Lugang District, Lugang Town.

The seven-year-old Lu Qiao looked at her mother who was walking out of the utility room and smiled and shouted, "Rona!"

Of course, Rona is not her mother's name, but an animal in the cardboard box in her mother's arms.

"Mom, I, this time I failed to cultivate Rona again!" Mom sighed and put down the cardboard box at the gate.

Lu Qiao rushed over and bent down to look at the nest of Rona in the box.

The nest made of weeds was full of Ronas. Among the piles of Ronas, there were two big ones, one blue and one red, and the rest were small pink and purple cubs.

"Are they also mom and dad?" Lu Qiao asked at the big Rona.

Mom smiled and touched Lu Qiao's head: "Yes, I gave birth to a small litter of Rona."

Rona, a new creature that appeared after the destruction of the earth.

It seems to be a variant of slime or slug after the end of the world, whether it is a slug or a slime, it is the name given to it by the Earthlings.

Rona of different colors can give birth to each other, and the more unique the color the breeding Rona, the higher the value.

The monochrome Rona is worth between fifty and three hundred utos, while the mixed color Rona has her own unique title and is worth more than thousands of utos.

At the animal exhibition held in Lugang six months ago, a purple, white and blue color called dreamy violet was auctioned for a sky-high price of 13,000 utopia.

Lu Qiao's mother was also a trap at that time, fantasizing that she could cultivate the seven-colored Rona in the future to achieve financial freedom.

After watching the mother for a month, she checked all the details of her cultivation.

Start trying to use the simplest red and blue mixed two-color, hoping to subsidize your household income. After you get rich, you will try to mix three or even four-color. Unfortunately, the first wave of red and blue only has purebred purple and pink, and the price is definitely not high.

"Lu Qiao, wait at home! I'll send these to the pet store and come back soon." My mother planned to go out and sell them to the pet store owner to stop the loss, and then buy a batch again and start over.

My mother also knows one thing, the instability of cultivation, even if two offspring of two colors may not be able to breed two colors. The cultivation of mixed colors is not perfect, but my mother always has a sixth sense, thinking that the next wave of mixed doubles can be mixed, and even the colored varieties with gene mutations will appear in her home.

Lu Qiao bent down and picked up the thinnest blue Rona from the box and asked, "Mom, can you keep it?"

Blue and red are the largest and cheapest varieties, and Luqiao chose the smallest blue one. When it was confirmed that it was also a recharge for selling it to a pet store, my mother smiled and said gently: "Okay, leave this small one and be a companion for Luqiao."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the engine shaking at the door came in.

Lu Qiao hugged the blue little Rona excitedly and shouted excitedly: "It's Dad who is back!"

A pickup truck transported the firewood to the door of the house, and Luqiao's father got out of the cab.

He hurried to the back row of wood and took out a spike-filled iron ball, shouting excitedly: "There is a new toy!"

My mother's face changed slightly, and she muttered: "I'm buying these prodigal things again, and I can't even pile up at home anymore, don't you know!"

Seeing that my mother had a temper, my father scratched his head awkwardly: "These are all antiques, what do you know? They are more valuable than your stinky slugs, and they even say I'm wasting money."

Seeing that his parents seemed to be making noise, Lu Qiao hugged Rona's tender voice and asked: "The last time it was a phonograph, the last time it was a pool table. What was Dad this time? It seemed like a thorn ball?"

"I don't know what this time is. It cost me three hundred utus! Check the books left by your deceased grandpa, and you will definitely find how to play it!" Dad excitedly pushed the huge iron spike ball home with a cart.

Mom snorted coldly: "If I had known that you and dad had such a hobby, I would never marry you no matter what! I left first, and Rona would also send it to the pet store. I hope you will figure out what it is next time before buying it home. It's not right! You should never spend money to buy rags and go home again!"

"Don't leave, another nest has failed? Don't send it to me even if there is fire. In this way, after seeing this good thing, I will drive you to sell it. I will bargain to ensure that the boss won't cheat us." Dad smiled and pushed the iron ball on the cart into the room.

"It's just you, don't give it all half-sell and half-sell at that time!" Mom joked again angrily.

"Stop talking about this, come and read the books with me. See what this big iron lump is for!" Dad turned around and walked towards the wall to read the books.

My mother had no choice but to follow her and get a yellowed copy of "100,000 Whys" and started to read it.

Old books on one wall are all products before the end of the world.

Luqiao's father and grandfather both have the habit of collecting old objects, although these are explicitly prohibited in utopia. If they find products before the end of the world, they must be reported and handed over. But grandfather never believed in this evil and always felt that handing over antiques would give away things worth a thousand gold.

Under the training of my grandfather, my father was a carpenter and he also developed a side business of buying miscellaneous goods and reselling them.

Lu Qiao was following his father's butt and kept joining in the fun.

Dad and mom frowned after reading the ancient books that had been around the wall.

"Or? Let me talk about it when I come back? Don't delay me from selling Rona, and wait and cook! Think about it, it's our turn to make valuable things? I've already left the old bullhead to the ghost market, why not leave it?" Mom asked back.

"I'm sending you there, why are you in a hurry? Tell me to try again. I can't get it back if I can't try it once!" Dad put down the book, bent down and took out the tool box for repairing the car from the drawer below.

The top layer opens, a hammer and a screwdriver.

Dad walked towards the big iron ball, looked up and down and said, "You won't lose weight even if you have this weight! You don't know how heavy it is."

"Don't break it, you won't be able to sell it then!" Mom reminded.

"I can't break it, but I still don't believe my tricks are not done? Think about it, who repaired our car?" Dad said as he found a joint, and pointed the screwdriver at the joint and knocked it down.

The screwdriver was embedded in it, and Dad spitted twice, grabbed the hammer and hit it hard again.

Then the huge thorn ball cracked a hole and white smoke rose from the inside.

My mother obviously noticed something was wrong and rushed towards Luqiao, who was at a loss when Luqiao stood at the door holding the blue Rona.

The next second, white light and explosion sounded in the room!

After the white light, the whole house burst and opened.

Huge mushroom clouds appeared above Lugang town, and neighbors around them felt the aftershocks of the explosion.

The old man living next door to Luqiao's house opened his mouth and slapped his ears, as if he could not hear it! He quickly called the police on the landline.

The mushroom clouds dissipated for a long time, and Luqiao's home was razed to the ground.

At the door of the house where Luqiao is located, a door stood there without any damage.

Inside the door, Lu Qiao hugged Rona and stood there in a daze. Lu Qiao felt that his eyes were white and he knew nothing afterwards.

"Dad? Mom?" Lu Qiao shouted, who came to his senses, and cried out after finding that no one responded.

After a long time, the fire brigade arrived.

Firefighters rescued the road and bridge and found many contraband in the ruins at the scene.

There are some scattered fragments. After splicing out a little shape, the name of this thorn ball was found in the first-class ban on the list of contraband products: Mine!

...

In the corner of the lounge, the twenty-seven-year-old Luqiao was lying on the sofa with an old man.

The arms of the two people were connected by a blue Rona that was stretched out in length.

Lu Qiao slowly opened his eyes and took off Rona and explained, "Professor Eugene, what you see is my memory. The fire brigade didn't believe that I was at the first scene of the explosion. After hired a psychologist, he said that I was survivor syndrome, so I was also on the scene. Later, I knew that I couldn't explain it, so I recognized the fact that I was after the explosion, and took Rona back to the scene and was rescued by the firefighters. But you have experienced the truth once and have your own judgment."

Professor Eugene also opened his eyes at this time, unable to believe what he had just experienced.

Lu Qiao soothes the tired Rona and stuffs her into her loose coat to let her sleep.

Eugene recovered and stammered, "Is this what you mean by neural connection technology? It was done by Rona?"

"Yes, my other colleagues have already used mechanical equipment to make neural connections, but I am still trying to use Rona to connect. This technology is expensive to learn, but after learning it, you can let any intelligent creatures exchange their memories." Lu Qiao replied.

As a professor of zoology, Eugene knew that for a time in history, some gray industries liked to rely on Rona to adjust their interests, but who would have thought that Rona could even read memories from each other.

Professor Eugene subconsciously glanced at the watch on his wrist, and only fifteen minutes passed after such a long experience.

"I probably understand and believe what you said. I'm very glad I chose to meet you today, otherwise I really don't know what I missed." Eugene murmured.

"What I want to say next is that it violates the restricted area regulations. I hope you can keep the secret!" Lu Qiao was a little hesitant when he said this, but Eugene in front of him was the top professor of utopian zoology. If he had been with him for more than ten years, if he could not solve it, no one could solve it.

Eugene lit his head: "That is inevitable! You have agreed on academic exchanges before you come, mutual benefit, you say something I cannot know, and I will help you find out your confusion."

Lu Qiao's cell phone sent a message at this time. He picked it up and saw that it was sent by his colleague Dahai: Where did you go? Jack sent a mission, it was quite urgent.

Lu Qiao sent a message back: I'm paying homage to my parents, and I'll go back in another hour.

After sending the message, Luqiao checked the virtual positioning he modified to determine the coordinates near Lugang.

Although my real location is in the Optics Valley District, I can only use this method to deceive the forbidden area.

As an old fry in the penalty area, Lu Qiao knew the consequences of being caught but also had to take risks.

"Do you have something to do?" Eugene looked at Luqiao, whose face changed slightly.

Luqiao stuffed his phone into his pocket: "No, we continue. One question, do you believe there are aliens in this world?"

Eugene quickly replied: "I am an atheist, but I believe there are aliens."

"What you believe is right. Our Utopia actually had contact with aliens ninety years ago. And I am an Earth visa officer under the dual recognition of Utopia and the Universe Alliance, responsible for providing identity visas to aliens." Lu Qiao replied.

"Visa? Give an alien visa?" Eugene looked at Luqiao incredibly.

Lu Qiao nodded slightly: "There are many aliens who disguise themselves as humans living on Earth. They are protected by utopia and cosmic alliances. The purpose of aliens coming to Earth is very simple, just to experience the living environment on Earth to spend their old age. People like me are responsible for visas to these aliens in the forbidden zone to judge whether they are good or bad, and whether they can live on Earth."

"It sounds magical, but I believe what you said." Eugene held up his metal framed glasses.

"It is wrong to think that Rona is just a creature on earth after the end of the world. Outer Rona is a derivative species discovered after the destruction of the earth. After the establishment of the Utopia and the alien alliance, Rona is the first alien creature given to the earth by aliens. When the Utopia leader met and communicated with the alien alliance, Rona was used as a language translation device. In the case of different languages, you can also get to know each other through memory bridges." Lu Qiao explained.

"No wonder, do you know why I believe there are aliens? Because I think Rona is an alien creature, so my theory is correct! I thought Rona was brought by a meteorite, so the truth is that." Eugene reacted.

"In recent years, technological advances have been able to extract the most important substance used for neural connections by Rona: nerve adhesives. Then Rona was gradually eliminated and became a pet or wild breed to reproduce on the earth. My mother was Rona who came into contact with at that time, and then there was an explosion. After the explosion, because there were too many contraband at home, I was taken to the restricted area for investigation and accidentally became a visa officer. And because of my experience, I still like to use Rona for neural connections." Lu Qiao said this, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Eugene lit his head: "I know, the nerve adhesive you mentioned. The favorite of the addict, I didn't expect it to be alien technology."

"Indeed, the initial restricted area technology was easily delegated to private production and was stolen. But now it is completely isolated from the public, and such unexpected events will no longer occur." Lu Qiao replied again.

"So you want to ask, why did the torpedo blow up the house and you weren't dead, right?" Eugene asked in response.

"Yes, this is a question that I have been bothering me for many years and cannot understand. That's why I found you and hope you can answer my question." Lu Qiao lowered his head earnestly, put his hands together and made a gesture of asking.

"Just the memories you let me see, and the things you talk to me about now. It may take me a long time to digest it before I can give you scientific explanations, but in fact, if I put aside my identity, I am not a scientist and you are not a staff member of the state secret industry, I can indeed have a magical discussion and argument with you." Eugene bent down and took out the tea from the cabinet under her feet, found two water cups and brewed two cups of tea with boiling water.
