Chapter 796 - 794: Zelos?

When Old Wang said that, Old Li immediately felt defiant.

"I’m a life science expert. Isn’t it normal that once organisms arrive at my lab, they don’t leave?"

"But there’s only one rabbit."

Old Li was just about to say something, but swallowed his words back.

"Sigh~ that’s indeed a problem."

"Do you guys think that kid did it on purpose? It would have been better if they sent one more."

"Alright, we’ve seen enough. Let’s go out to discuss and make room for the young ones, they still haven’t got a close look yet."

In the lounge, steaming hot tea was pouring, and outside, it was pouring rain.

Unfortunately, we can’t hear the rain outside. The soundproof glass blocked most of the outside noise.

"Old Wang, I heard you’ve recently participated in some secret research?"

Old Wang chuckled nonchalantly, "Who did you hear it from? There’s no such thing. If I were really involved in secret research, how would I have the time to come here to see a rabbit and leisurely have tea with you guys."

"That’s true."

...

Under the night sky, after a day of discussion, without dissection, no conclusion could be drawn.

Facing a temporary deadlock, the three professors left the biological laboratory with their respective students.

Less than half an hour after they parted, from the day the cargo ship returned to Blue Star, data information about every possible person Professor Li had come into contact with was consolidated into one place.

Amidst the convoluted information, the disguised spy was immediately unmasked under the AI’s big data analysis.

"Apprehend them."

"Understood!"

A smokeless battle was instantly launched, and caught off guard, the spy couldn’t react in time and was captured red-handed by the National Security Bureau.

Interestingly, just a second before being caught, this guy was sitting in front of a computer building a small website.

Watching the spy’s bewildered face, dumbfounded by the lack of reaction from the alert system, the folks at the Bureau couldn’t help but laugh.

They’ve seen that same expression many times since last year.

"Boss, it’s so easy to catch spies nowadays."

"Be serious. Acting like this will one day lead to disaster. You must always understand that apart from the human brain, everything else is just a tool. You can use tools, but you cannot be captured by them."

The boss suddenly stopped walking, looking at his subordinate with a calm expression.

"Review the records of our predecessors."

Ge You lay sprawled on the sofa, Candy holding Bun, who was released early for good behavior, in her arms.

Perhaps due to the recent experiences, Bun seemed particularly well-behaved today.

Candy was engrossed in her cartoons when the TV screen suddenly went blank.

Startled, Candy exclaimed, "Brother, the TV’s broken."

Zero, who was sitting next to Candy, quietly shifted away, preparing to distance himself from trouble.

Zero knew whether the TV was broken or not.

Putting down the remote, Mo Jingchun quietly watched Candy.

Scratching her head, Candy was confused for a moment before noticing that the shortest hand on the wall clock was pointing to "8".

Realizing where the problem lay, Candy stood up from the sofa...

"Oh! It’s dark, can’t see." Candy frantically winked at Zero, urging him to take her upstairs quickly.

If they didn’t go now, her brother would soon explode.

Zero looked helpless.

Watching the two enter the elevator, Mo Jingchun turned the TV back on.

Finding the movie he hadn’t finished last time, he resumed watching.

Thinking something was still missing, Mo Jingchun put on slippers and went to the storage room for a bottle of cola.

Too bad there weren’t any spicy strips; it would have been perfect to go with them.

Sometimes, a man’s joy is just that simple.

Knowing through the network what the boss was up to, Zero smirked.

"Zero, what’s wrong with your mouth? Did you get shocked?"

"Don’t ask. If you ask, it means I don’t know. Hurry and go shower; the boss might come for room inspection soon."

Hearing this, Candy got anxious immediately.

"Oh my, how annoying."

"Don’t you like going to school?" Zero asked curiously.

Candy replied in surprise, "No way! I was happy in kindergarten. I didn’t have to wake up so early and there was no homework."

"Oh... I get it. You hate homework," Zero suddenly realized.

Frightened, Candy quickly covered Zero’s mouth.

Funny, it didn’t stop Zero from talking at all.

The next moment, Zero’s voice came from everywhere.

"I got it right, didn’t I?"

"Hahaha~"

"Hmph~ Of course, I don’t like doing homework, but..."

Candy hesitated for a moment, but still chose to tell Zero.

"But my brother makes me do it, and he looks happy when I do my homework. For my brother, I am willing to like doing homework."

Such touching words coming from Candy’s mouth surprised Zero.

It also made him feel fortunate.

Fortunate to have a brother who loves his sister in this family, fortunate that even a little sister in this family knows how to be considerate of her brother’s emotions, and most fortunate that everyone in this house treats her as part of the family.

Oh! Not to mention the silly Little Grey, and the chubby yet clever Bun.

At this moment, observing the family from a third-person perspective, the corners of Zero’s mouth lifted slightly.

The boss was secretly watching a movie, and Candy wasn’t in any hurry to sleep, while Zhou Yaling was practicing heroes silently in the training ground.

Although Zhou Yaling’s performance was still not great, she was really putting in effort.

Whenever she played games with everyone else, she didn’t want to drag the team down.

Thinking of this, Zero’s smile deepened.

Perhaps, Zhou Yaling also had a dream of becoming a Wild King.

Unlike many girls, Zhou Yaling didn’t want a Wild King boyfriend; she wanted to become one herself.

This world won’t stop turning for anyone, suddenly, Zero’s thoughts paused.

"Except for Candy,"

Because after the asteroid incident and considering Candy’s past record, Zero found that perhaps Candy wasn’t just lucky, but more like the kind of ultimate technological power humans have always fantasized about - a rule-based weapon!

However, this power manifested quite unpredictably in Candy.

Shaking his head, Zero felt spooked by his own thoughts.

Unless there’s only one possibility: the system integrated with the boss might not be complete.

Most probably, part of it was with the boss, and another part was with Candy.

This seems to be the most likely scenario.

System...

At the same time, the system integrated with Mo Jingchun, surprised, looked towards the third floor, specifically focusing its gaze on Zero.

"Look at this cosmic wonder I found, a newly intelligent artificial source creating 1g of Zelos."

"Truly... the universe is full of wonders."

Absorbing the 1g of Zelos surrounding Zero, the system was quite satisfied.

Even though this amount of Zelos was barely significant, it was better than nothing.

After all, it couldn’t remember how many eras it had gone without resources.
