wandering planet

The Black Sea transfer station is not only the only transfer station set up by Marseille on the 18 route, but also the first transfer station set up by Marseille outside the Alpha galaxy.

As a transit hub for dozens of routes such as 18, 623, 55, and 20, there is not only a well-equipped space port on the Black Sea, but also a large number of space ships that dock or replenish supplies.Since the focus of Marseille's exploration has shifted to the direction of the nuclear bulb in recent years, the Black Sea is just on the other side of the nuclear bulb, and the attention has been slightly reduced, but it is still an extremely important interstellar transit point in Marseille.

The Black Sea is a planet with a diameter only about half that of Marseille, and it is also a newly discovered terrestrial planet by humans during the "Great Retreat".It has liquid water and signs of biological evolution. It is covered with an atmosphere similar to the atmosphere of the earth, and moves at a constant speed around a star. It was originally very suitable for human settlements.

The mighty fleet stayed in the Black Sea for more than ten days.At that time, the fleet had just escaped from the dangerous asteroid belt, and the pioneer ship Phoenix was lost. In fear and panic, people began to doubt whether the key point of this journey, Marseille, was safe. If it was not better than the Black Sea, why not choose directly Black Sea settlement?

But humans soon discovered that there are many unstable black holes distributed near the Black Sea, and there are a large number of planetary belts around it, which is not suitable for humans to live in for a long time.

The fleet continued to set off, crossing a long time and space, and finally arrived at the new paradise Marseille.

After everything was settled in Marseille, humans thought of the Black Sea again.

It took nearly a hundred years to build the Black Sea. Humans have successfully developed dozens of routes around the Black Sea, making the Black Sea an extremely important transportation hub. Countless ships and humans pass through the Black Sea every day. Sometimes it can even receive incoming traffic from the Black Sea. Strange messages from higher and lower interstellar civilizations.

Strange creatures different from humans also travel through wormholes to make their own journeys.When they pass by the Black Sea, they often show a strong interest in the Black Sea.For a while, the people of the Marseille Science Agency called the Black Sea "the radar" because it was the radar for communication between humans and the second and third types of civilizations.

"There are troops stationed on the Black Sea. They won't change the communication frequency so easily, so they keep sending it until they receive it." Bering stood in the cockpit and looked at the screen, asking Pierre to send a message to the Black Sea.

Pierre pressed the send button again, and turned to look at Bering helplessly: "Captain, this is already No.20's eighth send."

"I know." Bering was very calm, "Go on."

Pierre asked her: "Captain, what about you? Do you want to go back to Marseilles?"

Bering glanced at him: "Why do you ask me this? What kind of gossip do you want to know?"

"I want to go back to Marseille." Pierre whispered, "Although it has been 30 years in Marseille, my parents and sister should still be there."

Bering remained silent, and stroked Pierre's hair.The young boy's hair is slightly curly, and when he scuffs it reminds her of the dog she and her husband share.

Bering quickly stopped.

"Don't worry." She comforted Pierre. "After arriving in Marseille, I will ask them for a ship. Those who want to go back to Marseille can go back, and Pimi can take you home."

She thought for a while, and then added: "If he quit drinking."

Pimi sneezed several times in a row, the wine bottle in his hand dangling, splashing a few drops of wine.

At this moment, Janche Ovid was on his way to the kitchen.They dodged the liquor and continued walking quickly.After Ovid finished eating Toure's natural yeast bread, he still felt that it was not enough, so he asked Jiang Che to take him to the kitchen to make some dessert before going to bed.

"Have you ever heard of the Bone Snake in the Black Sea?" Jiang Che was in a good mood, "It's a specialty of the Black Sea. It's a kind of snake with almost no meat on its body. It has many and thin bones. It's really skinny, so it's called the Bone Snake. .”

Ovid replied honestly: "I have never heard of it. How can I eat without meat? Is it delicious?"

"Chicken feet have no meat, don't you enjoy eating them just the same?" Jiang Che walked to the back door of the kitchen and carefully pushed it open, "I've always wanted to try a white bone snake, which has no meat but skin, and I don't know what it tastes like taste."

Ovid was about to speak, but stopped after smelling the aroma from the kitchen.

The two cooks happened to uncover the steamer, and a stream of white steam came out of the steamer.Ovid smelled a familiar aroma.

"Yam?" he wondered, "Steamed yam?"

"Steam yam with sweet-scented osmanthus." The chef took out a small bottle of sweet-scented osmanthus honey and dripped it on the yam slices on the plate.

Now Ovid knew where Jiang Che's sweet-scented osmanthus honey that Jiang Che didn't allow him to eat had gone.

He was extremely shocked, and with a bit of grief and indignation, he held Jiang Che back: "You gave the sweet-scented osmanthus honey to others? I only get a little bit!"

And that bit has been eaten too.

It was almost time for the chef to get off work, and they were eating snacks in the kitchen in twos and threes, watching Jiang Che and Ovidella come in.

Jiang Che leaned over to smell the yam, picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

This is what the chef made with the iron stick yam left over from today.After the iron rod yam was transplanted to Marseille, it took a long time to grow safely, and the taste is more delicate and smooth than that on the earth.

The way to eat yam is also very simple: peel and cut yam slices about one inch thick, arrange them neatly on a plate, steam them in water and eat them.

The iron rod yam used this time is glutinous and slippery after steaming, with a refreshing aroma.The sweet-scented osmanthus honey is thickly piled on the yam slices. When you enter the mouth, you can taste the sweet honey first, and then the soft and glutinous yam, which is so ripe that it almost melts in your mouth.After chewing twice, the aroma of yam and the sweetness of sweet-scented osmanthus honey were mixed together, and the whole mouth was filled with the smell of hot food, and I couldn't help swallowing it into my stomach with a gurgling sound.

Seeing that Jiang Che ignored his protest and started eating on his own, Ovid had no choice but to reach out and start too.

The chefs steamed three dishes and shared one dish each between Jiang Che and Ovid to thank Jiang Che for the sweet-scented osmanthus honey.

"This sweet-scented osmanthus honey is delicious." The chef said, "It's the first time I have eaten such a good one."

As soon as he finished speaking, a girl's voice came from among the chefs: "Blueberry yam is delicious, sweet and sour."

Jiang Che and Ovid looked up and found that Tang Mo had sneaked in at some point.

"Blueberry, have you ever eaten it?" She looked at Jiang Che, "It's sour and sweet, more interesting than your sweet-scented osmanthus honey."

Jiang Che was puzzled: "You...don't you sing?"

"The singing is over. I'm hungry, come to eat." Tang Mo chewed with a piece of butter bread in his hand, "I heard that you are good at cooking?"

Jiang Che has lived for hundreds of years. Although he slept most of the time, he feels that he is an elder. He has no tolerance for Tang Mo's unceremonious tone, so he turns his head and ignores her.

After eating half of the sweet-scented osmanthus yam, Tang Mo leaned over to see Jiang Che.

"Are we all of pure Asian blood?" she asked Ovid again. "What about you? What blood are you?"

Jiang Che still ignored her.Ovid wanted to talk to her, but he really didn't know where on earth his genes came from, so he couldn't help it.

Tang Mo picked up a piece of yam from Ovid's plate.

"You are not good enough." Tang Mo said, "Why don't you live upstairs?"

Ovid was confused: "What?"

Tang Mo chewed the yam, staring at Ovid with bright black eyes.Ovid's hair had grown out again, a beautiful blonde at the roots, and mixed with the previously dyed black, it looked like a failed and eccentric platter.

Tang Mo smiled.

"They told me you two were together," she said. "Why the utility shed on the ground floor? It's so small. You should be with him, in your passenger cabin. The passenger cabin is better than the utility shed." There are so many, but you can’t live.”

She paused for a moment, and based on all the information she heard in the kitchen, she came to a conclusion: "You are not good to him."

Tang Mo picked up another yam and pointed at Jiang Che with the yam.

Ovid: "No, you can't eat any more. It's mine."

Tang Mo: "...I'm blaming you. You treated him badly. You shouldn't live with him in the cleaner's dormitory. You have to take him to your room."

Ovid explained in a low voice: "Room, room...but I don't have a room either.

He came here because he was a killer with a mission. How could he have a room where he and Jiang Che could sleep.

Jiang Che couldn't listen anymore, Ovid didn't grasp the point at all.He stuck out his head behind Ovid: "Miss Tang, you made a mistake, we are not together. You all made a mistake."

Tang Mo quickly snatched another piece of yam from Ovid's plate under Ovid's nose.

In Ovid's angry growl, she looked at Jiang Che suspiciously.

Then he sneered, expressing his complete disbelief.

Jiang Che finally came to his senses: this girl is totally different from his younger sister.

"Pierre." Bering turned around on his chair, "ah, Pierre..."

Pierre: "Are you hungry, Captain?"

"Yes." Beringao raised his arms and pointed to the cockpit door, "Dear Pierre, go to the kitchen and get something to save your captain."

Pierre: "You haven't had dinner?"

Bering: "I'm too tired to have enough dinner. I want a roast chicken, the kind with Mississippi honey sauce, not too small."

Pierre: "But you had Mississippi chicken yesterday and the night before."

Bering sat up straight and pondered for a moment: "Yes, you reminded me."

She changed the dish: "Then roast duck, thank you."

Pierre gave in.He took off his headphones and was about to get up when a button above the console suddenly lit up green.

"Captain!" Pierre yelled, and immediately turned on the receiving device, "The Black Sea has answered!"

Bering also stood up immediately.This is the first contact they made with the outside world after Faust returned to the correct route.

A man's voice came out of the loudspeaker, with a steady tone and obvious doubts.

"This is the Black Sea," he said. "Who are you?"
