Nonhuman Evolution Guide

Ripley spends the next few hours tuning the gauges while the scientists go about their business.Kaur showed up once, looking busier than Wieland, with a cable plugged into the data port on his arm.

Zhang Lin sighed, next to him stood Penny who was eating popcorn.Penny, who was forced to wear a dusty overalls, stared at Ripley curiously for a while, then turned to Zhang Lin, "I heard that you are... the alien who took me hostage before?"

Zhang Lin: "..."

Ripley glanced at him, "Have you ever done something like this before?"

"Not only." Zhang Lin replied sincerely, "I almost killed your girlfriend."

"Wow." Penny said leisurely beside her.

Ripley showed that half-smile expression again, "It's okay, I killed 300-year-old aliens."

Zhang Lin: "..."

Petunia handed over the popcorn tray sympathetically, "Would you like some?"

Zhang Lin picked up a popcorn and chewed it angrily.

Penny shrugged and shoved the whole plate over, "I'm going to get some quick-frozen food from the refrigerator, you'd better eat something before you leave. Wait, I'll hear Sheldon's comments on this unhealthy lifestyle later. What a long speech."

Zhang Lin picked up popcorn with a plate in his arms, "You are also someone who worked in a cheesecake factory..."

"Shut up," Penny said.

Zhang Lin ate the popcorn silently for a while, then glanced at Ripley who was carefully adjusting the instrument beside him.In fact, his memory of the Alien series of movies is not very deep. The nerds and Wieland also discussed why they became characters in film and television works. The conclusion is that since there is a world that can mutate the species of wizards, and they all With the genes of princes, it is not surprising that there are occasionally a few supernatural beings who can "see" the parallel universe.What's more, there are not a few such people in film and television works. For example, in "4400", there appeared a director who specialized in filming secrets. Maybe it was the screenwriter's self-expression in film and television dramas.

Looking at Ripley next to him, Zhang Lin suddenly asked what he was thinking in his mind: "Do you remember what you were like before?"

Ripley paused. "I was... a pilot."

Zhang Lin didn't speak, and Ripley glanced at him, "But to be honest, I don't remember very well. I once had a daughter, but when I was attacked by aliens for the first time, I drifted in space for 50 years and returned After Earth, she was dead. Then I saved a little girl, but when I woke up, people told me that there was an accident in her escape pod, and she died too. But I don’t remember their names.”

Listening to Ripley's words, Zhang Lin suddenly realized that he hadn't picked popcorn from the plate for a long time, and subconsciously picked one up and put it in his mouth as if to cover up.

"I don't remember," Ripley said, "I just remember that I was a pilot lieutenant, and I was kind of good with electro-mechanics . . . but I couldn't figure them out, and I wasn't myself anymore."

Zhang Lin opened his mouth, and finally spoke under Ripley's gaze: "So... what if you remember everything?"

Ripley stared at him for a long time, then shook his head, "I don't know, why don't you ask yourself."

Zhang Lin looked down at the popcorn on the plate, and said softly after a while, "I don't know either."

Ripley dropped the tool in his hand and stood up directly, "Don't think so much-whether you're talking about yourself, or your alien. In any case, you can't go back, and he-you Didn't you come up with a new method?"

Zhang Lin shrugged, "I know, I just...I want to know."

Ripley tilted his head, and raised one corner of his mouth after a while, "Then it's very simple, you are who you are now. People will change, and the self ten years ago will make people feel strange, whether it is you-it doesn't matter at all. "

Zhang Lin opened his mouth slightly, as if he was shocked by this thought.But it’s not wrong to think about it carefully. A lot of people’s thinking is controlled by physiology. As time goes by, people may not even know themselves.

"So they don't care," Zhang Lin muttered to himself, "so they, the vassals, don't care about the psychological impact of changing between the two forms. They have lived too long, and the former selves are the A real...stranger. The impact of the alien state is not as good as time..."

Ripley did not interrupt Zhang Lin, nor tried to tinker with the pile of instruments, but sat beside him with his knees. "Where are you going when it's all over?"

Zhang Lin scratched his messy hair, "A certain planet in the Reticulum constellation...maybe. There is a lot of silicon there, and my aliens will like it. Unfortunately, there is no oxygen. Maybe I can ask Wieland to have an atmosphere. machine."

"No, what I'm asking," Ripley looked at him deeply, "is the reticule of which world?"

Zhang Lin couldn't answer.

"Reticulum," Ripley smacked his lips, "I really don't like this constellation."

Ten minutes later, Penny turned back to break the silence, "Sheldon is already giving a speech, and everyone is taking advantage of this time to do some preparatory procedures, and we can leave after eating—oh, of course Wait until your alien handsome guy wakes up."

Zhang Lin stood up, "Where is the restaurant - are you planning to go too?"

"Oh, me?" Penny said, "I'm not going, Leonard seems uneasy about British men."

"How is that possible?" Raj shrugged, who followed behind, "That's an English man. We should be the ones who are in danger. Anyway, it can't be Petunia. We're going to meet a gay man."

Zhang Lin: "..."

"Come on, not all British people are gay." Leonard walked over helplessly, "Sheldon is almost finished speaking, you can go back."

"Obviously, Leonard is worried about you, Penny." Raj concluded seriously.

"What, what am I worried about?" Leonard looked blank.

"Don't worry Penny's going off with a Brit," Raj said.

"Oh, of course... that's not the case." Leonard subconsciously said half of it, and quickly changed his words, "I didn't worry about this, Penny, how could this be possible, the British are all gay!"

Wieland, who just appeared behind the crowd: "..."

"Sir, the statistics show it's possible," David said beside him.

Wieland ignored the artificial intelligence who made up a knife, and said with a straight face and a blunt tone, "Sheldon is done talking, hurry up."

Raj whispered in Leonard's ear, "Look, he didn't argue."

Wieland: "..."

Seeing that Wieland was about to lift the table, Zhang Lin hurriedly interjected, "Have you finished all the preparations?"

"Yeah," Wieland said angrily, "By the time you guys were talking about having sex and fishing around, it was already done."

"Oh," Shelton at the dining table was obviously very happy to see a group of people coming in from outside, "You guys are going to have sex? It's fast, that's good, we can eat now."

Howard next to him rolled his eyes, "You know Sheldon, this is the first time I've heard that 'fast' is a good thing."

Others sat down at the dining table one after another. Wieland reached out and pulled a large screen from the side, which showed the surveillance video of the room where the big blue bottle was located, and the face hugger was still lying on his face.The alien's chest rose and fell slightly, proving that his condition was normal.

Wieland looked as usual: "Pay attention to time control—I mean when you are eating."

David next to him zoomed in on the contents of the big blue bottle's face.

Everyone: "..."

"Are you sure we have to stare at that alien bug for dinner?" Petunia's spoon froze on the plate.

"Strictly speaking, it's not a bug, it's your friend Zhang's biological daughter." Wieland said without changing his expression, "Of course, maybe their race doesn't like to call it that."

"Yes, great insight." Zhang Lin emphasized to Wieland, "Otherwise I would have to call the person next to me my grandmother."

All the nerds sprayed it on their plates.

"I don't really mind." Ripley scooped himself a spoonful of eggs, then glanced back. "What about you?"

Kaur: "..."

All eyes fell on Kaul behind, the robot girl unplugged the data cable on her arm, and said to Wieland, "The data has been fully synchronized, you can now view all the data on the Origo. "

"Well," Ripley replied for Wieland, before continuing to stare at his robot girlfriend, "so—what about you?"

Of course Kaul couldn't blush, but her state was obviously so embarrassing that she was about to get into the cracks in the ground. "I'll go to the computer room to have a look."

Just as Zhang Lin opened his mouth to say something, the alarm light on the monitoring screen next to him suddenly lit up, and then piercing screams filled the entire room, and even the conversation between people could not be heard.

Zhang Linteng stood up abruptly, because he saw the man on the screen move.
