I, from 1000 years ago

Chapter 67

"Why do we have to observe the control area of ​​the subspace jump station on a rare night after many damn days of boring life on the ship?" With the takeaway from the restaurant in hand, Morris While complaining, she followed Lin Jian's footsteps.He found that he couldn't understand Lin Jian's thoughts more and more. After walking out of the spaceport, almost everyone ran towards the living area of ​​this small artificial celestial body, but only the two of them went to that damned celestial body on such a night. control area.

"I didn't ask you to come, you can join those boys, don't you always like the ancient game of table tennis?" Lin Jian didn't care about Morris's complaints, and walked at his own pace, " Besides, your level is very good, if you go, you will definitely win, why come with me here."

"Oh, forget it, with those boring guys, I will also become a boring person." Hearing Lin Jian's suggestion, Morris rolled his eyes.

Entering the subspace jump control area requires identification and authentication. Basically, anyone who is allowed to enter the fortress will be allowed to enter, as long as your pass can be identified.

Lin Jian and Morris basically entered the control area without hindrance. It was late at night, and most of the areas were filled with robots, and all the staff except those working in the control room had already returned home from get off work.At this time, the still bright hall seemed a little deserted.

"There are still people hanging around here." Morris bit the food in his hand, and saw a person dressed in the same clothes as them not far away.Lin Jian looked up, and it turned out to be Xia Lifenna.

"Why are you here? I thought you would be at the supply fortress." Seeing that Xia Lifenna had also noticed the two of them, Lin Jian took the initiative to say hello.

"Supply fortresses can be seen everywhere, but subspace jumping stations are hard to see, especially large space stations like α725 that have the ability to jump outside." Charifina raised the recorder in her hand, "Building a jumping station The cost is more than ten times that of building a supply fort."

The three were talking, the door of the hall opened again, and a large group of people poured in.It looks like someone who is going to space jump.Because it involves entry and exit issues, people and ships in the α725 subspace jump station must enter the jump spaceport separately.Ships are subject to full ship scans, and personnel are subject to identity verification.

Lin Jian and the others made way for the passage in the middle to let the group of people pass.

This group of people seemed to have a total of 100 people. It was strange that although they looked tired, they looked serious, and even looked a little nervous.Lin Jian stood on the outside of the passage, watching them enter the hall and walk towards the identity verification area of ​​the control center.

"Why are the clothes these people wear so strange?" This group of people are all wearing long robes with bulging pockets under the robes, as if each of them has a belt around their waist that looks like seven or eight circles, which makes them look Bloated a lot.Seeing such a weird outfit, Lin Jian asked strangely.

"It is said that the people who were rescued before being besieged by pirate ships were merchants from Mankila, and the people in Mankila are dressed like this." Charifena replied, "there is a place where the light is several times that of Anchester Star all the year round, so they Wearing robes all the year round, although their living quarters are under artificial domes, they are sometimes exposed to starlight after all. Moreover, there is a plant on the main planet of the Mankira galaxy, which usually curls up in In the soil, once humans or animals pass by their habitat, they will suddenly drill out of the soil and attack them at the same level as their height. Basically, their height is equivalent to about the waist of an adult, so the Mankira galaxy People wear waist protection all year round, and they have special controllers for waist."

"You know so much." Charifina's detailed explanation surprised Lin Jian. The Mankira galaxy is quite far away from the capital galaxy, and it is extremely low-key. Although the geographical environment and other things will be included in the social science materials, but on weekdays There are very few people here who know these things.From this point of view, it is by no means accidental that Charifna became a top student in the Logistics Department of Draconde Starship Academy.

Just as she was thinking, a crash interrupted Lin Jian's thoughts.It turned out that a person walking on the outside of the crowd accidentally bumped into a trash can in the passage.When the trash can fell to the ground, it made a crisp sound, which also made Lin Jian's mind tremble.

The person who bumped into the trash can seemed a little nervous, he sharply picked up the trash can that had just fallen to the ground, and carefully looked at the woman walking beside him.

The woman glanced at him sideways, and Lin Jian slapped her on the side, as well as her delicate red lips.

As if feeling the staring gaze, the woman turned her head to look at Lin Jian. After seeing Lin Jian's face, she raised her eyebrows as if surprised and smiled.

"Is she smiling at you?" Morris frowned, the woman's smile looked like a chill that gave people goosebumps, and when she saw Lin Jian's expression, it was as if she knew Lin Jian.

"Yes." Lin Jian watched the woman disappear into the passage, she turned her head to look at Morris and Charifina, "I feel something is wrong."

"Me too, they are too quiet, such a large group of people, they don't even say a word." Charifna nodded and replied.

"If a group of people are like this, either they are a disciplined force with strict discipline, or..." Morris paused, watching the group of people disappear into the passage, "or they are very nervous."

"That's right." Lin Jian nodded, "There are two more suspicious things. First, since the people in the Mankira Galaxy are under the tension of being attacked at the waist all the year round, they will definitely be interested in things that are close to the waist height. Very sensitive, and the person just now bumped into such an obvious trash can. Second, the Mankira galaxy is exposed to strong starlight all year round, don’t you think their skin looks a little too white?" Several years ago Her police career made her extremely sensitive to these subtle things, and there were many doubts in the process of passing this group of people.Just like Xia Lifenna said, for a team of hundreds of ordinary people, they are too quiet.

"I dare say there must be something wrong with them." Charifna walked to the middle of the passage, looked at the corner where the group of people disappeared, and then looked back at Lin Jian and Morris, "How about it, do you want to follow?"

"If there is really a problem, if it is found out, it will be silenced." Although she was extremely suspicious of those people, Lin Jian was very aware of the possible consequences of doing so, even if she and Morris had a lot of problems. Strong hand-to-hand combat ability, but in case the opponent has hot weapons, no matter how capable the two of them are, it is impossible to defeat a hundred people with their hands.At that time, let alone defeated, it is not certain whether the whole body can be left behind.

"Then let them go?" Morris looked at Lin Jian with a frown. To be honest, the woman's eyes and smile on Lin Jian just now made people very uncomfortable.

"I've already reported this to Captain Lant. Let's see what he says later." While Morris was speaking, Lin Jian sent a message to Captain Lant who led them through the communicator on his wrist.The three waited for a while, but did not receive a reply from Captain Lant. Lin Jian simply dialed the other party's communicator, but the communicator showed that the other party could not receive the signal at this time.For a moment, the three of them looked at each other in blank dismay.

Things are obviously very unusual. The communicator transmits signals through a high-sensitivity repeater. Basically, the reason why the communicator shows that it cannot receive signals is that the communicator is destroyed.Captain Lant, as the supreme officer of this fleet, would never allow himself to be in a situation where he could not be contacted.

After contacting Captain Lante to no avail, Lin Jian called another lieutenant in the team one after another, but the result was that the signal was also unacceptable.

"In retrospect, it seems that after the few of us walked out of the spaceport, we did not see the fleet personnel coming out of the supply fortress." Charifna recalled the previous situation. The interns left the port first because they had no supply work, and the fleet's The staff will not leave the spaceport until the fleet is resupplied.

"What should we do now?" Morris turned his head to look at Lin Jian. He didn't know when he was used to asking Lin Jian for his opinion.

"My point is still not to act rashly. What we have to do now is to contact the defense system of this fortress. Even if the personnel of our fleet are under control, the guard team of this fortress will not be under control. If it is If that's the case, then I suggest we find a place to hide." Lin Jian calmly analyzed the current situation.

"If we can enter the main control room, then we can activate the early warning system. Subspace jumping stations will have an early warning system. If we are fast enough to activate the early warning system before they enter the main control room, then the robot will Control them in no man's land." Apparently, Charifna did not agree with Lin Jian's opinion. "If we keep procrastinating like this, when they enter the main control room, no matter what they want to do, we can only watch, because they will have hostages in their hands!"

"What if they just want to leave the country? In this case, they may not harm the hostages!" In an unfamiliar environment, people always feel a sense of tension, especially Lin Jian has an unimaginable sense of strangeness about this era.

"The duty of a soldier is to protect the country and its citizens! Even though we are only military students and not formal soldiers, why should we just stand by and watch? Aren't you ashamed of your thoughts?"

Xia Lifenna's soft reprimand stunned Lin Jian. The changes of the times and the values ​​produced by the differences in the system once again stood between her and the people of this era.In an instant, her mind flashed the night when she met Charifena for the first time, the group of young students of Draconde Starfleet Academy at that time had the elegant but pure passion mixed with the complex era. It touched her heart deeply.

However, the imprint of the era 1000 years ago has been deeply imprinted in her soul, and the hearts of people living in that peaceful but impetuous era have been corroded by burnout.On the surface, they are filled with righteous indignation but their hearts are numb. They seldom carry out self-redemption but shift all responsibility to others.

At this moment, Lin Jian looked at Morris in a daze, only to see him curl his lips and shrug his shoulders.

"Unfortunately, I can't agree with you this time." When he said this, Morris had a rare serious expression on his face, but the serious expression disappeared in a flash and was replaced by disgust "However, I think it's better for me to go alone. Women are a burden at this time."
