Chapter 29

Chapter 29

He Yunting looked at him.

The omega seemed to have very little physical strength. He ran over too quickly and could only breathe with his mouth open. His face was slightly red from his uneven breathing. His eyes were very bright, like the pure and precious obsidian of the empire.

He stretched out his hand as if wanting to help Lin Han, but was afraid that his action would be too abrupt, so he could only keep a straight face, with only a tiny bit of worry revealed in his deep blue eyes.

But he understood that Lin Han must have something to say to him when he suddenly came to see him. He walked over and closed the door of the command room, and confirmed again that the communicator in the room that communicated with the outside world was not turned on. Then he said to Lin Han, "What's the matter?"

He did not ask Wen Tianyao back immediately, nor did he say "yes" or "believe it".

The word "believe" has hardly ever appeared in He Yunting's life.

Compared to this somewhat vague and uncertain emotion, command and mission are the words engraved in his life.

He was the decision maker and the one giving orders in the base. Even though Lu Anhe had followed him the longest and could be a little more relaxed in addressing him or on certain matters, he never broke the rules.

Like most people in the base, his words are orders, no one will object, and no one can disobey.

As for the empire, whether it was the royal family or the common people, he was always loyal and resolute, without any other emotions.

He has always been straightforward. Lu Anhe sometimes says that he lacks a lot compared to ordinary people.

Therefore, He Yunting didn't quite understand what this word meant, and as he was naturally rigorous, he couldn't immediately answer yes or no for a moment.

Even so, he looked at the person in front of him, and something beyond reason flooded his mind. He was almost unwilling to think about it and wanted to say "yes" and "I believe you" immediately.

But he can't.

The people mentioned by the other party all have very high status and position. Even if he does not like Wen Tianyao, he cannot deny the fact that he will inherit the empire in the future.

He wanted to be loyal to the country as a whole rather than to the royal family.

Lin Han saw that He Yunting's eye color changed again and again, and he reorganized his words.

There was a moment that was not very rational. He wanted to tell him that he had special powers. As long as he reached out and touched others, he would know what the other person was thinking at that moment.

If He Yunting didn't believe it, he would grab his hand and read out what he was thinking at the moment, word by word.

But he can't.

The other person is so cold and reserved, but I knew his thoughts without his permission.

Not to mention how He Yunting would feel after knowing his past thoughts, he even wanted to read out the words in his mind as if he were executing him -

This was undoubtedly like stripping all his pride away bit by bit and then trampling it hard underfoot.

Lin Han looked into the other person's deep blue eyes and suddenly felt a lot of reluctance.

"I say..." Lin Han changed his tone and said, "I can tell the general something. As for whether to believe it or not, it's up to the general to decide."

The gun that He Yunting gave him last time was still on him. Ever since He Yunting said those words that day, Lin Han began to deliberately avoid using the word "you" in his words, sometimes replacing it with "you" and sometimes with "general".

In order to make He Yunting believe it, Lin Han could only make the matter sound a little more serious.

"His Royal Highness has come to see me before, more than once." Lin Han did not lie, but remained calm. "Before he came today, I heard what he said on the communicator at work."

He Yunting listened quietly, his eyes focused.

"To be honest, I have considered whether he was the one who assassinated the general last time," Lin Han said. "I said before that I would help the general, so I started to pay attention to him. He came to me today and kept mentioning you to me."

Lin Han saw He Yunting raised his eyebrows, but still kept his lips tightly closed.

"I can't tell the general about some of the details, but I can guarantee with my professional ethics and my life that what I'm going to say next is true."

"His Royal Highness found me, including..." Lin Han was about to say, including that what he said about getting along well with me was a lie, but he quickly realized that if he said this, it would mean admitting the fact that he was pretending to sleep. He put his tongue against his teeth and changed the sentence, "including his position."

"He is different from the general. He did not remain neutral... I heard that he had contact with Mr. Luo Qi."

He Yunting's expression suddenly became stern.

"The assassination may not really have anything to do with him, because his purpose is..." Lin Han took a breath, paused and slowed down, and continued a little embarrassedly, "He wants to use me to get close to the general. He thinks... you care about me more, and as long as he persuades me to have a close relationship with you..., he can start with me and make you... make the general submit to Mr. Luo Qi's side."

Lin Han stuttered when saying this, after all, in Wen Tianyao's mind, he and He Yunting were almost a foregone conclusion.

He tried to add a few more sentences, trying to tell He Yunting all the information he had heard from Wen Tianyao.

Lin Han actually only had some understanding of the two factions in the parliament, so he didn't know the deep relationship, but no matter what, he still wanted to tell the other party everything he could hear.

If he didn't have this ability, and things really went as Wen Tianyao planned, and He Yunting was no longer neutral, how would the political situation change, and whether it would be good or bad for the empire... he didn't know.

After Lin Han finished speaking, he calmed his breath and said, "This is all I know. I don't know how this information can be of use to the general, but I would feel even worse if I didn't tell you."

"It's up to the general whether you believe it or not. I just want to tell you this fact."

He Yunting moved his fingers and then walked towards Lin Han.

"I see," he said. "I'll think about it."

He didn't say directly that he believed, nor did he say directly that he didn't believe.

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't disappointed, but Lin Han still smiled and bowed to He Yunting.

"Then I'll leave." Lin Han stood up straight and looked at He Yunting.

The other party did not respond. After two seconds, he spoke hesitantly.

"Did he hurt you?"

Lin Han was stunned for a moment, but soon he understood who that "he" was from He Yunting's words.

He wanted to ask himself whether Wen Tianyao hurt him or threatened him when he approached him.

Lin Han felt a little warm in his heart, and the disappointment of whether He Yunting trusted him or not was slightly dispelled. He looked up and smiled at him: "No."

"Then I'll leave." Lin Han said again.

He Yunting did not stop him this time and stood where he was.

But the one who walked to the door and stopped again was Lin Han this time.

Lin Han couldn't explain what he was feeling, but he suddenly recalled the scene when He Yunting wanted to shake hands with him awkwardly when he was leaving this place.

At that time, He Yunting, as usual, said one thing and meant another and said "Goodbye, Mr. Lin" twice, just because he wanted to shake his hand.

Lin Han turned around.

He Yunting held the coat that Lin Han had returned to him in his hand, without saying a word, as if he didn't know whether he should do the same as last time.

Inexplicable emotions were at work. There was clearly no reason for He Yunting to read his mind this time, and he did not say anything. However, Lin Han still took two steps forward and extended his hand: "Well, goodbye, General."

Lin Han was actually a little scared. What would happen if He Yunting refused this time? Would she be embarrassed?

However, He Yunting did not give Lin Han a chance to think about this. He quickly covered her with his big hand and said, "Goodbye."

[I should have believed Mr. Lin.] 】

Hearing this, Lin Han was stunned for a moment and did not pull his hand out immediately.

Then he heard another sentence.

【So Mr. Lin didn't get along with him.】 】

This "he" obviously also refers to Wen Tianyao.

-

The second stage of the selection has officially ended, and it is another brutal round of elimination. Now those who remain are basically the best among people, with excellent mental and physical strength.

The alpha named Qi Jiamu still ranks first, with a big gap between him and the second place.

The third stage is the actual testing of mechas. Batches of mechas begin to be allocated to the pilots who have passed the two rounds of selection and begin a new test.

Different from the physical training in the first stage and the virtual cabin in the second stage, all the training in the third stage is real training, so the risk is not small and the consumption is huge.

Lin Han was also the busiest during this period, as he needed to frequently debug and repair the mechas. Sometimes, depending on the batches of the mechas, he would have to temporarily re-enter the system based on the pilot's mental strength, and then hand it over to the pilot after calculation and testing.

So on this day, Lin Han saw Qi Jiamu, the legendary best alpha of this batch, on the training ground.

His mental power is SS, which is already very high, and the mecha randomly assigned to him is from the previous batch. Lin Han has to use Qi Jiamu's mental power sample and modify it slightly.

"Hello, Mr. Lin." Qi Jiamu looked very young. Even though he looked very determined during training, he still had a youthful air when communicating with others.

He was very polite and handed his spiritual power sample to Lin Han: "Thank you, Mr. Lin."

Lin Han nodded to him and said "No thanks", then started working.

Because many recruits had their eyes glued to Lin Han and had their points deducted, no one dared to look at him secretly this time. Everyone kept their eyes fixed on him and prepared for training.

When He Yunting walked into the training ground, he saw this scene with satisfaction.

Since it was real training and it was also the first day, he, as the commander, did not stay in the command room, but followed Lu An and inspected the reserve pilots who entered the third round.

He Yunting knew the list by heart and scanned it one by one without finding anything unusual.

The training ground began to announce various precautions for the third round.

Lin Han moved quickly. When he finished processing the system and got out of the mecha, He Yunting was standing right in front of him.

It was two days since the last time she saw him. Lin Han greeted He Yunting politely, did not disturb him again, and went back to work.

Because the tasks in the third stage are more complicated, Lin Han's room is some distance away from the current training ground. In order to facilitate summoning, he did not choose to go back, but stayed in the operation room in the training ground to observe whether there is anything unusual with these mechas.

Lin Han was really busy today and had no time to talk to He Yunting. He just kept running around the training ground and the operation room. When there was a situation, he would go down to check, and come back after it was dealt with.

Only after all the training for the day was completed did Lin Han walk back to the operation room, ready to take today's work records and go back to rest.

When he opened the door, he saw He Yunting, who should have gone home, sitting on a chair with a nutritional supplement in his hand.

Seeing Lin Han coming, He Yunting didn't say much, but handed the thing in his hand to him.

"Thank you." The nutrient solution was indeed unscrewed. Lin Han thanked He Yunting without any effort.

He Yunting's expression remained unchanged.

After that day, Wen Tianyao never came again, and the two seemed to have a tacit understanding and did not mention the matter at the same time.

Lin Han was lucky enough as he was too busy these days and didn’t have time to take care of it. Moreover, before leaving that day, he also heard the other party’s words “should believe” in his heart.

That's enough.

But He Yunting didn't.

He has been in a strange dilemma these past two days.

He knew that he couldn't rashly say that he believed Lin Han, but since he didn't say it that day, he couldn't find a way to break the subtle silence between them.

Lin Han finished the nutrient solution and prepared to return to his room.

"General, I'm leaving first." He said to He Yunting, not knowing what He Yunting was thinking at the moment.

The other party nodded.

The atmosphere between the two became weird.

Lin Han looked at He Yunting who was silent, and always felt that there was something strange about him these past two days.

After all, he couldn't see anything without reading minds, but his intuition told him that something was wrong with He Yunting.

It was as if he wanted to talk to himself, but in the end he stopped talking because he was tongue-tied.

He originally hated the idea of ​​passively hearing other people's thoughts, so he always wore gloves.

But He Yunting is different. Even if Lin Han has no idea what the other party is thinking every time, he won't feel uncomfortable.

Lin Han's mind moved.

Why not give it a try?

"General." Lin Han said to He Yunting hesitantly, "Do we still need to shake hands today?"

I guess no one would believe it if I told them that a mecha master who deals with a bunch of cold metal and complicated procedures all day long, and an imperial admiral who never smiles or talks, are now face to face and asking if they want to shake hands.

Although the picture is strange, it is harmonious.

He Yunting seemed unwilling to admit it directly. He had a stern face and no one knew what he was thinking. However, he did not refuse directly, but just looked at Lin Han.

Lin Han suddenly had a strange idea that he was coaxing this person.

The word "哄" itself is strange and abrupt when used in this situation.

But when he saw He Yunting's expression, he couldn't help but think so.

It was hard to describe the emotion. Lin Han walked up to He Yunting, looked at the man sitting on the chair, and extended his hand like the last time they said goodbye.

"General," he said with a smile, his voice light and quick, which somehow reminded He Yunting of the purple tulips in his own manor that had not yet bloomed, which always gave him a light and easy pleasure, "Give me your hand."

He Yunting's expression changed subtly. Even though he still looked cold and unapproachable, he still listened to Lin Han and did as he was told.

His hands were big and warm, and even though years of training had left thick calluses on them, they had a reassuring touch that was different from anyone else's.

The young man smiled faintly, but his eyes were gentle. His fingers were long and white, and they fell on He Yunting's palm.

At this moment, he suddenly had an impulse.

Lin Han's fingertips were slightly cool, and the moment they touched He Yunting's palm, he said, "If I say that I can read minds and know everything the general is thinking... do you believe it?"
