Chapter 73
Number Two...
Thinking of the frightened "big cat" in the surveillance video, Su Ci couldn't help but feel itchy.
He used his spiritual sense to scan Number Two's room and saw the Red Flame Tiger lying on the ground and sleeping soundly, so he reached out and rubbed the little wolf cub's head.
"Don't worry, he's fine."
Although the keeper was still the same as before, after what happened last night, Xiao Langze felt that his mood had changed a little.
For example, when the keeper rubbed his head, he didn't feel reluctant at all, and the big tail behind him swayed involuntarily.
The little white deer looked a little envious.
He also wanted to be rubbed on the head by the keeper, but he was too embarrassed to say it out loud. He couldn't be like Xiao Langze - after seeing how strong the keeper was, he could still maintain the same intimate attitude towards the keeper as before.
After all, the keeper was so strong... When
facing a strong man, he couldn't help but feel awe in his heart, even if the keeper was still as friendly as before.
So does the keeper also have the blood of a ferocious beast? When it is transformed into a beast, it has light golden eyes... What kind of animal would it be?
The little white deer thought.
Su Ci withdrew his hand, glanced at No. 5 who was standing there, hesitating and not daring to come over, and turned his head to scan No. 6 who was standing in front of the toy area.
When he looked over, the little monkey was obviously startled, then quickly turned around and pretended to be calm while picking toys.
Even Xiao Zhengxing shrank slightly when his eyes swept over him, like a frightened kitten, and his little hand holding the bamboo flute instantly tightened.
However, he did not hide away like No. 6.
Su Ci looked at these cubs and knew that they were afraid, but he did not take the initiative to comfort them. Instead, he lowered his head and said to Xiao Langze and the others: "I am busy. I will teach you the flute in the afternoon. You should practice well."
After that, he said hello to 4586 and went about his own business.
The little wolf cub looked at his back, opened his mouth slightly, and finally closed it, not daring to express his dissatisfaction.
Anyway...it's the same if we teach in the afternoon. The three of them can practice on their own first, the young boy thought with his ears drooping in fear.
At this moment, he felt someone pulling his clothes from behind.
Little Langze turned around and saw that No. 5 had come behind him at some point and was grabbing the hem of his clothes with her little hands.
Because she cried so hard these days, her eyes were still slightly red and swollen. She tilted her head and looked at him timidly, with a hint of dependence in her movements and attitude.
When her brother was away, except for the nanny robot, only No. 8 was nice to her in the nursery. In addition, the little wolf cub seemed to have become more reliable in the past two days, so she couldn't help but treat him as a brother.
The carefree little wolf cub didn't notice the difference. He bent down slightly and asked the little girl, "Number Five, what's wrong? What's wrong with you?"
"My brother is in danger..." Number Five said, "Let's go save him... ok?"
The little wolf cub was stunned, "Number Four is in danger? What's wrong with him? Isn't he in the infirmary?"
Number Five shook her head. She didn't know what happened to her brother. She didn't even know where he was taken and what happened to him now.
Seeing that Number Five was hesitating and couldn't say anything useful for a long time, the little wolf cub couldn't help scratching his hair and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Number Five stretched out his hand and pointed outside the door.
The little wolf cub followed her finger and could only see the keeper slowly walking into the elevator. He lowered his head and looked at No. 5 and said, "Do you want to tell the keeper to help us?"
No. 5 nodded.
"Why didn't you tell him when he was here just now?" Little Langze asked curiously.
No. 5 couldn't help but lower his head and whispered, "I'm scared..."
Not to mention the breakup between her and the keeper before, it was also her who summoned the monster last night. Just now, in order to protect No. 4583, she used her ability on the keeper again...
She remembered that the keeper had warned her on the day of the "breakup".
The little girl pursed her lips, and tears began to well up in her eyes again, looking particularly pitiful.
Seeing that she was about to cry again, Xiao Langze was really worried. He quickly said, "Okay, I'm here. There's nothing to be afraid of. If you keep crying like this, you'll go blind!"
The little girl's eyes were already obviously dark blue. He was really afraid that No. 5 would be like Xiao Xingxing one day and lose her sight after crying.
He didn't know how Xiao Xingxing became blind, and whether she could be cured in the future...
No. 5 sniffed and tried to hold back her tears.
Xiao Langze scratched his head and said, "If No. 4 is really in danger, then we can't wait any longer. We have to tell Su Su as soon as possible."
Although the breeder would teach them to play the flute in the afternoon, Xiao Langze felt that saving people couldn't be delayed. If time was wasted, they might not be able to be saved.
At this time, the little white deer at the side finally spoke.
"You say, the keeper is so powerful, does he know what we are talking about?" He made a reasonable guess.
However, the little wolf cub shook his head and said very decisively: "Doesn't the keeper only become powerful when he is woken up? Look at his eyes, they are black."
Just like when they are frenzied, they will become much stronger than usual, and now they are not in a frenzy state, they can't be that strong.
The little deer frowned, he felt that something seemed wrong, but he couldn't help but be convinced.
"And..." the little wolf cub continued, "Even if Su Su really knows, we will need to give something before he will help us."
Xiao Lujiao blinked. He looked at the determined look of the young man and remembered that before, Xiao Langze suddenly pulled the keeper out of his room, and after they came back, the keeper agreed to teach him to play the flute...
So he looked at Xiao Langze and asked softly, "So, what did you give to let Su Su teach me to play the flute?"
The little wolf cub: "..."
He remembered the "painful" experience of being touched on the tail by the keeper.
"No!" The young boy dodged his eyes and denied it flatly, "How could I let Su Su touch my tail? Su Su is willing to teach you to play the flute, that's because... he thinks you can learn it, so he teaches you! That's how it is!"
Xiaolu Jiao: "..."
Number Five: "..."
Seeing that the little wolf cub was still trying to convince him, Xiaolu Jiao had to nod, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Langze was too easy to be tricked...
No, he told everything before he even started.
Of course, he would no longer laugh at him for being stupid, because... Xiaolu Jiao felt very lucky to have such a friend.
"So how do we save Number Four now?" He took the initiative to change the subject with empathy.
The little wolf boy breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, he saw 4586 next to him facing them. He could not help but shut his mouth, then pulled Xiaolujiao and No. 5 to hide in the corner, next to Xiao Zhengxing.
Feeling the approach of a strange breath, Xiao Zhengxing froze. After a short struggle, he stayed where he was until the little wolf boy sat beside him carelessly. Then he quietly relaxed.
And Xiao Langze had already whispered and conspired: "To save No. 4, we still have to find Su Su. Only Su Su can help us."
No. 5 looked at the little wolf boy. Although she also thought that she should ask the keeper for help, she could clearly feel that the little wolf boy's trust in the keeper was completely different from hers.
The keeper... can he really be trusted?
"Although Su Su has gone out, he just told Camel to wait for him in the lobby, so he should not have left the nursery yet. We can still find him if we go find him right away!"
At this moment, the little wolf cub showed his wisdom in a rare way.
"You are right." Deer Jiao also agreed, "Su Su walks slowly, so he should not be in the lobby yet. If we want to find him, we have to hurry."
He directly gave a plan, "I can help attract 4586's attention, you guys run downstairs right away."
The activity room was on the second floor, and running downstairs directly was not much slower than taking the elevator.
"However, if we leave the activity room without permission, Su Su might be unhappy..." Xiao Lu Jiao said hesitantly.
Xiao Langze shook his head, "No."
He couldn't tell the reason, but his instinct as a wild animal told him that the keeper wouldn't be angry about such a thing.
"Well, that's good."
Since Xiao Langze said so, Xiao Lu Jiao was willing to believe him, "Then we should act without delay, I'll go attract 4586, and you guys run away immediately."
"Okay!" Xiao Langze responded.
Xiao Lu Jiao looked at 4586 in the distance, and was about to walk towards it, but after taking two steps, he was stopped by No. 5 behind him.
No. 5 looked at him. Since No. 7 was willing to help her save her brother, how could she not express her gratitude?
She whispered, "I'm sorry about last night... I... I will..."
Number 5 wanted to say that she could make it up to him later, but after she finished, she saw that Number 7, who had been a little indifferent and wary of her, had a slightly relaxed expression on his face.
"Well, I know."
The silver-haired boy said, "I'll go first, and we'll talk about the others after we rescue Number 4."
Then he pulled Number 5's hand away and ran towards 4586 in small steps. Number 5 looked at his back with a dazed expression. She didn't understand why Number 7 would help her.
If she was harmed by someone and was almost eaten by a monster, she would definitely not forgive that person easily, let alone help that person...
"Number 5, don't be in a daze, we have to hurry." Xiao Langze reminded.
He didn't know about the grudge between No. 5 and No. 7. He felt relieved when he saw them talking. After all, this way, No. 7 could integrate smoothly with them in the future!
Xiaolu Jiao was very smart. Without saying a word, he led 4586 to the toy area.
Xiao Langze, who was waiting for the opportunity, also took No. 5 and walked to the door as if nothing had happened when they walked away. Finally, they saw the right moment and slipped out of the activity room together.
4586 didn't notice their little move, but No. 6, who caught a glimpse of this scene, raised his finger and pointed at them. He was about to expose it loudly, but suddenly remembered something and lowered his voice silently.
"No. 5 and No. 8 are out!" he said to the nanny robot.
4586 immediately put down the little deer Jiao that was trying to stop it, and just as he was about to check, the little Zhengxing in the corner had put down his bamboo flute and picked up his metal ball. A
faint blue light lit up under his little hand.
4586, who was moving quickly towards the door, suddenly stopped, turned back, and continued to talk to the confused little deer Jiao.
Number Six was also confused, and he said angrily: "Aren't you going to chase Number Five and Number Eight?"
"Wuwu and Baba are in the room." 4586 said.
"..."
Number Six thought that this nanny robot might be stupid, he thought about it, and ran towards the door of the activity room, but 4586 stopped him.
"Liuliu, now is the activity time, you have to play in the activity room."
Number Six was not convinced, he couldn't help but get mad, but the terrifying figure from last night appeared in his mind again...
He was furious, but scared from the bottom of his heart.
He felt suffocated by his irritation that had nowhere to vent, and finally he could only say a harsh word, "I don't care about you!"
Then, he went to the corner to face the wall alone.
Xiaolu Jiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he looked at Xiao Zhengxing in the distance and smiled slightly.
Su Ci came to the front hall of the nursery and met with Luo Shengfei who was waiting for him.
"Keeper Su, if there is nothing else, then I'll leave first." Luo Shengfei said.
Captain Yan had just sent him a message, asking him to go to the Operations Department. Captain Yan already knew that he had been suspended for investigation and then cancelled, and now he was asked to go to the Operations Department to understand the situation.
Luo Shengfei was innocent, and the intelligent computer had already determined that he was not guilty, so he had nothing to panic about. But
Su Ci did not let him go, "I have something to do, you can't leave yet."
Luo Shengfei was about to ask for details when he saw three cans of beef in the young man's hand - this was the reward they had agreed upon before.
He immediately swallowed back his words, and swallowed back his saliva that was secreted crazily.
Seeing that Su Ci did not give him the cans immediately, but walked out of the nursery hall, he had no choice but to follow him, staring at the cans of beef in his hand.
Finally, they came to the back of the nursery building.
A Yan had been waiting for him here, and when he saw Su Ci coming back, he was happy at first, and then he saw Luo Shengfei following behind him, and he quickly shut his mouth.
He followed Su Ci carefully without making any sound.
Su Ci had once again used a trick to hide the small piece of land, and even the remains of the big spider were hidden by him.
So in Luo Shengfei's eyes, the yard of the nursery was still bare as before.
"Keeper Su, why did you bring me here?"
Su Ci pointed at the metal floor under his feet and said, "Is there any way to cut these metals?"
Luo Shengfei looked at the metal floor under his feet, then looked up at Su Ci, and asked uncertainly, "You want to cut these metals? Why?"
Su Ci said calmly, "I want to open up a piece of land to grow things."
Hearing this, Luo Shengfei shook his head directly, "This won't work. The purpose of laying metal floors, in addition to aesthetics, is mainly to defend against monsters invading the base from underground and to isolate pollutants to the greatest extent."
"The soil also contains pollutants. No one can successfully grow anything on Hell Star except the plantation. Give up!"
Luo Shengfei thought Su Ci was fanciful, but Su Ci did not intend to waste words. He said bluntly: "I have submitted an application to the intelligent computer and it was approved."
"This... this is impossible?"
Luo Shengfei felt shocked. "How could the intelligent computer approve such an application?"
Yes, how could the intelligent computer approve such an application? If there was a light screen in front of them now, six points would probably appear on it again.
However, Su Ci said confidently: "It has been approved. If you don't believe it, you can ask."
Luo Shengfei had no choice but to call the base's intelligent computer and try to ask this question, and the answer he got was -
[Trainee keeper Su Ci has passed the relevant application. Sergeant Luo Shengfei, please cooperate with trainee keeper Su Ci to open up a piece of land behind the nursery.]
Luo Shengfei couldn't believe his eyes, but this was indeed an order from the base's intelligent computer, and he had to obey it.
"Okay then..." He nodded and said.
So, under Su Ci's command, Luo Shengfei took out a small capsule from the tool box and placed it on the ground far away. After he pressed the switch, the small capsule disappeared and turned directly into a machine.
He operated the machine to cut and recycle the heavy metal floor, revealing the soil underneath.
In the end, almost all the yards behind the nursery building were reclaimed.
Su Ci felt a different kind of joy as he stepped on the muddy ground.
Unlike the land he reclaimed the first time, the land reclaimed this time did not contain pollutants, or in other words, the resentment hidden in the land had been purified or expelled.
In Su Ci's mind, there was a scene of dozens of spirits bowing to him to express their gratitude. They were
the souls that had been imprisoned in the black shadow last night after he purified it and had not dissipated.
That black shadow was actually not a specific creature.
Although Su Ci didn't quite remember what happened last night, he could guess from the image that the black shadow was probably a collection of countless vengeful spirits.
The souls that didn't dissipate were probably the lives that were devoured by it. The souls of these lives were not assimilated after being eroded by the resentment for a long time. They must have something or characteristics that could resist the resentment.
When Su Ci performed the purification technique to completely purify and eliminate the resentment in the black shadow, the vengeful spirits dissipated, and these precious souls were rescued.
After being tortured for who knows how many years, they were finally able to rest in peace. After expressing their gratitude to Su Ci, their soul power shattered into light spots, merged into the earth of the nursery, and returned to the embrace of the earth again.
The resentment that eroded the land was also purified and expelled by these precious soul powers.
However, the land that had been expelled of resentment still lacked soil fertility and needed time to repair.
But no matter what, this was a good start, and it also provided Su Ci with a good idea to restore the vitality of the earth.
Luo Shengfei didn't know how to farm, so he couldn't see any difference between the reclaimed land and the past.
He put away the machine, carefully put away the toolbox, looked at Su Ci with eyes that seemed to want to say something but stopped, but when Su Ci threw three cans of beef at him, he suddenly smiled.
"Hey, then I'll go first. I'll send it to you after 4583 is modified!"
After saying that, Luo Shengfei left the nursery, not daring to stay here any longer - although this matter has been approved by the intelligent computer, he still feels that it is not advisable to open up such a large piece of land in the base.
As long as extreme weather comes, this piece of land will definitely be in trouble!
He really couldn't understand why the base's intelligent computer would approve it, so for the sake of safety, after reminding Su Ci a few words, he quickly slipped away.
Su Ci naturally wouldn't stop him. He looked at the piece of land in front of him, which was at least twenty times larger than before, and began to think about the next planting plan.
Is he going to plant in different areas? Or should we gather these spirit seeds in one place and spread them randomly?
When Su Ci was thinking, the light screen in front of him suddenly popped up.
[Intern keeper Su Ci, according to the surveillance, cub No. 5 and cub No. 8 left the activity room without permission. Should we notify the action team and send members to help?]
Su Ci glanced at it, then retracted his gaze and said lazily: "No, let these two little guys come over."
Obviously, just as Xiaolu Jiao thought, Su Ci knew their conversation.
Then he said, "From now on, as long as I'm at the nursery, they can go wherever they want during the day without being blocked."
The reason for such strict control of their outdoor time is to reduce accidental injuries caused by their blood frenzy, but this is not a big problem for Su Ci.
Assuming that he was like these cubs, only allowed to go out at designated times and under surveillance at all times, Su Ci estimated that his temper would not be very good.
[Okay, got it.]
The light screen was about to disappear when Su Ci said, "Are you doing what I just ordered?"
[Executing]
Su Ci nodded, and he also had a preliminary idea of how to plant next. He looked at A Yan beside him. The child was holding three cans of spiritual water in his hands, quietly waiting for his instructions.
"A Yan, go and plant these seeds." Su Ci said.
A Yan couldn't help but tilt his head, with confusion in his black and red eyes.
How to plant?
As a result, the young man smiled and said, "You can plant it however you want."
A Yan was immediately fascinated by his smile. After a while, he came back to his senses and nodded vigorously, "Yes!"
Then, the child ran to the land of Xiao Lingya with the can of spiritual water in his arms, put the can of spiritual water aside, took out a small shovel from the space button, and started digging the soil.
Su Ci looked at his busy little figure and nodded with great satisfaction. At this time, the little wolf cub finally ran out of the nursery building with No. 5 on his back.
They also heard the movement behind the building. When the little wolf cub ran around with No. 5 on his back, he was stunned to see the exposed ground.
However, the little wolf cub soon remembered the business, he put down No. 5 and hurriedly ran to Su Ci.
And Su Ci, watching the two little guys running over, before they could speak, nodded and said: "I already know about No. 4, come with me."
Seeing that the keeper was so straightforward, the little wolf cub who was about to open his mouth to negotiate conditions could not help but be stunned.
This time... this time, don't you have to touch the tail?
