Walk alone in the abyss

Viscount Godoy Saka brought a few bottles of 'beer' and a few food boxes, Yang Ming cleared the small table by the window, and the two got together and started eating and drinking.

There is no serious topic, this is some parents' gossip.

When there were two more empty wine bottles beside the table, Godoy pointed to the position of the badge, and Yang Ming took out a business-use shielding device and started soundproofing.

"Hui, when are you going to leave?"

This is not the first time Godoy has asked this question, but his demeanor and eyes are different every time he asks.

Yang Ming said: "Depending on your needs, I originally wanted to stay for a longer period of time and be active in the police circle of Saka for a month or two... I will ask my assistant to pay the balance tomorrow."

"Oh, I didn't come to rush this!"

Godoy was a little embarrassed.

Yang Ming smiled and narrowed his eyes, pinched a piece of meat and threw it into his mouth.

The 'old' viscount in his fifties next to him saw Yang Ming's eyes regained warmth, and said slowly:

"You're a wonderful young man, and I sometimes think how nice it would be if you were really part of the family.

"You can stay here as long as you want, I mean, it's fine even if you live here forever...

"I suddenly came to chat with you today because, um, I want to make a little change, Hui."

Yang Ming was a little puzzled: "What change?"

"I want to leave here," Godoy looked at the quiet city outside the window, "There is not much vitality here, like a pool of stagnant water, and like a coffin called a planet, dying little by little among the stars. I Want to go to the prosperous administrative star, put down the so-called aristocratic status, and take a job as a ship designer, I can find such a job, I am sure I can find such a job, I have talked to them several times on the Internet Second-rate."

Yang Ming smiled and said, "You actually have this idea a long time ago, Godoy."

"I have been thinking and preparing for more than 20 years, but ideas are ideas, and reality is reality. I have too many reasons not to leave here."

Godoy sighed slightly:

"My grandfather and father, their honor is on this planet, and their ideals have gradually shrunk from the entire planet to this small manor.

"I couldn't ignore the eyes they looked at me when they left. They didn't have much expectation in those eyes. They just wanted me to guard this place and the last fiefdom of the Saka family.

"I was trapped here for the first half of my life. If it wasn't for Dai Li's appearance, I definitely wouldn't be able to survive."

The two touched the wine bottle.

Yang Ming asked: "What did Mrs. Delly say?"

"I haven't told her yet," Godoy shrugged, "I just came up with this idea recently... Thanks to those imperial coins, I can consider a better educational environment for my two children, as well as the way out for the future .”

"Will there be any resistance?" Yang Ming asked with concern.

Godoy smiled and shook his head, pointing to his heart: "Resistance often comes from your own heart, not the external environment."

"This kind of self-paralyzed idealism is unacceptable," Yang Ming clicked his tongue softly, "You must fully understand the difficulties that exist objectively, for example, your little savings is simply not enough to buy a decent villa in a big city in the empire. "

Godoy took the wine bottle and made a gesture to hit someone.

Yang Ming moved the chair calmly and left Godoy's attack range.

"Come back soon," Godoy cursed affectionately, "Get closer to me, you bastard, maybe after this time, you won't have the chance to be your father in the future."

The corner of Yang Ming's mouth twitched slightly.

This uncle must be deliberately taking advantage of him!

He chatted with Godoy from late to very early.

Most of the time, Godoy is the one who asks Yang Ming, what is the essential difference between the prosperous planet of the empire and this place, how is the price, how much living materials can be richer than here, and what is the difference in the way of education.

Yang Ming had Xiaoli's off-court assistance, so he was naturally able to answer questions fluently.

The sky is bright.

Yang Ming opened his eyes on the floor next to the bed, looked up at his single bed, and shook his head at the Viscount who lay sprawled there.

The glasses at the corner of the table flickered faintly.

Yang Ming grabbed the glasses and put them on his face, took a quick glance, then tiptoed out of the manor and rushed to the hiding place where 026 had just changed.

Considering 026's physical development problems, Yang Ming brought her two cups of high-protein hot drinks when passing by the breakfast shop.

It is necessary to continue to maintain the personal characteristics of employees.

...

"Law, start reporting."

"Good boss."

In 026's newly rented small warehouse, Yang Ming sat on the boss's chair that still smelled of glue, and pressed the hidden button on the front of the glasses.

The glasses turned on the holographic mode, and Lil's pocket projection reappeared in front of Yang Ming after a long absence, wearing a sailor suit and a folded skirt.

Of course, her appearance has not changed - the linear development of time can only make her main brain's solder joints loosen a little.

But the law's small eyes obviously carried some resentment.

Yang Ming wondered, "What's the matter? Did you get bullied by Molly?"

026, who was drinking melon milk, looked up subconsciously, and continued to lower his head to read the latest current affairs news of the empire.

Lil puffed his lips: "Boss, you are too much, even asexual people like Bligh will not let go! He is not as good as those companion robots!"

Yang Ming cursed with a black face: "That's a pervert! Don't deliberately disgust me."

Law whispered: "Then when you were drinking with Viscount Saka last night, you asked me to find out where her manor is. Isn't this for the convenience of finding someone later?"

"Uh, really not," Yang Ming explained calmly, "I'm just curious about it, and want to see her paradise, she seems to have made a lot of vegetative people... Where are the four super-reformed people now? "

Lili entered the working state, a gleam of fire appeared on his body, and with the spread of the fire, he completed the silky transition from sailor suit to professional suit.

She said quickly:

"Boss, those four Stinger ships are searching the star system near the fake base.

"They already have the intention of returning, and they should feel that the harvest is enough. Obviously, these super reformers don't have much sense of national honor.

"The information we released in the base has been confirmed to be conveyed to the top of the empire."

The high level of the empire...

Yang Ming wondered: "Tell me, if the white ghost incident has been going on so far, will the emperor of the empire directly intervene?"

"No, boss," Li explained, "Now the affairs related to the white ghost are classified as B-level within the empire. Only A-level incidents will ask His Majesty the Emperor to review and make a decision."

"Isn't the emperor not going online?"

"It's hard to deduce this, but private and public affairs should be separated logically," Lu added. "The emperor of the empire also has clear rules that must be followed."

Yang Ming tapped the edge of the table with his fingers: "Report the information from all parties."

"Luofeng's economy is improving steadily, your substitute robot has no flaws, brothers and sisters Edwan and Emilia are normal in all aspects, and neither Kolev nor Miss Mimily is abnormal.

"The Luofeng military has started the sixth round of its military expansion plan, and the voices in the political circles of the three peripheral countries have basically reached an agreement, and they can start to conclude an alliance at any time, but it is best to wait for a more suitable time.

"Dark Star's various development indexes are normal.

"There is good news. The biochemical laboratory of Dark Star No. 2 Base produced a new patent yesterday. It is Miss Hera's improvement based on the experiment on Zerg control. It is hoped that it can stimulate the activity of hidden Zerg. We can rely on this Things, to create new types of swarm detectors and early warning devices.”

Law's words paused, and continued:

"Insect disasters outside the domain are still threats that we must pay attention to now, and there are still a terrible number of insect races lurking in the large starry sky outside the human activity area of ​​the Milky Way.

"Miss Hera's research is actually of great significance to the entire galactic human civilization. On this basis, in order to protect Miss Hera's experiment, we can lower our moral standards when we act."

Yang Ming couldn't help but laugh.

Li's last sentence still followed her mechanical logic.

Where normal human beings consider whether to lower moral standards, they always consider '1' and '0'.

Yang Ming said: "Protect Hera well, and the vigilance about the space Zerg cannot be stopped for a moment. If there is any problem, we will proceed according to the plan we prepared before."

"Good boss."

"Realize her experimental results as soon as possible," Yang Ming said with a smile, "generating income is the most important thing for technology companies."

Lv Tut Tut chuckled, and continued with his work report.

A few minutes later, Lu asked with some concern: "Boss, are you really going to the Emperor Star Circle?"

"Otherwise?" Yang Ming said, "I have stayed in Saka Star for so long, and I have become a specially hired master of solving crimes at the Saka Star Police Station. Isn't it just for the convenience of going to the Emperor Star Circle? We have analyzed it more than once. , This is the fastest way to break into the core group of imperial nobles, and the police system is related to their safety."

Law pondered a few times: "Then after this stinger ship search, will our prosecution continue?"

"keep going."

"I'm afraid this will further anger the bureaucratic class of the empire."

Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Death once and death a hundred times are both death. When the white ghost fell into the hands of the empire, what really determined his situation was not only the top management of the empire, but also the military bosses, and then my experimental team. What's the matter with these bureaucrats?"

law:……

"Boss, I always feel that..."

"Lü, get ready for the communication experiment with the Emperor Star Circle," Yang Ming sighed softly, "If I hadn't been driven to a dead end by the mother-in-law, I wouldn't use such a stupid method, but now we have to grasp this at most two During the vacuum period of one year, when Po Huan opened her eyes again, I must have already stood at the core area of ​​the empire's power."

"It's too difficult."

"We have more opportunities now."

"Why?" Law didn't know why.

"Bligh has branded me mentally, although I have already melted the brand," Yang Ming said indifferently, "but I can pretend to be influenced by him, and then use this super-reformer in reverse, this may be a shortcut .”

thinking space.

Looking at Yang Ming's serious face on the screen, Lu couldn't help raising his hand to his forehead.

The boss's mentality is simply unassailable.

...

Less than three days have passed since the 'exclusive base' was revealed.

The four Stinger ships returned to the Emperor Star Circle and disappeared within the vast territory of the Empire.

Law carefully checked several times, and repeatedly confirmed that the Stinger and the super-reformed man had returned to the Emperor Star Circle, and then became active in the Empire Network again, and the Dongfeng also returned to the vicinity of Saka Star to guard.

Bligh's visit to Saka Star twice gave Yang Ming greater determination to continue making full preparations for going to the Emperor Star Circle.

After paying the final payment, he asked the Viscount Saka to help him and took him to several noble parties on Saka.

Today is different from the past, the famous detective Hui Saka has already become popular in Saka, and whenever Yang Ming attends the party, the spotlight will automatically hit him.

It is a pity that Hui Saka's personality is decent and dignified. Yang Ming could not respond to the initiative of those young, beautiful, and pure-looking aristocratic girls, and could only show shyness. smile.

At this stage, Yang Ming must leave enough information on Saka to deal with various investigations that may arise in the future.

The so-called Emperor Star Circle refers to dozens of administrative stars that are relatively close to the Emperor Star.

Emperor Star has banned the immigration of foreign populations. It is the core of the empire's core, and it is the back garden of His Majesty the Emperor.

The Imperial Star Circle is the most powerful area in terms of technology, economy, culture, and military in the empire. It has a regional network directly connected to the entire domain network of the empire, but countless firewalls have been established between the two.

You can easily search for all information in the imperial network world within the emperor star circle, but outside the emperor star circle, you cannot search for any news in the emperor star circle.

The density of aristocrats in the Emperor Star circle is very high, and a car accident can kill several barons. A 'pseudo-noble' like Yang Ming who has not yet obtained an official title does not have much status bonus there.

A super-reformed person like Bligh is hidden in the Emperor Star Circle.

The Skyfury Fortress, where the Empire's secret forces, transformation forces, and super forces reside, also guards the outer periphery of the Emperor Star Circle.

If Yang Ming wanted to move towards the center of imperial power, he had to gain a foothold and develop in the Emperor Star Circle.

Even, he can't go to too remote areas of the Emperor Star Circle. ——The chain of contempt in the Emperor Star circle is arranged according to the distance from the Emperor Star. It is perfectly normal for the third ring to look down on the fifth ring.

As the preparations continued to advance, some expected bad news arrived as expected:

The police station in the Dixing circle does not recognize the recommendation letter of the Sakaxing police station, and cannot directly enter the job with the recommendation letter;

If you want to work in politics in the Emperor Star circle, you need to live for more than five years before you can take the public examination;

The attention paid to the famous detective Hui in the imperial star circle has never been improved. According to the questionnaire, most people think that this is just a boring star-making activity in a remote area of ​​the empire;

Every administrative star in the Emperor Star Circle is surrounded by a powerful man-made shielding place, and it adopts a regional network management similar to the New Federation, which greatly reduces the tactical effect of Law;

etc.

And with that came some good news.

According to Lu's attempt, as long as the mastermind of Dongfeng is connected to the Emperor Star Circle network within the Emperor Star Circle, he can maintain communication with Yang Ming after Yang Ming enters any administrative star in the Emperor Star Circle;

Even if the Dongfeng cannot enter the range of the Emperor Star Circle, they only need to get one artificial satellite to fully solve the communication problem and allow Yang Ming to maintain a sufficient information advantage.

——Even for this artificial satellite, they are likely to acquire a TV broadcasting company with a satellite operating license.

Feedback from the online questionnaire survey in the Emperor Star circle shows that most of the nobles there have no ill will towards the white ghost, and there will often be a group of young people wearing white ghost COS costumes, 'parading' in the streets and alleys to express their support for the white ghost ...

In addition to bad news and good news, Yang Ming also got some news that surprised him a little.

For example, the planet where Viscount Godoy Saka was about to go for an interview was in the same star system as Yang Ming's intended goal.

Just like now, holding the network access terminal he usually uses, he clicked on the email from Bligh, and the "Dear Hui" at the beginning made him almost spit it out.

This bastard who wants to make him a half-dead collectible!

Stop pretending here!

Try to make another update today.

The body is in the recovery stage, and the energy is not very good. The update time is not stable at this stage. Please forgive me, and I will work hard to make up for it later.

In the new year, I hope to have a new atmosphere. The past year has been really difficult.
