Chapter 19

It's been a while since I came back to this so-called "home". Lin Jian pushed open the iron gate and walked into the front yard. It was late autumn, but the plants in the yard were still green. However, most of the plants planted in the Lin family's house are woody coniferous plants.The branches of these plants are handsome, and the leaves are deep in color, just like the heavy feeling of this military family.

The housekeeper had already been guarding the door, and when he saw Lin Jian walking in, he still had a polite and respectful smile on his face, "The major general has returned to the mansion. At this time, Miss Lin Hong has not returned in the study. Miss Lin Jian is now Should I go back to my room or go to see the major general first?"

Lin Jian thought for a while as he walked, and then answered the butler: "Is brother busy? Will I disturb him if I go now?" The rank of major general and the commander of a fleet should be a busy person, and it is three o'clock in the afternoon Many people are still staying in the study, I don't know if they are still dealing with military affairs.In fact, Lin Jian didn't really want to see him. This person's sense of oppression is not usually strong.But as a younger sister, when she returned home, it seemed unreasonable to turn a blind eye to her brother who had been away for half a year, especially since he was her de facto guardian now.She still counts on him for food and clothing.

"The major general is not dealing with military affairs. Before entering the study, he told me that if the ladies go home, they can go to him." The butler answered meticulously, looking at Lin Jian with gentle eyes, and there was a hint of teasing in that smile, As if seeing through Lin Jian's fear of his brother's hesitation, Lin Jian felt a little uncomfortable, "It seems that there will be guests coming tonight, and I'm going to check some dinner preparations now."

"Okay." Lin Jian nodded. After the butler disappeared around the corner, she took a deep breath and walked upstairs. After a few steps, she stood in front of Lin Mo's study.

Lin Jian looked at the wooden door carved with simple patterns, raised his hand and knocked lightly a few times. After waiting for a while, there was no response from the door, so he knocked a few more times, still the same.Didn't you say it was in the study?Lin Jian was a little puzzled, and just about to turn around and leave, her heart trembled slightly. For some reason, there was a desire to go in in her heart, and her curiosity was inexplicable and fierce.Her "brother", the youngest outstanding military officer in the empire, was inside right now, but there was no answer when he knocked on the door. Why?What is he doing?Lin Jian felt that she had never been a curious person, but at such a late autumn afternoon, standing in this mansion that she had lived in for half a year but was still unfamiliar with, facing such a closed door, suddenly Began to be curious.

Lin Jian clenched his hand to the doorknob and turned it gently, feeling nervous in his heart, but his hand didn't tremble at all.

"Click", the door was not locked and was easily opened.The soft sound seemed to shake Lin Jian, and his mind was instantly awake. Lin Jian blinked, and the clarity in his mind instantly recovered, and the corner of his mouth smiled involuntarily. Anyway, this body is still a child of this family, and the inside No matter how high the military rank is, she is also the brother of this body. She found that she still did not really regard herself as the original 17-year-old girl. Although Lin Jian didn't want to do this, her family should learn to accept it. .

Thinking of this moment, Lin Jian didn't hesitate anymore, and gently pushed the door open, and the scene inside the house immediately unfolded in front of his eyes. The entire wall was dominated by bookcases, which were filled with books, and beside the window with blue curtains was a bookcase. A wooden desk with a few books on it, a communicator and a not-so-new computer.It looks like an ordinary study room 1000 years ago. When Lin Jian came here last time, he was nervous and didn't look carefully at this study room. Only now did he take a good look at it.However, the owner of this study room was not there at this time.

Lin Jian walked into the study room, turned around to look, only to find that the study room was originally a suite, and there was a door on the wall facing the desk. gap.What's this?A bedroom in the study?Lin Jian was confused and walked over.Just as he was about to push the door open with his hand, he suddenly thought, if this was the bedroom, would he see something he shouldn't have seen?However, with Lin Mo's icy face and the low air pressure around him, coupled with Angelina's admiration, he shouldn't be able to bring a woman home and fight on the bed without locking the door, right? It subverts the worldview too much.Lin Jian hesitated for a moment, what was he thinking about, could it be that he was too tired these days?

Just as she spit on herself, a few rays of light flashed through the crack of the open door, like watching TV in a dark room, Lin Jian was taken aback, and gently pushed the door open.

Sure enough, on the wall facing the door, there was a large screen that almost occupied the entire wall.

At a glance, Lin Jian was immediately attracted by the picture on the big screen.

It was a battle between two armies in a universe like night.The 600-meter-long warships covered the entire star field. From this perspective, the shining warships were like the fangs raised by ferocious beasts in the dark night. A blinding strong light flickered on the screen, and after hitting the battleship, the armor shield on the battleship instantly burst into red light, and the entire dark space of the star field was illuminated like daylight.Battleships and armored ships exploded during the battle, sparking even more radiant light. That beautiful but cruel light eclipsed the fierce and turbulent stars in the distance.

In such a quiet room, such a tragic battle is taking place. Lin Jian watched the battle on the wall almost as if he was suffocated, until he slowly felt the vibration of the soles of his feet, and then realized that there is a sound-shielding field in the room, and At this time, he was standing outside the sound shielding field.

The furnishings in the room are extremely simple, except for the big screen on the wall, there is only a small table like a desk, with an ashtray and a cigarette case on the table.Facing the wall screen is a big sofa, and there is a person sitting on it at this time, whoever it is if it is not Lin Mo.

Lin Jian couldn't see his face, but could only see him from the side, a cigarette was burning in his hand, and a faint red light flickered in the dark room, with both hands resting on the sofa With his forehead resting on the armrest, his face appears and disappears with the light on the screen. Lin Jian saw the dejected expression under his half-down eyes in the gap between the light shining.It took Lin Jian a long time to move. This person almost merged with the darkness, making it impossible for people to walk in.

As soon as he stepped into the sound shielding field, Lin Jian was immediately spotted.

Lin Mo turned his head instantly, and as he turned his head, his body sat up straight.After seeing the person coming, he frowned, and his originally sharp face looked even sharper now.The coldness in those ice blue eyes made Lin Jian's heart tremble involuntarily.

"Boom!" Another battleship was sunk on the screen, and because it was close to the cameraman, there was a loud sound at the moment of being sunk, like a scream.The loud noise pressing against her ear made Lin Jian tremble violently. After recovering from her senses, she saw Lin Mo pick up the remote control at hand and press the button, and the sound disappeared instantly.

The sound was muted, and Lin Jian felt that she seemed to have entered a vacuum for a moment. Standing in front of Lin Mo, she felt his cold gaze shining on her body, which was so cold that it made the scalp tingle.This silence was so uncomfortable, Lin Jian bit her lower lip, "I knocked on the door..." She really didn't know how to start a topic.

"The communicator in this room is always on." Hearing Lin Jian's words, Lin Mo glanced at the side of the screen, and Lin Jian noticed that there was a small screen next to the big screen, which flashed the red color that was activated at this time Signal light, her heart tightened. After half a year in this world, she was still not very used to some things that even children could already use. When she knocked on the door just now, she ignored another terminal device on the communication machine next to the door.Didn't think of this at all.

"Sorry to bother you." Thinking of this, Lin Jian felt a little calmer, raised her head to look directly at Lin Mo, straightened her back, and admitted her mistake.Curiosity really killed the cat, now Lin Jian is looking forward to the iceberg opposite to pardon her and let her get out quickly.

"Want to come and sit?"

Lin Jian was a little surprised by Lin Mo's words. She quickly looked at Lin Mo. He was sitting on the sofa and looking at her sideways. Although it is bent, it still has to move forward slightly.There was no emotion on his face, Lin Jian wasn't sure if he really wanted her to sit there, or was he being polite?Thinking of this, Lin Jian walked over, sat down on the other end of the sofa, and kept his expression on.

"Azu Turan, are you still used to it?" Seeing Lin Jian sitting on the sofa, Lin Mo nodded and turned his gaze back to the screen, but asked instead of turning on the sound effect.

"It's not easy, but I'm trying my best to adapt." Lin Jian felt much more relieved at this time, and it seemed that the brother wanted to know about his sister's recent situation.

"I heard about your physical fitness test results, and you did well." Lin Mo nodded, and then said, "How is your body?"

"There's nothing wrong with my body, I'm very used to it." Lin Jian answered after thinking about it, and added after thinking for a while: "There are still some things I can't remember." After she finished speaking, she looked at Lin Mo's reaction a little nervously, and sure enough Seeing that person frown slightly.

"Really." Seeing Lin Jian's sizing up, Lin Mo pursed his lips, stretched his brows, and turned his eyes back to the screen.

The room was cold again, and even the gorgeous battle on the screen could not calm Lin Jian down to watch it. It was really uncomfortable. Thinking of Angelina's words before going home, Lin Jian couldn't help but turn over in his heart. Roll your eyes, if you live with this kind of person for the rest of your life, you will be suffocated to death.The slander is the slander, Lin Jian finally couldn't help it after sitting on the couch with Lin Mo for nearly 10 minutes, "Is this a real scene of the battlefield?"

"No, it's not, this is just an exercise in the blue galaxy ahead a few months, a virtual battlefield."

"So that's how it is." Lin Jian heaved a sigh of relief. In such a big war scene, it would be too prodigal if it was an actual confrontation exercise. These warships alone need so much financial support.

"A real war is a hundred times crueler than this." Lin Mo's voice sounded a little distracted, and Lin Jian was taken aback, "The use of directional air bombs and engineering ships is not allowed in the exercise, and at the same time, the forces on both sides There is also a very detailed understanding, so the battle damage is very small."

Is this still small?Lin Jian watched silently as the battleships on the screen were searched and sunk one after another. Some of them swung sharply at the moment of being hit and hit the battleships around them, causing several battleships to be damaged at the same time.

"During the past six months, I have thought about something." After a brief silence, Lin Mo spoke again, but what he said this time surprised Lin Jian: "I think maybe it wasn't the reason why you chose the military academy. That’s right, I always thought that you didn’t have the ability to choose your own life, so I let you go to the military academy and become a soldier on your own initiative, just like what your father expected, just like Lin Zi and Lin Hong. But, You have been different from them since you were a child, and I don't know if the choice I made for you is the right one."

"This..." Lin Jian felt at a loss, she didn't know how to answer at all.

"You will be full next month. Now that you are an adult, you should have the right to choose your own life path. I was a little worried about your appearance before, so I agree with my father's choice to let you enter the army. At least my father and we can I have taken care of you, but now I think you have grown up, Gran told me about your situation in the past six months, so I think you should give back your right to choose your own life."

Seeing the warm smile on Lin Mo's cold and stern face, Lin Jian couldn't believe his eyes, he was smiling, which made Lin Jian feel strongly uncomfortable, what does he mean by this?It turned out that when the family asked her to go to the military academy, they didn't expect her to make great military exploits like her brothers and sisters, but because she was a scumbag and could be easily taken care of in the future.After finally digesting this depressing fact, Lin Jian felt a little warmth in his heart. It seems that this family is not cold and harsh to the original Lin Jian, but there are still family members hidden under this appearance. helplessness and warmth.Lin Jian was a little moved.

"I am very satisfied with the current direction of my life, and I have no intention of changing it at the moment." Lin Jian paused before answering. After seeing Lin Momo's sincere gaze, he added: "This is the truth. In the future, I will And it will prove it with performance.”

There was a slight surprise on Lin Mo's face, with thoughtful emotions in his eyes, and he nodded: "It's good, but if it's really like this, I think my father may regret it. The army is a very hard place for a serious man. He is always strict, but it is different for you. He just wants you to have an easy life. But since you have chosen this way, I hope you can stick to it, the way Although it may not be smooth, you will get a lot if you go down. There are many things that you can't get from other places except the army."

"For example, a deep friendship?" Lin Jian asked following Lin Mo's words, and she saw a faint smile on his face.

"Yes."

After talking with Lin Mo for a while, Lin Jian felt that her nervousness when facing him gradually disappeared. This man was just not good at expressing his love. concerns.After thinking that he understood a little bit, Lin Jian thought about it and asked out the doubts in his heart.

"Well, I've always been a little confused." Seeing Lin Mo's questioning gaze, Lin Jian asked what was still in his mind: "The girl in my dormitory talked about her brother and showed me her brother. A game with you that year. I heard that the commander of the game at that time was Granshire, why did the person who graduated with No.1 not enter the army, and lost the qualification to inherit the earl?"

After asking, Lin Jian saw Lin Mo's downcast gaze, and his heart tightened. Is this something that shouldn't be asked? Granshire is Lin Mo's friend, and these seem to involve his privacy. not too good.Sure enough, Lin Jian saw Lin Mo raised his hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows.

"These things are some of Gran's secrets, it's best for you to ask him himself."

"En." Lin Jian nodded, feeling a little abrupt.

"It's just..." Lin Mo hesitated for a moment before saying slowly, "Gran is a very good person, but he is not suitable for you."

Lin Jian looked up at Lin Mo unexpectedly, and saw the complicated expression on his face.

From this point of view, Granshire does have some unknown secrets.
