Chapter 019 SOS! It’s fatal!
The low howl, accompanied by the whistling wind, echoed in the palace for most of the night.
He Xile no longer remembered when he fell asleep. He only knew that when he woke up, he was still curled up in the quilt, afraid that if he exposed a toe, it would be bitten by the little monster.
So boring.
He Xile turned over carefully.
There was a hazy light on the quilt.
It looked like it was already daytime.
He stealthily lifted a small corner of the quilt, and bright light immediately shone into the quilt.
Sure enough, it was bright outside.
You can see that the weather is nice today.
The sun shines on the earth, casting a golden glow. Countless green plants outside the window stretch out their leaves along the wind, full of vitality. In the distance, you can see wisteria flowers blooming on the corridor.
All the bright colors dispelled the unknown and fear in He Xile's heart.
——It’s broad daylight, there shouldn’t be any problems, otherwise this ghost would be too unsportsmanlike.
He Xile slowly lifted the quilt.
His back, which had been bent all the time, felt a little sore. He stretched out in bed and immediately heard his bones cracking.
Comfortable.
He Xile rolled over.
There was a knock on the door at the right time.
"Sir He Xile," the guard's voice came from outside the door. "Are you awake?"
"woke up--"
He Xile agreed in a long tone, jumped off the bed and opened the door for the guards.
The guards pushed the dining cart into the room.
The one who came today was the guard with vertical pupils. Compared with his colleagues, his personality seemed more eccentric.
He Xile greeted him and went to wash up first.
There was one more person in the room, a tall and mighty guard with extraordinary skills. He Xile suddenly felt very masculine and at ease. However, this time he washed much faster than before.
After coming out of the bathroom, He Xile went straight to the guard and sat down next to him.

The guard stiffened.
Ahhhh.
what to do! !
Humanity is so close to him now!
If it weren't for the clothes, their skin would have been stuck together! !
Woo woo woo.
The little human is so clingy that you can't help but want to give all the good things to him.
The guard enjoyed this kind of treatment for the first time and he couldn't help but feel happy. His head was wildly excited, but he didn't dare to move his body, for fear that He Xile would realize that they were too close and move to the side.
But this does not prevent the guards from doing other things.
He turned his head and looked at the human who was sitting upright next to him. He seemed a little nervous, but still couldn't help but yawned a little. He felt like his heart was melting.
So cute.
The guard slowed down his movements and brought out the dishes. "Sir, you look like you didn't sleep well last night?"
He Xile was stunned when he heard this.
He paused in his yawning.
Um?
There was such a loud noise in the palace last night, and it lasted for a long time. It would have been impossible for anyone to sleep, right?
He Xile was originally about to talk to the guard about what happened last night, asking who was howling, what happened, whether the other party was aggressive, etc., but after hearing what the guard said, he forced all his questions back.
He Xile said vaguely: "I really didn't sleep well. I'll catch up on some sleep later."
"Yeah. Sufficient sleep can ensure you have enough energy for the whole day."
The guard didn't think much of it.
He Xile finished his breakfast absentmindedly.
As the guard with vertical pupils left, he also reminded the previous one, "Didn't you say you wanted to sleep? Go get some more sleep. Even during the day, please don't go out to prevent accidents. If you need anything, please contact us through the terminal."
He Xile: "Okay, I will."
The door of the room was closed gently.
He Xile frowned and paced back and forth in the room.
After turning around twice, he sat in the rocking chair next to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out.
The entire palace was silent.
No moving people or objects were visible.
What happened last night? What were those sounds he heard?
He Xile couldn't figure it out, so he simply logged into the Star Network and went straight to the library.
Maybe the book will have the answers he wants to know.
For the entire morning and afternoon, except for eating, He Xile immersed himself in it and found some fragmentary information, which he was not sure whether it was the answer or not.
——While the people on Haixinna enjoy the convenience and advantages provided by the second characteristic, some of them also suffer.
The whole body will shed its skin in stages; the teeth will continue to grow until they penetrate the lower jaw; the bones will close and stretch every once in a while...all of these will cause people with those secondary characteristics to feel endless pain, and some may even develop bloodthirsty and violent cytokines.
He Xile recalled the sound made by the giant beast last night and the condition of the palace, and felt that it seemed to fit the situation.
It must be very uncomfortable, right?
He Xile searched for ways to relieve the pain, but was told that it was caused by the second characteristic and could not be relieved.
Too.
If there was a method on the Star Network, the giant beast would not be unaware of it, and martial law would not be the only option.
However, what the guard said before also took root in He Xile's heart - it seemed that not everyone could hear the howling of the giant beast in the palace.
So what does this mean?
&
For two and a half days, He Xile stayed in the room obediently.
He's adjusting well.
"You are truly remarkable. You really don't want to leave."
In the evening, the guard praised He Xile while clearing away the dishes. He encouraged him, "Just hold on for one more night. Tomorrow morning, we can go out for a walk."
"Okay." He Xile nodded and drank the last sip of milk.
The guard took the cup away as well.
Looking at the busy figures of the guards, He Xile hesitated and said, "Can I ask what is going on?"
The guard's face showed no special expression, and even his movements showed no hesitation. He simply said, "Your Excellency, you will know later."
"All right."
He Xile thought that to everyone in the palace, he was indeed an "outsider" who had just arrived here. Even he himself did not think that he would stay in the palace for long.
When he can support himself in the future, he will definitely leave here and find somewhere else to live.
But the roars every night and the way these people chose to deal with it did make He Xile feel a little uneasy.
Before leaving, the guard paused for two seconds and said, "I will consult your majesty later."
He Xile's eyes curved: "Thank you."
That night.
Ma Jieli asked He Xile to meet him.
He Xile took the initiative to say, "Let's go to the dessert shop we went to last time!"
As soon as he arrived at the place, he began to write and checked off the desserts that interested him.
——It feels so good to be rich!
Margery said, "A batch of peripheral dolls has already been shipped and are currently being mailed according to the order in which they were originally paid. If nothing goes wrong, all the dolls will be distributed tomorrow morning and we can start preparing for the next batch. I've mailed your doll directly to your current residence. Please keep an eye out for it."
Although the two of them set the conversation to privacy mode so that no one else could hear it, Margery still didn't dare to speak too clearly.
He Xile exclaimed, "Has it been mailed yet?"
"Yes." Margery asked, "What's wrong?"
He frowned and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you living with that person now?"
As the guardian of mankind, Your Majesty should take care of He Xile and of course keep He Xile by your side. Otherwise, how can you take care of him if they live in different places?
Could it be...
Just as he had thought before, this little human was abused?
Oh my god.
If it was someone else, Maggie might still be suspicious, wondering how that person could have the heart to treat humans so badly, but if it was His Majesty... the other person was indeed a cruel person and might really do such a thing.
"No, we live together now."
Seeing that Ma Jieli's eyes were not right, He Xile quickly explained, "But I want to give this doll to someone else."
He Xile had been completely absorbed in the strange things happening in the palace these days, and had forgotten to tell Maggie about this.
But it's not a big problem.
He can just mail it over.
Margery suddenly realized: "So that's it."
Desserts are served.
A faint fragrance wafted towards him, and He Xile's eyes lit up, and he began to eat with relish.
Wow, every one of them is delicious!
He swung his legs happily.
Margery sat opposite and continued to communicate with the people at the factory.
Halfway through, He Xile opened the terminal and sent a message to the man who had carried him on his shoulders.
"Hello, I once stood in line with you to buy a human doll. Do you remember? Could you please send me your address? I have a small gift for you."
The person quickly replied, "Haha, do you have any other small gifts? You don't have to be so polite. It was just a small favor that day."
He Xile blinked.
At his insistence, the man quickly sent an address.
He Xile took note and planned to send the baby over tomorrow when the palace was released from lockdown.
After the two men finished discussing their business, He Xile was also full and satisfied.
He happily went to the underground star network.
After washing up, He Xile lay on the bed, tucked the quilt carefully, and fell asleep.
late at night.
"Bang—"
The huge noise was like an earthquake, waking He Xile up suddenly.
He Xile had heard this kind of banging sound and low wailing sound for two consecutive nights before. By today, he had almost gotten used to it, especially since he knew that this might be a giant beast that was particularly uncomfortable with its second characteristic.
The behemoth couldn't control itself.
Very pitiful.
"How tragic."
He Xile muttered something and just turned over to continue sleeping when his body suddenly froze.
The moonlight shone obliquely into the house, casting the shadow of the floor-to-ceiling window on the opposite wall.
The place that should have been bright and empty now had a dark shadow of an unknown object, also imprinted on the wall, as if it had gone mad and was dancing wildly.
He Xile: “…”
Wh-what?
It looks like it's outside his window?
Is this a cane? Or something else?
He Xile was terrified.
He turned back slowly.
at the same time.
“Bang!”
There was a loud bang, and a long tentacle, which looked thicker than He Xile himself, slammed heavily on the floor-to-ceiling window where He Xile often stayed.
The window shook violently as if it couldn't bear the weight, but at least it held firm and didn't break immediately.
He Xile's pupils contracted.
In the palace!
how!
Yes!
This kind of thing!!!
He Xile collapsed.
Although he felt unwell, He Xile remained calm.
He stared at the window and slowly raised his body, ready to escape when the tentacles broke into the room. At the same time, he opened the terminal and frantically sent a message for help to the guards.
SOS!!!
It’s horrible!!!
……etc?
I saw the suction cup of the tentacle pressed against the floor-to-ceiling window. As it slid down slowly, I seemed to see a squeezed flat object, and the appearance of that object seemed somewhat familiar.
He Xile took a closer look.
Depend on.
It looks like his little doll! ? ?
...What? You don't have your own package to open?
