The live stream audience was stunned by the streamer's sudden shout, and even the people standing next to him were surprised.
"Miaomiao?"
Ling Miao's gaze was fixed on the red fruit held by the little girl on the live stream screen.
Following her gaze, everyone's eyes also fell on the red fruit.
Even the viewers in the live stream stopped discussing anything else and followed the streamer's gaze, focusing on the round, plump fruit.
What is this fruit?
Why was the streamer so surprised when he saw this fruit?
Is it inedible? Or has a new species been discovered?
"Isn't this a new species? I've never seen one like it before."
Wait, I'll search for it right away.
It seems there isn't one; there's no record of this round, plump, red fruit in any encyclopedia of plants.
[That's normal. Interstellar space is so vast; there are many plants and animals we don't recognize.]
Judging from the streamer's reaction, they probably know each other.
So, is this yet another delicious dish?!
Seeing Ling Miao staring at the red fruit in her hand without moving or saying a word, the little girl shrank back a little, her eyes dimming for a moment. She pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but suddenly heard the other speak.
"Could you come closer... so I can take a look?"
She looked up, and Ling Miao's gaze remained fixed on the round red fruit in her hand, but her expression carried a hint of certainty.
The little girl was puzzled, but a faint hope rose in her heart, and she held up the red fruit in her hand.
It's obvious that the other party's live streaming equipment is of very poor quality; the signal is unstable, there's some buffering, and most importantly, the picture is blurry.
Even through the blurry image, Ling Miao could tell at a glance that it was Tomato!
It's a tomato!
After arriving in the interstellar world, she was able to find most of the ingredients on the StarNet. Even if she didn't see them, she could always find some seasonings from her previous life and some strange new seasonings and ingredients by browsing the StarNet.
But she searched the entire interstellar space and couldn't find any tomatoes. She thought tomatoes had disappeared in the interstellar era, but she didn't expect to see them in this little girl's hands again.
Ling Miao was pleasantly surprised and cautiously asked the girl in the live stream, "Do you still have any of these hawthorns at home? Could you send me some? I'll pay for them."
The little girl was overjoyed and nodded quickly.
"There are still many at home!"
As she spoke, her live stream screen started shaking, and the little girl quickly ran home, clutching her worn-out Star Brain.
Seeing Ling Miao's delighted expression, the viewers in the live stream were also intrigued and full of curiosity.
In no time, the little girl ran home.
She slapped her worn-out star brain against the pile of red berries in the corner.
Suddenly, a huge pile of tomatoes, like a small mountain, appeared before Ling Miao's eyes.
she:!!!
The surprise came so fast that she didn't know how to react.
"Okay, thank you. Do you have adults at home? Do you know how to send a package?"
The little girl nodded solemnly, "I will."
The live stream remained open, and Ling Miao's unusually surprised expression aroused the curiosity of more and more netizens. Some even spread the word, attracting even more people to click in.
In an instant, the number of viewers in the live stream surged.
Everyone was curious and discussing what the red fruit was, which made the streamer show such a surprised expression.
Seeing their curiosity, Ling Miao smiled mysteriously and kept them in suspense, saying, "You'll find out in time."
While waiting for the tomato to arrive, Ling Miao chatted a lot with the little girl across from her.
Perhaps because the two had become somewhat familiar with each other, the little girl tried her best to answer Ling Miao's questions.
Listening to their conversation in the live stream, viewers learned a lot.
The little girl's name is Dora.
Dora's planet is as underdeveloped as Tadar's; both are primitive planets.
This planet is covered with vegetation and trees, but there are no resources worth mining. As a result, fewer and fewer natives live on it, and most of them go out to work.
Dora's parents died in an accident while working away from home, leaving her to live with her grandmother.
But Grandma is getting old, and she can't fully support herself and Dora on her own.
Dora discovered these red berries by chance on a mountain.
If you encounter unfamiliar plants or animals in space, never pick them rashly, as it could very likely lead to accidental poisoning and death.
But they were starving to death at the time, so they didn't care about anything else.
They didn't have the extra money to have this novel fruit tested, so Dora ate it on a whim.
The flesh is plump and thick, juicy, and has a sweet and sour taste; you won't have any problems eating it.
Later, she and her grandmother often ate these red berries to stave off hunger.
Connecting to Ling Miao's live stream was just a sudden idea.
Thanks to the popularity of the variety show "Waiting for the Wind to Travel", she also learned about one of the guests.
The other party was a food streamer, so I applied for the connection with a sliver of hope that I didn't even know existed.
What if the other person recognizes this ingredient? What if this ingredient is very rare?
Dora also made preparations before the video call.
She searched the entire StarNet but couldn't find a red fruit exactly like hers, so she gained some confidence and specifically contacted Ling Miao.
Sure enough, the other party recognized this red fruit, and judging from their reaction, it must be quite rare.
Dora looked down at the pile of red berries in the corner of her house.
A smile couldn't help but appear on his thin face.
Her live stream was still running, and that smile was seen by Ling Miao and millions of viewers online.
They were taken aback, and then couldn't help but feel sorry for this little girl who was already struggling to make a living at such a young age.
The little girl's planet is also in the Yagar system, which is the same system as Tadar where Ling Miao is, so the delivery was very fast.
Before long, the tomatoes were delivered to my hands.
The other curious Susan and her friends also gathered around to watch. Ling Miao picked up a tomato; it was round and plump, quite heavy in her hand. She even brought it closer to smell it.
This is definitely a tomato, no doubt about it.
"Miaomiao, what kind of ingredient is this?"
Rella looked curiously at the plump fruit in her hand; it was a kind of fruit she had never seen before.
"This is a tomato."
"tomato?"
When this unfamiliar term was uttered, everyone was somewhat bewildered. They looked at each other and realized that none of them understood it.
Even the live stream audience was bewildered by this sudden and unfamiliar term.
"This is an ingredient I saw in ancient books about food culture. I always thought it had become extinct in the interstellar era, but I didn't expect it to still exist."
