Chapter 036: Don’t talk about theology on Starnet anymore, it makes me annoyed.
"Hello, Mr. He Xile. Nice to meet you. My name is Yan Xiao, and I'm the staff member from the design institute responsible for helping you debug the terminal's mental power level." The man named Yan Xiao raised his hand and elegantly adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. His expression remained calm. "I was on a business trip earlier and missed your debugging. I'm very sorry."
He Xile: "...It's okay."
So, please stop spinning your tail before you say things like, "Nice to meet you!" And considering your tail is such a short-term business trip, it's really not very convincing!
Yan Xiao, however, remained calm from beginning to end, his tone steady and relaxed, and he didn't even blush when he told lies.
After a brief greeting, Yan Xiao got straight to the point. "My assistant Miaoqing said your mental strength test showed you're at level B." He waved, "Sir, don't just stand there. Come over here and sit down."
He Xile nodded: "It's B-level."
Yan Xiao was also quite tall. When He Xile approached, he only reached his thighs. It was hard to believe this was the same large yellow dog from before. However, compared to most of the people on Hai Xinna who had unusual body proportions, Yan Xiao's proportions were very much in line with human aesthetics. His large yellow tail also looked furry and eye-catching.
Noticing He Xile's gaze on his tail, Yan Xiao's tail turned rapidly.
He Xile was close and could clearly feel the wind at this moment.
etc.
Speaking of which...
——Back in the museum, He Xile had just woken up and was being taken to the hospital by the tall Captain Xing. He Xile was walking beside Captain Xing and inexplicably felt a gust of wind behind him.
The opponent's second characteristic is the wolf's tail, which also looks furry.
Could it be that...
Same thing? ?

After the two sat down, Yan Xiao prepared to start helping He Xile debug.
Adjusting the terminal to Class B was a bit more difficult. Yan Xiao brought all the necessary tools and placed them in a small box. As soon as the box was opened, it immediately appeared as if some mechanism had been set in motion, pushing out squares from bottom to top. Inside the squares were all tools and several small, delicate instruments. After the "transformation" was complete, the box had grown considerably larger.
He Xile stared at the box curiously.
The whole set looks like magic!
"Is it fun?" Yan Xiao asked.
He Xile smiled shyly: "It's fun."
“I made this myself.”
Yan Xiao spoke and began to patiently explain the principle - terminal translation, countless nouns piled up, He Xile knew each word separately, but as soon as they were combined together, he was confused.
At the end of the conversation, He Xile didn't understand a word.
Yan Xiao: “That’s it.”
He Xile immediately reached out and clapped his hands to Yan Xiao: "You are awesome."
The tail behind Yan Xiao instantly spun even more violently.
Human vision is always better at capturing dynamic things. He Xile couldn't help but look at the big tail again and again, and suddenly he understood why some Haixinna people were particularly dissatisfied with their second characteristic.
Halfway through debugging, Yan Xiao's terminal rang. He glanced at it and frowned slightly: "Sorry, sir, this call is more important. Can I go to the side and answer it first, and then come back to help you debug it?"
"sure."
He Xile nodded.
"Thank you very much." Yan Xiao stood up.
His tail finally stopped spinning and drooped downward, flicking a few times impatiently, clearly in a bad mood. He stepped aside, connected the communication, and lowered his voice to the person on the other end of the terminal, saying, "How do I know what to do? I have no control at all. I spent the entire Splash Festival in detention. Do you think I did this on purpose? This damn—"
At the end of his words, Yan Xiao's voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth.
He seemed to realize that his voice was too loud and turned around to look at He Xile.
He Xile was looking at the terminal and did not meet Yan Xiao's eyes.
Yan Xiao felt much more relaxed invisibly.
As for the guards beside him, they were not within his consideration.
He continued to talk to the man in a low voice.
He Xile was bored and used his terminal to search: "Myopia correction technology"
Looking at the whole row of information he had searched out, He Xile breathed a sigh of relief.
As expected, in an interstellar society in the year 4297, how could the scientists here still not have mastered even a minor problem, correcting myopia? And perhaps this was the charm of Hai Xinna: due to the various genetic combinations and the presence of secondary traits, people here rarely develop myopia, and even if they do, it's corrected early on.
After a while, Yan Xiao returned.
He pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses again and said, "Debugging continues."
He Xile looked at Yan Xiao a few more times.
I have to say, these glasses make him look very gentle.
Very suitable.
This time, no one came to disturb him, and soon, Yan Xiao successfully completed the debugging: "Sir, your terminal level is now B-level. Although your physical values in reality are a bit low, the Star Network only recognizes mental power, so you can try to pilot the mecha. The National Mecha Summer Tournament is about to begin, I wish you a happy game. By the way, if you feel any discomfort while using the Star Network in the future, please log out first and contact me."
Yan Xiao added He Xile's contact information.
He Xile nodded: "Dr. Yan, thank you, I will remember it."
"You're welcome."
Seeing this, the guard behind him bowed slightly and said in a respectful but unquestionable tone: "Dr. Yan, since the terminal has been debugged, you can leave now."
Have a nice meal.
He had an indifferent expression and didn't move his body: "Well, but I still have something to tell you, Your Excellency."
Guard: "I won't leave."
"I know."
Yan Xiao's expression was indifferent. When he looked at He Xile, he met the latter's penetrating eyes. His lips moved, as if he was having trouble making a decision. Finally, he opened his mouth and asked, "Have you figured it out?"
He Xile: "Are you talking about your business trip?"
Yan Xiao's expression was complicated, knowing that He Xile had deliberately kept silent. "...Yes, it was about that incident." He felt even more guilty, and said apologetically, "I'm deeply sorry for my previous behavior." He reached out and pushed a delicate little gift box on the table beside him. "This is a small gift I brought you as a token of my apology. Please accept it."
He Xile immediately shook his head: "No, no."
He recalled the scene of stroking the dog's head and couldn't help but look at Yan Xiao's head. He was also embarrassed, with a blush on his face. He said embarrassedly, "I have done something wrong too."
Although I was a little frightened at the time, I was more ashamed.
——You shouldn’t have stretched out your claws!
"No, you didn't do anything wrong."
Yan Xiao's lips curled up slightly, and he let out a smile. "You are a human, so you probably didn't react at the time, right? In any case, you must accept this gift. It's actually not a valuable item."
Without waiting for He Xile to answer, Yan Xiao stood up and said, "Anyway, after apologizing to you and gaining your understanding, I feel much more relaxed. I should have talked to you more, but I have other work on hand, so I have to leave now."
After being detained for fifteen days, he had a huge backlog of work.
He Xile expressed his understanding: "Okay, goodbye, Dr. Yan."
Yan Xiao cleaned up the things on the table and left quickly.
As soon as the man left, the guard moved closer and whispered, "Sir. Although Dr. Yan has just apologized, and I don't want to interfere too much with your friendships, you need to be more careful when contacting him in the future. If he wants to meet with you alone or makes any inappropriate requests of you, you must not agree."
He Xile burst out laughing.
He couldn't help but say, "I'm not an ignorant child. I know all this, and I will protect myself."
Guard: “…Yes.”
He Xile looked at the gift beside him.
He thought about it, reached out and took it, opening the package.
Inside the package was a very exquisite music box.
"Wow."
This music box is very delicately made. As soon as the music starts, beautiful little people will appear and perform a simple love story on the small stage.
He Xile suddenly remembered that on his birthday, several girls from school came to visit him in the hospital with gifts, also music boxes. Although not as exquisite as this one, it was still a very good gift.
I really miss those days.
and.
The toolbox was made by Yan Xiao himself, so this music box was probably made by him as well. Someone who puts so much thought into a gift...
He Xile said, "I suspect the situations you described will not occur."
"We must always be on guard against others," the guard explained.
He Xile's eyes curved: "I know."
The two walked out together.
The music box was too big and heavy for He Xile to hold, so he asked the guards to carry it. He Xile walked beside him, holding the small bouquet of flowers that the big octopus had given her earlier, swaying back and forth.
The two chatted and laughed as they walked towards the room.
Only halfway there.
He Xile saw the familiar black cloak from afar.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
He Xile took a few quick steps and greeted, "Hello, Your Majesty."
Wen Jiyu, who was followed by several guards, paused and the waves on his cloak stopped swaying.
The two parties stand face to face.
The guard next to He Xile was holding a box containing a music box, so it was difficult for him to perform a full bow, so he only performed a half bow.
Wen Ji looked at the box and asked with interest, "What is this?"
He Xile immediately showed his white teeth and explained happily: "Today, Dr. Yan from the design institute came to help me debug the terminal. This is a gift from him."
"Oh." Wen Jiyu immediately lost interest and responded coldly.
He didn't care much about Dr. Yan's gift. Instead, he looked at the bouquet in He Xile's hand and felt satisfied.
——Very good. The guards held the gifts given by others, but this human held the gift given by that stupid tentacle in his hands.
Although Wen Jiyu felt that there was a gap between him and the tentacles, they were his tentacles after all and were part of his body.
The little human paid attention to the tentacles, which immediately put him in a good mood.
"That's right."
Wen Jiyu said, "Don't talk about theology on Starnet anymore. It makes me sick."
...Your Majesty is indeed a little robot, watching his live broadcast!
"I'll never mention it again."
After He Xile finished speaking, he thought of the note and hesitated before saying, "Oh, there was something else that happened before that I thought was a little strange." He briefly recounted the incident of being bumped into after the fireworks party and the "Fall Plan" written on the note. "When I saw the contents of the note, my first reaction was that I thought it was some new scam, so I ignored it and didn't tell anyone. But later, the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong, and I felt I should tell you. I still have that note; it's in the Star Network warehouse."
As he spoke, He Xile carefully observed Wen Jiyu's expression.
The subsequent suspicions about the "Fall Plan" were just He Xile's guesses and had not been confirmed.
And Wen Ji and His Majesty are the kings of the entire Haixinna. Is he wasting their time by saying this to them?
The young king's expression remained cold after hearing everything He Xile said, but tiny scales began to appear on the black lines on his face and never faded away.
His eyes were cold: "I know."
His large palm landed on He Xile's head. Wen Jiyu then ruffled He Xile's soft hair, messing it up completely before finally stopping. He scoffed, "It's been so long... you still haven't given up."
