It hurts to touch me [Interstellar]

Li Ou put his backpack on the seat beside him. After the aircraft took off smoothly, the only thing that was quiet in the narrow space was the sound of Li Ou's own breathing in his protective mask.

The person who came to pick up the "living person" looked at him without hesitation, and Li Ou was of course not polite. When the other party refused to look away, Li Ou slowly took off his protective mask and looked back. .

The other party was obviously taken aback.

In Li Ou's eyes, it was the same as what he had just glanced at on the street. The man sitting across from him was very young. Li Ou suspected that this man should not have even grown up, and his body was still thin.

The dress on the other party? Although simple, but compared with everyone Li Ou saw tonight, it is obvious that he is living in a much better living condition.Even the appearance is easier to let people down. His facial features are heroic and meticulous, and his expression is natural and generous, revealing a kind of straightforwardness that is common in young people.

Who knew that Li Ou took off his mask like this? After a while, the other party suddenly became a little strange, not only staring at him? Li Ou's gaze became more and more hot, and in the end he even crossed his fingers to cover up the uncontrollable trembling of his fingertips— —

Li Ou looked out of the window, thinking to himself? Did he pretend not to see it, or did he pretend not to see it?

But pretending not to know is more difficult than asking, because out of the corner of your eye?, the trembling of the other party's hands finally stopped after a tight handclasp, and the stiff body leaned back on the back of the chair, as if trying to relax himself, but Not an inch? After a while, Li Ou felt more obvious and more frequent gazes on him—the other person was restless.

This kind of performance is too obvious and easy to understand, Li Ou thought to himself, did this person recognize him?

If it wasn't inconvenient now, would Leo really want to ask Saoirse? What's the matter?

Fortunately, the other party didn't think about it at all. To cover it up, Li Ou heard the other party's suppressed? Excited question: "Li Ou? Are you Li Ou?"

When Li Ou looked around, the other party's eyes were almost rounded, showing a kind of disbelief.

"You are?" Leo asked.

"Are you really Li Ou?! Ah, I..." The young man got stuck talking: "You probably don't know me, my name is Xia Zuo, but, but I saw you twice, once in Qi Nest, when the accident happened in Long Bay, you were in the explosion? In a coma, I was rescued with you! Another time, on the Harissa, no inches? At that time... because of a small problem, I didn't Can I talk to you?"

Harissa...

Li Ou was taken aback, and following the other party's explanation, he suddenly saw the explosion of the nest, the fire in Long Bay... the first time he saw Asland... and - he woke up from a coma, and a bird in front of him was stained with blood. On the slender wrist of Tar's hand, there is a wristband with the number "799" faintly flashing on it.

Of course, in the end, Li Ou found a melancholy and fragile face of a beautiful young man at the edge of his memory, the outline of which faintly matched with the person in front of him.

Xia Zuo...?

Is there such a coincidence in the world?

Was this also arranged by Saoirse?

——Improbable, Saoirse was very restricted at that time, and she didn't have such great power.

and many more……

Li Ou suddenly realized that he was stupid.

When Liam and Saoirse confronted each other not long ago, Liam clearly mentioned a boy who was rescued by a drone. At that time, Liam thought the boy was himself, so he tested him, and finally took the boy "Let go well."

That's probably the one in front of me, right?

At this time Xia Zuo did look intact, but an innocent civilian boy appeared in the notorious space hunting ground? Is this considered "good"?

……

"...I remember you, why are you here?" Li Ou finally asked.

Xia Zuo's eyes suddenly flashed an inch? Surprised, he grinned, "It's all a coincidence, you won't believe it even if you tell it."

Saoirse received the question and answered in Leo's ear:

"A few of the skuas who sneaked into the Harissa back then escaped and took Xia Zuo away, and Xia Zuo was holding a golden chip. The top status chip here is the golden chip, so, Liam should be his recommender?——I just arranged for a random person to pick you up, but I didn't expect Xia Zuo to pick you up on a whim."

Saoirse sounded a little jealous: "Although it's a good thing that Liam didn't kill Xia Zuo, what about Liam? Let Xia Zuo come to the universe hunting ground. Did Liam guess that you will come here in the future? How could they calculate such a far-reaching matter? How did Xia Zuo go about this? Why did he want to come out to pick up newcomers?"

Leo listen? Saoirse murmured, really dumbfounded, Liam probably revealed some secrets in front of Xia Zuo, thinking? To send this witness away from far away? Is it okay if Xia Zuo was not killed?

So this is really "fate"?

Xia Zuo also started to explain, but avoided Liam's name, and only said that he met the skua.

"...During the incident in Long Bay? My family? All passed away," Xia Zuo looked a little sad, "So I decided to leave with the skuas at the time, and ended up here. This must be fate. "

Not long after that, Xia Zuo was immersed in the joy of reunion again. It seemed that he was very happy to see someone he had known before.

"Anyway, let's not let our guard down," the girl's voice reminded Li Ou in a calm tone, "Your mental power also exerts an influence on him. If he doesn't mention what happened at that time, it doesn't mean it's true." Forgot, he? Has integrated into the environment of the hunting ground in such a short period of time. From this point of view, he? Is a very smart person. "

Li Ou naturally didn't answer? At this moment, Xia Zuo suddenly got up and approached Li Ou.

Li Ou restrained the idea of ​​dodging, and waited and watched until Xia Zuo buckled up his seat belt for him.

"We're at the jump point."

"Walp?"

Xia Zuo smiled slyly, showing his white teeth: "Didn't I just say to take you into the city?"

Before Li Ou could respond, the leap began.The jump of such a small aircraft is extremely risky. After a rather severe dizziness, Li Ou quietly leaned on the back of his chair and waited.

Xia Zuo propped his cheek and looked at Li Ou's reaction, as if he had gotten used to it.

The jump brought a short-term dissonance of the five senses, and Saoirse's voice disappeared. Leo closed his eyes until the heartstrings finally loosened, and they? They had reached a new location.

Rubbing the center of his brows, Li Ou opened his eyes and looked out the window. Unexpectedly, he only took one look and couldn't look away again.

--What it is?

Countless mottled and shining light spots, layer upon layer, occupy an artificial star field with a short chassis and sharp peaks.Some of these light spots are huge, some are small, the small ones are connected into a long and narrow piece, like a hazy nebula, and the big ones are dotted here and there, like huge and rich golden fruits.

Li Ou's heart was shaken, because just looking at it from a distance like this, the volume of the man-made star field is probably twice as large as that of Hangte City.

When they got closer, those bright and dark points of light gradually became clear and became colorful.The sharpened cliff-like tops have also become huge mooring platforms. The extremely complex and magnificent structure reminded Leo of the organ pipes in the church that were humming like thunder, but at the moment they were all being ignored. The sequence of light spots occupies ?.And ribbon-like flight passages are interspersed, including the periphery of the man-made star field. There are aircrafts that shuttle through the fixed route lightning-fast, giving people a feeling of festival celebration.

Is it a space station?

When the aircraft that Li Ou and the others were riding on also joined the fixed orbit, the "city" in front of them could no longer be seen in its entirety. It was ships of all sizes, gathering like fireflies inside, outside and on the edge of the building. Crouching on the surface of countless berthing pads, and getting closer, I realized that some of them are giant starships, the models are outrageously old, and they have been integrated with the construction platform after transformation. I don’t know how many years they have been parked here.

Xia Zuo and Li Ou looked at the scene in front of them together, until Li Ou retracted his gaze, Xia Zuo said, "No matter how many times I watch it, it's still as shocking as it was the first time I saw it."

Li Ou completely understood, Xia Zuo smiled and said, "Welcome to the universe hunting ground." He pointed out the window, "This is the City of the Holy Code."

Saoirse smiled in Leo's ear.

Li Ou: "..."

I always feel that I still underestimated this place.

……

"After you come in, you won't be able to use the Alliance Points anymore," Xia Zuo said, "You can only use your identity chips here, don't you worry? You can use the recommender's chips to come out, because newcomers? Adapt to the principle, labor Lun Hotel will provide accommodation and meals without paying any fees?"

"How long can I live?"

"This... depends on the color of the chips, can I have a look?"

Li Ou took out the black chip, Xia Zuo saw it and immediately said: "Ten days, believe me, this is already very lucky."

"The Lauren Hotel...?"

Xia Zuo shrugged: "Most people here? They live on the starship, so the Lauren Hotel is the only hotel here, right? You'll know later, even if they don't live there, it's everyone? Go where you can't."

This sentence must go is very subtle, which gave Li Ou a lot of ideas. Soon, the aircraft climbed to the highest point, slid out of the track with several small aircraft, and finally stopped on a fully-filled tarmac. superior.

The magnificent staircase not far away is like a wide and gentle river. The guests step into the gate at the end in a hurry from the changing fluorescent river. The height of the seven door leaves reaches the dome. Air? Corresponding to the steps below, it presents visible light with extremely unstable color.

Li Ou noticed the strangeness almost instantly. Whenever the color changed, someone? came in and out of the door, including a moment when Li Ou swore that he? A vague animal shadow, only to disappear when the man stepped out of the gate on his hind feet.

Curved space!

The function of those huge door leaves? Of course it is ready to come out - inside the hotel, it is possible to directly manifest the spiritual body without wearing or using any Quwei items!

It's not that Li Ou has never seen this kind of technology, but as far as he knows, the cost will double for every cubic meter of space used. Compared with Curvi glasses, this kind of technology is too expensive and expensive. Extravagant, so it used to be used only? On special occasions.

But such a hotel on the edge of the universe actually installed the Quwei development technology directly at the gate. Should this be called arrogance, or is it? !

When Leo got off the aircraft, he didn't hesitate, but now, he? Hesitated, he? Don't know whether he should step on the damn colorful steps.

"What's the matter?" Xia Zuo noticed that Li Ou had stopped, followed Li Ou's gaze to look an inch, and half-jokingly said, "That's the mental body development technology—it's a fallacy to say that it's harmful to the body, don't worry. Well, there is no radiation." After speaking, he winked his eyes at Li Ou, "For a hotel? Is this a bit wasteful? You will know later, for some places, it is still necessary to see clearly."

Li Ou raised his hand and placed it on the pinna, and tapped the communicator with his fingertips seemingly unintentionally.

Saoirse had been waiting for a long time, and said, "Well, you haven't tried an inch before, and I'm not sure, why don't you try with one foot first?"

Li Ou: "..." Renren, Renren, are you all from me? Are you childish?

"Insufficient? It should be nothing." Saoirse said indifferently: "If it's above SS, this test is not very accurate. Anyway, it's free mental power. Let's go faster, no one will notice."

Xia Zuo: "...It's actually very interesting. The entire hotel is also a Quwei development space. You'll get used to it in two days."

Li Ou: "..."

Saoirse: "Really, if you go fast enough, no one will notice."

Li Ou: "..."
