The rumor that Jian Shui'er was a jinx had been around for a long time. It was not known whether it was a conclusion made by some bored people in the Federation or by friends who could not find anything exciting on the Internet. All in all, from the assassination in the Linhai Prefecture Gymnasium to the terrorist attack in the Huanshan Four Prefectures Concert, whenever Jian Shui 'er spoke, countless innocent people would lose their lives. Although the number of times wasn't many, the impact was too great and too vile.
Everyone knew that these were all dirty things done by Senator Medellin and had nothing to do with Jian Shui'er. However, the Federation was too big, and there was no lack of space for rumors to grow. There would always be people who would link the deaths and injuries of innocent people to Jian Shui'er. Although there were not many, it was like someone throwing a piece of rat feces into a pot of plain porridge. It would not stink, but it would be enough to make one choke.
A national idol girl who was popular with hundreds of millions of citizens suddenly had a dark aura around her. This national idol must be under a lot of mental pressure. In the past year and a half, she had disappeared from public view, which was more or less related to these rumors.
Xu Le knew how to answer. He belonged to another line of people involved, so naturally, he would not believe these nonsense. However, he did not know how to comfort the young idol sitting behind him. Although he had met and talked to her before, and even received her selfless help twice, they were just passers-by after all. Now, he was a bodyguard, and Jian Shui'er was the object of his protection.
The motorcade drove into the Federal military space base. Through the sliding open electrically controlled alloy door, they drove directly onto the tarmac. Looking at the spaceship in the distance that was getting closer and closer, Xu Le narrowed his eyes. The dense light spots flashing on the vehicle radar made him feel a little uncomfortable.
There were no military flags fluttering in the air, no ceremonies and music, but there was still a sea of people. They were not the TV viewers in the Federation who adored Jian Shui'er, but the officers and ordinary soldiers in the military base. It wasn't until he saw the dense crowd around the tarmac with his own eyes that Xu Le truly felt Jian Shui 'er's influence in the Federation.
Back then, no, until now, he had always been Jian Shui'er's most ardent fan. But when he saw the excited faces of those officers and soldiers, he still felt that it was somewhat inconceivable.
The equipment required for the performance, as well as the seven sets of security equipment, were delivered to the belly of the spaceship through the load-bearing lift at the back of the spaceship. When all the preparations were done, Xu Le heard Bai Yulan's confirmation in his earpiece. He turned around and said to Jian Shui'er, "You may board the spaceship now."
The side door of the black car opened. Under the cover of the wall of people, Jian Shui'er, who was wearing a hoodie and full body sportswear, quietly left the black car like an ordinary girl next door. She came to the bulletproof Silver Fox car and prepared to board the ship.
Xu Le followed her silently, keeping a distance of about half a meter. Originally, Jian Shui'er should have boarded the spaceship through the automatic control belt without anyone noticing. However, to everyone's surprise...
This national idol suddenly turned her head and gently lifted the hood of her sportswear, revealing a touch of fresh and bright purple short hair. Standing on the automatic control belt, she turned around and waved at the officers and soldiers in the military base who were looking forward to her arrival.
The base, which was supposed to be empty but seemed incomparably lively today, suddenly fell silent. Then, a burst of extremely enthusiastic cheers, applause, cheers, and whistles erupted. These sounds intertwined together, forming a chaotic but pleasing accompaniment.

Purple was a very bright and eye-catching color. It was very abrupt. Some scientists had once studied that the color of food that humans could not adapt to was purple. Therefore, this color did not give people a sense of intimacy. There was no star in the universe who dared to dye their hair purple, except for her...
Only Jian Shui'er herself had that kind of fresh, charming, and lovely youthful aura that was like a new willow by the riverside, could make this purple color the most conspicuous and even the most dazzling embellishment. It was engraved in everyone's heart and could not be forgotten at any time.
Xu Le wore sunglasses and silently looked at the national idol standing on the automatic control belt with a smile on her face. In his heart, he thought of the long paragraph of somewhat complicated words in front of him. Although this clearly violated the provisions of the safety control manual, he could not and did not want to stop this national idol from doing this slightly crazy thing.
Because Jian Shui'er, who was standing on the automatic control belt, was facing the wind and gently waving her hand. Because the touch of purple in the autumn wind was moving, because the pair of calves exposed outside the sportswear was seductive, because he... had been incomparably fond and even infatuated with her since he was very young. Although this touch of purple was not on the TV screen but in front of his eyes, the feeling was still the same and had not faded.
...
...
This time, Jian Shui'er went to the front line of the West Woods to hold a concert called "Victory". The main purpose was naturally to comfort those brave soldiers who had bravely resisted the invasion of the Empire but had not returned home for a long time. Many famous artists in the Federation had done this kind of gesture of appreciation for the military, but it was the first time that a big star like Jian Shui'er had personally gone.
In fact, the Federation media, the Performing Arts Association, and those famous stars in their respective fields had long admitted that the stars in this universe had always been divided into two classes. One class was Jian Shui'er, and the rest... were the rest. This was a strange flower created by the love of the Federation's citizens and the legendary history. No one could deny this.
The Ministry of National Defense of course welcomed this kind of thing with both hands. Moreover, the planet Jian Shui'er was going to was still in a tug-of-war between the Federation and the Empire. It was an absolutely dangerous fire zone. In addition to the welcome, the Federal military was also infinitely grateful.
The spaceship that the preparation team of the Victory Concert took belonged to the first-class military spaceship of the Federal Fleet. It did not need to go through the old moon base or space station for conversion or mending. It directly broke through the atmosphere and the gravitational force of S1. Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes and cameras, it left a trail of fog that gradually disappeared before people's eyes. It flew into the vast universe that was sometimes blue and sometimes dark.
...
...
The spaceship was like a ghost, quietly breaking through the barriers of space and gliding into the distance between the stars in the sky. In fact, all spacecrafts could give the audience a ghostly feeling if they were lucky enough to witness them.
Xu Le was no longer the orphan who could not step out of the Bell Tower Street. He had lost most of his interest in this silent voyage. He only felt that it was boring. He stood silently outside a cabin door, narrowed his eyes and watched the movements around him. He silently calculated the time it would take to reach the West Woods.
The military spaceship that belonged to the Federal Fleet was not luxurious, but the Ministry of National Defense still tried its best to provide convenience to the Victory Concert team. This was the second floor of the spaceship. Except for the upper floor of the spaceship control hall, it was the safest and most core area.
The armed personnel of Group 7 had been distributed to all the key areas, and together with the control officer on the spaceship, they carried out dual control. Jian Shui'er's team of as many as 80 people lived on the lower floor. Only a few people had the authority to enter the core area of this floor. Xu Le was undoubtedly one of them.
Although he was lightly ridiculed by the national idol girl in the car, he still wore the pair of sunglasses that he brought back from the base. He looked at the glimmering stars outside the porthole with a blank expression. No one knew what he was thinking.
Suddenly, the phone in his arms rang. He picked up the phone and heard the clear voice of little watermelon. "Brother Xu Le, I heard that you are going to the West Woods?"
"Yes, I am on the spaceship now."
On the other end of the phone, little watermelon did not show much emotion. She just muttered in a childish tone, "I haven't been back to my hometown for a long time. Brother Xu Le, when you reach the West Woods, remember to go to No. 36, Latitude 2 District. That is my home. I have a little white rabbit. I don't know if it has gained weight now. Help me say hello to it."
Listening to this cute request, Xu Le smiled and agreed. He then said a few words and hung up the phone. Just as he hung up the phone, the heavy alloy cabin door behind him suddenly opened from the inside. A faint blue light flashed through the surface of his sunglasses.
He slowly narrowed his eyes and looked at the purple-haired girl by the floor-to-ceiling window in the cabin. The national idol bathed in the starlight, and he suddenly remembered the first time he saw little watermelon on the Ancient Bell three years ago.
Sister Tong walked out of the cabin with a melancholy expression. When she saw Xu Le standing outside the door, she was slightly startled. She bowed her head to signal him and turned to leave. She did not seem to care that Xu Le was interacting with her Miss.
"Come in. I have something to ask you."
The purple-haired girl in the cabin did not look back. She seemed to know that someone was standing outside the door and said softly.
Xu Le was slightly startled. He did not know if this sentence was directed at him. After hesitating for a moment, he finally walked in. The heavy alloy door slowly closed behind him.
Jian Shui'er, who was in a private safe space, was not like the national idol that people imagined or saw on TV. At least, she was not dressed like that.
She had already taken off the girl-next-door's full-body sports coat. In the warm environment of the spaceship, she wore a knitted hemp shirt. The fabric was very loose and casual, covering the young girl's body, but it couldn't cover her bare legs and the pair of soft white cotton socks on her feet.
She had been kneeling on the chair, holding her chin and quietly looking at the stars outside the floor-to-ceiling window. The faint silver light of the stars shone through the window, gently caressing her hair, clothes, and every curve of her youthful body. It was like a moonlight halo.
Xu Le silently walked three meters behind her and stopped. The scene in front of him was like an oil painting. The girl was the protagonist in the oil painting. Although she did not deliberately charm anyone, she was destined to charm the world. For him, the visual impact of this close distance made him not dare to take another step forward.
The national idol in the starlight slowly turned around after a long silence. She looked at Xu Le seriously and slightly angrily said,
