Chapter 2 If there is no accident, there will be an accident
About an hour later, Wang Chao and others lit a bonfire in the public space.
Gale: "That's great, I wanted to start a fire in the cargo compartment on the old Jackdaw, but in the end, I didn't survive for fear of a safety accident." ”
Nimeow: "You're worried about that?" I thought that according to your character, you would start a fire and just give birth. ”
"I've said it many times, I'm crazy, I'm not stupid. I don't want to burn myself. As he spoke, he tore open the package of the cured meat with a loud whistle and began to put the cured meat in the bag on the iron net.
Lily exclaimed, "This won't work! Skewer before baking! I also got organic vegetables, so that one piece of meat and one vegetable were skewered separately! ”
"Whatever, there are iron nets, it doesn't matter if you string it or not, right, father-in-law?"
Wang Chao: "Huh? I? I don't really eat barbecue, so I don't know how to do it. ”
After all, there is no habit of holding barbecue conferences in China, and the last barbecue Wang Chao remembers was a group activity in high school, and the main grilled chicken wings were pickled chicken wings.
Later, when I came across barbecue-related activities, I went to eat Korean barbecue.
In the so-called BBQ conference, Wang Chao's experience in participating in is infinitely close to zero.
So now the experience of surrounding the bonfire with a group of beautiful girls is quite new to Wang Chao.
Gale: "Since my father-in-law has no experience in eating barbecue, then leave it all to me!" When I'm done, put the meat on my breast, and my father-in-law can come and eat it directly! ”
This gameplay will only appear in small movies!
Nimeow: "This gameplay will only appear in small movies!" ”
Ah, thinking in sync.
Thank you Zeni Meow, my mouth replacement!
While the gale was laying out the marinated meat on the barbed wire, Lily was skewering the meat skewers very seriously. Her skewering method is a very standard Western-style skewering method, with vegetables and green and red peppers between the meat.
Wang Chao remembers watching Nobita in Doraemon when he was a child, and they went to barbecue like this.
Nia was also skewering her own meat, and she inserted more vegetables and put very little meat.
Wang Chao couldn't help but joke: "Nia, you don't plan to lose weight after discovering that your body fat is higher than Lily, right?" ”
Nia: "No, I just prefer vegetables. ”
Gale Wind: "Father-in-law, this is your mistake, don't you see through it, even a madman like me understands this kind of human sophistication." ”
"That's not the case! I really like to eat vegetables! Look at this mushroom, this is a real mushroom cultivated in the ship's biological workshop, not a synthetic fake mushroom! ”
Gale: "Hey, isn't this mushroom synthetic?" ”
Nimeow: "No, the ship's creature workshop grows a lot of real vegetables. ”
Helena spoke: "In fact, the taste of things synthesized by food synthesis technology is not much different from that of pure natural, and the natural taste is better is a psychological effect." ”
Gale stuffed the half-cooked slices of meat into his mouth and asked, "Didn't you say that the impurities in the natural product will enhance the taste?" ”
Helena: "Ordinary people can't eat it at all. So nowadays, in addition to having the chef cook the food on the spot, high-end restaurants will also find ways to let you see the process of the material growing, in order to establish in your mind that this is a good thing. ”
Lily: "In that case, why did this ship go to such lengths to build a bioworkshop, which is far less efficient than direct synthesis, right?" ”
Helena: "To keep the crew mentally healthy, of course. Many people on this ship are not space pirates who are used to interstellar travel, but 'terrestrial species' who live on the ground for most of their lives. ”
Wang Chao subconsciously said: "It's a soul bound by gravity." ”
Lily immediately said, "It's just a small rock, watch me push him out!" ”
Wang Chao immediately corrected: "No, no, the first time this sentence appeared in the series was said by Camus, Char just repeated Camus's words, and by the way, the old housekeeper in the 08MS team also said the same thing." ”
Lily was shocked: "Eh, is there such a complicated knowledge?" All I know is Char's words. ”
Wang Chao was about to continue to show off his old two-dimensional knowledge, and suddenly realized one thing: a big beauty like Lily would actually discuss this kind of deep house stalk with me, what kind of science fiction work is this?
Oh, this is really science fiction!
Ni Meow was stunned: "You guy, don't show an emotional expression casually, she is an artificial idol made up by capitalists according to her personality, these are also human designs, deliberately created to satisfy the fantasies of fans who are addicted to useless knowledge." ”
Gale: "Here we go again, Nimeth starts again." ”
Lily smiled, "I'm used to it, and I'll feel wrong if Nimeow doesn't say anything." ”
Helena said to Gale, "Your roast has been taken, and I will roast mine." ”
"You just eat what I baked."
"You are only five mature, my stomach is not prosthetic, I want to eat seventy percent, okay?"
The noisy barbecue meeting went on until late at night on the ship.
In the middle of the night, Wang Chao woke up suddenly, only to find that he had drunk too much with Gale and fell asleep directly by the campfire, he sat up and found Lily lying next to him, covered with a small blanket.
Everyone else slept by the campfire in different positions, the gale being the most heroic, and Nia curled up in a lump like an embryo.
Nimeow was still awake, roasting a small fish on the campfire with an iron fork.
Seeing Wang Chao get up, the girl asked, "What do you say when you arrive at your destination?" ”
"Huh?" Wang Chao didn't react a little.
Nimeow: "When you arrive at your destination, you'll meet people who have settled down." Although we chose a galaxy marked as uninhabited, in this case, the chance of encountering people is quite large, after all, it is a galaxy that has been explored, and there is no need to survey it yourself. ”
In this era, the scientific and technological development of human beings is completely deformed, and the productivity is frighteningly high, but there is no corresponding detection ability, and it takes longer to explore galaxies than to develop galaxies.
Wang Chao: "You said this. Don't we have Helena, if we encounter a small settlement, we will directly brainwash Helena. Eighty percent of this kind of small settlement has not gotten the slightest rumor at all, and it doesn't know the superpowers or the changes in the United Star Cluster, so it's not a casual lie.
"It's you, where did you get the little fish?"
Nimeow: "Our ship's ecosystem is more complete than you think, and there are fish in the water cycle...... Lie to you, this is a fake fish that I printed out of boredom, but it is said to be seventy percent similar to the real fish. ”
Most of the time, food synthesizers do not refine the internal structure of food, but only reproduce the nutrients.
For example, what comes out of printed corn is actually a corn-flavored lump, so it is called a "lump meal".
But if you give the printer specific requirements and provide the drawings, it can also make something with a specific configuration, but the taste - that may require master-level precision adjustment.
Nimeow: "So one thing I just discussed was wrong, the cost of printing food to replicate the taste of real ingredients is too high, so it's better to grow it directly." ”
As she spoke, Nimeow leaned the fish on the fork close to her nose and sniffed, "Well, it doesn't smell like real grilled fish." ”
After saying that, she bit off half of the small fish in one bite, and Kazkaz ate it in two bites.
Wang Chao: "Why didn't you sleep?" ”
Nimeow shrugged: "You're all falling asleep naturally, and if I do, won't only AI control the ship?" What to do with out of the basket? ”
Paige's voice immediately came from the cleaning robot on standby next to me: "Even if I want to do something, I'm still in hyperspace, and I can't do anything." So Miss Nimeow's worries were unwarranted. ”
Nimeow: "Shut up. Lily, the only one here who can control you, is sleeping like a dead pig right now, and who knows what you'll do if I do. ”
Paige: "Miss Nimeow is really suspicious. ”
"I'm probably the last insurance for this team." Saying that, Ni Meow glanced at Wang Chao, "We have a captain who likes to trust others so much, I have to doubt his share." ”
Wang Chao: "Helena is asleep, otherwise you will definitely be diagnosed." ”
Nimeow: "Hmph. ”
As she spoke, she picked up another synthetic fake fish, stretched it out on the campfire, and began to roast it.
Wang Chao was bored, so he picked up a barbecue fork, made a piece of meat and began to roast it, and the fat oozing from the meat dripping into the bonfire made a sizzling sound.
Nimeow: "So what's next?" ”
Wang Chao: "Didn't you decide to mine the camouflage spaceship first, and then go to the middleman who backstabbed me in trouble?" ”
"I didn't ask about such short-term goals. What do we do in the long run? In the past, you were a bounty hunter prodigal who only looked at what was in front of you, and you were probably full of passable and fucking, but now you can't still be like this, right? ”
Wang Chao was silent.
Nimeth sighed, "You really didn't think about it." Also, there are so many girls waiting for you to open the light, you must think of sleeping first. ”
Wang Chao: "I didn't!" ”
"Didn't you?"
Wang Chao: "No. ”
After all, his current mentality is that of the 23-year-old social animal, and now he has a house (spaceship), a car (or a spaceship), and a wife.
So when he saw Helena and Nia who were newly on the ship, he didn't think about it at all, after all, it had already been opened.
Nimeow: "I'll give you a summary of the current situation, now everyone in the galaxy thinks your bragging is true." ”
"That's not what I'm bragging. I even deliberately avoided saying in public what happened to Organization X, because they misunderstood it without permission. ”
Nimeow: "Yes, yes. But others don't care about this, once the tiger skin of the X organization is recognized, we are only afraid that we will be hunted down and killed by the whole galaxy. ”
Wang Chao: "Then find a place where no one is there to disarm and return to the field." The galaxy is so big, there must be a planet with no people, and build small colonies there......"
Nimeow interrupted him, "Will Nia agree?" She's so determined to advance humanity's understanding of hyperspace and gravity engines. ”
Wang Chao was dumbfounded all of a sudden.
Nimeth continued: "You dragged people into the pit, and they were originally scientists who had nothing to do with the world. And Helena, I think she's not explicitly speaking, but she's also interested in exploring human cognition.
"You've put your superpowers in front of them, whetted their appetites, and now you're irresponsibly throwing everything back of your mind, isn't it okay?"
At this time, both Nia and Helena sat up.
Wang Chao: "Why are you all awake?" ”
Nia: "I just happened to have it. ”
Helena: "Humans are more likely to wake up when they hear something about them. But I woke up hungry. ”
After saying that, she picked up the barbecue fork and the rest of the meat, plugged it in and started to roast.
Nia: "Didn't the captain really think about what to do next?" ”
Nimeow said angrily: "He was originally a bounty hunter who could only think of two steps, and these two steps are still who to today and who to tomorrow." ”
Wang Chao could only smile bitterly: after all, the original bounty hunter Wang Chao was a master who took on a mission that was obviously a trap because he wanted to sleep with the Galaxy Singer.
Nia: "Then why don't we just do Project X?" It may have been just a coincidence before, but now we have a master scammer, Miss Helena, don't we? ”
Helena: "Are you asking me to make a detailed scam plan?" ”
"yes, it's going to make you think that Organization X definitely exists."
Helena took the barbecue fork and spun it around the campfire as she pondered.
Wang Chao: "It's over, the fraud master also feels that he has no way to start." ”
"No, it's pretty simple." Helena continued to spin the barbecue fork, "Actually, the real difficulty now is not to deceive well-informed organizations and big people, who already have preconceived notions in their heads, or rather, memes. ”
Wang Chao: "So what's the difficulty?" ”
"For the average person, especially the self-sufficient and very isolated colonies far from the core. It's hard to fool them into believing that there are superpowers and that there is an X-Organization that has dominated the course of human development for thousands of years. ”
Nia: "On the other hand, as long as we don't go to these remote sectors and only operate in the core zone, then it's easy to deceive them?" ”
Helena nodded: "We don't even need to take the initiative to deceive, think about the ship of the Unified Sect." All we need to do is show the 'miracles', I mean, superpowers. It's like the navigators who deceived the natives with a total solar eclipse. ”
Wang Chao: "You mean, every time we go to a core star area, we ask Lily to turn on the radio and sing and dance?" ”
Probably hearing her name, Lily rolled over, and the two lumps of fat rolled up sharply.
She also clasped it with her hand, maybe it was in the wrong position when she just rolled it, and it was a little itchy.
Nimeow: "Isn't that what she does?" ”
"You're right." Wang Chao shrugged.
Helena: "Lily's singing is sure to trigger a series of strange events, such as the mutiny of the strong artificial intelligence and the sudden shutdown of the robotics. With these things, people who originally doubted Organization X and superpowers would be suppressed.
"And then we want to do the rest of the business."
Wang Chao: "I see. ”
Nimeow: "I don't think you should be in the future like 'I have the final say on this ship', let Helena be the captain." ”
At this moment, Page suddenly reported: "This ship is about to leave hyperspace. ”
Nya was shocked: "What? So short a time? Right? You should be in hyperspace for seven or eight hours! ”
Her words stopped abruptly and she looked up at the ceiling of the common space.
Wang Chao: "What? See other gravitational waves? ”
In hyperspace, there are basically no gravitational waves except for the gravitational waves emitted by the ship's gravity engine, and other gravitational wave emission sources can be found, indicating that the spacecraft has returned to conventional space.
Nia: "Wait a minute! I'll look at the star chart! No, we're off course, it's not the galaxy we're going to! ”
Wang Chao was shocked: "We were forcibly dragged out of hyperspace?" ”
"No," Nia frowned, "maybe it was forcibly taken off in the planetary gravity well, and the algorithm for exit coordinates is different." If someone catches you, you have to have a big fleet around you, right? But now there is only a small space station 800,000 kilometers away from us. ”
It seems like so.
Paige: "Communication request!" ”
