Quick Wear: Reversing Life

Chapter 405: Star Gold Framed and Imprisoned (53)

Zong Yu didn't know whether Xing Lu heard this.

Maybe I heard it, maybe I didn't.

Zong Yu hoped that she had heard it, but also hoped that she hadn't.

After a passionate sex session, Zong Yu became much busier, as if he was catching up on something. Xing Lu sometimes didn't see him for the whole day.

They only had lunch together occasionally, and after the meal the prince disappeared again.

Xing Lu didn't ask any further questions or inquire about it.

A week passed peacefully in the Prince's Mansion. There was no progress regarding Xing Xue's case, but Organization D was active in the universe again.

Xing Lu was getting a little impatient waiting.

The Prince's Mansion is not a suitable place to sit and wait for something to happen. If she were Xing Xue, she wouldn't be stupid enough to run to the Prince's Mansion to find her.

Being in the Prince's Mansion is called protection, but in fact it is house arrest in another sense.

Xing Lu decided to throw out a bait first.

These days she has already gotten to know the Prince's Mansion thoroughly and knows where the Prince's mecha is stored.

Taking advantage of the dark and windy night, Xing Lu avoided the patrol and came to the prince's mecha hangar.

In addition to transport mechas, there are also combat mechas, humanoid mechas, and some large handheld weapons.

The mechas were lined up in a row, and Xing Lu saw a familiar one among them.

The silver mecha that she sold for a high price.

The prince was indeed brought back.

Xing Lu even felt the joy of seeing an old acquaintance.

In order to save time, Xing Lu directly asked the system to open the permissions.

The moment the authority was activated, the roar of the engine lit up a row of voice-controlled lights in the mecha hangar.

"Who is there?"

The movement seemed to attract the attention of people outside.

Xing Lu discovered through the surveillance inside the mecha that it was someone from the guard team.

The prince, who was still handling government affairs in his study, heard the alarm coming from the virtual screen on his desk.

I saw that Xing Lu, who was supposed to be sleeping, appeared in the mecha.

Zong Yu frowned quickly and tapped the screen a few times to connect the conversation channel.

"Xing Lu, what are you doing?"

"Come back soon."

Xing Lu turned a deaf ear to him. She adjusted the coordinates on the screen, trying to jump directly into the mecha hangar.

Only specific people on the main star have this authority and can directly jump out of the main star, bypassing the space station.

The prince has such authority.

However, the mecha jump will cause fluctuations in the surrounding space, so it is still necessary to fly out of the mecha hangar and into the air.

"Zong Yu, open the door of the mecha hangar."

Zong Yu connected the call to the computer and then walked quickly towards the mecha hangar.

"No, it's too dangerous. Xing Lu, don't go."

"I've already set up a network near where Organization D is."

Xing Lu said, "Freesia wouldn't be so foolish as to fall into a trap. Both she and Xing Xue are targeting me. Instead of waiting in the Prince's Mansion, why not go to space and resolve this matter?"

"Zong Yu, we both have our own things to accomplish. I can't stay in the Prince's Mansion waiting for you to bring me good news."

"I'll treat this week as a vacation. I hope we can both bring good news when we meet next time."

Zong Yu stopped and looked at Xing Lu's resolute expression on the holographic projection. He suddenly realized that Xing Lu was never the one who needed protection.

They can be evenly matched opponents or comrades fighting side by side.

Zong Yu took a deep look at Xing Lu's face, then silently helped her open the door of the mecha hangar.

"I've sent the coordinates of Organization D's most recent appearance to the ship. There's an emergency escape device on board. If you encounter any danger, please contact me immediately."

"Xing Lu——"

A huge roar came from the edge of the Prince's Mansion, swallowing up the second half of Zong Yu's sentence.

A beautiful silver mecha flashed by like a meteor, leaving only the trees rustling in the wind.

Zong Yu looked at the disappearing light spot and put away the computer in his hand.

At this moment, the cold voice of the palace guard came from behind:

"Your Highness, what was that sound just now—"

...

The city below quickly turned into a dense string of lights.

The spacecraft flew into the air and reached the space standard for jump.

[The spacecraft is about to jump, please be prepared.]

Xing Lu entered the jump coordinates, and then the alarm suddenly sounded.

"Attention - Attention - There are patrol planes around the spacecraft -"

After checking the surveillance footage, we found that there were indeed two patrol planes behind us.

At this time, Zong Yu's voice came from the communicator: "Don't worry about it, I'll handle it."

[Jump countdown——]

"Xing Lu, be careful."

【Five, Four, Three】

【two】

【One】

After a strong vibration, the world started to spin.

After a few seconds, the scene before my eyes turned into an endless universe, with an elliptical black hole in the center swallowing up meteorite fragments.

Xing Lu took a look at the radar map and saw that the black hole in front of her was the famous Ringt black hole.

Zong Yu once said that Organization D has been active recently near the Ring Black Hole and seems to be planning to take over the mining planet.

At this time, Xing Lu saw a giant transport ship slowly sailing towards the Ring Black Hole from a distance.

Due to the stability of the Ring Black Hole, many fleets transporting ore will be transported to the main star through the Ring Black Hole.

After passing through the ring black hole, you will be near the main star.

Because this mining planet had suffered many attacks from criminals in the past, the Federal Empire established many military garrisons here, scattered throughout this nebula.

With so many troops guarding the planet, if DEVIL really intends to rob the mining planet, then they may really be well prepared.

Xing Lu deliberately released the signal of the spacecraft, turned off the kinetic energy, turned on the energy-saving mode of the spacecraft, and floated in the universe.

...

While waiting, Xing Lu leaned in the driver's seat and looked at the mysterious and vast universe in front of her.

This place is far away from the sun and is illuminated by the silver parabola drawn by the collision of meteorites in the asteroid belt.

From here, the background color of the universe does not appear to be pure black, but an almost thick darkness, like diluted ink mixed with star particles.

If you keep staring at the universe without blinking, you will have the illusion that the universe is flowing, as if this darkness is slowly collapsing and squeezing her all the time.

The distant star was like a diamond nailed on black velvet, and the light it emitted took an unknown number of years to reach Xing Lu's retina.

They are all galaxies that are countless millions of light years away.

The nebula around the star glowed with a pink and purple light, like torn silk floating in the empty universe.

Being in the universe, everything seems so small.

The spacecraft's jump was just a millimeter of floating on the ocean.

After looking at the universe for a long time, sometimes I forget that I am just a tasker, and even become confused about the meaning of my existence.

Even though Xing Lu knew that looking at the universe too much would lead to an inexplicable pessimism.

Human beings are just a speck of carbon-based dust in the universe, and exploring the universe is nothing more than humans trying to peek into the manuscripts of the Creator.
