Chapter 384 The thirty-seventh bowl of soup (five & six)
She immediately ran out to see other places. There was no one except her in the clothing store. It seemed that there were only one women, and she was the only one who came out.
How did she come out?
At this time, Qinghuan noticed the mucus on her body... Because of her combat suit, her body was not eroded, but this thing was stuck to her body, which was so sticky! Qinghuan likes to clean herself the most. She twisted a little with her hand and looked at it. The viscosity made her dare not withdraw from the combat mode. What she was wearing today was the new clothes she had just bought. If she took it off, she would be disgusted to death if it was covered with mucus after it was taken off.
I took a random tissue from the shop, but as soon as I got the mucus, the tissue was corroded completely. Qinghuan was stunned, so what would she use to wipe it?
So she immediately contacted King. In addition to communication, the bracelet also had a teleportation mode. King appeared in front of Qinghuan the next second. When he saw her, the expression flashed across his face. Qinghuan felt that the expression could be called disgust.
It’s not that I dislike her, it’s that I dislike her.
“How can I clean it up?”
King shook his head and said, "You can't do it yourself, you need to go into the cleaning cabin. We have to go back to the spacecraft first to solve the mucus problem on your body, and then scan and check you all over the body to see if this mucus has caused harm to you."
"No, I don't feel anything." Qinghuan moved his shoulders. "Didn't you say that the combat mode can guarantee that it will not be hurt?"
"But that's not 100%, and the combat mode is not omnipotent. We have never heard of many things, and we don't know whether it can guarantee your health." King said seriously, beckoning Qinghuan to follow him, "Let's go back quickly."
So they ran all the way back to the spaceship, Qinghuan entered the cleaning cabin in her combat suit, lay inside for several hours before coming out, and the combat suit on her body was restored to its cleanliness.
She lifted the mode and quit, then breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm so suffocating." The feeling of not even seeing my eyes and face was so strange. When she touched her face, she felt all the equipment. Most of Qinghuan's fight was hand-to-hand combat, and it was the first time that she was such a high-tech, so she was inevitably a little uncomfortable.
King shook his head helplessly, then asked, "By the way, where have you been? How did you come back?"
Qing Huan thought for a while and said, "Didn't you hear it when we were talking?"
"Have we been on the phone?" King asked. "I've been in touch with you, but I haven't heard of you."
Qinghuan tilted his head in confusion: "Then I don't understand. I only heard you ask me where I was, and then I replied to you, and I never contacted you again. Maybe I was in the belly of a thing, like a vase, but that vase is alive and very tickling."
She nodded seriously, but King was confused. "I don't know what this is."
"By the way, there are so many women in the bottle, all of them are women!"
King shook his head: "If you don't understand, we have to investigate clearly. We will definitely not be able to save this planet, but we cannot let it open the key."
"Don't the key just be found? What does it mean to turn it on?"
"Although these three keys are nominally keys, I don't know what they are." King said a little embarrassedly. "Although I have tracked them for a long time, they have only found one key, and two, scattered in the universe. No one knows which planet they will be on, and no one knows what the so-called key is. If you want to find the whereabouts of the key, you need to open it."
"I don't know the rituals that are opened, but they are all very cruel methods." King said lightly. "I have seen with my own eyes that when they destroy a planet, even massacre is a ritual to get clues to the next planet and find the key step by step."
And this is an extremely long process. Sometimes King will think that he may not know the whereabouts of the key until he dies. A thousand years of life may seem long, but it is extremely short in the universe.
Qinghuan frowned slightly. How many lives will be on a planet? And just to open up another universe, it will destroy the entire planet in one fell swoop? Qinghuan expressed support for unknown exploration, but if such exploration comes at the cost of countless lives, it would be better to destroy it as soon as possible.
"You mean, this woman arrest incident is likely to be done to open the key?"
King nodded: "That's how I think."
"Then what should we do?" Qing Huan asked. "How can we stop them from killing those women? How can we rescue those people? If they cannot kill so many women, does it mean that the planet must give up and turn to find the next planet that meets the requirements? In that case, the time to find the key will be longer."
"You are right. The most important thing is to find the weird bottle first. Such an existence should not be an ordinary minion, right?"
King thought for a while and said, "Generally speaking, the captains of the combat team are responsible for the operations, but the question is, how do we find it? That's not an easy task."
This question also stumped Qinghuan. After a while, she suddenly laughed: "Why don't we have a meal first and think about it after dinner?"
So they got off the boat again and found a restaurant that is said to be very famous for dinner. King never ate on these planets. His parent star's scientific development level is one of the best in the universe. But to this day, except for mechanical destroyers, King does not know the reason for the real destruction of the parent star. He always felt very strange, because his parent star should not suffer such great damage in terms of strength or civilization, but it is true that everyone in the entire parent star, except for him, died after successfully escaping.
Looking at the noodles in the bowl in front of her, King was a little hesitant. Qinghuan also ordered a bowl of special noodles from this restaurant. As soon as she came up, she smelled the fragrance. She took a deep breath and then sighed: "This is much more delicious than compressed cookies. If you don't believe me, try it." As she said that, she demonstrated for King, rolled up the noodles and put them into her mouth.
There is nothing wrong with planets with a slightly behind civilization. At least they still have a desire to satisfy. Unlike those planets with a little progress, they are too lazy to eat food. If they live with capsules, what else is there to live? What is the meaning of living?
Seeing that Qinghuan was eating very deliciously, King hesitated for a moment, and also rolled up the noodles with a fork and put them into his mouth as she was like, and then immediately opened his eyes wide: "This... is delicious!"
After saying that, he didn't wait for Qing Huan to reply, and immediately started eating it quickly. One bowl was not enough, so he ordered another bowl. Qing Huan looked at him as he was eating voraciously and said to him: "Now do you know why I can't accept compressed biscuits? You have been traveling in the universe for so many years and have been to many planets, but have never eaten the food from these planets. No wonder you will be lonely when you are alive. If I were you, I would be lonely too."
Not only is he lonely, but he is also very depressed.
King really doesn't enjoy it, and he doesn't enjoy the word in his dictionary. But the noodles in this restaurant are really delicious. Although he has never seen the ingredients and heard of the name, the deliciousness cannot deceive people. When he thinks about the compressed biscuits he eats on weekdays, King suddenly feels bitter in his mouth - he seems to no longer want to eat compressed biscuits.
"You are lucky. I am very good at cooking. When we leave here, we buy more ingredients. You took me in and I will be responsible for cooking for you." Qing Huan took a sip of the soup and said happily.
Compared to feelings, food is easier to make her feel satisfied and happy.
King didn't agree with it. He decided to put away all the compressed biscuits after he went back and would never eat them until he had no choice!
Qinghuan ate relatively slowly. When King finished her second bowl, the first bowl had not been completely resolved. She had to chew it slowly. Now there is no shortage of time. If the wind blows away the clouds, wouldn’t it be a big shame for the cow to chew peonies?
But before she finished her bowl, she heard the screams of women again. Qinghuan immediately put down her fork and looked at King. The two of them immediately left the noodle shop. There was a square where the woman was missing.
They seemed to be grabbed by a hand that appeared out of thin air and put it in their pockets! Qinghuan didn't see clearly when she disappeared, and now she saw it clearly - isn't that just a hand! A transparent hand!
At this moment, King suddenly held her hand. Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, looking at the palms of the two holding each other, King looked at everything around him with alert. He didn't think much, but he didn't want Qinghuan to disappear in front of him anymore. He had no companion for a long time, so he would never allow him to lose his friend again. If he held Qinghuan's hand, if she would disappear like other women, he would not let her be alone with her.
But a strange scene happened, and the women in the square disappeared one by one, from the front to the back, Qinghuan passed by! It was as if Qinghuan was immune!
When all the women disappeared, Qinghuan said in surprise: "Will you catch me this time?"
King was also stunned: "How could this happen?"
Qinghuan thought she would be taken away again. She left the last time, but those women were still left in a strange bottle. Now she didn't even know how to find the bottle, let alone know the structure of the bottle. "It's so troublesome."
At this time, King suddenly realized that he was still holding someone's hand, and immediately let go as if he was burned, and his handsome face turned slightly red. Qinghuan didn't care, but said, "At this speed, I don't think it will take long for women to disappear from this planet. But what exactly can they do if women do?"
King shook his head and said he didn't know either.
The two walked forward together. Not long after they walked far, they heard screams again. But this time they were not adult women, but just a little girl who listened to the sound.
really!
But what is equally surprising is that the little girl seems to be immune too! She cried because her mother was caught! Qinghuan bent down and asked softly: "Little sister, stop crying. Where is your home? Can I take you home?"
The little girl rubbed her swollen eyes: "Mom, mom..."
Qinghuan touched her head and felt for the first time that she seemed to be powerless. If she insisted on the scientific spirit of a female ghost, she could not use the power that did not belong to this world. And from the current perspective, let alone finding a mother for the little girl, she was not even very clear about the structure of this world. Everything was just a little bit of knowledge, everything was implanted from the knowledge of the bracelet, not what she learned by herself.
Qinghuan is very fond of children, and the child was quickly coaxed by her. Qinghuan smiled, touched the child's head, and after learning the address of her house, he held her little hand and walked forward. King had never had any experience with the child, so he didn't speak, but just followed quietly, listening to Qinghuan's conversation with the child.
"Where has mom gone?"
"Mom... is gone." The little girl was only at kindergarten and her language organization skills were not strong enough, so she could only barely tell Qinghuan what was going on. From her intermittent words, Qinghuan roughly learned that her mother was telling her to buy her ice cream, but she suddenly disappeared the next second, and then she started crying.
It must be the victim among those women, but Qinghuan doesn’t understand, what’s the use of catching women?
At this moment, mechanical destroyers suddenly jumped out of the bushes around them. They pressed their weapons step by step, staring at King with their eyes tightly.
They may not know Qinghuan, but King knows them all. It is this man who disturbed their plans many times, causing many of them to be punished for it, always against them and have been hated by their masters for many years!
In name, he is a prince, but in fact he is just a stray dog!
Qinghuan and King back to back, leaving no dead corners for dangerous enemies. King held the little girl in his arms with one hand and asked Qinghuan in a low voice: "Can it be solved?"
"Don't worry, I can kill them with bracelets." As if I wanted to prove myself, after saying this, Qinghuan quickly rushed into the crowd of mechanical destroyers, using only fists, and not even taking out the weapons.
This is the first time Qinghuan has used a bracelet with real guns and live ammunition. This feeling is really great. It is somewhat similar to using mana but not exactly the same. After destroying the core of a mechanical destroyer with one punch, Qinghuan sighed: Technology is progress.
Can she bring this thing back to Naihe Bridge and carry it with her to protect herself in the future?
The dozens of destroyers took a total of five minutes to deal with them. It could have been faster, but they all had to be distracted to protect the little girl, afraid that she would be injured.
"These are just medium and low-level mechanical destroyers. We don't need to enter combat mode to solve them. If we encounter advanced mechanical destroyers, we must enter combat mode to have enough power to kill them." King put the little girl's hand in Qinghuan's palm and did not forget to teach her about science.
Qing Huan nodded in a rising posture and said that she remembered it, and sent the little girl home with King.
When the little girl's father heard that his wife was missing, he immediately fell to the ground. But he was worried about his daughter, and he was only fragile for a few seconds and said to the little girl: "Can you go to the living room to find grandma? Grandma has prepared snacks for you."
The little girl nodded obediently and waved her hands to Qinghuan and King again: "Good sister and brother, goodbye."
"Goodbye." Qing Huan smiled and waved at her.
As soon as the little girl left, the man clenched his fists and asked, "Did my wife - did my wife disappear inexplicably like other women?"
King said, "That's right."
"It's a kidnapping case, right? The news is about a kidnapping case. Who are you? Are you a policeman?" the man asked anxiously. "My wife will not be a problem, right? You can definitely save her, right?"
"We will do our best." Qinghuan smiled at the man. "Don't you mind if I ask you a few questions, right?"
"You ask."
"In the past few days, it was from the kidnapping case. Have you noticed any strange things? Any strange voice or someone you have never seen before can describe something wrong."
The man thought about it and shook his head: "No... nothing is wrong. We went to have dinner together on our wedding anniversary a few days ago. My wife is normal, nothing is wrong. Why do you ask this? Does this have anything to do with my wife being kidnapped? Is it someone we know?"
He asked nervously, and Qinghuan quickly comforted him: "No, we just want to know more about her, that's all."
After saying a few more words, after saying goodbye to the man, whether it is Qinghuan or King, they feel that they have no idea how to start. Because they don’t know where to start. These missing women, regardless of height, shortness, fatness, thinness, are between fifteen and forty years old, young and healthy, and beautiful and ugly. And they have nothing in common except age, so it is unlikely that they will start from these women to find clues, and they must think of other ways.
Since they couldn't find the strange bottle, they had to find a mechanical destroyer that was easier to find. These guys usually choose to mimic the planets, which means that the people passing by them are likely to be mechanical destroyers.
Press the button to enter the scanning mode, and you can clearly see through the body structure of the Stein people. Their bodies are warm and they are all small red dots. But mechanical destroyers are not like this. They have no life and are just mechanical bodies, so they are very different from humans.
After negotiation, Qinghuan and King decided to search separately, and if one party has any news, they will notify the other party.
This is in battle, they are friends who fight side by side, so there is no situation where I go on adventures alone but hide them from you.
At least Qinghuan does not have it, nor does King.
