Wearing a cute pink apron and a pair of white bunny slippers, Yaoyao excitedly walked to the table with the steaming hot pot.
Yaoyao had always been diligent.
Lin Lin, on the other hand, was on the other extreme.
With chopsticks in her hand, Lin Lin stared at the stacks of fresh vegetables and meat. Her delicate tongue flickered between her lips.
"Oh! There's hot pot! Hehe, delicious hot pot ~ "
"Don't just wait to eat, you should help Yaoyao out."
Jiang Chen opened the packaging of the "conjured" ingredients and poured the beef roll with ice on the plate. Then he looked at Lin Lin, who was eager to make a move.
The preservation function of the storage dimension was extremely powerful.
In a sense, it was really a convenient ability.
"No, it's okay." Hearing Jiang Chen's concern, Yaoyao's face turned red, and her mouth opened and closed. "It doesn't take a lot of help to prepare the hot pot. Sister Xiaorou is enough."
"Did you hear that? Yaoyao said it's okay." Lin Lin proudly raised her chin.
Jiang Chen looked at her in embarrassment.
He didn't understand what she was so proud of.
Just as Yaoyao said, hot pot didn't need to be troublesome to prepare.
The family sat around the table, and it didn't take long for the soup to boil.
When Lin Lin put food into the hot pot, her movements were unusually diligent. Seeing the food she personally put into the pot was delicious, she, who didn't know how to cook, felt unusually satisfied.
It was also one of the joys of eating hot pot.
Of course, the greatest joy of eating hot pot was the family sitting together and chatting.
More than once, Jiang Chen was glad that he chose to confess his secret to Sun Jiao and Yaoyao instead of weaving a "beautiful lie" about his origin.
One lie needed ten lies to cover it.
And when the lie was exposed, the estrangement caused to the people close to him couldn't be solved with a simple apology.
Unlike now?
He could sit at the dining table and chat with the girls about the interesting things that happened in that world without any scruples. He looked at the envious expressions on their faces and listened to their opinions from another world. Jiang Chen talked from Future Group to MLL Island, and finally to the Kurofune.
"Kurofune? How could someone be so stupid? If they want to become a worm, they can just do it themselves. " Sun Jiao stuck out her tongue and tossed a piece of beef into her mouth. She chewed happily.
Compared to Yao Yao who was a foodie, Sun Jiao was a true carnivore.
Of course, because of the gene agent's effect on her metabolism, she wouldn't get fat no matter how much she ate.
"You can't say that." Compared to her sister, Sun Xiaorou's opinions were often more intellectual. "I heard that before the war, NATO also used the advantage of democracy to launch a propaganda offensive against PAC and successfully incited the rebellion of South Asian citizens. Didn't the PAC mechanical brigade led by Sister Junhua participate in the suppression operation there? "
"Rebellion … This is different from Kurofune." Jiang Chen sighed.
"Same." Lin Lin waved her chopsticks and said nonchalantly, "Humans are always full of unrealistic fantasies about the outside world. Outsiders, provinces, foreign countries, the extraterrestrial civilization that expands the phenomenon to the planetary scale … it's all the same. What kind of life will they live? How will they solve the problems we face? Ah, it really makes people yearn for it … Well, that's about it. In behavioral science, it's called distance beauty, and the pursuit of beauty is often blind. "
Jiang Chen looked at Lin Lin in surprise.
"Look, what are you looking at me for?" Lin Lin was embarrassed by Jiang Chen's stare as she blushed and said fiercely.
"I didn't expect Lin Lin to occasionally say such profound words." Sun Jiao's red lips curled up as she joked.
Yao Yao also nodded and looked at Lin Lin in disbelief.
"That's enough! I'm also a scientist! Don't look at me like that, I'm older than all of you combined! I'm not the kind of person who slept for more than 20 years! "Lin Lin's face turned red as she waved her little fist angrily.
Everyone laughed. Sun Xiaorou, who was sitting next to her, gently touched Lin Lin's head. "For a girl, being older is not something to be proud of."
Lin Lin pouted and enjoyed Sun Xiaorou's touch. She didn't say anything else.
Sun Jiao raised her head and took a swig of coke as she spoke.
"But when it comes to the world beyond the stars … it always feels so far away."
"Yeah … completely unimaginable." Yao Yao also whispered in agreement.
"Compared to the distance in space, the distance in time is even more confusing … One hundred years later, I might not even be able to see the day of the final battle." Jiang Chen joked.
"That's not necessarily true." Lin Lin's ears moved, then she raised her head and said, "There are many ways to extend life …"
At this point, she turned her face away in embarrassment and said in a tsundere manner.
"After all … if you die so soon, I … I'll be bored."
The lifespan of digitalized humans was far longer than humans. And the higher the degree of modification, the longer the lifespan.
Jiang Chen paused for a moment before he laughed.
"Laugh, what are you laughing at!" Lin Lin was slightly annoyed.
"Lin Lin is an honest child," Xiaorou said with a smile, her eyes flashing with interest.
"Yao, Yao Yao will also be very lonely!" Yao Yao raised her hand, not to be outdone. She gathered her courage and said.
Because of her slow growth, Yao Yao, who was in puberty, still didn't show any signs of development. Using Lin Lin's words, with her current growth rate, she would still look like a little loli in ten years.
In theory, her lifespan would also be very long.
Sun Jiao sighed and spoke in her usual straightforward manner.
"If that's the case, then we can all live forever."
"Sister, in a sense, immortality is a curse," Xiaorou said meaningfully.
"Is that so? Living forever is a curse? "Sun Jiao said nonchalantly.
"But staying with interesting people, no matter how long it is, it won't be boring." Xiaorou looked at Jiang Chen and sighed.
Immortality …
For people with authority, it was indeed attractive.
Jiang Chen thought about the secret of immortality revealed by Bo Yu of the Dusk Church, then he suddenly looked at Sun Jiao and asked.
"Speaking of which, Sun Jiao, where is your hometown … Fallout Shelter 071?"
"Fallout Shelter 071? Ah, it's near Hucheng. Why? "Sun Jiao tilted her head as she chewed on food.
"I've decided!" Jiang Chen suddenly stood up. "The goal of the expedition will be Hucheng!"
Sun Jiao looked at Jiang Chen in shock as she swallowed the food in her mouth.
"Are you sure? Hucheng is five to six hundred kilometers from here! "
Along the way, there would be zombies, mutants, raiders, mutated humans, cannibals … A powerful lone wolf may be able to traverse such a long distance, a merchant fleet protected by mercenaries may be able to barely pass, but for a massive target like an army to traverse such a long distance, first of all, it would be a terrifying pressure on logistics.
But Jiang Chen only smiled.
"Don't forget, we still have the steel airship!"
