The Most Powerful Brain in the Interstellar Space

Chapter 305 Curiosity
Huan Xian was still wearing his school uniform, but the background behind him was unclear, and the decorations there seemed stiff and empty.

Very good, this gives a general idea of ​​different lifestyles among people.

Clarence initiated the conversation, presumably to ask if everyone had received the physical invitations, as only A-level tickets come with them. Apparently, these invitations can be exchanged for a voucher for the Natural Restaurant, which can be used to dine at the restaurant located inside the Arena.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this is a restaurant inside the arena, and it's called "Nature Restaurant"—a rather unassuming name. In the interstellar world, anything that can be called "Nature" is no ordinary shop. It's far more prestigious than a tire manufacturer on Earth; you need to apply to the Nature Association to use that title. After all, in the technologically advanced interstellar world, anything that can be called "natural" is expensive.

Even someone like Clarence, who clearly comes from a well-off family, highly recommends giving it a try, which speaks volumes about its rarity. That's why they specifically called to remind everyone to bring the physical invitations as well.

It seems everyone is discussing a more recreational activity, so they're not as formal as they are at school and all seem quite relaxed. Hillman even started chatting with them casually, proving that no one can beat Hillman when it comes to being outgoing and friendly. Despite his young age, his smooth-talking manner is perfectly suited to business acumen.

However, Hillman and Zhou Xiuwen were the ones doing most of the talking, while Huan Xian and Clarence were just listening. Jiang Hui, as she listened, started to lose focus, and Hillman had to specifically ask her a question.

Since things had come to this point, she didn't need to dwell on who was involved anymore. Instead, she decided to ask these individuals; perhaps they would have a better understanding of the situation. So, Jiang Hui inquired about the matter of retrieving the bank.

"What do you need to buy from the recycling center? I can have someone at home keep an eye out for you." This is Hillman's usual style.

Jiang Hui knew that the other party's family was in business, and he had previously asked the other party to help him snag limited edition models, so he naturally knew that what the other party said was true.

Upon hearing this, she shook her head and said, "...I can't say for sure what I'm looking for, I just want to take a look." She actually knew what she wanted to buy, but telling someone that she wanted to collect some mecha materials was just too abstract.

If Hillman were to help find it, what if the other party misunderstands and buys something very expensive? Would she accept the order or not?

Besides, she can't keep asking for help like this in the future. If she could figure out the details of the recycling center, wouldn't it be more convenient for her to buy things herself when needed? Jiang Hui had a feeling that there would be many such situations in the future, and she would eventually have to learn to collect materials herself.

Hillman wasn't the type to pry, and simply said he'd ask his family later if they knew any reliable secondhand dealers, and then let her know.

Jiang Hui didn't refuse, because in any recycling center, the locals would definitely know the situation best. It would be ideal if someone knowledgeable could help her find out more, saving her from making mistakes in the future.

As for owing Hillman a favor, she would simply take better care of her friend in the future; there was nothing else she could do for the time being.

"So, do you have a general idea of ​​where you want to go?" Zhou Xiuwen asked.

Jiang Hui nodded, slightly embarrassed, and read aloud the strange shop names she had just memorized. "Rich or Poor Old Goods Market," Zhou Xiuwen repeated, pausing for a moment, "I've been to this place before. It's very big, and the things inside are quite interesting. You can go and have a look."

"you've been to?"

Zhou Xiuwen nodded. He had been to this place once before, when he had just moved back to Planet 732. At that time, the army commander who was with his father noticed that he was a bit depressed after the change of environment, so he took him for a stroll around Planet 732, and they had visited this recycling center.

However, he encountered a little trouble there, which terrified the uncle who had taken him there. After that, the uncle never took him out alone again, and naturally, he never went to that recycling center again.

Now that Jiang Hui brought it up, it immediately stirred up memories from a very long time ago, reminding him that he had lived here for many years and had rarely gone out. It seemed that apart from the school, home, and his father's few fixed offices, he had never been anywhere else.

Now we have a reference point. Since Zhou Xiuwen, this local, can be described with so many things, he must really be quite good.

Jiang Hui immediately became interested. She had previously used the navigation app to find this recycling center; it wasn't far from her home, only about two weeks' journey by city bus, and even faster by airship. She thought she might go tomorrow and visit the city center library while she was there. The books at school were too academic; Jiang Hui wanted to try something different.

Whether it was her expression that was too obvious or her purpose that was too clear, Zhou Xiuwen immediately saw through her plan and asked her if she wanted to go, and if so, if she could invite him to go with her.
That's not a big deal. Going alone or with someone else... makes no difference. Everyone's just looking at their own things anyway. Zhou Xiuwen has been there before; he might even know the way better than she does.

I thought that was the end of it, but it turns out the others also seemed interested.

Hillman was the first to ask to join the trip; he had been very enthusiastic about forming a group from the beginning. They hadn't been able to make plans for Friday, but as soon as he heard they wanted to go, he remembered it and immediately said he wanted to travel together.

Then the second one turned out to be Clarence. He had been listening quietly the whole time, then suddenly asked them about the meeting place and time, clearly intending to follow them. So Jiang Hui's original plan to travel alone instantly turned into a trip for four.

Okay, one person... four people or five people, it's not much different, is it?
Four out of five people were going, so they couldn't leave one out. So Jiang Hui, in a "what the heck" attitude, asked Huan Xian, who was listening idly nearby, if he wanted to come along, and received an affirmative answer.

It has to be said that this is a bit ridiculous... How could a group of classmates go to a second-hand recycling store after class? She was planning to collect some mecha materials for experiments, and what were these rich kids doing there? Just watching the show?

Hey, they seem... they really do seem to be there to watch the fun.

Jiang Hui found it somewhat amusing. The group agreed on a time and place, chatted for a while, and then hung up.
