The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 195 Strange

"This child seems to know how to swim quite well..." Teacher Han said with some surprise.

Stark shook his head; he really didn't know. He had known Jiang Hui for many years, since she was born, but the two of them hadn't actually spent much time together, and hadn't even met much before.

While Jiang Hui was always rambling on, what he talked about were mostly irrelevant things, mostly things that happened when he was a child. After all, the other woman had been stationed away from home for many years, just like him, so how could she have had so much time to spend with her daughter? To be honest, his understanding of Jiang Hui was actually quite limited, only based on the few days he communicated with her via computer each month.

So this was the first time Stark had ever known that Kang Hui could swim.

Interstellar swimming is a particularly niche sport.

There are countless planets in the cosmos, each with its own unique ecosystem, resulting in varying conditions for their water bodies. Furthermore, not every planet's water is compatible with humans; some water bodies contain components that could be fatal to humans.

Among these bodies of water, few are suitable for human swimming; the water imprinted in the mother planet's water cycle is the best. Its structure and density are suitable, and its composition is harmless. It truly deserves to be called the origin of human life.

However, humanity's home planet no longer exists. Apart from the genetic material and non-biological specimens carried by humans during their migration, nothing else was left behind. The original aquatic species carried by the first generation has also been completely consumed, with only a small amount remaining in the Imperial Capital Gene Bank.

Therefore, all existing water bodies on the mother planet are simulated water, and due to the complexity of the process and the cost, they are extremely expensive, usually only available as a rare ingredient in certain high-end restaurants. They are truly comparable to gold and jade.

Other bodies of water suitable for swimming might be more expensive to build than the simulated water on the home planet, so they are even less likely to be considered.

To learn to swim, you first need to maintain a swimming pool filled with simulated water, and then find someone who knows how to swim to teach you. You can imagine how difficult that is.

A specialized sport that is so expensive that even if you learn it, you might not be able to use it, is naturally an extremely niche sport. Even scions of wealthy families rarely choose to learn it.

I never expected this child to learn to swim. Is it a hobby? Now it's really come in handy for her, and she's teaching quite well.

"Sigh, so much mimicry water... I wonder if it's been recycled. That's all money. Professor Dennis's style is as extravagant as ever." Zapp's focus was clearly different from others. He was born into a poor family on the border, and even after joining the military at a young age and making some achievements, he did not change his frugal style. He immediately noticed this.

Captain Lin Qi looked again and again, and finally couldn't help but ask in surprise, "That looks like...Young Master Zhou?" There are countless students with the surname Zhou in the school, but there is only one that they would call out like that.

However, the other party was contrary to everyone's expectations. When he enrolled, he appeared ordinary and even a little shy, which was completely different from his famous father. Those in the know could not say whether they were disappointed or something else.

In retrospect, they made their decision too early. Their ability to transmit spiritual power, their qualities displayed during the water disaster, and their current choice to overcome their fear of water in such a short time... cannot be considered ordinary or mediocre.

"And the other kid... yeah, yeah... no wonder he looks unfamiliar. Those guys in the command department are always so secretive, and their training is always so shrouded in mystery. Today, I've finally seen one."

The instructors' panel continued their discussion, gradually entering a strange atmosphere. Stark was always a man of few words, and few dared to challenge his cold, unyielding demeanor. If Nielch were present, he might have been able to exchange a few words, but Nielch wasn't truly free; he had only made a brief visit before being recalled to the hospital less than two weeks later.

He watched the group of people struggling in the video, then looked at the leaderboard on the big screen, which was now ranking people up and down again, and frowned, seemingly lost in thought.

—————————————As expected, the process of teaching Huan Xian was not smooth, just as she had thought, the other party had a deep fear of water.

At first, Jiang Hui thought it was probably because of the recent flood or some unknown fear, but after a while, she realized that the man might not be afraid of that at all. He was afraid of water itself.

He was so afraid that even the sight of rippling water made his pupils tremble violently, making it impossible to force such a person to confront something that terrified him so much.

Jiang Hui hesitated, wondering if she should just let it go like this? She suggested that the other party wait here for a while... or that they wait here and see if the water could go down on its own.

But if they keep doing this, everyone will die in the end, because the energy reserves of these two simulated bras are almost depleted, and if they continue like this, they will probably be eliminated soon.

Before she could come up with a suitable explanation, the other party refused and cut her off.

“Try again,” he insisted, and then Jiang Hui saw him stuff something into his ears and cover his eyes with a three-finger-wide strip of tape.

I won't listen, I won't look.

What kind of preparation is this? Jiang Hui wondered... Could it be that if he couldn't hear or see, he wouldn't be able to feel the water? She began to realize that her previous idea that the other person was afraid of water was actually inaccurate. But she didn't know what the other person's situation was, so she could only let it be.

Still not working...

Jiang Hui looked at the person who had become stiff as soon as he entered the water and was about to pull him up to get him out completely.

Suddenly, the other person grabbed her arm, and Jiang Hui was startled, realizing she had been careless. If the other person panicked and struggled wildly while holding her, she would definitely be dragged away in the end.

He clearly remembered everything when he was teaching Zhou Xiuwen, but he forgot it now.

The girl was secretly annoyed and wanted to push the person's hand away. She then decided to press the retractable rope to take the person back to the shelf.

Unexpectedly, the other person's hand gripped her firmly without any effort or movement. The veins on the back of their hand were almost bulging out, yet the grip was firm and seemingly loose. This was contradictory—it didn't seem like the behavior of someone who couldn't swim.

Ok?
"Don't move, let me catch my breath," the other person said.

Jiang Hui looked down, but could only see his face down, his head slightly raised, his soft and wispy hair hanging down and covering his entire face. Tape was stuck to the back of his head along his temples, making his hair messy and making it impossible to see his expression.

Is it all better? It's really floating...

She was very surprised, but the other party did not respond further. Apart from remaining stiff, their entire demeanor seemed to show no signs of fear.
