May you be happy and prosperous

Every night at nine o'clock is the unshakable closing time of "Zhaocaijinbao".

At this time, the pet groomers in the store usually leave in a hurry. As the owner, Lu Shier will of course stay behind to do the aftermath, such as returning all the tables and chairs that have been moved during the day to their original positions. Because it was convenient for the vendor to open the lid of the uncovered pet food and cover it carefully. After finishing all these trivial things, he will officially start the happiest time of the day——

Back behind the cash register, count the turnover of the day three times, and then carefully record the number in the notebook without missing a dime.In the past, Lu Twelve would draw the current month's income curve rather stupidly, but since Little Claw found his curve and laughed at it, in order to maintain the majestic image of the shop owner, he reluctantly got rid of the problem of drawing curves.

It was another day and the night fell. At this moment, after the hustle and bustle of the day and the closing of shops, this bustling street in the center of City G gradually regained the tranquility it should have at night. The pet at the end In the store, there are only two dim lights behind the cashier and on the other side of the window for illumination.

In the shop, a young black-haired young man who is the small owner of a pet shop is sitting under a small desk lamp and tirelessly counting the thick stack of colorful RMB in his hand for the third time. Not far from him, there is a Tall young men with pink cartoon bibs are opening the cages one by one, bending over to check the conditions of the water basins and food basins for the small animals in the pet boarding room, and confirming that there is enough remaining in them to open the next day. These small animals will not be hungry Thirsty, and patiently interacting with the animals in the cage, he will close the cage and move on to the next one.

One counts money and the other takes care of small animals.

When the black-haired young man sitting at the cash register finished counting the money and stood up from his chair contentedly, under normal circumstances, the tall young man in front of the window would close the last cage and take off his bib.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ajie. I'm really sorry to keep you for the last time." Lu Twelfth put it on the back of the backpack on the chair. The backpack makes him look more like a college student.

The tall young man whose name was called glanced at him, shook his head and said, "It's okay, anyway, I'll go back first and I'll take the subway, so I can take your car when I come back with you."

Lu Twelve let out an "oh", and watched the young man who was wearing the same T-shirt as him turn around and go into the cubicle to wash his hands, so he followed him behind him without thinking. The door said: "Since you came here half a year ago, you have helped me a lot. You can get off work earlier every night. You'd better not resign, otherwise I don't know if I can get used to life without your help..."

"Boss, what do you want to look like you are in love with me?"

"……fart."

"Don't worry, I won't resign. The rent in City G is so expensive now. If you drive me out, I don't even know where to live."

Ajie came out with a smile, and walked out of the pet shop side by side with a black-haired young man who was a head shorter than himself. After leaving the store, Ajie leaned against the door, looking down at the black-haired young man closing the glass Lock the door, then pull down the special anti-theft door, hang a sign with your phone number on the door, and then lock it again. When the black-haired young man lowered his head and carefully worked on the last lock, he did not I didn't see it, but the eyes of the tall young man standing beside me flickered for a moment, showing a hesitant expression.

"Why don't you talk?" Lu Twelve thought it was strangely quiet, and asked without raising his head.

"I found that you always put your number on the anti-theft door, why?"

"Are you stupid? In case a guest's pet suddenly has an emergency at night, she doesn't know that our place closes at nine o'clock, so she rushes here and waits for the first aid to find that there is no ghost. Wouldn't it delay the first aid time and kill one?" Order you to pay?"

"so what?"

"So they can call me. Anyway, the remote command can also be rescued. Some emergencies are not immediately fatal. There are also some emergency medicines in the nearby 24-hour human prescription."

"Oh," Ajie nodded, thought for a while and then suddenly changed the subject, "I won't resign, boss, until this store closes down."

"...I'll fuck you, spring, summer, autumn and winter, you just went out of business!" Lu Twelve suddenly raised his head, glaring at the tall young man beside him, "Can you speak?"

"I'll just say it casually."

"It's a curse."

"Do you want to be so superstitious?"

"It has nothing to do with superstition. As an employee of our store, you are not motivated and motivated, and you actually fantasize about the day our thriving store will close down. Oh my god, how can I hire you, a worthless person, and deduct your salary!"

"...I've been holding back this sentence for a day and now I finally say it? It's killing you, right?"

"Yeah, how about it, are you going to be a righteous soldier again?"

"..."

The two grown men talked to each other, and no one would let the other childishly bicker all the way, and then they walked towards the parking lot. At this time, the neon lights that were still flashing on the bustling urban high-rises became the most lively scene in the city at night. Excellent lighting, colorful lights projected down, stretching the backs of the two walking side by side very long...

Lu Twelve was almost getting used to this tall young man named Ajie becoming a part of his life.

Every night when the shop was closed, he would drive and return to their shared apartment with Ajie, and the two would stage a routine fight to grab the bathroom—usually Lu Twelve would be the victor That one, after he comes out of the bathroom, Ajie will go wash up. During this period, Lu Shier will nestle on the sofa in the living room and watch TV or surf the Internet on his mobile phone. When Ajie comes out of the bathroom, the two of them will We will say goodnight to each other, go back to our respective rooms, and go to bed.

Ajie sleeps very badly.

Before the appointed time the next day, even the drums and gongs downstairs would not wake him up.

Lu Twelve didn't take this to heart, he thought it was just the fault of young people who like to sleep, but what he didn't know was that Ajie slept so badly, not because he was really sleepy, but because Once he falls asleep, he will automatically turn on the "no one here" state.

……

The fifth star galaxy in the Milky Way, the planet Cesar, the capital of Valteren

In the gorgeous royal palace, the floor-to-ceiling windows reflect the projection of the Milky Way in the sky outside the window, and the twinkling starlight is projected into the dim interior through the floor-to-ceiling windows, becoming the only light source in the room.

Beside the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a huge fish tank, in which several Arowanas are swimming back and forth, and this fish is different from the ones on the earth, these fishes soaked in a special nutrient solution are made of metal all over their bodies "Fish", they flexibly swing their tails shining with snow-white metallic luster, floating leisurely in the blue transparent nutrient solution...

The huge palace is covered with thick carpets, and the whole palace is very dark and quiet, only the sound of "beep beep" and "beep beep" can be heard, until someone knocks the heavy bell lightly from outside. The door, after getting no answer, pushed the door open again, and finally there was a sound other than the instrument in the palace.

The one who pushed the door in was none other than the silver-haired man who appeared in the video on the news broadcast this morning.

At this moment, he was still wearing the straight military uniform in the video. After entering the room, he took graceful steps, and his long silver hair drew a beautiful arc behind him as he walked—— Following the direction of the colorful data lines and transmission lines on the ground, Byron, the second prince of the planet Watron, eased his steps more and more——

Until he came to the depths of the room.

There was a huge, black-dominated bed.

In the middle of the bed lay an adult man who was taller and stronger than him—the man was wearing a dark blue military uniform of the same style as Byron, except that his military uniform was completely open, revealing the white clothes underneath. The shirt and a large piece of solid honey-colored muscle... His hair is beautiful pale gold. At this moment, his eyes are closed, and the high bridge of his nose casts a small shadow on the side of his cheek. The colorful data lines and transmission lines are in the end. Converged on his body, the red line representing the main transmission line was directly inserted deep into the temple of his brain.

Byron seemed used to this.

He sat down next to the man whose body was covered with transmission lines, raised his legs, thought for a while, took out a pocket watch from his pocket, flicked it open to check the time...

The second hand, minute hand, and hour hand are about to turn at twelve o'clock.

Prince Byron waited quietly for a while.

When the three hands finally converged into a straight line on the surface of the pocket watch, all of a sudden, the originally dark palace was brightly lit, and the strong lights gradually lit up one by one in order, and the uncarpeted floor faintly revealed a dim light. , the optical brain not far away also automatically turned on, as if in an instant, everything in the whole room came to life.

Byron rose from his chair.

At the same time, the man who was originally lying in the middle of the huge black bed also opened his eyes—he had a pair of golden pupils that made people unable to move their eyes away, as deep as honey and as clear as amber. When the pupils regain their luster, they will be more dazzling than the purest gold in the world.

"Brother Emperor." The second prince of Vatlun Zhou raised the corners of his lips, raised his right hand to his left chest, and bowed respectfully, "Welcome back."

"..."

The man turned over from the bed and sat up, pulling out the data cable connected to his temple in a rude manner. He frowned, and took off the obstructive military uniform on his body, leaving only a body that was tightly stuck to his body due to sweat. The white shirt on his body generously exposed his well-distributed and perfect muscles to the air...

He was like a black panther just woken from a deep sleep.

There was a dangerous aura all over his body.

The man turned his head and glanced at his younger brother who was standing by the bed with eyes like looking at garbage, a dangerous light flashed in his golden pupils, and then, a deep and sexy male magnetic voice sounded: " Byron, I saw the video you recorded on the earth today, and recorded that kind of thing for the people on the earth to watch, is your brain sick?"

The smile on Byron's face remained unchanged: "Brother Emperor, according to the usual experience, we must first express our friendship, which is enough to make the other party relax their vigilance and hide everything, which will make people suspicious."

"People on Earth have different intelligence than the planets we invaded in the past. I don't think the problem can be solved by force this time."

"In my opinion, there is no difference. I am ignorant and ignorant. I have high-sounding reasons on the surface, but I am full of dark desires in private."

The man snorted noncommittally: "This sounds more like what you are doing."

"Brother Huang, don't worry too much. This time, we will go as smoothly as before." Byron sat down again in the previous seat and changed into a comfortable posture. Invading the earth through the way of the consciousness body, my dear brother, what kind of person are you playing?"

"Poor ghost."

"Uh?"

"Or, a large loyal dog."

"Oh, this..."

Byron narrowed his eyes slightly, and scanned his royal brother from beginning to end. No matter what, he couldn't connect this man...who exudes arrogance and danger from every pore on his body, with the so-called "big loyal dog" together.

Come to think of it, that picture is really terrible.

Byron couldn't help smacking his tongue in his heart, and sat up a little, his face showing a trace of interest: "What kind of information did you get? What kind of people are people on Earth?"

The man sitting in the middle of the bed fell silent for a moment.

In my mind, a certain black head crouching behind the dim light, counting money with saliva, flashed past.

He paused.

Then without hesitation, he said——

"Greedy, narrow-minded, stingy, bad-hearted... extremely rich in imagination."

"Extremely imaginative?"

"The first time you exposed the video, they were already fantasizing about how to make money from us."

"What?" Byron was stunned for a moment, as if he was suspecting that something was wrong with his ears.

The man sitting on the bed showed a mocking expression: "Manicure and polish your nails, give your fluffy hair a shape, and then charge you a few hundred watts."

"..."

Leaning sideways at his brother with a messy expression on his face, the man pulled out the data cables inserted in his body one by one, got out of bed, and countless nutrient-like liquids dripped from his body, dripping wet and flickering. Looking at the dimly lit ground, the cleaning robot that was on standby in the corner immediately shone brightly, following the man's feet, accompanying him all the way to the bathroom, wiping the liquid dripping from his body all the way.

"Brother Huang, do you want to continue to investigate on Earth tomorrow?"

As soon as Byron finished speaking, he saw a pause under the feet of the tall man who was walking away.

But that was only a momentary pause.

Before he even realized what happened, he heard the indifferent voice of the current Supreme Ruler of Planet Vatlun——

"No, I'll set off with you tomorrow." The man said lightly, "You'd better stop trying to send any information to the earth on my own initiative."

"Okay," Byron nodded with a smile, and looked at the drop of liquid on the road the man walked by. "Brother Emperor, you seem to be leaking oil? Do you want to check and repair it before you leave?"

"That's data-transfer fluid, are you an idiot? Throw you into the destruction facility and let them give you a good 'repair check'."

"..."

……

long night.

Half of the human race on the planet has fallen into a deep sleep in the night.

But the black-haired young man named Lu Twelve didn't know that, along with the star warship engraved with the royal totem in Vatlun, slowly soaring to the earth, on the earth, a man named Ajie The human beings have completely disappeared from his life since then.

And the night before, he had blatantly said something like "I'm not quitting my job, boss, until this store goes out of business."
