…

The two people who took the oath with Tu Ran and entered the training base together were brothers, one was named Xiang Qian and the other Xiang Hou.

They had just moved from Hope Star to the Main Star three days ago. Hope Star was sandwiched between two desolate stars and could easily become the next target of the beasts, so the residents of Hope Star moved away one after another.

It had always been the brothers' wish to join the military.

Joining the military is the dream of everyone in this world.

But not everyone can do as they wish.

Enough manpower is needed behind the front lines to maintain the energy supply to the front lines and the normal life of the young and old in the safe zones, so many people can only go to the rear.

Because they had joined the ranks of reserve students together with Tu Ran, the two kept talking to Tu Ran about various things along the way, so Tu Ran was forced to listen to a meeting analyzing the situation in the Harnden galaxy.

Gained a deeper understanding of the world.

It was already evening when the three of them entered the training base, and it was time for the other reserve students to eat.

After Tu Ran completed the registration, she was taken to the restaurant, which was full of military reserve students wearing uniform dark green training uniforms.

Those who have been to the battlefield are called soldiers, and those who have not been to the battlefield and are still in training are called reserve students.

The Harnden Galaxy recruits reserve personnel twice a year, including military reserve students, mecha graduate students, and reserve personnel for various logistics departments.

Recruitment is once in the first half of the year and once in the second half of the year.

Now is the recruitment time for the second half of the year, and new people are coming to report one after another. The arrival of Tu Ran and the other two did not attract much attention.

Tu Ran took the meal and sat down at a random table with an empty seat.

Each dining table can seat eight people, and Xiang Qian and Xiang Hou sat opposite her.

The three of them were already very familiar with each other at this time.

Tu Ran looked at the food on the plate: steamed buns, egg drop soup, a vegetarian dish and a meat dish. Although not rich, it was nutritionally balanced and made from real ingredients.

The ecological environment of this world has not been destroyed. In the process of rapid economic and technological development, the rulers of the Harnden galaxy have always paid great attention to environmental protection, and the food people eat daily is all natural.

Tu Ran was eating with gusto when someone sat down next to her.

Tu Ran turned her head and saw a little girl with twin ponytails. She had a nice appearance, a sweet smile and dimples.

After the little girl put down her plate, she greeted her in a familiar manner, "My name is Ai Meigui, and I'm from Hope Star. What's yours?"

She stretched out a hand towards Tu Ran, who put down his chopsticks and politely held her hand. "My name is Tu Ran, and I'm from..." Tu Ran paused, "Desolate Planet."

Ai Meigui's eyes lit up, "Which number is the Desolate Planet?"

"Number one." Tu Ran said.

The first Rose Planet to be destroyed was called Desolate Planet One, and the second and third Rose Planets to be destroyed were named Desolate Planet Two and Desolate Planet Three respectively.

Ai Meigui showed the same expression as everyone who had heard that she was from the Desolate Planet.

This is also the reason why Tu Ran hesitated before.

She was really frightened by the sympathetic, excited, and cautious expressions these people gave her.

"Desolate Star No. 1 is also my hometown." Ai Meigui held Tu Ran's hand affectionately, as if she was holding a long-time friend. "Our family has always lived on Rose Star. The year I was born, our family moved to Hope Star for some reasons. As soon as we left, a herd of beasts broke out on Rose Star, and we escaped the disaster. Do you know why I am called Ai Meigui? It is to commemorate Rose Star." Tu Ran listened carelessly. She just wanted to eat. She hadn't eaten for a day and she was hungry.

Hearing Ai Meigui mention Hope Star, Tu Ran quickly turned the topic to the two brothers opposite, "What a coincidence, you have a good relationship with them, they are from Hope Star."

Ai Meigui's eyes lit up again, and she immediately took the food tray and walked up to the two brothers to ask them questions. Tu Ran took this opportunity to quickly eat the food.

Tu Ran and Ai Meigui have a deep bond.

I was assigned to a dormitory that night.

There were only two of them living in the triple dormitory.

That night, Ai Meigui took her around the entire training base, and it was already ten o'clock when they returned to the dormitory.

Tu Ran's dark green training suit was neatly folded on her desk, along with a box of daily necessities.

Ai Meigui leaned on the edge of the box and saw some women's products and clothes in the box. She sighed, "General Ye is so nice. She must have heard that you came from the Desolate Planet and have no father or mother, so she prepared these for you."

Tu Ran was also somewhat moved. After packing the items in the box, she lay on her back on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and Ai Meigui walked out, wiping her hair.

"It's true. She lives with me now. I'll prove it to you right away."

Ai Meigui is on the phone.

Tu Ran sat up and heard what Ai Meigui said on the phone.

Ai Meigui, wearing a bathrobe, walked straight towards her. In front of her, a green light curtain was hanging in the air, with two people displayed on it.

It's a video call.

What puzzled Tu Ran the most was why this light curtain could be suspended in front of Ai Meigui. Ai Meigui did not do anything. Both of her hands were drying her hair. She was wearing a bathrobe and did not have any high-tech equipment on her.

While she was wondering, Ai Meigui had already walked up to her, sat next to her on the bed, put one arm around her shoulders and gently waved the other hand. The light curtain moved away and then grew larger, and the two people inside became the same size as real people. Except for being more transparent, there was no difference from meeting face to face.

"Sister Tu Ran, they are my parents. I told them that my roommate escaped from Desolate Planet No. 1, but they refused to believe me and insisted on asking you in person. Please help me and tell them to prove that I am not bragging."

Tu Ran had no choice but to repeat to the two people on the screen the story she had told countless times today.

She has now perfected the story to the point where it is impeccable, with all the details filling it up.

These people haven't received any news from the Desolate Planet for nearly twenty years, so no matter how she makes it up, she can't make any mistakes.

As expected, Ai Meigui's parents were moved to tears by Tu Ran's story, and her mother cried while leaning on her father's shoulder.

Ai Meigui comforted them for a while before hanging up the phone.

As she said "bye", the light curtain disappeared directly, and she was clearly not in any posture.

Tu Ran had not seen anything similar when she read Liu Wan’s memory before, and she did not notice this thing when she read the minister’s memory later. Just now, she took advantage of Ai Meigui holding her hand and read Ai Meigui’s memory again, but did not find this thing.

The most likely possibility is that this thing is so trivial and so common that no one pays much attention to it.

Tu Ran asked directly.

"Ah? Video?" Ai Meigui was stunned. "Are you talking about the eye crystal?"

"Eye?"
