"Dear passengers, we have arrived at Jupiter Union. We wish you a safe journey and a pleasant trip."
As soon as I stepped off the airship, I heard excited shouts.
It was Yu Qinlu. Upon receiving the news, she rushed to the airship field to wait. When she saw Xia Shizhao, she waved and called out, "Shizhao! Over here!!"
She was jumping and hopping around, making her extremely eye-catching; it would be hard for Xia Shizhao not to notice her.
She rushed to Xia Shizhao, looked him up and down, and her face showed a relieved expression. Her tone was full of relief, "Thank goodness you're alright. Are you hurt?"
As he spoke, he pulled her up and down and touched her all over.
Xia Shizhao sighed and held out his hand for her to see, "I'm really fine, didn't the news say so?"
Yu Qinlu laughed heartily, "Our Shi Zhao is a lucky man, blessed by heaven. He survived a great calamity and will surely be blessed with good fortune in the future."
"Of course." Xia Shizhao said with his hands on his hips, a hint of pride in his voice.
The next second, Yu Qinlu's eyes reddened: "I've been so worried for the past three months, I didn't know how to find you..."
"Oh, don't cry. I'm back now. It's not your fault, it's the robber's fault."
"I didn't cry, I was crying tears of joy."
"Okay, okay, you're not crying, you're just happy for me," Xia Shizhao coaxed.
After confirming that Xia Shizhao appeared to be unharmed, Yu Qinlu gripped her hand tightly:
"The old lady has prepared a meal and is waiting for you to come home so we can eat together."
"Okay, sure."
The journey to the village took an hour. Xia Shizhao was dragged around by her, bombarded with questions, and reluctantly recounted his experiences, successfully gaining Yu Qinlu's admiration.
"As expected, Shi Zhao is still the most powerful. But they deserved it; who told them to rob him by force?"
As Yu Qinlu, who was driving, listened to her incredible experience, she couldn't help but sigh.
"This research on the mech using Zerg crystal cores as energy was a great success. I'll build you a custom-made mech when we get back to school."
"Holy crap! Zhao Zhao, I love you!" Yu Qinlu almost let go of the steering wheel and kissed Xia Shizhao.
Most mechs used by ordinary soldiers are mass-produced, while only a few have custom-made mechs. Simply put, the mechs are bound to a master and can only be used by people whose mental strength matches theirs.
"Hmph, don't love me, it won't lead anywhere."
Xia Shizhao, sitting lazily in the passenger seat, leaned back.
"Xiaoyuan sent me a message, can you take a look?"
Yu Qinlu's phone vibrated. Xia Shizhao picked it up and glanced at it. "She said that she and Xiaojing found something fun, and the food is ready. They're just waiting for us to arrive."
"There's still half an hour, no rush."
Yu Qinlu said slowly.
While replying to the message, Xia Shizhao said, "I just told Xiaoyuan that I would make some desserts for them when I get back, and I'm so happy."
"Hey, I won't let her do her homework if she hasn't finished it."
"She said she'd bite you to death when you got home."
Xia Shizhao covered his mouth and laughed heartily.
Rolling her eyes, Yu Qinlu gave a disdainful snort:
"Hmph, I can kick that little bean sprout a long way, and even if you bite me to death, you can't even touch me, okay?"
"I sent her the exact words, but she hasn't replied. I guess she's gone out to have fun."
"What are you playing around with? Tell her to come and greet us."
Xia Shizhao chuckled and slapped her arm. "Do you think you're the emperor?"
"No, I am the rebellious regent, she is the little emperor of the house."
Yu Qinlu pouted, and Xia Shizhao shook his head helplessly. These two are such a pair of clowns.
Looking up at the sky, I thought, "It looks like it's going to rain."
"It's okay, we're almost there anyway, it won't come down until we get home."
After parking the car in the marked garage, Yu Qinlu and her companion strolled slowly toward the small village.
"Home is still the best place, with fresh air."
Xia Shizhao, smelling the odor in the air, lazily sighed, "The moment I opened my eyes on that airship, all I saw was welding; it smelled like sparks everywhere."
Looking towards the village entrance, Xia Shizhao couldn't wait to meet Grandma Yu and the others.
But the village was quiet, as if no one was there.
Yu Qinlu was also a little stunned. "Strange, why is it so quiet? Are they all resting? That brat really isn't coming to pick us up!"
"It's a bit cold, so waiting at home is fine."
The two walked to their front door, pushed it open, and entered. On the table were only dishes that looked very delicious. Xia Shizhao went forward and touched them.
It's a little warm.
It's been on the table for a long time.
"Grandma Yu?" Xia Shizhao went to Grandma Yu's room on the second floor.
"Yu Yunyuan?" Yu Qinlu walked to the next room and called her sister's name.
There was no response.
Yu Qinlu scratched the back of her head in confusion, "That's strange, where is everyone?"
Xia Shizhao had a bad feeling, his fingers felt a little cold, and he frowned.
Why does it have to flare up at this time?
After getting off the airship, she didn't have much medicine left. She needed to drink three bottles to be effective, but she only had one bottle left.
Suppressing her inexplicable irritation, she glanced out the window. "Could they have gone to Aunt Liu's house next door?"
"Probably, I'll go look for it." When Yu Qinlu was about to go downstairs, she saw Xia Shizhao's slightly pale face and touched her forehead with concern. "Are you having a hypoglycemic episode? Eat first, I'll call them over to eat."
"I don't have low blood sugar, but I feel a bit cold, it's an old problem."
Xia Shizhao shook his head and said, "I'll go with you. It's boring to eat alone."
"Okay."
The two walked side by side on the path, looking at the shade of the trees around them, with only the sound of each other's footsteps in their ears; the silence in the air was frightening.
When Xia Shizhao arrived at Aunt Liu's door, he knocked hurriedly and called out loudly, "Aunt Liu, are you home? It's me, Shizhao. Are Grandma Yu and Xiaoyuan at your house, Aunt?"
Yu Qinlu felt a slight palpitation and a strange sense of panic.
He couldn't help but start shouting:
"Auntie, I'm Qin Lu. Are my grandma and sister at your house?"
The two voices gradually grew louder, and no one around them made a sound.
I went to Uncle Yang's house next door and knocked on the door, but there was still no response.
It was as if everyone had gone out.
Turning her head abruptly, Yu Qinlu suppressed her unease, "Let's go to the back mountain to look..."
Suddenly, Xia Shizhao, who was standing behind Yu Qinlu, shoved her away. Xia Shizhao herself fell to the ground, staring in shock at the thick, smooth pipe in front of her.
His brain reacted instantly, and he stood up abruptly, throwing Yu Qinlu a weapon and an energy sword. He then took several steps back, leaving the attack range.
Yu Qinlu, who had also reacted, picked up her gun and fired several shots at the Zerg's tongue, pinning it to the ground. She then stepped on the tongue and jumped three meters high, severing it in half.
Light blue liquid splashed everywhere.
The impatient Zergling let out a painful howl.
