Chapter 33 The Patriarch's Decision
Chapter 33 The Patriarch's Decision
"How's Ledger?" Su Qing's throat was extremely dry due to long-term lack of water, and the voice that came out sounded as sharp as a blade sliding through glass. At first hearing, even he himself couldn't help frowning.
"Let's go out first." Sox's voice was extremely deep, and it contained a lot of emotions. No matter how dull Su Qing was, she could still sense something was wrong.
He stared at Suokes who was squatting in front of him to talk to him, and said seriously and decisively: "You tell me first, I won't go out unless I make it clear." Although every time he said a word, the wound in his throat burst He would spurt out a stream of blood suddenly, and the pain of the wound tearing made him frown.But even so, he still expressed his meaning word by word.
The long-term life in the dark room made Su Qing's five senses not very sensitive. He didn't smell the faint smell of blood coming from his mouth, but Suokes, who is sensitive to five senses, noticed it early in the morning. From the first word Su Qing said, His frown didn't relax a bit.
Although he couldn't fully understand Su Qing's thoughts, as long as he thought of him staying in this dark room for so long, he couldn't help adding a little more pity to his words.
"Hey, stop talking, let's go out first."
He made a gesture to hug Su Qing by the waist, but before his hands touched his body, the eyes of the two collided.Su Qing's eyes were full of stubbornness, although she looked weak in her hands and feet and looked like she was on the verge of falling, her tightly pursed lips revealed the unwillingness in her heart.
Su Qing's exceptionally stubborn persistence unintentionally touched the string in Suokes' mind, and the instinctive possessiveness of the Greco people warned him of a crisis, which made his tone of voice rebuke.
"You still want to ask Ledger! Alright! Let me tell you! If you didn't give him an idea, how could he be executed by the patriarch!"
Sox had never said harsh words to Su Qing, and it was the first time he faced him like this, Su Qing couldn't help being shocked by his aura.That is the majesty of the superior, which makes people want to submit to him.
But soon, Su Qing's fragile nerves were stung by the word "death", and the pain made him wake up, his eyes were covered with mist from the pain in his head, "I! I... .”
Su Qing's body couldn't support anymore, his throat had already made no sound, and before he could express anything, his body went limp and he fainted in Suokes' arms.
If someone asked how Su Qing persisted, she would not collapse in the boundless darkness and loneliness?
First, he believed that Suokes would definitely come to rescue him.Secondly, he just met Ledger as an ally. He believed that with the medical technology on the starship, resuscitating him and his children would be a piece of cake.
But what he didn't expect was that the first news he got about Ledger was the news of his death, and the child he entrusted to take care of...
back to five days ago
Ledger was already delirious when he was sent to the consulting room. Fortunately, Russell's ability was excellent enough to successfully keep their father and son.Just because of the premature birth, Ledger's health has been poor, and he can't even get out of bed, and the child has to stay in the insulation cabin all the time.
Although he always wanted to see Su Qing, Lasse, who took care of him, refused to let him get out of the hospital bed.He also tried to explain to the people who came to visit him that Su Qing did not have any malice, and that he might have fallen because he couldn't stand firmly. Others thought that he couldn't bear to punish Su Qing, so he was even more unwilling to intercede for Su Qing.
Finally, the patriarch returned to the starship on the fourth day after the incident.One of the first things he did was visit Ledger, who had just given birth.
"Ledger, how do you feel about your body after giving birth?" The patriarch looked at Ledger who had just added a baby to the starship with a smile, and rarely joked, "Are you confident that you will have a baby for Orson later, huh?"
After being told by the patriarch, Orson, who followed into the room to look at Ledger, was taken aback for a moment, and then noticed the way people around him looked at him, and felt his face flustered.
Ledger was not shy because of the patriarch's teasing, he said to the patriarch seriously: "Patriarch, Su Qing is innocent, and my premature birth is indeed none of his business, please release him from the dark room. Also, I want to make a request to you, can I raise this child by myself?"
If the first half of his sentence made Suokes face change, then his second sentence was enough to make the patriarch and Orson change color.The patriarch's face was as heavy as water, and he couldn't see his true thoughts, while the blood on Orson's face faded.
Orson seemed to be afraid that the patriarch might misunderstand, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain for Ledger: "Patriarch, Ledger must have just given birth, and his mind is not clear yet, he didn't mean that!"
"No, that's what I mean! I want to raise my own children." Ledger looked at the patriarch calmly, but his words made Orson feel desperate.
The patriarch waved his hand, stopping what Orson hadn't said yet. His face was already ashen, his eyes were gray and dull, and he couldn't see any hope.
The patriarch asked Ledger blankly: "Why do you have such an idea?"
Ledger noticed the change in Orson's expression. Although he was puzzled, he still answered the patriarch's question. Out of instinct, he took most of his thoughts to himself, trying to reduce Su Qing's position in the whole thing.
He talked about the irrationality of the existing Greek tradition, expressed his own thoughts, and expressed a lot of opinions.
Even if his words could fool the patriarch, as Su Qing's partner, Suokes naturally knew that almost all of his thoughts were what Su Qing had told him.Why does it feel so rebellious when someone else says it now? !
"Are you done?" The patriarch waited patiently for Ledger to finish before asking him.
After he nodded his head, the patriarch continued: "Come here, arrest the demagogue Ledger and throw him out of the spaceship. Since you are so disgusted with the rules of our Grek people, then you are not eligible to stay on our starship." superior."
Hearing the news, Orson jumped out and stopped Ledger on the bed with a face full of pain. No matter how much he begged the patriarch, the patriarch had no intention of taking back the order.
Soon, two accompanying Grek soldiers controlled Orson, and the other grabbed Ledger who was still in shock. No matter how weak he struggled, he could not escape the hands of the Grek.
Seeing this scene, Suokes couldn't bear it. After all, Ledger only came up with this idea after listening to Su Qing's words.So he pleaded for him: "Patriarch, Ledger has just given birth and is weak. Let alone him, even we can't survive in the universe for a while without equipment. I think it's better to wait for him Take care of your body first..."
The patriarch glanced at Suokes, and said quietly: "I haven't convicted Su Qing yet, since you want to wait for Ledger to recover before throwing him out, or if Su Qing really has a problem, throw him out too?"
Hearing these slightly threatening words, Suokes didn't dare to intercede for Ledger again, and if he was a little careless, the same result was waiting for Su Qing.
"Hurry up and throw it away?!" The Greco soldier ordered him to throw him out of the starship decisively.Ledger couldn't believe that the patriarch's true face turned out to be like this until he died.
It's only because Ledger was late on the starship. He has had several such examples before, so "raising children by yourself" has almost become a forbidden word, which symbolizes farewell.
The patriarch swept over the crowd again, and said in a deep voice: "I advise you to take care of your partners, and don't think about things you shouldn't have. If this kind of thing happens again, I will help you take care of your partners personally. Ledger is the perfect example."
He glanced at Orson, who was still in the grief of losing his partner, and signaled to the Grek soldiers accompanying him to take him to work on the bottom floor. Collective resources, harming collective interests.
Suokes cherishes talents very much. Even though Orson is a soldier in the second district, he sympathizes with his experience.
Afterwards, the patriarch asked about Su Qing's situation.After Ledger's incident, everyone hated him even more. They thought that if he hadn't caused Ledger to give birth prematurely, Ledger wouldn't have said that kind of thing, and he wouldn't have been exiled to the universe in the end.Therefore, they narrated the whole process of Sue's murder of Ledger with added details.
The patriarch can tell the truth from the fake. In his opinion, if it is another pregnant woman, even if Su Qing is Suoks' partner, he will execute him mercilessly.But now it was Ledger, the patriarch didn't intend to execute Su Qing just because of this, it would make him lose a general, and the gain outweighed the loss.
"Go and bring Su Qing out." After thinking for a while, the patriarch ordered Suokes to stand by silently.
