You Are Deep in The Stars - Chapter 56

Whether they were earthlings or aliens, they all had the same weakness— as long as there was even a small possibility of a stable and peaceful life, it was enough to make most of them lose the courage to fight and choose to continue to be content with the status quo.

So Old Zhou and his unsafe drugs actually helped the underground warehouse to a certain extent, allowing them to choose experimental subjects more calmly, just like facing a group of broiler chickens that would never resist.

This was the ironic and cruel reality.

“Tell me what you do you think of Han Zhuo,” Liang Yi took off his gloves, “and the kid next to him, who is also your daughter’s college classmate, Bai Xi. I heard that he once sent the unconscious Jingjing back home.”

“You really know everything.” Zhou Yong sighed. “Yes, if he didn’t have the identity of a superpower, I thought I would like him very much. He seemed humble and polite.”

“They want people with superpowers to leave the Earth and return to their own homes,” Liang Yi said. “What did you think of this idea?”

“Relying solely on our aerospace power should not have been enough to build this kind of spacecraft,” Zhou Yong replied.

“But we could emit signals and once again connect with those mysterious sound waves from the universe,” Liang Yi said. “So, this idea isn’t completely impossible.”

“If that’s the case…” Zhou Yong hesitated. “Of course, it is good.” Whether it was for superpowers or the history of the universe, it was a sensational and magnificent event. Of course, the only passive lag might be human beings. In scientific research, after all, without superpowers, there would be no experimental subjects.

“What do you think, Teacher?” he asked again.

“I remain neutral,” Liang Yi replied. “I am opposed to Feng Qi and Shi Tian’s bloody killings, but I don’t want to lose the experimental data. At the same time, I am looking forward to witnessing this grand homecoming ceremony in my lifetime.”

Zhou Yong nodded and continued, “By the way, Shi Tian used Feng Qi to send a message. They threatened me quietly and banned any more private contact with Han Zhuo.”

“It’s normal, but I am really looking forward to getting to know him,” Liang Yi said. “Legendary superpowers, whether in terms of physical functions, thoughts, or behaviours, are very… respectable.”

Ms. Zhuang called and asked when he would come home.

“Right away,” Liang Yi said seriously. “I’m shopping for Shakespeare in the bookstore.”

“Is the teacher leaving?” Zhou Yong asked.

“At least another hour,” Liang Yi hung up the phone and looked at the numbers on the screen. “I have to make sure Jingjing is fine first. And your wife, do you want me to take a look at her?”

“She always blames herself. She said she wouldn’t take medicine unless Jingjing is fine,” Zhou Yong sighed. “And she is still unwilling to talk to me or see anyone. She just sits there every day, crying silently.”

“There is no need to blame herself; she’s also an innocent victim,” Liang Yi said. “There is no absolute right or wrong in many things, such as Old Zhou and your wife’s original choice. You could also take advantage of this time to think about the whole thing carefully and what kind of attitude you should use to work in the future—I still don’t recommend that you be completely hostile to Feng Qi.”

Zhou Yong nodded. “I understand; don’t worry, teacher.”

“Go and take a rest,” Liang Yi patted him on the shoulder. “Leave it to me quietly.”

The tall and thin girl was still laying quietly on the bed. Due to the sudden growth of her bones, her skin was slightly translucent. As for why these abnormalities occurred, in addition to her own superpower genes and the pathological development in her mother’s body, there was actually another important reason: she had been injected with experimental drugs by her boyfriend, so everything happened, speeding up and losing control.

Shi Tian claimed to have no knowledge of all this, and Feng Qi also came to apologize in person, saying that he would strengthen drug control in the underground warehouse in the future and asked him not to tell Zhou Yong about it, lest the irritable veteran would be affected by it. Crazy—as for whether it was true ignorance or whether the two of them pretended not to know just to teach Zhou Yong a lesson, who knew.

Liang Yi shook his head in his heart. He gently touched the poor girl’s face through the glass cover.

It was snowing outside, mixed with a little rain, making the air cold and fresh.

Bai Xi was wrapped in a thick down jacket and wandered along the roadside flower bed.

“Be careful of falling,” Han Zhuo held his arm.

Bai Xi complained, “My hands are cold.”

Han Zhuo corrected him, “Theoretically, your hands can melt the Antarctic ice.”

“Theoretically speaking, most girls can actually unscrew the cap of mineral water bottles,” Bai Xi replied, “but they still need boyfriends.”

Mr. Han corrected his mistake when he realized it. He immediately held the cold hand and stuffed it into his coat pocket.
