Mecha Hurricane

Chapter 17 Farewell

Three days later, Xia Yi received the assignment notice in the confinement room.

"Miller Colonial Star No. 22 Sub-base... Where is this place?" He didn't expect that he would go to such a far place. Xia Yi had no idea where Colonial Star No. 52 was.

The colony stars with later numbers are newly occupied planets, and their development level is very low. Some of them don't even have air, and are just mining bases.

Thinking that he had only finished basic training and was about to be sent to a colonial planet that he had no idea about, Xia Yiyi thought this was really interesting. And the departure date is tomorrow. It seems that the confinement does not need to continue.

She was about to leave on the second day, so today she was not kept in confinement, but let her go out to pack her things. Xia Yi had nothing to pack, so she took a military backpack and threw her military uniform and other things in. After thinking about it, she went to the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The military band of the Military Intelligence Bureau practiced in the sunroom on the rooftop of the Military Intelligence Department. Xia Yi stood at the door and waited, listening to the beautiful female soldiers inside playing military music, sometimes high-pitched and sometimes low. Only then did she realize that she didn't even know a military song, and that this soldier was really confused.

After a while, the playing inside stopped, and after another scolding from the instructor, the door was opened from the inside.

Xia Yi stood outside quietly, watching the beautiful female soldiers walking past him. The beauty of the military band was indeed beyond compare. Everyone who comes out of it has tender skin and tender flesh, and some are even more beautiful than famous celebrities. Yi Zi was the last one to come out. She lowered her head and didn't notice Xia Yi standing at the door. She walked directly in front of her with a heavy heart.

"Yi Zi." Xia Yi quickly called her.

Yi Zi raised her head in surprise, only to realize that Xia Yi had come here to look for her. She was stunned for a moment and then laughed, "Xia Yi, why are you here?"

"I'm here to see you. It's almost time for dinner. You should be able to go out, right?" It was already evening. Xia Yi looked out through the sunroom and saw that the sun was almost setting.

"You can go out. It's Sunday night and you don't have to go to the cafeteria to eat." Yi Zi said happily.

Xia Yi thought for a while and said: "There is a bar in Area A, it seems to be called... I can't remember the name, it's strange."

"Battlefield Bar, I've been there. It's open until 10:30 p.m., and the curfew is 11 o'clock. You can go back just in time. Although it's called a bar, it only provides low-alcohol drinks. Don't drink too much and affect tomorrow's training." Yi Zi said to Battlefield The bar seemed familiar. Xia Yicai said that she immediately knew where it was.

"Who wants to drink? We are going to eat. I'm treating you." Xia Yi patted the pocket on the right side of her belt and smiled. She was leaving Nada Star tomorrow, so she planned to be generous and treat Yi Zi to a treat. meal. Who knows where Colonial Star No. 52 is? It would be miserable if it was a place where birds don't poop and only eat war food.

Yi Zi smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll order something expensive."

"It's okay, I have 12,000 nada coins, you can eat whatever you want." Xia Yi said with a confident smile.

But when she was led by Yi Zi to the Battlefield Bar in Area A, and after looking at the prices on the electronic menu standing on the table, she didn't order anything for a while.

This is too dark, robbing people! Xia Yi cursed viciously. This is the headquarters. Everyone's personal accounts were stopped when they joined the army. The Nad coins they carry were all issued in the army. Logically speaking, the canteen is free, and the bar should only charge a nominal fee.

But the facts before her were completely different from what she thought. A bottle of Wolf beer costs 200, a glass of juice costs 50, and a fruit salad costs 800. The prices of staple food and snacks are even more astonishing. A portion of deviled black pepper steak costs 2,200. Even if the beef is the most famous frost beef, the price is too exaggerated.

Xia Yi raised his head and looked around. There were a lot of people sitting there. Although most of them were officers, there were also many non-commissioned officers. There are also a few scattered private soldiers. How can they afford the food here? There is not only free ice water on the table!

"Xia Yi, what do you want to eat?" Yi Zi waited for a long time, but didn't see Xia Yi's dish. She just kept flicking through the pictures on the menu. He could only look at the dishes but not order them, and he was looking around at other people's tables. He couldn't help but ask curiously.

"What do you want to eat? It seems that all the ladies from rich families like to eat steak. How about some deviled pepper steak?" At worst, just keep saving.

Yi Zi nodded, "Okay, just order it."

For Yi Zi, 2,200 for a steak is not expensive. Frost Snow Beef is the best beef in Nada Star. This price can only be eaten in the military.

Xia Yike had never eaten such good food before. At most, he had eaten cheap Moni beef, so he ordered one for himself. Salad and fried shrimp were also served, and two desserts were served. The names of the desserts were very complicated. She had always only regarded bread as dessert, but this time she was very happy. When ordering wine, Xia Yi hesitated. Should the steak be paired with champagne or red wine...

The price of red wine was beyond what anyone could drink. She glanced at the two officers at the table not far away with disdain. A campus military officer was having a meal with a beautiful captain-level officer. Xia Yi had already seen the price of the wine they ordered, which was 60,000 Nada dollars a bottle.

"Let's have some beer. I heard that people in the army drink Wolf beer, which makes them as ferocious and flexible as wolves and has team spirit. We are soldiers too, so we have to drink this kind of wine. Only sissies drink red wine. The things are not suitable for us." Xia Yi said to Yi Zi with a smile.

Yi Zi had no objection. Anyway, she drank enough on weekdays, so it didn’t matter if she had a different taste now. It doesn’t matter what you eat, what matters is who you eat with.

Xia Yi clicked on the dish he wanted on the electronic menu. Before Xia Yi could finish a glass of ice water, the dish he ordered was delivered.

The sizzling steak paired with pureed vegetables and other vegetables is really appetizing. After greeting him politely, Xia Yi took a knife and fork and started eating. He put a mouthful of beef into his mouth, and his mouth was filled with rich gravy and tender beef. It made her feel that the beef she had eaten before was simply wood residue, with nothing edible at all.

After taking a sip of beer and savoring the bite of beef, Xia Yi remembered what Edie said to him. It seems that it is okay to pursue material improvement without causing trouble.

"Xia Yi, you will have a vacation once every six months after joining the army. You can go out for 3 days. Do you want to come back to Nuotaicheng with me at the end of the month and come to my house to play?" After Yi Zi had almost eaten, she ordered a cup of coffee. Drinking slowly, he asked Xia Yi.

"Going to your house?" Xia Yi swallowed the last piece of steak, picked up the napkin embroidered with the military insignia and wiped his mouth. Under Yi Zi's expectant eyes, he said, "Next time, I'm going to Miller tomorrow. Colonial Star No. 52, I will definitely not be free this year. I don’t know how long I will stay. If I can’t be promoted to sergeant, I will only be able to come back in 3 years at most. Then I can come to your house to play.”

Yi Zi looked at her inexplicably, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses, "Miller Colony 52? Where is that?"

"I don't know. I guess it's far away from the number." Xia Yi didn't know how far it was, and he didn't even bother to check the star map on the star network.

"Wait while I look for it." Yi Zi looked nervously through the voice device and searched the star network, and soon got the result. Her hands clenched involuntarily, and her mouth was a little dry. "It's a 27-day flight from Nada Star. There will be a space jump in the middle. It is also a military mining area. Businessmen and citizens are not allowed to enter."

After hearing this, Xia Yi said disappointedly: "It's really a mining area, and I don't know if there is air. It seems that I have offended someone. They brought me to such a place. They didn't ask me to dig mines." Come on, don’t you become a miner?"

"Nowadays, robots are used for mining, and humans only need to control them from the base. Star 52 is too far away, and even video calls are not possible. I can only send you messages through the star network." Yi Zi is more intelligent than she is. I'm very disappointed. If I go to the mining area, it will be difficult to meet in person later. I can't really wait until I retire in three years before I can meet in person.

Yi Zi didn't want Xia Yi to retire. She was already sure that she would be promoted to an officer in the future. People in the military band would not have to go to the battlefield, and future promotions would be to warrant officers. If Xia Yi retired, there would be so many colonial stars and huge crowds of people, where else could he go to find this friend?

"Actually, it doesn't matter. If I stay here and am detained all day, I might as well go to the colonial star. By then, these people in the military department won't be able to control me. If I fight, I won't be detained." Xia Yixiao When I got up, I didn't feel angry at all because of the repeated changes in my assignments.

"As soon as you leave, I will be alone again." Yi Zi lowered her head a little lonely and stirred the coffee in her hand.

Xia Yi tapped the back of her hand with his fingers and raised his chin to let her look at the man and woman at the table next to him. Yi Zi turned her head curiously and looked sideways, but didn't find anything unusual. They were just ordinary lovers. She turned back in confusion, waiting for Xia Yi to explain what she was looking at with a blank look on her face.

"See the two people over there? After I leave, you find a powerful officer to be your boyfriend. Then he will be your thug. If someone bullies you, you let him go over and beat them up. Although there is no such thing in the army. There are a few people who are as handsome as me, but just make do with them, as long as they are half as good as me." Xia Yi lowered his head and whispered, feeling that he really had to worry about everything.

Yi Zi couldn't help but laugh. "Don't worry, I will definitely find someone who can beat people for me."

"Then don't worry all day long. Your family is so rich. Don't hold back when you are bullied in the military band. You are fully capable of bullying them back." Xia Yi said with a smile.

"I know." Yi Zi nodded in response. Although he didn't know if she heard it, Xia Yi still felt that she would be frowning all day long, and it must be mostly due to minor conflicts between women. That means you are prettier than me, your family is richer than mine, or you play musical instruments better than mine, etc. It is nothing. When she stays in the military for a long time, she will become more powerful.

Yi Zi had training on Monday and couldn't see Xia Yi off. When they parted, she hugged her very reluctantly and held her for a long time before letting go. Xia Yi also took advantage of this opportunity and touched her hard several times without being noticed by Yi Zi at all.
