"Has your speech always been so artistic?"

[Squidward smiled lightly, looking up at the ceiling covered with spider webs for no reason...]

"Actually, I yearn for the path you mentioned, but if the price of joining you is to break with the Norwegian government, then I have to think about my future. After all, my behavior is tantamount to betrayal for Norwegian civilization... "

"I have even predicted what will happen next. First of all, we will definitely be on the star cluster's wanted list, because when a newborn civilization is betrayed by the Destiny, it will always hurt the face of the civilization. This is something that no ruler can tolerate. Yes, and we are on the wanted list..."

[He pointed helplessly at the top of his head...]

"There is no way to leave this star cluster, because even if we set off from the star port closest to the edge of the star cluster, it will take us at least ten years to leave this star cluster, let alone reach an alien star cluster. A rough estimate is that this time will be at least It will take 20 years. In this case, let’s not talk about the particle storms and meteor swarms that we may encounter in this process. Let’s just talk about energy, food, and dormant warehouses, a full 20 years of reserves. How about this? solve?"

[Before I could answer my question, he answered his question with a slight frown...]

"To tell you the truth, if you want to pack enough rations for five people for 20 years, even if they all feed on energy blocks, the volume will be equivalent to an entire butterfly beast. Plus other miscellaneous machine rooms, that is It is said that if we want to reach the edge of the star cluster, the hull must be at least the size of three butterfly beasts. However, this is precisely the problem, and you should also know..."

[While explaining, he drew a circle with a pen...]

"The large size means that the error tolerance rate is low when encountering danger. Compared with the size of a butterfly beast, which is comparable to a behemoth, our survival rate when encountering a meteor swarm is probably less than one-third of the former. One, because not only are we three times larger than the Butterfly Nether Beast, but our weight is also three times larger, so the corresponding flexibility is... Phew, other than that..."

[For some reason, Brother Squidward suddenly stopped talking as he was talking. He seemed to be thinking of something, and he sighed softly as if he was relieved...]

"Well, actually no matter how much you say, it's the same. We can't leave this star cluster based on our own abilities. At the same time, we are also on the wanted list, so no civilization will dare to accept us, and we want to survive. Either go to the garbage planet and become a refugee, or join the cleaning team and become a bad guy. In short, the ending will not be much better. But, to be honest, you did provide me with a new idea. If...I mean if, if there is one day…"

[He lowered his head silently and looked at his tentacles, his eyes shining with depth and vastness like stars...]

"I'm tired of being a puppet. I will definitely leave behind all life, death, honor and disgrace, and try to escape from this star cluster. Even if I will be swallowed up by meteor swarms and particle storms, I will have no regrets. At that time, I I no longer have any worries, I just want to find my true self, but now...I'm sorry!"

[He raised his head, his eyes were sincere and at the same time he solemnly stated his position...]

"I can't betray my civilization, let alone my people, so that's it for today. I can guarantee that no third person will know about this conversation between us, but now, I feel like I should leave Already…”

"Are you in a hurry to leave?"

[Seeing him preparing to leave, I spread my hands with a smile, then changed my posture and crossed my legs...]

"It seems that you misunderstood what I just said. Haha, it seems that I never said from the beginning to the end that the way for us to leave this star cluster is to take our own ship, right?"

"Then you are..."

[Squidward subconsciously stopped, a flash of thought flashed in his eyes, and the next second his eyes lit up...]

"Oh~ Do you want to take advantage of the opportunity to visit the cosmic wall to escape from this star cluster? Well... this is indeed a good way, but... how do you convince the alien envoys? With their technological level and civilization strength, I think It’s hard to be impressed by your conditions, and no civilization can tolerate traitors, let alone adding fuel to the fire with your own hands..."

"Who says we need to impress him?!"

"Huh? Then how do you..."

"Ha ha…"

[Looking at Brother Squidward’s puzzled face, I smiled happily, just shrugged casually, then faced his astonished gaze, and without hesitation gave what I thought was the most correct answer. …]

"We just need to kill him!"

.........

[While braised bullfrog and five-nut mooncakes were in progress, Squidward and I ended our conversation and returned to the car...]

[Close the car door with a "snap", I hold the battery-shaped cigarette paste in my hand, shake it to show off to the three of them, then insert it into my nostrils, take a deep breath, and spit out white smoke. , sighing slightly...]

"Look at this family. It is indeed a nascent civilization. They are generous in their spending. They even give away such rare things..."

"Huh? Is this mist ointment?"

[Uncle Wrench, who was well-informed, came over with gleaming eyes, staring enviously at the mist paste in my nostrils that had not completely dissolved, looking like he wanted to eat boogers...]

"This is indeed a good thing, especially for old smokers like us, who know the benefits of this thing very well..."

"I don't see any difference..."

[The little crocodile also came over, with a puzzled look on his face...]

"Isn't it all chemical tobacco?"

"No, it's completely different..."

[Uncle Wrench shook the electronic cigarette in his hand, but his eyes were fixed on the small white smoke coming out of my nostrils, with a bit of pity and a bit of longing...]

"Whether it is natural tobacco or chemical tobacco, it will have a more or less negative impact on the human body, especially lung function and cardiovascular disease, because this is inevitable, but mist-soluble ointment is different, as long as it is not some For a very small number of allergic people, it can be said to be completely harmless to the human body, and even has beneficial effects..."

"For example, broadening the brain power and improving reaction, and temporarily improving the depth of thinking and memory storage. Although the effects are short-lived, as long as you can persist in taking the mist-soluble ointment, you can still develop your brain and so on..."

[To be honest, I really didn’t expect that there were so many people here, including the little crocodile, who kept marveling at it, which made me a little embarrassed, but Brother Squidward has left after all. So apart from lamenting his generosity, all I can do is...]

"Take it, Uncle Wrench!"
