Chapter 34

Bixing Lu thought about it and suddenly said, "Old Lu, Are you angry because of that?"

Monoeye Hawk paused at first, and then said in a gruff voice, "Get out and don't be so narcissistic. This father of yours cherishes my possessions that's why I'm like this!"

Bixing Lu patted his shoulder, and said : "This possession thing, it's like building a dam made of sand in a river and enclosing a bit of water. . At birth you have nothing, and in death you take nothing. In a hundred years, the dam will collapse and the water will go into sea with the sand. From the perspective of the universe,  time is meaningless. At best, it will have to be left to somebody -- anyway, it will be left to me one day, so don't worry, alright? I didn't say anything."

Monoeye Hawk was still obstinate and gave a sneer, "Who said you will inherit my possessions? You are not my son. You were picked up from the trash bin!"

It was said that this lie had been included in a special chart which would intimidate children under four years old, along with 'if you don't sleep at night, the wolf will pick you up'.

Bixing Lu listened to the silence for a while and felt a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but look around, sneakily saying: "Old Lu, I am already 30 years old. Can you stop calling me 'baby' in public?"

Monoeye Hawk:"......"

Bixing Lu made fun out of his Persian cat dad, but he did not forget his business,"Did you shoot Spencer? Do you have the earliest blueprints of this site? I'm going to use it."

"You don't need it." Monoeye Hawk's expression was dark. "The general of the IU decided to use this base as bait for the interstellar pirates. Have a good rest for a few days, don't spend the whole day being idle. Do not let your students run around everywhere. We should prepare to evacuate anytime. Otherwise, if an accident is to happen, nobody will help them."

Bixing Lu looked back at the congested buildings and crowded streets: "Evacuate so soon? That still needs to solve the energy problem. Otherwise, if so many people will walk at the same time, and large-scale mechs or starships take off at the same time, the base may be overloaded if it is not properly operated, and... "

Monoeye Hawk interrupted: "No, you don't understand."

Bixing Lu stopped talking.

"It's just a little space station, and it's full of rubbish and worthless scums. Even Wotto, the capital of the First Galaxy, could throw it away without hesitation if necessary. Do you know what war means to these people? It's only a game of chess, the casualty rate is just a number." Monoeye Hawk said, "Do you think he was helpful to you on Beijing-ß? That's because you didn't have any interest that time. You don't know him."

Bixing Lu raised his eyebrows. "Old man, I haven't seen you leave the Eighth Galaxy since I can remember. In terms of Admiral Lin's age, what kind of resentment could you have with him? Did he smash a slingshot through your window when he was a kid?"

Monoeye Hawk bit the cigarette in his mouth hardly.

Bixing Lu said seriously: "Whether it is a grudge or not, even if you know him, this thing is actually quite strange, can you say that? It doesn't matter if you can't say, I will continue to side with him and not you."

Monoeye Hawk: "So you know you're being biased!"

Bixing said: "He is my sponsor, and you? You're just a stingy dad, and a dad who doesn't give money is not a valuable dad ——besides, he is younger and more beautiful than you."

"Younger" and "giving money" were objective facts, and Monoeye Hawk lost out to Admiral Lin.

Bixing: "Or do you have a grudge against his elders?"

"The elder of Jingheng Lin...I don't know how to call him, his father? Teacher? Nevertheless, he is an old friend of mine." Monoeye Hawk said with hesitation, as if it was difficult to say, then he added,"A best friend——for some reason, the man was framed and died."

Bixing Lu:"Your friend? Have I ever seen them before?"

"No, you weren't born that time then." Monoeye Hawk paused. "This man... He was popular, those who framed him thought he was powerful, and the league was full of his associates. Even if he died, they could still frighten the courage of some people. So those who killed him needed to find a person that could control this force. That person is Jingheng Lin."

Lu hesitated for a moment: "The villain in this story... are they all so respectful of laws of succession?"

"No," Monoeye Hawk looked at him quietly. At that moment , his sight seemed to pass through the young man's body, landing on the deserted but hopeful Eight Galaxy of more than one hundred years ago, "At the beginning, they didn't believe Jingheng Lin will be loyal to the Union. Just then, there were a few unruly insurgencies who have ulterior motive around them. In order to test him, they sent him to go to sound out their intention. Do you know his military exploits? The great Commodore Lin was a novice. He became famous because of this war. He destroyed over hundreds of the enemies' mechs, even destroyed a military camp. Three of the old rebels - two of them were killed, and one of them was seriously wounded when Jingheng Lin forced through his mental network."
