Chapter 462: Pale Dreams

"Oh? ――What do you mean by that? ”

I didn't expect Long Yun to ask like this at all, and Wang Weiguo's tone was very surprised.

"Here's what I think. You just mentioned earlier that aviation competition is an important guarantee of a country's war potential; In other words, it is only when a large-scale war breaks out that we, the reservists, will be useful. But as far as I can see, the situation in the world is still very calm, and there is no way for the big powers to fight each other, can it? ”

"Oh......"

Although he had made all the preparations in advance and had done enough work when he was close to the target, Wang Weiguo still showed a rare hint of surprise when he heard Long Yun's rhetorical question.

He really didn't expect that Long Yun, who should have made a decisive choice and had a strong sense of competitiveness and responsibility, would give a very powerful rhetorical question as an answer in the face of his sudden attack question.

Yes, when we talked just now, I deliberately mentioned some articles on the registration of aviation sports qualifications, and I originally wanted to use these to lead the topic and let him first have a little subconscious of "obeying the call of the country"; But I didn't expect that this young man's thinking autonomy was quite strong, and he would not be hinted and influenced by others at all. Not to mention, he had to admit that Long Yun's words were very reasonable-the current world was still peaceful, and it was far from the time for a big war, so the country naturally had no reason or need to recruit these reservists.

There is no gain from asking directly questions, and Wang Weiguo's response is quite fast:

"Oh...... That's just as well. Hehe! ”

Facing the talented player in front of him, he intuitively felt that this task was not so easy, and Wang Weiguo chatted with the two for a while. Then he got up and said goodbye to them.

Enter the elevator through the atrium of the ring corridor. Once again, he habitually pulled out his cigarette case and pulled out a cigarette. Gently rub it back and forth on your hands. Realizing that Long Yun, the first candidate, was neither short of money nor greedy for money, but also did not seem to be a typical military character who was simple-minded and accustomed to obeying orders, Wang Weiguo's eyes became a little bright; Now his thoughts are obvious, the genius who can fly a fighter jet to that kind of Cheng dΓΉ will be a guy with a tendon in his head and will only obey orders?

That's weird!

The data is dead, but the man is alive; After a few days of closer observation, the days spent on the Ruby were indeed not in vain. I have a more comprehensive and three-dimensional understanding of the target person. Wang Weiguo once again weighed the pros and cons, this person is indeed the best candidate for this mission, and his judgment is not wrong.

Not to mention, if it's based on that reason......

This candidate is none other than him.

Wang Weiguo, who was in the elevator, continued his analysis and thinking.

And in the sunny viewing corridor, watching Wang Weiguo's figure disappear at the corner of the corridor from the seat, Long Yun was silent and squinted his eyes and fell into thought, until Shangguan Ling next to him raised his hand and patted him lightly.

"Oh-what?"

"What are you thinking, Long Yun? It's almost time to go to lunch. ”

Tilted his head to look at the table where Su Xue was sitting in the distance. Seeing that the little girl was still playing chess with her female companion with great interest, I knew it was still early when I looked at the wristband. Shangguan Ling casually put his arm on the back of the chair and chatted briefly with Long Yun.

After experiencing the conversation just now, the two quickly mentioned Wang Weiguo between their words:

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Long Yun, you say, what does that Mr. Wang do? ”

"Mr. Wang? Researchers from the Beihang Research Institute; I don't know exactly what kind of research I'm engaged in. ”

"Really?"

Thinking back to the brief conversation before, Shangguan Ling blinked his watery apricot eyes with a vigilant expression, "Then why did he test you and ask if you would respond to the 'call of the country'?" - Don't look at me like that, it's obvious, can't you really see it? From the beginning, I thought that the man was a little bit uneasy, as if he was approaching you with some purpose. It's not really going to war, is it? ”

While listening to Shangguan Ling's speech, he nodded slightly unconsciously, Long Yun knew that this eldest lady's insight and thinking ability were very good, otherwise he would not have just sat down and forced himself into their conversation. But to say that conscription goes to war......

"No, I don't think so."

After pondering for a moment, Long Yun slowly gave his own answer.

……

After a morning of leisure time, he continued to accompany the two girls on the huge cruise ship in the afternoon, and Long Yun could only use his tablet to watch the live broadcast of PRSFT's second match.

The fierce confrontation that broke out between the Soviet Russia and the American team, the final result of the game, the Soviet Russian "Albatross" combination using the MiG-44 tried their best to defeat the "North Star" driving the F-22 with a score of 2:1, and the Americans who lost both battles have lost the qualification for the championship, and the next final match has become the peak duel between "May" and "Albatross".

Seeing that the champion was already in sight, he used his wristband to chat with Lin Feng, who was watching the game at the scene and was elated, Long Yun told him not to get too excited, and to seize the time tomorrow to practice more tactical cooperation with himself, and then put the matter of the game aside for the time being and devote himself to a full-time leisure vacation.

After nearly ten days of sailing, the journey is coming to an end, so just relax!

Probably the three of them all had the same idea, and for the rest of the day, two girls who were full of interest pulled Long Yun through the decks of the cruise ship, mixed with the tourists in twos and threes, and turned around the facilities and areas on the ship that had not yet set foot or had not yet been enjoyed. From the billiards room where he played snooker to the diving training cabin that simulated weightlessness, he felt more tired than playing games after running errands repeatedly, but it was really fun to see them, and it didn't matter if he was tired.

However, in the process of companionship, Long Yun, who was nervous, also began to notice that Su Xue, who had been close to him before, had some subtle changes in his attitude towards himself. He could clearly feel that although the little girl was calm and normal on the outside, she had hardly communicated with him, or rather, she had a little sense of alienation from him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

For this subtle change in the situation, Long Yun, who did not have the assistance of conscious snooping, was completely unknown, so after wondering for a while, he simply didn't think about it for the time being.

If you want to guess the girl's heart, he is indeed completely out of business.

In this way, after a busy and tiring day, he returned to the cabin to wash and rest, and Long Yun looked at his watch It was already eleven o'clock in the evening; Falling asleep with tiredness, in the quiet night of the ocean, Long Yun unexpectedly entered an inexplicable dream again.

The scene in the dream was extremely bleak at first.

With the faint sound of bubbling undercurrents, in the vast dim vision, there is a desolate desert-like gray scene, with a slight distorted light and uncertain ripples.

As far as the eye can see, the light seems to be cast from a very high ethereal place, shining on the cold background of the line of sight; Feel the slight shaking of the perspective, as the sand and dust in the line of sight rise, the light gradually becomes less scarce, while the desert in front of you gradually sinks and disappears, leaving only what seems to be a pale, cold scene.

It was a hollow paleness, as if it were a qiΔ“, and it all disappeared as the light approached.

……

Unconsciously, he felt an extremely slight shaking of his body, and Long Yun, who woke up from a long dream, was still a little confused, and it took him a long time to distinguish between dream and reality, and he remembered that he was on the "Ruby" cruise ship to the United States.

I grabbed the wristband next to the bed and looked at it, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

Are you sleeping lazy again?

Is it because I was too tired yesterday and had a weird dream all night?

After getting up and getting dressed and walking into the living room, Long Yun took a look and knew that Su Xue and Shangguan Ling were not in the house; This kind of situation is quite rare, he looked at the message of the wristband, and realized that the two girls saw that he was very rarely bedridden, so they went out to play together.

After a simple wash, he walked out of the door, Long Yun first went to the cafeteria on the ship to have breakfast, and then called Su Xue, the bell rang several times in the wristband but no one answered. However, this naturally did not make it difficult for Long Yun, and after driving the consciousness snooping technique to be fully opened and most of the irrelevant stream of consciousness was filtered, he gradually locked on to Su Xue's location, and found that she and Shangguan Ling were now located diagonally above him, and should be in the open-air corridor close to the top of the cruise ship.

Passing through the atrium along a wide floor-paved corridor, Long Yun stepped into an elevator that ran upwards.

In the narrow elevator, a few tourists who don't know whether they are from South Korea or Japan, some men and women, are whispering in the elevator; He didn't understand the bird-like words, and he didn't bother to snoop them, so he walked out with them when he reached the floor.

The open-air promenade located at the front of the Ruby offers a panoramic view of the sparkling ocean, and the view is naturally extremely wide.

Pacing leisurely in the sea-breezy viewing corridor in the warm morning sunshine, Long Yun soon saw Su Xue and Shangguan Ling sitting at the table on the side of the sea, the two of them were sitting facing each other playing tarot cards, chatting and enjoying the sea view; The glass in front of them was almost at the bottom, and it looked like they had been sitting here for quite some time. In fact, he didn't need to look at their cups, just look at the tourists who wandered around for no reason, and the admiring glances of the men nearby, and he knew how long these two had been here.

Running here early in the morning for fun, the behavior of these two people seems to be a bit abnormal?

"Good morning, Long Yun!"

As Long Yun approached while trying to walk, Shangguan Ling, who was still sitting facing the stern of the boat, saw him first, and she raised her hand happily to greet him. With the action of the eldest lady to greet her, she suddenly became the focus of attention of the surrounding tourists, but Long Yun strolled over as if he was unconscious, pulled out the chair next to Su Xue and sat down.
