Xie Sen copied and pasted the comment and pressed the reply option.
'Reply failed'
Xie Sen was stunned, and glanced at the signal on the screen. It was full. He refreshed the page, and the two most popular comments under the fight video suddenly disappeared.
"What happened? Why did both of the golden vests delete their replies?"
"Looks confused."
"My curiosity has become even stronger!"
There were more comments from netizens, who came up with various reasons why the two suddenly deleted their comments. The one with the most likes was that the two deans had revealed some important information.
In the Contracted Beast Research Institute, a tall and handsome man sat back in his office chair, his hands spread out, and said to the man staring at him with a smile: "Don't be angry, you see, I didn't say my guess, and the reply was deleted."
"How dare you say that? You think I didn't know that if I hadn't noticed it in time, you would have replied to your guess under your own comment after you fished for a reply!"
The man was tall, with his hands on the desk, his handsome face stern: "Mu Lin, can you use your brain a little? You are such a chatterbox, and you want the whole world to know everything."
Mu Lin leaned forward, and the two of them were face to face and very close. Mu Lin put his arm around his neck, raising his eyebrows: "What are you afraid of? Aren't you here?"
The man glanced at him and said, "I won't be your assistant forever."
Mu Lin narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why not? Gu Luo, no matter what time, I will never agree to your resignation."
Gu Luo took his hand from his neck and said, "Let's get down to business. I just contacted Dean Ma and deleted his comments. Now we have to think of a way to curb netizens' speculation."
Mu Lin shrugged nonchalantly: "It's very simple, just give them a convincing guess."
"Simple? Come up with one for me right now!"
Mu Lin said: "You must follow my comments, otherwise the inconsistency will easily lead to random guesses. It is a miracle but not a plant. My bold guess is... it is an animal!"
Gu Luo rolled his eyes: "Do you find it convincing?"
Mu Lin tapped the table lightly: "Others may say this is unconvincing, but I think it's different. I am an authority on contracted beasts. I have studied contracted beasts for so many years and have seen all kinds of contracted beasts. It's not surprising that one that looks like a plant appears."
Gu Luo frowned: "When netizens know the truth and your guess is wrong, it will affect your authority."
"What's the big deal? Just explain the reason for hiding it." Mu Lin looked at him with a smile, "Why, are you worried about me?"
Gu Luo ignored him and turned on his bracelet to make a call: "Let's make a backup plan first. I will contact Xie Sen and meet him to confirm the specific situation before deciding whether to reply in this way."
"No need to confirm. I am sure that my guess - he is a plant-type contract beast master - is absolutely correct." Mu Lin said confidently, "I have been very interested in plant-type beast masters for a while. After careful research, he completely meets the requirements."
Gu Luo glanced at him and said, "Very interested? Indeed, males from other professions don't know much about plant-type beast owners, and most of their dream lovers are long-eared rabbit contract beast owners. Only males from our profession have almost all dream lovers of plant-type beast owners."
"My interest is not that kind of interest. Are you jealous..."
The call was connected. Gu Luo put his index finger to his lips to signal Mu Lin to be quiet, and asked politely, "Excuse me, is this Xie Sen?"
Xie Sen remembered what his father had said and was worried that someone would investigate the matter of the chili tree and ask him about the situation, so he answered every call.
"Yes, who is it?"
Gu Luo got straight to the point: "I am the assistant to the director of the Contracted Beast Research Institute. We want to know your identity exactly. Is it convenient for you to come to the institute?"
Xie Sen was puzzled: "My identity?"
"Yes, according to our speculation, you are most likely the owner of a rare plant-type contracted beast. Perhaps you already know this yourself, and you have concealed your identity very well."
Xie Sen was confused. What was a plant-type contract beast master? He just had a plant system!
"Did you misunderstand something?"
"Although it is almost certain, in order to confirm the accuracy, I hope you can come to the research institute." Gu Luo said.
Xie Sen said: "I'm sure I'm not."
Gu Luo said calmly, "Are you worried that it will cause trouble if others find out? We promise to keep it confidential for you. There are all kinds of speculations on the Internet now. If we don't deal with it in time, you will attract more attention. Only when we confirm your identity and understand the relevant situation can we develop a perfect solution."
Xie Sen was convinced. He had seen the heated discussions online. He was just worried that it would affect him. It was good that the other party could solve it.
"Okay, I'll go over later. I hope that after you confirm that I'm just an ordinary person without an awakened contracted beast, you can help me dispel those random speculations online."
"no problem."
The two parties hung up the call, Xie Sen searched for the address of the Contracted Beast Research Institute, and turned on automatic navigation.
Gu Luo said to Mu Lin: "He doesn't seem to know his identity."
"This is normal. I've read his information. He was adopted. He has been ridiculed by his classmates for not awakening his contracted beast in recent years. The public knows too little about plant-type contracted beasts."
"What a poor child. I heard that he attempted suicide a few days ago. Fortunately he was rescued." Gu Luo sighed.
Mu Lin said: "Remember to contact the Ministry of Education and include plant-type contracted beasts in the contracted beast common sense course this year. Although plant-type beast masters have not appeared for many years, we should still understand them and avoid situations like Xie Sen from happening again."
Gu Luo glanced at him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he lowered his head to write things down in his work log: "Okay."
After Xie Sen arrived at the research institute, he contacted Gu Luo and was taken to Mu Lin's office by Gu Luo.
Mu Lin smiled brightly and held out his hand: "Hello, I'm Mu Lin."
Xie Sen was very surprised. Mu Lin was tall and strong, with handsome features. He looked very young, which was very inconsistent with his identity.
He shook hands with him politely: "Hello, Dean Mu, I am Xie Sen."
"Don't be so reserved. Can you let me see your plant contract beast?" Mu Lin asked with a smile.
Seeing Mu Lin's sure expression, Xie Sen suddenly thought: If he said that the chili tree was not a contracted beast, then how to explain its existence?
Now that he thought about it, it seemed that it would be best to let them mistakenly believe that the pepper tree was a contracted beast, and he didn't need to think about how to explain it.
He summoned the chili tree. When Mu Lin saw the chili tree, his eyes lit up instantly. After carefully examining it, he asked Xie Sen, "You have a connection with it, right?"
"Yes." Xie Sen nodded.
"Will it obey your instructions?" Mu Lin asked again.
"yes."
"Except for the fact that it's a plant-type contracted beast, there is no other explanation." Mu Lin concluded.
Xie Sen thought, that’s because you don’t know the existence of the system.
Gu Luo said: "I have contacted the inspection department. It would be best if we could give him a physical examination. We also need to keep relevant data records. There is too little information on plant-type contracted beasts."
"I don't want to," Xie Sen said immediately, "I don't want to be checked."
"Don't worry, it's just a scan with an instrument. No injections are needed. It won't hurt," Gu Luo comforted him. "The body of a plant-type beast master is very fragile. You look very thin. After we understand your physical condition, we can formulate a corresponding nutritional adjustment method for you."
"No need, I'm fine." If the examination shows that he is not a plant-type beast master, he will have to find a way to explain.
Gu Luo didn't expect him to be so repulsive and looked embarrassed.
Mu Lin looked Xie Sen up and down: "Could it be that you are pregnant before marriage and are afraid that we will know?"
"Pfft..." Xie Sen looked at him in shock, "Are you kidding me? I'm a man... a male! It's impossible for me to get pregnant!"
Mu Lin shook his head: "Plant types are almost all female, and they are all females with high fertility rates. Speaking of this, I have to remind you to wear a condom during unmarried adult activities."
Xie Sen's mouth twitched, and he said firmly: "I am a minority male, I can't be a female."
"It's very simple," said Gu Luo, "Just do a physical examination and you'll know."
Xie Sen couldn't stand people questioning his gender, thinking that they said there was very little information related to the plant type, and they might not be able to tell whether he was a plant-type contract beast master.
Anyway, his pepper tree is very persuasive as a contracted beast.
He gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay."
Gu Luo took him to a testing room. The testing process was very simple. Xie Sen lay in an instrument that looked like a space capsule. After a while, he was notified that the examination was over.
He was taken back to the office and sat alone on the sofa drinking water while Gu Luo and Mu Lin went to discuss his examination data.
Mu Lin looked at the data and said proudly, "I was right, it's the owner of the plant-type contracted beast."
Gu Luo frowned: "Plant-type beasts need to take in plant nutrients to induce awakening. Now there are fewer and fewer edible plants. The plant-type beast master has not appeared for many years. He develops very slowly. It is a miracle that he awakens now."
He lowered his eyes from the test data: "He is a female."
"That's obvious. I've seen all kinds of beast masters, and none of them are as short as the male beast masters." Mu Lin spread his hands.
Gu Luo glared at him and warned him, "Don't ever say this in front of him." He pondered for a moment, "Well, he seems to reject the female identity. He is in poor physical condition and cannot be stimulated psychologically. I won't tell him this for now."
"I think it's okay. He's not in good health anyway. Just remind him not to do adult activities." Mu Lin nodded.
Xie Sen didn't have to wait long before Mu Lin and Gu Luo returned to the office. Mu Lin said, "You are indeed a plant-type beast master, a... male."
Xie Sen smiled: "I told you so," he patted his chest, "Man, masculine!"
He secretly thanked his luck that they didn't know much about the plant system, so he didn't reveal the truth and saved himself the trouble of explaining.
Gu Luo suppressed a smile and coughed lightly: "You develop very slowly. Your body is not yet an adult even though you are an adult in age. It is best not to do adult sports in the next year. We will see how your body is doing after a year."
Xie Sen thought that all the people here were men, so he had no idea and nodded: "Yeah."
Gu Luo said: "Your identity is special and should not be made public. The solution we are thinking of is that Dean Mu will publish a comment saying that your pepper tree is not a plant, but a plant-like animal."
Xie Sen was very satisfied with this treatment. Thinking of the plants that would be activated later, he suddenly had an idea: "Why not call it a mimic beast that can imitate various plants it has seen? It just so happens that I am a plant-based person."
"Okay, it's more credible." Mu Lin nodded.
