Third floor
Luo Tan pondered the name Xu Cheng in his mind for a long time, but he didn't understand anything.
It just added to my troubles and I tossed and turned for half the night without falling asleep.
On the surface, she appears to be sociable and easy-going, but those are just the qualities necessary to integrate into society.
Her true personality is far from the cheerful and optimistic little sun.
In fact, given her family and her suffocating parents, it is difficult for her to raise a child with a truly optimistic and cheerful personality.
But although she is cold, she is not bad.
She will be nice to whoever is nice to her.
The people in Chishui Street were kind to her, so until now, she would send them gifts from time to time, and of course, she also often received greetings from them.
The people of Chishui Street filled the missing emotional gap in her heart.
However, Xu Cheng is a very strange person.
Rather than just being friends, he seemed to want to go deeper.
Going deeper inside, what does he want?
Luo Tan lay flat on his back, looking at the ceiling, thinking quietly:
No matter what he wants, there is only a cold wall inside. He will get hurt.
In this world, most people have two layers. The outer layer is used to adapt to various environments, commonly known as life is like a play, it all depends on acting; the inner layer is the real thoughts, full of madness and those inhumane desires.
But Luo Tan can be divided into three layers.
On the outermost layer, she can joke and play with others, acting like an innocent and lively little sun; the innermost layer is her real emotions; but there is another layer inside, which is a cold and indifferent wall that resists everyone's approach.
She won't let anyone get close to her.
…
Luo Tan thought for half the night, her eyelids became heavier and heavier. Just when she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly felt her body sink.
What the hell?
Is Xu Cheng sick?
Is he really sick? Not to mention the innermost layer, he doesn't even want to know her true thoughts!
She wanted to kick Xu Cheng down directly.
But at this moment, a shrill alarm sounded in her ears.
No, that was not an alarm ringing in the outside world, but came from the system in her head!
Luo Tan noticed something was wrong, she opened her eyes——
Directly above her, face to face, a man with a distorted face showed his white teeth at her. The moonlight shone through the gaps in the curtains and shone on the man's bloody mouth. Luo Tan could clearly see that transparent saliva was dripping from his teeth.
“Aaaaaaaaah!”
Even more piercing than her screams is the voice in her heart. If her screams have to go through layers of walls to reach people's ears, then the voice in her heart is like ten loud speakers blowing continuously into people's ears!
No one can resist such a sonic attack!
Therefore, almost only half a minute later, there was a knock on Luo Tan's door.
"Princess, you..."
The maid knocked on the door and saw this horrific scene, and then she let out a second terrifying scream.
Who can tell her?
Why is there a strange-looking man lying on the princess?
And the man who was pulling that man away was another man?
Shouldn't she have come?
…
When Xu Cheng pinned the man who had attacked Luo Tan to the ground, the room was already filled with so many people that there was almost no place to step.
Luo Tan sat on the edge of the bed, patting his chest in shock. He took the towel handed to him by the maid and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
She took the calming milk handed to her by Brother Hei and took a sip.
She took the candy that Xu Cheng handed over to her and put one in her mouth.
Emperor Nicholas had two dark circles under his eyes, and it looked like he was also woken up from his sleep. He sighed deeply, "Poor child."
He was worried:
Unexpectedly, even the imperial palace is not safe. How can they protect the "national treasure" of their empire?
Simba, the chief steward, stepped forward and looked at the man restrained on the ground for a while. Then, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, he reported to the emperor, "He is the gardener in charge of the duty today."
Even the palace steward, who had seen a lot of things, frowned: "It's really strange. His previous physical examinations have always shown that he is healthy and has no symptoms of mental illness. According to the previous background check results, his ancestors should not have a family history of genetic diseases. Otherwise, he would never have been able to work in the palace."
Andre said at the right time: "Recently, there have been frequent incidents of sudden attacks of neurosis on various planets. This gardener may have been infected as well."
Simba became worried: "I heard that too, but I didn't expect that such a thing would happen in the palace. I will arrange a full physical examination tomorrow."
[But, a physical examination can't detect it. This is a possession level. Whoever is possessed will be affected! ]
What? Possessed?
Simba was about to leave when his steps got stuck, his legs stiff, one in front of the other, and he didn't know whether to turn around or not.
Several maids present stared with wide eyes. One of the maids was holding a glass of milk. The tray in her hand tilted and the glass fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Luo Chen: [Oh my god, are you all so excited about the physical examination? But then again, maybe the physical examination can really detect something? After all, this is a high-tech physical examination in the Star Age! I am presumptuous, I should have more confidence and respect for it! ]
Simba and the maids were in tears:
We are not surprised by the medical examination! We want to know more about possession, please tell us more soon!
But Luo Tan said nothing more. Her whole mind had drifted into an ocean of imagination, and her mind was full of what the physical examination in the interstellar era could reveal.
"How about..." Luo Tan said to Simba's chief steward with great interest, "How about you come back and give me a physical examination as well?"
Simba: "Huh?"
Luo Chen regarded his surprise as a silent rejection, and her enthusiasm was instantly extinguished by a basin of ice water poured over her head.
She pursed her lips and said, "Is it expensive?"
Simba immediately said: "Not expensive! If you want, I can arrange it for you right away! Yes, yes, yes, arrange it as soon as possible, tomorrow!"
Although few people are interested in physical examinations.
But this makes sense to the magical Luo Chen!
At this time, someone hurried past Simba.
He looked over and saw that this was the maid who had just delivered the towels. Why did she leave?
Just as he was about to ask, he saw a maid giving him a pitiful look.
Simba miraculously deciphered the meaning in her eyes.
Wuuuu, we don’t want to be possessed, so we’ll run away first.
Simba understood.
It is known that the unfortunate gardener on earth made a surprise attack as a result of possession.
As for the word "possession", they understood it without Luo Tan explaining it.
The possessed person must still exist in this room, so... whoever is in this room has a chance of being possessed!
Thinking of this, Simba's calves began to tremble. He said to Nicholas, "Your Majesty, I will hurry up and arrange the physical examination for tomorrow."
After getting the emperor's promise, he ran very fast.
A maid had just picked up the broken glass on the floor and said quickly, "I'll go dump these pieces!"
Another maid also made an excuse and left in a hurry.
…
But in the blink of an eye, the room was almost empty.
At this time, a guard knocked on the door and came in. He took the possessed gardener from Xu Cheng and took him away for custody.
Xu Cheng clapped his hands and stood up.
"Can you explain why you were in my daughter's room in the middle of the night?"
Emperor Nicholas's majestic voice rang out.
Xu Cheng didn't stand steadily and almost fell.
He was careless! He forgot there was another one waiting for him!
Nicholas wanted to ask this question as soon as he entered the room, but his mind was full of what Luo Chen said about possession, so he remembered this question only now.
Xu Cheng just said: "I was afraid that she would be in danger, so I protected her--"
Then I heard Luo Tan's worried voice:
【Fortunately, he didn't say it was to protect him. 】
The corner of Xu Cheng's mouth twitched, and he almost couldn't maintain his expression.
【Otherwise the emperor will be very angry. 】
Nicholas was indeed very angry:
He is a man, and he needs his daughter to protect him!
Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was his daughter who was more dangerous, so there was no reason Xu Cheng needed protection!
His little thoughts are obvious!
Nicholas looked at Xu Cheng as if he was looking at the big bad wolf who kidnapped his simple, cute and innocent daughter.
Even if Xu Cheng didn't look in that direction, he couldn't ignore the emperor's sinister gaze that seemed to stab him immediately. He could only bite the bullet and continue to say, "I didn't expect Luo Tan to be in danger. Fortunately, we managed to catch up in time."
Nicholas's expression softened a little:
No matter what, the big bad wolf still protected his daughter at the critical moment.
But he was not so easy to fool. As soon as he opened his mouth, the emperor's majesty was revealed: "Even if you want protection, what's the point of sleeping in the same bed?"
So Xu Cheng went to the empty room next door and moved a recliner. In the second half of the night, he had to use the recliner as a bed.
The sleeping space suddenly decreased by 10086.
.
On the second day, Luo Tan and Xu Cheng, yawning, set out on a journey to find the "New Continent".
According to the existing information, God is the only weapon against alien invasion.
In theory, they only need to collect the gods like collecting cards to drive away all the invaders!
Unfortunately, gods are not cards.
They didn't even know where to collect the first one.
An idea suddenly popped up in Luo Tan's mind, like a small light bulb lighting up.
"You said that gods should appear on earth!"
Xu Cheng yawned sleepily: "Why?"
He didn't sleep well at all in the second half of the night. It was like a grown man forced into a chicken cage. He couldn't think at all.
But he still tried his best to pretend:
I'm thinking.
Luo Chen thought the reason was simple: "Gods are the product of human civilization after a long history of belief! Before the interstellar age, humans lived on Earth. At that time, we had so many mythological stories that we could never finish hearing them. But later we moved to six other planets. These six planets were deserts before humans arrived. How could gods be born in a hundred years?"
"Let's take another example. You've heard of gods with lifespans of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years, but have you ever heard of gods that are only a few dozen years old?"
Xu Cheng realized: "So, the key to solving the problem is still on Earth!"
They hit it off immediately and decided to go directly to Earth first, and decide where to go after they got there.
Maybe we should find a place where there are many legends about Jedi Spirits!
Just as Luo Chen was about to step onto the spaceship, she suddenly heard the system alarm.
She opened the map and found that the red dot was exactly across the street.
[Hey, is this a family? There is actually a husband forcing his wife to do that! ]
She was about to run in that direction, but Xu Cheng grabbed her sleeve.
The expression on Xu Cheng's face was a little subtle.
He thought, since it was a family matter, there was no need to interfere.
However, Luo Tan grabbed his sleeve and ran in that direction!
Her mind was full of:
[Marital rape is also rape! ]
