Chapter 86 Lao Zhao
Upon entering the flower, bird, fish and insect shop, I saw a strange man in a uniform.
"Old Zhao?" Chen Min looked at the man with some surprise.
"Oh, isn't this Captain Chen?" The stranger was taken aback when he saw Chen Min, then looked at Mo Qianxun beside her with some surprise. "This must be Comrade Mo!"
"Hello, my name is Mo Qianxun."
"I've heard so much about you. Since we entered this base, your name has been mentioned the most." Old Zhao politely extended his hand to Mo Qianxun.
Mo Qianxun shook hands back: "Not at all, by the way, I'm here to pick up some goods."
"Oh, five large portions of shrimp-shaped algae, right? I'll get them for you right away." Old Zhao said, walking towards the innermost shelf.
Chen Min looked at Lao Zhao's retreating figure with some confusion: "What are you doing here?"
Old Zhao paused for two seconds: "I've stepped down from the front lines."
Chen Min frowned slightly: "Why? You shouldn't be stepping down now... Are you injured?"
Old Zhao carried a tank of shrimp-shaped algae to the ground: "It's nothing serious. During a mission, a piece of shrapnel got lodged in my body. Because it was close to my heart, they didn't dare to operate on it easily, so I stepped down. But the higher-ups treated me well and transferred me here. I just take care of these things every day, which is quite leisurely."
“Old Zhao…” Chen Min’s eyes were filled with a complicated expression.
She had worked with Lao Zhao before when they were on a mission, and she knew how much Lao Zhao loved that job. She wondered how sad he must have been to be transferred from the position he loved.
"Captain Chen, don't look at me like that. When the general transferred me here, he told me that maybe I'd have a chance to go back!" Old Zhao patted her shoulder with a smile.
Chen Min glanced at Mo Qianxun beside her and nodded with a smile: "It definitely will."
Old Zhao brought over four more tanks of shrimp-shaped algae: "Alright, five portions of shrimp-shaped algae."
Mo Qianxun put the shrimp-shaped algae into her Qiankun bag.
Chen Min nudged him and said, "Old Zhao, you seem to know a lot about these things. Does your family also own a shop in the flower, bird, fish and insect market?"
"...Captain Chen, there's something called a cell phone, you can search for it." Old Zhao took out his cell phone from his pocket. The screen was still lit up, and the content displayed on it was a picture of shrimp-shaped algae.
Chen Min: ...I forgot, I forgot.
"Besides, I've been studying hard lately, trying to figure out all the plants." Now that I've been transferred, I naturally have to do a good job.
"Good luck, we'll be going now." Chen Min pulled Mo Qianxun away from the store.
Seeing that Chen Min's expression hadn't been good since she came out, Mo Qianxun tilted her head and asked, "Instructor Chen, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of my former teammates. They should be fighting on the front lines now! I wonder how they are doing."
"..."
"Alright, stop thinking about it and hurry up and deliver the goods." Chen Min pushed Mo Qianxun forward.

In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
After changing into her diving suit, Mo Qianxun pushed open the interstellar door and stepped inside. Instantly, she felt herself immersed in water. To be honest, that moment felt like a frightening fall, and the experience wasn't pleasant.
This time, Mo Qianxun looked around and realized it wasn't pitch black. This place seemed to be a temple.
"Miss Mo?" Qi Yao was somewhat surprised to see the familiar figure as he entered the temple.
Mo Qianxun turned around: "Mr. Qi?" "Miss Mo, just call me Qi Yao. What are you doing in the temple? I even sent someone to look for you." Qi Yao swam up to Mo Qianxun.
Mo Qianxun noticed that Qi Yao's fishtail seemed to have become much darker.
"Don't call me Miss Mo anymore, just call me Qianxun. Qi Yao, your tail..."
Qi Yao looked down at his fishtail, a dark glint in his eyes: "It's nothing, just a bit of my divine power is depleted. I'll be fine after a period of rest."
"...Is shrimp-shaped algae useless?"
"It's useful, but the quantity is still too small. For the entire planet Haigus, the effect of those shrimp-shaped algae is negligible, but it's still useful."
Mo Qianxun took out five samples of shrimp-shaped algae: "These are the shrimp-shaped algae from this time. Don't worry, we are also studying the seawater here. If we find a solution, we will definitely let you know."
Mo Qianxun suddenly remembered that she seemed to have obtained a purification device from the transaction with Yairo. She would go back and see if she could purify the seawater.
"Thank you, Chihiro, thank you so much. I thought the life on Haiges Star was coming to an end, but we never expected that we would actually see hope."
"Don't say that, we're helping each other out." I help you purify the ocean, and you give me points, isn't that helping each other out?
Qi Yao smiled. He himself looked like a cute puppy, and that smile touched her heart.
"This is for you." Qi Yao took out a blue stone from the seaweed at his waist and handed it to her.
"Given to me?"
Upon receiving the stone, Mo Qianxun could see that it faintly emitted a blue light. Could this be some kind of mineral?
“Yes! This kind of stone is called Tarana on Haigus, and it’s a very common stone.” Qi Yao scratched his head a little embarrassedly as he said this. “Hagus has become like this, and this is all I can offer. Please don’t look down on it.”
Mo Qianxun put the stone into her Qiankun bag: "How could I dislike it? I like it very much."
Qi Yao's eyes lit up immediately: "Really? I thought you would look down on it because it's just an ordinary stone."
"I'm happy that you had this thought in mind; the gift itself doesn't matter."
As Mo Qianxun looked around, she suddenly noticed out of the corner of her eye that Qi Yao's right hand seemed to be behind his back the whole time.
"Qi Yao, is your hand... alright?"
"Huh?" Seeing where her gaze was directed, Qi Yao pulled his hand back slightly. "It's nothing, it's nothing."
"008, what happened to Qi Yao's hand?" Mo Qianxun asked in her mind.
[Host, as the High Priest, Qi Yao needs to use divine power to help other mermaids delay the onset of their illness. It seems that he has overdrawn his divine power and been infected by pollutants.] It seems that the situation on Haigus Star is more serious than I imagined.
Upon hearing this, Mo Qianxun looked at Qi Yao's hand and asked, "Are you really alright?"
"I'm fine, Chihiro. You should leave here quickly. You're so clean, you shouldn't stay in a place like this for too long. Even in a temple, it's not necessarily completely unpolluted. Staying too long might not be good for you." Qi Yao looked at her very seriously.
Mo Qianxun: ...
