He came from the bell tonight

Chapter 59

Dashboard ready.

The robotic arm is in place.

The signal is connected to the communication station.

A young voice sounded in the Voyager: "Everyone, please hold on to the handrail when you set off."

Before the people inside were in a hurry, the other party had already started counting down: "Three——"

"two."

"Sine wave drive ready."

"one."

"catapult."

The entire Voyager sank by one meter suddenly.

Su Ling saw that the surrounding stars were moving away from him at a speed of thousands of kilometers per second.The patrol ship full of mimetic bugs gradually became a small black dot in the curved dead space.

After 10 minutes, the speed suddenly slowed down.

They have left the skirt cluster.

A lot of nauseating voices sounded in the cabin, and Francis' deputy cursed dizzily: "Fuck his father, do you know how to fly a spaceship!"

Someone vomited and said, "That's Liberty Ship."

As we all know, the Liberty Ship is the largest space exploration ship in existence, and it galloped various treacherous ancient civilizations in the distance five or sixty years ago.This thing is nominally affiliated to the Interstellar Development Agency, but because it has been wandering on the edge of the universe for many years, it is not subject to any regulations of the alliance.

Because of this, this ship is not only the most legendary pioneer, but also created countless interstellar history.

Anyone who has explored the universe has been following in the footsteps of the Liberty Ship to some extent, and pirates are no exception.

With the contraction of the mechanical arm, Voyager gradually approached the huge Liberty Ship.

"The corridor bridge has been connected." The mechanical female voice read word by word.

After a shock, Voyager completely stabilized.

The bridge hatch opens.

"Is everyone okay?" A red-haired girl poked her head into the Voyager first.She was bouncing around as she walked, and beside her was a big, dark, stern-looking man.The latter carried a large box full of energy supplements.

Scar's face was suddenly a little shy: "No, nothing."

The red-haired girl was full of vigor, like a cluster of flames, and sent something to everyone one by one.

"It's been a long journey, it's been hard work."

Just as they were chatting, a strange and frivolous voice appeared in Su Ling's ear: "This guy Xiao Huaiyan only knows how to cause trouble, and it really delays my sleep time. Are you right?"

The man was tall and slender, with a young and handsome face, about the same age as Xiao Huaiyan.His shoulder-length brown hair was braided behind his head.

"Hello, Liberty Ship Deputy Captain, Tomi."

When Su Ling was hesitating, an energy dose hit him.

"Stay away from Suling." Xiao Huaiyan said coldly.

He strode over, blocking Su Ling behind him.

Dong Mi glared at him and made a grimace: "Stingy, drink cold water. Su Ling, you must not learn from this guy."

"Are you shameless?" Xiao Huaiyan confronted him tit-for-tat, without restraint, "If you hadn't caught Suling back then—"

"Hush!" Tomi warned.

You must know that humanoid weapons are captured by patrol ships in name.The Liberty Ship did it just once.The matter was kept silent within the Ministry of Science, and no records were kept.

Those peach blossom eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "You don't admit it now?"

"Xiao Huaiyan!" Dong Mi gritted his teeth, suddenly remembered something, and his face changed, "If you hadn't begged me to save you, I wouldn't be bothered to come. Not only did I take a detour, but it also delayed my return home from vacation!"

Xiao Huaiyan was puzzled: "Who begged you?"

Dong Mi exploded at one point, unable to bear it any longer: "Heh, Su Ling, look at him, he doesn't even dare to admit the frequency of his distress calls. Why, someone pressed your hand to send it for you?"

Su Ling didn't speak.

Xiao Huaiyan had an expression of "what the hell are you talking about?", after all, he didn't remember the distress signal from the Liberty Ship at all.Such a long list, whoever likes to remember will remember.

Dong Mi reprimanded endlessly: "... As students of the Imperial College, if you don't stay in Fei Lianxing, it's fine to hang out with this group of messy pirates. You have been missing for so long. If it wasn't for Sister Yimo's birthday When it arrives, I won’t be bothered to take a trip—boring!”

The "messy" pirates around looked at him one after another.

"You shouldn't drink early in the morning," Xiao Huaiyan said lazily, "Xiao Yimo's birthday is at the end of August, and spring is not over yet."

"What are you talking about—" Dong Mi paused suddenly, and saw the electronic clock on the wall, where it was written, April 2496, 4.

Dirty Braid's face was stiff: "...you are not kidding me, are you?"

Su Ling was holding an energy potion, and his eyes fell on the production date on the packaging, July 2496, 7.

Two minutes later, the corner of Xizidu's mouth twitched: "Did you mean that four months have passed outside? Now it is actually August 2th?"

After repeatedly confirming it more than a dozen times, Dong Mi had a headache.

Xiao Huaiyan speculated patiently: "In this curved space, time is also curved, and the flow rate is inconsistent with the outside. From our point of view, only six standard hours have passed since entering the skirt star cluster, but in fact it is already 120 hours." God."

"So, to a certain extent, you all think that we are missing. Well, it's not quite right to say that, we were also missing. From the moment we entered the skirt star cluster, time has been distorted."

Su Ling thought of the people in the patrol ship: "...the sleep cabin."

Dong Mi followed them to the cold storage room for a look.Even in the patrol cabin that had completely lost its energy, those corpses didn't show obvious corruption.

The time on the dormant cabin changed from December 28 to December 29.In other words, the timer in the dormant cabin is still operating normally.

"So when we found them, these people had just died?" Xizi covered her mouth.

Then it all makes sense.

For Yoshida, he had just captured those humanoid weapons from the patrol ship not long ago, so he was eager to get rid of them, and the seventeen humanoid weapons had no memory of it.

From the time when the first patrol ship entered the skirt star cluster to when Suling and the others departed from Poseidon, the four or five months were compressed into one day here.

Everyone was silent for a few minutes.The pirates looked for wine one after another, saying they would drink a few more glasses to lower their blood pressure.

Ou Chuchu held her face and sighed, "Then my summer vacation is over already?"

Xizi, who was reminded, looked at Lian Xiao and hugged her head in pain.

... Damn, it seems that the homework of interstellar theory is not finished yet? ! !

Only Francis was bored counting the empty wine bottles, and suddenly became happy-this directly saved four months of drinking money, which is a good deal!

Later, Dong Mi invited Suling to visit the Liberty Ship, and introduced him to the two people who had given the energy potion before.

"Kuru." Dong Mi pointed at the big guy, who couldn't speak much.

The red-haired girl was as dazzling as a flame, and she offered her hand: "Hi, I'm Clara."

Su Ling shook hands with her.

Xiao Huaiyan followed behind and cleared his throat.

Dong Mi shrugged generously: "Alright, you can come up and have a look."

After boarding the Liberty Ship, Su Ling realized that there were only three of them in such a large sailing ship.

"Kuru is in charge of technical work. He will change the engine for Voyager later. Clara is in charge of communications, records, procurement—as for me, I will take care of everything else."

Su Ling followed them slowly from top to bottom.The Freedom Ship is divided into many layers, and there is even a layer dedicated to growing vegetables and fruits.Numerous incubators are placed on tall shelves, stacked on top of each other, which can guarantee food and water for four to five hundred people within two months when the tank is full.

"Occasionally, there will be some disasters, and the local people need to be evacuated," Clara explained to Suling, "so, everything must be prepared."

At this time, a sharp cry attracted Su Ling.

It was at the bottom of the Liberty Ship, and in an oversized cage there was a black mass with feathers gathered together and sharp gray eyes.

"Charlas Falcon." Xiao Huaiyan recognized it.

"Don't look so fierce, but she has a very well-behaved personality and a very keen sense of smell," Dong Mi said convincingly, "This is a birthday present I prepared for Sister Yimo, she will definitely like it."

"Where did you get it again?" Xiao Huaiyan joked.

Dong Mi retorted: "This cub was injured, and I don't know who threw it in a place where the birds don't shit. This kind of domesticated falcon will die if no one takes care of it."

The two of them said one sentence, and they were almost at war again.Here Clara whispered to Su Ling: "Our Liberty Ship will never take the initiative to catch any creatures."

Su Ling stared at her, his light-colored eyes slightly confused.

Clara reacted and blinked: "Come with me."

She led Su Ling to a corner and opened a secret door.Stepping down the steps, you can see a glass platform about one square meter.

"I was the first to find you that day."

Clara performed a routine shipwide inspection before wrapping up her day's work.When she reached the bottom of the Liberty Ship, she saw a floating figure, as if covered in ice, with long hair still shimmering.

"I thought it was a dead person. You know, no human being can be that alive in a space environment."

She and Dong Mi studied for a while, and found that the person who was picked up was so beautiful that it was not real at all.But the man was extremely weak and in a deep sleep.

"This is a humanoid weapon." Dong Mi recognized it at that time.

According to the internal information they reviewed, Dongmi and Clara agreed that Suling was in a state of hypothermia, and the contract must be made as soon as possible to return to a normal state.

And it happened to be Xiao Huaiyan's birthday at that time, out of a deliberate teasing mentality, Dong Mi made a random decision.

"I'm sorry I didn't get your permission," Clara folded her hands together and added sincerely, "We were also there that day, and we left after the contract was completed."

"But I don't know how the Ministry of Science does it. I'm sorry if you were hurt by this."

At that moment, the snow-white experimental cabin jumped into Su Ling's mind.The cold chains, heavy machines, and the unbearable smell of disinfectant.Everything is full of oppression.

And those machines prepared for the test slowly emerged from the sleeping memory.

At a place separated from Clara and Dongmi by a glass, the experimenter in a protective suit is rapidly recording in the name of inspection.

"Pain threshold, blood color, cell growth rate, skin sampling..."

Cutting, pain, regrowth.Repeatedly.The strength of the machine gradually increased, in order to test the critical value.

It's all done out of sight.

No matter how he struggled, those machines locked his limbs firmly.The surrounding experimenter in a white coat and a mask watched coldly, and even showed excited eyes because of his increasing pain.

Time passed very slowly, very slowly.

Later, when Su Ling was wrapped in clothes and sent to the quantum machine for the contract, he was already unconscious and fell into a coma.But that stunningly beautiful look still looked clean, as if nothing had happened.

The infinite influx of details made Su Ling's breathing gradually quicken, and his chest heaved violently.It seems that everything that happened at that time is also left on me now.

"Are you alright?" Clara asked with concern when she saw something was wrong.

Su Ling took a step back and clenched his hands into fists against the cold wall.

He heard Clara scream, and the wall behind him seemed to crack.There are many voices speaking.The sound of hurried footsteps approached him, and the familiar warm breath rushed over his face.

"...Don't come here." Su Ling lowered his head, his voice trembling.The hair almost covered the eyes.

He was trying to control himself, to withdraw himself from those memories.But the powerlessness of the struggle gathered in the palm of his hand uncontrollably at this moment, and slowly condensed into a beam of light.

A hand wrapped around his.The moment the light blade cut through the opponent's palm, he heard the sound of pain.But was drawn into an unhesitating embrace.

Dong Mi and Clara looked at each other, the former glared excitedly as if watching a good show: "Will Su Ling kill him?"

However, Xiao Huaiyan gently stroked his trembling back, comforting him over and over again.And Su Ling's arched back was really inch by inch, and it slowly stabilized.

"It's okay, Su Ling," a deep voice rang in Su Ling's ear, "It's safe here, don't be nervous."

……Safety?

There is no disinfectant, no hypnotics, and no cold machinery.

...removal of sources of danger.

Yes.He is safe.

Su Ling's curled fingers were slowly stretched out, and then pressed against his palm along the gap between the fingers.

The Shining Blade disappeared.

Su Ling lost strength instantly and fell into that embrace.Slowly, he became quieter.

He leaned on Xiao Huaiyan's shoulder, and raised his clasped left hand.When it was released, a blood-red wound appeared on Xiao Huaiyan's palm.It was just scratched.

Su Ling subconsciously wanted to wipe off the bloodstains for him, but it was a mess.The more this happened, the more impatient he became.

"Suling, it's alright, stop."

Su Ling ignored it, and wiped away the oozing blood with his fingers.

"...It's dirty." He murmured.

Until Xiao Huaiyan grabbed his hand.The reddish traces are all over the white fingers, like some dotted red flowers, cruel and beautiful.

The next moment, the cold index finger was wrapped in warmth.

Su Ling was startled, only to see Xiao Huaiyan lowered his head and held his index finger in his mouth, licking and licking off the blood bit by bit.until all five fingers are clean.

Su Ling watched him until he finished all this.

"It's not dirty now." Xiao Huaiyan said.The peach-blossom eyes looked bright in the dim light, faintly as if asking for credit.

Su Ling rubbed his hair, not knowing why, feeling a little blocked.He took the initiative to move closer, and put his chin on Xiao Huaiyan's shoulder.

The arms around him tightened a little, Xiao Huaiyan coaxed in a low voice: "Su Ling, look outside."

Outside the transparent glass, the distant skirt star cluster is like a colorful ocean.When cosmic rays passed there, they turned into countless clearly visible lines, and each ups and downs and interlacing were different brilliance.Gloom and splendor go back and forth, forming a magnificent tide.

...beautiful.

Su Ling closed his eyes sleepily.

The author has something to say:

At this time, Xiao Xiao was already feeling a little crazy...

Xiao Xiao:?What's wrong with licking my wife clean? Is there a problem?

Tomi: Who am I, where am I, I don't see anything.
