Chapter 853: Knowing the Ways of the World
In the banquet hall, people were dressed in fine clothes and drinking wine, a scene of prosperity on earth.
Since it was the first time to arrive at an alien planet, the environment in Lincheng was relatively safe, and everyone who could get off the Noah got off.
They all gathered in the banquet hall, enjoying their first alien dinner.
Cen Fangyuan and two other deputy captains stood and laughed with the Lu family and many other Tiandu people. Cui Yan also held a glass of wine and accompanied them with a stern face.
Jin Sichen wore sunglasses ostentatiously, standing here and there, chatting with people everywhere like a fish in water.
The young nurse Wu Yi squinted her eyes while eating with a plate in the buffet area.
Antonio was like a butterfly, fluttering around in the venue.
Other staff and technicians gathered in twos and threes, curiously communicating with the Tiandu people.
The crew members were scattered everywhere, enjoying the food or gathering to chat. But if you look closely, you can find that they seem to have included those members of the Noah with low combat power in their protection range. If any emergency occurs, they can respond immediately.
The lights are bright, the fragrance is everywhere, and there are songs and dances...
Lin Fan looked at everything in front of him in a trance, and his mind couldn't help but appear again in front of the dilapidated shanty, the skinny...
No, no, no! She said not to think too much!
Lin Fan shook his head lightly and shattered the gradually clear picture without hesitation.
"Oh, my dear lady," Antonio slid in front of her, took off his hat in a pretentious manner, lifted up Lin Fan's other hand on his leg, and knelt on one knee, "I wonder if I have the honor to dance with you?"
After saying that, he also kissed Lin Fan's hand in a pretentious way.
Lin Fan was frightened and thought what this drama queen was going to do again.
This Antonio is obviously H countryman, and Latin, where did he learn these noble etiquette? It's totally irrelevant.
She kept complaining in her heart, but she put on a sweet smile on her face: "Of course, dear Antonio, if you are not afraid of your feet being pierced by my heels."
Antonio was originally happy, but when he heard the latter part, he subconsciously looked down. Under the slender ankle, the silver heel was as sharp as a weapon, emitting a dazzling cold light...
Gently putting Lin Fan's hand back on her leg, Antonio smiled nonchalantly: "Hehe, I'm just joking. You continue to sit..."
He retreated while talking, and turned around and ran away before the voice fell...
Lin Fan laughed and changed his leg to continue to lift it.
Tsk, "crystal shoes" are really not something that ordinary people can wear.
"Does it feel bad?"
A glass cup filled with white liquid suddenly appeared in front of him. Looking up from the hand holding the cup, it was Jin Sichen with a fake smile on his face.
Most people on the Noah knew that Lin Fan didn't like such occasions and wasn't good at those roundabout conversations. They tacitly stopped all the people from Lincheng who wanted to approach them to show their goodwill, but they left Lin Fan alone.
"It's OK," Lin Fan took the cup and smelled it, "What is it?"
"I don't know, it's said to be juice, Wu Yi said it's like a concentrated version of AD calcium milk, you'll like it." Jin Sichen drank a sip of the bubbling golden liquid in his hand, "The drinks here are different from those in Lanxing, they have a different taste."
Lin Fan glanced at the buffet table. Wu Yizheng waved at her excitedly with a plate full of food, and smiled and waved at her, taking a sip: "Well, it tastes a bit like thick yogurt, you say it's juice?"
Jin Sichen shrugged: "Who knows. I haven't had a chance to ask you, how are you feeling recently?"
"Are you asking now or a few days ago?" Lin Fan posed in an impeccable and perfect posture, raised the glass upwards, and clinked it with Jin Sichen's glass, "To be honest, such a comfortable soft chair, I really want to lie down, lean my head on the armrest here, and cross my legs over there."
But now, she can only sit upright, keep her waist straight, and be careful not to touch the jewelry... It's really painful!
"Hahahaha..." Jin Sichen laughed, "It's not that easy to be a mascot."
"How about you come?" Lin Fan smiled and glanced at him.
"Oh, I want to, too, but unfortunately I can't help!" Jin Sichen laughed wickedly, "So why was our irreplaceable Captain Lin worried just now?"
Although Jin Sichen didn't stand beside her, his eyes never left her. As the person who is most familiar with Lin Fan's emotions, he naturally didn't miss the brief shock on her face.
Lin Fan said nothing to hide.
"You should know that a piece of cake, divided equally among everyone, seems fair, but no one will be full, and no one will have enough energy to hunt and build. Instead, satisfying some people first and focusing on improving the strength of the head will promote development faster. As for the backward part... except for the youngest son, they can't be considered completely innocent, they can only be said to be the product of the times."
Jin Sichen took a sip of wine with a faint expression.
"I know, I know everything." Lin Fan exhaled lightly, "But..."
Knowing is knowing, but still inexplicably caring, and even a little sad.
She even thought, wouldn't it be better to give the food to those who can't eat tonight? At least they can have a full meal, right?
Jin Sichen smiled brightly.
So why do they like Lin Fan? One of the reasons is that she is worldly-wise, but still retains her original kindness. It may sound silly, but it is exactly what those cunning people who have long lost their innocence lack.
The slums of Lincheng and the end of Tiandu Star are all things that they, as aliens, cannot interfere with. Otherwise, interfering in the internal affairs of other planets is a diplomatic taboo.
Lin Fan understands all of this, so naturally he won't cause trouble for his own people.
"Look at this scene," she took the initiative to divert the topic, motioning Jin Sichen to look at the lively scenes that can be seen everywhere in the venue, "Does it look like what we looked like when the octopus people first came to Lanxing?"
Jin Sichen laughed softly: "So the suppression brought by high technology is more daunting than simple military oppression, which is also the original intention of our exploration of the stars."
Lin Fan nodded. Finding newer and better technological assistance for Lanxing is the core mission of Noah's departure, but they didn't expect that the first stop would be Tiandu Star, which is less developed than them and unfortunately fell into the end of the world.
"So you guys are chatting so lively," Lin Fan looked at the harmonious leadership chat group again and asked: "Have you found out the reason for the end of the world?"
If Noah didn't want to know this and avoid danger for Lanxing, it would have left long ago.
She also asked Lu Yuhao, but he said he didn't know.
"Well... I found an opportunity to test Lu Qingyang," Jin Sichen squatted down and unnoticeably clicked his sunglasses, "Although there is no evidence, he thinks this disaster is completely man-made."
"Man-made disaster?" Lin Fan was surprised, "Apocalypse caused by humans?... Who can be so capable?"
Jin Sichen twitched his mouth, "Why do you think those who drank the physical enhancement potion would mutate into unconscious, bloodthirsty and flesh-eating zombies? And by chance, there are crystal cores in their brains similar to those of mutant plants?"
Lin Fan was shocked, his mind instantly cleared, and he couldn't believe it.
"Penang?!"
