The boss of the last days is a salted fish in the interstellar world

"Do you have any idea about how to get out?"

After pondering for about 10 minutes, there was silence in the cabin until Jiang Yan took the lead to break the silence.

The voice rang in Shi Jin's ears. The gentle tone was the same as before, but the tail tone was slightly raised. The warm and moist breath gently sprinkled on the base of her ears, a little itchy, with this inexplicable charm and ambiguity.

The words came so suddenly that Shi Jin didn't notice it. She was startled. Maybe it was because the other person was Jiang Yan, so she unknowingly relaxed her guard.

"Still thinking, the center point of this kind of illusion is really troublesome," she said.

"Center?"

"Yeah." Shi Jin turned around and was about to explain, but suddenly found that the blond boy was too close to her position, and the tip of her nose almost touched his chest.

Shi Jin quickly took two steps back to avoid accidentally touching his injury.

There is water and food stored in the cockpit of the mecha. This game will take about three days, so everyone is well prepared.

Shi Jin got water for Jiang Yan. After the cool liquid moistened his throat, the boy's voice was no longer as hoarse as when he first woke up, and became somewhat clearer and softer.

"Sorry." When Jiang Yan saw her retreating, he smiled apologetically: "Did I scare you?"

Shi Jin shook his head and said helplessly, "No, I'm just afraid of hurting you."

After the words fell, the blond boy's eyes seemed to dim, and after a few seconds he spoke softly: "...really careful."

"After all, you are an injured patient now, so it's good to be careful." Shi Jin said.

"Really?" Jiang Yan said with a half-smile, "Thank you, then, what does that center point mean?"

Shi Jin explained: "Generally speaking, this kind of calm illusion has a center. I call it the center point. Do you know Rupert's Tears?"

The young man raised his eyebrows slightly, "That water drop glass?"

"Yes, Rupert's Tears are drop-shaped glass formed when melted glass enters ice water by natural gravity. The water drop at the front is solid, very hard, and difficult to break. However, if you pinch its tail a little, the glass will break. It will explode instantly and shatter into slag.”

Jiang Yan said: "So the center point is the tail of this illusion."

Shi Jin nodded: "It's just that I don't have a clue where its tail is at the moment. It's full of mutated flowers and green grass. The surrounding scene even continues to stretch in all directions, even if you keep walking in one direction. , you can’t get out at all, and you may suddenly find yourself back to your original position when you reach a certain point.”

"Is this called a ghost beating a wall?" The young man seemed to understand a lot about some of Shi Jin's terms.

"Ah."

"What about going up?"

"This is also the case." Shi Jin rubbed his chin, "In this illusion, is there anything that appears suddenly?"

That thing that suddenly appeared was probably Rupert's tail.

About 5 minutes later, the cockpit of the mecha suddenly shook violently!
The ground seemed to be stirred by something. Shi Jin immediately stabilized his body. However, Jiang Yan, who was still in a weak state, found it difficult to stand up straight. "Be careful!"

She was worried that if the boy fell to the ground, the wound on his chest would be involved, so she quickly stretched out her hand to grab him and pull him towards her.

Jiang Yan fell into her arms, and the young man's body suddenly stiffened!
As the earthquake became more intense, Shi Jin hugged Jiang Yan tightly to protect him, monitoring the external situation through the blue-light electronic screen with dark and serious eyes.

The mecha's body originally stayed on the ground, but the ground suddenly distorted, cracks opened in the ground, and many mutated insects emerged from below. They were larger than ordinary insects, about the size of an adult's hand. The illusion probably felt like two people. People have been staying put, so I want to force them to take action.

Her pupils flashed with purple light in an instant. She held Jiang Yan's waist with one hand, connected the laser tube with the other hand, controlled the mecha's arm and punched the ground with her fist!

The burst of electricity instantly flowed into the insect swarm, electrocuting all the buzzing giant insects in the sky into burnt black things that exuded a crunchy and crispy fragrance.

But the things in the illusion are endless and cannot be cleaned at all, and it will waste physical energy.

Shi Jin gritted his teeth slightly and said, "We have to leave here first."

The electric current formed a circle around it, and those giant insects that wanted to rush forward again were intercepted outside the electric circle.

Shi Jin let go of Jiang Yan. The young man seemed to have not yet recovered from his surprise, and his steps were a little frivolous.

Shi Jin quickly supported him and helped him stand firm, then moved away and asked with concerned eyes: "Are you okay?"

He raised his eyes to meet Jiang Yan's gaze, only to find that something was wrong with the other person's expression at the moment. His pupils were slightly constricted and even trembled slightly. His pale face had a faint crimson color. His breathing became a little heavier. He pursed his lips tightly and quickly A few steps away from her: "——It's okay."

"Really? You don't look good, you're sweating, and you're injured?"

Jiang Yan: "..."

After a few seconds, he nodded slightly: "Well, it hurts a little...I'm sorry."

A smile appeared again on the fair and handsome face, which seemed to be comforting Shi Jin. His expression was extremely gentle, with a hint of support: "I'm fine now, don't worry too much."

"How can you not be worried," Shi Jin said helplessly: "We are friends, and your safety is too important to me at the moment. If something happens to you here, after you go out, I will go to Xiaoyuan's place." How should I explain it?"

If the child saw his brother injured like this, he didn't know how he would cry.

Shi Jin also felt guilty. She should have firmly disagreed with the grouping at the beginning. If she and Jiang Yan were together, the boy would never be hurt.

"Okay, thank you." Jiang Yan looked at her sincerely, and the tenderness between his brows and his pupils suddenly became as gentle as water at this moment, rippling peacefully.

This is Jiang Yan's usual expression.

After Shi Jin saw that he was finally exactly the same as usual, he was completely relieved.

She raised her eyebrows and teased: "It seems that moving out of Xiaoyuan is still useful. You sister-in-law, don't hold back if something happens. You must tell me. Don't worry about troublesome me."

Jiang Yan: "..."

*
After reconnecting all the tubes, Shi Jin controlled the mecha to fly, not forgetting to say to the boy: "I will go slower. If you feel that the inertia is too much and you are unsteady, you can sit down against the iron sheet."

When Jiang Yan heard her words, the smile on his lips seemed to have some meaning: "Classmate Shi Jin, you really care about me."

Shi Jin said: "Didn't you just say that? We are friends."

"...Friends?" The young man murmured softly.

Then everything fell silent in the cockpit.

The giant insect chasing behind him finally disappeared after the mecha flew more than ten kilometers.But Shi Jin didn't dare to relax.

After the smell sensor is damaged, the surrounding flowers are rich in fragrance, but the smell of blood is also very obvious inside.

It was because of this bloody smell that I discovered Jiang Yan just now.

And now - it appears again.

The scenery in front of me changed in an instant. What was supposed to be a sea of ​​flowers rising into the distance suddenly turned into a courtyard that resembled a European classical palace!

The transformation of the fantasy world is too sudden and extremely abstract, making people unable to figure out the rules at all.

Shi Jin felt his head hurt.

There is a man-made stream flowing in the courtyard, and the water makes a pleasant and clear sound.

But the peaceful years ahead were completely different from where Shi Jin is now.

There was a corpse lying under the feet of the mecha's thruster.

The corpse died from having its throat cut, its eye sockets were wide open, its pupils were constricted, and its mouth was even wide open, as if it wanted to breathe but could not take in oxygen at all. In the end, it died with its eyes closed.

The smell of blood comes from here.

Shi Jin was a little surprised, because she had never seen a man's face before!
The illusion will only be modified based on what exists in the consciousness of the victim, and then affect people, such as mutated flowers and huge insects.

So - what's going on?

"What happened?" Jiang Yan's voice came from behind Shi Jin.

"There are some small problems." Shi Jin said.

The boy was not connected to the catheter, so he could not see the outside world of the mecha. He was sitting in the cockpit, and the other end of the nutrition bottle was inserted into his body and was delivering nutrients to it.

Suddenly there was another sound of footsteps in the distance, the sound was loud and clear, like the crisp sound of boots hitting the metal ground.

Shi Jin quickly took two steps back and used the tall pine shrubs and trees in the courtyard to cover the figure of his mecha.

The sound of conversation also came from far to near, and it was chaotic, and it seemed that there was really a quarrel and argument about something.

"I told you! We have a missing person! We were talking in a friendly manner between the two countries, but where is our representative?! Where is he now?! He has been missing from your palace for three days! You must give us an explanation today!"

The man's rich and aggressive voice clearly reached Shi Jin's ears. She was startled, and then the mecha looked forward, and she was stunned for a moment!
The man wearing a military uniform and iron military boots was tall, strong and strong, with a tough man's body, but a handsome face with blond hair and blue eyes.

The sharp eyebrows and handsome appearance are very similar to Jiang Yan!

"Jiang Yan, come and see, is this your dad?!" Shi Jin waved his hand, and the blue light electronic screen ejected, taking pictures from the mecha's field of view to record what happened outside.

The young man sitting on the ground moved his eyes slightly, subconsciously looked up, but his expression suddenly changed!
That face, that military uniform, that familiar expression, and the ancient cold weapon symbolizing power around his waist...

It's him...it's him! !

"Jiang Yan! Is that your dad?!" Shi Jin called out and brought the young man back to reality!

Jiang Yan's body trembled, as if he had reacted to something, and then he murmured in a trembling voice: "...It's...it's mine, father."

He stared at the man's face, his blue eyes were dark and deep, and said word by word - "Jiang, Chao, Sheng."

*
It is clear now.

He said why someone he didn't know appeared there. It turned out to be a fantasy and the object had changed. He began to extract Jiang Yan's memory to find weaknesses to attack.

Shi Jin turned his gaze to the face of the man opposite Father Jiang again.

The man was also handsome, with black hair and red eyes. He was wearing clothes that had a vague royal aura. He refuted him with the same firm eyes: "I've already said it! The disappearance of your empire representative has nothing to do with us!"

"How could I disappear in your palace if it doesn't matter?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a child with black hair and red eyes suddenly jumped out of the bushes. The child was no more than five years old. When he saw the body of the man at Shi Jin's feet, he was so frightened that he let out a scream.

"what!"

This sound attracted the two people arguing in the courtyard.

The child ran away in fear. The black-haired man looked in the child's direction, was stunned for a moment, and then yelled: "What are you doing here?! Go back to the room!"

"Father!" The child looked at him, his face extremely pale: "Dead, dead..."

His little hand tremblingly pointed to the place where the corpse was, and he said fearfully: "Here... there are dead people."

The man whom the child called his father stopped breathing, and then strode to that place. Shi Jin did not run away this time, because the child who had just jumped out had already proved that the mecha was in sight, and these people could not see it for the time being.

When Father Jiang also saw the body in the grass, his eyes suddenly turned red - "Yin Lin!! How dare you?!"

"This time we are here to talk about cooperation. Who knew, Your Majesty, you would actually use this method to intimidate us?!" His mood looked extremely angry.

At this moment, the black-haired man suddenly calmed down.

"It's really ridiculous." He looked at the corpse and sneered: "Isn't this a common method used by your empire? Put the responsibility for death on the planet you are targeting and talk about cooperation? Who doesn't know your The real purpose? Friendly exchanges? It’s all up to this person. You don’t have to pretend anymore. Haven’t Queen Victoria’s garrison been stationed on the satellites around Skello for a long time? Aren’t you just waiting for this moment? If you want to fight, just say so! Even with all the firepower of Skelo - I will drive you invaders from our land!!"

Seemingly shocked by the man's firmness, Jiang's father paused, and those pretended anger disappeared. After a few seconds, he suddenly showed a strange smile: "Okay, then - you just wait. On."

Jiang's father left, and Shi Jin saw strong ambition and eagerness to try in the man's last eyes, as well as the expectation for the war to break out later.

For him, this is the best opportunity for the Jiang family to move to the next level.

If it can be grasped, the Jiang family may be able to be on par with the Chu family and the Shi family.

And he no longer has to live in the shadow of Zhong Tian.

After the man left, the child who found the body raised his eyes tremblingly and looked at the man named Yin Lin. He found that his face was downcast, his expression was solemn and solemn, and there was a desperate determination in his eyes. He suddenly realized something and cried slightly. Asked: "...Father, did I get into trouble?"

When Father Yin heard the boy's voice, he seemed to have come to his senses. He knelt down and stroked his head. He was obviously extremely angry, but he still showed his gentlest side in front of the child and said, "No, Xiao Ci."
