The Cubs Picked Up Are All Villains - Chapter 14

  For more than two thousand years since the establishment of the Galactic Empire, ancient humans have always been defined as a weak and long overdue race. Even though the empire had been calling for racial equality, discrimination and exclusion were still everywhere.

    For example, for the same job position, they were more willing to hire Bis people or evolutionary people; for the same salary, ancient humans needed to pay more labor; in all walks of life, there were, obviously, many exceptionally good ancient human beings, but everyone said that the ancient human being was not good, the ancient human being has already lost genetically.

    How could ancient humans with such weak strength and inferior genes be better than Bis and evolutionary humans? But actually, who knows the result if they don’t try? It’s not terrible for a person to be denied. What’s terrible is that as time goes by, even oneself agrees with such denial, willingly imprisoned at the bottom of the well, no longer dares to imagine beyond the bottom of the well, the vastness, and magnificence of the sky and fields.

    Luther was accustomed to this kind of negation, but he didn’t think he should be a frog who always squatted at the bottom of the well. A fire was burning in his heart, and it was always urging him to jump out and have a look, jump out of this remote planet to have a look.

    The high-speed shuttle racing was the only way for him to jump out of this well.

    The rewards of the competition are not only star coins but also a spaceship in the inner city to legally travel to Sikkim. The capital star, Sikkim, is a name that is absolutely familiar to the residents of the B3024 junk star, but it is extremely far away, so far away that many people will never be able to take a look at the dark golden magnificent planet.

    “If you really want to race a shuttle, I suggest you remodel the shuttle. Although the shuttle is a gamble, it’s better to live to be recognized than to be ridiculed to death,” Ruan Shiqing said finally. 

    Although Luther’s ideas were a bit extreme, he agreed. If people wanted to jump out of the existing framework and break free from some constraints, they must have the courage to break the boat. He admired Luther’s courage and was willing to add firewood to it to make the flame burn more vigorously.

    On the contrary, Luther was a little stunned. After a long while, he said, “You are the first person to support me. My friends think I am crazy and just imagining it.”

    “The poet Sodergrand once said, ‘All the stars eventually disappear, but they always shine fearlessly.’” Ruan Shiqing showed him the virtual screen of the smart brain, “But, I think you should be fully prepared before proving your fearlessness.” On the virtual screen, there was a budget list. “These are the parts that your shuttle car needs to replace. If you have the budget, I can help you modify it. Although there is no guarantee that you will win, as long as you drive correctly, at least there will be no accidents.”

    A long list was filled with the names of parts that Luther could not understand. He looked down and fell on the final price. “So many accessories, only three thousand stars are needed currency?”

    “Friendship price.” Ruan Shiqing smiled. “But let’s talk about it first, if you win, I will score 20% of the bonus.”

    “Deal.” Luther handed over the last savings to him. “If I can really win, it’s fine to give you 30%.”

    Ruan Shiqing gave him a no-nonsense gesture, “Then I’ll replace the anti-gravity generator for you. Before the start of the race, the shuttle car will be placed there first.”

    Luther nodded, smiling until his teeth were lost. When Ruan Shiqing left, he kept sending people out the door.

    A neighbor heard the conversation between the two, looked at Ruan Shiqing critically, and said in a mocking tone, “Luther, has your second-hand shuttle car not been repaired? Isn’t this what you are looking for? the repairman?”

    Luther frowned and glanced at him, and said in disgust, “You spent a lot of stars on filling your incisors, right?” The neighbor is a Bis, and his beast form is a hyena. Instead, he was more like a ‘weak’ ancient human.

    “I just want to remind you not to be deceived. I really don’t know good people.” The neighbor was reminded of his painful experience of his teeth being broken last time, and he panicked and ran away while covering the teeth that had just been filled.

    Seeing him running away, Luther put away his anger and said to Ruan Shiqing, “Don’t care what he says, he can’t beat me, he always wants to have the upper hand in words.” But he didn’t like to play tricks, things that he can do hands-on will never be a waste of time.

    Ruan Shiqing shook his head and didn’t take it to heart. After saying goodbye to him, he sent the list to 09 and said, “Let’s go to the underground market to buy parts first.”

    A master and a servant are walking on the way to the underground market. The new and delicate golden little robot attracted a lot of curious eyes, and those who knew the goods whispered, “Is this a PL-3 military robot?”

    “I think it’s just an ordinary robot that imitates the shape. If you really want to get a military robot, who would dare to bring it out?”

    “Also…but it can be imitated so realistically, and the technology is quite good.”

    “This level must be at least a first-level mechanic, right?”

    “…”

    09 Listening to the discussion around, proudly straightened his waist, his chin raised slightly, and his heart was madly blowing the master’s rainbow fart. My master’s skills are so awesome, you will come to find him soon!

    It’s a pity that no one can hear his inner cry.

    09 glanced around and felt the loneliness of the treasure hidden in the box that no one appreciated.

    Ruan Shiqing didn’t pay much attention to these discussions. His attention was attracted by a group of soldiers. In recent days, soldiers on patrol can often be seen everywhere in the outer city. This has never happened before.

    When he arrived at the underground market, he casually mentioned the sudden appearance of a patrol of soldiers using the pretext of selecting parts.

    “You saw those guards?” The stall owner excitedly said, “Do you know the auction a while ago?”

    Ruan Shiqing nodded calmly, “Yes, it seems that something was lost at the auction.”

    “That’s right! The finale of the auction was a nine-tailed fox cub.” After that, the cub was lost! It is said that the buyer was a big man in the inner city, and he was very angry. He suspected that someone had sneaked into the warehouse of the auction and stolen the cub of the nine-tailed fox clan. The patrol team in the inner city had been sent to search everywhere for a few days.”

    He spread out his hands gloatingly, “But I didn’t even find a single fox fur.”

    It turned out to be this. Thinking of the little fox that looked like a ball of fire, Ruan Shiqing didn’t know for a while whether he wanted it to be found or not.

      After a while, he felt amused again. No matter if he can find it or not, he can’t do anything about it. Shaking his head, Ruan Shiqing handed over the newly purchased anti-gravity thruster to 09, and then returned to Luther’s home to replace new parts for the shuttle racing car.

    On the other side, at home, Rong Heng lay on the windowsill to bask in the sun.

    Although it was artificial sunlight, the warm feeling was not fake, he squinted his eyes comfortably, and the tail swinging slightly behind him showed his good mood.

    As the heir of the empire, His Royal Highness seldom had such leisure time. When he was a puppy, his mother had begun to teach him strictly, and his life was filled with various lessons; after his mother died, his relationship with his father became more and more alienated. In addition to entering the growing season, he was sent to the Yanjisi region to be stationed, fighting against the Zerg day and night.

    In the past 26 years, there were only a handful of warm times. Instead, he accidentally landed on this remote planet, which made him feel at ease. Without the shackles of the imperial crown prince, he can freely show his emotions. He could also stay away from political struggles and conspiracies, temporarily unload the burden on his shoulders, and gain short-term peace.

    There was a faint sound of water splashing from his side. Rong Heng squinted to look and see that the mermaid was holding his tail to examine it carefully. After a period of treatment, the wounds on his tail have begun to heal, and even thin, soft scales have grown in some places. The newly-born scales reflected tiny blue shimmers in the sunlight, which made the ugly, uneven fishtail a little more pleasing to the eye.

Rong Heng snorted softly. Thinking of the calculating ministers in Sikkim, he felt that this artificial mermaid is not so annoying.

    On the contrary, the little mermaid noticed his gaze, and after finding that he was staring at his fish tail, he hurriedly hid it under the water, his ear fins opened nervously, and his eyes widened and stared at him. The water swayed and the waves cast light and shadow. The two rubber ducks rose and fell with the water, revealing the little mermaid’s uneasy mood.

    Rong Heng noticed that he tried to roll his tail back, trying to hide it. He jumped off the windowsill with a light snort, left the second floor, and went to the first floor.

    Seeing him leave, the little mermaid breathed a sigh of relief, his ear fins drooped listlessly, and the fishtail, which had not yet grown full scales, swayed gently underwater.

    Rong Heng was going to visit the workshop of the ancient human boy.

    He originally thought that the other party was a smart young man, but he did not expect that he would be able to repair the PL-3. Although many parts have been simplified, it is also very shocking on such a remote planet. What’s more, he knew that the boy didn’t even speak Interstellar at the beginning and even the first books were found by him. No one knows better than him the rapid growth of this young man. He was rarely curious.

    He walked to the door of the workshop, and was about to go in, but heard the sound of the other side. The house was being burglarized?

    Rong Heng took a step, turned the direction lightly, and checked the source of the sound. The place where the sound is made in the kitchen.

    In this place, the kitchen is mostly useless, but just a decoration, but, he knew that Ruan Shiqing had purchased a batch of nutrients and stored them in the refrigerator.

    He restrained his breath and hid at the door of the kitchen. The little thief in the kitchen didn’t notice his presence. Next to the door of the refrigerator, a few crimson fox tails swayed, then, a thin body emerged holding several tubes of nutritional supplements in his arms. 

    It was a 5- or 6-year-old human-like little girl. The fox ears on top of her head and the fox tails behind her were not retracted. A pair of cold silver eyes hid the familiar rebelliousness and agility.

    The author has something to say: 

    Rong cub: It is useless to hide, I have seen it all |ω·)

    Fish cub: ! ! (Yuyu is angry)
