[Rebirth] Alien Royalty

Chapter 38

Lu Xiao was woken up by Li Wei.

When I woke up, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

Lu Xiao rubbed his eyes in a daze, and sat at the dining table dizzily thinking how he would sleep in this place, thinking about it made him angry!

He kindly made supper for the two brothers, but they ignored him and left after eating? !

It's unbelievable!Is it so hard to wake him up? !That guy Arnold is playing tricks on him again!Karl actually helped that guy too...

"But...cough, Mr. Arnold has washed all the tableware..." Levi pointed to the neatly arranged bowls in the cabinet and said sarcastically.

"Isn't it my duty to wash the dishes after eating? Maybe I have to wash them!" Lu Xiao was furious.

Levi still obediently zippered his mouth.

After Levi turned his back, the rabbit appeared on the dining table, and the voice rang in Lu Xiao's mind: "After you fell asleep yesterday, there seemed to be something wrong with the child, and Arnold took him away directly."

Lu Xiao was taken aback.

"what is the problem?"

"What's the problem?" Li Wei turned around and asked in doubt when he heard Lu Xiao's voice.

"Ah...no, nothing!" Lu Xiao got up and said, "I'll go back to the office to wash my face, and I'll go to the delivery room later."

"Oh, let's see you there then!" Levi bent down to look through the leftovers from last night in the refrigerator.

After walking out of the delivery room, Lu Xiao didn't make a sound, and asked in his mind: "What's wrong with Carl?"

"Not sure, it seems to have lost a lot of hair."

"...hair loss?"

"Well, Arnold's expression looks serious."

How can you lose your hair?Could it be an environmental issue here?Lu Xiao couldn't help feeling worried.

***

The boy sat by the bed, furtively scratched his hair, opened his hands, and there were a lot of strands of hair in his palms.

Luna turned her head and saw this scene, walked over a few steps and grabbed his hand, and said loudly: "Carl, didn't you say you are not allowed to scratch your hair anymore?!"

Carl was taken aback, and whispered: "...but my head hurts."

"It's a little itchy, and it hurts a little, anyway..." Carl hung his head.

Luna put her hands on the boy's head, and gently fiddled with his hair. When she saw the white hair at the root, her whole body froze.

"Luna?" the boy called to her.

"...it's okay," Luna withdrew her hand, her face pale, "it's okay, Carl, just stop messing with your hair, and you don't want to lose more hair, do you?"

"Well, I don't want to," Carl thought for a while, then smiled, "I don't want to be like Milu!"

Luna was taken aback, then pursed her lips and smiled.

"I'll go out for a while, can you lie down and sleep?"

"But this is not a place to live with my brother, I can't sleep." Carl poked the bed under his butt.

"Then close your eyes, you haven't slept well all night, have you?"

"When is brother coming back?" Carl asked, watching her.

"...Brother will be back soon. After you sleep, you will see him when you wake up." Luna said softly.

"Okay then." Carl lay down and closed his eyes.

Luna looked at the boy's sleeping face for a while, then turned and walked out the door with a complicated expression.

When they reached the end of the corridor and opened the door, the three people inside turned around.

Arnold smiled at her and asked, "Is Carl asleep?"

Luna nodded.

"Thank you, Luna."

"Roland, Carl's hair... seems to be turning white," Luna said hoarsely, "What's going on? Is there any way?"

Roland sat in front of the instrument, and on the display in front of him were a lot of data and text that only she and Arnold could understand.

"I did a physical examination for Carl on the day he came, and he was still in good health at that time," Roland's voice was as calm as ever, "but it seems that he is still a 'failure'."

The room was silent for a while.

"Will he age faster?" Brandy asked.

"Maybe, Fitch and I have already contacted them. Carl's initial hair loss also came very suddenly. I'm afraid he will age rapidly by then, and the aging process may be different from ordinary people. After all, he has too much hair on his body. If there are too many genes, if the side effects are superimposed, the changes in the body will also deviate from the normal track."

Luna opened her mouth, but for the first time, she couldn't even say a word.

His throat seemed to be strangled.

She thought of Carl's face, a resemblance to Arnold's.

"So there is no way to stop his aging?" Brandy asked, "My hair is also a side effect of the experiment, and you helped me delay the side effects."

"You also said that it's just a delay. There's no way to stop the side effects," Roland looked at him. "What's more, your side effects are not as strong as Carl's, so you can still use drugs to delay them. There's nothing I can do about Carl's aging. It’s a problem left over from when Bazel first shaped the embryo.”

Brandy looked at the dark-haired man beside him.

Arnold looked down at the lines of data on the display screen, sighed silently after a long time, turned around and said, "I took him back."

"Arnold!" When the man passed by, Luna grabbed his arm.

Luna didn't know what she wanted to say, it was the first time her heart was so confused.

Roland said that there was nothing he could do, and even Arnold sighed. Carl had no cure, and no matter what she said, it would be of no avail.

The boy who had only opened his eyes and truly lived in this world for fifteen days was doomed to die.

But Luna understands that her fear at this time is not just because of this, just as she understands that her care and love for Karl is not just because the other party is a child who successfully woke up from Bazel's experiment.But now she was so confused that she didn't know what to say, she could only look at the black-haired man helplessly.

Arnold looked at her for a few seconds, and said softly, "Luna, I won't die."

Luna pursed her lips tightly and let go of her hand slightly.

"Don't worry, I won't die." Arnold murmured, patted Luna on the shoulder, and walked out of the room.

Only Arnold, Bazel will not let him become a "failure".

Arnold walked to the room where the boy was placed, looked at the boy's sleeping face, leaned forward and pressed a kiss on his forehead, and then gently hugged the boy.

"Let's go back, Carl."

night.

"Since you are so impetuous, let's take a rest today." Rabbit said.

Lu Xiao opened his eyes, but did not take back his strength body, glanced at the clock, frowned and said, "The two of them haven't come yet."

"Are you worried that something happened to that child?"

"Listen to you, something must have happened!"

"Would you like to take a look then?"

Lu Xiao hesitated for a while and said, "Let's see where they are first!"

If something really happened to Carl, he might still be with Roland now.

After searching around the dungeon with his strength body, the image of the rabbit sent to his mind surprised him.

Arnold and Carl are in a room - probably where Arnold lives.Although Arnold is in the office all day, it is not difficult to guess that he will have a separate residence.What surprised Lu Xiao was Karl's appearance!The boy's hair turned white.Although it is not completely white, it is really shocking to become like this in one day.In addition, Lu Xiao felt that there seemed to be wrinkles on Carl's face.

Lu Xiao withdrew his strength body, froze on the sofa for a moment, got up and said, "I'd better go and see them!"

Before going out, I took Fu Rui with me by the way.

This is not the first time for Lu Xiao to enter the living room in the dungeon. He also sat in Levi's room before.Levi's house is very small. When the housing was first allocated, the larger houses were all given up to the women. Levi waited until most of the people were selected before choosing, so his house was only about a few square meters.Li Wei said that if the house was bigger, he would let Lu Xiao live with him directly, but it is obviously unrealistic now.

Arnold's house is on the edge of the dungeon, not a central location. If you say that the main road is equivalent to the center of a city, then the place where Arnold lives is already very remote.

When passing by the window, Lu Xiao and Arnold's eyes met.

So before Lu Xiao walked to the main entrance and knocked, the door opened.

Arnold leaned on the door frame with one hand, and asked with a smile, "Because we haven't had a past, do you feel lonely?"

Lu Xiao was taken aback when he saw his smile. This guy is so calm and relaxed. Could it be that Carl is getting old or something? It's really his eyesight?

Fury barks behind him.

Hearing Fury's cry, there was also the sound of "da da da" footsteps behind Arnold.

"Fry!" Carl yelled crisply, and got out from Arnold's side.

Her half-white hair was pink and fair yesterday, but now her skin has become somewhat withered and yellow, and there are also faint wrinkles on her cheeks.

Seeing Carl's appearance, Lu Xiao opened his eyes wide.

"Carl, bring Fury in," Arnold said.

"Yeah! Come with me, Fury!"

After the child and the big black dog entered the house, there was silence at the door.

Lu Xiao stared at Carl's back and held his breath at some point.

"The expression doesn't have to be so serious, does it?" Arnold said with a chuckle.

"You...what are you talking about?" Lu Xiao found it difficult to speak, "Karl...what's going on?"

"I want to ask you what's going on, this is a 'failure' made by you yourself." Arnold joked.

Lu Xiao suddenly looked up at him.

"Just kidding," Arnold twitched his lips, "I know it has nothing to do with you, but you can't save him this time, right?"

"Help?...Could it be that Karl..."

Just kidding, if he's not mistaken, Arnold and the others brought him here as soon as Carl woke up.In other words, Karl has only passed ten days and is about to die?

"You didn't lie to me, did you? Is there really no way to save him?" Lu Xiao stared at Arnold and asked.

Arnold just smiled and saw that he didn't answer.For the first time, Lu Xiao found a trace of helplessness in his smile.

Arnold is serious.

Lu Xiao swallowed, and asked, "Permanent Behavior...can't you use this this time? Didn't you use that potion to save Sami last time?!"

"This time is different from that time," Arnold calmly explained to Lu Xiao patiently, "The reason why Sammy 'grew up' last time was affected by that medicine. In his body, the effects of that medicine can be completely eliminated. But this time, Carl's condition is a "natural occurrence" phenomenon, but it comes faster than ordinary people. Ordinary people will still suffer from permanent behavioral hormone injections. getting older, and therefore Karl as well."

"Then... I'll go back to sleep first, maybe I can think of other ways after I sleep!" Lu Xiao said.

Although Bazel has been in a deep sleep during this time without any sign of waking up, maybe he can wake Bazel up.

"Lu Xiao..." The rabbit appeared next to him again, "Bazel can't wake up."

"But his consciousness is always there!" Lu Xiao blurted out.

He would check his own soul and Bazel's soul every night.

Bazel's consciousness has always been there, at least it hasn't disappeared yet!

"Who are you talking to?" Arnold suddenly lifted his chin and turned his head away.

Lu Xiao was startled when he met Arnold's gaze, and then he clenched his teeth.

No, he's too tired these days, his mental state has reached its limit, and he'll let his feet slip from time to time!

"Speaking of which, you fell asleep after making us supper yesterday, and I couldn't wake you up no matter what I called," Arnold raised his eyebrows, "What have you been doing these days?"

"...It's just busy with work during the day." Lu Xiao patted his hand away and looked away.

Arnold looked at him for a while and said, "Would you like to come in and sit down?"

"No, I said I'm going back."

"It's not so short of time," Arnold said, "Carl's time is very precious now."

The author has something to say: It’s been so cold these two days...it’s almost like October OTL
