Huang Luqin nodded; she knew her husband was referring to the spaceship carrying their son.
When they brought back Lowe back then, they also brought back the spaceship. Later, they handed the spaceship over to the authorities because they had nowhere to put it and it wouldn't be of much use if they kept it. It might even affect Lowe. Therefore, to cover up Lowe's existence, the authorities only thought that what crash-landed on Earth was a spaceship. No one thought that it carried an infant. Now that infant has grown into an adult.
"That spaceship flew away from the base not long ago."
Mr. Luo took a deep breath and said heavily.
"Has someone infiltrated the base?"
Huang Luqin had already guessed that the spaceship was gone from what her husband said on the phone, but she was more concerned about who had taken the spaceship away.
"No, it's in autopilot mode. Euroman believes that someone is controlling the spaceship, and that person is very likely on Earth right now. Or rather, the person controlling the spaceship is very likely not one person; it could be something else."
Luo's father leaned back in his chair, looking somewhat weak, and finally uttered his last words: "Omen thinks that the owner of the spaceship may have taken it away."
"How is that possible? That spaceship was... Little Wei? You also think Little Wei made it?"
Huang Luqin had barely spoken when she immediately shook her head in denial, "It can't be Xiao Wei. He's only seventeen, and he doesn't even know his own identity yet. How could he possibly retrieve that spaceship?"
Luo Wei was only seventeen years old. Moreover, he did not know his own identity, and it was impossible for him to retrieve the spaceship. Furthermore, remotely controlling a spaceship was not an easy task, and it was impossible for a teenager to do it.
"But who else could be his biological parents besides him?"
Mr. Luo was very reluctant to face this matter, but he had no choice but to. He sighed and said, "We should have told Xiao Wei the truth about his background sooner."
"We agreed to wait until he's an adult before discussing it further."
Huang Luqin looked distressed and conflicted. She didn't want her son to get involved in these troublesome things, but reality made it impossible for him to avoid them.
She frowned, and after a moment said, "What if the person who took the spaceship has nothing to do with Wei? It could be another organization that might have accidentally learned of the spaceship's existence."
"I don't know, but Serena is our child no matter what."
Mr. Luo shook his head, patted his wife on the back, offered a word of comfort, then started the car again, stepped on the gas, and said, "Let's go back first, and wait until the higher-ups have investigated and found out what's going on."
"Ah."
Huang Luqin could only nod, leaning back in her chair with a slight sense of weakness. Her gaze inadvertently fell on the Superman poster hanging on the building outside the window, swaying in the wind like rippling waves. In a daze, the figure on the poster looked unusually familiar.
Nighttime, Old Town Unit
building.
"Xiao Wei, get up quickly and call Xiao Qing out for dinner."
Huang Luqin carried a plate of braised pork and placed it on the nearly full dining table, then called out to Luo Wei, who was fast asleep on the balcony.
"I'm coming."
Luo Wei stretched, in a good mood. He hadn't found any kryptonite in the spaceship they retrieved from the Self-Strengthening Department today. He and Kara had been fully armed, worried that the spaceship might be carrying kryptonite.
Fortunately, after inspecting the spaceship thoroughly, searching every corner and crevice, they found no fragments of kryptonite. Don't blame Lowe for being so meticulous; even a Kryptonian who accidentally inhales kryptonite powder will become weak, let alone a complete piece of kryptonite.
He had to be careful.
"Mom, tomorrow is New Year's Day, why are you making so many dishes tonight?"
Luo Wei called over Green Snake and was immediately puzzled when he saw the table full of dishes. Although his mother was a great cook, she only made so many dishes during holidays. Today was a bit unusual.
"Tomorrow is New Year's Day. Wouldn't it be better to eat well for two days in a row?"
Huang Luqin handed chopsticks to him and Green Snake, a kind smile on her face, and said, "Eat more, don't waste food."
"Uh-huh."
Luo Wei stopped worrying about the issue and started eating. Although sunbathing could replenish energy, the delicious taste of food was something that sunlight could never replace.
At the dining table, under the warm glow of the lamplight, the family was eating. Occasionally, there was the clinking of bowls and chopsticks. Everyone remained silent, and the television volume was turned down to the lowest setting, emitting only the soft voice of a news anchor.
"Xiao Wei, Xiao Qing said you weren't home this afternoon. Where did you go?"
Suddenly, Huang Luqin, who was sitting opposite, spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Luo's father, who was standing to the side, slowed down his grip on the bowl and chopsticks and looked up at Luo Wei.
"Gu Gu."
Green Snake's eyes sparkled as she gulped down her juice and watched the show. She mistakenly thought that Aunt Huang was going to urge Luo Wei to bring the girl home to do bad things.
"I didn't go anywhere, just next door. I helped my new classmate move some furniture and accompanied her for a walk around the neighborhood."
Luo Wei sensed something was wrong, but still gave a normal answer.
"Your new classmate moved next door, how come you never told us?"
Huang Luqin was puzzled.
“I was just about to tell you this tonight. Kara is an international student. She just transferred to our school and is unfamiliar with the place, so she asked me to go with her to buy some daily necessities.”
It's true that Luo Wei went shopping with Kara in the afternoon.
He then asked in confusion, "Mom, what's wrong? You're acting a bit strange today. You suddenly made such a big meal. Are you going on a business trip tomorrow and leaving Xiaoqing and me to spend New Year's Day alone?"
Seeing that her son's expression was normal and he didn't seem to be lying, Huang Luqin breathed a sigh of relief and immediately explained, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just curious if my precious son has been going astray lately. He's been leaving early and coming home late, and he's been staying at girls' houses all the time."
“They just came to China and their parents aren’t around, so I thought I’d help them out.”
Luo Wei smiled and said.
"Xiao Wei, why don't you bring Kara over to our house for dinner tomorrow? It's New Year's Day, so let her experience the Chinese New Year."
Mr. Luo, who hadn't said much until now, suddenly spoke up.
“Okay, Kara will be very happy.”
Without even thinking, Luo Wei agreed immediately.
Dinner ended with a family conversation. Luo Wei volunteered to help clear the table and wash the dishes, and told his parents to go back to their room to rest, as they had just returned from a business trip.
Mr. and Mrs. Luo naturally did not refuse their son's filial piety and returned to their room.
"It shouldn't be Serena Williams; he probably doesn't know about this."
The first thing Huang Luqin said to her husband when she returned to the room.
"Little Wei is still just a child."
Seeing his wife's worried face, Luo's father comforted her, saying, "Don't worry too much. It's just a broken spaceship that flew away. It won't affect Xiao Wei. Go take a shower and get some rest."
"Ah."
Huang Luqin stopped talking about the spaceship and turned to go to the bathroom in the master bedroom.
Sitting on the bed, Luo's father frowned and fell into deep thought, recalling when Luo Wei was young. Luo Wei originally looked like a white European, but later, it seemed that he was influenced by something and gradually evolved into a yellow-skinned person, and his appearance was similar to his own.
Perhaps it's a talent of the Lowe race, after all, they come from a mysterious and vast universe where anything can happen.
just
What made Mr. Luo frown and ponder was that Kara, whom Luo Wei had mentioned at the dinner table earlier that day, seemed to be a European or American.
Chapter 93, Part 92: Revenge (Part 1)
On January 1st, the first day of the new year, Mr. and Mrs. Luo left early in the morning. They were going to visit their colleagues in the morning and would not return until the afternoon. They originally wanted to take Luo Wei with them, but they were refused. The main reason was that Luo Wei did not know the uncles and aunts they were going to meet. He would just sit on the side and listen to the elders chat. It would be better to stay at home.
However, Luo Wei didn't stay at home for long before he was pestered by Green Snake and Kara, who wanted to take them out for a stroll and experience the New Year atmosphere.
This was their first time celebrating the Chinese New Year. Although the Green Snake also celebrated the New Year in ancient times, the New Year in ancient times was very different from the modern New Year. Decorating with lanterns and colorful decorations is an ancient Chinese tradition, but in remote and impoverished areas, there are not many decorations at all, and even New Year activities are rare. The Green Snake lived in the mountains and rarely had any activities during the New Year.
Nowadays, the modern New Year is undoubtedly full of novelty for young girls, and of course, more importantly, the streets will be filled with all kinds of delicious food on New Year's Day.
Luo Wei originally wanted to stay at home, but when he met Qing She's bright and charming eyes, he gave in and decided to take the two women out for a stroll.
However, the old town was no longer deserted during the New Year, as there were more people during the New Year's Day holiday. Many people who went out to work returned to their hometowns to spend the New Year with their elders, making the atmosphere much more lively. There were many stalls set up in the small squares and streets of the old town, with festive red ornaments piled on the shelves.
"Kara, what is your country's New Year like?"
The green snake by the roadside looked curiously at the tall girl with fair skin and blue eyes in front of her. She was very curious about how foreigners celebrated the New Year.
"We don't celebrate the New Year in our area."
Kara explained, glancing around with curiosity in her azure eyes, "Do you Chinese celebrate the Lunar New Year every year?"
"Of course, it's not just China; I think most countries in the world celebrate the Lunar New Year every year."
Listening to his cousin's somewhat silly question, Luo Wei patiently explained that there is no New Year on Krypton.
Furthermore, unlike Earth, Krypton is not divided into several countries. In addition, Krypton's hierarchy is governed by the Codex of Life, which makes the cultural differences among Kryptonians not as great as on Earth. It is precisely because of fewer internal conflicts that Kryptonians have more energy to develop technology and expand their territory, resulting in countless colonies. Unfortunately, most of those colonies cannot be protected by the colonies because they are too far away from the home planet, and the rulers of the home planet simply cannot take care of so many of them.
In fact, if the Kryptonians had been able to preserve their colonies, perhaps the destruction of their home planet Krypton wouldn't have led to their extinction.
It can only be said that the Kryptonians took too big a step and simply couldn't manage so many colonies. They also didn't have a transportation system like Warhammer. Of course, even though Warhammer could connect colonies and nations throughout the entire galaxy, the dynasty still collapsed in the end.
"It's such a pity, there would be so much less fun without the New Year."
Green Snake sighed, feeling sorry for Kara.
"Perhaps small planets have their own advantages; there are fewer worries, and life is less stressful."
Kara remained silent for a long time before muttering, "Krypton is a seemingly perfect civilized society, but the living environment on Krypton in the apocalypse is so oppressive and suffocating that it's hard to breathe."
Green Snake didn't hear clearly; she had already...
Attracted by the old man carrying candied hawthorns on the street, I ran over and begged to buy some.
Rowe, who stayed by Kara's side, patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, saying, "It's all over now."
"Don't worry, I'm just reflecting on the fact that Krypton is something from over a decade ago for me."
Kara pretended to be relaxed, let out a long breath, and then looked at Xiaoqing, who was holding a candied hawthorn, not far away, and said, "I want to eat that too."
"You want some candied hawthorn too?"
Green Snake shook her head, licking the icy red candy coating with her tongue. She bit off three pieces in one go, her cheeks puffing out. She handed the remaining three pieces on the slip of paper to Kara, saying, "Here, I'll eat three. These are for you."
"No need, we'll buy another one."
Luo Wei smiled and said.
"Huh? Xiao Wei, you two can just buy one skewer."
Green Snake's thought process was peculiar; her delicate, porcelain-white face showed surprise, and her mouth gaped slightly. "So you're planning to eat with her?!"
"What are you thinking? I'm not eating."
Luo Wei was speechless. He patted the little girl on the head and was about to take out his money to pay when a commotion arose from the dense crowd in the small square to his right.
