Marshal’s Cannon Fodder Spouse [Transmigration] - Chapter 86
Time passed quickly day after day. In the repetitive and calm days of Interstellar, Nan Zhuxing was still as busy as before, and the progress of the Mecha Research Institute has never slowed down. At the same time, the capital star of the Yetian Empire is still so bustling and lively, where a new banquet will open every few days.
In the past, Duan Hengye’s most well-known identity was not only the dean of the research institute, but also the orphan label of a “scientist adopted by the queen family”.
In fact, the original owner has always maintained a relatively close relationship with the queen family-especially before the marriage. After the marriage, although the original owner has reduced the number of activities related to the queen’s family, he still shows his face in the activities there from time to time.
Calculating carefully, it seems that since Duan Hengye entered “Dumping Interstellar”, he suddenly disconnected from the Queen’s family. Of course, Duan Hengye would often send invitations there, but he would always refuse with various reasons.
But this time, Duan Hengye finally encountered a reason that could not be refused.
The father of the current queen of the Yetian Empire, Duan Hengye’s nominal “adoptive father”, suddenly contracted a sudden illness, and directly contacted Duan Hengye, saying that he wanted to see him.
In this era, “sickness” is a very remote thing for most people, and some people don’t even know how they feel when they are sick. As the father of the queen today, the old duke has been raised with good food and drink all his life. Due to Duan Hengye, the other party’s age has long exceeded the average lifespan of people in the interstellar age.
But no matter how wealthy, no one can resist the laws of nature.
Now that Mr. Duke is suddenly ill, and news of his bad condition has spread throughout the stars. Everyone knows what it means to be sick at this age.
Although Duan Hengye and the Queen’s family no longer communicate in private, the two sides still maintain a superficial peace after all. For many people in the interstellar who don’t know the truth, although Duan Hengye has made great achievements, he still has the label of “good luck being picked up by the first noble family of the empire”.
At the same time that the Queen’s family notified Duan Hengye to return to the genus, they reported the matter on a large scale in their own media. In those reports, they directly accepted the invitation for Duan Hengye.
Although it was a closed event, those reports still mobilized the curiosity of the entire interstellar.
In fact, regardless of whether they release the news in advance, as long as they do not completely tear their faces with the royal family on the bright side, Duan Hengye will always go to this event-after all, it is not a good person who is on the surface with the other party. opportunity.
Just after seeing those large-scale reports that came out at the same time, Duan Hengye’s already tense nerves immediately became more and more sensitive.
The star of the Queen’s family was not close to the research institute at all, and Duan Hengye almost had to pass through most of the realm of the Ye Tian Empire to reach the destination.
For him, this was the longest interstellar voyage since crossing over.
As a top noble family of the Ye Tian Empire, if you want to go to the star of the Queen’s family, you must also follow the strict regulations there. For example, the imperial marshal Meng Jinhuai who had military power could not go there at will. If he wants to be a star in the Queen’s family, he must apply to the other side a few months in advance, or wait for their active invitation.
This time Meng Jinhuai certainly did not receive an invitation, and even according to the laws of the empire, the number of staff around Duan Hengye was reduced.
At this time, Duan Hengye was sitting on his own private starship in accordance with the regulations, and the interior decoration style here was much more comfortable than the military starship. But despite this, Duan Hengye still didn’t mean to relax.
Duan Hengye sat at the office desk next to the window, with a light brain full of data in front of him. What is very abnormal is that as a “workaholic”, Duan Hengye is rarely distracted this time. After reading the documents in front of him for a while, his thoughts couldn’t help flying away.
I don’t know how long it has passed, Duan Hengye’s brain lightly sounded a reminder-it turned out that someone was sending him an application for admission from outside the starship’s lounge.
Taking a look at the time, Duan Hengye stood up from his seat. Now that the starship can reach its destination in only a few hours, he should change his clothes. Not long after clicking the button to open the door, Duan Hengye’s assistant Ye Pu walked in with a robot.
“Professor Duan, this is your dress today.” Ye Pu gently nodded towards Duan Hengye, then glanced at the black formal suit in the robot’s hands. Going to the star of the queen’s family is like going to the capital star, and you need to follow certain norms. Although Duan Hengye didn’t need to wear a formal dress because it was a private event held within the family this time, such an all-black formal suit still made people feel extremely depressing at a glance.
Duan Heng nodded at night, then walked towards the lounge connected to the office with his formal attire. At this time, the suit he was holding was similar to the suit on the earth, but there were some differences. Its style is more rigid, it doesn’t look like it is worn by nobles, but it should belong to some clergy.
Although he didn’t like it, Duan Hengye quickly changed his clothes. With a black suit and a black shirt, he was trapped in the thick darkness.
Looking at himself in the changing mirror, Duan Hengye opened the door and walked out. Duan Hengye and Ye Pu have already been very familiar with them after working for such a long time. Under normal circumstances, two people will chat from time to time between work. But this time, after seeing Duan Hengye’s face which was obviously more serious than before, Ye Pu didn’t talk to him, but just walked out.
The sound insulation of the starship is very good. After Ye Pu and the robot went out, Duan Hengye’s ears were a bit horrible. He stood in the middle of the study for a while, then walked to Guangnao and took a look at the route map.
Because it has gradually approached the Queen’s family to belong to the star, the speed of the starship was restricted, and it slowed down more and more.
Seeing this, Duan Hengye sat back at his table again, and then slowly opened the drawer. In the white space, there are a few silver pearl-sized “buttons” lying quietly. Duan Hengye gently took them out, then rolled up his sleeves.
He picked up those “buttons” and gently pressed them to his wrist. However, in the blink of an eye, the silver “buttons” gave birth to several thin metal vines, which tightly wrapped Duan Hengye’s wrist.
This is the same series of weapons as the “Sleeve Arrow” that Duan Hengye has shown before, but it is smaller in size and more lethal. After setting all the “buttons” in place, Duan Hengye pulled down his sleeves, and then carefully buttoned the cufflinks.
Because this dress is relatively heavy and conservative in style. By this time, from the appearance alone, there was no longer any abnormality in Duan Hengye’s wrist. Although he was a visitor with a special identity, Duan Hengye still had to go through the security check to board the genus star. Now, although the things he wears on his hands look simple, they can easily dodge the most high-end and sophisticated detection instruments in the interstellar–this bit of Hengye has already been tested on Nan Zhuxing. .
Speaking of it, it seems that the more technologically advanced the age, the more people become superstitious about technology. The weapon in Duan Hengye’s hand can escape all special light, but if he touches it directly, he can definitely feel the abnormality. Only in this age, people have long forgotten the role of humans, and instead gave machines an unimaginable sense of trust.
After all the micro weapons were installed, Duan Hengye returned to his position. At this time, it was still a while before the starship reached its destination, but Duan Hengye’s heart finally calmed down.
Just when Duan Hengye was preparing to work in meditation, his optical brain suddenly received a message from Meng Jinhuai.
During this period of time, as long as Hengye and Meng Jinhuai are not on the same planet, they will send messages to each other when they are free. The contents are almost nothing to do with work, but are all daily chores.
As the owner of the Southern Stars, Meng Jinhuai knew better than anyone that Duan Hengye could not refuse this trip this time. But perhaps something unimaginable is that Meng Jinhuai is also the only person around Duan Hengye who has persuaded him. But what is Duan Hengye is that as long as a decision is made, no one can persuade people to move. Although Meng Jinhuai had already made uncharacteristic suggestions that were not in line with the interests of the Southern Stars, Hengye boarded the huge starship flying to the Queen’s star in the last paragraph.
Although the decision has been officially made for a long time, even Duan Hengye is about to reach his destination at this time. But in the news, Meng Jinhuai’s words are still full of concern. Although Meng Jinhuai is not as reticent as Duan Hengye, he is definitely a person who has nothing to do with the word “chat”.
But today, he sent Duan Hengye a lot of information. In addition to my daily routine, there is even the pet of my little nephew.
As an excellent student who has received all-round education in interstellar standards, Meng Jinhuai’s language organization skills are also first-class. At first glance, his tone is very ordinary, but after reading more, he will feel an indescribable warmth between the lines.
Looking at it, Duan Hengye couldn’t help but laugh.
Although Nan Zhuxing could see the real-time location of Duan Hengye, Duan Hengye still shared his coordinates with Meng Jinhuai. It didn’t take long before Duan Hengye received a bunch of reminders from the other party.
Although the speed of the starship was slow, Duan Hengye no longer felt the journey was difficult in this simple communication. It wasn’t until a long time later that a reminder that he was about to reach his destination sounded from the starship, and Duan Hengye then moved his attention away from the light brain.
“If you have any questions, remember to call urgently.” Meng Jinhuai said finally.
The positioning device carried by Duan Hengye also has an emergency call function. After seeing the other party’s message, Duan Hengye couldn’t help but reach out and touch the location of the device. Then, as usual, he returned Meng Jinhuai with an “Hmm.” It seemed that he was not going to the star of the Queen’s family, but as usual, going to the research institute.
The starship finally arrived at its destination. The size of the stars belonging to the Queen’s family is not large. From a high altitude, it looks like a huge garden planet. Although the original owner spent a long time here in his youth, today is the first time Duan Hengye has come to the Queen’s family. Although there is a lot of memory in his brain, everything here is still fresh to him.
Naturally, Duan Hengye also discovered some details that he hadn’t noticed before. For example, in the hemisphere I saw at this time, there were almost no “civilian buildings”. You must know that even the capital star where the royal family is located, there are also large urban settlements…
Duan Hengye’s observation did not last long. As the height of the starship gradually decreased, the scene in front of him became larger and larger. But for a while, Duan Hengye could no longer see the boundaries of the planet. In front of him is a mountain-like palace-like building. If he hadn’t been in it right now, Duan Hengye would even think that the scenery in front of him was all composed of cg.
Thinking about it carefully, the original owner could see the same scenery when he came to the Queen’s family to belong to the star, but he had never paid special attention to it.
Duan Hengye’s thinking didn’t last long. After the starship landed steadily, he followed the procedure. Because today is a private event, not many people are on the starship docking pad.
Seeing Duan Hengye coming down, a man in a gray formal suit came over. He bowed slightly towards Duan Hengye, and then said, “Hello Professor Duan.”
“Hello.” Duan Hengye also gently nodded towards him.
Now that it has officially reached the star of the Queen’s family, all members of the Southern Stars except Duan Hengye are not able to move around at will. Including Ye Pu, they were all left on the starship.
Immediately afterwards, the grey-clothed man who had spoken earlier said to Duan Hengye: “Sorry, Professor Duan, the following is the routine security check.” Then he started to use the special light beam on his brain to shine towards Duan Hengye.
Although the words were still polite and polite, the person’s voice just fell off, and before Duan Hengye could react, he turned on the security beam. In an instant, a dazzling blue light curtain fell on Duan Hengye’s body, and he couldn’t help but frown.
As Duan Hengye’s assistant, Ye Pu also saw this scene from a distance on the starship. However, knowing the special circumstances of today, although he was extremely dissatisfied after seeing it, he still didn’t say anything.
Although I know that the thing on my wrist has been tested more than once, there must be no problem. But when the beam of light suddenly fell on him, Duan Hengye couldn’t help but get nervous. His fingers bend slightly toward the palm of his hand, and then slowly rubbed the cloth on the cuff with his fingertips.
Duan Hengye’s movements were very hidden, and no one at the scene noticed. After he stretched his fingers, the light finally closed. Seeing that there was nothing unusual about Duan Hengye, the property staff once again made a “please” action to Duan Hengye, and then took him to the levitator that was parked aside.
At this time, Duan Hengye was moving away from her starship step by step, and the nervousness at first due to the security check stabilized during this unusual journey. Duan Hengye walked onto the levitator accompanied by a staff member of the Queen’s family. If others were to be seen, 80% of them would feel embarrassed by being “escorted”. But at this moment, in the eyes of Ye Pu in the distance, Duan Hengye’s figure was still so calm.
As the staff around Duan Hengye, Ye Pu is extremely nervous today. But after seeing Duan Hengye’s calm look, he finally wasn’t as nervous as he was at the beginning. Seeing the levitator take off, Ye Pu finally returned to the starship. Although they cannot enter the genus at will, it does not mean that they can rest during this time.
Ye Pu turned around and walked to another cabin of the starship, and then said to the staff inside: “Now we will start detailed monitoring.”
In fact, what Meng Jinhuai didn’t tell Duan Hengye was that at the same time he agreed to call the other party to the Queen’s genus, he also gave orders to Ye Pu and the rest of the Southern Stars staff—if necessary, he could directly violate the rules and walk out. Starship.
…
After all, this is the place where the original owner has been here more than once. After the levitator flew for a certain distance, he felt that the surrounding scenery became more and more familiar. Duan Hengye’s eyes have been staring out the window, watching the green plants or buildings that are constantly flying by.
The staff member who boarded the levitator with Duan Hengye didn’t stop talking after coming up. While looking at the scenery below, the man kept reminding Duan Hengye with words–this is the place where he lived for a short time.
In fact, these words seem to be “close to” on the surface, but in fact they are also a “threat.”
——This staff member in grey clothes is reminding Duan Hengye over and over again about his involvement with the Queen’s stars unknown to the interstellar, as well as the stigmatized “undercover” status.
Duan Hengye ignored the other party’s words, although in the eyes of most people who are unfamiliar with Duan Hengye, he has always been as if he was not very concerned about everything and loved to answer. However, the contempt in Hengye’s eyes during this period of time provokes the staff who has been chattering to remind him.
As a staff member of a top nobleman, he has always been held up high, and he rarely receives such a look. So just when the levitator was about to reach its destination, the staff member finally couldn’t help but raise his tone, reminding Duan Hengye in his ear: “Professor Duan. Although you have been an adult for more than a time, and you have left the family. But. Don’t be fooled by the admiration in front of you, so that you forget your original identity.”
…Sought after?
… the original identity?
Although the other party’s sentence is not long, every magical word is on Duan Hengye’s angry point.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand, as a traditional nobleman. In essence, they look down on Duan Hengye’s “sought after” for his mecha achievements. Although the world has developed into the interstellar age, this is yet another traditional family that stretches for thousands of years. In the eyes of family members and even the surrounding staff, Duan Hengye’s “sought after” is undoubtedly cheap. Only a family like them should be naturally loved by Yetian citizens.
As for the latter sentence, it is undoubtedly reminding Duan Hengye that he was once “adopted” by this family. But it is a pity that Duan Hengye is no longer the one who has lost his memory and was deeply brainwashed. This sentence did not make Duan Hengye “be careful”, but it reminded the royal family again.
So Duan Hengye glanced at him coldly, his eyes were almost like a cold wind mixed with ice balls. After seeing this, the staff couldn’t help but panic, but soon he stabilized his mind and said to Duan Hengye: “You…”
Before the staff had finished speaking, Duan Hengye interrupted the other party, “It’s here.” The man in black formal wear looked at the scenery outside the window and said coldly.
Upon seeing this, although the staff was still upset, he had to let out a sigh of relief, and then stepped off the levitator before Duan Hengye.
“Sir just regained a little energy. After entering, Professor Duan please pay attention to his words and deeds.” After finishing speaking, he retreated from Duan Hengye’s side.
Duan Hengye gently touched his sleeve again, and finally walked slowly towards the house. As an old noble family, the buildings here are also very old. Although relying on StarCraft’s powerful repair technology, the interior of the building still looks brand new at this time, but the old structure designed many years ago still made Duan Hengye feel a strong sense of oppression.
Because of the patients living in the house, Duan Hengye asked about an unpleasant medicine smell before he took a few steps. His footsteps echoed in the corridor, looking very lonely.
Finally, Duan Hengye walked to the dark red wooden door at the end of the corridor, and pushed it open without hesitation. Suddenly the bitterness of the medicine expanded on Duan Hengye’s nose again, and by the way, a hoarse male voice came out from inside——
“…Is it Duan Hengye?” He asked.
Duan Hengye walked into the house and closed the door reflexively. He saw that not far in front, there was a weak man lying opposite him. The man is surrounded by smoke, apparently delivering a mist of medicine. During this period of time, Duan Hengye has learned a lot of common sense of interstellar life, for example, he knows that this kind of governance is only used when the patient is dying.
The man’s eyes were half open and he looked very weak.
“It’s me, Lord Duke.” Duan Hengye stood there and saluted the man.
After hearing Duan Hengye’s voice, the person in the hospital bed finally opened his eyes with great effort, and then said slowly: “Sure enough, he is already an adult…” After that, the man struggled towards the position of Duan Hengye. Reaching out his hand, “Come here and let me see.” He said slowly.
