Chapter 46 The Innocent Fool

Lin Xiaodong searched the entire starship, and even the tail was aching, and finally found Gu Xi in an vacant room.

It is estimated that this room was originally a utility room, and there is no door opening such as fingerprint verification. He held his hand on the doorknob and pushed it open with a slight push.

There was a strong smell of smoke.

Gu Xi bowed and sat beside a cold wooden bed with an unburned cigarette butt in his hand.

The man's brows were knitted together, and sporadic sparks landed at his feet, then extinguished in the blink of an eye.

Smoking is not allowed in the army, and it is not allowed to carry tobacco without permission. It is estimated that some soldier smuggled it up and hid it here, and it happened to be discovered by Gu Xi.

"go out."

Hearing the sound, he turned his head to look at the night scene outside the porthole without turning his head.

Lin Xiaodong didn't listen.

He closed the door to himself and walked over.

Gu Xi suppressed anger in his eyes, and suddenly turned his head and said, "I said let you out-"

His voice stopped abruptly when he saw the little mermaid staring at him silently in the dark.

I don't know how long it took until the cigarette butt in his hand was burnt out, Gu Xi woke up like a dream and shook off the ashes from his fingertips, and asked in a difficult voice: "Why are you here?"

"Come and see you."

Lin Xiaodong secretly rolled his eyes, thinking to himself, what else can I do when everyone is here, but he still answered in a very soft voice on the surface.

"Go back," Gu Xi came back to his senses, lowered his voice, and avoided his gaze a little, "I'm... not safe now."

"Where is it not safe?" Lin Xiaodong didn't eat his tricks at all, looking rather reluctant, "Are you saying this?"

He pointed to his neck and asked.

Gu Xi only glanced at it, his eyes seemed to be stinged by the blue and purple handprint, and the hand on his side clenched instantly.

"...Does it hurt?"

But Lin Xiaodong shook his head and sat down beside him.

The little mermaid took the man's hand and opened his fingers one by one.

"I don't blame you," he said. "You didn't mean it. And it didn't hurt at all, really."

As he said that, he also stretched out his neck, as if he wanted Gu Xi to touch it again. But as soon as Gu Xi's fingertips touched the hot surface of the skin, he suddenly retracted his hand like an electric shock.

"...you go, leave me alone."

Hearing the man's expulsion order again, Lin Xiaodong was also annoyed.

"I do not!"

The little mermaid said willfully. As if cheating, he stretched out his arms, hugged Gu Xi's neck, and wrapped his tail around him.

Gu Xi subconsciously hugged the slender waist of the mermaid in his arms, but he seemed to be worried about something.

"Look at me." Lin Xiaodong forcefully turned his face straight, and let the system take advantage of the man's absence to quickly detect how far the female worm in Gu Xi's body had grown.

He originally wanted to check the other person's whole body, but Gu Xi misunderstood what Lin Xiaodong meant, the man lowered his eyes, sighed, and stretched out his hand to hug the little mermaid tightly into his arms.

"sorry that I had you worried."

"Ding, Good Person Card Fragment +1."

It was a surprise.

Lin Xiaodong patted his shoulder heavily: "It's fine, I'm fine."

He cleared his throat, found a comfortable angle in Gu Xi's arms, and hummed softly. But maybe it was because of being too sleepy in the middle of the night. It didn't take long for Lin Xiaodong's eyelids to fight, and the sound became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a faint snoring sound.

Gu Xi still maintained his original posture.

But when he looked down at the sleeping little mermaid in his arms, the frown that had been locked was slowly smoothed, and his eyes gradually softened.

"Lieutenant General."

Xu Feng's voice came from the door, Gu Xi raised a finger to signal the other party to be quiet, got up and walked out of the room with the little mermaid in his arms.

*

After gaining full control of the Star Destroyer Cannon, the army led by Gu Xi was in a state of turmoil. The nobles had no power to fight back, and even many people hadn't reacted. By the afternoon of the next day, everything was already dusty. It's settled.

But that doesn't mean everything is back on track.

In fact, what Gu Xi took over was a mess at all.

The economy and transportation of the entire Central Star are completely paralyzed, and the society is in a state of stagnation. Nearly 76% of the population is parasitized by brain worms, and the streets are full of homeless, thugs and homeless orphans.

"It can't go on like this, Lieutenant General," the staff officer said to Gu Xi worriedly, "The most important thing now is to stabilize the social order first, so you must not have an accident, and the news that the female parasite is in your body must not be leaked."

Gu Xi glanced at his hesitant expression, frowned and said, "If you have something to say, say it directly, don't hide it."

"Okay," the staff officer rubbed his nose and dared to make a suggestion, "Actually, what I want to say is, Lieutenant General, now all the stars know that the mermaid is here with us, and that the mermaid's singing can inhibit the activity of brain worms. It has a miraculous effect, why don't you let Lin Xiaodong live broadcast a few more times?"

"Xiaodong is not a tool I use to gain people's hearts," Gu Xi's face instantly turned cold, "I don't want to hear this kind of thing again."

"......I see."

But as the staff of the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, how could he not have the slightest ambition.

Now they and Gu Xi are both prosperous and damaged, so after the suggestion was rejected, the staff member went through Xu Feng to meet with Lin Xiaodong in private.

"Lieutenant General Gu didn't say anything, but the current situation is really difficult." He first sighed, trying to win Lin Xiaodong's sympathy by selling his misery, "We need your help, but Lieutenant General is too soft-hearted. , I have never agreed, but I still want to ask your opinion."

Lin Xiaodong bit a lollipop and sat on the seat looking at him innocently.

"If you agree, no matter what you want, as long as I can do it, I will do my best to satisfy it." The staff saw him unmoved, and continued to persuade him, "Of course I know that there is a lieutenant general. You shouldn't be short of anything, but that's a little bit of my heart."

With that said, he took out all kinds of precious candies and snacks from the backpack he carried, trying to impress Lin Xiaodong with these sugar-coated cannonballs.

But the little mermaid just blinked and continued to play stupid.

After staring at each other for three seconds, the staff officer had nothing to do.

"...Speak straight, what are your thoughts?" He said helplessly, "I don't have much time. I'm here to see you today, and it is estimated that the lieutenant general won't spare me for the next three years."

Lin Xiaodong pulled out the lollipop in his mouth and pointed behind him sympathetically.

A minute later, Gu Xi scolded the staff officer who shrank his head and the adjutant who hurriedly hurriedly scolded him with a livid face, and then shut the two of them out without hesitation.

"Love the country more than the beauty, that's not good," Lin Xiaodong smiled and accepted the snack gift package that the staff officer had no time to take away, shook his head and sighed, "If Gu Xi becomes the emperor, he will definitely be a dazzling monarch. "

The system's tone was raised slightly, as if it was very incomprehensible: "Who is the beauty?"

Lin Xiaodong said brazenly, "It's me. Why, I'm almost an interstellar popular idol, why can't I brag about myself?"

System: "Shameless."

But what Lin Xiaodong said was indeed true.

After the live broadcast, as the last mermaid in the world, Lin Xiaodong successfully stood out from the stars in the entertainment industry with his natural voice and a beautiful face, and became an undisputed national idol in the hearts of people all over the world. .

Although Gu Xi firmly does not allow anyone to make money by selling his related peripherals, it is said that in the remote stars outside the central star, hundreds of millions of people have made posters of the few minutes of Lin Xiaodong's appearance in the live broadcast. , posted at home and on the bedside to enjoy day and night; there are many people who record the live broadcast and fall asleep with the singing every night before going to bed; some people even pick up the score of the song and play it with various musical instruments to make light Brain Ringtones, the number of downloads in just one week has reached the total population of a medium-sized habitable planet.

In addition, eye-catching netizens also discovered the account that Lin Xiaodong had registered on Xing.com. On the day it was exposed, his number of fans rushed to the homepage of Xing.com with 15 times more than the second place. Hot search. After a few days of fermentation, today's "I have a big tail" has become a super anchor with tens of billions of fans and the first fault in both the music area and Quanxing.com.

Of course Gu Xi knew these things.

During this period of time alone, thousands of interstellar groups took the initiative to come to the door with money, eagerly hoping to cooperate with Lin Xiaodong.

Together, these costs are enough to support the military expenditure of the military for a whole year.

But he didn't want these fame and fortune disputes to affect Lin Xiaodong's life.

In the eyes of a man, no matter how many years have passed, the little mermaid is always the innocent look he had when he first met, living by the clear Jialan Lake, always free and carefree.

"Let me go."

But when he turned around, Lin Xiaodong took the initiative to say.

"...Why?" Gu Xi was puzzled.

In his opinion, Lin Xiaodong is also tired of these things.

What's more, mermaids don't have any obligations to humans, but humans owe them too much.

The little mermaid looked up at him: "Because you are not happy."

Gu Xi's fingertips dangling beside him trembled.

"They all want me to sing. Although I don't understand the big truths they said, they should be to save people." Lin Xiaodong flicked his tail, lowered his eyes, and showed a cute and sensible face that was distressing." I know you're worried about me, but I don't want to embarrass you either."

"As long as you're happy. If you're happy, I'm happy too."

Lore!

After some words, not to mention the good person stuck, Lin Xiaodong didn't get a response for a long time, still wondering if he didn't lyrically express himself, suddenly Gu Xi came over and half-kneeled in front of him.

"Go to a place with me," he said looking straight into Lin Xiaodong's eyes, "just tonight."

*

But until they got on the aircraft, Gu Xi didn't tell Lin Xiaodong where their destination was.

Lin Xiaodong watched them fly farther and farther, and even used the wormhole jump in the end, and couldn't help hugging his big tail in horror: "He, he, he would not want to take me to a place where no one was there. On the planet, are you ready to hide fish in a golden house?"

System: "..." What the hell is a fish hidden in a golden house.

But Gu Xi was obviously an adult human with normal brain circuits. When the aircraft finally stopped, he covered Lin Xiaodong's eyes with a black cloth, and dragged him slowly to the porthole.

"Mysterious." The little mermaid's voice sounded like she was complaining, but it was mixed with a strong smile, "What the hell are you doing?"

"This is my gift to you." Gu Xi whispered behind him.

The man's fiery chest was pressed against his back, and the warm air flowed past his ears as he spoke, bringing a shuddering itch.

Lin Xiaodong swallowed his saliva unconsciously, the darkness is always more imaginative: "What is it?"

"look."

The cloth wrapped around his eyes fell gently, and the little mermaid's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the little mermaid opened his eyes slowly with some discomfort.

What caught my eye was not the dazzling light I imagined.

It's a nebula with a beautiful glow.

Except for the dashboard of the cockpit, the lights in the entire flight cabin are all extinguished, and the dim background makes the light of the stars outside the porthole softer and brighter. From a distance, the shape of this nebula is like a nebula blooming in the vast galaxy. glowing roses.

"NGC2237, the Rose Nebula," Gu Xi took a step forward and stood side by side with him, his dark eyes reflecting the bright stars outside the window, "You once asked me which sentence in the book "The Little Prince" was my favorite, I didn't give you the answer that time, but now I'll say - 'My beloved flower is there, on that distant star.'"

He turned his head, looked directly into Lin Xiaodong's eyes, and said softly:

"You came to me from the stars, so..."

"I bought the most unique rose in the universe and gave it to you."

The universe is silent and silent.

Lin Xiaodong stared at this magnificent nebula composed of young hot stars and warm cosmic dust for a long time, and suddenly laughed.

Gu Xi asked with some doubts: "What's the matter, don't you like it?"

"No," he shook his head, and looked at the man with a frown, "I just didn't expect that you really care about this so much."

He pointed to the rose earrings that Lu Xing had given him on his ears.

Gu Xi said blankly, "I didn't..."

"I know, Mr. Gu is broad-minded and generous," Lin Xiaodong said with a smile, deliberately widening his eyes, "I've never been jealous, how could I be jealous?"

Gu Xi: "..."

He began to reflect on whether he was too used to Lin Xiaodong recently.

"However, I'm very happy." The little mermaid changed the conversation, and with a smile, she approached a man who had been black-faced after being punctured, and kissed him softly on the cheek.

"Thank you for the rose, I like it very much."
