      Chapter 18 Cover
      by Salted Fish — Today, I tentatively initiated a conversation beyond our usual greetings. Dan Ning didn't refuse, so we discussed several possible types of contact between extraterrestrial life and humans. At the end of our discussion, I asked him: "If an alien confessed their love to you, would you accept it?" "An alien confessing to me? Aliens wouldn't even look at someone like me. Scholar King, stop teasing me." He laughed and shook his head in front of the screen. I really wanted to tell him this wasn't a…

      Chapter 17 Cover
      by Salted Fish — Once I stopped obsessing over the reasons and timing, "developing romantic feelings for Dan Ning" became remarkably easy to accept. After months of intimate contact, I'd already gained considerable understanding of his personality and worldview. I enjoyed his care, observed his interactions with others, even analyzed every message he'd left online—this individual had experienced and was still experiencing some unpleasant things, yet his attitude remained consistently positive. Whether judged by…

      Chapter 16 Cover
      by Salted Fish — I think I might actually be in love. In the Starfarer profession, members of my species are rare. In fact, according to The Alliance's career guidance, my racial traits aren't particularly suited for this line of work. While the Genetic Revolution optimized physiological functions, it also drove our entire species to pursue mental communion—to put it in Earth's terms, the race I belong to is an exceedingly romantic one. Intelligent lifeforms from other planets once said, "All cross-planetary,…

      Chapter 15 Cover
      by Salted Fish — Workday. Dan Ning's outing today didn't make me feel agitated. Compared to the situation a day ago, the only difference between the two instances was that this time, I clearly knew the reason and purpose behind his trip. The Biocomputer's deduction hadn't yielded any results yet, but I already had a rather ominous premonition. There was a problem with the extent of my concern for Dan Ning. The sheltered life I led meant that my exposure to Earth's living beings was extremely limited. Within…

      Chapter 14 Cover
      by Salted Fish — Day off. Dan Ning went out. The temperature today was extremely high, and even inside the nest, the heat was palpable. I could say with certainty that this kind of weather was absolutely unsuitable for humans to be walking around outside. I didn't know where Dan Ning had gone—after answering a phone call, he hurriedly left the house. And ever since he left, I had been in an indescribable state of restlessness, completely unable to relax or fully process the newly updated information. This…

      Chapter 13 Cover
      by Salted Fish — I've figured out the reason for the misunderstanding. After logging into my account today, several messages from strangers led me to the root of the problem. These messages, laden with strong sexual connotations, clearly pointed out my oversight: the Earthly numerical expression of my homeworld ID isn't merely a length value as I originally thought—in this civilization, it carries an additional layer of sexual implication. This is the first time I've encountered a culture that flaunts external…

      Chapter 12 Cover
      by Salted Fish — My fondness for Dan Ning as an individual has given me many more concerns. I cannot reveal my identity to him, nor can I simply change from a "cat" into his own species and continue enjoying his protection. The dominant species maintains strong vigilance against unfamiliar members of their own kind. If I were to alter my mimetic form to "human" and appear in Dan Ning's home, according to projections, the most logical outcome would be Dan Ning calling the police. I'm not ready to exit his life just…

      Chapter 11 Cover
      by Salted Fish — Dan Ning was not someone who enjoyed idle conversation. After briefly discussing his relationship issues, he never brought up the topic again. From the perspective of a Starfarer, everything that happened between him and that dominant species male named "Zhao Lin" was undoubtedly worthy of study. However, I had no intention of prying into his private matters. Dan Ning continued to take care of me as usual. Out of respect and gratitude toward him, I didn't want to dissect his psychological…

      Chapter 8 Cover
      by Salted Fish — To minimize unnecessary energy consumption, log recording has been suspended. Universal Translator Module activated. Telepathy activated. Now I can patiently accumulate the energy required for Biocomputer restructuring. There have been no particularly noteworthy events during the past period. Currently, my shelter provider has not yet returned from work. Based on observations summarized over this period, he will remain in the nest for two days after returning today—meaning I will have…

      Chapter 7 Cover
      by Salted Fish — Yesterday's conflict did not negatively impact the relationship between my shelter provider and me. In fact, I feel our relationship has grown even more harmonious. Today, the shelter provider brought back many items of unclear purpose: some could be assembled into a tall perch, with hemp ropes wrapped around the pillar-like supports that seemed perfect for sharpening the claws of my mimetic form; others were slender rod-like objects with feathers and metal bells at the top, though I haven't yet figured…
