"As expected of you." Palladium
When Maria followed Chu Hua back to the convenience store, she felt sincerely impressed.
"In a short period of time, you have established a base. Is this your strategic planning ability, Emperor Xia?"
Chu Hua stood aside and took out the key to remotely control the rolling shutter door and raised it: "Uh...it's a long story, so let's come in and sit down first."
The conversation between the two was in the common language of the interstellar era, a language similar to French.
On the way here, Chu Hua also learned about Maria's experience on earth.
A few months ago, she suddenly appeared on this planet. She was unfamiliar with the place and the language.
What's more important is that all the spiritual energy in the body disappears, and there is basically no difference from ordinary people. palladium
As a deaf-mute, she wandered in the city for several days. When she was so hungry that she felt dizzy, some people kindly called the police, and then public officials found her.
After a series of investigations, it turns out that there is no information about Maria, as if she suddenly appeared.
In desperation, public officials can only register first and wait for a response from the Exit-Entry Administration.
Just like that, Maria was settled.
During this time, she studied the local language seriously. Although it was a bit difficult, she was finally able to communicate simply.
Then the idea of labor service came up.
She doesn't want to be freeloaders. palladium
And if you want to know the situation of this planet, you must have certain resources.
What happened at the summit was by no means that simple.
The people behind the scenes have big plans!
"Although this planet is located in an unknown part of the galaxy and looks relatively primitive, as long as a communication device is set up, we should be able to contact the empire."
Maria said while sitting upright with her hands on her knees.
The two of them were sitting opposite each other on a small table with a coffee table worth more than 70 yuan. Chu Hua was making tea.
In such a shabby place, who would have thought that there are two big guys chatting about interstellar matters. palladium
After Chu Hua brewed the tea, he looked at Maria.
"We should consider this matter in detail."
To be honest, if she hadn't been speaking in Common, he would have thought Maria was a delusional patient.
But the other party did indeed appear in front of him.
Does this mean that that long experience was real...?
Perhaps, they were just inexplicably thrust into the Stars game and participated in a bizarre story in Guanglu.
Hearing Chu Hua's words, Maria sighed: "Yes, this behavior of the person behind it is by no means simple. If it is done rashly, even this planet may be implicated." Palladium
"..." Chu Hua said nothing.
If the Earth is really in the Milky Way, then based on the setting of the stars, it would be an indigenous planet at best.
Maybe, there really is an observation standing in the deep sky.
No one knows when the sky will explode again.
Chu Hua looked out the door and saw the afterglow of evening on the incomparable sea.
"Do you have a place to live? I still have a vacant house here."
"That's good, it will make it easier for us to work nearby." Palladium
Maria was not polite at all.
Besides, it doesn’t cost much credits.
Compared with the placement of public officials, Chu Hua of the United Front is obviously more trustworthy.
"Boss, come and pack cigarettes."
At this moment, a voice came from the door, a guest was coming.
Chu Hua stood up and walked over: "Come on, come on."
Maria sat in her original position, tilting her head several times as she watched Chu Hua entertain customers familiarly. palladium
This man is really incomprehensible.
Should I say down-to-earth or adaptable? This store is very good at what it does.
And the local language is so proficient, as if he has lived here for more than ten years.
Halfway through
Within hours, extremely efficient public officials arrived at Chuhua's convenience store.
A girl of unknown origin actually has an acquaintance?
Is there something hidden?
Unfortunately, Chu Hua could not provide any valid proof of Maria's identity. After final registration, Maria was temporarily stationed in the convenience store as a clerk, which saved the work arrangement of the street office. palladium
In this way, the two met under unexpected circumstances and made a plan to return together.
But, can the lost travelers reconnect with the stars that belong to them?
Another few months passed.
Maria officially settled in Chu Hua's home.
Although she was hired as a store clerk, it was impossible for Chu Hua to really let her work.
So, Maria stayed in the room meditating when she had nothing to do, trying to re-induct the psychic energy and prepare for the plan.
As for Chu Hua, he felt extremely relaxed after having his burden lifted. palladium
Especially after the convenience store hired a new employee, he had time to recast his reputation as the nightclub prince.
"Good morning, boss."
The young man with messy hair and glasses greeted Chu Hua.
"Oh, here we come." Chu Hua, who had just opened the door, raised his chin to him.
Shi Ji is the new employee of the convenience store.
Although his behavior is a bit weird, he is quite honest and does his job as a storekeeper well.
Chu Hua had a pretty good opinion of him. palladium
After looking at his watch, Chu Hua said, "Okay, just watch. I'm going to drink tea."
Shi Ji pushed up his glasses and nodded in response: "Okay, boss."
Then he watched Chu Hua leave the store and walk to the parking lot.
Although working in a convenience store is not as dignified as the white-collar workers in the business district, the advantage is that it is free.
Shi Ji didn't expect that he could actually find a job with an above-average salary.
"You have to be a rich second generation. You open a store just to pass the time."
After sighing, he took out the tablet from his backpack, connected it to the keyboard and mouse, and started his day's work... Palladium
And upstairs.
Maria stood in front of the window, looking at Chu Hua's figure, frowning slightly.
It has been nearly half a year, and it seems that Emperor Xia has done nothing serious.
Just eat, drink and have fun every day.
"What on earth are you thinking about?"
After murmuring, Maria looked at her hands.
After all this time, she still couldn't sense the existence of psychic energy. palladium
Here, it seems that there is no concept of psychic energy.
"We can't drag it on like this any longer. I don't know what the situation in the galaxy will become..."
It is impossible to find a way back by yourself.
Maria made up her mind and planned to have a serious talk with Chu Hua.
That night, Chu Hua came as invited.
When faced with Maria's inquiry, he responded like this.
"To be honest, I don't need to return to anything, I am from here." Palladium
Maria looked in disbelief and asked in surprise: "What does this mean? Have you abandoned your people?"
Chu Hua was silent for a moment, and then said to her, "Follow me."
He took Maria to his room and opened the game Stars.
After a brief explanation, Maria was allowed to experience it herself.
It was not until 24 hours passed, and all the major events in the game were revealed to her, that the two continued their conversation.
Fatigue clearly appeared on Maria's face.
She closed her eyes for a moment and sighed: "In other words, you think everything we have experienced is false?" Palladium
Chu Hua did not deny it. He took a breath and said, "I originally thought that besides you, other rulers might also come here."
"But after these days of exploration, it seems that you are the only one who came here. I don't know if we were close at that time.
Or some special reason. "
"In short, the situation in the past may not be what you imagined."
Maria listened to Chu Hua’s words silently.
At this moment, she truly understood.
The lost one is just herself.
"No, that's not the case. I'm pretty sure the experience is real." Palladium
Maria looked at Chu Hua and said seriously: "Even if it's for them, I should go back there!"
"You can't feel spiritual energy at all, can you?" Chu Hua shook his head: "Give up and just live here with peace of mind."
Would anyone give up their true self for an illusory world?
There may be, for example, some two-dimensional houses, and some people even use steam rollers to travel to other worlds.
Arthur C. Clarke wrote a book called The Nine Billion Names of God.
When a being in a book breaks the fourth wall, panic is the real reaction.
Chu Hua once believed that those experiences were real, but after so long, the truth seemed to be like this. palladium
These days, I have also helped Maria get a residence permit, which can be regarded as creating conditions for her to live here.
People always have to face life.
That night, Maria was obviously depressed and left Chu Hua's room.
Time continues to pass.
Just a month later, Maria found Chu Hua again.
The meeting scene was a bit eye-catching.
Chu Hua leaned against the wall, looking a little distressed at Maria's disheveled appearance. palladium
Now she looks a bit like a psyker going crazy.
But when she took off her clothes, her perfect vagina was still shocking.
Then under Chu Hua's watch, a miracle happened.
A miracle that breaks through imagination and appears in the real world.
As Maria howled in pain, her body was shattered, and her left hand and right foot turned into nothingness.
Then, a gorgeous illusory rose appeared in front of the two of them.
"Now, do you still think it's false?" Palladium
Sweat wetted her hair, and above the quantum rose was Maria's mutilated hands and feet.
For some reason, Chu Hua thought of Venus, the goddess of beauty who had lost her hand.
Seeing her like this, Chu Hua felt what it meant to feel ashamed.
The next day, despite Chu Hua's obstruction, Maria left the city.
Having lost one arm and one leg, she used crutches and headed inland.
Chu Hua stood in the room and stared at the quantum rose for two days and two nights, and finally made up his mind...
(Thanks for the support! Hey!) Palladium
