"It was our fault that the car you borrowed broke down. There is no way to repair it without parts on Mars, right? So we decided to just make do with it, so you have promised to pay you a new car. And the new car has indeed been shipped, but the transportation has been a bit chaotic recently, and we don’t know where it has gone, and we promise to compensate.”
"Liar, you don't mean what you say!"
"You won't be allowed to leave until you pay for the car today." Following the voice, he lowered his head and could see that there were two little dots hanging on each of the astronaut's legs.
The two little guys were waving their fists and gnashing their teeth. If the space suits weren't too thick, they would have chewed them in one bite.
"I said this kind of thing is true, it will only happen to your Chinese army." Leader Dupont was confused, but Lao Ma had dealt with the Chinese army a lot, and he could also tell the identity of the woman .
It's just that his impartial words actually just meant that he still didn't quite understand what he said, which didn't sound right to the ears of the detachment leader.
"Let them handle a small military-civilian dispute by themselves." What's strange is that the detachment leader doesn't seem to want to get involved.
"Gina! Minmin!" Wang Qinyun is the well-deserved king of children in Salt Yingxing. Even though she is not much younger than the mother of these children, she is even like a sister.
At her call, the two little guys immediately let go of the astronaut and ran towards her with cheers.
Wang Qinyun knelt down, opened her arms and hugged the first one, and the second one turned around and rushed towards Lisa.
Lisa is also very familiar with these two children. After all, she and this family were trapped in the infirmary together on the Tarzan for more than ten days, relying on chatting to pass the time.
These two children are really naughty kids. Lisa didn't react at all. The little guy actually grabbed her clothes and climbed onto his body. He forgot about Lisa and picked her up, then turned around and gave her to Su Qin. , quickly sort out the clothes by yourself.
"Ah! Your clothes are so beautiful." Wang Qinyun had already whispered, but the little guy in Su Qin's arms immediately became quiet.
This is not surprising. Although Su Qin is also an acquaintance, he is just a knight. And he is definitely not as familiar as Wang Qinyun, a noble lady. He also does not have the usual hobby of holding a child and playing with it. Of course, he makes the little one very funny. nervous.
Su Qin was actually very nervous. He felt that your little one in his arms was starting to get stiff. He quickly imitated Wang Qinyun's topic and began to get closer.
"Your clothes... let me go, where did your clothes come from?" Su Qin had just raised the little one in his arms high, and was about to praise him for his beautiful clothes. Leng Yuhe was so happy that his hands shook and he almost didn't give it. Fell.
I saw the little girl in my arms wearing a military-style camouflage winter jacket as a coat, and a blue and white sportswear inside. She looked so familiar.
Su Qin glanced at Wang Qinyun. There was a boy in Wang Qinyun's arms. He was quite active and was not wearing a coat at all. He could see four big characters on the back of the blue and white sportswear: Binhai No. 2 Primary School.
Binhai Road No. 2 Primary School? This school is not far from the sanatorium.
Su Qin's shaking hands really startled the little girl in his arms, and she immediately twisted her body to get off the ground, so Su Qin had to put her down. As a result, someone snatched it away before it was put on the ground.
"If you don't know how to hold a child, don't do it. Gina, be good, come and eat some sweets!"
Su Qin didn't even raise his head, but he knew that his mother, Xiao Song, had arrived.
Xiao Song grabbed Gina and held her in his arms, stuffed her with a candy, then walked towards Aisha who was still wiping her tears, and immediately scolded her.
"You said you, your child is already so old. Just because of such a car, something unexpected is coming, and this time you bring your child to make trouble. They all said they would compensate, so they will definitely compensate. , let me tell you, this is our tradition..."
Xiao Song said he was defeated again, but he grabbed Aisha in his arms and just had one hand free to stuff a lollipop into her.
Su Qin looked behind him and thought to himself, it seems that Wang Qinyun is not here, but his mother has found a replacement.
Just as he was thinking this, he saw Wang Qinyun approaching with a little one in her arms. Wang Qinyun made it clear that she came to Xiao Song to compete for his favor, but she happened to come to the rescue for Aisha. Three women and two children suddenly crowded into a pile.
Su Qin chuckled, thinking that today's event would be good, at least something would be gained, and Wang Qinyun would know if there are still beautiful camouflage clothes on the earth.
When he turned back to look for Lisa, he found that Lisa had already run up to the astronaut who was still wearing an extravehicular space suit and was standing at attention and saluting.
Su Qin took a closer look, then ran over and stood at attention to salute. He said to himself that it seemed that his mother did not come here by chance, and she was probably not here to save him.
"Commander, are you okay?" The man in front of him was wearing an extravehicular spacesuit. He didn't have any military rank or service symbols, and naturally he didn't have a name strip.
But even Lisa, a foreigner who dreams of being an astronaut, recognizes this person. She is a pioneer in China's manned spaceflight. She is now the deputy captain of the astronaut brigade. Her military rank is higher than that of the detachment leader and Xiao Song. He is a well-known person. Major General.
"It's okay, it's okay. If anything happens to me, you guys can help me." Today's occasion is a bit awkward. Regardless of his rank, the deputy captain just wants to disappear as soon as possible.
"What's going on?" Since I want to help. Su Qin had to ask this question, and Comrade Deputy Captain could only give them a brief explanation.
It turns out that with the construction of the Mars base, especially after the Tiangong was moved to Mars synchronous orbit, the entire astronaut team could no longer sit still.
As soon as the direct transportation line to Mars started operating, all the astronauts immediately boarded ships and arrived at Mars, preparing to start Mars exploration work ten or twenty years in advance.
Of course, this inspection work cannot be carried out within the protective shield of the Mars base. That would be too ridiculous.
The first Mars ground test station was built outside the protective shield, 100 meters away.
The distance is so close that you can walk there wearing a space suit. However, all kinds of building materials, equipment, and instruments cannot be carried by humans alone. The astronauts sent urgent communications back to Earth to request that the Mars rover be equipped immediately.
However, the scientific research plan on the surface of Mars will be implemented more than ten or twenty years later. Now even the drawings of the Mars rover are still in the perfection stage, and you can get it wherever you want.
However, astronauts are not sticklers for rules, so when the second urgent communication was sent back, it had already been changed to request an electric off-road vehicle.
The so-called Mars rover is because it needs to be launched on a rocket. The structure must be light and strong, and it must not have too many consumable accessories. It must also have its own solar panel for charging.
These requirements are now unnecessary for astronauts who have the spacecraft core as their transport capacity.
