Chapter 118 Traveling Together
Chapter 118 Traveling Together
Over the next few days, the two spent their time writing and painting, or traveling around the planet on their swords, enjoying a leisurely and pleasant time.
That day, after receiving a call, Mo Ze looked at Lin Shushu with some anticipation.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Mo Ze's expression clearly indicated that something was wrong.
"Shushu, let's go out and play!" Mo Ze suggested.
Something's not right. Based on Lin Shushu's understanding of Mo Ze, he would prefer to stay with her on Star M19. Doesn't his comfortable life these past few days prove that?
"Tell me, what's wrong? You can't just want to go out and have fun." Lin Shushu had a look on her face that said, "You can't fool me."
"Okay, I confess." Mo Ze raised his hands in surrender.
Lin Shushu looked at him calmly, gesturing for him to speak quickly.
"That's right. I went to wipe out the Meteorite Pirates a while ago. Although we wiped out their main force, there are still some issues left over, such as the source of their weapons, which we haven't been able to find out."
Lin Shushu still remembered this incident. Mo Ze had returned to the Imperial Star, thinking he would be back soon, but unexpectedly, he took on a mission to eliminate space pirates halfway through his journey.
It was around that time that she learned about J56, which led to the events that followed. She got a small revenge and reunited with her family. Overall, the trip was quite rewarding.
"So now we have a lead?" Lin Shushu asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Shushu is so smart! Here's a kiss for you." He then hugged Lin Shushu and gave her a quick kiss on the lips.
Lin Shushu pushed him away impatiently, "Since it's a mission, why are you asking me?"
Mo Ze ignored her pushing and pulled her back on the recliner. "Because I can't bear to part with you. Last time I left, you followed right after me without even telling me."
"This is something that can't be let go of, right?" Lin Shushu retorted confidently. "Didn't I promise you there wouldn't be a next time?"
“I know, but the most effective way is for us to travel together.”
"Is it appropriate for me to do your task?"
"Why not? The two of us can complete the task more effectively together."
Mo Ze was very confident about this. In fact, even if he went alone, there wouldn't be any problems with the mission, and with Shu Shu joining him, the outcome was even more certain.
Lin Shushu didn't actually object to going out with him, but since she was an outsider when it came to military matters, she needed to clarify some things to avoid overstepping boundaries.
This mission will once again be handled by the Fifth Army Group. Mo Ze's amazing performance last time greatly impressed them, so they asked him for help again this time.
Since the annihilation of the Meteorite Pirates, the Fifth Army has never given up on tracking down the people behind them.
Persistence pays off, and they finally traced it back to an organization called Blazing Flame. All signs pointed to this organization as the weapons supplier behind Blazing Fire.
Unfortunately, many people have never heard of this organization, and no one knows where their headquarters are.
The Fifth Army only learned of the organization's existence after thoroughly analyzing Liu Huo's actions over the years, as well as all the people and events related to them.
But that was all. Due to the lack of information, they felt frustrated and didn't know where to start, which is why they thought of Mo Ze.
Given Mo Ze's abilities, it would be best for him to investigate.
This is also one of the reasons why Mo Ze wanted to bring Lin Shushu along. Their trip was ostensibly for sightseeing, so as not to attract attention and to better cooperate with the Fifth Army Group's operations.
Having learned the whole story, Lin Shushu naturally wouldn't refuse to go with him.
Thinking about it carefully, this kind of life is actually quite meaningful. When I'm tired, I can go back to my own territory to rest, and when something happens, I can lend a hand. Isn't this exactly what I wanted when I first arrived in interstellar space?
Tianxuan Star.
Lin Shushu stared in disbelief at the technologically advanced planet. Forgive her, she was a country girl who had never seen the world before.
Since arriving in interstellar space, she hasn't been to many places. The few places she has been to are either remote or primitive planets, not much different from her M19 planet.
Tianxuan Star is the most prosperous planet besides Dixing, a place many people yearn for.
It can be said that, apart from those from the Imperial Star, the people here don't take anyone else seriously. This confidence comes from the planet's rich heritage.
Lin Shushu and Mo Ze arrived at the main city of Tianxuan Star.
When they first entered the city, the person in charge of registering information on the migrant population immediately showed disdain upon hearing that they were from planet M19. He even complained to their faces: "Two more people from a garbage planet."
Clearly, the people here refer to all low-level planets as "junk planets," and they make no attempt to hide their disdain.
If it weren't for having a legitimate source to facilitate future actions, Lin Shushu would never have followed the rules and made any registration, and would have had to endure these people's disdain.
"What did you just say? Say it again!" While Lin Shushu was still complaining in her heart, Mo Ze had already shouted at her.
The person in charge of registration was Ni Lin. She was not guilty at all when she heard Mo Ze's question. She crossed her arms and glanced at Lin Shushu and Mo Ze. At this moment, their faces were disguised, and they looked like two ordinary people from a small place.
“Some people just can’t see their own place. What’s M19 Star? Never even heard of it. What else could it be but a garbage planet?” Ni Lin’s arrogance was undisguised.
The coldness in Mo Ze's eyes was almost overflowing, but Ni Lin still continued to mock him with an arrogant demeanor.
"Do you think coming to Tianxuan Star will allow you to escape your status as a lower-class person? You're dreaming."
Seeing that Mo Ze was losing control and was about to strike Ni Lin with spiritual power in his hand, Lin Shushu hurriedly blocked him and held his hand down.
Even setting aside the fact that they came on a mission and shouldn't attract too much attention, Lin Shushu wouldn't stand by and watch Mo Ze argue with such a petty person. Wouldn't that be giving her face?
After stopping Mo Ze's actions, Lin Shushu smiled and looked at Ni Lin, "Have we completed our information registration?"
Ni Lin had also seen Mo Ze's anger just now. Now that she saw him being comforted by Lin Shushu, the fear he had felt just moments before had vanished, and she had returned to her arrogant demeanor.
"Alright, hurry up and get out of here. Don't get in my way. Next one."
Before leaving, Lin Shushu looked at Ni Lin and said, "Miss, you are really beautiful!"
After saying that, without waiting for her to react, she pulled Mo Ze and walked straight away.
Ni Lin thought Lin Shushu was flattering her, so she touched her face and smiled smugly.
Walking down the street, Mo Ze was still angry. "Shu Shu, why did you stop me from teaching her a lesson?"
"Why? How could you not know?" Lin Shushu asked back.
Mo Ze's expression softened slightly. Of course, he had considered the potential harm that Lin Shushu could think of, but he couldn't bear to see Lin Shushu suffer even the slightest grievance.
Moreover, M19 is the place he most wants to protect in his life. It was because of it that he was able to meet Lin Shushu, so he was naturally furious to hear someone slandering it.
