Captain Than Wouldn't Bend [Interstellar]

Red Scorpion never thought until his death that this was the last time he saw the snow in Myers Fortress.

He originally planned to buy a ticket to go back to Blue Star to see his wife and children after finishing this ticket.

Until Red Scorpion lay on his back in the cold snow, the dark red blood slowly soaked through the protective clothing, and finally bloomed on the snow, his eyes were still wide open, staring blankly at the gray-white sky.

The man in black put away his gun and rummaged through Red Scorpion's body.

2 minutes passed.

Beads of sweat began to form on the man's cheeks.

"Where is the thing?? Where did he put it?!"

"What's going on?" Lou Zhuoyu's voice came from the carriage, with some dissatisfaction.

"The chip... I can't find it." The man lowered his head and his throat rolled.

"Trash." Gu Ye kicked him away, jumped out of the car, and stood at the feet of the disheveled Red Scorpion: "Have you looked for everything?"

"I found... I found it."

Gu Ye pushed Hong Xie's clothes away with his feet: "Aren't there any bags inside the clothes?"

"No."

Gu Ye was silent for a moment, and noticed Red Scorpion's gauze-wrapped wrist still oozing blood.

"Take it apart." He kicked Red Scorpion's hand.

The man did as he was told.

As the gauze was peeled off layer by layer, the skin that had not yet scabbed was exposed.

A half-finger-long scar with a square the size of a fingernail protruding from it.

The man finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, peeled off the chip sealed with waterproof glue, wiped it carefully with his sleeve, and handed it to Gu Ye with both hands.

The engine roared, and the man in black sat in the driver's seat in front, and the car finally started heading towards the valley.

The outside of the car is full of jagged ice rocks and collapsed snowdrifts, and the road is almost invisible, but the inside of the car is surprisingly stable.

The six mechanical arms were nimbly climbing the mountains, and Gu Ye could only see the scenery outside the window receding quickly.

With the chip in his hand, Gu Ye is very interested in the contents, but he still has no way of knowing what is inside.

Maybe Lou Zhuoyu knew?

Gu Ye turned his gaze from the chip to Lou Zhuoyu.

"Some experimental data." Lou Zhuoyu stroked Gu Ye's palm.

This is not a secret inside the base. The base will receive such a chip every once in a while, along with other things, such as the one in the suitcase.

"嗤—咚咚——" There was a slight sound of friction and knocking in the carriage behind him.

Gu Ye looked back suddenly and found the source of the voice.

It was the suitcase that was half the height of a person.

He suddenly turned his head to look at Lou Zhuoyu.

Is...alive...?

Lou Zhuoyu didn't speak, just lowered her eyes, but there was a layer of mist in her eyes.

Gu Ye only felt a chill rushing up from the soles of his feet, spreading all the way to the top of his head, making his whole body feel cold.

"Chee-chh-"

The only sound left in the air is the sound of the mechanical arm buckling in the snow.

Along the way, Lou Zhuoyu's eyes hardly moved away from Gu Ye's body, the fiery eyes seemed to engulf Gu Ye, making Gu Ye's ears feel hot.

But the man from the base was sitting in the front cab, he couldn't speak, he could only accept it passively, and stared back not to be outdone.

Who knows that it doesn't matter if he doesn't stare, the already beautiful peach blossom eyes are watery, the corners of the eyes are red with tears and moles, this stare seems to be a ball of fire, completely igniting the explosive barrel in Lou Zhuoyu's heart.

So the gaze on the other side became even hotter.

Gu Ye: ...

In such a strange atmosphere, the car was speeding through the snow-capped mountains.

I don't know how long I walked through the snow-capped mountains, until the gray-white gloomy sky was replaced by glacier rock walls covering the sky, leaving only a line of white cracks, and the speed finally slowed down.

A magnificent base embedded in the glacier finally slowly appeared in the field of vision.

Lou Zhuoyu suddenly and quietly held Gu Ye's wrist, and there was a slight "click".

Gu Ye turned his head to look at him: What is it?

Lou Zhuoyu mouthed: jammer.

"Beep——" the car stopped steadily.

Arrived at the station, the tinder base.

Gu Ye and Lou Zhuoyu jumped out of the car and finally saw the whole picture of the base.

The overall white building complex is built in the middle of the mountain, almost blending with the surrounding white glaciers.

Numerous aircrafts were patrolling back and forth in mid-air. There were several giant cannons mounted on the tall city walls. The muzzles of the black muzzles were facing the city. Guards with live ammunition stood guard every few steps.

In front of the base is an open flat land, which can be seen from the city wall.

It's like a city outside the world.

Gu Ye exhaled softly, followed Lou Zhuoyu to the gate of the base without saying a word, with the driver dragging the box in front of him.

No one knew that when he jumped out of the car just now, a tracker ant the size of a grain of rice fell out of his cuff and fell into the soft snow.

The mechanical ant's eyes flashed red, and it burrowed into the ground as soon as it landed, and then turned off the power, waiting for the day when Gu Ye woke him up again.

Gu Ye tried his best not to let his eyes fall on the suitcase, thinking that there might be a living life in the suitcase, he couldn't help but feel chills.

The door is getting closer.

Gu Ye saw two guards coming out, brushed past them, went behind them and drove the parked vehicle back to the hangar embedded in the city wall.

There was someone in front who was being checked at the door, ready to go out.

He opened his hands, and the guards scanned his body with instruments, and then carried out fingerprint comparison and iris verification one by one, and above their heads were two giant cannons, the muzzles of which were facing them.

Once he found something wrong, he would be blasted to ashes even the guards who checked him.

Until a sound of "beep—identity confirmed, allowed to enter" sounded, and his identity information was displayed on the light screen:

【Name】Adamson

【Position】Level Ⅳ researcher

……

Gu Ye didn't care about such a strict inspection.

As long as Lou Zhuoyu dared to bring him here, there must be a way to fool these sophisticated instruments.

He believed in him.

The red rays scanned Gu Ye's body, fingers, and irises.

The machine beeped again.

"Identity confirmation, permission to pass."

Gu Ye glanced at the information on the light screen:

【Name】Zheng Ye

【Position】Second-level investigator

……

Lou Zhuoyu followed closely behind, Gu Ye turned around and saw Lou Zhuoyu's message.

【Name】Ye Gu

【Position】Second-level investigator

……

"Ye... Gu." Gu Ye chewed the name on the tip of his tongue, and suddenly his eyes felt hot.

Ye Gu, read it backwards, it is Gu Ye.

In the past three years, just like Gu Ye, Lou Zhuoyu has never stopped thinking about Gu Ye.

Entering the gate, the goal is a wide avenue, dense and orderly buildings, and researchers in white lab coats who are busy coming and going.

"I'll take you here." The driver handed the suitcase to Gu Ye and bowed.

"...Hmm." Gu Ye pursed his lips, and took the handle of the box stiffly.

"Chichi-"

There was another sound in the box.

The hairs on Gu Ye's back suddenly rose, and he almost gritted his teeth, before he barely suppressed the urge to throw the box in his hand.

When the driver turned and walked away, Gu Ye quickly let go of his hand, frowning and rubbing the hand that just touched the box.

"Let's go." Lou Zhuoyu sighed, took the box skillfully, and walked towards a tall tower inside the base, as if she had done this kind of thing many times.

Gu Ye lowered his eyes and did not speak, silently following behind Lou Zhuoyu.

He felt a little uncomfortable, but couldn't say why.

"... No matter what you see later, you must control your emotions." Lou Zhuoyu suddenly said in a low voice.

As if anticipating something, Gu Ye paused, and responded muffledly: "Yes."

The tower is getting closer, and the number of researchers is increasing.

But no one greeted them, as if these two people were some kind of scourge, lest they avoid them.

Since Level II investigators need to go out frequently, most of them will have "legal" identities in the outside world, so there is no need for these investigators to show their true faces in the base. They all wear black masks, with only two eyes exposed.

This is also to prevent the low-level personnel inside the base from turning back and implicating the real elites of these bases.

This made it easier for Gu Ye to sneak in. In addition, Zheng Ye himself was a sullen and quiet person, and his stature was about the same as Gu Ye's, so Gu Ye did not receive any suspicion.

Arriving at the gate of the tower, they went through the cumbersome identity verification procedure again before the two were able to enter the interior of the tower.

Passing through a narrow corridor, the eyes suddenly opened up, but the scene inside made Gu Ye clench his fists instantly.

In the huge space, the walls are densely packed with hollow columnar petri dishes that are one person high.

In the transparent viscous liquid in the petri dish, there are distorted and deformed... bodies soaked in it.

Without exception, they are all Blue Stars.

Several researchers each held a smart light screen, constantly recording various data of the experimental body in the petri dish.

Occasionally, a petri dish would be pulled into a nearby laboratory, and then there would be bursts of tragic hissing.

Someone came out of another laboratory with a stretcher, and a group of humanoid creatures curled up on the cold metal bed.

Maybe it can no longer be called a human being.

He was as thin as a skeleton, and his skin was festered in large areas, and a yellow-brown liquid flowed out.

His mouth shriveled, presumably without teeth.

He reminded Gu Ye of the man he saw on Nova's spaceship back then, the father of the boy Ian.

Lying there without a sound, he was pushed out and into a small room at the end of the hall.

A black sign hung on the door of the house: "Experimental waste disposal room."

No one pays attention to this poor man, everyone seems to have gotten used to it, there are experimental subjects dying here every day, and he is just one of them.

His death left only one sentence: "Antibody 47 adaptation experiment failed."

Gu Ye's Adam's apple twitched, he felt overwhelming nausea, his body even trembled slightly.

If he had an armed starship in his hand now, he would definitely smash all these dirty, evil, and inhumane things into pieces.

However, there are surveillance cameras everywhere, Gu Ye can only stand there silently.

His eyes were red with anger, and everything here made him feel extremely...disgusted.

But now, he can't do anything...

Can't do anything! ! !

This made Gu Ye so uncomfortable that he almost went crazy.

He followed Lou Zhuoyu into the elevator.

The entire tower was divided into four floors. Through the transparent elevator, Gu Ye saw the lobby on the second floor, which was still full of petri dishes.

The difference was that the lives in the petri dish were replaced by other races, and he even saw some non-human races.

"Ding-dong-"

The elevator stopped.

A researcher saw Lou Zhuoyu dragging the box: "Did you bring it over? Leave it to me."

Lou Zhuoyu passed the box over in silence.

Standing behind Lou Zhuoyu, Gu Ye clenched his fingers in pain.

Until the elevator went up again and came to the third floor.

This is the "staff quarters" of the tower.

"I tampered with the monitor here." Lou Zhuoyu closed the door of the room.

"boom--"

Gu Ye's eyes were red, and he punched the wall.

Then he squatted down slowly and sat against the wall, his fingers clenched and loosened constantly.

Lou Zhuoyu sat down beside Gu Ye.

He stretched out his hand to wrap Gu Ye in his arms.

"...tell me the truth."

Gu Ye's voice was terribly hoarse.
