Chapter 368: The Lost Traveler
"It's you." palladium
When Maria followed Chu Hua back to the convenience store, she felt sincerely admired.
"In a short period of time, you have established a base, is this your ability to plan, Emperor Xia?"
Chu Hua stood beside him, took out the key and remotely controlled the roller shutter to rise: "Uh...... It's a long story, so let's sit down first."
The conversation between the two is in the lingua franca of the interstellar age, which is a language similar to French.
And on the way here, Chu Hua also knew what happened to Maria on Earth.
A few months ago, she suddenly appeared on this planet, unfamiliar with life and language.
What's more, all the spiritual energy in the body has disappeared, and there is basically no difference from ordinary people. palladium
As a deaf-mute person who wandered in the city for several days, when she was dizzy with hunger, a group of people launched a kind police call, and then the public officials found her.
After a series of investigations, there was no information about Maria, as if it had appeared out of nowhere.
In desperation, the public officials had no choice but to register first and wait for a response from the Exit and Entry Bureau.
In this way, Mary was settled.
During this time, she studied the local language carefully, and although it was a little difficult, she was finally able to communicate easily.
Then the idea of labor was proposed.
She doesn't want to eat white food. palladium
And if you want to know the situation on this planet, you must have a certain amount of resources.
What happened at the summit was by no means that simple.
The people behind it have a great plan!
"Although this planet doesn't know where it is located in the galaxy, and it looks relatively primitive, as long as you set up a communication device, you should be able to contact the Empire."
Mary said, sitting upright with her hands on her lap.
The two sat opposite each other on a small table, on which was a coffee table of more than seventy yuan, and Chu Hua was making tea.
In such a shabby place, who would have thought that there were two bigwigs chatting about interstellar events. palladium
After Chu Hua finished brewing the tea, he glanced at Maria.
"We should think about it again."
Truth be told, if she hadn't spoken the lingua franca, he would have thought Maria was a paranoid.
But the other party's did appear in front of him.
Does that mean that the long experience is real.......
Perhaps, they were just inexplicably stuffed into the game of stars and participated in a bizarre story text.
Hearing Chu Hua's words, Maria sighed: "Also, the actions of the people behind this time are by no means simple to complete, if you act rashly, maybe even this planet will be implicated." palladium
"....." Chu Hua didn't speak.
If Earth were really in the Milky Way, then the stars would be an indigenous planet at best.
I don't know, but there really is an observation standing in deep space.
I don't know when the stars will explode.
Chu Hua looked out of the door, and on the incomparable sea, it was the afterglow of the evening.
"Do you have a place to live, I still have an empty house here."
"That's fine, so that we can do things nearby." palladium
Mary was not the slightest polite.
Besides, it doesn't cost much credit.
Compared with the settlement of public officials, Chu Hua of the United Front is obviously more trustworthy.
"Boss, come pack cigarettes."
Just then, a voice came from the door, a guest had arrived.
Chu Hua got up and walked: "It's coming, it's coming."
Maria sat in her place, watching Chu Hua familiarly entertain customers, tilting her head a few degrees. palladium
This man is really unreasonable.
Should I say down-to-earth, or adaptable, this store is very good at its job.
And the local language is so proficient, as if I have lived here for more than ten years.
It's more than halfway through
Hours, the highly efficient public officials came to Chu Hua's convenience store.
A girl of unknown origin, who actually has an acquaintance?
Could it be that there is something hidden?
It's a pity that Chu Hua can't give any valid proof of Maria's identity, and finally after registration, Maria is temporarily attached to the convenience store as a clerk, which can be regarded as saving the work arrangement of the street office. palladium
In this way, the two met under unexpected circumstances and made a plan to return together.
However, will the lost traveler be able to reconnect with their own stars?
Another few months passed.
Maria officially settled in Chu Hua's house.
Although she is attached to the clerk, it is impossible for Chu Hua to really let her work.
So, Maria stayed in her room and meditated, trying to regain her psionic energy and prepare for the plan.
As for Chu Hua, he was extremely relaxed when he unloaded his burden. palladium
Especially after the convenience store hired a new employee, he had time to recast the name of the prince of the night club.
"Boss morning."
The hair was a little messy, and the young man wearing glasses greeted Chu Hua.
"Oh, here we go." Chu Hua, who had just opened the door, raised his chin to him.
Shi Ji is a new employee of the convenience store.
Although the behavior is a little weird, he is still honest and does a good job of looking at the store.
Chu Hua's evaluation of him is quite good. palladium
Looking at his watch, Chu Hua said, "Okay, you look at it, I'm going to drink tea."
Shi Ji pushed down his glasses and nodded in response, "Okay boss."
Then he watched Chu Hua leave the store and walk to the parking lot.
Although the job of a convenience store is not as decent as that of a white-collar worker in the business district, it is better to be idle.
Shi Ji didn't expect that he would be able to find this job with an unusually high salary.
"It has to be the second generation of the rich, and the store is here to pass the time."
After sighing, he took out the tablet from the backpack he was carrying, connected the keyboard and mouse, and started the day's work..... palladium
And upstairs.
Maria stood in front of the window, looking at Chu Hua's figure, her brows furrowed slightly.
It's been nearly half a year, and it seems that Emperor Xia hasn't done anything serious.
Every day is all about eating, drinking, and having fun.
"What the hell are you thinking?"
After muttering a word, Maria looked at her hand.
After all this time, she still couldn't sense the presence of psionic energy. palladium
Here, there seems to be no concept of psionic energy.
"I can't drag it out like this any longer, and I don't know what the galactic situation has become.....
It is impossible to find a way back on your own.
Maria made up her mind and planned to talk to Chu Hua seriously.
That evening, Chu Hua was invited.
And when it comes to Mary's inquiry, he replied like this.
"Let's be honest, I don't need anything to go back, I'm here." palladium
Mary looked incredulous and asked, "What does this mean?" Have you forsaken your people?"
Chu Hua was silent for a moment, then said to her, "Follow me."
He takes Maria to his room and opens the game of Stellars.
After a brief explanation, let Maria feel it for herself.
It wasn't until 24 hours had passed, and the major events in the game had been revealed to her, that the two continued to talk.
Exhaustion, apparently on Mary's face.
She closed her eyes for a moment and sighed, "That is, you think everything we have experienced is false?" palladium
Chu Hua didn't deny it, took a breath and said, "I originally thought that besides you, maybe other rulers would also come here."
"But after these days of exploration, it seems that you are the only one who has come here, and I don't know if we were close at that time
Or is there some special reason."
"Anyway, maybe it wasn't what you thought it was."
Maria silently listened to Chu Hua's words.
At this moment, she really understood.
The lost is just herself.
"No, it's not, I'm pretty sure the experience is real." palladium
Maria looked at Chu Hua and said seriously, "Even if it's for them, I should go back there!"
"You can't feel psionic at all, do you?" Chu Hua shook his head: "Give up, just live here with peace of mind."
Will anyone give up their true self for the sake of an illusory world?
Maybe there will be, for example, some two-dimensional houses, and even some people go to another world with the help of a road roller.
Arthur Clarke wrote a book called The Nine Billion Names of God.
When the presence in the book breaks the fourth wall, panic is the real reaction.
Chu Hua used to believe that those experiences were real, but after so long, the truth seemed to be like this. palladium
These days, he also helped Maria get a residence permit, which can be regarded as creating conditions for her to live here.
People always have to face life.
That night, Maria was visibly depressed and left Chu Hua's room.
The clock goes on.
Just a month later, Maria found Chu Hua again.
The meeting scene is also a bit eye-catching.
Chu Hua leaned against the wall, looking at Maria's cloaked appearance and felt a little distressed. palladium
Now she has a bit of a psyker's crazy appearance.
But when she took off her clothes, the perfect *** still made people feel shocked.
Then under Chu Hua's gaze, a miracle happened.
A breakthrough in the imagination, incredible, appeared in the real world miracle.
As Mary howled in pain, her body shattered, and her left hand and right foot were reduced to nothingness.
Then, a brilliant illusory rose appeared in front of the two of them.
"Now, do you still think it's fake?" palladium
Sweat drenched her hair, and above the Quantum Rose was Maria, who had mutilated hands and feet.
For some reason, Chu Hua remembered Venus, the god of beauty who had a broken hand.
Looking at her like this, Chu Hua felt what it meant to be ashamed of himself.
The next day, despite Chu Hua's obstruction, Maria left the city.
Having lost a hand and a foot, she went inland on crutches.
Chu Hua stood in the room and stared at the quantum rose for two days and two nights, and finally made up his mind....
(Thanks for the support!) Hey! Palladium
