"I only have gadgets like a mini sweeping robot and a floating compressed trash can. I can't afford a smart housekeeping machine for the time being." She walked into his bedroom and explained to him easily. Xuanji looked very energetic in the morning.
"I can take care of it myself, I have hands and feet."
She originally thought his bedroom would be messy, so she came to help him tidy it up.
But when they entered the study, she found that he had cleaned it long ago, even found the hidden cabinet where the guest bedding was placed, and automatically folded the bed back into the sofa. Everything was as tidy as if no one had been there.
"Oh..." She showed an unexpected smile.
"I know how to tidy up and organize myself. When I was ten years old, I entered the Trayest Mausoleum, which is the highest level of the White Tiger Knights in Bukhara, and became the servant of the leader of the White Tiger Knights. The tasks he assigned me
It’s very heavy, and I’m often busy doing a lot of trivial things, but it helps me learn to take care of myself.”
"For a knight, you must first become a good squire before you can become a good lord." He explained.
"Is this...?" She smelled a faint aroma spreading in the room, like the fragrance of plum blossoms emitted by the spices she placed in the study.
"I'm sorry, but I took the incense burner and incense blocks you put on the bookshelf without your consent, because you were still asleep at that time." He seemed very polite, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe him as a humble gentleman. "
Because I need to burn incense and sit quietly when I get up early in the morning to clear my soul."
Xuanji was simply impressed by him. He spoke such ancient Chinese, fasted and burned incense and meditated. Kalki was almost a god in her mind. In comparison, her group of foxy friends were really vulgar.
Kalki thought her surprised look was cute. He didn't expect such a cute everyday girl to be able to fight against him without flinching.
He thought that he couldn't tell her that the reason for meditating was just because being captured put too much pressure on him. When Plato lived, he actually had no interest in meditating. After getting up, he often wandered around, and sometimes Garuda would
Take him flying far away, and I’m afraid such happy and carefree days will never come back——
She looked at the way he was thinking about something. Kalki's side profile was perfect. It was this perfect face, but his eyes were hiding secrets.
"Did you sleep well?"
"Not good."
Xuanji curled her lips. Sometimes he was very upright and not polite at all.
"Look!" He took out two mini bugs he found under the cactus pot and sofa bed and showed them to her.
These eavesdropping devices are very thin and light, just like a small patch. If he hadn't attended a prisoner training course, he wouldn't be able to identify them.
"There should be quite a few, and it will take a lot of effort to find them...A-Bian!" Then he imitated her and called the voice-activated moving trash can, and neatly threw them into the compressed trash can, "This is it.
Your people’s morals.”
Xuanji was speechless, she knew that Platonic law prohibited monitoring and eavesdropping on any Platonic person.
"Well... Gaia's problem is that the polarization is too serious. The coalition government is afraid that the people at the bottom will resist... This should not be a secret. You are a famous enemy general. Naturally... before we arrived, the secret service was probably already there.
My home is decorated..."
Xuanji looked very embarrassed. She thought: As a Platonic person hidden among the Gaians, she has felt being monitored by invisible eyes since she was a child.
"This is the case everywhere in this world... You should get used to it. We are prisoners of Gaia."
"Can't we escape?" He lowered his head and said gloomily.
"Patience, Kalki, the Platonic Senate will redeem you at all costs. Think about me... who will care about me? You are lucky, some people are not as lucky as you." Xuanji spoke Plato in his ear
The edge is gently attached to the ear canal.
"Let's go buy you a robe! Wait, I'll change my clothes!" She returned to her usual voice, looking enthusiastic and lively.
She ran to her bedroom like a cheerful bird, and there was a small dressing room next to it.
Soon, she changed into a pink knight's robe, her black hair was tied into a playful bun on top of her head, and she suddenly jumped in front of him.
"Surprise!"
"かわいい!" (cute) Kalki blurted out a sentence in Japanese with a smile.
"Look, our knights of the Qinglong line wear right gussets. I am a Platonic female knight!" She turned around in front of him.
He looked at her with a smile unconsciously, thinking, this is a strange girl, she seems to have many faces, which is very similar to him.
"There are very few female knights in Plato. The four major human races combined only have about three thousand people, which is even rarer than knights." He said to her.
"My mother is, and I was trained as a female knight. Like you, we both started attending martial arts schools at the age of four."
"Then you two are extremely good. But...if you had been in Plato, you would definitely not be as cute as you are now." He raised his eyebrows, "Those female knights all looked arrogant. If you were married,
It would be terrible to become a female senator later."
He made a fierce expression.
"Hmph! You straight man is a cancer!" She pouted and showed a fierce expression, "This is called women not showing respect to men."
"Well, I don't dare to make trouble for the dragon knights." He quickly explained, "Women have a very high status in Plato, but they are not allowed to bear the most difficult combat tasks. The casualties on the front line are too serious, and women are too precious. But in the army
There are so many departments, so many female commanders... If all women are sent to the battlefield, the Platonic people will become extinct. 'Logos' uses female genes to match the best genes. In other words, all Platonic men are just
The chosen partner will be killed in battle at any time because our marriage time is too late."
"Ah...according to you, Plato is simply a paradise for women's rights! But what we encounter on the front line are you guys, the straight men?" she said in surprise.
He smiled and looked apologetic.
"The army is special, so the Grand Commander has a very high status. Female knights can usually only be in the Senate, but they have real power!"
"It's not easy for a woman in the Gaia Army. I've been ostracized by my male colleagues..." She thought about the difficulty of being a female soldier. "How I wish I could become a real female knight!"
"You will!" He looked at her sincerely with his blue eyes.
Xuanji thought, man is really a strange animal, completely controlled by the environment. If Kalki were a Gaian, what would he become? It is because of the closed life of the Knights that he seems so simple and easy to get along with
.
When the two of them stood on the floor of the Aegean, the most high-end Platonic Knight robe custom-made store in Star City, where the white sand was floating in the illusion of light, Xuanji couldn't help but observe Kalki's expression. This was the first time in his life.
Shopping.
"Aegean Sea" is a typical Gaia high-end clothing store. It is as white as a snow cave, with sparkling floors, imitating the white sand beach of the sea. Crystal lights are hung everywhere above the head, and there are also various high-end custom-made furniture and shelves. It is very stylish.
Sense.
"Didn't you say that everyone in Gaia shops online?"
"High-end stores still have physical stores, because shopping requires a full-body experience, especially communication between people, such as compliments... Rich people can't live without this, can they?"
As soon as she finished speaking, those very beautiful shopping guide ladies in crisp uniforms gathered around, their eyes smiling like crescents.
"Welcome, welcome! What kind of robes do the two guests need?"
"We will choose it ourselves." Xuanji immediately took him aside to the automatically selected extra-long display page.
Kalki's expression was calm and he could not tell that this was the first time he was buying something in his life. When he casually touched the ion display screen of "Our Store's Products", he couldn't help but widen his eyes. It turned out that the most ordinary knight's robe could actually be used.
There are hundreds of patterns produced under Gaia's commercial packaging. The robes of Plato's knights were originally very simple, with few colors, focusing on solemnity and simplicity. As a result, the robes here have dozens of different textures, from ancient silk to cotton and linen.
The latest synthetic materials are available in various designs, colors, belts, and many trinkets that have never existed before, such as hairpins for men and women, from tortoiseshell jade to various
There are a variety of the latest interstellar gemstones in a variety of dazzling materials, as well as various purses, small Kun bags, etc. that match the robe.
"So many varieties?" he muttered.
"Of course, you have forgotten that the name of Mangxing City's wealth is widely spread throughout the galaxy, and humans have enjoyed the richest material achievements in history here..."
"It is also a famous city of Sex and the City that destroys the energy balance of the universe. Its plunder range exceeds 10,000 light-years and destroyed 10 million planets and asteroids in 500 years." He said coldly.
Xuanji looked helpless, "Because the Platos have plundered a large part of the production capacity, the Gaians can only mine more..."
"Are we humans a very bad species?" she suddenly asked, "We consume huge resources in the space age, and even more unscrupulously because of the advancement of technology?"
"Let's take you to the measuring room!" Before Kalki could say anything, these young and beautiful female shop assistants walked up enthusiastically and thoughtfully.
"Please come this way!" These girls were extremely attentive to Kalki and almost swarmed him away.
"Oh, I finally have time!" Xuanji breathed out. She had already seen the email notification before, and when Kalki went to the laser measuring room to get measured, she could finally read it.
"Lance! It's him?" She opened the projection interface of her wristband, which was a special frontline email.
This front-line mail was sent after being brought back from the front line by a special postal spacecraft. It is the highest-level letter in Gaia’s civil postal system, ranking at the forefront of all messages.
After she clicked on it, she saw the video recorded by Lancer Xu.
"Xuanji, are you okay?" He was still so shy in the small dormitory, waving to her, "I'm fine, the 'Darjeeling Project' was successful! I'm so happy... but our fleet got
New order, no way to return. We are now at base 166P, using the fleet's engineers to make repairs. This place was severely damaged by the Platos. Now we are eating very poorly and it is difficult to take a shower... Fortunately, I brought a lot of food with me.
of..."
Alas, he is still so nagging, Xuanji thought to herself.
"I have great news for you! Due to my outstanding performance in the 'Darjeeling Project', I have now been promoted to warrant officer! Of course, the uniform has not been issued to me yet. I am now in the dormitory. I will wait for a while."
After a while, it becomes hot and uncomfortable. The reconstruction of the 166P base is also a very important matter. The coalition government requires that production be restored as soon as possible. After completing the reconstruction task and returning home, I will be awarded the rank of second lieutenant."
"Xuanji! In other words, I will become a second lieutenant now! When I come back, please call me Second Lieutenant Xu!"
He smiled unusually childishly, his eyes sparkling, and he was completely a young man full of hope and happiness.
The video ends here. The amount of data that grassroots officers and soldiers can occupy is very small.
What? Xuanji was shocked, how could he rise so fast?! It was like a god.
"If I can be promoted to second lieutenant within three years after graduating from college... shit bag, can you give me a chance?"
His words are still lingering in my ears. Lancer is always a little hesitant in front of him. He always speaks half-said, and there is still some shyness of a teenager on his face. The summer when he graduated from the command academy, the sun was shining brightly and the greenery was green.
The trees are flying, time flies so fast.
"I'm so ashamed. I had bad grades and barely graduated..." Lancer looked very ashamed.
The two of them were walking by the river of the military academy. The environment there was very good. Many military students were rowing in the river. On the embankment, many people were running and riding fitness bikes for exercise.
"I was worried that you wouldn't be able to graduate, hahaha." She also always has a straightforward temperament.
"I envy you so much, shitbag. Being a soldier is such an easy thing for you... I also envy my classmates, who were already second lieutenants or lieutenants when they graduated."
The bright river water reflects his good-looking profile. Although his nose is a bit round, he is tall and straight. His hair is curly and his light brown eyes look very gentle.
"Your background is much stronger than mine. You will be the future pillar of the General Staff! I have always been a temporary worker. Not to mention our treatment and salary, even the pensions are different!" She always talks to her in a nice way.
There are no taboos for a buddy.
"When will I be promoted to second lieutenant?"
"No problem, cheer up!"
Unexpectedly, less than a year after graduation, Lancer Xu had evened the gap with those outstanding graduates.
Xuanji was in a daze.
"Xuanji." Kalki's deep voice brought her back to reality.
She raised her head and glanced at him. Kalki was already standing in front of her wearing a custom-made "Sheva Robe".
The rapid development of technology has made advanced customization available. Customers do not need to take off their clothes. They can get accurate body shape index by scanning at a special position. The automatic clothing machine on the other side will start cutting and sewing at full speed, plus Kalki’s choice.
It is the simplest basic model, so it will be made faster.
"So handsome." She exclaimed.
Kalki, who is about to turn 30, is at the peak of his appearance. His face is long and narrow like a classical statue, slender and upturned eyebrows, and the straight bridge of his nose. These facial lines make the whole face look so handsome and perfect. His eyes
The color is the same as the light indigo robe on his body, which is deep and blue. Only Plato's knight's robe can set off his temperament similar to that of an ancient noble.
She looked at him intently. He was like a noble prince. Looking at him would make her feel dizzy, as if her soul was being sucked into a black hole in the universe.
