Chapter 107 Mr Catfish

The next day, at around seven o'clock in the evening, he was at the landing site for spaceships. Luke had been persuaded by Jannet until she was allowed to film everything with the cameramen. 

He had Peter and his crew with him and, because the companies wanted it that way, the Top Operators. 

Luke looked at the assembled crowd, Jannet was more nervous than anyone else. He stood in front of the crowd. Smithie grinned. Luke knew that the top people in the company were all ex-military and old faces to him. 

"Since you all served." 

They chuckled.

"The delegation that's coming soon has the same status as the CEO of the corporation where each of you works. Only one difference."

"Aliens?"

Luke lit a cigarette.

"That too, then it's a monarch. If she wants, the planet will be reduced to ashes and rubble. So show yourself at your best."

"Lenny, he means you," came from an operator.

"Piss off, Hassan, you only owe me 200 points." 

"Like I owe you that. I paid you back when you came up with Hassan. Hassan, you can translate for me. So you went into a brothel?" 

"Fuck you! You ripped me off!" 

"Yeah, says the guy who took the bearded one."

"She was wearing a veil!" 

More laughter. 

Luke took a drag on his cigarette. Jannet came over to him and looked at him a little irritated.

"Um... Luke... don't get me wrong. But Alex always said that the operators don't like each other."

He looked at her.

"The new ones maybe," he gestured to the operators. "They've all gone through the same operator program. Most of them were in the same units in the army. Except for Smithie." 

He looked at Luke. 

"Yes?" 

"He was a mercenary." 

Smithie grinned broadly. 

A Filipina arrived last. She was breathing heavily. She went up to Lenny and gave him a liver hook that made him sink to his knees, whimpering.

"What's the meeting point here, the barracks, LENNY!" 

He whimpered. 

Jannet stared at her.

"Who is this?" "

"That," she looked at Luke. 

"You better not be using the nickname Mr. Catfish!" '

"Is Lorelei?"

The operators laughed. 

"Catfish..."

"That was his code name in the military because Apollo was so clean. My Ass." 

The operators nodded. 

"But Catfish... when I was young, that was what they called conartist."

Lorelei grinned and spread her arms. 

"Then welcome to our world, Püppie. He was the greatest conartist of them all back then. The camouflage chips were a joke. Whatever the aliens did to him." 

Jannet frowned.

"I'll give you a history lesson, Püppie, I was his adjutant back then, until that..." she pointed at Smithie. 

"Got me pregnant, and through him I met him."

Luke took a drag on his cigarette and looked to the side. 

"Really?" 

Smithie nodded.

"That's right." 

"I see..." 

"So, Mr. Catfish, he was really well camouflaged back then. No matter what, man, woman, ethnicity. He did it. He then wore a wig for the long hair. So the glasses idiot hired him to rob some mogul, then said take your female assistant for it, but no, Mr. Catfish did it personally."

Hassan nodded, and so did the other operators. Lorelei looked at them. 

"They were all victims, imagine coming into the operations room and finding a naked chick instead of your boss, checking herself out in the mirror. Only to then!" 

She pointed at Luke. "To become him again. We've seen him naked more than his slut of an ex-wife. Then he said, 'Ah Lorelei, look at what's wrong.' Hassan's tits are lopsided, Claire's labia are better!' Then he went to the mogul like a porn blonde after he'd spied on the pussies he had with him. BAM, killed him and emptied his bank accounts after two nights! And Lenny here!' 

She pointed at him with a diabolical grin. 

"Your dream angel back then on the base." 

He stared at her.

"What?" 

"Was Luke when he practiced?" " 

"WHAT?" 

They laughed. 

Janett looked at Luke who looked back and blew a cloud to the side. 

"Yes?" 

"Aren't you going to say anything?" 

"No. Why, it's true."

She wanted to say something. 

A point appeared in the sky and came closer and closer. 

"Ah, they're coming, everyone line up, did you all get the memo?" 

"Aye!" came collectively.

"Good, one more thing I just found out today. It's mating season. So leave your helmets on."

"Why only today?" Lorelei asked.

Luke pushed up his sleeves where the prints were, as if a constrictor had made itself comfortable there.

"Like I said, only today." 

Lorelei looked at him. 

"I thought you just popped the girl out of the holo."

"I wish, so watch out and don't get tagged." Lorelei smiled and put on the helmet. 

An elegantly shimmering ship landed, the airlock opened, conquerors got out. 

What irritated him more was the larger figure that got out. The column came closer. 

"In the name of the Earth, I welcome Her Majesty Nid the Fourth to Earth. '

She croaked deeply. A woman in a robe stepped forward.

'The monarch thanks you and greets the President of the Earth."

"Thank you very much and I would also like to greet Eminez Exklit on Earth."

The bearer bowed. 

"Unfortunately, our Meet & Greet Center is still under construction, so we have prepared an alternative if you would please follow me." 

Luke turned around and led the way. He led them into a building where seminars were always held, into the largest room. The hall was decorated with fountains and plants. Luke pointed to a velvet seat and waved another crystal bench over.

The monarch sat down on the velvet seat and Xklit on the crystal bench. Jannet had already gone to process material, so Luke was alone with the two and the betrothed. Peter and his team now had time off. 

The monarch croaked.

Luke grinned. 

"For the sake of etiquette, the population expects it. There is no filming here, nothing is done here."

She flipped back the hood; she looked amazingly like Nad, age-wise she was a forty-year-old without blemishes, apart from the huge bump on her jaw. She stared at Luke. 

She croaked a few sounds.

"No, only after we were here. Nad is still responsible for the moon, ned is responsible for sales."

She snarled.

"This morning, that's why I can't show anything like that."

Exclit started singing.

Luke looked at him. 

"I can only show the most important things that have not succumbed to the construction frenzy of my predecessors. But they are the big important ones."

Xxklit bowed. 

Nid looked at Luke again and croaked. 

"I can certainly demonstrate that." She kept looking at him and then opened her mouth. 

"With you?"

She cleared her throat and gargled. Luke sighed. He took off his jacket and rolled up his sleeves. He fetched a bucket. He reached into the nanobag, took out a spare toothbrush and toothpaste. 

She opened her mouth wider and stuck out her tongue. 

She reached down to her knees. She had three rows of teeth. Luke reached for her tongue, felt it, and then pushed the mucus into the bucket. Nid remained completely calm. Then he removed the pieces and remnants from her teeth. And then he scrubbed the teeth clean. He filled a cup with spring water and handed it to her.

"To spit out the toothpaste."

She did it silently, then opened her mouth again. He felt around. Found the mucus bag.

"Really the same procedure as with Nadja?" 

She gargled. Luke reached for the mucus bag and felt his way to the other. He felt that his feet were wet. With a jerk and a full movement, he pulled both mucus bags out of her, the main bag hanging down to the floor. Nid had already begun to grumble as he had pulled, and it grew louder and louder as he pulled them both out. She clung to Luke, her tentacles twitched uncontrollably at her head. With a deep clap, something landed on the floor and spread out into a large puddle.

Luke looked at the slime and dropped it into the bucket. He waited until Nid was breathing normally again, she let go, leaned back and croaked. Her eyes widened, she reached for her neck.

A Berobte held up a mirror. She looked into it and croaked. 

"Now your clothes are dirty." She looked down at herself. Luke took a suitcase and took out a dress that resembled Nad and Ned's, but was more elegant. 

"Your daughters had this made." She looked at it and felt his throat.

"My kids made this for me?" she blinked.

"Easier than before."

"I took the liberty of stimulating your vocal cords a little. With so much mucus, they get pretty hard." Yes. They both wanted to give it to you. ' She stood up.

'I don't like that." 

She dropped the robe, underneath she was naked and her body looked like Nad's. She looked down at herself, feeling her way. She looked at Luke.

"Unfortunately, it's all on the floor now." He handed her a cloth.

"For the frost." 

She looked at him, looked down at herself.

"And you really eat that, don't you?" 

"Yes. Not always." She ran her finger over her thigh and held it out to him. 

Luke licked her finger. 

"Tastes like Nad, only sweeter." She looked at him.

"Glad to hear it. Now the ceremonial thank-you ritual."

"Pardon?"

Faster than he could react, she kissed him and stepped back.

"I'll let Nad go first, but then I'll come for you."

Luke wiped the slime off and handed her his towel. Xklit carefully walked around the puddle and put her hand on Luke's head. 

"Yes, I know."

Nid put on her dress and looked at herself in the mirror. 

"And now, please, my servants as well, after that they will return to the mother ship to mate."

Luke sighed and lit a cigarette.

"Very well, then."

It took half an hour for Luke to get through all of them, his clothes were soaking wet. Nid clapped her hands and they left, beaming and motivated.

Luke sat on the crystal bench and took a deep breath.

"So, shall we move on to the second point?"

"Which would be?" 

Luke took out chips, put them on her, then a bracelet and entered the program and pressed the button on her. She winced, touched her hair and looked at it. He looked at Xklit and put the chips on her, he sang.

"I tested it," he put a bracelet on her, gave a command. Xclite stood up, he pulled back the hood, and Luke saw a human face. He opened his mouth.

"I..." He looked at Luke.

"You see, you got the latest generation chips, first."

"Luke, I'm happy with my shape."

"Unfortunately, we don't have the amount of crystals you need to eat. It would be enough for a snack and because I want to show you the holy cities."

Xklit smiled. 

"Nid, please give me the mirror."

She looked at him in puzzlement and gave it to him. Xklit looked into it. 

"Luke, can I please have a different eye color, like my crystals?" 

Luke changed it. 

"Thank you." He led them both into an adjoining room, and the employees looked at Luke.

"Sir, are you all right?"

"Yes. I'm just a little wet, sorry, I made a mess over there."

"It's okay, we have food."

"Thanks." 

Then he led them to a waiting room where Nad and Ned were waiting. 

"You can discuss where you want to go. I'll just go freshen up."

He teleported back home, threw his clothes into the laundry basket, took a shower and changed. He teleported back. 

Everything went well, as Luke thought, Nid behaved like a mother, not like a monarch. They explored the ocean instead of seeing the place. 

While Luke showed Xklit the religious buildings that still existed, he also went to see the religious people who had not yet given him anything in the way of relics. But they were very willing to talk to him. They visited for about a week before leaving, and Jannet made a PR spectacle out of it again. 

After that, he was on the road again, going from one meeting to the next. 

Ted challenged him to a game of golf and he accepted, visited laboratories that wanted to show him new technologies. Some crazy scientist thought he had managed to combine teleportation with ground technology. Basically, Luke thought it was good. So he took a look at it. Boxes and materials were transported back and forth without any problems, even laboratory animals.
