I'm not Yingjie

He turned his head and said in a creepy tone: "It's about how to kill her."

At this moment, he stood in the shadow of the light, looking at those eyes that were both ferocious and pleading.

Maybe there really was a way to save his student.

She was a perfect research body, but she was also his student, wasn't she? During the three years they spent together, this child was smart and cheerful, smiling like a little sun every day, and liked to serve him tea and water, rub his shoulders and back, and the teacher came and went.

She also often talked to me about her younger brothers and sisters. After their parents passed away, she had been taking care of them. She said that after the collapse was over, she wanted to take them to settle in Shenzhou and travel happily every day.

By the way, she also likes to drink yogurt, especially the sour kind. She would occasionally look at other girls’ well-developed breasts with envy, and talk loudly about the handsome boy she met today.

She still has a future. She can still lead her brothers and sisters. She can still drink milk every day. She can still laugh cheerfully. She can still...

She can still live.

He looked at his panicked self in the reflection of the scalpel, distorted in the light.

Gradually...the scalpel was released.

……

He stood in front of the bathroom faucet, washing the blood off his hands.

He took off his gloves, which were stained with bright red blood, and rinsed the sticky red liquid.

But no matter how I wash it, it can't be cleaned.

Chapter 54: How to Make New Friends

"Hey Kevin, did you miss me?"

Alicia waved to Kevin who was walking down the corridor, but the other party stopped coldly, looked at her, and said nothing.

“Oh…” Alicia moved closer, staring at his cold expression and grinning mischievously, “If it were Lin, he would have said ‘no’ at this moment.”

"……Is there a problem?"

"Hey, I just got here, can't you come and welcome us?"

"We are on a mission, not here for a welcome party."

"You're saying exactly the same thing as Lin."

"If you want to talk to Lin, you can open your communicator and have a good chat with him now." Kevin turned around and walked into the conference room. "But if you want to hear about the progress of the next mission, come in."

Alicia shrugged, pointed to the seats in the corridor to the girl behind her, and followed Kevin in.

The girl sat on the chair in a daze, staring at the closed door of the conference room.

"Captain Lin?" After a while, a puzzled voice attracted her attention, mainly because of the word "Lin" in his words.

Kosmo looked at the girl in surprise, but he soon realized that this person was not Lin, but a woman wearing the same helmet.

After the sixth collapse, Hen's temporary team was disbanded and reorganized, and Kosmo returned to the first team as Kevin's deputy. Naturally, he followed Kevin to Shenzhou on this mission.

After hearing that the 13th team had arrived, he wanted to go with Kevin to discuss the next mission with Alicia, but he didn't expect to meet a girl who looked like Lin here.

"Sorry, I made a mistake..." Kosmo quickly calmed down, apologized, and then looked at the girl and wanted to say something.

Why is this person wearing Captain Lin's helmet? This style is not wrong. Although I have rarely seen it, I have a deep impression of it.

Do you wear the same helmet because you admire Captain Lin? But this helmet can't actually improve combat efficiency. It would be better to change it to a more convenient system. Just remind her.

And her temperament is similar to that of Captain Lin, could they know each other? And then Captain Lin asked her to wear this helmet, so wasn't it unnecessary for me to remind her?

Oh, no, it could be a coincidence that she also chose this helmet. If Captain Lin saw it, would he think that no one reminded her that choosing a more advanced system was bullying the new recruits?

Okay, I'll just remind you.

"You..." Kosmo thought about it and spoke slowly.

"..." The girl waited for him to speak in silence.

"...No, it's nothing."

The girl looked at the man in confusion, who seemed to have been in deep thought for a long time and seemed to be hesitant to speak. It was obvious that he had something to say, but why did he hold it back?

The girl, influenced by Lin's straightforwardness, asked the guide without hesitation: "Do you know Lin?"

"I know him." Kosmo didn't expect the girl to ask him so directly, and that she and Lin actually knew each other.

"What's your name?" the girl asked again.

"Kosmo, deputy of the first team."

"I am MSA-970."

"..."

"..."

and then?

After saying this, the girl seemed to have completed her mission and stopped talking.

Kosmo looked at the girl cautiously. Ever since the fifth Honkai suicide squad incident, he had been thinking a lot, and this girl who seemed to have a lot of connections with Lin made him imagine even more.

Why didn't he say his name? Was it because he hesitated to speak just now and made her feel bad? Or was it because his answer was too simple and made her feel rude?

But he didn't mean to be rude, he just felt that Kevin's simple and clear way of speaking was very efficient.

How about you explain it and ask for my name?

No, it could also be that Captain Lin hates him?

If you think about it carefully, since this person's helmet is exactly the same as Captain Lin's, then she might be Captain Lin's disciple, just like his relationship with Kevin. Could it be that Captain Lin said privately that he hated him, which made this person hate him too?

No, no, Captain Lin is definitely not that kind of person...

Could it be that the part that Captain Lin described when he mentioned him caused this person's disgust?

It must be because he still has some shortcomings, right? Then just ask her for advice and change it in time.

"that……"

"..."

"No, it's nothing."

This man had been standing there for nearly ten minutes, but the total number of words he said did not exceed thirty. The girl just looked at him silently as he stared at her, and the two of them fell into a strange silence.

“Is the food here delicious?”

After a while, the girl remembered something important and asked Kosmo.

"is acceptable."

What does this mean?

What is she testing?

Will anyone ask if the food is delicious as soon as they come?

"Lin often cooks Shenzhou dishes for me. He said that compared to the Far East, Shenzhou is more like his hometown, so the first dishes I learned were from Shenzhou." The girl stammered as she recounted the conversation between her and Lin. "Is there any midnight snack here?"

"No, you are not allowed to go out at night."

"Oh……"

From the sound of her voice, she seemed a little regretful.

Kosmo was a little confused about this girl. He had no idea whether what she said had any deeper meaning.

The girl in the helmet blinked her eyes and tilted her head, "Don't you want to talk?"

"No..." Kosmo subconsciously wanted to deny it.

Strange, was she chatting with him?

"Oh, well, then you should also tell me about your captain. He must be Lin's good friend." The girl patted the seat next to her. There was still a large empty space on the bench.

Kosmo sat next to her hesitantly, gradually becoming curious about the girl.

His intuition told him that this was someone as special as Lin.

"Captain Kevin is indeed Captain Lin's friend. They were close friends before I joined the Fire Moth."

Kosmo recalled the tacit cooperation between Kevin and Lin in the windy border town during the fourth collapse, and the natural smile on Kevin's face every time he mentioned Lin.

But since he returned to the First Team, he had never seen Kevin smile again.

"He is now the most powerful warrior of the Fire Moth, and he has to bear more and more burdens." Kosmo muttered sadly.

"No, Lin is the strongest." The girl shook her head, interrupting his sentimentality.

"Hmm? But Captain Kevin is far superior to Captain Lin in terms of physical fitness."

"Lin beat him in sparring."

"That's just training. In actual combat, Captain Kevin cleared an entire Class A danger zone by himself last time."

"Lin is fine too."

"No, Captain Lin is certainly very powerful, but Captain Kevin is indeed the strongest warrior of the Fire Moth right now."

"No, it's Lin."

Just as the two of them were arguing louder and louder over a fictitious title, and the sound of children's quarrel was about to echo throughout the corridor, the door of the conference room opened.

"Kosma."

Kevin stood at the door, staring indifferently at Kosmo, who stood up with a red face and thick neck.

And Alicia couldn't help laughing as she looked at the angry girl.

Chapter 55: Second Contact

The moment a person grows up is not when he finds himself lonely, but when he is able to endure loneliness.

I hate the world created by language, so from beginning to end, I just live in my own world.

Enduring loneliness...

……

"Alien visitors, the information obtained from communicating with them is as above."

Kevin projected the information onto the screen in the conference room. His stern face looked even more serene under the pale light of the screen, revealing a strange indifference overall.

At this time, Alicia put away her frivolous attitude and began to look carefully at the information that did not seem to be much, but each one made people frown.

"The name of their race is... Xingcai?" Alicia had an indescribable feeling when she saw this simple name. "Have you confirmed that they are an alien race?"

"They told us all the information, so there is no way to verify its authenticity, but they took the initiative to provide a method. I will explain it to you after you read the information." Kevin's mood did not change much. It was unclear whether he had gotten over his initial surprise or he no longer had any extra emotions about this kind of thing.

"..."

Alicia continued reading, but her brows furrowed more with every step she took.

This race called Xingcai comes from a galaxy at least 500,000 light-years away from Earth. They are a race very similar to humans. The level of development of their planetary civilization is similar to that of Earth, and their technological level is higher than that of humans.

They also suffered collapse.

After the surface was filled with Honkai energy, Xingcai could no longer survive on their home planet, so they transformed the remaining individuals of the race into mechanical life forms, studied Honkai, and eventually created ships that could travel through space and interstellar space. However, it was difficult for them to control the direction and distance of the ship's travel, so they could only drift in the universe until they came to Earth by chance.

This kind of coincidence is just like picking up a needle in the ocean. An alien race that started sailing from 500,000 light years away unexpectedly arrived on Earth where life exists?

"...So, now they want to settle down on Earth?" Alicia asked Kevin after reading this brief information.

"To be precise, it's a part of Xingcai." After she learned the general information, Kevin began to talk about the results of his contact with Xingcai when he came to Shenzhou first. "They will also provide technology and experience in fighting the collapse. The condition is that they hope to divide an area for Xingcai to live in, which is about the area of ​​a province or city."

"Part, then is it the turn of the other part next?"

"Just like there are doves and hawks in human political parties, there are also some stars who do not want to live in peace with humans. What they want is the entire Earth, and they want to invade human society and then destroy humans." Kevin said expressionlessly, "Among the stars that landed in Shenzhou, two-thirds are hawks, and the remaining one-third are the ones who contacted us."

"It sounds like a clichéd story about an alien invasion." Alicia smiled. "Killing the natives in order to occupy the planet is both absurd and reasonable."

"Those constellations that have contacted us are also willing to help us resist the invasion of hawks and try to persuade other constellations to coexist with humans."

"I guess this is the fundamental reason why they came to contact us, and the conditions should be very interesting."

"They want to study the Herrscher Core."
