Chapter 152
Admiral Benchi's surprised voice attracted the attention of the person next to him.
Xiang Bie looked at the middle-aged man and walked towards him.
When Admiral Benchi saw someone approaching, he turned off his computer and watched the harvest in a daze.
Xiang Bie then spoke up: "So, Mr. General, is Harvest playing hide-and-seek?"
Admiral Bunch said nothing.
"Mr. Admiral?"
"Mr. Admiral?"
Admiral Bunch finally came to his senses and asked, "What did you say?"
Xiang Bie looked at him: "I mean, do you like playing hide-and-seek before the harvest?"
Admiral Bench frowned, thought for a moment, and shook his head. "It doesn't like playing this kind of game, and I don't think it's playing hide-and-seek. It seems its condition has worsened."
A separate meal.
The more Admiral Bunch thought about it, the more convinced he was. He said with certainty, "Yes, his condition has worsened. It's memory loss, or perhaps Alzheimer's. Isn't that the case? When people age, they can't remember recent events, but they can remember things from long ago, mistaking those around them for those from that time. That's probably what happened with Harvest. His case needs to be updated. Can you treat this condition?"
Mu Ling also came over at this time, and just heard the second half of Admiral Benqi's words, and asked: "What to treat?"
Admiral Benqi excitedly said to Mu Ling: "Director Mu, Harvest only met you yesterday, but she was particularly close to you. It might be because she mistook you for someone else. Look at this."
Admiral Benchi turned on his laptop, projected the screen into the air, and showed them his screensaver: "Look, this old photo is very similar to the one just now. It's a photo from twenty years ago. Harvest was only five years old then. That operation..."
Admiral Benchi recounted the events of the past in a long and rambling manner. After he finished, he pointed at the black bear that had come closer and was getting close to Mu Ling and said, "Tell me, has Harvest become senile?"
He looked at Mu Ling: "It can't be, Director Mu, you are really an orphan, right?"
Mu Ling looked at him and said in a daze, "I am an orphan."
Admiral Bench: "..."
Admiral Bunch was shocked for a moment, and then said, "It can't be that you were really rescued in the forest, right?"
Mu Ling looked at him, still in a daze: "Grandpa said that I was picked up in the forest."
Admiral Bench: "..."
Admiral Benchi was unconvinced: "It can't be that you are just twenty years old, right?"
Mu Ling still looked at him and nodded stiffly: "I am really twenty years old."
Admiral Benchi was stunned. His eyes widened. “Huh?”
After a while he said again: "Ah???"
Mu Ling also said: "Ah???"
They said at the same time: "Ah???????"
"Ao..." Shouhuo thought they were imitating his own calls, so he followed suit and called out to join the group.
Admiral Bench's CPU burned out.
Mu Ling's cerebellum has atrophied.
Xiang Bie frowned deeply.
The atmosphere in the entire glass room suddenly became a little strange.
Until Wei Li suddenly said, "Fuck, Director, you are an orphan, so you are not a rich woman?"
Mu Ling: “…”
Category: "..."
Your focus seems to be different from ours...
-
Admiral Bench really didn't expect such a coincidence to happen. He actually didn't know where the little girl ended up. After he handed the child over, he only heard that she was sent to a welfare center. Normally, for such abandoned babies, the welfare center should arrange for capable families to adopt them.
Admiral Benqi looked at Mu Ling in wonder and asked, "So, you really are this child? Have your family told you about what happened in the past?"
Mu Ling shook her head hesitantly. Her grandfather told her everything about her childhood, but her grandfather clearly said that he was the one who picked her up and brought her home.
So grandpa adopted her from an orphanage?
But that’s not right. Grandpa is not financially well off, so why would he be qualified to adopt an orphan from the welfare center?
The federal formal adoption procedures are very complicated, and only married couples with no children but financial resources are allowed to adopt a child. Single elderly people like grandpa should not be eligible to adopt a child.
So was she adopted by her grandfather from an orphanage?
If not, why does she live with her grandfather?
Could it be that someone else adopted her, abandoned her in the forest, and then she was picked up by her grandfather in the forest?
This possibility is not impossible. Of course, there is another possibility that the baby in the photo is not her.
Although the various reactions of the harvest, coupled with the various information from Admiral Benchi, all indicate that the baby is most likely her.
But maybe not.
Thinking of this, Mu Ling looked at the harvest again.
She saw Shouhui with his ears tilted back and his mouth wide open, still smiling at her.
Mu Ling also laughed. She went forward to hug Shouhuo and stroked his fur. Then she said to Wei Li, "Brother Wei, go call Dr. Bray and ask him to come and give Shouhuo a checkup."
Wei Li responded and turned away.
After a while, Dr. Bray arrived.
Along with Dr. Bray came Xiao Ding and the harvest breeder.
The harvester knew Admiral Bench and was a little surprised to see him coming, so he went up to greet him.
Admiral Bunch responded casually, but his attention was focused on Harvest.
Dr. Bray brought a complete set of tools, and he first measured the damage value of the harvest.
78%.
Test the cranial nerves again.
Everything works fine.
Mu Ling then said, "Let's test for Alzheimer's disease. He's an old beast after all, just in case."
Dr. Bray had no objection. After the other tests were completed, he gave Mu Ling a few patches and asked her to stick them on Harvest's head.
After Mu Ling had applied the patch, Dr. Bree asked Mu Ling and Admiral Benchi to guide Harvest in playing a few games.
These mini-games can test your harvesting coordination, balance, reflexes, and awareness level.
Twenty minutes later, looking at the recorded data, Dr. Bray said, "Its physical fitness and endurance are poor, but everything else is similar to what's in the data. There are no signs of dementia or cognitive impairment."
In other words, Harvest is now sober. Although it is old, it is not confused. It really thinks that Mu Ling is the baby it had seen before.
Mu Ling suddenly felt dazed. At this moment, Xiang Bie suddenly walked up to General Benqi and said, "General Benqi, may I have a word with you?"
Admiral Benchi glanced at him and followed him to the side.
They talked for a few words from a distance. Admiral Benqi glanced at Xiang Bie in the middle, then looked at Mu Ling over there, and then nodded.
After a while, Xiang Bie walked back and said to the others, "Everyone, continue with your own work. It's time for breakfast after the harvest. Xiao Ding, are you ready?"
Xiao Ding quickly said, "It's ready. I'll get it."
Xiang Bie and Wei Li said, "Take General Benqi and put the luggage away."
Wei Li hurriedly led Admiral Benqi out.
Dr. Bray packed up his things and left. He had to go back to change the dressings for the animals in the ward.
The harvester took the broom and went to clean the room.
Everyone around had dispersed, only Mu Ling was still holding the harvest, with a thoughtful expression on her face.
Xiang Bie went to fold Mu Ling's quilt. When he came out, he said to Mu Ling, "You should go back and wash up."
Mu Ling looked at Xiang Bie, pursed her lips, and said, "Brother Xiang."
Glancing at the harvester breeder not far away, Xiang Bie said, "I'll tell you later."
They returned to the dormitory together. Mu Ling went back to her room to tidy up, took a shower, and changed her clothes. When she came out, she saw Brother Xiang waiting for her in the corridor.
Seeing that her hair was wet, Xiang Bie frowned and said, "Come here?"
Mu Ling paused, and finally followed Brother Xiang to his room.
Xiang Bie asked Mu Ling to sit on the chair in the room, then he took out the hair dryer, plugged it in, stood behind her and blew her hair.
The hair dryer was silent. Mu Ling could feel her wet long hair being moved by the man, and hot wind was blowing down on her head.
"Brother Xiang." Mu Ling couldn't help but look up and asked Teacher Tony behind her: "Tell me, did my grandfather lie to me?"
"I don't know." Xiang Bie supported the back of her head and asked her to sit down, then said, "But I reminded Admiral Benchi not to tell anyone about this."
Mu Ling was stunned and turned to look at him.
Xiang Bie turned her head back and said, "Don't forget, your body is different. If your grandfather lied to you, it must be for your own good."
Mu Ling nodded: "I know, my grandfather will definitely not harm me, but I want to know what happened..."
At this point, Mu Ling thought of something: "Do you think I should go home?"
Xiang Bie paused: "Return to Planet 877?"
"Yes, I only brought a small amount of luggage with me when I came to God King Planet. Most of my things are still at home, including the things left by my grandfather, which are also locked up at home. I thought, should I go back and take a look? Maybe I can find something?"
The efficient hair dryer soon dried her hair. Xiang Bie continued to hold Mu Ling's hair and pursed his lips: "How long will it take?"
Mu Ling said, "Probably one or two days."
"You can't go alone."
"Definitely not." They have been investigating the rebels recently, and it would be easy for them to target them if they went out. She said, "I'll take Qiao Ru with me."
Xiang Bie said: "Qiao Ru's skills are average."
Mu Ling thought for a moment and said, "What about Lao Zhou?"
Xiang Bie said: "General."
"Maiya?"
"generally."
"Old Guo?"
"generally."
Mu Ling: “…”
Mu Ling raised her head again: "It can't be Nurse Xiaoyan, she still has to take care of the veterinary station."
"Yeah." Xiang Bie lowered his eyes and looked at her: "It's indeed inappropriate."
As they looked at each other from a higher perspective, Mu Ling suddenly felt a little strange.
She thought for a moment and said, "What about Brother Wei?"
Xiang Bie concentrated on blowing her hair: "Wei Li's skills are quite good."
Mu Ling raised her eyebrows: "Then let's settle on Brother Wei?"
"However," Xiang Bie changed the subject, "He's not careful enough. The last time he went out, he encountered a street gambling stall and was cheated out of 500 interstellar coins."
Mu Ling: “…”
Mu Ling sat down and looked forward: "What should I do? It's so unsafe for me to go out alone. And I have to go to a remote planet like Planet 877. It's really too dangerous without a skilled, careful and sensitive bodyguard by my side."
Xiang Bie said: "Yes."
Mu Ling touched her chin and said, "I wonder if a certain Marshal is free to accompany me?"
Behind him, the man's voice was quick and clear: "Yes."
