After the expulsion ceremony, Jiang Ziyue and Lota Staudert were ordered to leave within twenty-four hours. Easy to read on mobile phone: αр.(1)(6)After completing the 'handover' with the logistics department's 'door', Jiang Ziyue was ready to take a passenger ship back to the new Byzantine planet.

All the crew members of the cruiser "Siegfried" came to see him off at the civil aviation airport.

"Sir, please take care all the way." First Mate Captain Joseph Dietrich said goodbye with a solemn expression.

"Take care of yourselves, too." Jiang Ziyue said with emotion, "I am very grateful for your dedication, we have worked together very happily in the past attendance and battles. I will dwell with you forever. ”

"Major, I'm sorry." The navigator, Lieutenant Benjamin Alfrey, was guilty.

"No, Benjamin, it's none of your business." Jiang Ziyue said, "I can't blame you. ”

"Sir, will you ever come back?" Sgt. Jerry Morris asked.

"Maybe." Jiang Ziyue replied with a smile, "But I don't want our country to come to that day." ”

"Sir, if I go to New Byzantium, I'll see you." Tang Xingyun said.

"You're always welcome." Jiang Ziyue said enthusiastically, and then shook hands with his subordinates one by one to say goodbye.

After the old department left, Lota Stoddert also came over and said to Jiang Ziyue: "Ziyue, you have to take care." ”

"Take care, too." Jiang Ziyue replied softly.

Lota showed 'desire' and stopped. Jiang Ziyue's fate today can be said to be completely harmed by her. Loving someone but hurting that person makes her feel quite guilty. Today she has said "I'm sorry" to the other party more than 100 times, but now when it is time to part, she doesn't know what to say. There was silence for a moment before she asked, "Do you have any plans?" ”

Jiang Ziyue shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet." Anyway, let's go home first, I haven't been home for almost a year. ”

Lotta plucked up her courage and proposed, "Why don't you come with me to the planet Africa, where we can run a farm......"

"Don't mention us." Jiang Ziyue interrupted her, and then said solemnly: "Rota, I forgive you in this matter." But please don't think about me anymore, that will only mistake you. ”

Lota had no choice but to say stupidly: "Then we will see you again, be careful on the road." ”

"Be careful, too." Jiang Ziyue said and shook hands with the other party.

Then, Jiang Ziyue turned around and left, took the luggage handling robot, and strode towards the airport outside the terminal building.

Lota Stoddt watched her beloved disappear into the rush of travelers, and did not leave for a long time.

Jiang Ziyue boarded an aerospace plane, arrived at the dual-use orbital station "Lord of the Rings" in space, and transferred to the cabin of the special passenger ship "Photon Rose Young 'Girl'" between Iserren and New Byzantium.

The Photon Rose is a new, semi-cruise ship of the nature of the passenger ship, so it has a huge body and is nicknamed the "Big Rose" by the crew and passengers. Completely different from the wedge-shaped appearance of the battleships of the New Roman Empire, the "big rose" with a length of more than 10,000 meters does not look like a rose 'flower', but like a bunch of bicycle wheels strung from the axle. Ten annular cabins with a diameter of more than 5,000 meters are encased on the slender body of the spacecraft, and when they are in reaction propulsion, these annular cabins will rotate, so that the passengers in the cabin will feel the effect of gravity due to the centrifugal force.

However, the effect of this false gravity is not perfect, and it is even worse than the gravity effect of some dwarf planets. When the Photon Rose annular cabin is operating normally, it can generate a false gravity equivalent to one sevenths of a gravitational constant. Man is lighter on it than on the moon in the solar system. Moreover, such a gravitational effect does not accompany the entire voyage. Once the spacecraft reaches faster-than-light speed, the annular cabin will stop rotating and passengers will be asked to put on spacesuits and be secured to their respective cabins for safety and energy saving.

The huge orbital station "Lord of the Rings" stretched out eleven slender "arms" from the annular cabin and its sides to grab the main hull of the "Photon Rose", and it was through these "arms" that Jiang Ziyue and other passengers and supplies were sent onto the passenger ship by self-propelled poles or robots. People then turn into the "spoke" passage that connects to the annular cabin and enter the annular cabin.

Each circular cabin has 1,000 standard rooms of 18 square meters and nearly 4 meters high, as well as 10 communal dining rooms and five recreation halls. So the "Photon Rose" can carry 10,000 passengers in the standard state. It was not the largest passenger ship in the entire Neo-Roman Empire, but it was one of the few passenger liners considered "luxury".

For Jiang Ziyue, who shuttles through the sea of stars, it is quite easy to live on this kind of passenger ship with complete service facilities, highly intelligent management, and very humane residential design. He quickly arrived at his cabin and placed the belongings he was carrying. Yesterday's spirits and the gravity of the planet Iserlohn made the body, accustomed to weightlessness in space, feel quite uncomfortable and exhausted. Now back in space, he felt at ease, and fixed himself to the 'bed', ready to rest before the ship set sail.

As the cabin lights went out automatically, Jiang Ziyue slowly closed his eyes, and he seemed to be back on the dark interstellar planet "Yi". The beautiful Chen Weiyin also gradually appeared in front of him and smiled at him. When he wanted to reach out and 'touch' the other party, the other party quickly disappeared into the 'chaotic' space. His consciousness slowly became hazy, and he soon forgot everything and fell asleep.

A pleasant high-pitched music sounded, waking Jiang Ziyue up, and then he heard a beautiful prompt from the 'female' captain:

"Hello travelers. Welcome to the new Rome United 'Transport' Group Company, the Byzantine Planetary Passenger Line of Ishelon Planets, the 'Photon Rose' passenger ferry. I'm Captain Ho Siew Li, and my crew and I will provide you with a safe and high-quality service for the next 15 days. Now that the spacecraft is ready to set sail, it will start to simulate gravity in 20 minutes, and passengers are requested to fix their bodies nearby to avoid collisions. Especially if you have children, please take care of them. If you have any inconvenience or difficulties, please seek help from the service staff around you immediately. Thank you for your support and cooperation. ”

People who have become accustomed to traveling between stars immediately use their seat belts or safety buckles to secure their bodies to bulkheads, seats, 'beds' and even toilets when they hear the instructions. Flight attendants are also in full swing, wearing tight space suits, showing off their wonderful body curves and helping young passengers fix their bodies. Some children are both frightened and curious in weightlessness, as if they are drowning in water, screaming excitedly in the air, while constantly rolling and swimming, even adults and flight attendants can't stop it for a while, and even have to dispatch the air crew to fix them honestly on the chairs.

The Lord of the Rings connected the eleven long arms of the Photon Rose more than 3,000 meters, and the ends detached one after another and shrank back. The Photon Rose also quickly activated the attitude controllers scattered throughout the hull and cautiously began to fly sideways, leaving the Lord of the Rings orbital station.

Not far from the Lord of the Rings, the ten "wheels" of the "Photon Rose" began to spin, and the tail end of its "axle" also erupted with dazzling light, propelling the ship to accelerate forward. The yellow-colored planet Iserlon is also becoming less and less frequent, the star "Huiziro Bo" Chitley is getting farther and farther away, and the other, more distant star "Ishktien", is even smaller and less like a dark star.

As the simulated gravity of the rotating cabin reached its normal value, the captain He Xiuli also announced that the passengers would be lifted from the fixed requirements, and the cabin could move freely.

Jiang Ziyue didn't feel sleepy anymore, so he got up. He has not yet adapted to the simulated gravity environment of a passenger ship, and is accustomed to 'sexually' jumping up like on a warship, ready to fly his body into the air. Unexpectedly, the body flew up, but soon it quickly fell to the floor. Fortunately, the effect of gravity on this fake is not strong, and he is agile and quickly adjusts his posture, so that he will not fall to the floor and stand firmly on the floor. However, even if you fall, you will not be injured, and all parts of the cabin are laid with composite materials with high elasticity, which can effectively absorb the kinetic energy generated by the collision and prevent people from being injured or injured.

Jiang Ziyue stepped up lightly and walked towards the 'door'. He was not very accustomed to the gravity of this simulation, but it was much more comfortable than the gravity environment on the planet Iserlon, so he walked out of the 'door' with pleasure, ready to take a walk in this passenger ship and adjust his low mood.

As soon as she walked out of the room, Jiang Ziyue met a 'female' soldier wearing a boat-shaped hat.

The 'female' soldier saw that he did not salute, but exclaimed in awe: "Hello, sir. ”

Jiang Ziyue didn't know the other party, but she was immediately attracted by her greeting and looked at it.

The 'female' soldier, who also wore the private's small rifle epaulettes, had beautiful blonde hair that 'shot' dazzlingly in the light of the cabin passage. She was also staring at Jiang Ziyue with a pair of glowing blue 'colored' eyes. It's just that the elegant, fair-skinned face shows a tired look. But fatigue did not affect her appearance at this time, but made the muscles and flesh on her face relax, showing a beautiful appearance that was different from ordinary 'women'.

Jiang Ziyue smiled at her, a little ashamed, and said, "You don't have to call me sir." I've been expelled from the army. ”

The 'female' soldier's face immediately flashed with a 'mysterious' smile and asked, "Then how do I call you good?" Do you call you Mr. Jiang? ”

"I'm not used to being called sir. You can call me by my name, Jiang Ziyue, or Ziyue. If you feel that Ziyue's pronunciation is too awkward, it is better to call Werther. Jiang Ziyue kept smiling and said to the other party.

"Okay. Then I'll call you Werther, is this your English name? The 'female' soldier also kept smiling.

"Yes. Also, Private Pontic, please don't use honorifics, I'm not an officer anymore. Jiang Ziyue emphasized, "Although I am definitely older than you, I don't think I'm old enough to use 'you'." ”

Hearing the other party call her surname, the 'female' soldier was a little surprised and asked, "How do you know my name?" ”

"It seems that you are not used to being a soldier. Don't all soldiers put their names on their chests? Jiang Ziyue said and swept the other party's right 'chest' with his eyes. On the right 'chest' of the other party's suit jacket is a Chinese and English name: Dana Pontik, Donna

"I forgot about it." Dana let out an embarrassed laugh as she spoke.

The other party's beautiful laughter made Jiang Ziyue feel very comfortable. He showed enthusiasm and asked, "Do you want to go back to the New Byzantine planet?" ”
