Carolina has been observing Shen Que.
Since the coup ended, Pei Ji disappeared from the battlefield.
It has been three months now.
Shen Que's daily routine is very regular.
He arrived at Carolina's study at eight o'clock in the morning to report on the progress of the investigation into Chu Yang's remnants.
In the afternoon go to Parliament or the First Fleet.
At night, I went to the Star Tower to retrieve the new jump point data, including all the warships, cargo ships, mechas of various levels, and personnel information passing through the jump point, and then I looked at it all night long.
During this period, whenever there was news of missing persons from the front line, Shen Que would put down whatever he was doing.
During this period, the Imperial Court was extremely busy investigating the coup plotters. The seven fleets were ordered to continue clearing out the remaining Zerg enemy forces in the empire and rebuilding the destroyed cities.
Now everything is over.
The Messiah held a grand celebration for the victorious generals, with parades, balls, and fireworks displays.
Shen is indeed the protagonist, but he did not participate.
The others tacitly kept silent about Pei Ji's disappearance, and also tacitly condoned Shen Que's absence.
In fact, no one thought that Pei Ji would really die.
That person seemed to have no connection with this word at all.
But he never came back.
It's been three months.
On the night of the celebration ceremony, Carolina found Shen Que at the top of the Star Tower.
He sat alone on the edge of the tower, looking at the brilliant fireworks on the sea.
Carolina was not very good at comforting children. She stood behind Shen Que and watched him quietly for nearly twenty minutes.
An enormous firework bloomed in the sky, and the light fell onto the sea.
Chen Que suddenly said, "He said he would take me back to Baisha Star to watch the fireworks."
His voice was surprisingly calm, as Carolina had recently observed.
Chen Que is still the same cold and indifferent Chen Que.
No matter what time, everything can be handled in an orderly manner.
Only occasionally, when he stopped working, Carolina would notice that Shen Que's gaze became a little dazed, as if focused on a place she couldn't see, and then slowly retracted, revealing a somewhat lonely look.
Carolina saw herself in this look.
Only at this moment did she truly realize it.
He loves him so much.
Carolina paused and said to Shen Que, “Ai Fan contacted me today and asked when you plan to go back.”
Because of the complexity of the aftermath work, Shen Que had stayed in Messiah for a long time, so long that the rainy season in the oasis came and went, and the cool harvest festival was about to come.
Shen Que suddenly remembered that Pei Ji seemed to have said that he would take him to the Desert Tavern for a drink during this year's Harvest Festival.
[Sand beer is the best at this time of year. I'll take you there secretly! Don't tell Dr. Li.]
At that time, he was still under Charles's dietary control and could not eat spicy food or drink alcohol.
Charles liked to make a fuss. Shen Que's body could actually digest irritating food a long time ago, but he still forced Pei Ji to wait until the Harvest Festival was over.
"I want..." Shen Que's throat rolled over, and another blooming firework was reflected in his dark eyes, "I want to go back with him."
The wind blew the stone around his neck and the earring in his left ear.
Shen Que grabbed the memory stone back and held it in his palm.
The smell of dry sand blocked out the salty and humid sea breeze, but Chen could still taste the salty flavor.
Carolina sighed softly, walked over to Shen Que, and handed him a button-sized device.
"Do you remember the artificial memory module implanted in you before you went to White Sand Planet?" Carolina said, "I destroyed the part that was exposed. This is the part before that."
Shen Que's eyes widened slightly.
He took the device, held it between his fingers and slowly turned it.
"Memory is a precious thing, don't waste it." Carolina explained lightly.
After she said this, she turned and left.
Shen Que stared at the recording device for a while before connecting it to the terminal.
When the picture appeared on the screen, he heard the deafening sound of his own heartbeat.
Because the memory fragments were extracted based on keywords, each fragment was incomplete, but to Shen Que's surprise, the number was more than he had expected.
A lot more.
He saw the dim ceiling and the familiar ruby chandelier.
The picture was shaking violently, and I seemed to be turning over and over. The scene in my sight was sometimes the ceiling and sometimes the window.
Anya and Demi surrounded him with towels. Pei Ji's nervous voice came from outside the room: "...I'm not asking that. I'm asking why he can't be marked?"
Then came Charles's scolding voice: "He has thirty-two broken bones, and you still want to mark him?"
Pei Ji's voice immediately weakened: "I don't intend to completely mark him... Look, it's written in his medical records that he can't use inhibitors. If he can't even bite, what will he do during his estrus period?"
Shen Que looked at the contents of the screen with great interest.
How novel.
He doesn't remember this memory.
Demi and Anya whispered in his ear:
[…Suppressants can’t be used…soothing agents can’t be used either?]
[The doctor said it's okay, but I just used a little bit...but my wife is very reluctant and doesn't feel very comfortable...]
[Except for the Admiral's pheromones, the others are useless...]
[Oh my god… what should I do…]
The scene changed, and it was daytime again. The ruby chandelier and ceiling were still there. The bedroom door was violently pushed open, and Pei Ji's face was just above his sight.
Demi's suppressed roar came from the side: "Look at what you've done! This is the third time!"
