At the gendarmerie management station near the Yayuan Restaurant, the head of the gendarmes who had arrested Wang Ping'an and his party slowly paced around the three of them.

"It's okay, suddenly I won't get into trouble, and I'll change to righteousness?" The leader said in a weird way.

Wang Ping'an said with a smile: "Shibei should be impressed for three days, people will change, now I am reborn, I even took a silver star, and it will be sent to me tomorrow." ”

"Computer, is there such a thing?"

Computer: "Lieutenant Wang's comprehensive diagnosis report has not been updated, and it is impossible to confirm his so-called rebirth. ”

"I'm asking about the Silver Star, did he get the Silver Star? You wooden head. ”

Wang Ping'an: "People are silicon heads. ”

"Shut up!"

That's when the computer spoke: "Confirm." Lieutenant Wang's Silver Star has been approved and should be awarded tomorrow. Also approved was the Silver Star of the Order of Second Lieutenant Angrei de Lyon. ”

The head of the gendarmerie looked at it with a strange expression: "Yo, there is really such a thing, did you take the wrong medicine?" ”

Wang Ping'an said with a smile: "That's the case, my psychological diagnosis is red, so the supercomputer prescribed me a prescription, look, this is my antidote!" ”

Wang Ping'an made a "please look here" gesture with both hands and pointed at Angli.

The gendarme looked at Angli again: "I don't believe it, if a woman could change you, you should have changed a long time ago." ”

"Computers use big data to match, and there is a lot of psychological research behind it, and you should believe in science."

Angli opened her mouth to speak, but Lu Yingying grabbed the white and said, "This doesn't mean that they have become a couple!" There is no such thing! Computers just let them partner with each other and didn't make them a couple! ”

The gendarme looked at Lu Yingying: "You haven't been cheated enough by him, what kind of charm does this guy have, doesn't he just play the guitar?" ”

This is also one of the mainstream views of Wang Ping'an in the army, some men can feel the idealistic atmosphere of Wang Ping'an, others do not feel it at all, the former is generally concentrated in astronauts, the latter is widely distributed in the military police, personnel organs and other departments.

This gendarmerie captain is obviously the kind of person who completely treats Wang Ping'an as a rotten person.

Lu Yingying was immediately unconvinced and wanted to refute, but her stomach screamed with anger.

She immediately blushed: "This...... After all, it's time for dinner! You can't blame me for that! ”

Gendarme: "Okay, this time you are indeed acting bravely, your dictation has been recorded, just sign an electronic signature." ”

After saying that, a gendarmerie sergeant stepped forward with a hair collection machine, and now everyone's DNA is a signature, and a signature is required to collect a hair.

Of course, beards are also allowed, but soldiers must shave according to the regulations, otherwise they will be caught and deducted points.

Wang Ping'an and his entourage left their hair, and the military police captain said, "Okay, see you later." ”

Out of the gendarmerie management station, Wang Ping'an looked at the time on his mobile phone and said, "It's too late to go back to that restaurant to eat Cantonese food, and I won't be able to catch the concert." Let's eat Shaxian on the side of the road. ”

Lu Yingying immediately frowned: "Shaxian...... Eating too much food in Shaxian is not good for your throat. ”

"You can eat light. What do you think, Angli? ”

Angli spread her hands: "For me, I have never eaten anything, I was drinking Marseille fish soup and eating Provencal stew a few days ago." ”

"Okay, let's go through it then." Wang Ping'an said, pushing Angli's back with one hand and Lu Yingying with the other, and went to the Shaxian snack bar with a sign of "A Hymn to Loyalty" on the side of the road.

They had just taken two steps when a voice stopped the three of them.

"Wang Ping'an, there are ...... Uh, what's the name of the two girls? ”

Wang Ping'an turned around and found that it was Dr. Chen who he had saved, he didn't speak, and Angri saluted first: "I am Second Lieutenant Angli de Lyon, comrade doctor." ”

"Lu Yingying, a literary and artistic soldier of the cultural team." Lu Yingying glanced at Angli and added, "Comrade doctor." ”

"Hello, I'm Major Chen Yuanyuan from the Mental Medical Department, but I don't wear a military uniform, so I don't salute. You've done me a great favor and ended a hopeless relationship, and I should treat you to a meal. ”

Lu Yingying immediately became alert and arched her back and raised her tail at the cat that felt threatened.

Angli was very generous: "Of course you can, I think it's good to go to Shaxian County." ”

Dr. Chen was stunned: "Go...... Shaxian? Uh......"

Wang Ping'an served as a commentator next to him: "Angli, if you generally want to treat you to eat high-end things in order to thank others, please make people suspect that you are insulting others in Shaxian County, saying 'Your kindness is worth a meal in Shaxian'." ”

Angli: "Huh? But when I saw that the sign of the store said 'A Hymn to Loyalty,' it felt like it was quite high-end. ”

"This is the propaganda slogan that has been handed down from ancient times in Shaxian County, and it is the same as the 'I like it' of the Golden Arches."

Angel said "oh" and then said to Dr. Chan, "But we are going to see a concert tonight, and Scourge is looking forward to this very much, so it should not be possible tonight." ”

Lu Yingying: "Yes, yes, not tonight!" ”

Dr. Chen: "Well, let's go to Shaxian for a meal together, and I'll find time to thank you tomorrow." I heard you're going to receive the Silver Star tomorrow? Let's celebrate it. ”

Lu Yingying had a bitter face. Seeing this, Dr. Chen immediately said, "I'm inviting the three of you, and you can come with me." ”

Lu Yingying's expression immediately relaxed a lot: "That's ...... Then there is no way......"

She looked at Wang Ping'an.

Wang Ping'an: "Then it's better to be respectful, let's go to Shaxian County tonight." ”

**

After eating in Shaxian, Wang Ping'an and his entourage separated from Dr. Chen and rushed to the soldier's home by car.

On the way, Lu Yingying thought in pieces: "That Doctor Chen, he must have taken a fancy to the scourge, the old cow eats tender grass, it's disgusting." ”

Wang Ping'an: "Don't be like this, I didn't attract bees and butterflies like this." ”

Angli: "Studies have shown that if the quality of the girls around a boy is very high, it will affect the impression that other girls have of the boy. ”

Wang Ping'an: "This can't be the research result you just made up, right?" ”

Lu Yingying immediately said: "Hmph, what do you say about my sister!" Don't think they're all like you. ”

"But she's a supercomputer match for me, so maybe we have something in common in these areas."

Angli: "Do you want me to find the paper on the lancet for you?" ”

"Uh, no, still no. I believe you, after all, you're my partner! Wang Ping'an patted his chest, "You must have unwavering trust in your partner." ”

Angli smiled, but Lu Yingying decided to stick to the dismantling to the end: "Then how can you count yourself full of lies?" I don't believe you're not fooling Angri at all! ”

Wang Ping'an: "I will definitely not lie about the important content, and the other content will act according to the opportunity." ”

Lu Yingying: "You actually directly admit that you have flexible standards. Forget it, don't talk about this, today I'm the first person to see a psychological breakdown, you won't become like this, right? ”

"Maybe it will," Wang Ping'an sneered, "so don't get too close to me, maybe one day I'll shout 'That's obviously a rose' and choke your neck!" ”

Lu Yingying snorted, and then asked curiously: "Is it really so scary to run a long voyage?" ”

"Well, I'm sluggish." Wang Ping'an looked at the road ahead, and at this time, the holographic projection of the space station had switched to night mode, and the colorful neon lights outside looked like a metropolis on the ground.

He looked at the sight and continued: "On the long-range spacecraft, I spent most of my time watching movies and novels from the past, as well as playing games. I didn't particularly feel alone. But people are different, and some people will gradually become irritable even if they walk around the spaceship every day. ”

"Everyone is different, among the civilian enterprises and mercenaries, there are also people who have flown in space for twenty years and have not returned to the ground but have no psychological problems. ”

Wang Ping'an seemed to suddenly recall something: "By the way, on the return road to Mars for the first time, there was a wrong ship. ”

"The wrong ship?" Lu Yingying asked curiously, "What the hell?" ”

Wang Ping'an: "Different spacecraft have different propulsion power, so the orbits are also very different, even if it is the same from the Sun and Earth L2 to Mars, launched from the same window, the cargo ships of the Space Force and the civilian cargo ships may also take different orbits and arrive at different times."

"In addition, civilian spacecraft do not have the same fixed launch window as we do, after all, they are not directly managed by the Space Traffic Control Commission, they do not need the Air Traffic Control Commission to approve the voyage plan, and they will sometimes launch from the Earth's low Earth orbit to the orbit around Phobos.

So although this is relatively rare, in the vast space between Earth and Mars, it is possible that two ships will sail in parallel for a short time.

"Of course, sometimes the intersection of the tracks is just a moment, but we deliberately match the relative speed of both sides and do some ceremonial activities. For example, when you are on the wrong boat, throw some small gifts at each other. Rarely, the relative velocity of the two ships is almost zero, at which point docking takes place.

"On my first way back from Mars, we docked a very old spacecraft. The spacecraft actually uses lithium as propellant, and the jet that erupts from the back of the ship's butt can be seen with a beamsplitter, and there are two very obvious lines in the red zone......"

Lu Yingying: "Wait a minute, I'm starting to understand it!" Is lithium a propellant or not? ”

Wang Ping'an put it succinctly: "Lithium is a metal, the lightest metal in the periodic table. The ship passed the lithium vapor through the reactor's core, accelerated sufficiently, and ejected out.

"After seeing that ship, Xiao Fang was excited, because she thought this thing was too romantic, and our tritium reflex engine was not romantic at all."

Lu Yingying: "Who is Xiao Fang?" ”

"If you want to chase me, you don't know who Xiao Fang is?" Wang Ping'an looked shocked.

Lu Yingying: "You didn't tell me!" ”

"This is something you should investigate, otherwise how can you see your sincerity?"

"Oh, this one needs to be investigated, okay, I'll look it up. You go on. ”

Seeing Lu Yingying's innocent appearance, Angri couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Fang was very excited, she had always found the old machines to have a shocking beauty, so when the computer calculated that we could be parallel to this ship for a short time, she immediately decided to issue a docking request for this ship.

"At first, they didn't agree, but when I said, 'We have the latest coffee and cigarettes,' they agreed.

"The docking went so smoothly that when we got to the other boat, we immediately understood why they couldn't resist coffee and cigarettes. There was a very strong sour smell in the cabin of that ship, and it was obvious that the spacecraft had not docked with a space station with complete air freshening facilities for a long time.

"And the people on board also have a very big smell, which is the smell of people who have lived on space stations and spaceships that have been starved of supplies for a long time. The Space Force is now living a better life and will ensure that everyone can take a bath, and that is because the spacecraft used has changed.

"When I used the old spacecraft, because there were not so many payloads to ensure a shower, the soldiers of the Space Force also smelled of sweat. And these people have been living on old and dilapidated spaceships.

"In addition, there are quite a lot of people on that ship, a spacecraft of tens of thousands of tons can be driven by two people, and computer-controlled robots and drones will handle most of the problems. But if you don't have that much money to buy an automated system, you will bring more people.

"Anyway, the automated system can't completely replace manpower, just use all manpower - it's a spaceship configured with this idea."

Angri immediately questioned: "This is unreasonable, it costs more money to raise a person in space than to raise an automaton." ”

Wang Ping'an: "That is under the condition of guaranteeing human rights. As long as human rights are ignored, people can still be cheap. In addition, many foreign space development companies will use financial tools to turn people into debtors, so that they can be called slaves, and they don't need to give money at all, just a piece of bread.

"Anyway, we're on a ship that has been in space for five years. Everyone's muscles were atrophied and their skin was wrinkled. Everyone was a little nervous, and I saw with my own eyes how their repairman repaired the main reactor: he actually put a shrine next to it, do you understand!

"And the captain of that ship, the commander, has been in space for twenty years, and he looks like a snowman in the Himalayas.

Xiao Fang was very curious, so he asked the captain if he had any abnormalities. The captain laughed, patted his chest and said, "The so-called souls bound by gravity are simply a lie made up by the Space Force to ensure the control of the Earth over the space colonies. ’

Sounds convincing, doesn't it? Then the bell rang, and Xiao Fang and I were both startled, and we didn't know what was going on. Xiao Fang also took a weightless fighting pose.

"Then the captain and the crew began to pray to the 'dark darkness that dominates all,' in full view of us, and the prayers were all patchwork, and I could only hear the hairy sentences from the book of Revelation, followed by the hairy sentences from Pulp Fiction......"

Lu Yingying: "What's the same thing?" Revelation? Pulp fiction? ”

Angli: "I only knew that the book of Revelation was part of the Bible, but I didn't read it, and my dad wouldn't let me read it, saying that the Space Force was atheist and didn't accept Christians. ”

Wang Ping'an: "Anyway, it's very messy." Xiao Fang and I were so frightened by the sight that we left our coffee and cigarettes behind and fled back to our spaceship. After the docking was lifted, we gave the computer an order to disinfect the whole ship, and at the same time, the engine was sprayed with all its might, running out of an acceleration of one gag, consuming a lot of redundant water.

"We left the ship behind.

"Since seeing the ship, Xiao Fang and I have never doubted the need to go to the surface on regular vacations.

"As a species born on the ground, human beings can be frightened even at night on Earth, and we can only find some solace at night by relying on light sources such as torches.

"We are used to the diffuse reflection of the atmosphere all around us, and we are used to the daytime sunlight. In space, even if there is sunlight, there is no air for diffuse reflection. Even starlight doesn't help.

"Humans born and raised on Earth will go crazy if they stay in this environment for a long time. Those who have been in space for twenty years don't seem crazy, but they don't make any moves that would threaten others, but they are already crazy.

"Only the second generation of human beings who grew up in space and were born in space and grew up in space themselves, can overcome these."

After Wang Ping'an finished speaking, Lu Yingying and Angli were silent.

Suddenly, Angli said, "That is, if you stay in space for a long time, you may also become like the person you knocked down?" ”

"I don't know." Wang Ping'an shook his head, "Although I believe I won't do this, who can be sure?" ”

At this time, the computer stopped the car and announced: "The soldier's home has arrived." ”

Looking out the window, there was already a large number of people watching the show, waiting for the ticket check.
