23. Chapter 23(1/2)
"Mom, thank you for your breakfast, they are so delicious."
Captain Carter had breakfast, gracefully wiped the corners of his lips with a napkin, and then went over and kissed his mother Princess Anne's cheek with a diligent kiss.
Princess Anne is a beautiful woman with the unique mature charm of a woman of her age. She has a pair of light gray eyes that is exactly the same as Captain Carter. After being praised and kissed by Captain Carter, a smile appeared on her face, and her beautiful gray eyes suddenly became tender and tender, because this tenderness was towards her son, so she was more gentle and tolerant, and infinite patience.
"You're welcome, baby Eddie, you'll come back a rare time. Of course, I'll prepare breakfast for you myself."
Captain Carter immediately showed an unbearable expression, "Oh, Mom, stop calling me baby. If someone else hears this, I will be embarrassed."
Princess Anne smiled and said deliberately, "Eddie, I can't agree to this. You are my son, of course you will always be my baby. I will be sad if you don't admit this."
Captain Carter had no choice but to make a concession, "Then you must not call that when there are outsiders."
Princess Anne blinked, "Okay, I can consider this request for you."
Captain Carter had no choice but to shrugged, "I should leave."
Princess Anne reminded him, "Don't forget, you must come back this weekend night, and your father will come back too. I have prepared a small family dinner to celebrate your promotion. You are so outstanding, my child, I am proud of you."
Captain Carter, "Mom, it's nothing more than a promotion to major."
Princess Anne frowned very well, "Eddie, why do you say that? You have only graduated from military academy for less than a year, and it is rare to be promoted to major in such a short period of time. This is not my prejudice as a mother, but the fact that I don't know when my son has become so humble."
Then he raised his hand and patted his son on the shoulder, and said warmly, "Go away quickly, I know there is a meeting within the Second Army today, don't be late."
My son no longer looks like the cute, beautiful and naughty little boy he used to be. He looks more and more masculine. He is so tall that Princess Anne can't reach his head if she wants to touch him, so she can only pat her shoulder.
Princess Anne was both a little disappointed and very pleased about it. This was her son, the warmest concern in her heart. Even if she was a career-oriented woman and had very limited time to spend on family affairs, she would do everything she could to give Eddie all the love that her mother could give.
Captain Carter - now Major Carter, with a smile, left his parents' capital star, which was worth every inch of land, with a smile, as well as a super luxury home.
Although he was smiling on his face, he felt a little uncomfortable, mainly because he felt that only half of the promotion was based on his own ability, while the other half was because he was benefiting from Lan Shan's glory.
After returning from F-Blue Star, he first reported in detail about the mission situation there. His team fought wits and courage with the star pirates on F-Blue Star and the return journey, as well as the major dangers they encountered, and also handed over the seized materials.
After all the credits and achievements were recorded in detail, Major Carter began to question whether the assignment of this task was reasonable, because judging from the chaos and complexity of F-Blue Star, it was not feasible to take a team of ten people to fight against smuggling.
If not all the team members had outstanding abilities, bravely strive for the first place, and were very lucky, they would not only fail to complete the task this time, but also be killed on f-blue star. The situation was extremely dangerous at that time, and arranging such a task was simply to ignore the life safety of the Imperial Star Wars Army during an unnecessary period!
If an ordinary officer encounters this task, he probably can only admit that he is unlucky and secretly rejoices that he is not killed by the bomb. However, Major Carter is not the one who will suffer a loss, and he is also qualified to question this.
This mission was originally proposed by Prince Lance's secretary and was personally appointed by Major General Grant of the Second Legion.
Although the motivation for Prince Lance's secretary to make this proposal was suspicious, he did not go through the official document notification channel between the two legions. He just mentioned it casually and could not bear any responsibility. At most, he took the situation of F-Blue Star too for granted.
Major General Grant's explanation was made by going to General Song in private.
Because Major Carter is the son of Princess Anne, the nephew of Prince Lance, he believes that this is an action arranged in advance by His Royal Highness for his son to only accumulate achievements, and he tactfully proposed it to them through the prince's secretary, so he directly appointed it.
Major Carter knew that things were definitely not that simple, but it would not be of much significance to continue delving into them. So after Major General Grant made a compensatory proposal to let him implement the configuration of a batch of new ion cannons at the Second Legion's Narcissus Galaxy Garage Base, and let the matter be exposed like this.
Implementing the use of new ion cannons in the garrison is a task that brings benefits. Major Carter took people to the garrison base of the Narcissus Galaxy, and carefully did various statistics. After checking them on the spot, the task was successfully completed.
After returning, he was promoted to major in the Second Legion's special mission main field wing due to his military merits.
Major Carter understood that in order to be promoted so quickly, in addition to his previous accountability, Major General Grant wanted to give him some benefits to calm the situation, the extremely considerable number of black crystal-level energy stones seized on F-Blue Star also made an indelible contribution.
f-He did not participate in the anti-smuggling operation of Lan Xing at all. If you think seriously, Lan Shan should have completed it for him, so his promotion this time was due to Lan Shan's glory.
After feeling that he had overcome the frustration caused by repeated attacks on Lan Shan, Major Carter went to Demosen Military Academy to visit his friend Instructor Gao Li.
Gao Li was a classmate of Major Carter when he was in school at the Dermosen Military Academy. The two had a good relationship. After graduation, Gao Li chose to stay in the military academy. He was also the elder brother of Gao Yan and Gao Fei.
Gao Ligang has changed from a physical training instructor to a formal instructor, and is working hard to sort out the first physical fitness test data of all freshmen after entering the school.
Major Carter and he were not polite, so he went to sit next to him and said indifferently, "Congratulations, I finally became a formal instructor and can get 20,000 Demosen coins per month."
The monthly salary of the intern instructor is only 7,000 yuan. This money is definitely enough for ordinary people. It is no problem to support the family, but it is far from enough for Gao Li, the eldest young master.
Gao Li cried with him for almost a year before this, and was so annoyed that Major Carter almost wanted to force him to meet General Gauguin. He had seen father and son have had a complaint, but he had never seen such a firm and persistent quarrel like the two of the Gao family.
Gao Li's eyes pulled away from the light screen in front of him for a few seconds, glanced at Major Carter, and focused on his new epaulette for a moment, "Congratulations, I should have told you, I was promoted to Major so soon."
Major Carter didn't want to say this, so he didn't say anything.
Gao Li didn't mind either, and his eyes turned back to the light screen to continue working, "Wait for me for a while, and it will be fine soon."
Major Carter, "It's okay, no hurry."
He didn't want to disturb his friend's work, so he didn't say anything. Gao Li was not quiet himself, so he took the time to poke Major Carter with his elbow, "Lend me another hundred thousand Demosen coins."
Major Carter couldn't stand him, "Aren't you converted to a formal instructor, you have 20,000 Demosen coins per month?"
Gao Li lamented, "It's still not enough. I'm going to date Selena tomorrow night. Selena is only willing to go to Blueberry Starlight Restaurant. How can I have enough money?"
Blueberry Starlight Restaurant is one of the most advanced restaurants in Capital Star, with freshest and exquisite cuisine and a high realistic dome of the soft night sky of Blueberry Star.
Major Carter had to open his personal terminal and transfer the money to him, "Your little money is indeed not enough."
On the one hand, I was a little dissatisfied, "Why do people always borrow money from me recently? Do I look like a good-talking gentleman? If you have such a thing in the future, go back honestly and make peace with your father. Don't make any more decisions about me. My finances are also very nervous."
Gao Li got the money, so he didn't mind his attitude and asked, "How much will Mr. Carter give you every month?"
Major Carter disdained, "I'm not a child anymore. Do I still need someone to give me pocket money every month?"
Gao Li looked at him sideways, "Mr. Carter won't give you. Is your monthly income of 10,000 Demosen coins enough for you?"
Major Carter admitted unwillingly, "Of course it's not possible, but my father wouldn't have to give me money every month. He gave me shares in two mine veins."
Gao Li whistled, "Mr. Carter is such a big deal. How much income can these two mine veins bring to you every month?"
Major Carter, “Millions.”
Gao Li accused, "Then you have the nerve to care about this one hundred thousand with me!"
Major Carter was confident, "So what? I don't owe you anything, and I've said that people have always borrowed money from me recently, so I have to control it."
Gao Li was a little surprised. Major Carter's background was destined to have rich people around him. In addition to himself, who had been competing with his father recently and was cut off from his financial resources and was financially in a tight position, who would need to borrow money from him?
Moreover, Major Carter is not a good person. His temper is a little spoiled and he never refuses to suffer losses. His friend has to complain about borrowing money from him. Judging from his tone, he also gave the other person who borrowed money from him, but who is so proud of him?
Just as I was about to ask, the terminal on my wrist suddenly lit up, which was a high-level orange reminder. I immediately jumped up and said excitedly, "Go quickly, go quickly, there is another freshman making trouble in the S1 training ground. I want to deal with it quickly, you and I will go with you."
Major Carter quickly followed. It is normal for students to make trouble in the school every now and then. After all, it is a military academy. It is abnormal if the students are too honest. However, Gao Li's excited expression in his eyes was a little strange and he asked, "Just just go and manage the trouble. Why are you so happy?"
Gao Li said while walking quickly, "You don't know that there is a woman among the freshmen who offended my sister this year. Gao Yan insisted on letting me vent her anger. I originally wanted to wait for the student to perform bad performance one day when he was not good, and then give her the video to Gao Yan to see. Unexpectedly, this freshmen are particularly vigilant. She has escaped twice of punishment. If she can't catch her, let alone Gao Yan is not easy to pass on, I have no place to save my face."
The two left the office area of the military academy, boarded a small on-campus aircraft, and headed straight to the S1 training ground.
The s1 training ground is a physical training ground for lower grade students. It was almost time for supper, and there were no students in class training long ago. Only two groups of people confronted each other in the training ground tensely.
Major Carter recognized Lan Shan among the group of people on the left. Behind her, Luo An, Dais, who was admitted to the military academy with her, and four or five tall boys. It seems that they are professional in mechas like Luo An and the others.
After not seeing her for three months, Lan Shan seemed to have some minor changes. Major Carter found that she would change a little bit every two or three months.
The most significant thing about this change was that she cut her long, shiny black hair short, looking much more delicate and neat. Major Carter was not very accurate for a moment, but judging by his keen observation of the evolution of T-level physique, it should be focused on his figure.
Lan Shan was a little taller, not obvious, but you can see carefully that it was because of the loss of weight. The curve of her figure was not as obvious as before, but she looked more upright and powerful.
Major Carter was slightly confused. Logically speaking, the height of women of Lanshan's age should not change.
Of course, it is not that absolute. Human life is very long now, and they are in their twenties at a very young stage. If you encounter a suitable opportunity, such as proper exercise, it is not impossible to grow longer.
Luo An and Dais are still the same, but they obviously have a more tacit understanding with Lan Shan. This can be seen from the location where they are standing - the distance is very close to Lan Shan.
There were also six or seven people standing opposite them, including men and women.
The lead boy is tall and long legs, with thick black eyebrows and vigorous eyes, sharp and firm eyes. You don’t have to look at where he is standing, just looking at this face, you can tell that he is the head of the group of people on the right.
Next to him was a strong and wild girl. Her thick brown-red curly hair was drooping to her waist, and her sexy red lips were bright and bright. There were also five or six tall boys behind her.
Two groups of people were waiting for a referee robot to give the result. They were very calm when they saw the instructor Gao Li go, which shows that they did not do anything that violated the school rules.
Gao Li low curse, "It's the same again!" It was obvious that the two groups of students had a dispute, and they were about to fight, which alarmed him, the instructor, but they pulled a referee robot to act as a shield, which seemed to be practicing a normal fighting competition between students.
So he pulled Major Carter to stand by, seeing that they shouldn't have finished their fight yet. Maybe they would do some extreme behaviors impulsively. He could catch him directly, so he would save another wasted trip.
After standing still, she did not forget to explain to Major Carter softly, "The boy in the middle of the right is called Zhao Yu, who is the first in the military command major this year; the girl in the middle of the left is called Lan Shan, who is the second in the military command major this year. She didn't know why she got Gao Yan, which made me harassed and disturbed by Gao Yan recently."
After a while, the referee robot gave the result, flashing the blue light on the left, "The blue side attacked ten times at level one, eighteen times at level two; the red side attacked nine times at level one, seventeen times at level two, and one useless attack. The blue side won."
Lan Shan’s side was obviously Lan Fang. Everyone behind her reached out to pat Des on the shoulder and praised, “Good job!” It can be seen that the one that Des went up to fight.
Zhao Yu threw off his military jacket and stepped forward with his head held high, "There is a last game!"
Lan Shan took off her coat and threw it to Luo An slowly.
Major Carter frowned and suddenly wanted to scold people. Did Zhao Yu forget that he was a boy?
But when the referee robot handed Zhao Yu a gravity ring, Major Carter then held back and didn't scold him.
Zhao Yu sared while wearing the gravity ring, "You have a woman's face, why isn't you feminine at all? If you didn't wear this gravity ring every time, I would almost forget that you are a woman."
Lan Shan maintained her usual calmness, "You can do whatever you want, forget it if you want, I don't mind."
Zhao Yu raised his chin and said, "I suggest you don't brag anymore this time and you can beat me in ten minutes."
Lan Shan, "I didn't brag last time, and I did beat you in ten minutes. And I can do this time."
Zhao Yu's face turned cold, "Last time, you used the fake action of tracing the source against the enemy in violation of regulations. Don't think that you can use the same trick again this time."
Lan Shan, "The last time the referee robot did not determine that I violated the rules."
While speaking, the referee robot had already sent a start signal, and the words they said just now were intended to distract each other's attention. Almost as the robot started to send out the signal, it rushed towards each other quickly.
To be continued...
