After using force to rescue First Officer Kelly and Second Officer Petrus, the Orville stayed in the orbit of the planet called 'Tianshe' for nearly twenty days and nearly a month.

, they didn’t go anywhere, they just observed the changes in the human country on that planet so closely.

After all, Annie made a big fuss. Although it did not cause any direct casualties, the damage to the equipment on the planet, especially satellites and other communication equipment, was extremely huge. It can even be said that

That planet suffered extremely heavy losses?

But even then, those Tianshe stars did not have the ability to protest or try to fight back against the Orville.

Because, after Annie made a big fuss, especially after launching the 'EMP' attack, taking advantage of the chaos of the Tianshe Star government, an opposition that had been latent for a long time and had been supported by some sympathizers,

That kind of revolutionary army, composed entirely of 'Kiryaks' who had been persecuted for countless years, brazenly declared an uprising and quickly captured several cities.

Immediately afterwards, a war broke out on the planet's surface.

As a result, the die-hard governments of Tianshe Planet paid no more attention to the Orville, allowing the Orville to stay blatantly in the orbit of the planet and watch the situation change.

During this period, Ed and others naturally had to endure many warnings and questions from the top of the Planetary Alliance Command. Among them, Ed, as the captain, was even more concerned about his inability to control a certain troubled little girl.

', 'Misdirection' and 'wrong response' and other problems lead to the greatest amount of pressure!

But fortunately, even though he received the most scolding and was recorded in the file again, the matter was still settled in the end. The senior officials of the Planetary Alliance seemed to know that Ed was not to blame and also knew the culprit.

Who is it? So, after scolding and demeriting where necessary, the matter was just forced to be settled by Hu.

"Report!"

"The chaos on the planet has stopped. The revolutionary army and the government army seem to have declared a ceasefire."

"!

"

"captain!"

"The Tianshe Star people sent us a radio wave, saying that they are preparing to negotiate with the revolutionary army and form a new coalition government, and are preparing to abolish the incorrect laws and moral norms?"

"them……"

"They agree to make changes?"

"Report!"

"It has just been observed that the remaining dozens of concentration camps controlled by government forces on the planet have been opened!"

"Oh my God!"

"Those 'Kiryaks' who have been persecuted for countless years and imprisoned because they were born in the wrong month have finally been released!"

"captain!?"

Today, when everyone on the Orville continued to wait and observe the development of the situation boredly on the bridge, suddenly, the communications officer stood up from her post with an exclaim, and spoke loudly and excitedly.

Ed and the other officers on the bridge announced.

Then, after the report, she looked with excitement and admiration at a certain little girl in the bridge who was competing with Ed for the captain's position, without concealing her joyful expression and admiring gaze.

.

"yeah!"

＼＼\?('?')?////

"Look!"

(*?′╰╯`?)?

"I've already said that it would be easier to just use force to coerce you, right now?"

?ヽ(゜?゜ヽ)?

"If you don't listen to what you say, just go ahead and fight. Why should you care what they think?"

(?￣?￣?) Hehe!

Seeing that things developed as she expected, Anne smiled proudly, as if it was all her fault, and she had accomplished all that, and then she didn't even bother to talk to some idiot.

The captain pulled.

Just now, she had insisted on pulling the other person directly from the captain's position, and then jumped on the other person's seat to jump around.

(…)

(●￣?￣●)

"ah!"

"Is this a compromise?"

Captain Ed couldn't help but be a little stunned by the sudden change in the situation.

"So fast?"

"sure?"

Because as far as he knew, the opposition had only occupied a small continent, and there was still a long way to go before completely subverting the legal government of the Tianshe star people. But now that kind of change has occurred, it is indeed

It was a bit unexpected for him.

"Of course!"

"how?"

"Ed, isn't this good now?"

After being reconfirmed, the first mate Kelly next to him also relaxed with relief and asked with a smile.

"No!"

"only……"

"I always feel that it is not good for us to interfere with others."

"besides!"

"It's really surprising that the opposition won so quickly."

Ed pursed his lips as he pondered, and finally shook his head with a wry smile and expressed his feelings at the moment.

"Accident?"

Kelly frowned slightly, then glanced at Anne who was leaning next to Gordon and wanted to operate it herself to get more information before continuing:

"Anyway, I'm not surprised."

"They formulate absurd laws and morals, and then they claim to be righteous, and they persecute and kill so many people in the name of legality with peace of mind, and they continue to fool the people's minds. They are the most terrifying demons in hell!"

"Even without Annie and us, I'm afraid they will be overthrown by the awakened Tianshe people sooner or later, right?"

"If it's just peace talks now, those politicians are still too cheap!"

Unlike Ed who was unwilling to interfere too much with the planet, Kelly and Bertus were caught in the concentration camp and held for several hours. They even suffered an inhumane beating before being imprisoned!

Therefore, from the bottom of her heart, she opposed and resented the legal government of the Tianshe star people, and sincerely sympathized with those who, like her, were declared guilty for the outrageous reason of "wrong date of birth" and then were imprisoned and suffered in concentration camps.

people.

Fortunately, they were only imprisoned for a few hours at that time, otherwise, God knows what would be waiting for her and Petrus!

As far as she knew, many people inside had been locked up since birth, and a large number of them did not survive to adulthood. Even those who were lucky enough to survive to adulthood would be imprisoned by the guards at any time for various reasons.

Execution?

That kind of thing, every time she thinks about it, makes Kelly gnash her teeth with hatred, so of course she will not sympathize with the so-called legitimate government of the Tianshe people, and she never thinks that Annie is blatantly using force to save them and disrupt the entire planet.

Something is wrong.

"that is!"

|???ω??)??

"Those bad guys just deserve to be beaten. If we don't beat them painfully and severely this time, then they will dare to do it next time!"

(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~

Anne first turned back to glare at Captain Ed and echoed Aunt Kelly's words, then turned her head disdainfully, continued to scroll through Gordon's interface, and listed all the things on the ground of the star that day.

The information was placed on the bridge porthole interface and browsed.

"..."

Ed smiled coquettishly and didn't say much. He just watched with the others the news about the latest situation on the planet's surface that Anne released.

"etc!"

"I've always been a little weird..."

"Where did the Tianshe star opposition, I mean, the advanced weapons in the hands of the revolutionary armed forces come from?"

"What's it called?"

Suddenly, Ed noticed a certain screen that Annie had browsed, and hurriedly used his captain authority to intercept it before Annie closed it, zoomed in and asked.

"This..."

"It seems to be called..."

"Stap gun?"

Gordon looked at it, then answered uncertainly.

"right!"

"It's the nail gun!"

First he exclaimed in surprise, and then Ed asked with some confusion:

"That thing is really too much. It can even shoot through tanks and armored vehicles, and it can also shoot down airplanes. It has a large ammunition load and a long range. If it weren't for the effects of gravity and atmospheric resistance, I think they would all be able to shoot down.

Can you take down our Orville?"

"That's obviously a proper interstellar weapon!"

"Where did they get it from? Considering their technological level, it seems they haven't reached that level yet, right?"

Ed has struggled with this issue for a long time.

Previously, because the fighting situation on the ground was getting intense, and he sympathized with the persecuted people in his heart, that is, those 'Kiryaks', he did not take any more care. Now that the dust has settled, he must ask

Just ask.

"this……"

"Feel sorry!"

"Captain, we don't know either."

"Well."

"I've always felt a little weird too!"

"What do you think..."

"Our Orville has been keeping an eye on the orbit, and we haven't seen any interstellar pirates or smugglers secretly smuggling weapons to them?"

"smuggling?"

"There is absolutely no way it was smuggled in. We have been guarding here all the time. That's impossible!"

"that is!"

"Besides, smuggling weapons to a primitive primitive civilization that has just reached the door of interstellar navigation is a serious crime. Which smuggler is crazy?"

"It shouldn't be smuggling!"

"Look, this weapon called a 'staple gun' does not have any data in the database of our Planetary Alliance. I am sure of this!"

"Did the opposition really develop it themselves and only secretly bring it out now?"

"possible!"

"But it's unlikely?"

"..."

As Ed's words fell, everyone on the bridge, who were also a little confused about the issue, naturally began to discuss it in low voices.

In the end, the result of the discussion will naturally be fruitless, unless they dare to defy the laws of the Planetary Alliance again and send people to the surface of the planet to directly interrogate the leaders of the opposition. Otherwise, I am afraid that the answer will never be known.

Already.

"!

"

"Annie!"

"It couldn't have been you, right?"

For a long time, Ed, who was puzzled like everyone else, suddenly turned his head and saw a troublesome little girl on the side who liked to do whatever he wanted and seemed to have something wrong with her expression at this time. Then, he had an idea and subconsciously

He blurted out and asked.

"??"

(???.???)????

"Uncle Ed, he seems to be on the Orville all the time..."

(??ω???‖)?

Annie blinked her eyes, and then said innocently.

However, if Ed listened carefully, it would not be difficult to find out: Although Anne did not directly admit that she did it, she did not deny that she did not do it. She just stated that she had been on the ship and

Still using that confused tone?

(…)

(●￣?￣●)

"Too!"

"I have completely forgotten about this."

Ed nodded. Although Ed knew that Annie could take out a lot of things from her pockets, he didn't quite believe that it would be to the extent of taking out the weapons and ammunition that would arm tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of militants. Plus, he just

It was just a casual question, so I didn’t go into it further.

"alright!"

"After more than twenty days, the matter has come to an end. The people of Tianshexing are finally willing to change the stupid and ignorant laws and moral standards."

"The existence of those opposition groups should deter those stupid officials from causing trouble anymore. It's time for us to leave."

After seeing enough of the news that Annie picked up casually, Kelly felt a little tired and clapped her hands and suggested.

"Well, it is indeed!"

"We have been here for almost a month, and I have been scolded for nearly a month. Now it is really time to leave."

Nodding, Ed, who felt a little exhausted mentally and physically, agreed to the proposal of his first mate's ex-wife.

"correct."

"Annie, if they are unwilling to change, you won't really blow up the planet, right?"

Thinking of something, Ed still asked worriedly.

He was really worried. After all, Anne had already bombed a planet. Although it was just a lifeless planet, from the beginning of the Calivans to the previous Navarians and Bridians, and then to

As a member of Tianshe Star, this is the third time that Anne has threatened others with words and actions like blowing up the planet whenever she disagrees.

She has also detonated several of the 'Planet Destroyers' that were thrown out, which are said to have a yield of tens of billions and can successfully detonate star cores. Therefore, if Ed was not worried before, it would definitely be impossible.

!

"Um……"

(′???`)

"you guess?"

(゜▽＾*)

Anne said playfully, without answering directly.

(…)

(●￣?￣●)

(Tibbers, who was hung by Annie's waist, knew that there was actually nothing to guess. The bad little master of his family had many ways to make things develop and proceed according to her wishes. For example, the current Tianshe

Star, it has only been twenty days, and the military's army has been beaten to the point of collapse by the opposition. If there is no peace talks, it believes that the war on that planet will be over before the one-month time limit comes.

The dust has basically settled. When the time comes, the opposition will definitely announce the 'reform' decision on time. That is not a big problem.)

"..."

"..."

After hearing Annie's answer, Ed and Kelly looked at each other, and then both saw a trace of helplessness and happiness in each other's eyes.

"alright!"

"Anyway, the worst thing hasn't happened, it's time for us to go!"

"Gordon!"

"Set a course and let's get out of here."

After heaving a sigh of relief, thinking carefully and making sure that things on this planet had basically settled, Ed ordered the helmsman Gordon.

"clear!"

"Start setting course!"

"Prepare to enter quantum voyage!"

Gordon didn't hesitate and quickly set the course, allowing the Orville to start its engines and enter a quantum navigation attitude, and soon disappeared from this bad planet that made them unhappy and somewhat ridiculous.

"Great, I can finally have a rest."

"correct!"

"Annie, Claire said in the morning that there will be a piano concert in the evening and Tai will perform on stage. Do you want to give it a try?"

Thinking of something Claire said this morning, Ed suddenly asked Anne who was about to leave the bridge and no longer compete with him for the position.

"try what?"

く(＾_?)ゝ

Obviously, Anne was not listening carefully to what a certain idiot uncle was saying. As for what she was thinking, I am afraid only she herself knows?

"music performance!"

"That means playing the piano!"

"When Tai will perform on stage, will it be some kind of small adjustment before the symphony concert?"

"If you want to participate, we are all happy to listen to you play."

Ed asked expectantly.

"Piano?"

(゜-゜)

"Um……"

(ー`′ー)

Anne instantly frowned with her cute little brows.

Because, she suddenly remembered the days when she first went to Earth. At that time, she seemed to have played that kind of thing. It seemed that she got a lot of good reviews, and she even gained a little fan girl classmate?

"have no idea……"

(′Д｀)

"Let's see what happens then!"

?(?^o^?)?

At first, Annie grinned uninterestedly, but soon, Anne reluctantly gave an uncertain answer.

After all, it was held in the evening, and she didn't know if she would go, but if it was in the morning, it would definitely be a no-brainer, because she would definitely stay in bed!

(…)

(●￣?￣●)

"I won't tell you anymore!"

(lll￢▽￢)

"goodbye!"

-=????=?????(?)?

Then, seeing that there seemed to be nothing interesting here on the bridge, Annie curled her lips, turned around and walked out.

The Orville will go on a long quantum voyage next, and nothing interesting will happen during it, so Anne has no interest in staying here any longer.

"captain?"

"I think it's best not to let Anne try it!"

After Anne left the bridge, Gordon suddenly interjected this sentence out of nowhere.

"??"

"Why?"

"Any questions?"

"Is it possible that she will blow up the piano?"

Ed raised his head and looked at Gordon, who was busy on the console behind his back, strangely, and then joked with a smile.

"no!"

"only……"

"I have a very bad feeling"

Gordon still spoke without looking back.

"You mean..."

"She plays the piano very poorly. Are you worried that she will get hit and become angry?"

"Then……"

"Will you play pranks on us, such as throwing firecrackers under the bed while everyone is sleeping?"

Ed asked carefully, and said that if that was really the case, it would indeed be a terrible thing.

"no!"

"On the contrary, I'm worried that Tai will be hit?"

What surprised both Ed and Kelly, who was listening to the conversation between the two, was that Gordon gave such an answer.

"this!"

"Do you have any evidence?"

"or it could be!"

"Did you hear Annie play?"

As he pondered, Ed thought about it for a while, and then cautiously asked for confirmation.

"No!"

Gordon shook his head and did not give any explanation.

"That……"

"Does anyone else have it?"

So, as a last resort, Ed had no choice but to ask the other officers on the bridge.

After all, we have now entered quantum navigation, everyone is quite free, and he saw that they were all eavesdropping, so he might as well have a casual chat.

"have no idea……"

"I've never seen her play!"

"Me too."

"Speaking of which, I seem to have only seen her staying in the simulation entertainment room No. 1 recently. I don't know how many of the 9,999 classic games she has played?"

"ha!"

"Don't worry, even if you play one a day, it will be enough for her to play for at least ten years!"

"etc!"

"I remember it was ninety-nine thousand and ninety-nine, right?"

"??"

"Are there that many?"

"have no idea……"

"Let's go take a look next time. Anyway, the captain bought it. Can we share it too?"

"good idea!"

"..."

Just like that, as the topic was raised, everyone in the bridge began to discuss the topics that everyone liked.

"captain."

"I found that Anne's body and brain are very well coordinated, exceeding the limits of all living things I know, including you."

"So, in theory, the little game of 'playing the piano' shouldn't be a problem for her."

While everyone in the bridge was chatting casually, the robot Isaac suddenly turned towards Ed and gave his fair judgment to Anne.

"Yeah?"

"That's not what I thought!"

"Isaac..."

"Music requires talent, not only physical coordination, but also emotional integration?"

"unfortunately!"

"According to my observation, Annie shouldn't be very good at that kind of thing?"

"Her personality is too lively and lively to sit down and study seriously,"

Ed smiled and expressed his disagreement.

"I agree!"

"Fighting, playing games, playing pranks, etc..."

"Annie is certainly the well-deserved number one!"

"But as for music, I haven't seen any signs that she is very good at it?"

Seeing that everyone was chatting happily, the first mate Kelly on the side also interrupted and shared her views and certain opinions with a smile.

"or……"

"When are we going to get her on stage?"

"ah?"

"Don't, that's Tai's solo, don't mess it up then, be careful of Claire causing trouble for you!"

"??"

"Gordon, when did you become so timid?"

"Am I timid?"

"No!"

"That's not cowardice!"

"I was being cautious!"

"Let me tell you, you'd better not treat Anne with common sense, it will definitely not lead to good results!"

"She's a freak!"

"Gordon!"

"It's a good thing she's not here, otherwise you would have been beaten!"

"No! No! No!"

"It may not happen if you get beaten, but it's very possible to wake up and find a few extra tails or hair all over your body!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"It reminds me of Petrus's beard."

"??"

"Everyone!"

“What’s wrong with my beard?”

"..."

In this way, idle time is idle, and the time to get off work is indeed early, so everyone on the bridge started chatting in the bridge, just chatting and passing the time in a boring way.

Waiting to get off work.
