Chapter Seventy-Two: The Kiss of Destiny Constellation
[Date: May 17, 2937.]
"My family..."Shi Xiaowen didn't know how to respond to him, if he talked about children, he would definitely talk about his parents' worries about his own problems, and Shi Xiaowen had been worried about this problem, but her memory was really unclear about how many children there were in the family, "I, I don't remember clearly, I had an amnesia, and I haven't fully recovered until now."

"Uh, I'm sorry, Sister Shi." Duanmu Rui didn't ask further in understanding, he also knew that it was not appropriate.
"It's okay, by the way," Xiao Shi turned to face the embarrassed face, and the little guy was still turning the wings on both sides, floating in front of her blankly, "Embarrassed face, let's go get some food, right?" ”
"Yes, okay, please come with me." The embarrassed screen turned into a smile, and then slowly turned around and floated away.
Shi Xiaowen naturally followed, and if he stayed longer, he would only leave embarrassment.
"Eh, Sister Shi, I'll help you!" Duanmu also ran forward, and the cute smile on his face made it impossible to see that this was supposed to be a handsome boy.
"Oh, okay," Shi Xiaowen turned around and nodded, but when she turned around again, she saw a small service robot on the ground.
It was carrying a plate and using two tracks, and walked up to Yui Takeuchi, put food and water next to her, and with its small iron hands that resembled a board, gently put the food beside her, and said in a very gentle tone, 'Ma'am, please eat.' Yui smiled at it, thanked it, and left.
It seems that those who are helpless and disabled will be helped by robots, while those who are physically fit will walk over to receive food on their own.
"Sister Shi, what are you looking at?" Duanmu slapped her buttocks, and the latter blushed an extra layer on his face.
"Nothing, just looking at a friend." Shi Xiaowen didn't go to see Yui, but continued to follow the embarrassed face.
It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the collar of this level. This row of places to lead things is exactly opposite to the location where Shi Xiaowen is, but this is a super-large hall, Xiaoshi and Duanmu have to go from the back to the front, and the distance between them can be hundreds, I have to say that the scale of this air-raid shelter is quite large. It seems to remember that this floor is an arsenal, but it's not clear whether it's clear, after all, it's dangerous to set up an arsenal under the city.
Slowly queuing here, because Shi Xiaowen and the others came relatively late, so fortunately, there are not many people waiting to receive things, and there are only more than ten people in the queue in front.
"You get it here now, and I'll tell those who haven't received food to come and get it." The embarrassed face explained, and flew away.
"Okay!" Duanmu stretched out his hand and waved his hand softly.
Then, he looked at Shi Xiaowen with a smile on his face.
"Eh, Sister Shi, are you in a daze? Thinking of something? Watery eyes looked at Shi Xiaowen, who reluctantly smiled back.
"Do you know the origin of this bomb shelter? I don't know much about it. Xiao Shi hoped to hear something from Duanmu's mouth.
"Huh? I don't really know about this, some of them even say it's a nuclear bomb well, but it feels so fake. Duanmu shook his head, there was nothing Shi Xiaowen wanted to know.
"This air-raid shelter was originally a military base underneath," following the direction of speaking, Shi Xiaowen found a middle-aged man in front of him, with a few strands of white hair in his black hair, who looked about forty years old, "At first, this was just a barren plain, and after the peacekeepers arrived here, they used this place as the border area of the United Nations on Earth and began to build a base." ”
"Uncle, how did this become a city?" Duanmu Rui helped Shi Xiaowen ask this question, and the uncle seemed in the mood to help them explain.
"In this galaxy, Iris IV is the only mild planet that is suitable for human life without artificial modification, and is rich in mineral and biological resources. So after years of changes, in order to develop the economy, the original military base of the United Nations on Earth was placed elsewhere, and this old underground base became an air-raid shelter, and many things were demolished, and those that could not be dismantled were left here. The uncle with short black hair and a Chinese character face was in a mood to help Shi Xiaowen explain, but it was more like reminiscing about the past, looking at the lights on the ceiling from time to time.
"Uncle, when did you first discover this galaxy?" Duanmu Rui continued to ask the uncle with his girlish appearance.
"At the beginning, 2902, right? I remember when I moved to this planet when I was a child, it was quite hard to live a small life, except for the road leading to the base below, it was very deserted, although there were forests and rivers in other places, but adults did not let them pass, afraid of local beasts and the like. "It sounds like this uncle is an old resident.
"You won't be allowed to go because of alien things, right? It is also here that the economy of the outer colonies was developed. In the middle of the conversation with the uncle, the blonde and thin-faced uncle in front of him also chatted.
"It seems that there is such a thing, but those alien spaceship fragments are not used by the Hull Federation for some research?"
"It's just a part, most of it is still on this planet, isn't it rumored that the Kiss of Destiny constellation here in the Dark Cloud Star Domain has had an alien fleet war?"
What the two of them said, although it is not clear, but they are aware of it.
"That," Shi Xiaowen finally spoke, and she was going to ask, "uncles, why do you call this galaxy the Kiss of Destiny Constellation?" ”
(Note: Constellation - refers to a group of stars in the sky projected on the celestial sphere in close proximity.) Star field - a region or extent where a certain object or group of celestial objects is located. Galaxies - systems of celestial bodies, usually composed of hundreds to trillions of stars and interstellar matter, with a spatial scale of thousands to hundreds of thousands of light-years. In terms of scale, it can be sorted as, 'Milky Way-like galaxies> star fields> constellations> solar system-like galaxies'. Note that, in essence, there is no comparable method for constellations and the like, as the term star field is not too general, and it is only for ease of reading to make this scale order. )
"Kiss of fate, I remember is the name given by archaeologists." The blonde uncle looked thoughtful.
"Archaeologist?" Shi Xiaowen frowned, she should know more about the science of this world in the past two years, "Are alien objects managed by archaeologists?" ”
"Well," the black-haired uncle replied, "archaeologists nowadays are very profitable, if they find something extraterrestrial, tell the government and you can get a lot of bonuses, and if you can decipher the words that appear on it, you may even get a trophy or something." ”
"That is, the government supports it, but," Uncle Blonde frowned, as if thinking of something unpleasant, "every archaeologist must keep his discovery a secret, and he needs to be approved before he can release the news." ”
"So it's about eating the national meal again? Actually doing things for the country? Instead of going alone..."When Shi Xiaowen asked again, the blonde uncle shook his head.
"It's still a person in name, but it just means that the state supports archaeology, and there are a lot of alien things found now, all of which are alien metal fragments, and some useful equipment, but the cracking work is still too slow. You see that the energy shield is a technology developed from alien wreckage, but it is obvious that the defensive power of the shield is still not good, and the capacity is small, and the energy equipment on our soldiers still can't keep up with the aliens. ”
"That, why is it called the Kiss of Destiny constellation?" Duanmu found that this answer was a bit off-topic, and repeated the question.
"You young people don't care much about science, do you?" The black-haired uncle clasped his hands and continued, "Normally, when we say the name of a place, we directly say the inner colony or the outer colony, or more accurately, the name of the galaxy, and the computer will automatically show you which solar system galaxies are between the person you are talking to and your location. However, it is also possible to say which galaxy of which constellation by the constellation, because the constellation is the connection of several galaxies. And some archaeologists, they found that there are the same alien debris in several connected small star systems on Iris's side, which can be distinguished from the debris into two alien forces, and they found a white fragment with purple crystal, which was engraved, which looks like a portrait of a woman biting a man's left shoulder, which is not very well engraved, but the meaning is still expressed. ”
"So the archaeologists gave various explanations for the image of the woman biting the man, and tried to name the carving in general." Uncle Blonde nodded, continuing his words.
"Yes, but in the end, it was a poetess of love who gave the name to this portrait, and I forgot what it was called."
"That uncle, that woman and man engraved on the alien fragments, are all human? Or aliens? Shi Xiaowen was a little interested, seeing that there were still a few people left in the team to reach them, and continued to ask.
"That's a good question, maybe that's why this engraving painting hasn't been hyped by the media, because it's a human being," the uncle in a white shirt and black suit pants said helplessly, "Without accurate judgment, no one would believe that high-tech aliens would be ancient ancestors of mankind or something." The inaccuracy of all this made the engraving only popular for two weeks, but the name of the constellation was retained. ”
"Well, that's it..."Shi Xiaowen nodded as if he understood.
"Those in the back, please come and get something!"
The aunt who participated in the air-raid shelter security organization in front of her began to shout, and several people realized that it was their turn.
"Ah, here we go!" The blonde uncle in front smiled at Shi Xiaowen and the two of them, then took out his registration card and ran over.
Poetry and small texts, they naturally followed.
The registration card contains you and your accompanying partner, so don't worry, you forgot your partner's registration card.
"It's your share, please take it." (To be continued.) )
