Achoo—
Damn it, who's talking bad about me behind my back?
Zhang Fan rubbed his nose; he had just sneezed.
Today is an important day. Zhang Fan specially tidied his hair, shaved his beard clean, and ironed his work clothes so that there wasn't a single wrinkle.
He's going on a date with Yui today.
Hehe. Just thinking about it makes me happy.
A week ago, Zhang Fan invited Yui to stargaze, and she agreed. Tonight is the day they agreed to meet.
Zhang Fan picked a bunch of roses in the central garden and then sat in the hammock to wait. He had already tricked the owner of the hammock away to another place, and he didn't want a gorilla-shaped light bulb next to him on his date.
"Mr. Zhang Fan".
Hearing the voice behind him, Zhang Fan turned around with a smile on his face, but the next moment he was stunned as if he had been electrocuted.
Yui wore a light blue plaid skirt, the hem swaying slightly, revealing a pair of fair and slender legs. Her white top was tied with a dark blue bow tie, highlighting her delicate neck, and her long hair was tied into two pigtails.
J...JK?
Why are there JK uniforms on Mars?
"Am I acting strangely?" Yui blushed. Seeing that Zhang Fan hadn't said anything for a long time, she stood there awkwardly, looking a little lost.
"No, not at all, it looks great! It suits Yui perfectly!" Zhang Fan presented the roses with both hands. "Here you go."
"Thank you." Yui accepted the flowers with a sweet smile.
Yui was clearly dressed up specially. Zhang Fan touched his work clothes and felt that he hadn't taken this date seriously enough, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't exactly come in a spacesuit, could he?
"Yui, how did you get clothes like this?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask.
"This is my personal clothing, and also my work clothes," Yui said. "I used to wear this when I performed."
"Oh." Zhang Fan remembered that Yui was the Ace of the national idol group in Wano Country. Being able to be the center among 48 girls, her strength must be excellent.
Moreover, as the granddaughter of Kazuo Ishihara of Mitsubishi Corporation, it would be too easy for her to bring more personal belongings to Mars.
“I have other work clothes and personal clothes, but I thought Mr. Zhang Fan might not like them, so I have never worn them.”
"Anything else? What kind?"
"For example, the maid outfit and the Rem cosplay outfit, both of which I wore for photo shoots."
Female female female female female maid?
Reilereilerereem?
Zhang Fan quickly pinched his nose and tilted his head back.
No, no, just thinking about it makes my nose bleed.
On the grass in the central garden, Zhang Fan spread out a picnic mat, and Yui sat on it, opening her bento box, which was filled with rice balls and sushi she had made herself.
Whether it was the force of gravity, the strong magnetic field around Yui, the small size of her "Bird's Nest" (referring to her breasts), or the dazzling dress, Zhang Fan's gaze was fixed on Yui all day.
"Tsk tsk tsk, pure love is so wonderful." Two people hiding behind a tree whispered to each other furtively, "I can smell the collagen of love in the air."
"Tch, cuteness is nothing compared to sexiness." Katerina puffed out her chest defiantly. "Believe me or not, I'll go to his room tonight and drain him dry?"
"Don't cause trouble!" Ivanka glared at her. "Do you think I haven't locked you up enough?"
Upon hearing this, Katerina immediately deflated like a punctured balloon.
Ivanka turned her head to look at the central garden and licked her lips.
I want to experience this kind of pure love someday.
...
Blue Star.
Today, the blue planet is bathed in a gentle spring breeze.
"That's great. Suddenly I feel like the world isn't so bad after all."
It was as if everyone fell in love on this day; as long as you were looking at a screen, you couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"That's the magic of love."
At the human survival point, the girls stared at the screen with expressions of utter rapture.
"Zhang Dada and Yui-chan, what kind of fairytale love is this?"
"I can't stand it, you two should just get married already!"
"I've had enough dog food today, so I don't need to eat dinner."
"It's time to turn off the lights."
"Oh, I almost forgot, I need to go home and turn on the lights."
...
"Hello, we are from the neighborhood committee."
"I have something important to inform you, please cooperate."
In the past few days, neighborhood committee staff have been knocking on the doors of people's homes across the country.
Staff from local street offices and neighborhood committees went door-to-door distributing leaflets.
Local governments and agencies also received direct administrative orders from the central government. The content of these documents was quite simple, and can be summarized in two words:
Turn off the lights, then turn them on.
In the wilderness, many more military vehicles travel through the night, but instead of soldiers or weapons, they carry various kinds of spotlights and searchlights.
Columns of military trains stretched endlessly across the wilderness...
...
The Leonid meteor shower, known as the king of meteor showers, is one of the four major astronomical phenomena.
However, the Leonid meteor shower is not actually a meteor shower in the constellation "Leo".
It was formed by particles ejected by a comet called Tempel Tuttle passing through the atmosphere.
The location of the meteor shower coincides with the constellation Leo, and from Earth's surface, it appears as if it originated from Leo, hence the name "Leonid meteor shower".
Is there anything more romantic than inviting a girl to watch a shooting star?
This is the most romantic thing Zhang Fan, a straight man, can imagine for a date.
"This is my first time seeing a meteor shower on Mars." Yui and Zhang Fan sat side by side, their legs swinging back and forth on the terrace.
This is a hemispherical protruding terrace in the "Bird's Nest" base. The entire terrace is surrounded by transparent glass, and there is an astronomical telescope in the center of the terrace, which is the best place to observe the stars.
"Yeah, it's my first time too." Zhang Fan nodded, secretly wanting to slap himself.
That's incredibly stupid. They completely forgot they're on Mars, and they don't even know if you can see meteor showers from Earth.
The Leonid meteor shower lasts for several hours, with peak bursts reaching thousands of meteors per hour, making it a spectacular sight.
Now is the time.
Zhang Fan checked the time, took Yui's hand, and walked towards the astronomical telescope.
...
Now is the time.
Liao Changtian checked the time. On the desolate wilderness in the dark night, countless military trains shone their lights into the sky.
Across the vast land of China, wherever there are windows above ground and wherever the sky can be seen, everything is either bright or dark at this moment.
...
"Mr. Zhang Fan, there seems to be some strange light on Earth."
"Oh? Was it a shooting star?"
"no."
"No? Let me see."
Zhang Fan walked to the telescope, bent down, squinted his left eye, and placed his right eye in front of the telescope tube.
Um?
Zhang Fan's pupils shrank instantly.
That was light on the land of China, countless points of light forming letters etched on the earth:
H–ELP
Help!
Help!
