Chapter 152

The green plants in the greenhouse are cleverly designed. Each platform is a separate space where you can hear some sounds and there is a certain degree of shielding and concealment.

"This fruit tastes terrible. I won't eat it anymore."

"It's really unpalatable." Zi'an was also quite disappointed with the fruit he had longed for. It couldn't compare to the fruit baskets that could be found everywhere in his master's yard. "Want to try the nutritional supplement? This seems to be the latest high-end product."

"...Ugh, it tastes weird, no."

“It does taste strange.”

"Stop eating. Your eyebrows are wrinkled."

"I'm a little disappointed that this thing is so expensive."

"Is 600 star coins expensive?"

"Two star coins for an ordinary nutrient."

"Oh, it's a bit expensive... Never mind, let's not eat here. Let's go back. This place doesn't look good either."

"...Okay." Zi'an has never been able to refuse Yaya's request, and the green all around cannot compare with the colorful yard.

The noise of children fighting and quarreling was transmitted through the green plants to the platform next door. On this platform were four big men, including a fair-skinned and gentle uncle wearing glasses, who was operating the terminal in front of him.

The other three looked like bandits. The scarred man sitting opposite the gentleman looked much more powerful than the two behind him. Not only did these three look like bandits, they also didn't look as fierce as good guys. They were definitely not rich people who looked like decent people.

"Control your banditry. Don't think you'll be safe just by bringing you on board. Even if you're boarding from the edge of the interstellar space, attracting attention will only cause unnecessary trouble." Faced with three burly men who looked tough, the not-so-strong uncle didn't take them seriously at all.

There is no such basic disease as myopia in this world. The glasses worn by the uncle are not decorations. Countless digital numbers are displayed on the lenses. This is a miniature brain-computer interface, and his hands are also constantly inputting things.

The tone of the gentleman's voice obviously annoyed the three people. One of the people standing behind the scarred man took a step forward angrily and was about to open his mouth to scold him, but the scarred man raised his hand to suppress him.

"Sir, why are you being so sarcastic? We are allies after all. Since you've already cooperated with us, I'm sure you won't do anything unnecessary to undermine our friendship." The scarred man chuckled. His face, a bit of a simpleton, was actually quite deceptive. If you were fooled by that simpleton, you'd only have yourself to blame if you turned to ash. "After all, if you're associated with interstellar pirates like us, you'll have no way out in the Alliance."

Uncle Sven twitched the corner of his mouth, ignored Scarface's provocation, and concentrated on his subordinates' input. Invading a starship's independent system is not something that can be done in a half-hearted manner.

"Boss, this fruit is delicious. Kids from rich families are just different. They don't even care about such delicious fruit." I don't know when the other big man behind Scarface came back and brought the fruits and nutritional supplements that Yaya and Zian didn't eat, wanting to stuff them into his own mouths, not caring at all about what was left over by others.

"......" Scarface was speechless. The fruit was indeed precious. As an interstellar pirate, you have eaten it before. Is there any need to be so lame?

The Sagittarius man, who had just been angry, took two pieces from the plate in his hand and stuffed them into his mouth: "I just can't stand these rich people. We risked our lives to rob the things we can eat, so it's really more satisfying to kill them."

Uncle Sven frowned slightly and looked at Scarface with dissatisfaction: "We agreed not to cause any unnecessary trouble. I will attract the attention of the Alliance patrol soldiers and police, and you complete the operation."

"Don't worry about it, sir. Making a fortune is not a big deal. As long as you do your job well, the Prison Star will definitely not fail." Scarface didn't care at all. People who followed the rules and lived under the Star Alliance were completely different from them. They were so naive.

Uncle Sven was dissatisfied with his answer, but he didn't say anything else.

——————————————

When Yaya and Zian were walking back, they met classmates on the floating corridor of the botanical garden. This situation was really fate. Although they were in the same class, the classmates in the online virtual school were from different planets, and even the exams were chosen by themselves. In this case, they could actually take the same spaceship.

"I saw you from a distance. It turns out that not many people would grow their hair this long." The classmate who recognized Yaya was so happy. She was a chubby girl with short hair. While saying this, she stole a glance at Zi'an who was standing in the distance.

Yaya was also happy. She was quite familiar with this girl. To be more precise, this girl was quite willing to get close to her. The reason was...: "You are lying. You must have recognized my brother first before you saw me."

Zi'an is very popular in school. There are a lot of boys and girls in the class who like him. The girl in front of her is one of them. Yaya has gotten used to it.

The fat girl smiled cheerfully: "It's because you are short. Senior is so tall that he will definitely see you at first sight." This is related to personality and environment. There are not many introverts in the interstellar world who are very straightforward and cheerful. They may feel shy towards Zi'an. This is also the case for someone who confessed to Zi'an in person and was rejected.

Yaya does not comment on her height, she will grow taller sooner or later.

"By the way, are you going to Central Star for the practical exam?"

Yaya nodded.

"Let's team up then. We're all people we know, so they're more reliable."

"All of them?"

"You guys didn't join the terminal group, so I can't contact you even if I want to."

Yaya curled her lips and said nothing. She had joined the group at the beginning, and after joining, they could chat privately. Her terminal was harassed so much that she couldn't help it. Her classmates were too enthusiastic. In the end, she and Brother Zi'an withdrew and only received booking information from the school.

"There are 38 people from our school going to Central Star for the exam this time. We have contacted 11 teams for this exam and will try our best to help each other."

Those who are going to Central Star for the practical exam are all students aiming for military academy. I heard the dropout rate is quite high. "Is this kind of mutual help really useful?"

"At least there's someone there with me."

"Forget it, my brother and I can go together." Yaya also knew that she and Brother Zi'an had many little secrets, and it was inconvenient to get too close to others.

The chubby girl probably guessed their choice, so she didn't pester them about staying overnight. She just changed the subject: "Would you like to go to my table and have some fruit? My parents ordered a lot of fruit."

Yaya shook her head and was about to say something when she felt a vibration under her feet. The amplitude was not large and it quickly returned to normal. Perhaps it was because they were standing on the suspended corridor that the vibration was particularly obvious.

"What's going on?" Her classmate looked around and saw nothing wrong. "Could it be that the spaceship is accelerating?"

At this time, Zi'an came over and said, "Are you not finished talking yet? Let's go."

"Yeah." Dad said that we should listen to Brother Zi'an when we are outside. Yaya waved goodbye to the classmates she met by chance, and followed Zi'an happily.
