Chapter 50 Thumb
When Quint walked into the White Tower, he happened to meet Angelita coming out with a bouquet of flowers on her communication. The female Omega was rarely seen wearing a black suit and skirt, her long curly hair was rolled up, and she was obviously going to visit some serious person.Seeing Quint, she said to her husband, who was the Minister of Defense, "I'll call you back later" and turned off the communication.
Kunt stretched out his hand and gently pinched the delicate petals still covered with dew, and said with a smile, "Has the minister become so romantic?"
Angelita rolled her eyes, snorted coldly, and uttered a very rare swear word: "He's so romantic, I want to beat him up if he has low EQ in some aspects. These flowers are for you."
"Give it to me?" Quint took the flowers from Anjie's hand, and looked for the small sign on it: "I didn't ask Hyperion to send it again."
Before the flowers that Hyperion ordered from the girl on the side of the road were delivered for a week, Quint asked him to stop. Every time the flowers were delivered to the White Tower, there were always spectators. What to do with these bouquets, I told Hyperion not to send any more.
"That's your other admirers." Angelita also leaned over to look at the sign. There was only one sentence of love written on it, and the signature part was blank. I haven't had this kind of treatment in 800 years after I was beaten up."
"It's not interesting to do these fancy things, as long as people treat you wholeheartedly." Quint lowered his head and sniffed. Although he didn't know who sent it, his mood became better after all.Angelita shrugged: "That's all I can think of. He's so stupid that he can't hook up with others. By the way, how far have you and General Morse got?"
"That's it."
"Well, every time I ask you to give me this answer, explain in detail." Angelita asked, "This is related to the life event of the oldest unmarried Omega in the entire White Tower."
Quint was silent for a while, and said softly: "I almost found the feeling of falling in love back then."
Angelita was taken aback for a moment, then covered her mouth in surprise, and exclaimed, "My God! You two have been together before?!"
"Keep your voice down." Quint pulled her into the corridor, nodded to the researchers who came over curiously, and said in a low voice, "We used to be together for a while, but we broke up when he went out."
Angelita hurriedly calmed down and regained her elegant appearance, but the hand tightly holding Quint's arm still betrayed her surprise: "I always thought that you two had a crush on each other back then, but you didn't say it clearly."
Quint said lightly: "I met him when I went to the Seventh Army for an internship assessment. He confessed to me, and we got together after that."
"Didn't you tell anyone?"
"Connor knows that you went to the Federation to exchange and study at the time, so you never had a chance to tell you."
"Then why did you break up?" Angelita asked cautiously, "Did he propose it?"
"Well, he probably was afraid that leaving for too long would delay me." Even though it had been many years, Quint still felt a throbbing pain when he thought of the scene at that time. He took a deep breath and smiled at Angelita: " But it doesn’t matter anymore, now we don’t have as many scruples as before, so there shouldn’t be any major problems.”
"Then I'm relieved." Angelita breathed a sigh of relief, tiptoed to give Kunt a hug, and sincerely smiled and congratulated: "It's great that you can find the person you love the most. "
After finishing the secret conversation with Hansenton, Hyperion returned to his office in the military headquarters, sat for a whole morning to deal with official business, and went to the White Tower to receive treatment in the afternoon.The goal of treatment at this stage is mainly to stabilize his condition, so it is much milder.Without the purgatory pain before, Hyperion lay in the treatment cabin, and it was over after a peaceful sleep.
Quint went to the workshop to see the progress, and Hyperion sent him a message to pick him up from get off work.
When Quint came out of the workshop door, he was looking down at the terminal. Hyperion intentionally and silently made a stop on the path he must pass, waiting for someone to bump into him.
one two Three--
"Sorry!" Quint bumped his head on Hyperion's chest accurately, and felt that the top of his head touched his chin when the bumped person suddenly raised his head, and he cried out in pain while covering his head.He took two steps back one after another, and when he saw Hyperion's smiling face in front of him, his guilt turned into anger, and he stretched out his hand to beat him.
"Does it hurt?" Hyperion reached out and rubbed the top of his hair, and received two painless punches from Quint without changing his face, and when he hit the third punch, he clenched his fist and took a step forward. Gently pushed him with his chest: "Who do you want to hug while walking without looking ahead?"
"With you." Quint was annoyed by him, and people in the workshop couldn't help but look at them when they came out, wondering if the pair of AOs who were genetically selected in Congress had turned out as most people expected together like that.They were all acquaintances, and Quint was a little embarrassed by the look. He dragged Hyperion along and said, "I'm here to see how the students are doing."
"The cubs are all excellent. They are as good as what I had back then. It's just a field survival test, so don't worry too much." Hyperian drove the aircraft over and opened the door for Kuntra.
As a high-tech, long-distance transmission is currently only put into civilian use on a few super-prosperous planets including the capital star, and the price is very expensive. If it is not in a hurry, Hyperion usually uses aircraft.Quint sat in, feeling a little thirsty, holding the terminal that turned into a tablet, and asked Hyperion if there was any water.
Hyperion took out a bottle of red wine from the dark cabinet, pulled out the cork, and poured him a glass: "Drink this."
"What do you want to get me drunk?" Quint teased, but did not refuse.
Hyperion and Quint lightly clinked their glasses: "If I really want to do something, I don't need to get you drunk."
That's hard to say.Quint shook his head with a smile, and changed the subject: "Where are we going for dinner?"
It hasn't been long since Hyperion came back, and his understanding of the imperial cuisine is still at the stage of 20 years ago: "You decide."
"Well, I know a small shop. The owner is also from Zhumingsha. The food there is not bad. If you don't mind, let's go there to eat."
"Okay, to be honest, I haven't eaten Zhumingsha's dishes except for the ones you cook." Hyperion opened the positioning map, Quint had a sip of wine in his mouth, his cheeks were swollen, and he pressed the small button. The location of the restaurant.
Although it is a small shop, there are still quite a few people. The owner of the shop is a young male Beta, who seems to know Quint. The two chatted in Zhumingsha, but Hyperion did not open the translator to listen. , He looked around at the very oriental decoration in the store. Just after looking around, Quint pulled him up to the private room on the second floor.
All the dishes were made by Kun. While waiting for the dishes to be served, the two of them discussed the upcoming itinerary and bought the tickets for the top [-] selection in the mech competition tonight.Quint took apart Zhumingsha's usual chopsticks and taught Hyperion how to use them. After Hyperion couldn't count how many times he dropped the cucumber sticks on the plate, he still laughed and asked the waiter for a pair of knives and forks.
The first batch of residents in Zhumingsha were a small group of orientals who moved over during the period of the great interstellar discovery. Because of the remote location, their bloodlines have been kept relatively pure, and they have not lost their ethnic characteristics after long-term intermarriage like other places. .However, the situation has changed since it became a vassal state of the empire 20 years ago. A large number of people from the empire went to Zhumingsha to play, which drove local tourism and at the same time intermarried with local people, just like the son of a shopkeeper with black hair and black eyes is a mixed race.
Quint's father is a pure Zhumingsha people, and his mother has the blood of the imperial people, otherwise he and his brother would not have amber eyes.
With Hyperion around, he was not afraid of leftovers at all, Quint drank watermelon juice with a straw in his mouth, and watched Hyperion finish all the food.After eating and drinking enough, it was almost time for the mecha competition to start. Quint swiped on the terminal to pay the bill, and the two went to the competition venue.
The top [-] promotion competition was much more exciting than the previous preliminary competition. After halftime, it was the turn of the little Beta who had seen him in the preliminary competition before. Cheers from the audience - beautiful people are always more popular no matter where they are.
"Now on the court is our high-profile young player Colin Bell! He proved his strength with his sharp style and beautiful Moebius maneuvers in the preliminary round! On the other side is George, who is known as the 'Iron Bull' Green, broke into the top 32 of the Silver Eagle Mecha League last year! Let us wait and see who will win this game!"
The impassioned voice of the narrator resounded throughout the arena, the transparent protective cover was raised, and the two contestants entered the special mechs.Before turning over, Colin scanned the entire arena, as if he was looking for something.
Hyperion specifically declined the organizer's invitation today, and sat in the middle row that was originally scheduled, so he was not seen by him.Quint saw little Beta's movements clearly, and poked Hyperion with his elbow: "Your little fanboy is looking for you."
"I didn't see it." Hyperian moved his head closer, smiled and said in a low voice, "I only have eyes for you, and I can't see anyone else."
"Don't be serious." Quint tilted his head to avoid him. Although he said so, his mood still inevitably jumped up because of this love sentence.
The arena was already in full swing, Colin was pressing hard, and his moves were fierce and deadly, while George deserved his title of "Iron Bull", his defense was impenetrable, and Colin couldn't succeed even once, the mechs collided with each other. The audience's exclamation was heard loudly, stimulating everyone's eardrums.
Seeing that the game entered a stalemate, Quint tapped the armrest with his finger and said, "Why do I think...his style is a bit like yours?"
Hyperion nodded: "Like when I was in my 20s."
"Don't make an evaluation?"
Hyperion thought for a while, then hummed and said, "The child's talent is quite good."
"Gone?"
"Gone."
"Why do I feel that this review seems to be below the standard of General Morse?"
"The traces of imitation are too heavy, there is nothing to comment on, let's talk about it after he starts to go his own way." Hyperian gently scratched Quint's palm with his finger, leaned into his ear and whispered: "Why, what do you mean? ah."
Quint turned his head to look at him, his cheek just brushed the corner of Hyperion's lips, and when he was about to speak, his lips were blocked.
In the turbulent sky, the two squeezed into the lovers seat and kissed. Although he knew that the cheers and screams around him were not for them, Hyperion still felt that he was receiving the blessings of thousands of people.
Not knowing what happened in the stands, Hyperion led Quint out of the arena, the lights on the street were not as bright as in the arena, and the two cast long shadows on the ground.Quint raised his hand to look at the time, and raised his head to ask Hyperion, his eyes brightened with excitement: "It's still early, where are we going next?"
Hyperion temporarily contacted a mecha training ground owned by the Morse family, and stretched out his right thumb: "Would you like to take you to the mecha?"
Quint smiled, didn't speak, just like 20 years ago, he grabbed his thumb.
The author has something to say: We will be officially together soon
