"Ah, it's most comfortable to have breakfast at home." Yerou sighed softly while pouring a cup of Pu'er tea for Kalki with a beautiful teapot.
She felt relieved. Whenever she went to eat alone when Kalki was away, everyone seemed to be paying attention to whether she was pregnant, which made her feel very embarrassed.
Kalki took the tea cup from his wife and said, "Thank you." It seemed that after returning from Star City, his attitude towards her changed.
He thought to himself: Yerou is really a gentle and virtuous girl, just like all the perfect brides created by Plato. But Xuanji has never been like this, she is always as careless as a little boy, and sometimes she just stuffs random things for breakfast.
, but made him feel cute and energetic.
The table covered with a white tablecloth was filled with a sumptuous breakfast, with pink peonies in the vase. The clear sunlight from the breakfast shone in from above, making them feel as if they were dining in beautiful nature.
Ye Rou cleverly avoided asking about what he saw when he signed the peace treaty in Mangxing City. She didn't ask anything about Gaia. He just lowered his head to drink tea and said nothing.
Kalki, who had his hair in a bun, was drinking tea from a tea cup with his big hands. His wife secretly looked at him from the corner of her eyes and thought he looked very handsome while drinking tea. When his hair was tied up, the hair on both sides of the temples was pulled up and down, making it look like a mess.
His long eyebrows and eyes appear longer and more delicate. The direct sunlight makes his blond hair appear lighter and his eyes are as blue as water.
He was once known as the most handsome group leader. Ye Rou blushed and her heart skipped a beat when she saw him, like a cute female college student.
"I'm currently designing a strong light weapon," she said with some pride. Talking about weapons may be a common language between the two of them. "It can instantly emit a strong light that can penetrate the eye display of the Gaia battle suit.
This will cause Gaians to have a strong sense of dizziness. I am now adjusting the brightness control and light frequency control, so that my own people will not be affected, but the enemy will faint instantly."
"This way we don't have to kill them!" She raised her voice deliberately, appearing confident and expressing the hope that he would approve or praise her.
Kalki held his forehead with his left hand and made a helpless expression.
"Is this a bad idea?" she quickly asked.
"No." He was always so direct, completely ignoring her feelings.
"Why?"
"Soldiers don't have time to judge the enemy's situation during a ground attack." The regiment leader looked very serious. "The display screen of the knight's space battle armor can determine whether the enemy is dead by scanning the respiratory system of the Gaia battle suit, but in actual combat
The situation is very complicated, and the knights will not pay attention to it. You must also consider the frontline combatants when designing."
Yerou frowned.
"The battlefield is extremely chaotic and complex, which you can't imagine." Kalki continued, "It is better to kill them all than to stun them. Efficiency is paramount on the battlefield, and we have no time to show humane care for the enemy."
"This is simpler and more efficient..."
Ye Rou looked at his hands. The fingers were so slender and even very graceful. He used these hands to kill and caress her...
"Enemies are people too, aren't they?" She looked at him with big bright blue eyes, "They also have wives and children, and families..."
"Don't be stupid!" He interrupted her coldly, even with a hint of reproach, "We are all part of the killing machine, you have to recognize the reality."
"War is an act that transcends morality." Kalki spoke in a low and melodious voice, with a particularly solemn tone, "Only the defeated will be judged, and great warriors can never be measured by vulgar morality. We are
Fight for the Most High!"
He was too lazy to explain to her at length——
Deacon Narada, who was killed in Messier's brutal ground war, was ambushed by dozens of Gaia special forces disguised as corpses and lying in a pile of corpses, and was seriously injured in a life-for-life suicide attack. p>
His retinue and subordinates immediately carried him to a place with lighter fire coverage for treatment, but they chose the wrong path in a hurry, and died under their own side's fierce ion artillery fire.
Deacon Narada, who was famous for his bravery, was only 24 years old when he died. Many people once praised him for being as hard-working as Kalki in his youth. Probably the only difference was that Kalki would cold-bloodedly kill all the resisting forces along the way.
It was to bleed as much blood as possible to the enemy, while Narada showed mercy...
War is too cruel, Varuna's words are still in my ears, but it is too difficult to do.
He looked at Yerou, she had the questioning and sad expression of a simple girl.
He knew she couldn't understand him.
At the other end of the vast sea of stars, countless worlds are intertwined, and everyone has their own life.
Xuanji put many old things gently in a small box. The exquisite album contained poems written for him, the old civet cat doll Master Maurice that she had held for 15 years, and the wisteria flower hairpin.
She wants to say goodbye to her past self, her girlhood, and...the Grand Captain Kalki whom she loved deeply.
She pressed a contact to seal the box, and the entire box was tightly sealed and could no longer be opened from the outside.
Then, she picked it up and threw it to the garbage collection point in the corridor. Originally, this was supposed to be the job of the housekeeping assistant.
After throwing it away, she felt relieved, but she still cried when she entered the door. She leaned against the door, lowered her head and cried silently, her long black hair hanging down, and she saw the teardrops shining on the floor.
Is this just a wishful dream on her part?
"Xuanji?!"
Lancer Xu looked at Xuanji slowly walking towards him in surprise.
He was resting today. He did not wear a military uniform, but wore casual clothes - a white shirt, an iron blue-gray short windbreaker, and black trousers. Although he was not particularly tall, he looked very energetic.<
/p>
Xuanji was wearing a military uniform, not the slightly simple uniform of a superior soldier of the Ranger Mercenary Corps, but a very neat and beautiful light blue military uniform. Instead of using the gun-lapel style uniform design of the Space Fleet, it used a
The stand-up collar badge of Plato’s fleet uniform is eye-catching.

Lancer was stunned. Not only was this a uniform he had never seen before, but Xuanji had actually cut off her long, straight black hair. Her slender figure matched this uniform, and she walked with a heroic pace.
When he arrived, he looked like a handsome young man.
Lancer was stunned as she expected, and Xuanji smiled slightly.
"This is the new uniform I received this morning," her voice was just like her appearance, youthful and confident, "please call me Second Lieutenant Xuan."
Lancer quickly looked at her shoulder and collar badges to confirm the sudden promotion.
"Is this?" His eyes widened in surprise.
It is said that the Ministry of War is preparing pilots for Gaia's transforming fighter plane. Although the coalition government signed a humiliating treaty with the Platons, it is actually secretly preparing for war, preparing to make a big show of force in three years.
But Lancer didn't expect that Xuanji would become the first batch of transforming fighter pilots in the Gaia Space Fleet so quickly.
"I filed my retirement report, but they gave me this uniform..." Faced with Lancer's surprised expression, Xuanji continued, "I thought this uniform was very good, so I accepted it..." p>
"Your hair?" Lancer reached out and stroked her hair. It was really cut very short. Now she was really a womanly man.
"It's always too much trouble to go to the front line. I'm not a Platonic knight." She lowered her eyes and smiled a little shyly.
Lancer was stunned.
Previously, Xuanji was only willing to join the mercenary rangers because she felt that the bureaucracy of the Ministry of War was too serious and she felt that there was no hope for her promotion.
But Lancer felt that Xuanji still regarded him as a Platonic person, and he could always test her desire to defect. She did not want to fight fiercely with the Platonic army on the front battlefield, but just wanted to make a living.
And now——
"Are you really going to become a transforming fighter pilot of Gaia? Isn't Plato your fatherland..." Sometimes the transformation is unexpected and hard to accept.
Xuanji was silent when facing the question, and they looked at each other.
In Lancer's eyes, Xuanji with short hair is still so beautiful, although she was even more beautiful that night...
But after that, she was unwilling to see him. Today she was suddenly willing to meet him. Sure enough, something happened.
After that night, the awkwardness between them became more and more awkward. The autumn weather in Mangxing City was full, and the natural park was filled with a deserted late autumn atmosphere, just like the relationship between them.
"Xuanji, do you still remember that this is the place where we first met?"
"Remember."
They met on the banks of Xixi River 12 years ago at a children's summer camp organized by the army.
He still remembered that little Xuanji suddenly attracted all his attention, but to Xuanji, the handsome Lancer would always be connected to the tree-lined background.
There are many facilities similar to military physical training in a large clearing in the woods. This is their childhood, and they are destined to spend their lives in the Gaia army.
He mustered up the courage, held her hands, and looked at her silently.
Xuanji looked at Lancer, he blushed a little, he always looked very green and hesitant.
Lancer pressed his right hand into the pocket of his windbreaker, and then took her hand again. The whole process was as weird as his usual behavior.
At this time, a teddy bear-looking proposal robot walked over cutely under a golden leaf, wearing a red heart collar on its short and thick neck, holding an exquisite ring box in its hand, and sang the most popular song of Mangxing City.
Hot list of marriage proposal songs:
"Marryme, marryme, I will never break your heart..." (Marry me, marry me, I will never break your heart)
Under Xuanji's slightly surprised expression, Lancer took the ring box from the proposing teddy bear.
After opening it, he knelt in front of her and solemnly proposed to her.
"Xuanji, marry me, I will cherish you for the rest of my life and love you forever."
He practiced this sentence over and over again in front of the mirror in his apartment, and still seemed a little nervous when he said it.
Xuanji unconsciously stared at Lancer's face with wide eyes. He had become much more mature from a young boy.
As a mixed-race boy, Lancer is actually quite handsome, especially after losing the baby fat on his face and starting to look more masculine.
Lancer held an exquisite red jewelry box in his hand, with a ruby ring embedded in the dark blue velvet satin - a
A bright and clear heart-shaped ruby is surrounded by a circle of diamonds, and the ring is also surrounded by a circle of bright diamonds, which are surrounded by sparkles and look extremely beautiful.
Xuanji sighed in her heart that Lancer was really a very traditional person. The wedding rings of young people in Mangxing City have long used various new types of cosmic mineral gems, and their styles have also kept pace with the times, full of all kinds of magical atmosphere.
Wedding ring boxes are rarely so old-fashioned. They have long used suspended laser technology, and the radiant light falls into the hands of the person who opens the jewelry box.
Xuanji stared at it intently. This ring looked a bit like an antique from the old Earth period. It was old-fashioned but extremely delicate and beautiful.
Seeing Xuanji remain silent, Lancer raised his eyebrows slightly, his brown eyes shining with expectation. He spent two months of his salary to buy this expensive ring, and he really hoped that Xuanji would show an expression of joy and excitement.
, but she stayed there without saying a word.
"Xuanji!" Lancer knelt and seemed to beg her to accept his ring, "Marry me!"
Xuanji was silent.
To many girls in Star City, Lancer is a boy with very good conditions. He has a good salary and does not have to go to the front line. He is also handsome in appearance. He is very responsible and can be a good husband and father, but...
…
"I have just been promoted to second lieutenant of the space fleet's transforming fighter pilot, and I don't want to give up this opportunity." She said it tactfully.
"Can't the second lieutenant get married?" Lancer stood up slowly. His face was very unhappy. After closing the ring box, he held it tightly in his hand, as if he already knew the answer.
"What if I get pregnant? I have no plans to have children within five years or ten years!"
"Then we will take measures, and the probability of a war in the next three years is very low..."
"You put it lightly. As a female pilot, I am different from you men. I have to train every day. I can't take care of your life."
"I take care of myself!"
"Then why should we get married?"
Lancer was silent. They chatted to death again, as they always did. He thought he was responsible for the girl, but Xuanji didn't appreciate it at all. She didn't want to marry him at all...
He clutched the ring box tightly, an uncontrollable anger welling up deep in his heart.
"The person you really love is Kalki. That night you found out that he got married and betrayed you... What do you think of me? Do you treat me like a monkey?!"
This was the first time Lancer said such important words to her. He had always looked up to her, she was such a beautiful platonic girl.
"I was just drunk, and you took advantage of me...I regretted it the next day." Xuanji also seemed excited, "Didn't I let you go home by yourself?!"
"Xuanji! It was you that night...!"
Lancer almost fainted from her anger. He understood that she just regarded himself as a substitute for another person, a tool for revenge.
