Chapter 63 Night Sky Sensation

Above the rain clouds that were thick and dark as ink, a lead-gray flying warship painted with a beautiful halo of light refracted by the faint moonlight, dragging a clearly visible smoke trail, flying steadily towards the southwest.

The golden nameplate on the bow of the ship was engraved with the name "Scout Orlean".

On an open-air cannon position on the port side of this first-class patrol ship of the Ulster Free Federation, Lieutenant Lebold, wearing a gray gendarmerie uniform, leaned against the railing, blew cold wind, held a cylindrical object in his mouth, and a stream of blue smoke spewed out from his nostrils from time to time...

Standing at the entrance of the cabin passage and looking at Lieutenant Lebold's back, Weiss was very confused: The baby-faced guy does his own thing, and it is understandable to smoke such a suspected drug. Unexpectedly, a military police officer also smokes! Is it not prohibited to smoke this thing in the Free Federation Army? Or in this world, ordinary people cannot access such things. As the baby-faced guy said, "it is the exclusive product of the upper class", so no one promotes anti-drug legislation?

Hearing Weiss' footsteps, Lieutenant Lebold turned his head and looked at it, and asked as if nothing had happened: "Come on two?"

This action and tone are really similar to the baby-faced guy!

Weiss did not refuse, but when he took the thing from the lieutenant, he did not suck it, but placed it in front of him to look carefully. Judging from the form and function, it seemed to be similar to the giant (marijuana) on the earth, but because Weiss had never been exposed to real marijuana, he could only speculate but could not make a conclusion.

“Is this thing addictive?”

"Addicted?" replied the lieutenant, "How do you say it? Some people have to smoke it a few times a day, and some people have to smoke it once a week or even a month. I think that 'Laguna' is not addictive in physiology, but if you are obsessed with its taste and rely on its function, it is a spiritual addiction!"

Weiss quietly observed Lieutenant Lebold's expression and language logic while speaking. After drawing this thing, he had no obvious abnormalities, and was even more calmer than usual - or indifferent.

The lieutenant continued: "The officers brought 'Laguna' with them. The original intention was to keep themselves calm at critical moments. Later, not only officers, but also men in the upper class regarded it as a tool to increase their personal charm. Later, some irritable ladies found that it could keep themselves elegant all the time, so it became a necessity in the upper class."

Weiss nodded and returned it to Lieutenant Lebold: "I understand!"

Seeing that Weis did not suck, the lieutenant did not ask, then took another sip, twisted it out, and put it into a small container like a pen holder.

The reason why they were on this high-speed first-class patrol ship was that Major Brooks felt it was necessary to go to the Monamolin Mountains to explore the relics of the Battle of Snow, and find strong evidence that could further confirm Weis' confession. Lieutenant Lebold, as the commander of the military police force stationed in the Baston Military Academy, must ensure that this "important person with major suspicion" is always under his strict supervision. After consultation with Major Brooks, he personally brought four military policemen to follow him throughout the journey.

For Weiss, the environment on this flying warship is naturally much better than that humid and cold "dark room". Moreover, Brooks assured him that as long as the trip achieves his goal, he will not only be acquitted, but will also coordinate with the military police headquarters and the Baston Military Academy to make their announcements clear the name so that he can continue his military career.

"Hey, gentlemen, so you're here! Look, who is this?"

Hearing Major Brooks' voice coming from behind, Weiss and Lieutenant Lebold both turned around, and then saw a scene that surprised them: next to the major was a guy wrapped in a thick leather jacket, and his baby face, who else could there be except Nicholas Lebold?

But, how could this guy be on the flying warship? Could it be that he sneaked up?

"What's going on?" Lieutenant Lebold spread his hands and stared, seemingly unaware of it.

The baby-faced guy looked at his cousin proudly: "I have to say that your alert is too relaxed, and I easily got in!"

"Hey, Nikola, it's time to joke that there are still occasions... Sorry, Major, can you land nearby? I'll send him back to the military academy!"

"I am not your prisoner, why should I obey your command?" the baby-faced guy shouted, "I have asked the military academy to approve my special leave for a week. Look, the principal has signed the letter. This week, I will go wherever I like. If it is not enough, I can postpone it!"

The lieutenant did not look at the paper his cousin took out from his pocket, but instead scolded him bluntly: "Listen, Nicholas, don't think the principal is your godfather, you can do whatever you want! Although you are still a military academy student, you must always demand yourself as the standards of a professional soldier!"

Weis, who was standing beside him, wanted to cover his face. This background and relationship, how could he get along with an ordinary student like himself?

"I have no means to use it! The principal has agreed to me long ago that as long as my academic performance improves, I will agree to any request besides transfer." The baby-faced guy defended him. Then he turned to Major Brooks and begged as if he was a spoiled: "Dear Major, please let me stay on the warship for a few days for my father's sake! You also know that I have dreamed of becoming a commander of a flight warship since I was a child, but my father refused to say anything and only reluctantly agreed to me to enter the Army's Baston Military Academy. Look, this is really a vacation slip signed by Principal Fanluo. In the past few days, I can be your assistant and do all kinds of chores!"

Major Brooks was like a bystander watching the fun from the beginning, and now he laughed even more: "Come on, how dare I do you do chores for me? Since you got it by your ability, I will sign you a round-trip passenger ticket, but I agreed that during the ship, don't cause trouble for me!"

The baby-faced guy quickly stood attentively to the major and saluted: "Abide by the order!"

The major saluted and said, "But... the cabins on the ship are limited, and this time there are 7 additional people. It is really difficult to make a single room. Now, I still have an empty shop there, but I know you definitely don't want it. I originally arranged for a Lieutenant and Mr. Klumber Heisen to let one of them go to me, and you live with one of them. Look..."

Weiss and the lieutenant's lodge was a narrow cabin standing with not enough arms spreading. The two of them slept on the upper and lower bunks - Weiss was on the upper and lower bunks, and the bed was just one person wide, but considering the limited tonnage of the flying warship, it was good to have such conditions.

In Weiss's opinion, this was a very relaxed multiple-choice question. Unexpectedly, the baby-faced guy hesitated. Then he thought, this guy's father is the president, and the conditions at home are definitely not ordinary. I guess he has never competed with others since he was a child, so he enjoyed the special treatment of living alone in the military academy.

Major Brooks seemed not surprised at all. He turned around and said, "Okay, think about it slowly, and after thinking about it, I will go back to the cabin first."

Now, Lieutenant Lebord, the cousin of the baby-faced boy, was a little gloating: "Look! I've caused trouble! How to solve it now?"

The baby-faced guy glared at his cousin: "Cousin Weisther, you can squeeze in with the major!"

The lieutenant seemed a little reluctant. He put one hand on his hips and scratched his head with the other, and then looked at Weiss, who looked innocent with a strange expression: "Will you grind your teeth, snore, and sleepwalking at night?"

"Are you not worried that I will run away with the hostage?" Weiss joked.

The lieutenant snorted coldly: "Come on! Didn't I say it in the morning? I don't believe that someone can make up such a story out of thin air, and Major Brooks has confirmed that what you said is true."

"Okay!" Weiss said, "I don't grind my teeth at night, snore, sleepwalking, okay?"

The lieutenant did not answer, but turned to Nicholas: "Are you sure?"

The baby-faced guy did not answer positively, but asked, "Why do I think the major is deliberately teasing me? Is it really impossible to even have a single room on this warship?"

The lieutenant shrugged and said, "I don't know, and I have no right to ask. If you have to think so, I think it's a small punishment he has given you when he can't drive you down!"

The baby-faced guy seemed a little disappointed and reluctant, but he finally made up his mind to ask the lieutenant to gather a room with the major.

The lieutenant waved his hand: "Okay, you go back to the cabin! Let me stay here for a while! I will keep my luggage first and pick it up tomorrow."

Before leaving, Weiske politely said "Good night" to the lieutenant.

The lieutenant seemed to be in a bad mood and just responded with a "hmm" from his nose.

What made Weiss feel strange was not only Lieutenant Lebold. On the way back to the cabin, the baby-faced guy who had always been talking nonstop did not say a word, as if he was still struggling with living in the same room with others.

When he walked to the cabin door, Weis turned sideways and made the baby-faced guy advanced. He originally planned to tease, "Why are you shy and like a big girl?" But when he thought that this guy was sometimes indifferent and sometimes very sensitive, he swallowed his words when he spoke, and said in a normal way:

"Hey, have you never lived with anyone since you were a child?"

Without outsiders, the baby-faced guy looked at the small cabin and replied casually: "No, when he was very young, he had lived with his parents in the same room as his sisters, but... he had lived alone since he was 9 years old."

"Sisters? How many sisters do you have?"

"Three sisters and one brother. What I told you, did you actually forget?"

"Oh, you told me?" Weiss deliberately pretended to be stupid.

"Well, I'm ten years apart from him. Do you think a teenage boy would be willing to coax his younger brother and sister to bed?"

"Basically not." Weiss replied.

"That's it!"

The baby-faced guy pointed to the upper bunk and said, "I'll sleep above, you'll sleep below."

Weiss said: "If you really mind, I can go to the boiler room to find a warm corner to make do with it for a night."

The baby-faced guy didn't respond to this bad proposal, but glanced at him: "Don't you ask me why I'm slipping up?"

"Is there any more to ask?" Weiss grinned, "Of course I'm worried about my safety!"

The young man rolled his eyes decisively: "You are not worried at all."

"I didn't do anything bad, I have a clear conscience, why should I worry?"

"Okay! Let me give you a popular science for this gentry and rich man who has no knowledge..." The young man paused and deliberately suppressed his voice very low:

"In the understanding of ordinary people, the Military Intelligence Department should be a department that is responsible for collecting intelligence. In fact, intelligence is only part of all their work. Their authority also includes investigating and searching the enemy's intelligence personnel lurking in the federal territory and their bribery spies, finding and cleaning up our mutants, and making necessary defenses against the enemy's non-war attack methods. In terms of administrative structure, the Military Intelligence Department is directly affiliated with the Supreme Military Commission of the Free Federation, and they have the right to call police, army and even military police. Look, the military police force comes in a car, while Major Brooks comes in a first-class patrol ship. That's the difference!"

The country boy from a small town in the southwestern border of the Free Federation could only listen and nod.

"During the day, I heard from my cousin that you were talking about. If the Military Intelligence Department did not intervene, I would have nothing to worry about, but when Major Brooks came, the situation would be different. He took you away to investigate and things would go smoothly. Maybe he would kill you on the spot with a disagreement halfway through the passage, and then I would have no friends at the Baston Military Academy!"

Kill on the spot if you have any disagreement!

Weiss seemed to have been hit by a thunderbolt. Unexpectedly, Major Brooks, who looked righteous, might have such a bad move on him?

"You know it's amazing now!" The baby-faced guy posed as a savior, "Fortunately, with me here, he will not act willful, you can sleep with peace of mind."

Weiss looked dark and told him about these sensational things before going to bed. It would be strange if he could sleep soundly!
