"Captain, think of a way! We've been locked up here for so long, why don't Sakincha still ignore us, have they forgotten about us a long time ago? "On this day, the team of five gathered in the hall as usual, discussing topics that they would talk about once a day. As the days passed, each of them slowly began to irritable from the initial calm.

"yes, we've been locked up here for more than a dozen years, what does Sagincha want to do with us?" At this time, the woman's voice seemed a little irritated, "Staying in this hellish place, I don't even know how long time has passed, it's really damned." ”

Captain, you can call him Geziol at this time, he replied in a helpless tone, "what else can be done, since we arrived here, except for the time when we first arrived, we have been locked up here for the rest of the time, and the only thing we can contact every day is the robot who brought us food." It's not like you don't know these days, and I haven't tried to communicate with that robot. Speaking of this, he changed to a depressed tone, "But what the result, the other party didn't even pay attention to me, just put down the things and left." So what else can I do, do I force it to stay? Hearing the captain's words, the expressions on the faces of the other four people also became depressed.

"Still, since they remember every day." Then Gziol's mood calmed down, and he calmly analyzed, "That means that Sarkincha should not have forgotten us." And judging from the attitude they have shown recently, although they are relatively cold, they have not made any other radical moves except for coldness, and they have not even locked us up one by one. Based on this, I believe that the safety of several of us should still be able to be guaranteed in the near future. ”

"That being said, what are they trying to do by keeping us here?" As soon as he finished speaking, Mondcombe asked.

"How do I know that?" Gezio shrugged subconsciously, "Maybe they're just getting caught up in it for some reason—"

"Hey, hey." Halfway through Gzior's words, a voice suddenly sounded from above the heads of the five men. At first hearing this voice, the five people were slightly stunned, and it took them a few seconds before they reacted, and after reacting, the five people, including Geziol, almost simultaneously began to scan the room they were in, looking for the source of the sound.

"Ahem, hello." With a second echo of the same sound, this time they finally determined that it was coming from a corner of the ceiling.

Facing the corner he had identified, Mondcombe spat out a series of questions for a short period of time, "Why did you get a few of us here?" And keep us here for so long? When will we be able to let us out? What is the purpose of your visit to repair the pagoda this time? ”

At the same time as Mondcombe asked, in the command module—

"Atlas, translate, what the hell did he say?" Listening to a series of strange syllables that he had never heard before, Zhou Xin asked with a frown.

"This—" replied the little girl with a bitter face, "what he said is so complicated that it is not possible to translate it completely with the vocabulary he has mastered so far. It is only known that it contains an inquiry as to why they were brought on the Voyager, and the full meaning of the other few sentences is not known. ”

"I'm too early." After Atlas finished speaking, Dart continued, "Communicate directly with them without fully mastering their language." Well, the first thing they said was a problem. I think that's the end of today, and I'll wait a little longer to talk about communicating with them. ”

"How is that possible?" Zhou Xin smiled bitterly, "We have been locked up for nearly a month, and if we don't have a simple communication with them, I'm worried that their psychological state will have problems if they continue." You just heard Atlas's report, several of them have been showing varying degrees of irritability these days, and one of them even tried to communicate with the robot that brought them food every time, which is not a good sign. At this, he sighed, "If only we could master their language a little faster." ”

"It's not to blame." The little girl continued with an aggrieved tone, "This time the speed of language decipherment is already very fast, thanks to the brainwave depth analysis technology that people learned from the chip civilization before. At the previous rate, it would take at least a month for people to understand the language of this civilization to the level it is now. ”

"I don't blame you." Zhou Xin hurriedly comforted, "I just complained casually, and I can only blame them for appearing at some wrong times." Uh, no, how can I say-"

"Okay, why are you talking about this, don't you think you've forgotten something?" Just when Zhou Xin didn't know how to appease Atlas, Spred helplessly covered his forehead and reminded, "There is still a group of people waiting for your reply." ”

"Oh, yes, yes." Zhou Xin, who was reminded, showed a relieved expression, and then he turned his attention back to the picture. Looking at the aliens above who had already shown an anxious look on their faces because they had been waiting for a long time, Zhou Xin said, "Since we can't communicate with them smoothly for the time being, let's play it according to the pre-arranged content." ”

————

"What the hell are they trying to do? Why did it ring twice and then it was gone, and I didn't even answer my questions. After waiting for a long time, Mondcombe, who was staring at the corner, finally couldn't help but ask, but the question was not answered by his fellow companions, who were also puzzled.

As time went on, the five of them slowly calmed down from their initial excitement, and finally some frustration appeared on their faces. But just when a few people were about to give up, the voice they had been waiting for for a long time sounded again.

"Dear - my - friends, I-well-I am-invite-you-the ones who came here—but—um-but-because of some-special-uh-is the word special, some special-reason, we—for the time being—have no way to talk to you—uh—(what should I say in their words about the word meeting?) (This sentence is in Chinese)), uh - there is no way to see each other with you for the time being - I hope you - can be honest (it doesn't seem to be this word, but the meaning is similar. In the room—for a while—"

"Uh-that's it?" When the sound died down, the room fell silent. It took a moment for the silence to be broken again by Mondcombe's stunned voice......
