Su Ran is slowly raising his head.
The earth is getting smaller in his field of vision.
Jiayuan is once again far away from the earth, but this time Su Ran has little anxiety. The Xinjing fleet may not be strong enough, but great changes have taken place since the first exchange of fire with nearest star on New Year's day.
At this moment, they can really be called the so-called cosmic fleet.
Moreover, this is not only the so-called technical improvement, but also the psychological and conceptual improvement.
They experienced a real and tragic battle of the stars and survived.
Now the new Beijing fleet has long been different from before.
The Xinjing fleet is sailing silently.
The target galaxy has been silent.
The Xinjing fleet used the equipment in the ground factory of the third star of the target galaxy to monitor space. In their eyes, the fleet in the high altitude of the third star's orbit did not change, but still contracted the defense array. Obviously, Lin Yuandong still had no harvest.
On the other hand, three new battle groups and a large number of reconnaissance aircraft and exploration ships previously deployed in the current area are quietly exploring and exploring the position of that spatial coordinate without trace.
Su ran should first confirm whether the spatial coordinates really point to the nearest star civilization.
But it's best not to be discovered by the neighboring civilization.
Moreover, in the solar system, Su Ran is also "checking" the whole galaxy to avoid anything sneaking in.
……
Target galaxy.
Tong miaoqiu didn't go to the medical department, but returned to his room.
Li Hexuan still wanted to accompany her, but she was driven away by the woman.
Li Hexuan had no choice but to take the lead in returning to the bridge and quietly sent a message to representative Jin to let Tong miaoqiu's good friends come and have a look.
Jin Zhiying soon came here.
She really woke up from a coma more than ten days ago. Recently, she has been carrying out rehabilitation training and psychological counseling. Therefore, she has not joined the work of the fleet for the time being. She belongs to one of the few idle people in the Xinjing fleet.
Therefore, after hearing that something had happened to his good friend, our representative Jin quickly rushed over.
Tong miaoqiu didn't shut Jin Zhiying out. She opened the door and welcomed her in.
Jin Zhiying looked at Tong miaoqiu's pale face and couldn't help saying, "what's the matter? My captain Tong? "
Tong miaoqiu smiled bitterly, shook her head and said, "nothing, I'm just a little uncomfortable."
"If you feel uncomfortable, you should drink more hot water." Jin Zhiying poured Tong miaoqiu a cup of hot water and said, "but I don't think you look uncomfortable."
Tong miaoqiu raised her head slightly surprised and looked at Jin Zhiying.
"I'm a little roundworm in your stomach." The representative of Jin gave out some tasteless laughter.
She has a natural good face, but her thoughts, behavior and style are always quite happy, and her temperament is completely incompatible with her face.
Tong miaoqiu looked at her like this and couldn't help smiling: "thank you."
"What's the point?" Jin Zhiying sat side by side with Tong miaoqiu along the edge of the bed, but the smile on her face gradually faded. She looked at her companion with some worry, "can you talk to me? What's the matter with you? "
Tong miaoqiu stared at her and shook her head slightly. After a moment, she said slowly with some hesitation: "I don't know. I had passed all the captain's psychological assessments, but... But..."
"But in the face of the enemy, you still feel fear, don't you?"
Tong miaoqiu was slightly stunned.
This is the second time that representative Jin, who has always been silly, guessed her idea.
In a trance, she felt that the friend in front of her seemed to have become another person.
But she suddenly realized that she didn't seem to see her so serious.
A person who never looks so reliable, heartless and out of tune may have more heart than anyone.
Tong miaoqiu pursed her lips slightly and smiled slowly.
I don't know why, just these simple words, she felt much better.
She straightened her scattered hair and said slowly, "yes, I still feel scared. Even though I have passed the psychological test, I still feel scared.
"However, I don't know what I'm afraid of. Maybe I'm afraid of death - isn't it ridiculous for me, who was a mercenary a long time ago? Maybe so before, but now it's different. I'm not alone. I am a captain. I control the life and death of countless people, and countless people who trust me, like Kim represents you. I'm not afraid to die, but I'm afraid to take you to die
"Of course, maybe I'm also afraid of the starry sky and those terrible alien civilizations. To be honest, I didn't read much science fiction before. I didn't know that the starry sky was like this. Long ago, I foolishly thought that the starry sky might be beautiful, just like the description of the starry sky in countless childhood cartoons and movies. It was a big family, Civilizations discover each other and then form a larger civilization. Different creatures can live under the same sky and prosper together to create a beautiful world that doesn't look very advanced. "
"But the reality is not like this." Jin Zhiying was slightly silent and said, "you know this better than me. Civilization always needs to progress. The higher the level, the development of more powerful weapons is no longer an important thing. The real progress of civilization is the pursuit of each group, and the difference of culture is difficult to make the two civilizations truly connected, Only survival... Is what every creature must understand and follow. "
Tong miaoqiu lowered her head slightly and didn't respond.
Jin Zhiying smiled and said, "but these are not important. My captain Tong, I'm not afraid of death. In fact, you took me aboard the narcissus. I'm so excited. I think everyone will think so——
"Everyone who stands behind you and on the same warship with you will not stand there because of fear of death or other reasons, because they are willing to give their lives to you.
"Since we are all willing to give our lives to you, what else can you fear?
"Just do the right thing.
"The universe may not be so beautiful, but our home is beautiful enough and our civilization is gorgeous enough.
"We don't need to change anything. We just need to move forward. That's enough."
Outside the side window, the light of the star shines into the small room. Tong miaoqiu looks at the close representative of Jin, silent for a long time, and slowly smiles with relief.
