Chapter 111
To be honest, Shi Yjiang has worked on Prison Star for many years and has taken in several cubs, but he dares to say that the little girl in front of him is the most special one he has ever seen.
First of all, her emotions were very stable. She was very calm along the way, not caring about anything around her, and was always in a daze.
But her indifference is different from the complete self-isolation of No. 3. She is very polite and considerate in dealing with people, and you can tell at a glance that she is a well-educated child.
Her indifference is more like numbness, and the seemingly inextricable sorrow between her brows gives her a melancholy that is different from her peers.
Only when she faced the little fat bird would her eyes show a hint of brightness.
Shi Yjiang didn't know what this child had experienced, but looking at her long ears drooping low, he still withdrew his gaze.
The children who were sent to Prison Star were not simple. The one who should have a headache should be the new breeder Su.
"Let's go. I'll take you to the administrative office and a breeder will come to pick you up." Shi Yjiang walked out of the cab.
The little girl withdrew her hand, and the chubby little bird flapped its wings and landed on her shoulder. Its black grape-like eyes looked left and right, full of curiosity about everything around it.
On the contrary, the little girl lowered her head slightly and followed Shi Yjiang silently and obediently.
Soon we arrived at the administrative building.
"Knock knock knock--" Shi Yjiang knocked on the door.
"Come in."
A woman's solemn and dignified voice came from inside.
The little girl followed Shi Yjiang into the office. After hearing Shi Yjiang introduce himself to the woman, she lifted her skirt and saluted skillfully and elegantly.
Guo Hui looked at this gentle and lovely little lady, and her expression was a little complicated for a moment.
After the little girl saluted, the fat little bird standing on her shoulder also chirped twice, as if saying hello to Guo Hui.
Guo Hui looked at the bird, then at the information, and said, "Is this your little pet?"
Hearing this, the little girl who had remained silent all this time finally looked at Guo Hui and said seriously, "Jiujiu is not a pet, he is my good friend, ma'am."
The little girl's voice was soft yet childish, and her speech was neither fast nor slow. She sounded like a little adult, yet it made people feel very comfortable.
She is indeed a daughter raised by the royal family... What a pity, how could she have such a brutal bloodline?
Guo Hui recalled the information about the little girl's life and couldn't help but sigh. There was a bit more pity and sympathy in her eyes when she looked at the little girl.
"Yeah, I understand."
Guo Hui nodded, her voice softening slightly as she said, "But I must remind you, if you must bring it with you, then you must protect it well. Once you get to the nursery, it's best not to let it leave the room."
The little girl shrank her five fingers slightly and became obviously nervous.
She didn't ask why, but just nodded, "I understand, thank you for your tolerance and reminder."
"Well, starting today, you'll start a new life here. Number Nine, that's your new name," Guo Hui said. "Okay, go sit over there for a while. The breeder will be here to pick you up soon."
Number Nine...
The little girl clenched her fingers tightly. Can't she even keep her past name?
Her eyes dimmed a little, and after a slight nod, she walked away with the little fat girl and sat down on the chair that Guo Hui pointed to.
The little girl lowered her head and began to daydream again.
“Chirp!”
The little fat bird jumped twice, trying to attract the girl's attention. Seeing that the girl ignored it, it rubbed her cheek with its little beak.
The little girl raised her head, her eyes slightly red, she tried hard to give it a smile, then lowered her head again, her mood as depressed as her drooping rabbit ears.
Seeing her like this, the little fat bird could only calm down.
It tilted its little head, flapped its wings, flew to her shoulder, curled up beside her neck, its soft and fluffy feathers touching her, and used its small body to give her warmth.
This was the scene Su Ci saw when he walked in.
The little girl looked up with a sense of realization.
When she saw the young man in the gray-blue uniform, she blinked slightly. Even though she had seen many beauties, she couldn't help but be stunned by the young man's peerless appearance.
After a while, she came to her senses, quickly got down from the chair, lifted her skirt and bowed to the young man. This etiquette seemed to be engraved in her bones, and it was beautiful even in a hurry.
Su Ci looked at her for a few times, his eyes swept over the long furry ears on her head, and then looked at Guo Hui.
A Yan, who was next to him and invisible to everyone, first looked up at Su Ci, then looked at the little girl with rabbit ears not far away, with a bit of vigilance and distress in his eyes.
He reached out and touched his ears, which had just become round, with a look of confusion on his face.
Is it...going to change again?
"Keeper Su, the new cub has arrived. Please take her back." Guo Hui said.
Su Ci nodded and walked towards the little girl.
Seeing the breeder approaching, the little girl took a step back nervously. After noticing that the young man had stopped, she breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Hello, sir. I'm new here... Number Nine."
When the little girl mentioned her new name, she pursed her lips slightly and lowered her head again.
Su Ci frowned. He squatted down, looking the timid little rabbit in the eye. After noticing the little girl's sadness, he asked, "What was your original name?"
The little girl was startled, her eyes slightly red again. She bit her lip and answered obediently: "My...my name is Xuewei."
"Xuewei? It suits you quite well." She heard the young man's voice gently say, "You can keep this name from now on."
Xiao Xuewei couldn't help but look at him and said in surprise: "But...is it okay?"
She looked at Guo Hui with some uneasiness in her eyes.
Guo Hui was also watching them. Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but frown. It wasn't because she was dissatisfied, but just a little surprised.
This is something that breeders in the past have never done.
Su Ci stood up and said to Guo Hui, "Can this kind of nameplate be made for a cub?"
He pointed to the nameplate on his chest. Every member of the base had one, except the cubs in the nursery.
“Of course you can…” But is it necessary?
Guo Hui didn't say the rest of the words.
She looked at Su Ci's serious expression, then at the little girl whose eyes had brightened after she knew she could keep her original name. After thinking for a moment, she hesitated and said, "Let me help you apply."
Every breeder has a different way of raising cubs. She is not a professional, so all she can do is try to cooperate.
"Yeah." Su Ci nodded.
The young man didn't seem to think his application would be rejected. He continued, "I've picked new names for the cubs and will send them to you when I get back."
New name?
Guo Hui was a little surprised. She looked at Su Ci seriously, as if she was meeting him for the first time, and then nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Then, Su Ci's eyes fell on the plump little tit and asked, "What about him?"
As Su Ci asked, A Yan also looked at the little tit. The little bird looked like a small ball of fluff and was very cute.
Is this a completely beastly cub?
However, Guo Hui said, "This is her favorite..."
She paused, then changed the subject, "This is hers. It should be okay for them to stay in the nursery together, right?"
Although this was just a small matter and the personnel responsible for the review and handover did not forcibly take the girl's pet away, once she arrived at the nursery, she had to listen to the keeper about everything concerning the cubs.
If the breeder disagrees, there's really nothing that can be done. However, based on her observation, this breeder Su shouldn't be that cruel.
"She raised him?"
Su Ci said something strange, then retracted his gaze and said, "Then let's go."
He gestured to Xiao Xuewei, then turned and walked out the door.
Xiao Xuewei hurriedly caught up with him. When she reached the door, she seemed to remember something, turned around, said goodbye to Guo Hui and other people in the office, then turned around and trotted after Su Ci.
Even the fat little bird flapped its wings, chirped twice, and then flew away.
"This new cub seems a little different?" Guo Hui's colleague couldn't help but say.
Guo Hui nodded, but she was thinking about the performance of the breeder Su just now.
His last odd expression concerned her, but the most surprising thing was the name he gave the cub.
It seems that he is very different from the previous keepers. Is this the reason why the cubs have been so well-behaved recently?
Guo Hui couldn't help but look at her own screen, which was displaying the resume sent by the Human Resources Department. She couldn't help but push her glasses up, her eyes showing thought.
So, can we not be so anxious about recruiting new breeders?
In the corridor, Xiao Xuewei finally caught up with Su Ci. Because of jogging, her face was slightly redder and she looked more energetic than before.
The little fat chirp flew around Su Ci. Seeing that Su Ci just glanced at it lightly and continued to walk slowly, it couldn't help but chirp.
The chirping of the titmouse is clear and pleasant, but it seems a bit noisy.
“Chirp.”
The girl called it, and the little fat bird paused, then flew back and landed on her shoulder.
Xiao Xuewei followed the breeder and found that he walked very slowly, a speed she could easily keep up with. She thought he was taking care of herself, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.
This breeder seems to be quite easy to get along with?
However, no one knew what she was thinking about, the little girl's eyes dimmed again. She followed Su Ci quietly, revealing that numbness and vague sadness again.
A Yan turned around and looked at her.
From his perspective, he could see the resentment that was difficult to discern with the naked eye, gathering around the little girl like fish smelling fishy smell.
The little girl's negative emotions attracted resentment, and those resentments affected her. In turn, her negative emotions fostered resentment.
In fact, this is why scientists at the institute say that red mist is proliferative.
Because negative emotions are the best nourishment for resentment. Wherever there are negative emotions, there will be resentment. And as long as it is a living thing, even if it is not very intelligent, there will be negative emotions.
A Yan looked at the new cub with some worry. Her negative emotions were too strong, much stronger than those of the other cubs.
If it were before, she probably wouldn't have been able to stay in the brooding center for more than a few days before the situation would have gotten very bad. Fortunately...
A Yan looked up at Su Ci. Seeing the young man's calm appearance, the uneasiness in his heart was immediately dispelled.
With Susu around, things like that will never happen again.
Su Ci seemed to have sensed something and lowered his head slightly, and saw the child looking at him with a smile. In a trance, he seemed to see the strange boy again...
Now, it’s actually not unfamiliar anymore.
He chuckled slightly, then reached out and rubbed the child's head.
Behind them, Xiao Xuewei lowered her head, thinking about something, while the little fat bird standing on her shoulder was secretly observing the breeder in front of her.
Suddenly, he saw his hands on his sides, rubbing them. A hint of doubt and confusion appeared in his small eyes that looked like black grapes.
This breeder...
Did his hand suddenly cramp?
Under the gaze of the fat boy, Su Ci brought them to the bus stop. Just as the floating bus arrived at the station, they got on the bus together.
Xiao Xuewei was silent all the way. Although Xiao Feichu kept teasing her after noticing that she was unhappy, he couldn't make her happy.
On the other side, Su Ci had just sat down when the communicator rang.
[Administrative Department - Guo Hui]: Keeper Su, this is the file information of the new cubs. Please take a look, it may be helpful to you.
[Administrative Department-Guo Hui]: Documents.
Su Ci replied with an "OK", then opened the file and browsed it online.
The file opened, and at the very beginning was a photo of Xiao Xuewei. She must have been only four or five years old when the photo was taken. She was wearing exquisite clothes and smiling at the camera with her eyes curved. She looked cute and energetic.
It can be seen that this is a child who grew up in happiness. Although she has not grown rabbit ears yet, it does not reduce her cuteness at all.
Su Ci continued to flip through the pages, and detailed information came into view.
Name: Ashley
Date of Birth: July 1324
Nationality: Tess Empire
Ferocious Beast Bloodline: Dragon Rabbit
Background:
Born in the Aixi Empire, she was the daughter of the former prince of the Aixi Empire. After the change of power in the Aixi Empire, she immigrated to the Tes Empire with her parents. During the escape, she was hunted down and both her parents died.
He was sent to the orphanage in the capital of the Tes Empire at the end of 1329 and was adopted in 1330. In the same year, he was sent back to the orphanage because his adoptive owner was seriously injured and dying due to his madness.
After review, it was determined that although the cub was not the child of an interstellar criminal, its other conditions met the requirements for the Prison Planet Nursery, so it was sent to Prison Planet for shelter.
It is already 1331. It probably took her quite a while on the road. By the time she arrived at Prison Star, it was already the next year.
Su Ci's gaze fell on the column of the ferocious beast's bloodline: the Dragon Rabbit.
He turned his head again and looked at the little girl sitting on the other side. She was wearing a pink skirt and looked soft, cute and well-behaved.
When the little fat bird looked at him warily, Su Ci withdrew his gaze.
It’s true that you can’t judge a book by its cover.
As for the detailed explanation of the Kicking Dragon Rabbit, Su Ci did not click on it. Judging from the name, one can probably see the characteristics of this ferocious beast.
He didn't take it too seriously, after all, it was just a cub that had just awakened.
but……
Su Ci touched his chin and couldn't help thinking: Rabbits seem to be quite good at digging holes?
The hover bus moved forward steadily and finally arrived at the stop outside the nursery.
Su Ci had no choice but to collect his wandering thoughts, put away the light curtain, waved to the little girl, and then took her out of the car.
Xiao Xuewei looked at his back, recalling how he checked the light screen just now. She couldn't help biting her lip, then stood up and followed him.
After getting off the hover bus, Xiao Xuewei finally saw the nursery, which would be where she would live for at least the next ten years.
Looking at the metal-style building filled with a cold atmosphere, she felt even more depressed.
As they were about to enter the nursery, Xiao Xuewei finally couldn't help but speak. She asked, "Have you read my information?"
Su Ci stopped and turned to look at her, and A Yan also cast a curious look at her.
The negative emotions in the little girl were at least twice as strong as when she first left the administrative building, and at this moment, the speed at which they were rising was even faster.
"I didn't mean to..."
As soon as the little girl said this, her eyes turned red, filled with guilt and fear, "I didn't mean to hurt her..."
This "she" must be referring to the adoptive family member she injured after she went berserk, right? Su Ci thought.
He nodded, but the girl didn't want his response. She looked at Su Ci and tears began to fall.
"Madam... is she dead?" Xiao Xuewei was immersed in her past memories, her emotions becoming very unstable. "Can you tell me?"
"They all say that the lady is still alive... But if that's the case, why wouldn't she want to come and see me? I know I was wrong... I really didn't mean to..."
The little girl covered her eyes with her hands and began to sob.
"I miss her so much... and my father and mother... Woohoo, was I sent here because I did something wrong?"
Perhaps the red mist had too much of an impact on her, and the overly strong negative emotions directly overwhelmed her, so that she collapsed in front of Su Ci when they met for the first time.
Su Ci looked at her and couldn't help but sigh.
The cubs that can be sent here really... each one has some big problems.
The little fat chirp that was originally standing on the little girl's shoulder had already flown up anxiously. It chirped and kept rubbing against Xiao Xuewei's cheek, but it was of no use.
Seeing that Xiao Xuewei was about to go berserk, Su Ci finally raised his hand and gently placed it on the top of her head.
The little girl covered her eyes with her hands, raised her head and sobbed. Her red rabbit eyes looked at Su Ci, looking so pitiful.
"I don't know what the situation is with the lady you mentioned," Su Ci said, "but your file only mentioned that she was seriously injured and dying, so she must be alive."
"Really...really?" Xiao Xuewei asked eagerly.
She didn't know why, but when she saw the keeper, she felt very familiar with him. He seemed different from other adults, which made her subconsciously believe what he said.
Su Ci's palm glowed slightly. While dispelling the resentment that continued to permeate her body, he said, "I won't lie to you."
Xiao Xuewei suddenly felt relieved. All the emotions that had been accumulating in her heart for a long time seemed to have been vented through crying, making her feel a lot more relaxed.
Then she heard the young man continue, "You were not sent here by mistake."
He paused briefly and continued, "Perhaps later, you will be glad that you came here."
That should be possible, right? Su Ci thought. Although she had to help him farm, he would also pay her accordingly. At least he would guide her on how to use the power of her bloodline correctly.
Xiao Xuewei sniffed and slowly calmed down.
She felt that she felt much better after she said what she had been holding back in her heart. Of course, from her invisible perspective, there was a faint halo surrounding her, preventing the resentment from getting close to her.
Perhaps this is the main reason why her mood has improved.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you." After her mood improved, Xiao Xuewei became a little shy.
She wiped away her tears with a red face, and when she wanted to salute Su Ci again, she saw the young man stand up straight and then continue to walk lazily towards the gate of the nursery.
Xiao Xuewei looked at his back, but still insisted on completing the ceremony.
This was something her mother taught her and she didn't want to forget.
Then, she brought the little fat bird and followed Su Ci, looking around curiously. At this time, she showed the innocence and curiosity that a cub of this age should have.
When Xiao Xuewei actually stepped into the door of the nursery, she blinked strangely.
The air... seems to have become fresher?
At this time, she heard the breeder say: "From 6 am to 6 pm every day is your free time. As long as you don't disturb others, you can do whatever you want."
Xiao Xuewei couldn't help but listen carefully.
"After 6pm, all cubs must stay in their rooms and remain quiet. As for the rest, you can ask the other cubs tomorrow."
It was now past six and the cubs had all gone back to their rooms.
"What if I go out and accidentally go berserk?" Xiao Xuewei asked.
When she was sent back to the welfare home and on the way to the orphanage, she was locked up in a room alone. She didn't want to hurt others again, so she was very self-conscious.
"It's okay, there's no need to worry about that."
Su Ci didn't explain too much because... he was hungry.
After handing the little girl and the titmouse to 4586, Su Ci took A Yan back to the dormitory and went to look for food.
Xiao Xuewei followed 4586 and went to the fifth floor together.
"Dear Weiwei, this will be your room from now on! Feel free to call me if you need anything." 4586's voice was filled with enthusiasm. "I'll prepare something delicious for you."
Before leaving, the nanny robot said to her, "Weiwei, your skirt is so beautiful! Huahua will definitely like it!"
Huahua? Was she also a cub from the nursery? Xiao Xuewei smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. The flowers on your body are also very beautiful."
"I think so too!" 4586 left happily.
Xiao Xuewei looked around her new room. Although it was simpler than any room she had lived in before, she felt more relaxed than she had in a long time when she sat on the small bed.
I wonder if the other cubs in the brooding center are as easy to get along with as the keepers?
When 4586 brought her dinner, he saw the little girl curled up on the bed with her eyes closed, and fell asleep.
The rabbit ears hanging low behind his head were slightly raised, in a state of complete relaxation...
I believe she will have a good dream tonight.
