Chapter 74 I Can't Tell
Capital League.
Bayfront Villa.
Anushka stood up, walked around, and suddenly raised her leg to kick a broken wall of a building in the ruins. The wind from her leg was like a steel whip, and the force of this kick was stronger than that of a shovel. The dangerous wall cracked again, bricks fell to the ground, and the steel bars of the building were exposed.
There was quite a commotion. The searchlight of the fighter plane monitoring on top of the ruins immediately swept over again. The white light illuminated the ruins clearly. The fighter plane's wings quickly increased in distance, rising higher and higher, becoming a small dot in the darkness.
In the ruins, the privileged man pulled out a steel bar from the wall, raised his head, expressionless, and aimed at the fighter with a javelin.
Fighter pilot: Move up immediately. We cannot afford to offend the militant special forces. We will keep a distance from them. We will keep a distance from them immediately. Sorry for disturbing them.
As the surveillance fighter jet moved further away, Anushka listened carefully to the surroundings.
This is a residential area. The only villa belongs to a senior official of the capital. There are surveillance cameras around the house for daily protection. Half an hour ago, the lines and the house were destroyed together, so there is no threat of leakage.
Anushka listened quietly. There was the sound of breathing in the garage a hundred meters away, and further away, there were sighs of waves. The waves followed the gravity of the moon and surged forward unchangingly.
He walked to the shadowy corner of the kitchen in the ruins of the living room and paced back and forth slowly.
After a while, Anushka took off the smart ring and held it in her hand. Her palms were moist and a little hot, and the cold machine was warmed by her body temperature.
Anushka considered the Black War God's cockpit, which was the safest place, but the Black War God was under the supervision of the Capital Alliance. She could break back into the cabin, but there was no need to poke the Capital Alliance's nerves.
He suddenly stopped caring about etiquette and the neatness of his military uniform, and casually leaned towards the kitchen wall that was covered with cracks and dust. After hesitating for a long time, he still did not write down a clear demand.
SVIP Standard A567: [This is not fair. ]
@Fate: [Speak clearly.]
SVIP Standard A567: [I don’t have any information to prove that you are you, yet you ask me to make demands. How is this fair? ]
@Fate: [Video call, didn't you see my hand? You also asked the soldiers to compare the shape of the bones, obviously, you were impressed.]
…
Bayfront Villa.
Anushka looked at the news, savoring it, trying to process it.
Is he angry?
But the words are very calm.
If Anushka had received this message three hours ago, she would have been very happy. Without much thought, the message proved that Fate was still alive.
But now, Anushka only felt a bitter taste on her tongue.
He couldn't tell.
SVIP standard A567: [……]
SVIP Standard A567: [My soldiers don't know the reason, they are just following orders, you are still not at risk. ]
@Fate: [What is the meaning of your request for proof?]
…
Anushka leaned her head against the wall and closed her eyes. The voices that were deep in her memory surfaced again, wrapped in disgust and warnings, trying to find a way in: Be careful, don't cross that line, if you cross it, you're done.
He opened his eyes and wrote down his reply: [I don’t want the insects to leave any regrets.]
SVIP Standard A567: [You are my first friend, different from the common words such as classmate, classmate, alumni, comrade-in-arms, and teammate. ]
SVIP Standard A567: [I want to know you. ]
SVIP Standard A567: [I want to know how my friend is doing, whether he is alive, safe, and whether he is injured. I am very worried.]
SVIP Standard A567: [Fate, I can’t give you a meaning, and I can’t tell whether you are angry because of the offense or not, I can’t tell. ]
SVIP Standard A567: [I just want to know how you are doing. Are you okay? ]
…
Anushka lowered her eyes and stared at the digital time in the intelligent brain ring: sixty seconds, one minute, ten minutes, twenty minutes.
Thirty minutes later, he received a voice message.
@Fite: [IIIIIIIII·100s]
Anushka stood up straight, her eyes widened in disbelief, her hands froze, her fingers slipped twice before hitting the right spot. The Bluetooth headset emitted a few seconds of rustling white noise, and only sounded at the tenth second.
Anushka heard one, two, and a steady, slow thump.
It was weak, slow, and powerful, and each beat was heavy, thumping into Anushka's ears along with virtual data and cold mechanical parts, echoing in his hearing and brain.
That's the heartbeat of a bug.
Anushka was stunned, her eyes wide open.
One hundred seconds is very short, but in Anushka's ears it seems infinitely long. He has been listening all the time, as if he has fallen into a maze of sounds and cannot escape.
It was Fate's special voice that woke him up.
@Fate: [? ]
@Fite: [Anushka?]
Anushka came back to his senses with a start, and the brain ring made a creaking sound as if it was about to break. He suddenly let go of the brain ring, but before it fell to the ground, it was grabbed tightly again.
…
SVIP Standard A567: [You are injured. ]
@Fate: [Yeah.]
@Fate: [Fortunately, it is not serious and is being treated.]
SVIP Standard A567: [You call it "still curable when there is only a little breath left"? 】
SVIP standard A567: [IIIIIIIII·100s]
…
@Fate: [Your heartbeat sounds like it's going to jump out of my headphones and hit me?]
@Fate: [Illusion?]
SVIP Standard A567: [No.]
SVIP Standard A567: [You are not good at all!!!]
@Fate: [If it can’t be cured, I won’t send it to you. If it can be cured, it will be different after a while.]
@Fate: [You believe me.]
As soon as these words were spoken, the “typing…” on A567’s chat box disappeared immediately.
After about five minutes, A567 finally replied: […Don’t imitate me. ]
Soon the next sentence popped up: [After a while? Is this an agreement? No, it’s a promise, I feel it is. I can tell this, it’s a promise.]
@Fate: […? ]
@Fate: [You really are...flexible.]
SVIP standard A567: [. ]
SVIP Standard A567: [It's just a heartbeat. You are not a female soldier. Your heartbeat frequency is not within the specifications of the physical examination form. Even if you listen to it a few more times, I can't verify it. I won't check it again. If you come back and send a message, I won't check it. ]
@Fate: [Yes, it is a promise.]
The text effects on the A567 chat box were shaking violently as they were being input...and then they got stuck and disappeared.
SVIP Standard A567: […Besides organs, where else is the injury? What special medicine do you need? We can find it for you if you can name it. The entire transportation process is safe and confidential, and can be airdropped at a fixed point.]
@Fate: [Not necessary at this time.]
A567 chat box shows that it is typing...
@Fate: [If I need anything, I will find you.]
The exciting text effects are being input...stuck and disappeared!
SVIP Standard A567: [Yes.]
SVIP Standard A567: [I’ve made a note of that.]
@Fate: [I'm going to sleep, good night.]
SVIP Standard A567: [Wait.]
【etc.】
【etc.】
@Fate: [? ]
SVIP Standard A567: [Tomorrow morning, send me a new heartbeat. This frequency is wrong. If I listen to it for another ten minutes, I feel like you may die at any time.]
@Fate: […Why listen to it for ten minutes when you have nothing to do?]
SVIP standard A567: [. ]
SVIP Standard A567: [This is how I usually judge how long my injured soldiers can hold out. ]
@Fate: [Weird, okay.]
…
Anushka was stunned. What happened was that there were sudden bolts of lightning, which made the insect stiff and numb.
Anushka knew from past conversations that it was difficult to get a clear answer from Fate, but for some reason, tonight went particularly smoothly.
He sent a good night.
Ten minutes.
Another sentence.
half an hour.
Another sentence.
An hour later, Anushka finally controlled her boiling emotions and punched the only surviving kitchen wall. As the only wall still standing in the ruins collapsed, the butterfly whiskers in her blonde hair reluctantly softened and exited the aerial state.
Anushka sat back on the sofa and lay back, with stars all over the sky.
Two hours ago, General Wanderer sent a message saying he landed in the Capital Alliance at midnight to hold a few meetings and take him back.
It was still an hour and a half before twelve o'clock. Anushka didn't plan to sleep, so she opened the voice message again and listened quietly.
This heartbeat was not outstanding among all the heartbeats he had ever heard; it was very weak.
But this heartbeat came from Fate's chest, and Anushka had infinite patience and was willing to listen attentively.
Its sometimes faint, sometimes strong thumping sound made Anushka's imagination fly lightly like the outstretched long wings of a butterfly.
Perhaps while recording, Fate was exhaling, his chest, lungs, and nasal cavity expanded slightly, and a faint breath was exhaled and disappeared into the air.
This heartbeat repeats itself over and over again, like the waves far away in the bay, following the magic of the moon, moving forward unchangingly.
Anushka listened quietly and fell asleep quietly, not noticing the time passing quickly.
…
The destructive female soldier A fell asleep in ten seconds, while her friend D in the garage stayed awake all night.
Within a hundred meters, there is a high-ranking martial arts expert who is moody and has a bad temper. On average, there are sounds of collapsing walls, banging, and smashing every hour. If Friend D can really fall asleep successfully, he will be the reincarnation of a pig.
Friend D took out his smart ring to contact his friends and started to find out who was so unlucky to have offended Anushka, the evil spirit, recently.
He was posting messages on the list, feeling happy in his heart: Who was the last bug who made Anushka emotional in school? Oh, it was also a Kashi, and Anushka's cousin.
The fate of this foul-mouthed Cash left a deep impression on his friend D.
This Kashchong is Anushka's cousin and is three years older than Anushka.
While in school, he always laughed at Anushka's ignoble background, mocked Anushka's female father for being stupid, and said that Anushka's male father deserved it for being weird.
Anushka's paternal father was the second son of the previous head of the Golden Family. He had a bright future and as long as he did not make any mistakes, he could marry Mr. Cat's Eyes after spending a few years on the battlefield.
However, during a military carnival parade, he fell in love with a noble who was a performer. The privileged high-ranking species fell in love with a low-ranking D-class noble, and this golden second son immediately became a laughing stock in the circle.
The second golden son seemed to think that the gentleman who only dances for money would be sincere.
The Kash family didn't take it seriously at the time, and it was too late when everything was exposed. The second son took this noble to other planets to register for marriage, and she had already entered the pregnancy period, and the physical examination news was not kept secret.
The head of the Kashi family was furious. I am such a suitable marriage partner! All those years of investment were wasted on a low-level male insect!
The Cash family intervened immediately, and the male insect could not survive the pressure of the hunt and died.
The second son was captured and brought back in disgrace. He committed suicide the following year, and their eggs were taken back by the Kashu family.
The Cash family did not initially expect the egg to have any good qualities.
The male father is just a low-level Sequence D who only dances and smiles for money. He has seen many military women in his life. He is willing to be with the second son of Cash. Isn't it because he is attracted by the strong foundation and wealth of the Cash family?
The egg naturally gave birth to a female worm.
The cub's name had already been engraved on a plaque on the incubator by its biological father: Anushka.
The head of the Kashi family was not happy about this. The word "Anushka" had a profound meaning, and it was a waste to use it on Kashi, who was destined to be a middle-class person.
Before Anushka turned 6, his family members had never called him by his name.
But! This female insect cub is 6 years old and has undergone its first complete metamorphosis. It is very perfect! The genetic test shows that he is extremely good, born with sharp ears and eyes, and a photographic memory. The most respected fighting talent of the insect tribe is instinct in him.
The Cash family was instantly embarrassed.
The female father and the male father really loved each other, and were really forced to death by their family.
The outstanding talent of the young insects caused the family to quickly increase their investment in training, and other cousins who were squeezed out of resources complained.
…
This foul-mouthed Kashi is also of a high class, three years older than Anushka who entered school at the age of 15. He has safely passed the adulthood stage and developed further, and is physically strong and experienced.
He suppressed Anushka, trying to completely shatter the halo of his family's genius, veto this airborne bug of humble birth, and prove that low-grade blood is ultimately just a flash in the pan.
He lost.
Anushka, who has only been enrolled for half a year, has learned all the combat courses for three years and specializes in targeting her cousin in the intramural competition.
Give someone a taste of their own medicine.
Anushka repeatedly defeated her cousin in the combat events that he was proud of, crushing his dignity and pride. After every game, she shook his hand and said: That's it?
…
Friend D recalled the past and remembered one scene vividly: Anushka with a round face stood in front of the loser, with a clear voice, looking down from above, and a pair of heterochromatic eyes that were empty and cold.
He said: "Your efforts and sweat are worthless in front of me."
So far, Friend D has never heard of this cousin of Cash being active in any field.
Since I can't sleep, I'll get up and gossip!
He murmured in his heart: "The last person who excited Anushka's emotions was defeated. Who will be the unlucky one this time?"
Friend D logged into the campus network account, created a small group with a few alumni with whom he had a good relationship, and excitedly started talking.
[You will never guess! Guess who came to my house today! And who spent 1 hour collecting 200 dating strategies! ] This article, file, is taken from group 13, 9494631
001: [Why is there still a group?]
002: [Denise, are you bored? Has your account been hacked?]
…
After a while of chatting in the group, friend D made a big move: [Winning player: Anushka! ]
001:[?]
002:[?]
003:[? ? ]
004:[Same name?]
004:[Is it my illusion? What’s the trend these days? Why are all the age-appropriate privileged species in love?]
Friend D: [Who is it? Besides Anushka, who else is acting weird?]
004: [Keep your mouth shut, don’t let it leak out. The day before yesterday, I was on duty, and I surrounded Jane’s house, and then…]
…
Friend D got even more excited in the second half of the night! Wow? Ah! Oh! They took turns to fuck me.
Early the next morning.
Friend D, with dark circles under his eyes, greeted Anushka in high spirits: “Hi!”
"Why do you have such a terrible expression on your face again?"
Anushka pinched her eyebrows and asked hoarsely, "Is there a car?"
Friend D understood immediately: "Overslept and missed the meeting?"
Anushka: “Yeah.”
Friend D started looking for his keys. "Thank you for not destroying my garage, or we would have walked into the city today. What meeting did you sleep through? I have a Harley and a Jeep here."
Anushka: "Haley. I need to take a shower and borrow a set of clothes."
Friend D: "What makes you think there's a bathroom in my garage?? Go roll around on the beach!"
Anushka: “I saw a tap behind the garage.”
Friend D had no choice but to dig through the closet in the ruins, shouting, "Transfer the money! It must be transferred immediately!"
They rested for a while, and before setting off, Denis wanted to split up with Anushka. Denis asked, "Will you drive the Black War God away after you finish the mission? When will you finish?"
Anushka got on the motorcycle and said, "Stop for a while, I want to stay in the capital Mondo for a few days."
"Hmm? Changed gender?"
Anushka said: "I have been considering transferring back to the First Army for the past two years. Now that I am on my way, I can go and see the First Army's capital station."
Denis immediately stuck his head out of the jeep window and asked incredulously: "Did the Rover treat you badly?"
Anushka didn’t want to say more: “No.”
Denis didn't ask about the depth of his interest and was very happy. The Wanderers were independent of the three parties and it was difficult for them to take advantage of the situation, but the Ten Armies were different! Anushka was still so strong. After being transferred back, she would definitely be a lieutenant general in one year and lead a branch army in three years! Rounding up! Thigh!
He patted the car door and said, "Then if you have some time these days, I will take you to a few Capital Alliance gatherings so that you can get to know the Capital Alliance female circle in advance."
Anushka nodded indifferently, stepped on the accelerator of the motorcycle, and disappeared on the coastal road like a golden lightning.
Over the next three days, Anushka dealt with the aftermath of the Eastern District bombing case, sat in on several hearings on the new law for the Wanderers and the Capital Alliance, and attended a number of important speeches on behalf of the Wanderers.
After the speech, the Wanderer Chief will take Anushka to attend a banquet held by the privileged class of the Capital Alliance to get to know each other and expand their network of connections. In three days, the Eastern University explosion case will be turned into a sealed paper record while they are toasting each other.
Thursday.
Capital League.
Anushka attends the last privileged party of the day and leaves for Black Hole Gate in the evening.
Friend D was walking with him and advised, "Alright, alright, look better. I know you can't bear this. It's the last game, just recognize your face. You haven't been back to the Capital Alliance for too long. Your image as the No. 1 female star of the 20th session is almost turning into the face of the Black God of War in the eyes of the public. Be more patient. Do you plan to stay like this after you are transferred back?"
Anushka, whose expression was so cold that it could keep a corpse fresh, said: "If you don't agree, challenge me head-on."
Friend D: “…”
"You have the power and you have the final say."
"Okay, God of War, wait a minute and I'll show you my face. Please give me some face. You look like a real villain right now."
Anushka glanced around the banquet hall. “Who?”
Denis took two glasses of champagne, handed one to Anoushka, leaned slightly, and said with a strange smile: "You know Janeen, right?"
Anushka was not interested, she hummed and looked down at the smart brain ring.
In the past few days, Fate only came online in the morning, sent a heartbeat voice message and then went offline. They didn't chat much anymore.
The sound of the heartbeat was getting stronger day by day. Anushka was patient enough. He recorded all the conversations. He attended meetings until he got angry, and attended banquets until he wanted to interrupt and listen to them whenever he wanted. He never took off his Bluetooth headphones.
Now, he is still listening.
Denis's voice kept coming into Anushka's ears.
Anoushka paused while shaking her champagne glass in boredom: "What did you just say? ...Who?"
Denis signaled him with his eyes to look at another luxurious entrance hall of the banquet. A group of insects entered, with a young insect with black hair and black eyes walking in the front, like a star surrounded by stars.
"That's him," said Denis.
"Tommy, our junior from the next class, he is serving in the interstellar forces. A week ago, he surrounded the summer palace of the Janening family and revealed that the eldest master Janening was in a lesbian relationship and was pursuing a virtual anchor. It was Fate Wynn, who has been very popular on the Internet recently. The eldest master sent harassing messages crazily, and his tone and words were malicious. He was unsuccessful and was deleted twice by the anchor. The Janening family has brought shame to the entire upper class circle. During this period, the eldest master has condescended to attend various banquets frequently. Recognize his face, the next generation heir of the Janening family."
Denis covered his face with his cup and said in a low voice, "He can actually feel for female insects? And give birth to deformed babies?"
Friend A didn't respond for a long time. Denis turned around to look and suddenly felt a chill on his back. He subconsciously stepped away.
The pair of heterochromatic pupils seemed empty and cold, making Chong feel uncertain.
Anushka took off one of her Bluetooth headphones and said, "Tell me the whole story from beginning to end."
