[Rebirth] Alien Royalty

"Aww——" Milu howled in pain.

"Sa, Sami!" Lu Xiao bit his tongue, "Quickly let go!"

When Sami let go, Milu held his hand and said angrily, "What are you doing, Sami!"

"I'm protecting Bazel!" Sammy opened his hands to block Lu Xiao, glaring at Milu and said, "You all bully him!"

"What are you talking about?! How can I bully—" Milu said halfway, feeling that he was indeed bullying Bazel these days, but then he became more confident, "He is such a person, what do I love? If you bully him, you can bully him, he deserves it all!"

"You are the bad guy!" Sammy retorted stubbornly, "Where did Bazel hurt you? Didn't he make you stronger?"

Milu stayed for a moment, then retorted: "Did I let him make me stronger? If he accidentally kills me!"

"But if you leave this place now, wouldn't it be easy to recruit a large group of younger brothers with your ability?" Probably influenced by the topic just now, Sami said quietly, "You are already stronger than ordinary people. There are a lot...whether it is transformed into a shapeshifter, or a chip is installed in the head, which one of you is not better than ordinary people?"

"Sami, what kind of brain circuit is this!" Milu said incredulously, "This is not the problem. It is indeed the result that I became stronger, but what about the process?"

"What process is not process?"

"It's just... Do you know how painful the experiment is! There are still many unstable factors, and I will die at any time!" Milu felt that he didn't know how to express it, and became flustered.

"What's wrong with taking a little risk in order to become better!" Sammy was still talking back.

"Sami!" Lu Xiao emphasized his tone and called his name.

The little boy trembled, fell silent, and looked up at Lu Xiao.

Originally, he should be very happy that Sammy could speak for him, but obviously this boy has gotten into a dead end.

It has nothing to do with Milu's mood, but it's not good for Sami to think about it any longer.

Lu Xiao squatted down, without smiling, and said in a serious tone: "Sami, if doing experiments is really such a good thing, then why do you think I didn't do it on myself?"

Sammy froze.

Milu was also stunned.

"I don't do experiments on myself because I want to transfer the risk. This means that I don't want to die. I don't want to die. Do those people who are forced to do experiments by me want to die? Do you think you can risk death in order to become stronger? Take a risk and try it out, this is your current value concept, but I also want to remind you that you take this kind of thinking for granted, and you have no position to say that there is something wrong with people who have experienced it personally. Behavior like mine at the beginning , called 'disregarding human life'—"

"What are you talking about?" Milu interjected.

"..." Lu Xiao put it in a more understandable way, "It's just that I didn't take the lives of those experimental subjects seriously. I didn't treat them as equal beings. In my eyes, those experimental subjects were the same as those at any time. As cheap as a guinea pig you can get rid of, you know?"

Sammy froze his face, stared at him with a pair of round eyes, closed his mouth tightly, and nodded silently.

"The price for the success of the experiment on you may be your mother's death, are you willing to do that?"

Lu Xiao's tone softened, and he patted Sami's head.

Sammy frowned and shook his head.

"This is why people here are angry with me in the past. It's not right for you to accuse them if you don't think about it, or think about it from their perspective."

Lu Xiao thought about it again, and said, "Of course, if you think about it carefully, if you still think it's risky to try once to make yourself stronger, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. But you have to find someone who is the same Cooperate with someone who values ​​your life, you know? Find a good person, not someone like me..."

"But you're a good guy now, aren't you?"

"Uh, yes, of course..."

Sammy smiled: "Isn't that all right?"

Lu Xiao: "??"

Milu: "??"

At this moment, a woman ran over in panic: "Sami, what are you doing here!"

Sammy turned around, and when he saw his mother, he secretly stuck out his tongue, and said to Lu Xiao, "My mother is here, so I'll be leaving first! Goodbye, Bazel!"

"Oh...goodbye." Lu Xiao waved to the back of the little boy.

Seeing that Sammy ran away, Sammy's mother stopped four or five meters away.

She looked away from Sami's back, frowned at Lu Xiao, and said, "Please stay away from my child." After saying that, she turned and left.

Milu glanced at Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao glanced back at him.

What does this look mean?

Milu snorted softly, and said in a strange way: "Why are you so weird?"

Lu Xiao: "..."

***

Because Lu Xiao's shirt was scrapped, and he didn't have any needles and threads on hand, so Li Wei had no choice but to bring him a new dress.

At dinner, four chairs became five.

When Lu Xiao put the last dish on the table, he said expressionlessly: "Please don't bring people in anymore, it's getting crowded here."

"Are you talking to me?" Arnold pointed to himself and said with a smile, "Obviously I was the last one to come."

Levi was sitting upright, opposite him were Arnold who had already started, and Brandy who was wiping the tableware with a handkerchief... How did it become like this?Levi was puzzled, obviously he and Bazel were very low-key.

Sammy, who comes here all day, will find that they understand.But how did Mr. Brandy and Mr. Arnold sit at the same table as them?

He... is under a lot of pressure!

Arnold took a bite of the dish and praised: "Well, it's delicious, maybe everyone should learn how to cook, otherwise it would be so monotonous to eat food all day long."

"Before you came here, weren't you always proud of collecting food packs of all flavors?" Brandy said without the slightest ups and downs.

"Don't you come to my office every time you're hungry, Brandy?" Arnold shot back softly.

Levy: "..."

Lu Xiao: "..."

Sammy: "..."

Brandy adjusted his glasses and glanced at a dish.

It was stir-fried "chicken" nuggets, because Sami liked it so much, now Lu Xiao cooks this for almost every meal.

Brandy picked a piece of sooty bird meat and ate it.

Arnold glanced at him, and also picked up a piece of meat with a fork, looked it up curiously, and put it in his mouth.

The next second—

"Cough, cough, cough!" He covered his mouth and turned sideways, coughing.

"Mr. Arnold!" Levi was startled, "I will pour you a glass of water?"

Arnold coughed desperately, couldn't speak at all, and nodded in embarrassment.

Lu Xiao noticed the slightly raised corners of Brandy's mouth, and was secretly speechless.

This person did it on purpose. He looked serious on the surface, but he was so dark inside that he even dared to trick his own boss... It's really a shame.

But... Arnold is afraid of peppers?

Lu Xiao did put a lot of peppers in it, probably because he cut it into small pieces, Arnold didn't notice?

... Lu Xiao glanced at Arnold, and tried his best to hold back the smile that was on the verge of his mouth.

"Ah——Uncle Arnold is afraid of peppers!" Sammy said with bright eyes, as if he had discovered a new world.

Lu Xiao: "..." He actually said the mocking words he wanted to say with such an innocent expression...

After dinner, Li Wei washed the dishes by the sink, and Lu Xiao wiped the dining table.

Brandy left after eating, while Sammy took the leftovers from the kitchen counter higher than him, and walked carefully to the refrigerator.

Halfway through, the food in his hand was taken, and when he looked up, Arnold, whose nose was still red, smiled at him: "Let me come, Sammy."

Arnold put some leftovers in the refrigerator, turned around and saw Lu Xiao who had finished wiping the dining table hung the rag by the sink, and took off his apron.

The apron is made by Levi, it is very simple, just to keep some oil and water out.

Arnold reminisces about the appearance of the blond man standing in front of the stove cooking just now, and always feels that there is a very unique taste.

But before he figured out what it was like, Lu Xiao turned around and noticed his gaze, and immediately showed a face of "ah, what kind of disgusting expression is that? Don't look at me".

Arnold walked over step by step.

Lu Xiao quickly said: "Then I'll leave Li Wei first, and you should go back to rest early after cleaning up."

"Oh well!"

Lu Xiao turned around and walked out of the kitchen, and the black-haired man quickly followed.

"What is chili?"

"...It's Ai Xiguo!" Lu Xiao said angrily.

"Chili is what your hometown calls Essie fruit?"

"Um……"

Arnold looked at the side face of the other party, and in the blink of an eye, he could see the uncomfortable and awkward expression.

He began to wonder what kind of person was under the skin of the prince of the Shimiya Empire.

Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao.

Arnold recalled the idea that came up before, and suddenly said: "How is your name written in Chinese?"

Lu Xiao paused, turned around and looked at Arnold in surprise.

"Just curious."

Arnold looked at him with deep dark green eyes.

***

Since Arnold wants to know... Lu Xiao has nothing he can't agree to.

After returning to the office, Lu Xiao sat behind the desk and took out a piece of paper and a pen.

And taking advantage of this time, Arnold also moved a small stool next door, and faced Lu Xiao across a desk.

Lu Xiao wrote the word "Lu Xiao" stroke by stroke.

Arnold turned the paper over to his side, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

I didn't expect the font to be so complicated. In comparison, the common language of the Shmya Empire is much simpler.

but……

"This language is indeed not suitable as a code, because it will take too much time, and writing is so complicated, it is difficult for others to learn." He commented.

"..." Lu Xiao said blankly, "You still think that Chinese is a code created by myself?"

"It's just a hypothesis." Arnold spread his hands.

Lu Xiao snorted softly, turned the paper back, and wrote an English word under his name.

Idiot.

"This isn't Chinese, is it?"

"That's right, this is the language of another country on Earth."

"Oh?" Arnold smiled, "What does that mean?"

"This is the translation of your name!" Lu Xiao said solemnly.

"Liar."

"..."

Arnold's eyes are full of jokes: "Most things like names can only be transliterated, not to mention that the language you are writing now is not your mother tongue, no matter what, it is impossible to get it and transliterate it?"

Lu Xiao stared at Arnold, isn't this guy reacting too quickly?

"Tell me, what does this word mean?" Arnold smiled warmly.

"...I forgot." Lu Xiao simply played tricks and turned his head away, "I just suddenly remembered this word and wrote it for you."

Arnold didn't see through the other party, squinting his eyes to appreciate the childish appearance of the other party's cleverness.

Lu Xiao noticed Arnold's expression, and his face became hot for no reason.

Damn, why are you looking at him like that?

Do you know that he is playing tricks on him?

This man... has a surprisingly good temper.

Lu Xiao muttered in his heart, looked at the white paper in his hand, thought for a while, and wrote "Arnold" in Chinese characters.After finishing writing, he hesitated before turning the paper over.

"What is this?" Arnold glanced at it.

"Your name is written in Chinese characters, and the transliteration is almost like this," Lu Xiao pointed to each character with a pen, "'A', 'Nuo', and 'De'."

After reading, Lu Xiao recited Arnold's original pronunciation again to himself, and felt that it was quite similar, so it should be translated like this.The names of the people here are more Western-style.

It just so happens that "Arnold" is also in English, how to spell it...

Lu Xiao tried his best to remember, but still couldn't quite remember, so he had to repeat Arnold's name and spell it by pronunciation.

A node?Uh, impossible, this is almost a pinyin...

Lu Xiao thought hard again.

Anold?

is that so?It should be almost the same... It looks alike.

Lu Xiao pointed to the English word: "Here, this should be the English translation of your name."

Arnold looked down at the two different words on the paper, and a subtle feeling arose in his heart.

All the languages ​​currently discovered by the interstellar society are gathered in his mind, so language is no longer a problem for him.

There were many other things as well... interstellar races, cultures, planets... He knew them all, though he hadn't seen them all.

This was his first contact with something completely unfamiliar.

He followed the pronunciation Lu Xiao taught him, and pronounced his name jerky.After reading it twice, he looked up at Lu Xiao and asked, "Where is 'me'?"

"what?"

"How do you say 'I' in Chinese?"

"Uh..." Lu Xiao lowered his head to write, with cold sweat streaming down his back.

Was it his illusion just now?I always feel that Arnold's eyes light up...

The dark green eyes shone brightly, making them look like wolf eyes, which was very creepy.

The author has something to say: the real English writing method should be Arnold...

I don’t know why I had a dream last night that I raised a lion at home. My mother was scared and peed, and I drove it into the kennel... Big cats are really cute, but in the dream I still feel quite scary OTL
