Chapter 389

"Miss Ruan Mei, what do you think I should give Luo Feng as a gift?"

Screwllum asked.

"That is something you will have to consider yourself."

"I imagine that you, who possess the resources of an entire planet, will certainly be able to come up with something Luo Feng is interested in."

"Then, see you at the space station, Screwllum."

After Miss Ruan Mei finished speaking, she also hung up the communication.

"A gift, huh..."

Screwllum turned his head to look at the collectibles in his room, and his gaze slowly landed on the "Mechanical Cuckoo Clock," a Curio once given to him by the IPC.

"I wonder if Lord Luo Feng will like this gift."

Screwllum muttered to himself.

The Mechanical Cuckoo Clock, which symbolized the friendship of the IPC, was sent by him, and it could just represent his friendship toward Luo Feng.

Thinking of this, Screwllum walked forward and picked up the Mechanical Cuckoo Clock.

………………

Herta Space Station.

Aboard Himeko's Astral Express.

"Lord Luo Feng, the coffee is brewed; please enjoy."

Himeko walked over with a tray of coffee, a smile on her face.

Old Yang, Dan Heng, March 7th, and the others saw this, and their expressions instantly became extremely grim.

"Mm, it actually smells quite fragrant."

Luo Feng picked up a cup of coffee and laughed.

That said, when he saw the black mud-like substance in the coffee cup, Luo Feng still felt a bit ashamed in his heart.

"Is this really a drink? Isn't it some kind of porridge-like substance?"

Signora looked at the black mud in the cup and said with a frown.

For some reason, Signora felt her instincts urging her to stay away from Himeko's coffee.

"What are you saying? This is clearly coffee; how could it be black mud?"

"Himeko went to a lot of trouble to bring this coffee over; don't waste it, Signora."

Luo Feng said meaningfully.

Signora: "..."

"Thank you for the compliment; it would be even better if not just the smell, but the taste also satisfied you."

Himeko laughed.

Luo Feng nodded slightly, and under the gazes of March 7th, Signora, and the others, he lifted the cup and took a small sip.

In an instant, an indescribable taste rushed straight to Luo Feng's taste buds.

"Hiss... this is something else."

Luo Feng raised an eyebrow and exclaimed.

March 7th: "Is it... not to your liking?"

Signora: "Lord Luo Feng, are you alright?"

Himeko: "Does Lord Luo Feng not like the taste of the coffee?"

Luo Feng shook his head with a smile and said:

"How could that be? I think this coffee is quite good."

"Signora, Doctor, Nahida, Cloud Retainer, you can drink it with peace of mind."

As if to prove what he had said,

Luo Feng tilted his head back and poured the coffee in the cup into his mouth.

However, no one noticed that the coffee did not flow into Luo Feng's stomach.

Instead, it flowed into a small spatial portal in Luo Feng's mouth.

At the same time, somewhere outside the space station.

A similarly small spatial portal appeared out of thin air.

Some black mud-like substance flowed out from it.

"Y-you drank it all in one go?!"

March 7th widened her eyes, looking at everything before her in disbelief.

Luo Feng smiled and placed the coffee cup on the tray Himeko was holding.

Everyone looked closely and saw only some residual coffee stains inside.

"Truly amazing."

Dan Heng exclaimed sincerely.

"As expected of Lord Luo Feng; it inspires reverence."

Old Yang sighed.

Pom-Pom nodded in agreement.

As for Himeko, she revealed an even more brilliant smile.

"Aren't you all going to taste it?"

"Don't waste Himeko's good intentions."

Luo Feng turned his head and looked at the Doctor, Signora, and the others with a serious expression.

The Doctor, Signora, Cloud Retainer, and Nahida, who were each holding a coffee cup, looked at each other.

Although Luo Feng had drunk the coffee, the reactions of Old Yang and the others let them know that this coffee was not ordinary.

But even so, since Luo Feng, the conductor of the train, had already drunk the coffee,

they couldn't find a reason not to drink the coffee in their cups.

The four of them, including the Doctor and Signora, each lifted their coffee cups and took a sip.

The next moment, the faces of the four of them turned quite conflicted all at once.

Luo Feng: "What's wrong? Is it not good?"

Cloud Retainer: "I... I feel like my esophagus has been injured."

Signora: "Lord Luo Feng, is this really not an item used for interrogation?"

Doctor: "It feels like some kind of mysterious chemical research reagent."

Nahida: "..."

Luo Feng: "So, you all think my taste is very poor, huh?"

Hearing this, the Doctor was startled in his heart.

He was currently planning to build a good relationship with Luo Feng so that he could obtain an opportunity to get an antimatter engine from him later.

At this time, he didn't want Luo Feng to look down on him because of this coffee.

Thinking of this, the Doctor directly picked up the coffee cup and drank the "black mud" in the cup into his stomach in one gulp.

Seeing this, the others couldn't help but look at each other.

Immediately, as if they had made some kind of decision, they followed the Doctor's example and drank the coffee in their cups in one go.

Seeing the four of them perform such an action, Luo Feng felt surprised and curious in his heart.

"How does it feel?"

Luo Feng asked with interest.

Nahida, Cloud Retainer, and Signora stood in place in silence, opened their mouths, but couldn't say anything.

The Doctor, however, shrugged his shoulders and said with feigned ease: "Just as I said earlier, the taste is not much different from some reagents I've tinkered with before."

Luo Feng raised an eyebrow: "Is that so? It seems you are quite suited to drinking Himeko's coffee. How about another cup? There happens to be some left over here."

The Doctor's body shook, and he subconsciously wanted to refuse, but his reason forced him to swallow the words that had reached his throat.

By this time, Luo Feng had already handed another cup of coffee to the Doctor.

The Doctor twitched the corners of his mouth; although he wanted to refuse, looking at Luo Feng's smiling face, he eventually took the coffee and drank it in one gulp.

Then, another cup of coffee was handed to the Doctor.

………………

"Wow, are they drunk?"
