia's father.

At this moment, seeing that Robin and Cecilia were late, Borg immediately took out the elder's style as before, cleared his throat and asked, "Cecilia, why are you late again." ”

"Because ......," Cecilia stole at Robin with a blushing cheek.

"Because she had to touch up her makeup, she delayed for a while." Robin replied casually.

"Touch-up?" When Borg heard this, he immediately understood, and Cecilia was even more ashamed to stomp on Robin's instep.

"You guys talk slowly, I'll go over there to find Zhuo Luo." Irresponsibly throwing Cecilia to Borg for a lesson, Robin walked towards Zolo, who was sitting alone in the corner, with a smug face.

After following Robin out of the paratrooper unit to join the Air Marines, Zolo, who became a member of the TR-735 Marine Corps, was also assigned to the Marseille Space Fortress. However, even after all this time, Zhuo Luo still did not adapt to the undown-to-earth space life, especially every time he sailed with the ship, he had to at least stay alone in the corner and play with the tiger head coin for a few hours before he could set foot on the spaceship. Therefore, Zhuo Luo is always the first to come to the platform, but the last to board the ship.

Many people, including Cecilia, are puzzled by Zoro's habit and attribute it to one of Zoro's many bad things, but only Robin knows that Zoro actually has a mental illness, he is afraid to take any enclosed transportation, because it makes him feel that his life is out of his control, which makes him extremely insecure, and playing with coins is a way for him to decompress himself. However, considering Zhuo Luo's face, Robin never revealed this secret to the others.

"Hey, it's been so long and you haven't gotten used to it?" Striding over to Zoro's side, Robin asked after finding a seat next to Zoro.

"It's better, but I'm still a little nervous." Zhuo Luo replied indifferently as he let the coins fly between his fingers.

Robin knew that Zoro had experienced a serious traffic accident on Venus a long time ago and lost his parents as a result, which left this psychological shadow that could not be healed. Zolo is a man who was born on land, but because of himself, he forced himself to overcome his fear and go to the sky, so every time he saw Zolo staying alone to play with coins before boarding the ship, Robin felt that he owed Zolo.

As if knowing Robin's inner thoughts, Zhuo Luo put away the coin, took a deep breath and said, "Don't have that thought, as long as I stay by your side for a day, I owe you." ”

"Ahem...... Don't say it so loudly next time. Robin looked around with a red face and whispered, "Cecilia asked me a few days ago if I was the same with you...... If you say it so loudly now, others will misunderstand, and there are some things that we can only know. ”

"What's so unsightly?" Suddenly, Lee jumped out from behind the two and got stuck between them.

"If you don't want to die, shut up! ~" Zhuo Luo glared at Li murderously, stood up and walked away coolly.

"This guy still has such a bad temper, and after staying in the fortress for so long, he doesn't seem to have any other hobbies other than sending people to the hospital." Lee turned his head to look at Robin and teased, "By the way, you seem to have this hobby too." Let me do the math on how many people have been beaten up and put in the hospital. I remember yesterday there were three, the day before yesterday there were two, and last week it seemed like there were seven ......"

"Alright, alright." Robin interrupted Li angrily and took off his glasses on the bridge of his nose: "Hey, you don't have to dress up exactly like Colin, you're going to give me nightmares." ”

Lee has been a different person since he returned from Wald, Mars. Not only did he wear Colin's multi-view holographic scanning glasses on the bridge of his nose all day, but he also wore long hair like Colin and a pigtail on the back of his head. In the past, he was very good at messing with flowers and grass, as long as he stayed in one place for a few days, his girlfriend was enough to make a table of mahjong. And now, he is no longer seen in the living quarters where the female soldiers are full of soldiers, and he is like Colin's ghost clinging to Colin's former girlfriend Martha all day long, like that, it is completely like he thinks of himself as a substitute for Colin.

"Hey, give it back to me. I think it's pretty handsome to dress up like this, and the glasses are pretty easy to use, although I'm still not used to it, but as a sniper, this holographic mode with no dead spots is just for me. Lee snatched the glasses that Robin had snatched away and put them on carefully.

Seeing that Lee was so stubborn, Robin could only sigh helplessly: "What about Martha?" ”

"She's a good girl, I'll take good care of her."

At this moment, Lee suddenly saw Martha coming with her bag on her back, and immediately jumped up, stumbled and ran to Martha, snatched Martha's bag, and boarded the TR-735 ship side by side with her.

"Hey......"

Knowing that Lee's knot might not be untied for a long time, Robin could only sigh and get up to board the ship. At this time, he suddenly found a familiar figure carrying a large and small toolbox, looking through the electronic guide map, and walking towards the launch platform where the TR-735 ship was moored.

"Haha...... Old Jack! ～”

Robin recognized that this old man was actually a bad old man who taught him mechanical maintenance at Wald's Third Military Academy, and immediately stepped forward in surprise, hugged the stunned and inexplicable old Jack and shouted: "Old guy, you don't stay in Wald to retire, why did you come here?" ”

"Robin?" Old Jack looked at Robin carefully for a while, and suddenly shouted in surprise: "You're actually Robin, fuck you kid is actually a captain, I thought you would have hung up a long time ago." ”

"Dead old man, you can't say anything else." Robin lifted the many toolboxes that Old Jack was carrying in his hand: "Why are you here?" ”

"I'm tired of being in that rotten school after you're gone, so I want to spend the last days of my life doing a great job. By the way, that fucking quartile that replaced you is shit, when I left, the Third Military Academy lost three games in a row in the intercollegiate exchange competition, damn, if you were here, we would definitely have won three in a row. ”

"That's it! ~I'm a star player at the 3rd Military Academy. Talking about his good football, Robin rubbed his nose proudly and suddenly asked, "Old Jack, where are you assigned?" ”

"Oh. It seems to be ......" Old Jack took out the requisition order, looked at it carefully, and said: "It seems to be a transport ship numbered TR-735, which is the foreman of the mechanical squad." By the way, do you know where the boarding gate of this ship is? It looks like we're about to go. ”

"TR-735?"

Robin snatched the requisition order from Old Jack's hand, and when he saw that it did say TR-735 on it, he couldn't help laughing and hooked Old Jack's shoulder.

"Welcome to join, this is my boat and my wife, hahaha......"
