Chapter 75 Endless Learning Journey (12) Jinjiang Exclusively Authorized First...
The other roommates have returned to the dormitory.
Even for evil spirits, the dormitory is a relatively safe place.
There was a faint sound of water in the bathroom. Luo Rou was sitting on her bed embroidering a piece of bright red cloth. As soon as Ani came in, she bent down, put her hands on the bed rail, and covered her face with the veil, but one could vaguely feel the cool sight under the red veil.
Ani touched the bottom of the backpack and found that the broken biscuits were gone, but there were still a few hard candies left. She handed one to Luo Rou's bed.
Luo Rou wrapped her tongue around the candy and took it back.
She She leaned half of her body out of the window. The big window of the dormitory was half open, and the hissing sound came out from time to time. After Ani came back, she turned her head and looked back: "You're back? What did the school doctor say?"
Ani leaned over the table and looked at her: "What can it cure?"
"It didn't work," She She understood, "The medicine prescribed by the school doctor was somewhat useful, but most of the time it was the wrong medicine. I heard that many students went to see the doctor, some said it worked, some said it didn't, but when they came out they were all very quiet and honest... Don't you want to make the bat behave?"
Ani paused for a moment and said, "... the results of those who have been treated are not very good, right?"
"How do you know?" She She was surprised.
Ani was speechless for a while: "Although I don't know the academic performance of my classmates, I know their medical skills."
The sound of Luo Rou licking hard candy came from the side. She She continued to lean on the window. She spat out a letter and hissed, "The doctor is already a good person."
Ani walked a few steps closer and glanced out the window: "If you use this moral standard, then I am a kind and friendly person."
In the distance outside the window, several hyenas were tearing apart a bloody corpse.
This scene appeared on the lawn of Crescent Private College. Annie was not surprised at all, but her eyelids twitched. She She next to him continued, "You are a good person—well-known far and wide."
Ani laughed and asked, "Have you ever been to the principal's office?"
She She paused, turned her head again, and stared at her with her narrow vertical pupils: "Why are you asking this? You want to go? You can't get in, it's very dangerous... No, it can't be said to be dangerous, it's very weird."
Ani met her gaze and waited for her to continue.
Their eyes met for a moment, and She She realized that she had no intention of being persuaded to quit, and said, "The entire F7 is a huge maze. Only students with outstanding monthly exam scores will be taken there and awarded certificates."
"Since the certificates are being handed out, someone must have seen the principal."
"I have seen it." She She nodded, "But those good students all went crazy later. They all had different appearances. The better their grades were, the faster they went crazy. You shouldn't study too hard. Being smart has its disadvantages."
The bathroom door creaked, and Zhang Mei came in dripping wet, twisting her hair, wearing a bathrobe, and shivering from cold.
She sat down at her seat and picked up the hair dryer. As the sound of the wind was blowing, Ani continued to chat with She She. The sound of the wind blowing in her ears kept shifting until Ani turned around and glanced - Zhang Mei stopped beside her bed.
"Don't you want to go check?" She She suddenly reminded, "Your food reserves."
"When will I have reserves..." Annie said subconsciously. She paused and suddenly opened her eyes wide. She guessed something and stepped forward to block Zhang Mei's sight.
The buzzing sound of the wind became farther away. Annie noticed the messily torn quilt. She slowly reached over and pulled open the corner of the quilt. First, a few emerald green and slightly damp vines emerged from inside. The color was bright, and between the green leaves were a few budding flowers. The buds were newly grown, and they seemed to be holding a pool of water. When pinched, they came out moist and shiny.
Ani grabbed the vines. These thin vines were particularly tender. When she closed her hands, they began to tremble violently in her palms. She let out a breath, lifted the quilt and pulled out the thin vine.
The person on the other side stubbornly refused to go out, and instead used force to drag her inside.
Annie was stunned for a moment, but didn't argue. She lifted the quilt and crawled in.
Under the cloth was a snow-white waist, and one could easily hug Ling Xiao's light body with one's hands. The first thing Annie's hand touched was a piece of moist skin, and she suddenly realized why Ling Xiao was hiding.
His clothes were not properly on, his body was burning with fever, and his bones felt limp in his hands.
Only a few vines still had some strength left.
Ani went over and hugged him.
Ling Xiao seemed to resist in form, he curled his knuckles to block it, but he was too weak and Annie didn't even notice such a weak resistance. She reached out and held his cheek, smelling the rich floral fragrance and a dizzy smell of illness on him.
"You," she sighed, "have learned your lesson now. Why don't you just stay by my side all the time? Aren't you afraid that others will eat you?"
Ani pulled down a piece of the quilt, revealing half of his face. Ling Xiao lowered his eyelids, and his eyelashes moved hazily. His lips were burning hot but still moist, and his eyes were also wet, like the newly grown buds on the vine, which would ooze water when touched.
It was as if someone had done him a great injustice and bullied him. Annie stared at his expression for a while, and her mood strangely improved. She licked her lips, leaned over and pressed her nose against his, feeling Ling Xiao's moist and hot breath gently falling on her skin.
"Brother Lingxiao." she called.
The other person reacted a little, raised his eyes, his eyes were full of tears, but he tried his best to hold them back and didn't cry. Ling Xiao was stubborn by nature and cried hard on the bed, but now he bit his lips and held back, not shedding a single tear.
A Ni called him again, and Ling Xiao finally loosened his teeth from biting his lower lip, his voice drifting: "You're back...are you trying to chase me away?"
...What kind of logic is this?
What's going on in his head? A Ni pinched his chin in confusion, looked at Ling Xiao, and followed his words: "You hid in my quilt without my consent, what did you do?"
Ling Xiao's ears were red from fever. He stared at Ani's expression in a daze and murmured, "Then I'll leave."
His thin shoulders trembled slightly, and he immediately looked away after saying this, lowered his head, went under Ani's arm, and climbed out of her arms.
Ani lowered her eyes and watched him avoid her. Ling Xiao was androgynous, with a slender waist, a nice back and a pair of long legs. That waist could be pinched with just two hands, and if you clamped it hard enough, it would leave a red mark... The scene of the other person trying to escape in the hotel suddenly appeared in her mind.
She reached out and held the other person's waist from the side.
Annie's hands were white and well-proportioned, with calluses on the inside of her knuckles from repairing starships and modifying weapons with alloy parts. She pressed her thin fingers against the part of Lingxiao's waist that was not covered by the corner of his clothes, and grabbed him back.
The scent of grass and flowers fell into my arms again.
This process was too familiar, but this time the opponent had no power to resist. Annie could feel his body trembling slightly.
"You want to run away without saying anything." Ani complained softly, "You have become an escapist, do you know that?"
Ling Xiao buried his head in her shoulder. It took a lot of effort for him to restrain himself from crying. His whole body was limp in her arms, as if his spine had been pulled out. He could only wrap around her softly and limply, using his vines to gently and tightly twist her torso.
He panted slightly and groaned softly when he was pulled back. Because a certain emotion filled the tone, the subconscious humming seemed so delicate.
Ani squeezed him hard, and Ling Xiao whimpered, like a kitten that would meow when being squeezed and pinched.
...that's so cute.
A Ni held his waist maliciously and pinched it again. His whole body was numb, and the tears in his eyes dripped through his eyelashes and fell silently on her shoulders. Ling Xiao took a deep breath and stopped her: "I know... don't pinch."
His weak hands blocked Ani's knuckles.
"I'm sorry..." Ling Xiao apologized in a weak voice, "Let me stay one more night, no, two hours, I will be able to adapt quickly..."
"Adapting to what? High temperatures?"
Ling Xiao pursed his lips and didn't answer. Annie's hands had moved from his lower back to somewhere else, and she took a handful of the delicate vine tail and rubbed it. The young man in her arms stiffened slightly, and his waist was tense. He subconsciously pressed against her body. Annie turned her leg and pressed him with her knee. His tense strength disappeared again, and he just lowered his head to breathe, holding back his sobs and humming, swallowing back his tears.
"Adapt to the unexpected." That's all he said, and he edged back a little.
Ani sniffed the suddenly strong scent on him: "Sweet...the smell of pollen."
"Being too sensitive is not a good thing." Ling Xiao said softly, his voice slightly hoarse, "Can I stay?"
"Sure." Annie agreed with a smile, and then deliberately said, "You'll have to rely on me in the end anyway, so why were you angry before?"
Ling Xiao looked at her, seemingly calm, but still angry when he spoke: "Because you gave too little, okay?"
"..." Ani was speechless for a moment. After a pause, she whispered, "Why are you sleeping with me? Aren't you afraid that I will rape you?"
After a while, Ani heard the person in her arms weakly utter a few words: "...That can only be considered adultery."
It seems so.
Compared with face and life, life still prevails. The vines of trumpet creeper carefully wrapped around Ani, and every green leaf clung to her with an inexplicable warmth. Ani made the bed, hugged Ling Xiao, pulled him over from the end of the bed, and let him lie down to rest.
Ling Xiao looked at her insecurely. When Annie covered herself with the quilt and tried to get up, several vines entangled her body again.
She stopped.
Ling Xiao looked at her and said softly, "Who are you looking for?"
"I'll find you some water to drink." Ani said helplessly. She reached out and took the vine off her body. The green vine bent around her fingers and pressed a tender flower into her palm.
It would be very painful for him if the flowers were plucked off, so Ani held the flowers without moving and signaled him with her eyes.
"No." Ling Xiao said, "Don't go down. I can't lie down alone. I just want to hide."
How could he say such soft words...
Annie thought that he really liked to sneak away through a crack, and was seduced by the warm and soft body next to her, so she moved back, hugged Ling Xiao and smoothed his hair.
He snuggled in Ani's arms.
Each soft vine was wrapped around her body as thin and tough as silk. His body unconsciously stuck to it, as if he wanted to sink all his roots into the trunk of the tree and climb up under the dense shade.
Ling Xiao fell asleep.
Annie hugged him and took out the ancient language book "Horticulture" that he threw to her from under the pillow. It was early in the morning and the dormitory supervisor had checked the dormitories. She turned on a small lamp to read the book.
There is actually some information about the historical evolution of the rattan tribe in it.
She was absorbed in reading, absorbing the information while thinking about getting excellent grades and going to the principal's office... A frosty hand pressed on the page.
A Ni's eyes moved slightly, and Ling Xiao in her arms slowly loosened the green vine that was wrapped around her, and asked softly: "The one you mentioned last time... Guoguo..."
"Hmm?" Ani turned her attention to him, "What's wrong?"
"Do you have a child?" Ling Xiao rested his head on her shoulder. "I know a few people who are very close to you."
"Yes," she said.
Ling Xiao was silent for a while, then continued to ask: "Who is it? Sorry... I care too much. You don't have to answer."
Ani thought for a moment and said, "My mentor."
She rested her chin on Ling Xiao's hair and turned the page of the book. "He is a good teacher who cares a lot about his people and his students. I learned something very strange from him... I don't know what it is. These strange, fragmented, weird thoughts occasionally pop up in other people... He worked very hard to have a baby."
Ling Xiao's breathing became a little disordered.
After a few seconds, he whispered, "Lin?"
"You know him." Ani said this first, and then thought of how she had publicly expressed her love and pursued him at the Hailan University selection competition, "Well, people who know me better should know him."
"Then why do you still want to have a baby?" Ling Xiao's voice was almost inaudible.
"Because I like children." Annie said, "I want many babies. Not only do I like them, but it is also my responsibility and my mission. I want to carry on the family line."
“…”
The other party was silent for a long time. When Ani thought he had fallen asleep again, she heard a muffled voice in her arms: "Continue the family line?"
"I want to have lots of daughters," she said. "Haven't you heard that the tentacle race likes to reproduce?"
This statement is quite true.
Ling Xiao took a breath and said, "Mermaids are a race that does not intermarry. You actually... Never mind. It turns out that you have no reproductive isolation from others. I should have thought of it a long time ago. You are a monster."
A tentacle stretched out from her waist and wrapped around a vine.
Ling Xiao felt the tentacles pulling at his flower bud. As soon as he touched the other party's tentacles, his legs became weak and his breathing stagnated. He said, "Then why did you come here? ... Where is the child? Are you going to ignore it after it is born?"
"I haven't given birth yet." She said, "I want to have a lot of money and a lot of power, and raise the teacher and the baby in my own palace. I will take care of the baby until she is independent and learn to be a good mother."
"You did it for the reward of the A-level hunting mission," Ling Xiao gradually remembered. He thought he was just a foil and didn't expect to be the winner, so he didn't remember the reward very clearly, "the ownership of a habitable planet and the honorary medal of the Free Alliance Star Sea Warrior."
In the chaotic era when the territories of various galaxies have not yet been demarcated, this medal of honor represents that a captain who has roamed the starry sea has temporarily chosen to side with the Alliance... Most of the seats in the Free Alliance's current parliament were determined by the competition and infighting among forces, and finally the division and demarcation.
Ani nodded and said, "If you have Guoguo, I will take good care of you and Guoguo just like I take care of the teacher."
She spoke very seriously.
Under a small, not-too-bright light, the pair of pink pupils looked like stars, staring at him. This was probably the most valuable and firmest promise Ling Xiao had ever heard from her.
He stared blankly without saying a word.
Ani hugged him again, touched his cheek, and said in a more relaxed tone: "The fever has gone down, are you feeling better?"
Ling Xiao shook his head.
"Ah? Why?" Ani frowned and looked up and down. Ling Xiao grabbed her hand and pressed it on his chest. He felt better, but his voice was still soft: "It hurts."
Does your chest hurt... Ani came to her senses and rubbed it slowly.
Ling Xiao slowly let go of the breath and felt a little better, but it was still like a long needle piercing his heart. With every breath, it pierced his heart like a needle. He suddenly grabbed Ani's wrist and whispered, "You are just responsible, not in love with him."
"No," Ani rubbed his chest attentively, "I just like him very much."
"Then why are you and other people - cough." He said anxiously and choked. Annie felt the chest under her fingers rising and falling violently. His flat chest seemed to be softer. She wondered if it was because of the illness.
"...I'm sorry." Ling Xiao took a breath and said intermittently, "I'm sorry, I asked too many questions. This is actually none of my business, please don't mind, Miss Annie."
This title made Ani raise her eyelids and look at him.
Under the dim light, one could only see a pair of watery eyes and purple jade pupils. He was handsome, with slightly furrowed brows and a calm expression.
But Ani felt that he seemed to be very uncomfortable and irritable.
"Because," after a few seconds, she finally answered, "I'm not in love with you so much that I have to give up my mission. I have to have at least three...four children? In fact, I am very sincere to everyone. Maybe I am a little overbearing sometimes...but I don't lie, and I rarely hide anything. I will answer whatever you want to ask. Some books say that my situation is called 'my heart is divided into many pieces, and each piece falls in love with a different person'..."
Ling Xiao murmured weakly: "What a crappy book! I'd better not learn to read."
"Hey." Annie stopped her hand dissatisfiedly. He grabbed Annie's wrist and patted it, frowning uncomfortably. Annie continued to rub it gently. He took a deep breath and leaned over to hug her.
Ani let him hold her.
After a few minutes, he said, "Turn off the lights, okay?"
Annie: "Can't you sleep?" The tentacles reached out and turned off the light.
"No, but I want you to sleep with me." He was a little depressed. This sentence sounded especially like Lin's tone. He also had something stuck in his throat and couldn't say a word. "Don't read human books anymore. They are all nonsense."
"……oh."
-
After that night, Ling Xiao became a non-staff member of Dormitory 404.
He often appears inside or outside the small skylight, or on Ani's bed. Everyone else has gotten used to Ling Xiao's scent, and even Luo Rou, who hates strangers, has accepted the fact that Ani has a pot of green plants.
Ani tried to try her luck at F7, but just as She She said, F7 was a large maze shrouded in fog, with corridors connected to corridors. No matter how long she walked, she would always end up at the school's corridors.
But as long as you turn back and walk for about half an hour each time, you can get back to the elevator entrance of F7.
It seems that only those with excellent test scores and who are taken to the principal's office by the dean of studies to be praised and awarded certificates can be admitted.
Most of the instructors teach according to the set procedures, and the content is all-encompassing. While attending the class, Annie also completed tasks that her classmates occasionally asked for help on.
Her student reputation brought convenience, often triggering small tasks on her classmates. Combined with the harmonious coexistence in the dormitory and the accumulated values over time, on the day when the third week of the weekly test ended, the harmony level of Dormitory 404 reached 50.
As a prompt appeared, this place was listed as a safe house.
No more malicious NPCs will spawn in the dormitory.
Annie raised her head from the book. The other tentacles were still rolling up the electronic pen and the recording chip. She looked around and found that many details of Dormitory 404 had changed.
The large clumps of hair that occasionally appeared on the ground disappeared.
The light tube that Luo Rou used to hang up the lamp became brand new, and the beams were covered with a new layer of suspended ceiling.
The doors and windows have become newer. The broken door no longer creaks when the wind blows, but is firmly closed. A green code floats on the brand new mechanical lock, and it has been upgraded to an energy lock.
Annie turned her head and looked at Zhang Mei who was blow-drying her hair.
Zhang Mei sits there every day when she is not in class. At this moment, she stared at the mirror blankly, holding the hair dryer stiffly in her hands. Her long hair, which was black and tight and always covered her face like a steel plate, was suddenly blown away by the hot wind and tilted to both sides.
Revealing a face with half a red birthmark.
Ani moved back, and the chair made a rubbing sound on the ground. Zhang Mei covered her face in panic, but she saw Ani's eyes looking at her in the mirror. There was nothing strange in her eyes. She held her chin and said, "So this is what you look like."
Zhang Mei sat motionless.
But after saying this, Ani went back to writing without making any comments, as if she didn't care about her appearance.
After a few minutes, Zhang Mei realized that she really didn't care.
Her body slowly relaxed, and she fiddled with her hair, trying to cover the half of her face with the birthmark, and continued to comb her hair as usual.
The harmony in dormitory 404 has been steadily increasing. The roommates have become more cheerful, and even the dormitory manager just passes by the door and no longer opens the door to check carefully.
Occasionally, Annie could hear the shrill screams of the dormitory supervisors dragging away students who did not meet the requirements after checking the dormitories at night.
These students have NPCs generated.
There were hunters too, and often after the sounds of gunfire and the vibrations of laser weapons, the heavy footsteps of the dormitory manager dragging with chains could be heard again, dragging away a bloody, limbless corpse.
Until the night before the exam, Annie was reading a book while rubbing Ling Xiao's chest with her little tentacles. Ever since he said he was not feeling well that night, he seemed to have never been feeling well.
And Ling Xiao must be really uncomfortable, his physical reaction can't lie. Ani rubbed it as usual for a while, and her mind, which was filled with those weird knowledge of the side door, suddenly withdrew for a moment——
She spoke slowly, without much thought: "Your breasts have become soft."
“…”
Ani suddenly realized what she had said. She felt a little embarrassed and said, "Maybe I rubbed it."
It’s better not to make up for it.
After she finished speaking, Ling Xiao's expression became very strange. He didn't speak immediately. He sat there for a while and said slowly: "You rubbed it... but don't say that in the future."
The small tentacle that was rubbing his chest stopped, and the tender pink tip was suspended in the air. Although it had no eyes, its secondary brain clearly showed that it was thinking.
Ling Xiao pressed the tentacle back to his chest and said, "Or do you want to learn like the other tentacles?"
The small tentacle silently attached itself to his body again.
It continued to rub, and Ling Xiao slowly exhaled, feeling a little better. He met Ani's gaze and said, "It may be a little softer... or a little bigger, it's normal, don't worry, this is how the Vine Clan behaves."
"The Vine Clan..."
"I am from the Vine Clan," Ling Xiao said, "What I am like is what the Vine Clan is like. Don't just believe the information you see. You have to combine theoretical knowledge with practice."
"That makes sense." Ani stroked her chin and asked curiously, "You have such a good learning method, why do you still only read comic books?"
Ling Xiao glanced at the book in his hand.
Plant care after cuttings
...Giving birth to a child with tentacle monsters should be similar to insemination, right?
He was silent for a while and said, "... leave me alone."
