In the end, the sense of responsibility outweighs one's own willfulness.

"Crown, I'm sorry, I won't go to the Ark! I, I don't want to cause trouble for the commander..."

"Not going? It doesn't matter. Since it's a request made by our people, let's go back."

"Eh? Are you going back now? Miss, Marianne, wait a minute, look ahead, who is that person?"

Zhong Ming suddenly shouted and pointed to the hill ahead.

Under the moonlight.

A figure that Marianne had been haunting was standing alone on a hill not far away. He sat there, quietly raising his head, bathing in the warm moonlight that was pouring down from above his head.

It may be a coincidence arranged by fate, or it may be an inevitability of telepathy.

As he once said to Marianne, as long as you keep thinking about it, there will be a response.

Chapter 290: The excitement of roasting potatoes.

"The moon is so beautiful tonight."

Early in the morning.

Green sat on the hill, supporting himself with his hands on the ground, leaning back and looking up at the moon above his head.

Even after a century of vicissitudes, the moon still hangs in the sky as always, even though few people can see its gentle light in this era.

"Commander, aren't we going back?"

Rabbi stood on a rock beside him, gazing at the surrounding scenery below the hill.

This kind of open place is quite dangerous. If Letcher happens to pass by nearby, he will probably discover their location immediately.

Green raised a finger and said confidently, "Don't worry, Rabbi, there shouldn't be any Letchers around here."

"Not to mention that this area is an area that Ark often cleans. Secondly, I've previously researched the habits of Letchers on Dr. Letcher's blog. Generally speaking, they're less active at night than during the day, so there's no need to worry too much."

"Just let me enjoy the moon for a while longer."

"Looking at the moon, I feel a little empty inside. I want to look at it a few more times."

Rabbi sighed.

Her commander was so willful, but what could she do?

Men, you have to give them some time to themselves. If you push them too hard, asking them to know everything, it will only make them irritable. At least Rabbi respects other people's time for self-reflection.

"Then I'll just stand guard nearby."

Rabbi stepped on a rock.

She was just about to release a drone to monitor the surrounding environment.

But soon, a dark shadow slowly approaching from the bottom of the hill caught her attention.

"Ok?"

"Commander... look, what is that?"

"Let me see, is that a horse?"

Green looked in the direction of Rabi's finger, and saw that it was indeed a horse running towards the mountain.

It ran like a tornado, and any obstacles along the way would be crushed to pieces under its mechanical iron hooves.

In less than a few seconds, the tornado arrived at the hill with the three uninvited guests on its back.

Before Green could say anything, Marian jumped off the horse and threw herself into his arms, sobbing loudly: "Commander, Zhi Hei Gan! So you are here! Woo... I really missed you!"

"Marian?"

I never thought we would meet again at this moment.

Green stroked Marian's silver-gray hair and let her tears wet his clothes.

Over the past few months, he had sent many messages to Marianne, but the signal in the kingdom was really bad, and the messages seemed to have fallen into the sea after being sent, and there was no news from then on.

But even if there is no signal, it cannot stop her determination to find herself.

"Commander, you haven't come to see me for two months and twenty-three days. I'm really scared... I'm afraid you don't want me anymore."

Marianne rubbed his clothes gently and sniffed his scent. She was still as clingy as before and didn't want to let go for a moment.

"I'm sorry, Marianne."

"There's been some stuff to deal with these days."

Green gently stroked her soft hair and whispered comfortingly in her ear: "Wait a little longer. I promise you, we will be able to take you to my own base soon."

"Ok!"

"I will wait for you, Commander, I will!"

Marianne nodded vigorously.

"Yeah, me too. By the way, didn't you receive any of the messages I sent you these days?"

"The signal in the Kingdom is so bad. I can't receive anything, can't open web pages, and can't enter group chats."

Speaking of the infrastructure of the Crown Kingdom.

Marian put on a crying face and complained: "I asked Zhong Ming, and she said that we need to build a facility called a signal tower on the ground to get a signal, but no one in the kingdom knows how to build that kind of thing, so we...

There has been no signal at all."

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean no one can make it? What our kingdom lacks the least is talent, okay, Marianne, look at what you're saying!"

When Zhong Ming heard Marian's criticism of her, she immediately shouted, "It's just a signal tower. Don't underestimate the wisdom of a minister like me!"

"Just give me some parts and tools, and I can build you a fighter jet, not to mention a signal tower!"

"Haha, Miss Zhong Ming, and the respected King, Miss Crown, how have you been recently?"

Green turned around and greeted the two white knights.

"What do you think? You've got a kid here who keeps yelling about going back to the Ark. It's going to be a headache for the young lady and me, you know?!"

Zhong Ming raised a finger and started complaining again.

"Also, although I don't mean to complain in front of the parents, Marian is really weird!"

"It's okay that she likes to eat random things, after all, spiders, centipedes and other insects are considered protein, but after eating, she also drinks alcohol, searches for strange books to read, and then she has to stare at her phone all night long."

"How on earth do you educate Marian?!"

"If I hadn't taught her these days, she might have become a problem child!"

"I'm sorry for all the hard work you've done these days. To show my gratitude, do you need any help? If the kingdom needs supplies, I can ship some from the outpost to help you repair your infrastructure."

Green apologized to Zhong Ming.

"Well, I have no objection, but we have to ask our young lady's opinion."

Zhong Ming coughed, then politely asked the Crown, "Miss, this citizen from the Ark is ready to give you a gift. Are you willing to accept it?"

"Ahem, since it's a gift, I'll accept it."

"By the way, is there a baked potato in the gift? I've been tired of apples lately, and I'm kind of craving that."

The crown licked the corner of his mouth. Life in the kingdom was still quite hard compared to that in the Ark. After all, the population was too small and no one was an expert in farming.

Most of the time, Zhong Ming and Huang Guan had to go to the ground to scavenge and dig for resources. Occasionally, when they saw Nikki in trouble, they would help her.

Because the Crowns always wore white shirts and traveled around on a stern mechanical warhorse, over time, they were also given the name "White Knights" by the other pilgrims and Nikki of the Ark.

only……

Although the name sounds serious, they are actually just two people who pick up garbage to eat.

When Zhong Ming heard that his young lady was a little greedy again, he glared at Green and said, "Hey, you guy, did you hear that? My young lady wants to eat baked potatoes now! Hurry up and get her one!"

"Where are we going to find potatoes in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere? And we're talking about supplies, what does this have to do with potatoes?"

Rabbi interjected, looking speechless.

"It's okay, Rabbi. Potatoes grow very easily and are practically everywhere."

Green glanced around and pointed to a green plant swaying in the moonlight: "Marian, go dig it out."

"Yes!"

Marianne pulled hard.

She pulled up two potatoes covered in mud by the roots and rolled them around on the ground a few times.

Marian carefully picked up two potatoes and looked at them with great joy. "Wow, they really are potatoes! Commander, you're amazing! How did you find them?"

"I learned some farming knowledge from Honglian before, and Cecil also taught me a lot during the time I was hanging out in Eden Garden."

"I still remember Cecil saying before that the park relied on potatoes to get through the most difficult period when it was first starting out. There was no other way, because this plant is so easy to grow."

Green grabbed a potato from Marian's hand, pinched it in his palm and tossed it.

"I don't recommend eating too many wild potatoes because they contain solanine. If they're not cooked thoroughly, they can cause headaches, diarrhea, convulsions, and coma. But that's not a problem. Just cook them thoroughly."

Green didn't think too much about it.

He picked up some dead branches, made a fire on the ground, and roasted the potatoes on the ground with the branches for a while.

After Huang Guan and Zhong Ming looked at each other, they sat down with their saliva dripping from their mouths, muttering from time to time.

"What do you think of him, miss?"

"Hmm? Who are you talking about, Zhong Ming?"

"Of course it was him. By the way, what was his name? I think it was Green, miss?"

"Hmm? Uh... that should be the name."

"So what do you think of him, miss?"

"I think he's quite good. He seems to be a very smart and knowledgeable person. Especially when it comes to finding potatoes, he's really good."

Crown praised softly.

"Well, if you put it that way, then he's also a reserve soldier for our kingdom's citizens. But before that, let's have some baked potatoes, right?"

After Zhong Ming made up his mind, he prepared to recruit Green.

But as soon as she turned around, she saw Crown taking out a knife and fork and arranging the dish in front of her in a serious manner.

She looked so dignified as if she was preparing to have a meal that even Rabbi couldn't help but glance at her.

"Excuse me, Miss Crown, but what are you doing with your knife and fork?"

"This isn't a fancy restaurant. You can eat potatoes with your hands."

Rabbi complained with a hint of suspicion, "Also, I just realized that you guys lack common sense."

"You can't light a fire on the ground, Commander, put it out quickly!"

"Ah? But my potatoes..."

"Never mind the potatoes. You won't lose a piece of meat if you skip a bite."

"No, it's almost done, how can we give up halfway? If Letcher comes, we can just run away!"

Zhong Ming's old face turned red, and he quickly started a crosstalk with Huang Guan, trying to cover up the fact that Miss Huang Guan was a girl without common sense.

"Ahem, and don't be too proud!"

"The reason Miss asked you to roast potatoes was simply to test your common sense, to prevent you from encountering such a situation on Earth in the future. And since you were able to understand Miss's good intentions, it proves that you are people of great wisdom."

"All in all, you passed! Miss, don't you agree?"

"Eh? Yeah, that's right!"

Crown quickly put on an embarrassed expression, trying to get away with it.

"Haha... I really don't know what to say. Anyway, let's finish roasting the potatoes quickly."

Wait until the potatoes are baked.

Green handed his carefully baked gift to Zhong Ming, and left the other potato to Marian.
