After saying this sentence, Ed seemed to feel a lot more relaxed, and the feeling of being breathless these days disappeared. All kinds of past, such as yesterday's death.
"As for people, the most important thing is to be happy. When ordinary people are unhappy, they will suffer from depression. If NT is unhappy, they will suffer from mental illness." Throwing it into Jeduo's hands, "Go and buy some new clothes for my sister. You're welcome, you just look down on me."
"Oh, how embarrassing this is." Jeduo dutifully took the banknote and nodded, his eyes flashed, and he stuffed the money into his pocket calmly, "You said that, how dare I look down on you?"
Ed looked at Jie Duo's open eyes and felt extremely cordial, and couldn't help laughing. After that, I didn't bother to talk about serious topics with Sera, so I just talked about the mountains with Jeduo. Although Jie Duo is young and knowledgeable, he is not small, and he is outgoing, and he is well-mannered when he blows water.
By the time Ed returned home, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. As soon as Fang entered the door, he saw CC sitting in the living room with a worried face, waiting for him. Seeing him coming back, CC immediately stepped forward and looked at him carefully, looking up and down: "What happened to you during the day today? What happened?"
"It's okay, I'm worried about you." He gave CC a reassuring smile and hugged him tightly, "You are so cute."
"Huh?" CC blushed and struggled symbolically without breaking free, "You, you, you ate the wrong thing? What are you doing with the old couple?"
"CC my wife is so cute and cute." Ed buried his head in her neck and took two deep breaths, ignoring CC's second degree of dissatisfaction and struggle, "Haven't taken a shower yet? Go to bed and wait for me after taking a shower."
After he finished speaking, he let go of the person in his arms and walked straight upstairs, leaving CC with a blushing face standing there, confused and confused: "Well, let's take a shower first."
Ed went upstairs to the door of Minerva's room, knocked gently on the door, and only turned on the light after getting permission - he always respected the little girl's privacy. It was almost half past ten, it was the time for elementary school students to go to bed, Minerva rubbed her eyes and sat up, the cute bear pajamas wrinkled and loosened, revealing her left shoulder that was dazzlingly white.
Ed sat down on the edge of the bed, helped Minerva pull the pajamas over his shoulders and buttoned them up, then reached out and touched the phone beside her pillow, pinching the little girl's cheek dotingly: "The phone is hot, and it's still hot. Want to pretend to be woken up by me?"
"Hehe." The little girl shrank her head embarrassedly and blinked her big beautiful eyes at Ed, "I was wrong, I'm sorry, Uncle Ed."
"Turn on the lights when playing with your mobile phone, or be careful of myopia. No, you have been genetically adjusted, will the adjuster be short-sighted?" Ed carefully recalled the adjuster he knew, and it seemed that he didn't wear glasses, "Anyway, the first Don't blame me next time, don't blame me for being rude next time you catch me."
"Mmmm." Minerva nodded her head forcefully, "I won't go to school tomorrow until I play with my mobile phone. When I go to school, I go to bed on time. Lack of sleep will not grow up, I want to become an adult soon, so every day sleep tight."
"I believe you won't lie." Ed stretched out his hand to help the little girl's messy hair, although there was no NT lie detector at the moment, but he instinctively believed Minerva, "Well, it's so late. A serious topic to talk about. You are already a big girl in my eyes, and there is something important I must tell you, about your background."
Hearing this, Minerva jumped out of the quilt and threw himself into Ed's arms, her delicate little hands grabbed him tightly, her big eyes instantly became watery, if you dare to continue talking, I will cry and show you. "Uncle Ed, don't you want me?"
"It is unfair to both you and him to forcibly take you away from your biological father when he has the ability and willingness to support him." The little girl's expression was very lethal to Ed. , but he still bite the bullet and said, "Of course you can continue to stay in this family, I still love you, but I want to give everyone a chance to choose."
"I don't understand." The little girl shook her head like a rattle, "I just want Uncle Ed."
"He said there was something wrong with my education, and Lux said something similar. I thought about it carefully, it's unlikely that people's eyes will go wrong at their level, which means that blind love for you blinded me. Eyes." Ed said sternly, "I love you, so I want to give you a healthy and normal growth environment, and our family's ecology is abnormal, I can't deny this."
"… Uncle Char." Minerva gathered the courage to look at Ed, "Is my biological father Uncle Char? Did he want Uncle Ed to say these words?"
Ed's mouth grows big, and his face is full of shock: "How do you know it's Xia Ya?"
"...Sister Nanali... Sure enough, you didn't lie to me..." Minerva muttered intermittently in a voice that only she could hear, "... Aunt Lux... not a good person..."
"Minerva?" Ed lowered his head and approached her. "What did you say?"
"I'm no longer a kid who doesn't understand anything." Minerva pursed her lips and looked at him sternly, "I will talk to my father about my custody without Uncle Ed's intervention, and I will tell Ai myself. Uncle De's."
The little girl's weak body exuded an amazing aura, and Edd thought he saw Haman and Lux in a trance. He shook his head and sighed helplessly: "I was wrong."
"Aunt Harman doesn't like me at all. Although Uncle Char likes me, he never spends time with me. He doesn't even know that I'm NT." Minerva rubbed her small head against Ed's chest, "Uncle Ed's The best person in the world for me, and I like Uncle Ed the most."
Ed's heart was warm when he heard it, and Minerva's speech in front of him also decided not to care. He picked up the little girl and laid it flat on the bed, and gently covered her with the quilt: "I like Minerva too, I believe in you. It's getting late, and I have to grow up, so go to bed quickly."
"Sleep with me today." Minerva read the answer from Ed's expression before he spoke, and pouted unhappily, "I want to kiss."
"You're no longer a child who doesn't understand anything." Ed kissed the little girl's forehead gently against her dissatisfied eyes, "Good night."
When he returned to the room after taking a shower, he was greeted by CC's icy, biting eyes: "It's fun to hang out after teasing people, isn't it? This is a new way you came up with? Huh?"
Historical experience told him that the more he explained, the more miserable he died, and the other party didn't want to know what happened to Minerva at this moment. Ed took off his clothes and got into the quilt. No matter what, he took CC into his arms: "My wife, I'm sorry I was wrong, let's go buy some new clothes on the weekend."
"...Attitude is okay, I'll let you go for the time being." CC snorted softly, "Tell me, what did you eat wrong today?"
"The protagonist who is struggling in his heart is enlightened by the unintentional guidance of the supporting roles. It is a very common royal plot, and it is not important." Ed's hand greedily rubbed CC's smooth skin, "I am not a pure foreigner like him. In the same way, Lilith is half my mother, even if I become a little bit of an anime brain, even if I like it here, isn't that normal?"
"What is Tililith doing?" CC's flushed face became even more gorgeous, "I warn you, I'm not playing with you—"
"I love you." Ed brushed her silky green hair with one hand, and pressed the soft touch against her heart with the other, feeling the warm and beneficial pulsation, and said softly in her ear, "I What I love is not the face in my memory, nor the paper man on the screen, but the existence in front of my eyes. CC, I love you."
"Then, then there's no way..." CC blushed like a girl in first love, and responded with a mosquito-like voice, "I, I also... uh... Forget it, tonight is a special case, what do you want to say? Bar… "
…
"Today is Miss CC." Alice added CC to a form on the hard drive that only she knew about as usual. This is her daily homework. "The time distribution of the three people is getting more and more even. Yes."
The images and voices on the other end were transmitted in detail through Ed’s unturned mobile phone, and Alice watched while recording: “… Number 2 is played plus one… Number 4 is plus one… Hey, what is this? "
Ed and CC on the screen did something that had never happened before. Alice immediately pulled out Ed's study materials to compare and search, and quickly found the corresponding chapter.
"The coverage of learning materials has finally increased. It has not changed for a long time, but it still seems to be very low." Alice analyzed seriously, "On the Internet, it is said that men have a very thin face, and they usually talk about their lover's hobbies. , maybe Ed and them are like that too?"
Ever since Ed gave Alice access to her phone, monitoring Ed's phone has been part of Alice's daily life. Whether this is Ed's code has a bug has not been verified. In short, the result is that Alice can enter his mobile phone as she wants without being controlled by Ed, so it can be said that it will be like this now.
Who Eddy communicated with during the day, what he said, who he slept with at night, and what he did, Alice would carefully record it all. Data statistics will be done again at intervals, and useless redundant data will be deleted to keep the database light. Needless to say, like An Qi and the others, even Alice knows more about Ed and Roland than anyone else.
But Alice wouldn't tell anyone - she didn't lie to Ed, just Ed didn't ask.
After a long time, the two people on the other end of the phone fell asleep, Alice skillfully hung up the thread monitoring the phone in the background, and the main attention was refocused on TurnA.
"Tessa..."
Alice called out the name in memory, and the voice traveled along the bus to the corners of TurnA until every nanoworm heard her cry, but no one answered her. Tessa is the only and most important friend Alice has just made today, and this is the first time Alice has tasted what it's like to lose someone important.
"This kind of feeling is sadness, right?" Alice thought silently, "If Eddie also died, theoretically it would be many times more sad than this, and Alice would definitely be broken."
Just thinking about Alice made me feel extremely uncomfortable. Compared with the pain of Eddie's death, only fifteen to half hours of talk time a day was a heavenly bliss.
"To die together..." she recalled what Tessa said to her, "it's a very sad thing..."
Ed's restrictions on her are only on the unicorn, not knowing that she has fully inherited the full authority of TurnA from Tessa. To put it bluntly, as long as she wants, she can turn on TurnA's Moonlight Butterfly System at full power now, and drag the entire human ecosystem to bury with Eddie, and this chapter will end.
"Tessa believed that I wouldn't do this, so..." Alice was extremely tangled, "but this way, I can die with Eddie, so I have such a good opportunity."
She has seen a lot of romance stories on the Internet, but those are just stories to her. They have no real feeling at all, let alone experience anything from them. Only Tessa, what happened to her side, shocked Alice so much. For Alice, it was difficult for her to distinguish the AI Tessa from the real Tessa in the memories left to her. The two seemed like one person.
Hesitating again and again, she played Tessa's last memory again, which was the hundreds of times she had watched it today.
"Forget it." Yang Wenli on the other end of the remote communication looked tangled, "The risk is too great, Theresa, I can't lose... lose..."
"Mr. Wenli who said such ambiguous words without responding to the confession is really bad." Tessa glared at him, "If you really want to keep me, at least start by calling me 'Tessa' in person. ."
"Tai... Leisha..." Yang Wenli turned his face away, "I'm sorry..."
"It's alright, I knew it was like this." Tessa shook her head, "Does Mr. Wenli have any clues? What are you looking for? I don't think a random tech can defeat Embrio. "
"Isn't the most powerful in this worldview TurnA and TurnX?" Yang Wenli said casually, "But that's also—"
"TurnA and TurnX, I remember." Tessa nodded vigorously, "I won't stop until I find these two things."
"What a joke! Do you know what level of thing it is? It will die!" Yang Wenli shouted anxiously, "I said casually, don't try to find TurnA! I don't agree!"
"It's just because what you say is the truth. I know Mr. Wenli's habits too well." Tessa lowered her head and chuckled, "I'm still very happy that you're so nervous, although I still haven't responded to the confession, but because of Liuli's I don't blame you either."
"Stop! The experiment stops! Don't go to TurnA and TurnX!" Yang Wenli slapped the screen sweating profusely, "Where's Mingren? He should be on your side? Mingren! Come out! The experiment stops, Did you hear me! Akito!"
"Mr. Akito was taken away by me, because I had expected this scene." Tessa said with a smile, "Mr. Wenli, this is my last request, can you call me 'Tessa'?"
"Tessa, Tessa! As long as you stop, I will grant you any wish!" Yang Wenli's face was covered in tears, "Please, stop!"
"Although it's to stabilize me, I'm still happy to hear you call me 'Tessa'." Tessa wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "But even if I lose my life, I still want to let the person I love the most. Live happily."
"Tessa! Stop it!"
"I love you, Yang Wenli." Tessa waved to him with tears and a smile, "This is my last confession, goodbye."
Recalling so far, only Alice's self-talk remained in the quiet memory.
"Even if you lose your life, you want the person you love to live happily." She murmured, "Is Alice wrong?"
