After another plane transfer and Tesla losing all her chocolates, the plane finally arrived at its destination: Billings.
Just like the scene where Einstein and Tesla picked up the plane at the airport a year ago, only this time, the two parties have exchanged identities.
After some greetings and exchanges, Planck took a group of people to a restaurant near the airport for dinner.
"What is this?" Tesla stared at a plate of fried meatballs on the dining table with a curious look.
"Rocky Mountain oysters." The 17-year-old older sister smiled mischievously.
Schrödinger: ...
Einstein sighed silently: "The professor likes to eat this, I don't know if you'll get used to it."
After speaking, Schrödinger turned her head away.
"They're just oysters, it's not like I haven't eaten them before, although, the oyster balls are quite strange." Tesla indifferently picked up a meatball and brought it to her mouth as if it were a dessert.
"Mmm…"
Is something wrong? Tesla seems to have finally reacted, the sensation when eating was a bit strange, and after chewing there was an inexplicable sense of weirdness. Rubbery texture similar to gum, completely different from the taste of seafood.
Although it's not unpleasant, the confusion on Tesla's face was evident.
"Latest news: there are no oysters in the Rocky Mountains." A certain ghost was very considerate and did some popular science.
"?" Tesla tilted her head, not understanding what Tian Shi meant at all.
It seems that Tesla's knowledge base has absolutely nothing to do with "Rocky Mountain oysters."
"Rocky Mountain oysters is a pretentious name." After seeing Tesla swallow the "ball" completely, the wicked green-haired older sister explained.
"As you know, this is a mountainous area. Before, when preservation technology was outdated, cowboys couldn't eat real oysters. So, partly for convenience and partly for fun, they called this food, which wasn't often eaten on the coast, oysters."
"What?"
"Well... a more common name is, well, we call them 'testicles' in biology."
"Rocky Mountain oysters are generally fried bull testicles." Tian Shi added: "Although it sounds a bit disgusting, the nutritional value is still good."
"…Um, didn't I hear clearly?"
"Testicle" Planck repeated it with a smile, as if teaching a student who wasn't paying attention in class. "And it's still from a calf." Einstein and Schrödinger shrugged, apparently already knowing what a so-called Rocky Mountain oyster was.
And Tesla, who ate just one, the whole person's face turned green.
Very pitiful.

"In other words, you met someone from headquarters when you arrived here?" After a good meal and some drinks, Planck confirmed with Einstein.
Finn and Welt were sent to arrange a hotel, so now the only ones left were family members, and many things could be said directly.
"That's right, Bishop Otto sent us a Dead Sea Scroll."
"This…" [Otto's things aren't easy to get.] Tian Shi held the drunk Tesla with one hand and typed what he wanted to say on the typewriter.
None of them are named Kallen, why do they think they can get something from Otto for free?
[The gift given by Schicksal has already been secretly marked with a price, and the gift given by Otto can cost ten times more when returning it.]
"Just as I thought." Speaking of things related to Otto, Planck didn't dare to take anything lightly.
"Mr. Tian Shi, have you ever tried to possess that Dead Sea Scroll?"
[I tried it, something has changed, I can't say what it is.]
What is recorded in the Dead Sea Scrolls is the transformation formula of Honkai Energy from the pre-civilization, that is, the formula for the core function of the Throne of the Moon.
It can be said that it is the highest technology of the previous civilization in the study of collapse. However, because it is too advanced, even though Tian Shi possessed it once, he didn't understand it.
"By possessing the pen, can we restore the original records?" Tian Shi's ability when possessing a pen has the ability to restore words.[I think so, as long as there is a possibility]
"There are always opportunities," Planck smiled, "as long as the Bishop wants us to study the previous formula." They didn't have any good way to deal with Otto, but fortunately, Tian Shi's existence prevented them from being led by Otto's nose all the time.
"Forget it, let's talk about something fun." The green-haired "beautiful girl" waved her hand first and then showed a playful expression on her face: "For example, would you let Mr. Tian Shi sleep in the same room as me today?"
"Don't even think about it," Einstein refused without hesitation: "As an elder, be a little reserved as an elder."
"Wow, wow, wow... Lieserl, honey, you're exaggerating. I'm so sad! I wanted to tell you something good." Planck pretended to cry.
It's really exaggerated.
Whether it's pretending to cry or calling herself "sister." Well, considering that she didn't seem to be more than twenty-five or twenty-six years old, Tian Shi decided to pretend he didn't hear anything.
"According to the cohabitation system, today is my turn."
"Professor, pretending to be cute is really boring." Einstein was not moved by her teacher's cuteness: "Besides, the cohabitation system in Laboratory 42 expired a long time ago." Indeed, Einstein is worthy of being raised by Planck, and Planck's tricks failed to move Einstein at all.
"There's no other way, my sister can only 'attack you at night.'" Planck suddenly struck a "shoot your heart" pose like Sailor Moon.
"Stargazing?" Einstein slightly tilted her umbrella and looked up at the sky, where the stars were shining. "Very beautiful indeed."
"Is Lieserl tempted? This is a night scene that is not available in downtown London." Planck waved her finger provocatively at her student, but then changed her words. "But everyone should sleep well tonight; tomorrow we have to get up early to go to the accident site."
"Obviously it's the professor who said this, right?" Einstein's calm face finally showed a touch of embarrassment.
"Elders should be more talkative.", Planck chuckled, "By the way, since I'm an elder, today Mr. Tian Shi..."
"I think, professor, you should discuss this with Schrödinger." Einstein pointed to Schrödinger, who had always had little presence.
At some point, Schrödinger had already reached the typewriter, and a woman and a ghost were exchanging notes silently.
Planck: ...
We can no longer keep this student.
