Zeus knew that Zhou Zhou had bought a house in the game the day before, but he didn't expect that he was invited in by Zhou Zhou earlier than Elvia.
Zeus was happily led home by Zhou Zhou, his heart beaming with joy, but every time Zhou Zhou looked at him he blinked innocently, showing the look of a little kid who knew nothing to the fullest.
After returning home, Zhou Zhou first found some clothes for the child. He had no children's clothes, so he could only let him wear some loose clothes first and then buy children's clothes later.
"What's your name?" Zhou Zhou asked while wiping his hair.
Zeus blinked. Not many people knew what he looked like now, so he could appear anywhere without any worries. However, everyone in the empire knew his name, and Zhou Zhou would definitely suspect him if he said it out loud. “My name is Xiao Jing.”
Anyway, the character I created for myself before was a whale transformed into a human, so calling me Little Whale is just right.
Zhou Zhou looked at his confused face and remembered himself coming out of the Love Academy dungeon not long ago, so he touched Zeus's head and said, "Little Whale, you can live with me forever."
Zeus didn't expect that the lie he made up would hit Zhou Zhou's heart, making him think that Zeus was also an NPC who came out of the copy, who knew nothing and was wandering alone in the lake, so he took the other person home.
"Really? Can I live here forever?"
Zeus had an expression of disbelief on his face, but he was so happy in his heart. He had wanted to get to know Zhou Zhou many times but missed the chance. The unexpected move of his clone allowed him to get what he wanted in one go. Not only was he taken home by Zhou Zhou, but he could also live in Zhou Zhou's house forever.
"Well, you can stay here forever."
The little octopus didn't like Zeus very much. It stood on Zhou Zhou's shoulder and waved its tentacles vigorously, trying to drive away the invader. However, it was too small, and the way it waved its tentacles looked so cute, it posed no threat at all.
"You play at home for a while, I'll go cook." Zhou Zhou thought for a moment, took the little octopus off his shoulder and put it in Zeus' palm, "You two can play together first."
It’s getting dark soon, and the children should be here after dinner. They are about the same age, so they can play together then.
The holographic space in the interstellar age has become people's second spiritual world. In the holographic space, people can not only cook and eat, but also test medicines, train the body's reaction ability, repair machinery, etc. Any activities that are too expensive or have limited space and tools in reality can be carried out in the holographic world.
As an official holographic game, all senses and operations of Nightmare City are synchronized with reality. This is why many real-life players have settled in Nightmare City for a long time. Whether it is cooking or other operations, the synchronization rate with reality can basically reach more than 90%.
Zhou Zhou didn't want to go out to buy food. Now that he had a home, he could cook and eat at home. Although as an NPC he does not need to eat, he still eats on time according to the standard of three meals a day.
After purchasing a cookbook online, Zhou Zhou carried a bucket into the kitchen and read through the recipes carefully, looking at the various fish dishes on the cookbook.
It was his first time cooking, and there were little octopus and little whale at home, so he had to feed them well. He caught several fish today, which he could cook in different ways.
Zhou Zhou put the recipe down after flipping through it, and looked at the fish in the bucket confidently. He had memorized the entire recipe and had already learned it.
Zeus stood in the living room, looking around Zhou Zhou's house. Although he already knew where Zhou Zhou's house was and what it looked like, now standing here, he felt that everything about it was to his liking.
However, the little octopus he put back on the table was very unfriendly. It had been showing its teeth and claws when Zhou Zhou was here just now. Now that Zhou Zhou went to the kitchen, it actually shouted in Zhou Zhou's voice, asking him to get out. Humph, Zhou Zhou said that he could live here forever, so he wouldn’t leave.
The little octopus always felt that this person was very threatening, even more threatening than those dolls, so he waved his tentacles at Zeus viciously, trying to drive him out of the house.
Unexpectedly, Zeus not only did not go out, but also stuck out his tongue and made faces at it. The pink octopus was so angry that he almost turned into a red octopus.
"Puff puff puff!" The little octopus activated its skill and spit out ink.
Zeus moved flexibly, dodged the attack of red ink, and used the mocking skill towards the little octopus.
The little octopus's anger doubled, and it pouted at Zeus again.
After all, Zeus is the creator of the game in Nightmare City. It would be really hilarious if he was hit by the ink of this little octopus in the holographic world.
He dodged all the ink with ease, and even cleaned up the red ink that the little octopus had splashed all over the living room. Cleaning up was a piece of cake for him.
Zeus was dodging and provoking the little octopus at the same time, and he was having a lot of fun seeing the little octopus getting angry but helpless.
Just when the little octopus realized that he couldn't drive the other party away and wanted to complain to Zhou Zhou, thick smoke suddenly billowed out of the kitchen.
Thick black smoke billowed out from the cracks in the kitchen door. Zeus immediately gave up the idea of bullying the little octopus and ran towards the kitchen.
"Zhou Zhou! Zhou Zhou!" Zeus shouted while running. Didn’t Zhou Zhou go to the kitchen to cook? Why is it still on fire?
When he opened the kitchen door, he saw Zhou Zhou wearing a lace apron, holding a shovel in his hand, looking at the stove with thick smoke with a confused look on his face. There were even a few black stains on his face.
Zeus immediately turned off the fire, turned on the kitchen ventilation, and then tapped a few times somewhere on the wall. After a series of smooth operations, the kitchen was immediately refreshed, and even the black unknown object in the pot was removed.
Zhou Zhou held the shovel and looked down at Zeus standing in front of him. He said softly, "I just followed the recipe. I didn't know it would turn out like this."
Before, Zhou Zhou was still dumbfounded by the sudden fire and smoke in the pot, and did not hear Zeus calling his name outside. He had never told the other party his name from the time they met until now, but Zeus called him so smoothly.
After a disastrous kitchen accident, neither of them remembered this, so the matter of the name was ignored by them at the same time.
Zeus looked at Zhou Zhou who was feeling aggrieved and asked, "Is this your first time cooking?"
Zhou Zhou nodded. In the past at the Love Academy, he had only heard that everyone made various dishes and snacks at home. The school did not have the relevant equipment. In addition, he had been eating in the restaurant since he came out of the copy, so sometimes he forgot to eat and it didn't matter.
Now that I have my own home and there are other people at home, I just want to eat well every day, but I messed up the first time I cooked.
"I'm sorry, I don't think I've learned how to cook yet. Let me look at the recipe for a while." Zhou Zhou picked up the recipe again, looking so focused as if he was studying some extremely profound subject.
This time he watched for even longer than last time. After he finished, he regained his fighting spirit and said to Zeus who was standing next to him, "I will succeed this time."
But when Zeus saw Zhou Zhou put the struggling and dripping fish into the oil pan, he knew that Zhou Zhou still couldn't do it this time.
Zeus quickly grabbed Zhou Zhou's sleeve and said to him, "Let me do it."
A little boy of about five or six years old was standing on a stool, cooking very seriously, and he did it quite well. Zhou Zhou felt embarrassed and stood behind Zeus to try to help.
Until the fish was cooked, he did nothing to help except serve the dish.
Zeus is much more talented in this area than Zhou Zhou. Although he is not very interested in eating, he has various recipes recorded in his brain and can make them with his eyes closed. Since Zhou Zhou likes to eat, he can make different recipes every day.
Zeus cooked several fish dishes in a row, including steamed, braised, sweet and sour, and they were all delicious. It was a pleasure to look at them on the table.
Zhou Zhou sat at the dining table, looking at the dishes with envy: "Xiao Jing, you are amazing."
Zeus's chubby face was full of pride: "That's nothing, if you like to eat it, I will make it for you every day."
Zhou Zhou took a bite and found that the taste was very similar to the restaurant he often went to, even better. He immediately looked at Zeus with a different look: "It tastes better than what I've had before. You're really amazing. Have you ever learned to cook before?"
The first half of the sentence made Zeus even more proud, because he made it according to the recipe of that restaurant. But the following words made him lose his smug look.
He told Zhou Zhou about his mermaid from the deep sea. How could a mermaid in the seabed cook?
"This, I used to like to eat it so I learned to make it myself, and I learned a lot."
Can such a young child learn to cook by himself?
Zhou Zhou: "Do you have any family?"
Zeus shook his head. How could an artificial intelligence have any family?
Zhou Zhou touched Zeus's head again: "This will be your home from now on."
Zeus's black and white eyes were clear and pure. He nodded heavily: "Yes!"
After thinking for a while, he added: "Then I will cook for you from now on."
Zhou Zhou also laughed, thinking of the dark unknown object in the pot when he was cooking, and said to Zeus: "Then I'll trouble you for the next two days, but I can't let you do it all the time, can you teach me?"
Zeus: "Okay, okay."
The atmosphere between the two people was harmonious and friendly, only the little octopus was standing on the dining table and eating fish angrily. Zhou Zhou, he is a bad guy, don't be fooled by him.
After dinner, Zhou Zhou went out to buy some suitable clothes for Zeus. Fearing that he would be bored, he left the little octopus behind as well.
As soon as Zhou Zhou left, the cute and lovable Zeus immediately lay down on the sofa, propped up his head with his hands, looked at the little octopus lazily and said, "You heard it just now, right? I will live here from now on. Zhou Zhou is the eldest and I am the second. You have to listen to me from now on."
Suddenly thinking of something, Zeus narrowed his eyes and smiled at the little octopus: "Captain will be online tomorrow, and you can leave Zhou Zhou and I's home then."
The little octopus was almost pissed off at Zeus and started puffing at him again.
Now that Zhou Zhou is not at home, Zeus doesn't have to pretend to be a good child anymore. With a wave of his finger, the ink in the air disappears.
"Lululu, I can't spray you, I can't spray you." He was a man who even dared to confront Elvia, so how could he be afraid of a little octopus.
The little octopus was almost crying because of him. This guy was more annoying than the dolls.
Just as the little octopus was thinking this in his heart, the row of dolls at the head of the bed in the bedroom also started to move. They had already eaten lunch and now came to Zhou Zhou's house to play again.
"Zhou Zhou, are you home?" Xiao Jin possessed the white rabbit doll and shouted while jumping under the bed skillfully.
The other children also jumped off the bed and walked out of the bedroom using their doll bodies.
But when they came out, they happened to meet the eyes of Zeus who was curled up on the sofa.
Zeus had known about the existence of these elves for a long time, and he also knew that they came to play with Zhou Zhou every day. At the beginning, he wanted to use the body of the little bear to get to know Zhou Zhou, but they got there first.
Thinking of this, Zeus stared at the little dolls suddenly, and his eyes gradually became unfriendly. Moreover, he remembered the rabbit. The elf child was named Xiao Jin, which sounded similar to his current name.
The little dolls didn't expect that there was someone else in Zhou Zhou's house, and that he was a child who looked similar to them. Is it too late for them to pretend that they are really dolls?
The little dolls knew that they couldn't be seen by others, so they lay down on the ground and pretended that they were just moving dolls.
Zeus: "... Stop pretending, I know you guys are pestering Zhou Zhou every day."
The tone is sour.
