In a dream, he returned to that cell.

It was pitch black and gloomy, with only a little light casting from the ceiling. Dressed in ragged clothes and shackled with his hands and feet, he sat in a corner of his cell.

Time seems to stand still. He counted the minutes in his mind, and in the evening, someone finally opened a small door in the corner and brought food in.

"Lord Starstream, please use it." The jailer's rather respectful voice came.

"Thank you. How's it going? He asked.

The jailer was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "My lord, the situation is very bad. More flares are erupting and darkness is eating away at our stars, according to data reported by the Academy of Sciences. I heard that the rich people have fled in their private spaceships...... But people like us are destined to die here. After a pause, he said, "Lord Xingliu, you ...... I guess I'll be taken to a safe place too, right? ”

Ying Hanshi didn't answer, just raised his gray face and looked at the little light above his head.

……

Then one day, he heard the jailer crying outside.

"What happened?" He asked.

The jailer opened the small door and replied with a weeping: "My lord, His Majesty the Emperor is dead!" The Dawn Empire has truly fallen......"

When it was cold, my heart was shocked.

His Majesty the Emperor, this name is like a needle on his back. He clearly remembered that when he was promoted to commander at the age of eighteen, he saw the emperor from a distance in the imperial capital chamber. He was not a few years older than Ying Hanshi, and with a handsome face that was slightly pale, he sat upright on the throne. The young emperor is known for his deep mind and indescribable joy and anger.

The first thing he said when he responded to the cold was, "Starstream, I've heard of you, you're good." At that time, there was a faint smile on the emperor's face.

It was he who gave Ying Han a lot of power, and he was promoted many times, allowing the stars to gallop freely in the starry sky. However, it was also him, when he reached the peak of his military career when he was cold, he pulled him down in one fell swoop and locked him in a deep prison.

The star stream is the star stream of the empire.

But it is also the star stream in the hands of the emperor.

On that day, when the arrest warrant was issued, the entire Battlestar was like an overturner. When the henchmen surrounded Ying Han, they entered the command room. Someone made a bold suggestion: "Commander, let's revolt!" You must not be allowed to suffer unjustified grievances! ”

But it was immediately retorted: "Uprising? How to revolt? Even though Lord Xingliu has superior combat effectiveness, His Majesty the Emperor has the first combat power in the continent. How to make enemies of it? ”

Yes, if there is anyone who the star stream can't defeat, it must be the royal family. The terrible royal genes are the cornerstone of the imperial civilization. It's been many years since anyone has seen the Imperial Family make a move, but legend has it that even the Light Blade of the Star Stream is completely unable to compete with the Emperor's battle.

And the key is that there is no rebellion when it is cold.

He stopped everyone from continuing, just took off the fleet commander's badge on his chest, and then said with his hands: "I'll go to the imperial capital with them." ”

……

"Your Majesty the Emperor, how could you die?" He asked the jailer.

The jailer sighed and replied in the darkness, "It is said that His Majesty the Emperor's escort fleet encountered the rebel commander Lin's fleet head-on when they escaped from the Dawn System. Originally, with His Majesty the Emperor's combat strength and the strength of the escort team, it was absolutely possible to annihilate the other party. However, just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, a new round of flares broke out in Yaori, and the royal guards were all wiped out. His Majesty the Emperor and Lin's command ships collided, and the two sides even conducted a landing operation...... In the end, someone saw that only Lin piloted the fighter plane and escaped. His Majesty the Emperor has fallen, and not even a single bone has been found......"

After listening, Ying Hanshi was silent for a long time. He never thought that the emperor, who was the supreme emperor in the hearts of the whole country, would die in an accident like this.

Later, I slowly came to my senses. The world is impermanent, fate makes people, and the universe is reincarnated, isn't that exactly the case? The dawn civilization, which has reached the pinnacle of technological and military strength, will be destroyed by the sinking of a star without any warning. Its mighty ruler has repeated this fate. It was like some kind of predestined. And perhaps in a few hundred million years, a new star will be born at the location of the Dawn Star. Humans will evolve from crawling to erect and then begin to build their civilization slowly and repeatedly.

……

Later, the jailer did not come again. Because disaster has befallen this planet, the entire prison has collapsed. Before he was buried, he finally swung his blade of light, split through the darkness, and leapt to the ground alone. When I looked up, I saw that the former prosperous imperial capital was full of devastation and withering.

He was like every homeless person, roaming the streets. Before I knew it, I walked to the space port dedicated to taking off and landing spacecraft. It was also silent, with only a few broken ships parked here and there.

He walked to the special port of the Phoenix Fleet and saw a lone spaceship parked there, which turned out to be the "Starlight" under his command. And in the command room, the lights are on.

He slowly stepped into the ship, across the bridge, and past the pilot's rest pod, and there was no one in him. It wasn't until I got to the door of the command room that I saw little John standing in front of the window, looking up at the starry sky with a lost face.

……

More fragments of memory, overlapping in the mind. And the twenty-two-year-old star stream seemed to stand in silence.

Until, a hazy and bright light, slowly expanding, enveloped him. In a trance, a girl sat beside him and whispered: "When it is cold, you wake up quickly, everything you want will be given to you." ”

The gloom dissipated instantly, and he wanted to open his eyes to see her clearly, but he couldn't. Only her face became hot and hot because of her words.

"Everything?" He muttered.

After a long silence, he replied softly, "Understood." Close your eyes and let me ......"

Let me possess all of you.

……

"Commander? Are you talking to me? Are you awake? Xiao Qiongyan's familiar voice gradually became clear in his ears.

Open your eyes when you are cold. Sunlight floods the room, and the view is bright. Xiao Qiongyan knelt on one knee beside the bed, his eyes were closed, his metal fingers were still holding the corner of the bedsheet, his body trembled slightly, and he looked very nervous.

“…… Little John, what are you doing? ”

Xiao Qiongyan secretly opened his eyes a slit, and his voice was pitiful: "Commander, this is also what I want to ask you: What do you want to do to Little John?" ”

Ying Han was silent for a moment, lowered his eyes and said lightly: "You stand farther away and talk to me again." On his face, the flush from his dream still hasn't faded.

Xiao Qiongyan immediately stood up with relief and anxiety, and took a few steps back.

"How's it going?" Asked when it was cold.

Xiao Qiongyan immediately reported everything to him about the past few days, and then said, "...... I've taken care of the chips and everything is going well. ”

Ying Hanshi nodded, raised his eyes and looked around: "What about Jinzhi?" ”

Xiao Qiongyan smiled and replied, "She has been with you for the past few days and has not left for 24 hours." Even sleep in your bed at night. However, we have to admit that she has been absent from work for too many days in a row, and if she continues like this, she will not be able to keep her job. So early this morning, she went to work in the library with Zhuang Chong. ”

A faint smile also appeared in Ying Han's eyes.

"It is said that this afternoon, she and Zhuang Chong will have to make a deep review to the curator." Xiao Qiongyan said with a sense of amusement. Ying Hanshi sat up when he heard this, feeling some pain from the wound on his body, and he frowned slightly. Xiao Qiongyan immediately bent down to help him: "God, although you are almost cured, you still have to be careful, you can't have too strenuous activities." ”

"Hmm." Ying Han signaled that he didn't need to be helped, got out of bed by himself, picked up a clean shirt from the bedside, picked up the car keys, and walked to the door.

Xiao Qiongyan had expected that he would go to find his sweetheart as soon as he woke up, so he was not surprised. The thing he made a bet with Zhuang Chong was: After waking up when it was cold, would he run to Xie Jinzhi like a puppy eager for the owner's praise...... Ahem, this metaphor is really offensive to the commander, but please forgive the two of them for not being able to think of a more appropriate word for the time being.

Now it seems that although Ying Hanshi was going to see her as soon as possible, his expression was calm and unhurried. Xiao Qiongyan followed him out of the door, thinking to himself: The commander is really still a very mature man with strong self-control.

He stood behind the Porsche, smiled and watched as he got into the car.

"Commander, watch out for the wounds......" he waved his hand. Suddenly, there was an unprecedentedly violent engine sound, the tires made a screeching sound against the ground, and the Porsche sped off with a "whoosh" and disappeared from view in the blink of an eye.

"Ahem......" Xiao Qiongyan choked on the exhaust gas and smoke and dust, and silently put down his hand.

He wants to retract his previous assessment.

The commander was clearly very eager, and rushed over to Jinzhi!

——

Xie Jinzhi held his chin, looked at Ran Yu beside him, and took a pen to list it on the paper.

"Cook for him?" Ran Yu asked. Xie Jinzhi shook his head: "Can I eat when I cook?" "Yes."

Ran Yu thought about it and wrote a few more: "Knitting sweaters? Shaving? Buying fruit? Really can't stack thousands of paper cranes? ”

Xie Jinzhi still shook his head. After falling unconscious in the cold, she wanted to do something for him. But here's the problem...... Xiao Qiongyan is too capable, she doesn't need her at all, and she can't intervene. She tapped the paper with her finger: "Last night, Xiao Qiongyan even picked a thousand thousand paper cranes, and made a wish to wake up early when it was cold." What else do you think I can do? ”

Ran Yu sneered: "I really want to see this robot sooner." ”

Now that he has established a relationship with Ying Hanshi, Xie Jinzhi still shared the secret with his best friend. Although Ran Yu has a detached personality, she is very strict when it comes to major matters, so Jinzhi is relieved of her. The two women talked about love, and between the words, Jinzhi obviously felt that she and the homeless man seemed to have something going on. But for this matter, Ran Yu refused to say more, only shook her head, her face was a little abnormally flushed, and said, "It's okay not to mention it." ”
