Luo Binhan's life on board began.
He was given a small private room with a bed, storage box, desk, chair and monitor. Luo Binhan initially thought the display was a TV, until Momolo told him it was a communicator.
After opening the display screen, a purple-haired ∈ appeared on the screen. He greeted both men warmly and then asked them if they needed anything.
"Ah, yes! Please bring some food, thank you, please." Momolo said.
∈I immediately agreed, and then asked Momolo whether he preferred pentose sugar or hexose sugar, and what color best stimulates appetite. By the time the food was delivered, their conversation had been dragged all the way to the supernova explosion. Luo Binhan opened the door and took the food from the top of a disk-shaped robot. Momolo turned off the display screen with relief and ran over to eat with Luo Binhan.
The food that arrived was a round cake with a sweet filling that looked like fruit jam. Luo Binhan felt surprised while eating. He imagined that the alien spacecraft should be injected with nutrient solution, or eat compressed food that is simple and easy to store.
Momolo told him that it usually depends on the captain, and the captain of the Silence, Jing Huang, was particularly averse to using nutrient solution injections.
"Mr. Xuanhong is very traditional," Momolo said. "He is very resistant to changing his lifestyle."
"Xuanhong" is another name of Jing Huang. Luo Binhan once heard 0312, the bald Fake, call him this.
So they started talking about Jing Huang.
"Mr. Xuanhong is an amazing person." Momolo said with emotion. "Although he is not good at expressing, as long as you get along with him, you can feel that he has a pure and noble heart under his cold appearance. When he matures more, he will definitely bring more light to the entire universe."
Luo Binhan was stunned when he heard this. He asked tentatively: "Have you ever told him this in person?"
"He said he would kill me." Momolo replied with a wink.
Luo Binhan clapped his thigh in relief: "Yes, yes, this is the living ancestor I know."
After finishing the meal, Luo Binhan remembered that he still brought some cakes that are specialties of Lihai City. He took a package and gave it to Momolo. The young man excitedly said that this was the first time he had received a gift from an alien friend since graduation, and he would definitely cherish it.
Luo Binhan felt something bad. He felt that either there was something wrong with this man, or there was something wrong with everyone on the ship. In order to confirm which one it was, he stopped Momolo from trying to store the bag of specialties from the train station permanently, and then said firmly: "I still have a few bags here, why not share them with the people on the ship?" ?”
Momolo readily agreed. So they left Luo Binhan's private room together and returned to the original rotunda - it was said that that was the bridge, but Luo Binhan didn't see anything similar to a console.
Jing Huang disappeared without a trace, and there were only Yaleriga and a little girl with blond hair sitting in the hall. The girl looked to be eleven years old at most.
Luo Binhan poked Momolo: "Why do you still employ child labor here?"
"Senior Zhouba was brought by Mr. Xuanhong, and he boarded the ship earlier than me." Momolo said with an innocent face.
"Her name is August?"
"Exactly."
"...She is a cannibal native captured by Jing Huang when he was living on an isolated island?"
"what did you say?"
Momolo's innocent eyes were full of doubts. So Luo Binhan decided to be more optimistic: "...Do you have five days and three days off a week here?"
"There are only seven days in a week." Momolo said, "Seven days are a cycle."
Luo Binhan was angry: "Then what is her name?"
They came together on Saturday. At this time Luo Binhan saw her appearance clearly. She has blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a navy-style dress and sandals, and a pufferfish hairpin with a bulging belly. That hairpin made Luo Binhan feel mysterious.
"Little girl," he said with a smile, "do you want big brother's snacks?"
Zhouba raised his head, looked at him with innocent and clear blue eyes, then stretched out his arms and said: "Brother, hug."
Luo Binhan shrank behind Momoluo in horror: "Does she want to strangle me to death? Does she have tentacles under her skirt?"
Momolo smiled and pulled him out from behind, took a bag of pastries, knelt down and handed it to Zhou Ba and said, "Senior, this is a specialty of Mr. Luo's hometown."
Saturday happily took the bag, tore open the package and ate it. Luo Binhan watched her every move closely, she looked no different from an ordinary child.
Jing Huang appeared during the middle of eating on Saturday. He floated down from the top of the rotunda, walking unsteadily like Luo Binhan when he got up early on the first day of school.
"Jalai," he said expressionlessly, "where are you?"
"Continuous tunneling, Captain. We have just escaped from the trap zone and are still six star layers away from the maximum border."
"Is it all the rational belt?"
"Old maps show that they are all rational zones."
Jing Huang made a sound and said, "Then I will continue to sleep."
"Why don't you sleep with me!" Luo Binhan rushed over and grabbed his hair, "You kidnapped me just because you disagreed! Tell me, where is your enemy?"
Jing Huang's hair was pulled straight up. He said with an unhappy face: "You don't know."
"Nonsense, of course I don't know them! What if they killed my family?
"They won't," Jing Huang said, "because I don't care about your family."
"What about Zhou Yu? Didn't you also stay at Zhou Yu's house for a few days?"
Jing Huang impatiently opened his hand: "You don't have to worry about him, you can't kill anyone."
"Hey, you guys are quite principled." Luo Binhan said, "Why don't you kill the doctor when the two armies are fighting?"
Jing Huang didn't talk to him anymore, but kicked Momoluo with his foot: "Don't shine anymore, it will hurt my eyes."
Momolo apologized profusely, and the white light around him dimmed a lot. He smiled and said, "Mr. Xuanhong looks very energetic today!"
"Go away." Jing Huang replied with a gloomy face.
At this time Zhouba jumped off the chair and ran to Jing Huang's side. She raised the cake and asked, "Jing, Jing, do you want to eat it?"
"No," Jing Huang said, "go away, don't grab my clothes."
Zhou Ba opened his arms without hearing anything: "Jing, give me a hug."
Jing Huang turned around and ran away.
The scene immediately fell into chaos. Jing Huang walked quickly around the rotunda, while Zhou Ba chased him relentlessly to hug him. Along the way, both of them kept repeating their lines.
Momolo looked at this scene with a smile and sighed with satisfaction: "We all have such a good relationship..."
Luo Binhan felt his head feel dizzy. In order to relieve this feeling, he sat on a soft chair, took out a flower from the water bottle and bit it. He quickly spat out the flower - which was really just an ornamental plant - and started screaming in his mouth.
There is a bookshelf to the right of the water bottle. Luo Binhan glanced over casually and saw a row of book titles in the middle. When he saw those words, the corresponding translation automatically popped into his head:
"The Crying Duranders: The Disappearance of the Empire Sugar House"
"Swimming Fish and Flying Birds - A Comparison of Similarities and Differences of the Two Types of Combination Phenomenon in Folklore of Various Star Realms"
"A Brief History of the Evolution of Alliance Aviation—A Holistic Study and Future Development Forecast Based on the Origin Civilization of the Top Ten People"
"The Hominids Who Landed on the Moon: Stone Age Space Monkeys on a Rocky Planet"
"How to die calmly in a second-class civilized world"
"Baitou Miao Miao teaches you to travel around the upside down star"
Luo Binhan stared at these book titles for a while, then rubbed his head vigorously.
"I'm fucking crazy," he said to himself.
He moved his gaze to the top shelf of the bookshelf. The books there looked thinner and more plain, like the medical journals that Zhou Yu's family subscribed to on a monthly basis.
The titles of the first five books are: "Xunqu", "Jingwei", "Starlight Realm", "Where the Water Goes", and "Appreciation of Famous Ships".
Luo Binhan didn't know what these books were about, but at least their titles were touchingly simple. He picked up the "Xunqu" that was closest to him.
When he opened the book, he found that it was very different from what he had imagined. The paper is as smooth as plastic, and the words wriggle under the page like magnetic particles. After he stared at the page for a few seconds, the text on it changed into Chinese that he was all too familiar with.
Luo Binhan looked at the message on the back of the cover:
——When the darkness had not yet melted, he walked to the sky and used this branch to steal the Star-Burning Fire.
