chapter_007_The truth of the world
"'Cuckoo' is my code name, right~ But it's like a wolf. We want people to call us by names~ Just now~ I just had to let you know some facts~" The girl stretched out her index finger with her right hand and pointed at Lawrence, "My name is Diana~Mr. Lawrence~ You have to remember it well~"
"Dianna..." Lawrence murmured.
"Okay~ I'm quite worried about the current situation of Wolf~ So, don't waste time anymore~ Hurry up and get to the topic~Mr. Lawrence~" When saying this, Diana clapped her hands, and then the "cylinder" appeared again, but this time, it brought several smaller metal cylinders that could be grabbed with one hand.
The girl picked up the small metal cylinder and skillfully used a small metal ring on it to "open" the metal cylinder. When the opened metal cylinder was placed in front of Lawrence, Lawrence smelled a scent of food.
"Gu~Gu~"
At this time, Lawrence remembered that he had not yet dripped in from his coma last night until now. When he realized this, his stomach was just as hungry as the sound.
"Although this military canned food doesn't taste very good, but it's absolutely comprehensive and sufficient in nutrition~" As he said that, Diana took out a spoon from somewhere and handed it to Lawrence.
"Ah...thank you." Lawrence took the spoon, picked up the can of white, very sticky gum-like substance in front of him. He called it a "military can" by Diana, scooped a large piece with the spoon, and stuffed it into his mouth.
There was almost no need to chew it, and the white object that was very similar to the taste of the jelly meat slid into Lawrence's stomach along the esophagus, making his empty stomach feel a little more comfortable.
As for the taste, Lawrence can only say that except for a little light but probably a necessary saltiness, this white gelatinous substance has no other taste, so Diana's "not bad" evaluation is indeed very pertinent.
However, at this moment, Lawrence, who was actually very hungry, didn't care about whether it was delicious or not. What's more, this kind of food with only a light salty taste is much better than the salty and bitter jerky meat when traveling between towns and hard black bread that is almost impossible to taste.
The small metal round can was not big. With just a few bites, Lawrence ate the "food" inside.
"The microbial food manufacturing system is indeed cheap to own, fast production and many other advantages~ But if you want to make the taste better, it is really not worth it~" Diana opened another small metal round can and handed it to Lawrence, and said, "Of course~ If there is no cherry stone~ this small device will become useless~"
"Ahem..." Hearing Diana's words, Lawrence hurriedly swallowed the second can of food in two mouthfuls. "This round metal can and the things inside... have a lot to do with the silver-white ore, Miss Diana, what those people call "cherry stones"?"
"First of all, please don't call me the title of "Miss". Mr. Lawrence. If you count it, I'm the ancestor of your ancestors. Either call me my name~ or you find a title of the right seniority~" the girl said to Lawrence with a squinted eyes and smiled.
"Haha..." Hearing the girl's description of him, Lawrence could only laugh twice. If the girl in front of him was really a similar existence to Hero, her age would indeed be "the ancestor of his ancestors". However, Lawrence didn't have much contact with her, and the tone of the girl always had a strong girlish atmosphere, so Lawrence always had an illusion that the other party was just a child younger than him.
"It's better to obey your orders than respect, Diana." Lawrence followed suit, "Can I guess this slightly? You no longer belong to that organization, right?"
"Well, should I say that I am worthy of being the one chosen by the wolf? It's such a quick intuition~Mr. Lawrence~" At this time, the girl lay on the sofa again, looking lazy, "Nothing wrong~ I am indeed the second lieutenant of the 'bird' unit of the First Army of the First Federation of Humanities, code-named 'Dujuan'. But now I am just a girl waiting for the destined person to appear~"
When she was telling her identity, the girl still looked formal, but in the next sentence, the girl turned into a cynical teasing tone again.
However, from Diana's words, Lawrence got a lot of unfamiliar information.
"Human Federation? Joint Fleet? Second Lieutenant?" Lawrence was puzzled, "What are these...?"
"Hey~ Sure enough, when there is a lack of sufficient equal knowledge, no matter how smart and keen humans are, they cannot make correct judgments~" Diana said while unconsciously swaying her fair calves, "Can you tell the history of human beings ~ Mr. Lawrence~?"
"Human history?" Lawrence was even more puzzled by why Diana suddenly asked such a question, but she still told all the things she knew when she was a child from the Sunday school of the church.
"Hmm~ This is the problem~" After listening to Lawrence's narration, Diana spread her hands and made a helpless gesture, "Religion is indeed a good way to control people's thoughts~ Have you never doubted that the 'history' given to you by the church professor is really too illusory and unreal~ Mr. Lawrence~"
Illusion and unreality? Life is only a few decades. Even if it is just a matter of ten years ago, human beings will forget most of it. Only a very small amount will remain in memory and become precious memories. Moreover, except for those old scholars who are buried in the old paper and some ambitious people, "history" is meaningless for most people. Therefore, just like most people, Lawrence has never cared about the truth or falsehood of "history".
"Well, if I say, what is the 'history' you know, it is completely made by some annoying guys. Even on this planet, the development trajectory of human beings is arranged by such an annoying guy. In this case, what will you feel~Mr. Lawrence~?"
