Chapter 102: Acquaintance Becomes Stepmother



Another night passed after the office meeting.

The time for the agreed departure date has arrived.

In Europa's underground hangar, the selected shuttle is making final preparations for takeoff.

Arel has been following Bai Yi, and over the time they have spent together, the two have established a pretty good friendship.

Before leaving, Bai Yi took out a self-sealing plastic bag from his pocket, took out two green crystal-like objects from it and handed them to him.

"This is?"

Arel stared at the thing in Bai Yi's hand, and felt that it exuded a faint fragrance that made his heart flutter.

"Death ambergris, real death ambergris."

Bai Yi explained cheerfully.

"I used a lot of strength to knock it off Tikaion. Consider it a small gift for you."

But it was obvious that Arel didn't know the value of it.

But this is normal. Few boys of his age would care about these luxury goods.

"Anyway, all you need to know is that it's a very expensive spice."

Bai Yi didn't hesitate, he took his hand and forced the broken pieces into his palm.

Arel's face immediately turned embarrassed.

He didn't expect Bai Yi to give him a gift, so he didn't prepare any return gift.

Bai Yi naturally saw the other party's embarrassment. He knew it was better not to expose it at this time, so he waved his hand and prepared to go back to board the plane.

"Wait a moment, please wait a moment."

Unexpectedly, Arel called him.

"Please wait a moment. I have someone I want to introduce you to."

"Um?"

Bai Yi just stepped onto the shuttle and then retracted his left foot. Someone must be introduced to him on the day of departure.

"The shuttle will take a while to warm up anyway. Wait here for me, I'll be right back."

Without waiting for Bai Yi's agreement, Arel ran away.

But he left quickly and came back quickly.

But this time when he came back, he didn't walk, but rode a balance bike.

This two-wheeled balance vehicle is the most common means of transportation in the base and is loved by people from all walks of life.

Arel's balance bike was in the front, followed closely by another one.

Judging from her clothes, this person is obviously a woman, as she is wearing a white dress with gold edges and her waist-length hair is blowing in the wind.

This person was not tall, only about 1.7 meters tall. So Bai Yi guessed that she was not a local and must have come from somewhere else.

Having been in Europe for so long, he has hardly ever seen a local person shorter than 1.8 meters.

The balance bike stopped in front of Bai Yi, and then the two got off.

This time, Bai Yi's speculation was truly verified.

The girl was barely 1.7 meters tall, and she was the only one among all the people present that Bai Yi could look down upon, which helped him regain some of his aura.

"Bai Yi, this is the person I want to introduce to you."

Arel pointed at the girl beside him, but unfortunately she was wearing a mask, which looked very much like the red-faced image in local operas, so it was impossible to tell who she was.

"You two have the same destination, Father. Oh, no. The inspector specifically told me to let her go with you."

"I see."

Bai Yi showed a look of understanding, it seemed that he was just taking a ride on his coattails.

But the solar system shouldn't be so poor that it would save a little money on fuel.

Bai Yi's eyes involuntarily looked around. In the spacious and magnificent hangar, there were hundreds of spaceships of all sizes parked on the bright side.

Thousands of staff members travel through these spacecraft day and night without stopping. Combined with the fact that they previously kept a large number of idle people as pets just to ensure the efficiency of the researchers, it doesn't seem like they are short of money at all.

"Hello, Mr. Bai Yi."

The girl bowed slightly to show her respect.

The voice sounded very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

But then she took off the mask on her face.

Now Bai Yi recognized it.

He was shocked.

His eyes kept scanning the girl's and Arel's faces.

“She…she…you…you…”

"Why are you here?"

That girl was none other than Liu Shasha, Secretary General of the United Nations Luofan.

Bai Yi remembered that he was the one who brought the person to court personally.

I won't admit my mistake.

Ever since they met, Bai Yi could never forget her eyes.

It's because Liu Shasha's left eye is single eyelid, but her right eye is double eyelid. Although she sometimes uses double eyelid tape to cover her left eye, with the help of props, there are always some differences between the two eyes.

"You never thought of that?"

Liu Shasha looked as if her evil plan had succeeded.

"How does it feel to see old friends again?"

"We are not old friends."

Bai Yi thought carefully about the past experiences of the two.

"At best, I've been caught by Interpol as a fugitive. So, are you released after serving your sentence?"

"What are you talking about?"

Liu Shasha pretended to be displeased.

"I have to thank you very much. Without you, our civilization would have been destroyed long ago."

"Really?"

Bai Yi scratched his head.

"We'll discuss the details on the way. Now, can you tell me why you're here? And why are you traveling with me?"

"This is my stepmother."

Arel dropped a bombshell, almost knocking Bai Yi unconscious.

"What the hell?"
