Chapter 17 The Family Bug
Blue Star usually wakes up at 5:00 in the morning, which should be a habit developed over the years.
But today is the time when He Yan usually wakes up, Xiaomi Li has already consciously gone to the next room for training, and Lan Xing is still sleeping soundly.
In order for Lan Xing to sleep for a while longer, He Yan could only lie quietly on the bed and act as an insect-shaped pillow.
He originally wanted to squint for a while longer, but Lan Xing's sleeping posture is really bad, and he often rubs against places that shouldn't be, disturbing him to sleepless at all.
At almost 9 o'clock, Lan Xing finally woke up. Seeing He Yan who was lying stiffly beside him like a log, he grinned and said "Morning" three times, then lifted the quilt and jumped up. Full of energy, he said that he would make breakfast supplements for He Yan.
Such a squeamish worm doesn't have the energy to get up?
Wait, what does it mean to feed him breakfast?
What to make up?
Hearing the fierce battle sounds from the kitchen again, He Yan rubbed his forehead helplessly.
"Let me do it." He Yan came to the kitchen, took off Lan Xing's apron and put it on himself, and beat the egg with one hand while heating the oil pan.
"Is it still half-familiar?" He Yan asked.
"Well, I want three." Big glutton Lan Xing nodded obediently, and raised three fingers.
"Go outside and wait. I'll have to wash your hair for you when it gets oily." He Yan said disgustedly.
Lan Xing didn't mind at all, and yelled as he walked out of the kitchen, "Xiaoli, come out for breakfast."
But Xiao Mi Li just responded with a muffled sound, but didn't come out immediately.
After He Yan finished the breakfast for the three worms, Xiaomi Li came out of the room with her hands behind her back, and she seemed to be holding something behind her.
He Yan saw that the tentacles on the top of his head were curled up nervously, and knew that he must have something to say.
That day after Xu Mili was called a "house thief" by Ross and burst into tears, before they had time to understand the truth, there was an explosion, and then Lan Xing was injured and hospitalized, and the matter was delayed.
He Yan originally planned to find some time today to chat with Mi Li, but it seems that it is unnecessary, and he has to speak out to solve the knot.
Lan Xing has sharp eyesight. He was digging egg yolks with a small spoon to eat, but he put down the small spoon in his hand when he saw the millet grains.
"I, I have something to tell you." Xiaomi Li stood upright, "Actually, I had a name before, and it was Maita, and my female father was the female servant of Luo Luo's male father."
He Yan learned the history of the Zerg race, and knew that female servants were similar to concubines in the feudal period of the original world. They were lower than female concubines and had no status in the family.
Although the Zerg has added and revised many bills to protect the rights of female insects in the past ten years, because the male insect protection law has always existed, it is still common for male insects to abuse and exploit female insects.
Especially female servants with bad backgrounds, many of them were tortured to death by male insects for no reason.
Seeing Rhodes' domineering and hierarchical attitude, he knew that Mi Li's female father was having a hard time at home.
Later, through Xiao Mili’s statement, he learned that his male father, McCarter, was the second son of a famous family in Capital Star, and indeed he had abused female insects and caused many female insects to die.
As a result, McCarter was assassinated by an illegal female protection organization called Femtosecond.
After McCarter's death, Ross became the target of public criticism. The reason was that when McCarter was assassinated, Ross was by his side. As a female wife, she failed to protect her hero, which was equivalent to an accomplice.
Ross was forced to stay on the capital planet, so he could only bring his male cub, Maid, to planet 2779, and changed Maid's surname to Luo.
Xiaomi Mili and his female father were also brought to planet 2779 as domestic servants, but not long after arriving here, his female father died of illness.
During the saddest time for Mi Li, the Ross family suddenly lost valuables, including the wheat family crest that Rhodes regarded as a treasure, and that badge was finally found under Mi Li's pillow.
"I didn't steal it, I swear." Xiaomi Li raised her small hand high.
"We believe in you." He Yan beckoned Xiaomi Li to come over, and asked him what was hidden behind him.
Xiaomi Mili hesitated for a moment, but still handed a piece of paper to He Yan.
"Contract" was written crookedly on the paper.
"Xiaomi promises that she will only listen to He Yan and Lan Xing in this life, and listen to everything she says."
Although the font is immature, it can be seen that it is written with care.
"I can only write this." Xiaomi Li was a little nervous, afraid that He Yan and Lan Xing would be disgusted, "You can add, I can work more and eat less in the future."
Blue Star doesn't know how to do housework, and when He Yan is busy, Xiaomi Mili does it, which is actually very helpful.
He Yan handed the paper back and said seriously: "We are friends, and friends don't need a contract."
"Friends—" Xiaomi Mi chewed the word in a low voice.
When Rose came to the door for the first time, Blue Star took him to hide in the training room to eavesdrop, and he heard He Yan say this word at that time.
"Well, friends are meant to help each other, just like Blue Star usually teaches you boxing, I will cook breakfast for you, and you will help with housework, this is a friend." He Yan explained to him seriously.
Seeing that Xiao Mi Li seemed to understand this meaning, He Yan asked him: "So, are you willing to be our friend?"
Xiaomi Mili nodded vigorously: "Yes, I am willing to be your friend."
At this time, Lan Xing put his head together: "He Yan, I think you are wrong."
Xiaomi Li, who was already happy, froze for a moment, then became nervous again, and He Yan also threw a small eye at Lan Xing—shut up.
"Really, I think we are more like a family of bugs." Lan Xing looked serious.
Hearing this, the small tentacles on the top of Mi Li's head shook unconsciously, seeming to prefer the term "a family bug".
He Yan thought: It's fine, anyway, as long as Xiao Mi is happy.
Seeing that the two worms did not object, Lan Xing went on to say: "Yes, you are the male father, I am the female father, and the millet grains are our worm cubs."
He Yan: ... You shouldn't expect anything decent from this worm with a broken brain.
Seeing that Xiaomi Li was giggling because of Lan Xing, He Yan angrily stuffed a whole fried egg into Lan Xing's mouth: "Eat."
While Chewing the Fried Egg with puffed cheeks, Lan Xing looked carefully at He Yanfei with his eyes.
After having breakfast like this, He Yan tidied up and planned to go out.
He wanted to go to the little house to see if there were any clues about the explosion, but he was afraid that Lan Xing would be worried, so he only said that he had to do something and let Lan Xing and Xiaomi stay at home.
But Blue Star insisted on following.
"You want to go back to the little house." Lan Xing said to the point.
Sometimes he wondered if Lan Xing's skull was really broken: "Go back and see if you can find the cause of the explosion."
"Then I'll go with you." Lan Xing changed shoes with him.
He had no choice but to take Lan Xing with him in the end and let Xiaomi stay at home by himself.
Xiao Mi Li nodded obediently, and received a kiss from Lan Xing before parting: "Cub, stay at home and wait for us to come back."
He Yan couldn't see it anymore: I'm tired, whatever.
——
When we came to the small house, the first floor had been cleaned by the hands arranged vigorously.
More than half of the stairs to the second floor were blown away, so they could only move up slowly against the wall.
Two walls of the studio on the second floor collapsed, and those two walls happened to be where the environmental simulation cabin was leaning against, and a gap was blasted out of the roof.
He Yan remembers very clearly that at that time, he only put less than one gram of Force Stone powder into the environment simulation cabin, and the simulation state was only 0.5 times the magnetic field of planet 2779. He also asked the intelligent assistant to help him see that it was impossible for such a serious situation to happen. explosion.
He squatted down and searched around the ground, and finally found the head of the smart assistant in a corner, which was where the data storage was located.
"He Yan, be careful." Seeing that he was going to touch something on the ground, Lan Xing, who had been following him step by step, reminded cautiously.
"It's okay, Dali has arranged for a test, and there is no source of danger here now." He comforted Lan Xing.
The opening of the data storage was already crooked, and it was covered with a layer of wrapping that melted and then condensed. It couldn't be opened normally at first glance.
He Yan took out the tool knife and pried it out, and found that the package was pulled out without much effort, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"He Yan?" Lan Xing called out uneasily when he saw that he had stopped moving.
He Yan put the memory back on the ground: "There may be bugs here."
Lan Xing reacted quickly: "You mean that besides the one arranged by Dali, there were other bugs coming?"
"Maybe." He didn't say much. He took out a tester from his bag, put it on the data storage device and circled it around. After confirming that there was no danger, he pried open the opening with a utility knife.
The opening popped open, but the inside was empty—the memory card was gone.
He Yan's expression became serious.
"Who could it be?" Blue Star asked.
He Yan shook his head, he didn't know, who would care about the data of a small experiment?
He bought the environmental simulation cabin on Xingwang. Although it is second-hand, 90% of it is new. Before using it, he also asked the smart assistant to check its safety.
I don't know if can find clues from the machine.
He thought for a while and dialed Hert's communication: "Old He, do me a favor and find out who the behind-the-scenes seller of my environmental simulation cabin is. The number is 2977M965k346L."
He Yan reported the equipment code to Dali based on his memory.
While waiting for a reply, He Yan packed up some materials and data scattered on the ground, and Lan Xing followed carefully.
After half an hour, Dali returned the message: "The seller behind the scenes is Wanxiang Company."
"Vientiane?" He Yan had a vague impression of this company.
"Yes," Herter said habitually, "Guess who is the original major shareholder of this company?"
He Yan: "Ross?"
Hert was obviously shocked by the news from the communication: "He Yan, you are too smart."
"Yes, it's Ross."
The author has something to say:
Mir: He Yan, we have cubs.
He Yan: Shut up.
