"...Leave?" Yu Lili was stunned when she heard Xiao Zhuque's words, and she repeated it subconsciously.
She had originally met the little Suzaku on the way, so it should have an owner. Now that it has found clues and information about its owner, isn't it normal for it to go looking for its owner?
Yulili knew the truth, but when she thought about Little Suzaku leaving, she couldn't help but feel disappointed: "Are you leaving soon?"
"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Little Suzaku was actually reluctant to leave Yu Lili, but Lu Zhoutang was almost recovering. He even turned into a human form for a short time today, so he would be able to go back soon.
As his mecha, Suzaku must of course go back as well.
So the separation now is inevitable.
"So fast..." Yu Lili thought for a moment, but found that he had nothing to give to Little Suzaku.
Elixir? Food?
Little Suzaku doesn't even need that as a robot.
Yu Lili was rarely confused. Little Suzaku came over and held Yu Lili's finger: "Lili, don't worry, I will come back to find you later. I remember, you are in the Pharmacy Department of Union University, right? When I find my master, I will ask him to take me to find you."
"Okay." Even though she was still not that happy, Yu Lili felt a little relaxed when she heard that they would meet again in the future.
Xiao Zhuque's interruption made Yu Lili feel unhappy, but she still managed to cheer up and asked Xiao Ju: "Xiao Ju, are you really okay?"
Lu Zhoutang: “…Meow.” It’s okay.
Yu Lili thought for a moment and asked Little Suzaku, "Has anything happened in the past few days?"
She was referring to whether anything else had happened to Xiaoju. Little Suzaku understood what she meant, and also understood Lu Zhoutang's current embarrassment. It shook its head: "Nothing."
It seems that Xiaoju has grown up a little recently and has his own little secrets or thoughts.
Then it doesn't matter.
Yu Lili thought about it, and finally couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.
After Yu Lili fell asleep, Xiao Zhuque moved to Lu Zhoutang's side and stared at him.
Facing the little Suzaku, Lu Zhoutang no longer felt embarrassed or restless. He lay down unmoved.
Although he had recovered a little, Lu Zhoutang's previous injury was too serious, so he fell asleep while lying down.
The little Suzaku stared at him: "..."
The little robot sighed loudly.
Both it and Lu Zhoutang were leaving. It was fine for it because it would have a chance to meet Yu Lili next time. But looking at Lu Zhoutang's expression, he would never recognize Yu Lili again.
When Xiaoju leaves, she will definitely be worried, right?
But he had to leave. Many people had already doubted his identity, and staying would bring danger to Yu Lili - this was also the reason why Lu Zhoutang had to leave as soon as he recovered a little.
As for clues about its owner?
Just blame it on the people on the starship. Anyway, it has been separated from Yulili recently, and no one knows what it did or who it met.
The only thing that Little Suzaku was worried about now was how Lu Zhoutang could leave smoothly without making Yu Lili worry - he still remembered what Yu Lili looked like after Xiaoju was teleported away by it last time.
——
The next day, when Yu Lili woke up and saw the little Suzaku, he remembered that it had said it was going to leave.
She stared at the little Suzaku for a while without saying anything, and went to wash up first.
Then when eating, she would suddenly look at Xiao Zhuque, which made Xiao Zhuque feel uncomfortable.
We had originally planned to pick other herbs today. Although Yu Lili hesitated for a moment whether to postpone it for two days because Xiao Zhuque was leaving, he finally decided to proceed according to the plan.
But she went to find Little Suzaku: "Suzaku, I know you want to leave, and I won't stop you, but can you wait until I come back before leaving? At least we can say goodbye properly."
Little Suzaku, who was about to sneak away: "..."
It looked at Yu Lili's serious expression and finally nodded: "Okay."
Yu Lili was relieved.
After finishing breakfast, Yu Lili had to go to Yingshuigui as usual in the morning, so when she arrived at the entrance of the cave, she had to separate from Rong Jing.
It had always been like this before, and Yu Lili and Rong Jing had already reached a tacit understanding. However, this time, Rong Jing suddenly asked, "Suzaku is leaving?"
"Yeah." Yu Lili nodded, feeling a little downcast when talking about this: "I can't bear to part with it."
"Didn't it say it would come back to find you?" Rong Jing was actually becoming more wary of Suzaku's origins. It wasn't that she was wary of Suzaku, after all, they had been together for so long, she knew that little Suzaku had no ill intentions.
But she felt that there must be something wrong with Xiao Zhuque's background.
Maybe it's a good thing it's gone now.
But she couldn't say such words to Yu Lili, she could only comfort Yu Lili.
Yu Lili was a little disheartened, after all, she had already accepted this matter. She smiled and said, "That's fine. We'll be staying on the desolate planet for a long time anyway, so it's not a big deal for Little Suzaku to accompany us all the time. It's just a pity that I don't know what gift to give Little Suzaku... Well, I hope I can find something good today."
Rong Jing: “…Yeah.”
She didn't know what to give the little robot.
"Since they are robots, the most important thing for them is energy." Chu Ming suddenly spoke.
"Energy?" Yu Lili was puzzled. "But how do I provide it with energy?"
Fish probably know two types of energy: light energy and biological micro-electricity.
There's no way she could give these two things as gifts; they're intangible and untouchable.
Chu Ming said: "Energy Stone."
He briefly explained to Yu Lili what energy stone was. Simply put, it was a kind of mineral rich in energy. For robots, it was the best charging item.
Things like biological microelectricity and light energy can indeed be charged, but they are too slow compared to energy stones.
The energy stone is the robot's most loyal partner.
But energy stones are generally not cheap, and this is on a barren planet. I guess the program team won't let them exchange energy stones.
Yu Lili wasn't thinking about exchanging it. She thought for a moment and said, "Can you tell me what the energy stone looks like? I'd like to find some time today."
Although Chu Ming was surprised, he still explained the appearance of the energy stone to Yu Lili in detail.
But after he finished speaking, he added: "Generally speaking, energy stones are covered with a layer of stone coat, the main function of which is to block the dispersion of its energy, so finding energy stone veins is not easy."
Yu Lili was optimistic: "I'm not looking for energy stone veins. I only need one energy stone. It's not impossible that I won't come across one."
In response, Chu Ming: "..."
As long as you are happy.
