Chapter 515

The voice echoed in the void.It is laughing, like a pot of boiling water that is bubbling.Even in a vacuum devoid of medium, it somehow communicated the disturbing vibrations of matter to its intended audience.

"Come on." Its childlike voice filled the bridge room. "Come on, you little man."

Yale Liga slightly pushed away the visual observer on her right eye, and used her naked eyes to observe the reaction of another member of the spaceship to this situation.Jing Huang—whose name he uttered at a meal sometime after they had been together for about five hundred hours and asked her to use it instead of “Ji Cangyu”—was gloomyly holding an up-to-date appointment Legal social learning machine.It was a matching gift for the latest check-in event of the hairy belly Tuntunmencheng branch. Even though they didn't have time to go to the fast food restaurant that Yale Liga reserved, she bought one separately through online shopping.

She made the necessary cover-ups, such as throwing away the box with the shiny chips and gems on it (buying the dragon version may not be the best choice), and scraping off the "Press the button lol" engraved on the machine's casing. ", repainted as "Socialization Guidance Instrument".

Her repackaging strategy was so successful that even after Jing Huang learned to watch entertainment programs, the all-pervasive promotional advertisements of the hairy belly still didn't arouse any suspicion in him.According to Yale Liga's observations, her traveling companion, Gu Yuelu, has a very vague concept of commercial advertisements, and sometimes even can't tell the difference between advertisements and entertainment programs, but Yale Liga doesn't think it's all his fault. .Even she has to admit that the advertising style of the hairy stomach is gradually developing in the direction of the series recently.She also found Joan to have an odd misconception, which tends to treat all entertainment as if something really happened, or at least there must be a real prototype.

That concept works in some cases.When she found a video of a stage play based on the Eternal Light Clan, Jing Huang could easily understand the relationship between actors and characters. He knew that the Eternal Light Clan did exist, and he also understood that the actors were not actually the real Eternal Light Clan.Yet when Allerica showed him a comedy featuring a purely fictional race, Joan began to ask her why the show existed.That doesn't mean he doesn't understand how photon players and recorders work, he has a good sensibility for art or interpretation, too.Allerica realized that he just didn't understand "fiction," or "meaningless fantasies."She had heard that certain highly closed intellectual civilizations would display such thinking characteristics, but for such a typical and rare ancient law like his, that was a rather weird stance.

She was gradually teaching him about it.At first, it was just a reward for being a free passenger, Jing Huang didn't think she would stay on the ship for a long time, and she herself didn't have a clear plan.However, when thousands of hours passed, Yareriga found that instead of drafting a farewell letter, she had already considered whether to add some new equipment to the ship.She wants to give the bridge room a total modernization, at least introducing parts-free visualization and an intelligent driving system.

Now she has sufficient position and qualifications to do this: after a certain radiator failure, Jing Huang sullenly handed over the pilotship to her, and since then this ship has her biological information records.At the same time, she also got the right to comb hair and order food, but the latter two didn't seem to frustrate Jing Huang too much, and it can even be said that she was quite obedient.From this, Allerica perceived that he had previously led a cared-for life.He has not wandered among the stars for a long time, but has just arrived in a strange new environment.

But why is he adrift now?Yale Liga asked tactfully, but saw that the other party was silent.But she remembered the things that had happened when they met, and the girl in black who had killed the Aconitum.She realized that something very unusual was brewing, and that perhaps it would bring unspeakable danger.She secretly observed the Silence's irregular sailing route, which seemed to be determined by the owner's fickleness, as well as the few words that Jing Huang leaked from her mouth very occasionally, and finally decided that Jing Huang was looking for someone. or some kind of person.He is always wandering in the trap belts in various star worlds, staying on every planet with strange rumors or phenomena.

Most of these visits and explorations were unremarkable, and a few moments brought them more or less trouble.They once encountered an extremely vile mad mage who loved to cause all kinds of hot weapon accidents, and even caused damage to Yale Liga's own transformation. In the end, she had to give the mage a long kiss, Asked him to share his painful memories, and took some knowledge about the construction of weapons along the way.Another time they ran into a plague spreading across the planet, which was ultimately determined to be nothing more than a genocide and colonization operation with nanobots at its core.Even though it was not a humane act, Yale Liga was secretly surprised by Jing Juan's fury.

These two incidents gave Yale Liga a general basis for assessing risks, and made her understand that if Jing Juan was still searching for his target—a certain kind of person, who is related to technology, disasters, and death—they would be in danger for a long time. And steadily meet trouble, or should I say run towards trouble.Under this normal level of risk, she inevitably overlooked some smaller and trivial daily problems, and that was the fuse that led them to their later difficulties.When they were stranded in a certain trap zone on the edge of Chonghong Township and Shenguang Realm, they encountered a large group of spaceships secretly docked underground, as well as the local aborigines who were enslaved by them.When they saw the goods carefully handled and processed by the slaves, Jing Huang showed his innocence and inexplicability as Gu Yuelu, but Yale Liga immediately recognized that it was an illegal sugar smuggling organization.Since the establishment of the first sugar city, such gangs have proliferated in the alliance. They can not only make considerable profits, but also receive much lighter sentences than other counterparts when they are caught-but not including those special sugar with ether elements. kind.

They ruled out some resistance, went into the spaceship warehouse and made a simple investigation and visit, and determined that there was only monotonous and ordinary concentrated sugar in it.Yale Liga took this opportunity to explain sugar, Sugar City and the feelings they bring to carbon-based creatures to Jing Juan. During the whole process, Jing Juan listened politely as usual, but showed a clear interest muffled.Yale Liga knew that there was no one he was looking for here.

She roughly explained the reaction principle of concentrated sugar, Jing Huang listened without blinking, it was difficult to judge whether he could understand the professional vocabulary she used.Then he pointed to the dozens of tons of wallboard xylose stored in the iron box, and asked her if they were all edible.Before Yale Liga had time to emphasize to him the obvious difference between "is sugar" and "edible", the head of the base came with an entire armed team.He is a male Hunwo, and when he sees Allerica, he warmly but firmly invites them to stay.Although he can be said to be a man with a more unique male charm, the unique body odor and poor speech of the Huanwo people made Yale Liga reject him.And he became angry from embarrassment, which was not surprising to Yale Liga.She was ready to fight, but Jing Huang took the initiative to stand up and said something that surprised the audience.

"How to buy?" he asked.

The leader looked dazed.Then Jing Huang said again, "Sugar."

After a period of time after the incident, Yale Liga understood what happened at that time through repeated memories.She realized that, because of the certain life that Jing Juan was used to living without production and exchange, his understanding of how to obtain materials was somewhat dogmatic, if not wrong.He had seen Yareriga spend money on things, so he thought that since he was in a strange place, he could make a transaction of any size on any occasion, even if it was a gold coin in the smuggler's lair. A two-pound block of condensed wallboard sugar.What use would he want this?Afterwards, Yareriga also saw the answer with her own eyes.But at the time, when the wrong conversation happened, she didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.When the chief figured out what Jing Juan wanted to trade, he and his men laughed and declared contemptuously that it was impossible.

"Money isn't the rule here, kid," he said haughtily and rudely. "If you want something, take it. Money, that's just a facade, and taking it is our rule. I think What's on it is mine."

This speech full of Huanwo ethnic characteristics did not impress Yale Liga, but it seemed that Jing Huang was very surprised.He turned his head and looked at Yale Liga, asking for her additional opinion.It should have been a good time for education, but Yale Lika was a little slack.She actually nodded, intending to say that Huanwo people are generally like this, but Jing Huang had a biased interpretation.He hesitated, hesitated, lowered his head in thought, and looked at the slaves who were hanged in the corner for punishment.

"This is my territory." The leader said threateningly, "You can only follow my rules."

"...It's also possible." Jing Huang said.

In any case, this matter finally allowed Jing Huang to get the wallboard candy he was looking for.Allerica was busy arranging and directing the slaves who had lost their masters. When she returned, she only saw Jing Juan swallowed the last piece of wall board and gave a regrettable evaluation—it was unpalatable.She was very amused by the disappointment and dissatisfaction of him struggling to eat candy, and couldn't help finding some more suitable snack lollipops for him, so she missed the opportunity of education again.After a long time, she finally discovered the truth that Jing Huang learned in this matter: money is used for buying and selling, but sugar is bought by robbing.
