In the end, I skipped class. It was inevitable; taking a loli-like unidentified creature to class was bound to draw attention. Moreover, I optimistically estimated that my severely menopausal homeroom teacher would surely seize the opportunity to educate me for half an hour. She could likely elevate the discussion from sociology to the heights of human moral indices. But leaving this suspected dangerous entity aside... According to most movies and novels, the only outcome would be a trail of troubles following me, and by the time I got back home from school, I might be pinned down by a group of guys in black suits and sunglasses, and then some guy with a black mouth and white teeth would pull out a mechanical pencil and shout at me, "Eggplant!" ...After comprehensive analysis, skipping class was the best choice—besides, wasn't I feeling a bit unwell? Completely reasonable, completely reasonable! My sister had already gone to work, and now onlyPandoraand I were at home.I needed to seize the time to complete the common sense education of this unknown life form. "Alright, remember, your name is nowPan Lili," I repeated once again, "You are my long-lost sister, and unless there are no outsiders present, you are absolutely not allowed to mention anything about the Xiling Empire, which I don't even know where it is in the universe. Alright, let me take another look at the mark on your arm—very good, the construct life is indeed powerful, it can do this, so just remember not to show any flaws in front of my sister." "Yes,...Brother.

Pandora seemed not very accustomed to this new title and hesitated before speaking out. "This is my plan! Let Pandora pretend to be my long-lost sister. After all, I have been an orphan adopted since childhood, and no one knows my origin. In this way, it won't seem strange to suddenly have an additional sister... Eh, probably no one will think it strange. But why do I always feel that there is still something wrong? I frowned and looked Pandora up and down who had already changed into a shabby dress. I always felt that there was something wrong, but when it came to pointing out specifically what was wrong, I couldn't say it... Uh, I've found it... 'Pan... Lily, can't you smile?' This is the crux of the problem!"

It is only now that I remember that the little girl in front of me hasn't smiled since the moment we met. Not only has she not smiled, but it would be more accurate to say that she hasn't shown any expression at all. She seems like an exquisite doll, and moreover, aside from the initial introduction to the situation regarding the Helian Empire when she spoke quite a bit, she has been extremely economical with words, astonishingly reticent. Such a personality should not appear in a girl who is only fourteen years old.

The above are still minor issues. After all, an extremely introverted personality can be explained away with a corresponding life experience. The more critical issue is another aspect—Pandora's eyes!

Completely unfocused, they are merely decorative (although they have extensively imitated the human body structure, Pandora's perception of the external world is somewhat different from humans, at least her vision does not rely on such a rudimentary organ as the eye).

Such eyes would undoubtedly be the focus of attention wherever they went. Maybe...

The day passed quickly, and during that time, I did my best to explain human lifestyles to Pandora. As for whether she could remember, I wasn't worried at all. During this period, I also learned more about the Hiling Empire from Pandora, who was economical with words, including the 99.999999... percent of instruction sets that were unusable, which was what I cared most about.

According to Pandora's explanation, because the nearest void node was too far away, all the instruction information she sent had to travel a considerable distance before reaching the nearest Hiling colony. This distance was so vast that by the time the signal arrived, it had attenuated to the point where it was indistinguishable from the cosmic microwave background radiation. Such signals could only be considered noise. As for the long-range fire support I triggered yesterday morning, it was a very rare coincidence, and it could only be said that my brain performed exceptionally well at that moment.

Since these principles belonged to fields I didn't understand, I decided to just take her word for it.

"I can be used as an emergency Hiling terminal," Pandora said, "but through my enhancement, less than ten percent of the vague instructions can be forwarded, and the conditions for forwarding will be very harsh. Would you like to establish a Hiling outpost on this planet? After establishing the base, you can wage war at any time and turn this world into a new frontier of the Empire."

"Never mind," I said, refusing the seemingly tempting suggestion while sweating coldly, "I have no plans to conquer the world." What a joke, conquering the world? Ruling over humanity? Do they think this is a movie or a novel, just for fun? What's the use of ruling the world when I can't even control someone as simple as Qianqian... Besides, those messy instructions are mostly war commands, but how could I possibly use those mass destruction weapons against humans? Therefore, those instruction sets are completely useless to me, and building such a base is purely a waste. Well, at least that's what I think. What, who said I could use those things to deal with some petty thieves and show off in front of girls? Are you stupid? Would you fire the Xiling directional celestial annihilation cannon just because someone touches you? You should know that a hyperspace fire support system is definitely not suitable for showing off. For a specific reason, you can imagine the difficulty of using an atomic bomb to barbecue kebabs... "Brother, a carbon-based life form is moving towards here, please confirm the identity of the other party." "It's probably sister coming back," I said, looking at the clock on the wall, "Also, Lily, don't speak in this way in the future, you must try to make people feel that you are human." I was instructing Pandora when the sound of the door opening came. "I'm back," my sister said, looking a bit tired, followed by a somewhat surprised voice: "Hmm? Ah Jun, who is this child?"

"This is Pan Lili," I gently pushed Pandora forward, trying my best to appear excited, "She is my sister!" "Sister?" My sister was taken aback, and the next moment she thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "You're saying she's your sister? Your biological sister?" "Yes," I said with a smile, "I thought all my original family members were no longer in this world, but unexpectedly, I have another sister." "Hello." Pandora nodded slightly, greeting us with her uniquely emotionless tone. My sister frowned, seemingly bothered by Pandora's indifferent reaction. Seeing this, I immediately explained, "Lili didn't have a good life before, and... she has experienced some unpleasant things, so her personality is a bit quirky."

At that moment, my sister finally noticed the tattered clothes on Pandora and immediately a trace of sympathy appeared in her eyes, but the doubtful gaze still hadn't completely vanished. I knew what she was suspicious of. When I was brought back, I was less than a year old and couldn't possibly have any memory of my family, let alone this sister who looked like she hadn't been born at that time. My sister was worried that I had been deceived. I smiled slightly, pulled Pandora's arm, and rolled up the sleeve of her right hand. A birthmark, only the size of a fingernail and roughly triangular-shaped - there was an identical mark on the same place on my arm. 'This seems to be a genetic trait of our family, not a birthmark, but a mark that every direct blood relative has. Moreover, although it sounds somewhat mysterious, there seems to be some kind of connection between Lily and me, and I am completely certain that she is my biological sister.' Thank heavens my sister was biologically clueless, otherwise she would have quickly seen through my clumsy lie - could there be such a strange genetic trait in the world? Fortunately, my sister had never passed biology since childhood, so she immediately believed it almost completely. At the same time, she also noticed something unusual about Pandora's eyes. 'Ah Jun, why are this child's eyes...' I showed a pitying expression as I stroked Pandora's hair and said, 'Didn't I say it before?'

She had experienced some unpleasant things, and since then, she had lost her sight, and her personality had changed into this... "Poor little sister..." Sister's voice already carried a sob, she bent down and embraced the expressionless Pandora into her arms, "Where do you live now? If possible, you can move in with us, I will take care of you like a real sister..." The sister, already overwhelmed with sympathy, completely ignored why I could understand this sister's past so well in just one day. Sorry, sis, I can only keep it from you for now... Speaking of which, to be able to hide it with such a simple excuse, sister, your trust in your brother is really touching... so touching that I'm at a loss for words!
