Chapter 126 Anjie
A slender calf with a wonderful curve poked out of the hatch of the spacecraft, and then stepped out without hesitation.
On the Sea Rat Star, this is not a common sight. A girl with complicated and gorgeous clothes actually stepped here.
Li Anjie's foot on the land seemed to be due to the rain not long ago. The soft land made the heel of her high-heeled shoes under her feet sink a distance, which made her unhappy mood worse.
"What a bad place is this!" As Li Anjie stepped forward, he complained, "It's just a huge mud pond. My shoes are about to be corroded by the soil here!" These are the new shoes given to me by the master!"
"This is the Sea Rat Star, a huge mud pond floating in the universe. Maybe next time you come here, you will remember not to wear high heels." With the voice, a woman in a simple white nun's uniform came out of the spaceship.
"You should at least find a dry place to land, such as the space port or the airport!"
"There is no such place for Sea Rat." The young woman shrugged her shoulders slightly.
"What bad luck!" Li Anjie muttered and complained, "I don't know what this mud is. It's sticky, and I don't know whether it can be wiped off or not. It's almost crazy!" My shoes are going to be ruined! Elizabeth, you should be able to tell me now, why on earth did we come to such a bad place? I miss the master! I want to go home!"
For a moment, Elizabeth's heart ached slightly, because she knew that the girl's "home" was not with herself or the place where she lived now. Of course, the premise was that if the place where she lived was a residence. The "home" mentioned by the girl Li Anjie is the place where her master lives in seclusion. Unexpectedly, those nagging bean sprouts can bring Li Anjie a better feeling of home than the mother who is also a human. Thinking of this, Elizabeth wants to laugh and cry.
But after all, Elizabeth was a former combat nun and a former judge. The softness in her heart was only for a moment. Soon, she returned her heart to normal - as cold and hard as an iron stone. So Elizabeth smiled and said to the girl, "Angel, I remember I told you to be polite, especially to your elders. When you see your elders, you should use a respectful name instead of calling your name directly. Do you remember?"
"Oh, my emperor," the girl looked up to the sky and sighed. Then she saw the cold smile on Elizabeth's face, and then raised her hands and surrendered and said, "Okay, okay, I remember, I'm a genius, not an old guy who is getting old. How can I forget something?"
Elizabeth ignored the obvious attack in the girl's words, but still asked with a smile, "What should you call me?"
Li Anjie gritted his teeth and took a deep breath. After a while, he spit out the two simplest pronunciations: "Mom! Mom!"
"Yes, that's good, good boy." As Elizabeth spoke, she stretched out her hand and patted the girl's head slightly stiffly, while the girl turned her head aside and dodged Elizabeth's hand angrily. Elizabeth just smiled and said carelessly, "In order to reward you, I'll tell you why we're here now. When we come to this desolate Sea Rat Star, the first thing we need to do is, of course, to collect information. This is almost what all outsiders do. Let's do it step by step. First of all, you What you need to know is about the history of this planet..."
Sea Rat Star is in an inconspicuous corner of the vast Far East of the empire. This planet is so desolate and inconspicuous that you can't find the galaxy where this planet is located in the imperial star map published in many places. In the corner of the regional data archive of the Imperial Command, there is a short page of speculation about the battle that happened on the Sea Rat.
"Although I understand that this is not the attitude of a scholar, I must say that among so many galaxies I have walked, this is the ugliest planet I have ever seen, and I also believe that it will always occupy this first throne in the future. It is really ugly, Sea Rat. The sea is dirty gray, just like the color of dirty water left after being washed in a bucket with a dirty mop, and the ocean occupies more than 80% of the area of the planet, so from the universe, the color of this star is dirty gray. This is not the color of nature. Obviously, the planet has been polluted, and the purpose of my trip is to find the cause and source of the pollution for Sir Say. Then there is a complex analysis of data analysis, and until the end, it is a simple conclusion. "In a word, due to the lack of specific and strong evidence for too long time, any detailed affirmative argument becomes meaningless. Here I can only infer from the mistakes I see now. Tens of thousands of years ago, There was a huge battle on the planet known as the Sea Rat Star. Both sides of the battle used powerful weapons. The two sides of the battle and the final winner were unknown, but the final result was obvious. The terrible battle was devastating to the ecology and environment of the planet. Destruction, the sea rat's ocean has been permanently polluted. The only creature that can survive in this gray ocean is the sea rat.
"Now," Elizabeth asked, "What do you know?"
"The past that may exist on this dirty planet."
"Yes, let's take a look at the current state of this planet. Due to the special geographical environment, the owner of this planet, Sir Say's family, have long given up here after learning that the pollution is irreversible. The nobles pay attention to the quality of life. They will not let themselves live in a mud pond. At that time, the planet was entrusted to three large enterprises. Now these three large enterprises have already merged into a giant enterprise, that is, the actual controller of the planet - United Water Source Company. United Water Source Company controls the only water source channel on the planet. On this planet, if you want to drink clean water without pollution and radiation, you can only buy it from Union Water Source Company. At the same time, due to the special geographical location of the universe, this large enterprise also maintains close ties with many cosmic pirates, well-known hunter associations in the Far East, and various secret churches. Criminals, murderers, traitors, cultists, and all kinds of scum go in and out of the Sea Rat Star. If you take out a gun and shoot at will in this city, you can rest assured that there will be no innocent person among the dead. The Sea Rat Star is a paradise for criminals. All kinds of hidden unknown secrets are circulating here. The laws of the empire can't play any role here. Even the kindness of the emperor can't save the scum here. The hounds of the Ministry of Legal Affairs will never have a chance to know what kind of evil is hidden under the gray of the Sea Rat Star. "
"That is to say, this planet is not only a mud pond, but also all kinds of maggots in this mud pond?"
"Accurate metaphor."
"Oh, my God, mom, why do we have to come to such a place? If you want to get any information, you can tell me, and I can do it for you directly. Don't be so troublesome. Let's go straight to the street to find a few bastards, catch them back, and torture them. Don't we know everything? You don't have to lie to me. Interrove and torture are your specialty. My master said that your technology in this regard is the best in the universe.
Elizabeth just shook her head and sighed, "My stupid daughter, there are many ways to get information, but you choose the most direct and laborious way. Well, let's go. Let's go for a drink first. Let's hear what's new in the Far East recently.
"Oh," Li Anjie sighed, "It's all here. Well, let's go for a drink."
The wilderness of Sea Rat Star is dangerous. The poor living at the bottom, the uncivilized barbarians, those ignorant lower hooligans, and a small number of mutants roam in the wilderness, threatening the lives of travelers at any time. Of course, compared with humans, those mutant creatures are the safest. And all these dangers did not exist for Elizabeth and Anjie Lee. Under the leadership of Elizabeth, the two easily swaggered in the wilderness. In just half a day, a group of "friendly" people with shotguns and strange explosive hairstyles came to them. Elizabeth easily convinced the young people who couldn't figure out the situation with the weapons in her hand and several corpses that had been blown off by her head. In this way, the two women got a modified horsepower SUV. In just one day, they came to a bustling city.
"Sweet Water City is the only city on the planet that retains strict order, because the headquarters of the United Water Source Company is in the city. Have you seen the building made entirely of glass? It's exactly 365 floors, the tallest building on the planet. While driving an SUV skillfully through the streets and alleys, Elizabeth introduced the local situation to Li Anjie. "Now we are going to a bar. As I said, this is the paradise of criminals, and this 'sweet water city' is the safest place in heaven. It is far away from the emperor. The country's lackeys and laws are also protected by the United Water Source Company. The scum hardly need to worry about anything here, so it will give those desperate people who have been wandering between death for a long time a sense of security. Of course, this sense of security is false, but that's what they need. And this sense of security is dangerous. A false sense of security will make people relax their vigilance and lower their atrium, especially after a few glasses of wine. They will take the initiative to tell a lot of secrets without even asking.
With this, the SUV turned a few corners and finally entered an underground garage hidden in the alley. After parking, Elizabeth walked to an iron door in the corner of the garage. On the door hung a vulgar sign made of red and green neon lights, "One Shot to the Head". Elizabeth raised her hand with a specific The rhythm knocked on the door.
A small window above the iron gate opened, revealing a pair of vigilant eyes, "Who!?" The man in the room asked.
"It's me, nun!"
The vigilant eyes are a little impatient, "Sister? Who is the nun?
Elizabeth even came in a hurry to show an impatient look, and there was a muffled sound in the room. The vigilant eyes flew away from the small window in a strange way, and then there was a hurried sound at the iron gate. The door was opened quickly, and a burly light in a black suit. The head man was standing at the door. The moment he saw Elizabeth, the bald man quickly bent down. He bowed his respect for Elizabeth with a standard 90-degree bow. "I'm really sorry, Sister, the boy just now is new. He doesn't know you, so he neglects you."
The moment he heard Elizabeth's voice, the bald head knew that the nun was coming. Then he heard the words of the idiot newcomer without any hesitation. He kicked the newcomer with a bald head, and then opened the door nervously and quickly. He just hoped that his remedy would make the adult in front of him feel better.
"Oh," Elizabeth took a bald head and asked easily, "So he hasn't heard my name?"
Just for a moment, the bald head was full of sweat. The bald man said nervously, "Well, you're kidding. Who doesn't know your name on this street? That boy is your admirer. He can't imagine that the legend is standing in front of him.
The young man who had just been kicked aside stood up quickly, and then bent down and bowed desperately. The young man's forehead was about to stick to his calf.
"Forget it, I don't have time to talk to you. Is the ' bartender' there?"
"Yes, of course, please come in and go this way." At this point, the bald head seemed to find the beautiful girl who followed Elizabeth. He asked respectfully, "What is this beautiful lady?"
"What, do I still need to report to you who follows me?"
This sentence almost made the bald head lie directly on the ground. He bent down again and said respectfully, "Your Excellency, Sister, please don't misunderstand. How can I be qualified to know who this young lady is, but," the bald man said slightly embarrassedly, "It's just that there is always a name."
"Call her Miss."
"Okay, thank you very much, nuns and young lady. Please go this way. There are stairs here. Please take your time." Under the guidance of the bald head, the two walked down several layers of iron stairs, opened a wooden door wrapped in cotton cloth, and were hit by a substantial and violent sound wave.
The sudden change made Li Anjie nervous. The long-term training made her make a natural habit move. The girl lightly jumped back a small step, her back arched like a cat, and her hand was put on the knife handle at her waist. But she soon found something unusual. The oncoming impact was not any kind of attack. Her mother Elizabeth did not respond. Instead, she turned around and smiled at herself. Looking at the old woman, she had expected this moment.
Then Elizabeth came to Anjie Li's ear and shouted, "This is a 'bar'. It's a little noisy most of the time, but don't worry too much. I'm here."
Li Anjie curled his lips and whispered, "I believe you have a ghost." Despite this, her hand still left the handle of the knife.
The two walked into the bar called "one shot in the head" built underground with the respectful bald head. In the middle of the bar is the dance floor. All kinds of lights sway and flash, shining all the people on the dance floor. People often hide in the shadows, and occasionally they are swept by the suddenly shaking lights. Everyone They were all intoxicated by the violent sound of music. They shook their heads, swayed their bodies irrationally, and shook their heads crazily with the heavy bass and crazy beats. In the middle of the dance floor, the band and singer were working hard, and the singer was holding the microphone and making a crazy, hysterical roar.
In the shadow of the sofa in the corner of the bar, all kinds of interesting things happen. Of course, such a shadow cannot block Li Anjie's eyes. The girl observes everything here with great interest. Some people are injecting a kind of ** into their arms with syringes, and some people are using a small tube to He sucked a powder in his nose, and some young men and women hugged each other, and they were so forgetful.
The fierce music, the people in the shadows doing all kinds of things happily soon culminated in Li Anjie's curiosity. If Elizabeth hadn't pulled her, she would almost have stood there and watched.
The two followed the bald head across the dance floor, walked to the other side of the bar, and opened another door. After the door was closed, the three people stayed away from the violent music and noisy crowd, and then went up the stairs. The bald head attentively pushed the door open for Elizabeth and said, "This is the 'barist' room. He is waiting for you. "
"Hey hey, let's see who's here, my dear 'sister'. I didn't expect you to come here to see me, an old man. I'm so happy." As soon as he entered the door, an old man with a beautiful short beard and a classic black suit came to Elizabeth with his arms open.
Elizabeth smiled, opened her arms and greeted her, "It's been a long time, bartender."
The two hugged each other tightly and patted each other on the back. Neither of them. Maybe they don't know each other's real name. They still use nicknames to call each other.
"Five years, six months and three days, my dear nun, we have been separated for five years, six months and three days. It's really been a long time."
