Mecha Era for Kitchen

On the second day after Artinis was driven to the outskirts of the town by its owner, the town was still peaceful, and the "werewolf that had approached the town ahead of time" that the old mayor said still did not appear within the surveillance range of Artinis .

Originally full of nervousness and excitement, Chen Zikai, who had been running out of the town every one or two hours throughout the morning, lost his enthusiasm and began to sit in the mayor's office drinking tea and eating snacks from the afternoon— —Tea is produced on this planet itself, and it is a plant that Chen Zikai can't even name.It can't be said to be the best, but the taste is a bit similar to scented tea, which is quite good; the dim sum is a product hinted by Kano through his eyes and movements. It was only then that the shortbread was able to escape from Mr. Major General's aura full of appetite.

The two of them began to drink a leisurely afternoon tea in the trembling center of the town, which was already frightened by the approaching great danger.

Chen Zikai found that Kano has an interesting habit. When he needs to keep in touch with his mech at any time, once he sits down, he likes to put his white ID card on his lap, and tap the card slowly with his fingertips. On the head of the golden eagle soaring high, there will be a light 'tat-tat-tat' sound, and then the frequency of blinking will gradually coincide with the frequency of tapping the card.

In order to observe this phenomenon, Chef Chen stared at Kano's face and hands for half an hour.

Under such circumstances, even Kano, who was sitting on the sofa as stable as an iceberg, couldn't hold on any longer. He stopped what he was doing and straightened up from the sofa: "What are you looking at?"

Chen Zikai said confidently: "Look at you!"

Kano: "..."

Chen Zikai didn't finish his sentence, and he continued to be confident: "Everyone is mine, I can't even look at it!"

Kano was very depressed and grabbed a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth, his movements were not elegant at all.He feels that Chen Zikai is really getting more and more... his personality is too unrestrained, compared to the first time when he saw him in the detention center room, he was cautious and stumbled, and he couldn't even speak well. progress.

But for Chen Zikai, this situation is not progress, it's just that after getting familiar with the environment and people, he gradually recovered his own nature.

And Mr. Chen Zikai also knows clearly that it is fun to molested the major general once in a while, and there is no fun after molesting too much, so he changed the topic of 'everyone is mine' at the right time, saying: "Al Tinys hasn't given you any news yet?"

Kano, who got out of this topic, swallowed the pastry in his mouth, leaned back on the sofa, and continued to tap the card casually and gracefully: "No, Artinis's detection range is very wide, I guess mutants will not be able to detect it tomorrow. I will definitely come."

"Are you sure there will be no problems with Artinis' monitoring?"

"I'm not sure. After all, there was no overall monitoring after the damage, but it shouldn't be a big problem." Even if he had a clear idea of ​​the high performance of his car, Kano couldn't be sure whether the maintenance robot alone could make Al Seventy-eight out of ten, Artinise recovered to her best condition, after all, Artinise was tortured too miserably before.

"That's good. I hope Mr. Robert can be more efficient. We can find a way to go back after this wave of wolves." I heard Kano say that the mercenary union is like a huge network of contacts. For each planet, it is indeed their luck to land on an ancient planet with a mercenary union branch this time, and it is not a big problem to return to the alliance star.

At this time, the old mayor is busy checking and unlocking the defense measures in various parts of the town. According to him, as long as he is given another day and a half, the basic defense work of the town can be done well. Don't bother Chen Zikai and Kano anymore.

Kano is quite satisfied with this statement, because the werewolf has not yet appeared, which means that he has a high chance of not having to make a move—although because of Chen Zikai's relationship, Kano did not make a decision to leave the vulnerable rabbits alone. However, in his capacity as a major general of the empire, it is a bit awkward to help the mutants, even if it is to repel another wave of mutants.

Chen Zikai was keenly aware of Kano's thoughts, and he would not have any conflicts with Kano because of this, but the topic after afternoon tea gradually became more and more in this direction, and finally Mr. Chef asked very casually: " Speaking of which, Kano, have you never thought about living in peace with mutants?"

"How is it possible?" Kano expressed his surprise lightly, and picked up a small pastry, "We have always been opposites, and the word peace is too far away from us."

"I think mutants are just for survival, and they are not as vicious as you say." Chen Zikai raised his head to drink tea, and rolled his eyes from the bottom of his heart under the cover of the teacup, "When I was in S[-], I heard What you say is very different from what you say."

Kano continued to express his contempt for Chen Zikai lightly: "Of course mutants will say good things for themselves, how can they believe everything."

Immediately afterwards, Chen Zikai strongly expressed his contempt for Kano: "Then how can you guarantee that...our government is telling the truth?"

Kano was silent for a moment, feeling that he could not guarantee this issue, but he still insisted on his point of view: "Our government is always more reliable than the enemy's words."

"Then tell me, what did the government tell you? Mutants killed humans? Seized human life resources? Threatened human development? Or some other heinous crime?"

"Mutants have indeed killed many humans, and they often sneak into the ranks of mercenaries, or simply mutant mercenaries do not abide by the rules and regulations of the mercenary union, go to the alliance star to murder senior officials of the alliance government, steal confidential scientific research results and intelligence."

"Killed a lot of humans...they came to attack humans first? Attack the alliance star?"

"Of course not. They don't have the technological power to carry out large-scale transportation. The Alliance needs resources, so it sent troops to the planet where the mutants live."

"...Then isn't it that you are actively attacking others?"

"But we only exploited resources, and did not attack mutant towns."

"You ran to where they live without saying a word. Is it normal for them to resist in order to protect themselves?"

Kano seemed to think that this was a bit unreasonable, but then his brain was overwhelmed by another thought, and he skipped Chen Zikai's question directly: "Chen Zikai, why do you always do this. You are a human being, not a mutant , can you stop talking from the perspective of mutants every time."

As an Earthling, Mr. Chen felt that he couldn't understand this point, so he simply followed Kano's example and skipped this question: "I'm just discussing things as they are, is it because there are no aliens in the universe, so you just Catch the mutant and not let him go?"

"There are many alien creatures, and they will also pose a threat to humans, but mutants are the closest to humans, so of course they must be dealt with immediately."

Chen Zikai was about to flip the table and growl in his heart - aren't you talking nonsense? !Mutants were humans at first, they came from the earth just like you, so it's normal to be close to you!It's not normal to be thousands of miles away from you, okay? !Since there are alien creatures that are a threat to human beings, if you don't fight against aliens, you must hold on to half of the original mutants to be crazy, okay? ! !He coughed twice, tried his best to sort out his emotions, and said: "I learned something on S[-], and what you told me, I think there is a misunderstanding between humans and mutants. You really should Change the strategy. Otherwise, the mutants will probably be excused by people with ulterior motives among humans, like the Chefs Association, under the banner of helping the mutants, who knows if they want to use the mutants to seize power in the alliance?"

This was originally a serious political issue, but unexpectedly, Kano said seriously: "I am a soldier, and I only obey the orders of the military."

Chen Zikai raised his forehead and asked in frustration, "Don't your Sevis family participate in politics?"

Can you have some brain cells?You usually look so shrewd, why don't you be so blindly obedient on this issue!

Kano thought for a while, and his eyes showed a very faint blankness: "I have never attended an alliance meeting." After a pause, he added, "Except for wartime."

Chen Zikai's black line, this shrewd and powerful man, is actually so insensitive to politics.

In Chef Chen's view, the reason why the six-star alliance's parliament is so opposed to peacefully solving the mutant problem is because mutants are real, but another reason that may account for a larger proportion is probably that they only erupt from time to time. It cannot shake the foundation of human beings, but a war that will make the people feel a sense of crisis can make the regime in the hands of those in power more stable.

In special times, people are extremely dependent and obedient to the government—because they cannot think of other ways to improve their safety factor.

The major general seemed to understand Chen Zikai's thoughts a little bit, so he continued to explain: "I don't like these flamboyants, and I don't like politicians. Our family is like this. My father is the military general of the empire and occupies a seat in the alliance council. Big seats, but rarely participate in political affairs."

Chen Zikai: "..."

Well, this stuff is still genetic. It seems that the Davis family's dazzling appearance and fierce combat power have made God a little dissatisfied, and finally found some shortcomings in politics.

The topic of politics can stop here, anyway, Mr. Major General can't figure it out.

The two chatted for a while without saying a word, and Kano turned his head to look at the sky outside the window.The stars have gradually fallen into the horizon, and the light is no longer enough to fill the entire room. The major general finally stopped reaching for the plate of snacks: "I'm a little tired, go back and have a rest."

Chen Zikai stretched his waist, and said boredly: "Well, then I'll go back with you and make you dinner by the way. I guess the werewolf won't come today, it's so boring to stay here."

Kano just stood up from the sofa, holding a white identity card in his hand, and was about to put it in his clothes pocket, but suddenly stopped - the red signal light on the side of his card began to flicker violently, Artinis The returned information is quickly displayed on the card screen.

Immediately, a loud siren rang through the entire town, and a commotion erupted on the street outside the building at the same time——

"The werewolf is coming! The werewolf is coming! It's just [-] kilometers away from the town! Everyone, forget about retreating on the other side of the town!!"

"Go! The farther in, the better!"

"The fortifications haven't been set yet! Hurry up! Don't get so close to the town gate!"
