Lu Liran and Ke Ji went back to the hotel.

"Have you bought everything you bought?" Lu Liran was not good at finding someone to pick up the topic, and opened his mouth to break the silence.

"Well, I've bought them all." Ke Ji nodded.

The two stood in the long corridor between two rooms facing each other, as if they had something to say, but they seemed to have nothing to say.

Just when Lu Liran was about to open the door and go back, Ke Ji said, "Then... do you think that person forced you? Because you are in such a special period? Do you hate him?"

Lu Liran raised his eyebrows in surprise, he didn't expect Ke Ji to be concerned about this aspect all the way.

He replied: "No. What I hate is feeling out of control."

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that it was an exchange between you and me. He neither naively felt that he had lost his virginity, nor did he think that after only one night, he needed to pay each other and bind each other.

He simply rejects the feeling of being out of control, of being overwhelmed by strong emotions and impulses, both physically and mentally.

"If I want to say a little more, I'm probably a little bit annoyed." Lu Liran snorted.

"Curved from embarrassment?" Ke Ji froze for a moment.

Lu Liran didn't say anything more, he waved his hand and said, "I'm going in if I have nothing to do, we'll talk when I have time."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and opened the door.

Ke Ji watched him step into the door, and the boy and the housekeeper came out to greet him quickly, and then the door was closed behind his back at random, and he only saw the small half of the scene.

Ke Ji withdrew his gaze, and slowly opened the door of his hotel room.

Angry?

As one of the parties involved, he couldn't help recalling what he did that made the other party angry.

The moment the door closed, Ke Ji reacted abruptly, his face turned red and then white, and then turned white and red—was it because he left without saying goodbye and disappeared afterwards? Was it because he was mistaken for running away?

The more Ke Ji thinks back, the more likely it is.

He couldn't help but let out an annoyed grunt, sitting on the carpet with his legs curled up, his head against the door, feeling as if God was doing everything possible to prevent him from falling in love, but everything collided by a **** coincidence, even if Lu Liran had such a misunderstanding , as it should be.

Not long after, Ke Ji's optical brain lit up, and a video request from Bronte popped up.

The entire A69 galaxy was affected by the nebula explosion that lasted for two weeks, and the communication environment was extremely poor. Bronte still used extremely expensive and extremely rare dark matter isolation communication equipment to contact Ke Ji.

Chief of Staff and Acting Executive Officer Brontë felt bitter. His Excellency, Commander, not only lost contact for four or five days inexplicably, piles of work documents were pressed down on him like a hill. It was approved, but instead threw him a black box, asking him to restore the data inside as soon as possible and with all his strength.

"The Ministry of Science and Technology said that the data recovery of the black box has been completed, and now it's coming, and I'll synchronize it for you." Bronte Hui reported.

Hearing this, Ke Ji immediately got up from the ground and regained his spirit.

Bronte seemed to have discovered a new world, and asked a series of questions: "Hey, why are you sitting on the ground? By the way, where did this black box come from? Why are you so eager to get it? It is rare for the Ministry of Science and Technology to work overtime after the war."

"It's the black box of the escape boat that Lu Liran and the others took." Ke Ji glanced at Bronte, and his eyes fell on the data synchronization progress bar that appeared out of thin air.

His heart beat slightly faster, and it seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand - he would know right away what happened to Lu Liran.

Bronte was stunned, then took a breath: "The escape boat was found?! Did you find him?"

He asked, and immediately thought of the way the man was sitting on the ground just now, and calmed down again, feeling that the result was not ideal.

However, Ke Ji showed a bright smile: "I found him, and I was even very lucky. I have met him not long after I first entered Desolate Star. It was only because of many misunderstandings and misunderstandings at the beginning that I didn't know him." recognize him."

Bronte couldn't help raising his eyebrows and teasing: "The young master of the Lu family is so exquisite and good-looking, and you haven't recognized him after so many days?! Your observation skills are not good enough, are you a skinny commander! "

Ke Ji: "..."

"But having said that, as long as you find it, why did you look like a dead fish just now?" Bronte wondered.

"He doesn't know that the other father of the child is me." Ke Ji expressed in a tactful way that night, in fact, he was just regarded as an ordinary tool for transitional estrus.

Bronte's eyes suddenly widened. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly "poofed" and turned his head suddenly. The next second, the communication was interrupted.

Ke Ji: "..."

After less than half a minute, Bronte called back with an extremely serious expression: "Sorry, the communication signal was poor just now."

"Then what are you going to do?" Bronte asked with the utmost sincerity.

Ke Ji looked at him expressionlessly: "Scrutinize favorability."

Bronte let out a "ha", stopped in time, and then said, "Come on."

Before Ke Ji was on the verge of getting angry, he changed the subject: "Ah, the progress bar is almost full!"

Ke Ji looked over subconsciously, 92%, 93%...

"Hey, so, do you think this is a private use of public equipment? You actually asked the entire Ministry of Science and Technology to work overtime for private affairs, tsk." Bronte narrowed his eyes, "Quickly give me three days of paid leave to block my mouth."

"It's not a personal matter." Ke Ji said, his eyes lingering on the progress bar that was about to be full, and said in a deep voice, "I don't think the escape boat was just being chased by the Zerg, which caused the escape boat to crash into the deserted star. From the war-damaged planet to the The distance between the desolate stars is nearly half of that from Solto to the desolate stars."

Bronte put away his laughing expression when he heard this, and unfolded the star map of the entire A69 galaxy, his eyes narrowed slightly: "You mean that the emergency landing of the escape boat on the desolate star was planned? The desolate star...was chosen, not Forced to land."

Ke Ji responded. He looked at the progress bar and heard an electronic sound of "ding". He said, "If you're lucky, the answer is in the black box."

The image data in the black box was almost perfectly restored—

The first two hours of video were pretty normal.

Ke Ji caught Lu Liran as soon as he was carried into the escape cabin. His eyes stopped on the young man in the simple medical cabin. Half of his face was covered by emergency bandages. His white chin was splattered with many blood spots. The tip is stained with blood.

He saw Lu Liran lying in the medical cabin, the other half of his face not covered by bandages, his eyes were open brightly, even though he was lying in the medical cabin, he did not forget to pay attention to the battle outside, like a hedgehog eager to try.

Ke Ji's eyes softened slightly. The Lu Liran in this appearance is somewhat similar to the Lu Liran he sees now, but not completely similar. The current Lu Liran seldom sees such outgoing and bright little emotions, but that Momentum didn't change at all.

Ke Ji looked at the bandage on Lu Liran's face. If the wound on half of his face was sent back to Planet Solto, with the leading medical technology of Planet Solto and the young master of the Lu family's technical house, it would never be possible to leave it behind. With just a few scars, it's no wonder that the young man at that time didn't care that his face was wounded and wrapped in bandages.

He saw Lu Liran's housekeeper again, who seemed to be a man named Jin Fei.

The man was also lifted onto the escape boat, and a large hole in his waist and abdomen was swept out by the laser. The two medical soldiers beside him were scrambling to stop the bleeding and stop the wound, but the man didn't seem to feel any pain at all. The guns of the medical soldiers shot down a Zerg that flew to the cabin of the escape boat.

I really can't see the shadow of a gentle and elegant housekeeper at all.

Less than three hours after the escape boat took off smoothly, there was a sudden movement in the cockpit.

Several medical soldiers went over to check first. When the cockpit was opened, a cluster of vines pierced through the first medical soldier who opened the door like a sharp spear.

Looking inside, the entire cockpit was actually filled with this kind of thing, and the three pilots fell down on the cockpit and seats.

Bronte gasped: "This is the magic vine? Didn't it exit the A69 galaxy three years ago in that battle? How did it appear in the escape boat?!"

Ke Ji's eyes turned cold, he rewound the video for a few seconds, and magnified the messy driving panel three times.

"Look here, the autopilot has been set, the destination is Desolate Star." He said coldly.

Bronte narrowed his eyes, which confirmed Ke Ji's guess just now, that the deserted star was arranged to choose the place, and it was even related to the magic vine.

Ke Ji didn't say anything more, just continued to play the original video data in the black box.

The invasion of the magic vines caused the entire escape boat to be in chaos. Most of the entire escape boat was wounded, and only ten soldiers and ten medical soldiers were matched. They couldn't resist this troublesome creature at all.

The magic vine can easily take root in any place and survive, and then penetrates everywhere, always bursting out in unexpected places, the emerald green and sharp vines plunging into the body, soaking into bright red vine branches.

A small explosion occurred in the escape boat, first at the dining room, and then spread to the corridor and lounge. In less than an hour, the entire escape boat was on fire.

Ke Ji slowly tensed his back, staring at the video, looking for Lu Liran's figure.

The medical repair cabin has a strict isolation function, and the sound of the outside world can hardly be transmitted inside. When Lu Liran realized that something was wrong outside, the main switch controller of the cabin failed due to the chaos caused by the magic vine, and could not be opened at all.

Ke Ji's pupils shrank fiercely, and his lips were pressed tightly, watching helplessly as Lu Liran was trapped in the repair cabin, with flames bursting out all around, gradually turning into a steaming sea of ​​flames.

The magic vines sprang out from the bottom of Lu Liran's cabin, and three or four thick and long vines turned the roof of the repaired cabin to the ground. The high temperature baked the bulkhead like an iron plate, and it was impossible to touch it.

Lu Liran struggled to avoid the bulkhead in the narrow repair cabin, but he didn't expect that the few vines would actually entangle the repair cabin, squeezing the entire recovery cabin into a ball of iron with amazing force, and Lu Liran was forced to press against the iron plate. hot bulkhead.

In the video, the young man screamed in pain.

Bronte gasped, and couldn't bear to watch it any longer. Just thinking about it made him feel like it was going to hurt like crazy, which was unbearable with extraordinary perseverance.

There was a crackling sound in the video. While the magic vine squeezed and deformed the repair cabin, it also crushed the outermost round arched shield.

The half of Lu Liran's face was completely invisible, and he struggled to get out of the repair cabin bloody.

Jin Fei was right next to him, and he grabbed Lu Liran, and the two of them would run out of the sea of ​​flames.

The video was abruptly turned off during the black box.

Bronte immediately looked at Ke Ji, and saw that the whole room on Ke Ji's side was in a mess, and all the glass was shattered but not scattered all over the place, but suspended in mid-air like pieces of sharp blades.

Mental riot! Bronte's pupils shrank fiercely, he never thought that Ke Ji would actually have a mental riot at this time and because of this!

All the furniture in the house was cut into pieces by the mental power of the riot, floating in the air like the shattered glass, surrounding Ke Ji, the surrounding air flow seemed to be stirred into small vortices visible to the naked eye, it was frightening to watch trembling.

"Keji!" Bronte shouted anxiously.

Ke Ji let out a muffled snort, and was backlashed by the mental power of forcibly restraining the riot.

He closed his eyes tightly, and after a while, he saw thin lines of blood spilling from his ears and the corners of his mouth, and all the things floating around fell to the ground, making a loud noise.

He opened his eyes, looked at Bronte, with a stern look in his eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Investigate the magic vines, and concentrate on the old department of Desolate Star."

"Yes!" Bronte was relieved when he saw this, and he was a little surprised in his heart. He didn't expect to use the old subordinates who stayed in Huangxing a long time ago this time.

But the magic vine... actually lurks in the barren star, that is simply a big trouble.

Magic vines are good at camouflage. As long as they don't want to expose themselves, they are as ordinary as ordinary plants. Unless there is a **** smell nearby to make them move, it is almost impossible to find them.

And these magic vines have extremely strong viability, as long as there is a little soil, sunlight and water, they can take root and rest.

A main vine can extend hundreds of auxiliary vines tens of meters long. As long as the main vine does not die, even if the auxiliary vine is burned or cut off, it can continue to recover and produce new vine branches.

The only consolation is that the reproductive ability of the magic vines is low, otherwise a planet will be invaded by the magic vines, and within a few months, it will turn into a green and barren planet.

The magic vines once invaded three planets including Desolate Star, and all the soldiers including Bronte thought that all those ghosts had been exterminated by Ke Ji, and escaped from the A69 galaxy, but they did not expect that there were still a small number of planets left. Cong hidden dangers broke out at such a time.

After Bronte and Ke Ji hung up the communication, they hurriedly arranged to contact the old department that stayed in the deserted star.

As for the Star City Central Hotel, they also hurriedly sent a small team to knock on Ke Ji's door.

When the members of the small team saw the situation inside the door, they all cried out in a low voice:

"My! God! Did you conduct a chemical experiment in the room?!"

"God, the outer windows of our hotel are made of special materials, even Zerg weapons can't penetrate them, what did you do to them?!"

"I swear this is the most outrageous thing I've seen since I was the captain of the security team in this hotel for ten years!"

Ke Ji even saw a person pick up the walkie-talkie and go to the corner, muttering in a low voice about why he wanted to file a complaint with the management and apply to have the tenant in the number one dangerous blacklist.

Ke Ji: "..."

Although the sound insulation and shockproof effect of each door is top-notch, the windows of Ke Ji's room were shattered and suspended in the outdoors at a height of 100 meters for a few minutes, which was enough to attract the attention of many passers-by.

The hotel scrambled for an emergency PR.

Lu Liran ordered the children's meal in the hotel that Lu Ziqian's children love most. When Jin Fei went to open the door to welcome the dining car in, he noticed something unusual at the opposite door, so after the three of them finished eating, he looked at Lu Liran and casually mentioned:

"Master, there are many people gathered in the corridor, it seems that something happened on the opposite side."

Lu Liran was taken aback when he heard the words, right? Ke Ji?

"Is that handsome uncle?" Lu Ziqian blinked, sucked a little sauce off his finger, and asked in a childish voice.

Lu Liran said, "Yes, I'll go and have a look."

He stood up quickly and ran to the opposite side.

At this moment, Ke Ji's room has been cleaned almost, at least it looks ten times better than when the incident happened.

Even so, when Lu Liran saw it, his eyes widened in shock, and he couldn't help asking: "What are you doing in there?!"

Ke Ji sat on the half of the sofa in a daze, his mind was still full of the sea of ​​flames in the escape boat, he suddenly heard Lu Liran's voice, and he didn't even realize whether the image in the black box was real or not.

He is not yet mentally prepared to face Lu Liran. It is one thing to know what terrible experience Lu Liran may have experienced, but another thing to see it with his own eyes. I don't think there is anything he can do to make up for the pain and embarrassment of the other party in the past few years.

What he owes the other party is the basic duty that should be fulfilled as a lover's partner but neglected.

Ke Ji looked at Lu Liran in a daze, his eyes were bloodshot and flushed, looking a little scary.

Lu Liran was startled, and couldn't help frowning.

"What's wrong?" Lu Liran hesitated for a second, walked into the room, and put his hand on the man's shoulder.

Ke Ji raised his neck and looked at the young man standing in front of him. There were not only terrible raised scars on that face, but also a large piece of distorted skin due to scalding and high temperature burns, which even spread to half of his neck.

It was the first time for Lu Liran to be stared at by Ke Ji like this, and he felt uncomfortable. He knew how strange and frightening his injured face was, and it was even more strange to be stared at by a handsome man like this.

He hadn't said anything yet, suddenly there was a force in his waist, he was stunned, looked down, and saw Ke Ji embracing his waist, burying his head in his clothes.

Lu Liran hesitated for a few seconds, but did not push him away.

He hesitantly raised his hand and patted Ke Ji's back slowly, without saying anything more.

The breakdown of adults is often in that moment, and there is nothing to ask.

Ke Ji sniffed the faint smell of tequila on Lu Liran's body, as if the bitter and hot liquor had slipped into his throat.

He said hoarsely, "I finally know what happened to him."

Lu Liran blinked, and then realized that this should refer to the partner Ke Ji was looking for, probably the one who was buried under the quicksand of Salba.

Hearing Ke Ji's tone, he seemed to know the details.

Lu Liran guessed that Ke Ji asked Xiandan and the others to ask them carefully afterward.

As for why he asked directly without being in Sarba, Lu Liran automatically made up the reason for Ke Ji.

An answer like this is simply not something a traveler trapped in Salba can bear, but any survivor with qualified intelligence and professionalism will choose to learn about such things after successfully getting out of the predicament.

Otherwise, the extreme pain and sorrow will become Salba's minions, dragging the traveler deeply, and he will never be able to get out.

Lu Liran sighed softly, didn't say anything, and let the other party hug him tightly like a koala. He felt that this was at most some insignificant support he could give the other party.

Until Jin Fei came to find someone.

Jin Fei led the family's cub to the opposite door to look for Papa.

The butler saw his young master being hugged by a tall and strong man, his face was darkened, he coughed heavily, and said to Ke Ji in a humble manner but with thorns in his words: "If Mr. Ke is willing to let go and return the young master to his cub , Jinfei will be very grateful for your generosity and friendliness.”

Lu Liran didn't notice Jin Fei, and turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw his little boy with big round steel blue eyes, turning back and forth, looking at himself and Ke Ji curiously.

"Papa hugs the beautiful uncle..." Before the little guy finished speaking, Jin Fei gently pinched his mouth, "Abaaaba..."

Jin Fei said gently, "Young master, don't talk nonsense."

The little girl Lu Ziqian kept her mouth shut obediently, but her big eyes were still actively looking at her papa and uncle.

Lu Liran was so embarrassing, he pulled away abruptly to avoid it, and coughed dryly: "Jin Fei, why are you here?"

"Seeing that there is no news after you came here, the young master and I came to take a look if we were worried." Jin Fei lowered his eyes and said warmly.

Lu Liran glanced at the time, he didn't expect that half an hour had passed in such a short time, no wonder Jin Fei came to look for someone.

He was slightly surprised, how time passed so quickly.

"Sorry." Ke Ji came back to his senses, he looked at Lu Liran, said in a low voice, and then looked at the boy again.

The little cub held Jin Fei's hanging hand, stood against Jin Fei's calf, and was looking at himself curiously.

"Is Uncle Beautiful unhappy?" The kid Lu Ziqian took the initiative to let go of Jin Fei's hand, walked slowly to Ke Ji, and asked Ke Ji with his little head held high.

Ke Ji didn't expect his cub to talk to him suddenly, he paused, and then raised a small smile: "But papa healed uncle."

Xiao Zaizai immediately squinted his big eyes happily: "Papa is great."

Lu Liran twitched his lips slightly, and was inexplicably put on a high hat by the two of them. He held Lu Ziqian's hand and said to Ke Ji: "Since you are fine, I'll go first."

He paused, then looked at the mess around him, and said, "The mental strength is so unstable, is this the effect of your team? Then you might as well go back to the hospital."

Jin Fei's eyes widened suddenly when he heard what Lu Liran said, he was surprised and couldn't believe it, the dilapidation of this house was only caused by mental violence?

He has seen many soldiers riot mentally due to the pressure of war, but at most they blew up their kettles and cut their sleeping bags. He has never seen such a destructive force.

He looked at Ke Ji, and still couldn't believe it was caused by this handsome and harmless man in front of him.

Ke Ji looked around lightly, narrowed his eyes, turned to Lu Liran and calmed down, and said softly: "This time it was an accident, it won't happen again."

Lu Liran gave him a noncommittal look: "Then take care."

As soon as he picked up the little boy, he saw that the little boy was still looking at Ke Ji curiously, so he couldn't help raising his eyebrows, kissed the little boy on the forehead, and asked in a low voice as he walked out, "What are you looking at?"

"Uncle is so pretty." Kid Lu Ziqian sighed with a blushing face.

Lu Liran: "..."

Jin Fei: "..."

What's going on, what's going on, you know how to appreciate beauty at a young age? !

Lu Liran's face was a little unnatural, probably because the little guy's emotion was so similar to what he had whispered in his heart that Lu Liran once wondered if it was because he accidentally said something wrong.

"Cough, let's go back to take a nap." Lu Liran cleared his throat, held Feifei high, and led Feifei.

When he walked back to the room and closed the door, he took a look at Ke Ji out of the corner of his eye, wondering if he heard the little guy's childish words.

Ke Ji stood still and watched them leave, showing a bigger smile to the father and son. His steel-blue eyes were like the sea and stars, and his golden hair seemed to be more dazzling in the afterglow of the afternoon.

Xiao Zai Zai: "Yeah!"

Lu Liran: "Yeah... bah."

It is forbidden to hold beautiful dolls.
