"I didn't expect him to have the brains to get to us. I'll order him to be destroyed right now!
The second Gentrian crossed his limbs on his body, forming a kind of living, light yellow pillar.
But why? — asked the first, who read the conditional gesture, which meant prohibition in the language of the Gentry — we are able to repeat the task without undue risk.
If we activate the charge now, our planet may also suffer — interrupted the second Gentrian — wait! As soon as a person returns to his lousy earth on our spaceship, the destruction mechanism must be launched! The charge of energy explosives inside is enough to explode a dozen stars. And this time without delay. I hope you remember the predictions of the great Gentrin oracles. We must remain the only race in the space of the universe. Otherwise, death!
All the way to earth, Lupo went over the vivid events of the past day in his memory. He decided not to get into trouble for at least a month. Moreover, hoping to get a good sum for a miracle car, Devega became much more cheerful.

The door of the spaceship opened. Outside, large drops of rain lashed the treetops, drumming on the roofs of sleepy houses. A wave of cool air swept over Lupo's skin, and a small shiver ran through him. Turning around, Devega went inside the ship to find a T-shirt.
No wonder I got the spaceships mixed up, thought Lupo with a grin, not finding his thing — they're all the same there. Withering energy capable of melting the sun enveloped Gentry for a moment.
