Ruan Qiu stayed in the starship for three days.
In the past three days, Tang Qian came to see him from time to time, took him to visit the accommodation area of the starship, and answered some of his questions.
For example, why Ruan Qiu was exiled, and how did the inquiry find him later?
Tang Qian did not mention the attack on Yuan, and the two groups of allied forces sent to confirm Ruan Qiu's identity failed, only picked out the key information to tell him.
Ruan Qiu was a little stunned: "So, my uncle is my only relative?"
As Tang Qian said, his mother was a general in the alliance. Eighteen years ago, she led the army to resist the alien race that invaded the galaxy and died in the last battle.
There was very little information about his father. All he knew was that he was an ordinary person from a small planet. After Si Ying's death, he also disappeared.
During the period when the two fell in love, Si Ying did not see anyone for a long time, but before he found Ruan Qiu, Si Xun did not know that she had another child.
If Ruan Qiu's appearance and silver-haired shallow pupils were not too obvious, I'm afraid he would have stayed in a place like Loren Mercury now.
When Tang Qian talked about this, the eyes looking at Ruan Qiu were always full of heartache.
Si Xun and Si Ying both grew up watching him. Si Ying's spiritual talent is not top-notch. She has made several times more efforts than ordinary people and went through all kinds of strict training before she was successfully elected as the general of the league.
She was sensible and suffered a lot, but she died at the border at such a young age, and the blood left behind waited for 18 years to be found.
"Yes," Tang Qian replied, "After the blood relationship is identified through the database of the main star, you will have a new identity."
Ruan Qiu's father is mostly gone. Even if he is there, Ruan Qiu's guardian must only be the enquirer.
"Then do I need to change my name?" Ruan Qiu asked again, "Is your last name... Si?"
Tang Qian shook his head: "Who did you hear that? Don't bother so much."
In the galaxy, it has long been used to follow the mother's surname or the father's surname. After the age of 18, it is all up to personal will. Even twins, it is normal to have different surnames.
Ruan Qiu nodded in a stern, "After the inspection, are we going back to the main star?"
He has turned over the galaxy map several times, ranking first in the Alpha main star. At that time, he felt out of reach, but now he lives there.
Tang Qian nodded: "It will take at least two months to patrol. Sir is busy with his business, and he may return to the main star early halfway."
The meaning of the words is that Ruan Qiu has to follow the inquiry all the time, and he will be wherever the inquiry is.
Ruan Qiu said "Oh" and lowered his head to pinch the glass in his hand.
There are some nutrients in the cup, which taste like a slightly sweet juice. It is said that it can nourish his body. When he returns to the main star, he will do a detailed physical examination, and arrange a special person to be responsible for his diet.
Tang Qian also said that he would be tested for his mental strength and sent him to school.
The allied army has left Loren Mercury. Ruan Qiu was very quiet in the past few days when he was taken into the starship. He was not noisy, gentle and polite. He always shouted "Grandpa Tang" in the face of Tang Qian.
According to age and generation, Ruan Qiu can indeed call Tang Qian a grandpa.
In short, he is not like a child who grew up from a slum planet. After three days of getting along with each other, Ruan Qiu's impression in Tang Qian's heart has skyrocketed.
In addition, Ruan Qiu does not seem to have recovered from all this, and has been in a state of confusion and caution.
Tang Qian became more and more distressed. He asked the waiter to prepare some snacks and fruits, and then said to Ruan Qiu in a gentle voice, "Young master, don't worry. If you have any needs, just mention it."
Ruan Qiu hesitated for a moment: "Then... can you return the communicator to me?"
He took a look at the expression on Tang Qian's face and whispered, "There is also a small box, my medical robot. If the communicator doesn't work, give me back the small box."
He is wearing a new communicator. Tang Qian has taught him how to use it, but only Tang Qian's communication code is stored in the communicator. Without the communication code, he can't contact others.
Tang Qian did not agree immediately, but said that he would help him ask the inquiry.
Since Ruan Qiu met Si Xun on the first day, he has never appeared again.
Ruan Qiu even had the illusion that Tang Qian was his relative, not the enquirer.
Ruan Qiu's mood was a little complicated and asked, "Is uncle busy recently?"
He has been staying in the accommodation area of the starship, and the outside world is not clear at all.
Tang Qian thought a little, "Do you... want to find your husband?"
Si Xun was actually not busy. The Allied army went to patrol the planets, and he didn't even need to show up.
Ruan Qiu frowned gently and didn't quite understand what Tang Qian meant.
"If you have nothing to do, can't you see your uncle?" There was some doubt in his eyes, and he looked at Tang Qian confusedly, "My uncle didn't come to see me either..."
Before coming here, Ruan Qiu's relatives were only his father and a distant uncle.
He has been ill for too long, and the cost in the hospital is getting bigger and bigger, which is not affordable for ordinary people.
Ruan Qiu's parents divorced early, and the relationship with his father was not good. Every time his father came to see him, he always looked tired and helpless.
The uncle did not come to the hospital often, but he would help pay some expenses. Later, Ruan Qiu's father went to work in other places and never appeared again. He continued to be hospitalized for treatment and occasionally accepted donations from some kind-hearted people.
After waking up from this strange place, Ruan Qiu thought he would continue to be alone, but he didn't expect that he had an uncle.
When he just learned this information, he was indeed not used to it, but he was happy and wanted to know the inquiry as soon as possible.
However... Si Xun didn't seem to want to see him.
Ruan Qiu sighed silently, and his drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, looking a little disappointed: "Uncle... doesn't like me very much?"
Why?
Ruan Qiu remembered the first sentence when Si Xun saw him, saying that he was a little loser.
Tang Qian was stunned and quickly said, "No, sir, he has always been like this..."
"Because I..." Ruan Qiu whispered, "Is it too weak?"
From Tang Qian's words, he can imagine that his mother with a body is a very powerful person.
As the chief of the league, Si Xun must also be outstanding. In contrast, he seems to be very mediocre.
Ruan Qiu asked carefully, his tone was still lost, and there was a little timidity and timidity, as if he was afraid that if Si Xun would drive him away and send him back to Loren Mercury.
Tang Qian began to feel distressed again and couldn't help comforting him, "Don't think so, sir, he cares about you very much and will take time to see you..."
When Tang Qian finished speaking, Ruan Qiu lowered his eyes quietly: "It doesn't matter. Let's wait until my uncle is done."

The news that the allied forces spent a huge amount of energy to open two transition points and arrived at Mercury in early, which soon spread throughout the galaxy.
Several interstellar news agencies reported in a series of reports, almost praising the inquiry, saying that the Union Army did so and turned the planned inspection into a raid inspection, so that it could really have the effect of the inspection.
Some people disapprove of this behavior very much. At present, the Allied Army is not the only main force in the interstellar. It's just a routine inspection, which is really a waste.
Tang Qian collected all the negative news and the reactions of the legislators to the matter, and gave them one by one to the department for consultation.
Si Xun was not interested in these. He just glanced at them and threw them on the table: "Where's that little loser?"
Tang Qian replied, "The young master is still getting used to it these days. His appetite is not very good, and his mood... is also a little depressed."
Si Xun frowned: "Are you in a low mood? What's wrong with him?
Tang Qian seemed to be waiting for his words. He took out a palm-sized display screen from his body and handed it to the inquiry.
The display screen records all the situations of Ruan Qiu. What time does he go to bed, what time does he get up, and how much he eats every day?
"Is that how you ate? Not to your appetite? The inquiry continued to look down and slid the screen to the left, followed by an audio.
The content in the audio is exactly the conversation between Tang Qian and Ruan Qiu yesterday.
Hearing Ruan Qiu ask in a low tone, did his uncle not like him? Si Xun was silent.
Until the audio was played, Si Xun glanced at Tang Qian and didn't say anything.
After a long time, he asked, "What is the small box?"
"It's a medical robot for some years."
Tang Qian ordered someone to send the mechanical box in, and there was also a simple communicator.
The mechanical box is a very old style, and the shell is seriously worn. Obviously, it has been used for a long time.
Tang Qian said, "The young master has just come back, and it's normal to want to keep some old things with him."
Si Xun raised his chin slightly and said, "Give it to him."
It is impossible to return the communicator. Although this mechanical box is not very useful, if Ruan Qiu is thinking about it, it is okay to keep it as an ornament.
Tang Qian answered, and Si Xun looked at the communicator on the table and asked about the situation of Qi Yuan: "Isn't he dead yet?"
"No," when it came to attacking Yuan, Tang Qian restrained his expression: "The allied army that day went to chase him happened to hit a few strange star ships and had a little conflict."
Most of those star ships also came to attack the abyss. The allied forces hit them, but gave the attack to the abyss a chance to escape.
"Sir, this person must not stay too much," Tang Qian's tone became more and more serious and cold. "The young master is simple and kind. He must have been deceived by him to get close to him."
He has been with Si Xun for so long that he has never looked away. Ruan Qiu's performance can't be pretended.
Because of this, when it comes to his close relationship with Xiyuan at that time, it seems that the latter is even more hateful.
"Continue to track," Si Xun's face was slightly cold. "You can't let him go back to the lion dove."

The next day, Ruan Qiu received a mechanical box from Tang Qian.
He was surprised and happy. He took the mechanical box in his hand and looked over and over to confirm that it was safe.
"Thank you, Grandpa Tang," Ruan Qiu said, "also... thank my uncle for me."
Tang Qian nodded with a smile. Seeing that Ruan Qiu was happy for the first time in the past few days, his eyes were full of kindness, as if he had become his grandfather.
He called the servant, continued to prepare nutrients and some food for Ruan Qiu, and went to the nearby planet to choose a few more suitable clothes for him.
Ruan Qiu put the mechanical box into his coat pocket and asked inadvertently, "Uncle, are you still busy today?"
He noticed that the starship had set out again and was heading to the next planet. During the time before arrival, the inquiry should be free.
Tang Qian's answer is still vague: "Sir may still be dealing with other official duties."
Ruan Qiu didn't ask too much. After drinking the nutrients sent by the servant, Tang Qian sent him back to his room.
As soon as he closed the door, the mechanical box immediately poked its head out of his pocket: "Didi!"
Ruan Qiu took it out and put it on the sofa.
He touched the thin arm of the mechanical box and said sadly, "Small box, there are only two of us left now."
He doesn't know how Xi Yuan is now and where he will be.
They separated so suddenly that they didn't even say goodbye.
When I go to the main star, how can I find the abyss in the vast sea of stars?
The more Ruan Qiu thought about it, the more sad he became. He leaned on the armrest of the sofa in silence.
At this time, the mechanical box came to him, pulled his clothes down.
When Ruan Qiu looked down at it, he quickly jumped off the sofa and raised his arms to stroke back and forth on the ground.
Its body is only one whole piece, and its movements are very clumsy. Ruan Qiu looked at it blankly for a long time before he found that the mechanical box seemed to be a string of numbers.
Numbers...?
Ruan Qiu's eyes suddenly lit up, carefully identified the action of the mechanical box, and connected the numbers into the communicator.
In the screen projected by the communicator, it shows that there is indeed this communication code, which can send a message.
Ruan Qiu hesitated for a long time before clicking send.
[Brother?]
[Ruan Qiu, it's me.]
Only less than a minute after the successful delivery, a reply came from the opposite side.
Ruan Qiu was so excited that he picked up the mechanical box and pressed it into his arms, and continued to send messages to Xi Yuan.
[Where are you?]
Finally, he contacted Xiyuan. After he was happy, the grievances and confusion after these days also surged up.
Xi Yuan hasn't replied yet, and Ruan Qiu sent another one.
[I miss you very much.]
