Professor, your turtle!

The lottery box began to rotate at a slow speed, and the balls scrambled to roll up and down. The speed became faster and faster, almost blurring into a gorgeous halo.

About half a minute passed, and there was only a light click, and a small blue ball rolled out, slowly condensing into substance.

Ji Fan was well aware of his luck in being a non-chief, so he had no hope at all, so he picked it up and took a look.

Hey, it's not the worst third prize!

He held the ball up to his eyes, only to see "Second Prize" written on the front and "1-Day Out Ticket" on the back.

Immediately afterwards, the little blue ball turned into a spot of light and disappeared, and a paper coupon fell lightly and was held in his hand.

[Props: 1-day outing ticket]

[Function: After use, the owner's will can be stored in "Tama Gezi" and carried with you. 】

[Remarks: Dear player, let’s travel the world with Tama~]

【Term: 24h】

[Use (gray): Favorability has not reached 40, and it cannot be opened temporarily. 】

Ji Fan: "!!!" After reading carefully, he realized that this seems to be a very good thing.

Once the coupon is used, Fu Mingyuan's consciousness will connect with the pet egg, that is to say, Ji Fan can take him away from the scientific research station and temporarily return to the normal human world.

Could there be a better gift than this for Mr. Fu, who is increasingly depressed due to social isolation?

Although the favorability degree is not up to the standard for the time being, after these days of getting along, the favorability degree, which was originally only 9 points, has soared to 26. If it is raised to 40, it will only take a few days.

Ji Fan solemnly collected the paper coupons - he really had to think about when to use this reward, and where to take people to play at that time.

Maybe you can try to discuss it with Mr. Fu first?Speaking of which, he has never asked about the other party's hobbies.

Ji Fan was a little distracted. Every time he saw Fu Mingyuan, he would always keep his books in his hands, leaning against the bed or the table, and his eyes could not be separated from his few books.

Maybe... this is his hobby?

No, not right either.There is a lack of electricity and internet connection in the scientific research station, and there are no better entertainment options besides reading books.

When it comes to entertainment, Ji Fanhua pulled back to the ordinary mall, looked at the set of [two-player board games] that claimed to be able to link with the real world, and was a little moved.

Maybe... He shouldn't have saved the 500 beans in the first place, oh no, it should be 499 beans after the discount.

After all, he is not in the space most of the time. Mr. Fu doesn't say it on the surface, but he is still very lonely in reality, right?

If you buy it, even if he can't come back for a while, you can change the way to make the other party happy.

Should I buy it or not?Ji Fan did the math, he still has about 300 beans left on hand, and he can make 500 beans by making two papers in a while. After all, the price doesn't seem too expensive...

He was itchy.

At this moment, Ji Fan finally fell into the trap of the krypton gold game.On the one hand, thinking of the lonely villain hidden under Fu Mingyuan's haughty face, he couldn't restrain his desire to consume at all; on the other hand, the long-term large expenditure has already subtly distorted his consumption view.

——In the past, it took a long time to spend 100 beans, but now you can spend 500 without changing your face.

How cunning, Ji Fan thought, fortunately the real "Tama Gezi" cannot be consumed online, otherwise, how much of the elementary school students' lucky money would be wasted?

He closed the panel and forced himself not to look at it.

After closing the mall, he roughly sorted out several side tasks. Among them, the progress bar of the breeding task of "Large Shrimp Farmer" has advanced to 85%.

After the initial difficult period of reproduction, the number of krill increased steadily in a geometric progression, and in the later period, it completely exploded.

The box is densely packed with Antarctic krill, which might be frightening for trypophobia sufferers.

But Ji Fan was used to seeing it, so he didn't think much of it.However, watching the originally sparse population grow and grow, a sense of accomplishment flashed in his heart—these are all cubs he raised.

Ji Fan supported the glass surface with one hand, and the krill inside seemed to recognize him, and squeezed close to his finger to please him.

The giant krill population is also a small society that bullies the weak. Generally speaking, the fluorescent spots on the forehead of the strong krill are also particularly bright.

They violently squeezed away the thin shrimps and monopolized the "treasure of geomantic omen" near Ji Fan's fingers. In order to compete for favor, they occasionally stretched out six pairs of transparent front legs to pinch each other.

The last ones left are the strongest and brightest krill.

Because of this, the place where Ji Fan's finger touches always looks particularly bright.Move your finger, and the shrimp will swim along with it, drawing a beautiful meteor-shaped trace.

- They seem to like me very much.

Ji Fan couldn't help laughing, let go of his finger, opened the water inlet valve on the side, and completed today's water change task.

On the other side of the incubator is a fertile "melon field".

Ji Fan came prepared this time. He just checked the information, and the planting cycle of lettuce is generally 90 to 100 days. However, since the system can even double the speed of krill’s reproduction cycle, the lettuce may not be so mature. Long.

In theory, when growing lettuce, the seedlings should be transplanted into the soil after emergence.But obviously there is no such condition right now, so we can only sow seeds directly.

The impact on the yield is not big, but, in this way, there are strict requirements on the planting density.

Referring to the notes, Ji Fan carefully divided the border into good areas, and only two seeds could be planted per centimeter.

Finally, he buried the last lettuce seed in the ground, adjusted the pH of the soil, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The planting task of "Melon Eaters" has been advanced by 20%, and the "Sowing" column has been ticked, and 100 Diligent Beans will be rewarded in stages.

After experiencing so many ups and downs, Ji Fan is no longer the Ji Fan he was back then, what is 100 beans?Can't even afford a bag of broken potatoes!

He moaned and despised the system's stingy behavior, and reluctantly accepted this reward, which was better than nothing.

After he finally finished everything and finished two sets of papers, it was time to leave again.

What was different from before was that this time when he thought of leaving poor Mr. Fu alone, he felt a little bit reluctant.

Ji Fan poked his head out secretly, trying to say goodbye to the other party through the glass.

Unexpectedly, when he opened his eyes, he was no longer in the water tank!

There is a warm bedside lamp on the turtle's back, and a soft nest under its belly.Ji Fan turned his head, and was surprised to find that he was lying on the small pillow towel at the head of the bed.

Fu Mingyuan built a nest for him.The pillow covers were folded squarely, not as soft as the pillows, but very warm.

Outside, the blizzard came as expected, the light was blocked by the haze that covered the sky, and the wind roared like ten thousand horses galloping.However, with the warm yellow bedside lamp on in the small room, it looks even more cozy.

Ji Fan turned his head and saw Fu Mingyuan nestled on the bedside, holding a book as usual.

He really likes reading, Ji Fan thought to himself, maybe we should take him to the library for a walk?No, you can't be so hasty. After all, there is only one precious travel ticket, so you have to use it wisely.

The book Fu Mingyuan read today is a bit special, and it is different from the previous tomes of academic books.It's thin, like only a few dozen pages, and the back cover is a brightly colored hand-drawn crayon illustration with no name in sight.

story book?Ji Fan looked around.Does Mr. Fu actually like storybooks?

Seeing that he was awake, Fu Mingyuan threw the book aside, and naturally raised his hand to scratch the back of the little turtle's neck.

The book slid under the quilt, and the colorful cover disappeared.Ji Fan was a little anxious, but his neck was pinched|handled, and he couldn't sneak in to see what happened.

Having said that, being pinched on the neck is really comfortable.Dizzy and dizzy enjoying the massage service, Ji Fan narrowed his eyes comfortably, his four short legs went limp, and forgot about that book for the time being.

"Are you leaving?" Fu Mingyuan said.

The little turtle tilted its head and rubbed against his palm, indicating that it was right.

Fu Mingyuan didn't know what to think of, his eyes flickered, and he subconsciously hummed an unfamiliar tune in his throat.

There were only two sentences, and when Ji Fan turned his head, he fell silent.The little turtle scratched his palm curiously, as if asking, "What did you say?"

Fu Mingyuan spread out his palms and let him crawl around to play, and said casually: "Do you know the little prince and his rose?"

"?"

"Once upon a time there was a little prince who raised a very proud rose on his planet and pampered her day and night. But soon, the little prince had to leave. The arrogant rose finally lowered her head and said to him..."

What did you say?Ji Fan raised his head, looked at him with wide eyes, and scratched his soft palm nervously.

Fu Mingyuan was tickled by his little paw, so he raised the turtle to his eyes and repeated softly: "She said... Va, maintainantva-t'en."

Although he read very slowly, Ji Fan still didn't understand at all.

Are you kidding me?He was a little dissatisfied, and angrily grabbed the tip of the other's little finger.

Fu Mingyuan was amused, and a smile appeared on his face.He suppressed a smile and explained calmly: "Well, it means 'if you want to go, go quickly'."

Ji Fan: "..." Why is this person like this!Fortunately, he still wants to save beans to exchange for interactive products to make him happy.

What little prince and rose, clearly meant to drive him away!

When Ji Fan got angry, he retracted into the turtle shell and refused to come out.

In fact, he had already bought the "two-player board game set", but since this guy is so ungrateful, he might as well tell him next time.

After tidying up the fields and breeding boxes, Ji Fan logged out of the space.

Lying on the small single bed, he opened his eyes. The walls of the room were monotonous white, the bed sheets were dark gray checks, lonely, and the color scheme was depressing. It reminded people of the cozy hut in the center of the snowstorm.

Obviously there is a shortage of food and clothing over there, and the room in front of me is not short of anything, but...

Ji Fanping lay in a daze, thinking sullenly, if... if only he didn't have to leave.

—You are a brave man.

The man's gentle voice suddenly flashed by his ears, Ji Fan opened his eyes slightly, and suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Once, his protective shell was a self-enclosed world; now, it has become a secret base inside the turtle shell.

How long is he going to hide in these "turtle shells"?Can the "turtle shell" protect him for a lifetime?

——Obviously Mr. Fu has praised you like that...how can you just think of escaping?

Ji Fan was in a mess, at this moment, the pet egg rolled to his hand, flickering, emitting a faint light, as if to comfort him: I am always here.

Ji Fan picked it up and saw that a new "Play Chess" button had appeared on the edge of the screen.

【Checkers, Chinese Chess, Go, Chess.please choose_____】

Seeing the chess game, Ji Fan's attention was diverted, and his troubles seemed to be far away from him.He put on his house slippers, sat upright by the bed, and tried to click on the "Chinese Chess" he was most familiar with.

In the next second, the electronic screen was fully supported by a huge chessboard.

This is the so-called "interactive at any time"?Ji Fan was stunned, and tried to launch the "head shot".Within a second, Xiang conveniently responded with "screen horse".

The chess player... is Mr. Fu?Could it be that he will always stay at that end of the screen?Thinking of this, Ji Fan became excited again, got up and brushed his teeth, while playing chess distractedly.

Downstairs in the restaurant, Chen Youqing was sitting at the table drinking coffee, seeing his son rushing downstairs in a hurry, he couldn't help but take a second look in surprise.

Soon, she regained her serious attitude, and began to preach in the usual way: "About the next monthly exam, you..."

"I will try my best." Ji Fan said hurriedly, interrupting her for the first time.

Immediately afterwards, he ran out the door like a whirlwind.Chen Youqing opened her mouth half-open in surprise, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

With the bread in his mouth, Ji Fan just walked out of the yard, he couldn't wait to take out the pet eggs, and continued the game.

He had thought that this game would at least go down to school.Unexpectedly, before reaching the corner of the street, the opponent ended the fight cleanly.

What's even more embarrassing is that the "long test" time in the chess game is basically spent on him. As long as he makes a move, the opponent's thinking time will not exceed half a minute at most.

Ji Fan: "..." Hey, isn't this really a computer?

However, the facts are irrefutable, he was indeed brutalized by Fu Mingyuan on the other side of the screen.

Ji Fan stared at the "YouLose" scrolling on the screen and the image of the cheering villain, wanting to sneak in and grab the other's smug face.

Look at the mood value again, good guy, it has risen a lot.It can be seen that Mr. Fu's tail is almost up to the sky.

Perhaps, in Fu Mingyuan's list of hobbies, in addition to reading, he also has to add a line of chess?

["Tuo Ma" sent an invitation to play chess, do you accept it?Accept/Reject]

Ji Fan became more and more dissatisfied: "It's okay to be secretly proud, but this is actually addictive?"

——He is not a masochist, the gap in strength is huge, and he is eager to be hanged and beaten.Ji Fan was about to resolutely refuse, when Xu Haifan strolled over not far away, and saw the pet egg in his hand.

"Afan?" Xu Haifan approached, "How about it, is this fun?"

Before Ji Fan could answer, he heard the other party say "Huh".

"I'll go, is the first generation so smart? And AI playing chess?" Xu Haifan became excited, "Let me see, let me see!"

Ji Fan subconsciously withdrew his hand: "This, this is quite difficult..."

"Hey, Dad has never met an opponent in chess, okay! Even a computer is the same." Xu Haifan said boldly, "Don't worry, you forgot what my brother's name is in the chess club? People call him 'little prince who wins all battles'!" He patted Patting his chest, "Leave it to me, I guarantee you will win."

Ji Fan: "..." He had an inexplicable premonition that Xu Haifan's undefeated golden body might end here.

While speaking, Xu Haifan had already snatched the pet egg, and chose "Go" carelessly.

Ji Fan: "You..."

Xu Haifan didn't listen to him at all, and pressed a few buttons back and forth: "Is it going to start directly? Wow, will there be a reward for winning? Can you connect to the Internet..."

Ji Fan swallowed the second half of the sentence, and silently looked at the over-excited Fa Xiao.In fact, he just wanted to say, don't cry when you lose later.
