Chapter 6: The Shattered Star Stone
There is absolutely no such thing as a night in a city, and even at midnight, people who are accustomed to the nightlife are just beginning to enjoy their hustle and bustle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Ryker, what are we going to do now?" the self-proclaimed clever Kirby pretended to be a normal toy parrot and was caught under the armpit by Ryker after he entered the city.
"To fill my stomach, of course. Lake didn't think about it before he spoke, after all, what happened just now, and he hadn't eaten dinner until now.
Although it is a very ordinary sentence, a sentence that a normal person will never find fault with when he listens to it, but to Kirby, who is familiar with Lake and can no longer be familiar with it, Lake's sentence is obviously a sign that he wants to make trouble.
Sure enough, when a passer-by happened to pass by, Lake instantly slashed at the back of the passerby's neck with a hand knife, knocking the passer-by unconscious, and then easily turned out a black wallet from the pocket of his jacket lining, and after taking out all the cash inside, Lake casually threw the empty wallet on the passer-by who had passed out.
"Gone, eaten. Lake shook the cash at Kirby, who was already dumbfounded, and walked in the direction where a faint scent wafted in.
Yatai, a traditional Japanese street food bar, usually Yatai sells whatever it sells will be written on the outside curtain of the food, and Lake, who learned Japanese after transmission, naturally understood the food nouns such as oden written on it.
"Okay, I've decided to eat this tonight. Ryker, who was on Earth for the first time, was curious about the food he had never eaten before, and he walked over as he looked at the brightly lit roof.
"Yo, the guests are very raw, is it the first time to come?" Lake had just opened the curtain and walked in, and the owner in a white apron and a white chef's hat took the initiative to say hello, and the middle-aged uncle looked at Lake who had already sat down and said very familiarly, "Speaking of which, it is rare for a young man like you to come back to a stall like ours." ”
It's just that Lake didn't have any idea of answering the uncle's words, so he just pointed to the various oden on the shop and said, "Give me a copy of these." ”
"One portion, really?" the uncle asked this Lake very uncertainly, although the amount of each portion is not very much, but one of each one is definitely not something that a normal person can eat.
"Forget it, just have a few of them. Looking at the uncle's surprised expression, Lake instantly gave up the idea of having everything, and it was better not to act too different from the earthlings.
"I know, just grab a few copies of my signboard here. Hearing Lake's changed mind, the uncle smiled enthusiastically, and began to take out the food from the shop and start arranging it, serving it in front of Lake......
The yatai is one such place where the owner and guests can chat up close at any time. Seeing that Lake had almost eaten, the uncle handed over a pack of wet wipes and asked Lake, "How does it feel?"
"Not bad. Looking at such an enthusiastic boss, Lake smiled and replied, and then asked the uncle, "By the way, uncle, have you heard of any treasures or something?"
Lake's sudden invasion of culture made Kirby, who was acting as a toy model on the side, sway, but fortunately, the uncle's eyes were fixed on Lake's body and he didn't notice Kirby's action.
"Treasure?" Hearing Ryker's question, the uncle's head tilted as if he was in memory, and after a while, he patted his head and said to Ryker, "You mean the gems that are about to be exhibited, wait a minute......
As the uncle spoke, he turned around and rummaged through a pile of newspapers on the shelf, and then pulled out one of the piles of newspapers and brought it to Lake: "Look, that's what you're talking about." ”
Taking the newspaper handed over by his uncle, Lake saw such a headline on the front page of the eye-catching front.
The World's Greatest Treasure Comes Alive!
Seeing such a title, Lake had already realized that this would definitely not be the biggest treasure in the universe he was looking for, and just wanted to return the newspaper to the uncle in front of him, but he felt a pain in his thigh, and his brows couldn't help but wrinkle subconsciously, and he looked at Kirby on the side of his leg.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Lake's expression, the uncle hurriedly asked with concern.
"No, nothing. Lake hurriedly waved his hand at the uncle to show that he was fine, and then said, "Can I take this newspaper with me?"
"Absolutely, after all, this is last week's paper. The uncle immediately agreed to Lake's request, and at the same time joked, "Remember to come often in the future." ”
The uncle's joke made Lake laugh, and he immediately checked out and left the room with Kirby in his arms.
Feeling that he had left Uncle Yatai's sight, Lake immediately asked Kirby, "What's the use of this newspaper!"
If Kirby hadn't pecked himself and projected the word "newspaper" on the ground, Lake would have returned the old newspaper to Uncle Yatai a long time ago.
"Newspapers don't matter!" replied Kirby with a smile on his face to Lake's words.
Hearing Kirby's words, Lake instantly grabbed Kirby's bird's head, carried it in front of him, looked at each other, and said in a fierce tone: "You'd better explain it to me! Otherwise, I don't mind if there's an extra pile of scrap metal on the ship!"
"Look at the picture above for yourself!" Faced with Lake's threat, Kirby's smugness disappeared in an instant, and he hurriedly spoke.
Hearing this, Lake instantly let go of the hand holding Kirby, opened the newspaper and read it...... Indeed, just now I only noticed the title, but I didn't see that there was a picture attached to it, which had a very clear photo of this so-called "treasure".
A photograph shows a large, transparent stone that reflects its mesmerizing brilliance in the light.
The other is in a gloomy environment, and the inside of the stone has countless points of light that are constantly twinkling like stars.
Lake looked at Kirby, who had already flown to his shoulder, very uncertainly: "Kirby, this is the Shattered Shadow Star Stone?"
"I'm not 100% sure, but I think there's a good possibility, after all, only the Shadow Shattered Star Stone has this kind of starlight in the dark. Kirby said very conservatively, "If it's really the Shadow Shattering Star Stone, then the energy problem can be solved temporarily." ”
The Shattered Shadow Star Stone is a relatively high-energy energy source in the universe, and according to the fist-sized Shattered Star Stone shown on the film, it is enough to supplement nearly half of the energy of the Hao Kuai Sailing Ship.
"It's decided, this Shattered Star Stone belongs to us. Lake said without hesitation.
This is how a cosmic pirate works, and what you want has to be obtained with your own hands!
