Chapter 099 "Retest, it might be this one."
After finishing a day of training, He Xile dragged his tired body and was extremely hungry, so he went straight to the restaurant and ate two large bowls of rice.
"It smells so good." He Xile held the bowl, feeling very touched.
Seeing this, the chef kept working on his food and reminded him, "Don't choke, sir."
He looked at Lord He Xile, who nodded "hmm" twice but didn't seem to take it to heart and continued to concentrate on eating, and couldn't help but smile.
——It’s obviously not the first time that His Excellency has eaten the food he cooked, but every time this little human is so supportive and praises his cooking for being delicious.
As a result, he couldn't help but put more thought into cooking when cooking for Mr. He Xile.
I really want to hear each other’s praise every day.
After He Xile had dinner, he returned to the room and couldn't help stretching his body. He had just entered the bathroom to take a shower and was running the water when a tentacle politely knocked twice on the glass window beside him.
“Knock, knock.”
After knocking on the window, the tentacle waited quietly and obediently for He Xile by the window.
He Xile: “…”
Good job.
This tentacle came at the perfect moment, just to take a bath!
Damn it!
They're all grown up, yet they have to shower together!? How is this any different from working professionals who still insist on dragging others along to the bathroom?!
and……
He Xile opened his terminal and took a look at the time schedule sent to him by Mr. Sang.
——It’s still too early for the two of them to cuddle and fall asleep.
He Xile shook his head seriously and said, "We're going to start the experiment tonight. I don't know if you've checked your mental strength beforehand since you came here at this time, but before the experiment begins, it's best if we don't come into contact with each other to avoid affecting the results."
The tentacle froze by the window.
how so?
He had finally overcome countless difficulties to appear here—
It would have been fine if this human didn't even help him wash up, but he couldn't even take a bath and told him to just go back???
"Okay, do you remember our previous agreement? Go back to your room and take a shower first. I'll check it when you come back, otherwise you are not allowed to go to bed." He Xile said, "I'll wait for you at ten o'clock. By the way, it's best not to come early, so it will be easier to time." As He Xile spoke, he opened the bathroom window to do not disturb mode.
Suddenly, the window of He Xile's bathroom became pitch black, and the tentacles still outside could not see anything. They could only vaguely hear the sound of He Xile humming a discordant tune.
tentacle:"……"
The tentacles began to dance wildly outside the window.
In the bathroom.
He Xile had already prepared the water. He threw the bath salt ball in and took a happy bath, washing away all the fatigue in his body. Then he changed into pajamas. As soon as he went out, he saw a tentacle lying dejectedly on the soft carpet in the room.
Hearing the sound of He Xile coming out, the tip of the tentacle immediately raised a little and turned towards He Xile.
He Xile: “?”
He Xile asked in surprise, "Didn't I tell you to go back?"
He Xi stopped talking halfway because of laughter.
He carefully observed the tentacle in front of him and found that it was actually different from the previous one. The suction cup of the previous tentacle was more rounded and beautiful, while this tentacle was slightly flatter.
He Xile was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, thinking that the giant octopus was too good at cheating.
But, meh.
He Xile stood at a distance not too far from the tentacles and re-explained everything about the experiment. It was amazing that he actually felt an emotion similar to "sadness" from the tentacles in front of him. Fortunately, the tentacles were relatively obedient. After listening to He Xile's words, they took the initiative to retreat slowly.
He Xile looked at the other person and thought of something: "Oh, there's one more thing."
The tentacles immediately stopped and turned to He Xile with "expectation".
He Xile: "Repeat what I just said to your brothers, so that they don't miss it and I don't have to explain it again. It will be convenient for you and me."
tentacle:"……"
Oh!
That’s it! ?
The tentacle left angrily.
He Xile looked at the direction where the tentacles left and couldn't help but smile.
I wonder what the giant octopus will look like when it turns into a human... This personality is so funny. But speaking of which, He Xile has never seen the other party's appearance as an adult. Could it be because the giant octopus is not yet an adult?
Hmm.
That is indeed possible.
Otherwise, his personality wouldn't be so clingy.
——For example, the two kittens usually like to stick to him very much, and when expressing their affection for He Xile, they are very enthusiastic and straightforward. Even the shy little sister will take the initiative to rub against He Xile. Most adults, although they also say that they feel comfortable getting along with him, will not be so straightforward.
but……
The giant octopus was so young, yet a single tentacle was already so thick, and its body was obviously even larger. Wouldn't it be able to ascend directly to heaven when it reached adulthood? Its height would definitely be exceptionally tall! Perhaps similar to Captain Xing, the four-meter-tall figure He Xile had seen when he first arrived at Haixinna, a height no one had surpassed since then?
Awesome.
He Xile thought to himself, I’m not envious.
He sat cross-legged on the bed, opened the terminal and logged into StarNet, and began to prepare for the next live broadcast, purchasing some necessary raw materials and searching for a suitable topic.
"We can do some of China's more famous themes. Haixinna's people are more familiar with the Blue Planet and China... But we can also do a Haixinna theme, which will make the audience feel familiar..."
He Xile muttered, "Hmm, how about we stick with the Hai Xinna theme? What are the keywords?"
When He Xile finally decided what he was going to do this time, he went to the library to look up some information and saved it, and then he finally logged off. As soon as his consciousness returned to reality, he came face to face with the tentacles not far away.
He Xile was stunned and asked in surprise: "You came so early?"
The tentacle couldn't speak, and only responded to He Xile's question with actions - the tip of the tentacle pointed at the clock hanging on the wall, indicating that the time on it was already nine forty-five.
He Xile suddenly realized: "Then we really need to prepare."
After saying this, He Xile was stunned on the spot.
——He suddenly remembered something.
Hai Xinna's watch is different from the watches on Earth. It doesn't have an hour hand, a minute hand, or a second hand. Instead, it has a simple digital display, so there's no ticking sound. So, if the tentacles can't see it, how can they know the location of the clock on the wall in He Xile's room and the time displayed on it?
In other words...
Can tentacles actually "see"?
Although I don't know what the exact principle is, this is Haixinna after all. Everyone will retain a secondary characteristic and gain corresponding abilities when they reach adulthood.
For example, now that Xile has ears, the sounds he hears are more subtle.
What if the giant octopus's ability happens to be related to this?
That day, because he was doing physical training for the first time, he overexerted himself, causing his chest to rub against his clothes, causing severe pain somewhere. There was no other way, so he sat on the bed and applied medicine himself. Wasn't that completely—
I was seen naked!
Ahhhhhhhh.
He Xile's face suddenly turned red.
He still maintained the previous posture of sitting cross-legged on the bed, but his eyes could not help but stare at the tentacles not far away. His face was calm and he did not show it, but the villain in his heart turned into a screaming chicken and fled frantically, just wanting to find a pit or a crack to bury himself.
15551.
Beautiful Haixinna can no longer accommodate me.
Mom, I want to go back to Earth QAQ
Just when He Xile was feeling unwell, the tentacles not far away suddenly jumped onto the bed as fast as the wind. With a little force, the tentacles pushed He Xile down on the bed. He Xile lay down, and the next second, the tentacles wrapped around He Xile like a twist of dough.
He Xile: “???”
He Xile was stunned.
What kind of shape is this?
When I looked again, it was exactly ten o'clock.
The tentacles strictly follow the experimental time.
He Xile was helpless.
He couldn't move, lying straight on the bed, his eyes fixed on the ceiling, and whispered, "Um, can you let me go first? We usually sleep together, and you should know that I like to sleep on my side. This position is a bit uncomfortable now."
The tentacles didn't move.
Even wrapped a little tighter.
He Xile was just wondering, but then he thought of something and his face suddenly became expressionless.
Octopuses, if I remember correctly, have eight tentacles. So, the one that's clinging to him now should be the first one, right?
At least I hadn't slept before.
Damn it, how could this happen!
Fortunately, the tentacle could understand what He Xile said. Not long after, it slowly loosened a little, giving He Xile space to change his position. He Xile immediately breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, He Xile held the tentacle with both hands, pried open the bottom of the white suction cup and various small corners, and observed carefully.
"Did you take a good bath at home?"
He Xile asked as he moved closer and smelled a faint fragrance on the tentacles, which was indeed similar to the fragrance on His Majesty's body before.
Hmm.
It must have been washed.
Sure enough, the tentacles pointed here and there.
Okay.
He Xile didn't see any dirty spots, so he nodded and said, "Then go to sleep."
Hearing this, the tentacles rolled up again. The tentacles, which were of appropriate thickness, went around He Xile's neck, becoming a natural pillow that just supported He Xile's neck. Then they went down along He Xile's back and around his legs.
Obviously, this tentacle has a strong personality, likes to take the initiative, and does not want to be a pillow.
He Xile thought about it and felt that he didn't feel uncomfortable sleeping in this position, so he just let go of the tentacles.
the next day.
Before dawn, the professors had already arrived at the laboratory.
A few people joked: "Except when I was young, I haven't gotten up this early in a long time."
"Hahaha, who isn't?"
"I just hope this experiment can go smoothly..."
As they were speaking, they heard the sound of uniform footsteps behind them. The professors turned around and saw the stern-faced emperor and the guards following behind him.
"Your Majesty, you are here." The crowd was not afraid of His Majesty and made way for him.
Wen Jiyu: "Let's start the test."
After about an hour.
Sang Qian stood up: "Your Majesty..."
He held the freshly-released lab report in his hands, his expression hesitant to speak. Frowning, he said, "We've double-checked the results, but they're not ideal. We were in close contact for four hours, so why aren't your disturbances as pronounced as those of the two little black cats?"
Wen Jiyu pursed his lips: "Really?"
His Majesty lowered his crimson eyes, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, he said expressionlessly, "Retest. This might be the cause."
After saying that, a thick tentacle stretched out from His Majesty's black flag and slapped the platform with a "slap".
Wen Jiyu raised his chin and said, "Let's test it."
Sang Qian: “…”
