Chapter 129 The second time.
"Wait a moment." Shi Cunjin said to Anushka in the video call.
He hung up the video call, returned from the tea room to the soundproof reception room in the lounge area, locked the door, sat on the sofa and began to quickly look up the encyclopedia introduction to holographic communication.
In the 21st century, holographic games are no longer just a design concept.
However, the holographic games that Shi Cunjin had come into contact with were all marketed versions, and all game modeling and environmental sounds were perfected by the game company.
He had no idea about the holographic communication mode in the interstellar age, and had never taken the initiative to test its usage.
Before Anushka, Shi Cunjin had no "person" in this world who could make him take the initiative to understand this fashionable social mode that might expose his identity.
Even in the face of the upcoming carnival, Shi Cunjin's original plan was to allow the system to fully connect with the [Knowledge] company.
As for interstellar holographic communication, Shi Cunjin's understanding is still stuck on the "holographic play" that vv briefly mentioned in the original novel.
"Well! There are too many theoretical documents on the Star Network, and it is difficult to explain them all in a short time. Let me simply summarize them for you! This holographic communication depends on who initiated it! The virtual structure of the holographic environment is set by the initiator's ideas." The system quickly answered the question for Mr. Shi who was temporarily looking up information.
"The smart ring you have now is the most advanced version available on the market. First, click on the system configuration of the smart ring and scroll down to the bottom of the communication column. Yes, it's the one on the left! Click on the authorization to unlock the holographic communication application module!"
Shi Cunjin followed the system's instructions step by step. After unlocking the module, a very subtle mechanical sound suddenly rang out from the outside of his smart computer, and a built-in card slot popped out automatically.
System: "The top-end version of the intelligent brain ring comes with two portable neural sensory patches, but they can only be used twice. After all, the chip has to give up some functionality when it is miniaturized. Usually, insects will stick two chips on their temples for holographic communication, and only maintain simulated neural reactions and five senses."
"But... um, the original book mentioned holographic play, so in reality, some people will play something new with their female monarchs or female servants. At this time, one chip is usually attached to the temple, and the other is attached to the gland position at the back of the neck, which slightly simulates the interaction and perception of hormones." The system said, "Teacher Shi, the intelligent computer ring you are using now is still connected to the four major regional star networks. The chip is attached to the back of the neck, and the uploaded hormone simulation particles have not been backed up on the official website of the court of the Western Andromeda Region."
"Once investigated, you will either be considered as someone impersonating and stealing your information to commit online fraud, or you will be considered as a wild search and brought back to Cat's Eye." The system's serious tone lasted only a second, and immediately fluttered: "But it doesn't matter! I can help you completely cover this backup data! You can stick it on if you want! Both chips can be stuck on the back of your neck!"
"That's not necessary." Shi Cunjin said. He came from a fast-paced era of information explosion and constant leakage, and he had a natural distrust of any network.
After some consideration, Shi Cunjin put two transparent patches on his forehead.
Coming here, he has never actually seen the topography and cities of advanced planets. His fantasy of interstellar technology is absolutely no match for the native Zerg, and he does not want to expose the 21st century city in his memory because of the dominant holographic construction.
Shi Cunjin lowered his eyelashes, mixed with rationality and sensibility at this moment, and he sent a new text message to Anushka.
@Fate: [You are in charge of constructing the virtual scene of this holographic communication. I want to get to know you when you are not working. Is that okay?]
SVIP Standard A567: [Anything is OK. ]
[-You have a holographic communication request to apply for access-]
【Agree/Reject】
Shi Cunjin nodded in agreement.
Immediately, his vision and five senses began to feel uncomfortable, similar to being severely drunk. His perception quickly became blurred, his head felt heavy and his feet felt light. The sofa beneath him seemed to suddenly turn into quicksand and he slid violently down.
Fortunately, this discomfort only lasted for 1 second, otherwise Shi Cunjin would have reflexively hung up the communication request.
Within 1 second, holographic virtual neural technology dominated Shi Cunjin's retina, and the reception room he was in turned into a minimalist hotel-style apartment.
The apartment was large and empty, with only a bed placed against the wall as furniture.
There are no sofas, stools, appliances or luxury furnishings in the room. There is only a digital clock on the wall facing the bed.
The room doesn't even have the most basic hotel-style carpet furnishings. All interior decorations remain simple, just-made from the factory, empty and clean.
The only object in the house worth viewing is the wall of medals of honor directly opposite the bed.
The medals of honor were protected by glass and wooden frames. The precious metals, gems, and crystals that made up the medals shone with a fresh, cold light under the lights.
Everything about this bedroom exuded a strange coldness that made one feel no desire to stay any longer.
This is Anushka's military bedroom. When Shi Cunjin realized this, a pair of hands gently held his shoulders from behind.
Immediately, Shi Cunjin was shrouded by several shadows.
Four soft, broad black wings rolled up from behind, forming a wall of wings around his body, and a slightly warm breath appeared beside his ear.
"This is me from 16 to 23," Anushka whispered.
Shi Cunjin counted the number of medals in the glass frame, an astonishing 129.
“…Unbelievable.” Shi Cunjin sighed.
129 medals, all medals from the 30th onwards were decorated with gemstones.
The system's intelligence was getting more and more flexible. If Shi Cunjin looked at something for a while, it would quickly explain it. Now it was saying, "Military medals above the rank of colonel began to be decorated with special materials. The gem-like stones on the medals are actually products of the energy of the alien star nuclear carbon compression. They can be used as energy if they are removed. Nowadays, some impoverished military families make a living by selling the gem medals passed down by their ancestors."
The system calculated and said quickly: "The value of the medals on this wall can be converted into energy to purchase a series of top-grade armor."
At this moment, Shi Cunjin suddenly felt a familiar soft and elastic squeezing sensation from the side of his neck to his ear.
Shi Cunjin: ...
"129 medals," Anushka emphasized. "From non-commissioned officer to lieutenant and then to colonel and general, I have won more military medals than any other person in my generation."
Suddenly, Shi Cunjin understood the emphasis. The signal just conveyed in the video might have been understood by Anushka as another meaning: Fate prefers the flash of glory, and will be more favorable to insects that show their strength.
Shi Cunjin: …
There was a feeling that Anushka understood what he said but seemed not to fully understand the definition of love.
"Well, so, you want to set the number of kisses at 129?" Shi Cunjin asked seriously.
The hands that were holding his shoulders suddenly clenched and then loosened abruptly, without hurting his shoulders. At this moment, they were frozen, neither moving up nor down, with a gap of several centimeters between them and his shoulders.
“…”
The holographic chip was of excellent quality and had clear sensing. Shi Cunjin noticed in one second that the breathing sound behind him had disappeared.
"Breathe." Shi Cunjin said.
“…”
Suddenly, a wave of heat and trembling breaths came intermittently into his ears.
"…OK."
"good."
Anushka was silent for a few seconds, cleared her throat, and said in a serious voice: "Sign a contract."
"Varied…?"
Anushka held her breath again, Fate was laughing and said, "Okay."
"The time it takes for the starship I'm on to recharge is uncertain. There are probably 10 or 15 minutes left. Should we sign now or..." "Kiss now."
Anushka held Fate's shoulders and turned him around. When she saw Fate's smiling eyes, her anxiety and restlessness turned into light bubbles, floating up and disappearing.
Oh my god. Anushka stared into Fate's eyes. Fate's eyes were too light in color, and the light in the bedroom was too bright. The pair of grayish silver eyes were like a clear mirror, reflecting a fool with a failed expression control, red neck and ears, and an expression as stiff as a stone.
He was wearing a formal suit, and his butterfly wings and shadow enveloped Fate, but at this moment, Anushka felt as if he had returned to his childhood; he was at a loss about everything in the world, unable to find the corresponding solution, and could only wait stiffly for the unsolvable troubles to crush him, and then find a solution from the pain.
"Do you want to kiss me standing up?"
This existence that easily controlled his mind did not become a problem. Fate reached out and held his hand, and said in the voice that made him fascinated: "Come on."
“No, go to the sofa…” Anushka realized later that there was no furniture such as sofas in the dormitory.
Anoushka suddenly felt angry, not at Fate, but at himself.
The rage came with such force that it completely burned away his obsession and distraction.
His private life is so poor and empty, just like this empty model room, and his private state is the uncomfortable military hard bed in the empty room.
Even though Fate was different from any of the gentlemen in the cat's eyes, and even though Anushka was not good at showing courtesy, he knew that this kind of private state was not attractive at all.
Of all the dating guidelines Anushka had read, attraction was the absolute top priority, and he was…terribly bad at it.
In particular, Anushka couldn't think of a more lifelike scene for a while.
His study only had work files and a wall of fangs and guns, his training room was full of loaded guns and heavy training equipment, and the Black War God was a cookie-cutter starship interior. What else could he choose? A conference room? A big podium?
A few seconds later, Shi Cunjin was suddenly wrapped up by Anushka with butterfly wings. Anushka hugged him and held him back. He was a little confused about the situation and stumbled forward a few steps.
When they reached a certain position, Anushka sat back, and Shi Cunjin was pressed on the shoulders by him and sat on his thighs.
Due to the posture, Shi Cunjin was forced to bend his legs, with his feet directly stepping on half of Anushka's wing membrane, and his whole body was covered by the four-winged butterfly.
Suddenly, everything around him became completely dark and he could no longer see any part of the room.
Shi Cunjin:?
"Why did you suddenly fold your wings?" Shi Cunjin didn't panic. He stretched out his hand along Anushka's shoulder, touched his face, and asked, "I just looked at one wall, what happened to other places?"
In the darkness, Shi Cunjin felt his hand being pulled up, and after a moment, a soft and elastic pressure appeared in the palm of his hand.
"There's nothing in the room. There's nothing to see. Just look at the wall." In the darkness, Anushka was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Next time."
"Next time I'll call you via holographic communication, I'll prepare everything a normal room should have."
“Soft bed, aromatherapy, carpet…”
"Change the lights to warmer tones."
"Again." Silence. "Again prepare fresh flowers for the day."
"Again." Silence. "Are you interested in tapestries made of alien fur? Or cups and tableware made of tusks? I noticed that you are always replenishing water."
Shi Cunjin listened quietly to Anushka speaking. He spoke very slowly, like a student in class who was suddenly called upon by the teacher to stand up and answer a question.
The chip for holographic communication is one of the best on the market, but it is definitely not as good as real contact, and there is still a slight perceptual distortion and blur.
But even so, Shi Cunjin could feel that Anushka was trying her best to come up with the better and more comfortable guesses in her imagination.
This reminded Shi Cunjin of Anushka Kash in the original novel.
Anushka Kash in the original novel has been busy all his life. He controls the ultimate military power, and resources and wealth flow into his jurisdiction continuously. But because of the busyness and years of war, he will use his time to the highest efficiency. Drinking water is only the most convenient nutrient solution. Occasionally, he may drink some good wine during social events, but he will not waste time appreciating it.
It is not surprising that such a person, who has a low sense of material quality, low sense of taste, and low to no sense of enjoyment, has such an empty model bedroom.
“…Or, human books? I have connections in the court. The court’s library houses the most complete collection of paper books since the establishment of diplomatic relations with humans.” Anushka reported.
Shi Cunjin stroked his shoulder and said, "Put some food here. I'm very interested in the special foods of higher stars. Go and try them when you have time. If you find any delicious ones, you can bring some back and tell me. It will be more convenient for you."
"Okay." Anushka said, he gently held Fate's hand and rubbed his straight nose against Fate's wrist.
"Why do you always rub me with your eyes?" Shi Cunjin asked.
From the first second that the holographic communication was established, Anushka had been rubbing his neck and ears with her eyeballs. Shi Cunjin actually had bumps on the back of his neck from the soft touch of the eyeballs.
In the darkness, Shi Cunjin noticed that Anushka's head had stopped moving.
After a moment, Anushka said, "From the hundreds of dates between the ages of 18 and 23, all of you have a uniformly positive opinion of me."
"They said my heterochromatic eyes were beautiful, like two faceted gemstones under the light."
"My gene sequence is excellent, and my self-healing ability is A+. It only takes 5 hours to grow an eyeball again. A gentleman once said that if I dug out my left red eye and made it into cryostasis for him, he would agree to go on a third date with me."
"Do you want my eyes?" Anushka's voice sounded calm in the darkness, just like the tone in which she reported on how to decorate the room.
Meanwhile, Anushka held his finger and guided him to touch his closed eyeballs.
The eyelashes made Shi Cunjin's palms a little itchy.
"..." Shi Cunjin was silent. He simply stretched out his hand and hooked it around Anushka's neck, saying, "I want to kiss you."
Anushka’s breathing rate changed instantly.
Shi Cunjin immediately reached out to cover his mouth, blocking the tongue, and said sternly but gently: "The tongue cannot be transformed. Also, this is a chip sensor. If you mess around a little, the communication will be cut off."
Anushka: “…”
"Keep it steady throughout the whole process. The tailbone cannot wrap around my legs, and the scales cannot wrap around my back."
Anushka: “…”
"It will take 15 hours before you can send a message."
"Okay, I can do that."
Shi Cunjin let go of his hand. He thought about the French kiss and cherry stems that he had studied when collecting materials before, and lowered his head.
The lips that were moistened with ice water were soon stained by the hot thin lips.
…
The 5th second of the kiss.
The four black wings of the long-winged monarch butterfly suddenly spread open, no longer able to contain the lovers in its arms.
The virtual light separated them, Anushka fell backwards, and Shi Cunjin used his body as a mattress.
Their kiss briefly broke for half a second, and there was sticky moisture in the air.
Anushka's pupils shrank to a tiny dot, as if she had suffered the most horrific attack in her life, and her brain instantly crashed and was unable to process the information.
The four wings under him were like pure black velvet carpets, smoothly spread out on the bed. The bone knife, whose wingtips had not completely softened, fell on the metal floor. The bone knife was controlled by the nerve endings, trembling and scraping against the metal floor in a disorderly manner, and the floor was immediately scratched by the sphenoid bone.
Shi Cunjin held Anushka's face, wiped the liquid from his lips, and pinched the disobedient tongue with a smile: "Change your tongue back."
Anushka's lips trembled as if they were in the snow. He retracted his tongue several times before rolling it back into his mouth, turning it back into a short human tongue. He opened his mouth to show it, and Shi Cunjin kissed him again.
The next second, Anushka seemed to be hit by an electric baton from inside her body, and her four long and wide butterfly wings continued to hit the floor frantically.
His scales softened quickly, the dangerous poison glands in the scales and the bone knives on the wing tips lost their power, and a mating pattern of burnt red-gold appeared on the butterfly wings.
Even without the influence of hormones, the devastating emotions brought by the holographic chip still burned Anushka's mind out.
Anushka had never been exposed to such a strange way of kissing. Before meeting Fate, all her knowledge of intimacy came from dating textbooks. She only knew about kissing and licking.
But Fate's strange kiss was so soft and flexible that it seemed to give him the ability to sense the movement of some kind of life, bringing him into a whole new world of senses.
…
…
"Crack!" At a certain moment, Anushka's scaly wings hit the ground hard, the softened sphenoid bone was bent to the extreme, the excessive opening of the sphenoid cartilage excessively pulled the softened scales, the blood vessels on the scales were torn, and the golden courtship pattern on the butterfly wings was stained with blood.
Anushka suddenly bent over, and Shi Cunjin slipped to the side and was almost thrown off.
Anushka froze and immediately forced herself to lie back upright. Her hands quickly grabbed the metal railing at the head of the bed to stabilize herself, twisting the solid metal railing until it was twisted.
"Breathe through your nose." Shi Cunjin took the time to say.
"Hehe...cough cough..." Anushka's breathing was disordered, her throat made discordant choking sounds, and she nodded randomly.
…
"Teacher Shi, there are still 2 minutes left." said the system.
Shi Cunjin raised his head and put his hand on Anushka's jaw, forcing him to shut up, and then covered his mouth with his hand.
The next second, Shi Cunjin felt a sticky and hot sensation in the palm of his hand, and a hint of red could be vaguely seen between his fingers.
Shi Cunjin used his other hand to smooth Anushka's sweaty blond hair, "Remember to change the necklace back to a style that suits you, do you hear me?"
He shook Anushka's head gently and said gently, "Just say I understand."
Anushka opened and closed her eyes repeatedly, her consciousness still fuzzy. She rolled back her tongue, nodded, and said vaguely through her palm, "I understand."
Shi Cunjin got the answer, smiled at Anushka, and hung up the holographic communication the next second. Under the effect of holographic technology, his figure turned into a burst of soft particles and dissipated.
“…Fei!”
Anushka came back to her senses in a startled instant and reached out to grab the dissipating projection particles.
The softened black wings immediately hardened, and all four wings were fully spread, with the golden mating pattern displayed to the maximum extent, and four golden eye patterns on the black wings.
It was as if a bird of prey with colorful feathers was threatening something, or as if it was frightened and suddenly spread its wings.
…
In front of the black hole channel.
Shi Cunjin's five senses returned to the reception room and he took off the holographic chip attached to his temple.
He played with the chip in his hand for a minute, thinking nothing, letting himself immerse in the relaxation brought by the good mood.
When the 60 seconds were up, Shi Cunjin suppressed his emotions, regained his rationality, and left a message to Anushka: [I have entered the black hole channel. Remember to change your necklace and don’t make mistakes. ]
Shi Cunjin adjusted his state and continued to work. He asked, "What was the strange news you mentioned before? What was so strange about it?"
System: "Oh! Because the IP of this message comes from Maoyan! But oh, the content is related to the Chinese part of the article you wrote! I took a screenshot and show it to you."
Shi Cunjin clicked on the screenshot and stopped playing with the chip.
Unknown account: [Hakuna Matata, from today on, you will be free and worry-free. ]
Unknown account: [Dingman, Peng Peng, The Lion King. ]
…
At the same time, the Western Andromeda Universe Customs.
The holographic communication was disconnected, and Anushka returned to the interior of the Black War God. The handle and seat of the driver's seat were broken into pieces.
After a moment, he used his fingers to comb his blond hair, which was completely unkempt after being soaked, and took out a cigarette box from the storage compartment at the base of the driver's seat. He failed to control his expression, and with a deadpan face 2.0, he smoked half a box with a bitter and resentful look.
At this time, his intelligence ring received a new message from his adjutant: "General, the chief of the Fourth Army branch stationed at the cooperation base requests to speak with you."
Adjutant: "There are two unclear situations that require your immediate attention."
