The situation was as Jiang Jianming expected.

All of a sudden, the blue mother planet was full of public grievances, and more than 20 riots broke out in just three days.The progress of inventorying resources has also been slow. Either there is a miscalculation here, or there is no turnover there.

The entire envoy group headed by Fiennes was devastated, but unfortunately no one could see through Lin Song's hidden game - after all, no one had thought before that the high-ranking official residence could have anything to do with the lord of the wild area.

On the night of the fifth day, the black-eyed Fiennes finally collapsed, kicking the dozen or so brains in front of him to the ground: "Call me Kaios!!"

The guards were ordered to go, and Fiennes waved his big hand again: "——No, wait."

Under the light, the brown-haired, blue-eyed middle-aged nobleman pondered for a moment, perhaps because he felt that he couldn't offend the prince, so a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Forget it, go and bring the young staff officer who is with the prince over here."

Everything that followed was a matter of course.

A dozen guards broke into the room in the middle of the night, and the two who were sleeping together were awakened, and instantly realized in tacit understanding that their last and only chance had come.

The prince was sleeping on the outside. At this time, he suddenly got up and released the crystal bone, as if angrily rebuking the guards for their presumptuousness.And Jiang Jianming, taking advantage of the cover of Lai An's body and crystal bones, quickly took out the tranquilizer from his close-fitting pocket and gave himself a needle.

Guard: "Master Fiennes wants to see His Excellency Dawn Aslan, please come with us."

In a few seconds, Jiang Jianming had already stuffed the empty needle into the quilt, and stood up as if nothing had happened: "Please allow me to wash and change my clothes."

The atmosphere has been tense for the past few days, and the two of them are even cautious about drinking water, and sleep with their clothes on at night.So Jiang Jianming just put on his coat, then simply wiped his face with cold water to wake up, and said it was all right.

Lai An was about to follow, but the guard stopped between the two of them, nervously pressing the gun on his waist, "Your Highness, please stay still."

The prince's face immediately darkened.Jiang Jianming gave him a look and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, it's okay."

...Lai An secretly gritted her teeth and took half a step back.He also knew that only when he was not present could Fiennes let his guard down.

It's just Jiang Jianming's body, just in case something happens... He dared not let people out of his sight these days, but now he wants to put it next to the enemy!

Jiang Jianming emphasized his tone: "Your Highness."

Those black eyes are calm and gentle, clearly saying "the overall situation is important" and "trust me".

Lai An didn't want to meet that gaze, and turned away with a cold snort: "Tell Fiennes, at nine o'clock in the morning and evening every day, I want to see my people safely appear in front of the window of the office in the mansion."

"This is the bottom line."

...

From the prince's bedroom to the main office of the mansion, the long corridor was shrouded in darkness, with only the cold footsteps of guards on both sides.

Jiang Jianming was caught in the middle, his eyes were closed and he was silent, his drooping cheeks were pale in color, and he looked too weak, even a little fragile.

Lai An chose to stay on the Blue Mother Planet, and the options he can make have been compressed to the limit.

You can't make bricks without straw , he actually doesn't have much confidence in getting a way out of the blue mother planet from Fiennes.

But had to try.

The guards stopped at the door of the familiar room. After the authorization was recognized, the automatic sensor door of the office opened.

"Please come in."

The moment he stepped into the office, Jiang Jianming's pupils shrank slightly, and his body trembled uncontrollably.Not out of fear, but...

crystal bone.

In this not-so-big office, there were four tall guards standing on both sides, with crystal bones as tall as a person released from behind.

And Fiennes sat behind the desk with a sneer, the moonlight cast from the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the golden robes of the nobles.

No one can guess that the person who will arrive will be a remnant crystal human being, but the rank suppression of the crystal bone is a shame to the new crystal human being, and it can cause continuous pain, which is more deterrent than pointing a gun at it.

"Your Excellency the Envoy."

Jiang Jianming's lips turned bluish white visible to the naked eye, and he said hoarsely: "I don't think there is a contradiction between us that needs to do this."

Severe pain pierced into every bone quietly. If it wasn't for the injection of tranquilizer, he would have fallen to the ground and vomited blood by this time.

"There's no need to act at night, young man."

Fiennes crossed his hands into a tower. Obviously, Jiang Jianming's weakness pleased the great nobleman.

He squinted his eyes to observe the performance of this "staff officer", and said with a grin, "You and I both know the current situation...I hope you are a smart person."

……it has started.

The moonlight swept over the brows of the black-haired young man who was enduring the pain. The game had already begun, and every word that followed was to survive in danger.

But he has no room for mistakes. If he is careless and Fiennes sees that he is planning something, then everything will be over.

Be careful, be careful.

"I don't think I'm stupid, sir."

Jiang Jianming took a step forward.Thanks to the stamina he endured through the chronic crystal disorder in those years, he can still speak normally, "Also, I do know the situation...perhaps more clearly than you expected."

"Not only do I know that at this moment, your subordinates can end my life at any time, but I also know that at this moment, all the artillery muzzles of the empire are also aimed at the Blue Mother Planet."

"I know that today, the Blue Mother Planet is a huge burden to the empire. It is like... the garbage that is transported to the wild area every year. The emperor wished he could burn us all to death earlier.It's just because of reputation and public opinion that I didn't make it to the ultimate step."

"Bold!!"

Fiennes shot up at the case, his face full of shock and anger: "How dare you speculate on the holy will and slander the benevolent and benevolent His Majesty the Emperor—"

In an instant, the eight sharp crystal bones of the guards stabbed at the black-haired young man in the center like a halberd.

Jiang Jianming slowly raised his face, his expression fearless.

Instead of retreating, he took two steps forward facing the crystal bone, "I know better that if the Great Migration fails due to the resistance of the Blue Mother Planet, the empire will immediately have an excuse to annihilate the Blue Mother Planet—"

A crystal bone pierced into that white porcelain neck, and a thin line of blood quietly flowed down and sank into the collar.

"My lord Fiennes, I am an aide of His Royal Highness Keos, and I am also a person from the Blue Mother Planet who grew up on the Blue Mother Planet."

Jiang Jianming didn't know it, and said in a deep voice: "I have no reason not to cooperate with you in terms of public and private interests, loyalty and righteousness."

"In fact, more than anyone else, I hope that the empire can complete the migration smoothly, and hope that there will be no rebellion on the blue mother planet. In this way, at least, my star city can be saved from the fate of being evaporated into ashes under artillery fire. Because there is still hope for life, deathBut it can only mean that everything is empty."

The sound echoed.The young man looked directly at the noble in front of him, then raised his eyebrows and bowed his head to point his chest.

"Your Excellency, please give me the opportunity to assist you in completing this migration task."

Fiennes stared at the young man in front of him in shock, his heart was shaken by Jiang Jianming's words.

In fact, he had thought about it before. This young staff member was a person that Keos valued. If he shivered, nodded and bowed after entering, and flattered the empire while his lord was under house arrest, it would probably be a conspiracy.

But the young man's rhetoric was really unexpected.

Smart, bold, and timely.It is indeed a bit capable, and it is worth cooperating with.Fiennes commented in his heart, adjusted his sitting posture, waved his hand, and asked the guard to put away the crystal bone.

"What you say had better be true, young man."

Fiennes said leisurely, "Say your name again."

"Dawn Aslan."

"Very well, I need Blue Mother Planet to organize the first batch of starships to take off within five days, and complete the entire migration project within three years, can you do it?"

"You can try, the premise is your trust."

"Hmph, trust is built after sincerity, let's talk about your suggestion first."

...

From this night, for five full days, Jiang Jianming—or Dawn Aslan was detained in the office of the mansion.

Fiennes still didn't let go of his suspicions completely, and forbade his staff to meet with his lord.Only twice a day, morning and evening, he was allowed to show his face by the window and look at Kaios for a few seconds to confirm his personal safety.

Even during this process, Fiennes sent his cronies to supervise, and Jiang Jianming was never allowed to speak or make any major moves.

He could only nod or smile at Lai An, trying to appease the increasingly agitated little Highness at the other end.

At the same time, he was negotiating with Fiennes almost day and night on the specific strategy of the Great Migration.Orders came out from the mansion one by one, and were executed after being issued layer by layer.

Time counts against every second, and the ten-day deadline is getting closer and closer.

"Lord Fiennes, first of all, we need to make this point clear: our goals are the same. First, to fulfill His Majesty's will as scheduled; second, to prevent the Blue Mother Planet from rebelling."

"Well, not bad."

"Then pardon me, the residents of Blue Mother Star City do not have full loyalty to the empire and the emperor. The relocation is bound to be blocked, and rebellion may break out at any time."

"Therefore, you need to work hard on the order of the migration. His Majesty the Emperor requested that the first batch of leaps be completed within ten days, but he didn't say what was moved."

Fiennes frowned: "What do you mean?"

Jiang Jianming smiled, and said in a gentle voice: "What we have to do is draw the bottom out, my lord."

"When the first fleet leaves, the supplies can be left alone. Please withdraw the troops, officials, and nobles you want to withdraw first. Especially the city guards must be withdrawn. This is very important."

"Without the army, first of all, the possibility of a large-scale riot breaking out on the Blue Mother Planet will be cut off. No matter how brave His Royal Highness Kaios is, it will be difficult to support alone."

"Furthermore, the city guards are paid by the empire after all, so it is their wish to go to a better Star City, and the poor of the Blue Mother Planet have always hated the officers and soldiers, so there will be no obstacles to their evacuation."

"It must be done absolutely, and of course all the weapons must be unloaded. Mechas and firearms can be left behind a little bit. These things have high requirements for operation, and it is impossible for civilians to learn them in a short time. But the starship should be controlled by the city guards.Drive all away, or it will be bad if another group of space pirates emerge..."

...

Military starship port.

The sky was overcast gray, with a storm coming between the thick clouds.The two officers stood in front of the steel starship, looking up at the gangway from a distance, with the city guards lined up behind them.

An imperial soldier trotted over, stood still and saluted: "Commander, the count is complete!"

Chen Hanke took off his military cap, exhaled, and nodded: "Okay, let's get into the ship, or it's going to rain soon."

The officer beside him looked a bit ugly, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Chen, are we really going to leave like this?"

Chen glanced at him: "Otherwise, what's the matter, you want to rebel? Now, here?"

The officer was shocked and quickly covered his mouth: "You! Shhh, you're going to kill me."

Chen Hanke patted his comrade-in-arms on the shoulder vigorously: "What are you afraid of, Luther. Hehe, I said earlier, you just lack the courage..."

Luther: "But, what about His Royal Highness?"

Chen shook his head: "Your Highness still needs to worry about you? Let's go. What will happen in the future is still uncertain."

...

"In addition, after the Great Migration, the people at the bottom will inevitably riot, and the nobles will inevitably shed blood if they stay. If you have people you want to take care of, please be sure to let them leave first."

"Ok……"

Fiennes frowned, squinting at the young man beside him, trying to find any suspicious marks on that pale face.

But Jiang Jianming just tapped on the virtual keyboard seriously, showing the deduction data obtained without reservation.

So Fiennes had to admit: "Yes, it is indeed a good strategy, just do as you said. Well, besides..."

The noble envoy cleared his throat pretentiously, and the flesh on both sides of his cheeks trembled, "Ahem, I will leave with the first batch of starships and perform my duties as an inspector along the way."

Nonsense, the city guards have all withdrawn, and the bloodshed is unavoidable, of course he can't stay in this place of right and wrong.

Fiennes thought about it, and said: "Of course, I will continue to monitor the situation of the Blue Mother Planet, and I will lead the second batch of starships back soon. You'd better not think about it."

Jiang Jianming lowered his eyebrows: "Actually, you can stay, and I will try my best to ensure your safety. Many things are much easier to handle when you are here."

Fiennes was furious, and clapped his hands on the table: "Don't you understand, I am an envoy following the orders of His Majesty the Holy Emperor, and I have the duty of inspector!"

"……Ok, I see."

...

Compared with the purged military port, the civilian starship port in Blue Mother Star City is a completely different scene.

The news of the relocation couldn't be suppressed, and the sight of the "elites" boarding the ship one after another couldn't be concealed.

A large number of residents of Blue Mother Planet rushed out of their homes under the shock.They flocked to the nearest urban area, blocking the starship port, and their desperate cries shattered the sky.

"Please, take my child, he is still so young, he is so smart..."

"Mom, woo woo woo, I want to be with my mother!"

"I have relatives in Eternal Paradise! Really, I have relatives who are nobles, let me go up, let me go up!!"

"Okay, if you don't take me away, you don't even think about leaving—"

The dark clouds in the sky squeezed away the only remaining light, and the raindrops all over the sky were like thousands of sharp needles, falling with thunder.

rumbling...

The thunder drowned out the shouts of the people.

Oncoming was the armored army armed with guns and live ammunition. Heavy machine guns fired at the unarmed civilians. In an instant, red mist splashed everywhere and screams everywhere.

Some new humans directly showed their crystal bones and rushed towards the army, while disabled humans would rather crash into the electric net pulled up in front of the starship port.The blood-stained arms stretched out to the sky before dying, and finally slumped down and smashed into the muddy water.

And just a few hundred meters away, the lady is holding the hem of her skirt, the gentleman is leaning on a cane, and the waiter is hurriedly carrying large boxes and small bags, and the portable rainproof screen on his body opens up a virtual umbrella for them.

They are hurrying to board the ship.

Outside the starship port, the sound of continuous shooting was accompanied by miserable crying.These pampered and superior people couldn't bear to listen, and they all looked sideways.

"Oh my god, it's too miserable."

"Oh, what innocent people."

A woman put on sound-proof headphones for her son, and wiped the corners of his delicately made-up eyes with a veil: "It's so pitiful, so pitiful...May the Lord save those suffering souls, Amen."

Then she picked up the child, weeping, and stepped into the starship without looking back.

Half an hour later, the news of Starship Harbor finally reached the mansion.Prince Keos was furious, and the crystal bones smashed most of the mansion, demanding that Fiennes immediately stop the massacre of civilians by the imperial soldiers everywhere.

Fiennes refused to withdraw his troops on the grounds that the civilians were obstructing the empire's plans, claiming that unless the prince had a way to dissuade the rioting crowd.

——Thus, that became the moment when the future Emperor Kaios engraved his voice in history for the first time.

... Contrary to Commander Aslan, the emperor's "lazy speech" is almost universally recognized.

Some people analyzed that the emperor was a bit of "big new humanism". Rather than encouraging the people to fight the enemy with one heart, he preferred to rush up and overthrow the enemy, and let the people applaud behind him;The character is too arrogant... Bah, proud, some words can't be said naturally; some people even complained, it is clear that the commander-in-chief is too conniving, which spoils His Majesty.

But no matter how you analyze it, future generations have to admit that Kaios didn't need much eloquence.

His existence itself carries a willful, unruly, and unreasonable aura, which is enough to generate unparalleled centripetal force.

Just like this rainy night, the prince used to speak to the whole city through the communicator for two minutes, but in such chaos and despair, only a few words were really recorded.

"What are you doing staring at those runaway wretches? I'm still here."

The boy's voice was cold, not gentle, but very firm: "Blue Mother Star is my star city, you are here, I am here; you are not here, I am still here."

Gradually, the shooting sound became quieter.And the louder the rain, the rivers of blood were washed far away outside the civilian starship port in the city.

Finally, the tenth day was also the last day of the deadline.

The starship full of superiors began to leave the land and headed for the distant sky.

When the people of Blue Mother Planet looked up and saw the blue starship wake, they immediately realized everything.

After all, the human migration was carried out as scheduled. They were abandoned here by the rulers of the empire. No one or any force can stop this disaster.

Even with His Royal Highness Keos' promise of "I'm here", there are still a large number of civilians who collapsed when looking up at the starship.

They ran and chased in vain, waving their arms and wailing, their wailing shaking the clouds.

It was also this night that Jiang Jianming walked out of the mansion.

……it's over.

The black-haired youth was drenched in the rain.

In the past five days, he had spent all his energy and physical strength in dealing with Fiennes, and now he looked like a paper man who could be torn apart.

And the final guarantee is too limited.After all, the starship left, and many of His Highness' confidantes were also taken away.what's next?next...

Jiang Jianming has no strength to think.

He felt cold and suffocated, and the rain was pouring down like a planet weeping, and the sound of the rain drowned him, and so did the distant cries.

Jiang Jianming closed his eyes and let out a breath, then swayed suddenly, and fell to his knees, his knees splashing water.

He raised his head with difficulty, opened his eyes, and stared blankly at the departing starship in the sky, feeling as if he was about to drown in this sea of rain.

The blue trail was like the only remaining oxygen, pulling away from this decadent land, getting farther and farther away from him, farther and farther away.

...Obviously ten days ago, he was still planning this Star City with His Royal Highness.

If the Blue Mother Planet was given more time, everything would not be so passive at all.Why is it always too late, why is it always out of reach.

Consciousness gradually blurred, the sound of rain became distant and near, Jiang Jianming suspected that he was about to pass out.

Because of this, he thought it was an auditory hallucination when the sound of rushing water came from behind him—until the clothes suddenly covered the top of his head to keep out the cold rain.

"Aslan!!"

"Aslan, wake up, look at me!!"

In the rainstorm, the boy's call was loud.

"ginger!!!"

Lai An gasped heavily, his chest filled with maddened anger and killing intent.

Jiang Jianming collapsed completely limp in his arms, as cold as a corpse.The black eyes were half-opened, chasing the wake of the starship lazily, softly saying something like "It's so far away".

The raindrops wet the black hair and the blond hair together, Lai An embraced the limp body of the disabled human being, feeling that there was a fleeting pile of water foam in his arms.

The boy's breath trembled with anger, he heard the sound of his sanity being overwhelmed, and for the first time, he had a real desire for destruction.

This rotten empire, this thick rainy night...!

If he could destroy it with his own hands, wouldn't Jiang be sad anymore?

Suddenly, the desire to destroy took off like a wild wind and fire.

Lai An violently pulled Jiang Jianming up.The strength of the boy's arm is so powerful, it can easily support the weight of a disabled human being.

"—get up! stand up!"

"What are you looking at... don't look at them, look at me!"

"Where do you want to go?" Lai An hugged Jiang Jianming tightly, put his cheek against his cheek, gritted his teeth, "tell me where you want to go, I'll take you there, I can take you there!"

"..."

Jiang Jianming opened his eyes.The handicapped man gasped, raindrops kept falling from his cheeks.

Facing the onslaught of the violent storm, the young prince's emerald eyes sparkled, and he yelled at the man in his arms, "I'll take you to a place farther than those starships!!"

Jiang Jianming felt that he must have wanted to say something at that time.

No one in the world can face such a scene indifferently, and he is no exception.

Or at the very least, he should also stabilize the little highness who was out of control, and clarify that he was not tortured to death by Fiennes or had a mental breakdown from the blow, but just a little tired.

But Jiang Jianming couldn't say a word.

He passed out in Lai An's arms.
