Chapter 163 Another Life Don’t mess with mermaids in the breeding season, and don’t mess with…
The service robot that was supposed to go out remained where it was.
Bai Ling turned his head and asked a strange question quietly: "Have you ever stolen anything?"
Robot: "Why do you ask?"
Bai Ling stared at the ceiling and said to himself, "I have stolen before, and I have stolen a lot..."
He seemed to just want to find someone to talk to. It didn't matter who the person was, what mattered was being present at the moment.
Robot: "What have you stolen? Give me an example."
It was clearly a cold mechanical voice, but it somehow gave people a sense of willingness to continue the conversation.
Bai Ling thought silently, maybe he needed a priest. He should have crept into the little wooden confessional, passed through the stained glass window of morality, and buried himself in the black robe of his priest in order to gain complicity in sin.
He will say: I am guilty.
The other party will say: On behalf of the empire, I forgive you, child, this is not your fault.
Then he put his hand under the priest's black robe, and they both went to hell.
The little robot in front of me obviously doesn't have so many functions. But something is better than nothing.
Bai Ling then calmly recounted the events: "When I was in kindergarten, I stole peanuts from the table. When I was seven, I stole pigeons from the square to barbecue. When I was eight, I picked up a box of crayons on the road. The madam in charge said that I stole them from the store, so she confiscated them and wanted to leave them to her son. So I actually went to her room and stole them back. Unfortunately, at that time, I had no experience as a thief..."
"What's wrong?"
"I was caught and beaten."
In a very light tone, his eyelashes drooped, and his lips curled, with a little imperceptible anger:
"She called me 'a little immigrant dog from Earth, born to dig holes.'"
The robot asked coldly, "Did you curse back?"
"I cursed back. My mom taught me that if you get bullied outside, you must fight back, otherwise they will go even further next time."
The robot commented sincerely: "She is such a good mother."
Bai Ling couldn't help but look at it, and his mood became slightly brighter. He really liked others praising his mother. He pursed his lower lip and said carefully:
"She is such a good mother... I have never seen such a good mother since then."
"Anything else?"
"Yes, the chick effect. I have recognized many things as my mother."
It thought: It turns out that I am not the only one who has been forced to dance for milk by him.
Bai Ling stammered, "Radiator Mother, Milk Truck Mother, Sculpture Mother... Oh, and Camera Mother."
It thinks: I am the only one.
The robot straightened its posture and asked, "Camera, aren't you afraid?"
It knows that many people in the Empire live in fear of surveillance. Every time they pass by a camera on the street, they tremble with fear, as if there is a devil inside that will jump out and eat them at any time.
Bai Ling thought for a moment and replied, "I am afraid, but with it, I dare to walk at night. I want to go out and play, but I don't have a mother, and I'm afraid of being kidnapped by bad guys, so I walk under the surveillance camera every day."
The other orphaned birds all found adoptive parents.
He is different, he recognizes the surveillance monster as his mother.
So he has been weird since he was a child and was excluded by everyone.
But Bai Ling still doesn't think there is any problem. He was a child who grew up in an Earth shelter, a cannibalistic society. The most important lesson his mother repeatedly taught him was "never trust humans."
Later, he met an adopted bird on the street. The bird's face looked nervous and inferior. I heard that her adoptive father often came in and out of her room in the middle of the night. Later, I heard that her adoptive parents went to prison and she was sent to a new home.
Bai Ling thought: That’s not as good as my monster mother.
Although it stands coldly, straightly and inhumanly on the roadside, it is often covered with small advertisements. But it would never come into my room in the middle of the night, take off my clothes and scare me.
"Sometimes I think it's a good thing that people are afraid of cameras."
Robot: "Why?"
"Because as long as I am under its nose, no bad guys will dare to approach. They are afraid of the black hole lens, and they are even more afraid of what is behind the camera."
The thing behind the camera wagged its tail: I did the right thing.
It was happy and reassured him, "Look, you are not guilty, because if you really stole something, the camera would catch you."
Bai Ling sighed: "But I did steal something recently... I kidnapped a mecha."
It had heard that it was the enemy's mecha and was very expensive.
The robot said impartially: "You did the right thing."
"But they called me... called me, the Queen of Thieves."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Bai Ling heard the robot make a buzzing sound to indicate an error, and then smoke came out of its top cover, as if the current was too great for a moment and it had been burned by something.
Bai Ling didn't care that he didn't have a prosthetic limb, so he leaned over and quickly patted its lid:
"What kind of fire is this? Is it static electricity? Why is it getting stronger and stronger?"
Inside it: the rage of a husband.
The smoke alarm went off and the robot was forced to leave.
Bai Ling hopped to the window and opened the curtains to let the smoke out. The little jasmine on the bedside smelled of burnt food. He sighed softly. Tonight would be another sleepless night.
I picked up the terminal and called the doctor:
"Hello? Doctor Zhuo, could you please prescribe me two sleeping pills..."
·
The woodpecker is in a very difficult situation.
How big of a fuss was this little white bird incident? ——He, an old fogy guy who only knows how to play Spider Solitaire online, knows all about it.
He walked around with his hands behind his back, muttering, "What should I do? Should I tell the monarch? The monarch is not connected to the internet, so he definitely doesn't know about this."
At this moment, the young doctor in charge of the observation room jumped up and said, "It exploded!"
"What exploded? The aircraft carrier's boiler?"
"That's not that serious. It's the monarch's mental pressure that has soared from an average of 5,000 to 7,000, an increase of 1.4 times - Ouch!"
The woodpecker gave him a slap and gnashed his teeth:
"This is ten times more serious than a boiler explosion! Quickly activate the bionic man and enter the observation room immediately."
Remote control of androids is necessary. Because any normal human being who enters an environment with a mental stress value of 7000 may suffer a cerebral hemorrhage and lose his life.
The woodpecker was surprised and confused, and had no idea what this sudden change meant.
Over the past four days, the mermaid's observation values have been very stable, and one night in the middle of the night it even dropped to a very comfortable 2000 Pa. Just when they breathed a sigh of relief and thought they could safely get through the breeding season this time, the monarch exploded.
"It's over, it's over, the fish tank won't explode, will it?" He walked in and saw that the fish tank was intact and the water was quiet. The woodpecker behind the surveillance camera was stunned, "Hey, why is there no movement?"
The young doctor put his hands on his forehead and tried his best to find the mermaid in the murky water. "Where is it? I can't find it."
"Oh, maybe the pipe of the water purification system was knocked off." The woodpecker slapped his forehead.
Fortunately, the monarch is a rotten species, the dirtier he is, the more active he is. If it were kept with ordinary tropical fish, it would have died three times in a week.
The little doctor said: "Okay, I'll put it back. Once the water purification system is running again, we can observe the monarch's condition up close."
Two androids were standing in the room.
As the water purification system pumped, the water deep into the ceiling began to shake gradually. Under the illumination of top light, the water reflects wave-like spotted ripples on the opposite wall. If you look at it for a long time, it looks like a strange collection of mayfly creatures.
At this time, the young doctor said "eh" and looked down: "When did I open the projection board?"
The projection board in the bionic man's abdominal cavity is similar to a small projector that can project internal information onto the wall. Before, it was disconnected from the Internet. Now, since the two woodpeckers needed to connect remotely, they connected to the external star network together.
The woodpecker was experienced and his scalp went numb when he heard this.
He watched helplessly as the projection board started up and projected a picture on the water ripple wall - [Browser: typing... Bai Ling... click on the hot topic, scroll down, go directly to the comments]
The young doctor was a novice, loyal but not brave enough. He was so scared that he kept howling like a grandson:
“Ahhh, what is this? This is weird! I’m being controlled, I’m—”
"Shut up!"
The woodpecker grabbed him and pushed him down. The two androids were manipulated to kneel down together, crawling on the ground in fear. "Your Majesty, I'm guilty of disturbing your rest. I deserve death."
The cursor flashes, type ing: [You deserve to die if you don’t report it]
woodpecker:"……"
I knew he would be angry.
But the woodpecker thought again and couldn't figure it out. The monarch's main consciousness is asleep, and even if he can move slightly at 1% of his energy efficiency, it is absolutely impossible for him to leave the ship.
Now it seems that the monarch seems to have spiritual threads wandering outside.
It’s strange, what kind of device do mermaids use to project their consciousness? Did he leave some organs outside?
Thinking of this, the woodpecker shuddered inexplicably.
The talents of the ocean people are too insane. If I continue thinking about it, my san value will probably drop drastically.
At this point, the woodpecker dared not even breathe and could only let himself be punished. He glanced sideways secretly, watching the monster on the airwaves flipping through the comments page by page:
[Guess what I found? Photos of Koganei, the collection link is here, take it if you like~]
[Ahhh, so many pictures, Jinjing’s little wings are so cute, what a handsome boy! ]
[The cub is eating, the cub is shooting, the cub is participating in a baseball game, the cub is giving a speech at school... crawling in the dark, roaring loudly, I am so envious, the Marshal has recorded every moment of the cub's growth. @金雕元帅, is your family still in need of a son? ]
[Don’t be so flattering, don’t act like someone who has no father but is trying to gild himself by using a dead ghost. ]
[I am dying of laughter. I just watched a video comparing the Queen of Thieves and the Golden Cub. As expected, the former is crazy, while the latter is emotionally stable, generous and confident. Background has a huge influence on a person's temperament. ]
[Of course, children who are raised in a happy family are more dazzling than ordinary people~]
Seeing this, the young doctor couldn't help but snort, "According to this, children from unhappy families are inferior to others, right?"
What you call envy is essentially just flattery. You want to divide people into different classes based on their background and create class differences.
Originally this was considered too much, but I didn’t expect it to be even more excessive.
[I would like to ask if there is a collection of photos of Commander Bai? ]
[No... He grew up in an orphanage, right? Orphans on Earth, where do the childhood photos come from? ]
[A falcon from Earth? No way, no way, it can’t be that bastard Falcon who used to sleep next to me and beat me up every day when I was a kid! ]
[Squat squat squat, please ask the person above to give me some details! ]
[The albino falcon, that must be him! I never thought that the bully back then could become a queen now? Let me tell you, Bai Ling has been a violent person since he was young. When he was only six or seven years old, he dared to threaten to kill me, "You stinky magpie, I will push you into the fountain tomorrow." He also often stole things, including pigeons and crayons. Even after growing up, he still hasn't changed his bad habits, tsk tsk]
Louzhonglou replied in shock: [So...he has been like this since he was a child? ]
[It’s not surprising, little orphans who are not loved by anyone are more or less psychologically dark…]
[It is better for such a person not to become a queen, as it will have a bad influence. I'm afraid that he might go crazy one day and bring total destruction to the country. ]
Some passers-by couldn't stand it anymore and came out to question:
[If Commander Bai doesn't want to be the queen, then you will? ]
The other party should naturally answer: [What? Does it have to be able to cool for me to comment on a refrigerator? ]
[In my opinion, Koganei is pretty good. Her family has been military aristocrats for three generations, and her father was a marshal appointed by the old emperor before he abdicated. With this configuration, is it enough for her to be the queen? ]
[…It’s really outrageous, even alpha can be forced to make it, don’t love A too much. ]
[I want an AA relationship, I want an AA relationship, AA is the real strength, no objection will be accepted. ]
[Hey, don’t say that, really don’t say that! The old emperor and Xiao Jin really have a connection. @Quanlou, please take a look at this photo. It was taken in the Imperial Council Hall when Xiao Jin was led by the Marshal. I heard that the children of high-ranking officials of the empire are eligible to meet His Majesty and receive blessings on Children's Day. oh! Maybe Ysuparaiso even asked Xiao Jin's name and showed him great care~]
[! ! The late emperor and the young general, a powerful alliance that transcends time, I really love this configuration! ]
The woodpecker burst out with an urgent "Fuck!"
The well-educated old doctor suddenly became distorted, "Who are you? Destroy them quickly. You are polluting my old man's eyes."
At this time, the water purifier makes a "beep" sound to prompt.
The two were facing the wall with their backs to the pool. With a slow and gloomy sound of paddling water behind me, a huge figure slowly passed by the rippled wall. It was clearly behind me. In the water, the shadow was reflected on the wall, like a dark monster without facial features, quietly examining the two people from the front.
The invisible feeling of oppression was so strong that the woodpecker broke out in a cold sweat that soaked his clothes.
The young doctor was even more exaggerated. He was shaking like a sieve and was about to cry.
The water ripples overlap the deep shadow of the mermaid, and the mermaid's shadow overlaps the projection of text. The text is at the top of the layer, and a word is released:
[roll]
The woodpecker and the little doctor immediately thanked them profusely and crawled out of the door.
I was almost running out of the ship along the corridor, and when I looked up at the moon, it was a little blurry... Hey, something's wrong? ! This is the perspective of the bionic people. Their real bodies are at home and nothing is happening.
After taking off the control headset and returning to reality, Woodpecker and the Little Doctor looked at each other and shuddered at the same time.
That was a close call.
There's always a feeling of escaping death.
Don't mess with a merman in breeding season, and don't mess with his mate - soon, this sentence will become the first golden rule in the interstellar world.
·
Sava naturally saw those messy remarks.
He was so worried that he couldn't wait to knock on the door: "Hey, stinky bird, are you asleep? Don't open the Star Network if you're not asleep!"
After knocking for a long time without any response, Sava thought to himself, "Oh no! His brother might be unable to bear it and lose his mind for the time being - it would be faster for me to climb through the window."
Just as he was about to leave, the door opened. Bai Ling curled his lips and said, "It took some time to put on the prosthesis."
Seeing that his face looked normal, Sava breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm glad you're okay. I was so scared..."
"Are you afraid that I will be upset?"
“…”
Sava's eyelids fluttered, and he asked cautiously, "How about we go out and relax, or have a drink? We can go wherever you say, just don't keep it to yourself."
Bai Ling replied calmly: "I just took sleeping pills and can't drink."
"Then drink some water! Ice water will be fine, right?"
As he spoke, he squeezed into the door without saying a word, slammed it shut with his butt, and then went to look for a cup and ice cubes in the small refrigerator.
The good thing about Sava is that he is very outgoing and friendly. No matter how awkward an iceberg a person is, he can press him into a chair and force them to clink glasses.
Sava raised his ear feathers to the most dangerous angle, drank ice water, and his face was full of frost:
"I'm so angry. That Jin Jing, what kind of a piece of shit is he? He relies on his family background to brag about how hard-working and talented he is. He made me vomit all the food pills I left overnight. Tell me, is he a piece of trash?"
Bai Ling twitched his lips and said, "I just think it's a bit ridiculous...AA relationship or something."
Savva banged the bottom of the cup on the table and said angrily, "Who cares? They're obsessed with power and influence, and now they're obsessed with your No. 1. How shameless! Don't you know that these aristocratic alphas are like this? Whenever there's a good thing or any benefit, they'll do their best to get involved, and they wish all the resources in society would flow to them. As soon as an omega gets something, they'll immediately run over like flies, saying that you don't deserve it and want to snatch it from you."
He is the most qualified person to say this. Before, the inheritance left to him by Savoy I was almost snatched away by A, a branch of the clan. If Heinz hadn't intercepted him halfway, Sava would have been left with nothing.
"The most hateful among them is a group of omegas, the ones who love to pretend to be A in the military academy. They are clearly Os, but they insist on claiming to be honorary alphas. They hate their gender so much that they want to undergo sex reassignment surgery to become A, just to prove that they are better than O. I wonder why they do this? If people live such a twisted life, they might as well not live at all."
Sava's scolding was passionate and deeply moving. Bai Ling raised his eyes to look at him and said seriously:
"Thank you, Sava."
"...Why are you thanking me?" Sava coughed lightly and turned his head away to cover up. His neck turned red. "In short, don't mind it. They are not qualified to judge you."
Bai Ling turned his eyes and asked softly:
"When you were little, you were all taken to see the emperor. Is that true?"
Sava was speechless and whispered, "Really."
“What does that feel like?”
"...Actually, I don't remember much. I just remember that we walked through a very long corridor on the way. It took about ten minutes to walk. It was filled with huge tapestries, each one was five or six meters high and more than ten meters long, and they were embroidered with famous scenes from the history of the Mermaid Empire. I walked inside, looking up, and it felt like I was walking in a slide machine."
"At the end of the walk, you will come to a marble door. They say it is called the 'Door of Truth'. There is an exquisitely carved mermaid on the top of the door. It is magnificent and lifelike. When I first saw it, I thought it was a real mermaid about to fall from the sky. Then, a voice came from inside. We could only stand outside the door and listen. We could not take even a step closer. His Majesty would ask me how I was, how old I was, how I was doing in school, and whether I had any difficulties in life... When I left, he gave me a set of pens - but unfortunately I lost them later."
After listening to this, Bai Ling lowered his eyes and sighed: "I'm so envious."
Sava hesitated and dared not say a word. He couldn't help but think that if his good brother was really Shi Luolan's biological child, and if the admiral didn't die, Bai Ling would also be able to know Da 1 as early as they did. They can also play in the royal gardens and be invited to dances at Christmas.
His brother is so good looking, he will definitely be chosen to open the dance.
Because he is the admiral's child, he will be loved by everyone. There is a special tutor who is responsible for teaching etiquette and will customize the most beautiful and high-end dress for him, with the brightest pearls on the cuffs.
Bai Ling, who grew up like that, would be very confident, and would be dignified in his every move no matter where he went. After that, she went to school peacefully, entered the military with her own strength, accumulated military merits, was promoted smoothly, and finally... came to His Majesty naturally. The two of them fell in love normally, sympathized with each other, and had no physical or mental defects. Bai Ling will be blessed and become the most reasonable queen in the hearts of the people.
This is another life.
Unfortunately, such a life will never happen to Bai Ling.
On the contrary, it was Jin Jing who took a nearly perfect script and actually instigated public opinion to add salt to Bai Ling's childhood flaws.
How shameless!
Sava drank water as if it were wine, and as he drank, he became sad. Although he was also from a prominent family, his grandfather always taught him not to forget his roots. Therefore, even if he is in a high position, he will lament the injustice of the world.
If only grandpa hadn't passed away...
A purebred eagle owl can live to be nearly 120 years old. King Savoy I, who died at the age of 58, still looked like a middle-aged man. It was completely possible for him to serve as a marshal until he was 80 and then retire.
If that were the case, there would be no Golden Eagle and Golden Well at all.
The military would not be as chaotic as it is now, and Bai Ling would not have his leg broken.
Unfortunately, his grandfather was infected with a deadly virus on an alien planet. Despite all the medical treatment, he only survived for a year before passing away.
It seems as if the pointer of fate is being manipulated by hand, always pointing to the worst outcome.
For a moment, the two falcons looked at each other in silence, each with their own thoughts. Seeing that it was getting late, Sava stood up and said "good night" to Bai Ling.
Before leaving, Sava seemed to remember something, turned around, grabbed Bai Ling and said:
"By the way, let me ask you something. Your eldest is in the breeding season, and he has gone into hibernation, but you two probably haven't had sex during this time, right?"
Of course, Bai Ling would not tell anyone what he did in private. Otherwise, if it got out and Woodpecker knew about it, he might bring people to seal the mother ship, making it impossible for him to go back.
Bai Ling lied: "No."
Sava breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. I heard from North that you were not feeling well, so I thought he had laid eggs in your stomach. You don't know that in some marine species, the male carries sperm with yolk into the reproductive cavity to combine with the female's egg. The sperm and egg are very large and will grow slowly in the stomach. If you hadn't had contact, this would not have been possible."
He left with peace of mind.
No one noticed that after Bai Ling closed the door and turned around, his face was illuminated by the ceiling light in the corridor and turned pale.
