Chapter 2, Black Fire Project

This coastal community is rich in vegetation and boasts pleasant scenery, making it indeed an ideal place to live

Being a person is truly arduous, as every task requires dedication and effort

Guanhai Terrace is a scenic spot as well as the name of a residential community. Decades ago, a developer purchased a plot of land at Guanhai Terrace to construct more than ten high-end villas. Later, the government implemented a policy prohibiting the construction of villas in public scenic areas near the sea, which suddenly made those more than ten villas highly sought after.

An experienced veteran in the industry once said: Do not take on work at the viewing platform, for you do not know whether the one getting on the vehicle is a person or a ghost

The outstanding graduate from MIT, whose research direction is "string theory," was later selected for the "Astrophysics Laboratory"... The Fish Madman was furious about this, claiming she had gone astray, and stated that "string theory" is a grand deception of the century, wasting a lifetime of time and energy without yielding any results. Ao Ye's gaze deepened as he said: "What the Fish Madman does not know is that this is precisely the talent we need."...

Ao Ye's gaze deepened as he said: "What the Fish Madman does not know is that this is precisely the talent we need."

Ao Ye was accustomed to this and walked towards their residence, Villa No. 9, carrying his own bag

"Uncle Da, do not call me 'Your Highness', nor should you address me as 'You'. This is not Dragon King Star, and I do not care for such empty titles." Ao Ye said while walking into the house, "Just call me Ao Ye."

The taxi driver, who most enjoys chatting with people, let out a cold laugh and surprisingly refused to engage in conversation, remaining silent throughout the entire ride

The daughter of the fish madman? Did you go to America for her

Aoye patted Uncle Da's shoulder and said, "This day will surely come."

Young man, have you ever seen a ghost

If there are no "ghosts" causing a disturbance

Are there really ghosts? What do they look like? I have heard that they can even eat people

Ao Ye did not expect that he had actually spoken such philosophical words, and immediately conceded defeat.

Ao Ye threw the bag he was holding to Uncle Da and said, "Knowing that you enjoy drinking, I bought a few bottles of rare vintage whiskey..."

Ao Ye got into a taxi and said, "Driver, Binhai District, Guanhai Terrace."

I heard that the Guanhai Platform is haunted, is that true? The taxi driver began to showcase his unique skill: awkward chatting

He took a bottle of ice-cold cola from the refrigerator, opened it, and after gulping down a mouthful with great satisfaction, he said with a contented expression: "The daughter of the fish madman, Fish Xianqi"

I have two considerations for my trip to the United States. First, I want to know if she is the person I am looking for. Second, if she is indeed the person I seek, then I must ensure her safety and help her return home safely. Ao Ye's gaze turned cold as he said, "A woman who can enter the Celestial Laboratory must have some significant figures paying attention to her... Bringing such a talent back will naturally encounter some obstacles. However, those minor issues are not worth mentioning; I have already resolved them."

The black fire has not yet ignited, and the space jump has not yet been strung together

"It is indeed the case," Ao Ye said. He leaned back in the recliner, closed his eyes, emptied his mind, and engaged in aimless small talk with the taxi driver

How did you resolve it

Let her drink less alcohol. You should also drink less. Ao Ye frowned; the consumption of these two alcoholics together was astonishing. He had heard that wealthy families would bury dozens of jars of "Daughter's Red" when a girl was born, and when the daughter got married, they would dig up these jars to entertain guests, symbolizing good fortune and auspiciousness. Thus, he followed suit and buried several thousand jars, but before Ao Miaomiao could get married, those several thousand jars of "Daughter's Red" were dug up and finished by the two of them. What was even more infuriating was that after drinking the wine, they buried the empty jars back in. On one occasion, when Ao Ye went to serve guests, he discovered that the jars were actually empty.

On the contrary, the ghost fears him

"Yes, Your Highness." Uncle Da straightened his body, grinned, and said: "Was this trip to the United States relatively smooth? What kind of person requires Your Highness to personally go and extend an invitation?"

The flowers are red and the grass is green, with dense trees. Bees and butterflies dance among the flowers, while birds sing among the trees. The sea breeze is gently fragrant, and the sunlight is dazzling

It is solely because of the "haunting incidents" that most of the homeowners who purchased the villas at high prices have moved away, leaving only the Ao family still holding their ground there

This is an essential professional skill for every taxi driver; if he does not engage in a few conversations with you, it would seem as if he is not sufficiently experienced in this industry, and it would be immediately apparent that he is a novice.

It is still more comfortable to be a dragon; if you are not convinced, then fight. ... Either you eat my dragon egg, or I eat your dragon egg ...

"Oh, a mansion," the taxi driver joked, then started the engine and drove towards the destination

"Your Highness is wise." Uncle Da said with tears in his eyes and an excited expression, "If that day truly comes, we can return to Dragon King Star, kill the Black Dragon King Ao Zheng, and save the billions of dragon people. The old Dragon King's vengeance will be avenged, and he can die without regrets"

At the entrance of the courtyard, a short old man dressed in a black Tang suit with wavy hair stood at the door to greet, bowing deeply at a ninety-degree angle, and said with a sincere expression: "Your Highness, you have returned"

... ...

We wish to return to Dragon King Star. First, we need to reignite the "Black Fire" to assist us in activating the star disk. Second, we must establish space jump technology based on string theory. We can provide the coordinates of Dragon King Star, and then use artificial strings to achieve space jump through wormholes. Fish Madman can solve our energy shortage problem, while Fish Idle Chess holds promise in addressing our space jump issues

What I am saying is all facts

"Yasen Liejie, with eyes flashing like twin lights." Ao Ye responded, saying: "He does not eat people, claiming that human flesh is not tasty."

The car came to a stop at the entrance of the Guanhai Terrace villa community. After Ao Ye scanned the code to pay for the fare, the driver immediately pressed the red display sign indicating "Passenger Onboard" and quickly drove away from this dangerous area

Hehe ... ...

Of course, Ao Miaomiao argued with great confidence: I am already 200 million years old and still haven't been able to get married. Do you have the confidence to marry me off in the next few hundred or even thousand years? ... When the time comes to get married, we will open the wine, but by then, all this wine will have gone bad ...? ... Don't you often say that although we are wealthy, we absolutely cannot waste?

He is not afraid of ghosts

Thank you, Your Highness. Uncle Da cheerfully took the backpack and said: "This is just right to go with my goldfish meat. However, I dare not drink it all, otherwise, in a fit of anger, Miaomiao might just pull all my hair out. That girl’s capacity for alcohol has been increasing, and I can no longer drink her under the table."

The young man is impressive. The taxi driver couldn't help but give a thumbs up, expressing genuine admiration, and said: "This is the first time I've encountered someone who can boast even more than those of us in this profession."

I have resolved the issue with the person who identified the problem

"I have seen him." Ao Ye said. "I see him every day."

That's great. Uncle Da wiped away a tear and said happily, "What progress have we made so far?"
