Since childhood, Joseph had nothing to do with Luke.
No matter how smart a child is, he will be very depressed when he meets a sullen man who lived to be thirty in his previous life.
Speaking of shame, Luke was several times thicker than Claire and Joseph combined, and he couldn't fight at all.
Joseph could only clarify his words: "You can just go on a business trip. After a few days, Mindy will also go on a trip. I was entrusted by her to Nikki and Monica to take me home in turn. Do you know that?"
Hehe, Luke raised his hand and rubbed Joseph's head: "Ouch~ Isn't this cheap for you? Long-legged big sister, online pick-up and drop-off, I don't know how many people can't wait for it."
Suddenly, he suddenly realized: "So, you are not complaining about my business trip, but dissatisfied that Mindy also went on a trip?"
Joseph opened his mouth, speechless.
He was really upset because of this, but it wasn't just Minty, it was her going to the Neon Tour with that friend she met recently.
Joseph is only nine years old, and he needs to be accompanied by his parents when he goes abroad. What can he do
He didn't think that Catherine would ask him to ask for leave out of nowhere and accompany him to travel abroad.
Although Minty came back and talked about the neon tour, which didn't sound very interesting, but Joseph was still a little depressed.
What he didn't know was that the second-level avatar had been in New York all along, and would come to Xiaowo's basement every night to work and take care of him, but he had never appeared in front of Joseph.
Luke stopped teasing Joseph, opened his backpack, and handed over two boxes: "A gift for you."
Joseph looked at the color suspiciously: "It matches again?"
Luke winked at him: "Look for yourself, I didn't pack it on purpose."
Joseph opened the black box, and inside was a large translucent packaging box with a clear neon logo and a ferocious black bear head on the border.
He picked up the tablet casually, pointed at the box and took a photo, and then clicked to extract the text and translation: "Xeon Hero Black Bear is here, the first 100 sets are limited? The shape is 95% high simulation armor?"
He opened the pink box below again: "Xeon Hero Fan Xiong is here, the first 100 sets are limited, um... princess dress?"
Joseph's eyes widened: "You want me to give the princess dress to Minty?"
Luke: "Can't you? She's a girl. Besides, this limited edition only sells skirts, no armor."
Besides, it doesn't look as good as the armor I made. Someone muttered in his heart.
Joseph hesitated for a moment, but still accepted the gift.
At least some thought was put into this thing—Minty does prefer pink.
After accepting the gift, the little brother was embarrassed to keep a straight face, and the two brothers could finally talk peacefully.
…
After Luke and the two came back, they didn't make any big moves.
After a fulfilling vacation, Selena resumed dealing with the squeezed pdd affairs, and Luke began to study parasites and symbiote riots.
Compared with before, Luke still has a little manpower under his command.
The three doctors, Stern, Claudia, and Ophelia in No. 2 space, are all very interested in alien species.
They all have their own main projects, but Luke has a lot of parasites in his hand, and each of them sends two to study, which can be regarded as a taste of research.
Continue to collect after consumption, it is not a rare species anyway.
The symbiote riot got the unanimous attention of the three doctors, but Luke loved this guy very much and didn't dare to let them directly toss it.
In case of death, Luke really has no place to find a second one now.
The research on parasites soon came to a rough result, and the three doctors all came to the conclusion that the short-term value is limited and it is not worth further research.
After all, this thing only parasitizes a certain part of the human body, and the rest of the body is still weak.
Multi-body parasitism can indeed strengthen more parts, but the consciousness of multiple parasitic beasts will confront and interfere with each other.
If it is not done well, it will be like the multi-headed monsters in fairy tales, robbing each other of body control.
On the other hand, the green and fat people still basically maintain their human appearance.
Blonsky, the half-Hulk, is already very unpopular, even though he still has a human form.
Parasitic beasts not only rely on cannibalism for a living, but their appearance is completely anti-human, and yet they are also parasitic, which can easily produce the uncanny valley effect.
For the time being, the parasite can only be used as an interesting research material, and no benefit can be expected from it.
Dr. Stern was very interested in Izumi Shinichi's outlier.
It's a pity that Quan Xin's family is a neutral yellow name. It's impossible for Luke to catch him for experiments. He can only let the pdd agency over at Neon find an opportunity to fool him and take part in some tests.
The main force in the study of parasitic beasts is actually Yoshiko Tamiya, a highly intelligent parasitic beast.
Luke offered her a condition to research food that could replace humans and let her go.
If this goal is accomplished, Luke can also provide her with shelter and live in human society openly.
But she has to become the new king of parasitic beasts, try to control the remaining parasitic beasts, and stop eating people.
By then, she and her staff could work for Phil.
The combat power of parasitic beasts far exceeds that of normal people, so this is the only way to treat them.
They have lived in human society for a long time, and it is not difficult to cover up cannibalism seamlessly. It is also very possible for anyone who is greedy to secretly kill someone to eat.
Of course they cannot be allowed to hide freely in human society.
Tamiya Yoshiko had no objection, and even started research on her own initiative the day after she was arrested.
Luke also needed time to experiment with the effects of various abilities and methods on her.
Pheromones manipulation, mental hypnosis + hallucinations are only less effective on parasitic beasts, but not completely ineffective.
He can experiment and adjust, maybe he can find a targeted control method to ensure that Tamiya Yoshiko will not go wrong.
…
Luke is obsessed with scientific research and cannot extricate himself.
But there was a lot of excitement on Minty's side.
A few days ago, she found a boss who sells everything, and opened a team channel called Little Ursa.
The rules of this channel are directly copied from the Bat Squad, and Luke even added a youth mode-questioning and revealing personal information will be directly harmonized.
One of the members is her, code-named Ms. m.
Joseph was among them, codenamed Destiny.
Then there are blueberries (Leo), red bean ice (Raphael), Sunkist (Mickey), and purple grapes (Doni) from the little turtles.
Next are Black Pearl (Monica), White Diamond (Nicky), Ms. J (Carrie), and Mr. T (Tyrone).
Finally, there is a Ms. P, who is... Claire.
As for whether this p means pink, or Peggy, or even two in one, only Claire knows.
In addition, the channel administrators or group owners are Luke and Selena, and the two share this account to ensure that these guys will not mess around.
Among this group of young people, the most common one is Joseph, and there is nothing special except that his IQ is over 140.
But if you really want to do something, the lineup of ten superpowers is luxurious enough, but they lack experience and organization.
But if Minty goes on like this, Luke may not have to worry about the second echelon. Isn't the Cubs team a ready-made "youth team"!
