Chapter 17: Seventeenth day as a childcare worker

Views:

After more than half a month, the northern hemisphere of Gaia star not only failed to escape from the cold winter, but also dropped a little more, and small snowflakes have fallen in some areas.

The location of the Yunbao branch is a little better. It won't snow here, but the temperature felt is beautiful and freezing enough for Xie Luan.

Originally, against the backdrop of other staff members in the branch who were only wearing thin clothes, Xie Luan seemed to be wearing thick clothes. As a result, the temperature dropped in the past few days, and Xie Luan had to put on more clothes for himself. Not to shiver in this weather.

When going to bed at night, Xie Luan would even unconsciously hug the plush next to his pillow into his arms after falling asleep, so that he would feel warmer.

"A Luan, you... is it really that cold?" The room was filled with a group of alien races who didn't feel the low temperature. Xia Qi glanced at the young human beings who had been wrapping themselves up in the past few days. I couldn't help but ask aloud.

As soon as this question came out, several people who were busy beside them couldn't help but glance at Xie Luan. They actually had the same question as Xia Qi in their hearts.

The distance between Gaia and the Earth Federation is very far. Although it is a trading planet, there are not many humans that can be seen on Gaia every day. Therefore, the people living on this planet have a very good understanding of the human race. flow on the surface.

It's like they know that after humans are separated from special weapons and equipment, the fighting ability of the body is generally weak, but they don't know how weak this weakness is.

How does it look like you might freeze to death if you don't dress a little thicker in winter...

As an alien race whose physical fitness far exceeds that of human beings, everyone in the room obviously cannot experience this cold. Only when it was just born out of the shell, as a newborn cub, needs to stay in the incubator.

Facing the eyes of everyone, Xie Luan could only nod his head, with a somewhat helpless expression on his face.

The thick clothes he is wearing now are all brought from the original world by him using the rules before. Alien races are not very afraid of cold, and there is no market without demand. shop.

It is known that adult alien races are basically not afraid of cold, but Xie Luan is still worried about the cubs, especially the mermaid cubs living in the courtyard pool are Xie Luan's primary concern.

"Is the water temperature too cold?" Xie Luan squatted down, reached out to test the temperature on the water, and suddenly couldn't help frowning slightly.

It was colder outside than indoors, and Xie Luan felt the coldness as soon as his fingers touched the surface of the pool.

The mermaid cub with short blond hair had already swam by the moment Xie Luan walked to the edge of the pool. Although his delicate little face was not very expressive, the icy blue fish tail swaying in the water undoubtedly revealed it. out of emotion.

"a..." The merman cub staring at the young man made a very low voice from his throat, and he couldn't hear it if he didn't pay attention. But it still tried its best to respond with a sound, and after squeezing the breath out of its throat, it shook its head at the young man.

Xie Luan had read on the "Cubs Encyclopedia" that the cubs of the mermaid race prefer a water temperature of 18°C. When he saw this article, Xie Luan turned his head and went to Xingwang to buy a small water temperature adjustment device.

The pool is not big, so it is enough to buy a small device temporarily, and the price is not too expensive to afford. Xie Luan didn't hesitate to spend the money.

But the courier didn't know what was delayed. He hadn't delivered anything to him today, and it just happened to be cooling in the past few days.

The water temperature that the mermaid cubs like is 18°C, but the colder water temperature will not have any practical effect on the mermaid cubs. After all, the mermaid race has extremely high cold tolerance.

Xie Luan reached out and touched the short blonde hair of the mermaid cub, and soon he heard a faint sound of anger.

The mermaid cub leaned against the edge of the pool, which was the closest position to Xie Luan.

There was no way to get any closer, the mermaid cub had no choice but to raise his head and reach out to touch Xie Luan's knee.

The merman cub's hands were soaked with water, Xie Luan didn't care about this, he was just thinking about the meaning of the mermaid cub's action.

"a...pa..." The mermaid cub pronounced the second syllable a little harder than the first, but it was hard to feel the difference, and Xie Luan couldn't notice it at this time.

After touching the youth's knee, the mermaid cub's hand had no intention of removing it, and it maintained the posture of looking up at the youth.

Finally found that the mermaid cub seemed to want to get close to him, Xie Luan thought for a while, but he still stretched out his hand and slowly picked it up from the pool without the mermaid cub showing any resistance. .

I wanted to be close to the young man, but because of the experience of being abandoned in the abandoned yard and almost dying of dehydration, the fear of being out of the water still made this mermaid cub instinctively shake its fish tail at the moment it was taken out of the pool. .

The little fish tail covered with ice blue scales of the merman cub slapped Xie Luan again. Xie Luan threw him all over the water by the fish tail, and only repeated raising his hand to comfort the merman cub over and over again. The cub's short blonde hair, comforted: "Baby is not afraid."

Xie Luan and Xia Qi could not agree with parents who would throw away their cubs because of their physical defects. Now that this cub has been brought into this world, it is time to take responsibility.

"This is your home, no one can hurt you." Xie Luan said, looking down at the small pool next to him, and when conditions permit, he will improve the living environment for this mermaid cub.

The force of slapping the fish tail on the young man gradually decreased. Although he was out of the water, the sense of security he felt from the young man's warm voice gradually made the mermaid cub less afraid. subsided.

The small fish tail covered with ice blue scales finally stopped shaking, only the tail fin moved slightly, and the soothed mermaid cub leaned on Xie Luan, and made the air sound that he wanted to make forcefully before again: " pa…”

pa

Feeling that the syllable uttered by the mermaid cub in his arms should have some meaning, Xie Luan thought for a while, but he still couldn't figure out the answer.

Unable to think of the answer, Xie Luan could only touch the hair of the mermaid cub in his arms, soften his voice, and use an all-purpose comforting sentence: "Baby be good."

Shaking its tail fins because of the young man's warm voice, the mermaid cub lowered its head and rubbed Xie Luan's arms, trying harder to pronounce the syllable: "pa—"

But unfortunately, it can only be a low voice to make the syllable a little clearer, which is already the limit of what this mermaid cub can currently do.

After confirming that the mermaid cub could indeed accept the current water temperature in the pool, Xie Luan gave up the idea of bringing the mermaid cub back indoors temporarily.

There is really no spacious environment for the mermaid cub to move around in the house. If he wants to go back to the small wooden barrel, the environment is too cramped. Xie Luan still wants this cub to live in a spacious environment as much as possible.

Putting the mermaid cubs back into the pool, Xie Luan went back and changed a coat before walking into the house where the cubs lived.

As soon as he walked into the house, Xie Luan had a rabbit and a cat in his arms. There were two round cubs with small horns on their heads. They were white and fluffy, and it was not very comfortable to hold them for warmth.

Xie Luan arranged for Yayi to tidy up the courtyard from time to time, and it took minutes to solve it with supernatural powers, but when Zarad knew about it, his expression was a bit complicated.

The power shown by the silver-haired Knox is very powerful, and such a powerful power is actually used in tidying up the courtyard...

And when there is nothing else, the adult Knox will change himself back to the cub form, and then the Knox cub will run to Xie Luan as a hand warmer.

There was a group of fluffy cubs in the room. Each of these cubs moved freely and was completely unafraid of the cold. Xie Luan could not help but feel a little envious when he let go of his heart.

His hands were cold, which made Xie Luan unconsciously touch and touch the back of the white fluffy Knox cub in his arms.

"Huuu." Wanting to warm up the young man's hands, the Knox cub moved and pressed the young man's hand under its fluffy soft belly.

The fluffy cub's body is warm, and Xie Luan is not willing to pull out his right hand so much.

Several other nurses in the room were starting to prepare food for the cub. Xie Luan shifted his gaze a little to the left, and he saw that the Kuti cub was practicing flapping wings accompanied by the other two Jiu.

In addition to the previous half month, this Kuti cub has been working hard to learn to fly for a month. From the beginning, he couldn't fly at all, and then he could fly on the ground at the back, and now he can fly to a certain height.

But this Kuti cub still can't fly far. It doesn't take long every time it takes off, and it will land involuntarily after flying about two meters away.

Each time it was fixed at about two meters, and it couldn't exceed two meters, which made Xie Luan find a problem.

Before flying two meters away, the Kuti cub was in a standard flying position and flew well. But when it flew over a distance of two meters, the cub seemed to flinch a little and landed on its own.

Xie Luan rubbed the Knox cub in his arms and put the white fluffy down temporarily. He approached the Kuti cub who was practicing flapping wings, and tweeted the chubby, light red chubby hugged.

Xie Luan put the Kuti cub on the top of the locker that he had cleaned up before, and then asked warmly, "Do you remember the last practice?"

"Tweet." Cub Kuti moved his little wings behind him, looked at the young man nearby with his black eyes, and made a crisp chirp.

It can definitely fly over now.

Thinking that the young man was going to repeat the exact same exercise as last time, the Kuti cub stood on the edge of the top of the locker, waiting for the young man to take two steps away and open his hands to it.

Xie Luan really stepped back and walked far, but the one who walked far was not just two steps, but five meters away.

"Come on, baby fly over here." Standing more than five meters away, Xie Luan opened his hand to Cub Kuti who was standing on the locker.

The Kuti cub, who was still full of confidence, saw this distance, and suddenly lost confidence, but seeing the encouraging glances from the young man in the distance, the Kuti cub did not flinch in the end.

Wanting to be able to fly into the arms of the youth by himself, instead of asking the youth to squat down and hold it, this was an idea this Kuti cub had when learning to fly.

"Chirp."

Taking courage, the Kuti cub fluttered its wings in the direction of Xie Luan.
