Chapter 219 - Sol Three Hundred and Thirty-Two, Come Out (2/2)
“What material is it made of?” Tang Yue asked. “What’s its origins?”
“Based on analytical spectroscopy, it’s main components are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. It’s mostly made up of hydrogen, and has almost equal amounts of oxygen and carbon,” Tomcat replied. “There are also extremely tiny amounts of sodium and sulfur.”
“Speak human.”
“Sugar,” Tomcat said. “It’s mainly made up of sugar, a type of carbohydrate.”
“Sugar?” Tang Yue was alarmed as he subconsciously asked, “You mean this thing can be eaten?”
“Eat? Why is the only thing on your mind eating?” Tomcat shot a glance at him. “This is cellulose, a type of saccharide. It’s the main component of wood from plants. Would you eat tree bark? In common parlance…”
Tomcat pulled out a used piece of paper from under the table, waved it and smacked it beside the envelope.
“Both of them are made of identical materials. There’s almost no difference. Cellulose is the main component of pulp… This envelope is the most commonly seen and most ordinary paper envelope on Earth. There aren’t any viruses or radiation. Nor is it antimatter.”
Tang Yue was somewhat surprised.
He had just encountered the second most bizarre encounter in human history. The first was when Earth vanished.
Therefore, Tang Yue was already mentally prepared. Regardless of how strange and crazy it was, he wouldn’t be surprised. However, Tomcat was now telling him that it was just a very ordinary envelope, no different from the paper-based envelopes he had seen back on Earth.
“Identical to the envelopes on Earth?”
“Yes.” Tomcat nodded.
He was taken aback as he hurriedly jumped up. He didn’t even care that he had knocked down a chair.
“Tang Yue?”
Tang Yue ignored Tomcat as he pushed open the airlock’s hatch and staggered as he charged out.
“Tang Yue! Tang Yue!” Tomcat grabbed the envelope and ran out.
Tang Yue was wearing the heavy Radiant Armor as he pushed open the hatch. As he stood in front of Kunlun Station, panting. He faced the pitch-black desert and the starry sky above the horizon.
“Hey—!”
Tang Yue took a deep breath and roared.
“Come out—! Come out—!
“I know you are there—! Come out—! F*cking come on out—!”
Tang Yue shouted hysterically.
“Come out—! I’ve found you! Don’t f*cking hide! Come out—! I beg you… I beg you to come out…
“Please… I beg you…”
Tomcat stood inside the airlock, looking at the man desperately shouting, trying hard to transmit his voice to the whole world. But his shouts didn’t go far before being drowned out by the thin, cold air. Tang Yue slowly bent his back, his face flushed red as he gasped for breath. Finally, he sat on the hatch’s sill.
“Please… I beg you…”
Tang Yue muttered to himself as tears streamed down.
Tomcat sighed before walking over. It patted his shoulder and handed him the envelope.
Tang Yue turned his head over.
“Open it… Whatever is inside is probably for you.”
