The sculpture of Lu Jun is based on the holographic image left by Lu Jun himself. The height is accurate to one millimeter, and even the curvature of the nails is extremely precise.

He is dressed in military uniform, holding a long gun in his left hand, looking into the distance. On the base of the sculpture, there is his epitaph, which is just four words written on iron and silver hooks: "Only for the Alliance." Only for

the Alliance, move forward courageously.

Lu Fenghan couldn't count how many times he had sat in front of this sculpture, so that every stroke of these words was clearly reflected in his mind.

He even thought that if one day he died on the front line, regardless of whether he could get a sculpture in the Sky Diamond Square, he must use these four words as his epitaph.

Only for the Alliance.

Just a few words, the meaning is very profound and particularly intimidating.

He tilted his head and asked Qi Yan: "When you die in the future, what will be written on your epitaph?"

Qi Yan looked at the sculpture in front of them with him and replied: "I've thought about it before. I wanted to write, 'In the darkness, I once chased a ray of fire.'"

"It sounds a bit... sad?" Lu Fenghan put his hands in his trouser pockets, "You are only nineteen years old now. What are you thinking about your epitaph? Death? The average age of humans in the Alliance is over a hundred years old. You still have a long way to go." He

completely forgot that a few seconds ago, he was the one who took the initiative to ask Qi Yan what kind of epitaph he wanted to write.

Qi Yan whispered back, "Not necessarily."

Lu Fenghan had sharp ears: "What do you mean?"

Qi Yan was not ready to answer. Coincidentally, a young man walked over with the projection function of his personal terminal turned on, showing densely packed words. He came over and said, "Although the average age of humans in the Alliance is now over 100, it was not the case during the technological apocalypse! At that time, people were dying on every planet in the Alliance. Sometimes, in the blink of an eye, an entire planet was wiped out!

However, having such a tragedy as a lesson is not enough. The Alliance still does not repent and advocates the vigorous development of technology, and still invests countless funds and manpower every year. !”

Lu Fenghan raised his eyebrows: “You support the rebels?”

The young man smiled: “I don’t support anyone, I just oppose the Alliance’s continued development of technology and its own destruction!”

Lu Fenghan tapped the personal terminal on the young man’s wrist: “If the Alliance does not develop technology, where will your personal terminal come from? What you eat every day are all the food grown from seeds cultivated in the laboratory and concentratedly planted. The reason you can stand here safely and talk to me about these illogical things is because the entire capital star is covered by a defensive cage developed by scientists, and not a single shell can hit it. Moreover,”

he pointed to the sculpture of Lu Jun behind him.

“He and the starship he was on disappeared under the muzzle of the rebels’ artillery fire. How dare you stand here and tell us that you oppose the Alliance’s development of technology? If the protection level of Lu Jun’s starship was the same as it is now, the rebels’ artillery fire would not have been able to kill him.”

Lu Fenghan’s tone was exceptionally calm, but he seemed to be born with a fierceness, like a long sword that had been soaked in blood, pointing directly at people’s hearts.

"You--"

The young man unconsciously took a half step back and wanted to say something else, but Lu Fenghan interrupted him with contempt: "Besides, you believe whatever the rebels say. Do you know what they are planning secretly? Maybe your brain fell into a wormhole during the interstellar jump and you forgot to bring it back?"

This wonderful description made Qi Yan couldn't help but glance at Lu Fenghan.

And he kept it in mind silently-this is his shortcoming, write it down, maybe he can use it directly in the future.

And the young man didn't dare to stay any longer, turned around and walked away quickly, searching for the next target of "preaching".

After confronting him, Lu Fenghan felt refreshed, turned around and looked at Lu Jun's eyes looking into the distance, thinking, you are still useful-using as an example, the effect is excellent.

After walking half a circle around the Diamond Square, it was getting dark, and the double moons appeared on the sky. The crowd began to gather in the center of the square.

Qi Yan didn't understand: "What are they watching?" "

The famous fountain show in the central area is about to begin. It is said that the design was inspired by the shadow play of the Earth era. The characters are condensed into water, and the water curtain and holographic projection form the background. There are 360 ​​days a year, and the performances are different every day. Let's go and see it?"

The closer to the center of the square, the more people there are. Lu Fenghan protected the people by his side, and with his aura, he forced Qi Yan to the front row.

The fountain had already begun to change, and there was still a wisp of water vapor in the air. While waiting, Qi Yan asked Lu Fenghan: "Have you seen it before?"

"No, when I was a child, my parents were busy and had no time to bring me here. Later, they died, and no one brought me here. After that, I went to school. I was in my rebellious period at that time and looked down on things that amused children." Later

, he left Leto and went to the front line of the Southern Cross Region and never came back.

This was the first time the two talked about the past and their families.

Qi Yan nodded: "I haven't seen it either. I'll keep you company."

Someone was pushing forward from behind. Lu Fenghan stepped aside half a step, half of him protecting Qi Yan. He lowered his eyes and asked: "Are you comforting me?"

Being so close, he found a very light mole on Qi Yan's earlobe. It looked like the tip of a pen had been washed in water, and only a little ink was used to dot on rice paper. It was not easy to find.

Inexplicably, Lu Fenghan was happy because of this tiny discovery.

At this time, the crowd exclaimed, and the light in front of them began to change. A transparent and dreamy world appeared in front of everyone.

Lu Fenghan watched for half a minute, and his gaze turned to Qi Yan again.

Qi Yan watched very seriously, as if he wanted to remember this scene. The gorgeous light and shadow reflected in his pupils made Lu Fenghan inexplicably think of the distant and beautiful nebulae in the universe.

He shifted his gaze, looking past the peaceful and happy faces of countless people, and looked in the direction of the sculpture group, thinking, "Just for the Alliance", thousands of light years away, the purpose of the expeditionary cannons may be to protect and defend this simple stability.

Returning home from the Sky Diamond Plaza, Lu Fenghan held the joystick loosely and asked Qi Yan: "What are you thinking about? You've been in a daze, and your eyes don't move."

Maybe because of his good looks, Qi Yan looked a bit like a beautiful 3D-printed mannequin.

Qi Yan came back to his senses: "I'm recalling the fountain show just now."

"You like it so much? You can come and see it next time."

"No need," Qi Yan shook his head, "I've memorized it. When I want to see it in the future, I can just recall it."

Lu Fenghan had met many people with strong memories. Hearing Qi Yan say this, he was not surprised. He just asked casually: "Can you remember everything you have seen?"

"Yes, as long as you have seen it, you can remember it."

Lu Fenghan thought, it turns out that at home, Qi Yan was not practicing turning pages every time he flipped through the pages quickly with his e-reader.

"If it is something very sad, and you want to forget it but can't, will you be very sad?"

Without answering this question directly, Qi Yan said softly after a while: "So, forgetting is a gift from fate."

Turan Academy will start on September 2nd.

The day before school starts, Xia Zhiyang and Chen Mingxuan gathered at Qi Yan's house. Chen Mingxuan played games with a game terminal, and Xia Zhiyang was miserable facing the unfinished homework.

"Have you noticed that there are more people outside recently? Many students whose families are not in Leto will come here in advance, especially those from the distant planets in the Messier and Kepler regions. They are said to come a week or half a month in advance to avoid accidents."

Xia Zhiyang typed and talked at the same time, a typical example of multitasking.

Qi Yan sat aside reading a book and asked casually, "Rebels?"

"That's not the case. The chance of encountering the rebels is still low. The rebels are a bit too far away from here."

After writing a page of questions, Xia Zhiyang clicked submit, and quickly opened another page, and then continued, "It's a waterway problem. Most of the civilian waterways connecting the central area and other large areas of the alliance were built before the great technological destruction. Later, in the blink of an eye, most of the waterways were destroyed. So the waterways we use now are all repaired and maintained, and there will be small problems from time to time. Three years ago

, a few sophomores came to Leto on a starship. When they were hopping through a wormhole, something went wrong with the route. They said they were only trapped in the wormhole for eight hours, but when they came out, they found that they had already finished half of the Turan course. "

Chen Mingxuan continued: "Then they spent the second half of the semester catching up on course progress and homework, with dark circles under their eyes every day as if they were about to die, and finally managed to get a C at the end of the semester."

"Yes, yes, it's too bad!" Xia Zhiyang also explained to Qi Yan, "Although you can spend money to get into Turan, if you get a few Ds at the end of the semester, you will have to pack up and leave."

He also advised Qi Yan: "If you feel that you can't keep up after taking a few classes after school starts, you must apply for a downgrade! Although being downgraded is embarrassing, it is better than being expelled!"

Qi Yan nodded: "Okay, I get it. But I won't fall behind."

He just looked at Xia Zhiyang's homework, and the knowledge points are all the basics of the basics.

There is no difficulty.

"Okay," rubbing his sore hands, Xia Zhiyang sighed again, "When I think about the fact that I will often run into Jiang Qi in school after the start of the semester, I feel sad!"

Chen Mingxuan continued: "He is also studying artificial intelligence, the same major, maybe he will take classes in the same building. If he takes a public class--"

"In the same classroom?" Xia Zhiyang completely lost the mood to do homework, with a serious face, "I think it is urgent for the alliance to promote distance education!"

The next day, the school sent all the textbook information to everyone's personal terminal through registration information. Qi Yan flipped through all the books and put them aside, continuing to do the modeling that he had not finished in the past two days.

The suspended car stopped outside the gate of Turan College, the doors slid open to the sides, and Qi Yan got out.

Because it was the first day of school, the school gate was noisy with people coming and going. But after Qi Yan got off the car, the voices nearby became a little lower, and many eyes were cast over.

Lu Fenghan turned on the automatic driving system and let the suspended car find a parking space by itself. He strode to Qi Yan's side to block most of the gazes.

He was like a beast in the jungle, guarding a rare flower, and was vaguely displeased by the peeping of others.

When he stepped into the gate, the ground was wet, and there were water droplets hanging on the tips of the leaves. It was obvious that it had just rained.

Qi Yan turned around and compared it to the dry ground outside the school gate.

"Do you think you are hallucinating? Hahaha, it just rained in the school, and the rainfall was precisely controlled within the range of Turan."

Xia Zhiyang hurriedly caught up from behind, "You came too fast, didn't you go out together? I am obviously much closer than you!"

Qi Yan looked at Lu Fenghan silently.

Someone drives a suspended car, and every time it is too fast, the system in the car will alarm.

And Lu Fenghan heard that Turan occupies a large area, in order to facilitate management, even the rain is all at once, and I don't know how many times he sighed. It's

really rich!

In comparison, the so-called "unpredictable climate conditions of the First Military Academy are to train your on-the-spot reaction and response capabilities. Allied soldiers, regardless of the scorching sun, rain or snow, must be able to fight bravely and kill the enemy!"

In fact, in the final analysis, they have no money and cannot afford the climate monitoring and control system.

There is only a river between them, but the distance between the rich and the poor is as far as the Milky Way!

The three of them walked in together. Xia Zhiyang was familiar with it and led the way in front, while introducing the distribution of buildings in the school to Qi Yan.

"Turan Academy is the first school established after humans settled in Leto. It is said that there were only a few buildings at the beginning, and then they were continuously expanded and expanded to form the current scale. Because any sculpture on the roadside is an antique and very valuable, our school is also called 'the first wealthy family in Leto'!"

Lu Fenghan lazily replied: "It's not 'the first corrupt in Leto', but 'the most prodigal son in the alliance'. ?”

Xia Zhiyang looked like he had been stabbed in the foot, his baby face was red with anger: “This is a derogatory name! It was deliberately created by the First Military Academy across the river! I, Turan, and their First Military Academy are irreconcilable!”

He was surprised again, “But how did you know?”

Lu Fenghan was very perfunctory: “I heard it from others.”

At this time, he noticed from the corner of his eye that Qi Yan’s eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and his steps paused and he stopped moving.

“What’s wrong?”

Qi Yan replied: “My shoelaces are loose.”

Lu Fenghan then saw that Qi Yan’s white shoelaces were dragged on the ground and had been rubbed dirty - the ground was wet because it had just rained heavily, and there were many dead leaves and mud spots.

After a month of getting along, Lu Fenghan found that his employer was not only a little spoiled, but also very picky. Not only is he picky, he also has a minor problem of cleanliness.

Also, his life skills are infinitely close to zero.

He handed the cup in his hand to Qi Yan: "Here."

Qi Yan took it.

Then he saw Lu Fenghan squatting in front of him, preparing to tie his shoelaces.

Qi Yan held the warm cup of water and lowered his head and asked: "Is that kind of bow okay?"

He had so many requests.

After swearing in his heart, Lu Fenghan flexibly tied a bow for Qi Yan.
