Chapter 41: A New Era

For a person who served as the Secretary-General of the United Nations during the Cold War, and personally ended the United Nations system, banned the armies of the old world to form the Defense Force, and then personally reorganized the Old Defense Force into the TPC, Casto felt that even if he only had the slightest idea of wanting to help the old man Sawai, he was humiliating the great old man.

However, Casto does not need to be involved in the internal struggle of the entire TPC, but that does not mean that this matter will not interfere with him.

TPC's Far East base, since the announcement of the Space Development Agency's letting Sanada Ryosuke use Abron cells be revealed, the original harmonious atmosphere inside the base has been broken.

Everyone here joins with the ideal of peace, as the real headquarters of TPC, the Far East base is qualified to bear the weight of this sentence, this is not a place to brush up on resumes, there is no kind of work that can be done easily, everyone here may have signed hundreds of non-disclosure agreements, as long as these people are willing, even the lowest transport class, can go outside to be the best driver in the world.

All the people are elites, and they used to come here because of the yearning for peace, but now they are separated by the idea of science.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

There was a knock on the door, and Casto looked at the breakfast that showed it was still on the way, and then at the person standing outside the door of the monitor, knowing that he had ordered the first batch of breakfast at the base, and this guy came earlier than breakfast......

Castor opened the door, and Xincheng was standing in front of his room in the Victory jersey, holding a breakfast marked with Casto's room number.

"You guy, it seems that Sister Megumi is right, you are indeed in trouble." Casto took breakfast, then stepped out of the way to welcome Xincheng in, and the moment he stepped along, Casto smelled the faint smell of wine on Xincheng's body.

"I'm sorry to disturb, the captain insisted on forcing me to come." Xincheng's eyes were bloodshot, and a helpless smile appeared on his face.

Casto opened the PDI and looked at the records sent to him by Megumi Interma, and then looked at Shinjo, "You and that guy from Horii actually had a fight, it's rare, I always thought that although the two of you were arguing, they actually had a good relationship." ”

Xincheng's expression froze, and then he turned his head, "Who would have a good relationship with that kind of conservative coward!" ”

Casto opened the bag of breakfast, revealing the two breakfasts inside, "Chinese breakfast, fried dough sticks and soy milk, do you want one?" ”

"No need, I don't have much appetite."

"After a hangover, it will be much more comfortable to drink some soy milk, or do you want me to drink a little more with you?"

Xincheng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, shook his head, and took the breakfast from Casto's hand.

As Casto said, fried dough sticks and soy milk, plus a Chinese-style meat bun that can no longer be Chinese.

Xincheng drank until midnight yesterday, and fell asleep without taking a shower, and now the whole person is in a daze and has no appetite, but this kind of breakfast looks too fragrant, "Is there any coffee powder?" ”

Casto's hand holding the bun shook a little, "Coffee...... Soy milk? ”

He looked at Xincheng with a heretic look, "If you do this kind of behavior in China, you should be punished with capital punishment, right?!" ”

Xincheng scratched his head, "Is it so serious?" I've actually tried a lot, like cola coffee, yogurt coffee, beer coffee, etc. ”

"It's a coffee lozenge, you'll eat one later."

Castor took a pill out of a drawer and threw it over.

Xincheng put away the coffee, and then looked at the steaming soy milk in his hand, "What, the soy milk I used to drink seems to be white... Why do you still have green onions, shrimp skin and fritters in this? ”

"Actually, I also drink sweet soy milk, but what qualifications do you have to dislike me as a soy milk coffee maker?" Casto looked at Xincheng with dissatisfaction and dared to make demands on him.

Xincheng shrugged his shoulders, then took a sip of salted soy milk, "Well, if it's used as a soup, this thing is really delicious, and it's perfect for drinking a bowl of this stuff after drinking too much wine." ”

Casto wasn't sure if a normal person would feel comfortable drinking salted soy milk after a hangover, and in his opinion, after drinking too much, he should drink a little more beer the next day to relax.

"I had a fight with that guy from Horii, and we all felt that such a thing shouldn't exist in the world about the Ablon cell, but it was just the Ablon cell."

"They shouldn't ban all potentially dangerous technologies just because people are using Eblon cells incorrectly."

"You still know technology?" Casto was somewhat surprised, "Shoot or fly?" ”

Xincheng raised the half-drunk cup with some disbelief, "I'm the elite of astronauts, and I have several titles like Master of Engineering." ”

"Although I am not the same as a genius scientist like Horii, I have been involved in the modification of the Victory Feiyan series throughout the whole process, and the squad leader of the maintenance team may not be better than me in terms of technology."

Casto drank the soy milk in the cup in one gulp, "That's what everyone in this base thinks, even if they are not scientists, everyone here has super scientific literacy, you know, the cooking class in the base has at least a master's degree in nutrition." ”

"But how are they doing?"

Xincheng raised his eyebrows, "Now everyone outside is divided into two factions, and it's not because of this that I gave up becoming an astronaut to join the victory team. ”

"My hometown is Okinawa, and I have been ostracized since the day I entered the big city, and they all called me a foreigner from Okinawa, and since then, the universe has entered my dreams, and I think that only the vast and mysterious universe can make me feel at ease, but the emergence of TPC has brought me a new possibility, and human beings may not need to enter the universe to be able to be united."

"But when I joined the winning team, I found that it was the same here, and everyone had different ideas."

"Do you think that after joining the victory team, there will be no barriers between people?" Casto looked Xincheng up and down with some suspicion, as if to laugh at the fellow's innocence.

Xincheng said a little stiffly, "At least it shouldn't be like now, it's more direct than the outside, and the conflict is more obvious." ”

Casto shook his head, "You think there's a lot of conflict, but do you realize that we're actually fighting for a common goal?" ”

"What you think of as conflict is actually a kind of psychological confusion about how to move towards peace, just like you, do you really think that science should not be regulated at all?"

Castor smiled slightly, "You know that what the other party said is also reasonable, for the technology that human beings can't master, human beings should make some restrictions, but you feel that once you agree with the other party's point of view, your vision of peace will be shaken, and the kind of picture you imagined, in which human beings are desperate to enter the universe, has become a different kind of picture." ”

Xincheng looked at Casto, silent, just watching, neither refuting nor agreeing.

Casor continued, "People here are like that, and Horii as a scientist doesn't know anything like the Ablon cell, but if one of the studies is successful, humanity can take a big step forward." ”

"But he won't say it, he won't even think about it."

"If he really retreats, then it means that he is thinking about science wrongly, then his friend Ryosuke Sanada will die in vain, and his idea of peace will be shaken."

"TPC has just been established, the world is adapting to the existence of TPC, and the original ideas of this world are also re-impacting TPC, as a member of TPC, you as the first people to join TPC from the old order, will naturally experience such ideological changes countless times."

Xincheng said a little uncomfortable, "Then what can we do, I can't accept that human beings are cautious about the development of science and technology from now on, because human exploration of the universe starts from fantasy." However, Horii could not accept the bottom line of human beings indulging in science in order to enter the universe, and his friend died because of such a thing. ”

"Is there a possibility, in fact, you are all right and wrong, why do you have to try to deal with every study with such a grand concept, why is there only two possibilities for a thing: conservative and radical."

"But in that case, I always feel that this is not the same as what I imagined before I joined TPC."

Casto, "Then ask what your heart really wants, whether it is the fantasy of the new era when you stand in the old era, or the exploration of the new era when you stand in the new era." ”

"TPC was never established to destroy an old era, but to unite everyone to build a truly new era!"

"Conflict, progress, conflict, progress, conflict, until peace comes once and for all – that's the history of TPC."
