Crossing the Star Railway: The Beginning of the Starry Sky Twins

After a small episode, Pam completed the survey of the planet's surface and finally placed Zhou Xingxing and Qiong near the ruins of a city.

“It’s so desolate here.”

As soon as he landed, Zhou Xingxing looked around.

This place looks like it has been bombed, with broken walls and ruins, a doomsday scene, and no sign of life.

Even the surrounding trees had long since withered, revealing a lifeless gray color.

"Where should we find a carriage?"

Qiong looked around and then asked Zhou Xingxing.

"According to Uncle Yang, in addition to the thieves who come from outside, there is also a kind of rat people on this planet. They may have mutated due to the environment."

"Ratman?"

Qiong's eyes widened. That must be the rat turning into a spirit!

"I don't know either. After all, I haven't seen it with my own eyes. So I assume that a rat as big as a human can stand up and walk?"

Zhou Xingxing thought for a while and gave his own imagination.

"Okay... stop talking, it's creepy."

Qiong couldn't help rubbing his arms.

This shocked Zhou Xingxing a little. Could it be that Qiong is also afraid of mice?

"Let's find a way down. Uncle Yang said that the surface of this planet is uninhabited, but there are many cities scattered inside."

"Underground city? Kind of like the lower district of Beloberg."

"That's probably what it means."

As they talked, they began to look for a way down.

Finally, we found a downward tunnel in a place that looked like the entrance to a subway station.

Since there were no lights in the tunnel, it was dark and silent, with only the sound of the two people's footsteps echoing.

As he was walking, Zhou Xingxing suddenly felt his arm being hugged.

When I turned around, I saw that Qiong had come close to me without me noticing, and she was hugging her arms and looking around vigilantly.

"Are you afraid of the dark?"

"Huh? No, I didn't... It was just too dark, and I was afraid I'd fall if I walked alone!"

"Then pull me and throw us both down, right?"

"Hmm, I'll drag you down with me."

Qiong smiled and nodded proudly, which made Zhou Xingxing shrug his shoulders.

Da da da--

The sound of their footsteps echoed in the tunnel, and Zhou Xingxing vaguely felt a hint of disharmony.

So I walked a few steps, then stopped, and tried to find out where this feeling of disharmony came from.

"what!"

"what!!!!!"

Zhou Xingxing suddenly yelled, and scared Qiong so much that she also screamed.

Qiong was originally hiding next to Zhou Xingxing, and this scream frightened her so much that she hung onto Zhou Xingxing.

"What happened!"

Qiong hung on Zhou Xingxing and asked in an anxious and panicked tone.

"It's okay. I'm just yelling. I think the echo here is quite strong."

Zhou Xingxing said calmly.

"There's something wrong with you!"

Qiong suddenly became so angry that her face turned red with shame. Isn't this just making fun of herself?

So Qiong used a small punch on Zhou Xingxing's chest!

Zhou Xingxing HP-0.

Haha, this is far inferior to Silver Wolf’s small fists.

"Haha, lighten the atmosphere. You look so nervous."

"I'm not nervous at all!"

Qiong argued cunningly, but after such a scare, he did feel a little relieved.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped out, and Qiong felt a lightness around his waist.

Then Qiong subconsciously touched his pocket and was shocked to find that his cell phone was missing.

"There's a thief!"

Qiong realized it immediately and shouted quickly.

Zhou Xingxing stood still. He just felt that there was something discordant in the footsteps. It turned out that someone was following him by using the overlapping footsteps.

But he was just a petty thief, which surprised Zhou Xingxing a little. He thought it was some kind of rat man.

"Shibao, use the electromagnetic circle to trap him!"

Zhou Xingxing calmly pointed forward.

"You're playing with the Ether Front here? You're not allowed to give me orders!"

Shibao rushed out angrily, but an electric current still shot out and entangled the black shadow's body.

The dark shadow fell to the ground immediately, and it was straight for the rest of its life.

"You're not going to electrocute anyone?"

Zhou Xingxing opened his eyes wide, why did they become straight?

"Huh? So weak?"

Shibao's somewhat unconfident tone made Zhou Xingxing roll his eyes.

Don’t get electrocuted. I was planning to stay and ask for directions. It just so happens that this underground passage leads to many places and I don’t know which way to go.

After asking Shibao to turn on the light, Zhou Xingxing and Qiong saw that the person lying on the ground was a child about twelve or thirteen years old.

"Don't...don't kill me!"

The child at the bottom, realizing he couldn't run away, shrank back and shouted with a trembling voice.

Qiong was speechless. Did he look so cruel?

Even though he stole my cell phone, it's not a capital crime.

"How could that be? Do you look that violent, sister? What's your name?"

Qiong squatted down and asked the child with a smile.

"My name is...Pete."

Pete replied timidly.

"Oh, hello, Pete, can you give my phone back to my sister?"

Qiong squatted down, smiled and held out his hand to Pete.

The child was stunned for a moment, then put the phone in Qiong's hand.

"Sister, have you forgiven me?"

Pete was overjoyed; he didn't expect these two people to be so kind.

"Forgive you? Now tell me why you stole my phone, otherwise... choose one of the two sticks."

Qiong put away his phone, changed his previous smile, put on a kind expression, took out a baseball bat from somewhere and weighed it in his hand.

Just now I was afraid that this kid would be desperate or too frightened and smash or drop his phone, but now that the phone is in my hands, I won’t act anymore.

"Two?"

Pete was stunned, then looked at Zhou Xingxing beside him.

I don't know when Zhou Xingxing had already taken out his baseball bat and was leaning against the side watching the show.

"I advise you not to lie. We have an advanced lie detector here."

Zhou Xingxing pointed at Shibao floating in the air and said.

Of course, I just made it up myself, and I don’t know whether Shibao has a lie detector function.

Shibao cooperated and gave Pete a few electric shocks, which made Pete shiver all over.

"No! Brother and sister! I am weak and cannot stand this stimulation!"

Pete begged for mercy.

And Shibao was whispering secretly in Zhou Xingxing's ear.

"The voltage just now would have knocked an ordinary adult unconscious, but this little brat acted like nothing happened. I don't believe it."

"Then you can check and see if he is lying. If he is, I will beat him up. Fortunately, this little brat is good at taking beatings."

"The lie detection module needs to be unlocked separately. The basic version costs 10 credit points/month, and the advanced version costs 30 credit points/month."

Zhou Xingxing's face darkened when he heard this. So, apart from finding things, you need money to do everything, right?

"Tsk, look at you, so stingy, you haven't given me a single cent of credit points yet."

"I'm your sister!"

"I don't have a sister, but you do. Go ahead and fill yours."

"?"

While they were muttering here, Pete had already succumbed to the tyranny of Qiong.

"I'm sorry... I've actually been hungry for three days. I just wanted to get something to sell for food. I really don't have any other ideas."

Peter knelt on the ground and said sincerely.

"What could possibly be in a place like this?"

Qiong asked curiously, this place was like a sewer with connections everywhere, and there was nothing to see except garbage.

"On the ground, there would occasionally be some pirate spaceships that would crash into the sky after conflicts. I made a living by dismantling the spaceship parts and selling them."

After saying that, Pete saw Qiong looking thoughtful, and quickly raised his hand and swore.

This is true, after all, Pam just shot down several ships.

"I really didn't lie. If I did, God would strike me down!"

As soon as Pete finished speaking, he heard Shibao's healthy laughter and the sound of electricity coming from the side.

"Ahahaha, thunder is coming~"

When Pete heard this, his eyes darkened. It turned out that they were all kidding me. So I was going to die anyway.

Snapped!

Zhou Xingxing slapped Shibao on the back of the head, saying that this guy had such a bad temper. Then, regardless of his protests, he forced him into the space backpack and locked him up in a small dark room.

"You said you make a living by reselling spare parts? Then you must know where the city is here, right?"

When I was sleepy, someone gave me a pillow, but I was worried about how to get out of here.

"Yes, I know. Do you two want to go? As compensation, I will lead the way for you."

Seeing Zhou Xingxing say this, Pete didn't know what it meant and quickly spoke.

"Okay, lead the way!"

Qiong nodded. He had long been fed up with this dark, sewer-like environment. Apart from rats, who would want to live here?

Just as I was about to move out, I heard a rustling sound above my head.

"Oh no... it's the Nezumi! Shh..."

Pete's eyes widened with fear, and he quickly gestured to the two of them to keep quiet.

But just as Pete finished his words, several black figures emerged from the big hole in the ceiling.

"squeak!"

With sharp cries, several rats more than half a person's height fell to the ground and surrounded the three people with red eyes.
