Chapter 1388 The Call of the Stars (14)

"Seriously, how long has it been since you took a shower?" On the road in Colorado, Star-Lord Quill looked at the raccoon in the passenger seat with an open eyebrow. He shrugged his nose vigorously, not without disgust.

Said: "I feel like your body is fermented and has a strange smell."

"It's worse than that. Maybe I just got drunk in the bar last night and was covered in vomit."

"Ugh! Damn it, get out of the car quickly, I'm going to give you a good rinse in the lake next to you!" Quill stepped on the accelerator and almost slapped the unbelted raccoon onto the windshield, but even if it didn't really happen

It flew up and Rocket Raccoon's head hit the car hard.

"Oh my God!" Rocket Raccoon cursed in a low voice in a language that Star-Lord could not understand, and then said: "I lied to you, I am a raccoon. Raccoons love to be clean the most. Don't you know?"

"No, you have to get out of the car. I have to check your hygiene and make sure you don't have infectious diseases or anything... Oh my God, is there anything like the Wildlife Inspection and Quarantine Law here? Come and save me.

.”

Quill got out of the car without saying a word. He followed the front of the car and wanted to go around to the passenger side, but Rocket Raccoon quickly jumped onto the driver's seat, ran under the seat, stepped on the accelerator hard, and the car "

"Whoosh" and rushed out.

"Hey, my car! Wait, don't run, you damn raccoon!"

A few minutes later, Star-Lord Quill was holding the front hood of the car and breathing heavily, while Rocket Raccoon sat in the driver's seat and picked his ears and said, "Who are you calling a wild animal that has not been inspected and quarantined?"

"You're cruel!" Quill gave Rocket Raccoon a middle finger, opened the driver's door, threw the raccoon into the passenger seat, sat on it again and said, "Stop it, we have to get there before dark.

Let’s go to the NASA base in Colorado, where Lisa is still waiting for us.”

As soon as he closed the car door, Quil wrinkled his nose again and said, "Whether it's for people or wild animals, maintaining hygiene is good for your health. I'll ask them to find a place to give you a bath."

There was actually a kind of concern in his tone, which made Rocket Raccoon turn his head away awkwardly. He discovered that Star-Lord Peter Quill is actually a very common kind of nice guy with a sharp mouth and a soft heart. He seems careless and cynical.

, also behaves a bit stupidly, but can always express concern for others inadvertently without making others feel panic or embarrassment.

Rocket Raccoon held his two little paws and looked at the endless road in front of the car and said: "I have a hunch that you can understand it as the intuition of the beast. I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. Are you really ready?

"

Quill's hand on the steering wheel tightened, but he still pretended not to care and said: "I have been in the interstellar society for so many years, what dangers have I not seen? Have I told you? This notorious interstellar

Pirate leader Yondu can actually be regarded as my adoptive father and master."

Rocket Raccoon's eyes widened. He stared at Quill and said, "God, do you know that he chased me up and down in the past few months, but don't tell me that you still have a share here!"

"Of course not. I have been independent for a long time. Yondu has an extremely bad temper. In addition to cursing and beating people, he only calms down a little when he is drunk. I can't stand him, so after I grow up, I will not plunder.

The team did a great job.”

"I dare say that this is the most correct decision you have ever made." Rocket Raccoon sighed and said: "The interstellar situation is about to be reshuffled. If Asgard wants to join the game and show its sincerity in maintaining interstellar security, it always needs to establish a

Target, who do you think is the most suitable?"

"I don't care if the Reaver dies or not." Quill shook his head and said, "But I know very well. Yondu can't die. Apart from his first-class ability to save lives, who do you think he was working for before? He has no backing.

How could a team of Marauders survive so long?”

One person and one raccoon kept chatting, occasionally revealing some of their views on interstellar society. In this way, the car quickly drove to NASA's space base in Colorado.

Lisa is a very common strong woman with a successful career. Not only is she an employee of NASA, she was even the commander before Quill left the earth.

Seeing this lady again, Quil had mixed feelings. What made him happy was that Lisa had taken good care of herself, which meant that her life in recent years should have been smooth sailing. But what made him feel a little sad was that other people's comments about Lisa

Judging from the name of Sha, she should be married, even have a child, and her face is much older.

Quil and Lisa hugged, and Lisa looked at Quil with red eyes and said, "That's great, Peter, you are still alive. After that incident, I thought you were dead."

"I'm really sorry, Lisa. I shouldn't have been so impulsive. My youth and ignorance made you pay the price for me, but fortunately there is still a chance to make up for everything. I heard that you encountered some troubles. I

I think I can definitely help."

"Stop it, Peter, I never blamed you, but I did encounter some troubles. It would be great if you could help me."

The two of them came to the office while reminiscing about old times. Rocket Raccoon pretended to be Quill's pet and didn't speak during the whole journey. However, Lisa still instinctively saw the difference in his eyes. After entering the office, she focused her gaze on

In Rocket Raccoon's face.

"Your friend?" Lisa asked, looking at the raccoon.

"So be it." Quill nodded slightly. He sat down on the chair, put his hands in front of him, and said: "Thanks to my original impulse, I have been wandering in the interstellar society for a long time. I didn't expect that I

After coming back, the earth has changed so much, and humans have begun to explore interstellar society."

After saying that, Quill looked up and looked at the scene in the office. There were too many weird items here that had never appeared in the era he left.

Lisa lowered her head and said: "When you and Mandalo had a dispute, I know it was not your fault, but the director who was airborne at that time did not want me to get too involved in this matter. I could not change your fate of being fired.

.”

"And you impulsively drove away from the Kree spacecraft and sailed deep into the stars. I can't imagine what kind of danger you went through before you finally returned here, but I have always felt guilty."

"So Peter, if the situation wasn't really serious, I would never ask you for help."

"Of course, I understand you, Lisa. If you weren't too self-reliant and didn't ask for help for everything, then the position of NASA director wouldn't be enough to showcase your talents. I've always felt guilty for interfering with your career, but if

The two of us only feel guilty, so don’t do anything else.”

Quill pretended to be joking, and he also succeeded in making Lisa laugh. She shook her head and said: "I am not so emotional when facing other people. Okay, we really have to talk about business."

Lisa smiled, walked to sit across from him, and said, "The good news is that due to the development of aerospace technology, I also have a broader career space."

Lisa handed over a business card, and after Quil took it, he found that the title on it read "Chief, NASA Accident Report Investigation Section."

Quill raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't remember that the space agency has this section. Is it newly established?"

Lisa nodded and said: "Yes, the development of aerospace technology will inevitably bring more aerospace accidents. I am responsible for handling these accidents, and I am already too busy. But recently, the head of NASA gave me another warning

This department adds a more difficult job."

Lisa put her hands on the table and looked at Quill and said: "You should have heard before you left. Over the years, countless UFOs have crashed on the earth. It's like this is some kind of spaceship cemetery. During the peak period, there are more than one in a week."

There are more than 40 UFO investigation reports that I need to handle."

"Originally, I was used to it, but recently, this thing has become more and more unusual. I'm very stressed about this, but I can't find any clue. Quil, I won't say those polite words anymore.

As your friend, I have to ask for your help."

Quill nodded and said: "My abilities are limited, but if there is anything I can do to help, I will do my best to help you."

Lisa sighed, but Quil was a little surprised. He had never seen this strong woman show such a sad face, and then he heard Lisa say: "Most of the UFOs that crashed on the earth have completely disappeared."

Destroyed, the pilot, passengers, and important parts of the spacecraft were all burned up due to falling through the atmosphere at high speed."

"But over the years, among so many accidents of UFO crashes, there are always a few lucky people who can still save something after falling to the ground."

Quill nodded. When he was working, he had also heard that something new had been found in the remains of a certain UFO, but most of the time those things were useless. At that time, human technology was too backward and advanced.

The creations of alien civilizations can only be piled in warehouses to collect dust.

"Most of these lucky people don't carry any dangerous goods. What can be dug out are only spacecraft parts, but that small part is very bad...Have you heard of the Mandarin?"

Quill didn't respond to the rapid change of topic, but Lisa didn't seem to expect him to answer, but explained to herself: "He is a notorious fugitive who has been entrenched on the remote borders of Eastern countries for a long time.

, and the reason why he has been able to survive for so long is because of the mysterious Ten Commandments."

"The Ten Commandments are one of the treasures brought by an alien spacecraft when it landed on the earth. If it is taken away by people with evil intentions, it will bring terrible disasters."

"You mean..." Quill had a bad feeling.

"The director of the space agency who fired you has now secured his position. Unfortunately, another UFO crashed in the Rocky Mountains and was well preserved. The director believes that,

There may be treasures like the Ten Rings in this spaceship."

Lisa closed her eyes and said in a sad tone: "He thinks that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration should have comprehensive authority to investigate this UFO. He thinks that we should take the initiative and contact the FBI, S.H.I.E.L.D. or something similar.

agencies are vying for the right to investigate the spacecraft."

"To this end, he has sent two scientific expedition teams, but they were completely wiped out. The team members also included Captain Couch, whom you were familiar with, Old Reiman, and Professor Delta who is about to retire in just a few months."

Quill's eyes widened. He stared at Lisa and raised his tone and said, "How dare he?! They are just scientific expedition personnel, not agents. How could he send them to die?!"

Lisa covered her eyes and said: "I have emphasized this to him a long time ago, but I couldn't stop him at all. He was blinded by the powerful force. He believed that in this era when everyone is moving toward the stars, NASA

He should occupy a more important position and have a greater voice. If no one gives it to him, then he will fight for it himself."

"But he is doing something stupid, so stupid!" Quill gritted his teeth and cursed, then he looked at Lisa and said: "Do you want me to investigate that spacecraft?"

"No, on the contrary, I object to anyone investigating that spacecraft. My rich professional experience tells me that there are no treasures on it, only endless dangers. Therefore, I hope you can stop anyone who wants to investigate it.

People, especially our colleagues, should no longer let them die."

Lisa looked into Quill's eyes and said: "I will send you to the forward base of the spacecraft crash investigation in a reasonable official name, but what you have to do is not to approach the spacecraft, but to stop the subsequent ones sent by the director.

People, you can use any method, even kidnapping them."

Quill also looked into Lisa's eyes and said, "I understand your good intentions, Lisa, but you should know that this is not the way to solve the problem."

"The solution to the problem should not be given by us." Lisa's eyes were full of meaning. She looked at Quill and said: "This matter should be under the control of SHIELD. Do you understand what I mean?"

The light outside the window dimmed, and the reflection on the Hudson River shone into the house through the thin gauze curtains. The hand holding the quill finished writing another paragraph. The light outside the window fell on the end of the last ink mark, like a line.

The dim light shines through the door that has just been opened a crack.

"I understand what Lisa means. Of course, in my short career, I have dealt with SHIELD agents, and I know exactly what part of the world they are responsible for security work - ordinary people

People, that is, that part of me at that time, could never come into contact with, the part of the extremely cold iceberg buried deep under the water.

There must be something in that spaceship.

I was so sure because I saw unspeakable fear in Lisa's eyes, in the eyes of this woman whose every wrinkle was engraved with strength."
