Dawn Sleep [Interstellar]

Roses (3)

Jiang Jianming said this, of course, the original intention, because he saw that Garcia was too wilted, and he wanted to tease him.

 

But the effect was minimal, and the prince still pursed his beautifully lined lips, his eyes sometimes bright and sometimes dark. He seemed to be struggling in some kind of emotion and kept silent for a long time.

 

“You… just based on a guess, you checked so much.” After a while, Garcia spoke again in a low voice, “I warn you one last time, he is not worth your effort.”

 

Jiang Jianming’s face became serious, and the smile drifted away from the corner of his eyes like smoke.

 

“Your Highness, it’s meaningless for you to dwell on this issue.”

 

Since his identity was known by Garcia, they have been pulling each other, but the focus of that tug-of-war had somehow skewed.

 

He wanted the prince to believe that “Garcia and Ryann are the same person”, but now the prince seemed to be more concerned about the issue of “Ryann is not worth Jiang Jianming’s love”.

 

Jiang Jianming couldn’t understand what kind of introspective spirit or jealousy this was.

 

As if seeing through his thoughts, Garcia impatiently hummed. “I’m not targeting your Crown Prince Ryann… okay, okay, let’s assume you’re right.”

 

“But at least for now, I am still a creation that can be mass-produced, how do you want to refute this?”

 

“Really?” Jiang Jianming raised his clear eyes and slowly said, “I once heard Major General Xie say that there was an explosion at the Black Shark Base three years ago.”

 

“..…”

 

Jiang Jianming: “Your Highness, whether it’s Ryann or Garcia in my memory, they are all very proud and untamed people.”

 

“Although I just said that you escaped, I can’t imagine that you would willingly accept the fate of being one of thousands of creations.”

 

Garcia raised his head slightly, his original expression was always gloomy, but at this moment he showed a half-second surprise, and then a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

 

“…Not bad, at that time I blew up the computer of the archive library. In fact, the base no longer has Ryann’s data.”

 

He gestured to the numbers on the instrument in front of him with his eyes, and then pulled out the chip plugged into the instrument.

 

“This is the only remaining one, here with me.”

 

When the chip was pulled out, those data, including the top row of “No. 000…generated data” text, disappeared.

 

Jiang Jianming laughed again, and he said thoughtfully. “So, in fact, there are no thousands of Ryanns at all.”

 

Garcia turned around coldly, standing face to face in front of Jiang Jianming. “Yes. If you didn’t come back just now.”

 

Yes, Garcia knew it clearly in his heart. At the moment when Jiang Jianming was away, he had already accepted it.

 

He would really go to the Far Interstellar alone, fight and trek alone, and spend countless days and nights alone under the cold starry sky—just like living every day that passed away in these three years.

 

He would keep his promise, he would go to the Crystal Nest alone, to find news about Ryann Kaios for Jiang Jianming.

 

The chip data would be returned to the base, if he died, there would be the next “replica” to guard the disabled crystal human who was in danger of life at any time.

 

In case the living Ryann was really found, he would escort the real prince back to Aslan with a starship, then as one who had lost the reason for existence, he would face everything he would face alone.

 

…Will it be secretly wiped out? Or will it be disguised and imprisoned in the Far Interstellar, serving as a humanoid weapon for the empire for a lifetime?

 

Insufficient evidence, unable to speculate, but that’s not important.

 

He had already accepted it.

 

But Jiang Jianming came back.

 

Garcia looked down from a high position, staring at Jiang Jianming. It was unknown what emotion surged in his heart, but a bit of fierce red appeared in his eyes, and he hoarsely said.

 

“What if your guess is wrong? If there is another Ryann Kaios alive, what will you do?”

 

Jiang Jianming: “I don’t know.”

 

Garcia: “I know.”

 

Jiang Jianming suddenly raised his head, and the next second, his shoulders were firmly grasped.

 

There was a chilling light in Garcia’s eyes, and he bent down in a posture that seemed to completely imprison the disabled human. His eyebrows were pressed low, and even his breathing was hot and trembling, as if he had exhausted all his strength and will just to make a sound, “I…I’m going to kill him.”

 

Jiang Jianming raised his eyebrows, his eyes like two pieces of misty deep sea.

 

The black-haired young man tilted his head slightly, but it didn’t seem like a real surprise, just lightly questioning with a nasal tone, “Hmm?”

 

The two were close together.

 

Garcia’s Adam’s apple moved, suddenly raising his hands, his palms from the shoulders up, stroking the fragile neck, and finally turning Jiang Jianming’s face.

 

The prince bowed his head, his platinum curls entangled with fine black hair, and his lips brushed against his earlobe. “I will kill him, chop him into pieces, grind his bones into ashes… in a place where you can’t see.”

 

Garcia’s grip was strong, forcing Jiang Jianming to tilt his head, revealing the bone shape under his slender neck, his skin as white as a line of mountain snow, with a few thin red marks left by the fingers.

 

This posture was definitely uncomfortable, even making it difficult to breathe, but he only showed a little bit of effort on his eyebrows, his eyes still gentle. “Is that so?”

 

Garcia gasped twice, his fingers trembling, his teeth constantly chattering, as if he was desperately restraining something.

 

“Then, I will take you back to Aslan, and on a quiet night, after you fall asleep, I will bury him under the flower bed in front of the White Jade Palace.”

 

Jiang Jianming said softly, “Okay.”

 

Garcia said, “By next year, a golden rose will bloom there.”

 

Jiang Jianming lowered his eyes and smiled, asking again, “And then?”

 

Garcia suddenly gritted his teeth, and in that moment of overwhelming emotion, he pulled Jiang Jianming into his arms.

 

He leaned down, heavy and light gasps intertwined, biting Jiang Jianming’s lips, the bloody and frenzied taste spreading in his mouth, dispersing the unspoken words –

 

“I will pick that golden rose and offer it to my lover.”

 

“……Uhmp!…..”

 

In the cold laboratory, two shadows were cast on the wall, shaking, trembling, melting into a light blue glow, like a fleeting dream.

 

This was a kiss born of love and despair, and entangled in a death struggle because of despair.

 

“Call my name,” Garcia suddenly spoke, then lowered his eyes and lips to grind against the person in his arms like a release of pent-up emotions. “Call.”

 

“You…” Jiang Jianming breathed thinly, not expecting things to suddenly turn out like this. The fierce beast he had raised by his side had revealed its aggressive nature, wanting to swallow him whole.

 

“G…Garcia…” Already caught off guard and kissed senseless, he trembled in resistance. “Wait…wait, you…uhmp!…hiss.”

 

“Wrong call,” Garcia was annoyed.

 

Jiang Jianming let out a soft “ah” as his slender and flexible waist was gripped by warm palms.

 

He was almost lifted and pressed against the wall by the whole person, and when he was so agitated that his eyes turned black and he couldn’t breathe, he was laid horizontally on top of the huge glass cultivation chamber.

 

As the world spun and shadows fell, Garcia pressed down on him again.

 

“…” Jiang Jianming gasped, his eyes wide open as he watched the platinum curls he liked fall on his cheeks. “Your Highness, you…you need to slow down and let me catch my breath…”

 

“Your lover treated you badly before, he abandoned you and forced you to ruin your body. He doesn’t deserve your devotion,” Garcia said, his eyes red. “But he will cherish you in the future, make up for his mistakes, and he will love you….very much.”

 

“Do you believe that?”

 

The ending sound carried a hint of trembling, but it didn’t sound weak and helpless. It was more like trembling with a certain power that was more resolute and decisive.

 

Trembling because of a certain decision made, carrying a certain kind of understanding.

 

Jiang Jianming paused, realizing the meaning behind his words.

 

“…..hm.”

 

Jiang Jianming’s expression remained calm, but his eyes were silently moist. He reached out his fingers and gently stroked the prince’s face. “I believe, Your Highness. I believe.”

 

“Then call my name.”

 

Garcia was also looking at Jiang Jianming, and finally…he made those dull lips take on a captivating color, like the red of the sunset on the Omega Alien Star.

 

He couldn’t blame him… because just now, he had already admitted it, the prince thought to himself.

 

God knows how much he wanted to monopolize this damn disabled human forever, and how much heart-wrenching pain he endured to decide to give up. He originally thought that if he could exchange for Jiang’s safety, it would be fine, but…

 

But Jiang Jianming came back to him.

 

So calmly proving to him that he was not an artificially replicated creature.

 

So firmly saying that he should be a proud and untamed person.

 

Even when being violated, he was still resisting and welcoming, he really didn’t know what he wanted to do.

 

A sheep into the tiger’s mouth, stupid disabled human.

 

“Jiang, look at me,” the prince said, “Call my name.”

 

He had always hated a certain name deeply. But as Jiang Jianming said, he turned his back to the light and hid himself in the dark, which was a kind of concession and escape.

 

But now, the shadow in the dark had a reason to fight, showing its fangs to the inviolable light.

 

“The name is actually not important.” Jiang Jianming maintained the posture of lying on the glass surface, and said with a faint smile, “But if you want to hear it, I can also call… Ryann.”

 

Garcia also slowly laughed. He took out the chip again, held it between his fingers, and squeezed it hard.

 

Crack.

 

The chip was broken into several pieces and he casually threw it on the ground.

 

“You’re done.”

 

The prince said lazily. “Your thousands of Ryanns have been crushed by me.”

 

“From this moment on, whether it’s the past or the future, you only have me.”

 

He would not replace Ryan, he wanted Ryann to become him.

 

He would inherit the responsibility of this name, make up for the mistakes of this name, and let the mystery covered by this name be revealed.

 

After the dust settled, the crown princess who had been engaged to this name… of course it would also be his.

 

Jiang Jianming looked at the person in front of him peacefully, he watched Garcia’s expression from gloomy to mad, and now he could smile naturally. This was a transformation and a rebirth.

 

He couldn’t say more at this moment, thought for a while, blinked and said, “Then… then you need to plant thousands of roses for me.”

 

“I will give you, I will give it to you.”

 

Garcia closed his eyes and kissed him heavily again, grinding and crushing his lips against his, but his throat leaked soft syllables in such an aggressive kiss, “I love you… Jiang, don’t leave me… I love you.”

 

The gloss flickered in the dark, and the crystal bone extended from the prince’s waist to the ground, still tensely restless.

 

The red gold real crystal began to condense, and real crystal roses bloomed one by one, carefully surrounding the disabled human on the glass. This scene was incredibly mysterious and beautiful, like a holy scene in ancient murals.

 

Then, all the sounds quieted down.

 

****

 

–At that time, the Crystal Nest in the depths of the universe was still flashing with mysterious luster day after day for thousands of years, and the surrounding dormant alien creatures were lurking in the shadows of the universe.

 

And in the universe that was unknown how many light-years apart, the expeditionary fleet of the Silver Big Dipper was advancing in blood, turning into a bunch of afterimages and disappearing in the wormhole of a high-dimensional leap, leaving a large piece of wreckage after the fierce battle.

 

Alpha Alien Star, the snow was vast. The soldiers of the Silver Big Dipper’s first fortress were still patrolling, exercising, exploring, fighting, no different from every day in the past.

 

Under the increasingly tense war situation, the latest batch of adaptation period officers have already driven the mecha and rushed to the battlefield with an uncertain future.

 

Within the empire, after experiencing the night of internal strife that would inevitably be recorded in history books, the New Year had passed without any danger. When the new round of sunrise illuminated the earth, it would bring new light and new shadows.

 

As known to all, the rules of the Old Empire died at the New Year’s Eve that was about to enter the 64th year of the Old Imperial Calendar. And now, the nine star cities were ushering in the 64th year of the New Imperial Calendar——

 

The first dawn.
