"Professor Ye, what do we have for lunch?" When preparing lunch, Wang Youquan came to ask Yevgeny as usual.

"The twice-cooked pork you made yesterday is very good," Yevgeny replied, turning his eyes away from the computer a little, "by the way, make it less spicy..." After a pause, Yevgeny added: " The kind that really puts less, puts less."

"Okay." Wang Youquan smiled: "Why don't you make tomato scrambled eggs, while the food is still fresh."

"It's okay." Yevgeny actually misses borscht even more, but unfortunately Wang Youquan can't cook this dish.

The dishes in the refrigerator are all brought from the earth and put in the refrigerator—this refrigerator is said to be this "smart body". Anyway, it was made by foreigners and aliens. It looks similar to the earth, but just a little bit. — not plugged into the wire, but with the battery.But since they came here, the battery has not been used up yet, and Wang Youquan asked Professor Ye specifically when to change the battery—don't spoil the dishes in the refrigerator.

Yevgeny laughed at the time - the power of this superconducting battery, if cut off, is enough to last the refrigerator for ten years.Wang Youquan was also someone who had seen the "spiritual stone" in the last mission, but in a different environment, he still instinctively used the thinking of the earth to think about the problem.

Yevgeny was not used to rice, so Wang Youquan ordered spaghetti with twice-cooked pork and tomato scrambled eggs, which tasted like a combination of Chinese and Western.

The life here is definitely incomparable to the earth, and the most important factor is naturally because there is no Internet.In the first few days, Wang Youquan enjoyed it quite a bit. There was no nagging from his wife, and he didn’t need to worry about tasks. He felt that he came here just to be Yevgeny’s companion, mainly to do logistics work.Usually, it is enough to sweep the floor, cook, and talk with Yevgeny.

But after only four or five days, Wang Youquan began to feel a little impatient.Just like today, after eating, Wang Youquan went to wash the dishes first, and after Yevgeny finished eating, he went to wash Yevgeny's bowls. After finally confirming that there were no dishes to wash, he could only go back to the living room. Staring at his computer in a daze.

God is sorry, cooking is okay, but Wang Youquan actually hates washing dishes the most when he is at home.

Wang Youquan brought the computer from home. He originally bought it for himself, but at home it is usually used by his wife and children—most of the time it is the children.

Apart from a few games that children like to play, Korean dramas downloaded by his wife, and some card games that Wang Youquan has downloaded before, there is nothing else in the computer.

In fact, Xu Yan and Shen Changwen told him to bring more games before coming here, but at that time, he and Xu Yan wanted to show off and save face, so Wang Youquan rejected it righteously, and said plausibly: "Going out this time is It’s not for going on vacation to play games, but if you really have the skills, you might as well learn more.”

So now in Wang Youquan's computer, there is a whole set of physics and mathematics textbooks recommended by Wu Xiaoqing, from junior high school to university...

After studying these textbooks for three days, Wang Youquan truly understood a truth, that there is indeed a difference between people.

For example, the hypnotic effect, Wu Xiaoqing can read the same book without falling asleep, but when he reads it, he feels sleepy.These books serve absolutely no purpose other than to help him yawn a few more times.If it was Wang Youquan in the past, he might still look at it for the sake of probability, and read that part seriously for a few hours, but now his addiction to gambling has been removed...

Wang Youquan raised his eyes from the computer again. Yevgeny had been staring at his screen for three hours without moving from the time he finished his meal.It can be seen that he must be thinking about something, and it must be very important, something related to the task. Several times, Wang Youquan saw Yevgeny looking towards him. Obviously, there is something that needs to be with him at any time. Said, but finally still no.

Wang Youquan got up to boil water, and asked Yevgeny, "Professor, do I need to make you a cup of coffee?"

"Don't be busy," Yevgeny said, and then said, "Go and call Zhiti, I have something to say to him."

The intelligent body, or the virtual body controlled by the intelligent body, lives downstairs from them. Every once in a while, Yevgeny will go over to talk to him.They all spoke in English, and Wang Youquan could hardly understand them.

Of course, Wang Youquan can also chat with the other party in Chinese, and Zhiti’s answer will be thoughtfully changed into Chinese, but the result is the same: when chatting with Zhiti, the Chinese reply is more difficult than what Yevgeny said. understand.

After Zhiti came over, he and Yevgeny began to communicate in English.

Wang Youquan could only judge the content of their communication by Yevgeny's expression.

At the beginning, Yevgeny kept a habitual smile on his face, but after Zhiti said a few words, his expression changed.Red for a while and white for a while, if Wang Youquan had seen his opponents look like this on the gambling table before, he would definitely raise the bet without hesitation, because it means that they usually have chicken ribs in their hands, or even failed to steal the chicken Bad cards with low cards, but heavy bets have already been placed on the table.

However, as time went on, Yevgeny seemed to get better at this bad card. As the two talked, Yevgeny even had a smile on his face again. After a while, Yevgeny Fugeni became even more thoughtful and called Wang Youquan over.

A file was opened on Yevgeny's computer, and Yevgeny unplugged the computer's earphones to let the sound come out through the microphone.

When he heard the first word, Wang Youquan became excited—this was Wu Xiaoqing's voice.

"We are all fine now, if you need any tasks, please contact us as soon as possible."

Then came Shen Changwen: "If... the real me can hear this, I hope he can understand that I am not a threat to him... I even want to talk to the real me."

Xu Yan's voice was also there: "Angkor, who do you want me to talk to? The search and rescue team? I just want to ask when I can go back. I want to take two days off to look at the car..."

After listening to the video, Yevgeny spoke to Wang Youquan in Chinese: "Can you tell who they are?"

"Why can't you hear it? Angkor, and Professor Shen and Xu Yanbai... By the way, shouldn't they be on the spaceship, or on the earth? Why listen... Listen to what they said... It seems that they are being imprisoned Like getting up."

Yevgeny originally wanted to explain the details to Wang Youquan, but after searching for the Chinese words he had mastered for a while, he gave up this plan and changed the topic instead: "If I tell you suddenly, you will not be able to return to Earth in the future." Now, what do you think?"

Wang Youquan was so frightened that he trembled all over: "Professor Ye, what happened?"

After speaking, Wang Youquan immediately turned his face and stared at Zhiti's virtual body with vigilant eyes.

Zhiti's Mandarin is far smoother and fluent than Wang Youquan's, and this time it is rare for Wang Youquan to understand: "Don't look at me like that, we are not enemies yet."

Yevgeny waved his hand and continued, "Actually, the recordings just now are not the real Wu Xiaoqing, nor the real Shen Changwen and Xu Yan."

Wang Youquan didn't understand: "Could it be forged? Why forged? Who got these things?"

"The message from the Federation," Yevgeny added, "Although the words are not from Wu Xiaoqing and the others, they can represent what they mean."

Wang Youquan didn't understand.But he wasn't very curious, and he didn't want to understand.Here he is just a listener. If Yevgeny has something to say, he just listens.

"Let's put it this way, there are a few federations... even if they are members of the federation, if they are in danger, they pass us and ask for help from the search and rescue team," Yevgeny said, "but the search and rescue team is not there now, so we need two discuss."

"Discuss what?"

"Discuss whether to help or not."

"Of course it is... um," Wang Youquan reined in, looked at Yevgeny and said, "Professor Ye, you can make your own decision. What's the use of asking me, a rough man...?"

"No, your mind is very delicate. I heard that you used to be a poker player," Yevgeny said. "Generally speaking, a good poker player is always good at deliberating the opponent's cards."

Wang Youquan began to feel embarrassed: "It's just playing around... Gambling is a bad habit."

"Gambling is indeed not very reliable as a means of making money, but if it is only used as a game of mental exercise, it is still valuable. On this issue, you actually have more say than me."

Yevgeny could see that Wang Youquan still didn't understand what was going on, and added: "The problem now is very simple. We need to judge whether these senders are benevolent or malicious."

"Didn't you say they pretended to be Wu Xiaoqing and the others? They must be liars."

"No," Yevgeny said, "They are probably the real Wu Xiaoqing."

Yevgeny was completely confused: "But you just said no."

"It's not Wu Xiaoqing himself, but it is indeed Wu Xiaoqing."

After listening to this sentence, Wang Youquan was stunned, then asked weakly: "Professor, is there something wrong with the translation between us? It's not Wu Xiaoqing himself, but Wu Xiaoqing? Is it true or not?"

"Just take it for granted," Yevgeny said, "but this Wu Xiaoqing is a bit different from the one we've seen...you can think of it as...meeting him for the first time, and now you are the first The first time we meet, you have to help me judge whether he is a good guy or a bad guy."

"...Wu...Angkor probably won't harm us, right?" Wang Youquan became more frightened as he listened, his lips trembling, "Isn't there still a search and rescue team... Is something wrong and we can't go back?"

After speaking, he couldn't help looking at Zhiti again, Zhiti shrugged towards him.

"We're fine, it's Wu Xiaoqing and the others who can't go back."

"Ah!" Wang Youquan was stunned, "Is there something wrong with the spaceship?"

Just to put it bluntly, I heard Yevgeny say that the Federation has declared war on them, and they will fire lasers when they see the spaceship... Now it seems that the spaceship must have been hit. Could this be the distress signal sent by Wu Xiaoqing and the others? ?

"Don't think about it," Yevgeny saw Wang Youquan's face turned pale, and immediately comforted him, "The entire search and rescue team, five people, and the boat, are all fine. Now, you just play a game. It's Wu Xiaoqing and the others. Play this game with you, where they pretend to be bad guys and good guys, and you have to tell from the tone of their voices what role they're playing."

"Then... okay." Wang Youquan took a few deep breaths, sat back in front of the computer, and began to read the news seriously.

After a few minutes, Wang Youquan probably came to a conclusion: "It doesn't look like a bad guy...it's quite normal."

There is nothing wrong with Wu Xiaoqing's attitude, but what Shen Changwen said is a bit strange, the real me... what do you mean?Could it be another fake Shen Changwen who spoke?

As for Xu Yan, Wang Youquan knew Xu Yan the deepest. As soon as he heard him say it, he immediately came to a conclusion: "Xu Yan is definitely fine... What he says is fancy, but he is actually a straight-hearted person."

"That is to say...you don't think there is a big problem with them."

"Yes, it's not a big problem." After Wang Youquan answered, he asked cautiously, "What happened? Can't you tell me?"

"It's still about the last attack, and now there are more accidents. To put it simply, it's Wu Xiaoqing and the others who were detained."

"Detained?" Wang Youquan was surprised, "They passed by again?"

"It's not the original Wu Xiaoqing...Let's put it this way, now there is an extra Wu Xiaoqing here, who is almost exactly the same as the real Wu Xiaoqing."

Wang Youquan couldn't close his mouth with his mouth open, listening to Yevgeny continue: "You can call him No. 2 Wu Xiaoqing, the problem now is, we have to determine whether he is No. 2, or maybe No. 12, No. 102 , No. 1002...do you understand what I mean?"

Wang Youquan shook his head.

Wang Youquan shook his head resolutely and violently.
