mother of all races

The precious and endangered star butterfly egg case has shown such a powerful vitality under the hands of a half-hearted botany assistant.

As the one who took care of it, it was hard for Lin Xi not to be relieved by this.

But, of course, there were those in the ship who were concerned about the presence of the egg case.

"You think it's out of dormancy?"

More than ten days later, in the medical room that Lin Xi was quite familiar with, his brother Bryce stared at Lin Xi for a long time with his arms folded, and then asked slowly.

Before this, Lin Xi had just finished complaining to him about the endless and helpless pest plague. By the way, he also mentioned the egg case of the star butterfly.

But upon hearing Bryce's worried question, Lin Xi couldn't help making a grimace in her heart.

He must be too tired to be so dizzy, otherwise he wouldn't have slipped his tongue and told the other party about the egg case of the star butterfly.Based on past experience, Lin Xi could guess what Bryce was worried about even with her eyes closed.

Bryce had always been a little overprotective of him since that accident all those years ago.

Heavy maternal love-this word always makes Lin Xi think of Bryce for some reason.

But no matter what kind of slander he has in his heart, Lin Xi still looks calm on the surface.

He shrugged towards Bryce: "Of course, that bug egg is about to become a tentacle monster now."

The area of ​​Bryce's medical room is not too large. Three therapeutic instruments have already occupied most of the space in the medical room, followed by a small traditional operating room (you can see the sun from the existence of this place. How old is the God), a disinfection room, and another disinfection room, but this space has been transformed into a leisure space where Lin Xi and Bryce are now talking.

Behind Lin Xi is a row of gleaming silver metal storage cabinets, which contain many good things that make Lin Xi salivate, but Bryce keeps a close watch on the password of the storage cabinet, so Lin Xi has never opened it. their attention.

At this moment, Lin Xi is occupying Bryce's expensive weightless task chair, which is not something that the Bryce brothers can afford-Alyssa bought it a few years ago. bought the task chair and gave it to Bryce for his birthday.

Lin Xi lay stretched there, thinking of the relationship between Alisa and Bryce, a faint envy rose in her heart.

Because of the relaxation of his body, he was somewhat absent-minded.

"Moreover, as an egg case, it has to absorb almost one liter of nutrient solution every day, which is not like what a dormant egg should do."

Lin Xi said to Bryce.

"That doesn't sound normal."

Bryce said seriously.

Lin Xi yawned: "Maybe? I'll ask Ando to look at that thing later..."

"You can ask him to take the egg case back. This kind of thing should stay in the laboratory and not in your bedroom."

Bryce repeated his request.

Lin Xi couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Okay, I will, I will go to Ando later—"

He paused, then threw up his hands in a gesture of surrender toward Bryce: "How long are we going to continue this conversation? For God's sake, when will I get my calming gel?" ?”

"I'm still waiting for your blood report before I can judge if I can prescribe you some more gels, oh, don't look at me like that, you're acting like you don't know you're gel dependent Same. Seriously, you should get rid of that egg as soon as possible, I can't believe Professor Ando would do something like this: put an alien egg on your bedside table for you to take care of It? Is this a joke—”

"Dear Bryce, please, please focus on your poor brother who is weak and nervous, instead of full of bug eggs?" Seeing Bryce's face getting worse and worse, Lin Xi I can only forcefully interrupt him, "Also, I've had enough of talking about bugs, really, during this period of time I've been fighting against damn bugs in the greenhouse during the day, and I'm still dreaming about those bugs when I lie in bed at night. Don't talk to me any more. I got the bug, prescribe me some calming gel bars, I promise I won't abuse it again, I just need a little bit of it to help me get a good night's sleep and not have any nightmares - if I go on like this , I will definitely die suddenly!"

Lin Xi shouted at Bryce, with a trace of exhaustion and breakdown that could not be concealed.

Very rarely, this time, almost everything he said about asking Bryce for a calming gel stick turned out to be true.

Ah yes, that's why he's here.

Lin Xi is now facing a bug crisis in her life: the inexhaustible bugs in laboratories and greenhouses during the day, and those hazy and extremely terrifying winter solstice at night.

Every day, when he lay sleepily on his bed and tried to have a good rest, the nightmare followed him like a shadow and surged.

Lin Xi couldn't even remember the last time he fell into a dark and sweet sleep. Now when he mentions sleep, his mind is filled with overwhelming dreams.Even after waking up, the impressions of those nightmares became extremely blurred and thin, but the deep-rooted fear still left a faint imprint in Lin Xi's heart.

If it weren't for the sudden cardiac arrest caused by the sedative gel stick last time, Lin Xi might not have come to the medical room to wait for "official approval" at all-the unlucky bastards of the exploration team have a lot more gel stick quota than him. This kind of scientific research staff is much more generous.

"Well, you do look more haggard than before."

Bryce looked at Lin Xi, nodded after pondering for a moment.

But then, he lowered his head and studied the physical examination about Lin Xi that was just sent.

"Although your physical examination report shows... your physical functions are all normal." Bryce opened the terminal, and all the data about Lin Xi appeared in the air.

Lin Xi looked at the report with a suspicious look on his face.

"It's impossible—did you accidentally put the model data up? I feel like I'm dying every day during this time..."

He asked subconsciously, but didn't wait for Bryce's response.

He turned his head, and was taken aback by the serious look in Bryce's eyes.

"Bryce?" he asked. "Any questions?"

Bryce stared at the data in a daze, and then he came back to his senses after a while.
