I don't want to come up with a funny book title anymore.
Chapter 5, Stop 1: Garbage Planet
"Cough cough cough, that was really exciting." Chu Jiaoyang crawled out of the spacecraft, covered in dust. "Boss is awesome!"
Xie Fengnan dusted himself off in frustration, wondering if he was the chosen one or the cursed one.
Generally speaking, although traveling through space in a spacecraft is riskier than using a spaceship, the problems they encountered along the way were more than what other people would encounter in a year.
They encountered all sorts of problems: circuit malfunctions, fuel supply issues, and parts disappearing mid-flight. They even suspected that Dr. Gao Zhi had deliberately left these problems to trick them, but Xia Xia clearly said there were no issues during the scan.
Fortunately, despite the bumpy journey, we still arrived at our destination. However, during landing, well, another accident occurred, and we almost lost the plane and all our lives.
Fortunately, the three of them were physically strong and capable, otherwise, it would have been quite frustrating to talk about their deaths.
"Is everything alright?" Xie Fengnan asked as usual.
"It's alright, it's alright, Boss's spatial power is protecting us perfectly well." Chu Jiaoyang said with a grin.
Xie Xingmo also shook his head.
Xie Fengnan then began to look around; they must have landed near a pile of garbage.
There were no people around, so it seemed that their landing method had not attracted any attention.
Normally, entering and leaving a planet requires registration and there is a special extradition port. Perhaps because this is a junk planet that no one cares about, there are not so many formalities.
Otherwise, directly classifying them as illegal immigrants would also be troublesome.
"Shall we split up and gather intelligence?" Xie Fengnan glanced at the time. "We'll meet back here in two hours."
"Okay, boss."
"receive."
So the three of them set off in three different directions.
While others might not know, Xie Fengnan was aware that he had a terrible sense of direction.
Well, even if the navigation system marks the destination and recommends a route for him, he will still take a long detour to reach the marked point.
So give yourself more time to avoid being late and causing a bad impression.
After choosing a direction based on his intuition, Xie Fengnan began to drift off, never expecting that it would take him sixteen years to destroy that base.
Sigh, I wonder how my family is doing in this world. Do they look forward to my return, or have they already forgotten me?
As they walked, a child caught Xie Fengnan's attention.
The child was as thin as a chopstick, with a gaunt face, sunken cheeks, and a sallow complexion.
The eye sockets were sunken, the dark circles under the eyes were unusually obvious, and the skin was dry and rough, clinging tightly to the bone, as if it had no moisture at all.
Xie Fengnan had good eyesight, so he also noticed his hands, which were waxy yellow and resembled chicken claws.
The child exuded an aura of weakness and helplessness.
Xie Fengnan stopped and looked around.
"Hey, you haven't paid your protection money enough this month, have you?" Two menacing-looking men said to the child with ill intent.
"Yes...I'm sorry..."
The child flinched, a movement that made him appear even more frail, as if he might collapse at any moment.
"What's the point of saying sorry? Can it be turned into credit points?"
Xie Fengnan originally didn't intend to get involved in this kind of thing. In the past sixteen years, he hadn't grown up like a normal child, and besides, he had the common sense from his previous life reminding him of this.
Moreover, the child's eyes were so obvious that it was hard not to know it was a trap.
But a child's thinness doesn't happen overnight, so it's hard not to feel compassion.
Seeing that Xie Fengnan hadn't made a move, the two men exchanged a subtle glance.
He then pulled the child over to Xie Fengnan and said, "Young master, would you like to buy a slave? The slaves on our trash planet are affordable, useful and inexpensive."
"No, no... don't sell me!" the child struggled incessantly.
"Heh, but you can't pay the protection money. Do you know how difficult it is to survive on a garbage planet..."
"Excuse me for interrupting, but what would you do if I didn't want to pay his protection money or buy him out?" Xie Fengnan wasn't interested in watching their act; he was very busy when he had something to do.
"This..." The two burly men exchanged a glance. They usually put on a show in front of the people they had chosen.
Except for those who genuinely cannot afford it, most people will pay for the child's expenses because human compassion is a very good way to make money.
But to my surprise, it had no effect on this child who still looked quite young.
If he hadn't looked like a rich young master, these two wouldn't have been so polite.
Xie Fengnan didn't actually have anything valuable on him; he was just very clean.
People who rely on garbage dumps for a living would find it hard to maintain such cleanliness; they've only ever seen this level of cleanliness in wealthy neighborhoods.
Moreover, Xie Fengnan's appearance is so striking; his silver-white hair and heterochromatic eyes (one blue and one purple) make him instantly noticeable.
Not to mention her face, which is stunningly beautiful.
They felt that if Xie Fengnan smiled, people would be willing to give their lives for him.
The two men had their reasons for targeting Xie Fengnan; if they could sell such a high-quality item on the black market, the price would be very considerable.
"If you're going to do it, could you hurry? I'm in a rush."
Xie Fengnan glanced at them with a half-smile, noticing the lust in their eyes.
However, the two burly men still showed no intention of making a move, so Xie Fengnan decided to walk around them and continue forward.
In the instant they brushed past each other, the two suddenly launched an attack.
