Chapter 164
When they walked out of the logistics building, Wen Yan and the others finally knew where the strong smell of garlic came from in the building.
Shi Yjiang was seen walking in front of them. When the door of the logistics building slowly opened, he decisively took out a bottle of spray from his waist bag and sprayed it towards the outside of the door at lightning speed.
A pungent smell of garlic filled the air. Wen Yan and her daughter couldn't help but cover their noses. Even Li Sinian and his wife and the adjutant frowned.
Of course, their doubts were soon answered. They saw that the red mist that filled the outside of the building, apart from the appearance of the garlic smell, actually fled to the surroundings at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Is this garlic spray actually used to deal with this unknown red fog?
"Okay, let's go."
Shi Yjiang put away the garlic spray, and after observing that there was indeed no danger outside, he nodded to the person behind him.
Seeing that everyone except the young man named Zhou Yan had a puzzled look on their faces, he explained, "This garlic spray was developed by the plantation at our base. It can effectively dispel pollutants."
Then he soothed them, "Don't panic. Among all the bases on Prison Star, our 24th Base is the safest."
Perhaps it was because of the mutated garlic, or perhaps it was because of the presence of Keeper Su, but during the half month when the red fog swept back, no major accidents occurred at Base 24.
Except for the unrest in the east of the base due to the gathering of a lot of mutant insects, the base has been quite peaceful so far.
Although the smell of garlic is pungent, people get used to it after a while, and now more and more people dare to go out to work.
Everyone found that apart from the difficulty in seeing and the emotions being easily affected in the red fog, there didn't seem to be much difference from usual. In fact, their meals had been better recently, and the number of times they received fruit from the plantation had increased significantly.
I heard that a large part of the increase in the production capacity of the breeding farm is due to the contribution of breeder Su.
Now, no matter who it is, no one dares to underestimate the keeper of the nursery, and many of them even want to get close to him.
Unfortunately, Keeper Su closed all communication channels from strangers, and all departments in the base were warned to restrain their subordinates and not disturb Keeper Su.
Even their logistics department received such a private reminder.
Shi Yjiang recalled the various changes in the base over the past half month, and couldn't help feeling emotional.
"In short, you don't have to worry too much, and..." He paused, then continued, "As long as you stay in the nursery and work hard, your safety will be absolutely fine."
"There are quite a few people in the base right now who are desperately trying to get a job at the nursery."
With his comfort, Wen Yan finally calmed down.
However, Li Sinian frowned slightly, and had some doubts about the truthfulness of Shi Yjiang's words, but he did not say it out loud. After all, Shi Yjiang's words were mainly directed to the two new trainee breeders.
Afterwards, Shi Yjiang led everyone on the teleportation platform to the administrative building. After handing everyone over to Guo Hui, he left.
Guo Hui first received Li Sinian and his wife, while Wen Yan, her daughter, and A Yan waited in the corridor for a while.
The little girl with a pair of semicircular panda ears snuggled up to her mother, secretly turned her head, and looked at A Yan with some curiosity.
And A Yan was also looking at her.
Looking at the pair of furry ears on her head, A Yan pursed his lips slightly, feeling a little unhappy.
From today on, he is the new keeper of the nursery. As an adult human, he naturally cannot run around with animal ears and tail on his head.
Without ears and a tail, his attraction to Su Su would probably be reduced by half, right? This made him somewhat unmotivated.
And now, there's a new cub.
But this cub...
A Yan felt the blood scent of the little girl and couldn't help but tilt his head slightly, thinking in his heart: Could it be such a coincidence?
In the office.
After a brief greeting, Li Sinian got down to business.
First of all, it was about Xuewei's adoption. No matter what, the original purpose of their trip was to take their adopted daughter back home.
Originally, Li Sinian thought this should be the least controversial, but after he finished speaking, Guo Hui seemed to be hesitant to speak.
He couldn't help but pause and asked, "Is there any problem?"
"You can go and see Xuewei, but whether she can leave with you depends on her and the breeder's opinions," Guo Hui said cautiously.
"We've already discussed this during the call." Li Sinian whispered.
"As long as you have the signature of breeder Su, you can take her away." Guo Hui said.
Feeling that the breeder Su seemed to have a very high say, and recalling what Shi Yjiang had just said, Li Sinian did not dwell on this issue anymore.
At this moment, Yan Ya finally couldn't help but speak: "Madam, I would like to ask, are there a pair of red-tailed lion siblings in the nursery?"
Guo Hui nodded. "Are you talking about Rong Heng and Fu Qiu?"
Rong Heng...Fu Qiu...
Yan Ya silently repeated the two names in her mind, and then spoke again: "Yes, it's them. Can I see their information?"
She had to find out what was going on with these two children.
Is it possible that they are sick and their bodies have stopped growing, so they look younger than their actual age? If so, there is a high probability that they are her children!
However, Guo Hui did not agree to her request.
She looked at Li Sinian and his wife, thought for a moment, and said, "Do you want to adopt these two children?"
Yan Ya paused, and Li Sinian nodded.
That’s not wrong…
"I'm sorry, the children in the nursery are different from those in the welfare home. Their circumstances are special and theoretically they are not accepted for adoption." Guo Hui said seriously.
If Xuewei was not their adopted daughter, and given the couple's good conditions, the Star Alliance would not have made an exception and allowed them to take the child away. As for other children, it would naturally be even more impossible.
Seeing that Guo Hui still refused to give in, Yan Ya couldn't help but redden her eyes, and then explained to her the whole story.
"I can prove that I did lose two children. I can provide their detailed information. After you read it, you will know how similar they are..."
Yan Ya started searching in the communicator, but Guo Hui held her hand and stopped her.
"I'm also very sorry about your situation, but I'm just following regulations. I don't have the authority to show you the child's information."
Guo Hui looked apologetic. "You can apply to the Star Alliance, or..."
"Or what?" Yan Ya asked quickly, and Li Sinian's eyes were also fixed on Guo Hui.
"You can ask Keeper Su for his advice," Guo Hui said. "He's fully responsible for the cubs now."
It’s this breeder Su again!
Could it be that a keeper at a cub nursery has such high authority?
Li Sinian and his wife looked at each other in bewilderment, but finally compromised. Applying to the Star Alliance was not easy, and they had connections this time so that the approval was so fast, but it was impossible for the other party to make exceptions for them every time.
Since the breeder is at Base 24, there is no need to go far away.
Finally, they left Guo Hui's office, and A Yan and Wen Yan and her daughter went in to complete the entry procedures.
With the help of the base's intelligent computer, A Yan's information had already been entered, and it was completely in compliance with the procedures. He is now an apprentice breeder recruited by the 24th Base through formal channels.
As for Wen Yan...
"You are..."
Guo Hui looked at Wen Yan, paused, and did not mention her sad story. Instead, she lowered her head and looked at the little girl standing next to her mother.
"Is this Colonel Lazer's child?" she asked.
Wen Yan nodded, her eyes slightly red, but she controlled her emotions well.
"Well, her name is Lai Xixi." Wen Yan said, "Xixi, call her auntie."
They were talking in low voices and didn't notice that A Yan, who was waiting at the next seat, was looking at them with a strange look in his eyes.
"You guys should live well here from now on."
Guo Hui touched the top of the little girl's head. "The conditions at the nursery are much better now than before. With Keeper Su here, Xixi's blood frenzy problem will definitely not get any worse."
"Yes! It was because I heard about this breeder Su that I decided to bring Xixi here." Wen Yan seemed to have grasped the last straw. "How can we get him to agree to help us?"
Theoretically speaking, as long as the child is from the nursery, there is no reason for the breeder not to help. However, thinking of Su Ci's strength and strange temper, Guo Hui couldn't say for sure.
"Ask this question when you see him."
A Yan couldn't help but curl his lips as he listened to their conversation. These humans... finally realized how powerful Su Su is!
Susu’s brilliance will never be snatched away by anyone else.
very nice.
A Yan was in a good mood.
When they came to the corridor, nanny robot No. 4586 also arrived here.
The robot has a round head and a round brain, and its body is covered with yellow flowers. The colors are bright and vivid, and it looks childish and cute.
When it appeared, Lacey couldn't take her eyes off it.
4586's electronic eye scanned everyone and finally landed accurately on Lacy.
"Hello, lovely Sissi! I'm Nanny Robot 4586. I'll help the keepers take care of you and make sure you're happy every day, okay?"
The nanny robot's voice is so soft, cute and energetic that it's hard to dislike it.
At least, Lacey liked it very much.
"Okay~" she responded happily, and then said, "The little flowers on your body are so beautiful, did you draw them on yourself?"
"No," 4586 said, "This was drawn for me by our super cute little Lihua. Isn't it beautiful?"
As it spoke, the nanny robot turned around to restore itself.
"Little Lihua is so amazing!"
"Yes, our little Lihua is amazing! When you meet, you will definitely become good friends."
"Really?"
"Uh-huh, do you want to be friends with Xiao Lihua?"
"I do!" Xixi nodded vigorously, and her cute and innocent look was particularly lively.
The cub and the robot were communicating as if no one was around, which left Wen Yan and Li Sinian stunned.
They had never seen such a human-like robot before!
Even among those advanced nanny robots with set personalities, it seems rare to see one that can communicate with cubs as smoothly as the nanny robot in front of us.
They even couldn't help but wonder, could there be a real person inside this nanny robot?
And Yan Ya soon noticed something.
She couldn't help but ask, "Little Lihua...does she mean Fuqiu?"
On the way to Prison Star, she got a few more videos from Wen Yan. She watched them several times every day and naturally knew that the little red-tailed lion girl loved painting very much.
Sure enough, 4586 nodded and said, "Yes, this is Qiuqiu's nickname."
Then it greeted Wen Yan again, but when it looked at A Yan, the robot's originally smooth and cheerful electronic sound suddenly paused.
A Yan smiled and said, "Hello, 4586."
4586 stared at him for a long moment before regaining his lively voice and saying, "Hello, Yanyan."
Then he changed the subject, "Then let's go back to the brooding house!"
A Yan looked at the robot that seemed to be fleeing in panic, but the smile on his face did not change.
Speaking of artificial intelligence with self-awareness, 4586 should actually be even earlier than the intelligent brain of Base 24. However, compared with the base intelligent brain with huge computing power, 4586's intelligence is obviously not enough.
There are many things that it cannot understand, but it has the keen intuition of a living being. For example, it instinctively feels fear towards A Yan who masters the rules.
Wen Yan and her daughter and Yan Ya didn't feel anything. Only Li Sinian, who possessed great strength and combat experience, glanced at A Yan with a sense of realization, but couldn't see anything from him.
This young man looks gentle and harmless, especially when he smiles, which still carries a hint of youthfulness and innocence that makes it easy for people to let down their guard.
Li Sinian shook his head and followed the nanny robot.
The group took the teleporter to the entrance of the nursery. As they left the platform, 4586 reminded them again, "Follow me closely. Don't get lost in the red fog."
Then it took Sissi's hand and walked down from the teleportation platform.
Because the distance was short, and 4586 was not a human being after all, it was not as cautious as Shi Yjiang, so it did not use garlic spray.
So, the accident happened.
After stepping down from the teleportation platform and entering the red fog, the little girl, who was originally looking around curiously, suddenly looked painful.
Her expression gradually became ferocious, the kindness and friendliness in her eyes disappeared, and the tiny teeth in her mouth also turned into animal fangs.
[Alarm, alarm! The cub has been detected entering a frenzy. Please take immediate action!]
The alarm on 4586 rang after a long absence.
"Sissi!"
Wen Yan noticed something was wrong at the first moment. Her face changed drastically and she rushed forward, wanting to hug her daughter. However, she didn't expect Lai Xixi to dodge her and break free from the robotic arm of 4586.
She let out a sound like a wild beast, but did not attack Wen Yan and 4586. Instead, after looking at her mother, she turned around and ran into the red fog.
"Xixi, come back!" Wen Yan hurriedly stood up and wanted to chase after him, but was hugged by 4586.
"It's dangerous in the red fog, we can't go there." 4586 said anxiously.
Meanwhile, another figure had already transformed into an arrow, running towards the direction the child disappeared in. "You stay here! I'll go after her! Don't move, wait for me!"
Li Sinian rushed into the red fog to track down the little girl who disappeared in the fog.
Yan Ya hurriedly calmed down Wen Yan who was struggling frantically. Just as she was about to call A Yan for help, she found that the young man was no longer around.
And in the nursery.
Rong Heng, who was acting as a model for his sister with a flower pinned on his head, suddenly looked around outside the greenhouse.
"A cub has gone berserk?" He looked around the green space. "Who's outside?"
Not all the cubs were in the green space. Rong Heng thought that one of their companions had sneaked out of the nursery, and that was why something happened.
He quickly handed Xiao Lihua to Xuewei and said, "Go call Susu for help. I'll go out and take a look first!"
Then he ran to the gate of the brooding house.
When Rong Heng arrived at the door and climbed over the wall because he had no authority, he saw something running past him. Just as he was about to chase it, he saw another figure appear in the red fog.
That figure and aura made Rong Heng feel unfamiliar.
Thinking of the humanoid monster in the red fog, Rong Heng cautiously drew out the small sword from his spirit storage bag.
"Stop!" he shouted.
