At the same time, on the Red Sea in Africa, in the forest of stone pillars, in the public lounge of the Dawn sand ship.
"Kate hasn't come back yet?" Obert, the tiger man boy, asked curiously while wagging his tail to tease the cat. It seemed that he had no playmates to accompany him and he was starting to feel bored.
"Indeed, after being taken away for a physical examination for so long, it's time to come back. What are the people in Great Britain doing?" said Lawrence, who was responsible for taking care of the children. He began to feel worried, and he couldn't think of any way to attract the little tiger's attention.
, it will be troublesome for this child to make trouble when he is really bored.
"Speaking of which, what kind of thing is that over there?" Obert glanced at the big white bear sitting in the distance drinking coffee. There seemed to be something wrong with saying that it was a white bear man. He always felt that the shape was different. He said that it was a white bear.
A real bear, but would a bear sit there and drink coffee so leisurely?
"Hmm..." Lawrence observed with a long face for a long time, then a drop of sweat broke out on his forehead: "I don't know. Don't get close, and leave him alone."
"Hahahahaha." Obert smiled mysteriously, as if he was thinking of something secret.
"Don't do anything." Bedivere had just finished his meal, with an almost imperceptible sheen on his lips. He saw Obert, a naughty guy, grinning evilly from a distance, and knew what the kid was planning.
, just speak up and stop the other party before they do something.
"Tch." The little tiger stuck out his tongue.
"Hey, did you become like this to scare the children?" Bediwell left Obert and walked over to talk to the big white bear: "Change back quickly. What's wrong with you?
Want to become a white bear?"
"This look is more in line with my body shape." Dr. Virgil replied calmly while drinking coffee.
That's right, the big white bear in front of you is actually disguised by Dr. Virgil using the technology of mimicry. Dr. Virgil's original appearance is that of a troll, which is uglier and scarier. If he appeared in the lounge with that appearance,
It will probably scare Obert away.
"And considering that most of the people in your ship are orcs, I thought this form would be more suitable for integrating into your small circle?" the doctor added.
"That's right." Bedivere hummed. Not only is he similar in size to a troll, but he can also pretend to be an orc and integrate into the sand ship Dawn. Apart from the mimicry of the white bear man, he has almost nothing else.
Chosen.
"That's the truth, but what you don't know is that most of the white bears in the world have been extinct, and the few remaining white bears are almost all under protection. In Great Britain, they are also a group of people who have been brain-damaged and cannot take care of themselves.
The only disabled person who can move around normally is on my ship, and he is a sentimental little fool. You will irritate that guy if you appear like this."
"Is that so?" Virgil shrugged, "Sorry, I have been immersed in research these years and rarely care about current affairs."
"Anyway, you can change anything, just don't turn into a white bear. There is no worse disguise than a white bear, and people with knowledge will see through it at a glance."
"Well, let me think about it." The leisurely look on Dr. Virgil's face has disappeared. The question of what to look like in the mimicry costume will probably give him a headache for a long time.
"Mr. Bedivere." At this time, the communicator in the werewolf youth's ear also sounded a voice. Judging from the voice, it seemed to be the Knight of the Round Table of Great Britain, Constantine.
"What's wrong?"
"Kate's child's regular physical examination has been completed. Now we are ordering someone to send him back. Please be prepared to take care of him."
"Oh, it's finally better." Bedivere hummed slightly sarcastically, "It took me so long to take the child for a physical examination, I thought something big had happened."
"It's not a serious problem. But after another physical examination, we confirmed that some of the organs in the child's body have abnormal aging."
"aging?"
"It's okay, it's not a big problem. At least it won't affect his current and future life." Constantine added, "It's just that a child's liver ages like a middle-aged person. It's a bit puzzling."
"The liver...is the organ that detoxifies the body, right? Aging is due to constant overload? For example...he often takes poison? Is it caused by living in the slums?"
"It's unclear. We can't draw a conclusion based on the current information." Constantine replied in a low voice: "But His Majesty King Arthur was very angry when he found out about it."
"Humph." Bedivere hummed thoughtfully.
"One more thing," Constantine changed the topic: "I asked the kid, and he said that his recent meals were all French fries and the like?"
"Uh, is there a problem?"
"Eating too much greasy food will only increase the burden on the liver." Constantine seemed to have started preaching mode: "I know you didn't know about the problem of the child's liver before. But from now on, please take good care of his daily life.
For meals, don’t let him touch fried and greasy food, okay?”
"So his aging liver can recover?"
"A child's self-recovery ability is much better than that of adults. Yes, I believe his condition will gradually improve, as long as you don't let his condition worsen."
"Okay." Bedivere said with a long face, beginning to find Constantine annoying, just like most doctors he knew.
At this moment, the ship's artificial intelligence navigation system said: "Captain, a transport boat has been detected approaching."
"I'll go pick them up." Bediwell replied, thinking that Constantine's medical team was coming. Then he happily cut off communication with Doctor Constantine, thinking that he no longer had to listen to the other party's lectures.
Three minutes later, when Bediwell arrived on the deck of the Dawn, the transport boat not far away had already approached and was anchored on the deck.
"Hey, Uncle Wolf." Kate got off the small transport boat accompanied by two medical personnel and said as soon as they met: "I heard that there is another child on the boat. Is it true?"
"Well, it's true." Bedivere thought of the leopard boy Hal at that moment, but the next moment Hal's stand-in, the image of the expressionless Karl, appeared in Bedivere's mind.
.
"Can we play with him? Obert has been a little too clingy recently. I'm the only one dealing with him all day long. I'm so tired." Kate complained: "It's time for him to focus on the other person."
It’s on the child.”
"I believe he will." Bedivere replied casually. Thinking of how the naughty tiger boy Obert might "warmly entertain" Karl who refused to fight back and scolded him, the werewolf youth felt very uneasy.
.
But maybe things are not as bad as he imagined? Maybe the little tiger's liveliness will stir up the atmosphere and crack the indestructible barrier in Carl's heart? Although they are indeed using Carl as a tool now to make the child
Becoming Hal's substitute. But as an outsider, Bedivere still hopes that the child can get better, at least learn to speak, and not close himself all his life.
But is that kind of thing really possible?
"Meow."
Just as Bedivere was thinking and accompanying Kate into the cabin, a cat meow interrupted his thoughts.
"What?" He turned to look at the source of the meow, thinking that Kate had brought a stray cat from outside into the boat without permission. But he didn't expect that Kate was actually just holding his own black cat, Xiao Hei.
"What's wrong, Uncle Wolf?"
Bedivere's expression suddenly changed, and he felt something was terribly wrong: "When did you... take Xiao Hei with you?"
"Huh? I always take it with me when I go out for a physical examination." Kate replied while stroking Xiao Hei's cat head with her hand: "Didn't they detect parasites in Xiao Hei's body before? The doctors prescribed detoxification for him.
I have always fed him the insecticide on time and in the right amount! I thought that the parasites should have been eliminated after so many days, so I took Xiao Hei to the ship in the Britannia during the physical examination and let the doctors give it to him.
Xiao Hei is back for follow-up consultation. Now he is very healthy and there is not a single parasite left in his body!"
"If you have been carrying Xiao Hei with you during this period, then..." Bediwell's face became more and more ugly: "Where did the cat that Obert was playing with just now come from?
of?!"
Realizing that something was wrong, Bedivere began to run and shouted at the same time: "Kate, follow me!"
"Wait, don't run so fast, Uncle Wolf!" Kate chased after him, but in fact he couldn't catch up with Bedivere at all.
At the same time, in the common room of Shachuan.
"Hey, little tiger!" Palamedes happened to bring Karl, disguised as Hal, over to greet Obert.
"Hey, Uncle Black Panther!" Obert waved in response, while his other hand kept teasing the cat.
"Look what I brought you? A new playmate!" Palamedes said in a dramatic tone, stepping aside half way. Karl, standing behind him, was exposed to the sight of the tiger boy.
among.
"Wow, little black panther!" The tiger boy came over excitedly and looked at the "leopard boy" up close. "Wow, so cute! Is this Uncle Black Panther's child, Meow?"
"Well," Palamedes said without actually admitting anything, "this is Karl. Can you be friends with him and play together?"
"Of course!" The tiger boy waggled his tail, "Of course, the more playmates the better! I am worried that I can't find anyone to play with me!"
Karl looked at Obert expressionlessly.
"That's good." Paramedis hummed, "This kid is relatively introverted...and can't speak. But don't worry about it. Whatever you want to play, just bring him to play with you. Ahem.
...(He turned to look at Karl) Karl, you have to be good and don't make trouble when you play with Obert, you know?"
Karl nodded. This golem was actually very honest, so it was impossible for him to cause trouble. What Paramedis really meant was that Karl should play his role well and not let the fact that he was a golem be exposed.
However, he also knew that things would not always go so smoothly. No matter how innocent the kid Obert was, if he played with Karl a lot, he would always realize that he was not an ordinary child. In fact, as long as through physical contact, Obert
It’s easy to notice that what Carl has on him is just an extremely clever optical camouflage. Carl’s body is still that of a wooden golem. Under the seemingly furry arms, it’s actually hard wood. It’s probably going to wear out if touched.
.
However, there was no help. At this time, Obert had hugged Karl and kept rubbing his face against Karl's face. Logically speaking, Obert should be able to feel that he was hugging a hard wooden man.
It was obvious that something was wrong. But the slow little tiger didn't feel strange at all and kept rubbing it there.
"Wow, so cute, so cute, so cute! Just like a stuffed toy!" Obert exclaimed excitedly, unwilling to let go of Karl for a moment: "How about we sleep together tonight, meow? Fluffy!"
Terrible lines.
And why did you just give the child a nickname? This little tiger is really familiar with it.
Only then did Palamedes realize that all his worries were unnecessary, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Be careful!" Bediwell also came running at full speed from the end of the corridor in the distance. (To be continued)
