Alien Hotel

College?

After seeing the message from "Three Thousand Evil Disciples", Yu Sheng was confused for a moment. He felt that the word "college" seemed a bit familiar, and then he remembered what Baili Qing had mentioned by chance when he was talking to him before. Things, as well as some information I accidentally saw in a pile of information when I was fiddling with the functions of my mobile phone, I finally got the term right.

According to the information, it is an organization located outside the junction, with its headquarters on a distant planet called "Terra". The academy specializes in knowledge inheritance, archaeological discoveries, technology research and development, and fighting against those who threaten the sanity of mortals. Ancient and weird, it seems to be essentially a "university", a very large "university", and most of its expatriate personnel have the title of "professor"...

If it is such an academic organization that likes to study strange objects, it is reasonable to be interested in the strange metal devices found by students.

But there is a problem. The academy is not as easy to contact as other "extraterritorial organizations" - they basically only communicate with other organizations at the official level. They are very mysterious in private. Yu Sheng, who is new to the industry, can't even " How can a newcomer who doesn't even know a few "colleagues" find "professors" in the college?

Yu Sheng frowned, hesitated for a moment and then replied a message to "Three Thousand Evil Disciples": "How should I contact the Academy?" Do you have channels there? "However, this time, he waited for a long time without waiting for a new reply from "Three Thousand Evil Disciples". The other party seemed to have gone offline after sending the last message.

"At least I have an extra idea." After waiting for a long time, Yu Sheng could only put away the phone with regret, then picked up the dark metal device and looked at it carefully over and over again.

He found the strange inscriptions mentioned by "Three Thousand Evil Disciples" on the surface of the device - he hadn't even noticed it when taking pictures before, but he didn't expect to be discovered by attentive "netizens".

It looks like some kind of writing, which has been somewhat worn, but because it is deeply engraved on it, it can still be seen, but I am unfamiliar with it and cannot understand its content, and I have never seen such twists and turns. , a peculiar font composed of a large number of arcs.

At this moment, Yu Sheng suddenly felt his phone vibrate again. Is there any reply? !

He quickly took out his phone, only to find that it was not "Three Thousand Evil Disciples" who had left a new message, but the profile picture of Little Red Riding Hood in the private message was pulsing.

When I clicked on it, the other party sent me a sentence: "I saw the photos and messages you sent - couldn't you have picked up those things from your own home?!" "Yes." Yu Sheng was very calm, "But I was afraid of scaring others, so I didn't say this."

"Fortunately, you didn't say that and took care of normal people's views. By the way, how did you pick it up? No. 66 Wutong Road is your 'territory'. Will there be something in that house that you don't even recognize?"

"There are a lot of evil things in this house," Yu Sheng sighed while typing, "I picked up Irene from the room. There are always messy things popping up."

The little doll was scratching his head to watch the fun. At this time, he immediately hit Yusheng's arm with a headbutt: "Why are you dragging me so hard! And what do you mean by messy things - am I a mess?"

Yu Sheng made a few random strokes on Irene's head: "I just said this to deepen the theme and strengthen the description..."

Then he roughly described the process of picking up the metal device in a private message to Little Red Riding Hood, and at the end he didn't forget to ask: "Have you seen anything similar?"

"It's normal for man-made objects to appear in foreign lands, but it's weird for 'foreign' man-made objects to appear in a foreign land. Of course, it's not yet certain whether that thing really came from 'outside' or not. It is part of No. 66 Wutong Road, but you haven't noticed it. After all, I don't know the situation of you and your house. ," Little Red Riding Hood sent another bunch of messages, "As for that metal device, I've never seen it, but I suggest you stop asking around in the border communications. On the one hand, there is too little reliable information you can provide. I can’t find out anything. On the other hand, there are everyone in the border communication. Don’t be fooled by unreliable people.”

After a while, another new message came from Little Red Riding Hood: "You can keep it for now. If someone who likes to collect rare objects shows up later, the thing might be sold for a good price. You can also buy it here." Observe for a while to see if similar new things will 'fall' out again. This thing looks like a part, maybe there are other structures...

Yu Sheng was stunned when he saw the message from the other party, and then quickly edited a message: "Can this kind of crap be sold for money?!"

Little Red Riding Hood's message was obviously delayed for a while: "...There are always collectors who are interested in all kinds of strange things, especially those brought from foreign lands but not inherently dangerous. It's fine, as long as you can prove that it is indeed an 'exotic recyclable'. "

"Ah, how can you prove this? Is there anyone who specializes in this kind of identification?"

"The Secret Service has appraisal qualifications, and large organizations such as the 'Academy', 'Bamosa Hermits' or 'Oddities/Antiquities Association' also have appraisal experts in this area, and the certificates they issue have high credibility... You are missing Money? "

Yu Sheng hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the fox girl who had just taken out another chicken leg from her tail to gnaw on.

He was a little embarrassed as he typed: "You know, I am raising two people now, and Huli has a very big appetite... My personal work has encountered a little bit of a 'bottleneck period'. "

The main reason for the bottleneck period was that I suddenly discovered that my fans had cultivated extremely outrageous XP in my works, which caused me to have serious self-doubts about my creative direction and even my personal abilities.

Little Red Riding Hood's message was answered very quickly. She was not curious about what Yu Sheng's "personal work" was: "Then you can try to ask the Secret Service to give you an identification certificate. Anyway, they will definitely believe that you found this thing from a foreign land. - Unless they don’t admit that No. 66 Wutong Road is a foreign land.”

There was a smile on Yu Sheng's face, thinking that Hu Li's food expenses and Irene's new TV were all available at once, but at this moment, he suddenly felt something in his heart. An extremely bold, extremely creative, extremely tempting and practical idea suddenly popped into his mind.

This idea glowed with golden light - even his eyes burst out with a strange brilliance: "Wait a minute, is it possible to do this kind of appraisal on anything that is brought out from a foreign land and is not harmful?! "

It took nearly half a minute for Little Red Riding Hood to send back an "Huh?"

Then, before Yu Sheng started typing again, she quickly sent a sentence: "Wait, I think I guess what you are going to do! Do you want to..." Yu Sheng glanced around the living room.

Look where it's worth.

Even the moldy and warped wallpaper in the corners seemed to be plated with gold...

But the next second his cell phone vibrated continuously, and Little Red Riding Hood sent a series of messages: "Collectors have standards for collecting things, right? At least it has to look like a rare thing with a story! No matter how bad it is, it won't help others. You can't carry two plastic slippers, old newspapers, drinks bottles and the like when you go out to brag, right? How did you come up with that?"

Yu Sheng was stunned by this series of news. He seemed to be able to directly feel the huge shock and amazement of a high school girl from every word. At the same time, at the edge of another old town in Boundary City, Little Red Riding Hood, who was lying in the room after sending the message, was still staring at the phone in a daze, unable to regain consciousness for a long time. Her face was indeed filled with shock and wonder.

"Are you still not sleeping?" A young female voice came from above, and then a face appeared on the edge of the upper bunk - it was a person with long black hair who looked one or two years younger than Little Red Riding Hood. Girl, she glanced at the mobile phone in Little Red Riding Hood's hand and recognized the interface on the screen, "Border Communications - what's new? Come to live

Already?"

"No, I was chatting with someone and was very shocked." Little Red Riding Hood said casually.

"Is there anything else that can shock you? Someone posted a picture on a public message board and got away with it?" Little Red Riding Hood said without raising her head: "There is an entity who wants to sell off his property and make a fortune."

The girl on the upper bunk instantly slipped her elbows and fell off the edge of the bed without holding on to it - but fortunately, as soon as she fell halfway, she wrapped her hair around the brackets on both sides of the iron frame bed, like a midnight wraith. Hanging next to Little Red Riding Hood's bed, he said while swinging: "Is this some new horror thread?"

"Long hair, can you stop talking to me in such a scary state?" Little Red Riding Hood couldn't help but cast a blank look at the "roommate" hanging on the bunk bed. At this late night, a girl wearing a white nightgown hung her hair on the bunk bed. People are wandering around in the dormitory, I'm afraid they'll scare anyone who comes to visit. "And I'm not joking, let's discuss it seriously. If there is an alien world in which an entity similar to humans lives. Not only can this entity escape at will, but it also has a legal identity in the human world, then he Is it possible to..."

The girl hanging on the bed thought about it seriously and looked shocked: "I know, the one you came into contact with recently... is broken! He really got a bug!"
