Chapter 1168: Something's happened in space!!!
Minister Zhang smiled and sat in the driver's seat. After everyone was seated, he took them flying in that direction.
This is a corner of the five-pointed star spaceport.
"It's actually green vegetables!!"
"That's right! These are the vegetables and fruits I've grown here! The staff here don't go down here all year round, and they can't just drink nutrient solutions all the time. We Chinese people, no matter where we go, always want to grow something. This place is also a way for the staff to de-stress!"
Gu Yin looked at the exceptionally well-grown vegetables: "How do these vegetables taste? Are they sweet?"
Minister Zhang shook his head: "It's just a rough idea of growing vegetables. They're not sweet, but edible. However, we're still researching it."
"Over there, that place that looks like a small city."
"That's where our staff live. There are shops and streets inside. It's quite small, but this model is based on the Space Future City plan, so it's not fully developed yet."
The spaceport employs tens of thousands of people, and it's quite reasonable for the area to be considered a small town.
Looking out from the spaceport, Gu Yin was surprised to find something in the distance.
"What's that? No, wait, isn't that our country's space station?!"
Minister Zhang laughed heartily: "That's right, that's our space station! We've also built other resupply points in other orbits, and we're exploring the moon as well. I believe that in the near future, we'll have resupply stations on every planet! Then, no matter where you are, you'll be able to find your way home!"
Gu Yin and Chu Yan exchanged a glance, then smiled and turned away.
Hopefully, it will really work out in the future.
After the visit, Gu Yin and the others returned to the fighter jet area.
Gu Yin looked at the dark space and the colorful nebulae.
An idea suddenly popped into my head.
"Can we take a flight in our fighter jets and fly around the area now?"
Minister Zhang was surprised: "Nearby ones are fine, but those farther away are not so good. Whether it's galaxies or interstellar space, there are many black holes. You haven't flown there before. If you go alone, you might get sucked in. Maybe we should just forget about it?"
"It's alright, I'll be nearby. I'll have the phoenixes wait around us. We'll try flying around once and then come back. We have to take that first step eventually, right? If not this time, then next time! Besides, there are our country's staff on the moon. We can fly there from here and then come back. But what if other countries find out?"
"It's okay, you can't see it. Do you really want to go?"
Gu Yin nodded; she really wanted to go and see.
"I'll go too!"
"I'm going too!"
Gu Yin frowned upon hearing this: "There are too many people, this won't work."
"Then let's multiply by two, in pairs."
"That's fine," Gu Yin agreed.
"Don't fly around recklessly. Stay focused. Space is not land. If something happens, it won't be so easy to rescue you! Follow behind us. Blue Flame, you bring up the rear."
"Received!" The group boarded the Luan Bird warship, located the two-person piloted fighter jet, and awaited the order to take off.
"The route has been arranged, and it's all in your fighter jets. Don't wander off, be careful, and take off."
Minister Zhang's voice came from inside the fighter jet.
Gu Yin pressed the button: "Are you ready?"
Chu Yan, who was standing next to him, nodded: "Alright."
"take off!"
At Gu Yin's command, the fighter jets flew off the Luan Bird warship along their trajectory!
Flying into the deep, dark space!
Flying along the prepared route, we didn't encounter any difficulties.
"It's almost like flying a plane."
"Don't be arrogant. The route has been set for you. It's easy as long as there's no enemy attack, but if there is an enemy attack now and you go off track, do you still think it's easy?"
"I was just kidding. Of course I know it's not easy. But when will we be doing exercises here?"
"I just told you not to be arrogant, and you've already started aiming too high. You've barely learned to run, and you already want to fly? You haven't even explored space properly yet!"
Gu Yin listened to the discussion but did not participate; instead, she looked straight ahead.
The view was expansive, with countless stars stretching as far as the eye could see.
They look close, but there's actually quite a distance between them.
"001, if we want to leave, where will you take us from?"
This area is all within the monitoring range and can be seen.
"It definitely won't be here. We'll cause an accident, so don't worry. But here, you'd better not call me too often, or I'm afraid my energy will be detected."
After all, the stuff here is just as good as what's at the base, and it's all used to capture unknown substances!
Okay.
"Is that our country's spaceship up ahead?"
Gu Yin, upon hearing Chu Yan's voice, snapped out of her reverie and nodded: "It should be. Everyone, please be careful not to get close or linger. The spaceship is being monitored in real time. If you don't want to appear in the news broadcast, please don't get close to it."
After Gu Yin finished speaking, she also informed Minister Zhang.
After receiving the news, Minister Zhang sent a message to the space agency on Earth.
"Special personnel are approaching the emergency area; switch to the spacecraft cabin."
"Switched".
"Comrade Zhou, you may proceed."
"receive."
Gu Yin, who had originally planned to return, continued flying forward as planned.
"Wow, it really is just like what I saw on the news, all mud and rocks. It feels a bit like our Northwest China, don't you think?"
"Indeed, but there's no water source here, just liquid water, which is a bit of a shame."
"There is water ice here. If we were to turn this place into a second Blue Star, it wouldn't be impossible, but we might not be able to see it."
"The shadowed part of the moon is where water ice exists. Look, it's right in front of us."
"There are people or things moving around there!"
"It must be a robot left behind by the staff."
This is normal; robots will be here to perform sampling.
As the fighter jet approached, the robot seemed to sense something, stopped, and looked over.
"No! They're not robots! They're humans!!!"
Gu Yin saw it too and immediately contacted Minister Zhang.
“I asked, and he was just a staff member who went out to work temporarily. He’ll be back soon. It’s fine. You can continue flying your own flights. They know you’re there.”
Just as Gu Yin was about to close the passage, she saw the staff member in the spacesuit floating rapidly toward them!
However, halfway there, he returned to his original spot.
After two such incidents, Gu Yin realized something was wrong.
Chu Yan realized it too! He immediately stopped the fighter jet in place.
"Minister Zhang..."
"Gu Yin! Something's happened! Our comrades on the spaceship have sent a message! The location of the sampling team and the return capsule data are intermittent!! They need to exit the capsule to rescue people! You all need to evacuate immediately!"
Gu Yin watched the staff members disappearing one after another and pressed the accelerator button hard!
"It's too late!"
