Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life

Sherlock not only made some himself using alchemy, but also bought quite a few of these things and placed them in the bathroom inside the spaceship.

What pleased Sherlock the most was an automatic body scrubber, which not only ensured a thorough scrubbing effect on both sides for men and four sides for women, but also provided a full-service massage with salt, milk, head massage, back patting, and foot kneading after the scrubbing.

After all, Sherlock always felt a bit strange if he didn't scrub himself while taking a bath.

Aside from these, Sherlock actually buys mostly green plants.

That's right, Sherlock had practically turned the entire living room into an orange grove.

Although the official name of that thing shouldn't be orange tree, it looks and tastes similar to an orange. The main reason for planting some greenery is that Sherlock found it too depressing to not see any greenery while sailing.

You know what, after planting those six orange trees, the living room of the spaceship seemed to be much brighter.

Aside from the orange trees, the things Sherlock and Doro bought the most were probably all sorts of ingredients.

The once empty warehouse was mostly filled by Sherlock and Doro, those two gluttons. In fact, over the course of three days, both Sherlock and Doro gained a little weight.

After three days, when the three Seafood Generals, Lilith, Flower Sister, and Gandalf returned, the once cold and lifeless spaceship finally began to feel like a 'home'.

What pleased Sherlock the most was a contraption that the three seafood admirals had bought, which they called the 'artificial sun'.

This little gadget can create a simulated sun the size of a fist, which can perfectly simulate sunbathing in the living room. Combined with the lounge chair brought back by the three seafood generals, even if you are bored in the future, you will have some entertainment.

As for Sister Hua and Gandalf, their items were more of a source of emotional comfort.

Gandalf bought a huge collection of books, ranging from technical guides to various comic books and novels, and even some unique entertainment games and videos from the planet Lighthealer. It was all-encompassing, and Sherlock even discovered quite a few adult magazines!

To be frank, when it comes to meticulousness, one has to be Gandalf, who lived a long enough life.

As for Sister Hua, to everyone's surprise, she actually bought a large fish tank and some fish fry and other such things.

These shouldn't have been major problems; Sherlock could have easily helped Sister Hua seal up the fish tank and place it in the living room.

Things suddenly started to get complicated after the three seafood connoisseurs pulled out three dried fish from their large pile of purchases.

Chapter 405 Shopping After Freedom (Part 2)

It's understandable that Hana bought a fish tank, since conditions on the spaceship are limited, and Hana can't really do things like flower arranging. Buying a fish tank and feeding the fish is in line with Hana's character, Unohana Retsu.

However, it's a bit illogical for the three seafood generals to pull out fishing rods. Although spaceships have the word "ship" in their name, they don't actually travel on water. You can't just go to outer space and cast a line for no reason, can you?

What are you trying to catch? An asteroid or a fish that can't possibly exist in space?

Okay, even if you don't know why you bought a fishing rod, which is practically junk in interstellar travel, couldn't you at least wait for the right moment before taking it out?

Sister Hua just moved out the fish tank, and you pulled out your fishing rod?

What, are you trying to challenge Sister Hua to a duel or something?

Seeing that the three seafood generals had pulled out fishing rods, Sherlock cautiously shifted his gaze to Flower Sister's face, then swallowed hard, and pulled Doro to quietly retreat behind Gandalf, so as not to get splattered with blood later!

Although Hana still has the same smile as Unohana Retsu on her face, in terms of temperament, Hana has already transformed into Unohana Yachiru!

If it weren't for Sister Hua holding her newly bought fish tank, Sherlock would have suspected that the three seafood generals opposite him would have already turned into minced meat!

It was obvious that the three seafood generals on the other side could also sense that Sister Hua's mood was off, especially Chi Xinghe and Huang Mian, who were currently using swords and had previously used swords.

That's why the three seafood generals have such great chemistry.

After exchanging a quick glance, Huang Mian and Chi Xing almost simultaneously shoved their fishing rods into Zhang Zhi's arms. Before Zhang Zhi could react, they decisively took a step back.

This one step instantly transformed the three seafood generals, who were originally feeling Sister Hua's killing intent equally, into Zhang Zhi, who had to withstand most of Sister Hua's killing intent all by herself.

Zhang Zhi was completely devastated. His expression was as if he had discovered that his wife had cheated on him with his own father! The deep sense of betrayal he felt was enough to make anyone who saw or heard of it grieve.

But there was no going back now. Holding three fishing rods, Zhang Zhi could only turn his head towards Sister Hua like a rusty machine, and stammered to her with an extremely embarrassed expression.

"Ha...haha, well, you know we used to travel by boat when we were on missions. Well, I'm just saying this is because we're used to buying things from when we were on missions. I don't know if you'll believe me?"

Upon hearing Zhang Zhi's words, Sister Hua's smile became even brighter. She stared at Zhang Zhi's face with a smile before speaking softly.

"Really?"

Of course, if Sister Hua hadn't exuded an even stronger murderous aura when she said those words, the three seafood generals might have been a little more relaxed.

As for now? After hearing Sister Hua's three-word question, the three seafood generals were sweating profusely. In fact, under Sister Hua's murderous aura, which was like a hellish scene, the three seafood generals had already begun to imagine themselves turning into sashimi.

Seeing that the three seafood generals were about to become the legendary, paper-thin, top-grade seafood sashimi in the next second, Gandalf, who had been watching this scene from beginning to end, didn't hesitate to pick up Sherlock and throw him around to prevent his teammates from becoming food.

Sherlock, completely bewildered by Gandalf's immense strength, landed squarely between Sister Flower and the three Seafood Generals.

Before Sherlock could react, Gandalf's voice rang out.

"Lie, calm down. I believe that young Sherlock can definitely handle this. He can keep your fish safe and also let those three unlucky guys catch fish. Look at that orange tree, isn't it doing quite well?"

???

No? Me?

Upon hearing Gandalf's words, Sherlock was completely dumbfounded. No, what did this have to do with him?

Sherlock pointed at himself with an incredulous look, his eyes filled with doubt as he looked in Gandalf's direction. But when their eyes met, Gandalf's old face was contorted with excitement, frantically gesturing for him to agree and calm the impending murder first.

It's possible that Gandalf's statement really worked, or that Sister Hua genuinely believed Zhang Zhi's words, or perhaps Sister Hua simply believed that Sherlock could indeed accomplish it.

After hearing Gandalf's statement, Sister Hua finally shifted her gaze from Zhang Zhi to Sherlock's face.

With that same gentle, watery smile paired with that murderous aura that was like a living hell, Sister Hua calmly uttered three more words to Sherlock.

"Really?"

Upon hearing Sister Hua's question, Sherlock almost burst into tears. "What does this have to do with me? Shouldn't your murderous aura be directed at the three behind me? What's the meaning of targeting me?"

Of course, Sherlock only dared to think these words in his heart; it was absolutely impossible for him to say them aloud, especially since he could feel the almost pleading gazes of the three scoundrels behind him.

In the end, Sherlock could only swallow hard before shakily raising a finger and speaking to Sister Hua.

"I...I'll give it a try?"

Upon hearing Sherlock's words, Sister Hua didn't say anything. She simply put down the fish tank in her hand, turned around, and went straight back to her room.

However, what Sherlock didn't notice was that the moment Hua Jie pushed open the door to her room, a smile of triumph appeared on her face.

Not only Sister Flora, but even the three Seafood Generals behind Sherlock showed a hint of joy in their eyes, while Gandalf alone had a shrewd and calculating look on his face.

Fortunately, in the current situation, although Gandalf's face was full of cunning and shrewdness, there was nothing wrong with it.

Seeing that the 'riot' had been resolved peacefully at the cost of Sherlock's life, the three Seafood Generals stepped forward and patted Sherlock on the shoulder one by one, their expressions remarkably uniform.

The three scoundrels all acted like they were asking for help without ever saying thank you. Of course, if there hadn't been so much schadenfreude in their eyes when they looked at Sherlock, he might actually have been a little happier.

After patting Sherlock on the shoulder, the three Seafaring Generals escorted Gandalf toward the ship's kitchen, not forgetting to bring Doro and Lilith along as well.

Sherlock was left standing alone, looking at the empty living room, the three fishing rods on the floor, and the fish tank, feeling like crying.

"What the hell is this?!"

Chapter 406 On Fishing: From Beginner to Obsessive

What Sherlock didn't know was that he had been tricked! Yes, tricked by Vivienne Westwood, Gandalf, and the three Seafood Generals.

The whole thing started with just three boring days on the voyage!

Because of the three days of utterly boring voyage, which was completely devoid of interest except for bathing and eating, the people on the spaceship really couldn't stand that lonely life.

Aside from green leaves, what they probably wanted to see most during that period was some living creatures, or even just to look at them.

In addition, the three seafood admirals always talked about the fun they had fishing while sailing, and Flower Sister and Gandalf were gradually influenced by them.

The thought of enduring such boredom on the road ahead was unbearable for everyone present.

This led to this scheme.

In reality, it was just a bad idea that came up because these people saw that Sherlock had already completed the modification of the spaceship and were too embarrassed to ask him to modify it again.

As it turns out, the results were quite good.

Sherlock spent two days painstakingly adding a 'fish pond' to the living room.

Yes, Sherlock really did build a fishpond in the spaceship's living room! Right under those six orange trees!

Since it was an added feature, Sherlock didn't have any better ideas. He could only use spatial expansion technology to create a flowing pool under the six orange trees, and incidentally, he also installed a filtration system and a protective system.

As long as the spaceship is in manual mode, glass will appear above the fishpond to seal it off completely, and it will not open again until it enters autopilot mode.

This arrangement not only facilitates daily activities, allowing Sister Hua to feed the fish and the three seafood generals to go fishing, but also ensures the humidity inside the spaceship, so there's no need to worry about water spilling out during intense piloting.

The only problem is that after adding this fishpond, the six orange trees paired with the flowing fishpond below them look a bit like the survival mode in Minecraft.

Indeed, the fishpond Sherlock referred to was a canal shaped like the Chinese character "目" (eye) that was dug under two rows of orange trees, each row consisting of three trees. Although the canal was actually quite large inside due to alchemy, it did not appear so from the outside.

To fulfill Sister Hua's wish to feed the fish, Sherlock even added an extra section to the U-shaped water channel near the living room, making it easier for Sister Hua to feed the fish.

It's a bit ugly, but at least its functionality isn't bad.

Thanks to Sherlock's hard work, the group happily went to Light Healing Star and bought a lot of fish fry, which they then threw into the irrigation ditch.

On the contrary, Sherlock, looking at the harmonious crowd, always had a feeling that he had been tricked but could not find any evidence.

However, after the three seafood masters quickly demonstrated their culinary skills by preparing 108 different ways to cook a single fish, Sherlock decisively abandoned the idea of ​​finding evidence and decided to simply build a fishpond for his stomach so that he could always eat fresh fish.

The only problem is that, despite understanding that the Seafood Generals' territory, which is almost 90 percent ocean, is rich in seafood and that the Seafood Generals are incredibly skilled at cooking seafood.

But isn't it a bit of a nightmare to let seafood cook seafood?

Seeing the three seafood generals' enthusiastic expressions, Sherlock ultimately swallowed this joke that could only be described as hellish.

The group spent two more days wandering around Guangyu Star, buying a lot of small toys, local specialties, and food supplies before finally embarking on their journey home.

To be honest, after this shopping trip to the planet Light Healer, the interior of this spaceship is no longer just cold steel.

Sherlock and Doro took great care of the tree that looked like an orange tree, especially Doro, who would happily go there every day to fertilize and prune it.

The three seafood giants, on the other hand, bask in the sun and fish, living an incredibly idyllic life.

Hua Jie, on the other hand, was engrossed in the green plants and fish fry she had bought. She was always pruning the plants or feeding the fish, or quietly lying on the deck chair reading the books Gandalf had bought, occasionally checking on the spaceship's route.

Gandalf also found his own fun, teaching Lilith her own charm magic in an attempt to steer her charm magic back on track, while also finding amusement in the book.

As for Sherlock, he was far too active.

Playing games, reading novels, and comics with Doro, occasionally showing off your culinary skills in the kitchen to improve our lives, taking a bath when you're tired, or at the very least helping Doro take care of the orange tree, or sunbathing with the three seafood generals.

However, Sherlock soon began to feel somewhat bored with this routine of eating and sleeping all day long, with his eyes open only for playing.
