Chapter 11
Su Ci felt good because someone helped him solve the problem of food he didn't like. He looked at the child opposite him, thought for a moment, and asked, "You are number one, right?"
The child paused, raised his eyes, met Su Ci's warm and beautiful black eyes, and finally nodded slightly.
Su Ci hummed, and then focused on his breakfast. 4586's words that breakfast is important made him decide to eat until he was full.
However, when he ate four cans of canned food in a row and felt a little thirsty, he wanted to make another cup of nutritional solution, but he caught a glimpse of the nutritional solution package on the dining table.
He couldn't help but stop . When
it comes to food, Su Ci's memory is still good.
He had already drunk eight portions of nutritional solution yesterday, and five more today, plus the two portions of mixed vegetable flavor for the little guy, a total of fifteen portions.
In other words, he only had six portions of nutritional solution left.
As for the canned beef, although there were still more than twenty boxes in stock in the space button, according to his eating speed, I'm afraid it wouldn't last long.
Su Ci rarely felt a little melancholy.
Number One opposite him was drinking the nutritional solution in a cup in small sips.
Although the keeper didn't say it explicitly, he knew that after drinking this cup, he would have no more, so he cherished it especially and didn't dare to gulp it down like he did last night and drink the nutritional solution in one breath.
At this time, he noticed that the keeper had stopped and was looking at the nutrient solution bags, with a trace of worry on his face.
Number One blinked, and he looked at the half cup of nutrient solution left. Finally, he couldn't bear it and pushed his glass in front of the keeper, then retracted his hand and hid it under the table.
Sensing his movements, Su Ci raised his head and met the child's black and red eyes. The pupil color was strange and a little scary, but the eyes were very clean.
He glanced at the remaining half cup of nutrient solution and reached out to push it back.
"I still have some."
Besides, he didn't like the nutrient solution with mixed vegetable flavor. If conditions permit, he would not eat it.
Number One looked at him, and seeing his seriousness, he stretched out his little hand, picked up the cup of nutrient solution again, and drank it happily again.
And Su Ci...
He threw the nutrient solution bag into the trash can, and then remembered what Gu Qingchen said last night about points - since points can be exchanged for fertilizers, then they should also be able to be exchanged for nutrient solution, right?
It seems necessary to go to the logistics department today.
Because of the shortage of food, Su Ci restrained his appetite, washed the cup, drank two glasses of water, and prepared to go out.
The metal door opened automatically.
Su Ci walked out of the corridor, and before he took a few steps, he found a little tail following him.
He turned his head and looked at the little guy who had slipped out at some point.
Unlike yesterday when he only dared to appear around him from a distance, the child followed closely behind him one step away today.
The skinny and small cub, not much taller than his knees, followed him step by step like a soft puppy.
When he found that Su Ci suddenly stopped and looked back at him, he did not dare to ask why. He just stood there, holding his two little hands together, looking at him innocently and pitifully.
Su Ci did not want to chase him back. He glanced at him from top to bottom.
The child was only wearing a light blue short T-shirt.
His size was naturally not suitable for children. It was wide and large, reaching to the calf, revealing a pair of scarred feet and thin ankles that seemed to be broken at a touch.
Su Ci looked at him for a few times, frowned, turned around and continued to walk into the elevator.
Seeing that he did not drive him away, No. 1's eyes lit up slightly, and he hurriedly spread his short legs and ran in.
In the elevator, Su Ci watched the child run in, then released the button on the panel and pressed the floor number.
No. 1 stood next to Su Ci, raised his head and looked at him secretly, then took advantage of Su Ci's inattention and quietly moved to his feet, closing the distance between the two.
Although the two people were standing side by side, only the thin figure of the young man was reflected on the wall of the elevator...
Soon, the elevator reached the first floor.
In the corridor leading to the kitchen, Su Ci found the nanny robot No. 4586 pushing a cart.
"Susu, you're late!"
4586 saw him and immediately expressed strong dissatisfaction with his lateness in the morning. "You were late this morning and it has been recorded. This will affect your assessment results."
The soft and cute voice is very cute even when it is fierce, and it doesn't sound intimidating at all.
Su Ci nodded, looked at the lunch box on the cart, and changed the subject: "Have the cubs finished breakfast?"
"Yes." 4586 replied, "Because there is no help from the keeper and other nanny robots, the cubs can only eat in the room."
Otherwise, if the situation like yesterday happens again, it will not be able to cope with it.
Su Ci hummed, and then asked it if there were any extra cub clothes in the brooding room.
Number One, who was standing behind him, suddenly raised his head when he noticed that 4586 still couldn't see him. He looked at the young man's back, his dark red eyes slightly shining.
Cub clothes?
Is it... for him?
"Yes." 4586 replied, "I'll take you there after I send the food box back to the kitchen."
4586 pushed the cart to the kitchen, put the food box into the automatic washing machine, selected the mode, and took Su Ci to the warehouse next to the kitchen.
The door of the warehouse was almost integrated with the metal wall. If it weren't for 4586 leading the way, it would be difficult for anyone to find that there was a door here.
"Su Su, this is the warehouse of the cub brood. Please stand in front of the door and register your identity."
After completing the same process as the dormitory registration yesterday, Su Ci obtained the right to use the warehouse - this is the power of the keeper.
In the cub brood, the authority of the keeper is higher than that of the nanny robot, even if Su Ci is still in the probation period.
Therefore, when Su Ci just asked about the cub clothes, 4586 did not explore its purpose. After all, the responsibility of the nanny robot is to take care of the cubs and assist the keeper to complete the work.
The miscellaneous items in the warehouse are neatly stacked, basically they are daily necessities for the cubs. As one of the items that wear out the fastest and the most in daily life, cub clothes are stored in several boxes -
unlike the keepers who only have two sets of uniforms, which have to be exchanged with points if they are damaged.
Su Ci looked at the boxes of baby clothes and said, "Give me two sets of the smallest size."
"Okay, Su Su, do you need a skirt or pants?"
"Pants."
Su Ci took the baby clothes handed over by 4586, and thought of the way the child walked barefoot, and said, "Give me a few pairs of socks and a pair of shoes, all in the smallest size."
4586 was a little confused for a moment and asked him, "How many pairs of socks are there?"
Su Ci took a look at the whole box of brand new socks and said, "Five pairs."
"Okay." 4586 responded, and the robotic arm picked up a package of socks, exactly five pairs, and handed it to Su Ci together with the shoes and clothes.
Su Ci took the things and said, "I'll go back to the dormitory."
"Okay, Su Su, remember to come to the activity room later." 4586 watched Su Ci walk out of the warehouse and reminded him.
Su Ci waved without looking back, indicating that he understood.
Return to room 303.
Su Ci put the things on the dining table, unfolded the cub clothes and took a look, then turned to the door.
The child stood there, his eyes wide open, looking at him expectantly and nervously, obviously having guessed what would happen next, but not sure. It
was not until Su Ci waved to him that the child's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his short legs and ran over.
"Do you know how to wear it?" Su Ci showed the cub clothes in front of him.
Number One shook his head subconsciously, then nodded hesitantly. He had never worn it before, but he had seen the nanny robot put it on other cubs, so it didn't seem difficult.
"Well, then go put it on." Su Ci handed him a complete set of cub clothes.
Holding the brand new, dry and neat clothes, Number One finally confirmed that these were indeed prepared for him. He couldn't help but grin, revealing a cute smile.
He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't utter a complete and meaningful syllable.
Number One lowered his head in disappointment, and ran to the living room with the clothes in his arms, grunting. He carefully placed the cub clothes on the sofa, and then took off his short T-shirt.
The small clothes on the sofa disappeared one by one, and finally only an adult top was left.
After some effort, No. 1 finally put on his clothes. He pulled the cub clothes on his body and gently smoothed out the wrinkles on the fabric with his small hands.
The smallest size of the cub clothes was still a little too big for him, but the trousers and hems were made of special materials. They could automatically shrink to a size that just fits the skin within a certain range, without pinching the skin, and were very comfortable.
Looking at his new clothes, No. 1 liked them very much.
Looking at the adult top on the sofa, he imitated what he had seen from the nanny robot before, folded it clumsily, and finally carefully smoothed out the wrinkles.
Then he held it in his arms and ran to give it to Su Ci.
Su Ci had been watching him, and when he saw that he had really put on his clothes by himself, he couldn't help but nod.
Placing the clothes on the table, he took the child's hand and went into the bathroom. He asked him to wash his feet and dry the water stains before giving him the socks and shoes.
Number One fumbled to put on the socks and then the shoes.
The soft and warm feeling came from his feet, as if he was stepping on clouds, making him feel a little floating.
Su Ci looked at the child. Although he was still thin and small after putting on the clothes, shoes and socks, he looked much better.
He touched the child's head, then handed him the remaining clothes and four pairs of socks, and asked him to put them in the drawer under the closet and take them out when he needed to wear them in the future.
Number One, who was still curious about the shoes, was stunned when he heard the words.
When he needs to wear it in the future, he can go and get it himself... Does the keeper mean that he can live here in the future?
