Chapter 66: A Conversation with My Sister and Brother

The quiet atmosphere lasted for a while, and then, Zhou Xin finally couldn't help but speak. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although he wanted to know about the previous experience of the alien siblings, as soon as he said Zhou Xin, he decided to care about them first, "Are you still used to living on the spaceship in the past two days?" Isn't it very different from your previous life? ”

Hearing Zhou Xin's question, this time Aina quickly raised her head, and a very surprised expression appeared on her face, as if she was wondering why Zhou Xin would ask such a question. After staring at Zhou Xin for a while, she found that Zhou Xin was also looking at herself quietly, waiting for her answer, so she stammered and replied: "It's okay, it's okay, although it's very different from the previous life, but, but everything, it's better than before, it's much better." Then, her brother Blue popped out two words next to her, "Delicious." Hearing these two words, Zhou Xin couldn't help but laugh. Hearing Zhou Xin's laughter, Aina quickly lowered her head.

After laughing for a while, Zhou Xin stopped, "Okay, you really don't have to be so nervous, just chat casually, since you are still in the habit of living here, then stay here for a while longer, and I will send you back when the time is right." ”

Hearing this, Aina quickly raised her head again, but this time, the expression on her face looked a little tangled, and then Zhou Xin saw a trace of nostalgia on her face, and then the little girl's face quickly turned gray, and then she replied listlessly and in a low voice, "Oh-"

Hearing Aina's answer, Zhou Xin felt very strange, "What's the matter, don't you want to go back?" ”

As soon as this question came out, the little girl's face suddenly showed a look of fear, and even the expression on the face of Blue next to her changed, "No, no, no, go back, I want to go back." Aina replied duplicitously.

Seeing Aina's expression, Zhou Xin immediately understood her inconsistent thoughts, but seeing that she was so scared, Zhou Xin decisively changed the topic, "What do you think, how about this spaceship?" ”

"Very, nice, nice, comfortable, spacious, anywhere." Hearing that Zhou Xin no longer asked about the previous topic, the little girl's face suddenly showed a relieved expression, and she replied incoherently.

"Don't be nervous." Zhou Xin said with a smile, and then he remembered something, "By the way, this should be the first time you have seen me, I have seen you before, but you should have only heard my voice." To reside, I'm the captain of this spaceship, the Voyager, and my name is Zhou Xin. With that, he stood up and held out his right hand to the little girl in front of him.

Seeing Zhou Xin's outstretched right hand, Aina's face showed a puzzled look, and she looked at Christie, who was sitting next to her without saying a word, with a puzzled look in her eyes.

"It's our common way of greeting on ships, you just stretch out your hand and shake the captain." Seeing Aina's eyes, Christy explained.

After listening to Christie's explanation, the little girl immediately understood, and seeing that Zhou Xin had been in this position for a long time, she hurriedly stood up and stretched out her hand to him. But when Aina found out, her hand had reached out to Zhou Xin's right hand, and suddenly she had an embarrassed look on her face. Nervous, she didn't withdraw her hand, but stiffened it in place.

Zhou Xin's face showed a smile, in order not to let the little girl continue to be embarrassed, he changed his hand, and then joked: "It seems that your etiquette is also very strange, you must use your left hand, it seems that I am rude." ”

The little girl's face turned red all of a sudden, and when he held her hand, Zhou Xin found that the little girl's hand was a little stiff, and the temperature was much higher than his palm. But he didn't care about this, after shaking it twice, Zhou Xin let go of his hand and took it back, at this time, it was the turn of the little girl to keep her hand motionless.

Christy smiled, she reached out and pressed the little girl's hand, and seeing that the little girl was still a little at a loss, she said, "All right, that's it, sit down." ”

Seeing that Zhou Xin in front of her had already sat down again, and then looked at herself with a smile, she hurriedly sat down again. At this time, Blue, who was sitting next to him, seemed to find everything that had just happened very interesting, he suddenly stood up, and then stretched out his hand to Zhou Xin.

"Blue!" Seeing her brother's movements, Aina shouted in a reprimanding tone. Blue's hand shook a little at the sound of his sister's scream, and he slowly retracted his hand when he saw his sister looking at him sternly.

Seeing Blue's movements, Zhou Xin was slightly stunned, and then he quickly stood up, grabbed Blue's hand that just wanted to sit down, and said with a smile: "It seems that our little Blue also wants to be the same as my sister." After shaking it twice, he let go of Blue's hand, and while shaking hands, Zhou Xin felt the same temperature as her sister in Blue's hand. Okay, it's time to sit down. As he let go, he said kindly to Blue.

When he was scolded by his sister at the beginning, Blue's face showed a little frightened, and when he saw Zhou Xin standing up, the look of fear on his face became even stronger. But when Zhou Xin just shook his hand and let go, and didn't do anything else, the look on his face relaxed, but after Zhou Xin let go of his hand and he had sat down, he still stood there dumbfounded.

"Don't sit down yet." Aina spoke to her brother again, hearing her sister's words, and this time, Blue finally reacted, and with the help of Christy beside him, he sat back on the ground.

Then, Aina turned her face to Zhou Xin and whispered in an apologetic tone, "That-my brother is so naughty, I hope you can forgive him." ”

Zhou Xin smiled, and then comforted Wen Yan: "You don't have to apologize like this, there's nothing wrong with a child being naughty, I was similar to him when I was a child." ”

"But he's five years old." Aina's voice was a little excited, "It's not a three-year-old or four-year-old child for a long time, and it's time to learn to be sensible." When she spoke, she completely ignored that she was also a child, and she looked like a little adult. After finishing speaking, seeing that Zhou Xin and Christy were both looking at her with strange eyes, she suddenly realized that her reaction just now seemed to be a little too intense, "This-this-my, I mean-yes-" She hurriedly waved her hands to explain, but the more anxious she wanted to explain, the more she didn't know what to say.

Seeing that the little girl's anxious face turned red again, Zhou Xin waved his hand at her, "It's okay, don't be nervous, I'm just curious about how old you are now." ”

"They're all seven years old, and they'll be adults in a year's time, and they'll be able to do a lot of work for their families now." The little girl's tone suddenly became proud, and then she glanced at Blue next to her, and continued with a headache, "But my brother, until now, is still so naughty and keeps causing trouble for everyone. Then she reacted, "Ah, sorry, sorry, it's useless to say so much. ”

"It's okay, it will also allow us to get to know you better." Zhou Xin motioned to Aina not to care, and then he asked, "According to what you said, does that mean that you can already be called adults at the age of eight?" Although Atlas had introduced that the age of the creatures of this civilization was very low, Zhou Xin was still a little surprised after hearing Aina's statement.

"Why, aren't you like that?" Hearing this question, Aina's tone became strange, "In our place, it is already considered late for those who are eight years old, and some of us are even just seven years old for the rite of passage. It's still because my parents don't agree, so it's delayed until next year. At the mention of her parents, the little girl's face showed a very sad look.

"Okay, don't be sad, maybe your parents were rescued in some escape pod like you." Zhou Xin comforted.

"Is that really the case?" The little girl looked up at Zhou Xin, and there was a look of hope in her eyes.

"Uh-maybe, at least I've seen a lot of escape pods escape, maybe your parents are inside." Although he knew that it was basically impossible for the siblings' parents to survive, Zhou Xin still told a white lie.

After listening to Zhou Xin's words, the little girl's face suddenly improved a lot, and then she asked curiously: "By the way, by the way, you didn't say how old your coming-of-age ceremony was just now." ”

"Uh-" Hearing this question, Zhou Xin hesitated again, he didn't know if the sister and brother could accept the reality of age, after thinking about it, he still decided to be vague, "It will be a little older than you, our individual growth cycle is a little longer." Seeing the little girl looking at him with doubts, he decisively changed the subject, "By the way, since you know that it was the Imperial Army that launched an attack on you, do you know why they launched an attack on the fleet?" Although he had already known the reason for the army's attack on the fleet from the recording, Zhou Xin still wanted to know how well others knew about this matter.

As soon as Zhou Xin finished speaking, the little girl showed a look of reminiscence, and then her face became dazed, and she shook her head, and Aina replied: "I don't know, at the beginning, when the spaceship stopped, there was a notice from the whole ship, saying that it was a routine inspection by the army. After waiting for a long time, the army suddenly launched an attack on our ship, and as soon as they attacked, the whole ship was in chaos, and everyone was looking for an escape pod to escape. My mom and dad managed to find an escape pod, and then they told me and my brother to huddle in the pod first, saying that they had found other pods, and let me and my brother go first, and they would run away together later, and then -- and then when they woke up, they were already on the ship. ”

After listening to Aina's words, Zhou Xin couldn't help but sigh for their parents in his heart, but his face did not change, "Since this is the case, it means that what I said before is right, your parents have also escaped, but they should not be found by us." ”

"Uh-huh" The little girl obviously believed Zhou Xin's words, she nodded vigorously, and then pleaded, "Uncle Ship, can you help us find our parents?" As she spoke, she looked at Zhou Xin with a hopeful gaze, and even Blue next to her showed the same gaze towards Zhou Xin when she heard this, and her mouth was still saying, "Find Mom and Dad." ”

"I'll do my best." Zhou Xin shook his head at Christie, who wanted to speak again, and replied with an unchanged face, "But whether you can find it or not is not necessarily." But his tone was a little unnatural.

Aina didn't hear any difference in Zhou Xin's tone, and a grateful look appeared on her face, "Thank you, thank you, Uncle Captain." ”

"No, no, it's just a matter of convenience." Zhou Xin waved his hand again and again, and then he continued to ask, "Then do you know what you are going to do when you return to the planet this time?" ”

The little girl shook her head again in a daze.

Before asking this question, Zhou Xin knew that it was impossible to learn from Aina's body about what had happened before, so Zhou Xin was not surprised by her reaction, but he still asked a little reluctantly: "What about before getting on the spaceship?" Do you remember what happened to the All-Space City broadcast, what happened after the broadcast, and how you got on that spaceship? ”

This time the little girl nodded, "There was indeed a city-wide radio broadcast at the beginning, but this kind of thing happens from time to time, so there is nothing strange about it." However, a few days later, Mom and Dad came home at about the same time during work hours, and then they decided to take my brother and me back to Songxing without knowing what they had discussed. ”

"Didn't you tell them about the decision when they told you about it?" Zhou Xin asked curiously.

"Yes." Aina replied earnestly, "But they told me it was okay and that someone would take us back." ”

"And then?"

"Later? Then we got on that ship the next day. The little girl's answer still did not give a detailed process.

Zhou Xin's brows furrowed, and after thinking about it, he decided not to continue to ask, because he knew that even if he continued to ask, the sisters and brothers in front of him should not know more. So, he said, "Well, I already know what I should know, and now it's your turn, do you have any other questions for me......?" ”
