Cub Raising Association

Chapter 16: Sixteenth day as a childcare worker

Views:

Xie Luan was still in a daze, unable to react at all, but the owner of the eyes on the other side moved.

He didn't make any big moves, the other party just approached slightly to confirm the aura of the young man more clearly, then turned his head and gently touched the young man's sallow fingertips with his light white fingertips. a bit.

A touch doesn't seem to be enough.

The breath mark left behind is too shallow, and the cold and handsome face of the other party still seems to lack expression, but the action of touching the young man's fingertips is very serious, and he touched his lips on the young man's index finger for a second time. .

The two movements are relatively consistent, so that this movement looks a bit like kissing the fingertips of the young man, but in fact, this adult Knox, who has just left the cub form and advanced to humanoid form, is only in the According to his instinct, he left a breath mark on Xie Luan.

Feeling the cool and soft touch on his fingers, Xie Luan finally reacted with hindsight.

At this time, the chaotic brain that was smashed into a paste finally calmed down a little. Xie Luan looked at the pair of pale cyan vertical pupils nearby, and he could actually infer the identity of the other party.

"Yay..."

The confirmation is confirmed, but when he wakes up, the fluffy cub that was originally nested next to him suddenly grows so big - Xie Luan is really puzzled.

The humanoid form of the Knox race in adulthood is no different from a normal human if it ignores the eyes and tail.

The eyes are vertical pupils as in the pup, and the tail... The fluffy tail in the pup is completely different in adulthood. It looks like a tail covered with hard scales, similar to the tail of a dragon, and the tail Xie Luan saw at this time was silver.

It's pretty, but it looks kind of cool.

When his name was called, the handsome silver-haired Knox narrowed his pupils slightly. This same reaction as when he was a cub made Xie Luan's messy mind a lot clearer.

Noticing the young man's gaze, Yayi moved his silver tail to Xie Luan's side, then stared at the latter silently.

As a cub, it purrs only in a low voice, but by the time it is able to speak as an adult, the adult Knox is silent.

The first words that a cub says after reaching adulthood are more memorable, just like the human side will teach each other to call each other father and mother shortly after the child is born, and most races in the interstellar are also the same, the parents He will teach his own cubs to call Mom and Dad, hoping to hear when the cubs grow up and can talk.

Cubs that grow up without their parents are of course not taught about it like other cubs with parents.

The first sentence of adulthood was what he wanted to say. Yayi still had only a vague feeling in his heart. He knew that it was related to the young human being in front of him, but he couldn't think of the exact words for the time being.

Thinking this is an important matter, the silver-haired Knox pursed his lips slightly and thought silently.

Xie Luan has quickly put down the hand that was touching the other party's silver hair. Just now, his finger was pecked twice by the other party. Now, looking down at his own finger, Xie Luan's mood is still a bit tangled.

If the other party is still in the form of the previous cub, Xie Luan will certainly not feel it. After all, when the other party is still a fluffy cub, he will often lick his fingers. But in adult humanoid form, it feels completely different.

But thinking that the other party's behavior just now was completely unintentional, and it was only two fingers kissed, it was nothing at all, and Xie Luan calmed down again.

Looking at the silver tail moving in front of him, Xie Luan thought for a while, then tentatively reached out and touched it.

Touched by the young man, the silver tail was the same as the fluffy tail of the previous cub period, and the tip of the tail was slightly tilted unconsciously.

Seeing the familiar tail-twisting movement, Xie Luan couldn't help but treat the silver-haired Knox in front of him as a cub.

The other party is wearing the work clothes that the staff in the branch will wear. I don't know how the other party got this suit. Could it be... an ability

Xie Luan thought so because he saw that his other set of work clothes were well stacked on the small wooden cabinet, and the fluffy and round Knox cub could always run into his room by himself. The door to his room was locked at night, but the cub was still able to open it.

A cub has reached adulthood so quickly. When Xie Luan brought the silver-haired Knox who was following him in front of everyone, all the employees in the Yunbao branch except Zarad were stunned.

"The cub period of the Knox race is very short. The adult standard of this race is different from that of other races. It is not divided by time, but by strength." Zarad looked around and was full of disbelief. my colleague, touched his chin and assumed the role of commentator.

Precisely because adulthood is divided by strength, the sooner the cub of the Knox race enters adulthood, the better the talent the cub has.

But the progress can be as fast as the silver-haired Knox in front of him, which is an unprecedented case in Zarad's knowledge.

But think about it, this Knox cub has been a cub for more than 30 years, and it has not broken its shell. The cub will also accumulate strength when it is still an egg. If you count the time of more than 30 years, it is understandable that this Knox can enter adulthood so quickly.

There are so many races in the interstellar space, and each race has its own characteristics, no matter how incredible it is. Xia Qi quickly accepted Zarad's explanation, but she has a problem now...

"A Luan." Xia Qi glanced at Knox, who had grown up beside the young man, and said in a hesitant tone, "If the cub has grown up..."

Although Xia Qi only spoke half of what he had said, Xie Luan could easily understand what the other party was trying to say, but it was obviously impossible to let the person next to him leave the branch, so Xie Luan said, "We still live here first, originally our branch There is still a shortage of manpower, and Yayi can be a staff member."

Especially if the other party has abilities, some tasks can be done very easily.

Xie Luan said that, of course, everyone had no objection, and the matter was settled.

It is already an adulthood of advanced humanoid form, the other party can't sleep in the bed of the cub in the house, and of course can no longer sleep with Xie Luan.

Considering the other party's residence, Xie Luan quickly packed up an empty room in the staff dormitory and took Yayi over to recognize it.

However, that night, as soon as Xie Luan entered the room, he saw a white plush creature that was already nestled beside his pillow, with a round body that looked a little round.

The Knox cub's ears moved slightly when the young man came in, and the light cyan vertical pupils stared at the young man, and the fluffy little tail behind him also tilted slightly at this moment.

Xie Luan stayed for two seconds and was speechless for a while. Really not understanding the situation, he walked over and picked up the Yuanhu cub nestled beside his pillow and looked at it.

"Huh." Arching into the young man's arms, the Knox cub let Xie Luan lift it up and look at it.

Compared with the adult form, the cub form can be more close to the youth. Although he didn't understand the reason, Yayi could clearly feel it, and he did the same.

The young man has a temperature that makes him want to get closer, this kind of temperature like a warm body can easily burn the cold darkness he once felt.

Yayi already had self-awareness from a young age. This is not a good thing, because he can clearly feel that the world does not welcome him.

The world inside the eggshell is only dark, but this kind of darkness is at least peaceful for Yai. There is light in the outside world, but I clearly want to contact the outside world, but there is no reason to be born.

Until he met the young human being in front of him, until he heard the voice of this person.

Xie Luan heard the low whimper of the cub in his arms, struggled for a while, and finally gave up thinking and put the cub gently back next to his pillow.

Once put back next to the pillow, the Knox cub rounded himself up again and nestled in that spot. The fluffy little tail behind him moved, and the tip of the tail was a little more obvious than before.

It doesn't matter if it's in cub form...

Xie Luan, who has never liked to tangle on a problem for too long, also quickly lay on the bed, and next to the pillow was a fluffy cub, which made Xie Luan gradually close his eyes without any psychological pressure. .

In the quiet darkness, the Knox cub, who silently stared at the young man's profile with light cyan vertical pupils, was still thinking about a question that it hadn't been able to figure out before.

The first words of adulthood are what you want to say—

Thinking about it, the Knox cub thought of what other employees in the branch called young people.

Xie Luan…

A Luan.
