The gem market is characterized by cheap prices. Ke Xia walked out of the store and walked around the market with his guards, such as rough stones cut on the spot, booths for on-site processing and carving, those gem buttons for wholesale and retail, Gem ornaments and so on, the guards were very happy and spent a lot of money, while Shao Jun stood in front of the rough stone cutting booth and watched with interest as those people cut out the gemstones, threw them into special machines for polishing and polishing, and then began to carve by hand. , and finally entrusted a gem that shines brightly.

Seeing his curious look as if he had never seen anything before, Ke Xia generously led them to stay for an afternoon before returning to the rose garden.

For several days in a row, Ke Xia didn't do anything, except to occasionally attend banquets organized by the local nobles, and at other times he just wandered around the city with the guards, visited all the famous scenic spots and markets, and visited nearby The places of interest and historical sites have also been walked for a round, it seems like a noble young master who travels around the mountains and rivers on business.

The magistrate saw nothing but the information about the White Bird Society that he handed in for the first time, and then saw the prince leisurely taking his guards to visit the mountains and rivers every day, so he understood it. No matter what the reason is, the prince probably didn't want to investigate this matter seriously, so he worked harder to flatter him. Today he invited the prince to see a novel scenery, and tomorrow he gave the prince some fun little pets.

Thanks to the prince, the guards were even more popular. After playing enough in Yueyao City, they almost walked around all over the place. Even Shao Jun saw a few cute and light machine simulations in the rose garden. milk dog.Shao Jun liked it very much, and played with it for a while, but the other guards didn't like it, and left in disgust, only Shao Jun took the trouble to play the game of picking bones and chasing balls with the little milk dog.

There are rose trees everywhere in the rose garden, with roses of various colors blooming one tree after another, and the flowers are clustered and very beautiful.Shao Jun watched the little milk dogs kick a small ball into a rose maze made of rose branches and rose bushes, and the little milk dogs rushed in with a baby voice, Shao Jun was a little scared The dogs couldn't get out, so they followed in. After wandering around in the maze for a while, he finally found a small ball in a rose arch hole. He picked up the small ball, and suddenly saw several little milk dogs stopped. He made a move, his body was stiff and motionless.

He was startled.

A little milk dog raised its head and said to Shao Jun, "Du Yin? Are you Du Yin?"

Shao Jun opened his eyes wide, the dog can speak human language!

Seeing his expression, the little dog hurriedly said: "I am Luo Dan. I connected to it in a hurry through Skynet. It will be invalid soon. The empire will not be able to pass. There are too many surveillance gateways on Skynet, and I don't have much time. In short, Hua Jianfeng was in a coma, and President Onegin found me to treat him. I connected his spiritual power to Skynet, and asked Estin to help him read his memory. Knowing your existence, you may It's because the mental body is damaged, and you don't have inherited memory. You don't remember me, but remember, if you want to know everything and recall everything, you can connect to Skynet! As long as you connect to Skynet, you will know everything! Believe me , quickly find a Skynet connection, and we will find a way to return the memory to you!"

The puppy opened its mouth and spat out a metal magnetic clasp: "This can destroy the collar on the clone's neck, making it impossible for others to locate and control you. The empire is very dangerous, so be careful."

Shao Jun's pupils contracted extremely, and the puppy's eyeballs had dimmed rapidly, froze for a while, and then flashed again, like a mechanical puppy sticking out its tongue to lick the ball in his hand.

Filled with doubts, Shao Jun picked up the magnetic clasp on the ground and held it in his palm, and touched the collar around his neck with his backhand. Who is Du Yin?Who is Rodin?And Huajianfeng?What does that have to do with Captain Wine and Captain Qin?Who is Estin?What is Skynet?memory?I have memory?Am I... not a replicant?This circle controls me?

He suddenly remembered the disobedient replicants he had seen in those transparent grids, clutching their necks and twitching and falling down. At that time, he didn't understand what happened.

He sat in the rose arch, surrounded by the fragrant and velvety roses, the sunset was so beautiful, he fell into the confusion of philosophical thoughts, who am I, what am I?Where am I from?

A few bionic robot puppies sat obediently in line beside his legs, sticking out their tongues, waiting for him to throw the ball.

He was confused for a while, and was about to get up and ask his most trusted prince, but at this moment, a voice came from outside the rose arch: "Where is Shao Jun?"

It was Prince Ke Xia!Shao Jun rolled his eyes, and was about to respond with a smile, when Hua Jianjiu was already replying: "After he came out, he removed his personal surveillance as you asked, but just now I saw him talking to those robot dogs in the front yard. Playing, I think I really like it."

Monitor with you?Shao Jun was taken aback, but Ke Xia had already said: "I'm afraid the enemy has plotted against him when he comes out this time. If he has a body monitor on him, the other party can easily find out, and they will be wary of us instead. Why don't we act like we trust and love him? Let the other party think that I really trust and love him, so that they will give him further instructions. After all, looking at him now, it is very likely that he has been deeply hypnotized and all memories have been washed away. Only people who are not in danger can approach me. If I guess correctly, the enemy will return the memory to Shao Jun at an appropriate time, and then let him carry out the mission."

Hua Jianjiu hesitated for a while and said, "Shao Jun... is also a poor man." After all, those close fights were real, and that kind of innocence, like jade in the rough, made people unable to bear to regard him as a man with a heart. malicious people.

Ke Xia sneered: "Don't be fooled by his innocence. Babies born without memory are ignorant and innocent. But look at his skills, he has no memory, just relying on instinct , can kill ferocious beasts and mutant gene clones. Once the memory is restored, he must be a well-trained killer with amazing skills. Who knows how many people's blood is flowing on his hands? Maybe he is a killer who kills without blinking an eye, maybe He's a smooth-talking liar, maybe he's a deep person who plays with other people's feelings and scheming, who knows?"

"Even if I don't rely on the mecha, I'm not sure I can beat him in single combat. He has excellent physical fitness and combat response. But their plot should be bigger, probably not just to kill me, Qian Xin Wanku tricked me back to the empire, and specially arranged for such a clone to gain my trust and favor. There should be a bigger conspiracy, but there is no doubt that the enemy is in the unknown, and we can only wait for their next step , Shao Jun is the only breakthrough, we can only wait for him to recover his memory, and then..."

He said coldly: "I will capture him and let him spit out everything he knows, so that he will regret it forever and come to me." Especially imitating Du Yin is unforgivable.

Hua Jianjiu sighed: "I just received the information that President Onegin found the former researcher named Rodin. At present, the patriarch has awakened and received mental soothing treatment, but the researcher also reminded him, because he His mental power has been severely injured, but it is not completely compatible with his new brain. It is recommended not to force recall again, so as to avoid signs of mental instability or even mental breakdown. Feng Shao is still recuperating now, and only sent A message to remind us, and then that Rodin researcher mysteriously disappeared again after Feng Shao woke up, and he can't be found anywhere, you know the power of the Onegin family, even he can't find it..."

Ke Xia whispered: "Our enemy is too powerful, we have to be careful, go back, what's for dinner?"

Hua Jian Jiu said: "The kitchen made egg tarts according to your order, Shao Jun likes to eat that."

Ke Xia said: "It's good, let him eat with me. Watching him eat really improves my appetite."

Hua Jianjiu smiled: "Yueyao City's special food is worth tasting, and the kitchen cooks it for Shao Jun every day according to your instructions."

Ke Xia laughed and said, "Let him eat more, after he recovers his memory, he might not be able to eat any more."

The voice faded away.

Shao Jun never thought that he could react so quickly. Even though his brain was completely confused by receiving too much information, he still picked up those little puppies very neatly and quickly, rolling and crawling through the roses. The maze rolled the ball into the lake in the center of the rose garden without hesitation, and then the little puppies howled excitedly like arrows, scrambling to chase the ball into the lake.

Shao Jun jumped into the water, picked up the puppies one by one, swam from the center of the lake to the other side, and stood in the shallow water, perfectly showing the guards on the other side of the lake who were patrolling. When he arrived at **, he laughed and joked: "Baby Jun! What are you doing!"

"That puppy is a robot dog! It won't die even if it falls into the water! What are you going to do to save them?"

"Hahaha! Look at you, you look like a suckling dog!"

"Baby Jun, is it fun in the water?"

The guards yelled and laughed, and soon Ke Xia and Hua Jianjiu sat down not far away. Ke Xia saw Shao who was standing in the water and hugged the little milk dog with his pink tongue sticking out. Jun, his whole body was soaked in clothes and pants, and his dark eyes were also wet like innocent little animals. He couldn't help laughing: "Come up soon? Be careful of catching a cold."

Shao Jun looked at him, blinking his eyes vigorously, suddenly he was a little thankful that he got out of the water, his face was wet, otherwise the prince would have noticed that he had cried.

The guards had already pulled him ashore, put the puppies back on the grass, and wiped the water for him in a hurry. Shao Jun watched them smile so sincerely, and wiped his hair so earnestly. I thought to myself: Are they acting like the prince?

Does everything that is good to me come from acting?

Everyone is waiting for him to recover his memory and then arrest him?Shackled and put in an interrogation room for torture like those prisoners?

His Royal Highness—will he kill himself too?Or was it like the butlers he'd seen torturing replicants?Locked up, hung up, and beaten with a whip, the blood flowed all over the ground, and the replicants would only cry out in mourning, and then gradually fell silent, hanging like a dead body.

I can't let anyone see the difference, just like hiding in those copying crowds, he has to be careful, be careful, be careful, because if he makes a wrong step, what awaits him is a situation more terrible than death.

The familiar vigilant instinct of the body made his whole body tense, and Konoe said: "Oh, don't make trouble, really hurry up and take Baby Jun back to the room and take a hot bath, see that all the goosebumps have risen and are still shaking, wait You're going to get sick, and the water is pretty cold."

Shao Jun was numbly taken back to the room by them, turned on the hot water to rinse off, dried, and changed into dry clothes, and then was called by Huajian Wine to accompany Prince Ke Xia for dinner.

In order to conceal his strangeness, Shao Jun worked hard to maintain the same amount of food as every day, although he didn't know what he ate every bite, those delicious food entered his stomach, and then fell heavily, he His stomach was always tight, even so, he still ate almost all the food on the table.

Ke Xia looked at him with great satisfaction and doting and smiled: "Are you full? Is it enough? Do you want more?"

Shao Jun shook his head. Ke Xia had already gotten used to his quiet expression, so he took the drink at hand and filled the crystal cup for him himself: "This is Luyao City's special drink, reed potato juice. You should try it too. It tastes very good, yes. The body is also very good."

Even though he was full from eating, Shao Jun still drank all the reed potato juice that Ke Xia poured himself, and then Ke Xia took him by the hand and went out for a walk in the garden: "The moonlight is really good tonight, We have almost played Moonlight City, and our next stop is Fanxing City, which is also very fun—is it cold? Why are you shivering? Your hands are too cold."

Shao Jun exhausted his short acting skills of copying human life for more than a month, and gave Prince Ke Xia a smile.

Ke Xia could still see that his lips were trembling slightly: "Forget it, are you really catching a cold, go back to your room and rest."

Shao Jun saluted and returned to the room as before.

The food that has not been able to be digested is like a lead in the stomach, burning hot. Shao Jun tossed and turned on the bed for a long time and could not fall asleep. He felt that his body was extremely hot. He took out the blue gemstone from under the pillow and stuck it on his burning hot Feeling the icy chill brought by the expensive sea-blue gemstone on his cheek, he was shivering all over, but he didn’t feel hot anymore, he just felt very cold. He wrapped the quilt tightly and wrapped the sea-blue gemstone The gem was held tightly in his hand.

This night was full of nightmares. In the hot and cold, Shao Jun seemed to be hanging in the crystal cage in a daze. Everyone was looking at him coldly, Yuri, Polly, Huajianjiu, Huajian... Jianqin, Prince Ke Xia is sitting on a high throne, his eyes are full of ice.

Whip after whip fell on him, whispers surrounded him, killer!Despicable!liar!

He was shaking and crying, but he in the dream didn't explain a single word.

At dawn, Shao Jun who had a high fever was finally discovered by the guards, and hurriedly invited a doctor to give him a fever-reducing injection. Ke Xia came to visit him in person, and reached out to touch his sweaty forehead. He smiled and said: "Poor baby Jun, you are such a poor little boy, just to save a few puppies, you should rest well for two days, you will be fine, and you will recover soon."

Shao Jun opened his eyes to look at his smiling blue eyes, and clenched the blue gem tightly with his hand under the quilt. Why didn't he realize that in those blue eyes that always smiled and looked kindly, there was always What about the coldness like ice?

Ke Xia fed Shao Jun the medicine himself, and gently wiped the medicine on the collar around his neck. Shao Jun touched the collar with his backhand: "It's a bit tight, I can't breathe." Then he made a gesture to lift the collar, Ke Xia He stretched out his hand to hold his hand and said with a smile: "Little poor, you can't take it off, you lie down, adjust your breathing slowly, don't get excited, you won't be short of breath."

He thoughtfully covered him with a quilt: "Take a good rest." Then he took the guards and left. Before leaving, he told the guards to take good care of him, not to disturb him, and let him lie down and rest in peace.

The medicine is good medicine. Shao Jun was originally in good health. After sleeping, he got up and the fever quickly subsided, but he still huddled under the blanket and fell asleep listlessly. He didn't want to eat anything. He didn't force him, just let him sleep and rest.

Ke Xia visited him again, and saw that he was still asleep, his pale face with long brows furrowed, his tightly closed eyes with particularly long black eyelashes, and a few strands of sweaty hair sticking to his forehead. He looked weak and extremely childish, and a little funny, so he quietly left without waking him up.

The next morning, when the follow-up doctor came, the guards discovered that Baby Jun, who had been resting quietly on the bed, had disappeared.
