Not Cold [Interstellar] - Chapter 18
When the sky was dark, Zhong Yue had to get up no matter how much he gave up. With his military order, it is not easy to sneak back, and he must rush back within the specified time.
As soon as Zhong Yue moved, Ke Wei on the same bed could feel it. When he was standing next to the bed in military uniform, he lowered his head and saw that Ke Wei, who was lying on the bed, had already opened his eyes.
“Wake you up?”
“No, I almost woke up.”
Both of them stayed up all night last night, and Zhong Yue knew it well, but didn’t break it.
Ke Wei asked him: “You want to go back to the army?”
Zhong Yue nodded and looked at Ke Wei silently while he buttoned his shirt.
Ke Wei suffered a sudden change and stayed up all night with a haggard look on his face. When he looked at Zhong Yue, his expression was faint. If it hadn’t been for Zhong Yue to wake up and hear his muttering, he would never be so passionate that he thought Ke Wei would not let him leave.
The clock looked at Ke Wei more, but wanted to uncover his calm mask and see what was hidden in his soul.
“You sleep for a while, and when you wake up, contact Xuanmian. I will ask him to take you to the apartment he arranged for you to get familiar with the environment.”
“it is good.”
“Don’t worry about enrolling, take a few days off and wait until you want to pass.”
“Yes.”
“The wound on your leg hasn’t healed, and the wound on your heart hasn’t healed. You can’t use crutches. If you insist on walking by yourself… I have a robot in my house that will take you out.”
“thanks.”
Zhong Yue looked at Ke Wei, who agreed to whatever he ordered, worried in his heart. He couldn’t let go of Ke Wei, and was about to return to the army soon. He didn’t know how long it would take to leave. He always wanted to prepare for Ke Wei before leaving.
“If you lack something, just buy it… By the way, you just changed your personal terminal. There should be no money in the newly bound account.”
Ke Wei gave a low “um”, as if he didn’t care about this issue at all.
He allowed Zhong Yue to take away his personal terminal. After a while, he waited for Zhong Yue to set it up before returning it to him: “That’s fine. You can buy anything you lack.”
Zhong Yue finally didn’t know what else to say.
He wanted to stay, staying on the planet Ai Bino, staying by Ke Wei’s side. But the Zerg repeatedly violated the border, he must return to the army to stand by on the front line, ready to attack at any time.
He looked at Ke Weihun’s disobedience, and suddenly regretted it—it was too hasty, he shouldn’t have told Ke Wei’s yesterday.
However, Zhong Yue felt that he had no right to make this decision on behalf of Ke Wei and conceal the news that Jin Ran had died.
He was just regretful and couldn’t have more time to accompany Ke Wei.
“General Zhong.” Ke Wei interrupted his thoughts softly: “I wish you triumph soon.”
When he said this sentence, his voice was not loud, but his tone revealed an unspeakable determination. Zhong Yue had just put on his coat and was thinking about how to say goodbye to him, but he didn’t want Ke Wei to open his mouth first.
Ke Wei was wearing a white pajamas, sitting on the bed and watching Zhong Yue steadily.
Zhong Yue suddenly felt that Ke Wei’s firm “early triumph” was not so much for Zhong Yue, but for himself.
Ke Wei seemed to be telling himself that he would come back soon…so he didn’t need to panic or fear for him.
Zhong Yue stared at him for a moment without saying a word, then suddenly walked to the bedside, and he made a move that Ke Wei did not expect.
He leaned over, kissed Ke Wei’s eyes lightly, rubbed a handful of Ke Wei’s hair, and said softly, “Wait for me to come back.”
Zhong Yue finally stopped staying, he strode out of his house, but closed the door lightly.
The electronic lock at the hallway turned, and the sound of the final lock came out empty. Ke Wei sat for a long time before he was sure that he had really left.
Ke Wei closed his eyes, cold fingers, and nostalgic stroked the eyes that had just been kissed by Zhong Yue.
He faced the empty room and sighed: “Zhong Yue…”
At this moment, his unprecedented desire to leave with Zhong Yue and return to the army.
He wanted to see Zhong Yue, every day, every minute, every second.
It’s just that he now doesn’t have this qualification.
The military has strict regulations. Those who can board a warship must be soldiers with legal status and qualifications. Except for special circumstances, scientists will be allowed to board the ship, and these scientists must undergo the most stringent investigation and approval.
After graduating from the Imperial High Military Academy in his previous life, he had the qualifications to enter the army. Coupled with Zhong Yue’s secretive management, once he graduated, he directly entered the Second Army where Zhong Yue was.
The more his clock was appointed to the commander of the legion, he covered the sky with one hand in the second legion. Ke Wei was assigned to Zhong Yue’s main ship, and found that their rooms were arranged very close, and they could always rush together for meals. Even duty was in the same time period, and there were many opportunities to meet—even if they were responsible. The tasks are not crossed at all, and Zhong Yue will also find ways to create opportunities to appear in front of him, screaming his presence every day.
Rather than as it is now, he can only watch Zhong Yue leave for a distant galaxy, and wait for a long time for Zhong Yue to return shortly in a few months.
The status of him and Zhong Yue is too unequal, so that even if he meets Zhong Yue, he does not have any initiative and right to speak. He could only rely on Zhong Yue to read a little bit of affection, and during the army’s shift, he came to the remote planet of Ai Bino to see him.
The room is no longer empty, and even the temperature left by the last clock on the bed is gone.
Ke Wei slowly cleaned up the room, unwilling to stay any longer, and left Zhong Yue’s residence.
On the busy personal terminal of Xuanmian, a message from Ke Wei popped up. Ke Wei asked him where he should report.
Xuan Mian responded quickly: “Come to the Central Laboratory.”
Zhong Yue gave Ke Wei’s robot a lot of strength. Before Zhong Yue left, he had already adjusted it into a movable seat and ran into the street with Ke Wei, who was inconvenient.
Ke Wei studied the city map of Ebino for a while and got a rough idea of the city’s plan. He directed the little robot to take the city’s fast track and showed him at the front entrance of the Central Laboratory in only ten minutes.
I have to say that although Xuanmian is a bit dull as a human being, he is still very efficient in doing things. When Ke Wei walked into the entrance, Xuan Mian had already opened the qualification for him. After bioscanning confirmed his identity information, he directly opened the passage for him.
When Ke Wei went in, it was quite a visual impact to see hundreds of scientists busy.
The circular hall has an open space and sufficient lighting. There are hundreds of optical brains. The optical brains share data calculation and transmission at the speed of light. From time to time, you can see the golden light condensed into thin lines, jumping and flickering between the optical brains. .
There are more than a dozen passages outside the rotunda. Researchers hurriedly passed by. It can be seen that in addition to this main hall, there are other laboratories of considerable specifications in the central laboratory.
In the main hall where people came and went, Ke Wei easily found Xuan Mian. Xuan Mian is sitting in the middle office. This position tells everyone clearly his status here.
Xuan Mian didn’t see Ke Wei, because he seemed to be scorched by what was in front of him. It was not until half an hour later that he saw Ke Wei waiting outside.
“I’m sorry, there are a lot of things at hand.” Xuan Mian rubbed his forehead tiredly: “I haven’t noticed that you are here. Come in.”
Xuan Mian opened the door for him, and the little robot ran in quickly with Ke Wei.
Ke Wei slowly moved from the robot to the seat in the office. Xuan Mian looked at the robot and thought thoughtfully: “This robot looks familiar…”
The robot deformed upon hearing the sound, and changed from a moving chair back to its original appearance.
“This seems to belong to the boss, how could it be…” Xuan Mian shifted his suspicious gaze to Ke Wei, and suddenly realized that his face blushed: “Oh-I understand! I won’t ask.”
Ke Wei didn’t see the joy or anger on his face, but said flatly: “Is there anything I can help here?”
Xuan Mian was a little confused about Ke Wei’s character, but felt that he didn’t know why he didn’t see each other for a day, and this person looked even colder.
Thinking of his subtle relationship with his boss, and even the tone of his speech to Ke Wei, he was more polite than before: “The school that you reported to will start a month later. If you are fine during this period, just come over here, you With such a high source of consciousness, can you help me catch some anti-hydrogen atoms?”
Ke Wei nodded: “Okay, I can start anytime.”
