"I’m not a Space Alien Species!"
Midnight Dad’s anguished roar echoed in the Central Control Hall; if the helt of the spacesuit were transparent in both directions, his distorted face would surely be visible.
Wait, judging by his accent, Midnight Dad is already a Black Person? Then never mind.
For so reason, hearing Midnight Dad’s Black accent, Li Cheng inexplicably heard the lodious sound of a guitar and the crackling whip hitting the air.
"Nobody said you were."
Out of Control spoke to console him while the others present also chid in, urging Midnight Dad not to get agitated.
But everyone here was clever; seeing everyone slowly backing away, Midnight Dad knew he was no longer trusted,
and imdiately reached behind, pulling a sharp tal shard from the crevices of his life-support backpack, and roared, "I didn’t kill Valkyrie, I’m not a Space Alien Species, those two are!"
The Sentry Robot hanging below the ceiling rail automatically identified the violent elent,
and quickly swung around, two tal rods capable of releasing high voltage arcs pointed directly at Midnight Dad below, ready to shoot electric shocks.
Midnight Dad’s heavy breathing ca from the speakers in the neck of the spacesuit, "Do I need to cut open the spacesuit and carve out my insides for you to see?"
With that, he actually took the tal shard and stabbed towards his ribs.
Sand—
The outer layer of the spacesuit was exceptionally tough, refusing to be damaged no matter how he cut, scratched, or slashed.
Li Cheng’s mind raced; Valkyrie was killed, he was in the ventilation duct, Out of Control outside the blast door, with only Edith, Zhongli Mieing, and Midnight Dad in the room.
Edith and Zhongli Mieing simultaneously accused Midnight Dad of being the murderer, leaving three possibilities: one, the first two are both Space Alien Species, conspiring to fra the latter.
Two, Midnight Dad is indeed the murderer, attempting to absolve himself with the radical approach of "if I’m really a Space Alien Species, I should first kill the biggest threat, Edith."
As for the third possibility...
Li Cheng suddenly said, "Doesn’t the holographic map explain that Space Alien Species have so Transformation Ability, right?"
"Right."
Dir said, "Space Alien Species can alter their body structure, including vocal cords, easily mimicking others’ voices. They can also change height, body shape, weight, skin color, race, and even gender.
The only drawback is that Space Alien Species cannot disguise themselves as tal.
Thus, as long as we still wear spacesuits of different colors, Space Alien Species cannot fully disguise themselves."
Dir glanced at Li Cheng, "I’ve observed, Edith, Zhongli Mieing, Midnight Dad, and the deceased Valkyrie, all four spacesuits are intact, and there’s no possibility of being impersonated by Space Alien Species.
Considering the likelihood of Edith and Zhongli Mieing being Space Alien Species is low—the risk of them conspiring is too high,
Midnight Dad remains the pri suspect."
"You Bitch!"
Midnight Dad cursed out loud, but before the cold arc emitter of the Sentry Robot, he could only stand in place.
"No matter what, this round we must execute one maintenance mber to go out."
Hydra tily said, "The loud kid ntioned, among us, there are at most one or two Space Alien Species.
If this round we can kill one Space Alien Species, it will be much easier afterward.
If more deaths occur, then focus on Edith and Zhongli Mieing."
In just a few words, everyone’s fate for Midnight Dad was decided,
Laughing God glanced at Midnight Dad’s hand holding the sharp shard tightly, the glove sinking deep, and advised, "Dude, have an open mind; life is bound to have so grievances.
Look at , a dad secretly selling ancestral property to reward female live-strears,
a mom believing in South Korean religion,
a middle-aged wife vowing to start a milk tea shop to overthrow Mixue Bingcheng,
a daughter on Xiaohongshu cursing my biological dad and asking to explode Gold Coin early,
an eldest son urging classmates to go weekend hiking and trying to be a teen internet sensation on Aota Trail,
a younger son taking steroids and estradiol, trying to be a muscular dicine-girl.
Look at ; my mindset is still pretty good."
These words were so full of points that even Li Cheng was surprised.
Big brother, did your whole family et each other on Tieba? What a real-life version of Family Guy.
Wait, no, how did Laughing God recover his mory so quickly?
Can even rember what his family is like?
Knowing his fate looked grim, Midnight Dad wasn’t in the mood to listen to Laughing God’s nonsense, standing there, clutching the tal shard tightly.
Laughing God, seeing him like this, said, "How about this, we reset it by setting the recoverable rocket cargo spacecraft trajectory to a middle orbital trajectory around the planet.
Space Alien Species don’t have the ability to traverse space, so if, after all the repair work is done, we find the real culprit is soone else, and you’re an innocent human,
we’ll have the loud kid remotely control the trajectory, let the recoverable spacecraft return to Xinxiang Base, upload your mory onto a hard drive, achieving cyber immortality.
In this way, you won’t lose out, right?"
"Ha, who do you think you’re fooling with those words?"
Midnight Dad said hoarsely, "The loud kid can execute dozens of base mbers without distinction; how can you guarantee it will expend computation power to bring back to the ground?
Stop deceiving yourself."
Despite these words, Midnight Dad had already faced reality; he turned around to look at the Sentry Robot and took steps back into the rocket cargo spacecraft, leaning against the curved wall.
(The cargo spacecraft is bullet-shaped, connecting through the elevator shaft to the lower level automated warehouse, capable of restocking after launch.)
Laughing God and Out of Control, Li Cheng, moved Valkyrie’s corpse inside together, then exited the cargo spacecraft,
with Out of Control operating the fool-proof control panel outside the spacecraft, setting the ascent speed to 7.9 kiloters per second,
and the operating speed to 3.87 kiloters per second, enough to orbit the planet in a mid-range trajectory.
"I’ll be waiting for you all in Hell."
As the cargo spacecraft door slowly closed, Midnight Dad gave the thick glass of the observation window the middle finger, coldly saying, "You bunch of sandy..."
The final "beach" was not uttered before the bullet-shaped spacecraft was launched at terrifying supersonic speed by the electromagnetic rail, instantly vanishing from its original position.
This ti Li Cheng stayed alert; he rushed up as soon as the rocket cargo elevator stopped vibrating, his helt pressed against the observation window glass, but it was completely dark, and he couldn’t see anything, so he gave up.
"Mid--night--Dad, arg!"
Laughing God’s legs gave way, dropping to his knees, soul-calling crying,
then he suddenly slapped the ground and stood up, whistling leisurely, "Lulululu~, let’s keep on working in groups now? The repair progress is not even thirty percent, there’s plenty left to do."
"Are you a chaleon? Switching emotions so quickly?"
Dir couldn’t help but retort, but still checked his watch, the current execution countdown, 1 hour 27 minutes.
Ti continues to tick slowly away.
