October 30, 1127, Galactic Calendar

The half-month-long end-of-semester test finally ended, and the 3,100 cadets of the Madoff Military Academy ushered in a ten-day short vacation. It's finally time to relax - that's all the lads have to say.

Shang Ping stood in front of the gate of the Madoff Military Academy with his suitcase in his hand. Across a wide street, dozens of small family spaceships were parked neatly, leaving and docking very neatly and orderly. Looking back at the bronze statue of Madoff White White standing in front of the main entrance, his black eyes blinked. In a sense, autocratic system and personality cult did not seem to be a bad thing.

"Shang Ping, it's been a long wait!"

John Jonathan strode towards Shang Ping with a huge canvas bag on his back. Shang Ping and John Jonathan are also from the West End of Hercules. When John Jonathan learned that Shang Ping needed to take a short-distance spaceship home, he strongly invited Shang Ping to take his own small family spaceship.

"It takes eight hours from here to the West End. With you, at least you won't be so bored that you just want to sleep."

Lifting Shang Ping's luggage at his feet with one hand, John Jonathan patted Shang Ping's shoulder vigorously, and Shang Ping began to regret why he accepted the big man's proposal so rashly.

A small black family spaceship stopped in front of the two of them. John threw Shang Ping and his luggage on the back seat, took out the connector, and the spacecraft switched from intelligent operation to manual operation. Looking at John Jonathan in high spirits, Shang Ping wondered if this tall 14-year-old boy had obtained a spaceship pilot's license?

"How could I have? I'm only fourteen."

"…"

"Don't worry, I can successfully control a single-player fighter, not to mention this small family spaceship, safe." John snapped his fingers excitedly. It is a rare opportunity to have such an opportunity, and it would be a pity not to show it off in front of friends. After the words fell, press the start button, the numbers on the speed dial began to jump, and the scenery outside the window began to reverse rapidly.

Five minutes later, Shang Ping began to regret not taking the short-distance spaceship. He regretted it very much.

"John..."

"what?"

A laser gun was placed on John's head, and Shang Ping's cold voice sounded in the not spacious space, "Stop the car for me! Otherwise, switch to intelligent operation! Immediately! Immediately!"

"Shang Ping, the laser gun that the college gave us is not to threaten your good friend..."

"Shut up! My life is now seriously threatened, and I have the right to exercise the right to defend my life!"

"All right."

Realizing that his friend wasn't joking, John Jonathan reluctantly stepped on the brakes. The spacecraft is parked by a small man-made drinking pool on the side of the road, which is a place for long-distance travelers to drink water and take a short rest.

Shang Ping got out of the car and sat on the bench by the pool, without saying a word. John stood in front of Shang Ping, scratched his head, and asked uneasy, "Shang Ping, are you angry?"

"Really angry?"

"Okay, I'm not messing around anymore, I promise! Get in the car, we have to go back to the West End before sunset, or we'll be arrested as suspicious by the patrol spacecraft. I don't want to go into the terrifying little black house for interrogation."

While talking, John made a gesture of pulling his neck and made a funny grimace on his face. He really felt sorry for Shang Ping. Although I don't know why Shang Ping is so angry about his behavior of driving without a license, aren't many Mars boys like this? An apology is still needed.

Shang Ping stabilized his mood and was a little depressed. He couldn't tell John that he died in a car accident in his previous life, and the perpetrator was an unlucky guy who drove without a license.

"Well, John, I'm not angry."

The Mars boy has been dealing with mechanical spaceships since he was born, and Shang Ping felt that he was indeed making a fuss.

Seeing his friend's attitude eased, John let out a sigh of relief. He had rarely seen Shang Ping so nervous and angry. After replacing the home spaceship with intelligent operation and setting precise coordinates, John simply flattened the chair in the front row, took out snacks and virtual space games from his backpack, and pulled Shang Ping to play together.

"Come on, let's pass these eight boring hours together."

Looking at John who was in high spirits, Shang Ping patted his forehead helplessly, "...I think I'd better take a short-distance spaceship..."

"Shangping!"

The mansion of Marshal David South, the commander-in-chief of the Mars Planet Space Fleet, is located in the eastern district of the capital Hercules. This is a six-storey independent building with obvious Mars style, thick and capable. The previous owner of this building obviously had romantic feelings. In the vast yard in front of the building, an artificial fountain with artistic flavor was built. Around the fountain, artificial gardens, small shrubs, and even two statues were irregularly distributed. Marble sculpture with symbols of earth civilization. The patterns on the sculpture are intricate and gorgeous. Just after the mansion changed hands, the two sculptures were immediately shelved and thrown into the warehouse. Together with the romantic garden, they were uprooted and replaced with the landing spot of the spacecraft. Only the fountain at the center of the main road leading from the gate to the main house has been preserved. Although David Soth once knocked the fountain into a pile of stones, it was finally settled because of a certain lady's objection.

The great lady who dared to compete with the Commander-in-Chief of the Mars Space Fleet was Diana, the mother of Marshal David South's three children.

The silver elongated family spaceship stopped in front of the gate, and Austin Soth stepped off the spaceship, with brilliant blond hair, cold green eyes, fair skin, and a slender figure, set off by a black Madoff Military Academy uniform, Even more tall and handsome. He inherited his father's excellent mind and mother's beauty, and is the darling of the Soth family.

The butler was already ready to wait by the side.

"Master, welcome home."

"kindness."

Austin nodded coldly. He is the third son of David South, and as the father of the marshal, he has always raised his three sons with the standards of the military. Austin's two older brothers are both serving in the army. The eldest brother, Alexander, has been promoted to major. The second brother, Ferrie, serves as the commander's staff in the Second Fleet. As the youngest son in the family, Austin naturally chose the same path as his father and brother. After graduating from Madoff Military Academy, Austin will serve in the Third Fleet. The commander of this fleet, Drufa, was one of the most outstanding Jagged soldiers in Mars.

Austin has always been the best, and has been praised for his performance in both schoolwork and simulated actual combat. Only, in the just-concluded end-of-semester test, an unpleasant experience kept Austin from smiling.

His one-man fighter was knocked out by a guy who sneaked behind him and had to quit the fight! After the practice class, Austin found the guy who attacked him, an inconspicuous black-haired boy, according to the coordinates where the fighter plane appeared at that time. Before this class, he had never even noticed that there was such a guy in the same class. This made Austin annoyed and began to reflect on whether he was too proud to ignore a lot of things.

Should I wait until the holidays are over to meet the guy who nearly shot him down?
