Chapter 731 Message from afar

“Hello, Mr. Duanmu, I’m very sorry to bother you.”

"Uh, you're welcome, Miss Charlie...what's the reason you came to see me this time?"

 “If you’re not too busy, how about having afternoon tea together?”

 “It doesn’t matter...”

　　Seeing the blond girl in front of him skillfully taking out various tea snacks and sandwiches from the basket, Duanmu Huai also looked confused. To be honest, he had no idea what Charlie was thinking at all.

After Mary brought her two friends to the trial court for a tour, Charlie often came to Duanmuhuai again and again. At first, Duanmuhuai thought she had something to ask him for help, but it turned out that this He only came here every three days with some snacks and tea, saying it was to thank Duanmu Huai for taking care of Mary.

It was not easy for Duanmu Huai to drive her away. Besides, it was just eating and drinking, which was not a big deal, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

By the way, Ashelika also hopes to work in the Tribunal. Of course, she has no interest in going out on adventures like Mary. Ashelika specializes in mathematics at the Master's College and is a genius student in the mathematics department. To be honest, Duanmu Huai is not interested in going out on adventures like Mary. Her arrival is quite welcome. Although basic science does not seem to be of much use on the surface, in fact it is very useful. For example, many scientific researches require the use of calculation formulas and models, which most people cannot understand. Although Ashelika does not understand issues in other scientific research fields, if it is just mathematical calculation formulas, at least she can give them One of your answers is whether this thing is mathematically feasible.

In fact, Ashelica and Sydney are currently fighting fiercely. The overall technological level of Ashelica's world is lower than that of Sydney's world. Many mathematical conjectures are just conjectures in Ashelica's world. But in Sydney's world, it has become a theorem. After reading several books on this subject, Ashelika could hardly walk in Xueli's laboratory.

 I heard from Xue Li that Ashelica plans to go to her world for further study after the end of this semester... Well, Duanmu Huai doesn't object.

But Charlie... To be honest, Duanmuhuai doesn't think she has any special use in the Tribunal. Like Mary, Charlie is a student in the Literature Department, but she is not majoring in ancient literature and language studies like Mary. Philosophy and history majors seem very useless in Duanmuhuai... To be honest, can you find a job after graduating from this thing? Should I just become a librarian?

But Xia Li seemed to know it very well, so she never said that she would take up a position in the Tribunal. She would just come often to see how Aselika and Mary were doing, and bring some desserts and food to Duan Muhuai.

From Duanmuhuai’s point of view, this is not a big deal.

 “Please try this, this is a waffle made by me.”

 “Hmm...it tastes good.”

 “As long as you like it, there is also black tea here...”

Duanmuhuai and Ojisi were sitting on the balcony, looking at the scenery below and enjoying the refreshments brought by Charlie. However, in the shadows behind the pillars of the corridor in the distance, several petite figures were hiding there, secretly observing. watching this scene.

“Well, I think there must be something wrong with that Miss Charlie.”

An frowned, crossed her arms, and nodded carefully.

“It seems like what Gulea said, I suspect she is attracted to Mr. Knight!”

 “Huh? No way……”

Mary's expression was a bit complicated, and she even disagreed with An's guess.

“I remember that Charlie didn’t like Mr. Duanmu very much before…”

Mary remembered that before coming to the trial court, she had discussed Duanmuhuai with Charlie and the others several times. Charlie also had a sharp attitude towards Duanmuhuai, as if she was afraid that she would be deceived.

“But look at how she looks now, if she doesn’t have thoughts about Mr. Knight, why would she invite Mr. Knight for afternoon tea?”

 Settling down and analyzing with complacency.

"I know that there are many noble girls in Manalia who like to use this method to get close to their loved ones. Even the married young women like to use this as an excuse to date their lovers! So it must be That's right! Don't you have such a custom over there? Generally speaking, you won't have afternoon tea with men unless you have some ideas!"

 “Uh…that’s right…”

Facing Ann's question, Mary nodded. In her world, afternoon tea was generally a place for women to communicate and increase feelings. For example, Mary used to go to nearby places with Charlie and Ashelika in their spare time. Have afternoon tea in the restaurant and chat about interesting things in school.

Of course, men will not be invited to this kind of party, it is a gathering between girls. And when Ashelika and her fiancé Howard had afternoon tea, Charlie and Mary wouldn't join them.

“But Miss Ogis is here, I think it should be fine.”

Gu Leiya said with some embarrassment - strictly speaking, she was the culprit. Who told her to talk about the fact that Charlie often came to Duanmuhuai when drinking tea with An, which aroused An's interest. , and then she and Mary were pulled over.

"Although I say that, we haven't done anything like inviting Mr. Knight to afternoon tea yet."

“Hey? Haven’t you two invited Mr. Duanmu to have afternoon tea?”

Hearing An's answer, Mary was shocked. Aren't these two Duanmu Huai's fiancées? Generally speaking, this is how unmarried couples should increase their relationship - at least that's what Ashelika and her fiancé Howard did.

“Do you think Mr. Knight is the kind of person who enjoys the atmosphere of afternoon tea and then uses sweet words to make girls happy?”

"Well…………"

I have to say that Mary really had nothing to say to An’s inquiry for a while. In fact, even now, Duanmu Huai is not at all like the afternoon tea participant she imagined. Generally speaking, afternoon tea is mainly about chatting and drinking tea. The desserts are almost just embellishments and are mainly used to communicate feelings. .

But this man really ate his afternoon tea as lunch. Looking at him with a sandwich in his left hand, a waffle in his right hand, and a cup of black tea... Mary really had nothing to say. To be honest, it is very rude and rude to do this kind of thing in this kind of event, but looking at Xia Li, she doesn't seem to care, she just smiles like a maid and pours water for Duanmu Huai... Could it be that Xia Li Li really likes Mr. Duanmu? No reason? They haven't met each other a few times, and Mr. Duanmu doesn't seem to have any special thoughts about Charlie...

Thinking of this, Mary felt a little unexplained depression deep in her heart, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

But fortunately, at this moment, someone appeared and interrupted the afternoon tea party.

 “Ah, Lord Knight!”

Lorena ran in, but there wasn't a drop of sweat on her forehead.

“Miss Lumière, please go to the command room. She seems to have discovered something! It’s about the evil god!”

"oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmuhuai immediately stuffed the waffles in his mouth into his mouth, and then stood up.

 “I’ll go right away.”

Arriving at the command room, Ecote, Lumière and her partner Eclair had been waiting for a long time, but Duanmuhuai just glanced at it and immediately asked a question.

"what's the situation?"

 “That’s right, Mr. Inquisitor.”

 Faced with Duanmu Huai's question, Lumière gave a quick answer.

"Just two hours ago, Miss Ecote's reconnaissance fleet discovered an artificial satellite in an edge galaxy. It was initially detected that this artificial satellite belongs to a human civilization that we have not yet contacted. We conducted a test on this satellite. Research and read its information..."

"Any questions?"

Looking at Lumière's complicated expression, Duanmu Huai frowned, but the latter just sighed.

 “You will know it when you listen.”

As he spoke, Lumière took out the terminal and opened the file. Soon, a voice emerged from it.

"Hello, fellow citizens in the universe, we are a civilization from the beautiful star of the Tacosha galaxy. We greet all civilized races who heard the message from this satellite with high respect and friendship, and welcome you to our The beautiful planet is a guest. The beautiful planet is a rich planet. We have freedom and noble civilization standards. I believe we will be able to coexist peacefully with you..."

 “What the **** is this stupid thing?”

After listening to this voice message, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but swear. It's no wonder he wanted to curse. The voice was so disgusting that it made people feel sick. It was as if Lu Zhishen was imitating Hua Xianzi and made Duanmu Huai want to punch him to death.

However, Duanmuhuai also understood why Lumière thought this was related to the evil god. After all, he knew the owner of the voice was definitely not a normal person upon hearing it.

"The satellite does contain coordinates and environmental information about the beautiful star. It is initially judged that it should be a living environment that humans can adapt to... But Mr. Inquisitor, there are really civilizations that are stupid enough to take the initiative to launch their own civilization into the universe. Materials and information?”

“Idiots can be found everywhere, idiots can be seen everywhere, what’s so surprising about this.”

  Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes in response to Lumière’s question.

 “Have you locked the position of the planet?”

 “Already locked.”

"Very good, I'll go and see the situation myself. Maybe that planet has become a plaything of the evil of obsession."

 Among the evil gods Duanmuhuai knows, who would do such disgusting things that make people want to kill them, naturally the only one is the evil one.

According to the coordinates provided by the satellite, Duanmuhuai and his party soon arrived at the planet called Beautiful Star, however...

"everything is normal."

Lumière monitored it carefully and then answered.

"The following obviously belongs to a relatively backward civilization. They haven't even had the ability to travel out of their own planet for interstellar travel. At least here, I can't see any sign of a threat. Their electronic level is very fragile, and their weapons are not powerful. Relatively low, still gunpowder type..."

 “Then there’s nothing we can do.”

Hearing Lumière’s answer, Duanmu Huai touched his chin.

 “Let’s be an invader from outer space.”
