Chapter Sixty-Eight: Mist and Rain
She was gazing out the window, mesmerized. Many transparent, balloon-like spheres floated into the air, filled with tiny, colorful specks that transformed the gloomy weather into a vibrant, multicolored sea of stars, bringing a delightful sense of life.
She watched for a while, then stood up to find her parents, intending to tell them she wanted to go out. Before she had taken two steps, she tripped over the toys scattered on the ground.
Tang Ting rushed to help her up when he saw her fall, but before he could get over, Anuo got up on her own and then angrily kicked the toys on the ground away.
After kicking the toys away, Anno stared at them for a while, then bent down and picked them up and put them away.
She just took the toy out, but then threw it on the ground because she wasn't in the mood to play with it.
Tang Ting observed Anuo's behavior and emotions, squatted down in front of her, straightened her clothes, and asked softly, "Did you hurt yourself, baby?"
Anuo shook her head and handed the doll in her hand to Tang Ting. "Dad, I want to go out."
Tang Ting said, "Baby, we're going back to the main planet tomorrow. How about we go out and play again when we get back?"
Tang Ting said that on purpose; he wanted to see Anno's reaction.
Anuo frowned slightly, looking somewhat annoyed. "I want to go out."
Luo Jin walked over and squatted down beside her. "Baby, what's wrong?"
Tang Ting: "Baby wants to go out and play."
Lokin ruffled her hair. "Today is the Fog and Rain Festival. It's very lively outside. If you want to go out, baby, we'll go out after dinner."
Anno looked at the time displayed on her personal terminal; it was almost dinnertime. She nodded and said, "Okay."
After dinner, Luo Jin put a thicker fleece coat on her, and Tang Ting brought medical equipment to examine her body.
Looking at the red bar displayed on the instrument, Tang Ting's expression turned serious. Sure enough, she had been affected by the energy of the Fallen Species.
Although she can purify the energy of the Fallen Ones, their violent mental power will also affect her, corrupting and assimilating her energy.
He was relieved that Anno's ability to purify the Fallen Ones had not yet been revealed, because this meant she could no longer come into contact with the energy of the Fallen Ones.
The mere purification of the energy extracted from the Fallen Ones had such a profound impact on her emotions; who knows how much harm contact with Fallen Ones would cause to her body?
"Alright, let's take Nuonuo baby out to play."
After putting a fluffy hat on Anno's head, Lokin picked her up and tossed her in the air. Anno smiled and wrapped her arms around Lokin's neck.
Luo Jin carried her out, then turned to Tang Ting and said, "Daddy, take the bottle. The baby didn't eat much tonight, so she'll probably be hungry later."
The baby bottle has an insulated function. Tang Ting made a bottle of milk for Anuo and put it in her bag. She also packed some snacks for her to eat.
The Fog and Rain Festival is the most lively festival in the summer of Canghai Star. It usually lasts for about a week. There are many snacks at the festival, all of which are local specialties, mostly fried and baked foods. Anuo can't eat these yet, so he prepared some snacks for her to avoid her craving them later.
Knowing that Anuo and his group were going out, the guards quickly and secretly patrolled the streets they were heading to, in order to prevent a repeat of the dangerous situation that had occurred at White Sand Lake a few days ago.
Wu Sui and Li Yue followed. Since they were going back to the main star tomorrow, Tu Ka and the others behaved themselves and didn't make a fuss about going out to play. They were being watched by someone and the children were playing games together in the room.
Anno stepped out of the building, feeling the moist and fresh air, and slowly exhaled a breath of pent-up air.
The rain outside had stopped, but the protective shield above our heads was still open, and a cool breeze was blowing in from the depths of the desert.
Anno saw the bustling crowds and bright, flashing lights on the street and wanted to get off Locke.
Logan was prepared. When he saw that she wanted to get down, he put her on the ground, took out a baby carrier from his bag and tied it on her. The leash of the baby carrier was three meters long, so it wouldn't let Anno stray too far from them.
They used to take care of their six children at home, and leashes were always a must. Those children were much more mischievous than Nuonuo; once the leash was put down in this busy city, they would just let go and disappear.
Anno was drawn to the various peculiar items in the bustling city and didn't pay much attention to the rope on her body, nor did the strap make her feel any discomfort.
Luo Jin and Tang Ting followed behind her, holding one end of the rope, while Li Yue and Wu Sui walked beside her to prevent her from being accidentally pushed over.
As she walked down the street, people around her would automatically make way for her. Now, everyone on Canghai Star knows Anuo. Her photos had already been uploaded to the SkyNet once, and although the administrators had deleted them and issued warnings, it was enough for them to remember this little spark.
Looking at the adorable little cub in front of them, everyone stopped to look at her and couldn't help but want to take pictures of her, but as soon as they had this thought, they were stopped by guards who appeared out of nowhere.
You can't take pictures, but you can still play with the little cubs.
Everyone took out their own toys and snacks and handed them to her in a coaxing tone, as if they were talking to a child.
As Anno walked, he found himself unable to move forward. Before him appeared many hands holding various items, and smiling faces.
"The Fire Seed cubs are so tiny and cute!"
"Baby, come here, this is a gift from Auntie!"
"Baby is so good! Do you like this? If you do, take it!"
Anno scratched his head and looked up at Logan and the others.
Seeing Anuo's little gestures, the onlookers wished they could hug her and give her a good rub.
Tang Ting saw that she was surrounded and could not move, so he laughed and picked her up in his arms. The guards also dispersed the onlookers.
Someone was using a megaphone to shout: "For the safety of the Fire Seedlings, please do not gather around! Please do not gather around! Please everyone, please comply!"
Anuo sighed, leaning on Tang Ting's shoulder, thinking about how she was always surrounded by so many people when she went out to play.
Hearing her sigh, Tang Ting smiled and said, "There is no fire seed on Canghai Star, so the people here are more curious about fire seeds. This will not be the case when we return to the main star."
Seeing that everyone had dispersed and was no longer watching, Tang Ting put Anuo down and took her leash so she could play on her own.
A glowing bird flew to Anno, circled her twice, and then gently pecked her nose. Anno leaned back, and the bird instantly transformed into a miniature golden jellyfish.
The golden jellyfish flew forward and finally landed in someone's hand, turning into a small ball.
Anno followed the gaze and saw that the person was wearing a mascot costume, with two floating shelves beside him, filled with all sorts of toys.
She walked over, and a person dressed as a mascot squatted down in front of her and handed her a small ball.
