Huo Lin was very skilled at holding the cub. He had held the cub countless times in virtual scenarios and he even knew how the cub liked to be held.
The difference from the virtual scene is that the cub he is holding now is a real, soft little cub.
"Ning cub?"
Huo Lin called out again. After he finished calling out, he raised his head and looked at Mans who had given him the cub: "Mans, why can't I wake him up?"
"I brought him here just to have your doctor take a look at him."
As Mans spoke, his eyes fell on the little prince's face in front of him, which was barely able to conceal his nervousness, as well as the way he was holding the baby, and his expression seemed somewhat thoughtful.
It seems that the rumors about the young prince's aversion to making friends do not match the actual situation.
Huo Lin held the cub steadily and turned around to tell someone to call a doctor.
Just as he asked someone to call a doctor,
Zhan Xi watched his baby being passed around by them and being held by this unpleasant little prince. The anger in his eyes almost burned into substance.
"What is your relationship with my cub?"
Zhan Xi did not ignore the other party's blurt out "Ningzai" when he saw Zaizai. It was obvious that this little prince knew his own Zaizai.
Huo Lin raised his head and looked at Zhan Xi, who had a grim expression on his face.
This person is a star pirate.
He lowered his head to look at Ningzi's little face, then looked at Zhanxi's handsome face. After a long while, he said with certainty: "Ningzi is not your child. You abducted Ningzi."
Huo Lin looked at Ning Zai carefully and found that he didn't look much like this space pirate!
Seeing that his baby was not coming back, Zhan Xi became anxious: "He is my baby. He has a birthmark of a small flower on the back of his butt. He loves to drink milk the most and drinks it five times a day. He only likes sweet food and hates carrots, but he doesn't hate noodles made from carrot juice."
"He has a very good personality, but he is a little clingy. When I am working during the day, he plays on his learning machine by himself. At night, he will wait for me to sleep with him. If he doesn't see me at night, he will cry all night."
"He is sick and can't wake up. I brought him out here to treat him."
As Zhan Xi spoke one word at a time, Huo Lin began to panic a little.
He was unwilling to accept the fact that these people were Ningzai's parents.
Not because these people are space pirates, but because of another cruel reason -
When the pirates were fighting with the guards just now, he held the saber given to him by his father and fought from beginning to end! He was the one who scratched several pirates.
Including the chin of the man in front of him, which was scratched by him.
The usually calm little prince was facing this kind of Shura-like situation for the first time, and he had no experience in dealing with it.
Just when he had a stiff face and didn't know what to do next, Mans at the side finally spoke lightly: "Your group of star pirates are notoriously cunning, so I can choose not to believe what you say."
"Take them all down."
Mance immediately called his men back. After taking a quick look at the number of pirates present, he realized that the number was wrong and a few people were missing.
The face he wanted to see was not among the captured pirates.
Zhan Xi used his only remaining arm to try to resist again, but as expected, his resistance was suppressed again.
"It's useless for doctors to treat Ningzai's illness. I know how to cure him!"
Zhan Xi knew that he couldn't stay, so he simply wanted to provide his Ningzi with a treatment method. Although he didn't like this little prince, he could see that this little prince seemed to care about his Ningzi.
But before he could finish his words, the chief guard took him away.
Mance retracted his gaze and said casually, "He is the best doctor in the empire. His medical skills are not inferior to those of a pirate."
Huo Lin heard this and thought about it.
Then, he also felt that the doctor who accompanied him would be better than the pirate just now.
However, looking at the pirates being taken away, Huo Lin still felt uneasy. He turned away from meeting Mans' gaze and whispered to the guard standing behind him: "Go and check on the injured people and ask the doctor to treat them."
"Also, just lock them up... in an empty room."
Generally, star pirates are imprisoned in simple but safe places. There is a prison on the Raw Stone Star. Although the prison has been empty for a long time, it can also be used as a temporary detention point for these star pirates.
Before the little cubs in his arms appeared, Huo Lin had already planned to lock them up in prison.
But now, there is a slight change of plan.
Huo Lin couldn't fully confirm their identities yet. Before his identities were confirmed, his instinctive desire to survive told him that it would be better not to be so cruel to these people.
After he finished the arrangements, he calmly said to Admiral Mance who was still looking at him: "Admiral Mance, I read a sentence in a book that law enforcement must be warm. Although they are all pirates, they also have the right to treatment."
Admiral Mance chuckled with an ambiguous tone.
He did not expose the young prince's clumsy lie, but followed his words and echoed: "Well, your point of view is very novel, I will learn from you."
The emperor of the empire was arrogant and tyrannical, and his rule was full of power and bloodshed.
Even supporters of the imperial family had to admit that the rulers of the imperial family throughout the ages were all outright tyrants.
And the only heir to the imperial tyrant now proposes merciful law enforcement.
This struck Mance as both novel and amusing.
soon.
The doctor rushed over, and Huo Lin asked Mans to stay at the scene to clean up the traces, while he carried Jane Ning back to the bedroom.
The bedroom was tidy and clean, and the bed was neatly made.
Huo Lin handed Jian Ning to a doctor, then he took out a thick quilt from the closet and spread it on his bed.
The bed was made very soft.
Huo Lin raised his head and said, "Okay, you can put him on the bed and check him. He has been sleeping all the time."
The doctor gently put the cub down.
He first did a simple examination, but this simple examination did not reveal any problems, so he had no choice but to make a request: "Your Highness, I want to take him back to the medical room and use more sophisticated equipment to examine him."
Huo Lin nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you."
I don't know how long it took to check.
The doctor's brows were furrowed, and his face was shrouded in worry. He whispered, "It's strange. This is already the most advanced equipment, but it still can't find any problems."
The cub's vital signs are very stable, and he will respond when you move his little body.
But strangely, the cub just couldn't wake up.
Huo Lin's accompanying doctor was already the best doctor in the empire, but the entire medical team took turns to treat Ning Zai, but they were all helpless against Ning Zai's condition.
At this moment, it is already late at night.
Huo Lin looked at the cub lying on the bed receiving nutrient solution, and he was irritable to the point of being angry. He was born with S-level mental power. In addition to making him stronger than cubs of the same age, his excessive mental power also brought him a lot of negative effects.
The most obvious one is his personality problem.
He easily loses control and becomes angry.
Huo Lin sat beside the hospital bed, looking down at the little cub sleeping quietly. The real appearance of the little cub was even more beautiful and lovely than in the virtual scene.
He held the little boy's hand and looked at the back of his two chubby hands, which were pierced by needles.
This is the pinhole left by the infusion of nutrient solution.
Huo Lin felt that he couldn't watch any longer. If he continued, he would lose control of his emotions.
Jian Ning, who was in a coma, seemed to be able to sense the hand touching him. His hand moved and grasped the other person's fingers tightly.
Huo Lin saw his reaction, but knew clearly that these reactions did not mean that he would wake up immediately.
"Auburn."
Huo Lin called the chief guard and ordered him, "Go and bring the pirate who was just locked up. He is the one with the worst temper."
After he finished speaking, Auburn didn't even ask which pirate it was, and turned around to lead his men.
Not long.
Zhan Xi was brought in. After he entered the room, the chief guard looked around the room. This was not a medical room, but Huo Lin's bedroom.
The bedroom windows were not sealed, so the safety factor was not high.
While the guard chief was still observing, Huo Lin had already spoken. He looked directly into Zhan Xi's eyes and asked, "What's your name? What's your relationship with Ning Zai?"
"Zhan Xi, Ningzi's father."
Zhan Xi's face was filled with suppressed emotions. After he answered, he also asked the little prince: "How did you know my Ningzi?"
Huo Lin's face was tense, and he replied politely, "Learning machine."
Zhan Xi: “???”
Zhan Xi looked at him in shock: "Isn't that learning machine just a publicity stunt? Did you really go in?!"
Huo Lin: “…”
Huo Lin thought silently in his heart that he rarely went in. Ever since he met a clingy little kid, he went in every day to take care of the kid as if it were work.
"You said you are Ningzi's father, what evidence do you have?"
"Would you like to watch the video stored on the Star Board?"
"look."
Zhan Xi had fixed his dislocated arm by himself, but it still felt a little unnatural to use. He took out the star board with his other hand.
When the star board is opened, the photo albums and videos inside look densely packed.
Huo Lin came over to check. There was no expression on his little face, but in fact, his palms were already covered with sweat.
Zhan Xi opened a video seemingly casually but actually deliberately. He opened the video that he thought was the cutest one of Ning Zai.
In the video.
Zhan Xi was sitting on the bed, pretending to fall over suddenly. He covered his chest and said to the little kid holding the bottle with a painful expression, "Ningzi. Daddy fell down. Ah, it hurts!"
The little kid couldn't tell that his dad was acting, so scared that he dropped his bottle and crawled towards his dad.
"Bang! Get up, get up!"
The little guy hugged Zhan Xi's arms with his two chubby hands, and almost used all his strength to pull his father up.
In order to amuse his baby, Zhan Xi pretended not to get up.
Until the baby's chubby face turned red from exhaustion and he still couldn't pull up his father, he tilted his chubby face back and burst into tears with a "wow".
Zhan Xi, who was playing too hard, heard the crying and immediately sat up and started to coax the baby.
In addition to videos of playing with babies, there are also videos of babies confessing their love to their dad in a baby voice. There are all kinds of videos, too many to count.
Huo Lin watched these videos and had to admit that the man in front of him was the space pirate who was beaten and captured by him, and he was really Ning Zai's father.
Huo Lin confirmed Zhan Xi's identity, and Zhan Xi also saw how much the little prince valued his own child.
"Little prince." Zhan Xi didn't rush over to hug his own child. He looked at Huo Lin with scrutiny and asked, "If you can wake Ning up, but the premise is that you have to do something for him, are you willing?"
Under Zhan Xi's gaze, Huo Lin nodded without any hesitation.
He nodded and then asked, "What do you want me to do?"
Zhan Xi glanced at the chief guard behind him: "Let your guard leave."
When Auburn heard this request, his face darkened: "Your Highness, it will be dangerous for you to stay with him. He may treat you badly-"
"I know."
Huo Lin interrupted him and said stubbornly: "You go out first. If I am really in danger, I will call you."
Auburn could not disobey the order and could only walk out in silence.
As soon as Auben left, Zhan Xi got straight to the point and said, "I came here to find you this time with the purpose of kidnapping you and using you to exchange something from your father. Only by getting this thing can Ningzai have a chance to wake up."
When Huo Lin heard this, his tense heartstrings suddenly relaxed a little.
Very good.
Ningzai can wake up.
Knowing that Ningzai had a way to wake up, Huo Lin asked, "What do you need from my father? I will go back tonight and get it for you."
Zhan Xi was a little surprised by his frankness.
But the opportunity was rare, and he couldn't miss it. He seized the moment and said what he needed: "The collection from your father's private vault, the Phoenix Feather Stone."
As soon as the three words "Feng Ling Shi" came out, Huo Lin's face froze.
He knew where it was, in the coffin where his father and his mother were buried together. Although his father refused to accept his mother's death, he still built a coffin for her to be buried together.
My father said that he would be buried there when he died.
The place where his father and mother were buried together was a forbidden place that no one knew about. Of course, this did not include him, as he would have to personally arrange the burial in the future, so he naturally had to know the location.
After a long silence, Huo Lin asked as if to confirm: "Is it necessary to use the Phoenix Feather Stone?"
Zhan Xi said "hmm".
Huo Lin: “…”
Fine.
He's going to dig the grave now.
