Chapter 518: Attract Unwanted Attention
Su Wan gave the blue diamond necklace to Nono and brought it back to Luo Yi’s house.
Mama Luo was standing at the door, pacing back and forth. When she saw Su Wan, her eyes lit up.
“You’re finally back.”
Su Wan had gone to the garbage dump for half a day. Seeing that the sky was about to turn dark, Mama Luo was anxious. She even wondered if that wretched girl did not want to come back?
Mama Luo had secretly taken a few photos of Su Wan and brought them to the inspector.
The inspector was very satisfied with Su Wan’s appearance. He said that he was preparing to leave Planet Allen the day after tomorrow and that he would come back tomorrow morning to take her!
Moreover, the inspector had sent over two thousand galactic coins! He said that he could add another five thousand galactic coins when he saw her!
Mama Luo felt like she had never seen so much money in her entire life.
Now, as long as she sold this little girl, not to mention Luo Yi’s tuition fees, she would not have to worry about food and clothing for the next few years!
If Su Wan disappeared, how would she explain it to the inspector?!
Mama Luo had long heard that the inspector had a vengeful personality. Perhaps he would think that she had deliberately deceived him and sentence her to a few years in prison.
Now that the money tree had returned, how could she not be happy?!
The more Mama Luo looked at Su Wan, the more satisfied she became. After taking care of her for a few days, she had gotten rid of that sickly and weak spirit. As expected, her small appearance had become more lively.
When Su Wan saw Mama Luo’s flattering smile, a trace of disgust flashed across her heart, but she did not dare to show it on the surface.
Su Wan placed the metal piece she picked up on the ground, then clapped her hands and called out Nono who was hiding at the side.
Soon, a small silver head poked out from the corner of the wall. As if it was afraid of people, it slowly walked behind Su Wan and greeted Mama Luo timidly.
“h.e.l.lo.”
The soft and cute mechanical voice of an electronic synthesizer came out. Su Wan could not help but reach out and rub Nono’s head.
When Mama Luo saw Nono, her eyes widened. She gulped and looked at Su Wan in disbelief.
“Where did you find a robot? From the garbage dump?”
In fact, the price of a normal robot was very low. Most of them were used to do housework, while humanoid robots were expensive.
If it was not for the fact that she had to support Luo Yi’s studies, Mama Luo could also buy a housework robot to improve her life.
Now that Nono’s watch case was so old and worn, it was obvious that someone had abandoned it. It lacked maintenance and care.
Seeing Su Wan nod, she kept gesturing with her hands, asking if Nono could stay.
Mama Luo frowned when she saw the two of them in unison. In the end, she agreed.
Anyway, this wretched girl was going to be taken away by the censor tomorrow, so there was no harm in humoring her now.
Thinking of the two thousand galactic coins that had already been added to her account, the corners of Mama Luo’s mouth could not help but twitch!
She could still get five thousand galactic coins tomorrow! Her days were finally going to be comfortable.
In the evening, Mama Luo seemed to be merciful and made Su Wan an extra round of vegetables and rice.
After eating nutrient reagents for three to four days in a row, this was the first time Su Wan had eaten such pure natural food. If she had not seen Mama Luo and Luo Yi take the initiative to eat, Su Wan would not have eaten it.
One shouldn’t have the heart to harm others, but one should be wary of others.
This old saying was verified by Mama Luo and her son.
While Luo Yi was eating, he was obviously absent-minded. He even looked at Su Wan guiltily from time to time, as if he wanted to say something but didn’t know how to open his mouth.
Mama Luo glared at Luo Yi on the banquet table. Luo Yi didn’t look at Su Wan anymore. He just silently ate the vegetables in his bowl.
After dinner, Mama Luo suddenly pulled Su Wan out. Su Wan had already realized what she was going to say, so she was very calm.
Mama Luo held a metal pen and an electronic screen. As she spoke, she gestured at Su Wan.
The gist of it was that there was a guest coming tomorrow, so Su Wan had to treat him well.
Nono stood not far away and silently translated Mama Luo’s words with its mouth. The way it translated at the same time was really humorous.
Because she did not want Mama Luo to know that she and Nono could communicate without any trouble, Su Wan had been holding back her laughter the entire time. She waited until Mama Luo was getting impatient before nodding her head with a half-understanding look.
Mama Luo had spent so much saliva. When she saw Su Wan nod her head, she immediately taught her how to address the guest.
Anyway, Su Wan had just learned the interstellar language, so she would be fine being a vase. With this face, she believed that as long as she addressed the inspector as “Lord,” he would not care that Su Wan was illiterate.
…
The next day, Su Wan woke up early in the morning. She grabbed the blanket, but her heart was still very nervous.
Su Wan heard from Nono that there were still a few people in this world who were born with supernatural abilities. If the inspector was such a person, then the chances of Nono defeating him were very small.
Anyway, if the inspector was really strong, she could slowly find an opportunity to escape.
In the eyes of outsiders, a woman who could not communicate in the interstellar language was no different from a mute, so their guard must have been lowered.
Speaking of which, it was all because of this face.
Su Wan had always thought that with the development of technology in the future, there would be a lot of plastic surgery and face-changing. It would be easy for anyone to get a beautiful body.
However, she did not expect that thousands of years ago, the Milky Way Galactic Alliance had banned humans from modifying their faces through plastic surgery, in order to reduce the chances of galactic war criminals escaping.
After leaving Planet Allen, Su Wan was ready to pretend to be an ordinary person and start a new life.
Here, she was alone and without a n.o.ble background. Her beautiful face would only attract unwanted attention and invite trouble.
…
“Lord, the girl I told you about is inside.”
Su Wan pursed her lips when she heard Mama Luo’s respectful words outside. Then, she held Nono’s hand and walked into the living room.
In an instant, a middle-aged man’s figure appeared in Su Wan’s eyes.
His face was neither handsome nor ugly. He was wearing a blue tuxedo with a lapel collar, a fine velvet s.h.i.+rt under it, and a big ruby ring on his hand. He looked refined, with a hint of an aristocratic temperament.
This man was old enough to be her father!
He looked serious, but who knew what dirty thoughts he was hiding in his heart.
Su Wan held Nono’s hand even tighter.
The middle-aged inspector, who was sitting lazily, suddenly stood up after Su Wan came out.
His eyes flashed with obvious amazement. Although he had seen Su Wan’s photo, after seeing her in person, he felt that the photo was too stiff and not one-tenth as smart as the real person.
His eyes shone brightly. It was hard to imagine that such a beauty would exist in such a desolate and remote place like Planet Allen. Moreover, she was very generous and did not show any signs of cowardice.
The inspector curled the corners of his lips and said in a deliberately gentle voice, “h.e.l.lo.”
