Black Sky

Chapter 35 Time difference

“Three months…what’s the matter?” Carlos Black lifted his neck hard, wanting to see the expression of Truss asking this question. After all, expression capture and interpretation are the most useful reference in negotiations.

However, he only saw the back of Sae Young’s head, so he fell back in anger.

Truth was silent for a second: “You didn’t count the wrong days? How exactly did you get the news?”

Although Carlos Black did not understand why this sentence caused Truss to react so strangely, he immediately seized the opportunity sensitively and started a dying struggle again: “I refuse to be paralyzed here and say, at least it has to be changed. Indoors, you have to sit! Otherwise, don’t try to pry a word out of my mouth!”

His stubbornness made Chu Si ponder for a moment, and then he nodded happily, “OK, indoors, sit and talk, sir wait a moment.”

Chief Chu spoke very politely when facing non-acquaintances. But his politeness is very special, probably because the experience of “saying thank you after stepping on his face” had an irreversible impact on his life, so that when he was extremely polite, it was often when he was going to do bad things.

The people he worked with in the safety building knew this problem very well, the people he had trained in the training camp knew it very well, and Sae Young knew it very well, but Carlos was unprepared.

“Hey… finally there is someone who respects the old and loves the young and is reasonable.” Carlos sighed as he squinted at the back of Sae Young, “Maybe we can cooperate sincerely if we did this a long time ago.”

Ten minutes later, under an instruction from Chief Chu, the Rangers headed by Carlos Black were all forked into the dump by the five-member training camp, just like dead fish caught in a net.

The tipping bucket was built on Carlos’s aircraft. It was visually older than Truth and Sae Young combined. When they tremblingly stick out from behind the aircraft’s ass, they can even hear a creak.

That was what Carlos occasionally used to salvage “garbage” in space. At this time, there were 137 wanderers, and he, the once noble king of wanderers, was crushed at the bottom.

What a **** treatment of prisoners of war.

The 137 prisoners of war were finally settled in the East Tower of Fort Barney where they could come and go freely at Le Pen. In the conference room on the top floor, the aircraft that brought them up temporarily landed on the platform extending out of the French windows.

Almost all the strapping and electronic shackles loaded in the equipment room of the aircraft were used on them-left hand and right foot handcuffed, right hand handcuffed left foot, sitting around the wall and floor.

And Chus leaned against the huge oblong conference table with his hands propped on the edges, looking at Carlos Black with grace and condescension.

Indoors, sitting and talking, nothing wrong.

“As you wish.” Chus tapped his fingers on the table twice, and said to Carlos: “How many more requirements do you have? Don’t hesitate to mention it.”

Carlos Black’s lips squirmed silently twice, probably cursing “a beast” or something, and then cleared his throat with a green face: “Nothing.”

Saer Young sat boredly at the table, arching his elbows to Chus, “Ten minutes, sir, in just ten minutes, you will be reduced to a beast like me, gratifying.”

Chus glanced at him, then looked back at Carlos and said, “I really didn’t ask for it?”

Carlos snorted, “Nonsense.”

Truss nodded, “Then tell me, when and where did you get the news. Tell me about the shackles that I unlocked a person.”

Carlos originally wanted to say something with a sarcasm on his face. After hearing his condition, he barely accepted the ridicule, and said: “You think there is something just now to pave the way, I will still believe your nonsense?”

Truth shrugged his shoulders. “Whatever.”

Carlos took a bite of blood.

He really had nothing to do with Chus, even if his words were nothing, he would only have to vomit two more tubes of blood. It really just loves to believe it or not.

Carlos thought for a while, then opened his mouth: “I am unlucky when I run into your two plague gods, I admit it. Just talk about it…”

“I got the news from them when I passed by the edge of the alpha star area three months ago and traded with another team of Rangers. I said that they circumvented the second line of your Skyhawk gamma star area before. At the time, they accidentally crossed the star field line, but did not receive a warning of crossing the line. At that time, I was a little puzzled, but because they were in a hurry to go to Kamai Star and Silver City, they didn’t think about it. When the star area where the city is located rushed to the alpha star area to do business with us, they circled your planet again, and deliberately crossed the star field line, but still did not receive the due warning, so they played a trick. Just go straight to the inner line of the star field, and when they are close enough to the surface of the planet, they discovered that your Skyhawk γ star is actually just a residual phantom, the real planet no longer exists.

“Next—” Carlos Black pointed at himself awkwardly, “They sold me the news by the way. I estimated the time, your planet exploded three and a half months ago, because according to I know that just four months ago, the Wanderers team landed on your planet. It is said that they sold a message to your military department? At least your planet hadn’t exploded when they landed.”

“Military Department?” It is reasonable to say that there are Wanderers who enter the Star Territory to make private transactions with the government or the military. The Military Department should have greeted the Security Building, but the fifth office where Truth is located does not directly control this On the one hand, it is Office No. 1 that controls these, so it is normal for Truth to be unaware.

“The news I heard is like this. As for whether it is the military department or not, I don’t know. I can only guarantee that my information is 80% accurate, not 100%.” ​​Carlos Black said.

Truss stared into Carlos’s eyes for a long time, and then simply bent over and rummaged over Carlos.

“What are you doing?” Carlos gave way backwards, “What are you looking for? The aircraft was **** by you, so what else do you want to turn over?!”

Chu Si said: “Pocket watches, watches, or anything else with time.”

When he said this, his tone revealed obvious impatience, and Carlos was a little frustrated when he heard it, and he quickly said: “Watch! Watch! Watch! Isn’t it the watch! It’s in my pants pocket.”

Chus frowned, and knocked him over without a word, and reached out and touched it casually in his left trouser pocket. It was empty.

When he was about to change to the right pocket, Sae Young suddenly got off the table, bent over and “slapped” Chus’s hand, took out the contents of Carlos’s right pocket, and threw it back. On the table.

Damn–

The metal object rolled around on the table, and finally lay flat.

Truss froze for a moment, glanced at Sae Young, and saw that he said that when he turned his face, he looked a little impatient, probably because the dialogue between Trus and Carlos was not very relevant to him, and it was not very possible. It aroused his interest, and it was a bit annoying to listen for a long time.

However, this kind of appearance of smiling at the last second and frowning in the next second was seen by Truss a lot, and he didn’t care too much.

He stood up straight, grabbed the things on the table, and opened the lid.

The style of this thing is very retro, much like a pocket watch in the early days-a half-slap-sized disc with a flap and a chain.

Only after the flip is opened, the display inside is not a pointer, but a screen. In the circular screen is a simplified version of the star map, with eighteen dots representing habitable planets embedded in different positions on the screen. There is a square display box in the upper left corner of the screen, marking the current time, but the calculation method is not the same as that used by Truss.

Truth clicked on the dot representing the Skyhawk γ star, and in the display box in the upper left corner, the time was instantly converted into the format Truth was most familiar with:

New Gregorian Calendar 5714

March 17 22:09:23

He stared at the number representing the year and looked at it silently for a while, confirming that he had not misread any of them, and then raised his eyes.

The flap closed in his hand with a click, he squeezed the dial in his hand and turned it twice, after thinking for a while, he threw it back to Carlos.

Carlos was also a little surprised: “You didn’t actually own it directly?”

“What’s the use of I want it?” Chus’s frowning brows didn’t loosen, and his attention was obviously not on Carlos, so he just replied casually.

There is a problem with time.

Truth thought to himself, he walked a few steps back and forth, then strode the meteor to the door of the meeting room, crossed the circular railing, and glanced at the few people on the bottom floor of the East Tower who were busy handling the aircraft. Jin, who walks in an awkward posture, is particularly conspicuous inside.

Truss stared at him for a few seconds, and finally fell on Tang, saying: “Tang, come up.”

Tang Yi was taken aback, raised his head and shouted: “Oh! Come!”

After a while, Tang Feng came up violently, stopped in front of the door of the conference room, glanced inwardly, and asked Chus in a low voice, “What’s the matter with the sir? They are not honest and not cooperating?”

Chu Si shook his head and said, “Where’s your communicator? I just remembered it suddenly, I seem to have forgotten to ask you the time.”

Tang fumbled out the communicator, gave Chus a glance, it showed:

New Gregorian Calendar 5714

March 6th 14:21:38

The display is not exactly the same as the Carlos pocket watch, but the difference is not much, completely within the normal time flow rate difference range.

In fact, Chu Si could guess the result without looking at Tang’s communicator, he just…checked it over and over again, like an obsessive-compulsive disorder.

The time difference between Tang and Carlos was ten days, and Sae Young, who passed by the black hole, was only a few dozen days away from them. There was also a space prison…

Everyone’s time difference is within the normal range, very close, except for himself.

In 5714 and 5763, although Truth didn’t want to admit it, it seems that the former is right and the latter is obviously wrong.

When I opened my eyes, it was Jin that told him that 50 years had passed.

Of course, the first thing that Truth thought of was that King had tampered with the time display on the bracelet for some purpose, making him mistakenly believe that 50 years have passed. But soon, this idea was denied again, because after Chu Si crawled out of the frozen capsule, he received a message from Sae Young, and his own communicator clearly showed the time when the message was received. Nijo clearly shows the year 5763.

For a moment, Truth suddenly felt a sense of loss in his heart.

After all, the view of time has been broken up and reorganized, and then broken up again is not a pleasant experience. He feels that his headache is almost about to commit again——

The time of everyone else is generally unified. According to their time view, it is now 5714, less than 4 months after the explosion of the planet.

There was a huge chaos in his time, and he directly fast forwarded 50 years.

Where did you become passive? Who did it? What is the purpose?

“What’s the matter, sir?” Tang blinked, “Your complexion becomes a bit bad.”

“Nothing.” When Chu Si spoke again, his face had returned to normal, and he waved his hand at Tang, “Nothing, go ahead.”

Tang said “Oh”, and as soon as he turned to leave, Chu Si patted him again and added in a low voice, “Help me… stare at Jin.”

“Huh?” Tang was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly realized. After making an OK gesture, he hurriedly went downstairs. He took two steps to think about it and then turned his head and said, “You haven’t been relieved by him, do you? Put him out of the edge for everything.”

Truth raised his eyebrows and closed the door of the conference room, and almost hit someone as soon as he turned around.

Mr. Sae Young, who turned his face faster than a book, was standing in front of him.

Chu Si said in a huff: “Excuse me, walk a little more quietly, what are you doing here?”

Saer Young leaned closer, his nearly transparent eyes squinted slightly, and he stared at Chuss eyes for two seconds, and said solemnly, “Someone made our chief unhappy. Let me guess what. What’s going on?”

Truth’s back tensed subconsciously, and then suddenly relaxed, “Guess? Didn’t you just come to eavesdrop?”

He was silent for two seconds after speaking, then added: “Or maybe you don’t need to overhear at all, you’ve seen it a long time ago, but for some reason, you have no intention to say anything, do you?”
