Chapter 5: Respond proactively

Chapter 5: Respond proactively

Deep Blue, the last planet inhabited by humans in the vast eastern territory of the Central Empire, the Golden Crusade will stay here for a short time to replenish supplies. After that, the deputy ship Athena will be stationed at a distance of 100,000 light-years from Deep Blue, and the Xingtian Ship will continue. Lead Ares east.

Another 100,000 light-years to the east is the area where Ares is stationed.

As the heart of the Golden Cross, the Xingtian Ship will also go eastward, guarding the gate of the Empire in an uninhabited area.

This is the responsibility of the military.

Every point of the empire cannot be lacked.

In the past month on Xingtian Ship, Ryan has been familiar with the logistics procurement personnel. Please help him bring back a few packages from Shenlan - the packages sent from his home in E69, and the three planting cabins purchased at the same time. bring together.

There are a lot of things, and Ryan deliberately borrowed a handling robot to help.

"Just bring some things for you, you're welcome."

Lane opened the package and took out the strawberries in the fresh-keeping box and distributed them to everyone, "I'm not polite, I want everyone to taste the strawberries grown in my house, they taste good."

There are about 10 ping-pong ball-sized strawberries in white with powder in two palm-sized crisper boxes. They are nothing in the city. You can buy them in any supermarket. But in space voyages, such a little strawberry is a rarity, and no one is willing to refuse.

There is a greenhouse on the Xingtian Ship, but it is used to grow vegetables and supplement vitamins for everyone. It will not be used to grow fruits and occupy land.

A few helpers accepted it embarrassedly, and the one at the head patted his chest and assured, "If you have anything to help Ryan in the future, even if you come to us, although we don't have any big skills, it's okay to help a little."

"You guys are very kind, logistics procurement is a very important department." Ryan was telling the truth. He had been in the kitchen for ten years before, and he saw many buyers who were bullied and knew that they couldn't hate and offend them. of.

These words were very useful to a few people, and they also gave Ryan a pack of dark blue specialty star sand.

Xingxingsha is the unique sand grain of dark blue. At the seaside at night, Xingxingsha will sparkle with a faint blue light, which is very beautiful and suitable for decoration of bonsai.

"I see that you bought the planting cabin because you want to grow things in the dormitory. It looks good with a layer of star sand on it." The person who gave Ryan star sand said so.

Ryan thanked them, and after bidding farewell to these people, he instructed the transport robot to go to the dormitory.

After five days of training, there is one and a half days of rest. Today is just a rest. After Ryan got the package and the planting cabin back, he was ready to plant in the dormitory.

In addition to the strawberries, the package sent from home also includes strawberry seedlings, several kinds of mixed soil, and the black soil that Lane bought home when he traveled to the mother planet Earth. The treasures have never been used. This time, it is for Auston. Planting strawberries, he took them out.

The planting cabin is similar to a huge glass jar. The bottom is a planting base and the top is a special glass cover. It can adjust the temperature, humidity, etc. according to the characteristics of the planted plants, and can also simulate climates such as fog and lightning. As the second generation of the farm, the second generation of a little rich, Lane bought the top version, and the planting cabin can also float up as a viewing floating island.

This rich second generation is not used to raise bonsai, he is used to grow strawberries.

The strawberries sent by his parents are the newest offspring that have been cultivated. It is written on the note to him that the strawberries that are produced cannot be stored for a long time. Even if they are placed in a fresh-keeping box, they will rot and melt for more than three days, and the freshness is stable. Sex is bad.

The disadvantages are over, and the advantages are next.

The newly cultivated cream strawberry has a silky texture, like cream cheese. It is used as a decoration for desserts. It is very good and has been sought after by many bakeries.

Joy passed between the lines to Ryan.

Lane's mouth curved up happily. Mom and Dad must have opened a celebration ladder at home, and they will also use a bear to represent him.

Sure enough, Ryan found a photo from the package. In the photo, the family members were smiling at the camera. The two little bears were next to each other in the middle, with small colored caps with pointed tops on their heads.

"My precious son is getting married, and his partner is also attending the party." The mother wrote such a sentence behind the photo.

Ryan depicted two little bears, imagining himself and Auston gossiping together...

It's actually not bad, isn't it?

The photos and notes were tucked into the book, and Ryan rolled up his sleeves and got to work.

He adjusted the prepared soil a second time, adding the black soil he brought from the mother planet in a certain proportion. As the son of the farmer, he watched his parents do planting research since he was a child, and he did not need to enter the school. Learn to master this skill.

He cultivated the first-generation improved seedlings of cream strawberries at home.

Ryan is very talented at this.

His parents hoped that he could study biology and work directly on the farm after graduation, which will be his in the future. But Ryan yearns for the mecha more, hopes to explore the secrets of the mecha, and hopes to repair and design it with his own hands.

I always feel that this goal is not too far away.

Twenty centimeters of soil were piled up in the planting cabin. After watering, the strawberries were transplanted. The strawberries that were delivered were already hung with turquoise fruits, and they were not too far from maturity.

"Maybe you can find suitable wild strawberry plants on some remote planets, and you may be able to breed better plants by hybridization, and the resulting strawberries will taste better." Lane closed the planting cabin and entered some on the panel. content, to ensure that the internal environment is the best growing environment for strawberries. He also sprinkled some star sand on the surface of the soil layer, turned off the light and admired it, the light of the stars was like the night sky.

After all three planting cabins were planted, Ryan packed up and went to take a shower, sweating profusely.

"Grow up quickly, so that Auston will have something to eat." He discovered a little secret of Auston. He likes to eat sweet fruits, and he seems unable to resist the temptation of strawberries.

In the captain's room at the frontmost floor of the Xingtian Ship, where Auston lives, the medical officer Blair Winster is doing Auston's examination every seven days.

After the blood was collected from the fingertip, the test stick was dripped, but after two or three seconds, unfortunately it was a lonely green line again.

"Auston, your current physical condition is not suitable for conception. You were injured by a despicable sneak attack in Alpha. The wound has not healed. Even if he has a child, his health will not be very good." Blair threw it away. With the test stick, he put his white hands into the pockets of his white coat and sat down in front of Auston, "Not to mention that the mother's body is injured, it will instinctively reject the next generation, no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to conceive. ."

Auston withdrew his hand, and the tiny wound on it had disappeared.

"Well, I just..."

"Just what?" The old classmate, who was also an old subordinate, looked at Auston with his eyes behind the lens, "Is it a lot of fun to be with the little wolf dog?"

Auston pursed his lips, but did not speak. He has received rigorous training since he was a child, and never thought that he would be greedy for the warmth of a person, but he really felt the feeling of being cared for and cherished from Ryan, as if he was not a general who had gone through the battlefield, but an ordinary person. . "Is it bad?"

"It's not good, you fool, you are already married, and now you are cultivating relationships, it is right to get along with each other more." Blair sneakily took out the memory card from his pocket, "You are just too incapable of expressing yourself. I'm too patient, you should let go of yourself and enjoy love. I've prepared some expansion films for you, so you can study hard."

"You are often injured, and you have learned to endure all kinds of pain." Blair said earnestly: "This is not conducive to the harmony of married life, listen to me, don't bear it."

Blair, who has dissected hundreds of human bodies and thousands of Zerg, licked his thin lips, smiled coldly and cruelly, and said the deadliest words, "You have to remember that you are **** him, not killing him."

Auston didn't know what to say for a while.

Blair withdrew his love for muscles and nerves, and looked at a harmless medical officer, who was only a little interested in wounds, "Pick up your shirt, I'll look at your wounds, **** it. My son, there is actually a weapon stained with the venom of the Zerg mother insect to hurt you. I can heal the surface wounds, but the damage to the texture by the venom continues." But so far, the empire has not developed a way to metabolize the venom. The wounded can only endure the pain of being bitten every moment.

Auston calmly lifted the hem of his shirt, revealing a palm-sized bruise inside. The flesh had become numb from the pain. Even if Brian cut the skin directly without injecting anesthesia, he didn't feel anything.

"You can really be patient. Eighty percent of people who suffer from this injury will go mad. According to the data I have, you are the first and only one who has endured pain until now." And the rest Twenty percent died on the spot.

Peeling off the skin to reveal the rotten muscles inside, Brian slowly cut away the necrotic tissue. In the process, Auston's complexion became even paler, and fine sweat covered his forehead and back. It wasn't that he didn't feel pain, just enough to endure.

During the entire debridement process, he did not say a word.

"Okay." Blair sighed, "All the necrotic muscles have been removed, and I have done superficial healing of the wound, but you must know that this is a temporary solution, not a permanent solution."

But other than that, there is no way, except to die.

Blair's heart sank.

Auston's weakness was only a few breaths, and he quickly regained his composure and composure. After packing up his clothes, he stood up and said in a calm voice, "I won't die."

"I'll find a way to cure you." Blair smiled pale.

"Yeah." Auston nodded, walked steadily towards the door, opened the door, and looked at Blair.

"You kick me out?"

"No, I'm leaving too."

Blair raised his eyebrows, "It seems that someone is blessed today. When will I go to see what your little wolf dog looks like, it makes you feel nostalgic."

Auston lowered his head and chuckled. He said, "He is a very gentle person." He is not reckless or crazy, and he carefully protects his feelings even when he is the most emotional.

"He's gentle, you have to respond." Blair didn't want to see his friend keep being indifferent so that the other party's heart slowly became cold.

Auston thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I...I will." He would learn to respond.

After taking a shower, Ryan went to the restaurant to get some food and eat it in the dormitory. In essence, he is still very homely. He likes to stay in his own space, raising plants, reading books, and playing games. Time alone is not for him. alone. The food in the restaurant is delicious as always, but after taking a bite or two, Ryan always feels that it doesn't taste right, so he still wants to make something home-cooked. The cauldron dishes are popular, and there is no hometown food.

I took out the eggs and fresh shrimp from the refrigerator. This package of shrimp has been three days, and it will lose its fresh, tender and sweet taste if it is put in again.

He broke up the eggs, added water and put them into a round deep-mouthed dish, and put the shrimps with their tails up one after another, and sprinkled green chopped green onions on the surface.

What he is going to make is shrimp egg custard, which is light and delicious when drizzled with clear oil when he goes abroad.

When the egg custard came out, the door of the dormitory opened, and Auston, who was wearing black slacks and a linen shirt, walked in. He entered his iris and could enter without knocking on the door.

"I didn't come at the right time." Allston said, looking at Ryan, who was wearing an apron and wearing heat insulation gloves, holding a custard.

Ryan's eyes lit up, "The time is right, let's have dinner together. Do you like rice?"

Auston smiled, "Yes."

The smile reflected in Ryan's heart, making his breathing quicken by two points, "I have steamed egg custard here, beef stew with red wine, fried fish belly and cold asparagus. I will cook what you want." He There are still some dishes in the refrigerator, all bought from the kitchen, and I can't wait to use all my skills to cook for Auston right away. This is the first meal they have eaten together, and it is very meaningful.

"That's enough," Auston said, glancing at the table. "It's also big, and I'm not a picky eater."

He saw the planting pods that took up most of the dormitory, "One is enough, why are you thinking about getting three?"

Lane pushed all the furniture to the corners in order to put the planting cabin open. Except for the bed that looked comfortable, the rest looked aggrieved.

"I want to plant some fresh strawberries for you to eat." Ryan said with a little shyness.

Auston didn't think it was for himself, and was stunned.

"Let's eat, it will get cold after a long time, and the custard won't taste so good when it's cold." Ryan found chopsticks for Auston, and said angrily: "My family has Chinese blood, and the food is Chinese-style, and I use it all the time. chopsticks, I'll get you a spoon."

"No, I will use it."

Auston took the chopsticks and moved them flexibly, "It's very easy to use."

Ryan looked at the people sitting next to him and smiled like a fool, "I will cook a lot of dishes, a lot of Chinese dishes, and I will cook them for you. I mean, if there is a chance in the future."

"OK."

Got an affirmative answer. Ryan took a breath and raised his eyebrows happily. "Well, um, next time I'll make dumplings for you!"

Ryan would not let Auston do the work. After eating, he cleaned up neatly and put the dishes in the dishwasher. He clenched his fist and waved, and the relationship between the two improved again.

Walking out of the simple kitchen, Ryan saw that Auston was flipping through his book, which was one of the must-reads for the mecha repairing exam. It was the theory part. Auston knew that he was studying by himself. When I got closer, I found that Auston saw the photo he had put inside, "There is a party in my house, the pair of bears are me and you, this is my father and mother, this is my uncle's family, they work for my parents. It's Uncle Potter Jr., my dad's good brother. This is Cousin Connor, a web writer."

Auston's eyes fell on the pair of bear dolls that were close to each other, and a smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously. He envied the family atmosphere of Ryan's family, which was warm, joyful, relaxed and happy.

Can't help holding Ryan's hand, Auston said, "When you return to the voyage, you can take me home."

"Okay..." Ryan didn't react at first, and was ecstatic when he reacted, "Okay, my parents will definitely like you."

He couldn't help it, couldn't help but want to kiss the people around him.

Thinking so, he did the same.

This was the first time they had the most intimate move apart from the bed.

Even on the bed, there was no intimate kiss.

Ryan pressed Auston against the wall. The two were about the same height. This action was not awkward. Ryan gently kissed Auston as if he was holding a rare treasure. His lips reached Auston's. He asked nervously, "Is it okay?"

Auston lowered his eyes and suppressed the confusion in his eyes, he nodded lightly.

Ryan was greatly encouraged, kissed it, pressed his lips together, and kissed...

Then... Then, Ryan didn't know what to do, Auston's lips were so soft, his head was blank, and he couldn't remember what was said in the online tutorial.

And Auston suddenly remembered his friend's request and asked him to take the initiative. Hesitantly, he opened his lips slightly and touched it with the tip of his tongue.

boom-

Ryan felt something explode in his head.
