Is the food of people on earth actually like this?
Yu Mingshu gnawed on the sandwich and felt the sweet and salty taste on his tongue. He discovered that the people on earth were more playful than the people on Batuu.
Because they are originally spiritual bodies, they do not have high requirements for food, and they will not add taste buds to themselves when they condense into entities. You know, in an environment where time is of the essence, eating seems to have become a time-wasting entertainment. Generally, they can drink nutritional supplements for three days without replenishing energy, and their bodies are completely different from those on earth who need three meals a day. different.
Yu Mingshu was eating happily in the cafeteria. Some curious children hid behind the pillars and watched Yu Mingshu eating a very ordinary sandwich with relish. Although they are an orphanage, the food they eat is definitely not as good as that of outside families, but it is not bad. However, the sandwiches in their orphanage have no meat, only ordinary vegetables and tomatoes inside, and the bread on the outside is also semi-hard, which is very good. Tasty stuff.
It's not lunch time. There are indeed only sandwiches left in the morning in the cafeteria, but they can chew them one bite at a time and eat them to make the other party feel good. The children began to wonder whether Teacher Mu had given Yu Mingshu special privileges, such as... Inside There is meat.
After Yu Mingshu finished his last bite, the hunger he felt just now disappeared.
"Kid, where is your mother? Why are you here alone?" Teacher Mu had been waiting for Yu Mingshu to finish eating. Now that Yu Mingshu had some time to talk, she asked Yu Mingshu why he came here.
Yu Mingshu was not sure about all the qualities of people on earth, but based on the fact that Teacher Mu could make him eat well, Yu Mingshu believed that Teacher Mu was a good person, so he chose to give the reason that should make the other party sympathize: "My mother, take me from I was dropped from a very high place, I was very scared, I survived, I was hungry, so I came here.”
The language of people on earth is relatively complex. After Yu Mingshu finished speaking a long sentence for the first time, he knew that he should really study more. It would not work to rely on homology all the time. People in the Batu Galaxy can basically know what the other person wants to express with just one sound wave, and there are basically not so many words. For the sake of efficiency, they don't like to mince words when speaking. However, less than a day after waking up, Yu Mingshu felt that the people on earth might not like it. Straight line explanation, so he chose to answer like this instead of saying:
I am a superpower experiment. After being stolen and thrown out by my biological mother, I successfully escaped on my own strength. I chose this place purposefully because I was hungry.
Although Yu Mingshu knew that what he said might not be clear, he thought that according to adults on earth, his words should be clear enough, but Teacher Mu's expression became very strange.
He had also seen this strange look from Li Hua just now.
——This look looks like he is assessing whether the other person is a monster.
"What's your name?" After drinking for a while, Teacher Mu came to his senses and spoke.
"I'm Uncle Ming." Yu Mingshu replied.
"Then Mingshu, please come with me." Teacher Mu stood up and said to Yu Mingshu, but this time she did not hold Yu Mingshu's hand as thoughtfully as before.
"He's my uncle's uncle." Yu Mingshu didn't pay much attention to Teacher Mu's gesture of holding hands, but he did care about the name.
Because, although Yu Mingshu has transformed from a Batu planet into an Earth cub, the Earthlings are so young, so Yu Mingshu thinks they still have to call them uncle. He wanted the people on Earth not to be too shocked. He had already retreated to the point where he didn't explicitly say that he was an uncle. He could never give in to this name. (=_=)
"...Oh, then Uncle Ming, let's go?" Teacher Mu twitched the corner of his mouth unnaturally, and then said in a questioning tone.
Teacher Mu is a teacher who has just worked in the orphanage for a few years. As a teacher, she takes care of children under six years old like a nanny until they can go to school directly.
In this orphanage, in addition to ordinary orphans, there are also five children with super powers. Generally, children with superpowers go to the "Superpower Academy" that has been established for more than 20 years. However, the director of Sawyer Orphanage said that children should realize that children with superpowers are also ordinary children, and said These superpower children are still young, and he will wait until they are ten years old before sending them to the superpower academy.
Considering the finances of the orphanage and the fact that it is a long way to go to the Super Power Academy, Teacher Mu certainly doesn’t think there is anything wrong with the dean’s words. Moreover, the dean is kind. He always believes that children are essentially children regardless of whether they have super powers or not. .
However, in the eyes of ordinary people like them, superpowers are not as pleasant as they imagined.
In the eyes of Teacher Mu, Yu Mingshu was just a poor hungry child who was lost with his parents. The compassionate Teacher Mu first reacted by wanting to help Yu Mingshu, but when Yu Mingshu said something that made him sad, After what people thought were strange words, Teacher Mu instinctively couldn't be as kind to Yu Ming as before.
Because Yu Mingshu said that his "mother" "threw" him from a high altitude, but he did not die and "survived".
Nowadays, superpowers are a very sensitive matter in ordinary society, because there are so many criminals with superpowers. But under this one percent figure, some people may never see a person with super powers in their life, but there are five orphans in this orphanage who have super powers. That’s why Teacher Mu said in Yu Mingshu’s words Zhong became cautious.
Yu Mingshu obediently followed Teacher Mu who was walking quickly. Then he saw many cubs on the floor looking towards him. Some were curious, some were numb, some were hostile, and the children were playing on the grass downstairs. They are very different. However, these cubs seemed to be the same age as him or a little bigger than him, unlike the children downstairs and outside who were all "big kids" who were two heads taller than him.
Of course, although it was just a common guess, Yu Mingshu also thought that the reason why these children were like this was because they were not allowed to leave this building?
So this is for protection?
Or for... "imprisonment"?
"The dean's office is here, Uncle Ming, come in." Teacher Mu first glanced at Yu Mingshu, who had a calm face, with trembling pupils, and then knocked on the door of the dean's office. Even though she tried hard to stay calm, there was still a hint of emotion in her eyes. Be wary of Yu Mingshu.
Yu Mingshu sucked the crumbs of bread between his teeth in confusion, wondering why the females of the earth could be so fickle. This kind of fickleness is like his "mother" suddenly changing her mind and not wanting him to continue to be an "experiment"; it's like this teacher Mu was gentle and friendly just now, but now he shows such unpleasant emotions when he looks at him .
Teacher Mu quickly turned his head and stopped looking at Yu Mingshu. I really don’t blame her for being so nervous. First of all, she is not the kind of person who can completely control her expression. Secondly, because she has been negatively affected by superpowers, she still thinks that people with superpowers have extremely weak self-control. guy.
She originally only had 50% suspicion that Yu Mingshu was a person with super powers. Now because Yu Mingshu quickly walked up ten flights of stairs with her and arrived at the door of the dean's office without even taking a breath, Teacher Mu's suspicion that Yu Mingshu was a person with super powers was reached. Eighty percent.
Generally, a three-year-old child would not be able to keep up with the deliberately accelerated pace of an "adult" like her. Moreover, Teacher Mu did not see Yu Mingshu start running, and even his walking frequency was not far different from hers. Isn't this a terrible thing?
What's even more frightening is that the child didn't complain from the beginning to the end, and his eyes never wavered when he looked at her. If he were an ordinary child, Teacher Mu might think that he was just a little slow, but when Yu Mingshu was labeled as a "suspected superpower", Teacher Mu could only think of a proverb...
——A biting dog does not bark.
After Yu Mingshu walked into the dean's office, he found that it was different from the room with the open door that he had glimpsed in the corridor. It did not feel simple at all. It could even be called "splendid" and extremely dazzling.
The dark wooden floor was covered with tiger skin specimens, and under the coffee table and sofa was a very high-quality (and probably very expensive) colorful carpet. The sofa is made of leather, the coffee table is made of silver, and even the desk is made of mahogany. There are art paintings hanging on the wall. Judging from the different styles, these are probably not the works of the same person, so they should be "all bought back".
You know, the other rooms are either classrooms with only desks, chairs and whiteboards, or a narrow room with three bunk beds and six beds in one room, which is in sharp contrast to the bright and magnificent room of the dean's office.
"Hello, dean, this is the child who broke in today. He said he was abandoned by his mother. I came here to ask the dean how to deal with him?" Although Teacher Mu was wary of Yu Mingshu, But her own sense of responsibility cannot allow her to directly throw a three-year-old child out of the orphanage who may have been cruelly treated by his mother because of his superpowers. Now she brings Yu Mingshu to the director who can make the decision. It is already her The best choice you can make.
"Well..." The dean was a fat-bellied fifty-year-old man. He squinted at Yu Mingshu, who was standing obediently next to Teacher Mu, and then waved, "Kid, come here, let grandpa take a look. Can you tell grandpa? Why are you here?"
Yu Mingshu knew that this kind of tone would usually appear in adults coaxing cubs.
But even so, Yu Mingshu still went up. At present, he didn't know when he would be caught up by people from the Research Institute, and from downstairs to the dean's office, he didn't see anyone who would threaten his life. appeared, so I think this place is very suitable for him to stay until he grows up, and there are "teachers" here who can let him learn the common sense of earth people.
When he can independently solve the problem of three meals a day, he can probably leave at any time. He will definitely look around in the future. After all, not all Batu people have the opportunity to travel through a black hole to such a distant galaxy. In the future, when he leaves this body, he can explore the universe when he is ready.
If possible, he still wants to return to the planet Batu. Even though the people in his hometown are not very friendly to him, he has always been free and free with the foundation of home, unlike Duckweed who wanders around.
Yu Mingshu likes freedom and doesn't like wandering.
After deciding on the idea, Yu Mingshu tried his best to show an innocent and pitiful expression (which was actually not at all), and then said succinctly: "Because my mother doesn't want me anymore. I'm hungry."
