Wu Jin stood in the smoke shrouded ruins, his back against a collapsed half wall of the coffee shop. His dark brown goggles covered half his face. One half of his arm was bandaged, and he wore open fingered sniper gloves around his wrists.

Wu Jin slowly raised his hand and formed a gun with his hand. He curved his lips.

Sniped at their hearts.

The main melody began at this time, and four teammates appeared together behind him. The vocalist took over Wu Jin’s c-position, and the smoke dispersed under the wind blower. The group’s knife dance was sharp and precise beneath the strong lights.

Around Wei Shi, countless little girls were screaming shrilly, “So cool aooooo––”

Wu Jin’s dance style switched from house to popping.

The accompanying music with the complicated sounds cut out was now dominated by the heavy drums. Wu Jin finally stood in the deputy-c position after several position changes. Each time he struck a pose, it was accompanied by the sound of a gunshot, and the muscles of the youth beneath the camera seemed to be guided by an electric current. His strong explosive force was like a spark that could practically be seen in the audience’s vision.

Wu Jin’s actions were too on point. His control over his muscles was almost like the gospel of every OCD patient.

He dominated the stage.

Every freeze caused the scene to explode.

The shrill screaming almost drowned out the music. Another vocalist finished singing and returned to the group dance. The deputy lead singer switched places with Wu Jin again, and

Wu Jin now stood in the middle of the stage.

At this time, all the team members were holding guns, arming, loading, and aiming––

Nearby, a little sister abruptly realized, “This is… gun grappling? Gun combat… Krav Maga?! My god––”

The friend beside her was curious, “What, what!”

The little sister’s voice was shaking with excitement, “It’s Krav Maga! I went to the United States for summer vacation, but I couldn’t obtain a certificate. How handsome, ahhhhh! No, wait, do you know how hard it is to integrate this into the choreography! One is a mandatory FBI course, and the other is underground popping. It’s really the limit!”

Her friend was bewildered, “I only know that Little Witch’s aura is so strong! I don’t know why, but––”

The little sister trembled and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, her expression suddenly becoming serious, “I’ll tell you.”

“Little Witch has definitely held a gun before, a real gun. Otherwise, it’s impossible––his standard shooting posture is comparable to our instructors.” Then, she herself was shocked, “CAR? Weaver stance? That back somersault was so handsome––Ahhhhh that kneeling shooting position is so cool wuwuwu I’m in love, I’m in love, what kind of little cutie is this, why is he so good at fighting!”

Towards the end of the song, the rap cut in.

Little Red’s energy shot up to the c-position. The rhythm accelerated, and the special combat team’s ‘enemies’ were finally eliminated. Until the end of the song––

After the shooting, the two trainees who were acting as ‘police’ arrived too late.

The four members of the ‘special combat team’ quickly hid their handguns, except for Wu Jin, who was still facing the entrance of the coffee shop.

The lens zoomed right in, shifting from Wu Jin’s cold sniper goggles to the slightly raised corners of his lips, to his neck and collarbones that were damp with sweat, to his arms––

Wu Jin was dismantling the gun.

A complete and obsolete gun was precisely disassembled piece by piece. The magazine, grip, hammer, trigger, and slide were scattered one by one. The gun barrel was also disassembled.

Wu Jin’s hands were moving fast enough to leave virtual shadows. By the time the two ‘policemen’ appeared, Wu Jin had already tossed a table full of disassembled parts into a flower vase. The sniper goggles were taken off to reveal a pair of soft amber eyes.

The youth slowly pulled out a champagne colored rose from his sleeve and inserted it into the mouth of the vase that had been used to hide the material evidence.

The ‘police’ passed by, shooting Wu Jin a few doubtful glances, and finally turned away.

The group performance for <Special Combat Elite> finally came to an end.

The audience was silent for a few seconds, and then suddenly burst into applause that thundered against the eardrums!

The camera switched to show the three instructors.

The female instructor was dumbstruck. After a long time, she sighed, “A perfect piece of art.”

On the trainee benches, the lead dancer for <The Little Elf Prince> didn’t look happy, but he still clapped with the audience. Beside the female instructor, an instructor who looked like a researcher from the R-Code Base suddenly spoke and said, “Little Witch’s choreography has a very strong personal style that emphasizes explosive power and rhythm. Each team member was also given a long solo. This kind of distribution and focus is still immature, but it’s very lovely.”

“I’ve only seen something similar to it in the <Elf> group.”

The camera swept over to the <Elf> group. The trainee who’d stolen Wu Jin’s choreography suddenly turned pale.

Fortunately, the instructor had only made a passing comment and didn’t remain on the topic.

That person heaved a sigh of relief.

Off-stage.

Wei Shi opened his mobile phone and accepted the 40,000 that the professional fan team manager had sent back, “Boss, just now, the fan count has skyrocketed, and the topic you were talking about has been suppressed. About this&#k2026; we didn’t need to do anything, and we can’t charge you too much for it. Come back for more business next time!”

Wu Jin Global Support Association (2) Station.

The new fans were in high spirits, “What’s the point of such a CP! Reject, reject. The station elder sister doesn’t agree, so mama doesn’t agree either! With this station, Little Witch will surely go further in the future. He has the skills, so he can be more reckless, what about it?!”

Wei Shi casually uploaded a video directly to the support station.

It was the video that ‘Support Station Wei’ had taken of his idol in the film and television base.

The video was a little blurred, but it didn’t stop people from watching it. In theory, most front-line photographers were furtive––but in fact, ever since Wei Shi accepted the position as the martial arts director for the crew next door, the entire crew had been completely won over by him and simply assigned an idle camera to help him take footage of his idol for him.

At the beginning of the video, a trainee was teaching his teammates to shoot, using an incorrect posture. Wu Jin, who’d passed by the window, was stunned and rushed into the room.

Then came the gun grabbing, the switching of teams, and the rapper from the <Elf> team who taught the dance to the new trainee.

The video upload was completed.

On the stage, Wu Jin had just finished his performance. He returned back into his quiet, sitting obediently once again. It was just that his gaze swept over the audience, and it was unknown what he was looking for.

Wei Shi skillfully raised the support card.

“I love Wu Jin”.

The back of Wu Jin’s ears turned red.

In the consciousness communication channel, Arjun howled agin, “Brother Wei, the fluctuations are only 8% away from the threshold. Brother Wei, go––bring Little Witch out––”

Wei Shi grunted in acknowledgement.

He bowed his head to send Wu Jin a message.

Wu Jin took advantage of the camera being focused elsewhere to stealthily take out his mobile phone.

Then, he quickly set it down, looked quietly at the support card and rubbed his face.

The performance lasted for nearly six hours.

By the time Wei Shi re-entered the treatment cabin a mere few minutes later, the consciousness world had already skipped forward to one week later.

The video he’d uploaded previously had fermented, and the mysterious station elder sister for Support Association (2) had quickly been promoted to the altar––

“Immortal station sister ahhhhh, thanking you for the sake of my son wuwu!!! Fortunately, there’s you, big sister, otherwise my son would’ve suffered so much grief!”

“So angry! Is this what the program group is like? This is stealing the fruits of other people’s labor. You can change teams just like that?”

“Holding my Little Witch tight. He choreographed two dances in a week, he must be exhausted wuwu…”

The program group didn’t come out to explain, but they quickly cut out a side clip to clarify the ‘changing of teams’.

The ‘changing teams’ was immediately labelled as ‘for program effect’. The truth that the instructor had discovered was then praised as ‘the program group having never deceived the audience’.

Wei Shi no longer paid attention to this matter.

In the hotel beside the film and television base, Wei Shi took out a fishing rod and threw it directly across the low wall.

Wu Jin was behind the wall singing “Ah, ah, ah~ Oh, oh, oh~” and trying to practice on his own to break through to the high pitched G4. Wei Shi almost thought he’d caught himself a goose from the other side of the wall.

Wu Jin grabbed the empty hook and shook it as though knocking on a beggar’s bowl: Where was his wrap!

Wei Shi: “We’ll go buy it together.”

Wu Jin called out in delight. This time, he jumped out by going directly over the wall.

In the consciousness communication, Arjun reminded him again, “It’s fluctuating again! 4% short. Brother Wei, catch Little Witch! Run out once you catch him––”

After eating the wrap, Wu Jin went back to the program group while Wei Shi looked for a place to go offline.

Wu Jin snuck out his mobile phone and searched: I always dream about kissing a close friend, what to do, could it be that I have improper feelings for a fan…

The first reply: “Wow, does the original poster sleep with fans?”

Wu Jin: “……”

Wu Jin: “!!!” Delete! Delete!

By the time Wei Shi entered the consciousness world again, the timeline had already moved forward by a lot.

It was four weeks away from their public performance. This fast food factory type talent show was ready to quickly determine the positioning of its trainees and send them off to their debuts, then prepare to weed through the next wave of newcomers.

Wu Jin was ranked third in the polls.

The first two had come up with trending topics prior to the final. The one in second place was found to have had a miserable childhood, and the first one had simply come out of the closet.

According to Agent Brother Chen’s words, “If I’d known, we could’ve come out of the closet first.”

Wu Jin trembled and shivered, “… What-what if I’m straight, then what…”

Brother Chen: “Huh? Little Witch, you have to remember, you’re just a trainee with no feelings!”

Along with the frenzied voting for the competition, the trainee support stations were also competing fiercely.

There were flower walls, screen displays, buying search terms on Weibo, public social welfare activities, and an endless stream of exposure activities.

Wei Shi’s Support Association (2) Station had been handed over to the professional fans. Today, they raised money to plant ‘Little Witch trees’ in Northwest China. Tomorrow, they would raise money to help children in Daliang Mountain. They were busy and happy.

However, they were still being criticized by Association (1) for not doing things on a large enough scale.

Wei Shi saw it all.

At night, the stars were spread out all over the sky.

Wu Jin was watering the ‘Little Witch tree’ on the windowsill that his fans had sent over when his eyes suddenly grew wide.

Wu Jin quickly ran down the stairs.

Wei Shi was wearing the same type of clothing he’d worn the first day when they met. A white shirt, leather shoes, and suit trousers, like he was attending an elaborate date.

Wu Jin, who was wearing fluffy white rabbit pajamas that Brother Chen had sent him, emphasizing that it was in line with his character design, “……”

Wei Shi handed him a pair of binoculars and a certificate issued by the XX Astronomy Society.

Wu Jin lifted up the binoculars, and the end of the glass almost stabbed into Wei Shi’s chin.

Wei Shi raised up the small round chin and ordered, “Don’t look at me, look at the stars.”

Wu Jin was obedient, “Ah, which one…”

Wei Shi checked what Wu Jin was looking at with his mobile phone screen, “Left, left again, up.”

Wu Jin was suddenly excited, “The Messier objects? Deep space objects?”

Wei Shi nodded, “Most deep space objects are invisible to the naked eye, and they weren’t discovered until the 18th century, by Messier. The brightest of these is a star-forming region closest to Earth. The Orion Nebula.”

“Messier 42 is essentially a diffuse nebula.”

Wu Jin stared at the nebula.

Wei Shi: “However, humans are still used to calling it a deep space object.”

“Behind the nebula is the Orion system. The first planet with an atmosphere behind the nebula is azure colored, and its geological environment is similar to that of the ancient Archean blue planet.”

Wu Jin was shocked, “You-you-you, how do you know…”

Wei Shi: “I bought the naming rights for this planet. You can help.”

Wu Jin: “!!!”

“The first interstellar voyagers who arrived on this planet named it the Azure Cosmos.” Wei Shi continued.

“On one of the plates, when the surface solidified, a huge gorge was left behind. There’s a city built there with the gorge as a barrier, and there is fog in the city all year round. It’s also known as Floating City.”

Wu Jin felt like he was spinning out of control.

Wei Shi: “That was one of the places where we first met.”

Wu Jin felt like a huge shock had hit his body. Countless memories flew around in his mind, combining with the fragments from the past two months.

Floating City, the Crosson Show, White Moonlight, Wei Shi––

The man bowed his head and shrouded Wu Jin in his shadow. He reached out to take down his binoculars.

“Do you remember.”

Wu Jin looked up.

Wei Shi spoke one word at a time, and his eyes seemed to be full of stars, “Wake up and get the certificate with me. This city will be yours.”

The man pressed Wu Jin up against the wall.

Overhead was the vast nebula.

At the other end of the communication, Researcher Song and Arjun yelled in surprise, “Little Witch’s consciousness is fluctuating! 2% from the threshold… 1%…”

Wei Shi bowed his head and kissed Wu Jin.

The nebula swirled.

Orion was the most dazzling star constellation in the celestial equator. It had once been regarded as the most fabulous cluster of fire, and in the Mesopotamian plains, it was known as the ‘sheep that crossed the sky’, the ‘Shenshui ape’ of China, a gift from the gods of light inAncient Egypt.

On the blue planet of the 21st century, there was singing and dancing.

In the Orion constellation’s Azure Cosmos Floating City, there were more people and more things worth remembering.

His consciousness returned from a faraway place.

Wu Jin gave Wei Shi a heated hug.

Floating City laboratory.

Researcher Song spoke quickly, “The fluctuations have reached the threshold! Take out two nutrient solutions and get ready to pick up Little Witch!”

Juurensha: WS has captured the Little Witch!

xiin: Wei Shi is so romantic. Showing him the planet… *swoon*
