There are a lot of painful things in the world, but I think there must be one of them, that is, when you sleep with your child in your arms, you suddenly lose sleep - as a responsible and caring father, you don't even dare to move at this time, because there are only two kinds of creatures that are the most difficult to coax in the world, one is the bear child, and the other is the bear child's mother - you see, the bear child is still in front of her mother, and if the bear child has no mother, it will be twice as difficult to coax.

This night's insomnia has tormented me......

Of course, if you want to ask if there is anything more painful in the world than sudden insomnia while sleeping with a child in your arms, then I tell you, there is also: that is, you finally fell asleep, the child in your arms woke up, and the thief spirit ......

I fell asleep in a daze when the sky was dark, and it felt like it must have been a few minutes before the bed began to churn, and then there was a murmuring cry of mercury lamps in my ears: "Stupid! Get up! Go downstairs to eat! ”

I opened my eyes in a daze, and found that it was already bright outside, and the puppet girl was sitting on my chest with her hair scattered, and her deep rose-red eyes were shining and full of energy: "Hey, why do you look listless?" ”

"I had insomnia last night" I yawned, not too tired mentally, but I had developed the habit of following a normal human routine, and suddenly I didn't sleep much at night, and I always felt weird, "It seems that you slept well." ”

"Stupid people get insomnia too?" The mercury lamp jumped out of bed with a crooked body, and I noticed that she had changed into a new princess dress today. I probably bought it yesterday when I went out to play, needless to say, it was something that came with a certain Barbie doll's suit, "That's good." Eat first, come back after eating and sleep for a while, you can't eat without eating......"

This chattering look really has the meaning of a precocious daughter teaching a lazy father. I smacked my lips. But I can't remember what happened last night and suddenly I lost sleep, I only remember that the mercury lamp was telling me what she saw. And then...... It seems that I suddenly heard something inexplicable, the other side, the signal, the bridge or something. Could it be that my insomnia is because of those few auditory hallucinations?

When I went downstairs to eat, I told everyone about my insomnia, and the general opinion of the masses was: It turns out that there are times when people lack heart and eyes. This view is undoubtedly the first to be put forward by Mercury Lamp, and then received an enthusiastic response from many people, which is really depressing. Sandora was the only one who was serious, and she also felt that I would lose sleep rather strangely: as a void creature. My mind has long since mutated to the point where it does not conform to any theoretical model, and the possibility of it being disturbed by external factors is zero, that is, as long as my biological clock decides to sleep, then basically the end of the world does not want to make me lose sleep for a second, so my insomnia last night is worth studying, but she can't study anything: I remember hearing three words in a daze, and I can't tell if those three words were said by mercury lamps or if I heard them wrong (the little doll doesn't remember what she said yesterday at all). She crackled and said a lot, and one of the biggest characteristics of this guy is that she can never remember what she says before going to bed at night, and she will never get up early the next day), so much clue Shandora of course can't analyze anything. Shallow has her own thoughts, and she thinks it has something to do with the Void Cataclysm......

And then no one paid any attention to her. Since the last time he linked the Abyss Mutation to the Void Cataclysm, which caused panic in people's hearts, Shallow has become a habit in the past two days. Everything is related to the Void Cataclysm, and it's nerve-wracking.

After breakfast, Lan ran to greet me and said that she was going to go back to Yakumo for a few days.

"I've been here for a long time, and I'm a little worried about Lord Purple." The fox said with a smile on his hand with two small packages in his hand, and he was still wearing a collar around his neck that he had only put on yesterday - it looked particularly conspicuous, "I brought gifts to Purple-sama and Reimu-sama, and I brought them with me." It's been so much of a disturbance for so many days, and I really appreciate your care. ”

I raised my eyebrows: "Why does it sound like it's gone forever?" "Don't say it, it's really a pity if the fox doesn't come back, there is one less inlay at home, I have one less blanket to warm my feet, a fox dog is missing, a little bubble is one less plush toy, Xiaoqian is one less fox sister, and one of our random people in our family is also missing a pillow...... Uh, I suddenly think that the blue fear can't be a refuge, right?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but reach out and touch Lan's head, and the fox girl's ears suddenly trembled: she thought I was going to touch her ears. "Well, you've worked so hard in our family these days......"

Lan looked confused, the question mark almost hit her head, she didn't know where my mind jumped, but continued my previous question: "Of course not, I'll be back soon." Oh, haven't I stayed here too long......"

"No, no," I quickly waved my hand, embarrassed to admit how many rude things I had just thought of, "You go talk to Reimu and let her take care of those youkai once in a while, especially the drunkard Cuixiang." Last time, I was drunk in the gold-encrusted rose and almost got into a fight with Yang Guo, and I also let out the words: 'I'll let you have a hand!' "You know how hurtful this sentence is. In addition, I don't mind if she sleeps during working hours, I don't mind her sleeping on duty, and I don't even mind her sleeping until she gets off work, but it's not appropriate for her to carry Zhang Simmons into the venue when she has a meeting in the hub management center - although the work is done well, can she take care of the boss's face a little? ”

Lan's expression was stiff, and his tail was frozen in mid-air: "...... Uh, good...... It's good. ”

Xiaoxue also came over to say goodbye to Lan Yiyi, and only smiled after the latter promised that he would come back in a few days, and then grabbed the fox's tail and rubbed it around: "Ha Luha, too, I have been with you since I was a child in the future, and you have lived at home for a long time, it is me and Xiaoqian's nanny." Sister Fox come back early, I'll teach you how to use your tail to weave a ...... of the Chinese knot."

As soon as Lan heard this, he turned around and ran away without saying a word, and his body was really as fast as rumored. A flash of yellow light disappeared......

Shallow and greasy next to me hit my arm with his head: "What do you say Yakumo Purple wants to see the collar on Blue's neck?" ”

"If you see it, you see it, you see Viska has a bell around his neck." As soon as the words fell, Viska next to him immediately shook his head happily, and the bell on his neck jingled. She loved the little toy, even though Pandora despised it.

Shallow looked at me cautiously: "But you didn't notice a line on the collar?" Engraved with 'Chen Jun's Family' ......"

Me: "...... Auntie, why didn't you say it earlier! ”

"And. The gift she prepared for Purple included a pack of dog biscuits......"

I lay on the table with a stiff face: with the speed of a fox and the convenience of spatial teleportation, I am afraid that she would have already bumped into Purple in a minute. At this time, Nima was too late for anything. Maybe soon all the monsters will know that their new landlord is a monster who keeps the fox fairy girl as a pet dog, by the way, there is also a life-shooting pill in the monster, so I can think that the whole world knows the way......

Just when I was already thinking about whether to kill someone, I suddenly saw a small blue figure flash from the kitchen door out of the corner of my eye, and quickly patted my head: "Qi Lunuo!" ”

The blue figure fell from mid-air, and then ran over and shouted loudly: "People didn't steal the cake, and the soy sauce bottle in the kitchen didn't come down by anyone." People are there to deliver frozen tofu to the kitchen - okay, what's the matter? ”

Me: Is the lack of heart eye of the "......" more serious than before?

"Where did you go yesterday? I didn't see anyone all day. ”

As I spoke, I picked an ice wing from Kiruno's back, stirred it in the orange juice at hand, and then put it back on her back, and the whole process went so smoothly that the ice goblin didn't even react. How could I suddenly feel that I was particularly guilty—after Yakumo Blue, there was another poor guy around me who was treated as a strange object.

Hm. Ever since the day she came to my house as a refrigerator, this guy has been reduced to a home appliance......

"People went to play with Miso! And then...... And then find someone to duel, eh? Who's dueling with you? Why can't you remember......"

I'll go, who did this poor kid fight with, and he was beaten and lost his memory?

Chiluno is also one of the guests in the family. But the sense of presence is really low, the main reason is that this guy is positioned as an electrical appliance at home, and her main responsibility is to provide cold drinks to everyone - so she has basically no sense of existence since November. And this guy doesn't usually communicate with the family much, she is comfortable playing the role of household appliances in the house, and when she is resting, she will run to Avalon to play with her friends for most of the day, coming and going casually, not even realizing that she is living in someone else's house, and over time half of the family forgets that there is a fairy living in the house. Later, Anwena felt that she should let Qiluno have something to do, but it was obviously unrealistic to continue to freeze popsicles and act as an air conditioner (it is important to point out here that Qiluno is a magical creature who dares to go out with a basin of popsicles to sell on the street when it is snowing heavily, and she doesn't realize that winter is coming when she can't sell popsicles), so our maid master borrowed Qiluno to the kitchen and let her be responsible for keeping the food fresh and making frozen tofu.

As a result, we now only think of Huan'er Jiu when we want to eat frozen tofu.

"It's a gift for you."

I took out a cardboard box from my personal space and handed it to Qi Lunuo, "Yesterday, everyone in the family went out to play, and they came back to share the spoils...... Well, you weren't at home when you distributed the gifts, so I'll put them away for you first. ”

"Gifts?" Qiluno stared blankly at the box in his hand, looking very confused, and then his eyes suddenly brightened, "Gift? For others? Do people have gifts? It's true? Not deceiving? ”

How much love does this poor child usually have......

"What is this?" Qi Luno happily took the cardboard box, this gift was brought back by my sister, it is estimated that only the careful sister in the family will remember that we still have such a dumb guest, oh yes, Anwena should also be able to remember: she has to greet Qi Luno every day when she cooks, the latter is a kitchen freezer.

"Shaved ice machine." I showed Chiluno the small machine, "which can turn large pieces of ice into fine ice huā, and the little bubble has modified it for you, and now it can be used with a special energy source, without electricity." Don't you like to make all kinds of cold drinks? This one is ...... than you."

Before I could finish speaking, Qiluno was already fiddling with the portable shaved ice machine with shiny eyes, and was overjoyed: "Aha, what a great thing, people want this." You can grind ice cubes...... I'll try ......"

Then she snapped off a piece of ice wing from behind her and stuffed it into the shaved ice machine. He gestured to me and asked, "Is it to press this green button?" ”

Me: "......" This unlucky kid has been bullied a lot, and as a result, he is used to breaking off his ice wings and rubbing the ice?

After some tinkering, Qiluno finally succeeded in making a more delicate and even ice huā than she had ever made before, and she was very happy. And I had a new understanding of the child's intelligence: this shaved ice machine only had a box for ice cubes and a unique button, and she studied it for fifteen minutes! How did this product's self-care ability develop? How many times would she have to starve herself to death if no one took care of her!

"Cirno loves this gift!" The ice fairy happily held up the shaved ice machine. Running around me "You're so nice, everyone is a good person...... "This is the first time I've seen a good person card with AOE ability.

At this time, I suddenly saw Bubbles walking in front of me with a small bubble, the former looked up with a small face, and the latter was carrying a small schoolbag, dragged by his mother in a daze, and followed by Ji Shanshan behind the two. The guy was carrying a school bag as well. Immediately I was surprised: "What are you guys doing here?" ”

"Haven't you seen a child send a child to school?" Bubbles rolled her eyes at me, "I still remember this, I'm afraid you've forgotten about it a long time ago." I've already done all the formalities for Little Bubbles, and I'll send her to the Emperor's Academy of Politics today. Well, Jill also followed, counting as an accompaniment. ”

"Isn't this king going to do it?" Ji Shanshan glanced at Bubbles pitifully, and the latter suddenly frowned like the landlord's wife in the old society: "Okay, but in the future, until Little Bubbles graduates, you can only eat pickles and flatbread." ”

Let Bubbles remind me of this before I remember. There is also such a thing as Little Bubble going to school, and this matter was discussed with me at the beginning. We all know that Little Bubble is a mutated Xiling host, and she can make other Imperial equipment produce super evolution, but she herself can't learn the production skills that a normal Xiling host should have. In addition, it may also be due to mutation, the growth direction of Little Bubble is abnormally off, and she has learned many skills that only fifteen or sixteen-year-old children can master at the age of three, but in terms of language, she has just learned to call Mom and Dad. So Bubbles proposes to send this child to school, at least with other children, maybe she can mature her personality early. At first, we were going to send her to preschool and play with the children brought by the heroes and leaders of the Macro World, and we tried it too - but this attempt failed, because Bubbles didn't learn anything but play, and used her abilities to successfully kidnap seventy or eighty bear children to miss a whole day in class, almost causing a panic incident—we realized that we couldn't let a powerful Xiling host mix with ordinary children who lacked self-control.

So Little Bubbles was finally dragged by her mother to the registration office of the Emperor's ** Academy...... I feel like this is even more nonsense!

This kid can't speak, so you let her go to the military academy? While playing with mud, learn from the genius elites of various worlds how to lead the army or how to govern the country? She really won't turn the entire military academy upside down?

However, before I could question this, Bubbles had already led her girl and nanny through the portal to Shadow City, and Sandora told me something more noteworthy: "Jun, the dive ship has self-destructed. ”

This news was immediately put in front of all the incidents and had the highest priority. My sister and Qianqian also knew that this was a big deal, so they stopped the chores they were doing, and soon, the family came to Shadow City, and then directly teleported from the special channel to the edge of the world where the deep diving test was conducted. When we arrived, Tavel was already waiting. Perhaps she hasn't left the test site for the past few days since the test began.

No one has any doubts about the self-destruction of the deep-diving ship, which is a matter of planning, and the deep-diving ship we are making now is a disposable, with all kinds of hard injuries, and the chance of returning to the sea is zero - in fact, it does not store the navigation data needed to return to the sea at all. In addition to collecting data from the abyss, the value of this prototype ship is to test how far the new empire's current deep-diving ship manufacturing skills can go. It's bound to self-destruct, and what we want to know is when it will self-destruct.

After completely diving into the abyss, the deep-diving ship was cut off from the material world, no one knows what happened to it, and there is no way to know whether it has been destroyed, the only way to confirm the fate of the deep-diving ship is to wait near the gate of the abyss, waiting for the navigation signal of the "Drifting Bottle" to come from inside, when this signal appears, it can be determined that the deep-diving ship has been completely destroyed, and according to the independent navigation log of the "Drifting Bottle" to determine the time period of the destruction of the deep-diving ship.

Five days have passed since the beginning of the deep diving operation, and just ten minutes ago, the outpost waiting outside the Abyss Gate received a signal from the first "Drifting Bottle" that successfully floated to the vicinity of the Abyssal Gate to request salvage. The "Drifting Bottle" is a safety database with an independent engine, and its return speed is a little faster than the speed of the deep dive, so according to calculations, the deep dive ship disintegrated about a day and a half ago, that is, it lasted a total of three and a half days in the abyssal environment.

It's not a great achievement, but it's not too bad – three and a half days meant it had crossed the watershed limit: the shallow abyssal zone
