Chapter 40
Chapter 40
Sylvia was tall, as tall as Qin Xingyuan, and she was wearing high heels, blocking his sight.As if aware of this, she took a step to the side, revealing the girl sitting on the sofa across from her.
"You came earlier, and it happens that Ive is bored by herself, so you can accompany her for a while." Sylvia pointed to the girl and said to Qin Xingyuan. "This is my daughter, Aifu. Aifu, this is Qin Xingyuan, the eldest son of Earl Qin Haomo."
Ai Fu raised her eyes, and her cold gaze swept across Qin Xingyuan, making him feel like he was being scanned by X-rays. "Understood, mother. Go and do other things."
Sylvia left, leaving only the two of them in the room.
Ive doesn't look like Sylvia, but she is full of the shadow of her father who died young. Her facial features are exquisite and correct, and her outline is softer than that of her mother. It's just that pair of sharp eyes and the soldier's posture like a drawn sword are different from Xi's. Sylvia is exactly the same.
"Sit down," she said. "I won't be polite to you, we all know what our parents mean."
Qin Xingyuan lowered his head and said, "I don't think so."
"You think I have this idea?" Eve sneered and sighed. "I don't have any complaints against you. If you plan to find a man to marry, to be honest, your conditions are also good, but it's a pity..."
"what?"
"Gender is wrong."
"Huh?" Qin Xingyuan was so startled that his eyebrows almost flew over his head.
It's not that it's so shocking, in fact, with the reproduction technology and gender diversity of the interstellar age, it's all right.But Ave is not only an aristocrat, but also an upstart, and the sole heir of this emerging power family, and even urgently needs marriage to consolidate her existing status... This is very bald.
"Do you have a lover or someone you like?" Ive asked suddenly.
The single dog Qin Xingyuan replied truthfully: "No, why?"
"I have an idea." Eve said: "We can pretend to be a couple and fool them first during this time."
"And then?" Qin Xingyuan showed disapproval.
"After a while, I will be able to advance to another level. At that time, my military achievements can be exchanged for a higher level of title, and the importance of marriage will not be so significant."
"Are you so confident in yourself?"
It's no wonder Qin Xingyuan suspected that Aifu's current military rank is a lieutenant colonel. According to official information, she worked in the medical technology department of the Third Army under her mother.Although the importance of this department is not low, in any case, it is no more able to accumulate military merit than the front line.
Although local wars broke out from time to time, some came from the attacks of the Communist Party, and there were also rebellious non-human races, but today's Galactic Empire is basically in a period of peace, and it is not easy to accumulate military achievements, let alone the logistics department.
Eve smiled lightly. "I'm just a second job in the medical department."
Qin Xingyuan raised his eyebrows.The implication is that her real job is probably in the special forces on the front line.
"The next step is the secret, right?" He asked seemingly casually, with usual curiosity in his tone.
Eve nodded. "make a deal?"
Qin Xingyuan knew that she would not follow the topic of work any longer, so he reached out his hand.He smiled and said, "It just so happens that I also want to get rid of the shackles my father put on me, so...a deal."
After the banquet started, they walked together naturally.Qin Xingyuan could feel Sylvia's encouraging eyes lingering on them, and he couldn't help but feel absurd. This major general who can see through the deployment of enemy ships can't see through the heart of her only daughter.
Sylvia's ambition is not small.Qin Xingyuan understood this point. If she had no ambitions, she would not have asked Ave to marry a family with royal blood.
In the days that followed, he and Ive walked around each other, and in the eyes of outsiders, they became a pair of gluey couples.In fact, of course they don't have any close relationship, but as time gets longer and longer, they become different kind of friends.
a few days later.
Shi Han was traveling through cyberspace when suddenly, a familiar signal floated towards him.His mental tentacles grabbed it, and in just a split second, the information entered his mind.
It's Alice.
With a thought, he followed the nearest path and appeared in front of Alice in the next second.
"Anything to report?"
Alice thumped and knelt down: "Master Master!"
"..." Shi Han put on a wooden face. "Get up and talk."
"Yes!" Alice replied, "Last time you asked us to search for a special AI, and we found suspicious traces. Now Hyosung is carefully observing and needs your further instructions."
"Where is it?" Shi Han asked.
Of course, AI cannot speak in the virtual space. Their way of communicating is to send texts to each other. After Shi Han asked this sentence, Alice packed up the existing information, and a light point from the fingertips of her virtual body Floating out, he immediately came to Shi Han and hovered in front of him.Shi Han stretched out his hand to touch it, and a piece of well-arranged information entered into his mind.
B-level AI
Name: Garcia
Affiliation: Major General Sylvia Brown, Senior Commander, III Corps
Resident range: Long Song Star [129.210.4x...-129.210.5x.../(255.255.0...)]
"This address is near Sylvia's house?" Shi Han asked.
"Yes, there is a military base near Sylvia's mansion. It is speculated that there are several floors below the base. Garcia usually stays there, acting as the center for operating the entire underground base."
"Beautifully done." Shi Han praised.Alice almost jumped for joy at his compliment.
"Master Shihan, do you need our help in the invasion?"
"I just did a text analysis on Changgexing and some nearby lace reports, and found that Qin Xingyuan has been very close to Sylvia's daughter during this period. I am quite familiar with Qin Xingyuan. According to his personality, there is a high probability that he will not If I fell in love with Eve Brown, then I must have my own needs. I can contact Qin Xingyuan, and if the interests are the same, he should not refuse to do me a small favor. I will solve this matter myself."
Shi Han laughed. "Go eat your popcorn."
Alice made a note of Xiaoxing in her heart.This strange code lover AI who dragged her into the water gave her a serious image!
After bidding farewell to Alice, Shi Han immediately contacted Qin Xingyuan.
Qin Xingyuan rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at the clock. It was only six o'clock in the morning of Galaxy Standard Time.
Although the rotation of the Changge star is not synchronized with the day and night of the Milky Way standard time, for the interstellar citizens who travel frequently, they would rather forcefully adjust the indoor light to the Milky Way standard time and live the day and night of the parent planet Earth, or it is better to fall once on a planet jet lag.
Moreover, despite being away from the earth for many years, the internal biological clock of the human body is still set for 24 hours, which does not coincide with the four-hour, 36-hour or even one-week rotation period of some habitable planets.
Qin Xingyuan also rested and lived according to the Yinhe standard, and couldn't help yawning, wanting to complain that Shihan's communication came too early.
"You are very close to Sylvia's daughter Ive Brown now?" Shi Han at the other end of the video did not show any signs of fatigue, making Qin Xingyuan doubt his life.
"Yes." Qin Xingyuan replied. "What do you want to ask?"
"You and her are not really in a relationship, are you?"
"No." Qin Xingyuan admitted straightforwardly. "I'll act with her."
"The interests of the Brown family don't matter to you?"
"It doesn't matter. What? The organization has another mission?" He and Aifu are good friends now, but this does not prevent Qin Xingyuan from selling Aifu in a second when facing a real colleague.
"I want you to do me a favor, and in the same way, I will help you in the process..."
After listening to Shi Han's narration, Qin Xingyuan felt that someone brought a pillow when he dozed off.He originally had a mission to steal military secrets, and he also had a cracking program written by Shi Han. He set his target on the Third Army where Ive was. Find information about the missing Yashi in Secret.
Of course, if he asked Shi Han what the "Imperial Potential Talents Plan" was now, Shi Han would know the answer.It's a pity that Qin Xingyuan didn't know that Shi Han was a lover. Of course, even if he asked, Shi Han would still keep this information as a bait, and he would never tell him right away.
Shi Han is indeed not a good person.
Now, Shihan asked him to find the main intelligence of the underground base and implant another program into it.Compared with stealing secrets, this matter is not too difficult, Shi Han also promised to provide him with help at any time during the mission.
Qin Xingyuan agreed.
Only a few days later, a perfect opportunity came by itself-Ive invited him to visit her family's underground base with it.
Qin Xingyuan understood that this meant that his father and Sylvia had reached a preliminary alliance and entered the first stage of interest exchange.At the same time, the engagement between him and Ive may also be on the agenda, so Ave invited him to visit at the behest of his mother.
Naturally, he would not let go of this golden opportunity.
Although he is already Ive's "future marriage partner", at least for now he is still an outsider.An underground base of military aristocrats is always strictly guarded. Outsiders are required to take off all smart devices before entering.
Qin Xingyuan hid the program provided by Shihan in the memory card, and stuck it to his wrist, covered with a realistic skin with a layer of insulating material, to escape the detection of the machine.
On that day, he and Ive walked into the gate talking and laughing.
The first three floors are a very common layout, any underground building of a big noble has it.The next three floors are the unique training rooms and weapon areas of military facilities, as well as accommodation areas, restaurants, etc. for internal personnel.
Qin Xingyuan passed by many soldiers. When they saw Aifu, they all smiled and saluted her politely.They were full of energy and vitality, as if they had all had a pleasant dream the night before.
At the beginning, he was amazed by this spirit, and sincerely admired Ive and her mother's training and emphasis on soldiers.No wonder Sylvia was able to make great military exploits in such a short period of time. With such a group of subordinates, why not win the war.
But along the way, after seeing more and more cheerful and happy faces, Qin Xingyuan began to feel depressed.
So weird, why are they so happy?You know what a luxury happiness is in today's empire.
