Chapter 025 Earth Time

Gradually... Huo Xiu felt that someone was approaching, and the comer was careful and there was no extra sound, but he was very clear to him in a semi-sleep state.

He didn't open his eyes, just waited.

Who the hell is it?

The voice continued to approach, and now it has come to the bedside - standing beside him!

He suddenly opened his eyes.

"Annie?"

He subconsciously shouted and stared at her familiar face in disbelief. Thinking, isn't it that you haven't seen each other for a few months and have hallucinations? But in the blink of an eye, he was sure that he had regained consciousness, and the man standing in front of him was obviously real.

"Maybe I should choose another time?" She asked, although facing Huo Xiu, the angle of sight was not right. He looked down and understood.

"No, give me a few minutes." He lifted the blanket covering his body, and a wonderful body of a ** woman appeared in front of him. The crazy clouds and rain last night were still vivid. He rubbed his temple and asked, "When did you come here? How did you know I was here?"

"I arrived last night. I sent you a message, but another man answered it. I hung up and used the program in the personal terminal I carried to track the signal device in your personal communicator. I found a person named 'Tom Acker'. I tortured it for a while before I knew your whereabouts.

Huo Xiu was not surprised that Anne would do this. She, who had been trained by military intelligence agents, was used to it. She just asked, "What did you do to him?"

"No, he was not very cooperative at first, but after giving him a lesson... he had a good attitude, and now he is tied to the toilet of the bathroom next door."

"Hey... It's not good." Huo Xiu smiled a few times, "Help me get my clothes."

"Hmm." She nodded and bent down to pick up the clothes thrown on the ground one by one.

Huo Xiu looked at the sleeping woman lying on his body. He really didn't expect that they usually didn't talk much and belonged to strangers who could be named, but they actually hooked up with each other last night. The two danced, drank or something, went out for a walk, and inexplicably found a hotel, and then had sex.

He shook his painful head and played crazily last night. It was not long after he fell asleep. It seemed that he also had a moment when he couldn't control his desire.

"Give." Annie handed him her trousers.

"Thank you!" He got up and put on his trousers in front of Anne, but she didn't think she should avoid or anything, just stood quietly.

"Hey, you shouldn't look at me like that." Hoshiura covered himself with a quilt, "I will be shy."

Anne couldn't help laughing, then turned around and held her arms.

Huo Xiu's action of getting up and dressing woke up the people next to her. She opened her confused eyes and saw Huo Xiu, who was wearing clothes, and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Me?" Huo Xiu buttoned his shirt, "Kelly--"

"My name is Eleanor." She corrected, "Elano Cruz."

"Okay, Miss Cruz, nice to meet you." Huo Xiu said while dressing, "You are a beautiful girl, but now I need to leave."

When Huo Xiu put on his shoes, Eleanor completely woke up. She pulled up the quilt to cover her smooth body and said, "Are you going to leave like this?"

"What else do you need me to do?" Huo Xiu turned to face her and said, "I can help you at any time." Of course, even Annie could hear it. It was just an indifferent polite word.

"No, I want you to stay!" After saying that, Eleanor suddenly pointed to Anne with her back and asked, "Also, who is she?"

"My sister." He said casually.

"You don't look like each other at all!" Eleanor seemed to be a little angry with Huo Xiu's current attitude, "Who the hell do you think of me?"

"Oh!" Huo Xiu patted himself on the head, "Miss Cruz, haven't you seen a half-sister?"

"Really?"

"Naturally it's true." Huo Xiu looked serious, "There is something wrong with my family, so I'll take a step ahead!"

Huo Xiu patted Anne on the shoulder and walked towards the door.

Elleanor frowned. When Huo Xiu walked to the door, she suddenly understood.

"Fuck you!" She scolded, "Bastard, don't let me meet you again, or I will make you completely regret it. I'm not a woman who can be abandoned casually after finishing!"

"Well, I'm a man who can be abandoned casually after finishing!" Huo Xiu finished speaking and closed the door casually, and Eleanor's voice was immediately isolated.

"Are you sure you don't want to persuade her?" Annie asked him.

"What else can I do?" He spread out his hands and said, "Do I have to kneel in front of her and say that you are the only one for me. You are the only woman in my life, and I will no longer look at other females seriously? Come on, in this regard, I have always regarded these as a moment when human nature returns to animals - purely for instinct.

"Is that why you have sex with her?" Annie asked cautiously.

"It's almost the same. Take what you need." Huo Xiu felt a little confused. Maybe the answer was not like this, but he couldn't find the correct answer, "This room, right?"

"Well, I'll open it." Annie swiped the door with the room card, and Huo Xiu took the lead in.

"Huo Xiu..." She hesitated to ask, "In your heart, do you regard all women as... objects that can be abandoned at any time and have no weight in your heart?"

"What's your little head thinking about?" Huo Xiu went to the bathroom, took out the towel stuffed in Tom's mouth, then released his hands tied back and patted him on the face.

"Just like the woman just now, you have done a little... too much."

"Maybe." Huo Xiu thought for a moment, "But I'm not all as you said."

"Really?" She asked.

"Really. For example, the perfect woman in my heart is like my mother; the naughty and headache representative is my sister, but now it should have changed; and..." Huo Xiu said many women's names and had good reviews. He glanced at Annie, "There is another one more."

He turned around and left the suite, smiled softly, looked ahead, and said as he walked, "My personal bodyguard, the most effective assistant, always keep me and want to protect my safety. Guess who is it?"

"Yes..." She looked up at Huo Xiu and opened her eyes wide.

"Anne Leonideva Romanova."

After he finished speaking, he grabbed Anne's hand and walked forward. After more than ten seconds, he asked in a confirmed and low voice, "Am I right?"

"Yes." Annie said shyly, "But you don't have to read it all."

"Do you have to be sincere?" Huo Xiu walked into the elevator with a smile and pressed the button, "Otherwise you wouldn't be able to rank in my heart!"

He took Annie to the hotel restaurant and ordered two minutes of breakfast.

"Annie, what can I do for you here?"

"I will come to you according to the transfer order. After you officially get the military rank, you can enter the army, but that place is a little far away, so I need to show you the way."

"Far?"

"Well, in a remote colonial area."

Huo Xiu nodded, stirred in the milk cup with a silver-white spoon, and said, "That's really far enough."

According to the regulations, the alliance refers to the area around the earth within 200 light years as the "near settlement area", generally called the "near area", while the area 200 light years away is called the "distant settlement area". In fact, it is also a human habitation area, and the difference is not too big, but there is still a difference.

It has taken hundreds of years to develop and plan the recent regional alliance. Whether it is in space links or other aspects of military, trade, etc., it has formed a set of fixed routes, which are regular and orderly. They integrate and support each other in military protection, and cultural exchanges are very close.

Although it has been visited by explorers 200 years ago, it has only developed explosively in these 100 years. The territory is vast, and it can reach more than 1,500 light years away. However, due to the hasty development, defects appear over time, such as military defense, local politics, trade exchanges, etc., and the vast space makes it difficult to manage in an orderly manner. Although the alliance has devoted most of its troops and talents to it, various criminal cases still occur frequently, the most serious of which are the armed forces against the alliance, the star pirates who lick blood with knives, etc., which have caused the root cause of chaos in remote areas.

Due to public opinion, people in the nearby region regard the remote area as an unreachable, chaotic and crime-frequent place. Although the far area has a bad reputation to a certain extent, it is not as described by the people under the control of the alliance.

Huo Xiu knows this very well, because he has visited many colonial stars in remote areas. In short, the population is a little smaller, but the economy and trade are no worse than that of nearby areas, and the vast area gives them more space for development and people's lives more freely.

The development of remote areas has both advantages and disadvantages, which is also the reason why the alliance has stopped expanding its colonial areas in recent years. The distance of more than 1,500 light-years is enough for the alliance's population of more than 100 billion. If it continues to develop, it will only cause economic chaos and uncontrollable consequences.

"But after you get the military rank, you still have ten days off." Anne said to him, "General Eaton told me that you can use this time to go home."

"Ten days?" Huo Xiu nodded, "But is there still some time before the title? This is the home planet of the alliance. It is famous and can't be used by everyone. If one day you tell someone that you have been to the earth, but you can't say anything except this sentence, you can only make jokes.

"There are still five days before the award, and your schedule is enough for you..."

"Stop!" Huo Xiu made a stop gesture and pushed the breakfast to her. "I don't need your plan now, my chief assistant! Eat your food, and then I will control you. Where to go? Don't make any comments, just follow me!"

Anne pouted and was a little unconvinced, but she also put away the private terminal, obediently obeyed Huo Xiu's order and finished the breakfast on the table.
