Chapter 15

Before hearing the second half of Wen Xin's sentence, Canary thought this was a really absurd and strange question.

——Didn’t the young man see how panicked and helpless they were in front of Number One and Number Seven?

The canaries even suspected that the other party was trying to warn them to recognize their own identities and honestly tuck their tails in and become mutants.

It was not until he met that determined look that he vaguely believed the other person's seriousness.

The answer is no need to think.

The canary said with mixed feelings, "No."

When they come here for shelter, they naturally hope that the one who will protect them is as strong as possible.

Wen Xin looked at the boy for a moment, then turned to the little fox.

The little fox tilted his head: "Hmm?"

Why are you looking at me?

Seeing the little fox's ignorant look, Wen Xin did not get impatient and asked softly, "How about you, can you?"

The little fox blinked in confusion, then he remembered that Wen Xin had been asking "you guys" instead of "you".

This is... weird.

The little fox has always been used to following other people's instructions. It will do whatever others say and act as a perfect tool fox.

Number One and Number Seven, who knew Canary better, directly targeted Canary when they met, and they didn't think it was Canary who came up with the bad idea.

Or maybe, it is because I think it has no ideas at all.

The little fox was curious and shook his head.

Wen Xin could tell that they were not lying, at least for now.

He was relieved for the moment: "Second question, if you don't find the person you are looking for, where are you going to go next?"

They just want to find a place to rest, and will leave naturally when they find the person they are looking for.

The above is what Canary said when she met Wen Xin.

He didn't expect that the young man actually remembered it now.

The "person" has been found, it is Number One, but Number One is angry, so it's a good thing that he didn't tear them apart.

Maybe I can ask this seemingly kind-hearted human in front of me... Will he agree?

Canary pursed her lips: "I don't know."

Wen Xin: "Don't know?"

"Maybe I'll go to the beach and look for another person." Canary thought hard, frowned and spoke uncertainly, "If I can't find him, I'll keep looking for someone else... There's always somewhere to go."

After leaving the base, he had to avoid being hunted down. Without human identification, he could not be taken in by the strong.

The canary counted the escape routes she could choose, but found that they were pitifully few.

This indescribable feeling of confusion was like him standing on a busy street holding the little fox, surrounded by tall buildings, each of which looked solid and spacious enough to accommodate him.

But each one turned them away.

Wen Xin saw the confusion in the boy's eyes and paused: "Well, I understand."

After that, he took out the compressed bag containing the quilt from the cupboard and glanced at the boy who was standing still: "Broom and dustpan, do you recognize these two things? They are on the balcony, can you help me get them over here?"

“The room was cleaned before, so it's not very dirty, but there's some dust on the windowsill, so be careful not to get stung.”

…

The canary and the little fox followed Wen Xin to clean up in a daze.

While they were cleaning the windows, Wen Xin had also quickly made the bed.

Considering that the weather was getting cooler and the temperature was dropping quickly, he added two more layers of cotton wool, making the clean white bed look soft and fluffy.

Wen Xin said, "Before you find the person you are looking for, you can stay here. It may be a little shabby, but it is fine for rest."

Then he walked out with the dirty water.

The canary was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously chased after the young man, asking in disbelief: "Wait a minute, are you willing to take us in? Don't you want to ask more questions?"

"What do you want to ask?"

"Ask us who we are, what our purpose is here, or ask us..."

In fact, even Canary didn't know what Wen Xin should ask.

He just walked on the wire in fear for too long, feeling that there should be a sharp knife against his neck, and felt that Wen Xin should not accept it so easily.

Wen Xin looked at him and said calmly: "If I ask you, will you tell me?"

The canary stopped in its tracks.

It's not a question of whether he can do it or not, but he simply doesn't dare to reveal that he is a mutant in front of humans, because the base is still searching for them.

Wen Xin smiled and rubbed the boy's head: "Since you don't want to say it, then don't say it."

The touch on top of its head faded away immediately, and the canary stopped where it was.

At this moment, even he didn't know what he was thinking. He only knew that when he came back to his senses, his chest was filled with an indescribable feeling.

During dinner, Wen Xin asked the canary and the little fox their names.

One is called Ninety-Nine and the other is called Twenty-Seven. They don’t sound like names but more like laboratory classification numbers.

Wen Xin made some guesses about their identities in his mind, but he did not show it on his face, nor did he pursue the matter further.

After dinner, he called Canary and wanted to take the boy out shopping.

Canary's heart suddenly began to tighten.

When he arrived at the shopping mall, he realized dully that Wen Xin really went out just to buy him new clothes and had no intention of selling him privately.

In a shopping mall at night, an adult and a child walked into the youth clothing area.

The salesgirl glanced over casually and her eyes lit up.

Since I started my career, I have rarely encountered such pleasing moments, especially these two are handsome guys of different types, the younger one is aloof and the older one is handsome.

This is especially true for adults, who naturally relax their brows when looking at others, and the sharp edges of their chins are softened, revealing a gentle temperament that makes it difficult for people to look away.

Wen Xin said, "Hello, I want to buy some clothes for my child. Do you have any recommendations?"

The salesgirl's face lit up with enthusiasm.

The living clothes hanger model is right next to you, so you must have it, you can have as many as you want!

So, under the other party's enthusiastic recommendation, Canary gritted his teeth and tried on no less than seven or eight pieces of clothing in a row, and there were more than ten pieces waiting for him.

He was flattered and said, "That's enough, isn't it?"

Wen Xin, however, gradually felt an indescribable sense of novelty.

He had no experience in dealing with children directly, so he felt that he could not just do it perfunctorily and that if he was going to buy something, he had to buy the right one.

Now, watching Canary put on new clothes, various styles matched with each other, each one is refreshing and handsome, not to mention how addictive it is.

Sales are rising steadily, and the salesgirl is smiling: "In addition to autumn clothes, we also have this year's new winter hot styles..."

Wen Xin's expression changed.

Canary: “!”

By the end, Canary's hands were shaking. She ignored the difference in relationship and grabbed Wen Xin's clothes to beg for mercy: "First, sir!"

Seeing Canary's panicked and tense face, Wen Xin had no choice but to give up.

Before Canary could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard words that made his scalp tingle again.

Wen Xin: "I want all the ones I tried. Please help me pack them."

Canary: “!!”

On the way home, the night was hazy, and the bright moonlight and street lights complemented each other, making the road clear and bright.

The boy was terrified: "Will it cost a lot of money?"

Everything outside the base has to be purchased with money. This is the most profound lesson Canary has learned along the way.

Wen Xin saw his uneasiness and didn't say anything like "You don't have to pay it back."

Instead, she extended a hand and rubbed his head: "When you grow up and have a job and make money, return it to me."

Wen Xin is not arrogant enough to think that humans can control the world, but it is undeniable that the world is now full of human traces.

In his opinion, the black group can only turn into cats and have no choice, but the boy can turn into a human, which gives him an extra advantage in terms of survival.

The great hide in the city. If you can't hide away in the future, it's better to integrate into it in advance.

Hearing this, Canary felt extremely complicated and even tasted a bitter taste.

Yes, the young man had no idea that they were mutants. They just treated him as a normal human cub and thought he still had a future to look forward to.

But soon after, the canary felt something strange again.

Wen Xin can communicate normally with No. 1 and the others, and assumes that the little fox can understand what he says... Does the other party really know nothing?

Soon, Canary was no longer confused or troubled by this problem.

Because Wen Xin is truly an abnormal human being.

The other party actually chose to get up two hours earlier to do morning exercises, just to avoid being accidentally injured by No. 1 and the others.

——And dragged him along.
