Chapter 448
Chapter 448: Chapter 67: Jask’s Observation Tower (12K Moon Ticket Bonus Chapter) Chapter 448: Chapter 67: Jask’s Observation Tower (12K Moon Ticket Bonus Chapter) Lin Xian cursed VV 37 times in his heart.
With one swift move, he sprang to his feet!
“What happened to the Three Laws of Robotics?”
Isn’t this a violation of the First Law?
To harm his master?
Thank goodness…
He had always been in the habit of wearing pajamas.
Squeak—
The door of the base dormitory slowly opened with inertia.
The light from the hallway first peeked through the crack as a line, then as the crack widened, it became a long strip, a bright rectangle, a shadow of a girl in a nightgown.
“Eh…”
Chu Anqing held the neckline of her nightgown with her right hand, her big eyes blinking rapidly, standing there at a loss.
She, she, she had only wanted to say hello to Senior Lin Xian…
But how could it be!

Senior Lin Xian had directly invited her in for a chat!
And he even opened the door for her!
This…
This, this, this!
“The moonlight seems quite nice tonight.”
Lin Xian tried to shift the topic, thinking they should go out for a walk.
It just wasn’t appropriate for a man and a woman to be chatting in a room late at night, especially not at an Astronaut Training Base!
He glanced towards the window, trying to locate the moon.
But he discovered…
the thick clouds had blanketed the moon completely:
“I mean, the moonlight was good earlier, but unfortunately, it’s now blocked by the clouds.
I don’t know if you noticed.”
Damn it.
The moon wasn’t cooperating with him tonight either.
“I didn’t…”
Chu Anqing reached up to scratch her head and smiled:
“Hehe…
I couldn’t sleep just now, tossing and turning, so I went to the simulator room to study a bit more.
Then, on my way back to the dormitory…
I heard you on the phone inside and thought I’d say hello…”
The air.
Suddenly became a bit awkward.
Standing at the doorway, Chu Anqing released her tightly clenched right hand from the neckline and timidly pointed towards the coffee table inside the dormitory:
“Um…
can I come in?”
Lin Xian felt helpless.
He nodded:
“…Yeah.”
He walked over to the door, pulled it fully open, then switched on the light, gesturing with his hand:
“Please come in.”
“So…
sorry to disturb!”
Chu Anqing, a bit reserved, took small steps in, moving over to the coffee table.
She sat down straight as an arrow, her back rigid.
Bang.
Lin Xian closed the door, turned his head:
“Want something to drink?”
“Water!
𝑛𝗈𝘃𝘨𝗼.co
Just water is fine!” Chu Anqing felt her tone was a bit high and shyly smiled:
“Hehe…
I was feeling a bit thirsty in the training room just now.”
Lin Xian got two cups, poured two glasses of cool boiled water, placed them on the coffee table, and also sat down opposite Chu Anqing.
Silence…
A suffocating silence!
This was a brand-new version Lin Xian had never played before.
Even though he called the shots in the Dream World, and had even played a game of Catch Me If You Can with a bunch of homicidal maniacs in reality, never had he felt so out of his depth…
unsure of what to say or what to do.
Everything seemed inappropriate to say.
Everything felt awkward to do.
It felt like ants were crawling all over him.
He could already imagine, if he were to tell Liu Feng about his psychological state right now, the other would surely scoff with a disdainful smile, a sardonic lift in his eye:
“Have you ever been in love?”
Soon.
It was Chu Anqing who, after tactically sipping half a glass of water, looked up at Lin Xian:
“Lin…
Senior Lin Xian, is the ‘Space-Time Particle’ really that important to you?”
Lin Xian nodded noncommittally:
“You know that Alpha Substance is the Space-Time Particle?”
Chu Anqing nodded:
“Just now in the training room, I ran into Elder Sister Huang Que.
She chatted with me for a bit and took the opportunity to explain the real project and content to me.
But actually, there is not much difference, just a correction of a few terms.
Whether it’s Alpha Substance or Space-Time Particle…
to me, there is no particular concept, they’re the same.”
“Huang Que?”
Lin Xian turned to look at the electronic clock.
The clock’s display still showed VV’s expression 0_0, like a dumbfounded onlooker.
Seemingly detecting that Lin Xian wanted to check the time,
the digits on the electronic clock jumped to 01:22
“At this hour, Huang Que isn’t asleep either?”
“She probably hasn’t slept, and doesn’t plan to,” said Chu Anqing:
“Because Elder Sister Huang Que wasn’t in her pajamas.
She was still in her high-heeled boots and windbreaker, with her earrings on and her makeup done, her hair also neatly up…
It was clear that she did not come to the training room because she couldn’t sleep like me, but because she didn’t intend to sleep at all.”
“She was coming down from the top floor, and I don’t know what she was doing up there.
Then she noticed the light in the training room and came in to chat with me, correcting a few terms from earlier.”
So that’s how it was.
Lin Xian understood.
Huang Que, that woman, was always so unpredictable.
Appearing and disappearing out of thin air, and not sleeping.
But at this point, Lin Xian was too lazy to analyze her further.
Any anomaly that occurred with Huang Que seemed reasonable to Lin Xian.
Even if someone suddenly told him,
Huang Que is an immortal witch!
Doesn’t need sleep!
Eternal life!
He would just respond with a calm “Oh.”
It was normal.
Not a big deal.
On the other hand, if Huang Que ever acted like a normal person, Lin Xian would definitely think she had been possessed.
Telling Chu Anqing about the Space-Time Particle wasn’t a big deal; it was bound to happen sooner or later.
Huang Que had told Lin Xian that as long as he didn’t tell Driver Wei Cheng, it would be okay.
Although Wei Cheng was trustworthy, would surely keep the secret, and had the backing of the state as an official astronaut, the fewer people who knew about the existence of the Space-Time Particle, the better.
As for Gao Yang and Chu Anqing, they would eventually be informed.
“Back then in your lab at East Sea University, I heard you and Teacher Liu Feng mention this term as well.”
