Pretend to be a fish and eat the boss [Interstellar]

Xin Chen looked at Shangxilou with anticipation in his heart and eyes.

He was working well in the factory, but after being called away by a person from the logistics department, he was shot and pushed into the water. After finally climbing ashore, he was knocked unconscious and put into a black box.

The pitch-black box bumped back and forth, and the glass inside unexpectedly shattered, and there were shards everywhere, scratching him all over.Fortunately, he is a mermaid, and his self-healing ability is much stronger than that of humans, so he was not pierced to death by the glass.However, he repeated many times along the way, and the wound never broke. Fortunately, the person in front of him rescued him.

And I don't know why, Xin Chen, who was originally somewhat face-blind, sees all human beings in the same way, but when he sees the person in front of him, he has a different impression.

What a handsome man.

Tall and straight, with deep features, short black hair is neat and clean, gray-blue eyes are calm and gentle, although the white shirt and black trousers are stained with water, they are still very ironed, and he looks like a reliable and trustworthy person.

Looking at the trust in Xin Chen's eyes, Shang Xilou felt a little weird for a moment, but he ignored that feeling and continued to ask, "Where are you from?"

Xin Chen tilted his head, not understanding why Shang Xilou asked this question, didn't he just come from the workshop?

"Light energy workshop." Xin Chen answered truthfully.

Shang Xilou's eyes were a little cold, and he was a little annoyed at Xin Chen's pretending to be confused, "If you don't tell the truth, I won't send you back."

Xin Chen saw Shang Xilou's disgust, shrank his head timidly, and whispered, "I'm not lying."

Shang Xilou looked at Xin Chen, seeing that Xin Chen was just looking at him with wide eyes, he didn't continue to ask, but turned and went into the bedroom.

After a while, Shang Xilou came out again, handed a set of underwear to Xin Chen, and asked, "Will you have a bath?"

Xin Chen nodded.

Shang Xilou said, "Go take a shower and change your clothes."

Xin Chen then took the clothes, followed Shang Xilou's instructions, and went into the bathroom.Xin Chen used to take a bath in the public bathroom, never used a separate bathroom, it was very fresh for a while, he felt around, looked around, dawdled for a while before starting to take a bath.

Wisps of water washed over his body, and there were no transparent scales flashing on his legs, but because he wasn't soaked in the water, the fish's tail didn't appear.

Xin Chen took a shower comfortably, changed into loose clothes and went out, only to find that Shang Xilou had already changed, and was sitting on the sofa playing with the optical brain.Seeing Xin Chen coming out, he immediately closed the computer and stood up.

Only then did Xin Chen notice that Shang Xilou had a black schoolbag by his hand, as if he was planning to go out.

Xin Chen tugged at his sleeves which were too wide, and asked nervously, "Well, can I ask a question?"

"Ask." Shang Xilou doesn't like people who hesitate, but anyway, he won't see Xin Chen again soon.

"Is this a human society?" Xin Chen asked.When he just took a shower, he had already figured it out. He was obviously not in the Jingneng factory anymore. This place was probably a human society.

Human society, that is the legendary place, only the best mermaids have the opportunity to leave the crystal energy factory and live in human society.Is he already qualified?That's why people from the logistics department sent him here?But why not tell him clearly?Without giving him any guidance, he has no understanding of human society and no coins in this world, so how can he live?

Shang Xilou looked at Xin Chen and said flatly, "That's right."

"Ah." Xin Chen had such a frustrated expression.

Shang Xilou resisted the urge to ask, and said, "Let's go, you can't stay here, and I won't support you."

Xin Chen hummed, and said very seriously, "I know, sir, I don't need others to support me, I can work. Thank you very much, get me out of the box, uh, please."

As Xin Chen said, he walked up to Shang Xilou, as if he was honestly going out with Shang Xilou.

Shang Xilou nodded, very satisfied with the obedience of this gift.He found a pair of slippers for Xin Chen. There was nothing he could do. Xin Chen's feet were too delicate, and his shoes were almost like slippers. Anyway, it was summer, so it would be more convenient to wear slippers.

Xin Chen put on his slippers and went out with Shang Xilou. Along the way, he met many human beings, who greeted Shang Xilou enthusiastically, and then stared at Xin Chen strangely.Xin Chen has never seen so many humans. In the factory, humans are the leaders.So he lowered his head, looked at his nose, nose and heart, and followed Shang Xilou closely.

Shang Xilou smiled appropriately and explained to every student he met that this was a friend of his who came to see him.Anyway, today was his birthday, and it was normal to have visitors. As for the visitors wearing loose and ill-fitting clothes, it could only be that the visitors were unique.

Shang Xilou took Xin Chen to the small garden downstairs, and handed a round button card to Xin Chen, "Here is one hundred thousand star coins, you take it."

"Star coin? Is it a kind of money?" Xin Chen didn't answer.

"That's right." Shang Xilou didn't know what Xin Chen's background was, but obviously, Xin Chen would not be a normal interstellar citizen.Give Xin Chen some cash, at least so that he will not starve to death, it is also his fault.

"I can't, I didn't work for you, how can I take your money." Xin Chen reached out and pushed Shang Xilou's hand back, shaking his head seriously.

Shang Xilou always felt that the direction of the conversation was a bit weird, very similar to the kind of TV series his mother liked to watch.But he didn't struggle, and decisively took back the button card, "Then, goodbye, I'm going to class."

"Okay, goodbye." Xin Chen said, smiling and waving.

Shang Xilou finally showed a smile to Xin Chen, then turned around and walked away with great strides.

Looking at the broad back of Shang Xilou, Xin Chen felt suddenly empty in his heart, feeling a little dazed for a moment.What should he do?He straightened his clothes again, took a deep breath, and walked out of the small garden.

The most important thing now is to fill your stomach.Because he was hungry, he didn't know how many days had passed, but he felt hungry in the box.When he was in Jingneng Factory, he ate one mermaid candy every day, and he was full of energy all day long.Now I have to find a way to buy a mermaid candy.

Xinchen looked around for a long time, and locked on a huge supermarket. There is also a supermarket in Area A of the Jingneng factory. He bought human food there. Although he was not very hungry, it was delicious.

Xin Chen tidied up his clothes and walked towards the supermarket.

The owner of the supermarket is a fat woman with curly hair, who looks very kind.Xin Chen smiled and waved to the boss, saying hello, "Hello."

The boss glanced at Xin Chen with a weird expression on his face, but he politely replied hello.

"Can I work here with you? I can convert crystal energy into light energy." Xin Chen summoned up his courage and said quickly.

The boss stared at Xin Chen, the kindness on her face gradually faded, she waved her hand impatiently, "What kind of crystal energy is converted into light energy, you must be mentally ill. Besides, I don't recruit people here."

"Then can I help you with other tasks? I have great strength, and I just want a mermaid candy." Xin Chen did not give up and said again.

The boss looked at Xin Chen, bored already appeared in her eyes, but she still stood up, walked to a shelf, and gave him a colorful small bag.

The boss handed the small bag to Xin Chen, and said, "Mermaid candy, here you go. Hurry up."

Xin Chen didn't expect that the boss would be so kind, and gave him fish candy without him having to do any work. He hurriedly bowed to the boss, "Thank you."

The boss was stunned again, feeling that he has neurosis every year, and this year he was particularly neurotic, so he kicked Xin Chen out.

Holding the mermaid candy, Xin Chen left the supermarket, feeling that human society is so wonderful.The man just gave him money, but now the boss gives him fish candy, without asking him for anything in return, it's so kind.He must find a job and find a way to repay the two of them.

Xin Chen happily opened the packet with mermaid jellybeans written on it, and ate the mermaid-shaped candies inside.The candy was soft and sweet, completely different from the mermaid candy he had eaten before, but it was also delicious.

After eating the mermaid candy, Xin Chen started looking for a job full of energy.

At this time, Shangxilou was teaching the history of economics in the classroom.It was rare for him to be inattentive, thinking about the gift Qin Yufei gave him all the time.He wasn't worried that Xin Chen would make any troubles, he quietly scanned Xin Chen's body, there was no electronic equipment inside.That is to say, Xin Chen cannot record or video record, as long as Xin Chen is not found beside him, Xin Chen has nothing to do with him.Even if Xin Chen was discovered by the police and said that he had accepted him, without evidence, he or Qin Yufei could not be treated as such.

He was just inexplicable, always thinking of those blank eyes.

Xin Chen's pupils are different from normal people's, they are as transparent as crystal, and they look extraordinarily pure.In fact, plastic surgery can make such eyes, but there will inevitably be some marks, which do not look so perfect.Xin Chen's eyes have no trace of surgery at all, they are natural and pure.

After class in the afternoon, Shang Xilou walked back with his classmates, discussing the birthday party in the evening while walking.That's right, Shangxilou prepared a birthday party and invited many acquaintances. This is also a way to expand and stabilize the social network.

The number of people walking together gradually decreased, and when Shang Xilou returned to his dormitory, there was only one person left beside him.The two walked towards the elevator talking and laughing, and one inadvertently, Shang Xilou noticed a figure beside the garden.

The thin boy, wearing loose and ill-fitting clothes, sat curled up on the edge of the flower bed, staring blankly in a certain direction.Shang Xilou was curious for a moment, followed his gaze, and saw the oven on the counter in the supermarket downstairs, with rows of grilled sausages greasy on it.

Is he hungry?Shang Xilou thought about this question, and involuntarily touched the button card in his pocket.

Xin Chen was indeed hungry. For some reason, the mermaid candy didn't relieve his hunger at all.However, hunger did not affect his physical strength. He spent the whole afternoon inquiring from door to door, hoping to find a job and earn money to buy some mermaid candies.It's a pity that when he asked those bosses whether they would hire crystal energy conversion workers, the reaction of those bosses was exactly the same as that of the supermarket boss, saying that there was something wrong with him, and then drove him away.

He wandered around for a long time, not only failed to find a job, but also lost his way, and finally turned back to the garden that was separated from Shangxi Building.He didn't know what was wrong with the mermaid candy, but it didn't relieve his hunger at all, so he could only sit on the edge of the flower bed and worry.

He looked at the people coming in and out of the supermarket. Many people bought the greasy food on a stick with a stick inserted, and they ate very sweetly.It must be human food. It looks delicious. I don't know if he can eat it, and if it can fill his stomach.

Just as he was rubbing his nose, trying to stop his worthless peeping, a paper bag appeared in front of him, inside the paper bag were packed ten shiny sticks of food.

Xin Chen suddenly raised his head, and saw a handsome face that seemed to glow.
