The plane undulated slightly in the airflow, and Luo Ji felt like he was in a cradle while lying on the bed. He imagined the unchanging night above the clouds outside, and struggled to organize his thoughts.

Recalling the past between him and the woman he had known for a short time, and the woman Bai Rong who had left a place in his heart, his heart was once completely occupied by golden love. It was an incredible experience.

…

Shi Qiang lit another cigarette and handed one to Li Yang. After they lit the cigarette, Shi Qiang asked Li Yang, "What do you think? Do you have any good ideas?"

Li Yang blew out a smoke ring and said: "Me? I will do whatever I can to maximize the win for mankind. This is my method, and it will be done at all costs."

"But you know that there is only one sophon in the three-body system..."

"Yes, I know, but we can't retreat before the Trisolarans arrive. Let's try, maybe they will help us." After Li Yang put out the cigarette he had finished smoking, he put it in

In the ashtray on the side.

Looking at the confident Li Yang, Shi Qiang couldn't help but want to hit him, "How is it possible that someone who wants to invade Blue Star will still help us? You haven't even had a meeting yet, so why are you starting to daydream?"

"Haha, Da Shi, look." Li Yang smiled and pointed out the window of the plane and said to Da Shi, "There are many stars in the sky outside the porthole, and the sky is very dark now. I wonder if you are afraid of the dark."

"What's the point? Who is afraid of this?" Shi Qiang looked in the direction Li Yang pointed, and then looked at Li Yang.

"Yeah, you're not afraid, but I'm afraid, and so are they!"

"Huh? Are you playing riddles?" Da Shi was completely confused after listening to Li Yang's words. He felt like Li Yang was playing tricks on him.

"Haha, let's not talk anymore. I think you will know in the future. I'll take a nap first, and you should take a nap too. It will still be a few hours before the plane arrives." After saying that, Li Yang covered himself with a blanket.

Entered dreamland.

"This kid is quite interesting." Seeing that Li Yang was about to go to bed, Shi Qiang walked out of Li Yang's room and planned to go see Luo Ji over there.

At this moment, Shi Qiang seemed to hear some noise coming from Luo Ji's room and hurried to where he was.

Luo Ji, who had just woken up from a nightmare, reached for the medicine bottle on the bedside, trying to take a sleeping pill to force himself to sleep. The moment before his fingers touched the medicine bottle, the medicine bottle flew up from the bedside table and flew up at the same time.

Also included were the clothes Luo Ji threw on the chair. They went up to the ceiling, stayed there for two seconds and then fell back down.

Luo Ji felt that his body had also left the bed, but because the sleeping bag was fixed, it did not fly up. After the medicine bottle and clothes fell, Luo Ji also felt that he fell heavily back to the bed. For a few seconds, his body

Feeling like being pressed down by a heavy object and unable to move.

The sudden weightlessness and overweight made him dizzy, but this phenomenon lasted for less than ten seconds, and everything soon returned to normal.

Luo Ji heard the rustle of footsteps on the carpet outside the door. Several people were walking around. The door opened and Shi Qiang poked his head in:

"Luo Ji, are you okay?" After hearing Luo Ji's reply that he was okay, he did not come in and closed the door. Luo Ji heard the low conversation outside the door: "It seems there was a misunderstanding during the escort handover. It's okay.

.”

"What did the superior say when he called just now?" This was Shi Qiang's voice.

"They say the escort formation will be refueled in the air in an hour and a half, so let's not panic."

"Isn't this something mentioned in the plan?"

"Hey, don't mention it. Just because of the bump, the seven escorting fighter jets threw away the auxiliary fuel tanks."

"They must have been too shocked. Forget it, you guys go and get some sleep. Don't be too nervous. By the way, is Li Yang okay?"

"Don't worry, it's okay. I just came over there. We can't sleep in this state."

"Just leave one person to guard you. It's useless to waste everything like this. No matter what the above said, I have my own opinion on the task of protecting these two people: as long as you think of what you need to think about and do what you need to do, the whole process will be

If something happens again, there's nothing we can do about it, right? Don't make it difficult for yourself."

…

Li Yang here and Luo Ji over there both heard the conversation between Shi Qiang and his assistant, and also saw the additional escort fighters outside the porthole.

Li Yang went to sleep again, while Luo Ji's bedroom door was pushed open by Da Shi. Shi Qiang leaned half in and said to Luo Ji: "Brother Luo, don't worry about this little problem. We'll deal with it later."

No problem, just go back to sleep."

"Do you still have time to sleep? How long has it been?"

"It will take a few more hours, you should go to sleep." After saying this, Shi Qiang closed the door and left.

Luo Ji got out of bed, picked up the bottle, and took the only pill inside. He looked at the small lights of the plane outside the window and gradually fell asleep.

When Shi Qiang sent someone to wake up Li Yang and Luo Ji, they had already slept for more than six hours.

"We're almost there, get up and get ready."

Li Yang was the first to get up and went to the bathroom to wash up, followed by Luo Ji. After they finished washing up and went to the office area to have breakfast, they felt the plane begin to descend. More than ten minutes later, the special plane that had been flying for fifteen hours

Landed smoothly.

For the safety of Li Yang and Luo Ji, Shi Qiang asked them to wait in the office and went out first. Soon, he brought someone in, a tall senior official with a European appearance.

"Are they Dr. Luo Ji and Mr. Li Yang?" The official looked at Li Yang and Luo Ji and asked carefully, because he felt that neither of them spoke English very well (actually it was Li Yang and the others who didn't want to speak English), so he used a more blunt Chinese.

Asked again.

"He is Luo Ji, and he is Li Yang." Da Shi replied, and then briefly introduced them: "This is Mr. Kanter, here to greet you."

"It's an honor." Kanter said with a slight bow to Luo Ji and Li Yang.

When shaking hands, Li Yang felt that this man was very mature. Kanter seemed to hide everything in politeness, but there was still something vaguely revealed in his eyes. Li Yang saw the way Luo Ji looked at Kanter.

A little confused, Luo Ji felt like he was looking at a devil or an angel... After that, Li Yang and Luo Ji looked at each other naturally.

Kanter said to Shi Qiang: "You did a good job. Your session was the simplest. Others had some troubles in the process of coming."

"We are following the instructions from our superiors and have always followed the principle of minimizing links." Shi Qiang replied.

"This is absolutely correct. Under the current conditions, reducing links is the greatest safety. We will also follow this principle in the future and we will go directly to the venue."

"When does the meeting start?"

"after an hour."

"Time is so tight?"

"The meeting time is temporarily arranged based on the arrival time of the final candidate."

"This is better. So, can we hand over?"

"No, this person's safety is still your responsibility. I said, you are the best at it."

Shi Qiang was silent for two seconds, looked at Luo Ji, nodded and said, "When we came here two days ago to familiarize ourselves with the situation, our personnel encountered a lot of trouble in their operations."

"I promise this will never happen again. The local police and military will fully cooperate with you."

"Then," Kanter looked at the two of them and said, "we can go."
