Chapter 12: The Native Population of the Earth

My father is the driver, and my mother is the conductor, and they travel back and forth between the planets all year round, leaving the young me on Earth.

People like me, who have never set foot in extraterrestrials, are also jokingly called the natives of the earth.

During a trip to Jupiter, his parents' "Moon" Star Express encountered a rift in time and space, and was never seen since. They were accompanied by 36,000 passengers on board.

I was only three years old that year, and after I became sensible, I found the news of my parents' disappearance on the Internet, and the space-time crack appeared suddenly, and there was no room for turning at all.

"Please do not panic and be sure to activate the safety device on the right hand side of your seat." This is the mother's voice in the video, and it is also the last sound left by the "Yongyue" Star Express to mankind.

After my parents disappeared, my uncle adopted me, and he couldn't bear to entrust me to an orphanage.

I live and play with my cousin, who is two years younger than me. Over the years, I have not only been her brother, but also her nanny, bodyguard, and punching bag.

When I was 17 years old, I eloped with her.

I could have lived a solid life and joined the breeding war by the time I was 18 years old. Marry her openly.

But I can't wait. Teenagers are always impatient, they only look at what is in front of them, and they want to have good things right away.

This probably has something to do with the fact that I am a native of the earth, and I have always believed that if a person has not had the experience of going out of the earth, his way of thinking will be limited by gravity. It's hard to really broaden your horizons without having personally visited the vastness of the universe.

So I can't become a hero in one day and one place. I just feel that in my eyes, my cousin is the most beautiful existence on this planet, and she also likes to be with me.

If we truly love each other, why can't we be together?

The only thing that is owed is the honest uncle and the aunt who loves to play small abacus.

For many years, I compensated me with a portion of the gratuity after each killing, never attributing the source.

But that's for later. After bringing my cousin out, the first problem I faced was how to evade arrest.

Eloping with a woman was a felony that would completely deprive you of the right to mate in the Iron Age.

We first fled the bustling city on "black lightning", we flew high above thousands of floors of buildings, cars driven by people in fancy clothes passed us, and many of us stared at our cousins with wide eyes, I think they rarely had the opportunity to meet women in reality.

I know that at first it arouses curiosity or suspicion at most, and that our elopement will always be discovered later.

Before it was classified as an elopement, we first fled to a deserted wilderness, surviving on food and smart tents prepared two weeks in advance.

Some people think that a life on the run is tense and terrifying, but it is not. For a short time when we first eloped, we were free and lucky. Although no one said it, we secretly hoped that our actions would not be discovered, let alone wanted.

We spent a great time in the wilderness tent until we ran out of supplies and then returned to another city to buy supplies.

When he first escaped, he was still free, but when he returned, he was already wanted.

It's not just fear, it's even a little bit of shame.

After all, people are social animals, and no matter how maverick you are, you will be affected by this society to some extent.

When I got out of the robot-run self-service store, Ben didn't want to stop long, and planned to take my cousin back to the warm tent in the suburbs.

I still vividly remember that less than 10 minutes after we rode the "black lightning", there was a deafening siren behind us.

"You've broken the law!"

I lowered my head and continued to run.

"Please stop your actions immediately!"

I ignore it and sprint at full speed.

"If you don't stop your behavior, we will take coercive measures!"

"Bang!" Not long after the sentence ended, the laser from behind it came over.

The booster of the "black electricity" burst, emitting billowing smoke.

The car couldn't run anymore.

Seeing that I was about to be overtaken, my cousin whispered in my ear: Farewell.

Then, she jumped down.

I jumped down - if you can't live together, you will die together.

We've said it a long time ago.
